CLASS PROPHECY $ £ It is now in the year 1940 that we find to our surprise hit, Ling, who has become tired of school life and h.„s become census taker for the Government. This is how he found the various members of the cl..ss of '£4 occupied. Ethel Pratt is found sinking with Ling Crosby over the radio, advertising Slngum and Sqwakum Birdseed. Marguerite Hug is seen as a nurse at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Nev York treating 1'ir.s Callihan who is suffering from a nervous breakdown after her many years at Imbler High School. Delmor Fowler was found in Mae West's Apartment. Delmer, like many ore, fell for her line Why don't cha come up'n see me sometime?'1 Keith KcKinnis is found occupied on his chicken farm in California—no wonder '-e miss so many chickens. At last Dick Howell's dream has come true and he was found at a piano in Guy Lombardo's Orchestra, playing Twelfth Street, dag. Harland Pratt is found at Wimbledon, England, representing the United States in the Tennis finals. Clyde Ott. is running a beer parlor in Chicago. A1 Caooue and his gang make their hideout there. Well, well. Max York has become running-mate for Einstien (or was it Professor Wottaschnoszle) in the Scientific Fiesecrch. Elton Frizzell is occupied us the Aaeager of the Knokum and Sokum baseball team from the Fiji Islands. Howard Wilson was found as the star reporter of the Rhinehart Times which is published hourly. Lloyd Redman is seen working in the Ford Plant at Detroit, applying green print to nuts and bolts. Harold, Wise was found walking the streets of New York with his shadow following him. Wonder who she is! Can't you guess? And here we see in the White House, Berniece Johnston acting as stenographer for the President. We wonder what White House and what President. And last but not least, whom should he find in Hoboken but Blanche Billings teaching her Seventh and Eighth Grade classes that two can live as cheaply as one. p a q V PROGRAMS BACCALAUREATE SERVICE May 27, 1934 Processional Song........

The Freshmen escaped this year at the init-atlon; however, most of them came back . After this return of lost sheep everything proceeded smoothly. Most of the Freshman walked the plank, ate worms, and sat on the electric chair with a great show of bravery. The Sophomore class was well represented in both girls' and boys' baseball. In the Inter-elass Dramatic contest they placed third. r ■ . . • . • $ The members who enrolled in the Freshman class were: Lottie Sec, Leila Westen- skow, Beniece Fowler, Dele Greiner, David Sanderson, Dary in Keenan, Armonu Arnoldus, Charles Deem, Harold Schvebke, Edgar Cantrel and Gilbert luorris.

During the middle of the school year,.Anabel moved away and later in the year, Emma moved away so the eighth grade had only seven for graduation. On-Christmas all the school took part in the program. Our room presented a play, some poems, a song by Melba Westenskow, Alvin Bushman and Aletha Bushman and a harmonica duet by Verna Graybeal and Emma Coe.

We had a party on Valentine's day planned by the eighth grade, Ihe seventh grade gave the eighth grade a party at Mrs. Dennison's house on May 5th. Cake and ice cream were served and everybody had a fine time. Everyone in the eighth grade had to take the tests although we were exempted as far as state records were concerned. Bie class average in these tests was very high. Eighth Grade Commencement was on May IVth. Mr. Johnson was not able to attend because of illness. Mr. King took his place. Mr. Hale presented diplomas to the graduates. We all enjoyed our work through thh ypar'of 1933-34, and look forward to next year. I vy ? v i I I. H. S.

Their livestock judging team, composed of Elton Frizzell, Clyde Ott, Harland Pratt, and Delmer Fowler won first place In the F. F. A. livestock judging contest at Wallowa County Fair last fall. They were 4th at the Eastern Oregon Livestock Show at Union, At the Pacific International, the judging team placed 15th In the contest with 76 teams, from the five Western states Competing, The team was 6th In judging Jersey cattle, D. Fowler was 22nd high point man. The Chapter's F. F. A. department exhibit won first place among the F. F. A. exhibits at the Union County Grange Fair, last October, At this Fair, the chapter prepared community exhibits for both Summerville and Imbler. Another outstanding activity of the Future Farmers was their Overall and Apron Barn Dance, The boys decorated the gym so that It looked like a typical barn bedecked for the grand opening, 75 couples attended. The Future Farmers went to Enterprise to compete In a chapter meeting contest In which they placed 5th, Delmer Fowler represented Imbler in the Extemp, Speaking Contest and won 4th honors. The Imbler school grounds received their first touoh of landscape gardening at the hands of the Ag, boys this Spring when a lawn was planted at the front of the school building, trees around the yard and shrubs near the building. F. F. A, activities for the year were climaxed with a swimming party and picnic at Cove. The Home Ec, classes were guests. The event was considered a success and a fitting close to a great year. g 'WV M HOME ECONOMICS REV.'S The first activity of the Hone Econonics classes this year was preparing and serving the P. F. A. Father and Son Banquet. Later in the spring, the School Master Club were guests at Imbler High School, and the banquet was in charge of the Horne Economics department. Candy sales, cooky sales and selling refreshments at the Ag-Home Ec. dance made it possible for the girls to raise enough money to re-cover the cloak room day bed and buy miscellaneous equipment for the laboratory including a set of china. In April, the department was represented at the District conference of Home Economics clubs in La Grande by June Conrad, Dorothy Richeson, Ruth Conklin and Gertrude Oehler, their instructor. On May 12th, the Home Economics Classes sponsored a tea for the mothers of all high school students. It is hoped that this affair will become a tradition of Imbler High School. The total enrollment for the year was nineteen and the year was considered a very successful one. DECLARATION CONTENT Imbler High School made a good shoving in the declamatory contest which was held in the Eastern Oregon Normal bchool auditorium, April 21, 1934, winning one first place and one second place. Ruth Hale won first place in the humorous division with her selection Brotherly Love and Blanche Billings won second in the non- humorous division giving The White Hands of Telham. liiss Callihan was the coach. Representatives were present from La Gr-. nae. Union, Cove, North Powder and Imbler. Imbler also has reason to be proud of their grade school in the County Declamatory Contest, Verna Graybeal, representing the Eighth Grade and Alvin Bushman, representing the Sixth Grade, were the students taking part from Imbler. In the Eighth Grade division, Verna Graybeal took first place with a non-humorous reading Scratch, the Newsboy's Dog,” and in the Sixth Grade division Alvin Bushman took third place with a humorous reading ”The Palace of Pun. The grade students were coached by Mrs. Milo Stewart and Mr. Lee Johnson. The members of this years Volleyball team warei June Frizzell, captain, Blanche Billings, June Conrad, Berniece Fowler, Marguerite Hug, Ruth Conklin, Naomi Perry, Marjorie Woodell, Edith Greiner, Donna Watson, Neta Wilson And Dorothy Richeson. Their first opponents. Union, easily defeated the Imbler girls. For the next game, the team journeyed to Cove where they again lost. However Imbler won the next two games played with Unien and lost by a very close margin in the last game with Cove. Imbler took second place in the County. I The Girls’ Basketball team played a very successful season, losing but one game out of twelve played. The end of'the season found Cove and Imbler tieing for first place in the County, Championship post-season games were then scheduled. Imbler girls showed their championship caliber in defeating the Cove girls two games straight by decisive scores, Blanche Billings, captain and forward, will be the on y player lost through graduation. Ruth Conklin, forward; Berniece Fowler and June Conrad guards; Berta Lloyd jumping center; and June Frizzell side center were the other members of the winning team. Dorothy Richeson, guard and jumping center, saw lots of action, but was out of several games because of illness,. Naoma Perry, Dorothy Crouser and Neta Wilson were substitutes who will be working for nlaces next year. Much credit goes to the fine work of the guards, Berniece Fowler and June Conrad, ■ who were responsible for keeping the opponent's scoring down. Imbler girls made a total' of 229 points during the season to their oppositions 129 points. W M BOYS BASKETBALL The most successful basketball season in the history of Imbler High School was the verdict of fans and students at the culmination of this years season which saw Imbler earn the right to play in the Eastern Oregon Tournament at Union. Imbler won 15 and lost 5 games. IQ v 6: i i m I QQ . This years team was made up mostly of five regulars namely Lyle Crouser, center; Harland Pratt and Chase McCoy, forwards, and Delmer Fowler and Kioth McKinnis, guards. Substitutes consisted of Thurman Teeter, John Friswold, and Kieth Pratt. The team lost but two pre-tournament games and went into the sub-district tournament heavy favorites as one of the four teams to pull through and reach Union. Drawing a tough assignment in La Grande for their first game we lost in the quarter and were forced to play three more hard games, winning the last one by one point in a fourth period rally against North Powder. At Union Imbler again drew unlucky and with the absence of Harland Pratt due to illness were in a bad way for their first game against the strong Baker five. Thurman Teeter came through in nice shape playing for Harland and was a large factor in Imbler’s win. The pace of the next two games with La Grande and Cove after the hard sub-district tournament proved too much and Iiabler was eliminated with the satisfaction at least that (cent. ____ -------(T7) next page) they had defeated the team which finished second In the tournament. Three of this years first five will he graduated this June namely Delmer Fowler, Keith McKlnnls and Harland Pratt and their places will be extremely hard to fill. However with Lyle Crouser and Chase McCoy as nucleus and Thurman -Teeter, John Frlswod, Keith Pratt, and Frank Wagoner developing fast. Coach King hopes to make a creditable showing again next year. opponent Where played Imbler 29 North Powder 21 N.

He i9 without a doubt the best catcher in the lea.gue a,nd. is also developed into one of the best hitters. He led his team this year in hitting with ,j n average of .500$. Keith McKinnis, stellar . pitcher, is also a senior and has played his last game for Imbler igh School. Keith's re.c.ojrd this .year is remarkable. There was not one earned run scored off him for the- entire season. He allowed no team . over” three hits, and in his last game against Cove turned in a no hit, no run game. This was the second of his high school career. The other last year against La Grande. (con't on next page) ' (3 j yi SosetdH ( c ° ' Lyle Crouser, first base. Lyle found his batting eye this year to hit for an average of ,316. This with his defensive play at first base combined to make him the outstanding first sacker if the league. Lyle is a Junior and has another year. Elton Frizzell, second baseman and one of the leading hitters in the league, Elton was always cool and steady and could be depended upon to hit when hits were needed most. He was also valuable in the field. Elton will be missed next year. Harland Pratt, short step developed this year into an excellent fielder. He was fast, and had an excellent arm. His hitting was also above the average. Harland s place will be hard to fill next year. Dick Howell, third base was handicapped by illness towards the last of the season which kept him out of a couple of games. Dick always played the game for all there was in it and his hitting was a large factor in Imblers victories. He will not be available next year. Ralph Frizzell, outfielder was a sure fly hawk who could cover lots of ground. Ralph'is only a Junior and has another year to play for Imbler. Chase McCoy, centerfielder was no doubt the fastest fielder in the league. Chase is also a Junior and will be back next year. John Frlswold, outfielder. John was also our utility pitcher but did not have to work in that capacity this year. John was among the leading hitters on the team and great things are expected of him next year. Roy Nelderer, utility outfielder was one of the hardest workers on the team. He has developed fast this year and will no doubt earn a regular berth next year. Thurman Teeter, general utility. This is Thurmans first experience playing baseball. However he is learning fast and with a little more experience will make the grade. Others showing pp will who will probably make next years regulars are Darwin Keenan, Leighton Johnston Tom Craig, and Frank Wagoner. Charles Beem, David Sanderson and Dale Greiner were also out all season and working hard. They are developing fast and may make the older boys step for regular berths next year. £ j x'i SENIOR CLASS THREE ACT PLAY A large and appreciative audience was present at Wade Hall on the night of April 27th to see the Seniors present Madam the Boss. Many interesting situations arose when a woman became mayor of Kendall, a small middlewestern city. Laughs were provided by Berniece Johnston as Sally, the gum chewing stenographer; Dick Howell as Sammy, the dapper, talkative salesman and Howard Wilson as Henry, the mayor's father . Robert Higgins, the hard -boiled political boss of Kendall was convincingly portrayed by Delmer Fowler. Blanche Billings as the lady mayor, Gilda Wakefield, immediately won the audience on her side in her. political venture. Marguerite Hug as the socially ambitious Mrs. Higgins, Clyde Ott as Tom Robbins, Higgins' henchman, and Lloyd Redman as the young lawyer John Watts were all especially well cast in their J)arts and gave a very creditable performance. The play was directed by Gertrude Oehler. The Junior Class of 1934 presented on March the 2nd the play Headstrong Joan. The scene of the play was the garden of Jim Day's hone, in a country village fifty miles from Boston. The action of the play begins with Jack Day returning from Boston where he has been attending school , bringing with'hlm'a girl , Joan'Van Pelt , who offends with an attempt at superior manners, and to whom Jack has. been secretly married. Joan disrupts the peaceful home of Jim Day, making every one unhappy, until her better nature asserts itself, and she asks forgiveness. Comedy is supplied throughout the play by Abie, a Jewish peddler, Ikie, his son, and Honora, Jim Day’s old Irish housekeeper. The directing was done by Miss Callihan. Quite a large crowd attended the play and altogether it was very successful. The characters were as follows: Aura Vernon... Richard Randal Granny Day.... Honora......... Rosie..........

The name was Uncle Lick's Mistake. It was indeed a success, winning second place. Those taking parts were Charles Been , Darwin Keenan, Berniece Fowler, Lottie See and Harold Schv ebke. SOPHOMORE ONE-ACT PLAY The Sophomores won third place in the contest this year. The sorry plight of a man who made a bet that he could converse successfully for an evening uning just two words Thanks Awfully M , gave the play its name. Y hen the girl of his dreams came on the scene, he was anxious to be let cut of his bargain, but no such luck. The result was rather uncomfortable but at last satisfactory. JUNIOR CLASS ONE-ACT PLAY The Junior Class presented as their one act play, Box and Cox. The cast included Bos, whose part was played by Tcm Craig, Ccx, 'who was played by John Friswold, and Marjorie Woodell played the part of the land-lady, Mrs. Bouncer. The Junior Class Is proud of the fact that they succeeded in placing first in the contest. SENIOR CLASS ONE-ACT PLAY Sky Fodder was presented by the Seniors. It was a modernistic tradgedy. Those taking part were Howard Wilson, Dick Howell and Delmer Fowler. i Vj I | k +'■ y 1 I f i ! P-.'. y -V The Girls Glee Club has had a very successful year due to the hard work and patience of their instructor Miss. Callihan and accompaniest Rena Choate. They have sung several numbers before the assembly and also at many other entertainments.

Girls Sextette The girls who sing in the sextette this year are Donna Watson, Naoma Perry, Berniece Fowler, Lorena Stewart, Dorothy Richeson and Ethel Pratt. They represented the Imbler High School at the Music Festival which was held at the Eastern Oregon Normal School in La Grande this year. They have sung at various school and P. T. A. programs, also at the first tea held in Imbler High school in honor of the mothers on Mothers Day This year we lose our best alto, Ethel Pratt, but we hope the rest of them will be here to help ug out next year. a.
