He was immediately accepted into the swing of things and assumed his place in school life as one of its promising citizens. Thi3 young nan was a determined youth who decided to set his course and made up his mind to follow it to its conclusion. While a Sophomore he v as elected to the Vice-Presidency of his class. He was also one of the substitutes for Basketball and for the Baseball squad. Upon becoming a Junior he was again inspired along athletic lines and secured a berth on the Basketball and Baseball squads. Also as an indication of his fine manhood, the F.F.A. saw fit to elect him as their President. A decision which was never regretted by anyone. When, beginning his Senior year he was elected President of the class we knew he was worthy of this honor and all were greatly pleased by the election. Thus there began as fine a beginning in life as any young man could wish. To this friend and schoolmate, to this pleasant and mannerly young man to a good guy we of the student body, the senior class and the faculty pay our last meagre tribute to Claire Fuller, who this year, did graduate with us in our class of '41.

Enthusiastic enough, but we, like all Freshmen, lacked the carefree manner of the high and nighty seniors. There was an enrollement of 13 Freshmen. Shortly after school had begun we were subject to initiation which in return the sophomores were given a Bunco Party. Under the leadership of Hr. Hudson White v e had several parties which proved very successful.. Several took part in the One-Act Freshmen play, also in the Student body play given that year. Our next step up the ladder of knowledge found us in our sophomore year under the leadership of Kiss Helen Stevens- Putting it mildly the freshmen initiation was not a success. Our One-Act play for this year was 'They Go On the Air.. It was a comical play and every one had a good time acting in it. Haunted our Junior Class play, was coached by our advisor Mr. Joe Johnson. The money taken in from the play was U3ed for the Junior-Senior Banquet given the 17th of May- Our One Act play v as given, also some of the students took part in the Student Body Play- Claire Fuller and Arthur Todd were on the Basket ball team, Kay 18th v e had a Junior Swimming and Theater party. Everyone seemed to have a nice time. As Seniors, we were certainly privileged characters with Mr. Wilfred Burgess as our class advisor. One of the senior F.F.A. boys,Jim Lloyd, had the privilege of being a representative from the Pacific Northwest who got the trip to Kansas City Missouri. Early in the Fall v e presented the Cne-Act play Fixers Incorporated. In the Spring Howard Bing-aman, Dean Johnston, and Laurel Lloyd contributed to the Studentbody One-Act play, titled, Eh. Laurel Lloyd v as chosen D.A-R. good citizen can date for Imbler Senior Sneak Day v as enjoyed by all as the final get-together of the Senior Class, SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY In a quaint little village on the coast of Switzerland, in the year 1950, in his small drawing room, we find Mr. Burgess deep in his profession of star gazing. As he walks slowly over to the window to study the stars, his mind goes back to his Senior Class of 1941. There are twelve outstanding stars. In the first star he sees Howard Bingaman who has graduated from O.S.C. with high honors, he is nov; instructor of the Agriculture Department consisting of 141 students at dear old I.H.S. Next Is seen Laurel Lloyd in Hollywood who has become famous for writing' movie synopsis' in the Editorial Department of the M.G.M. Studios. Jim Lloyd has become a successful hermit living in tKe Mountains back of Summerville growing beans. In a distance Mr. Burgess' sees two stars quite close together they are, Helen Holloway and Geraldine Wells. Helen is a dress designer for Gerry who has become the famous actress in the show Maisie Was A Lady.” Dean Johnston is next seen by Mr. ' Burgess. Dean has a string of Model T. Fords which he is entering in the National Model T. Soap Box Derby at Indianapolis. Edna Grlener is happily married, she is conduct or of the Little Theatre off Time Square in down town Nebraska. Carl Westenskow is chief engineer of the large railroad running between the large city of Imbler and Summerville, so we finally found out his technique in rating with the girls. Arthur Todd had become a great'English Instructor at the University of Oregon. He is trying to teach Doran Lee Hopkins the princiles of English. Irene P.icheson is happily married living in New York where she and her husband are putting out the newspaper Daily Times. John Rollins has hitch hiked from Imbler to New York to appear on the Major Bowes Sunday Morning Radio Hour. John has become famous for his wonderful violin selection Back from the others is seen a tiney star twink ling in the blue mist. As it becomes brighter a vision of DeLeva Hug is seen in a large hospital, she has taken nurses training, and has collasped. ■under the tedious strain of her work. She has finally decided it would be a much better idea to get married and settle down. SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the members of the senior class of the Imbler high school, realizing that our days as students of the Imbler high school are about at a end, and desiring to make disposal of our property and belongings, do declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any wills by us made during our junior year. 1- It is our desire that our alma mater benefit as much as possible by our domicile in the high school, and we therefore leave the bulk of our estate to the high school, V e realize that what we are leaving is nothing to compare in value v ith what we are taking away from high school. Any small contrubution that we may have been able to make cannot in any way compensate the school for what it has done for us. 2- Feeling very affectionate towards the junior class, it is our desire that this class inherit all of our mental capacity in order that the said junior class may have no difficulty in measuring up mentally to the high requirements set for senior classes. 3- V e hereby will and bequeath to the students of the high school our request that they strive to be as earnestly try to be worthy students of the high school even as we have been. 4- V e have a very deep feeling for members of the faculty of our fair school. It is our desire that they have many years of happy teaching. 5- V e wish that v e might have more to leave. Yet if v e did, inheritance taxes would dig deeply into the corpus of our estate. 6- To the people of this community who have helped us along the way v e leave loads of thanks and appreciation. 7-We as individuals will the following: I, Howard Bingaman, will my Sophomore friend the Ilavekost brothers.

From a small squad of boys, Coach Albert Hopkins developed a team that played the strongest competition that Union and Wallowa Counties had to offer finishing third in Tu-valley League play consisting of eight schools. Although injuries checked the team's progress a few times, the spirit and enthusiasm displayed by the hoopsters was exceptional. To begin the season, the basketball squad made a trip into Idaho where the panthers defeated a strong aggregation at Eagle 24-15. Inbler finished the season in triumph by defeating the Enterprise Savages on the Panther court 26 to 15. This was a rousing victory for Inbler as Enterprise is listed as an A School in athletics. Merle Holloway was named as center on the first all-Star League Team and Bill Furman as forward on the second all-Star Team. Individual scoring honors also goes to Furman. Because of injuries, Phil Anderson was forced of play early in the season. Howard Binganan, also v. because of injuries, checked out later in the season.

Phil Anderson, guard; Olin Hopkins, center; Merle Holloway, center; and Sfoach Albert I pkin||4lBMaiBBBBSKaflaBaRSH||JK;SBe , BASEBALL With only three or four experienced baseball players in school it looked as if it would be impossible for Coach Albert Hopkins to develop a strong team with such a small turn out, but with unceasing labor of the coach and team we have made an impressive record. Memorable among the games played was the eleven to-five defeat administered to the heavy hitting Elgin squad the last game of the season. Dope predicted that Elgin would win the league. The Imbler sluggers pounded their way to seven victories and dropped four games during the season. Holloway and German proved themselves to be able hurlers supported behind the bat by Berry and 0'Mohundro. Outstanding hitting of the season goes to Holloway .600, German .441, and Anderson .382.
