Full many a race is lost Ere even a step is run And many a coward fails Ere even his work’s begun. Think big, and your deeds will grow; Think small, and you’ll fall behind; Think that you can, and you will--------- It's all in the state of mind. If you think you are outclassed, you are; You've got to think high to rise; You’ve got to be sure of yourself before You can ever win a prize. Life’s battle don’t always go To the stronger or faster man; But soon or late the man who wins Is the man who thinks he can.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Early in September, 1937, the school bells were ringing, and the air was full of the shouts of small children who were skipping gaily on their way to school. Among the ones who were to enroll in the first grade at Imhler was Margaret Ann Hunt, who has brown eyes and was slightly bashful. Margaret is the only one of the group who has remained here to graduate from high school. In the second grade Margaret was joined by another girl who is still with us. This was Virginia Barton, a regular little athlete. She later became known as “Ginnie” to most of us. The next year the two girls were joined by a short, lively boy with a pleasant smile. This was Shannon McDaniel. Shannon proved to be quite a basketball player in later years. Other boys and girls came to join this group, but they have gone leaving only these three who were here in grade school. The first year in high school these were joined by two boys from Dry Creek. One was Ralph Bolin, tall, blonde, and always blushing, even at his own remarks. The other one from Dry Creek was a good looking chap with dark curly hair and a cute grin. This addition to our class was Philip Street. That same year, Nora Stephens, a short, smiling girl, came to us from Idaho. Nora took top scholastic honors and is the class valedictorian. The initiation proved to be fun not only for the sophomores but for the freshmen also, except for Ralph who didn’t survive the “festered cat eyes” so well. In the third year of high school, a cute blonde girl from Nebraska joined our class. She has been a great addition to the scenery around Imbler high. This of course is Darken McLaughlin. She took a great part in the one-act play, “Herbie and the Mumps”, which tied with the sophomore play for first in the contest. Now we are leaving Imbler high school to enroll in a greater school called “life”. Here’s hoping we enjoy this new school as much as we have enjoyed the one of the past. SENIOR GLASS WILL I, NORA LOU STEPHENS, will my little feet, size 4, to Gene Bolin. Don’t let anyone step on them, Gene. I, SHANNON McDANIEL, will my ambition to my brother Gale in the hopes that he’ll put it to good use. I, VIRGINIA BARTON, will my freckles to Shirley Frizzell. 1 don’t think I’ll need them anymore. 1, DARLEEN McLAUGHLIN, will my nickname “Crisco” and the remains of my peroxide to Louise Robinson. I hope it does as much for you as it has for me. (The peroxide, that is.) I. PHILIP MARION STREET, will my “gift of gab” to Shirley Frizzell. I hope that she will use it more than I have. I, RALPH BOLIN, will my ability of getting little blondes to Raymond Omohundro. Just leave the brunettes alone, Ray. I, MARGARET ANN HUNT, will my quiet ways and my ability to get along with the faculty, and everyone else to Jackie McLaughlin. SKNIOR GLASS FHOI’HEGY TIME—1970. PLACE—Washington, D. C., at unveiling of Atomic Time Machine. Among those present are the President of the United States, Olin Hopkins, and his attractive wife, the former Margaret Hunt of Imbler, Oregon. The inventor of the time machine and other scientists who have assisted in the invention of the machine are also present. As they discuss what the time machine will do and how many years back it will go, the president’s wife, the former Miss Hunt, begins to rememl)er her school days and classmates. She wonders what has become of them and what lias happened to them in the years since their graduation way back in ’49. She asks as a favor to herself and as a tryout for the machine that they go back a few years to find out where they all are and what they are doing. Her favor is granted anti the machine is made ready for the test. Through the time machine we first follow the life of Virginia Barton who is now a prominent rancher’s wife. Her husband is, of course, none other than her sweetheart of high school days, George Stillman. We see Virginia and George and their five lovely children engaged in the duties of their ranch. They appear to be extremely happy and “Ginny” is as pert and cute as ever. Next we take a “looksee” at what has happened to another classmate of Margie’s. We hear music and laughter and then to our view comes the arena of the rodeo grounds, where a clown is performing with a little black mule. As Margaret sees the clown, memories rush back, for there is Ralph blushing and smiling just like in high school days. His partner, both in his act and in real life, is the former Sue Kinnel of Imbler. Margie remembers Sue as the cute little blonde Freshman that Ralph used to take out when he was a senior. As the screen clears again we see a hospital come into view. Here we see, in the office of the superintendent of nurses, a blonde who is none other than Darleen McLaughlin. She has finished her hard-working, drudging years of training and has finally made the grade of superintendent. We find her tilted back in her office chair reading Why Late Hours Make Learning Harder.” She still is a blonde (peroxide) and she gets along very well with all the young internes at the hospital. The time machine now changes and into the screen we see a sign which reads Phil’s Fun House.” We see the inside of the large building and find that it is packed with people, and there in the crowd Margie sees none other than Phil Street. He has the same curly hair and cute grin. Phil is very popular in his “Fun House , for we see him surrounded by lovely girls—blondes, brunettes, and redheads. Margie smiles as she sees thifc for she rememlx rs that Phil always was rather popular with all the girls back in Imbler high. As the scene changes again. Margaret thinks of Nora Stephens and wonders if she remembers what she always said about adopting all of her children. She isn’t long in finding out, for the screen is filled with children of all sizes and colors. There in the background sits Nora, her hair in a knot and streaked with gray. She is reading fairy tales to a group of small children. A sign over the door reads, “Nora Stephens’ Home For Orphans.” As this scene fades, a familiar picture takes its place. There before her eyes is Imbler just as it was in ’49. Instead of the quiet street that it used to be, there is a big crowd and a platform and who is being introduced as the new mayor? Yes, it is none other than a former classmate. Shannon McDaniel. We see him leaving the platform and he appears to lx? in a great hurry. The crowd parts to let him through, and now we see that his heifer is out again. Dixie, his wife, and John, Jake, and Joe,, his three bouncing boys, rush to help mayor McDaniel get his heifer back into their yard. The time machine has proved to be a great success, although it brings tears to Margaret Hopkins’ eyes as she remembers her school days and classmates. She thanks the scientists while she and Olin leave the laboratory to return to the White House where their five children are waiting anxiously for their return. SHIRLEY FRIZZELL ELAINE ROBINSON -‘So - J A GENE BOLIN JUNIOR GLASS The Junior class of ’48-’49 began the year with nine members, but one of them, Hayward Tucker, dropped out before the end of the year leaving four girls and four boys. Class officers for the year were: President, Bob Starns; vice-president Dean McKinnis; secretary, Lowell Westenskow; treasurer, Dixie Booth; councilman. Gene Bolin. In dramatics, the Juniors came in second in the one-act play contest when “In Doubt About Daisy” was given. The Junior three-act play, “Here Comes Charlie”, was presented on April 15, and was good for a lot of laughs for everyone. An afternoon matinee was held for the entertainment of the grade school on April 14. The Junior-Senior formal banquet was given at Orella’s Garden on Thursday, May 19. Decorations were the Senior colors of orchid and silver. The evening was enjoyed immensely by the members, faculty, and guests. The Junior colors are blue and silver, our flowers are red and white carnations, and our motto is, “If We Rest, We Rust”. SOPHOiMOKS . SGPHGMOEB GLASS At the beginning of the year the Sophomores elected their officers as follows: President, Melvin Patrick; vice-president. Jack McLaughlin; secretary, Evelyn Scott; treasurer, Dale Niederer; class representative, Raymond Omohundro. The next thing to come was the Freshman initiation on September 29. This was a hard task as far as the Sophomores were concerned, but all survived and everyone had fun in the end. Among the many things to happen to the Sophomore class was the one-act plays on December 3 in which the Sophomores and Seniors tied for first place. FRBSHMAN GLASS On September 8, a group of sixteen Freshmen entered Imbler high. Among them was a new member, Gilbert Knight from Alicel. Vadalee Baker from California joined us too, although both left again. September 29 was our initiation sponsored by the Sophomores, which the Freshmen, surprisingly, survived. The Freshman class with their advisor, Mr. Wroniwicz, elected the following officers: President, Dan Jordan; vice-president, Mary Ann VVes-tenskow; secretary-treasurer, Leonard Brookshier; and class representative, Shirley McDaniel. Other members of the class are: Suzanne Kin- nel, Lois Wilson, Billy Wagoner, Keith Barton, Louise Robinson, Jim Rogers, Corrine McLaughlin, Dale Simpson, Betty Jo Wilson, and Charles Perkins. Office The office girls this year are Dixie Booth, Elaine Robinson, Shirley Frizzell, and Nora Stephens. This year we have been busy typing and mimeographing tests and other classroom materials besides making posters and programs for plays, smokers, and other school activities. Shirley and Elaine have been busy taking care of Mr. Sawyer’s agriculture materials. The regular office duties of writing letters, recording attendance records, and filing, have also been clone. 8 Cud out Gouncil The Student Council is composed of elected representatives of the student body and representatives from each class. This year they are as follows: Ralph Bolin, president; Shannon McDaniel, vice-president; Darleen McLaughlin, secretary; Nora Stephens, treasurer; Margaret Hunt, editor; JoAnn Perkins, assistant editor; Philip Street, manager; Lowell Westenskow, assistant manager; and Shirley McDaniel, Gene Bolin, Ray Omohundro, and Shannon McDaniel, class representatives. Mr. Rogers is advisor. Student Council officers elected for next year are: Gene Bolin, president; Melvin Patrick, vice-president; Elaine Robinson, secretary; Dixie Booth, treasurer; Betty York, assistant editor; and Raymond Omohundro, assistant manager. Library We had six student librarians during the school year. They were: Corrine McLaughlin, Lois Wilson, Dean McKinnis, JoAnn Perkins, Shirley Frizzell, and Elaine Robinson. Mr. Sawyer was our advisor. Along with the regular duties of checking books in and out, the librarians have been busy rebinding worn books and cataloging the many new books received this year. I '- Future Farmers of America The Imbler Future Farmer Chapter, livestock judging team, placed fifth in the Northwest F. F. A. livestock judging contest at the Pacific International Livestock Exposition in Portland, October 9, 1948. In the F. F. A. division, approximately fifty teams from Oregon, Washington, California, and Idaho competed-. The Imbler team placed first in the contest from the state of Oregon. Ray Omohundro, Gene Bolin, Donald Ruttan, and Joe Scott, alternate, composed the team. The team placed in top position in the entire contest in judging Chesterwhite sows. Ray Omohundro was high man in the Duroc sow contest. Mr. Robert H. Sawyer is agriculture instructor and advisor to this team. Later in the year the officers’ convention was held at Baker, Oregon, on December 4, 1948. Boys who attended were as follows: Dean McKinnis, president; Shannon McDaniel, vice-president; Gene L. Bolin, reporter; Lowell Westenskow, secretary; Philip Street, treasurer; and Robert H. Sawyer, advisor. When the group arrived at Baker, the Baker chapter took the floor in the Baker high school. After ceremonies, Eldin Barker, district vice-president, took the floor and discussed what motions would be used at the 1949 parliamentary contest. Then the officers broke up into groups and discussed what their jobs were as officers. The Chandler Hereford ranch was visited on the way home from Baker, where some of Oregon’s finest beef cattle were seen by the chapter members. The Imbler chapter also competed in the parliamentary and public speaking contest at Nyssa, January 28-29. Ray Omohundro was our public speaker and spoke on “The New Frontier’’, in Agriculture. Philip Street placed first with his treasurer’s book. The parliamentary contest was held in the Nyssa gymnasium with the Imbler officers competing against La Grande, Ontario, Halfway, Adrian, Baker, and Vale. The winners were Ontario, Nyssa and La Grande. The motto of our organization is— Learning to do—Doing to learn—Earning to live—Living to serve. VOLLEY BALL Our coach selected the best players from the group and formed a volleyball squad. The girls were as follows: Virginia Barton, Nora Stephens, Margaret Hunt, captain; Shirley Frizzell, JoAnn Perkins, Juanita Craig, Shirley McDaniel, Suzanne Kinnel, Lois Wilson, and Mary Ann Westenskow. Dixie Booth was chosen manager. We selected our suits, which were black shorts and white blouses. New warm-up jackets were purchased by the student body. This year Imbler started something new in volleyball in this county. Together with Union and Elgin, we held three Jamborees. The admission charged the spectators was used to purchase a trophy. The first games were played at Imbler, the second at Elgin, and the final game was at Union where the trophy was to be presented the winning team. The last game was played between Union and Imbler, the results being a tie. The tie was played off that night. It was a very close game with the score ending Union 13 and Imbler 17. The trophy was presented to our captain, Margaret Hunt. Yell Leaders Shirley McDaniel, Corine McLaughlin and Suzanne Kinnel were chosen yell leaders for the 194849 basketball season. They wore costumes that were the same color as the boys’ black and orange nuiforms. Many new yell routines were put into action, and it is the opinion that they did a fine job. Boys Sports At the beginning of the year the student body purchased new basketball suits. The basketball season was not very successful with only two wins. They were over Cove and Lostine. Although the baseball season is here, no league games have been played, but we are hoping for a successful season. There has not been much practice as yet because of the wet field. A smoker has been scheduled with Enterprise, and several more are expected. New equipment has been purchased by the F. F. A. chapter. Some of the boys who are turning out for boxing are showing better style and are in very good shape. Mr. Sawyer took over the coaching of boys’ baseball and boxing after the death of Mr. Wronicmicz. Qrade School First Grade We started school this year with an enrollment of twenty-one. Later Maurice Marzinick moved to Alicel, and Verlene Stiverson moved to Baker. We were greatly saddened when Kay Teeter passed away in January as a result of the measles. We felt privileged to have had Kay’s association, if for only a short time. Our present enrollment includes: Robert Brookshier, Carl Doud, Lulu May Doud, Norma Doud, Donna Follett, Sharon Hill, Carl Johnson, Randi Johnson, Larry Loedy, Patty Lively, Ann McDonald. Anita Martin. David Noyes. Ray Panter, Kendrick Siegrist, Teddy Wagner, Joe Westenskow andjerry White. Mrs. Blanche Lively is our teacher. During our home unit study last fall, we made a little house of orange crates and made most of the furnishings. This spring during our farm unit activities, we constructed a little farm with animals that stand up. We were guests of the second grade at a nice Halloween party. We had a Christmas party and a belated Valentine party in our own room. In the Christmas operetta, “Where Was Santa”, the girls were northern light sprites and the boys were the toy makers. The members of our room belong to the American Junior Red Cross. We were also active in the CROP and the March of Dimes projects. We have had a busy and interesting year. Second Grade Our enrollment includes Jimmy Beck. Joyce Ann Billerbeck. Charlotte Ann Coffin. Laurelie Hawks. James Helm. Danny Hill, Eddie Johnson. Edward McLaughlin, Alvia Overman. Charlotte Ann Patrick, Jimmy Patterson, Edna Perkins, Louise Scott. Louise Tuck. Rosalie Tuck, and Jan Wagner. Mrs. Kathryn Rogers is our teacher During the year. Yvonne Marzenick and Annabelle Austin moved to Alicel. Alvia Overman from Oklahoma and Jimmy Beck from La Grande came to us. Many things enlivened our room the first semester—plants, rock collections, and a moss garden which had many animals in it. one of which was a live frog. We became toy makers and northern light sprites from the Christmas operetta, and studied hard to sing, dance, and say our parts just right. The second semester found us with lots of snow and measles, causing many � f us extra work to catch up with more fortunate schoolmates. During a circus project, animals from deep Africa roamed our room, with clowns and circus tents to make them feel at home. We have borrowed many nice books from the La Grande public library. All of us have enjoyed the films shown us this year. We have finished our course of study and are looking forward to vacation days. Third Grade Members of our class this year are: Bobby Bruce. Darold Doud, Gordon Hens- ley, Dwight Hopkins. Bobby Hoyles, George Jones, Pat McDaniel, Bobby Joe McLaughlin. Tommy Noyes. Jack Panter, Jack Perkins, Clifford Scott, Dale Wagner, Jimmy West.

Marvin Overman is our new student from Forest Grove, California. Mrs. Veda Couzens taught the class until December 24, 1948. Mrs. Afton Roy now has the group. The group took active part in the Christmas program. We had Thanksgiving and Valentine parties. Fourth and Filth Grades We started the school year with an enrollment of twenty-eight. During the first term, Betty Marzinick left to finish her fourth year at Alicel. During Christmas vacation another fourth grader, Jimmy Austin, moved to Alicel. Enrollment was then left quite steady with the exception of our seventeen measle cases. The first of March welcomed two new students, David Beck, a fourth grader from La Grande and Barbara Overman, a fifth grader from Clearwater, California.

Our class took part in many activities during the year. We won the prize for the largest P. T. A. membership. The entire class participated in the Christmas play. Lennie Wagoner took a leading part as the “crooked man”. During the cold winter days we held a checker tournament, and the fourth grade practiced on their tonettes to prepare for the spring music festival. Sixth Grade September 7th found twc nty-one members enrolled in the sixth grade. In December. Donnie Smith movtd to Pasco, Washington, and Joe Clipston moved to La Grande. Our enrollment for the remainder of the year was nineteen. Classwork has been interesting this year. In art we made waste paper baskets, picture frames, papier-mache objects, and sprinkling bottles. IXiring a unit in science we constructed one large airplane and several individual solid models. To complete a unit of study on food in health class, we entertained our mothers and fathers at an e.vening dinner party. We planned the menu, divided into groups to prepare the food, and set the tables. We reviewed our table manners, made table decorations, and planned a short program. Our class has been active in other ways during the year. The Foreign Earth Children” for the operetta, Where Was Santa,” included all of the sixth graders except Howard Wagner, who was IY lo, the Artie aviator. The basketball team from the tilth and sixth grade boys played a game with Elgin, losing by a margin of only three points. Our class picture was printed on the front page of the La Grande Observer for collecting more money than any other room in the Imbler school for the overseas CROP drive. The members of the class, listed as they stand in the picture are: 1st row, left to right: Duane Paroz. Bucko Barton, Lorna Saling, Lee Roy Tuck. Kay Ruckman, Klwyn Bingaman, Jimmy McKinnis. 2nd row: James Scott, Jimmie Wagoner, Howard Wagner, Yvonne Helm. Jack Wilson, David Cornell. 3rd row: Janice Wilson, Janice Cleaver, Diane Wagner, Miss Ruth Read, teacher; Sharon Kinnel, Ilene Bewley, and Carol Patrick. Seventh and Eighth Grades Early in the year we elected Hurshel Quebbeinan as class president; Elva Hunt, vice-president; Richard Booth, secretary; and Joanne Glenn and Milodene Fries, yell leaders. Joe Austin, Tommy Grant, and Tommy Baker moved away before Christmas. Alice Gamble. Glenda Overman, and Larry Thompson came to Imbler after starting somewhere else. At one time there were thirty-one students in the room. Our final enrollment worked down to twenty-nine. Of this number fifteen were boys and fourteen were girls. During the basketball season, the whole room was able to make a trip to Elgin to see the boys play. The boys on the team were Dale Hug, Malen Doles, Jim Calhoun, Dean Westenskow, Carl Hensley, Paul Wagoner, Bill Rogers, Hurshel Quebbe-man, Larry Thompson, John Saling and Richard Booth, manager. We won two games, and lost some of our other games by a narrow margin. At the end of the season, the team placed second in the B” tournament, losing to Elgin by only 5 points. In the Christmas operetta, “Where Was Santa”, Paul Wagoner was Santa; Joanne Glenn. Wixwax, the wicked witch; Milodene Fries, Queen of the Northern Lights; Richard Booth, Polar Bear; Jim Calhoun, Cerulean Prince. Bill Rogers and Hurshel Quebbeman were the sound effects men; Elva was the indispensable accompanist. Janet Ikiwks played for the Hawaiian dancers on her guitar. All the other members of the room helped by stage work or tending the smaller children. Grade School Athletics Early in the year, Joanne Glenn and Milodene Fries were elected as grade school yell leaders. These girls practiced yells and taught them to other students. There was lots of support for home games and for the Elgin game which was attended by all members of the seventh and eighth grades. During football season, a great many games were played among the boys of the four upper grades, but no casualties were suffered. Instead of playing touch-tackle, we acquired some green and white flags for opposing players. The ball carrier was “down” as soon as the opposing player grabbed the flag which the carrier had hanging from his hip pocket. Basketball season found enough players in the seventh and eighth grades for two teams. The members were Jim Calhoun, Dale Hug, Bill Rogers, Malin Doles, Larry Thompson, Carl Hensley, Dean Westenskow, Paul Wagoner, John Sali.ng and Hershel Quebbeinan. Games were played against Central of La Grande, Elgin, Union, and North Powder. During the season, several games were dropped by just a point or two. In the grade school “B” tournament for the county, Imbler came in second. Carl Hensley was high point man followed by Dean Westenskow and Dale Hug. The best all-around performance for the year was turned in by Dale Hug during the tournament. His defense was good, and he scored twenty points in two games. Others to break into the scoring column were Calhoun, Doles, Wagoner, and Quebbeman. The fifth and sixth grade boys played one game against Elgin. It was a hard fought battle all the way, but they lost by one point. Baseball season is just under way with only two games played. Both were losses. They are attributed to so much speed that the boys couldn’t stop on bases and to “butter-fingers”. Coach Bean believes that there was enough “butter” present to start a creamery, but that if the boys will leave the horseshoes out of their pockets, they may be able to outrun and outscore everyone they meet next year.
