Mimir Staff, 4. -9 IliKlory A brave young gladiator, in full armor arrayed, With ready eagerness and ambition, Did set forth in search of knowledge and achievements. But, before he went, he counseled with advisors. Who were ripe in wisdom, and in experience keen; And with their goodly council, did he sally forth. He met and conquered, and three fold did exceed, In all encounters, which gave to him in fame, A name undaunted and a spirit immortal. Thus was exhalted his first year of fruitful search. Again, with spirited intent, he did set forth, Again he sought the wisdom of the council; And with the experience of a great warrior He did meet and conquer all his foes, And to all the world was spread the glory of this warrior, And his ability was greatly sought, And people marveled at the wonders he could do. Thus was exhalted the second year of fruitful search. Seeking yet the council, and profiting by advice, Did set forth a third time, this gladiator bold. And with superior warriors he did battle, But exceeded all in every fray he entered. But in every one he gained in knowledge and in power. Yet sought he on, for knowledge was his standard And achievements his worthy goal. Thus was exhaulted his third year of fruitful search. Having for the fourth time gained advice from the council This princely gladiator—or mayhaps t’would better be To call him king, for truly he had earned his title, And did set forth with kingly grace as king of warriors, Did ride again to combat with the pick of warriors. But none could him conquer, for in kingly grace He had acquired courage, courtesy, honor and fairness, Which ended for him his search of knowledge And exhaulted him in worldly wide achievements. —Doris Cade. iu a Junior . The Goddess of Good Fortune smiled on the Junior Class at the beginning of the year, for we made some very happy choices in our class officers. Stanley Zundel, having shown himself to be possessed of abundant powers of leadership as President in our Freshman year, was elected President. A capable executive staff was provided with Robert Ramsey, Vice-President; Francis De Long, Secretary-Treasurer, and George Kumasawa and Jane Ravenscroft as Live Wires. The Goddess of Good Fortune favored us once more in the staging of the Junior Stunt, Jewels of Victory. Those taking part were: Stanley Zundel, George Kumasawa, Clair Perkins, Wayne Nusbaum, Ellis Watkins, and Bliss Leslie. The stunt was in two scenes, and was notable for its originality, its effective lighting, and for the wierd organ music which accompanied it throughout. It was said to have been one of the best put on in years. In football we were proud to have eight lettermen: Melvin Guhleman, Leonard Roe, Stanley Zundel, Robert Stoddard, Vernon Waite, Bud Patten, Robert Evans, John Berry, and Edward Thompson. In basketball we contributed Leonard Roe, Bud Patten, and Edward Thompson. The Junior Play, Applesauce, was presented in early May. It was a clever story, ably directed by Miss Sartain. and well presented by Robert Stoddard, Lee Johnson, Mildred Blockland, Margaret Cunliffe, John Berry, Irma Kennedy, and Bliss Leslie. 1 he proceeds of the play financed the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was one of the social high-lights of the year. The advisors, Miss Lee, Mrs. Hayes, and Miss Williams, have helped us through many difficulties. The Goddess of Good Fortune has been our friend throughout the year; next year she will smile upon us and we will be carried to leadership in all activi- ties. Watch us! —S. Bliss Leslie.

Ethel Harnden Lire Wires Orval Anderson Yell Leader Iris Hughes Russell Nelson By our own versatility we have proved our worth to L. H. S. The Seniors, Juniors, and Freshmen expecting the Class of 31” to live up to the old tradition of being the deadest class in history, were astounded when the Sophs gave them a stiff race for the points in the pep contest. In all school athletics we have shown that we have excellent material. In the ticket sales w'e showed our pep by winning several first places. The Sophmore class, not liking their task of ranking last, with one final spurt, jumped to second place in the pep contest w ith only the Seniors ahead of them. —Robert Oesterling 52 Fre hiiH in OFFICERS President .....

Nick Hughes Robert Swan Alice Milne Sally Siegrist and Charles Walniim Frank Anderson The Freshmen class was very successful in their athletics this year. Willie Torrence, Captain of the football team, led the boys victoriously through the football season. John Shepherd and his basketball team were defeated only once during the year. But the boys were not the only ones that entered into athletics. The girls took an active part in sports, and, although they were defeated in volley ball, they were second in basketball. The Freshmen did not get to show their pep by giving a stunt during the football season, but they intend to give it during track season. During the basketball season, twenty-four girls gave an attractive drill which was well received. To show that they could do some things besides play basketball or football, the mid- year Freshmen entertained their mothers by giving a tea in their honor. The class wishes to thank our advisors, Miss Bickford, Miss Glass, Miss Hanna, and Mr. Gralapp, who have helped us to get organized and to give our support to L. H. S. -—Edna Brown, ’32. Freshmen A freshman s life is full of woe— And life treats him so bad— His teachers all mistake him so, The students make him sad. All day, all night, he vexed must be, Through Algebra he cannot see. In Latin class, he s awfully dumb, His brain, it seems like, must be numb. In class he never pays attention— The fact he’s dumb, we’ll fail to mention. And yet, he’s such a winning chap, Why jerk him from his youthful nap? Some day he will a senior be, And then his virtues you will see. For where there’s school, there will be rooks, With their childish ways, and innocent looks. Alumni Gean Anderson Home Vivian Lark . . Pondosa Phyllis Ansel 1 . O. W. R. N. Lorie Ledbetter . .

The Hi-Dads are greatly interested in the athletics and are present at every football and basketball game. They help the teams in every way they can; provide cars to take the students to out-of-town games and contribute much in pep and enthusiasm. They also take a great interest in our scholastic activities. Each year they present Honor Pins to those Seniors who have earned points—both in activities and scholastic standing. At the end of the school year the Hi-Dads give a banquet for the letter men and Honor Society members. This is looked forward to with great anticipation by the students.

Working through the Student Body, which is an organization of the enrollment of the High School, the Executive Committee accomplished many things this year. They reduced the price of the Student Body tickets and the Business Men’s tickets, which encouraged many to buy and make ours a 100%” Student Body. They secured a series of four numbers of a Lyceum course, which were very instruct- ive, and the Student Body benefited greatly through them. The Student Body was also entertained by Miss Porter of New Zealand at a special assembly. Miss Porter showed slides of New Zealand, and her talk was especially interesting. The District Sub-Tournament, sponsored by the Student Body, was held here. The Eastern Oregon Track Meet was also held at La Grande in May. Anderson, Nelson. Watkins, and Ruckman, acting as yell leaders, made the Student Body a peppy one. I iv4‘ liWirc  Each year there is a pep contest held among the four classes. The competitive spirit is instilled by the Live Wires, two students selected from each class to work with the class officers. They have charge of ticket sales for the class plays and other school activities. The class having its reports completed and money turned in to the business manager first is victorious. The Live Wires do their utmost to make the class that they are representing the peppiest.

It aims also to co-operate fully with the Student Body as a whole, of which it is a part, in all worthy efforts for a better school and a finer school spirit. Its motto is Honor, Service, and Friendship.” The executive committee of the A. G. S. is composed of the president, the three vice-presidents, secretary-treasurer, and the advisor. Twenty-eight different committees, on one of which at least, each girl in high school is placed as a member, are directed by chairmen, who thus have an opportunity to develop ability in leadership. The twenty home room representatives elect from their own group a Senior, a Junior, a Sophomore, and a Freshman class representative. Groups of committees and the home room repre- sentatives are supervised by the officers. a. g. €: litto  € Ii€iir■■■  ■■ The functions of the A. G.

The Patsy” was one of the best plays ever presented by a High School Class. It was held for the first time at the Arcade Theater because of the High School fire. As a result, a very large crowd was in attendance. Tony Anderson, who gives Patsy Harrington lessons on how to pick an ideal man, finds himself deeply in love with her at the close of his lessons. Patsy is in love with Tony but believes that he loves her sister Grace. Only after Grace disqualifies herself in Tony's eyes, does he realize his true love for Patsy.

Because the Mimir went to press before the play was given, the cast could not have their picture in costume. Ma and Pa Robinson desire a wealthy husband for their daughter Hazel, and so encourage her to marry Roilo Jenkins, the villain. After her engagement to him, she realizes that she cares for Bill McAllister and so marries him. They live in a tiny flat and manage to eke out an existence by accepting money from Hazel's parents. Finally Matt McAllister, Bill's uncle, partly forgives them and gets Bill a job. With a substan- tial income in sight, they plan to live on something besides applesauce. CAST Ma Robinson .

They have a definite program in the short wave set, and, if possible, they shali carry it into a television receiving outfit. The club is working with Mr. Rasmussen, the radio man at Carr's Furniture Store, to trace down the interference that is bothering local reception. Mr. Rasmussen has talked to the club on various occasions about interference. With a portable set they will trace down as much noise as possible and bring public opinion to bear towards the elimination of it. With their present short wave receiver, they get all day reception from Schnectady and Pittsburgh on the loud speaker. The school board has allowed one hundred dollars to be used for the advancement of program. About twelve boys have availed themselves of the opportunity to learn more about radio.

Society Every year it is a custom of the Associated Girl Students of our High School to give a welcoming party to the new freshmen girls. This is always the first social event of the High School year. This year the decorations were carried out in the freshmen colors, green and white—and flowers. Dancing was enjoyed. Early this year the girls entertained their mothers at a tea with about one hundred and seventy-five mothers and daughters present. This time decorations were carried out in the school colors, blue and white. Talks were given by Ruth Smalley, President of the A. G. S., and Edna Jensen. The committee chairmen were introduced. A clever program of music was given, concluded by a short skit illustrating the proper dress for High School girls, and a snappy gym skit. On Friday afternoon, October 19, the girls gave a Hallowe'en party. The clever decorations were in keeping. Several booths provided fortune-telling, cider, and lolli- pops. An interesting program was presented. An unusual ghost dance helped complete the program. Dancing was enjoyed with The Bats furnishing the music. The A. G. S. gave their annual Christmas party on December 19, 1928. The pro- gram consisted of a Christmas play and some songs, dances, readings, etc., in keeping with the season. Oranges and holly were the favors. The annual football banquet was held at the Sacajawea in December. Mr. A. W. Nelson was toastmaster for the evening. After the introduction of the first and second teams by Coach Christie, and the Frosh team by Mr. Gralapp, this year's letter men elected Leonard Roe captain for 1929. Captain Leslie Keffer, Captain-elect Leonard Roe and Willie Torrence, Captain of the Frosh team, spoke in behalf of the team. Mr. Appleby, Mr. Reynolds, and Mr. Christie also addressed the group. Then Mr. Towler gave an interesting talk on Oregon and the Development of Football.” Music was furnished by the Saxophone Quartet, consisting of Cleland Wallsinger, Henry Culp, Clark Ruckman, and Stanley Zundel. The Annual Banquet of the A. G. S. was held in the Domestic Science rooms on Thursday, February 21, 1929- Ruth Smalley, President, was chairman of the evening, and in her opening remarks told the purposes, ideals, and organizations of the A. G. S. The officers were introduced; each spoke briefly and introduced the committee chairmen under them. Illustrating the work of the organization, several clever skits were given. After these a piano, violin, and singing number was presented. Miss Vernon closed the program with a short talk. A. G. S. matinees were given at different intervals during the school. At these socials, short programs were given, refreshments were served, and dancing was enjoyed. Each function was supervised by a different group of girls. JL 7 2, M 1 y1 t a I The mothers of the new freshmen were entertained at a tea given in the High School Auditorium Monday, March 25, at 3:00 o'clock. Robert Cunliffe announced the program. Lenn Pierson gave the welcoming address. Lilly Hoffman, Eleanor Hicks, Virginia Shepherd, Lenore Headley, and Hazel McPherson took part in the program, which consisted of several piano numbers, two vocal solos, and an appropriate reading entitled Mother.'’ Refreshments were served in the Domestic Art Building. The color scheme was yellow and green. Deviled eggs wrapped in colored paper to represent Easter eggs, raisin and nut sandwiches, and tea were served. After refreshments were served, the mothers were introduced to the Freshmen teach- ers present. The Annual Banquet given for the Seniors by the Juniors was held this year on May 10. This is the greatest social event of the year, and comes as a fitting close for the social activities of the school year. Both classes look forward to this event as much or more than any other event on the social calendar, and this year it proved to be a great success. - X X If ■ ■ iaGfiaraa -r  -=5— a ■ loyr off «• Senior I am a Senior, And I do not feel different Than 1 did when I was a Junior Or Sophmore Or Freshman; Except, perhaps, I feel a little sadder Or More melancholy.

How I Successful The Literary Digest says that thinking and acting people should read the advertise- ments. I sometimes find entertainment and amusement in imagining that I am a thinking person, so I decided to read carefully all the advertisements in the magazine. The very first ad I read assured me that if I ever meant to be popular, I must not be a sufferer from halitosis; 1 must use Listerine. 1 bought a bottle immediately and now I feel quite sure that I must be very popular. Next, I read that, if I desired not to be constantly in a run down and nervous condition, 1 must eat Fleischman's yeast daily. I ate the yeast daily, but found that I was still far from being a perfect person. The advertisements made it clear that I lacked so many things! I lacked a magnetic personality, so I sent three dollars for a book and achieved a magnetic personality in five days. I lacked a great big physique, so I sent one dollar and gained great strong arms (to the admiration of all my friends) in three short lessons. I lacked the ability to produce rich harmony and syncopated jazz so I sent for a patented banjo and aston- ished all my friends. I read about a bottle of hair fluid which would be sent free upon application, so I lost no time in sending for it. This free business sounded pretty good to me, for I had spent a large amount of money on improving myself. When the hair fluid came I grew the luxurious growth of hair for which I am mostly famous. Among other things I became an accomplished pianist over-night, and also a suc- cessful cartoonist. I awed all my friends with my marvelous achievements. I cured all my ailments with a patented violent ray lamp. But now, though as healthy and strong as I could wish to be, and though so popular, I thought I must surely be elected president next term. I was very sad. Yes, very, very sad. 1 was suffering from a severe financial depression. The figures in my bank book had gone as far down as they could, and then, to my amazement, had started up again. But, alas! ’Twas in the red, red deficit column that they were climbing. I seemed very unpopular with my banker, in spite of my lack of halitosis, and my truly remarkable ability at the piano, and my astounding skill with the banjo. My expensive magnetic personality failed to function and he was grim as ever. Even grimmer! I became melancholy, then desperate. Once more I turned to the advertisements and there I found what 1 sought. The very first one that struck my sight was one which promised thirty-five hundred dollars if I picked out the one Charlie Chaplin who was different from twelve others in the picture displayed in the ad. In no time I noticed that the fourth Charlie had a mole on his left cheek-bone which the others didn't have. I didn't wait to receive this easily- earned money, but subscribed to a course which increased my salary from eighteen dollars a week as a clerk to eighty-five dollars as a performer on the xylophone. I also made ninety dollars a week in my spare time by selling a vest-pocket adding machine at two dollars and ninety-five cents each. I made one hundred dollars a week in my spare time in the evening making a greaseless electric doughnut. Then I picked out the real John Alden from a group of seven whose pictures ap- peared in a circle. 1 won eighteen hundred seventy-five dollars. I drew the straight lines separating seven cars in a circle and won twenty-seven hundred fifty dollars in gold. Next, I took a course in charging batteries and earned one hundred twenty-five dollars weekly. I enrolled in National Correspondence School courses and my salary was in- creased while others' were reduced. I doubled my salary by taking a course with the La Salle Extension University. By this time my banker was all wreathed in smiles and my financial worries were over. I had eighty-one hundred twenty-five dollars that I had won in cash prizes. I was t J7 1 SI _12_ A “ 1 earning three hundred eight dollars weekly in my spare time besides my regular salary, which had been increased and then doubled while others' were again reduced. Have 1 forgotten to speak of the little vaporizer which I put on my car and which bought me a new tire every thirty-five hundred miles? 1 soon had so many tires that I had to start a tire shop. Now I am rich, popular, healthy, and several other things. I am indebted to the Literary Digest more than I can ever repay for having first directed my attention to reading advertisements. There is only one fly in my ointment. Yesterday 1 read an advertisement which assured me that I might have taken a complete High School course in two months by enrolling in a correspondence course. Woe is me! —Bliss Leslie. ■ligli Uchool InlicAt We hear the steps of approaching feet, There follows a hush! A silence complete! When Mr. Towler comes into view We hastily start our ambling too. Again, when we think he's safely removed We gather again and the gossip’s renewed. Back to the classroom from which we stole We hurry lest they take the role. When we re settled the assembly bell rings Then we're all desirous of wings. We push and crowd and chatter on Until our destination's won. A silence as Maurice takes the stand There's beautiful music played by the band. Nylic gets up to announce the pep. The Seniors are always ahead—Hep, Hep. Usual announcements by Mr. Towler, Russ pops up and we gotta' holler. We're pleased and wish it wouldn't end. But our principal gives us a fond—Amen. Then back to classes-we must trot; Periods are short and that helps a lot! —Marie Baxter WlH‘ii Komanliooil lias In llloom One bright spring morning, about the same old time when young men's fancies lightly turn—two smitten Roman youths leaned idly against the base of a statue of an ancient god, and gazed in a trance at a certain window across the street. O dear! one youth sighed. Dear me! sighed the other, and then they looked at each other and frowned. I wish you'd go home, Tigerus, the tall dark youth said sharply. I hate to have you catching even a glimpse of the fair Victoria. The other youth, small and fair, gave him an eloquent look that carried little love or affection in it. Don’t annoy me, he said calmly. Bah!” the other stormed. And applesauce!” That’s passe, Opponus, and you know it, Tigerus said gently. That word will probably be invented years from now in a foreign country across the sea. Much you know about it, the other snapped. I'm going home.” Hurrah! cried Tigerus in delight. He watched the other stroll leisurely down the street and said to himself, I wouldn't wish my friend Opponus any bad luck, but how lovely it would be if some chariot would hasten by and splash mud on his robe!” The gods failing to observe his desire, Tigerus turned back to the window and gazed at it in a semi-trance state. Suddenly he smiled and his eyes brightened. At the window a maiden stood—a fair young maiden with golden hair and a beautiful face. She saw him, smiled, and disappeared, and Tigerus’ heart gave one sickening leap and descended to his sandals—jumped suddenly to his throat and finally, reluctantly returned to its resting-place and thumped wildly there. Spurred on by excess energy, Tigerus started down the street in a heavy daze. People turned to stare at him when he passed —and Opponus, meeting him by the pool hall called him sap” and received no reply. Tigerus walked happily on and Opponus frowned. He has seen her! How well I recognize the symptoms. And he ground his teeth in rage and envy. That afternoon as Tigerus and Opponus were sitting with a group of youths in the theater, Towlerus, the Consul, made his way to the stage and commanded silence. I have an announcement to make, he said in his deep bass voice. Senator Christus is conducting a chariot race, and he wishes all young men who wish to enter, to sign up immediately after the show today.” Amid the clapping of hands as Towlerus left the stage, the youths chattered ex- citedly together. Here’s where I show you up, Tigerus! Opponus said gleefully. Tigerus gave him a polite smile. Please don’t, he mocked. Opponus turned to the other youths around them. All we need to do to put Tigerus out is to let the fair Victoria smile at him, he laughed. And Tigerus will still be dreaming when the race is finished!” Tigerus looked very angry. Be careful how you mention a lady’s name publicly, X V 1 ES8SSBB9 5 r X Opponus,” he said. And perhaps you will confine your comments about me as a racer for a future date after the race, if I tell you that I am out to win. He rose and left, his cheeks flushed with anger, as Opponus sneered at him. Still angry and excited, Tigerus went at once to Victoria's home and found her in the garden. Hello, Victoria, he said, his eyes lighting up and his angry look vanishing. Victoria smiled. It's Tigerus,' she said. But why aren't you at the theater where all the youths are? Tigerus smiled. I was there. I'm going to enter a chariot race there. And I came to ask if I might have some token for luck, to carry with me. Victoria clapped her hands delightedly. How lovely! she cried. Here, Tigerus, handing him her slip of a handkerchief, and I hope you win. So do I,” he smiled. And will you go to the Junior-Senior banquet with me? he asked. Victoria laughed. Tigerus, vou forget that High Schools haven't been invented yet,” she reproved. But I will promise to go to the Elks' ball with the winner of the chariot race! Tigerus left excitedly. No matter if the Elks Lodge didn't really exist, Victoria had promised to go to the ball with him, if he won the race. On the day set for the race, Tigerus entered the arena proudly, a tiny slip of white floating on the left side of his chest. Victoria was there, near the front, and, when she smiled and waved at him, he smiled back and turned to Opponus, who was frowning darkly. Do I look like I'm dreaming?” he asked happily. No, Opponus growled. But if I had my say, you'd go to sleep and never wake up.” Then Senator Christus waved a red flag and the race began. It was a close one from the start, but accidents do occur, and soon the two main racers were Opponus and Tigerus. Tigerus was somewhat in the lead, when Opponus, turning dangerously, in- wardly raging, struck his enemy's chariot, and tipped it sideways, where Tigerus was thrown completely out amid dust and confusion. Ladies screamed and men shouted, and Opponus laughed exultantly as he dashed by, but in another instant Tigerus had sprung to his feet and righted his chariot, and was coming desperately after him. Opponus, looking back to laugh triumphantly at his enemy, drove too near a broken chariot, and suddenly, with a crash, one wheel of his chariot was broken off. He sprang out excitedly to see how the damaged wheel might be repaired, and in a few seconds Tigerus swiftly and grimly passed him, and sped up the arena to victory! ■ Spring I ov€ r I sat on the garden wail With my chin in the palms of my hands; Dreaming an idle dream of Spring, Of flowers, and foreign lands. A prodigal sunbeam found me there And chided me in my folly; But I dreamed along, and hummed a song. While it danced on the wall so jolly. For I took no notice of trivial things, My mind was so far away From studies, and worries, and worldly cares. For I had no desire to play. A graceful rose nodded to me A violet smiles in pity, For each knew mortals have many a care, When they live in a crowded city. For school and work and worldly cares Are barriers to life’s worth whiles, When the open road is beckoning you And you long to travel for miles. Forgetting you live in a busy world, You live in a land of dreams, Where fairies sing, and flowers dance, As you drift along on life's stream. And while I sat on the garden wall, Dreaming as busy as beavers, All of a sudden I came back to earth, Alas! a critical case of Spring Fever. —Doris Cade. llhl«klic The 1928 football season was very successful and the team was something for L. H. S. to be proud of. It displayed a true tiger spirit from the beginning and kept that spirit throughout the season. With the first call for football men six lettermen and many unexperienced candidates turned out to try to make the team. Everyone worked hard and, when the time for the first game came, Coach Christie had a team that would do credit to L. H. S. Wallowa came first and La Grande displayed a winning brand of ball and defeated them by a score of 8-0. With another hard week of practice the Tiger team and a train full of lusty followers invaded Enterprise and defeated them 26-6. Day by day the team was gaining strength and confidence. The confidence was some- what shaken when Mac Hi defeated us 39-0. After that overwhelming defeat the Tigers went to work in earnest. Baker, our old-time rival, came to La Grande and were over- run 14-0. The next game was a true test. Pendleton had previously defeated Mac Hi and was favored to win the Eastern Oregon Championship. The game was the best of the season and it ended 0-0. Although the game was a tie, fans from both towns admit that the Tigers were always superior. Our next game was with Walla Walla, one of the strongest teams in Washington. The tigers lost by a score of 26-0, but Walla Walla found it hard to trample on the fighting Tigers. The last game of the season was with Union. In a hard, roughly played game, L. H. S. again showed its superiority by win- ning 12-0. The La Grande High School football team went through the season with only two defeats, one of which was out of the state and made no difference in the race for the Eastern Oregon Championship. The team consisted of twenty-one Tiger lettermen: Captain Keffer, Captain-elect Roe, N. Sting, J. Berry, E. Thompson, M. Guhlman, J. Parker, P. Newlin, V. Newlin, R. Evans, V. Conley, M. Baker, D. Patton, E. Faus, H. Wolfe, S. Zundel, R. Stoddard, C. Berry, V. Waite, L. Graham, S. Miller. SUMMARY At La Grande, L. H. S. 8. Wallowa 0; at Enterprise, L. H. S. 26, Enterprise 6; At Mac Hi. L. H.

V 7 sr a 2 —V Basketball I, in behalf of the Basketball Team, thank the student body as well as the faculty for their hearty co-operation and support given during the season. Suc- cess with the interest of the game and the school in my mind is my sincerest wish.—Harmon Wolfe, Captain. The Tigers enjoyed a most successful basketball season this year. Out of twenty- three games played only seven were lost. The team was one of the best balanced that the school has ever had, the players working together as a well-oiled machine, with very little spectacular work on the part of any one man. The system of plays used this year by Coach Christie was especially good, giving all players equal chance to display their ability. The substitutes contributed a great deal to the success of the team, working hard to develop the regulars into the team they were. A great deal of credit should be given to these men who did not make the regular team but turned out every night for the aid of the school. One of the most important events during the basketball season this year was the sub-district tournament, held at La Grande February 22 and 23. Seven teams were rep- resented, three of which were to go to the district tournament, the three successful teams being La Grande, Wallowa, and Enterprise. La Grande played four games, losing one to Wallowa. In the course of the tournament the Tigers made 210 points to their opponents 78. In the district tournament L. H. S. failed to win the championship but made an excellent showing. The Tigers clashed with Wallowa in the first game, meeting defeat with a score of 39-20. The next two games with Mt. Vernon and Baker were victories, the game with Baker being very hard fought, the final score being 22-20. The next game was with Union, in which the Tigers were defeated, thus eliminating them from the tournament. In this tournament L. H. S. made 125 points to the opponents 107. The first team lettermen were Captain Wolfe, P. Newlin, V. Newlin, L. Roe, G. Faus, E. Thompson, A. Braden, C. Wallsinger, D. Patton, and G. Bugg. Of these, four will be veterans to form the nucleus for next year's team. The school feels justly proud of her team and will try to live up to the reputation earned by this team for square playing.

Seven out of the fourteen lettermen were veterans, having been on previous winning track teams. Following the precedence of former track teams, the Tigers took the Eastern Oregon Track Meet for the fourth consecutive time. It was in this meet that Anson set a new Eastern Oregon record for the mile by running it in the fast time of 4:43, just five seconds below the previous record. In the season's track meets La Grande always dis- played their superiority and won by large scores. In the Bi-County Meet, L. H. S. was victorious by a score of 123 to her nearest opponent's 44 4. In the triangular meet held at Union, L. H. S. scored 111 4 points to Baker's 55)4 and Union's 39- With these successes La Grande sent a track team of sixteen men to Corvallis to compete in the State Track Meet. Again Anson displayed his ability by winning the mile run against very stiff competition. Other members of the Tiger team placed also, giving La Grande ninth place. Lettermen who competed for L. H. S. the last time in 1928 were Anson, Charlton, C. Wolfe, and Sayre, leaving us Baker, Conley, Evans. Keffer, Nowland, Price, Sting, H. Wolfe, Palmer, and Tabor to form the basis for the 1929 track team. With these and new material coming up, the Tigers are looking forward to another successful year on the track and field. fpirls IKa kelli«all The season started out with about ninety girls signed up for Basketball. Most of them remained out for the entire season. One week was spent practicing in the M. I. A. Gym, then the girls were transferred to our Gym in the High School. After five weeks of practice the games series began. From the first it was a real fight to win the laurels. In the first teams, the Sophomores came out first, but only after they had been furiously challenged by the Frosh, and had taken the challenge. The Frosh had to be content with second place. Then the Seniors took defeat and went to third place, and the Juniors finished last. In the Second Teams, the Sophomores again came in first, the Frosh second, and the Juniors third. The Seniors, due to a number of conflicts, did not have sufficient girls out for a second team. At the end of the season the All-Star team was chosen. These teams are made up of the girls showing the best ability through the season. The final game was the All- Star first team vs. the All-Star second team. The All-Star First won 21-11. The season was a very progressive one, and was most successful. Keen interest was taken in it from start to finish. JL i M, 1 Genteel in personage. Conduct, and equipage; Noble by heritage, Generous and free. Such is Coach Glass, who has successfully led the L. H. S. girls through the athletic seasons this year. Coach Glass is not a stranger to the Tiger school. She graduated from L. H. S. in 24 and returned to us to teach her first year. Popular and well liked by all, she has been a good leader for the girls. She introduced many new and interesting things for the girls in the gymnasium classes and had large enrollment in her classes. Most of Coach Glass s time was devoted to training her girls to be firm in their stand for good sportsmanship. Clean playing, fairness, and courtesy are more important than winning a contest, and so Miss Glass has taught the girls throughout the year. We have enjoyed having her with us, and hope she may return next year to carrv on the good work started. X ( o«u Ib 4 liri lic The real test of sportsmanship between schools in athletics is whether it leads to friendship or enmity. If the idea of clean playing, sportsmanship and the reputation is kept in mind rather than the score part of the game, it will lead to friendship in the future. A team showing only the attitude of winning by any possible means will cause enmity between their school and the individual participating in the game. This carries through to later life. Such is the teaching of Coach Christie in training his athletic teams. Doing the best he could to pick teams from the material left from last year the coach has been able to develop teams that were a credit to the school. Hiking Clui There are some girls of the High School who are not satisfied with playing basket- ball or tennis, so every Saturday morning, this group starts out—sometimes with no definite place to go. The girls keep track of the miles they have hiked and at the end of the year, if they have hiked a certain number of miles, they receive a letter. Many girls who would not participate in athletics otherwise, win a letter in the Hiking Club. € «Ml  iifl«Mr Zoom! A giant airplane glided down out of space and lit on the planet of Bumus. From it stepped Professor Ivanitch-I-Shall-Scratchit, the universally famous archeologist. He has just returned from an extended research expedition and reports that he has found what he believes to be traces of a now extinct Roman life on that uninhabited planet, the Earth. He discovered, in a little town, La Grande, which had long ago been buried by the eruption of Rooster Peak, several manuscripts and inscriptions from which the following extracts were taken: Sept. 10. Big assembly. The children tramped to the Temple of Knowledge which bears the mysterious letters of L. H. S. Sept. 11. Lawrence Bay laughed rather heartily. Sept. 12. Had nominations for a yell leader. That was a person who waved his arms and shouted Your Pep. ” (Now this isn't a breakfast food.) Sept. 14. Reception committees in the ante rooms were discouraged. Conspirators moved to more secret places. Sept. 21. A great orator, Mr. Eakin, spoke to this organization on the fundamentals of the laws. A mysterious A. G. S. had a celebration. Only women belonged to this, so it was not a secret organization. Sept. 24. Nylic Lewis, an important ancient, asked the Knowledge Seekers for one dollar. This pays the entrance to athletic activities. The Seniors were led by the Roman gentleman, Sticky Wallsinger. Sept. 27. A horde of novices elected their officers. The Freshmen united under the leadership of Nick Hughes. Sept. 28. Waldo Stoddard, who was a former President of the Temple of Knowl- edge, returned and told about a far-away country of South America. The Freshmen almost caved in the balcony when they thought they were going to see a real live tango.'' Oct. 1. These same curious youngsters were taught the undignified art of yelling. Oct. 4. This yelling was put into practice at a pep meeting for some kind of game with Wallowa. The Seniors gave an undignified stunt. Noted men of the community gave the men encouragement. Then the inscription, Tigers Devour Cougars,” is a diffi- cult one to understand. Apparently wild game grew in abundance. Oct. 11. An assembly—this word re-occurs many times. The dictionary might assist us in understanding this. Then an altogether unknown group comes to light—the Sopho- mores. Oct. 12. Voices were tried out for the game with Enterprise. Also the A. G. S. united to kill time and learn etiquette, a plan for shutting doots. Ben Hur, otherwise Norman Sting, uttered the most renowned phrases in the Roman language. One of the noted Freshmen demonstrated Colgate's Tooth Paste.” Oct. 13. Lucky day! It was arranged that Special Steam Chariots would carry the students to Enterprise. Tigers Slaughter Braves” has something to do with this, but the Braves” weren’t brave enough. Oct. 14. The ancient women had a great deal of liberties. They hiked to the widely known Island City. Think of hiking! Oct. 19.—The great Mac Hi walked ail over L. H. S. Think nothing of it! The Juniors made sacrifices to the Tiger god. How terrible! Oct. 22. A great News Reel was given on New Zealand. In the afternoon Mr. Parounagain told the pupils of the Near East. Two assemblies. Oct. 26. Nick Hughes gave an illustration of Gilda Gray. Also sang several new pieces, as When You and I Were Young, Maggie. These were very instructive lessons. Nov. 9- Horrors of Horrors! The Temple of learning was demolished by a terrible fire. Cause unknown, inmates very sad. Nov. 11. In spite of this catastrophe these brave Romans carried on and went to Pendleton to meet their ancient enemies. Again special chariots were available. Nov. 12. The Romans returned to I.a Granda with the laurels of a tie 0-0 in our favor.” Nov. 16. Lighted by a few candles, the crowd united in the L. D. S. tabernacle to boost the Lyceum. La Granda completely routed Cove, a promising city. Nov. 23. Another mysterious assembly for a game with a country called Walla- Walla-Walla. The Sophomores gave a skit led by little Fred Nowland! The A. G. S. planned to collect food to give to the poor. Nov. 29. Everyone had a great feast. Many turkeys, an extinct species, of bird, devoured. Dec. 1. No school. Good way to begin month. Snow. Everyone racked their brains to win the prize for the best essay on Building and Loans. Dec. 10. No assembly. Dec. 20. No assembly yet. The disappointment was so great that Mildred Standley threatened to faint. Dec. 24. Nick Hughes got a haircut for the great feast of Corpus Christie. Boots Walnum received a rattle and a nickel. Maxine McNeil got big hearted and loaned Harold Browning her wad of gum over the holidays! Jan. 2. The Royal Holiday ended and everyone came back to school. The last of New Year Resolutions were broken. Jan. 3. The Roman twins Remus and Romulus Newlin seem almost caught up on sleep, having slept three periods straight. Jan. 4. Enterprise went down before the ancient Tigers. Jan. 5. Ditto for North Powder. Many scars. Jan. 6. An ancient teacher, Mr. Thomas, delighted in giving daily tests in Civics. Jan. 7. A. G. S. mentioned again. Temperature 20 degrees warmer on account of the hot contest for health. Jan. 8. More Pep served. Joseph and Union went down before the mighty onrush. gfh — ------------------------------ Cl i'I a Jan. 9. Someone told Boyd Jackson they were having exams in this Temple of Knowledge. The information was received with delight. Jan. 16. Great Pow-wow. General Christie took 13 picked men up the branch. (It seems 13 was a lucky number.) Jan. 17. Joseph routed. Jan. 18. Enterprise same. Jan. 19. The Tigers were tired and were forced to retreat from Wallowa. Jan. 21. Started with a clean slate for the last half of the school year. Some re- turned from the fields to the portals of L. H. S. Jan. 25. Clark Ruckman dedicated How Dry I Am to Sticky Wallsinger. Feb. 1. February started with a bang! La Granda was again routed by Wallowa. The first issue of the famous L. H. S. Daily (once a week) came out. What these women were capable of is nobody's business. Feb. 12. Abraham somebody had a birthday. The great speaker, Mr. Cochran, de- livered an oration about him to the students. Feb. 13. The Juniors rode brooms and practiced the reducing exercise of fawing down and going boom. Feb. 14.—A great Roman humorist named Mr. Riley addressed the inmates of the Temple of Learning, and he was greatly appreciated. Feb. 18. The A. G. S. decided that they also could go to battle and adopted pins as their weapons. Feb. 21. The same organization celebrated because the next day everyone had a holiday for the man first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen. Feb. 22. They had a sub-tournament in La Granda for seven teams. Feb. 28. The three great legions—Wallowa, Enterprise, and La Granda, went to the final combat at Union or Onion. The Freshies had a clever drill to send the men off with a bang. (They surely had some good looking girls in that class.) March 1. Sad funeral procession for La Granda! Wet eyes and red noses. March 2. Ditto. March 4. Pauline Conradt, a noted Roman lady, made a creed for the A. G. S. March 14. The last Lyceum number was given as the first event in the Temple of Knowledge's new Auditorium. March 15. Miriam Hanna washed her hands. Everyone thought they should have a holiday. Some professor named Mr. Ritter took the pictures of the many freaks, as you may see by looking in the front of this book. There was a stunt to advertise the Operetta and Doris Cade almost brought down the roof of the new Auditorium. March 19 and 20. The Operetta was given for the little children. March 21 and 22. The Operetta was given for the Ancients of the village and was acclaimed a big success. , March 22. General Christie awarded military honors to the brave L. H. S. war- riors, the Tigers. 1 Vt—, 22. mm® ■t March 26. Assembly. A traveling school called O. S. C. entertained them with the Chimes of Normandy.
