Looking back four years to that day the class of “51 entered the halls of L. H. S., do you remember what a thrill it was? Do you remember what “scared little things” we were that day? Do you remember how much we looked forward to that day? Remember that Bill West was president of our Fresh- man class, an office which he held also as a Sophomore, and he led us in the two move-up assemblies. Then Dick Hadden and Duane Hamlin, respectively, led us in the two following years. Do you remember that hilarious comedy, “Henrietta The Eighth, staged by the class in our junior year. No one will forget very soon how hard we worked to decorate and put on the Junior-Senior Prom in honor of the seniors, and at the same time looked forward to the next year when the prom would be in our honor. Do you remember all the fun we had on our Junior Skip Day at Wallowa Lake, or the day all the seniors skipped school and left for parts unknown to spend the day having a good time. Do you remember the class play in our senior year? You don’t,! well, the title was “Our Miss Brooks, a comedy centering around school life. As one opens the “51” Mimir in years to come your mind will wander back to that day in 1951 when youascended the stage in the L. H. S. auditorium to receive your di- ploma, and how you hated to leave the halls of L. H. S. remembering how many friendships you had formed and the good times you had together. DO YOU REMEMBER? 30 Senior f- ropliecy New York, New York May 19, 1965 Dear Mr. Walk : In regard to your letter requiring information concerning the 1951 graduating class I would like to say that due to circumstances beyond my control I can only generalize on the members and their activities. Traveling through New York last week on my way home from Europe I happened to encounter a number of former L. H. S. graduates singing in a world renowned Glee Club. This was quite a surprise to me as I had no idea Mr. Wood’s a capella choir would furnish the basic training necessary for such accomplishments. Walking down Fifth Avenue I noticed that a much publicized volleyball game was to be held that evening in Madison Square Garden. As I had plenty of leisure time on my hands I decided to squander my hard earned money and attend. On my arrival at the stadium I found to my astonishment that it was La Grande’s famous Boy's Volleyball Team which had its origin way back in 1950 when they were trounced by the girl’s team. It was after this first defeat that this team gained fame and was now playing the Cleveland Indians for the World Series. Need I say more? La Grande as usual was victorious. Oh yes, during my stay in Europelmet several members of the '51 class on their way to Russia for an interview with Stalin. How they were able to bring about this meeting I’ll never know, but the initative of some people makes practi- cally everything possible. In my contact with embassy legations abroad I was de- lighted to find a fine group of alumni serving as experts in various capacities in these foreign countries. They per- sonally told me they acquired thein knowledge of interest in these countries from their dear old Senior English Class. Who would have thought that those headaches which started in 1951 would have changed to the vocation of so many by 196 5. Leaving New York and traveling westward I found that no matter where I chanced to stop, the name of a fellow classmate would be brought to my attention. In all professions, doctors, engineers, lawyers, educators and orchestra leaders and even in Uncle Sam’s Armed Forces, they were successful. On the whole I would say that the class of '51 is, rela- tively speaking, well on the road to success and are bringing recognition to La Grande as graduates of L. H. S. ss:dh 31 Sincerely yours, Duane Hamlin President, United Nations GENE BOLEN President Wilbur Anson, Marie Ainsworth, Thelma Allen, Robert Bagley, Walter Bean, Ruth Bean.

Uardity dootbaff c uad GRIDIRON GLORIES OF 1950 The pre-season dopesters, remember- ing that the championship squad of '49 was composed largely of seniors, were inclined to predict only a fair showing in the fall of '50. And once again the experts were proven to be off the beam, for though inexperienced, the Tigers were used towinning and refused to believe that anything in the Blue Moun- tain Area could beat them. Bill West, the only regular starter fronr last year, moved from half back to full. Jim Bramer took over the signal calling duties and the halfback chores were divided between Woodley McManus, Eric Christ- ensen and Stan White. Dick Koffard, Corny DeKalb, and Morris Buckwalter battled for starting berths at end while Gene Bolen and Gordon Struck anchored the forward wall at tackle. Starting guards were Kerm Stine, John Leffel and Dick Jordahl, and sophomore Jim Markham made first string center. This was the outfit which, aided by a fine group of reserves, whipped every team in the Blue Mt. League only to drop the District Crown by a fluke. The Mabee coached Bengals started their season with a roar smashing over Baker 27-0. Only one catch--it didn't count in league standings. Then they split the next two non-counters, dropping the first to the Roughriders of Portland 32-2, but coming back in fine style to humble Kennewick, Wash., 33-13. The Tigers had hit their stride and in rapid succession trounced Nyssa 38-13; Mac - Hi (pre-season favorites) 12-0; Pendleton 19-0; and The Dalles (it was close) 12-7. Then came Armistice Day and the tradi- tional Baker game. Lowly Baker, winless, beaten by all comers, vs. mighty La Grande, defeated only by Roosevelt. Alas, how the mighty are fallen! The win-hungry Bulldogs could donothing wrong, the Tigers could do nothing right and the 24-7 score told the true story. Instead of being Champs, the Tigers are only co-champions of the Blue Mt. League with Mac-Hi. And even though our boys had demonstrated on the field their superiority over the Pioneers, a vote of the league members gave the sub-district title to Mac- Hi. In his fifth year at La Grande, Mabee, with the able assistance of two new coaches, Vic Adams and Jack Jenkins, has done a commendable job with the football squad. With the large group of veterans that were seasoned in this year's campaign, return- ing for the gridiron wars of '51, we can look forward with confidence to another success- ful football season. ----------y - - - - Jenkins, Adams, and Head Coach Mabee.

S. are known through- out the state as the “Tigers . Our basketball team is not only branded the tiger, but in every respect has all the fight, speed, and cunning of the Bengel, which is shown in their season record of 21 victories against 3 defeats. The team is built around three players in par- ticular. Morris Buckwalter, one of the finest guards in the state, Dick Kofford, the most underated player in the Blue Mt. Conference and All-Stater Bill West. The “first five consists of 3 juniors and 2 sen- iors which shows that you students can expect a very gcfod team in the coming season. The Tigers, coached by Don Mabee won the Blue Mt. League Championship with a conference record of 14 victories and 2 defeats, suffered by the hands of Pendleton and Mac-Hi. This is the first year that La Grande has won four straight games over their greatest rival, Baker. La Grande won the District title and a right to represent District one in the State Tournament at Eugene with two victories over Ontario of the Snake River Valley League. In the last 4 out of 5 years La Grande has rep- resented District 1 at the State Tournament. 50 Though the wrestling class seems to be handicapped by- problems such as which room to wrestle in and when, it certainly isn’t hampered by lack of enthusiasm or lack of good instruction. The boys gain good constructive know- ledge, good sportsmanship, and a lot of fun that will be valuable assets and memories later. Below is pictured the track and field hope for 51. At the time of this writing the 1951 season is still to be run. So as has been done in previous issues we will review the accomplishments of 1950. Last spring the Tiger thine lads wrote a proud chapter in the sports history of L. H. S. In the season opener, The Carni- val of Speed, the Tigers showed up well in most departments. Lanky Norm Prof- fitt set a new meet record of 5’11 l 4 in winning the high jump. In the Walla Walla Relays against the cream of track talent of the Inland Empire our boys gave a preview of the strength and fight that they were to display later in the season, as they took second behind Yakima. Again Proffitt set a meet record in the high jump with a leap of 5’10 l 2 . The Tri County Meet was La Grande’s all the way. Big Bill West personally collected 19 points. Coach Exley’s charges were in a winning mood and they ran and jumped their way to the Blue Mt. League Champi- onship at Pendleton. For the second year they completely dominated the hurdle events with Dick Zimmerman and West taking the highs and Wayne Berry and West in the lows. The 880 yd. relay team composed of Berry, West, CornyDe Kalb, and Charles Brackett, sewed up the meet by winning their event. The Eastern Oregon District meet held yearly on the La Grande Oval was not as successful as the other meets from one stanupoint as they ended up with third place. However it was highly successful from the point of view that we qualified 7 men to go to the State Meet at Corvallis. At that meet the relay team took fourth, West took 4th in the high hurdles, Berry ran 3rd in the low hurdles, and Zimmer- man brought fame and glory to L. H. S. by setting anew state record of 14.8 seconds in the high hurdles. The combined efforts of these boys earned the Tigers the Third Place Trophy. The only veterans of this stellar squad who are returning for the ’51 season are West and De Kalb so the prospects are that this will be a building year. What ever the pre-season dope may be we can be certain that the Tigers will have another strong track team. % 55 VJLyUt -JffSL, VJLyLJt fJoco v on fioh OPoO Og£ 59 Oraaniza tion6 The Girl’s Athletic Association is composed of the girls who are interested in going out for sports such as volley- ball, basketball, ping pong, tennis, skiing, skating, bowling, soccer, etc. An all star team is chosen in volleyball and basketball from each class. These girls play off for the championship. Gracie Dunn is President; Leta Elam, Vice-president; Carol Ager, Secretary-treasurer; and Sharon Davin, His- torian. A couple of times a year the girls have a play day with the G. A. A. from another school such as Baker, Union, etc. They also have potluck dinners and meetings several times a year. Any girl who has earned 50 points in any of these sports is qualified for membership. A total of 100 points qualifies a girl for a sweater with one stripe. 150 points for 2 strips; 200 points for 3 stripes and 250 points for 4 stripes. A State Association Pin is awarded to the senior girls who have 200 points and qualify in such things as scholastic standing and approval of a committee. IBP cu The Library Club is a service club and it exists only to extend the best possible library service to every student and teacher in the school. Eleven students and Miss Olsen, who has been the supervisor for the past five years, comprise the library staff with Pat Jordan as president. Student li- brarians recommended to the high school principal and the student body president as having given cooperative service for at least one year in the library, are presented with a library pin in their senior year. Sidney Burliegh, Dora Gibbs, Anneta Hanlen, Florence Carn, Jeanette Dixon, Carol Ager, SusanSuan ders, Agnes Tsiatsos, Sarah Hindman, Barbara Hickox, Mrs. Putnam, Pat Everett. A number of high school youth are interested in and in need of secur- ing employment training in the industrial and business fields, looking toward full-time employment following high school graduation. If a local community is to satisfy the needs of such students, then vocational educa- tion for initial employment should be made available. One method for providing such instruction is through the Part-Time Cooperative D. O. Program. (D. O.--Diversified Occupations). This pro- gram is unique in that the school utilizes the training facilities and per- sonnel of local businesses; employers utilize the school's facilities for training employees at no extra cost to them. The basic objective of the Part-Time Cooperative Program is to pre- pare high school boys and girls for useful employment in occupations of their choice. Students acquire practical work experience through part- time supervised legal employment that provides systematic training under actual job conditions. The school provides instruction in the technical and related information pertaining to the student's job in a specially scheduled class. In addition, students take such additional regular school subjects as are necessary for high school graduation. 69 Only students who have had one year of Home Economics are eligible for membership in F. H. A. , an organization which emphasizes preparation for young women for their futures as homemakers. This club is also a participant in extra-school activities, sponsoring a style show and a St. Patrick's Dance. Experience has shown this club to be one of the most purposeful and active organizations in the high school.

The large number of underclassmen taking the course in '51 gives hope of similar bands in the next few years. Dick ii V 75 Orchestra The orchestra of La Grande High School has been one of the most suc- cessful in Eastern Oregon. They have won more firsts in the times they have par- ticipated in the District and State music contests than any other school in this area. To date, nine. The orchestra consists of from 47-50 members and keeps nearly that number year round. They take part in the annual Spring festi- val, give a Christmas con- cert, play at Baccalaureate and Commencement, and participate in the contest in the Spring. All in all they have quite a full sched- ule and they must work hard to keep up, a job they do very well. 77 _4 Capita Ck oir u Barbara Hickox . Sue Saunders . Marjorie Hill.

Many good times and good laughs won’t find their way into this book, but then again, many will. If each person who reads this book can see his and his friends faces and remember 1951 with a smile, all the work and time the Staff, John, Jim, and Mr. Butchart have spent on this yearbook will be rewarded well. Jig.er - J' ii - —Hui h t The main goal, besides putting out a readable and interesting paper, for the Tiger Hi-Lights this year has been trying to keep out of the red. The credit for accomplishing this goes to Gracie Dunn, Business Manager, and her able staff. Working on a newspaper is no easy task; one must write stories, make headings, type them, help with the layout, and do the hundred little but important details that make a newspaper worthwhile. Yet these same hard workers will always cherish their first newspaper story and the really good one they once wrote. The Tiger Hi - Lights staff deserves a hearty congratulation for putting out their newspaper which with one exception came out every two weeks this year. 86 Cupboard Cafe Quality Food and Service Adams Avenue La Grande Oregon Congratulations To The Grads of 1951 “Augy Sperling From The As Close As Your Phone REYNOLDS INSURANCE AGENCY PRESENTING FLOWERS ARTISTICALLY Chas.
