His service to the school is the center of his life and he is admired for it. Not the least of his attributes is a sense of humor which enables him to laugh at difficulties. Mr. Harris has worked hard with the band and glee-clubs tor the last two years. Under his direction the Glee-Club took the grade ot l at a convention in La-Grande, Oregon, during the spring term. His sincere interest in his music and confidence in his students places Mr. Harris high on every students list of Friends 2 X ik - Q: jk -m, I 4, 5 'mf j 4?

Representatives of the classes and various class officers performed their duties in upholding previous traditions of the former councils. The council, through regular meetings, discussed and acted upon the student affairs of the school. Much credit for the backing and upholding of the plan for lighting the football field is due to this group. The council had very capable and energetic leaders this year and thus much was accomplished through the Student Council. -,V TN I, fl I lf' xx iff? A 1 X, . fl, f' f , ..1 ,f 6 ,1 . f f .

We studied and worked uncertainly, but soon, however, school fell into a regular routine and we attracted our first attention from the school with our class party. Class elections brought victory to Naomi Ellenberger, President, Delores Kolbaba, Vice-President, Phil Krueger, Secretary-Treasurer, Connie Christ- iansen, girls representative, and Joe Conner, boys representative. To Mrs. Robertson fell the lot of guiding our first fumbling footsteps through our first high school year. When we were Sophomores, we knew nothing, but now were wise and worldly Juniors with Joe Conner, President, Maxene Ward, Vice-President, Cleo Lee, Secretary, Gloria Aguer, Treasurer, Ruth Kenney, Girls Represent- ative, and Frank Echanis, Boys Representative. We had a very successful year. We welcomed Mrs. Robertson back into the fold with open arms, for she was to be our sponsor again. Under the direction of Mrs. Ragsdale and Mrs. Robertson, our Junior Class play broke all records for laughs and attendance. Later, with Stardust as our theme and the Payette High School orchestra furnishing the music, the Junior-Senior Prom was super. Once again the portals of our Alma Mate'r opened its doors to have us enter as full-fledged Seniors. We had almost forgotten the worldliness we felt when we were Juniors. Class elections started the year off with a bang. Ken- neth lreland was chosen our leader for the year. Assisting him were Naomi Ellenberger, Vice-President, Gordon Chytraus, Secretary, Frank Preston, Treasurer, Delores Kolbaba, Girls' Representative and Ray Scott, Boys' Rep- resentative. Mrs. Robertson was again called to serve as our sponsor, for who else could do the job so well? Again we had a successful party and play, and as usual we dominated the sports fields, and ruled over the school activities. Many of the boys who would be graduating with us left their studies and all the pleasures of their high school days to serve their country. At last commencement draws nigh and like many Seniors before us, we prepare to take our big step in life. How we attack the problems which will confront us in life will depend a great deal on the type of philosophy we have acquired during the past three years . . . If we ignore the obstacles they are already half overcome. Longfellow says: We have not wings, we cannot soar But we have feet to scale and climb By slow degrees, by more and more The cloudy summits of our time.

W' ' jf I8 .llunior CC ass History ln the year nineteen-hundred and forty-five the sophomores entered TArio High with a feeling of uncertainty and were as a matter of routine, treated as underdogs. Determined to reach their goal they revived the Pep Club and donated three yell-leaders. '- Now as the Junior Class of 46 they have given a good representation toward school activities and class participation. Being willing to do their share, they were the first to put-on an assembly in which they analized the importance of cooperation among students and teachers. To illustrate this assembly, they brought forth the orgin of Sadie Hawkins Day. They also presented the Sadie Hawkins Party which was one of the most successful and out-standing parties of the year. The Juniors ability to act was demonstrated in their play, lntimate Enemys. The Junior-Senior Prom was one of the most eventful happenings of the spring term. We are now looking forward to being the graduating class of II47.II l9 JUUNJI 20 RS KIMI AKEYAMA--Kimi DELORES BARNES-Dee DELORES BLANTON-Nicotine WAN DA CON E-Wondo JEAN BULL-Fullo CAROLYN CURTIS-Curt VERLA CUTLER-Cutler PATRICIA DAVIS-Pot MARY ELLEN DEARBORN-Mory JUNE DECKER-June JANE FLEGEL-Jane JOYCE FRASIER--Cuddles MITZI FUGITA-Mitzi MIEKO FUGITA-Mieko SHIZUKO FUGITA-Zuko JUNIIORS META CASKILL-Meta EUNICE GRIFFIN-Eunice VIOLA GRIFFIN-Viola LOIS GUNDERSON-Gundy BETTY HAGOOD-Hey Good MARY ANE HARRIS-Harris JOAN HAWK-Joonnie JOAN HIRANO-Joon SUZY HUNSAKER-Suzy ELVA JEAN KIEM-Jean MARIE KEOSHITA-Marie JOYCE KOLMAN-Joyce RUTH KUGA-Ruth RITA LATERMAN-Rita KAY MORISHITA-Kay 21 .JUUNTIORS 22 DONNA LEVITT-Levitt DOROTHY LINK-Link ETHEL KANYID-Ethel HELEN MCBRIDEH-Moc ARLENE MCDOLE-Arlene ROSE MIO-Rose LOIS MONTGOMERY-Lois LILLIAN MORINAGA--Lillian NAN MORISHIGE-Non FREDA MULLINS-Moon RUBY oeum-Ruby CHIZUKO AKIMOTO-Chiz BETTY ANN PITTARD--Pittord JANE ROGERS-Roger KATHLEEN SASAKEE-Kote JHUNIIORS ELEANORA SCHLAGEL--Eleonor MELBA SABIN--Melbo BEVERLY TAYLOR-Bird leggs DOROTHY TERASHIMA-Dot DELORES TYLER-Bugs FLORANNE WARD--Floro A ,, LOUUSE WINEGAR-Louise TOM ACKERMAN-Benchy LEON ANDERSON--Leon SAM BACA-Tob A JOE BAILEY-Jumbo E.

Here we are still at the grindstone, ready to sharpen our wits for the coming year. As leaders of our prosperous year we selected the students of good stand- ing which is necessary for a successful class. Our choice fell on Roy Huffaker, President. Nancy Gribbon and Tommy Joseph as class representatives, Henry Sherman as Vice-President. Helpers were Beth Williams, secretary, and Bonnie Goul, treasurer. Q Like all Sophomore classes we held the first party of the year. It was a big success. We had a few Sophomores on the football field but they turned out for basketball, full force, making up the Junior-Varcity team. We now await the notorious day that we become Juniors in good ole' TArio High. 30 Marcy Anderson Betty Black Della Joan Braswell Joyce Braswell Geraldine Carr Palsy Christiansen Joan Cornwell Donna Courtny Fern Despain Peggy Donhcim Bernice Erickson Jessie Fukawa Bonnie Goul Leola Grey May l-lironaka Mina Griffin Cecelia Grove Mable Hines Erma Griffin Fumie S PHUMORES Blocher Ruby Bolles -9' Lorna Chandler Rosann Decker Kazuko Fukciwa 3 'Z' Nancy Gribbon Shirley Harvey Hiuga Charlotte Horner 31 me up SOPHUMORES I Thelda Hunter Donna lnloes Leona Keller Sally Kenny Esther Lewallen Betty Lou Maddox Verna Manning Nan Morishige Anne Nelson Lily Omura LaRee Orr Eileen O'Toole Colene Owen Dixie Lee Rice Sylvia Rigsby Lola Sato Joan Savage Joan Staples Bertha Sweet lla Belle Ward Alice Warner Florence Webb Clarice White Beth Williams I A Juanita Wilson ' Sharon Woodruff its . .

They lead th boys to First place in the SRV championship in basketball and Second place in football, and so far this spring have made a very goccl start in baseball and track, but we don't know the score yet. Coach Bob Howard, during his high school and college days was well known in the sports world for his fast running in track, on the sprints and for his kicking in football. Coach Jchn Comisky is from the east, New Jersey, and played baseball at Trenton, He has played baseball with George Case and Hank Greenberg. He came to Ontario iust after receiving his discharge from the army. 46 -Q JOE CHAMBERS-This all-round athlete combined speed and foresight in making Ontario's offense cl ic k.

GIBB HUNTER--Husky Tiger guard, Gib will again see plenty of action on next years team. His playing ability and keen judg- ment combined with excellent sportsmanship made him a first-rate guy. VAL NICKELSON-Val played End. A tall player he could disgrace his opponent's plays and break up interference, leaving the ball-carrier at the mercy of his teammates. The team will miss him next year. SHERO YANO-One of the two Ontario players to receive a position on Boise's all- opponent team. Sher's three years experi- ence and rugged playing will be missed by next yeor's eleven. ROY RICHTER-Speedy half-back of the Tigers, Roy will be back next year to con- tribute his fine defensive play, and open- field running to the 46 varsity.
