THE BOBCAT Page 13 Senior Class History The year of ’42 promised to be an interesting one for the Senior Class. Since this was the last year of high school for the seniors, most of them decided to start out right. The Senior boys were very interested in sports, so a large majority turned out lor football practice. Most of these were on the team, many earning their letters. Hill Gale was named the most valuable member of the team receiving the trophy. Work was started on the Senior one-act play, “Who Gets the Car Tonight?” A the result of much work, this play won first place in the one-act play contest. Lucille Keys and Boh Pike were chosen the outstanding Senior .actor and actress. The boys of the Senior Class stepped out and showed the underclassmen how to play basketball by winning the inter-class basketball tournament. The girls didn’t want to lx behind and tried very hard to win their tournament, hut luck was against them and they took second place in the girls’ inter-class tournament. An outstanding feature of the year was a contest sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution to pick the outstanding Senior girl in the state of Oregon who was to receive an all-expense trip to Washington, D. C. The Senior Class selected Barbara Galle, Eleanor Richards and Lucille Hutchinson to compete for this honor. The faculty chose one girl, Lucille Hutchinson, to represent the school. She competed for Union High School in the county; and was once more chosen. The county lx ard then sent Lucille’s name to the state committee at Salem where all the names were put in a hat and one drawn. But alas! Lucille’s luck had changed because the lucky girl was a girl from Pendleton. Another honor came to a member of the Senior Class when Bill Gale won the Union Pacific Scholarship which pays $100 tuition and a roundtrip ticket to Oregon State College. The qualifications needed to get this scholarship are the student’s scholastic standing, his activity record, and a high rating on his record hook and in the Agricultural classes. The District F. F. A. Public Speaking Contest was held at Union High School March 13 and 14. Bill Gale took top honors with a first in the public speaking division. Bill won the State Contest at Portland, so he will go to Cheyenne, Wyoming, on May 4th to compete against eleven other state winners. The Seniors entered the inter-class debate and were victorious, the affirmative having no defeats. The Senior affirmative team was Lucille Hutchinson, Carolyn Withycombe, and Boh Pike. Negative team was Nancy Cosner and Georgia Me Mi Ilian. The Senior Class, always ready to try new ideas, presented “The Night of January 16, the class play, in penthouse style. This scene was in a court room; the cast being among the audience, just as people do in an actual court. The townspeople took great interest and cooperated to the fullest extent by being the jury. They brought back their verdict and were then surprised by the Judge’s remarks, who said that all jurors names were stricken off the jurors’ records for five years. A very important event in the Senior year is the choosing of a gift for the school. The Seniors, like many before them, gave this matter much deep thought, and decided upon a suitable gift, a new movie screen. This is the type that can lx folded and put in the office for safe-keeping. The Seniors hope that much benefit may be derived from this gift. Last hut not least, in a Senior’s life is the all-important Skip Day.” This year, due to the gas and tire rationing, the Seniors didn’t stray far from home, spending the day at Bingham Springs near Pendleton. This spot offered much in the way of entertainment—horseback riding, swimming, hiking, and dancing filled the ticket for most of the class. Once more a class has moved on into a world of opportunity. What is to become of them, no one knows. However, may much luck and happiness be theirs.
