The two boys both were able to attend the meet. It was one of the big upsets of the season when Frank Myrick, Hermiston javelin man, carried away that event and his throw of 153 feet, 6 inches was good enough to win first place. Myrick, who is only a sophomore, was prob ably more surprised than anyone else. Harkenrider’s second place in the 880 came as no surprise to lo cal track fans as Frank's repu tation had already been estab lished. The track team as a whole pull ed a surprise when they placed fourth in Eastern Oregon at a meet where about 20 schools were en tered. Other points came in third and fourth places but no one else managed to qualify for the state meet. Winner of the meet was La Grande, followed by Pendle ton, Mac Hi and Hermiston. Other boys who gained points at the meet were Rugg, Rowell, Schoonover and Follett.

The decoration committee started out under the severe hand icap of being unable to purchase enough crepe paper for decoration purposes, so their ingenious minds set to work and, with the help of Mr. G. C. Humphreys, they utilized a plan of using paper plates dipped in the different col ors of the rainbow. The stage was brought to at tention by a large rainbow drap ed over it and brightly colored paper plates dangled from the entire ceiling. Native huts, palm trees, tropical birds, animals, and flowers added to the beauty and authenticity of the lovely scene. A large crowd was present as 250 invitations were sent out and everyone enjoyed dancing to the swingy music of Branstetter's Or chestra from Pendleton.
