Franks Do,Well
At La Grande
Two Franks brought fame to
Hermiston High at the Eastern
Oregon Track and Field Meet at
La Grande when the two qualified
for the state track meet at Cor
vallis. 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 theme for this year's prom
was "Rainbow Island" and the
decorations were really something
to see. 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.
