Waynoka Historical Society - Photo Inquiry

"Linda, I hope your readers can shed some light on the attached photograph, which was donated to the Waynoka Historical Society. Three people are identified, with their names on the back of the photo, corresponding to the numbers on the photo:

(1.) Dr. Bribasch,

(2.) Gene Howe,

(3.) Jack Lamb.

The photograph was donated to the Waynoka Historical Society along with some very fine early-day Waynoka pictures. Gene Howe was a newspaper editor, rancher, and long-time member of the Texas Game Commission. There is a school named for him in Amarillo (Texas), and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Dept. has a Gene Howe Wildlife Management Area.

In the photograph, Gene Howe is shown as #2. I would like to know if anyone can identify the man in the photo as the one for whom the school and wildlife area are named, and could identify the occasion for the photograph. Thank you for any help with the photograph. Readers could email the Waynoka Historical Society at Email: waynokahs@hotmail.com. Thank you for your help - again." -- Sandie Olson, Waynoka Historical Society - Email: waynokahs@hotmail.com
