Came June, we hysterically leaned from third floor windows shouting, “Yippee! We’re Seniors!” I hat frantic fall found us going to the same foothall games, hut sporting our very own Senior guys galloping to victory, game after game. We came in second in the championship game hut received a “duzy” of a trophy and the boys got their silver footballs. Basketball brought large crowds to the bleachers of the gym and to their feet in the exciting tourneys and tussles with out-of-town teams. It s our year to shine. I his war has made us grow up a little faster, and we leave school to take part in its immensity. School has become a piece of our lives we cannot forget . . . with such carefree memories 1 am sure we shall do our part much better, knowing that the kind of living we cherish most is offered to us in school. She 'Boys Service 1943-44 We cannot give enough recognition to those boys who have gone into the service of our country. There have been so many from our school that it would be impossi- ble to name all and not slight a few. We have, therefore, just listed those who would still be in school if duty had not called first. We are proud to acknowledge you as former Billings High School students. Adams.

Sentor SH.LStory Greeting Grads .... This is the year . . 1944 . . this is the eventful day when we graduate. Gradua- tion! that wonderful day we’ve been struggling for through classes year after year. It’s here . . but all too soon. Remember those blissful!) bewildering daze of our Freshman year. We were big-shots in Junior High, and all the dances and doings were presided over by us. W e were quite proud of it until, as Sophomores, we stepped through the portals dominated by a groovy set of Seniors. What a bunch of Seniors . . we saw action! Assemblies, operettas, clubs, football, basketball, and dances! Through our childish minds glimmered the hope that some day we would be like them. Then our boobv-sox brigade passed into the Junior stage. We doggedly followed the Seniors and ignored the Sophomores. W e became important to school activities, and our pep and nerve-racking boisterousness at games became the talk of the town. 4 18 ►-
