FRANK SZCZYS, WHO FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS HAS FAITHFULLY SERVED OUR PORTALS OF DESTINY, WE DEDICATE THIS BOOK. Mr. Szczys in the course of his teaching here has devoted much of his time and effort to the success of Bottineau High School. At the conclusion of this school year he is to enter the United States armed forces and will most assuredly be missed by the senior class, who makes this book possible, and also the rest of Bottineau High School. May luck be with him! Page 2 Page 3 ll CLARENCE CHRISTIANSON Principal B.A., Concordia College: Summer Session U. of N. D. and Minn. FRANK SZCZYS History and Physical Education B.S., U. of N.

Page 4 ASS Senior Class History The average senior class is far too young to be able to make any specific predictions as to what forces will mold their future destinies, or even for the graduate himself to say what effort he will put forth as to the molding of his own. All answers would only be vague and most of these but transient fancies or romantic occupational infatuations. But outstand- ing incidents and events that were deciding factors in the cast from which they are about to come toward preparing them for the future mold they are about to enter can definitely be reminisced. The class in question, the seniors of l942., has always been decidedly conserva- tive. The male seems to be the dominating gender as the respective class presidents have been Howard Long, Earl Crandall, James Ooley, and the present, Owen Finstad. Outstanding accomplishment as freshmen was the development of an A-l Junior Basket- ball team, organized and coached by Otis LeGrande. Owen Finstad at center, Loy Barbour and Jimmy Ooley at guards, Earl Crandall and Eddie Engebretson at forwards formed the nucleus of the team that placed second in the Junior District Tournament. They were nosed out by Rugby in a hard fought game, the finals. Score was 20-15, and the beginning of a personal traditional rivalry between Rugby and Bottineau which has yet to see an end. Other members of the team were Roland Graff, OlevFerm, Morris Siverson, Duane Riley and Junior Marty. The major achievement as sophomores again came in the form of sports, when the sopho- mores contributed a total of 28 points toward winning first place in the County Track Meet. Earl Crandall contributed l3 points, Clifford Marchand, lO, and Owen Finstad, 5. Among these three sophomores there were enough points to easily place third, being only four points short of second, thus points contributed by the rest of the school gave Bottineau first place by a large margin. As a whole, the seniors really came into their own when, under the able business manage- ment of Doris Johnson and tactful supervision of Miss Flann, the class sponsored and pro- duced a Junior-Senior Prom, the likes of which had long since been seen and the day will be egually distant before they see its equal. The prom itself was held amid elaborate decora- tions erected in the gymnasium, the ceiling was a blue sky with yellow stars diffused over its surface, contrasted below by little rock gardens, and the dance floor itself resembling an open court. As seniors, it has been our extreme pleasure to undertake the responsibility of making and producing this annual. All has been success under the editorship of Roland Graff and the supervision of Miss Asheim. The business men have contributed ads generously -- and realizing the pressure that is continually put on the business and professional men, espe- cially in these trying times, we want here to express our whole-hearted thanks. It is the hope of the seniors that this annual meets with your approval. Through the joint efforts of all members of the class it has been made possible. And in this hope we would like to consider it an authentic achievement. And with the conclusion of class exercises, baccalaureate services, and graduation will come to a close another chapter in the history of Bottineau High School. At this, an exulted jubilence is felt, combined with more than a little regret, because for many of us it means a severing of the bonds which for four years has held the central attention of our minds and bodies. So with a word of farewell, we leave you with this thought, teachers, school board, and community: Don't feel that your attentions and support and teachings have been in vain, for the seniors have been appreciatively receptive to all.

During the first part of the year, the Glee Club was under the direction of Miss Helen Flann until her resignation when Miss Elizabeth Hiatt took over the duties of Glee Club director. A special group of twenty-five members received excellent rating at the district contest in Minot this spring. The trio - Harriette Thorleifson, Alma Dunderland, and Ethel Brandvold-also received an excellent rating. The sextette consisting of Lorraina Mongeon, Alma Dunderland, Emalu Nero, Harriette Thorleifson, Elizabeth Renning, and Ethel Brandvold provided entertainment for many social functions of the school. A formal concert was presented by the entire Glee Club May first.

In the past year, the Bottineau High School Band, under the direction of Mr. C. M. Christianson, has made great progress over bands of past years. Last fall, Mr. Christianson took over the duties of band director but without very inviting prospects. In the course of the year, he has obtained many new instruments and enlarged the organization to the present 48 pieces. New uniforms were purchased early in May for the entire band. On the fifteenth of May the band attended the Spring Festival at Minot along with other such organizations and made a very impressive showing. Two soloists - baritone and cornet-advanced to the National Regional Contest at Aberdeen, South Dakota. Virgil Vikan received first place in the baritone solo division and Larry Christianson placed second in the cornet solo. With the band losing only seven members through graduation, prospects for future years are very favorable. MR. C. M.

Last year, the play, Black Harvest, won second place in the state contest at Grand Forks. Frank Russell, who was the leading character in this play, was chosen as the best serious actor in this state.

The contest plays this year were Dark Wind and Which is the Way to Boston? The characters in Dark Wind were Dorothy Helland, Lorraina Mongeon, Prudence Ertresvaag, and Maurice Zimmer. The cast' of Which is the Way to Boston? was Helen Schei, Vivian Vikan, Owen Finstad, and Bob Gifford. A comedy, presented by the Junior Playmakers, was Not Quite Such a Goose. The cast was Murray Page, Colleen Trent, Joyce Vinje, Peggy Benson, and Gene Wunderlich.

As a service project to the school the club chose to redecorate the teachers' room, and as a service to the community they did Red Cross work. ln addition to their active service program, the club has sponsored several social activities for members, and by means of various public entertainment they have earned money to purchase needed equipment for the department. lt is a nation- wide organization and is well organized throughout the state. The District Jamboree for the clubs, held in Minot, provided an opportunity for the club members to know each other better and exchange ideas about their clubs. All girls enrolled in Home Economics are eligible for membership. The club officers are Harriette Thorleifson, president, Colleen Trent, vice president and program chairman, Gail Leslie, secretary, Beverly Rasche, treasurer. Page 20 F. F.

To instigate closer collaboration between agricultural fathers and their future farmer sons, a successful father and son banquet was held under the auspices of the school in the Home Economics division. After this successful event, Mr. Holstrom began to shape and organize his livestock judging team for entry in the state judging contests at Fargo. We wish them success. F. F. A.

Page 22 ATHLETICS Coaching Stall CLARENCE HOLSTROM FRANK SZCZYS Coach Clarence Holstrom, ably assisted by Mr. Frank Szczys, has played a large part in boosting the Bottineau High School Athletic Department to its present standard. Mr. Holstrom took over the duties of coach at Bottineau High School in the winter of I94O when our regular coach was forced to leave. ln the course of his work as coach the high school teams have shown a decided improvement. Mr. Szczys also has devoted much of his time to assisting Mr. Holstrom and his help is much appreciated.

'X Football and Basketball Summary Last fall prospects for the gridiron season at Bottineau High School appeared very poor, with the return of only three lettermen. By the end of the season, however, the Braves proved to be tough competition for any of their oppo- nents. ln the earlier games of the season, the team had much trouble and dropped their first two contests to the Minot High School Magicians, l94l State Class A champions, and the Kenmare Honkers, 25-6. The Braves obtained their first win over Mohall by a score of I4-O. lt was the second time in the history of the school that Bottineau High School beat Mohall, last year being the first time. In their second home game, the Braves won their second conference game by routing Stanley High School, 47-O. ln the next game, Minot College Beaver Kits played the Braves at Minot, and a win here would have given the Braves a tie for the conference title. Unfor- tunately, the Beaver Kits started fast and built up a 19-O lead at the half time, the Minot team went on to win, 27-6. The highlight of this game was the brilliant 85 yard kick-off return by Stewart of Bottineau for our only touchdown in the closing two minutes. The last two games of the season, the Braves defeated a tough Cando team, 34-O, on Cando's home field, but lost to Rugby, our traditional rival, 7-O. The Rugby game was played at Bottineau on a snow-covered field. From Bottineau, Marchand and Orm- berg received positions on the first all-conference team. BASKETBALL After quite a successful football season, the Braves turned to basketball, and although their record was not impressive, they displayed some fine exhibitions in the course ofthe season. The best game of the schedule was undoubtedly against Minot College Beaver Kits. ln this contest the score was close throughout, being tied at the half-time and three-quarter mark. The Braves built up a three-point lead with but two minutes remaining, but Minot came back strong and rallied to a 35-27 victory. Barbour for Bottineau and Peterson for Minot were leading scorers. ln a game against St. John at Bottineau, the Braves emerged victorious 16-15, this game was played with only one regular for the Braves. Against Rugby, defending Class B champions, Bottineau dropped a Zl-l6 decision. The Panthers led throughout, being ahead 20-7 at the beginning of the last quarter. At this point, the Bottineau offense began working and put on a determined rally which fell short by a five point margin, the final score being 2l-l6. Ooley for Bottineau and Knutson for Rugby were outstanding. At Bottineau, the Braves avenged an earlier defeat by Dunseith, downing them easily 3l-l7. Barbour and Graff scored ll and I2 points, respectively. The Braves were challenged by Minnewaukan for the right to enter the District Tournament and ran wild, winning 36-15. Barbour, Neimeyer and Graff scored all but two of the points: Barbour was selected as Bottineau's representative on the all-district team. Page 30 swf? 8. H. S.
