THE RANCHESTER HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT COUNCIL STUDENT COUNCIL Student government in the school is a very im- portant and very educational thing. Our student council this year has been active in planning part- ies and work on the ‘‘R”. It is the student council’s job to make a calendar of events for the school year. First of all at the beginning of the year was the work on the “R”. It was whitewashed and partially filled in with rocks. A party sponsored by the stu- dent council was given for Dayton and Big Horn high schools. The party was a success, but because cf the Armistice Day football game the next day. few Dayton and Big Horn boys were able to attend. The student council will also have a Sadie Haw- kins Day party in the spring. Officers elected at the beginning of the year were Bob Lyman, president; Margaret Kukuchka, vice president; Dona Reed, secretary; and Carol Carter, treasurer. David Hallowell. Grade 10. I.AST YEAR’S PROM Last year’s annual Rustler’s ball, given April 22. was truly a success. The hall was decorated in beautiful, bright col- ors, with a realistic Spanish scene throughout, in- cluding table decorations. Small tables were plac- ed along the edge of the dance floor, and two couples were assigned to each table. Each table’s centerpiece included two miniature Spanish hats, which the girls kept as souvenirs. The south side of the hall had three archways and a brick wall along the bottom. On the stage was a big fan. All was designed by Robert Town- send. All the girls looked so lovely in their beautiful formals. and all the boys looked very handsome too! If I must say so myself! Music was furnished by Duke Downey and his orchestra. We Seniors of 1951 wish to thank all the won- derful people who helped us make the Rustler's ball a success last year. —Betty Lou Goodill, Grade 12. —22—

THE OFFICE PRACTICE CLASS TAKES DICTATION FROM MR. EAST OFFICE PRACTICE CLASS Sit down and get ready to take dictation girls!! These are the opening words of this class every day. Anyone who would accidentally look into the com- mercial room might think that the world was com- ing to an end. and fast!!! Why? Because in this class there are six girls, and their teacher is a man. In office practice class there are quite a few things taught—which do, and do not, relate to office work. Griping is one of the specialties which exceeds any- thing else. Overheard one day (by someone who was listening through the keyhole): “Do we have to have this old stuff again??” T don’t see why we can’t have something besides shorthand once in a while!!” “No. I haven’t got my eighteen pages of practice work done yet!” Every six weeks when report cards come out. you can hear loud bangs coming from the typing room. This is caused by the books flying around the room. Why?? Grades have dropped again. Even though there are some people who think that this is the worst class possible, we have come to the conclusion that we might miss not getting to exercise our lungs with “gripes” if the class were not taught. We have also racked our brains and come up with the idea that Mr. East is learning some of the why and wherefores of the six girls in his class—but really we aren’t as bad as we sound — or are we??? —Margaret Kukuchka. Grade 12 and Carol Carter. Grade 11. INITIATION AS SEEN BY A FRESHMAN The Freshman initiation as I saw it was a lot of fun. At eight forty-five, Friday morning, we all assembled at the gymnasium to await our fate. First we Freshmen were painted with lipstick, which the Seniors graciously applied. Then we gave a series of short plays in which the players were dressed as comic-book characters. After that, the fun did begin; we were provided with balloons which we were to blow until they broke. Then we removed our shoes and walked over some macar- oni. which had been spread over some newspapers. After going back to school to eat lunch, we went up to the “R” on the hill to fill it in with rocks and whitewash it. About three-thirty we quit and met at the gymnasium, where we were assigned to dif- ferent cars to go to the picnic at Tongue River Canyon. At five o’clock everyone started for the canyon, where we had the picnic supper. After singing some songs around the campfire, we climbed into our busses and started for home. All in all. I think everyone had a good time at the Freshman initia- tion. —Roy Powers. Grade 9. —23—
