CHINOOK 1958 Published by THE JUNIOR CLASS Western Montana College of Education Dillon, Montana to VOLUME FIFTY85721 FOREWORD In every college class, in every extra-curricular activity, and in every part of a college career, to torch of knowledge—of experience—burns and becomes increasingly brighter. After four years of college education, the light from the torch of the Seniors shines so illustriously that they are able, as teachers, to spark the growing candles of young students. It is the privilege of all graduates from an education school to transfer a portion of the light from their torches of knowledge to the students they teach. The torches of the students at Western grow brighter as each year passes. The light of knowledge and experience becomes more powerful with each additional year. Richard de Bury said, "You, O Books, are the golden vessels of the temple . .. burning lamps to be held ever in the hand." A college student becomes acquainted with many books: school-books, recreational books and, even more important, the Book of Life. It is from these books, these burning lamps, that the light illuminating from the student's torch of knowledge is increased. May the years at Western have opened an intellectual light that will burn brightly throughout all the years to come.

The building program has been completed. Activities which promise to become traditions have been introduced. Even more important, there has been an increased friendliness among students and faculty. Not one of these would have been possible without the encouragement, help, and approval of Western's hard-working President. With sincere gratitude for the work he has done this year for Western, the 1958 Chinook staff proudly dedicates this book to Dr. James E. Short, our President. We earnestly hope that under his leadership and guidance, Western will continue to grow in the future as it has this year.A Message From the President In the future as you look back over the years you will have a wide choice of memories. Some of these might be a trip to Los Angeles, a trip to Kansas City, the new buildings on the campus, your grade in Humanities. You cannot now know which of your experiences here at Western will be important to your future. Therefore, let us not minimize any of them. We should rightfully assume that you are a better person for having been here—we hope Western is a better place because you were here. Ranted £. Short PRESIDENT JAMES E. SHORT (5)CAMPUS COMMUNITY CENTER From now on Western's new College Union will be the center of extra-curricular, recreational, and social life on the campus. For many years students will enjoy the spacious lounge with its beautiful fireplace. The large ballroom will be the scene of many dances sponsored by campus organizations. The snack bar will always be a congregating place for students and faculty. The book store, recreation, music and reading rooms, student and faculty organization meeting rooms, and other fine facilities make Western's College Union truly a college ''living room.''

Flores “3 Uttifkt« candt. of understanding, in tliine heart, u hich sha Knot L put out. ” £jrai 33, 20 February 21 was a day of sadness at Western, and throughout Montana, because of the death of Mrs. Zella K. Flores, well known Western teacher. Those who knew or worked with Mrs. Flores realize that her torch of knowledge that shone so illustriously and brightly sparked the candle of many students during her career. Her vivacious personality will long be remembered by her friends and students. Mrs. Flores was always cheerful and brave. In fact, it was usual for her friends to comment on her "wonderful spirit" even at the time of great physical suffering. It is conceded that her willingness to help others, when not well herself, and her ability to be cheerful have left for all a fine example of courageous living. ( 12)FACULTY Genevieve Albertson M. A.

(66)GO WESTERN DAY "Go Western, beat Eastern!" was the cry of Western students and faculty members during the first celebration of a new tradition on Western's campus. The idea of Go Western Day was originated by Professor Ralph Kneeland and carried out by the Rodeo Club and "M" Club in an effort to stimulate school spirit for the express purpose of defeating Eastern at the Western-Eastern basketball game. The theme "Go Western!" was carried out in true Western spirit as students and faculty members donned authentic western costumes and mannerisms for the entire celebration. A beard growing contest for Western's male students was one of the major events of the day. Prizes were awarded for the most unique and for the longest beard. Pete Glennie won the award for the longest beard, and Bob Butorovich received the prize for the most unique beard. Western won its game, 84-81. At half-time a western "mellowdrama" was presented by the "M" Club and Rodeo Club. The skit, which further carried out the "Beat Eastern" theme, was written and narrated by Frank Hull. In the cast were Betty Whalen, Bud Shuman, and Larry Staton. Led by the Pep Band and the cheerleaders, the fans showed enthusiasm and spirit at the game. Following the game and concluding the day's activities, a western dance, attended by approximately 175 people, was held in the Rec Hall. "Real live" western music was provided. The spirit and enthusiasm shown for Go Western Day successfully established it as a new tradition on Western's campus. It is anticipated that this tradition will be one of the most outstanding on campus in the years to come.

A new group of men was initiated and co-operation between the members was at an all-time high. The colorful signs in the gymnasium netted a large profit for the club. Several deserving seniors received lettermen's jackets in recognition of their outstanding participation and because of their worthiness in assisting with the business of the "M" Club. A new and more effective constitution was drafted, and one of the most successful Homecoming dances was held. A delightful melodrama was staged on "Go Western" day, and the "M" Club skit placed second in the 1957 Vodvil. The Big "M" is in splendid condition—thanks to the efforts of every member. The sponsors, Mr. Straugh and Mr. McCormick, have worked diligently for the activities of the "M" Club. The officers for the 1957-58 year are Frank Hull, president; Bob DeMarois, vice president; Bernie Bissell, secretary-treasurer. ALL-CONFERENCE Bob DeMarois, senior, was the only Bulldog to be selected for a berth on the All-Conference team. Bob, playing his fourth year at an end position for Western, hails from Anaconda, Montana. This year he was leading scorer and pass receiver for the Bulldogs with 22 points. Congratulations, Bob, for a job well done! (79)FOOTBALL Forty gridiron prospects greeted Coach George McCormick in his second year as head mentor of the Bulldogs. Although the prospects were larger both in size and number, they were very green. This fact alone accounts for the Bulldogs not finishing higher in the Conference than third place. Western dropped their opener at Rexburg, Idaho, to the Ricks College Vikings 22-7. The Bulldogs led throughout the first half, but a fired-up Ricks team came back in the second half with a safety and two fourth period touchdowns for the final score of 22-7. Westminster Parsons handed the Bulldogs their second loss in Vigilante Field by scoring touchdowns in the first, second and third periods and dominating the game throughout. Final score was 26-0. Western's Homecoming game was marred by the spirited Carroll Saints team who edged the Bulldogs 14-6. With the game only three minutes old Carroll scored the first touchdown of the game and after the conversion led 7-0. The Bulldogs were stopped on the Saints' 11 yard line and Carroll followed up with a 30 yard pass and their second score of the game. Carroll led 14-0 at the half. Although the Bulldogs dominated play in the last half, they were only able to score once. Western traveled to Billings where they unleashed a thundering ground attack to thump the Rocky Mountain Bears 19-6. This was Western's first win in three starts. The power-laden Yellow jackets of Eastern rolled up an impressive 38-14 win over the Bulldogs in Western's last home game. The Yellowjackets capitalized on scoring opportunities in all four periods of play. Western scored once in the third and once again in the final period. Freshmen backs Jim Barber and Mike Murphy each tallied two touchdowns to lead Western to a 39-7 victory over Northern Montana College Lights at Havre. Seniors Larry Anderson and Bob DeMarois each scored once to complete Western's touchdown parade. Western completed its Montana Collegiate play with a 44-6 romp over the Montana School of Mines Orediggers in Naranche Stadium in Butte. Seven Bulldog gridders figured in Western's scoring. The Bulldog gridders closed their 1957 season in a 12-12 stalemate with Malmstrom Air Force Flyers at Harlowton. Five Seniors made their last football appearance for Western in the game: Co-captains Ron Kenison and Bob DeMarois, Larry Anderson, Bernie Bissell. and Bob Singleton. DeMarois and Bissell have earned four football letters, Kenison and Anderson three, and Singleton one.

(82)THE 1957-58 BASKETBALL SEASON Facing one of their toughest schedules ever, the Bulldogs opened their 29-game regular basketball season with a 102-74 victory over Ricks College on November 26. Ricks won the following meeting, in their only victory over Western in a four-game series. Other losses during the season were administered by Malmstrom Air Force Base, Westminster College (three times), Northwest Nazarene College and Rocky Mountain College. A highlight of preconference play was a decisive victory over favored Eastern Washington College at Libby on December 30. In the regular conference season, Western handed Rocky Mountain College their only defeat at their first meeting January 10, by a score of 101-91. In turnabout fashion. Western's only conference loss was received at the hands of Rocky Mountain, 76-67, on February 15. The fast-breaking Bulldogs swept the balance of the conference season, tying Rocky for first place and an invitation to the District No. 5 playoff tournament of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. Held in Nampa, Idaho, the tourney matched Western against a highly-rated College of Idaho team in the first round. Beating C. of I. 70-61, the Bulldog cagers had a much-hoped-for opportunity of again meeting Rocky Mountain College in the championship game. Western proved superior from the opening whistle, leading all the way to a final score of 83-62, and gaining in their own minds a moral right to the conference championship. On the Kansas City with a night train send-off by the band and student body, and the N.A.I.A. national tourney with 31 of the best small college teams in the United States, where the Western quintet set another precedent by defeating their first foe, Assumption College of Worcester, Massachusetts, 86-73. Their next opponent, Coe College, had registered one of the upsets of the tournament by chastising highly-rated Portland University, and went on to defeat the Bulldogs soundly, 103-69. The Players This year's squad members were as fine a group, personally and athletically, as any coach could hope for. Mentor Bill Straugh brought them to championship form during the season. Seniors Ray Scott, Jim Jenkins, and Max Nield each had "moments to remember." Ray, particularly, had field days in each of the four post-season N.A.I.A. games, scoring and playing remarkably well. Gary Cooper was high-point man for the season, netting 636 points in 33 games, with 210 of them in the 10 conference meetings. Sophomores George Nelson, Don Donovan and Jack Dunlap developed wonderfully during the season, giving a bright outlook to the 1958-59 season. Freshmen of real varsity caliber include George Young, Kim Rettig, and Russ Black, and these three added to the sophomores form the larger portion of another championship squad next winter. All-Conference Selections Western placed three men of the five named to the All-Conference basketball team this spring, when the coaches of the six M.C.C. colleges selected an all-star group. Ray Scott, Gary Cooper, and Jim Jenkins were named conference standouts, along with Jim Peterson and Don Steele of Rocky Mountain College, loop cochampions with Western. On the second team, Western's George Nelson led the listing, while Don Donovan received honorable mention in the balloting. (83)THE 1957-1958 BASKETBALL SEASON STATISTICS No. of Re- F.G. F.G. F.G.

For the first time in the history of the Montana Collegiate Conference, the mile run was won by the same person for the 4th consecutive year in 1957. The winner of this honor was Western's outstanding track star, Joe Doohan. Joe Doohan (92)1957 TRACK Western's thin-clads, in their first year under Coach McCormick, recaptured the conference title which they had lost the previous year. The Bulldogs won the annual Montana Collegiate Conference meet at Helena by gathering a total of 70Vi points to far outdistance its Conference foes. Rocky was second with 45, Carroll had 33, Northern had 5, and Eastern had 1 to complete the standings. The cindermen from Western were once again led by Joe Doohan who registered first in the mile and the 880 yard runs for a total of 10 points. Robinson won a first in the 100 yard dash. Wes Wagenaar captured first spot in the low hurdles as did Dunlap in the discus. Mular and King scored a tie for first place honors in the pole vault. The Relay Team registered first place in the Conference by establishing a new record of 3:32.5. The Helena meet closed out a very successful season for the Bulldogs in which they captured four trophies and a Conference title. Congratulations to Coach McCormick and his men. Everyone is proud of the job they did. 1958 TRACK Coach McCormick will be ix inting for more track laurels in 1958 with the return of a large majority of veterans and many new hopefuls. Western is without the services of its outstanding track man, Joe Doohan, lost to the Bulldogs by graduation. Back to bolster the team will be such veterans as Les Paro, Dick Barber, George Nelson, and Wes Wagenaar. Many others such as Phil Robinson, Bill Fairhurst, Bob Butorovich, Larry Varland, Jack Dunlap, and Loren Sullender, all of whom proved their worth in the 1957 season will bolster the team immeasurably. A tremendous asset to Western's track team this year are the two transfers from Ricks College—Wayne Barney and Doug Henninger. As the Chinook goes to press, Western's cinder men are practicing diligently and are hopeful for a most successful season. (93)1957 BASEBALL By Bob Petrino The 1957 Baseball Bulldogs placed second in the Montana Collegiate Conference play-offs held in Helena last May. They beat Carroll in the opening round and lost the championship game to Rocky Mountain College of Billings. In order to advance to the play-offs Western had to beat the Montana School of Mines of Butte. The Bulldogs did this handily behind the great pitching of Garry Rafter and "Sly” Jim Sullivan. In earlier games Western split 2-2 with Ricks of Idaho, dropped a single encounter with M.S.C.'s Bobcats, and blasted their great rivals, the Carroll Saints, by "besting" them 2 out of a 3-game series. The Bobcats had their hands full for most of their game with the Bulldogs, but costly errors in throwing sent Coach Straugh's boys to defeat in the late innings. Western was paced all season by a few stellar performers: Bill Connors and Max Nield in hitting; "Sly" Jim Sullivan, Garry Rafter, and Geary Moran in pitching; Jerry Fox in catching; Petrino, Connors, Palagi, and Wetzsteon, outstanding in fielding. 1957 BASEBALL SCHEDULE Western 0 Ricks 2 Western 2 Ricks 5 Western 10 Ricks 7 Western 7 Ricks Western 8 Carroll .... _ 2 Western 5 Carroll 7 Western 10 Carroll . 3 Western 11 Mines 0 Western 10 Mines 4 Western 2 M.S.C. .. 8 Western 3 Rocky 12 INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL Over eighty Western men participated in this year's intramural basketball program.

This year it was held at Montana State University at Missoula. A full and active schedule provided the club with a busy, successful year. ( 103)THE RODEO CLUB Western's Rodeo Club, which is affiliated with the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association, was organized in January, 1957, and is one of the newest but most active organizations on campus. The purpose of the club is to provide an appreciation of western culture—an alive, expressive culture based on the heritage of the past. In the spring of 1957 the Rodeo Club went into action by participating in two Rocky Mountain District N.I.R.A. rodeos. In competition with 13 Rocky Mountain College teams, Western's team took fifth place honors in the rodeo at Montana State College and seventh place in the Idaho State College rodeo. Individual WMCE members who starred at these rodeos were Bob "Bulldog" Davis who tied for second place in bulldogging and who also excelled in bareback riding and saddle bronc riding, and Les Paro who competed in bare-back riding. At Idaho State College these two men again made an excellent showing along with Liz Pilling, who tied for fourth place in calf tying in the women's division. In conjunction with the "M" Club, the Rodeo Club sponsored "Go Western Day" held February 7, 1958, marking the birth of a new WMCE tradition. The big event on the 1958 agenda was the district N.I.R.A. rodeo held in Dillon, May 3 and 4. Rodeo competition was open to any member of Western's student body. Events for men were held in bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, calf roping, bulldogging, and steer riding. For women the two chief events were calf tying and barrel racing. Prizes were awarded to the first five places in each event. A major prize for the best "all around" cowboy and cowgirl was also awarded. Among the events of the two-day rodeo were a Rodeo Queen contest, a Rodeo Club parade, and an all-school dance. There were prizes awarded for floats and the best mounted individuals in the parade. The winner of the Rodeo Queen contest will be able to participate in the national N.I.R.A. Queen contest. Entertainment at the rodeo was provided by Western's Pep Band and Paul Coffman's Beaverhead County Master Sheriff's Posse who presented an exhibition at the fairgrounds; Western campus organizations operated concessions during the rodeo events. Officers of the club are Les Paro, president; Cal Wearley, vice president; Carolyn Pierce, secretary; and Joyce Housel, treasurer. The sponsor is Dr. Feathers assisted by Mr. George Svetich.

Here are some of them: Cochrane Dam near Great Falls has been completed, adding 60.000 kilowatts of power to the Montana Power system capability. A 161,000-volt transmission line was built from Kerr Dam at Poison to Missoula. Electric and natural gas facilities in many local areas have been modernized or extended to improve service. A microwave communications system to improve electric and natural gas dispatching is nearly complete. The Montana Power Company and its predecessors have been serving Montana since the 1880's.

History-Minded Montana Montana became history-minded at an early period of its existence. The Territory of Montana was created under Act of Congress which was approved May 26, 1864. Only 21 months later Col. Wilbur F. Sanders of Virginia City fame and his associates had brought about the passage of a measure creating an historical society. The first meeting of the organization was held in the office of Dance and Stuart, Virginia City, on Feb. 25, 1865. The first president, temporary and permanent, was Granville Stuart. He also was the first treasurer. H. L. Hosmer was the first historian. The first board of directors was composed of Hosmer, Sanders, Malcolm Clark, Chris P. Higgins and Walter W. DeLacey. F. M. Thompson was chairman of the committee which nominated these officers. Stuart, Thompson and Hosmer were the members of the committee that selected the society's seal. The society was created as exciting history was being made. There wasn't much historical material to work on, except the recollections of the trail blazers themselves. However, the society did take a firm foothold in those early days and has maintained an existence without interruption. For eight years the society depended upon individual effort in the collection of both material and funds. The first legislative appropriation was signed May 7, 1873, and provided for an annual payment of $150 for the purchase of manuscripts and books relating to the territory and for other expenses.
