CLASS HISTORY One bright September morning in the fall of 1947, twenty-three juvenile delinquenrs entered the Eastside school. It was six years until we reached the seventh grade under the custody of Miss Eichenberger. Under Mrs, Wheat, who was our eighth grade teacher, our class enlarged to the number of 44. We received our diplomas in the Spring of 1955. Being so meek and shy caused us to study, or try to, but after the great ordeal slowed down we became daring. As underclassmen we had but one goal--to get to the top of the heap or, in other words, to be a Mighty Senior. The freshman class was one of the largest classes to turn out for football. Those out were: Butch O'Connor, Tom Samsel, Stan Hurley, Monte Plummer, Gary Lindstrom, Larry Lindstrom, Mickey Bowen, Duane Waterland, and Jim Helgeson. The freshman year started the first of the Football Day. Our Sophomore year found us getting more and more into school activities and less horsing around. We enter- tained the school by putting on the first freshman-sophomore one-act plays. Upperclassmen at last, our junior year was highlighted by the high school carnival, when two junior candidates for king and queen reigned superior for the evening. They were Beverly Quenaer and Larry Lindstrom. The junior class play was a murder drama, The Night of January l6th, which turned out very successful, along with our Junior Prom which was given in honor of the graduating seniors. As seniors our first duty was to order our announcements and calling cards, and our graduation pictures were taken. Our Senior play, Father Knows Best, was a howling success. We held our fourth annual Football Day with our senior queen candidate, Lory Bruggeman, being crowned queen of Football Day. The Baker Spartans won another victory and a football dance was held that evening in their honor. Our football team in our senior year consisted of: Butch O'Connor, Gary and Larry Lindstrom, and Tom Samsel, four-year lettermeng Jim Helgeson, Stan Hurley, and Duane Waterland, three-year lettermeng Dick Olson and James Morrow, two-year lettermeng and Jack McCauley, one-year letterman. Stan Hurley and Tom Samsel co-captained the Baker Spartans when they won the Class B District Basketball Championship for the first time. Jack McCauley received one of four piano scholarships given in the entire state by Montana State University at the State Music Festival. The Junior class honored us at their annual Junior Prom. The Senior royalty for the evening were Carol Hatton and Jim Helgeson, queen and king and Beverly Quenzer, Lory Bruggeman, Larry Lindstrom, and Stan Hurley, their attendants. Of the twenty-three students who entered the first grade together, sixteen of us are graduating together. They are: Lory Bruggeman, Joan Carmichael, Danny Kohler, Ralph Finch, Francis Griffith, Carol Hatton, Jim Helge- son, Mary Howe, June Kreager, Virginia Losing, Bette Moline, James Morrow, Beverly Quenzer, Reuben Scheuf- fele, Butch O'Connor, and Monte Plummer. Now, we are eagerly looking forward to commencement when we will receive our diplomas and happily, yet regretfully, leave Baker High, knowing, however, that we have profitted by her careful guidance and instruction. The disagreements and troubles are forgotten and lasting friendships remain among the members of the class of '59. We are grateful to the faculty, who by their efficient and capable guidance, have enabled us to become edu- cated and useful citizens of our country. They deserve our admiration, praise and thanks.
