FORGET US NOT Little characteristics each Senior got, Little things to think of, so you'll forget us not. Judy Arnold remembered for her ability so rare, That when there's Fritz or trouble she's always there. Betty Campbell famous for music and wit, When it comes to telling jokes she'll never quit. We'll remember Barbara Kole for her sneaky way, She can't hide her deviltry, try as she may. Janet Helgeson in days, athletic and smart. Also at night (just ask Denny) she played her part. Marilyn Segebrecht is remembered for her quiet manner, When it came to helping, she deserved a banner. Ken Brattlie in studies didn’t seem prone to shine, Life, love, and sports were more his line. Pants hung low, after girls like a shark, Add hichies and sports, you have Bill Carden's trademark. Ron Cushman, a laughable character, with sports ability rare, Plus he and Sandy made a real cute pair. Sharon Kiely, who a dare would never refuse, We'll remember for her love-life, she'll never lose, Eileen Moen we’ll remember for riots and cute ways, And how she made her nights as fun as her days. When you hear car tires squeal, You'll know Don Dimpfl is behind the wheel. Donna Moyer for her men, especially Kelter Bros. , Also Roger, Hunce and many others. Wesley remember for his slow dragging style, ’ Also remembered for his bluff and wile. Studious, quiet, bashful as can be, This (unless speaking of girls) is Tom Massey. Blonde, nice, with a quick-witted head, Is what about Linda Nelson can be said. Ready for a good time, and full of fun, That is Jo Ann Ranney, the engaged one. If auctioning for cuteness, Linda Gilbertson will sell, P. S. , to her friends, she’s known as Rebel. Snirley Jones, a brain, a riot, a real tire squealer, But when it comes to a favor, she’s a real fair dealer. Romances and brains and a little French blood, Add wit and trouble, you have smart Loris Budd. A little short, a little dark, a little darey, Add a little Ford you have Myers Larry. Karen Powell stands for mischief, is a riot to know, She also stands for sweetness and a lot of blow. Donna Clerkin, talent extraordinary in dates and sports, Gives devilish DJ both good and bad reports. We've had riots and fun and some trouble, ah yes— But friends, forget us not at B. H. S.

 In September, 1955, we the '59 Senior Class charged into the brand new BHS building. We were here for four years and we let the world know of it. Some of this cockiness was knocked (and I mean knocked) out of us, however, on Initiation Day. But we had our advisor, Mr. McReynolds, to protect us so we all pulled through with minor injuries. The people elected to lead our bunch were: President, Bill Carden; Vice President, Ron Cushman; Secretary, Joanne O'Neil; Treasurer, Larry Meyers; Student Council, Lori Budd; and Class Reporter, Linda Gilbertson. Somehow we managed to get through that hectic first year. Well, September '56 and we were back for more. Now we even had some of the other classes agreeing with us that we were doomed for greatness. Some- where between Freshman and Sophomore years Nancy Burkhalter, Joanne O’Neil, and Max Czerwonka took leave of us. Mr. Lippert had the privilege of advising us and our class officers were: President, Ron Cushman; Vice President, Betty Campbell; Secretary, Judy Arnold; Treasurer, JoAnn Ranney; Student Council, Janet Helgeson; and Class Reporter, Lori Budd. Somehow, again we pulled through. Well, '57, and we were big shots now - Juniors! The first big deal was getting our class rings. We'd no more than gotten over our big-headedness from that and zoom we initiated the Freshmen - that was really a riot! We sure scared the poor little devils. And then came our class play, Hillbilly Weddin'. It was pretty great if we do say so ourselves. Finally came the dream of every high school class - Junior Prom. Our Japanese theme, Sayonara, went over big and was really beautiful (expensive, too). Linda Gilbertson and Bill Carden were king and queen. Somewhere along the '57-’58 year we lost Julie Theobald and Dorothy Walstad. Miss Danielson got the honor of being class advisor (notice the gray hair). Our class was steered by: President, Lori Budd; Vice President, Judy Arnold; Secretary, Janet Helgeson; Treasurer, Linda Gilbertson; Student Council, Betty Campbell; and Class Reporter, Linda Nelson. Finally came fall of '58. That dashing class that began in '55 were now on their last legs. We were the big shots of the school, and boy, we knew it. We had a million things to do before we left BHS and we were trying our best to do them well. Our Homecoming was a big success with Karen Powell and Ron Cush- man as king and queen. Leon Marty, Donna Peterson, and Gary Burdick departed from the class and Don Dimpfl entered. The officers privileged to lead this lively class out were: President, Donna Clerkin; Vice President, Gary Burdick; Secretary, Betty Campbell; Treasurer, Janet Helgeson; Student Council, Tom Massey; and Class Reporter, Barb Kole. But before we left we wanted to leave a beautiful memory. So everyone dived into the work of putting out an extra good annual. To top everything off, we had a riot with our Senior Class Play - The Cannibal Queen. Well, '59 came to a close in May. Actually, we did love every minute of our four wonderful years at BHS (almost every minute, that is). This, then, is the background of the proud and mighty seniors of '59.
