The FFA under the direction of Wayne Gilman has proved to be very helpful to B.C.H.S. once again this year. The Future Farmers of America helped to promote as well as establish vocational training in agriculture. A few select individuals were picked to go to Kansas City to represent B.C.H.S. in a conven- tion. The trip proved to be very enjoyable and is being looked forward to by other members wishing to attend the convention next year. 1- FHA: Cindy Tucker, Rayleen Merry, Ellen Schneider, Aldalee Kivinen, Bernadette Stewart, Resa Bruns, Ria Miller, Shannon Donovan, Verona Miller, Pamela MacDon- ald, Advisor; 2.

Led by Darrell Johnson, the Art Club- bers worked on the house to help earn money for the upcoming year. This event helped make Halloween a big event in Dillon, and the children waited for hours to experience an exciting tour. The house was filled with loud screams by the visi- tors as the Art Clubbers put on a realistic show. ARTY SPOOKS 12 Julie Flynn carefully eyes her work as she prepares a portrait in art. 2.

Who are these muscular men in blue sweaters with the big gold B’s? They’re members of the elite B-Club. B-Club has had many different activities during the year 1982-83, under the leadership of Jeff Mayfield. Most members agreed that the initiation was the big event. New members had to bring dates and perform any task that an old member assigned them. This annual event could make mice out of men. 4. B-Club Initiates, First Row: Shawn Bott, Chuck Roberts.

NOBODY DOES IT BETTER One of the many admired and respected clubs of BCHS, S Club has had a super year in many ways. S Club lived up to its name by helping out the community whenever possible. Their year started with an initiation of new members, help- ing out at many banquets, Christmas tree sales and the Sweetheart dance with Key Club, and the much appreciat- ed teacher appreciation week. Many S Clubbers traveled to Missoula for the annual convention and returned home victorious, receiving two of the three awards given. S Clubs Motto; “service with a smile,” was remembered by all and made this year a superior one for everybody. 1. Performing one of her many duties as secretary, Julie Stubbs takes the roll. 2.

Headed by the talented Ken Kolski, the Key Club has gained the respect of Montana schools by retain- ing a number one status. The Key Clubbers under the reign of president Randy Gerringa have been given this rating because of their devotion to attending numerous Tuesday meetings and their responsibility. The Key Clubbers have spent the year selling apples, Christmas trees and hot dogs at tournament time, as well as working at concessions during sporting activi- ties. The Key Club also attended a convention in Billings, discussed subjects and topics that they have experienced and met with Key Clubs from other towns in Montana. 1.

LEADERS FOR TOMORROW Student Council, under the leadership of president Don Hicketh- ier, had a very successful year. Advisor Dave Cypher kept the meetings in order and lent a helping hand to all. Members attend- ed a state convention in Helena, put on a leadership workshop for class and club officers and brought many different assemblies to our school. Another job of the student council is to organize and carry out Government Day. This day marks the end of a school year and the student body officers, class officers, and cheerleaders are elected for a new term. This day is an interesting and fun experience for all that is kept running smoothly through the hard work put in by the student council. 1.

When they weren’t working concession stands for the football and basketball games, they were doing skits for the pep assemblies. The club also took pep buses to Butte for the Divisional Tournament. They gave a lot of inspiration and encouragement to the athletic teams they supported. 1. Always glad to put in a helping hand are Jean Flynn and Shannon Focher. 2.

A talented cast of forty people kept the audience laughing. Lee Christianson, Derek Kamp, and Brad Thomas were Duke, Hawkeye, and Trapper John, the zany yet very talented doctors, while Jodie Hegsted portrays the strictly military Margaret Houlihan. A successful play, M A S H wouldn’t have gone over as well without the talented efforts of Mrs. Thomas and the stage crew! 1. The 1983 play cast take their well deserved bows after an excellent performance. 2 Chris Petersen does a very realistic and entertaining job of portraying General Hammond. 3. As one of the Koreans.

Their sparkling teeth and well-known precision delighted audiences throughout the year Beginning the day with early morning practices made them look their best on the floor. They performed with pride and dignity and earned a standing ovation with their halftime performance at the Class C Tourna- ment. A lot of the credit belongs to Terri Stanisich for the long hours of training she put in, all making the year end in excellence. 4.

One squad cheered for wrestling and girls basketball, the other cheered for boys basketball and foot- ball. This group of girls will always be known for their famous “Hark a Lark” skit. They performed this skit for a few assem- blies, and it was a big hit. These squads can be proud of their many achievements and will be looked for in the upcoming years as Varsity cheerleaders. 1. J.V. Girls Basketball and Wrestling Cheerleaders: Shannon Donovan. Melissa Dickey, Tana Jo Patrick. Kelly Peck. 2. Leading the Beavers to a victory are Janet Jones, Shannon Donovan, and Melissa Dickey. 3. J.V. Wres- tling and Girls Basketball Cheerleaders: Janet Jones, Shannon Donovan, and Melissa Dickey. 4. J.V.

WHEN ONLY THE BEST IS GOOD ENOUGH There are many characteristics that make a good cheerleader. Hard working, dedicated, enthusiastic, energetic, and responsible are just a few of them. In other words, being a cheer- leader isn’t always fun and glory, as many peo- ple may think. This year’s Varsity Girl’s Basket- ball and Wrestling Cheerleaders started practic- ing in June, went to cheerleading camp, and spent the summer making up cheers, having moneymakers, and getting prepared for the next seven months of cheering. Their hard work was well worth it, for it was appreciated greatly by the athletes they supported. This group of girls played an important role in BCHS. They couldn’t have completed their many accomplishments without the joint efforts of their two advisors; Pam MacDonald, and Robert Sawyer. 26 1.

Everybody expects a lot out of the five varsity rah-rahs, and Marti Oram’s cheerleaders didn’t let anyone down. The lockers were decorated for every game, and the players could always count on these girls to supply them with goodies for their long road trips. When it came to precision, not many groups could even compare. With a smile on their face, and laughter in their hearts, this special squad was as inspiration to everyone they came in contact with. 1. The Boys Basketball rah-rahs seem to be entertained by the wonders of nature. 2. Varsity Boys Basketball Cheerleaders, First Row: LeAnn Hilton, Karissa Hol- land. Second Row: Heidi Lowell.

Twice a year the student body dresses up in many different varieties to show their spirit. It adds a spice of life to our school. One of the more exciting events is the all famous greaser day. On this holiday the classes are filled with excitement for the upcoming Butte Central-Dillon Beavers game. The halls are filled with old fashions somewhat resembling the 1950’s. This week is a lot of fun and enjoyment for the Beavers, and is appreciated by the Beaver football and basketball players. 1. Who are these masked villians? The sopho- mores masquerade as potatoheads in the greas- er day assembly. 2. Tom McEldery with his new found friend look mischievious on “Kids day”. 3.

IN THE SPOTLIGHT Each year the different organiza- tions of BCHS sponsor events which are topped off with the crowning of the “one” honored guest. These events have be- come yearly traditions and have always been held as a great hon- or for those involved. BCHS is proud to have these wonderful people do such a fine job of re- presenting us and making our school look good. Royalty: 1. Debbie Buckley, Homecom- ing Queen. 2.

Their time was well spent running the clocks, keeping match and team scores, and supporting the BC.H.S. wrestling team. Fun was mixed with work and the 1982 1983 Mat Maids ended up with a great year. 1.

BRING OUT YOUR BEST The annual Powder Puff Football game was played on Friday September, 24. This is a traditional rivalry game between the Senior girls and the Junior girls. The Senior team got hot and they shut out the Juniors 14 -0. Some very enthusiastic Senior boys played the role of cheerleaders, and some equally ex- cited Sophomore and Junior boys were Blue Boys, the half- time entertainment. Overall, the day was a success and lots of fun for everyone. The G.R.A. program here at B.C.H.S. helps girls to improve their competitive skills as well as enhance their self worth. The head of G.R.A. program is Miss Dicken- son who is the girls Health and P.E. teacher at B.C.H.S. These days vol- leyball is becoming more a sport than a hobby, and some Seniors took it serious enough to be coached by the college girls that teach volleyball at W.M.C. The G.R.A. program which started at three-forty and ended at five-forty in the afternoon took place on Mon- days, Wednesdays, and Fridays. 1.

They started out slow but as the season went on they got tougher and showed their character. The Lady Beavers ended the season with a 13 12 record. They placed third in the Divisional Tournament, which was held this year in Dillon, earning a spot in the State Tournament. Jennifer Winden, a junior, and Missy Wynecoop, a senior, were named to the First Team All-Conference and the second team All-State teams to honor the Beavers. With lots of returning letterman next year, the Beavers should be contenders for league hon- ors. 1. Junior starter Jennifer Winden stops and pops underneath the basket. 2.

They won the games they were suppose to lose, and they lost some heart- breaking games they should have won. When the Beavers were hot they were really hot. They proved that was true after they slaugh- tered the Stevensville Yellowjackets, who were runner-ups at state this year. But sometimes they just couldn’t get things together as they lost a couple of easy ones to Butte Central and Poison. With a lot of returning lettermen next year the Beavers have a good shot at the gold. Honoring the Beavers in ALL-CONFERENCE stats were juniors Jeff Mayfield, Keith Rebish, Todd Allen and senior Gil Stod- dard. The Beavers are sure to be the team of the future. FOR GLORY 44 1.

This year Dillon was overlooked because they were young and inexperienced, having six freshmen wrestlers and only one senior and two junior lettermen returning to the squad. This was a rebuilding year if there ever had been one. Big “D” had his work cut out for him but that didn’t seem to matter. He took his wrestlers, worked with them, and taught them every- thing they needed to know. They went on to place second in the subdivisionals and qualified twelve members of the varsity squad for the state tournament.

They played a lot of tough games, but they learned from their mistakes, practiced, and improved. The Beavers started the year slow, but by the end of the year they were steaming. They ended the season with a 15-10 record, which is one of th best records the boys have had for quite a few years. At the end of the regular season, the Beavs were sitting right in the middle of the conference pack, but they were determined to go to State. They lost their first game to Butte Central, making it 3 on the year, but they would meet again. The Beavers won the next two games and finally defeated Butte for the third place trophy. Our guys went to State and fell by 28 the first game, but that didn’t bother the Beavs as they won the next two games, became the consolation champions, and brought home the fourth place trophy. Beaver southpaw, Brad Thomas, was selected to the First Team all Tournament Team, and also the Second Team All-Conference Team. Junior center Andy Hovren was voted onto the second Team All-Tournament and All-Conference squads. Randy Nelson, senior standout, was voted onto the First Team All-Conference Crew. The Beavers should be top contenders again next year as they will have alot of returning letterman and many new prospects. 1, Todd Allen pushes and shoves for a good shot. 2.

A larger than usual turnout of underclassmen set hopes for a bright future. The Beavers weren’t dominant but they made their presence known with Clark Spracklen in the 800, Todd Allen in the high jump, 300 hurdles, 110 hurdles, 400 meters, Randy Nelson in the 100, 200, and long jump, Mark Anderson in the 110 hurdles, Shawn McGin- ley in the 300 hurdles, who all went to state. With the attitude of the team this year they are sure to be great in the future. 1.

The administra- tion did a good job of providing a complete, well rounded education for every student at BCHS. Our school board made many decisions important to the continuation of the program at BCHS. 1. Mr. Ankeny works hard to complete the agenda for the school board meeting. 2. Making the late announcements is just another part of Mrs. Krause's day. 3. Mr. Wilkerson starts planning the activity schedule for the 83 84 school year. 4.

Secretary Julie Krause checks up on the students on the absent list. NOBODY DOES IT BETTER The janitors at BCHS put in many long hours keeping our school in good shape. Sweeping halls between classes, cleaning boards, and fixing radiators were just a few of the jobs they took on. Without these people in our school, things wouldn’t be the same. The bus drivers of BCHS provided transportation for many urban and rural students. Neither rain nor sleet nor snow stopped these wonderful workers at BCHS. Students arrived late only a few times due to hazardous roads and sub-zero temperatures. Our dedicated bus drivers were up before the crack of dawn and on the road. Emerson Selway and Dee Eddy put in alot of extra time delivering the Beavers to their out of town activities. They also kept the routes on time. 1.

The staff at BCHS had one purpose in mind. That purpose was to create a yearbook that would bring back memories of the year’s activities at BCHS. The new advisor, Mrs. MacDon- ald lent her experience to the first year staff members, while bringing up new ideas to the rest of the staff. Chief Editor, LeAnn Hilton, aided the staff by correcting lay outs, caption copy, and body copy. The end product was well worth the time and effort put into it. I.

Darrell Johnson put in many extra hours help- ing students work to their potential. Some of the activities included ceram- ics, oil painting, pastels, and silk screening. The various levels of art ranged from Basic Fundamentals for the beginners, to Creative Arts for the more advanced students. Students had to be able to cope with a few failures in order to improve and advance to a higher level. 1. Concentration is the key to every artists success and is demonstrated here by Dar- rell Johnson. 2. Bernadette Reynolds shows Robbie Jones the finer points about using colored pencils. 3. Janet Pettit takes a moment to collect her thoughts before continuing on her water color. 4. Sheryl Johnson and Tom McEldery put their hands to work to create a masterpiece. 5.

IT’S OUR “BUSINESS” The business classes at BCHS taught the students how to manage money, balance a check book, and various other things involved with the management of money. They toured many of the local businesses and observed how they operate. Most of the students are planning a career in business. There are other classes offered at BCHS to help them prepare for their business careers such as accounting. They also had to keep finiancial records for a family which included such things as paying bills, writing checks, and managing the family’s money. 1. Andy Iddles fills out his ledger for accouting. 2. Debbie Buckley closes her eyes as a sign of relief after finishing her simulation packet. 76 3.

Learning procedures and driving in the simulators are just part of the experiences involved. Some of the finer parts of driving include parallel parking, emergency stops, and changing the tire. The students dread taking the drivers test, but after many months of Mr. Donovan’s teaching, the students are ready for anything. 1. Moving out of the way of the Drivers Ed. car. Konnie Rebish.

The teaching staff tried many new and different approaches to teach their students the subjects of literature and grammar. The students furthered their knowledge of literature by reading books, novels, and short stories, acting out plays, and writing poetry. Term papers also helped students expand their horizons. With the excel- lent teaching staff at BCHS, English became a very enjoyable subject. 1. Mr. Hull explains the social and political issues discussed in Huckleberry Finn to his Ju- nior English class. 2. Senior English student Dennean Eddy tries to concentrate on read- ing her grammar. 3.

Jay Marchesseault. Leisa Morse and Kathy Greer, pay close attention to their lecture in English III. w The guidance counselors at BCHS had one thing in mind when they started out this year. They would be available to the stu- dents at any time to help guide them in the right direction or lend a listening ear for their problems. They help many students set goals and help them achieve them. Miss Oram worked with the Special Education kids. They learned about the self-help surviv- al skills as well as learning how to ride bikes and many other things. Mr. Zink took care of the scheduling problem and helped in the planning of careers. The computer has helped students choose their career and the college they plan to attend. 1. Guidance Counselors Mr. Zink and Miss Oram discuss a few things about next year’s schedule. 2. Mr. Zink works hard to get the scholarships in order for graduation. 4. Miss Oram is tying up her usual daily work schedule for her Special Ed kids. 5.

SKILLS FOR Home Ec. was a class open to everyone. Besides the usual cooking and sewing, the classes visited the day care center where they worked with the children and learned how to care for them. They also cooked meals for the teachers luncheons. Mrs. MacDonald brought new ideas to the class, and helped the students with their sewing projects. The marriage and family classes held another mock wedding. They studied many different areas dealing with married and family life. The students involved in the Home Ec. classes gained valuable information they will use throughout their lives. They sewed many useful items including jackets, dresses, coats, and vests. I.

Under the direction of Mr. Leon- ard Ostwalt, the band and choir presented sev- eral fine concerts and performed at every home game that the Beavers played. They did a su- perb job of supporting the Beavers at the Divi- sional and State tournaments. They performed at the graduation ceremonies.
