As Juniors they chose David Davis as President; Garnett Robertson, Vice-President; Jean Marshall, Secretary; Bernita Talbot Girl Representative; and Keith Christeson, Boy Representative. The outstanding activities of the class this year so far include a Christmas dance, the sale of Victory pins and pop, also noon dancing on Tuesday and Thursdays. The class play was One Wild Night presented on December 4, 1943 under the direction of Mrs. Virginia Ebert. Preceding this year the class has progressed in regular school activities and has come up from last on Activities when Freshmen to higher levels their other years. When Freshmen Dwight Dale, Billie Knight, LaVerna Tillman and Keith Christeson led the class in high offices. When Sophomores, John Anderson, Leo Lockhart, Mart Beth Phillips, LaVerna Tillman and Robert Hutson were elected for respective places in office. 15 Cnee again on the 3rd day of September 1943, sixty two of last year's seventy seven Freshmen enrolled in 3.C.H.S. under a new name—Sophomore. Before we relate this years history let us look back and see what important memories are left from their Freshmen year. The class met for the first time in the fall of 41 when they elected their officers for the coming year. Don Peper was chosen President,Bob Jenkins his Vice-president arilLily Yam ad a Secretary assisted by Joe Ashcraft treasurer. Boy and girl Representatives were Fred Crabtree and Kells Bledsoe. In activities, when Freshmen, they chose Patty Brown for their football attendant to the Queen. On Santa Fe Trail Day, Earlene Brunton was chosen for the class Queen and the whole class was well represented. The Freshmen class last year as a whole was very successful under the excellent leadership of Miss Claar and C. Brown sponsors. At the first of the year they elected their officers as following: Nella Bledsoe--------------------President Don Baublits----------------Vice-President Joe Ashcraft---------------------Secretary Dorothy Pelley-------------------Treasurer Beverly 3ackman-----------------------Girl Representative Bon Peper------------------------------Boy Representative The sponsors for this progressive class are Mr. Buettgen-bach and Mrs. Yocum. 17 On September the third, nineteen forty two, eighty-seven thoroughly bewildered froshies started the real beginning of their high school career in Bent County High School. When officers were elected the following received offices— Jim Peterson-------------------President Don 3ear------------------Vice-President Evan Fitzsimmon----------------Secretary Elmer Failing------------------Treasurer Marjorie Gilliland----Girl Representative Norman Gradoville-----Boy Representative Miss Lillian Claar and Mr. II. M. Thurston were freshmen sponsors. This enterprising group finishes a very successful year even though rating fourth in school activities. Scholastic endeaver rated high and so did social activities. A very successful dance was given on January third. Thus ended the freshmen year for the class of forty-six. 18 ’ This year much suspense and mystery was connected with the cheerleaders. They were voted upon in assembly but their names were not disclosed till the following week when a pep assembly was held. At tnis assembly the students found they had elected peppy little Kathryn Houk, snappy and sparkling Judy Phillips and the clown and al-round good fellow of 3. C. H. S. Claude Tucker. During the year the cheer leaders filled their jobs very well. Their cheery smiles and dispositions have been and inspiration to the cheering section and the team. The girls are very able actrobats while Claude attempts to follow their antics. The cheer leaders have had a very successful year and B. C. H. S. has beer, proud of them. 19 SEASON'S Las Animas— 0 Las Animas— ■ 7 Las Animas— 0 Las Animas— —34 Las Animas— 7 Las Animas— —21 Las Animas— —40 Las Animas— —39 Las Animas— —33 ♦ Las Animas— —13 Kon -league games.

They began by learning the fundamentals of Journalism from a book then active practice was made by publishing the Trojan Spirit . At first there were times when, to our sponsor, it seemed almost hopeless that any of the students would become Journalists but as the year drew on and the end was in sight the future seemed brighter. The main purpose of the Journalism class during the year was to enlighten the student body of the activities of B.C.H.S. through the Trojan Spirit . 29 Get our Gifts For Grady a tioh At The city Phar I)r 3bsi i( .ss For Your Health. ffa)PK BT33S Phone v?
