PIONEER CLUB 1946-47 President..............................Tom Sanford Vice-president.................... • ■ • Lindy Ray Secretary-Treasurer....................Harold Lund One of the newer organizations of the school and one of the busiest is the Pioneer Club. The club is composed of lettermen who have earned letters in basketball and football It is under the direction of Mr. Schwartz. For the pest two years,the club has conducted an intra- mural basketball league. This league offers experience to talented boys who were not able to make the team. The Pioneer Club held an interclass track meet last spring and hopes to hold another this year. This might seem like a lot of work and no play but the lettermen have their fun too. Members of the club were guests at the Athletic Banquet given in their honor by the sophomore class and were also guests of honor at a banquet in Havre given by the Elks Club. They made two trips to Great Falls to see some of the sport features of the year. On the first trip the Pioneers saw Montana State vs. Portland U. in a football game. At the close of the basketball season,they journeyed to Great Falls for the State Class A Basketball Tournament.
