POEM In the fall of 1950 The doors were open wide; And thirty bashful freshmen Coyly stepped inside. They peered around the corner, And what should meet their stare. But all the mighty seniors With paddles, waiting there. With initiation over And the greenness fading fast. An appropriate return party Proved to be the first big task. In 1951 you heard The slamming of the doors, And we progressed quite rapidly As magnanimous sophomores. Emily Post had helped us With her book of etiquette, And we put on, for the athletes. An exquisite banquet. Drums of Death, in our junior year Was the big hit of the day. This exciting mystery, full of fear. Was our memorable Junior Play. Winding up our junior year It then became our scheme To keep our prom name secret— Deep Purple was our theme. Now we, the mighty seniors. Wish to express appreciation To our parents and our teachers. For the Key to Education. --Nora Darlington Ida Snow This page sponsored by C L - - Big Sandy

CLASS PROPHECY CON’T. Remember the Bahnmiller sisters? They also have done a wonderful job. Esther is the new Secretary to the United Nations, and she has really been busy. Meanwhile Anna has done a wonderful job of teaching and has just been nominated Teacher of the Year. Roberta Swanson is also a teacher. She has been appointed Dean of Home Economics in the college at Bozeman. As the rocket slowly starts to land on the moon and the two former class- mates start to fasten their safety belts, they cease looking at the past and the wonderful times they had in Big Sandy High School and look into an exciting future.
