Class History In September, 1918, about 26 scrubby little Freshmen went through the usual agonies of initiation at the hands of the (pardon the word) Sophomores. This ordeal over, we proceeded to elect our officers. Ray Keller captained our ranks} Shirley Anderson was vice-president} and Helen Heikens •■■ms secretary-treasurer. Jeffery Wilhelm and Gloria Knight represented us in Student Council. A. J. Barney was our sponsor. That year we held a roller-skating party at Lake Blaine. Later on we held a return party for the Sophomores. Upon returning to Bigfork as Sophomores, our first duty was to elect officers. Bobb Zachary was president} Ewing Micken, vice-president} Joan Hersh, secretary-treasurer} LeRoy Cranston and Ray Keller, Student Council representatives. Our advisor for that year was Mrs. Bays. There were 2k students in our Sophomore class. The class opened their third year by electing LeRoy Cranston, president} Ewing Micken, vice-president} Louise Bartlett, secretary-treasurer} Dolores Sumner and Bill Kirby, Student Council representatives. In March of that year we gave the Seniors a banquet which was held at the Flathead Lake Lodges. Then came the Junior Play, The Miser , which was a big success. J. J. Sivils was our advisor. There were 16 students in the class, two of which graduated with the Seniors. At last came our Senior year. We started this, our last year, with only eight members. J. J. Sivils was our advisor. We took an active part in the Carnival in which all the organizations and classes par- ticipated. During the Christmas Season we enjoyed caroling with the other students. Along towards spring we held a Senior Ball which everyone enjoyed. During the same month the Juniors held a banquet in honor of the Seniors. (The Juniors weren't so bad after all.) Then came our Senior Week. Although we had fun, it was filled with sadness as we were together for the last time. We all enjoyed a trip to Missoula that week. May 18 found the Seniors happy but sad as this was Baccalaureate. May 19 was a great day for the Seniors. We were nervous while being handed our diplomas. Now we put the past behind us ard we cl ini) far.
