Not Pictured: Carol Boyd and VVilliam Waldschmidt On May 10, 1939 the Bismarck Chapter of the National Honor Society was es- tablished. The Class of l44 has the honor of presenting the fourth group of mem- bers to this society. The Bismarck charter accepts as members all those placed in the upper 1276 bracket of the class, all averages this year being above 907-. The valedictorian and salutatorian must have attended all four years in Bismarck High School. Although Emma Kinzer, this year, held the highest average, she could not qualify as Vale- dictorian because of this reason. Upon receiving this distinction, these honor students are presented with scrolls as rewards for their ability and efficiency by the National Honor Society which has been established in well over 2,000 schools and Whose membership exceeds 27,000. New members from the Class of i44 are: Emma Klnzer ................,.,............ .... Betty Bird, Valedictorian ................ Shirley Anderson, Salutatorian ........

' M! 1 QDICK AIDE-Known for his curly red hair and athletic ability on football field and basketball court. His love affairs were many, but have settled on a Certain junior. He recently gave his time to the Army Air Corps. OMARGARET ALBRECHT-Entering the portals of B.H.S. from Temvik in her senior year, Margaret didn't give us much time to know her well, but what we did know we liked a lot. QEDGAR ANDERSON-Here We have one half of the Edgar-Edsel twin set that whizzed through high school in three years. Pretty darn good going! QEDSEL ANDERSON-The other half of the twin set of Edsel-Edgar. As far as we know they have never shown any great interest in any feminine wiles, but they say while there's life there's hope. OHAROLD ANDERSON-Now don't let that innocent face fool you! Andy was one of the smooth- est of the many pranksters we have encountered while in high school. OLOWYN ANDERSON - She entered dear old B.H.'S. from Minot as a sophomore, giving us plenty of time to know what a swell person she is. She was an important part of mixed chorus. OSHIRLEY ANDERSON-Shirley, edi- tor of the Hi-Herald in her senior year, was an energetic member of Booster Board, prom decoration chair- man, as well as one of the ten representative juniors chosen by the class, and salutatorian. QVVAR- REN ASPLUND- Otto was with us for three and a half years. He graduated a half a year before the rest of us, leaving mid-year in his senior year. No girls on his list either! . OGLEN BARTH-Having been active as sophomore class president and in Booster Board, Glen felt his talents would be better suited to Uncle Sam. He left the girls behind him in the middle of his senior year. QMARY JEAN BAVENDICK-With her heart firmly entrenched at Notre Dame, we can see why she majored in home economics. Mixed chorus and a capella were included with making her own clothes as her other interests. OROGER BERGeAnother three year termer, Rog was an active member of the band and a member of the National Honor Society. His acting in Ever Since Eve drew much attention from the critics. OKENNETH BERGO-Tall and red-headed, Kenny has been an active member of mixed chorus, Hi-Herald, and annual staff. Although his interest is a certain senior gal, the underclasswomen are working on it. 0 BETTY BIRD-M-m-m-m. Not only is she as sweet and charming as she looks, but she was outstand- ing as our valedictorian, too. She was a member of the annual staff and does double duty as a soda jerk. OWAYNE BLOOMQUIST - Most any wintry morning Wayne made his appearance in back of school by ripping in with a carload of students, Good work! He even made it with a half an engine at times. OELIZABETH BOISE- Liz was outstanding as worthy advisor of Rainbow as well as holding down positions on annual and Hi-Herald staffs, a cheerleader, and member of Booster Board. She was one of the representative juniors. QAPOLLO BOUGAS-Apollo was the capable make-up edi- tor of the Hi-Herald and a great help with his knowledge of l8 metro, etc, He was also a member of the Air Scouts and Booster Board. QARTEMIS BOUGAS-The other half of the Bougas twins, Artemis is the beauty of the pair. She loves music, being in orchestra several years and reading seems her hobby. She's also a member of the National Honor Society. QROBERT BOUTROUSA Booty was with the band all through high school, tooting a smooth clarinet and holding the office of vice-president of band during his senior year. He also held several offices in DeMolay. OCAROL BOYD-Carol was an active member of the staff for the junior edition of the Hi-Herald. She was also a member of the National Honor Society. QDALE BROSTROM-Elongated Dale came to Bismarck from VVashburn in his junior year and has since been an important asset to the basketball team, playing on the first-string in his senior year. 0 RUSSELL BYERLY-Although Bill entered here in his senior year, he lost no time in acquainting him- self with the female sex. His wolfing tactics, quick wit, and smooth dancing were the envy of many. ODUANE CARLSON-Playing first trombone, Duane was an important cog in the wheels of the band during his four years. As for women, he can take them or leave 'em alone. ODONNA CARUTH- A transfer student from Grand Forks at the beginning of her sophomore year, Donna was Well known and loved for her amiable disposition, Grand Forks' loss was Bismarck's gain! QROBERT CHERNICH-A person of various hobbies, KGCU was tobviouslyj interested in radio, and photog- raphy. A member of DeMo1ay, band and Gloria Cast, we probably ought to put women first on his list.

QISABEL CORELL.-In Isabel we find a potential secretary in the otfing. She was one of the students who majored in the commercial subjects and we bet she will be a swell steno. They call her Izzy. OLESTER COLLIS-As a photographer for the Herald, Lex could have gone in heavily for blackmail, but didn't. He was a member of DeMolay, and Air Scouts, before leaving for the army. Sophomores seemed his preference. QBRUCE CUSACK-With his interest lying chiefly in women, Guts went off the track to end up as second all-state in football and did a bang-up good job as sports writer for the Herald. ODELORES DELZER- Tiny was known for her tiny and toothsome size as well as a really luscious blues voice. She went out for mixed chorus and a capella. Her ambition is to be a designer-of dresses, she says. OANNETTE DIVEN-One gal who had as many love affairs as she has fingers, Annette was adept at the art of flirting. She was snapshot chairman of the annual and a member of the choruscs and orchestra. OMARIFLO DRIVER-Mariflo was one of the society editors of the Hi-Herald and a. member of the chorus. We hope in future years someone can keep track of her romances better than we could. OJACK DUTTON-Jake was kept quite busy following the line of a senior girl. In between he was a member of DeMolay, Air Scouts, and was fwe hearl a charter member of the order of the Vulgaf- ians. QBEVERLY EBELING-Here is one who had varied interests, singing in glee clubs, earning a letter in basketball, and interested in all out door sports. She was active in 4-H work and entered from Menoken. OELMER ELLXVElNeOne of the quiet type, Elmer was a bashful young man with very brown eyes. He entered Bismarck High School from Zap at the beginning of his senior year. QHANNAH ENGDAHL-With her warm red hair, gay smile, and warm, friendly personality, Hannah's circle of pals was constantly widening and its no wonder that she took up writing letters as a pass time. ODONALD ERICKSON- Donny was a new addition to our championship football team this year, usually playing an excellent left guard and receiving honorable mention on the all-state team. He has also held several offices in DeMolay. OBARTON FAHLGREN - Though he was the answer to any maiden's prayer, he seemed disdainful of the senior girls and turned his attention toward the underclasswomen. He was a four year member of the band, playing trombone. OSHIRLEY FAIR- MAN-Aiding in the war effort, Shirley held a job during school and expects to obtain a position in Minneapolis after graduation. Aviation was her chief interest and reading was her hobby. QVIV- IAN FARNAM-If Vivian has her way, she will be a nurse and she plans to join the Cadet Nurse's Corp. Just wait in turn with those illnesses. She worked during school. OJULIA FEIST - Julia, a gal from our illustrious tand shall-we-say notorious graduating class- no, Let's notl, is known for her diminutive size. She too, took all the commercial subjects.

OBETTY FRITZ-Betty was a member of the a capella for one year during high school. She has an odd hobby of collecting nick-nacks-such as UD. We must look into this. ODONNA FROST - Still another one to finish in three years, Donna was an active member of the uniformed band for two years and of the orchestra for one year. She was also a member of Rainbow. QNICK FROST - Ted or Nick whichever you knew him by, was active in the band all during high school. He, too, was one of the laboring class during school, he says. ODXVAIN FUNSTON-Give him a flood in Mandan and Dwain is out in front working with the rest of them. His picture here is due to conbined efforts of many. Camera shy?

AMERICAN HISTORY A back view of Mr. Nelson's civic class reveals individual deliberatioi on the subject of American govern ment. One semester of civics is re- quired of every senior. SOCIOLOGY Aimed at giving students a cleare understanding of America's past ani present, the History course instills ii the minds of students the essentia working foundations and problems oz a democracy. Page Forty-three PHYSXCS The Biology course offers a Work- ing knowledge of plant and animal life. Supplementing the recitation periods are laboratory periods where dissection, observation and use of the microscope give the student a better understanding of living organ- lsims. Pug: Forly-four AERONAUTICS More students than ever before are this year enrolled in the physics classes. Pictured is a group of stu- performing an experiment with slide wire bridge. BIOLOGY Probably one of the most popular classes is aeronautics, due to the world condition. It will be a great help to many of the boys who are entering the Air Forces. Bismarck High School produces one of the best English foundations that can be had. Oral English, un- der Mr. Burns, added amusement as well as work to the upperclassmen. BOOKKEEPING Under the watchful eye of Mrs Edick, typing II students register con- centration plus. They are transcrib- ing from their shorthand notes, pre- paring for their future as efficient stenographers. ENGLJSH Q-q The difference between a debit and a credit, along with all the other fundamentals of bookeeping are taught in this class. Students are above all trained to be accurate for business and personal satisfaction. Page Forly-Iivc GIRLS' GYM F Above: Development of Posture. Left: Combative Exercises. GIRLS PHYSICAL EDUCATION The girls physical education program under the supervision of Miss Bernardine Barrett has carried on many new activities along the line of combative exercises and calisthenics. Physical fitness tests to determine the physical performance level are given in the girls gym classes twice a year. This includes sit-ups, push-ups, pull-ups, potato races, standing broad jumps, 10-second squat thrust, and the 30-second squat thrust. This fitness program was put on to condition girls to doing work which will aid in the War effort. ly' BOYS GYM Above: Relay Races. Right: Leap Frog. BOYS PHYSICAL EDUCATION Under the direction of Mr. Charles T. Denton, the boys physical education classes instituted a more vigorous physical fitness program aimed to better prepare the boys for the armed services. An integral part of this program which was carried out five days a Week, were the ealisthenies as well as those sports which were to develop the skill of self defense. Among these were boxing, wrestling, and the relay races. Pg Fry LIBRARY F Under the able supervision of Mrs. Waldo, the library this year became an efficient Sanctum of silence and study.

Behind the scenes in B.H.S. is the Booster Board, whose duty, as their Consti- tution states, is to foster school spirit. This fostering of school spirit has this year included everything from buying a crown for the Homecoming Queen to buying two Trainer Planes for Uncle Sam. Besides back ing the Third and Fourth War Loan Drives, the Board has spon- sored the Minuteman Drive. The Minuteman Flag has flown over B.H.S. each month since the effort started, signifying that over 9021- of the students have purchased bonds or stamps during the month. As usual, all plans for the Homecoming celebration were made and carried out by the Boardg also screwball pep-meetingsg assembliesg open forums on vital subjects. The 1943-44 officers were John Larson, president, Carolyn Rhoades, vice presi- dent: and Elizabeth Boise, secretary-treasurer. Mrs. Agnes Bantz again served as faculty advisor for the group.

DENTON In his first year as football coach at Bismarck High, Coach Denton whipped into shape a championship team from a comparatively inexperi- enced group of football hopefuls. Much credit for the gold footballs that now dangle from the key chains of Denton's Demons must go to their new coach. Their season's record was enviable. To all appearances it was to be an unbeaten, untied and unscored on Demon team. They were caught off guard, however, at the end of the season when the St. Mary's team scored a touchdown against them. It was a disappointed team which learned that the championship game, to be played with Fargo, at Fargo on November 14, had been called off because of inclement weather. Therefore, Fargo and Bismarck were named co-champions. QW Ass1sTANT 5 CoAcHEs . GEORGE LOSEN A. H.

Although the team was definitely of tournament caliber, their tournament berth was lost through complica- tions caused by a combination of the draft board, injuries, and illness.
