During this time yearbooks above the ordinary have been produced. THIS HAS BEEN no easy task. Much careful planning and creative ability have been woven into the yearbooks of the past. The superior staffs have been chosen, and they, under the able leadership of their editors and spon- sor, have maintained and even raised the standards of your yearbook. They have blazed a trail for the building of the yearbooks which have contained the treasured memories for all students entering the halls of B.H.S. IN RECOGNITION of the achievement of the editors and their sponsor through these years we proudly dedi- cate this book—the 1959 Bronco—to them. 7 Main Entrance Blackfoot Senior High School Herein the only royal road to fame and fortune lies.” Foreword To the students of B.H.S.: YOU HAVE COME a long way during the past year. HERE IS A RECORD of your journey: the highlights, your friends, your activities, the new experiences you have encountered along the way. THE GUIDEPOSTS were previously es- tablished for you. Your future will depend upon the observations you have made. HERE—in your 1959 Yearbook—are con- tained the innumerable memories of your journey. We know you will treasure them. THE PARTING OF THE WAYS Before thy feet the ways divide: One path leads to heights sublime; Downward the other slopes, where bide The refuse and the wrecks of Time. Choose then, nor falter at the start; O, choose the nobler path and part!

This is our first year at B.H.S.! How exciting! New classes—new teachers—new experiences. For some of us, it was hard to leave Old Junior High. We left many memories and some of our favorite teachers behind us. Each day—each week, is proving to be a wonderful experience. Naturally being called the Little Freshman, and Scum of the Earth has been hard to take. However, all in all we are proud to be in B.H.S. and be a part of this fine school.

We took advantage of our new position as Sopho- mores, and turned out with the best in everything we tried. We always had loads of kids turn out for everything we did. Whether it was fun or work, we were there, willing to do our part. Even when our C. C. Points dropped, our spirit never did. WE WERE THE ONES who supported, and won, all those green and white days! WE WERE THE ONES who showed up for all the sports events—and yelled! WE WERE THE ONES who were tops in almost everything. We will always remember the wonderful times we had! Well be proud to say we were a part of that great bunch of kids. Mighty Sophomores of ’59 The evidence that the girls and the boys ( ?) worked hard making our float.

Juniors Junior Class Officers and Sponsor Jim Kirkham President Marilyn Cooper Secretary Lucille Yancey Vice-President Mrs. Kotter Sponsor Looking Back . . . The junior year was one of transition—one of change. For the first time school be- came meaningful; for the first time we set goals for ourselves; and for the first time the future became a challenge. Our third high school year was filled with pleasure—the elation of a victory after a football game; the feeling of patriotism as we cheered our basketball team on to victory; the thrill of a big formal dance; and the warm feeling of satisfaction we derived from gaining knowledge in our everyday classes. Our Slave Project was most effective for we earned over one hundred dollars. This money made possible our many activities which transpired later in the year. However, THE biggest and THE bestest” thing the juniors did was the Junior Prom. Cinderella's Ball was literally a ball”� and a beautiful dance to remember. All these were part of the year—the best year of our youth—and perhaps the best of our lives. 45 Marilee Allen Clarke Anderson Alan Archibald Margo Bailey Sherry Benson Tom Bird Jerry Bischoff Walt Bithell Keith Borrowman Vicki Bowman Larry Branson Dick Brower Betty Brown Joy Brown Bonnie Butler ]UfltOYS Patsy Butt RaNae Buttars Pete Cannon Toni Case Carole Christenson William Clark Marilyn Cooper Don Lee Cottrell Benton Cox Barry Craven Elvera Cucchiara Lance Cushman James Davis Raejean Dawson Doug Dillard Jimmy Dittmer Jay Dixon Marsha Douglass Clinton Drollinger Konnie Elison Marie Ellsworth Terry Rae Erickson Bonnie Faulds Linda Fife Joyce Fleming Joann Flint David Fowler Roger Fowler Jeanne Freeman Leornal Gardner ] utitor s Nancy Gardner Bruce Giest Carole Goodwin Eddie Gorder Noel Gordon Jerry Gough Diana Grant Bruce Green Diana Grimmett Judy Hallas Aaron Hamilton Milton Hammond Judy Hansen Elaine .Harris Linda Harris Terry Hatch Brent Hawkes Elise Hawkes Edna Hebdon Jack Hiatt Linda Hill ReNida Hill Lyndy Hoover Dorothy Hopkins Edgar Howard Grant Hultz Barbara Hultz Jimmy Kirkham Sally Knight John Kotrason Karen Kottcr Sharon Leavitt Kathleen Leonardson Marley Jackman Vick Jackman Laurel Jensen Vern Jensen Carl Johnson Ann Johnston Tanya Jones Kay Kennedy Kathy Kesler Cinderella’s Ball Carl, date; Jean, Doug; Judy, Brent, doing the light fan- tastic just before the witching hour of twelve.

Except for wisdom, friendship is the best gift bestowed upon man.” These words may seem a bit silly to some, but in explaining the way a senior feels as he recalls four years of school, just completed, they explain the many obstacles and joys each of us has experienced together. Our first year in school was exciting. We were initiated into new areas of learn- ing: Latin, ethics, algebra, world history; our teachers were new; the school routine was different—and even though we were the scum of the earth,” we, each in our own way, decided that BHS was the greatest place on earth. Some would say a serving of seconds” is not as good as firsts,” but we as a class did not find it so. As Sophomores, we shall never forget the hops, the Jubilee, bas- ketball season, and the hundred and one things a growing and industrious class, such as ours, became involved in. Lost in the accelerated speed and excitement of our third year, as Juniors, we gave the class of ’58 a lot of competition in all the activities of BHS. This type of en- thusiasm made people take note of the things they could expect from the class of ’59. Four long and bewildering years have passed giving to those who completed the trek, a series of experiences never to be forgotten. Pleasant memories: the Senior play (You Can’t Take It With You), assemblies, campus day, the Sneak,” the Senior Ball, and graduation, have thus ended an important chapter in our lives. This chapter of life is closed, but new horizons are open to a proud and confident class. There are many handicaps waiting us—but we’ve been well trained and carefully handled. We know, whatever we do, we shall always be united by the friendships formed through four wonderful years together. In fact, we may never meet again; but one thing is for sure—we can never forget our class because this group, members of the class of '59, has held high the torch of working together, advancing together—and building lasting friendships.

They are: Diane Davis, Josephine Grinnell, Cathy Park, and Patricia Anderson. ■ ) Tt • ''J A new organization was formed this year in B.H.S. which is strictly for girls. The basic plan is to cultivate in girls an appreciation of their opportunities as leaders now and later in life. Choosing vocations is stressed and the girls have had the opportunity of listening to speakers who have pressed the advantage of choosing a career early in life and following the choice as they progress with their education. All the girls in B.H.S. are members and they have many interesting meetings. One social activity which was a highlight of the year was their first all-school dance. This was held in April. Mrs. Bonnie Gardner has served as the Girls' Federa- tion” sponsor. Officers are: M. Anderson, President; B. Lyons, Historian; S. Bergeson, Reporter; A. Hayball, Vice-President; A. Madsen, Secretary-Treasurer; K. Lindquist, Historian. Committees planning the Girls' Federation Dance are: C. Lenardson, A. Madsen, S. Rodgers, S. Bergeson, A. Pratt, P. Weaver, A. Hayball. Carol Nelson sings Venus during intermission of the dance. 118 611 co Sco11 cb C .o bo CO Cc- CO 1 coNc £ et SpeOce Ae� ' Football Jim Trout SPORTS EDITOR FIRST ROW: R. Winterbottom, E. Howard, P.
