The eleven journalism students alternated as editors each week. Journalism students also published a. daily bulletin of school incidents which kept the school informed on daily happenings. This bulletin went by the name Daily News Sheet and was posted in the English room. Ronald Knox deserves special mention because of the help he gave the journalists.

Seniors As Youngsters MAX MILLY JERRY DUANE BILL VERNON BUD DORT Grade School Cheerleaders I Basketball Football 1950 Grid Season Bonnesteel's six man football team got off on the wrong foot in the season's opener against Lake Andes when they bowed to a much stronger team 49-7. This game was played at Lake Andes on September 15th with the Eagles acting as hosts to the Tigers. Several players got their first taste of real action in this contest after only five lettermen from the previous year answered Coach Art Glynn's call for practice. Fifteen players reported for practice and were as follows: Duane Dunkak, Bill Wernke, Don Applebee, Bob Hausmann, Ronnie Knox, Bill Bruce, Eldon Halverson, LeRoy Hoar, Gerald Pepper, Don Schmitz, Ted Schmitz, Bob Metal, Willis Goodman, Jim Schmitz, and Tom Bailey. The first eleven players named above were selected as this year's letter winners with only Dunkak and Wernke graduating out of the eleven. Fairfax gave Bonesteel their first win Z5-8 in a game played at Bonesteel in which Duane Dunkak showed his offensive ability by scoring three touchdowns. The third game of the season was played with the Spencer Pirates at Bonesteel and the Tigers were defeated 31-8 by the flashy aerial attack unleashed by the opponents. Fairfax again fell to the Orange and Black 36-12 when they played host to the Tigers on October 6th. Donald Applebee, a Sophomore half-back, showed very good running power in this game as he skirted across for three T.D.'s. Bonesteel played the only afternoon game of the season at Marty Mission on Saturday, October 14th. Marty's Braves took advantage of all the breaks in this very closely played game in which they returned two intercepted passes for T.D's. to beat the home team 19 to 6. Butte's flashy gridders broke the jinx that Bonesteel had appar'ently held over them the past several seasons as they defeated the Tigers 20-7 in a hard fought game at Bonesteel. In the three previous years Bonesteel's Tigers had defeated Butte three times and tied the score at 6 to 6 three times to shut them from victory in any game. The last game of the season for the squad was played on the home field against Dallas in which the Tigers bowed to the tune of 54 to 7. This game was highlighted by a last minute touchdown by Gerald Pepper upon his interception of an enemy lateral. This game also marked the last one in high school play for Duane Dunkak and Bill Wernke, the graduating co-captains. Dunkak 'placed the Tigers in the scoring department with 8 touchdowns and two T.D. passes completed. Gerald Pepper and LeRoy Hoar looked good the entire season on the defensive end of play and have good prospects for the coming years. This year's record of two wins and five losses was not good as compared with ' previous seasons, but it is sincerely believed that a foundation has been built for a good team in the coming years.

Fairfax's Broncs became champions with a victory over the Butte five in the final match. In the preliminaries Butte downed Spencer and Bonesteel lost to Fairfax. This was the only game of the season in which Bonesteel bowed to the Broncs out of five contests. Runners-up honors were taken by Spencer as the Pirates placed a win over the Tigers in a low scored game. ROSEB UD CONFERENCE Winner's Warriors walked off with the championship trophy in the Conference Tournament played at Gregory on the 25th and 26th of January. Their championship victory was accomplished over Bonesteel by a score of 62 to 53. Bonesteel won their berth in the championship game by taking a first round win over Gregory 58-38 and by defeating Fairfax in the semi-finals 57 to 44. The Warriors, en route to the finals, placed a win over the Dallas Coyotes and then tangled in a close one with Burke who had won over Colome in the first round. The Winner Burke game ended in a near tie 47 to 45. Burke's Bulldogs took the third place honors by defeating Fairfax in the consolation game. Bonesteel turned in a very good showing in the tourney by scoring a total of 168 points for a strong average of 56 tallies per game. SE COND TEAM TOURNAMENT Fairfax came through victorious in the 'B' Tourney held at Bonesteel by placing a win over Gregory in the finals 47-42. The Champions moved up to the finals the hard way by defeating Bonesteel in the first round 36-45 and by winning over Burke in the semi-finals. Gregory had a fairly easy time of it going through Dallas in the first round and Colome in the semi-finals by fairly large margins. Burke took the third place honors by defeating Colome in the consolation game. They had previously downed Winner in a thriller and then lost to Fairfax in the semi-finals DISTRICT 2.7 TOURNEY Bonesteel's Tigers were edged out in the finals of the tourney by the Gregory quint in an overtime thriller which ended 45-43 at the final buzzer. In first round action Gregory posted a 42-38 win over the Dallas Coyotes and Bonesteel emerged victorious from their game with Fairfax by a 53-41 score. Semi-final play-offs saw Burke, who drew a first round bye, bow to Gregory and Colome, also the receivers of a first round bye, downed by Bonesteel by a 42-28 score. Fairfax and Dallas battled it out for Consolation Honors in which Fairfax managed to squeeze past the Coyotes 47-46. 1950 Track Review When track was first announced in the spring of 1950, twenty-three boys answered the call, namely: Donald Applebee, Tom Bailey, Duane Dunkak, Harley Frasch, Willis Goodman, Eldon Halverson, Bob Hausmann, LeRoy Hoar, Bud Ions, LeRoy Ions, Marvin Ions, and Byron Pepper, Gerald Pepper, Vernon Pepper, Norman Perlenfein, Don Schmitz, Ted Schmitz, Ervin Schroeder, Verlin Sieh, Don Sondgeroth, Iohn Stroh, Gary Woods, and Iim Woods.

Pep Squad Cheerleaders GirIs'Pep Club Plays Important Part Early in the fall the girls met and organized their Pep group. Officers elected were Marvilla Jons-President, Janet Qualm-Vice-President, Connie Reynolds-Secretary, and Jean Taylor-Treasurer. Sponsor is Miss Gladys Sutton. Meetings were held regularly every week during basketball and football seasons. During the early meetings in the fall. the girls decided to buy orange blouses to wear at the games. Thirty-seven girls in high school and sixteen in the grades bought and made the orange satin blouses. This provided a colorful background for the Pep Squad. Later one hundred and eighty-six pins, with students' names and school colors were added. In order to improve the cheering section's volume, thirty-five megaphones were bought and painted orange with a black B to make the yells louder and lower. A skit was presented at every pep rally by different groups of girls. This made the pep meetings more interesting and gave everyone a good laugh. One high school party was given in honor of the football players on December 5th in the gymnasium. The girls Pep Club served as hostesses. Money was taken from the activity fund to buy new uniforms for the cheerleaders. The outfits were designed by the cheerleaders and made by Mrs. Dale Pepper and Mrs. Unglaub. The Bonesteel cheering section had one of the best located positions at both the Conference and District Tournaments. Their group was recognized as one of the best cheering sections at the tournaments. In fact from the comments of spectators, many persons considered Bonesteel's cheering squad the best.

On that date 180 persons ate in the lunchroom. Four years ago, January 13, 1947, on the opening day 113 persons ate the first lunch served in the hot lunchroom. The lunchroom operates with Mrs. Dunkak planning and preparing the meals with the help of Mrs. Knox and six student helpers. Dorothy Hoar, a seventh student helper, checks the- tickets. Student helpers receive their meals. lrnprovements in the way of equipment added in the four years include all kinds of utensils, tables, and cabinents. There are also two new electric stoves, a refrigerator and an electric dishwasher. The lunchroom has also been moved from a west room on the first floor to an east room in the basement of the schoolhouse. All of these im- provements and the cost of moving have been paid from the hot lunch program which is entirely self-supporting. Large quantities of food are comsumed during the school year when so many hungry boys and girls eat in the lunchroom. They eat about ZOO loaves of bread a month in addition to hot breads prepared by the cooks. Approximately a bushel of potatoes is used every day. Large quantities of sugar are used because the jams and jellies that are always on the tables are prepared by the ladies in the lunchroom. Seven gallons of milk is used daily and about ten pounds of salt is used each month. Large varieties of food are served because so much of the cooking is done in the lunchroom by the ladies who prepare the meals. Persons from town who eat there as occasional guests are surprised at the amount of food that is served each child for twelve cents. State aid for each student served, amounts to eight cents per meal. The average number served each day is about 182. The largest number served on one day was 194 served on December 7, 1950. Charlie Kimes Serves Twenty Years as Custodians This year marks the twentieth year for Charlie Kimes as school janitor. In the picture opposite he is shown with his assistant, Laurel Jump, who is employed as a full-time helper. Charlie as he is known to every school child and to every graduate of ,Bonesteel during the last twenty years is more than a worker to those who know him. He is a good and true friend. Last fall the PTA commemorated the twenty years of service of Charlie and Minnie Kimes with a special program reviewing their years of service and by presenting them with a gift. 17414 E09 'zaflfla K wg? . 3'-Fw 9 'f' ff, 'nf um.,..,n.4Al...4s, 'lLl'Ull'll'l'lZl nm..uu.lu.u.l.A.
