SCHOOL UTAH BOOMERANG 1963 Lithographed by COMMUNITY PRESS Orem. Utah INTRODUCTION As the sun slowly ascends from the east after having pushed the last mists of darkness from her grasp, school buses start opening their doors to release their harbored passengers. Excite- ment lingers in the air. Sophomores are frightened, not much, but a little bit. They look at the beautiful new school and think, Gee, if we only had grass now. Then quickly their thoughts turn to what they are going to do. What if they can't find their classes? Where is the music de- partment, and where's room 231? On the contrary, the seniors are bold and confident. After all, they've been through this experience before. And with the juniors, the seniors and sophomores enter the school building and another glorious year is begun. The faculty started school weeks before the students did and had things ready for us. Thay were the backbone to all student activities. V We, the Boomerang staff, with our able advisor, Mr. John Wayman have compiled and re- corded the events and activities which have made your year memorable. There have beeh many changes made this year and many of them are in the Boomerang—we hopeVou approve % 2 3 BRIGHAM CITY - • % • •• % - i Rockettes B'Ettes PEACH DAYS An estimated 40,000 persons lined the parade route dur- ing Peach Days as the Box Elder Chamber of Commerce staged the longest parade and biggest celebration in the history of Brigham City. Box Elder High contributed two marching groups, the B'Ettes and Rockettes, the marching band, three class floats, and car entries from each club and organization. Band” 6 The Class of LXIII's float, Roma Antiqua ' captured third place in the Peach Days float contest. The float was portrayed in brilliant shades of chartreuse and silver. Plans for the float were designed by Phil Nelson with Carolyn Hansen helping as co-chairman. Work began in Barbara Bott's garage, but the fin- ished product, illustrating Roman gallantry with a chariot led by two brilliant horses made of paper-mache emerged from under the wings of Box Elder High. The work was supervised by the class parents, Mrs. Rosamond Sleigh and Jordan Larsen. We all worked together to produce another outstanding float for the Class of '63. A contrast to the abstract designing of the junior class float was Judi Oss, adding a touch of earthliness to an otherwise Out of this World, as the float was called, creation. Those who worked on it still refer to it as the horseshoe, boomerang, box, and flow- ers. It was done in shades of blue and pink. Originality and free-siyle expression were used in its planning. Kim Butze was chairman and Susan Valentine was co-chairman. After many headaches, thrills, and cokes, the float was finished and came from its hid- ing place behind the Capitol theater. Class parents. Miss Fern Gardner and Tom Davis, supervised the work. The juniors will never forget the time they spent working on their original creation. Behind the closed doors of the high school shop a magnificent creation was in the mak- ing. Piece by piece the materials were as- sembled. The sophomores watched proudly as their float took shape. Although they did- n't have any class parents as yet, Mr. Grant Moser supervised their construction. Later Mrs. Marion Hicks became class mother. As work continued on the float, shades of lavender and pink came into view. Class of- ficers, Louis Christensen, Diane Shelton, and Karen Bush acted as chairmen. At last the float blossomed forth under the title of Stairways to Success, portraying steps leading to a book of knowledge. 7 Our Foreign Exchange Student FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENTS Jose Francisco Arias Nunez, or just plain Francisco, was our foreign exchange student from Costa Rica. He came from a family of three brothers and two sisters. He lived with Mr. and Mrs. Francis Todd and his new brother and sister, Larry and Loreen Todd. In Costa Rica he went to an all boys' school. No homework was given and the only studying done outside of class was for major tests. Francisco has won a place in the hearts of every Box Elder student and faculty member. He was chosen as Mr. Hello during Hello Week The girls chose him as the boy most wanted to be found in their Christ- mas stockings on Christmas morning. Francisco's new family Our Exchange Student is welcomed to Box Elder 8 Homecoming Royalty ' Much practice went into the half-time performance HOMECOMING The day had finally come. The town was alive, with dashes of purple and white paint on every sidewalk and on clothing in many mothers' washings. Students' enthu- siasm rose during the pep rally and they let their emo- tions go as the senior boys battled the junior boys in a tug of war. The fire department furnished the water that soaked more seniors than juniors. As game time approached, the excitement hit a higher key. The B'lvers lit the bonfire and a bear, representing our rival. Bear River, was burned. Shouts of joy rose as the last of the bear turned to ashes. As the game began we noticed how big the Bears looked next to our Bees. We felt a sprinkle of rain. Gusts of wind blew papers across the field. Although a light fuse blew out and the half-time was ruined, the game was exciting, ending in a tie. The Homecoming Dance followed with the announce- ment of the king and queen. B'Ettes and Rockettes support the team Connie and Barbara in action 9 Our king and queen, Kenny Davis and Patty Marrone. HARVEST BALL Harvest Times Around the World was the theme for the '62-'63 Harvest Ball. The assembly represented countries all over the world. Music for the dance was furnished by the Col- legiate Quintet from Logan. CHRISTMAS DANCE The sophomore-sponsored Christmas dance was held after the final showing of the all-school variety show. The theme was Christmas Cheer. They danced to the music of the Cache Swingette band. 10 Sophomore royalty reigned over the Christmas Dance. Santa s helper (E.W.P.)' Sadie Hawkins' Day began with the don- ning of outlandish hillbilly costumes. The girls' choice dance turned out to be a real Hill-Bee-Billy dance. All boys wore vegetable corsages concocted by their lucky captors. The main event of the evening was the ex- change of certificates and wedding rings. A B.E. boy I'd like to meet.

Under the direction of Mrs. Fontell Messervy, Happy Holiday was presented. The audience was thrilled at the talent illustrated as each season passed to their view. All in all, the variety show was a joy to all who spent hours rehearsing, to those who came to see and hear it, and to all faculty members, who spent many hours in preparation.

The main feature of the cir- cus was the performance of the Polynesian fire dancers from BYU. They thrilled the spectators with their daring skills.

Bottoms up. 22 The golf geme drew many contestants. After an enjoyable program in the auditroium, oldsters and youngsters alike retired to the gym for the fun part of the circus. Among the booths were a musical cake walk, a balloon shave, and application of Newton's third law of motion.

For the Junior class, their year was now complete, their Junior Prom was also complete. The dec- orations were some of the most beautiful ever seen. The spirit of Rome was present every- where. The lilting strains of the Weber College band floated dreamily over the maize of danc- ers as they glided gracefully about the floor. The sight was awe-inspiring as the girls waltzed about in their elegant dresses. The dream of every Junior had come true. A very special dance.

SENIOR PLAY The senior play, All My Sons, was one of emotion and stark tragedy. It was devoid of the escape from realism that has plagued our time. Joe Keller, portrayed by John Nabors, was a successful businessman who developed a callous insensitivity to life. This didn't matter until a situation arose which made him realize that being just a little bit dishonest can destroy one and those around him. “ALL MY SONS” CAST Mr. Keller Chris Keller Kent Seely Dr. Bayliss George Deaver . . . . . . .

It is the true life story of one of France's greatest painters in an American setting with American characters. Mr. Bean lived, painted, and died at Dr. Haggett's place. He became famous after he died. The theme is: It is characteristic of humanity to ap- preciate our great painters after they die. Tear my picture will you?'

Dressed in purple they have thrilled B.E. fans with their peppy half-time performances. They cheered the team on to victory, but, win or lose, they were behind the team 100 per cent. The members have felt a feeling of unity tying them together. Their activities have all been fun, especially the scaven- ger hunt, which took them to all parts of the city, and the Christmas party, when Mrs. Messervy brought tears to their eyes by reading a story. They will never forget their favorite march at Orem when they spent six minutes slipping in the mud or the wonderful times spent in B'Ettes. fontell Messervy Sponsor Kathleen Madsen loreen Todd Margaret Owen Barbara Bott President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Jean Andersen Kristene Andersen Myrlene Andreasen Deon Barker Janet Burt Carla Call Karla Call Julie Chlarson 50 Carolyn Hansen Donna Sheffield Marilyn Evans Historian March Leader March Leader to O ft il 4vf Bonnie Baty Bonnie Beecher Pat Billings Marsha Chlarson Judy Christensen Candy Collier Annette Cook ipnajA ! •(] M®!M uA| a3 ij a|3 au.� ua,.A ua.nS J«q| A � !«V «• • ““V ••! °US 9 8 tU!� °a my Wy � tj ij uo,u,V.d .«u.id u.«o WWX l0oVN «u,a f pm “ l� N |A«o Apooy, u H� H3 «H'W � “� ““ .. ..W ™� � 'q V u u H� i j� W a iua ] auojj� w Au� d uatj i auapao uo«j t uoag J P!

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA The Future Farmers of America jointly with the Future Homemakers of America sponsored a beautiful and success- ful Harvest Ball, Harvest Times Around the World. They appreciated the help of their sponsors, Mr. Dee Hortin and Mr. Norwood Hyer, and the FHA sponsors, Mrs. Mary Ann Page and Mrs. Donna Hurst. The members of the FFA put in many hours learning agriculture, but their efforts are paid off when they come home with the blue ribbons. All in all, whether it was sponsoring a Harvest Ball, winning blue ribbons, or just having fun, the Future Farmers of America did it and did it well. Doo Hortin Norwood J.

FOOTBALL Box Elder's football team again showed its great strength by defeating Bear River in a play-off game after tying with the Bears for the region championship. The Bees then went or to play Orem in a state semi-final game, but were defeated on a snow-laden field. Altogether it was another great year for B.E.H.S.'s pigskin group and one of which we can all be proud. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E. B.E.

Box Elder's basketball team played a great season, showing ball handling and teamwork, that more than made up for the lack of height. The Bees had some tought breaks but still managed to qualify for the state tournament.

Reed Beecher was president of the council with Ellen Gray secretary. Under the direction of Mr. Roland Gourley, the student body officers and executive council have planned the activities for our school and followed through with the enforcement of school policies. Martha Chi non Secretary 95 There it one in every claw. I As the closing strains of Now is the Hour echoed through the new auditorium, we, the seniors, said fare- well. Through our tears of joy and sorrow came memo- ries of years past. As sophomores we were hailed for how we lit the B at homecoming. We were proud of our state cham- pionship football team. Our junior year began with our float, Deep Sea Fan- tasy, winning first place in the Peach Days parade. Our prom, The Green Leaves of Summer, was a creation to be proud of. Our senior year brought another prize-winning float, Roman Antiqua, and a region championship football team. Our talented mom and dad, Rosamond Sleigh and Jordan Larsen, guided us through the problems and activities of seniors. We learned to love them as our own parents. Then, as the graduation ended, we took one last look at BE. We had been a good class: Intelligent, well- disciplined, and courteous. We had set a good example and pledged to always live so that Box Elder would be proud of us.

FROM THE OLD TO THE NEW We, the seniors of Box Elder, started our sophomore year on the beloved campus of the old high school, now known as Box Elder Junior High. How can we ever forget the way we lit the B at homecoming and how everyone marveled at its splendor? We will always remember our remorse when we were kicked out of the assemblies. We were proud of the football team when they took State. The year was characterized by study and by singing and yelling in the halls and the auditorium. We found a change, however, in our junior year, for the new high school was nearly finished. We missed two weeks of school while the workmen worked harder than ever. Peach Days came along and our float, Deep Sea Fantasy, captured first place. Then at last school started. Of course we shared our new, beautiful, grassless school with the workmen, who even insisted on working in our classrooms with us. The most fun was in attending P.E. classes in the new seminary building, band in the library, and choir in the cafeteria. We soon grew accustomed to our surroundings, but there was one rule we found hard to adjust to: No singing, yelling, or whistling in the halls or the auditorium. As Spring pushed Winter from our doors, we were proud to produce the Junior Prom, The Green Leaves of Summer. 124 But besr of ail was our senior year. We helped level the ground around the school building, the football field, and the baseball diamond, and helped plant the grass to give B E. a more landscaped look. We realized that this would be our last year at Box Elder and we wanted it to be worthwhile. Some of us had fun by giving our teachers a bad time, but most of us decided to buckle down and study to prepare ourselves for college and for our future lives in an adult world. We were filled with mingled emotions as we walked across the stage in our caps and gowns to receive our diplomas. There was satisfaction in the completion of our high school work, and sadness in the knowledge that one phase of our life was giving way to another. High school friends and teach- ers would soon become a memory, but it would be a proud and happy memory. We had every reason to be proud and happy, for we had helped to mingle the new with the old we were the graduating class of 1963! Like the Mariner II on its way to Venus, we blazed new trails for others to follow, but like the sun and all that's true, we were able to remain loyal to BEHS and all it stands for in any build- ing or circumstances. The gem of the Junior Clast Tom Davis 126 Class Dad The Juniors have experienced a year that few of them will ever forget. The first thrilling event started with the traditional painting of the town. Many will always won- der which got the most paint, the sidewalk or the Juniors. Their Junior Prom was truly a work of art. Individuality showed up when the Juniors voted for oval class rings instead of conforming to the custom of rectangular rings. Having proved that they were worthy of the title of Juniors, they will strive to live up to the respected name of the Seniors. 1 Fern Gardner Class Mom 127 .yfe Tv, V � 'Wi Kristen© Andersen Jean Anderser.

The Sophomores entered Box Elder as the underdogs. But soon they proved that they were able to accomplish all that was re- quired of them, although many times it took the skilled guidance of their class parents and class officers in order to succeed. The determination of the Sophomores to successfully fulfill all that was required of them has helped to gam the respect that they have obtained. Their pep, vitality, and friendly manners have added greatly to the school spirit. Having lived through a year of high school, the Sophomores have emerged with a greater knowledge of what is required of them at Box Elder. By successfully filling the responsibilities of Sophomores, they have prepared themselves for the responsibili- ties of a Junior. 149 Bruce Allen Fred Allen Roger Allen Paulette Allred Yvonne Allred Lillian Andersen Ladd Anderson Shauna Andersen Diane Anderson ( ■ Jerry Andersen Karen Antles Kathy Anderson Rae Baird 1 Linda Anderson Wally Baird r - Jimmie Ammons Lynn Anderson I Myron Ball Darryl Barker LeAnne Barker LaVon Baron James Bass Ann Baty Jay Baxter Larrie Beesley Greg Belew Russell Bell Gayla Besso Linda Bethuy Larry Bickers Lee Bilbao Calvin Binqham David Bingham Rees Bingham Kathleen Boti 150 151 Man« Burbank Richard Burbank Troy Burbank JoAnne Burt Stephen Burt Gary Busenbark Karen Bush Roberta Card Jerry Cemer Donna Chamber� Linda Chase Steve Chose Brent Checketts Roy Checketts Dennis Child Louis Christensen Lue Jean Christensen Steve Christensen Phil Christensen John Coleman Bruce Collmer Carol Compton Christine Craghead Kathy Crossley Larry Crossley Billy Cutler Walter Daffin Jene Daley Gary Damon Clark Davis James Davis 152 John Davit Charlana Drollatta Lillian Duka Diana Dummar Thomas Duncan Ann Earl Class of 1965 153 Bob Eckhardt Kathleen Edmonds Dee Ann Elgan Ruby Endo Barbara Fillmore Tommy Fishburn Gerald Fisher Shirley Fodnes Kristi Fonnesbeck Helen Forsgren Ray Forsgren Terry Forsgren Rosemary Glenn Rama Glover Gary Gomez Reid Goodliffe Larry Gordon Tim Goss Valerie Gray Patsy Grayman Ronnie Greer James Hackleman C.

TALBOT Superintendent BOARD OF EDUCATION: Harold Felt, Norman Jeppsen, Superintendent Walter Talbot, Jay Dee Harris, David Morrell, Rex E. 170 Richards, James H. Norman. The Home of the Bees . This is Box Elder High School's slogan of achievement. A slogan which recognizes in symbol and in action the unity of purpose at Box Elder High School. It now symbolizes a new phase called STUDENT GOVERNMENT where unity is achieved by em- phasizing the individual. Each is responsible for himself, for developing his abilities, for behavior, for developing ones own personality to prove its uniqueness and its ability to make worthy contributions to society. Student Government provides a new look at youth in whom we should find as many differences as there are individuals and a belief that no two persons can be alike. These variations in personalities provide the opportunity for an unlimited future of achieve- ment here as well as in space. Because of our differences you can be what you want to be if you will pay the price. E. W PAYNE Principal ROLAND M.

As sophomores, we looked up to the seniors as being wise and more experienced than we. They seemed so big, and we were almost afraid of them. But we grew up that year. We only had to be kicked out of the assemblies once to know how it felt and to be quiet during assemblies. JAY Our class parents, Mrs. Sue Jensen and Mr. Lloyd Hust stuck by us in all we did. Our class officers were Jay Stokes, president; Pam Rollins, vice president; and Betty Endo, secretary. The year was full of tests and we met each one with determination to succeed. Our first test, the Peach Day float, we called Devil's Torment. We will never forget building our red project, or the sore fingers we got when we missed the nails. We added a really beautiful lighting of the B to our first homecoming. We stood taller as we heard people exclaim that it was the best they had ever seen it lit. All year we just about popped our buttons with pride for the football team who led us to state championship. As the air became filled with smells, sounds, and thoughts of Christmas, we planned our Christmas dance and assembly. We chose Frost Fantasy as the theme. Our assembly and dance were well done and we were proud of the results. Ellen Gray was chosen as our Snow Queen with Pam Rollins and Marsha Chlarson as attendants. As the time for the Prom rolled around, we began to get snoopy. We'll never forget the juniors who tried to keep us from peeking into the gym while they were decorating. Although most of us didn't learn that the theme was Kashmir, Land of Romance, we did discover that the decor- ations were beautiful. We were thrilled with the school play, Kiss and Tell, which showed a portion of the life of Corliss Archer. At the close of the year we looked back with satisfaction on a job well done. We had spent most of our classtime in tin shacks, but our hearts had been captured by the spirit of Box Elder.

Our class parents were Mr. Lloyd Hust and Mrs. Arlee Laird. They worked with our class officers, Dennis Yamasaki, president; Nancy Burtcher, vice president; and Pam Meals, secretary, to lead us through a fabulous year. Our Peach Day float, Deep Fanta-Sea, glistened in the sun and brought applause and much comment from the people of Brigham City. It won a first place rating and gave us good cause to be proud. Our new school building had not been completed. School had been postponed for two weeks. Still, for the first part of school we attended classes with workmen painting in the same room. We accepted this fact and made the best of it. The only thing we really missed were assemblies. The only ones we had had to be held in the gym because the auditorium wasn't finished until spring. When homecoming came, juniors could be found all over the streets of Brigham City painting the town. We painted it with actual paint—purple and white. We used our creative abilities and made the town look beautiful with the colors of Box Elder. Our biggest task of the year was the Junior Prom. It was the first prom to be held in the new BE gym. We had problems which resulted from inexperience in working in the new larger gym, but everything turned out beautifully and we were proud to announce The Green Leaves of Summer as the theme. The familiar gymnasium slowly lost its true identity as we diligently turned the basket- ball court into a lovely southern plantation with all the necessary atmosphere. Hours were spent cut- ting out green material to make leaves for the many trees strewn throughout the gymnasium. The large stately mansion surrounded by a beautiful fountain added to the atmosphere of the southern estate. Three chandeliers hung from the ceiling, adding a note of dignity and authenticity to the entire scene. We will never forget the school play, Blythe Spirit, or the ghost which appeared in it. Our basketball team went into the state basketball tournament and emerged as consolation champions with a huge trophy to add to our collection We also received the Region I sportsmanship trophy. Once again our hearts surged with pride f - r Box Elder. PAM Mr. Hust and Mrs. Laird Deep Fanta-Sea 'Fruit Fairy Our Prom We painted the town1 176 As our senior year began we realized that we were nearing the end of our school years and that everything we did we would be doing for the last time. We vowed that we would get the most out of the year and work hard, so that we might look back on our year and be proud of our accomp- lishments. We have done this and we have good reason to be proud. The faculty will agree that our class has been one of the best classes ever to graduate from Box Elder. The scholastic abilities of the students was well above average. We had learned to get along with the faculty and our fellow classmates. As seniors we were leaders of the school and set examples for the juniors and sophomores. Our class parents, Jordan Larsen and Rosamond Sleigh, advised us well and were always there when we needed them. Our class officers, Lynn Ritchie, president; Kenny Davis, vice president; and Kathleen Owen, secretary, and our class parents helped us produce the senior play, All My Sons, which will long be remembered by everyone who saw it. The Class of LXIII produced another outstanding Peach Day float when Roma Antiqua emegred from the shop to win third place in the Peach Day parade. The float illustrated Roman gal lentry with a chariot led by two brilliant horses made of paper-mache. The boys in athletics thrilled us and worried us, too. We represented our region in the state football tournament. We entered the state basketball tournament as third place holders in the region. Free dancing lessons were given during the early spring for several weeks on Monday nights. Many of us took advantage of them and learned some new dance steps. The school play, The Late Christopher Bean, was another great achievement of our school. The drama and emotion shown in the play proved the ability of our director and cast in doing a good |ob in dramatics. The last few weeks of school were filled with parties and practices. And then, as we walked across the platform to receive our diplomas at graduation, we looked back over our wonderful years at B E. and tears began to fall. Some tears were of sadness because we would never again return to Box Elder, but some were tears of joy that we had made it and were now on our own to face an adult world and show it what we had learned.
