THE 61 BULLDOG PRESENTED BY SENIOR CLASS OF BRADY HIGH SCHOOL BRADY, MONTANA -7 DEDICATION J We, the class of 1961, would like to dedicate our annual to Mrs. Ruth Pratt in appreciation for thirteen years of faithful service in the lunchrooms of Brady Public Schools. During these years she has uncom- plainingly served our lunches, forgiven our transgres- sions, and aided us in our misfortunes. Therefore, we believe this honor belongs to her. ADMINISTRATION SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1961: Congratulations and good luck! Special affec- tion and interest will always be mine because you are the first class to graduate under my administra- tion. As you leave this school, remember the admoni- tions of your teachers and parents. Face the future with a clear eye and a light heart. This is not the age of despair, it is the greatest age in the history of man. Remember that the process of learning does not end with the completion of this or any other for- mal school. Go forth to the future which lies before you, knowing full well that the best wishes of the Board of Education, the Administration, the faculty and staff go with you.

First, I would like to thank our parents for their guidance and help throughout our school days. Now we realize the importance of the education they have furnished us. We deeply appreciate their efforts on our behalf. Next, our thanks to our teachers who have put up with us the past twelve years. Yes, we owe much to our teachers, and we sincerely hope that they will accept our thanks, even though inadequately expressed. Will you, teachers who have done so much, read between the lines of this address and remember that we truly are thankful and want you to know that your influence will go with us far beyond the hours of school time? The school board, too, deserves thanks. We have accepted their work with no mention of appreciation, but we have been quick to grumble if they made rulings contrary to our liking. They have had the responsibility of hiring teachers. Have we ever thanked them for making such good selection? They have provided us with this excellent school, containing all the facilities for a modern education. We extend our heartfelt thanks. The Brady Community also deserves an expression of gratitude. They have cheered us in our sports, bought our cakes and annuals, listened to our com- plaints, given us advice, and provided a good community atmosphere. I am happy to be the one to express our thanks as we prepare to say fare- well” to our school. Some of us will go on to school, others may stay at home or enter business, but whatever we do, and wherever we go, our hearts are full of gratitude, and we are happy to have this opportunity to express it. Once more, thank you - and farewell. HAROLD CYR ---------- ----------------------------------—Lv_ Sponsored by DRAKE’S DRUG STORE, Conrad, Montana Bonnie Hofland Howard Kruger Brenda White Gordon Schlepp CLASS HISTORY There are seven Seniors graduating this year, four boys and three girls. Of this graduating class, the following began and completed their grade and high school education in Brady: Vern Hodgson, Bonnie Hofland, Gordon Schlepp, and Brenda White. Margo Coghill joined us when we were in the fourth grade. She transferred from Collins, and has been with us since that time. Harold Cyr joined us in the eighth grade, transferring from Great Falls. Howard Kruger, from the Knee's Community, joined us our Freshman year to make the seventh member of the class. Virgil Laasch, Boyd Magdall, Sherry Russell, and Verna Stinson left us dur- ing their Freshman year to enroll in different schools. Virgil Laasch is now married and is serving in the Army in Germany. Boyd Magdall is completing school in Flathead County High School in Kalispell. Sherry Russell will com- plete her education in New Agat Village, Guam, Marianas Islands. Verna Stinson is attending school in Veneta, Oregon. Sharily Bartsch transferred to Kings Garden High in Seattle at the end of her Junior year to complete her Senior year. Margaret Britton left us this same year to enroll in the Great Falls College of Education. As our school life draws to a close we look forward with regret to leaving Brady School, where we spent so many happy days as a class. And so, Brady High, farewell. m JUNIORS Phil Fogg President Gary Petersen Vice President Cheryl Kauk Secretary Gary Dyer Student Council Representative John Driessen Phyllis Thompson Douglas Schlepp Gerald Severson Dolores Wesley John Miller Merle Pauli SOPHOMORES Paul Perry President Delvin Trost Vice President Gary Gollehon Secretary Karen Weikum Student Council Representative Barry Barrington David Erdman a f JC- r HH .O, ft % 7 K Ff im •v Si Stanley Nash Gerald Pauli Jfc ▼ a' w iTi o ■ 9 Kip Keller Sharon Hilliard Harold Lindsey Richard Matthys Velma Thompson Randy Moser Sponsored by BRADY GARAGE, Brady, Montana FRESHMEN Lyndon Goodrich President Kay Fagan Vice President Dianne Petersen Secretary Mike Otness Student Council Representative Kenny Boggs Hazel Britton June Fladstol Roy Fladstol Carl Kaun Judy Hodgson Roberta Morhardt Joseph McLean Dennis Muck Sherry Stinson Dennis Petersen Terry Sloan Sponsored by Spanish class Badminton??
