THE STAFF OF THE BULLDOG PROUDLY PRESENTS REFLECTIONS OF 1974-1975 Editors: Tom Tianmer Fred Preitauer Advisor: Barabara Malone Photographers: David Fisher Richard Rouns Del, Ty, Stephanie, and Dome Fried To Mr. Fried: A real teacher among teachers, You taught us about Chief Joseph and his valiant leadership of the Nez Perces Indians, From you we learned of George Plummer, his gang of Innocents, and their counterparts, the Vigilantes. We'll never forget the fun sessions of learning the counties and their county seats in Montana History! You've taken us through the Revolutionary War and World Wars I and II, We've learned about the Great Depression and the stock market crash of '33. Now we know and understand the basic structure of our American Government and the Christian principles upon which America was founded and which constitute our great heritage. You're not only a teacher but a coach, marriage counselor and a quiz master in Current Problems. You've given us tips for a happy, meaningful life. You even sermonized us right up to baccalaureate! For all this we, the class of 1975, thank you and dedicate this, our annual, to you . . . 2 ADMINISTRATION W © FIRST ROW: Board Members: Lawrence Styren, Leroy Rouns, Rodney Carlbom, Ralph Bishop.

Audrey and Arleen Johnson were familiar to the surroundings and showed their new classmates around. Those who have braved 12 long years of Brady schooling are Janette Baumann, Howard Bergstrom, Randa Froebel, Garla Jermunson, Audrey Johnson, Arleen Johnson, Fred Preitauer, Richard Rouns, and Diane Weikum. Other first grade classmates were Susan Annonson, Kim Deardorff, Raymond O’Brien, and Ken Shook. Mrs. Conroy always had her hands full. Mrs. Moor opened her door to a second grade of 11 pupils. Susan and Kent couldn't handle another year of Brady and went on their way. The class grew to 16 in the third grade with the addition of Dick Hodgson, Christine Hull, Clinton Thompson, Jim Thompson, and Terri Tronson. Another new addition was Mrs. Mabes. The fourth grade grew tc 18 when Patrick Isabell, Malvin Copenhaver, Tom Tranmer and Vicki McOmber bombed on. Jim and Clintor. Thompson departed to bigger and better things. Mrs. Pearson did her best to reform us. The class remained 18 when Diana Hastings, Sandy Petersen, and Gary Olsen moved in. Raymond O'Brien, Christine Hull, and Patrick Isabell left us. Our fifth grade year went by sitting boy-girl, and with the sixth grade across the room laughing at us. Mrs. Nelson, the new teacher, and Terese Babcock were our sixth grade additions. Everyone will always re- member the candlelight story hours. Kim Deardorff left us and Kevin Rubens joined the class as we bravely entered Junior High. Truth or Dare was everyone's favorite game on our many bus trips. 6 The eighth grade population was 25. Mike Eaves, Ruby Eaves, Diane Condon, Gary Warner, and Dennis Walker joined our class, but Dennis was the only one to stay. Brady High School was greeted by 21 scared, anxious, and noisy Freshmen. No one came or left throughout the year. Everyone was initiated in style and the rest of the year flew by. Our sophomore year in high school brought to us J. W. Swinney, Kathy Jung, and Ron Troy. Ron only stayed a couple weeks, but we all enjoyed his visit. J.W. left after the year ended. As Juniors, Ruth Chewning, George Buchfink, and David Fisher were welcomed to the Brady Class of 1975. Finally upperclassmen, everyone became anxious for, and started planning our senior year. George left during the summer for Great Falls and Ruth moved to Conrad during the year. Gary Olsen de- cided he'd rather work, so our class graduates 21. Throughout the last 12 years the Class of 1975 has met many new people. Some stayed with us and some left. We wish the best of luck to everyone who has ever been in our class wherever they are now. HERE WE ARE NOW. . . ANY IMPROVEMENT? 7 As the president of the Class of 1975. I have been chosen to give this message. As we leave the doors of Brady High School for the last time, we would like to give a special tribute to our parents, for the help they have given us. Our parents have influenced us and we have become our parents' reflection. Now it is time for us to become our own person. The most valuable thing that we have acquired during our years at Brady School, is friend- ship. Learning to get along with other people is something we will be able to use throughout our lives. We will forever have fond memories of BHS, and without the friends we have come to know, there would be no memories. Each of us cherish the memories we have come by through these years. Along the way we've learned some valuable things. You have to make the good times your- self, take the little times and make them big times, and save the times that are alright for the ones not so good. And now I bid farewell on behalf of the class of 1975. 8 “CHERISH YESTERDAY. . . LIVE TODAY. . .
