Broadview High School - Beam Yearbook (Broadview, Saskatchewan Canada)

MARGARET ANN THOMPSON: “Marg” or “Maggie,” as she is usually called, is a cheerful, dark-haired lass who “runs around” saying “hi” to everyone. “Marg” is one of those few people, who, instead of paying to see shows is paid for attending them. She likes white-and-brown cars, Russel, eating, and must like her own name, because she even used it in the high school production of “Old Doc.” “Maggie” has an aversion to all sports, geometry and algebra. Her ambition is to be allowed to usher in a restricted adult movie. DON PERRIE: Don comes to school every morning—late! This does not stop him from getting good marks, however. He takes a keen interest in extra curricular activities such as basketball, curling, volleyball, and being vice-president of the high school Literary Society. Last summer he attended Editors’ Workshop in Regina, and is now doing a very good job at being the editor of “The Beam.” Confidentially, he enjoys it, as Ihe majority of the staff are members of the fairer sex. Last summer he also attended the Red Cross Study Centre at Banff. After Don finishes school, we are sure he will succeed in anything he chooses to do. Good luck, Don!

sweet, innocent girl busily doing her work. Sharon spends her summers at the lake soaking up the sun; or is it the moonlight? She carries nine subjects, plays basketball on the girls’ team, curls, attends most of the dances and high school functions, and played the part of “Mrs. Cronin’’ in the high school play. What does she do in her spare time? She is sports reporter for the “Beam.’’ Sharon’s ambition is to make a name for herself (or have it changed?). DONALD MISKIMAN: The suitable description for Don is the grade eleven “Romeo.” The sixty-four thousand dollar question is “who is his Juliet?”. Apart from girls, the rest of Don’s time is filled to capacity with: basketball, volleyball, curling, football, and hockey. The presidency of the Literary Society is handled very ably by Don. Don is an ardent supporter of all school parties as well as most country and town dances. His dislikes center around school and staying home on week-ends. Romeo’s ambition is to become an auto mechanic. MARIE FLEECE: Marie is one of our not so shy, not so quiet, grade eleven “Chatterboxes.” This year she played on the starry Grade Eleven Girls’ Volleyball Team, who, due to unfortunate circumstances, lost every game they played. “Minnie’s” out-of-school pastimes are “riding around” in a certain white Ford, and going to the show with Floyd. When not being bothered by Terry, Marie has a chance to “gab” to Ruth and Vivian about past, present and future week-ends. When Marie finishes high school, she wishes to become a teacher or a secretary. TERRENCE FITZGERALD: “Fitz” occupies a seat directly in front of the teacher’s desk, where a close eye can be kept on him. That is, when he can be kept in his desk. Sometimes Mrs. St. John has a hard time doing this, besides trying to pound (and we mean pound) some French into the heads of the French class. Terry has an enormous figure, a huge diet, long sleeping hours (most of them after midnight), no ambition, and a liking for knocking down power poles with his father’s car. “Fitz” is a member of the Grade Eleven Champion Volleyball Team, and due to the fact that he “sweeps a mean broom” in curling, he skips his own rink. His ambition after finishing grade twelve is a big secret; but he says his old age pension may keep him. JAMES MISKIMAN: “Zeke,” as the teachers will tell you, is one of the most active “angels” in the grade eleven class. He is a real “whiz” during French class (he doesn’t take French!). Perhaps if he told Mrs. St. John some of his jokes she might be more willing to allow him to “ramble” about the room. “Wes” likes girls, and having “rattly black Pontiacs” to chase them with. His other interests are curling, hunting, and pulling his car out of the ditch. Teasing and annoying Ruth are his favorite pastimes in school. Jimmy is one of the members of the “Shrimp Club” who is still small. Jim has a great ambition; to be an electrician. ARNOLD GALBRAITH: Arnold finds school a bore. The only reasons he comes to school, he claims, are to annoy the teachers and get a good rest. He is usually successful in both of these aims. Wandering around the room, poking people who are at the pencil sharpener, sleeping, and walking Wilma to school make up Arnold’s school day. He dislikes being out of money, and says that he would dislike being alone on a desert island. Arnold’s ambition, after he leaves school, is to become a television technician. BOB PETRIE: Big, Brawny, and Brainy, describes Slug.” He didn’t get his name by playing tiddly winks; so better look out! Bob enjoys all sports, especially football and hockey, is on the Grade Eleven All-Star Volleyball Team, and was on the school curling rink in the unit competition. Bob attends most dances, and if he isn’t satisfied with the music, he will get out his old “squeezebox” and squeeze” out a few “foot-stomping” polkas. Although Bob dislikes Social Studies, he loves to argue with Mrs. Drake. Bob’s ambition is to either make the Roughriders or to take over from Jacques Plante.
