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

DONALD KINK Grade eleven’s No. 1 comedian!! Donald spends most of his time trying to be funny and usually succeeds. Don managed to get a front seat at the beginning of the year but he claims it wasn’t his fault—Mrs. Drake just wouldn’t give him a second chance! The main reason for his head is to keep his ears apart, but, seriously, he must use it from the looks of his math marks. Donald participates in any school activity that includes girls. He had the honour of handing out poodles to those who sold subscriptions. Don’s ambition is to handle money (his own or someone else’s!!) GRETA ROGER Greta is a very cheerful individual whose pleasing personality has won her many friends. She is no slouch at “gabbing” with the boys as Mr. Pidhomy will confirm. Her immediate neighbours, Patrick, Sidney and Wilfred, never experience a dull moment when Greta is present. Greta was a candidate for Carnival Queen this year, representing the Broadview High School. Her outside interests can be described as “just foolin’ around” as Greta would put it. One of these days, Greta plans to hook one that’s tall dark, handsome, and rich. DONALD FATHERS This dark haired, quiet (??) lad is the scourge of the wildlife around the Edgewood district. Out of school, he can usually be seen filling anything on three or more legs with bullet holes and driving his father’s tractor. Apart from this, Donald is good natured and is able to get along fine with everyone. He is hard working both at home and at school, and is conscientious about what he does. Of course, Donald’s favorite pastimes are driving his Dad’s car and arguing wth his sister. When he graduates, Don plans to run the best farm this side of Oakshela. SHARON CARNAHAN Pianist, artist, scholar, singer, and decorator all describe this dark-haired lass. Sherrie is a good dancer and really makes the rug smoke when she’s dancng with a certain handsome young man from Whitewood. She is also very active in all phases of school life, being social editor of the year book and former business manager for the Curtis Plan. During school hours, she is usually hard at work or exchanging the latest news; with her pals Winnifred, Marion, and Anita. After spending eleven years in the Broadview schools, Sherrie will be leaving us for Three Hills, Alberta. We all wish her every success there. IRVIN BENDER “Quite the little visitor” is our “Ben” as he is often visiting all the Dons, Rons, and anyone else who will talk to him. Irvin has turned over a new leaf this year: now he ambles into school at 8:09 instead of 9:04 just to please Mrs. Drake!! Sports take up most of Irvin’s time as hq is on the football team, the basketball team, and the hockey team. In school Irvin is either bothering Lyndy or smiling at Judy Strandlund. When not parti¬ cipating in sports he is seen tearing around in a light green Pontiac when it is in run¬ ping condition, or in Wyllie’s delivery truck. MARLENE COPE This “sweet gal as Don Reeve calls here is full of vim, vigor and vitality and is always bouncing from one place to another. Marlene sits at the front of the room but this doesn’t keep her from talking to Anita and pestering Fred (that’s a switch!) Besides regular school work Marene finds the time to entertain us with her singing. Her pet peeves are doing her hair and getting stuck (in the middle of nowhere?) She believes that the educational system here is so superb that finished homework is not necessary. Mar¬ lene’s future plans are to decide what to do on leaving Broadview High School. WILFRED BLAUS Grade eleven’s mischief maker occupies a back seat but not because he is quiet. There is nothing Wilfred enjoys better than a good argument with Mrs. Drake in any of her classes. Wilfred spends the majority of his time talking (or rather, complaining about “that composition”), swiping Cathie’s mitts and passing out pencils that don’t belong to him. And if there is a trick played on any one you can be almost positive that Wilfred has had a hand in it!! Since Wilfred is so good at talking he was chosen as the room repre¬ sentative on the Student Council. His ambition is to become a poor old married farmer.

JUNIORS FRED BAHR “Fred! For Heaven’s sakes!! Will you turn around and shut up!! If it isn’t Sherrie yelling, it’s Marlene or Bryan. Poor Fred! When you occupy a front desk, you expect some peace anyway. But then, we can’t have everything. Fred is the question box of grade eleven, always asking, “Mr. Pidhorny, how do you do this??’’ But he manages to get good grades. Besides pestering the teachers and everyone around him, Fred’s likes are curling, country dances and playing his squeeze-box at various social functions. We think his main ambition is to play in Carnegie Hall. CATHIE ANDERSON “How come you never get here ’til the afternoon?” demands Mrs. Drake. “Fill out this note! ” Cathie spends half her life filling out notes and the other half with one certain lad from the grade eleven room. Leslie Catherine Christine Anderson!! Small but mighty describes Cathie perfectly. Cathie sits in a back seat (when she is here) and engages in conversation with the various students around her and enjoys an occasonal argument or battle with Wilfred because “He’s got my mitts again.” Her ambition is a toss up between a farmer’s wife or a tooth extractor. BRYAN NORMINTON Bryan hasn ' t improved since last year, as he still lazes in about 9:05 every other morning. Too much television last night, eh Bryan? He likes deer hunting and the distinct rich smell of money. Our dear? hunter; is a flirt, wants to be a playboy (but can’t afford it) and enjoys spending week-ends on Father’s farm (this causes our curiosity to rise). Bryan is grade eleven’s witty room reporter, and gives us full accounts of his “Nature Trails.” Besides all this he worked faithfully as assistant editor on the yean book (when not hunting rabbits). This lad’d future lies in the field of pharmacy. ANITA ERICKSON “Nita” and her infectious giggle are heard at all hours of the day, especially when talking to Sherrie in French class. Anita is the culprit who contracted “those germs” which subjected the grade eleven class AND Wayne to be injected with hemoglobin. But we were glad to see her back. She loves P.T. period but never participates as she is always ducking from the ball instead of hitting it. Dances, parties, shows and cheerleading take up the majority of her time. She never fails to get her homework done—maybe that is why she finds so much time to sing in school. Anita’s ambition is to go around sticking people with needles, after she gets her R.N. LYNDON REEVE “Corky” must like Broadview High School as he returned to us after having taken a year of school in Winnipeg. Lyndy participates in sports such as curling, skiing, and football. If you hear a big noise at the front of the room you can be sure it’s Lyndon Melvert Reeve: fighting with Helmet, arguing with Mr. Noble, sweet-talking Mrs. Drake or trying to find out who chucked his glasses! Besides sports, Lyndy attends all local dances, and high school parties. He has a weakness for yellow Fords and little redheads? “Corky” doesn’t see why we have to take “ancient Poetry” and pay taxes! Lyndy’s plans are to revise the Canadian Education System. JUDY STRANDLUND If you hear the squeak of a wheelchair you can be pretty sure that Judy will be pushing it. Besides doing all her homework and working part time at the theatre, she still manages to edit the Log for the yearbook. Judy appears to be the quiet type, but when she is with Jean and Leona the opposite is true. She is an ardent supporter of dances, in town and out, likes singing and watching the boys carrying on around her. Judy takes an active part in drama and makes a cute little ghost. Judy would like to become a wealthy man ' s secretary.

GERALDINE CRIDLE Gerry came to Broadview from Regina and went to Regina from Sunset Beach and she now lives in town. Quite the traveller, isn’t she? She spends half her life in the snow¬ banks (who is the “mischief maker” that gives her that extra little shove?) Geraldine seems to have many likes. Some of them are: playing volleyball, learning that French accent, dancing and brushing the snow off her clothes after she is hauled out of the snow¬ bank. She is known as grade eleven’s French whiz!! The only thing that she doesn’t like is “crawling out of the sack.” She will have to get to like it as a nurse’s motto is “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a patient healthy, wealthy and wise”. SIDNEY HANSON Sid can be seen slouched over his desk dozing until Mrs. Drake comes on the scene yelling, “Sidney, sit up and come alive once in a while! Honestly Sidney, you’re such a lazy thing.” But good natured Sid only smiles and slowly sits up. Sid hates homework and maybe this is the reason why he never has it done. He enjoys football, basketball, curling and “blasting” anything on four legs with his fellow “gopher cultivator,” Bryan. “Spinner” will probably end up as a time keeper in a clock factory. LEONA DIMLER “Little Adam” soars in on the Elcapo bus every morning about 8:45. She takes an active part in sports—softball, volleyba ll, and ping pong. Leona likes talking to Jean, reading stories and missing school. She dislikes squeaky stairs, especially when they are extra squeaky in the morning. Leona dislikes doing homework but this doesn’t seem to affect her marks. Her happy-go-lucky smile greets everyone she meets. She has not de¬ cided what her future plans are, but we can always guess. DONALD MISKIMAN Winnipeg! Here I come!! If you can’t see him annoying the teachers you can be sure to hear him. Besides annoying the teachers Don likes curling (his hair?), skating and pestering everyone around him. He must like working as he holds two jobs, in the meat market and the bake shop, OR maybe he just likes money!! But then who doesn’t? “Skim’s” favorite expression is “move back you guys” as this is the only way he can sit at the back. Don likes school but not the report cards that go along with it—especially when you get them on Friday. Donald’s ambition is to live in a nurse’s residence in Win¬ nipeg. Enjoy yourself!! JEAN KIENAS This dark-haired lass jostles in on the Oakshela bus. She id one of the few hard-work¬ ing students of the grade eleven room and is seldom caught without her homework done. One could say her hobbies ' are reading, writing and ‘rithmetic. Jean takes an active part in all sports, particularly volleyball and softball. Good-natured Jean likes everything ex¬ cept olives and “pesty” boys. Although Jean is a good worker this does not keep her from leaning across her desk to talk to Judy. Her ambition is to become a teacher, and judging from the way she is going now, she will be successful. WAYNE LARTER Grade eleven’s class comedian can always be heard mumbling to himself or talking to Terry or Wilfred. Our lively-wire” dislikes French classes as he always seems to be in Mrs. Dreger’s way, moving his desk from corner to corner. His likea centre around dancing, pestering the teachers, and talking to Mrs, Drake at noon. Wayne is always at work—but—what work? We wonder what Wayne is afraid of!! He i3 always taking refuge in the coats at the back of the room!! Don’t worry, her bark is worse than her bite; Wayne likes everything that consists of a good time so he will probably enjoy his future at joining Shuster on the Wayne and Shuster Show. MARIAN WEBB An empty desk and a “Buick” sailing around town, reminds us of Marian, as this lively lass loves skipping school and spends most of her time driving the Buick, the hearse, or the truck. Marian is always smiling or fighting with those who cross her path. Her weaknesses are late nights and early mornings as she never manages to arrive at
