Many of the original members have dropped out and some new ones joined our ranks. As freshmen we studied hard, obeyed all rules made by upper classmen, and suffered our disgrace in silence. The next year as sophomores we began to flower by placing a member on the football team, two on the basketball team, two on the track team and three on the debate squad. Since that time we have been looked upon as the foremost class of the school and try earnestly to uphold this reputation. Page Seventeen Page EiRhtecn Page Twenty-one The Junior Class at the first of the year had an enrollment of one hundred three students. At the time of this write-up there are ninety-four enrolled. Of this number twenty-four students started together in the kindergarten. Thirty-four of the number are non-resident students. Junior Class. BROKEN BOW This class boasts the greatest percent of honor roll students, fine athletic ability, representation in debate, orchestra and chorus, and workers in every department of high school activities. The Junior Class has taken a great interest in Broken Bow High and each member is looking forward to his senior year. Page Twenty-two Sophomore Class Officers.

Came we ninety strong this fall Some were short and others tall Some are fat and others small One or two weigh not at all. We’re big enough, we do not squall, We’re climbing and we never crawl. We think in time to have the gall, To, like the seniors, all appall. Studies have us in their thrall. We study hard lest we should fall Below the mark the teachers call The one that makes us wise as Saul. In our work we seldom stall, And from activities we do not fall. For be it track or in football We freshmen go through like a maul. Page Twenty-nine The Broken Bow Indian. The Indian, Broken Bow student publication, has completed the second year of its existence. The paper devotes most of its space to articles written by the high school students. The paper has grown with the school, stands for it and is at the service of the students and faculty. Each staff member has added his bit to the publication and in spite of many obstacles has always accomplished his end. The Indian has a constantly growing exchange list, many of which have been added this year. Pajje Thirty-one Each chorus consists of thirty-five voices. The public performances for this year consisted of a cantata from The Saga of Eric the Red and three Vesper concerts which were given in the high school auditorium. Page Thirty-two Elijah” will be presented in May by the choruses with the aid of eighty community singers and artists to take the leading roles. At the second semester the choruses w'ere divided into Girls’ and Boys’ Glee Clubs for the purpose of practicing the contest numbers. The chorus will enter the County Music Contest which is to be held April 17 at Sargent. Page Thirty-three Broken Bow High School Orchestra. One of the outstanding organizations of the B. B. H. S. this year has been the High School Orchestra under the direction of Professor Wendell Sanderson. The orchestra organized at the beginning of the school year, is well balanced and consists of twenty-six pieces. The marked progress of this organization was noticeable in the Vesper Concerts given by the orchestra and chorus. This year there has been a drive for instrumentation and as a result the orchestra has been reinforced by the addition of a bass viol, flute and drums. Next year it is hoped to have more of the less common instruments such as the cello, bassoon and oboe. Mr. Sanderson’s efforts to promote interest in the best music is greatly appreciated. Page Thirty-four Student Council. The Student Council of 1927 and 1928 organized under the sponsorship of Mr. Sanderson. The officers elected were: President, Howard Mackie; Vice-President, Angela Mullen; Secretary, Frances Uhlman. In their meetings, twice a month, they have taken up the awarding of letters and the standardization of letters and sweaters. (Those not in the picture are: Walter Leibert, Lyman Weaver and Emerson Wright). Page Thirty-five BROKEN BOW Debators A great many arguers responded to Miss Watkin’s call for debaters. Thirty pupils reported and took part in the inter-class tournament which was won by the seniors. Four students were chosen to represent the school in their conference debates. John McArthur, Edwin and Kenneth Myers composed the team with Howard Mackie as alternate. They upheld both the affirmative and negative side of the question. As the annual goes to press the team has won from Comstock, Loup City, St. Paul and Hartington. Broken Bow was among the four out of twenty-four teams entered in the Hastings College Invitation Tournament to participate in the semi-finals. Sutton handed Broken Bow the only defeat thus far by a 2 to 1 decision. Page Thirty-six Dramatic Club. The Dramatic Club, with Miss Murphy as sponsor, has developed wonderfully in the past two years. The club meets twice a month and enjoys a variety of programs and entertainments. Any student of the high school is eligible for membership in the club. A complete staff of officers is elected each semester and thus splendid training is afforded a great many in executive work. Every member has an opportunity to help with the programs and thus those interested in dramatics have a good chance to get training along that line. From every point of view the Dramatic Club has been a decided success. Page Thirty-seven OKEN BOW Normal Training Class.

The seniors, with Mr. Weekley and Miss Watkin, had an enjoyable rural observation visit. The T. N. T. club has functioned favorably. Part of the meetings were devoted to study and review while others were given to social activity. Splendid co-operation has existed between the rural and grade schools and the department. The seniors consider themselves fortunate in having the guidance and leadership they have had in their two years of preparation. Page Thirty-eiRhc Junior Class Flay. The Junior Class of 1928 presented Second Childhood” at the Lyric Theater February 20 and 21. The play was a comedy in three acts. The audience was very well pleased and reported it to be the best play given here in years. All these compliments make the juniors feel well repaid for all the work and effort they put into it. Well” seniors, better watch your step or you’ll be the dim bulb after all. Page Thirty-nine BROKEN BOW Yo ho my lads, the wind blows free,” and who can deny that the junior girls made the best looking sailors that ever landed in port? Much credit is also due Miss Helen Sterling, who was the solo dancer. The Sailor Skit was one of the most clever specialties ever produced at a class play and it did much to add to the success of the Junior Class Play. Those taking part were: Miss Helen Sterling, Imogene Foster, Myrtle Carlson, Okla Anderson, Helen Landis, Rowena Lewis, Geraldine Cole, Fairy Woofers, Irma McFarlane. Page Forty-one Second Specialty The second specialty of the Junior Play was a very unique stunt that proved to be most interesting and clever. Loren Myers represented Any Man” and while he was seated the different types of girls appeared to him. But though he saw them all he found his heart’s desire only in the Ideal Girl, the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi.” Those talcing part were: Any Man Old Fashioned Girl Party Girl ...... — —..............

The senior class has chosen for its play, Adam and Eva,” a three act comedy produced by special arrangement with Samuel French of New York City. At this time the cast is working hard and will surely give us a very good play at the Lyric, March 28 and 29.

A color tournament preceded the class tournament and served as a practice for the girls. The finals proved to be a hard fought battle between the juniors and sophomores. Much interest was manifested. ivivivivivivi Page Forty-three OKEN BOW The Librarians organized the first of the year with Miss Pinckney as sponsor. The officers elected were: Angela Mullen, president; Doris Russom, vice-president; Edna Patton, secretary; Florence Shepardson, treasurer. Those who have devoted their time and work are repaid in that they receive a valuable training, and also are granted points toward an extra-curricular letter. Forty-four At the beginning of the second semester many new members were initiated to the duties of the library. Although it took time and patience for the adjustment, it gave the advantage of the training to a greater number and lightened the work for the others. The officers chosen to serve this semester were: Ruth Lambert, president; Erma Hutt, secretary; Geraldine Cole, treasurer. iV-A. wTtkA. Pa c Forty-five JOHN McARTHUR. Popularity Contest.

Broken Bow finished the 1927-28 season very successfully, winning nine out of thirteen scheduled games. Two of our men were placed on the All-county team. These men were Gaines, center, and Skinner, guard. Broken Bow lost the Custer County Championship to Arnold this year 11-10. The last half was fast and furious. The Indians” overcame a three point lead at half time. The first half was mostly stalling and ended 3-0. Broken Bow came back having a four point lead on Arnold and less than a minute to play. The ball was lost to Arnold and they tied the count just as the gun sounded. An extra period was played, Arnold making a gift toss good and winning the game. Our men are to be complimented for the splendid attitude they took after their defeats.

For often it is the last important gift to the Little Girl or Boy Who-Is-Theirs. For innumerable years a good reliable time-piece has been the graduation gift supreme, and nothing has come to take its place. Styles change of course, and although many still prefer pocket watches, wrist watches are in great demand today. They arc so popular because they are so convenient and practical. and just as reliable as the pocket watch. We have a most complete line of watches, both pocket and strap, in the recognized standard makes—Gruen-Hamilton-El-gin-Waltham-Benrus-and Howard. Credit extended if desired.

The girl of all girls sat at Leo Insko’s side. Oysters were served. Wildly he gazed about the room. Should he use his knife or his spoon? He did not know. Blushing a deep scarlet, he pulled a revolver out of his pocket and shot himself. Say, Mike, I’ve been sitting here for an hour and this vanishing cream hasn’t moved yet. I am the faithful servant of dumb brutes— though speechless, they suffer the same as do humans. I am the alleviator of the pain and disease which they bear in meek silence. Man. endowed with voice and intellect, can make known his source and cause of suffering bur animals, God’s creatures, endure without a whimper and rely upon me to interpret, diagnose and relieve. Animals, whether canine, feline, bovine or other species, have nerve cells just as susceptible to torture as man. I am their comfort. In sickness and in suffering I minister alike to the yellow' cur owned by an urchin or the sleekest, blooded thoroughbred that ever grazed on blue grass, the prize stock of a millionaire. I am intent on one mission in life—to relieve and cure man’s lowly friends—animals. I am not rich because animals have no bank account . I am dependent solely upon your appreciation (expressed in a check) of services rendered for the relief of your speechless animals. before 1 can pay a single debt for the necessities of life. I am—Your Veterinarian. DR. M. HANSON STAHTINC FROM SCRATCH No HANDICAPS! To insure a clear track and a strong finish get on the right foot with insurance that adequately protects.
