 HISTORY Very unusual were the seven passengers who landed their airplane in the Assembly of Buffalo High in September, 1923, with the idea of making it their headquarters for the next four years. The upper classmen were surprised by the calm, self-possessed mein in which these supposedly green students conduc- ted themselves. They soon came to the front in all of the school activities. Corban Brim, Hope Ristine, Otto Seng, Victor Reimers and Gladys Oliver enrol- led in the orchestra. Hope won second place in the annual Declamation Contest, and received the Kay Memorial Medal. Victor Reimers entered athletics and worked up to the position of sub—the very first thing. Originally, Charles Breese was an occupant of the airplane, but he soon left for California. Eth el Galey was the other member of that illustrious class. She was loyal to Buffalo High and her class, and helped them carry their banner on. Next September the six remaining of last year’s class, along with Willis Noel,were termed Sophomores. This class led the school in scholarship. Girl’s Basketball started and Ethel came forward as an outstanding player. There were three girls and two boys in the class at this time. Corban and Otto having gone away. The class participated in all the school events for the year. Gladys came second in Declamation and Hope third. Willis journeyed to Bozeman in January to attend the Sixth Annual Boy’s Vocational Conference. During their Sophomore year they even predominated in social affairs. They gave a dance in honor of the Freshmen—one of the outstanding social events of the year. The next year Lillie May Hammer entered the class, Hope went to Bozeman to represent the High School at the Eleventh Girl’s Vocational Conference, in November. Victor later on in the school term was one of the three boys who attended the Boy’s Conference. Again this class was well represented in track, basketball, declamation and orchestra. All the while each and every member was striving to keep the school standard high. They were very fortun- ate in being allov ed to publish the last four issues of ”The Booster”, acquir- ing some practical experience in that type of work. They were still ’’sailing on” and the next fall they returned as full- fledged seniors. Immediately they assumed their responsibilities as such and by the end of the second week they put out the first edition of ’’The Buffalo Booster , Volume III. Being both dignified and jolly they were ready to hold the traditions of the school aloft and to strive for the better things in life. When basketball season opened, the whole class entered this sport. Ethel was compelled to drop out after the first game. She was a valuable player and the team was sorry to lose her. Gladys represented the school at the Girl’s Voc- ational Conference at Bozeman. In January the Seniors turned The Booster” over to the Juniors and commenced work on the Annual, In the spring came the Basketball Banquet, Victor, Willis, Hope and Gladys received letters and these tv o girls along with Lillie May received a basketball pin from the coach Mss Zehnder. They were very busy those last two months of school getting ready for the school play and commencement. Added to this was the Annual work. Then on May 27, they were formally graduated from the Buffalo High School and the airplane that had conveyed them to the High School four years ago was now ready to take them out into life. L
