Motto-------------- 13 SfiflOR TRIP shortly alter And, too, it gives the student something to work for-a goal at the clima: of their high school career. The Senior Class of Buffalo would also like to thank Mr and Mrs, W. Kennedy and Mr, and Mrs, I. 0. Fairbanks for going with us and making Ahis trip possible, more interesting, and most enjoyable. Buffalo High School, departed from Buffalo seven o clock and traveled South on highway 19 toward Harlovr.-on and those who did'nt get up early enough at home, had breakfast in the Harlo Cafe. From Harlow ton we went South and then West to Helena, through Townsend. When we reached Helena, we went through the State Capitol and saw the many different displays inside. We also went into the room where the State Senate meets. Some of the groups took photographs of the Capitol Building and the grounds. We next visited the new Museum Building hear the Capitol in Helena, In this building we saw a collection of paintings, bronze work, and work in clay ' by Charles Russell, which were original and valued at over $250,000, From Helena, we went to Missoula where we stayed over night on the first night of our trip. We attended the State Track Meet Friday afternoon and were present when two track records were set. After the meet we had dinner and went to the College dance held on campus in the Student Union Hall. Bright and early the next morning, following a hectic night, the shining faces of seven Seniors were seen in the lobby of the Park Hotel where we spent the night. After having breakfast we were taken to the State University where we were showed around by Mr, Kennedy. After the tour of the University some of us went shopping indowr - own Missoula while others attended the track meet, A three dimensional movie was featured at the Wilma theater In Missoula, and four of the seven Seniors attended it on Saturday afternoon. It was a’real thriller with the actors and actresses appearing to be on stage in person. After the track meet was over, the Seniors were gathered and we departed for Kali spell where we stayed the second night of our trip. We stopped at St. I matius where a beautiful mission is located, but, due to lack of time, we were unable to go through this mission. We traveled around the beautiful Flathead Lake through breathtaking scenery until we entered Kali spell. We got rooms at the Kali spell Hotel and freshened up before dinner. After dinner we went to a movie and planned to go to a local dance, but due to certain difficulties we were unable to attend it Sundav morning all seven Seniors managed to drag out of the bed again and make it to breakfast. After breakfast we went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fairbanks and the Senior Class met them. They are the father and mother of Mr. I. 0. Fairbanks of Buffalo. From there we departed on the last leg of our trip bound for home. We stopped at the Hungry Horse Dam and took pictures, although it was not open to visitors. From Hungry Horse we journeyed on U. 3. Highway Number 2 which skirts Glacier National Park. Through the park we saw more beautiful scenery along with herds |of deer, elk, and fishermen. Fishing season opened Sunday, boon we I came to Browning where we had lunch and visited a taxidermist’s shop. ! Many types of wildlife were on display. From Browning we came to Great Falls where we stopped at the Dairy Queen for refreshments. From Great Falls we came to Stanford where we had dinner at the Be-Hay Cafe before coming on to Buffalo. It was a beautiful trip with wonderful weather and it was certainly- enjoyed by all. A trip like this is both enjoyable and educational, work for-a goal at the climax 14 Class History i In September of 1911? ten timid first graders started to school They were Mary Alice Dover, Ella Dover, Joan Fairbanks, Betty Hanchett, Robert Hanchett, Elois Ann Barrisicn, Bennie Peterson, Renbelle Hatleberg and Daniel Itami.

We doubt itl 15 K 1 Class Prophecy 16 When we arrived at his house there were a group of children playing in the yard Innocently 1 asked him which of the nine children were his. Only eight’of them M hb replied.. The oilier one is; the neighbor’s, hoy51. After meeting his wife, he introduced me to his eight kids. Their names were: Percival, Aurelius, Archimides, Sophocles, Constantine, Petrofsky, Penelope, and Delphinia. The. next morning I left for Smack over, Arkansas, to interview Joan fairlaife. Arriving at :Smackover l ocated lhis:’ was the company which Joan worked for. I learned that Joan was the General Manager of lining Company. Joan was really quite shocked to see me. She told nut that after graduating she whizzed through a four year business course in three years eleven months twenty two days eight hours and thirty two minutes, after which she joined the Amalgamated lining Co. and rapidly worked her way to the top of this huge business enterprise. In addition to being General Manager of this huge enterprise she is also chief cook and bottle washer for her two nan crew. I left Smackover the next morning at 10:00 and landed at the Petersen Hacienda at 10:29- Ben and Betty and their 10 girls rushed out to greet me as I came to an atonic stop. As I stepped from my fl; bug, there spread before me was the great Metropolis of Buffalo which had grovfo from a pop. of 86 in 1953 to a pop. of 96 in 1973. Thus ended my research to the whereabouts and occupations of the Brilliant class of 1933. Upon turning in my report to my boss. Bill Kennedy Jr., I was given a five cent raise. • ’ - ii3o . - • - I ClO S Sir: fil Vv ci , followed by a proeras planned by-the ?j n} with Mr. Kennedy are sending the at;:letic; •Saccalauraat Buff rile Method i: ■speaker' and llev OMvvO n U rvices we .urch, vf 3' Gin cher .y, May 2:rth at bhi Coxnm. nceuienfc lxer.ci.es were hold Wednesday, May .27 1 at the Buffalo Gymnasrua. fhe Invocat were nr- s eh tea by Rev.
