We are very thankful for what all the •ohool board and people of Carter oounty hare done to wake this one of the beat schools pos- sible. The present sohool board have been very ef- ficient with the business of the board. They ■eet on the first Tuesday of every nonth. Members of the board are: Vernon Silvis ohalrnan; Frances Bohulti, secretary; Walter Anderson, William Lambert, Mrs. Eva K. Butcher, Mrs. Vivian Castleberry, and Walter J. Buyer. The high school history of Carter county be- gan in the year 1909. In that year the first high school work was added to the intermediate course. The school at that tine consisted of three departments, Miss Luoy Markin having charge of the first three grades, Mrs. 8. A. Holt the seventh, eighth and ninth. There were but two boys enrolled in the ninth grade that year, and the oourse consisted of English com- position, algebra, and anolent history. Mrs. DeLoss Hall is the only remaining per- son of the board of that time. On October 16, 1920 when the board met for its regular meeting they donated all the equip- ment and building of Dletrlot No. 15 to darter oounty high school. The building known as the old high school was built for the Distrlot in 1921. In 1926 Mr. Rowley began to teach the grade school and was given the responsibility of be - lng Principal in 1928. When the old building was completed it was the beginning of the first public sohools in Ekalaka and the last of the District oontrol. Mr. Rowley became the high sohool principal in the fall of 1934. The old building was •till in use, and there were only 86 students and 12 graduates that year. On October 30, 1937 a oontract was 1st for the construction of the building we now occupy. The work began immediately with Mr. Boesplug as contractor, and on July 6, 1938 the building was proclaimed to be finished at a total oost of 69,271.67. Carter county high school opened at the new building in September, 1938 with W. 0. Rowley Principal, and the olass of 1939 with 21 members was the first to graduate from it. Shirley W. Callaghan Jean Diokson Jessica Hunt William C. Rowley Jessie Callaghan Gladys Tavlin Principal William C. Rowley has been with the Ekalaka school system since 1925 and with Carter high since 1934. He has seen the olasees of Carter grow from the 12 of 1934 to the 43 of 1942. He is the only teacher now here who was here to help open the new high school building in 1936. Mr. Rowley, who is always on the Job, sees that everything 1 a kept in order. He is friendly with everyone, but means business when the time requires. He received hiB education at Kansas State Teaohers College, Montana State University, University of Missouri, and University of Mich- igan, receiving B. A. and M. A. degrees. Coaeh Shirley Callaghan, teacher of Carter high for the past two years, coached the win- ning basketball team of the dlstrlot 4 tourna- ment last year. Mr. Callaghan has charge of boys physioal education and the history olasees. Mr. Callaghan is a quiet person but always has that ever ready smile, when everyone yells ■Smile, coach, smile. He received his B. A. degree at the Univers- ity of Washington and also studied at Dillon Normal School. Jean Dickson, supervisor o f the school's library and chorus director, is that happy-go- lucky faculty member. She i8 the type of person who is easy to be- come acquainted with and once you have met her, you will never forget that smiling face. Teaching English and social solence are her duties. She has a B. A. degree from Montana w ww w.... record of in this locality with She has made a large ereity. Hunt holds the excellent having taught 18 years only one day of absence, contribution to the school in many ways, having directed many successful plays. One of the easiest teachers to become ac- quainted with or explain your troubles to, she never refuses to help anyone. Solence and biology are her specialities. Mrs. Hunt received her B. A. degree at Indiana University. Gladys Tavlin, supervisor o f the CARTER BROADCASTER and MEDICINE ROCK for the past four years, has done a great deal toward the ad- vancement of the school. Who can be more serious and yet so much fun as Mrs. Tavlin? She has a B. A. degree from Willamette Uni- versity. Last but not least Is Jessie Callaghan, com- mercial teacher of Carter high Tor the past two years and supervisor of girls physical eduoa- t nn classes who has done muoh to prepare girls of the school for Jobs they will be capa- ble of after graduation. __ She is a good companion of the girls, they find no better enjoyment than to sit and chat with Mrs. Callaghan. She always has something interesting to tell everyone who C° Mren Callaghan attended Eastern College o f Education, Kinman Business University, and Montana State University. Eight bewildered seniore entered the Jour- nalism class of 45 last fall and after much work became acquanlted with the Journalism field as each issue was produced. They have published the CARTER BROADCASTER every two weeks except before the Teachers Con- vention, before Thanksgiving vacation and before the District 4 Tournament in Miles City when it was published three days ahead of schedule. CARTER BROADCASTER staff Is a member of the Montana Interscholastic Editorial Asso- ciation, and received an excellent rating last year from this organization. From the Quill and 8croll International Honorary Society they received an A for Achievement. This year the CARTER BROADCASTER was only a six page paper because of paper shortage. Each issue was in color; for Valentine's Greetings, red and white, and other issues colors accord- ing to the season. Each paper has contained around 30 ads and there have been 225 subscribers to the BROAD- CASTER. The staff has tried to produce a more inter- esting annual this year, the MEDICINE ROCK was contracted for with Mr. George Basye, who was their photographer. — The Journalism staff of '45 from left to right in ploture above include Phyllis Asbury, art editor; Ida Lee Kennedy, society editor; Dan Peterson, sports editor and business man- ager; Mrs. Tavlln, sponsor; Erma Lea Taylor, mimeograph operator; Alberta Yates, editor-in- chief; Lorraine Thompson, advertising manager; and Betty Kingsley, class editor.

STORY The history of the class of 1945 is so dra- matic and colorful that it resembles a play— one that disregards all rules of drama. I shall try to review this play, The Class of 1945,1 in an unbiased manner. This is a play in four acts, with three all- too-brief intermissions. It was written by the actors as they played their parts, under the direction of Mr. Rowley, the principal, and a group of capable assistants, the faculty. It is produced by the board of education with the cooperation of taxpayers. The scenes all take place in the high school building, in the hall, gymnasium, and study hall. The settings are plain, showing signs of much use. Act I shows the arrival of 49 starlets in the halls of learning. Their timidity and curious mistak.ee furnish some bright comedy moments. But now in the spotlight is that rogue, Initiation, sent out by those individ- uals known as sophomores. My! what pranks and capers he does pull and the costuming 1b in- triguing. Initation and his pranks are soon over and the sophomores show that they have our hearts by entertaining our very special star- lets. Did I say starlets? They are truly stars, now known as freshmen, and they prove it by honoring the sophomores in return with a party. During the act we see glimpses of the vllllan, Study, who Is of an alarming sire and proportion. It is evident that he will inter- fere with the enjoyment and leisure of the actors. Tragedy seems Imminent when the fresh- men tangle with brother villian, examinations, but with some exertion of their tired brains they win. Act II and the actors, due to a promotion , are now known as sophomores. Some have become weak and tired and feel they cannot stand up to Study, hence there are only 37 stars on the stage. It is now their privilege to conjure up Initiation, and as usual this character makes the freshmen feel foolish and look doubly so. After the tricks and folly are over, our very special actors entertain the recently admitted and everyone soon becomes friends. Due to weather conditions in the previous act, Initiation had not been able to pull his favorite prank; that of making the freshmen paint the traditional -CB on Baker hill. Our stars feel they must keep tradition alive and so tho Job is done one fine fall evening and they are rewarded by hot-dogs from the Juniors. Tha giant monster. War, cannot be seen in this play but his Influence is felt neverthe- less in our drama every week when all classes meet to buy war stamps and bonds. Feeling that merely buying stamps is not enough, the sopho- mores give a dance shortly after the tourna- ment, the proceeds of which go to the Red Cro s s, After an intermission which seems all too short we stagger back for Act III. Behold! but there they are in their same places--which may make the play sound monotonous but I assure you it most certainly is not. The actors seem changed now—more poised, definitely better groomed, and very sure or themselves ror now they are Juniors—upper classmen. They en- counter the villian frequently but for the most part they come through with flying colors. Being Juniors they have the privilege of producing a play of their own. They choose a delightful comedy, Gone With the Girls, under the direction of Mrs. Hunt. This act would not be complete without mention of the Prom—a very formal affair with ewishy skirts and suits with ties. How they did work to get the ballroom ready for the affair! The constructed cherry trees i n blossom and the room complete with blue and silver streamers was very festive indeed. Act III is drawing to a olose and as usual there ie the conflict with Study and Examin- ations but they are both drastically defeated. The curtain rises on Act IV at last and although there are only 22 stars left in the cast they are so matured and at ease that we can rest assured they will oarry on with ban- ners flying. Even the villian, Study, seems less formidable and many of the actors are on much more familiar terms with him. Wouldn't it be curious if we get to like him? Something new has been added — yes, the seniors are wearing rings and they certainly are proud of them. Homecoming ie a special event for them this time and though they are small in numbers they work for all they are worth and sure enough, our own Alberta Yates is crowned queen of Carter high. What la all that strange eoetuming? Our actors look as if they didn't have a penny to their names. I understand now—it is the annual Senior Barn Dance and the costume theme is hard times. Not only is the costuming unique but the gym certainly looks like a barn with its hay, saddles, harness, Elsie, and other decorations to add to the effect. Again in tins act tne actors produce a play of their own. This time they choose a mystery. Ghost. With such an all-star casW and the direction of Mrs. Hunt it is Inevitable that it is a success. The Class of 1945 is fast drawing to a close and many hearts are weak with anxiety. One last struggle with Examinations and the seniors emerge victorious with a new-found friend , Study. Several stars who showed promise In the proceeding acts have distinguished themselves. They are Alberta Yates, Erma Lea Taylor, Betty Kingsley, and Phyllis Asbury, The play ends in a burst of glory, with flowers, music, and congratulations—in short, graduation exercises; and we have the well- known and ever-popular happy ending. SENIOR Upon behalf of my client, the class of 1945, of Carter County High School, City of Ekalaka, State of Montana, U. S. A., I have called you together upon the solemn and serious occasion, to listen to her last will and testament and to receive from her dying hand the few gifts she has to bestow in her last moments. Cutting so rapidly loose from life and find- ing so many things of gigantic proportions to be attended to before the end should come upon her, realizing at the same time that she has no longer any time left to spend in cultivation of her own virtues, she did collectively and in- dividually do her best to distribute wisely un- to those who will make the best use of such gifts she has In her power of bestow, the tal- ents that have served her so faithfully these four years. These are her decisions, as at last defini- tely arrived at through very deliberate consid- eration. We, the class of 1945, in 22 individual parts, give and bequeath to our beloved Princi- pal W. C. Rowley, our sincere affection, our deepest reverence, our heartiest gratitude, and the whole unlimited wealth of our eternal mem- ory. In an attempt at partial payment for all that he has done for us during our long years at Carter high, we make over to him, here and now, a heavy mortgage on our future In the great Unknown Beyond. It shall be his to watch every step of our upward and onward flitting, to note each trail, each attempt, each victory, each success and honor that we may achieve in the arena of the world and to acoept for him- self, as interest on our deathless debt, every honor, knowing that is all due to his faithful instructions. We give and bequeath to the dear faculty of Carter County high school, who have been our instructors in all the wisdom of the ages a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nlgnts and peaceful dreams. No longer need to lie a- wake through the long watches of the night to worry over the uncertainty of whether this one is doing her English, or that one will have her shorthand in the fifth period, or the other one will have read his history, and can recite without his book open. It has been a hard strain on them, for seniore are said to be at all times and under all conditions difficult to manage. But they have all done their duty, and verily, now shall they have their well-earned reward. We give and bequeath to the Junior class our well-known nerve which they will need next year, and sill the questions in our American history tests. We believe an examination like history repeats itself, and the answer never owned entirely have long since been mislaid by us and are not included in this legacy. To our good friends, the sophomore class, we leave our patience. It will be found useful as the only means by which they can endure the Juniors. Freshman, soon to be sophomores we leave them the intelligence we have gained during our four long years at Carter high. This gift is rather small so use it generously in order to make it last till you are seniors. For the coming freshman class, we leave our ability for at least half who start to become seniors, we leave but little to this class, be- WIL L cause we took us so long to learn. Individual bequests, are but small but we hope they may be accepted not as worthless things lavishly thrown away beoause we can no longer keep them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them, and a continual re- minder of the generosity of here displayed in our and full bestowal. PHYLLIS ASBURY leaves to Floyd Bailey her ability to decorate the BROADCASTER. We know Floyd will eucoeed, due to interest he has shown during the year. WILMA BOGGS leaves with Helen Rozdal her constant giggle and hope that Helen will find the funny side of life as Wilma has. MINNIE JEAN BRADY rightfully leaves to any girl her interest in the lower classmen provid- ed they will take special care and not over due the interest in them. To Roberta Stelg goes VERLE HUTTON'S stupen- dous height. BETTY KINGSLEY wills her ability to write Navy Blue and Khaki to Rose Ella Anderson. Don't take too much advantage of this position, Rose Ella. To Skeeter Hedges goes LAWRENCE KLAUZER'S way of cheating in history class and getting by with it. We are quite sure Skeet can carry on. FRANK LABREE leaves hiB position on the basketball squad to Shorty Townsend. We hope that your height will not deprive you of this honor, Loyd. BOB HEDGES requests that we will his inter- est in the alumni to Raymond Stewart, Bob is sure you will be greatly pleased with this gift, Raymond. To Dean Albert goes DAN PETERSON'S place as sports editor on the BROADCASTER staff. ANNA ROZDAL leaves to Mary Ellen Woodward her irresistible big brown eyes. ERMA LEA TAYLOR wills her ability to attain a scholastic letter to Eugene Ludwlck, I'm sure you will appreciate this gift, as it isn't everyone that has this to give. LORRAINE THOMPSON leaves her position as Cheer Leader to Lylene Hubbard. We hope you will show the pep, Lorraine has shown in the past two years. To Arnold Offerdahl goes JULIA RAE STRAIN'S ability to make the piano talk. We hope the public will enjoy Arnold's playing as much as they have Julia's. SARAH WALTER wills her quietness and self- possessed manner to the olass of 1949. To Donald Boggs goes BOB SENRUD'S interest in books. Donald, we hope you will take this seriously and become more interested in reading in your last years. ERVIN SCHWEIGERT wills his place with Unole Sam to Leland Gundlach, while ELEANOR SCHWEI- GERT leaves the addresses of her soldier pen pals to Rita Babb, Eleanor hopes you will keep up the moral of the armed forces. ALBERTA YATES leaves her queenship to Elea- nor Rllley. FERN McCAMISH wills her interest in the cur- rent basketball team to Bernice Elmore. MADLON PEABODY leaves with the inexperienced beauty operators of Carter high her ability to fix hair. To Frances Brence goes IDA LEE KENNEDY'S temper. Last but not least, MAX LOEHDING leaves his undisturbed manner to Harriet Niee. SENIOR PROPHECY The members of the class of 1945 have been very much Interested In psychology. Many of them have taken profound oouraes In suoh awe- inspiring phases of the subject as psychoanaly- sis and naturally they got all wrought up about their regressions and Comdexes. When the renowned psychiatrist. Professor Lebdullah Freudson-Brilllng came to town and opened a consulting room for the mentally unfit and the intellectually unsettled, all these earnest students rushed in to see him. Now don't misunderstand me. I am not im- plying that they were unfit, unsettled, or un- anything. They all went to be psychoanalyzed. Of course no one ever found out what Professor told them, but it was generally reported that they were most anxious to learn in what field of endeavor they would be most successful. And now comes the exoitlng part of my story. Last night I, too, had occasion to enter Pro- fessor Abdullah Freudson-Brilling s office. No, not because of any mental weakness; merely to collect the rent. My father owns the build- ing. And what do you think? The Professor wasn't in, and to kill the time I read the mag- azines you find in a doctor's offloe. After reading through them, I looked for more mate- rial and all I could find was a blaok-covered notebook at the very bottom of the pile. It was filled with cloeely typed notes. As I was about to close it, I saw, to my amazement, the names of ay classmates. I looked again and discovered that those notes were the Profes- sor' ■ private and genuine opinion of those who had consulted him. I confess it without shame: I read that notebook. And what I found out I oopled down, eo I'd not forget. PHYLLIS A8BURY--hae artistic ability, keen business sense and an understanding of the so- called human race. A dozen years from now she will be a wealthy cosmetician proprietor of the Beautlfler Shoppe, alterations while you wait, an up-to-date shop, combining the arte o f beauty, culture, and plastic surgery. People— men as well as women—will enter looking like 60 and emerge looking like 16. She will become the most famous renovator and face-lifter in the world. WILMA BOGGS—1s a composite type with no in- hibitione and few ideas and loves publicity. She belongs to no type in particular and to all In combining the features of each, with a comely appearance and striking personality. She hae a good strong voice, can elng two entire songp without losing the tune and doesn't mind doing anything no matter how silly so long as she is well paid for it. Ten years from now your favorite motion cathedral will be display- ing huge signs announcing Miss Wllma-America'e Girl Friend 1 n Cinderella's Sandals. Mise Wilma talks, sings, dances, and plays three musical instruments including the vaccuum oleaner. ■ MINNIE JEAN BRADY—is a rare type with a great interest in being prompt and hae a won- derful memory. This manner would express a very efflolent stenographer. Ah—but you are wrong for the Profesaor predicts her as going to be the most famous girl Jockey In the world, she will travel all over the U. 8. A. and meet many prominent people. BOB HEDGES—zhe wonder child of the senior class, not in the sense you would believe but wonders what he will get on the test he didn't study, predicts a very prominent future for himself. Twenty years from now you will see the owner of the World's Fair none other but Bob Hedges. If anyone asked which part of the fair he preferred he would reply enthusiastic- ally, The Bearded Lady. VERLE HUTTON—is a strange ease, troubled by a recurrent dream in which she is a canary bird being chased by a oat. She told me she thought the dream meant that she would be keeper of a pet shop. Quite wrong. She will be a great singer. In 1960 she will be singing the title role of any opera you may name in the Coamopol- it n Opera House and will not recognize her friends. Cheerful, lively IDA LEE KENNEDY will not remain a email town girl but will be one of the most important people of the United States. She will achieve her popularity beoause of her ability to decide what she wants and go after it and because she is not afraid to say what she thinks. She will become famous as a speaker and eventually she will run for the presidency of the United States. She will not win but in the following eleotion, however, her eldeet daughter will be candidate for president and will win. This mill be only the beginning of the unending String of women presidents and in all the history books Ida Lee will be called The first woman to run for office as Presi- dent. ■ BETTY KINGSLEY—takes great interest in her work and will continue to improve her abilities as stenographer in Rosedale, Tennessee. Be- cause her employer of that city will not have enough employment to keep her busy she will use all her spare moments to increase ■peed in writing short-hand. After much prao- tioe she will enter one of the famous Gregg Short-hand Teste and win the'coveted diamond for talking dictation at 200 words a minute. Betty will obtain the position as private sec- retary to the President. LAWRENCE KLAUZER—is not a modern type. He is persevering, not easily dieoouraged and never gives up. He will find it hard to fit into the life of today but one great opening awaits him. In this great age of endurance contests, he will become the champion of cham- pions. By 1960 he will have become America's champion pole sitter, dancer, nonstop aviator, radio listener, bicycle rider, pretzel eater and mammy singer. He will be the world's un- disputed swimmer, as, once dropped in,he will •wlm back and forth until hie manager remembers to oome and fish him out. FRANK LABREE—the always alert enthusiastic oaptain of the famous Bulldogs from Ekal ka, Montana, will gain fame as the years roll by, as one of the greatest athletes the world has ever seen. He will star in football, basket- ball, and swimming. He will earn the title of •Wlmming Champ by swimming the English Channel. MAX LOEHDING—has a quiet disposition which will oause him to further hie interests along (oontlnued next page) artful linea. When Wilma Boggs haa attained fane as an actress, Max will be efcarting on a oareer of painting. Many of hie palntlnge will beoome world famous because of the delicate ooloring he has affected. HaTe you noticed that lively, peppy student In the class of '45? Tes, sir, you re right. It s none other than FERN MCCAMISH. In 20 years you will see in Bob Hedge's World, the famous lady trapere performer swinging In the air 500 feet above her net and dives down to catch a swing 26 feet from the ground. MADLON PEABODY—one of the most pleasant people to consult me, says the Professor, will not become famous In the world but will fit in- to her place in life with ease. This young lady will work as a telephone operator in the Denver, Colorado, exchange. She will take the cake, when she finally chooses her mate,who will be right from Hollywood and the envy of all women. DAN PETERSON—a most energetic boy Is one of the newest types on this old-fashioned earth. He was really born a hundred years too soon but now that he's here he will make head-lines. He Is of that clear to come that leave their wives to the drudgery of life In order to free them- selves to provide entertainment for the public. He will be the most remarkable tap dancer the world has ever seen. The National Television Network will present him every night for the world to see and he will be No. 1 pin-up boy of his time. ANNA ROZDAL—is now a quiet person but when she has attended Cupid College, a famous school for women, she will enter into her life work as a public speaker. She will attain distinction In all parte of this world as well as Mars and the Moon being well versed on all problems. It will make no difference to her whether she is arguing for or against but one day she will meet her iratch whom she later marries. ELEANORE SCHWEIQERT—a quiet, dark haired, brown-eyed senior promisee a very successful future for herself. Twenty years from now you will find Eleanore achievelng her wealth by be- coming the greatest Interior decorator 1 n Chicago. Later she Is world famous for her decorating and goes to the White House to de- corate. A few years later she will go to Paris. ERVIN SCHWEIOERT—who because of hie ability to mix with others and knowledge he obtained while In service will find his position In the political world. He will work for and obtain and eminent position as ambassador to Slam, one of the most prominent countries of the world. Here he will become the president of that coun- try and promote Its welfare to the interest of all. BOB SENRUD—is a stolid, listless, slow-mov- ing chap who will never display speed or ani- mation, can be trusted implicitly never to hur- ry. He will find the proper position in life early. He will become a plumber's assistant, the one who goes back for the monkey-wrench and can't find it. He will continue In that rest- ful occupation until he dies of old-age. JULIA RAE STRAIN—that distinguished piano- let of today will become a famous vocalist, al- so, in year6 to come, but with a very different position. This person of reknown will gain recognition in France, as the chief hog-caller for King Portguae. She will be at height of her fame when in 1987 her booming voice will carry acrose 30 miles of woodland calling in the pork needed for the grand Golden Jubilee in honor of the king. ERMA LEA TAYLOR—la one of those people who doesn't especially care to work but when it is necessary she is very Industrious about it. She is destined to beoome a oook for a well-to-do family in Baltimore. One day while cleaning fresh oysters she will suddenly come upon a large pearl. It is real and government officials report that it is the largest pearl in the world. Erma Lea will immediately become rich and she will buy a very fine house to live in. Very seldom you will find her home because she will make her hobby seeing the world be- cause she is not compelled to work for a living any more. LORRAINE THOMPSON—a nervous, inquisitive type, will be a reporter and because of an in- tense interest in everybody's business and a cast-iron nerve which enables her to penetrate where she is not wanted, without embarrassment, she will be an excellent one. In ten years time she will be a natural celebrity known as Princess Pry of the Miles City Star. She will be so alert that she will interview a criminal while he is commltlng the crime and get tomor- row' e news last week. SARAH WALTER—is a quiet type, domestic and capable, but with slight inferiority complex, due to the unfortunate fact that onoe she re- ceived only second prize in an international bread-baking contest. Ten years from now, she will be the happy wife of a prominent business- man with the nicest home with the best meals in town. She will undoubtedly grow fat as the re- sult of eating her own cooking, but she will always be a cheerful and model housekeeper. Her husband will probably become bored and e- lope with the cashier in a tea shop, but I can- not be sure. ALBERTA YATES—belongs to a great body of people who have a superiority complex. Evi- dently someone when she was very young praised her excessly for something she did and she has never recovered. Her delight and skill In getting others to work while she watohes and her ability to answer all questions sometimes correctly, to say nothing of the snappy and forceful manner in which she orders other people around, point to but one calling—that of the school teacher. Fifty years from now, gray haired, perhaps, and a trifle wrinkled but young at heart and still going strong she will be found in Carter High School bossing not only her own pupils but everyone. Now that your anxieties as to your futures are all at rest, it Is only fair to tell you that I learned this morning that Professor Ab- dullah Freudson-Brllllng is not a psyohiatrist at all, but an escaped lunatic from the state asylum.

Floyd Bailey President Leland Q-undlach Vice President i ( I Billy Oooper Secretary J U M J OK The class of 1946 entered Carter county high school in 1942 with an enrollment of forty-eight freshmen. The class sponsored by Mies Dickson elected Rodney Emswller president, Thomas Hurst vice-president, and sec- retary-treasurer was Letltla Black- ford. The freshmen were Initiated on September 11. In return the freshmen gave a kid party In honor of the sophomores. Thomas Hurst, Lyle Hahm, and Bob Pulse made the Carter high sohool basketball team that year. Honor roll students were Dean Al- bert, Phyllis Douglas, Edith Flet- o h e r, Veronloa Kreltel, Marcellne SJoblom, and Celia Owen. The year 1943 came with the ab- sence of several o f last year's students. Robert Pulse Joined the Navy; Letltla Blaokford and Irene Catron went to Belle Fourche to school; Joy Peabody, Royal Mcknight, Edith Fletcher, and Roberta Taggart didn't return. The year began with the initiation Dean Albert Treasurer R. Anderson R. Emswller D. Chamberlain D. Oray E. Olooksln P. Douglas B. Elmore R. Emerson E. Ludwlck of the freshmen. Blondle and Dagwood, Mickey Mouse, Humpty Dompty, and Hitler were among the famous people present. The sophomore physical ed. boys won the in- tsr-olass basketball tournament and half of the boys on the football teaa were sophomores. Dean Albert, Rodney Emswiler, Lyle Haha, and Thonas Hurst made the basketball squad; which won the Miles City aBa tournament and won sec- ond place at Poplar in the divisional tourna- ment . Honor studente of the year were Dean Albert, Patty Bpeelmon, Phyllis Douglas, Marceline SJoblom, Billy Cooper, Veronica Kreitel, and Celia Owen. Celia Owen was president of the class, Lyle Hahm was vioe-presldent, and Mabel Pyles held the office of secretary-treasurer. Marceline SJoblom, Celia Owen, and Leland Gundlaoh won honors this year from the National Poetry Association. Candidate for Homecoming Queen was Celia Owen. The Juniors of 1944-45 started the year by electing as class president Floyd Bailey, who is from Mlllbank, South Dakota; Leland Gundlach was eleoted rlce-president; Dean Albert, trea- surer; and Billy Cooper, secretary. Algy Dillon, G. Cline, Roy Richards, Joe Shuffield, and Mabel Pyles didn't return. Lyle Hahm Joined the Navy, and Thomas Hurst is going to school in Chicago. Junior boys, Rodney Emewller, Dean Albert, Clyde Welch, Ralph Lee, Billy Cooper Leland Gundlach, and Albert Penn came out for football this year; and Juniors on the basketball team included Dean Albert, Billy Cooper, Rodney Em- ewiler, and Ralph Lee. Class meetings were held once a week with stamp sales and business discussed afterwards. Since the treasury was low on funds, a Stunt Night was Inaugurated on November 10 with various classes from the grade and high schools putting on some act. Betty Meyer was eleoted as the candidate for Homecoming Queen. The Junior prom was held on April 13. B. Meyer JL, ' p R. Stleg A. Ward C. Welch 0. Woolhlser H. Tates Y c r i 0?H0jV)0[ pc In September 1944, fort y-s 1 x sophomores registered In the Carter county high echool. Nearly all of the frosh of 43-44 returned and one new Member enrolled, Eleanor Rilley. Eleanor la from near Rill Iron, Montana and attended the Custer county high school during her first year. The first class meeting of tue year was conducted under the super- vision of the sponsor, Mrs. Tarlln on September 13. Eugene Schultx was elected president, E 1 d e n Strand, ▼Ice-president, and Doris Taylor secretary and treasurer. The sophs Initiated the frosh on September 15 by requiring the boys to dress as girls and the girls as boys. To make It more comical they all had to wear their clothes backwards. The boys wore green hair ribbons and the girls wore green ties, thus, in- dicating the fact that they were green freshmen. In the afternoon they were taken by the sophomores on parade down Main Street and back past the grade school. Pushing and pulling each other in baby carriages, made a very funny sight. ... . June Beach was ohoeen sophomore candidate ror Hoaeooalng Queen of 1944. She was one of the favorites and for sobs time It a though she would be Queen but at the final oounts It was found that she oame In eeoond. At the regular annual Barn Danes many of the Sophs turned out dressed In the worst, com- peting for the prise offered for the beet costume. Bernice Strait was oo-wlnner of the first prise, with freshman Lylene Hubbard. Bernice wore a large, baggy pair of bib over- alls with a handkerchief protruding from hip pocket, and old pair of run over cowboy boots, and a very dllapedated Stetson hat that was polished with grease. Bernice recleved f.50 for her half of the prise. As a skit for Stunt Night, November 10, ■Wildcat Willie- was presented by the olaes, under the direction of Mrs. Tavlln. Stars in the play were Dick Rolfson as Willie; Marcle Lee Nlme, his sister; Lillian Bearrow, lone Meade, Don Pulse, Elden Strand, and Eugene Schults played the part of friends of the family. In sports the sophomores really rate. Seven of the seventeen football boys belong to the class They were: Skeeter Hedges, Harold Stuart, Tommy Waterland, Elden Strand, Don Pulse, Bobby Cooper, Billie Tiedemann, and Bernard Nles. u . , Bobby Cooper, Elden Strand, Tommy Waterland, Don Pulse, Donald Boggs, Eugene Sohultz, and Skeeter Hedges all play basketball. These make a total of seven of the fifteen basketball players of the high school. On both the football and basketball teams Dlok Rolfson was the manager. This Is a res- ponsible position involving the care of the equipment. Dick must always be at practloe and must be at the games or everything is In a mess. The sophomores were the first olaes to dis- play the Minute Man Flag which represents 904 or more participation in ttae weekly defense bonds and stamp . sales of B. Tiedemann 7“ V' Lee Castleberry President f jUSj-J iVJ£jN Loyd Townsend Vice President Coleman Meyer Secretary-Treasurer On September 4, 1944 42 freshmen entered Carter County high school to start their high school career. Of the 42 original we had 39 left at the end of the school term. Our class met September 12 to organize. The following officers were chosen: Lee Castle- berry, president; Loyd Townsend, vice-presi- dent, and Coleman Meyer, secretary treasurer. Mr. Callaghan was our sponser. On September IB the sophomores initiated ue. The girls were dressed In boys' clothes and the boys wore dresses. All the clothing was put on backwards. We paraded down main street with wagone and baby buggies. Then we returned to the school and cleaned the weeds off the foot- ball field. The freshmen gave their return party September 29. There was dancing and a lunch was served. For our queen candidate w e freshmen selected Delorie Water- land. We sold a lot of tickets, but the senior candidate won. The freshmen took part in stunt night by presenting In the Nick of Time. We also took part In put- ting on the carnival. Loyd Townsend and Lee Castle- berry played basketball and foot- ball. A large part of the freshmen took ohorue. At least 90 of them bought War Saving stamps every month. P R. Babb Tk. Beoktel A. Brantley F. Brance 0. Clonkaln P. Dillon B. Gundlach B. Oundlach 8.

So, all things considered we think the freshmen class has a good record for the year 1944-5. We hope to do as well or better in the coming years and to make the class of 48 one of the best. v OuA) ( (rfjsr Oft, 0. Schwelgert V. Schweigert D. Shuffield R. Shuffleld L. Sterna H. Stewart E.

The players haring had three weeks of tough and tumble to toughen them for the year came out on the floor with high spirits. Ismay1s team as well as other opponents looked good for so early in the season but they had played two games already before meeting Carter, but this was her first opponent. Ismay was rlctorious with 48-18 In Carter's first game but it showed Carter that she still needed practice. The lineup for the Bulldogs was; Rodney Eaewller and Frank LaBree, forwards, Dean Al- bert and Lee Castleberry guards, Elden Strand, center; Bill Cooper, Skeeter Hedges, and Tommy Waterland, guards, and Bobble Cooper and Loyd Townsend, reserves. Eight players of last year's team failed to return this season. Two graduated, four went to the armed services, one transferred, and one Just failed to come back. The loss of these eight put Carter down near the bottom in selecting her squad for the year. The starting five of the Ekaiaka players averaged 5' 91 in height wi h Elden Strand being the tallest 5' llj and Rodney Emawller the shortest 5' 6 . The Bulldogs In basketball as they did in football improved as the season drew to a close but were not at the bottom with the scores as were other teams. At the beginning they showed poor Judgment on their shots and altogether they played a poor game but as time progressed they improved immensely and were really in there playing ball in every game in the last few conference battles. Tf they had had this playing ability at the beginning of the season they should have made a very good showing and did make fourth in the District No.4 Tournament at Miles City. The games were as follows: Ekalaka 18---------------—Circle 48 Ekalaka 18-----------------Bainvllle 30 Ekalaka 14-----------------Plevna 37 Ekalaka 26-----------------State School 40 Ekalaka 17-----------------Baker 24 Ekalaka 23-----------------Ismay 36 Ekalaka 25———————————Baker 23 Ekalaka 19-—--------------—Wibaux 45 Ekalaka 25-----------------Plevna 14 Ekalaka 21---------------—Ismay 16 Ekalaka 21-----------------Plevna 19 Ekalaka 33———————Jordan 23 Ekalaka 44-----------------Sacred Heart 50 Ekalaka 27-----------------State School 28 Ekalaka 35-----------------Sacred Heart 53 Ekalaka 47------ —---------Cohagan 14 Ekalaka 48---------------— Broadue 36 Ekalaka 29-----------------Jordan 32 Ekalaka 28-----------------Baker 17 Ekalaka 35-----------------Sacred Heart 46 The last five games are tournament scores.

The group con- sisted of four freshmen, nine sophomores, seven Juniors, and two seniors. The main five of last year were lost to the services, other schools and graduation. Johnny MoCumsey, Bob Townsend and Lyle Hahm Joined the Navy, Tommy Hurst transferred to Chicago and Charles Guyer graduated from Carter. This put a great gap In the lineup for '44 but there was a large group to pick from at that. Three regular players who received letters last year came back, Clyde Welch, Dean Albert and Leland Gundlach. With three weeks of training behind them the Bulldogs came out looking as fine as could any other team but Carter soon knew that she would really have to struggle when she met the first opposing team. The Bulldogs found out that they were up against some real fighters. In the first game of the season the Carter Bulldogs met the Miles City Beavers on Septem- ber 23 and lost the game with 32-19. Miles was behind until the last quarter but In a final effort came back to make three touchdowns In the last three minutes of play. The Miles Team averaged 40 pounds more than Carter's men with the average of 190 to Carter's 150. There was a misfortune during the game for Chuck Travers broke his leg in the last minute of the game. In the second trial of the year for the Bulldogs the team lost again with a 27-0 defeat by the Circle Wildcats. At the kick off the Wildcats Bleied the ball and In a mad rush for the’ goal made a touchdown in the first minute of the game. Carter tried with all her might to stop the charging advance of the Wildcats but in every play the Circle team would smash through the Bulldog line and go again for a nice fat score. The last quarter snowea tnat the Ekalaka team was at a loss to the opposing side and the score showed a vlotory for the Circle Wildcats 27-0. Clyde Welch suffered a painful mishap when he had the misfortune of having hi a left elbow thrown out of place when he was tackled by two of the Circle team. Bernard Nlee substituted for him. The third play of the season piled still a- nother defeat atop the Carter losses. The Wib- aux Longhorns gave the Bulldogs a worse score than any other team In the games of the past. Although the game was not very exciting the Wibaux team gained steadily on the Carter play- ers. Ekalaka was unable to score during the entire game and web led to the defeat of 50-0. The Wibaux team had not been defeated since '41 and still held the title of the Northeastern Division Champions after the game. When the time for Homecoming came to Carter high the Bulldogs had a very poor showing for their 1944 football season but despite this Carter had shown signs of steady Improvement. They showed better playing ability each game. The team had lost all the other games but one thing which they themselves still owned was the reknowned determination and the will to win. November 4 was the day set for the Homecoming game and the weather man seemed to want to call off the game. The field was the muddiest mess possible and there was a good stiff wind coming from the southeast. Tommy Waterland caught the Baker kick off and made yardage toward our goal. The teams played near the spot where Waterland was tackled during the rest of the quarter. The second quarter warmed up the players and early in the second Loyd Townsend in a quick dash made the distance to the one yard line to line up a touchdown In the next play. Strand soon after caught a pass and made a conversion. This put the score at 7-0 in favor of Ekalaka. Mingle of Baker in the sec- ond half scored a touchdown and Bickle made an extra point. This tied the teams with 7-7. At the finish the teams played off and when the whistle blew Carter was in the opponent's terr- itory giving them two points. The score then totaled 9-7 making a victory for the Bulldogs. In spite of the cold and mud Ekalaka gave her football season a good ending if not a good beginning. The boys who played the required time in football during the season to earn their foot- ball letters were Frank LaBree, Tommy Water- 1 a n d, Dean Albert, Leland Gundlach, Eldon Strand, Rod Emswller, Ralph Lee, Bob Cooper, and Loyd Townsend. The players who practiced and played with the team all year but not the required time to receive letters but who earned lota of credit were Lee Castleberry, Bob Hedges, Skeeter Hedges, Bill Cooper, Floyd Bailey, Don Pulse, Bill Tiedemann, Albert Penn, and Harold Stuart. Clyde Welch and Bernard Nles were injured earlier in the year but were also awarded let- ters. Dick Rolfson received a Manager's letter. In the group of football players this year were only two seniors. Bob Hedges and Frank LaBree, so there is a promise of a good team next year. Carterettes were organized in 1940. Twenty- five girls, from all four classes, coT.prised the Carterettes of 1944-45. Due to shortages this year the Pep Club did not sell pop, coca cola or candy R9 they had in previous years. The girls wore white sweat shirts with a picture of a bulldog and the name Bulldogs on the front and Carterettes on the back. The Cheer Leaders wore blue satin skirts lined with white satin, and white satin blouses. The cooperation and assistance of the Car- terettes made it possible for the basketball boys to be served a lunch after each home game. Pep assemblies have not been as frequent as in past years, but the games have been well attended by members of the Carterettes, and has awakened the spirits of the basketball boys and other students of Carter high. Julia Rae Strain was elected president of the Carterettes this year. Phyllis Asbury, vice-president, Minnie Jean Brady, secretary, and Fern McCamieh treasurer.

As usual wise Mr. Duck was there and finally had to give In to Royal Sandy who rung his neck. Mrs. Clarence Richards won the door prize of a lovely green blanket. Time and fun was spent playing bingo, dice, darts, spinning the wheel of fortune and trying your luck. Two plays Waiting for the Pup Town Train , sponsored by Miss Dickson, and Who Gets the Car Tonight? , sponsored by Mrs. Hunt provided many a laugh.

HOMECOMING Queen Alberta I was crowned by Queen Arlene I, who reigned during the year before, on No- vember 4, 1944 at 11:00 p.m. In the high school gym. Maide-In-waiting, Betty Meyer, June Beach, Delorle Vaterland, and Queen Alberta were attired in white taffeta and net gowne of floor-length. Each girl wore a corsage of red roeee and tuberoses tied with red ribbon. Her Highness' train and cape were of royal blue velveteen edged In white ermine. White pearls beset with blue stones made up the dainty con- tours of the crown. Immediately following the crowning, forty- eight students performed Intricate march form- ations for Her Majesty before the recessional.
