It was About the first of September in the yeer of nineteen hundred And forty-four when Mr. William C. Howley unlocked the front door of CCHS to begin a new school term, and woe to him, there stood 42 green, pop-eyed open- mouthed freshmen, their sweet little feces all clean and shiny waiting to expand their eager minds with the weight of The Books of Know- ledge in the next four years. Coach Shirley Callaghan took over the ted- ious Job of claes sponsor for the blundering mob with hie foremen as follows: Lee Cas- tleberry, president; Loyd Townsend, vice president; and Coleman Meyer, secretary- treasurer. After many embarrassing attempt to find the right classrooms, open their lockers and try to act as if they knew a little about living IT came. Initiation.' The class wae told to drees up, and drese up they didj much to the amusement of the upper classmen. The boy wore girls' costumes, backward , and make-uo enough to scare away the wicked- est gobblin. The girls wore boys' overall ’ and shirts, backward . Claes officer chosen to guide the somber member away from alechiaf were Presiden . Boyne Gundlach, Vice President Marlie LaBree, and Secretary-Treasurer Betty Lee Summers. Mr . Viola Sandy and Mr. Thomas Cunningham were co-eponsors for the claet. Mr . Sandy remained with them throughout their senior term, also. The Junior play Profeeeor, How Could Tout was a howling eucceee enjoyed by a large crowd of faculty, parent and friend . Then came the Junior Prom, another success attributed to hard work on the part of the committee and their sponsor. Mr . Sandy. For the first time the class elected a king»Billy Tiedeman, and a queen, Beatrice Ilmore, froa the senior clae . They were crowned in a gala, colorful ceremony by the elate presi- dent, Boyne Gundlach. Faster and faeter went the day until at the close of summer vacation of 47 our heraee had attained their go all collectively they were known as The Senior Claet.

That man it richeet whoe pleasures Are the cheapest—Journal VERB WELCH, Ikalaka, Montana That night the sophonorps held a get-ac- quainted party to sort of smooth things oven Two weeks later the froeh were hosts nt a party in return. For the Homecoming event in the fall of '44 Delorls Vaterland wa chosen to repre- sent the class in the royal affair. And so another year rolled by. Kew events some of which were new even to fresh- men came and went. Football and basketball called in the more athletically expert of the class to help trounce the way to victoiy. However, the class weren't full-fledged freehmen until late in the spring when one lovely sunshiny afternoon they were told to sling some buckets containing H O o'er their arms and a sack of whitewash o'er their shoulders and Journey up a certain hill to paint a certain C under the sophs' direc- tion. Now they had seen everything..or «° they thought. Finally the class of '48 cams to a turning point in their lives. They were sophomore . Heads crammed with more knowledge than thej could ever uee—also quite a bit of conceit— the queer looking group sought out another poor befuddled looking bunch to show off their superiority to. The class of '49 were the victims, and were they initiated.' Class officere this year were John T eigen who is now attending school in Belle Fourche, S. Dak., as president; Abbie Kenredy, whom Sacred Heart In Miles City claims, vice pres- ident; and Loyd Townsend, secretary-treasures Marlie LaBree wae chosen Homecoming prinoe» and gave the seniors something to worry about in the race for queen. Seven of this class dropped out And four entered. Of these, Wil- lard Padden and Joy Peabody remain. Finally the much envied position as upper classmen is reached for the now grownup stu- dent s who began their high school career three years ago. This year went fast, too. There were new subjects and new activities. For two year Marlie LaBree and Beverly Gundlach served as cheerleaders. Homecoming saw the Junior can- didate receiving £he crown as the first Queen Shirley Gundlach to reign over Carter Hlgh'e football festivity. The first claet meeting of the yeer was held without too much confusion and annoyance and the following left the room bearing the title of officers: Joy Peabody, president; Coleman Meyer, vice president; and Lee Cas- tleberry, eecretary-treasurer. The next important event of the year was the nomination of Homeooming candidate, Wanda Vaterland, who was crowned queen on the night of the traditional event. Three senior girls were chosen as cheer- leaders with one freshman. They were Bonnie Vaterland, Virginia Schveigert and Beverly Gundlach, who was beginning her third year on the squad. The cheerleaders took the district trophy at the Miles City tournament in Febru- ary. Loyd Townsend won first place in the free throw contest at the same time. Western outfits garnered the costume prise at the Senior Bara dance November 22 for Calamity Jill Cooper and Hayseed Coleman Meyer. ■April Showers Bring 'January Thaw' an- nounced a BROADCASTER headline publicising the senior class play elated April 17. A cast of thirteen had a hilarious time on stage, and the audience was given a lift by the humorous situations and funny lineB got off by the characters. The claes of '48 wae honored at a formal dance in Carter's gym by the Junior members in the form of a Prom on April 23. The in- genious decroations in senior class color — emerald and gold—and traditional touches made it an outstanding evening for the senior guesta. And then there was Sneak Day... Last on the scroll of the class history comes Graduation, the climax of it all. Soon 32 diplomas will be presented to 32 seniors, and the class of 1948 will merge with the increasing number of alumni instead of being fun-loving seniors In Carter County High School.
