— FRESHMEN Virginia Courtney was chosen as the freshman candidate in the race for Homecoming queen and was the first freshman ever to wear the coveted crown. One day in spring the Sopho- mores went up the hill to give the “C” a face-lifting. We all had fun although there was a bit of grouching to go along with the painting. Although the class has only one letter-man, Francis Strait, a num- ber of the Freshman boys went out for basketball, football, and baseball. The Freshman class has kept step with the other classes by participating in glee club (boy’s and girl’s), band. Science Incorp- orated, and Pep Club.

Initiation day dawned and there came straggling up I he steps ol Carter High a strangely clan group of freshmen boys and girls. They presented a dual per- sonality being dressed as half boy and half girl. That evening willi the distinction of being newly initiated Freshmen we attended the dance which the Sophomores gave in our honor. riwo weeks later we returned the courtesy and gave a Freshman return dance. With Mrs. Viola Sandy as our sponsor, the following officers were elected at our first class meeting of the year: Eddie Sikor- skv, president; Dennis Bowmer, vice-president; and Gary Roberts, secreta ry-treasu rer.

Rowley After a short two weeks’ practice the Carter Bulldogs started out their basketball season with a win over Ismay by a score of 49 to 15. Carter then tossed in another easy win when they played the Plevna five to take the game by a score of 46-23. The Bulldogs’ next game was played with the Terry Terriers which gave them another victory by a 10-point margin. The return game with the Terry team found the Bulldogs winning by a smaller 3-point gain. The Carter homecoming game held with the Baker Spartans on December 10 gave both teams a rough work-out in the hard-fought gam • which gave the Carter five a narrow edge with a one-point victory. The Bulldogs met the Spartans four more times during the season. At the Baker Invitational Tournament, Baker capturtd an easy lead over the Carter team and held them down with a score of 48 to 25 as the final whistle blew. The Carter boys came back a few weeks later to again reign victorious over Baker in another one-point win. Ekalaka played its sec- ond game at the Miles City Tournament with the Spartans and edged Baker out of the Cham- pionship game which was played with the Jordan team. After being forced out of this win Ekalaka again met with Baker to determine second and third place in the district tourney. Baker won this game by the large margin of 64 to 23. Ekalaka won victories over the Wibaux team twice during the season, and the Miles City B team found themselves losers in a non-conference game played with Ekalaka. The Sacred Heart Shamrocks also found themselves over-trodden by Ekalaka when the Bulldogs came out on top by the score of 51 to 32. Ekalaka won the conference trophy for having the best percentage of all the teams in this district and held third place in the District 4 Tournament at Miles City.
