ADMINISTRATION William C. Rowley has been principal of the Carter County High School since 1933. From 1925-1933 he was superintendent of the Ekalaka Public School. In addition to his administration and super- visory duties Mr. Rowley has taught several classes each year. lie has taught all com- mercial subjects, mathematics, and some social studies. The last few years he has been teaching three classes of mathematics. Carter County High School Board of Education meets once every month to discuss the problems of the school. Problems ot students and teachers are aired and solved and, in general, every means is used to keep the school running efficiently. The new Carter County high school was finished during the summer of 1938, and the first classes entered the following fall. The building was a great improvement over the old one with more classroom and laboratory space, better heating and lighting, improved sanitary facilities, and a large gymnasium. A well-stocked library, a music room, science laboratories, stage, and a comfortable study hall are also listed as improvements. Soon after transferring to the new building, physical education, geology, shorthand, and band were added to the curriculum to give the school a variety of courses from which the students could choose. The administration is now considering the addition of the Smith-Hughes Vocational Agriculture course and home econom- ics to the list. If these are added the students will be benefited by one of the best courses of study offered in the state.

John Storey, David Mrnak. Journalism became a part of the curriculum in Carter County High School in 1933 and students who have possessed writing ability and an interest in the field were admit- ted to the class. The journal!: m department has a record of which it can be very pro d. “The Broadcaster,” the bi-weekly mimeographed paper, has held for the last five jears All-State rating and superior ratings from the Quill and Scroll Society. It holds member- ship with two societies for hiih school newspapers: The Montana Interscholastic Society and The Quill and Scroll Society. This year’s staff has endeavored to keep up the tradition of the la-t few years with hopes of again winning All-State honors. Seven members of the staff were initiated into the Quill Scroll on Tuesday. April 5. Students honored were: Clarence Rowley, editor; Phyllis Townsend, news editor; Hazel Summers, stylus artist; Mar- lene Figg. circulation manager; Fern Oxford, reporter; Jill Cooper, typist, and Bruce Teigen, advertising man- ager. Head of this year’s “Broadcaster” was editor- in-chief Clarence Rowley, who took over tlie- task of writing editorials and editing copy. Clarence had the final say on everything that went into the paper. Capable Phyllis Townsend, news editor, as- signed articles and was responsible for the makeup of the paper. Phyllis also wrote her own copy. lvave Gross had the job of sports editor. His interest in his work helped him to do a good job on all his stories. Fern Oxford, whose name appeared on the masthead as reporter, did all her work with equal zest and could he depended on to write a story whenever necessary. Her stories filled many column inches in the paper. To business manager Dave Mrnak went the job of handling the money affairs. He did a good job of keeping finances straightened out, and also wrote his quota of stories. Bruce Teigen, who solicited and made up all ads for “The Broadcaster” and annual, proved himself capable by keeping his ads eye-catching and lively. The deft, skillful fingers of Hazel Summers, stylus artist, have helped turn out some work that we can well be proud of. Jill Cooper, typist, and Donna King ley, as- sistant typist, were the gals with the nini' le fingers who turned out neat, cleancut stencils, regardless of the circumstances or time limit. John Storey, who had one of the most thank- less jobs, was mimeograph operator. However, his cheerful manner brightened the atmosphere and kept everybody’s spirits up. I I I'll I' avimg m ner capacity as circu- lation Manager, was responsible for conducting the successful subscription campaigns for both the “Broadcaster” and the annual. She also had the task of distributing all “Broadcasters” and was author of much of the creative writing that went into the paper. Last, hut not least, was Miss Carolyn Elkin, adviser, who supervised affairs and watched the deadline. Her familiar, “You people, w’eve got to get to work if we want to get the paper out on time, kept things moving and, consequently, kept us all on the job.
