We enjoyed ourselves at the hop they gave us two weeksJp Sj later. We elected Mary 0� Connor, president; Fred Spei- ser vice-president; and Bertha Lavell, secretary-treasurer.

We Instructed the Freshmen to paint the C . We served them a picnic lunch in exchange for their labors. Freddie Speiser trans- ferred to Lodge Grass and Dean Ludwick went to Washington at the end of that year. LaVerne Stoltenberg left school to marry but Dorene Blodgett and Carol Phelps joined us to make an even twenty Juniors. We worked hard on our Junior Play, Hillbilly Weddin, and with the help of our sponsor, Mrs. Cork, we believe we made it a big success. Everyone in our class took part In the play.

Our Class the l6th, and—at last— the culmination of our grade until the senior Charles Sykes, and Wilfred Class Prophecy My, ray. It doesn’t seem possible that it is May 21st, I96I4.. That date brings back many memories of good old high school days. Since then the Class of has traveled far. Why only the other day I read an article about BOB LA3A- TER, one of the world’s most famous English teachers, and how he hated English. Another classmate ERNEST TOOKE, has since become the Champion Cowboy in the United States. Ernie always was good at things like that. I read in a recent paper that BERTHA LAVELL played the piano in a concert for some native tribe down in the Congo region. Have you ever heard of Bestest Milk ? That is the product of the famous you chain of dairy farms owned by ELLIS WILLIAMS and HERB McCAMISH. JANICE HARRINGTON, better known to her friends of the ring as Jigger' 18 traveled all over lec- two now wrestling in Madison Square Garden. Last year she turing about and teaching the methods of wrestling. CAROL PHELPS’ race horses have won the Kentucky Derby for the past years. I have heard though that she takes more pride in the palomino horses she raises on a ranch in Montana. Since MARY O’CONNOR’S marriage to a rancher, she has been perfecting ways of getting chickens to lay larger eggs. I’ve heard it told that so far they are about the size of an orange. They say that NANCY COOPER is the first woman to play on the Yankee Base- ball team. Nancy has played in four World Series and has the highest batting average of any player on the team for this year. CHARLES ELMORE, a famous bridge building engineer, has been trying for the last five years to build a bridge span across the Strait of Gibralter. He has- n’t succeeded yet. RICHARD MALMQUI3T, a dedicated bachelor. Is now the president of the BinikI Bathing Suit Co. He has been trying to out rule the two piece French bathing suit. Another traveler from this class is WILFRED STIEG. He has spent many hours in Antarctica trying to teach Penquins to fly. REGINA STUART, since starting to follow the Air Force a few years back, has now started flying jet planes as a hobby. I’m sure that everyone has heard of CHARLES SYKES. He went to Russia sev- eral years ago to unify and to Improve their postal system. His latest trick was to make a two-headed postage stamp so that you could never put it on upside down. GERALDINE WELCH always seemed to be a rather mild girl in school but now she can out talk Bob Hope. Incidentally that’s what she does. I’ve heard it told that Bob is about to turn his television show over to Geraldine. DARLENE ELMORE, world traveler and explorer, recently returned to the Unit- ed States. With her came three shrunken heads as a gift from some tribe in Africa. Darlene went down to teach them how to polka. A couple of years ago as I passed through New York, I was amazed to rina DON KEMP walking down the street with his hands full of window washing equip- ment. He told me that he washed the windows of the U. N. building had made millions doing it. T Someone Just asked what connection I have with the class, I guess to tell you. The name’s SHIRLEY RICHMOND. I’m a guard on the All American Red- headed Girl’s basketball team. Oh, oh, there goes the buzzer. Incldently you can’t qualify for this team if you are under six feet tall. and that he I forgot Halt 1 Class Yes, the senior class has halted once more to attend to an Important Job before going through the last door of high school. We, the class of 19514- have written up our last will and testament. These Important papers will be safely put away in the office safe in the Carter County high school, of Ekalaka, Montana. Mas To Mr. Rowley and the rest of the faculty we mournfully leave our text books. May you remember us when passing them out to next year’s senior class. For a donation we’ll leave our English IV workbooks. At this moment we also express our apprelcatlon for the many hours you have spent with us to help in our long lourney into the world. To the class of ’55 we leave old minnie” (mimeograph | machine) and the little kitty. Take good care of them as they will need it. The class of ’56 are now the proud owners of our intell- igence during class time. This also includes some of our original ideas. The newspaper rack in the study hall is left to the class of ’57« It sure attracted the eyes of this year’s seniors about studying time. As a class together we leave to the in-coming freshmen our well-cleaned lockers. We might add, not to follow our policy of keeping a locker clean. Each one of the seniors have made an individual will to be left to some of the students. NANCY COOPER wills her fast pace” In making it to school on time to Pete Remmen. (Nancy Is noted for leaving home just before the bell time and trying to get to school before it rings.) David Culver is now the sole owner of all of ERNEST TOOK- E’S fun in Plevna. Cherish It well, Dave. DARLENE ELMORE wishes to leave all her good times at the tournament to Gloria Schwede. Darlene states they were good ones too. DON KEMP mournfully parts with his gruff voice. He would like Jesse LaBree to have it. May it keep you out of many difficult situation's Jesse. GERALDINE WELCH leaves her position as picture editor on the annual staff to Mary Kreital. Don't keep back any pic- tures, Mary. To any one who wants It, WILFRED STIEG willfully leaves behind his typing folder. Wif says hard telling what you will find iaJLt. Charles and Jimmy Oxford have been willed REGINA STDRAT’S beloved name Regina”. For a warning boys - this is quite a burden, expecially around new teachers. Out in front of the high school Tom McCamish will find a certain parking place. This is being left by BOB LASATER, whose car was parked there most all year. It’s marked well Tom so you’ll have no trouble finding it. To next year’s Publication Editor of the Broadcaster goes SHIRLEY RICHMOND'S position. ”Who ever you are,” Shirley states, It is not very easy and you need lots of patience.” RICHARD MALMQUIST'S dry sense of humor has Interrupted j many dull moments. He sorrowfully leaves it with Donna | SJoblom. Don’t miss use it Donna. Walter Anderson is the sole possessor of BERTHA LAVELL’S alarm clock. Many times it helped Bertha to come late. Maybe you should set it up a few minutes, Walter. To Vonnie Allan, HERB McCAMISH leaves behind his quiet nature. It has kept him out of lots of trouble and if hand- led right will do the same for you, Vonnie• ISPQN50RED 3TQKE STRATTENlS’g fecy _____________________________________________(EKALAKA ELECTRIC MARY 0 CONNOR 3 passion for short hair cuts i being passed on to Roberta Price. Mary says it is Just as easy to take care of as a pony tail. Take care of this passion Rob- erta Joe Carey should be really happy now. ELLIS WILLIAM’S is going to leave him his car load of girl’s That is moat of them, Joe. The last four years JANICE HARRINGTON has been a cheer- leader. She sorrowfully leaves her cheering ability with Harlana Wash. Harlan can continue practising for a cheer- leader now without being laughed at. CHARLES ELMORE believes now he will shorten his long striedes when walking Ronald Kortum now has possession of them. Think you can handle them Ronald? At last Charles Kemp will be heard, instead of being so quiet. CAROL PHELPS wishes him to have her Gavel GIrty laugh. Never more will there be a dull moment for Charles. CHARLES SYKES leaves his ability of sneeking out of the study hall to Dorothy Turbiville. Charles says to be more careful and perhaps you won’t get caught, Dorothy. To each of the senior’s from the rest in the class we leave our good times we have had together. We wish each of you much success in the future. Mrs. Arlene Roberts participated In the gra- duation exercises. Ar- lene, a former member of our class, married Gary Roberts in her Junior year and completed that term In Billings. She has taken correspondence work for her Senior year, During school in CC HS, Arlene was active in Corterettes, G.A.A., and chorus Juney LouH was her part In the Junior Play. She was crowned Queen Arlene II for the 1952 Homecoming. CLASS FLOWER___ CLASS COLORS___ CLASS MOTTO____ ft SPONSORED BYf BROADCASTER STAFF Back Row: E. Williams, C. Elmore, B. Lasater, H.

Roll call showed that we were missing three former class mates. Rosena Gross, Norine Clem, and Margie Mey- er were absent. During the year we lost Wilma Pulse, who became Mrs. Clarence Herman, Mrs, Cantrell was our class sponsor. Our first task was to elect class officers. They were; Harlen Wash, president; Tom MoCamish, vice-president; and Mary Kreitel, secretary-treasurer. We chose Georgette Townsend as our Homecoming Queen candidate. During the winter we ordered our class rings, and wore them proud- ly upon their arrival. The next task we under took was putting on our class play, Let Me Out Of Here,1 We worked hard to make it a success and presented it on February 2, Mary Kreitel received the honor of attending Girls State, held in Billings, Foggy Wlllimms was chosen alternate, David Culver and Foggy Williams were chosen to attend the Pow Wow, held in Missoula, As spring approached, so did the Junior Prom, The hard work de- corating the gym was fully repaid by the praise we received from those who attended. The happy year as Juniors ended for us on May 21. We look forward to another year of school together as Seniors. Troy Elmore Ethel Kina Betty Jo La Bree ' 3- -fdsnd. (q c U JDAEL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL This three-act comedy is centered around the activities of two young girls, BONNY LYNN(Ethel Kins) and EVE BOYD(Peggy Williams). Both girls work in offices but Eve has made her rich aunt (Georgette Townsendl who is her guardian, think she was attending a girls' college. The aunt had selected GIFFORD MORTON(Loyal Babb), a poet and writer, as a suitor for Eve, but GARRET LYNN(Harlen Wash) is much more attractive to her. Garret and a friend, VICTOR WARD(Tom McCamish), come while the girls are out getting breakfast. Victor, who has come to the city on urgent business for his father(David Culver), tears his pants. From there on there was trouble over who wore the torn trousers. Two colored people, STEVIE(Clyde Brewer) and HAZEL(Gloria Schwede), add to the climax with their crazy antics and superstitions. MRS. RHODES(Mary Kreitel), the landlady, even has to call the police a couple of times. The Juniors performed this play before the public February 2 in the high school auditorium. Mrs. Francis Cantrell, the Junior sponsor, directed the play.

We dressed them as everything from bathing beauties to negroes That evening we honored them with a sox hop and gave a prize for the brightest socks (Donna S. won.) We elected officers as follows: Milton Markuson, president; Joan Pulse, vice-president; Linda Wallesen, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Wallace was our sponsor. We were very proud to present Sherran Brewer as our Homecoming Queen candidate. Although one of our members, Rena Taylor White, got married on October 31� she is still continuing her education at CCHS After supervising the painting of the nCH by the freshmen, our second year in high school was completed.

However, the withdrawal of Danny Oliver and A1 Griffen dropped the enroll- ment to twenty-eight. If at first we felt a little strange, it was not long un- til we became well acquainted with the other students. Espec- ially after Initiation; then we were considered as one of the gang . The sophomores even gave a dance for us, and we re- turned the favor a few weeks later, Mr, Rowley was our sponsor, Sharon Purdum as president, Melvin Shuffield as vice-president, and Sondra Floyd as secretary-treasurer, conducted our meetings. Sondra was also our choice for Homecoming Queen candidate. In the spring we trudged up the steep hill to paint the C . Our only consolation was that we could get even with the freshmen class next year. Our first year of school has been great fun for everyone and we say wGood Luck to the future freshmen classes.
