D Jt n -ri ing on the work of Dr. Albert Einstein. We talk- ed with him for quite awhile but we couldn’t un- derstand him very well because he used such big, scientific words. Noticing a large high school we decided to go in and look around. We were most amazed to find DAVID CULVER, as the professor. He said he enjoys his work but at times finds it quite a headache. We left David and drove to Reno, Nevada. Here we saw BILLIE DILLON. She was in charge of a divorce court. She said her job was getting too tiresome, hearing all the sob-stories, and that she and her husband planned on moving back to Ekalaka. We were viewing Reno’s lovely sights when a familiar voice turned our attention to someone standing on a street corner. As we drew near, we recognized the person at once. It was MARY KREITEL, Campaigning to become the first woman President of the United States. (Incidentally, she was running on the Democratic ticket.) With our Journey nearly finished, and only one classmate to see, we told Mary and Billie good-bye and went to Idaho Falls, Idaho. ALLEN ELMORE was here. He was a race car driver. He said this is very dangerous work, but also lots of fun. Satisfied with seeing our old classmates again, we returned home for another ten years of work with our blattlng 3heep and croaking toads. We hope our friends will come to see us some day. £ • . TROY LOYAL BILLIE BETTY L. FRANK

Class Prophecy 1Pod M V Tired of our occupations, we, GEOROETTA TOWNSEND and BETTY JO LA FREE, decided to leave our sheep ranch and toad farm behind and seek our classmates of the class of 1955. Our Cadillac filled with pas, we left the good old state of Montana and headed for Denver, Colorado. The first of our classmates that we saw was TROY ELMORE. He was a taxi driver and he took us on a tour through the city. We enjoyed it very much and after the tour we continued on our way to Kansas City, Kansas. Here we were quite fortunate in finding LOYAL and GLORIA BABB. They were doing the mam- bo in the fanciest night club in the city. Glo- ria was formerly known as GLORIA SCHWEDE. We also found ETHEL KINS in the same club selling Pall Malls. After an enjoyable visit with them we decided to attend a prize fight. The fight was between HARLEN WASH, alias Pod , and Killer Diller. Harlen won the fight and became the featherweight champion of the world. We spent the night in a near-by hotel and were amazed to find MARLYN TIENSVOLD, the owner of the hotel. He was sitting in the office pro- udly counting his riches. He was delighted to see us so he gave us the swankiest room in the place, free of charge. The next morning we left Kansas and went to Chicago, Illinois. We decided we’d do a little shopping and to our surprise we found PEGGY WIL- LIAMS, modeling wedding gowns. She said the business was very profitable and her slim, sch- ool-girl figure had not changed a bit. We had dinner at a lovely restaurant, CLYDE BREWER was the main chef. After he fixed us a wonderful dinner, we thanked him and continued our journey to Little Rock, Arkansas. We saw a little drive-in restaurant, and decided to eat there. The girl who waited on us was BETTY JO SCHALLENBERGER. She said she had been working here for several years and liked it very much. She also told us that PATSY STIEG was a nurse in Tulsa, Okalhoma, so that was our next stop. Pat- sy said she likes her Job and plans to make nur- sing her life-long career. Our next stop was the great state of Texas. TOM McCAMISH, is famous all over the Lone Star State, as the owner of the largest herd of sheep in the 1 8. We stayed at Tom's ranch for a few days, but the weather was so hot we nearly suff- ooated so we left him and went to Salt Lake City, Utah, here we found FRANK SILVIS. He is carry- Bettj J fVan. ir C lyde.

Class History September 3 1951 marked the entry into C.C.H.S. of the class of '55 thirty-three strong. We elected Georgette Townsend, president; Tom McCamish, vice-president; Betty Jo La Bree, secretary; and Doris Burch, trea- surer. Wilma Pul9e was our homecoming candidate and Mr. Mlekush acted as class sponsor. Initiation and the painting of the C gave the sophomores opportunities to torment us freshmen, but we all enjoyed these attentions. The following year found only 25 of us to register as sophomor- es. Missing were the familiar faces of Doris Burch, Virginia Aaberg, Rose Adams, Brice Barrere, Larry Gariott , Max Kingsley, Jackie Simp- son, Olive Ann Workentine. Roberta Price, an old classmate, returned from Miles City. Class officers elected for that year were Mary Kreitel, president; David Culver, vice-president; Peggy Williams, secretary; and Tom McCamish, treasurer. Betty Jo La Bree was our homecoming can- didate and Mr. Mlekush was again the class sponsor. That year It was our turn to supervise the freshmen initiation and the painting ,of the C . We assisted the freshmen in these activities, much in the same manner as we were assisted the year before. The beginning of our junior year found still a smaller number of us, only 21. We had Powell during the year, and Rosena Meyers failed to register as started, Wilma Pulse left to be year were Harlen Wash, president; Mary Kreitel, secretary-treasurer, coming candidate and Mrs. Can- junior year was an important one essful class play was, Let Me Junior-Senior Prom with Moon- lost Naomi Parsons and Marvin Gross, Norine Clem and Margie upperclassmen.

Roberta Price left early in the year, but Billie returned as Mrs. Paul Dillon to take Roberta s place. Mr. Rowley was our class sponsor. We were very proud to have our can- didate, Peggy Williams, elected Homecoming Queen. Our senior class play was The Thursday Murders. Our next project was the beginning — of the annual which kept us busy until the end of the year. As the year came to a close we were busy with Sneak Day, May 8 and 9 when, took a two-day trip to the Black Hills. Class Night was - on the 17th of May. Baccalaureate was May l5th and Com- mencement came on May 21. With this happy event came the close of four years of close relationship between the members of the class of »55. Our School
