down the hall I met MABTHA LARSON and asked her what she was d6ing here. She said she was a teach- er at the college. She said she taught Boy's Tennis and Boy's P.E. It was getting late so I caught Sherry's bus back to Ekalaka. The next morning I saw a very large limousine drive down the street. When I asked whose it was nobody said a wora. So I walked into the street and flagged the car down, and it was no other than the most famous person to come out of the class, TERRI LF- WIS. She now plays middle linebacker for the Taiwan Tigers. You can see her on TV any Sunday during the football season. Terri informed me she had just seen an old friend of hers that was still in college. DIANE ERICKSON. I guess Diane is still trying to find ways to stay out of sch- ool. I thought I would drop by the old school just before I left for home, I was passing I saw a flash on the track. Could it be...It is-SHELL£Y GROSS still out there trying to break her high school track records. It seems to be she keeps getting slower and slower in her old age. As I took off in my jet, I looked down below me and there was KEVIN REHBEIN still trying to ride a bull. Never could ride them but he sure could outrun them. On my way home I thought I would stop off in Hollywood and catch the late movie. I couldn't believe it when I saw KENT PRUITT KEITH co- staring with Don Rickels in CPC Sharkey. Must have done well in the Marines. As I took off for home I heard a strange voice saying, Take me to Havanna. I turned around and there was GARY STRUB. His hi-jacking career lasted about as long as his movie career in Chico and the Man—about 20 seconds. On my last leg of the journey, I made my last stop at the super dome in New Orleans. The Minnesota Vikings and their Coach Mr. Ron Kaess were playing the Tampa Buccanners for the su- per bowl 55. Can you believe it-the Vikings finally won it, and after 40 years with the Viks', Coach Ron Kaess if finally going to retire. On my return I took one quick flight over my billion oil wells, and after my long flight, I was ready for a long swim in my imported ocean in the mid- dle of the Sahara. PAT QUADE 1977 Class History The class of '77 walked through the high school doors for the first time in 1974 with a total of 26 students. The first thing we did was to elect our class officers. They were as follows: Curt McCamish-president, Darrel Gentry-vice-president, Mauri Heggen-secretary-treasurer, and Sally Guyer and Pat Quade-student council representatives. Our class advisors were Mrs. Veronica Sikor- ski and Mr. John Nutter. Later in the year we lost one member of our class, Joe Baesler. As sophomores, we returned with a total of 28 students with the coming of Kathy Smith, Mark Stieg, and David Rice. Our class officers that year were Pat Quade-president, Darrel Gentry-vice- president, Mauri Heggen-s.ecretary-treasurer, and Martha Larson-student council representative. Our advisors were Mrs. Sikorski and Mr. Don Schillinger. Bill Coleman and Debbie Rupe joined us during the year, but both left later on. After making sure we got the freshman initiated in a proper way, we settled down to making money. When we returned as juniors, we found that we had 29 students. We'd lost Mark Stieg but gained Teri and Tami LaBree. Class officers were Sally Guyer-president, Kevin Rehbein-vice-president, Kelly Penn-secretary, Brad Freese-treasurer, and Kris Rehbein-student council representative. Our class advisors were once again Mrs. Sikorski and Mr. Schillinger. By continuing our money-making projects, we finally had enough money to put on the Junior-Senior Prom. Our theme was Colour My World , and the music was furnished by the Nightwalkers. It was hard work but we did it! And then came the year we'd been waiting for, our senior year, 1977. We'd lost David Rice and during the year Martha Larson went on to college, but we gained Helen Crabtree the second semester. Our senior officers were Greg Justice-president, Gary Strub-vice-president, and Brad Freese-secre- tary. Our loyal class advisors were Mr. Schillinger and Mr. Pat Mauch. We chose the daisy as our class flower, blue and silver as our colors, and Today's dreams are tomorrow's joys as our class motto. With this, wer finished our final year of high school. 20

I, John Speelmon, will my typing ability to Robin Daque. It's easy Robin. I, Gary Strub, will my ability to handle alcohol to Ed Kennedy and Mark Gundlach. I, Jeff Venhaus, will my number 44 jersey to the trophy case. I, Jacob Wagner, will my boxing ability to John Strub. Watch those left hooks. I, Brett White, will my fuzzy head of hair to Shannon Brady. Keep those scissors sharp. 1977 Class Prophecy It is the year 2010. As I sat in my villa in the middle of the Sahara Desert, I thought how nice it would be to visit a few old friends. I loaded up my harem on my 300,000 dollar lear jet and headed off on a trip I will never forget. First, I thought I'd like to visit the old Carter County High School. Who do you think I sav but Don Schillinger walking with his walker yelling at the football players to eat dirt. I strolled on over with my harem right behind my and the coach told me that my old friend CURT MC- CAMISH was just asking about me. I figured maybe they started a pro-basketball team in Ekalaka, but he was out on the ranch sheep farming. I arrived at MCCAMISH'S and there he was on the phone still looking for prospects to start an Ekalaka Basketball Assocation. Next, on my way to look for the next surprise, I ran into DARREL GENTRY driving the Ekalaka to Alzada beer truck and so we sat down and emptied the truck right there on the road. So much for the profit! I drove on to Main Street and there was KATHY SMITH driving her blue Mustang up and down Main Street still wait- ing for Mr. Right. I inquired around and found out that JACOB WAGNER used his brains and experi ence to get where he is today. Where is he? The head of the Ekalaka Mafia. As I was strolling by the fire hall I heard a familiar voice calling, Alamande left to your corner gal, swing your partner round and round. So I went in, and there was DALE HORNER teaching his private square dance lessons to HELEN CRABTREE. Speaking of Helen, she said she was still out at John Kerr's trying to tell which end of the cow to milk. As I left the fire hall I heard a small noise. I turned, and who do you think was sneaking around—SALLY GLJYER. She was still trying to find a way into Dale Horner's private square dance school. I walked on over to the Hardware Store and there was GREG JUSTICE, the new proprietor of the store. He still has pieces left over from putting lawnmowers and bicycles together. I rented a small car and it was almost out of gas, so we slipped on over to the Conoco station. My old buddy BRETT WHITE came running out. He seemed very excited. He said he jest received the Nobel Peace Prize for inventing a car even he couldn't wreck. BUFF BROWN was sitting in the station wasting time. He said he took over his father's painting busi- ness and that he just got done painting the ocean blue. It was now getting close to noon and I was getting a little hungry so I stopped at the Ekalaka Burger King. I sat down and was waited on by KRIS REHBEIN. When I asked her what she was doing still working here, and she said she married the owner. She always did like to do things her own way. As I drove down Main Street, I saw four little boys with the number 44 on their shirt. When I asked them who they were, they said that there mother’s name used to be LUCY NIES. She keeps telling then that they are going to be star football players someday. Lucy is married to the Ekalaka Highway Patrolman. I was starting to get a little thirsty, so I stopped off at the local tavern and there was my old lineman buddy JOHN SPEELMON. After going over a few old football stories, John told me he was headed for the Baker Livestock Market to sell a load of pigs. He said business was pretty heavy. He had to take 12,000 to the market-just a small amount for John. He also told me that BRAD FREESE was doing quite well. He said he was now the owner of the biggest trap line in the state of Montana located a few miles from Ekalaka on the Beaver Flats. John invited me to ride along to Baker with him. Boy, what a smell! John was getting the old Ford cranked up about top speed when over the hill behind us came a flashing light. We pulled over and the Highway Patrolman stepped out. I couldn't believe it! JEFF VENHAUS a Highway Patrolman! Then it came to me, Jeff always did like to give better than receive. We finally made it to the sale yards, and there stood SANDY LOVEC. She informed us that she married her high school sweetheart and they were selling a few bucking horses. John said there was a super cafe with great meals in PlevBB, so we thought we would run over and have a bite to eat eat. We arrived at a place called Terry's Place. Who do you think the owner was? Right—K5LLY PENN. Sure was a great meal. Well, I always did like to eat! John decided he better head home so I took the Hutton Express line out of PlevBa. SHERRY had bought her brother's old Boy Scout bus and started her own busline to Glendive. I decided to take the tour. On the way. Sherry was tell- ing me about all the things that happened over the last few years. She told me about TERI and TAMI LABREE, who became Mormons. She also told me that they lived out on Ash Creek with their many hus- bands. As we pulled into Glendive, I noticed a rodeo going on at the fairgrounds so I stopped to investigate. I got there just in time to see the goat roping. And who was the first competitor, the best goat roper in the state of Montana, MAURI HEGGEN. Well, that's what she told me. I went to Dawson College to visit a fe« of my old college buddies that were still there. As I was walking 19
