CLASS COLORS Rose and White History CLASS FLOWER Rose CLASS MOTTO Today we follow, tomorrow we lead. On September 6, 1955 thirty bright and eager Freshmen started the long journey toward graduation. The class officers and members were as follows: Judy Hastings, President; Marjie Barrett, Vice President; Rick Steele, Secretary; Pat Romberg, Treasurer; Clar- ence Jones, Janice Muruoe, Jay and Joy Warren, Janice Standley, Jack Collins, Sandy Warehime, Alan Dugas, Liz Hunting, David Johnson, JoAnn Obrecht, Glenn Dugard, David Sand, Bill Beecher, Rayanne Nelson, Bernie Walker, Dick Winchell, Barbara Brewer, Stanley Peck, Mary Jones, Grover Brown, Marilyn Parsons, Gregor Venetz, Marian Lee, Rodney Standley, and Marilyn Young. The '‘kind Sophomores treated us to a very memorable initiation. The good old C was given a fresh coat of white-wash. The football field and streets received a very thorough cleaning and last, but not least, the initiation and dance that evening finished the memorable day. To show that there were no hard feelings, the Greenies treated the Sophomores to a dance the following week. Rodney Standley left this happy group in the middle of the year. The Sophomore year calendar was filled with election of class officers with the fol- lowing results: Marjie Barrett, President; Judy Hastings, Vice President; Liz Hunting, Secretary; Rick Steele, Treasurer; and Bill Beecher, Parliamentarian. The Freshmen were initiated in high style. A Sophomore play entitled YOU CANT KISS CAROLINE” was staged. The year was brought to a close with a very successful Ketochi Day.” That fall found Dick Winchell and Marilyn Young missing, however, Ben Flanagan and Jim Gillispie joined. Charlene Buckingham came shortly after school started. Alan Dugas, Ben Flanagan, Clarence Jones, Grover Brown, and Rayanne Nelson left during the year. The Junior year opened with Jim Gillespie gone. Gaylen Freeman, Dick Humphrey, and Ronny Maxwell entered. Election was held with the following people taking over: Charlene Buckingham, Presi- dent; Bill Beecher, Vice President; Pat Romberg, Secretary; Judy Hastings, Treasurer; and David Johnson, Parliamentarian. The Junior Class play MEN ARE LIKE STREETCARS was a big hit. The Prom April Love” will never be forgotten. Mighty Seniors at last. Officers for this year were Gaylen Freeman, President; Marilyn Parsons, Vice President; Sandy Warehime, Secretary; Charlene Buckingham, Treasurer; and Bill Beecher, Parliamentarian. Ads were solicited for the annual and work started almost at once. The Christmas Ball Silver Bells” will be a treasured memory. The hurry, scurry, of spring found announcements, caps and gowns, being ordered, diploma covers chosen, and Sneak Day thoroughly discussed. Gary Tjaden, Susan Schumacher and Vivian Clegg joined making a grand total of 30. This concludes the long climb of the class of '59. May all the classes to follow enjoy C. H. S. as much as this class has.

 Class Prophecy Cascade, Montana May 31, 1979 Dear Mr. Gessner, We are sorry you were unable to come to our class reunion at the C.H.S. Gym the 29 of May. The first to arrive was Janice Standley, who as you know is teaching High School English at C.H.S. I guess she likes it, after 14 years she must. Ronnie Maxwell arrived in his new jet propelled Jaguar. He inherited a uranium field in Colorado from an uncle. Charlene Buckingham and Judy Hastings arrived in Judy’s plane. I don't know how they managed to get those 27 kids in it. Judy didn't say, but I know all those kids weren’t Charlene’s, a couple must have been Judy’s. Liz Hunting arrived all dressed in mink and jewels. She finally caught a mil- lionaire. Marian Lee must have had good luck also. She was wearing a lot of ice,” too. Hermit Stanley Peck arrived late. Poor guy was still snowed in up in the hills. Dick Humphrey (with big black hat) and Rick Steele (without Kay?) are cow- punching for the King Ranch in Texas. Bernie Walker was not there. I guess he was still out seeing the world. Last I heard, he was on his way to the moon. Sandy Warehime is still riding in that red convertible. Kids in the back window, kids in the front window, and kids in the trunk. Barb Brewer is still trying to be a good wife along with trying to keep track of brother Bill. David Johnson and Marjie Barrett arrived in David's new Pontiac. You won't believe this, but after 20 years, they are still just going steady. Glenn Dugard is still trying to become a second Charlie Russell. Maybe in the next sixty years he will succeed. Bill Beecher is still trying to make a million dollars. He only has half a million now. Pat Romberg got her nursing degree, but didn’t do much with it. She fell in love with a million dollar quarter horse ranch in Texas and married the owner. Jack Collins is now the proud owner of a real swanky Night Club. Gary Tjaden is the star entertainer with a tap dancing act. Mary Jones runs the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas and believe it or not, drives a bright red Cadillac. Gregor Venetz, the world’s greatest chemist, is still trying to solve the mystery. Is the Moon Really Made of Green Cheese? Janice Munroe is now a stand-in for Marilyn Monroe--plans to take over per- manently soon. Jo Ann Obrecht is still giving speeches. Her latest being to the people on Mars, explaining why we don’t have three legs. Marilyn Parsons and Susan Schumacher finally made it to New York. They are now two of our most potential comediennes. Butch Sand is still driving his Studebaker, it’s got windows in it now. Jay Warren is employed by Hollywood to plan the interior decorations for the homes of the movie stars. Joy Warren is now living in Alaska. She sure looks cute in that parka. Gaylen Freeman now owns his own Exterminating Shop. His motto is, You gottem--We’ll gettem. Yours truly, The Class of 59 18
