CLASS MOTTO: ”WHAT WE ARE TO BE; WE ARE BECOMING CLASS FLOWER: ORCHID COLORS: BLUE SILVER In September of 1956, the class of 1960 had a total of fifteen members. Those being Rdee Armstrong, Gail Corrigan, Lloyd Crosby, Larry Dugas, Myrie Gollaher, Bill Kopetski, Danny Mann, Karen Nelson, Sandy Nicholls. Eric Ortloff, Sharon Payne, Margaret Romberg, Paulette Standley, Joe Von Stein, and John Warehime. Our class advisor was Miss Eleanor Schmidt. The class officers were Rdee--President; Myrie--Vice President; Margaret -- Secretary; Lloyd--Treasurer. Our Sophomore year the class had twenty-three members. New faces seen were Charles Batson, Pat Burns, Alan Dugas, Ben Flanagan, Karen Fowers, Clarence Jones, Norma Maxwell, Warren Nicholls, and Nola Russell. Eric Ort- loff was missing from the group. During the year Charles Batson, Gail Corrigan, Alan Dugas, Ben Flanagan, and Clarence Jones left. The Sophomore year was enjoyed by all and especially the good times at school functions. In the spring we put on the three-act comedy, Her Kissin' Cousin. We also were in charge of the annual Ketochi Day and picnic. Mr. Dorrance was our class advisor that year and the class officers were Karen F.--President; John --Vice President; Sandy--Secretary; and Lloyd--Treasurer. The Junior year saw the class busier than ever. There was the ordering of class rings, putting on the Junior Play-- Headin' for a Weddin', and the Junior Prom When You Wish Upon A Star. Those missing from the group of Jolly Juniors were Pat Burns, Norma Maxwell, Warren Nicholls, Sharon Payne, and Nola Russell. New faces seen were Ardith Barnes, Glenda Hamilton, and Fay Hetherton. Gail Corrigan joined the group again. Class officers were Myrie--President; Sandy--Vice President; Paulette--Secretary; and Joe--Treasurer. The class advisor for this year was Mr. Cornelius. Senior year at last. Here we were mighty seniors, boy did we rate. But to some of us it gave a funny kind of feeling. We found the Senior year to be even busier than the Junior year. No new members were added to the class but we lost Ardith Barnes and Margaret Romberg. Mr. Cornelius was still sticking with us and every morning in homeroom it was; Would you please be quiet for thirty seconds so I can take roll call. In our Senior year we had to worry about senior portraits, graduation announcements, caps and gowns, class night, sneak trip, annual, and last but not least graduating! The class officers were Bill--President; Danny--Vice President; Gail--Secretary; and Lloyd--Treasurer. The memorial events of 1959-60 were the Christmas Ball--”Sleighride, working on the annual, soliciting ads, class night, sneak trip, and baccalaureate and commencement. This brings us up to the present and shows that the class of '60 which began with fifteen members and ended with fifteen members has been successful in most of its endeavors. At this time in our annual we wish to thank everyone who helped to make our years at CHS the most enjoyable and happy years we've had. Thank you very much! THE CLASS OF '60 15

 Cascade, Montana May 24, 1985. The Class of 1960 is meeting for its class reunion at the ol' Cascade High gymnasium. Plans had been made from the time of graduation, but it seemed that we couldn't get together until the year 1985. Nevertheless it was decided to have the reunion now whether or not all could attend. The first to arrive at the gym was the ever-ready Dan Mann. Believe it or not, Dan owns a dude ranch in California. From what everyone has heard he is quite a cowboy now. Since the class of '60 always did everything in style, Karen Nelson didn't have to wait tables. Karen told us she is working in Nevada (Reno no less) as a cigarette girl and waitress. She said she’d seen quite a bit of Glenda Hamilton down there. Glenda never could stand one guy too long. Glenda was unable to attend the reunion, as she was getting a divorce for the eighth time. Joe Von Stein has finally filled out and is no longer so thin but is built like Atlas. Upon graduation from CHS Joe became the number one prospect for Mr. America and finally won the title in 1970. Joe entertained the group with some weight-lifting tricks. Rdee Armstrong also entertained us with her recent role in ’’Romeo and Juliet. Rdee finally became a good actress, but she'd had several years practice before entering the profession. Fay Hetherton and Gail Corrigan (Cloninger) came together on Fay’s latest invention Flying Carpets. Fay has done quite well for herself and so has Gail. Gail had left Jim home with their five little boys. John Warehime and Larry Dugas arrived together as they had just been shipped home from the South seas. They are both making the Navy their career. Karen Fowers was unable to be present for the reunion. She's still trying to be the first woman to reach the moon. Myrle Gollaher drove up in his new 1985 Oldsmobile and said he couldn't stay long because it seems his wife over in Simms was not in good health. We guessed she must have worried too much about him. Sandy Nichoils had just flown in from Washington, D.C. where she is the president's private secretary. Bill Kopetski accompanied her because believe it or not Bill is the 40th president of the United States. Paulette Standley arrived late because it seems that after 25 years of chasing the same guy she never did catch him, but knowing Paulette she'll be trying for another 25 years. Paulette is the first and second grade teacher at Cascade. Everyone could'nt help but think something was missing when who should they see stumbling up the steps but Mr. Cornelius. He still has his red hair with a few more gray hairs in it and his fine sense of humor. The always late Lloyd Crosby came last but as always he had a good excuse. His old car had quit on him before he made it up the hill to the gym. Everything was complete now and the afternoon was spent with talk about the good ol’ days. 14
