CLASS HISTORY In THE fall OF 1945, EIGHTEEN GREEN LITTLE FRESHIES ENTERED good old Chester High School to begin four wonderful years of work. The first few days we had an awful time. There were so many ROOMS, AND IT SEEMED LIKE WE WERE ALWAYS WINDING UP IN ONE OF THE SENIOR CLASSES, Our first big event was the ancient custom of initiation. The DRESS FOR THE DAY WAS LONG WHITE UNDERWEAR FOR THE GIRLS AND WOMEN’S CLOTHES FOR THE BOYS. AFTER THAT HUMILIATING DAY WE FELT LIKE WE BELONGED TO C. H. S. In our sophomore year, we found we had one more student— Penny Johnson, who came from North Dakota. Although we gained one MORE STUDENT, WE LOST TWO OTHERS, CARL EVANS AND RITA LAIRD. RITA HAD GONE TO SCHOOL IN GREAT FALLS. We felt our Junior year was more eventful than the two prev- ious years. Our dramatic ability popped up and we presented a com- edy, Boys About Bobbette , which was directed by Mr. fjalstad. An- other EXCITING OCCASION WAS THE RECEIVING OF OUR CLASS RINGS IN February, 1948. Then came the fun—hours and hours of making tulips AND STRINGING STREAMERS FOR THE JUN I 0R-SEN I 0R PROM, WHICH WAS A GREAT SUCCESS, IT WAS REALLY A MOST UNFORGETTABLE YEAR. IN THE FALL OF ’48, WE RETURNED as MIGHTY SENIORS TO CHS, BUT FOUND WE WERE ONLY 15 INSTEAD OF 17 AS TWO MORE MEMBERS, ROBERTA hader and Howard Kolstad had decided to take other trails. Our senior year was packed full of exciting events such as our senior play Mountain house Mystery , which was under the direc- tion of Mr. Kaufman, ordering announcements, senior pictures, sneak DAY, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL-BACCALAUREATE AND GRADUATION. NOW THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY LEAVING, WE FEEL A SORT OF PAIN AND REGRET THAT WE SHALL NOT TREAD THE HALLS OF CHS ANY MORE; BUT LIFT- ING OUR HEADS, WE TURN AND FACE THE FUTURE AND HOPE TO BE SUCCESS- FUL MEN AND WOMEN OF THE WORLD,
