Text from Pages 1 - 126 of the 1951 volume:

0 1 We, the Coyote Annual Staff of 1951 do sincerely hope that this Annual will hold for you many pleasant memo- ries of days and friends gone by. The Annual has meant a lot of work for us, but the work has been worthwhile, because it represents a monument of the school. We wish to express our deep appreciation to Miss Skil- lingberg and to the Advertisers for making this Annual, possible. DEDICATION A On behalf of the time, effort, work and worry of our Senior advisor, we as the Senior Class would like to give credit where credit is due, for the valuable assistance rendered by Helen Skillingberg. For the past two years, she has de- voted her time and skill to the pur- pose of pounding typing, shorthand and bookkeeping into dozens of block-headed students. She has al- so spent endless hours with the paper staff and numerous other ac- tivities. And so, as a partial repayment for the time and effort Miss Skilling- berg has spent on us, we dedicate th is annual to her. mi iifi nSTTi BW it n; in m ni m to NEW HIGH SCHOOL Skillingberg i upon the com- congratulation to niss and to the Senior Clas pletion of this splend book of memories. As each of you grow older anc grayer, the memories renewed Annual will become even more ured and dear. To the members of the Senior Class, I wish to extend my best wishes for a bright and pleasant future. Keep your sights high and always on your goal. HELEN SKILLINGBERG Homestead, Montana; B. A.

CLASS HISTORY I, Margaret Hader, sit in this study hall, noisy as it may be, trying to think of the days long gone by--yes--I'm writing the history of twenty-seven school boys and girls. I remember the first day in high school. My knees were knocking and my heart was pounding. 1 was thinking, as I looked over three rows of heads to the Senior Class, Which one of those Seniors is going to shoot an arrow at me first?” I had heard they were vicious and to be aware any minute of them striking. Yes, I was scared, we were all scared and green as could be. We didn’t even dare go sharpen our pencils for fear of getting a dirty look or of being tripped and embarrassed in front of the whole assembly. That's just what happened this particular day. I cautiously got up out of my seat, walked to the pencil sharpener and began to sharpen my pencil. My hand was shakey and when I took the pencil out of the sharpener the lead was all zig-zaggy and looked just like the teacher's cold wave permanent. 1 headed for my seat, daring not to look up when out came a foot. It was one of those smart Sophomores, who already knew the ropes and gags. I glanced down and in an instant was on my face full speed ahead. I had said to myself, jump over it, but, no, I missed and tripped. All I could hear was a roar of laughter peeling through the assembly and echoing in the halls. I staggered to my feet and looked about, flushed face and all. I looked at my classmates--each and everyone of them had a pathetic look of sympathy on their faces. Who would be nexy they were thinking. Finally the bell rang and everyone headed for their classes. We all had a turn at this embarrassing moment and soon became accustomed to the bold and brazen ways of upperclassmen. Our hopes and dreams faded into the thought of someday being in their shoes. Thus we began our High School Days and for a while everything went smoothly. Then came another surprise-i-initiation 1 Not that we weren't looking forward to it in a sort of secret and scared way; perhaps dreading it would explain better how we felt. It was held exactly two weeks after school had started and approximately one day after we had conquered our fear of Seniors, they condemmed us to the most outlandish tasks and fates ever heard of. It was on Thursday evening, September 18, 1947, when they read us our fate. It all began at four o’clock on that day when the Senior Class president opened a general assembly by saying, All greenies take out about 25 sheets of paper and a good solid pencil. There it was--we were doomed to gunny sacks, green ribbons, underwear and what have you! Each one of us had a costume described by the Mighty Seniors as appropriate. Three weeks later we recuperated (almost), and we received another shock. After all we had gone through for those Seniors, they wanted US to give THEM a return party! Imagine that! We were supposed to be grateful, I guess! Well we had the party and everyone had fun. The days and months rolled on and we became normal again. Finally Spring came and school was over. Three months' vacation and we'll be Sophomores. What joy, what thrills, we were high and mighty. (We thought, ha!) That year was a cinch, hardly any work to it at all. Not much excitement, but we were looking forward to the Carnival when what do you know, one of our classmates was chosen as candidate for Queen. This year we lost quite a few students, but also gained a few. When school first started on September 8, 1947, there were twenty-one students who were as follows: Clifton Forseth, Ardeth Chambell, Encel Berg, James Marshall, Dale Muncy, Gene Ray, Norman Buffington, Allan Standiford, Margaret Hader, Doris Kolstad, David Haag, Joan Didier, Audrey Zanda, Sally Ward, Robert Cushing, Patricia Maret and James Curfman. At the end of our Freshman year we lost: Encel Berg, Ardeth Chambell, Gene Ray and James Curfman, but we gained three new members at the beginning of our second year--Johnny Grubbs, Jeanne Schriener and Edwin Kaushagen. Thus twenty hearty Sophomores struggled through the year. With Doris Kolstad as our candidate for Carnival Queen, we were pretty proud and everyone of us came through with flying colors. Ran- dall Matkin came in the summer to begin his Junior year here. At the end of this year, we lost Edwin Kaushagen, Patricia Maret, Johnny Grubbs, Jeanne Schriener, Dale Muncy, James Marshall and Clifton Forseth. We gained one new student who would begin school with us in '49. In the fall of 1949 we were back to school again, with so many things to look for- ward to--yes, we were Juniors and so intelligent already. We got our class rings and were proud as could be, then came our play, prom, and Jr. -Sr. Banquet. Our play was Glory To Goldy and a success--so they say. We all disagreed, but really didn’t mean it. It was directed by Marjorie Ryan; our hearts were in it too! School ended in the Spring of '50 and our summer was restless, once back in school, we would be mighty seniors. So on September 8, 1950, we took advantage of the seats next to the window, willed to us by the previous class. We watched the Freshmen cringe and suffer, but we found it wasn’t so bad. Why should they be scared, we were Freshmen once, too! We gained two new students, Jean Ludtke and Connie Humphreys. The time went fast and at the end of the first semester, Sally Ward, chose another path and left fifteen survivals. We were kept buys. Senior Class pictures, announcements, Sneak-Day and our play. It was The Four Of Hearts Mystery, directed by G. G. Lallum. All the fun that is tilled up into one year was well spent. Then came the last, but not the least, Baccalaureate and Commencement. All the knowledge that we have had crammed into our heads by teachers is becoming noticeable for the first time. We are adults and are beginning our lives anew. We are stepping Out of School’s Life, Into Life’s School. ’’ PROPHECY The Oriential Limited came thundering down the track and pulled to a stop at the depot. I sat up with a start, and as I gathered my wits about me, I realized that I had at last reached my destination; Oakridge, Tennessee! I, Joan Didier, was assigned by the United States Government to take over the direction of the Atomic Plant there. One of my old Classmates, Allan Standiford, who was working on a new formula for developing nuclear energy, was to meet me at the station. I got off the train and stood searching the sea of faces before me trying to find the fami- liar one. I finally spotted him and pushed my way through the crowd. After our greeting, we hailed a taxi and started for the Plant. Well, you know how it goes when old classmates get together--right away they start reminiscing about the good d old days. That's just what we did. It seems as if our class had made a evidently thought matrimony was their career. Audrey married a Missourian who owned a fleet of wheat trucks and was really rolling in the money. Connie married a sailor and settled down to make her home in Hawaii. Jeannie Ludtke, our class happy -go-lucky girl, took up nursing and later became a specialist in brain surgery. She was especially adapt in operating on men's brains. They always were more fascinating for Jean. (Men, that is.) Ronnie Hanson, Casenova Kid of 1951, inheirited his father's Electrical Appliance store and became a successful businessman, starting a chain of stores all over the nation. He is still unmarried. Never could settle down to one girl. About this time we reached the Plant. Allan couldn't tell me anymore about the class of '51 as he had lost track. Two of them so I took the weekend off and flew up to New York City. Margie Hader, another of my classmates, was holding one of her shows there. She had married an army officer and during her spare time took up dra- matics and held U.S.O. shows for the soldiers. As I reached her dressing room door, I heard a low murmur of voices. I knocked on the door and walked in. Brother, what a surprise. There was Margie, and, of all people, my favorite little moster, Randall Matkin. I began firing questions right and left. Finally, Randall told me to pipe down and he would try to answer some of my questions. He said he had served in the army for several years and then came to New York as Editor of the New York Herold. He organized a dance band as a sideline and was now working with Margie’s show. He told me that Norman Buffington known as tne Suicide Kid. made a great deal of money in the Hell-Driving business and after re- tiring had bought out Henry Ford and was now making cars like made. His old sidekick, Richard Batzer joined the Merchant Marines and had a girl in every port. Bobbie Cushing, the boy who was always hunting rabbits, went to Alaska and became a fur trapper. He is also known for the books he has written on the subject, his most well- known being, Six Months In The Kondike or How To Become A Hermit In Six Months. The conversation becoming rather one-sided on Randall's and my part, I asked Marge what she knew about our old classmates. It seems Audrey Lee Heimbigner had made a big name for herself in the advertising business. I hadn't heard from her since we had gone to College at Kinman's together and I was glad to hear that she had become a success. Dean Wolfe became a large wheat farmer, whose land covered a large portion of Montana and Wyoming. He finally married his steady girl, (class of '54) and is raising lots of little hired men to cut his wheat. Doris Kolstad went to Concordia College and took up Commercial work. She has just published the Kolstad Shorthand System and has made many other improvements in the commercial field. David Haag, the boy who was always absolutely correct in History class, went to Columbia University and took up Law. He is not a United State Senator. As I flew back to Oakridge, I gave a long sigh of relief. It surely was good to know that the Class of 1951 had really made a good showing. Now maybe I could do my work without a care in the world.

The Coyotes started out their season by winning over Havre Central, Oilmont and Kremlin. Then they lost to Joplin by a small margin. Their next victories were over Gildford and Hingham followed up by two losses, one to the Box Elder squad and the next to the Havre Colts. The boys then ventured to Harlem and beat the Harlem team in a thriller of a game. From there they went to Rudyard and lost by a few points. The next game the Coyotes beat Hingham and then lost to Joplin and Havre. The fast-moving Coyotes walloped Kremlin by a large margin and then lost to Oilmont. The Coyotes then came back to win the last conference games of the sea- son by beating Gildford and Rudyard. In the Hi-Line Tournament the Coyotes had some bad luck by losing to Box Elder and Hingham after having beaten Kremlin. In the District 11 Class C Tournament at Havre the Coyotes took 4th place by losing to Box Elder, beating Rudyard and Hingham and again losing to Box Elder. The Coyotes placed two players on the District 11 All-Star Team. They were Dean Wolfe, a senior, and Donald Raunig, a sophomore. The Coyotes will lose 5 players from the first ten this year.

GLORY TO GOLDY Plot of the play was centered around the confusion of a gang of high schoolers try- ing to make a tar paper swimming pool, Mr. Haberfield wanting to have an executive meeting at his home, while his daughter Beebee planned to announce her engagement to Pysco, Mrs. Haberfield planned to entertain ladies aid all at the same time. Goldy planned to have an auction to raise money for the swimming pool and so she and her friends ransacked the attic and brought all the white elephants into the front room just as the guests were about to arrive. All ended happily as Mrs. Haberfield called off her meeting, the executives had not been notified, Goldy’s junk was cleared from the room and Beebee was free to an- nouce her engagement. The cast is as follows: GOLDY, Audrey Johnston; PYSCO, Randall Matkin; PINTO, Sally Evans, BEEBEE, Audrey Lee Heimbigner; AUNT ANGEVINE, Joan Didier; UNCLE SHELDON, Allan Standiford; MRS.

THE FOUR OF HEART'S MYSTERY After weeks of hard work (?) and practice, the Seniors presented their class play, The Four of Heart's Mystery by William Hurst on April 7. The story takes place in the office of Jake Butcher, a prominent movie producer. He and his publicity man, Lew Bascom, are planning to end the Stuart-Royle feud by placing the two families in a movie together. Blythe Stuart and John Royle beat them to the punch by announcing their plans for marriage. Later they are killed on their honeymoon. Ty Royle and Bonnie Stuart then fall in love and receive threats in the form of cards. Sam Vix does a fast disappearing act and Ellery Queen, with a little aid from Paula Paris, solves the mystery with his usual flair for genius. The cast includes ELLERY QUEEN, Allan Standiford; PAULA PARIS, Margaret Hader; BLYTHE STUART, Joan Didier; JOHN ROYLE, Randall Matkin; TY ROYLE, Ronnie Hanson; BONNIE STUART, Audrey Lee Heimbigner; JIM BUTCHER, Norman Buffington; LEW BASCOM, Richard Batzer; SAM VIX, Dean Wolfe; MADGE, Doris Kolstad; SUSAN, Jeanne Ludtke; GLUCK, David Haag; ALICE CLARK, Audrey Johns- ton; SWAMI-TOLLAND STUART, Robert Cushing; DR. CRANDALL, Connie Humpherys. This successful play was directed by G. G. Lallum. Favorites On September 30 the C. H.S. held their annual Carnival. Among the new booths were the Cake Walk, Roll-A-Skate, Eight Ball and Clock Mist. At twelve o'clock the Carnival Queen, Bonita Kossel, was crowned. The attendants were Constance Humphreys and Joan Didier. The Queen and her attendants were chosen by popular vote of the student body. The one receiving the most number of votes was elected Queen and the identity was not disclosed until the night of the Carnival. The High School and the Grade School both put on performances in the assembly. The Local Boy Scout Troup sponsored the boxing matches again this year. At midnight a dinette set was raffled off to a person with the lucky number on their ticket. The prize for the Clock Mist was a table lamp. The door prize was a Zenith Radio. The gross proceeds for the Carnival was $1,374.39 and the net income was $805.43.
