Senior Class History 1945- 1946 Like all green frosh , we entered C. H. S. with the fear of initiation being uppermost in our minds; but vowing with all our hearts that we would get even by initiating the next class good and proper . We chose Carl Unruh as our class President, John Hamilton, Vice-President, Betty Butcher, Secretary-Treasurer, and Larry Jacobsen and Donna Sivertsen to represent us in the Student Council. Margaret Noble was chosen as our Freshmen sponsor. 1946- 1947 Ah! Sweet Revenge! As sophomores we really gave the Freshmen a royal welcome into high school in the form of an initiation, which incidentally, was the last real initiation in C. H. S. Our class officers were: Dale Butcher, President, Leonard Ehlang, Vice-President, and Joyce Holman as Secretary-Treasurer. Richard Leonard and Marion Rusch represented us in Student Council. Mr. MacDonald was our sponsor. 1947- 1948 We could hardly believe that at long last we were finally upperclassmen . During this school year we accomplished many things—such as presenting the Junior Play— The Campbells Are Coming . The Junior Prom (theme— April Showers ) was also a great success. This year we chose Burton Bosch as President of our class, Tom O'Hanlon as Vice-President, and Joan Harbolt as Secretary-Treasurer. Richard Leonard and Betty Butcher were our representatives in Student Council. Mr. Denny was our sponsor. 1948- 1949 In 1948 we entered C. H. S. as high and mighty seniors , graduation was in sight. Our biggest accomplishment this year was presentation of the Senior Play. The Editor of this Annual was Burton Bosch. President of our class was Richard Leonard, Vice-President and President of the Pep Club, Tom O'Hanlon. Joyce Holman was Secretary-Treasurer and Stanley Wixom and Donna Mann represented us in the Student Council. Mr. Bowen was chosen as sponsor of our class. Senior Class Will Friends, this is a solemn occasion. The class of 1949, having passed on to its reward, has left behind this last will and testament. I, as the legal adviser of the class, drew up this document and it is cast-iron, unbreakable, and very very legal. You are assembled here that this will may be read. Listen, to what you are about to receive! We, the class of 1949, in the town of Chinook, county of Blaine, and the state of Montana, being of brilliant mind, though a bit fuzzy about the edges, do hereby make this our last will and testament. We hope that you too, will appreciate what we are leaving you and that you will never forget our kindness and what a wonderful class we have been. TO THE JUNIORS—our rightful heirs, so soon to take our place—not that they can fill it—we leave them our reputation, grade A and spotless, our dignity, and our air of importance. We also leave them any debts we may have left unpaid, such as accounts at the Cozy or fines for broken windows. We bequeath to the Junior Girls our hopes that they may be able to hold firmly to the Junior Boys and steer them firmly next year through the gates of Commencement, that they may not share our humiliation for not being able to hold our men folks —as the women of the world would put it.
