Our class Officers were Lyall Crary, President; Margaret Kelly, Vice President; Colleen Reardon Secretary- Treasurer; and Joan Rowley and Neal Bandow, Class Representatives. Mr. Finley was our class advisor. Sponsored By Dale Implement 12 TVitt a td 07e fante tt We the Senior Class of 1952 do here-by announce our last will and testament. ARTICLE I Being of sound mind and body we leave our brains and our ability to skip school to the oncoming Seniors. To the rest of the student body we leave the teachers, books, desks and our ability tb get A's. To the 1953 Annual Staff we leave our ambition to work together and to the other organ- izations we know you will miss us. ARTICLE II To the teachers we leave our appreciation and thanks for all they have done for us these past four years and their patience for trying to get us through. To Mr. Brown we leave our gratefulness for understanding how easy it is to scatter papers on the floor and not pick them up. ARTICLE IV Last of all but not least we leave our separate and most precious belongings. Howard Arensmeyer leaves his height to Roy Gebhart. Neal Bandow leaves his basketball shoes to Frankie Olson and knows they will be filled. Bob Clark leaves his sense of humor to Kenny Depner. Lyle Crary wills a fraction of his brain to Bill Mauseth and hopes he will feed it well. Gay De Rusha wills her dignified laugh to anyone who wants it and she hopes they will keep it in good condition. Claudia Engdahl wills her fights with Neal at Pennys to anyone who thinks they can win, just once. Virginia Ferguson leaves her tallness to Jane Sessions. Edwin Gebhart leaves his nick-name to Eddie Cherry. Frank George leaves his brother Shirl the responsibilities of getting into trouble. Joann Green wills her ability to collect a diamond ring when she is a senior to Morrine Franklin. Morrine get busy! Stan Gunther will his ability with women to Wally Thompson and Leonard Blixrud.

Jean Raymond wills her conduct to anyone who wants it! Colleen Reardon wills her ability to wear short hair to Pauline Wiseman. Jean Rowley wills her quiet, friendly ways to Iola Johnson. Ilene Sessions wills her ability to go steady to Bev. Castle and she hopes Bev. can hold on to her man. Dick Swortzel leaves his shyness to whoever can use it.

Geraldine Zier leaves Hank to all the Junior Girls. Barbara Zgoda wills all kinds of milk to anyone who likes he stuff, but not the milkman. o-£ the s£ '52 It’s reunion time again in Choteau. This year it is Choteau High’s 1952 class getting to- gether to talk over times ten years ago. Tonight they are having a dinner at the Methodist church given by the Women’s Society. It is in honor of the pastor's wife, the former Claudia Engdahl. Senator Robert Clark just came home from conference in Washington. It seems Montana is having trouble with its reservation lands. Mr. EdwinGebhart's farming seems to be getting out of hand up there. Miss Coleen Reardon has been in Paris for a couple of years studying art. She is going back soon to hold an art exhibit. Ilene Sessions Jensen is living at Bynum where her husband Hal farms. Geraldine Zier Smith and her triplets are visiting her parents for a number of days and then returning to Kansas where Geraldine and Hank own a wheat farm. Frank George just returned from the coast where he has been salting Boston beans and selling them as salted peanuts. Choteau is quite peaceful since Stanley Gunther became chief of Police. He has trouble though whenever the Mayor of Pendroy comes to town. Mayor Chester Thomas is consistently going 30 miles per hour instead of 25. Miss Marlene Hart is a stenographer in Great Falls. She and La Vern still haven’t de- cided on a date for the wedding. Joan Knowlton Stillman is managing the sheep ranch while Hugh is pulling strings to get out of the Air Force. Howard Arensmeyer has to come all the way from Kentucky for the reunion where he is managing a tobacco plantation and living up to his name Smoky.” Jean Raymond, who has been head nurse at the Teton Memorial Hospital for the last few years has finally decided to take a rest. Bill Van Setten hassucceded his father and is custodian at the Grade School. During the summer he works on his ranch haying. Joan Rowley Nordhagen now has her man and there little boys just like him. She spends her time telling them about Baseball players. Dr. Lyall Cary is taking time from his profession and hobby to be with us at the reunion. His is designing cars then naming them after himself. At the present he is driving his Beautiful Lyallmobile. Eleanor Nelson's true blue loyalty paid off. She is married, living in Dutton and very, very happy. Virginia Ferguson has to come from the coast where she went ten years ago to join Harry. They have two little girls who say they are going to drive trucks when they grow up just like their daddy does. We all are happy to have our celebrity George Higgins with us. George has been touring Europe lately, showing them what a beautiful tenor voice he has. He has-a theme song that he wrote entitled It all Started with the F.F.A. JoAnn Green seems to have made good use of these last ten years. She has become a professional horsewoman. She is the top lady rider in the Gene Autry horse shows. Lee Phillips is still found at the place where he was most during high school, the Choteau Club. Only now he is partner with Gay Marie DeRusha in the ownership. Barbara Zgoda has followed a pattern much like George Higgins. She has given a great number of concerts and her old classmates are very proud of her. Her future plans include marriage to Donny Anderson. Gerald Torgerson has been roaming the earth as he always wanted to. Just like old days he has thrilled the women every where he went. His father has finally put his foot down and iscalling him home to take over the farm. We find Margaret Kelly is married to Donny Arensmeyer and is raising a family. All of the children are just as cute as she. Dick Swortzel is in England attending Oxford University. In his spare time he goes into conference with other scientests and explore the possibilities of flying to the moon. Miss Barbara McFarren is a Major in the Womans Air Force. She is also a professional lady pilot. Neal Bandow just came back from Alaska where he is a guide for big game expeditions. By the way he can still resist, pardon the expression, girls. Pals?

ZIER On September 4, 1951, thirty-six stupid but eager Freshmen, seeking further knowledge, entered the Choteau High School. The first two weeks of school, when the Sophomores get revenge for what was done to them the preceeding year, the Freshmen had to be on their toes keeping close lookout for Sophomores. The second week of initiation the Freshmen wore four yards of green ribbon, bowed to the Sophomores, carried their books, and entered the back door of the Choteau High School. The last day of initiation the girls wore men's pajamas and the boys wore nightgowns inside out and backwards. Wanneata McLaughlin and Michael Anderson received a stick of gum for being the best dressed at initiation. It wasn't as bad as they anticipated but all they got out of it was sore faces.

The football season ended with twenty players making letters and Bob Clark being nominated captain of the team. In spite of the bad season, the Bulldogs showed good sportsmanship and a lot of fight during the season. We are looking forward to next year and by all indications the fifty-two football team is expected to be a strong team with sixteen returning lettermen. SPONSORED BY BARTON MOTOR SALES 48 B.
