Co-Operation of Business Men and Townspeople Is Appreciated The class of ’28 wishes to take this opportun- ity to thank the business men and the town's people for their excellent cooperation along the line of advertisements. Without their assistance the “Owlet” could not have been a success finan- cially. “AND HOME CAME TED” The Senior play “And Home Came Ted” was very successfully given December 17th, 1927. The part of the young Irish hotel clerk, Skeet Kelley, was very well played by Stuart Whet- stone. i Thelma Anderson played the part of the heir- ess in a very clever manner. The spinster, Lois Strong, brought consider- able humor into otherwise dry scenes. John Stahl took the part of the mysterious character Mr. Man. His real purpose at the Inn was not revealed until the close of the last act. Ira Stone, the villain, tried all methods to win out, but he did not do so because of the efforts of those who opposed him. This part was taken by Stanley Strohl. Ruth Baird played the part of Aunt Jubilee, the cook. She was the most humorous charact- er in the play. Forrest Kindle took the part of the lawyer, Jim Ryker, in a very commendable manner. Anna Mace acted the part of Mollie Macklin. She searched for Ted, and did not give up until he was found. Alice Johnston took the part of Henrietta Dar- by. the widow from Honolulu. The part of Ted, the grcom, was taken by Fran- cis Jones. Elsie, the bride, was Jean McLean. She played the part very well. Senator McCorkle, Elsie's father, was well played by Lewis Warde. — -------------------------——------------ FIFTEENTH ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT CUT BANK HIGH SCHOOL Baccalaureate Address High School Auditorium SUNDAY EVENING, MAY 20th 1928 Eight O’clock Hymn—Twilight Reveries .........Buntley (High School Chorus) Scripture Reading........

Davis Printed by the Cut Bank Pioneer Press Passing of the Class of ’28 The class of '28 are about to pass into a realm of ever broadening knowledge. We have learned all that is possible in our four brief years of High School life. We have learned lesson upon lesson, some to forget and some that we shall never forget. We have been a serious class, realizing our duties and never hesitating to accomplish what at times seemed the impossible. Of course we were ignorant of many things when we first ventured to occupy the Freshman row. We were very self-centered, proud of our- selves and just a little afraid that somebody was going to make fun of us. Instead of expecting friends we expected enemies and consequently were not very well liked by our upper classmen. We were one as a body then, but later as the years rolled by and we took up other rows in the As- sembly, we did not cooperate as well. It took us until we were Seniors to learn the great import- ance which cooperation plays in all our lives. Our class has won many laurels. We have tak- en three blue ribbons at the District Contest, and most of our members have high averages in schol- arship. We have given two plays which will always be remembered, and whatever we undertook we did well. And now as the time drawrs near when we must leave we hesitate to depart; but we realize that we have covered the first distance and we must now take a bigger and farther step toward that goal that shines before us. IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A GOAL IN LIFE It is very important that one must have a goal in life. A goal is something to look forward to. If one has something to look forward to there will be a much greater chance for success. Every- time one would get disgusted and decide to quit a vision of that much cherished goal'Twould come into his mind. It would aid perseverance and spur the individual on. A student ,upon entering high school should have an idea of what his or her life work shall be. This is very necessary so that the subjects maybe taken which will aid in the preparation for this work. If one has no goal in life he will wander aimlessly through the four years of high school with no other objective than to merely “go to school ’ If there is no goal the subjects will be chosen by the amount of work needed to prepare them and not from the standpoint of value. If the goal is not formed soon enough there will be no foundation for college training. The real foundation of later life is laid during the four years of training in the high school. The goal should be a worthy one and placed high. It should be high because, although one may not reach it, he will reach a higher level than if th 3 goal were low. A worthy goal is one that is honorable. It should not be one for love of money, only, but one that will be of most service to others as well as the individual. r � ♦ I ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ � ! ! ♦ ♦ I I i Class Poem lTp rugged paths and steep wo’ve climbed To reach the mountain smiling. Nor turned aside for pleasure’s call, So honeyed and beguiling. Kach heart was bound by purpose deep. Like bands of steel entwining. To reach the prize on heights above, A prize in radiance shining. The heights are reached toward whieh we toiled In dark and sunny weather Then must we part forgetting all The days thus passed together? O’ say not so, as in the past Class spirit we kept burning, Let now a purpose quite as strong Mark every year's returning. A purpose deep and well-defined Within each heart’s recesses To help the world along, nor pause For pleasure’s false caresses. To freely give the world our best. To this our word is plighted. In this, as in all other things We stand, a class united. ■4 Page 4____ Class History On the eventful morn of Sept. 7, 1924, the Royal Army of ’28 gathered its forces and attack- ed the Forts of Learning. Twenty-nine willing Out meek students enlisted in the regiment to fight for an education. These twenty-nine were: Margaret Anderson, Thelma Anderson, Ruth Baird, William Britton, John Connolly, Archie Corrigeux, Myrtle Dahlen, Lavem Dunbar, Ar- mand Freed, Harold Heiland, Eugene Hull, Alice Johnston, Robert Johnston, Frames Jores, Kather- ine Kemmer, Forrest Kindle, Anna Mace, Verna Mallo, Jean McLean, Tessie Micken, Earl Peter- son Clyde Parker, Edith Potter, John Stahl, Stan- ley Strohl, Lillian Swensgard, Bernetta Teeple, Lewis Warde and Stuart Whetstone. The already experienced soldiers thought it their privilege and supreme right to initiate the Royal Army of '28. This they proceeded to do at the first possible moment. Our president, Eugene Hull, one of the smallest of the class was robed in infant attire and soothed to sleep with a bottle of milk. The rest of the regiment of ’28 were treated as the upper classmen saw fit. The pun- ishment was by all means .severe, but we surviv- ed the treatment. After the initiation, the upper classmen admitted us as full fledged high school members and gave a party in our honor. In due time we returned the party with the proper school spirit. We took part in all social and athletic activ- ities. In the inter-class debate, we wen from the Sophmores but lost to the Seniors. By the end oi the year we had conquered Ancient History, English and Algebra, three of the hardest sub- jects This gave us hope that we could make the rest. At roll call the second year we found that we had lost eight members: John Connolly, Eugene Hull, Archie Corrigeux, Lavern Dunbar, Edith Potter, Lillian Swensgard, Margaret Anderson and Earl Petersen. This loss was partly made up by the addition of five new recruits: Felix Bonnet, Sam Dunbar, Anna Meade, Lois Strong and Ray Minnette. Before starting the real battles of the day, we exercised our privilege of initiating the recruits of '29, passing on all of the severeness of our in- itiation plus a large number of new and novel i- dcas cf our own. We took a more forward part in the social activities and were well represented in athletic, declamatory contests, and the like. At the end of the second year we were grieved to learn that we were to lose our beloved superintend- ent, General Peterson, who had guided us so suc- cessfully through the first two years of our bat- tle for education. At the beginning of the third year, when the bugle was sounded, we found ourselves with a new general. This was General Morgan, who was des- tined to guide us successfully through the remain- ing two years of our battle for an education. Those of our members who did not show up for roll call for the third year were: Felix Bonnet, William Britton, John Connolly, Myrtle Dahlen, Sam Dunbar, Anna Meade, Bernetta Teeple, Ar- mond Freed and Verna Mallo. To make up for the loss we added but one new recruit, Wilma Miller. We proceeded in high spirits, taking the leading part in all activities, being well represented in everything cf any importance. We gave a play “Safety First which was a big success. The pro- ceeds from this were used in giving one of the most successful Junior Proms and Banquets ev- er held in the history of the Cut Bank HighSchool. We began our last year in high spirits. We had lost only four the previous year. They were: Wilma Miller, Clyde Parker, Ray Minnette, and Katherine Kemmer. This time we added one new recruit, Robert Young. Again we took the leading part in all of the social activities and were well represented in all of the high school ac- tivities. Robert Johnston quit us shortly after we had begun the last great battle. We gave a play entitled “And Home Came Ted. The suc- cess of this play was only equaled by the one which we had given the previous year. The Jun- ior class of '29 gave us a Prom and Banquet which was enjoyed and appreciated by the Royal Seniors of 1928. Summing up our history briefly we find that during the four years we lost twenty-two mem- bers and added seven. This means that of the or- iginal twenty-nine that started out, twelve are here tonight, and of the seven new recruits we have but two left, leaving in all, fourteen mem- bers of the Royal Army of '28 to receive the re- ward of their hard earned victories. F. E. K. and L. E. W.—'28 --------Pa§e 5. ieh Class Will We the Senior Class of Cut Bank High School do make and subscribe this our Last Will and Testament. The following things we leave to be done as our last wish— Item—To the faculty we leave the responsibil- ity of providing as learned a class within the next fifty years as are graduating in this year of 1928. If this part of our last will is not attended to all provision for their future happiness automatical- ly becomes null and void. Item—Also, to our dear faculty we leave our best wishes, to be sold, rented leased or kept, as they see fit. Item—To Mr. Davis the class leaves all surplus money (which amounts to one, one half cent stamp) this money is to be put in a trust fund for a period of ten years after which it is to be spent by the benefactor solely for his personal pleasure. Item—To Mr. Morgan the class leaves the power of giving all of our Senior privileges to future last year classmen in any manner that he sees right, fit and just. To Miss Faun the Seniors will all old and poor- ly written themes, which they have entrusted to her care, that they might receive a grade, the only provision being that she will not point them out to the future generations aa exemplifying our past work. Also we will many long winter eve- nings in the future to her that she may have an abundance of time to put little red checks on fu- ture attempts at composition. We v;sh her God Speed in her work. To Mr. Pooley we will all the typing paper with only one side used that he may use it in his work in the future. We all give all our speed records to him that he may boast of this class in the fu- ture. To Miss Malicke, the Seniors leave all the beans that were left over from their lunch. They also leave her the duty of coaching all future Senior plays. To Miss Turck, the Seniors leave one ream of perfectly good paper that she may have plenty of paper upon which to inscribe the names whom love of whispering have blest. To all future classes, the Seniors leave desk number 5 (to be duly counted, designated and located, from the rear for the sole purpose of keeping and holding all copies of current maga- zines. The only limiting provision for this is that “Western Story” and “Ace High” shall be kept in chronlogical order and filed because there are many very valuable continued stories in these worthy periodicals. Also we recommend that the faculty should be kept unaware concerning the use and misuse of this desk. FURTHER as Individuals of this Class we give and bequeath the following property: Item—Lewis Warde wills to Margaret Dewing the right to trap all skunks, gophers, and the like on the hill inside the corporate limits. He also wills to her one new 1913 catalogue of furs that she may know the current prices and thus not be beaten in any deals. Item—Thelma Anderson wills to William Brit- ton her friendly manners with teachers and a self- composed theme called “How' to Make the Grade and Be a Good Student.” Item—Ruth Baird wills to Bill Ilill her speed with a typewriter, and her manner of capturing ‘Ikies! (In your case ‘Beckys’) She wills to anyone who cares to try to make use of it her ability to say anything at any time to Mr. Pooley, either in or out of school. Item—Alice Johnston leaves to Irene McLean her slender figure and also a table of foods, cal- ories and vitamines which she says she consults whenever she feels the urge to lose weight. John Stahl leaves to Norman Vasboe his quiet way which so captures teachers. He leaves his ability in Physics to anyone who is foolish enough to think they have ‘it.” (that ablity.) Robert Young leaves his harsh voice and one of his auburn locks to Thomas Jones, to be kept as a memoriam. He leaves his place in the double male quartet to any boy who has a singing voice, w'ho has enough self-control to remain the full year in the music class. Francis Jones leaves his ability to draw maps and his good grades to anyone who must take Geography. Any other than these need not try to obtain them is his warning. Also he wills to Minnie Brose his ability to run, and keep running any kind of tractor. Stanley Strohl leaves to James Benish his a- bility as an athlete, and especially as a basket ball player. He also leaves his ability in Latin II to anyone who cares to pick up the leaves and patch them together again. Tessie Micken leaves to Verna Mallo her ability to pick up the‘stray’ men and her ability to wrrite them lovely letters in the shortest available time. (In class preferred.) Lois Strong leaves to Tana Danens her power of Page 6 vamping the men and she leaves a liberal supply of cosmetics to anyone who has any need for them. Anna Mace leaves Clarence to any girl who will send him an occasional wire when they are not having letters regularly. She also wills to Allan Teeple the presidency of the High School. The only requirement of this appointment is that he receive special practice in Parlamentary Law and its practice and that he receive the vote of the ma- jority of the High School for the position. Jean McLean leaves to Urania Locke all the names and dates she has had with the different boys in Cut Bank and elsewhere, to be used as a reference so that she may know which boys to with and which not to. Forest Kindle leaves to anyone who wants it, his position in the H. S. Orchestra. He also leaves his superflous fat to Lloyd Hall. (To be Used as Directed.) Stuart Whetstone leaves to the Personals’ Ed- itor all his Live Wire credit. He feels this is only just, considering all the help that this kind per- son has given in filling the Editorial column. He also wills to Robert Yunck two pairs of suspend- ers, that he (Robert) may follow the old Jewsh custom of gathering this sort of article, and in this way increase his outward signs of wealth and power n the community. I hereby swear that this will was dulv sworn to. signed to. and attestel before me this Twentv- Fifth day of May in the year of our Lord Nine- teen Hundred and Twenty Eight. Judge Lindsay Herbert Hoover A1 Smith —S. D. W. and S. R. S.—’28 That exalted personage, the editor of the Live Wire in hot haste for fresh “copy” and ads. Valedictory Tonight, dear friends, we the class of '28 come together for the last time as a Senior class. When we first entered school, “Graduation” was a word with little meaning to us, but, as we grew old- er, we came to know what it means and to strive for it as for a far away goal that we would some- day hoped to reach. Tonight we have attained our goal, and we are happy in our triumph, though we can not tell what the future has to offer us. We feel that tonight is a turning point in our lives. Heretofore we have faced our joys and tr. pole together. Henceforth we must go our individual ways, perhaps to success—we hope not to failure. We realize that the strangers we will meet will not treat us with the same kindness and consideration that our parents, teachers and classmates have. As we look back ever the way we have come, it does not seem long as it once did. We forget the heartaches and sorrows and remember only the pleasures we have had. We realize tonight as never before just what Graduation really means and what has been done for us. We rea- lize too, what our Graduation means to our par- ents who have made so many sacrifices to give us a high school education. We remember the many kindnesses of the patrons of the school who nave kept our school going; we think of the Board cf Education and what they have done; and then v e remember with gratitude how much extra time and how much patient labor oui teachers Lave put in to prepare us for a successful future. At every Graduation Exercise there is more or less parting, but we feel that we have an unusual situation here due to the terminal’s going out. Many people whom we have known and valued as friends for so long are obliged to move away— some perhaps never to return; but we feel that even if they can not be with us in person, they are in spirit. Some few may forget, but we as a Graduating Class will never forget our dear old Cut Bank High nor the many friends we have here. To the patrons of the school, to the Board of Education, to our parents, to our teachers, and to our many many friends, all of whom have help- ed to make our school days the happiest days of our lives—we, the class of ’28 say farewell. By Thelma Anderson MEANING OF THE GREEN AND GOLD Page 7-------- When Freshmen, the class of '28 chose green and gold as their class colors. Green stands for new life, vitality, achievement and the power to grow. Power to Grow, is well illustrated by the present spring time. Take for example a leafless tree standing in its solitary brown dress. What's the matter with it? Why does it look dark and lifeless? Because it is dead! On the other hand notice a tree or some other vegetation with its vivid green buds and leaves. Young, fresh and eager to grow, it will some day develop into beautiful blossoms and plants that the whole world will appreciate. So with our class, young, fresh, eager to grow and to accomp- lish something of importance. With their green leaves now budding they will some day reap the fruits of this growth in good citizenship, a worthy place in the world’s work and a share in the world”s pleasures. Gold represents the classes wealth. Not necessarily in money, but in ability, personality and talents. As you know gold has always been regarded as the highest standard of monetary val- ue. The government of our country issues bonds and paper money, but in their treasuries they have gold to back these. The gold dollar is the standard of worth for us. That is, we want to look for things of trueworth in our future life. Not brass or copper, but pure gold, in undertak- ings, work or play. But we must remember, that as gold comes in small quantities at high prices, so we shall have to pay in energy and effort for the worth while things in life. So green and growing, we shall endeavor to strive for the gold or true worth in life, with our class colors ever to guide us. J. R. M.—'28. CLASS DAY PROGRAM Address of Welcome ................ John Stahl Class History .................... Lewis Warde Class Statistics .............. Thelma Anderson Class Poem ........................ Ruth Baird Class Will...............................Stuart Whetstone Meaning of the Green and Gold.....Jean McLean Class Prophecy “Old Class Reunion' Class of '28 Class Song and Class Yell Salutatory --------------------— We the class of 1928 welcome you here to- night to our Commencement exercises. Truly, says the ancient proverb: “Woe to the man who builds a big door and not a house be- hind it! which may be interpreted, “Woe to him who makes a big display and has not the where- with to support that display. For four years we have been preparing for life. We have been laying the solid foundations of the substantial house we have planned, of which this Commencement exercise is but a modest doorway. And we believe this is the right way to seek suc- cess. “Success —just what do we mean by the word? Listen to any group of people discussing some one who, so they say, “has succeded in life. “Tom has succeded exceptionally well, he owns such and such property and has all kinds of money in the bank. How well Bessie has done—her hus- band is worth several millions. Are such no- tions of success correct? Is a high financial rat- ing the only attainment that may entitle one to be called successful? How about the mother whose children are healthy and happy? Is she not a success? And the man who spends his time al- leviating human misery and reducing sin—he is surely worthy of the term successful. And to the faithful and competent laborer, Longfellow pays this tribute:— Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing, Onward through life he goes Each morning sees some task begun, Each evening sees it close; Something attempted, something done, Has earned a night’s repose. With the ida of service to others incorporated in the definition of “success each member of the class may hope to attain a large quantity of this desired commodity. We feel that the world has need of us, we are prepared and anxious for serv- ice, and though it will be hard to break the ties that bind us to our school, it is with a feeling of satisfaction that we look forward to assuming new and more responsible positions in the work of the world. “We live in deeds, not years, in thoughts, not breaths; in feelings, not on figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.” Page 8. Class Statistics I have here a paper containing the statistics of the class of '28. Perhaps you may hear some very amazing information, yet, I am not to blame, for I have simply written down the results of the voting of the class, and am telling the things they told to me. I discovered that the average weight of the class is 125.07 lbs., the average age is 18.7 years and the average height is 5 ft. 5 3-4 inches. The following list might give you a poor Impres- sion of this most worthy class, but please do not believe all you hear. 1 The be girl dancer—Lois Strong 2 The best boy dancer—Lewis Warde. 3 The class beauty—Tessie Micken. 4 The handsomest—Stuart Whetstone. 5 The most conceited boy—Stanley Strohl. f The best natured—Forest Kindle. 7 The worst grind—Francis Jones. 8 The most eccentric—Ruth Baird. 9 The biggest bluffer—Jean McLean. 10 The class gossip—Alice Johnston. II The biggest fusser—I have the honor. 12 The class dude—Stuart Whetstone. 13 The most religious—Lois Strong. 14 The meekest—Lewis Warde. 15 The laziest—Francis Jones. 16 The freshest—Stuart Whetstone. 17 The wittiest—Ruth Baird. 18 The brainest girl—There isn't any. 19. The greatest favorite—Robert Young. 20 The least studious—Tessie Micken. 21 The most melancholy—Anna Mace. 22 The best athlete—Stanley Strohl. 23 The slowest—Forest Kindle. 24 The fairest—Alice Johnston. 25 The greatest social light—Jean McLean. 2G The brightest—Figuring from hair it is Rob- ert Young. I am sure that this list gives you a general ide of our class, but perhaps you might be interested in some of our abilities, ambitions, etc. In our class cf '28 we have some very noted an- cestors to whom we feel we owe a great deal. To begin with, we all feel we can safely date back to Adam and Eve. Jean McLean is very proud of being able to claim Paderewski as a relative. I am not exactly sure just what relation he is, but perhaps some ef her abilityto play the piano was derived from him. Ruth Baird claims Abraham Lincoln, which might account for her extreme honesty. Francis Jones insists that Christopher Columbus is an ancestor of his, but we have yet to see if Francis inheirited anv of his traits. John Stahl claims Kaiser Bill, Lois Strong claims Wash- ington, and Stanley Strohl claims Booker T. Wash- ington. For myself, the only noted ancestor I have is Julius Ceaser, which should be an aid in trying to translate his noted works, but as yot I have been unable to detect it. After hearing that imposing list of ancestors, you will better under- stand just why we are what we are. I am afraid that many people, particularly the teachers are mistaken concerning our reasons for attending high school. I was veiy much afraid that perhaps some members of our class might feel in duty bound to let the members of the fa- culty believe that we go to school to learn some- thing, but I am very proud to say that they all tcld the exact truth. For example, Stuart Whet- stone goes to school to catch up on lost sleep, and the teachers failing to understand this, are de- termined to awaken him just when ho is slumber- ing most peacefully. Francis Jones goes because he has no other pla e to go, John Stahl to talk to his teachers, Anna Mace because she is not of age and so goes because of parental persuasion, Stan- ley Strohl to help the teachers, (I don’t know in what way, but I am sure that he can explain him- self) Tessie Micken for the principle of the thing, Lewis Warde to get out of work at home, Alice Johnston to make it a brighter school, (as to brains or color of hair you must ask her personal- ly) Jean McLean to get a diploma, and I go from force of habit. The lower classmen must not take anything to heart that is said tonight, but perhaps this might be of interest to you. After four years of high school life, the general attitude of the Senior Class is that we all believe in getting help on our lessons whenever and wherever possible, if it is free. Many people, particularly the faculty, do not approve of it, but we as Seniors do believe that occasionally it is a necessity and a blessing. Jean McLean is very emphatic in her statement that she greatly enjoys the society of men, as their ignorance amuses her. Tessie seconds it as she thinks they are so different. They might change their opinions if they heard some of the boys’ ideas. Francis simply says “NO!” without anv explanation of himself. Lewis thinks gills are too conceited, and Stanley insists that they lead him astray. It must be admitted that everyone has one or more personal weaknesses, and our class is no ex- ception. Tessie says that hers is men of all sorts. Lewis thinks his is making eyes at the girls and Jean's is staying up nights. The girls, when asked if they would marry Charles Lindbergh if given the opportunity almost all voted against it, and the boys when asked a- bout Clara Bow showed very little interest, except for Stuart, who says he would, but is certain that Bobby Yunck would beat his time. “The class of 1928 of the Cut Bank High School is the very best class that ever originated, is the vote of the class, and that concludes my class statistics. By T. A. Page 9 The basket ball season for the year of 1927-28 opened for the Cut Bank boys in the latter part cf October. The material for the team was splendid as they had three of their last year’s players and three other promising boys. The first game of the season was played at Sweet Grass with Cut Bank victorious bv a score of 26-14. The following week the Cut Bank team invaded Valier and lost to that worthy team 14-16 after holding a lead up to the last three minutes of play. The next game was played on our home floor against Shelby. We won from them by the de- cisive score of 21-7 On the following Friday, the Inverness hoop- sters defeated our cagers 14-8. The next game was played at Shelby, whose team proved a bit tough and our boys walked off the floor with the tail end of the score which was 15-16. The following Saturday night Cut Bank aveng- ed their defeat at Valier by winning from them by a score of 19-14 at Cut Bank. 'n Februarv 11 and 12 the Cut Bank cagers went to the Tri-County Tournament held at Shelby. Cut Bank lest but one game in this tournament and that was to Browning by the small margin of one score. The standing of the teams were: 1st, Browning; 2nd, Shelby; 3rd, Cut Bank; 4th, Valier; 5th, Conrad; 6th Sweet Grass. Cut Bank was awarded the trophy for showing the best sportsmanship, while R. Hil- la was placed in the first Tri-Countv Basket Ball team and S. Strohl won a cash prize for be- ing the best individual star in the three counties. Sten’ev Strohl, captain of the team, was the star of the quintette. His excellent floor work and consistent basket shooting at the Tri-Coun- ty Tournament at Shelby gave him the honor of receiving a prize as individual star. In Strohl Cut Bank loses a performer who probably will not be excelled in years to come. His fighting spirit rhirth continued to the final whistle is something which mav well be followed as an ex- ample by future performers. Richard Hilla was one of the outstanding per- formers. He played at the tournament at Shel- by so consistentiv t.h t he was given a position on the honorary All District Team. Also the Shel- bv papers praised him verv highly for his work. Richard was one of the cleanest and most de- pendable players on the team and will be a valu- able man if still here next year. Two weeks later the C. B. hoopsters invaded the North Central Tournament held at Great Falls but were defeated the 1st game by Inverness by a score of 30-20 and the 2nd game by Centerville 14-26. Richard Barnard ranked as one of the outstand- ing guards of the season. His playing was very valuable to the team because he was always able to stop an opposing player coming down the floor and he also was able to break up a great number of plays which would have netted the other team a basket if they had worked out. Richard still has two years of athletics and will be a great help to the team next year. Romolo Narducci was the smallest player on the team, but he did very well. He played both forward and guard positions. He was praised as •one of the most aggressive guards at the Great Falls tournament by the Great Falls Tribune. Richard Dirlam playing forward for the Cut Bank team this year showed up wonderfully wrell in seme games. His passing and shooting were invincible when it was an “on night” for him. Dirlam has one year at basket ball yet to play and will be very valuable to the team. James Barnard was the star guard for the team. His close guarding and fast team work kept the Cut Bank team from going to defeat more times than once. This year makes James third year of basket ball. S. S. and S. W.—’28.

At the close of the ad- dress the crowd enjoyed an informal dance in the gym for a couple of hours. During the third week of September, the pic- tures of the grades and the High School were tak- en and shown at the local theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of that week. On Friday, September 23rd, the Freshmen were initiated in the High School Auditorium. The Class of ’31, showed great vocal talent and good sportsmanship. November 17, and 18th, Alice Johnston and Thelma Anderson attended the Girls Vocational °ongress at Bozeman as delegates of our scho On their return they gave an interesting as well as instructive talk. In November the school was closed a couple of days as the teachers attended the Teachers' Convention at Great Falls.

Great Northern Utilities Cut Bank, f Airin5ini Telephon Montana wUlIl§Jcl liy Number 62 MAMMY’S LIL’ WILD ROSE Page 13 As usual, the Sophomore class did not have much to do this year except work. The first thing- they did was to elect Miss Faun as their class advisor, Romolo Narducci as president, Vio- let Mace as vice-president, Ruth Gould, secretary, and Walter Bush as Treasurer. The Sophomore Class consider themselves very fortunate this year in having- four members of their class on the basket ball team. The boys were: Romolo Narducci, and the three Richards: Barnard, Dirlam and Hilla. All the boys made a good showing and were awarded letters. Ruth Gould and Richard Barnard represented the Sophomore class in Geometry 1 in the Tri-County scholarship contest, and Richard Barnard entered also in Bookkeeping. Near the end of the year, they lost one of their class mates, Freda Johnke, who had been a mem- ber of their class for several years. She went to Valier where she is now making her home. At the beginning of the school year, the class of 31 enrolled with 26 pupils. The following were elected as class officers. President—Opal Welch (Later Minnie Brose.) Vice President—Emile Bonnet. Secretary—Esther Stufft. Treasurer—Irene McLean. Miss Turck was elected as their class advisor, and George Johnston as their class reporter. The first event of importance in the Freshman year was their initation. In return, they gave a costume party that was enjoyed by the entire student body. The boys of the class organized a basket ball team, playing several games against the 8th grade boys and winning a majority of them. The Freshmen were also represented at the Inter-Scholastic contest held at Shelby. Louise Haglund won second place in Latin I, and Norman Vasboe and George Johnston tied for second place in World History. Some of the class have moved away or dropped out, but 22 students are still enrolled as the class of 31, of the C. B. H. S. This sunny southern 3 act comedy was present- ed by the Junior class April 21, 1928. Mammy Celie, Rose’s Negro Mammy, was fit- tingly impersonated by Margaret Davis. Uncle Joe, Mammy Celie’s shiftless husband added novelty to the play by his occasional fid- dling of some tune. This part was taken by James Benish. Daniel French, the hero and one of Rose’s suitors was well played by Dan Welch. Rose, the leading lady, was acted in real “Star” manner by Margaret Dewing. Orpheus Jackson, a typical mountaineer, was put over in such a way by Leslie Teterud that he became a real stage comedian. Babe Joan, played by Lenore Drurry, won a place by her determination to win Orpheus. Wade Carver, mountaineer gentleman, was pre- sented in realistic manner by Eugene Bonnet. Peggy Freeh, a city girl was portrayed true to life by Tana Danens. Letty Van, Peggy’s chum, was equally well per- formed by Mary Johnston. Lester Van, Letty’s brother, a heart smasher, won the crowd by his clever indifference, given in a talented way by Charles Smith. Hester O’May, Rose’s maiden aunt, wras cap- ably enacted by Clara Teeple. Mrs. Courtvane, a stylish matron, Rose’s grand- mother, was successfully impersonated by Mar- ion Guith. Mr. Pooley and the Junior Class are worthy of praise in the manner in which they entertain- ed the public. The proceeds were used for the Junior Prom and Banquet. R. A. Y.—’28 Stanley Dolling Up for the Prom (Curtain goes up slowly to soft music) Anna is busy with her painting, Jean is softly playing on the piano, and Thelma is sitting in a corner of the room busily writing on her latest novel. The scene is in a studio in Seattle where the three girls are together studying. The time is in 1938, and the scene takes place just before the Old Class reunion that the girls are giving in their studio. Jean: “Thelma are you sure that you sent an in- vitation to every member of our old class of '28, so that no one will be left out? Thelma: “There you interrupt me again, just when I was getting the best inspiration. Yes, I did, and even Bob is comng clear from Paris, and they will all be here in just a little while. Strange too, that after ten years every one of our class should be alive and well.” Jean: “Yes, it will be the first time we have all met together since that eventful night in Mav 1928.” Anna: .Laying down her brush) “A wonderful class it was too! Nothing like it has ever happen- ed before in the annals of the Cut Bank High School.” Thelma: “At least in cur opinion.” Jean: “What high ideals we all had. We will soon see how many of them succeeded and car- ried out their expectations. It won’t be long now till we find out.” (Anna turns on radio and Station KOMO Seattle is announced) “Oh! Listen, girls, it’s Stuart giving a speech ! Isn’t he good?” Thelma: “Well, that’s one that sure to come anyhow.” (Doorbell) Jean jumps up and runs to door) “Well. I do declare! Here’s—well, if it isn’t Lewis? Come right in, Lewis. You have the same old mysterious fascination. Hasn't he, girls?” Anna: “Do sit dowm, Lewis—why, what have you in your hai dkerchief ?” Lewis: “Oh! Gracious! I just found this rare specimen of ornithology.” Thelma: “Why, its just an old frog with a tail, though I must say I never did see one with a tail before.” Lewis: “It’ the largest found and is very rare.” “Thelma: “There's the doorbell again. I win- der who it is. Hello, folks, it sure is good to see you again. It is a long time since we have seen each other. Come right in and sit down. Lewis just came a few minutes ago. See, girls, it’s John Forrest and Francis.” John: “Hello, everybody. Here just on time.” Jean: “Still keeping up your record for punctu- ality, eh, John? My, Forest, just as tall as ever.” Forrest: Yes, I don’t seem to shrink as I grow older—but I can't seem to gain in weight.” Francis: “Just go out and live on the farm a- while like I have, and get corn fed, and you”ll gain fast enough. Lewis, I understand that you are a Biology Professor at Harvard. How is it?” Lew’is: “I represent the Research Department of U. S. Entomology.” (Enter Lois and Alice) Jean: “And here comes Bob too! Hello you there! I spose everyone here will have to talk French to accommodate you.” Bob: “Well I'm afarid I couldn't talk back. I still talk American, thank you. My! It seems good to be back in the United States “and better yet to meet all the old bunch.” Lois: “Do you girls do your own cooking here?” Anna: “No, our work takes up all our time.” Lois: “Oh! I'm so disappointed. I intended to present you a bcok of receipts that I just com- pleted.” Thelma: (Laughs) “Oh, well, we will take the book anyhow, because no one can tell when we might need it.” Alice: “It isn’t good for you girls to eat that restaurant cooking all the time. It wmuld be much better to do your own cooking. Just take a look at Francis. He's a specimen of perfect health. I”ll bet he is used to home cooking.” Francis: “Yes, my wife might not be much for looks, but she sure does know howf to cook.’” Bob: “Let’s see, how7 many are here now?” John: (Going to Window) “Ten and four more to come. Well here are three of them now’.” (Doorbell) Anna: “Well, Stanley, you are still the ladies man, just as you ahvays wcf e.” Stanley: “Oh yes. Only just a little worse. She’s married, you know7, (pointing to Tess.) Tessie: “Yes, and I’m so worried about Archi- bald. He's got such a ccld in his head.” Ruth: “A cold in his head. Well, Tessie, you sure have changed.” (Loud ringing of the doorbell.) Thelma: “Look who’s here. The last of our famous class.” Stuart: “Last but not least!” (Wiping his forehead.) My, I could barely keep tiiis appoint- ment. Am I late? My time is so occupied it be- ing so near election time.” Jean: “You haven't gained much in height, Stuart, but you surely didn't’ miss anything on the w7idth.” —Page 15 Anna: “Now that we are here, suppose we tell of our succe s and failures. Stanley: Lois, you look as if you had something to say. Lois: “Shortly after graduation, I attended the Chicago University, and I took up Home Econo- mics ,and now I am a dietition in a hospital in Los Angeles. Jean: “And all you have to do now is to find a man with a good appetite and get married. Lois: “No thank you, I am perfectly satisfied where I am. Stan: Tess, you look rather worried. What’s the trouble? Tessie: “I was just wonderir- if Archibald would remember to wear his rubbers. He’s so absent minded, and he’s got such a cold in his head. Bob: “What does this Archibald do? Tessie: (Proudly) “Do? Why Archibald is a Bishop in New York, and he is wonderful, but he is absent minded. “Alice are you married? Alice: “What? Me married? I should say not! I’m devoting my life to my profession. I’m a doctor in the same hospital that Lois is a dieti- tion in. I hope that I won’t have to demonstrate my ability tonight. Jean: “Ruth, you explain yourself. Ruth: “I have not much to say for myself. I’m a private secretary to the President of the Univer- sity of Montana, and I still can hold my own with other typists of America. Forest: “Yes, I read in the paper last fail that you won the national prize in typing. It sure made me feel good to see that. Stanley: “Stuart, you do seem to feel awfully miserable. Perhaps you had better tell it and get it off your mind. Stuart: “Well, that’s just wTiat I have been Tying to do all along. I have done pretty well L politics. Stuarts speech Jean: “You’ve done wonderfully well and you are a real credit to the class of ’28. Stuart: “I’ll say I am. Anna: “I certainly am anxious to hear wrhat Stanley did take up for his life profession. What are you doing. Stanley? Stanley: “It was always my ambition to trav- el and— Stuart: “You certainly used to travel around with the girls considerable. Stanly: “That’s just it, ambition to travel and a ladies man, so now I am traveling salesman for Ladies Ready to Wear. I have with me some glove silk negligee, guaranteed not to fade, at the special price of $27.50. Anna: “My, that's high. Do you ever get any- one to buy anything? Stanley: “Oh, yes, just takes a winning smile and a little persuasion. I’ve done wonderfully well Ruth: “Please let Bob sing for us. “I’ve heard so much about his reception in Paris, and it is so long since anyone of us has heard him sing. Bob: “Don’t expect too much of me. What’ll I sing? Thelma: “Sing that old song that you sang the nite of our graduation. Bob: “All right, here goes. Jean won’t you accompany me? Jean: “Oh sure, anything to oblige. (Bob sings and all clap.) All: “Encore, Encore! Bob: Now I have done my duty, what’s your occupation, Jonesy? Francis: “I’m a dry land farmer, and I got 72 bushels to the acre on my Turkey Red last fall, and this year I expect 80. John: “Impossible! I used to be a farmer, and I know better than that. Francis: “Oh no it isn’t. Not for me. It’s been a long time since you have farmed. Lots has been accomplished since then. Just come out to my farm and I'll prove it to you. John: “You win.” “Bob: “Don’t sit dowm—you’re not through. You are so anxious to see everyone else in misery you just try it for a while yourself. John: “Well, I have been employed by the Westinghouse Electric Company, and at present I am employed by the General Electric Company. Thelma: “John, you must have many a shock- ing moment in your work, since you started working with electricity. Now Forrest howT a- bout you? What’s yours?” Forrest: “Shortly after graduating I received an appointment at West Point Military Academy, after which I wras placed in charge of the ROTC of the University of Montana.” Anna: “That is fine, Forest, you always did have the desire to be in command, but we never gave you a chance. Alice: “Lewis, what in the world are you doing? Do you think the plants all have the measles? (Lewis is examining all the flowers and plants in the room.) Lewis: “Please remember that I am at the head of the Research Department of Entomol- ogy, and am very much interested in all kinds of plant and animal life. Stuart: “Now there are just you three girls left. What have you got to say for yourselves? You certainly have a mighty fine little studio here. It looks as though you w’ere prosperous. Thelma: “Oh, wTe manage to get along. I just completed my latest book of short stories. I do hope it is a success. Francis: “Let’s hear it, it sounds good. All: “Do read it, Thelma. Thelma: “All right, but don’t be critical. The critics will say enough without your help. (Op- ens manuscript.) Page 16- Anna: “Really, Thelma, that is the best you have done yet.” Lewis: “That most interesting- of short stories is certainly worthy of praise. Perhaps Jean would now favor us with a selection.” Jean: “Pm not sure about the favor, but here goes. (Plays a selection on the piano) Now An- na, it is your turn to show off a little. I think Anna is doing real well, don’t you? That study- ing like she did in Berlin surely was worth while” All: “It certainly was, Anne, you are a real painter.” Stuart: “We certainly have all done well each in our own way, and I don’t think any of us need be ashamed of our class of ’28. Thelma: “Now let’s sing our class song and give our class yell. Jean, you play for the song, and Stanley, you lead the yell, please do. You were always good at that.” (Stanley crosses over and sits down between four girls on the davenport) Stanley: “Here goes! Everybody ready now. Do your stuff.” (Song and yell given.) Stanley: “Well, folks, I have at last put my de- cision down to these four.” Lewis: “Luck dog!” Four girls: “My hero!” T. A; L. S; J. M; R. Y. and J.
