N IORS -9— SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On an eventful morning in September, 1930, thirty young Freshmen appeared at school ready for work. They were: Marian Kremkau, Letha Teeple, Mildred Sever, Eunice Allison, Kendis Wold, Frances Moe, Eleanor Strong, Willma Ferres, Georgia Narducci, Chester Guith, Wendell Poore, Alfreda Bonnet, Evelyn Bell, Doris Fee, James Miller, Marjorie Peterson, Rex Lahr, Carrie Gaines, Jessie Kleinsmith. Helen Peterson, Rutherford Jones, Wilma Baird, Ida Mae Boyd, Wilma Humble, Marvin Vasboe, William Clapper, Ray Peterson, Lloyd Mattson, Max Tenney and Max Norman. A few weeks afterwards these Freshmen were given their first trial of their high school career. Taken by the upper classmen to the high school gym they survived an ordeal which gave them the right to become full-fledged members of Cut Bank Hi-School. The “return” party turned out very successful and showed the upper classmen that the Freshmen could “do their stuff.” As was the custom we purchased a pennant in our class colors, burnt orange and brown. Our honorable upper classmen took the pleasure of hiding it, and in return for our fruitless search of a week we were obliged to give them a party. Our class officers were: President, Wendell Poore; vice-president, Wilma Baird; secretary, Eunice Alilson; treasurer, Max Norman. Sponsor, Miss E. Ogline. At the beginning of our second year we found that we had lost three members, namely: Eunice Alison, Mildred Sever and Max Norman. But to make up for the loss of these, we gained three new members: Lyle Bedord, Wanetta Wagner, and Robert Woodward. Ah! What a glorious feeling!! Upper classmen at last! Our first priivlege being to help initiate the green Frosh of ’35 passin’ on to them all the punishments inflicted upon us, plus. We took a more forward part in social affairs as well as declamatory contests and the like. During our Sophomore year there were very few things of outstanding importance happening—We served lunches to earn money “For a rainy day.” Our class ofifeers were: President, Ida Mae Boyd; vice-president, Rex Lahr; secretary, Wendell Poore; treasurer, Marvin Vasboe. Sponsor, Miss Baxter. Juniors at last! Those of our members who did not show up for roll call for the third year were: Ida Mae Boyd, Frances Moe, Willma Ferres, Wilma Baird, Lyle Bedord, Robert Woodword and Lloyd Mattson. To make up for the loss of these members we added five new recruits: Florence Gurney, Charles Thompson, Mildred Sever, Robert Reagan and Eunice Allison. We proceeded in high spirits and entered into all social and athletic activities, being well represented in everything of importance. Several in our class placed high in the Scholastic contest which was held here. As our first dramatic work of importance, we presented the play: “Hist! She’s a Man,” which was a big success. The proceeds from this play were used for the Prom. The great event of any Junior year is the Prom. We are very proud to say that our ability coupled with our artistic ideas made it one of the most eventful doings in the history of Cut Bank High School. Our class officers were: President, Eunice Allison: vice-president, Marvin Vasboe; secretary, Rex Lahr; treasurer, Wendell Poore. Sponsor, Miss Baxter. Whew! How fast time flies! Here we are high and mighty Seniors! When this year began we found we had lost four of our comrades: William Clapper, Mildred Sever, Alfreda Bonnet and Charles Thompson, but added Esther Pugerude, Verla Erickson, Madeline Crawford, LeNaire Peters and Leo Ray. This is the last and most exciting year in dear ol’ C. B. H. S. and has been a success under the leadership of Miss Baxter. Officers were: President, Wendell Poore; vice-president, Kendis Wold; secretary, Leo Ray; treasurer, Rex Lahr. We need but mention our play “The Whole Town’s Talking,” for everyone to recall what a huge success it was. We have been more than fully represented in all social, athletic and scholastic activities. Such as the Forensic Society, Debate Squad, Pep Squad (to which all Senior girls belonged) Basketball, Football, Track, Live Wire, Dramatic Works, etc. We are now looking forward to graduation. This will be the last, most memorable and happy event in our high school career. Yet it will be tinged with a few tears of grief because we are leaving our old school, school mates, and teachers. We have had our struggles but they were worth it. Our dear school days left behind—yet always will the sweet memories of the happy days in C. B. H. S. be remembered. —10— CLASS WILL We, the Class of 1934, in twenty-nine individual parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education in full possession of a crammed mind, well-trained memory and almost superhuman understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testament: We give and bequeath to our beloved Superintendent H. C. Davis our sincere affection, our deepest reverence, our heartiest gratitude and the whole unlimited wealth of our eternal memory. We give and bequeath to the dear Faculty, who has been our instruction in all wisdom of the ages, a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams. No longer will they have to worry whether or not we prepared our lessons. It has been hard on them, for Seniors are said to be at all times and under all conditions difficult to handle. But they have done their duty and verily now shall they have their well-earned reward. To the school in general, we leave Mr. Wold, the janitor, providing they are as obedient to him as we were. To the Juniors, we leave our Senior dignity of which we have an overabundance. We also leave them our vacated seats in the assembly provided they maintain our dignity and our polished manners. To the Sophomores our beguiling way with the Faculty and a book on “Child Care” to help them in taking care of the coming Freshmen. To the Frosh, we leave the power of concentration and to these beginners we leave the ladder we used in gaining the road to fame. The following seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted not as worthless things, lavishly thrown away, because we can no longer keep them but as valuable assets to those who may receive them and a continual reminder of the generosity of heart, displayed in our free and full bestowal: Ray Peterson leaves his way with the women to Jack Welch. Eleanor Strong leaves her Shorthand book with Florine Stewart hoping she can learn to write notes in Shorthand as well as Eleanor has. To Merle Magee, Jim Miller bequeaths his ability to cause disturbance and keep on the good side of his teachers. Florence Gurney bestows upon Hettie Bedord her power to pop her gum. Rutherford Jones leaves his beloved Latin book to Irvin Teterud providing he makes good use of it and follows in the paths of the past owner. Marvin Vasboe leaves his love for the higher things in Literature to Lloyd Frisbee. To Peter Anderson, Windy Poore leaves his football ability and his recipe for energy —eat more Grape Nuts, Peter. Max Tenney leaves his love for the teachers to Pat Murphy. To Frances Kremkau, Doris Fee gives the honor of receiving 5 or 6 pounds of gum partly chewed, providing, of course, she will go around and get it off the seats. If Gae Berger promises to treat him real nice, Jessie Kleinsmith will leave Cub Wal-burger to do with as she wishes. Madeline Crawford leaves her art of make-up and chest of cosmetics to Margaret Miller. To Chris Hagan is willed the art of love-making as Vernon Haglund believes Chris is badly in need of it. Leo Ray bestows upon Rolland Bonds his popularity with the fairer sex. To Sally Lewis is bequeathed the beautiful birdlike voice of Evelyn Bell. May she win her fame as Evelyn has. Carrie Gaines wills her quiet and shy ways to Stella Narducci. Georgia Narducci wills her ability as an actress to Lydia Thompson. Esther Pugerude wills her recipe for shortness to Evelyn Stewart. To Louise Bauman, Marjorie Peterson leaves her period of setting in the library chair, but Louise must bring her own cushion if she wishes real comfort. Helen Peterson bequeaths her powder of swallowing to Betty Reagan in case Betty should want to discard her gum in short notice. Rex Lahr gives up his quiet, winning way to Jasper Davis. Charlotte Teeple leaves her immense attraction for the opposite sex to Albertine Halvorson. Marian Kremkau leaves her attraction to the boys to Melba Johnston. To Inez Gunderson, Verla Erickson gives her musical talent and her ability to get out of study periods. Bob Reagan bequeaths with pleasure his polished manners to Miller Berger and his ways of keeping out of mischief. Wilma Humble leaves her nights after school for chewing gum to Betty Reiland. Le Naire Peters leaves her Public Speaking ability to Lillian Sullivan. Letha Teeple leaves Sam to any Junior girl who wants him. Kendis Wold leaves her alluring figure to Anna Rose Price. In witness whereof, we, the Class of 1934, set our hands and seals, and publish this, our last will and testament, this 18th day of May, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-four. —11— COMMAND OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PROCESSES Perhaps none of the seven cardinal principles of secondary education is more important to the individual than a complete command of the fundamental processes. By fundamental processes I mean reading, writing and arithmetic, the basic subjects being taught. Other subjects, such as spelling and grammar or English are of course important. In order to prepare for the superior positions, one must have a good foundation in the fundamentals. Failure to master these fundamental principles has disqualified many a man and woman for the positions of profit and responsibility. English must be carefully considered for a person is largely judged by the English he uses. Even in the very first grades the foundation or basis for good English is begun, and carried through the rest of the grades, and then applied to the high school subjects. Penmanship has been a great barrier but through the advancing methods of the day this is being largely obliterated. The present methods of reading are very superior to the older types. With the ability which he has derived from the new method, of reading rapidly and comprehensively, a student entering high school is able to cover a great deal of material and to understand what he reads. Again in arithmetic we have the fundamentals being first taught in the grades and then applied to the high school courses. Realizing the benefits of a thorough mastery of reading, writing and arithmetic, more time is being devoted to these subjects. There is a greater application of the results of research and scientific technique to the problems of instruction. This study and work is greatly repaid by the rising ability of students to think for themselves and the more complete mastery of the tools of learning. Proficiency in the fundamental processes has been greatly increased by their practical application in extra-curricular activities and even in the subjects themselves. Practical education enables one to continue his own education if he is unable to attend a college. Many a person, after graduating from high school is faced with the necessity of earning his own living, or for various reasons is not able to continue his education directly. This person must seek other methods of adding to his knowledge. With the foundation he has received in his elementary and high school courses, he is able to go out into society and take his place as a desirable member, and that is the goal toward which all mankind is working. HELEN PETERSON, Salutatorian. ETHICAL CHARACTER Of al the aims of the educational system, perhaps the most important is that which has to do with moulding good ethical character. Character is the sum of a person’s reactions to certain situations. Since character is developed as the child grows older, much can be done to mould it along the most desirable lines. The great responsibility of moulding and developing character rests on the home, the church, and the school. In school the child is taught book knowledge and also the importance of good character. As the child matures he comes to realize that what he will be in later life depends a good deal on what foundations he is laying today. When the student reaches high school he comes to a broader horizon. Here the finishing touches are put on his education and he is ready to go into the world and take his place as a citizen. During the high school course, the student has many resources at his command and learns to depend upon himself more and more. Here he is able to test his strengths and weaknesses and remedy them if such is the necessity. Some instruction is given on character building but more important than this is the personal influence of the teacher The teacher cultivates good traits in the students by setting a good example. The aim of the school system is to turn out people with high moral standards as well as with high intellectual standards. After this brief anlysis of the aims of the course which we have brought to completion, we, the class of 1934, cannot but feel grateful to the people who have made is possible. Although we owe a great debt to many people we feel that we can justify their faith in us by fulfilling the purpose for which all these twelve years of preparation were made. Tonight we stand before you as the graduating class of 1934. Tonight we must pass from the classroom to a greater workshop— the world. Our days of preparation are over and we are ready to pit our mental and moral strength against the world. We are filled with regret that we must leave behind our high school days and their happy memories but this feeling is outweighed by an eager desire to apply the lessons which we have learned well. We cannot fail if we keep our class motto ever before us — “We can, we will.” WENDELL POORE, Valedictorian 12— i SCHOOL CALENDAR SEPTEMBER 5—First day of school. 16—Oilmont Football game—28-0. 30—Valier 0; Cut Bank 28—Football.

We, the class of ’35, started out as a group of extremely green Freshmen, but we early had our spunk taken out of us by the initiation. We showed the upperclassmen that we could “dish it out as well as take it’’ by a return party which was a huge success. As Freshmen our class enrollment was 36 which included the following members: Donald Henry, Mildred Bedord, Kathryn Bliss, Chris Hagen, Evelyn Westfall, Evelyn Stewart, Evelyn Cole, Helen Olson, Bernice Omsberg, Melba Johnson, Edward Hughes, Lloyd Johnson, Clifford Teterud, Albertine Halvorson, Thomas Evanson, Leonard Davis, Edna Paul, Edna Powell, Betty Reiland, Stella Narducci, Merle Magee, Louis Bonnet, Orville Echutte, Robert Pepper, Conrad Walburger, Gae Berger, Eugene Simpson, Mary Klein, Lloyd Frisbee, Lillian Sullivan, Jack Welch, Ralph Strong. Those who drop- ped during that year are Evelyn Westfall, Evelyn Cole, Leonard Davis, Edna Paul, and Louis Bonnet. Our Sophomore year started out with a bang by our class enlarging a few members, namely: Jessie and Helen Johnson (who dropped before the end of the term) and Thomas Evanson. One of the activties during the Sophomore year was the giving of an assembly program “Sparkin.” The actors and characters were Orry Sparks, Lloyd Johnson; Lesie, Albertine Halvorson; Grandmother Pains-berry, Evelyn Stewart; and the mother, Susan, Helen Johnson. This play went over big and was given along with the Junior play to help them out as there’s alone would not have been quite long enough. Thus far in our Junior year our enrollment has been increased by the addition of Kenneth Pugerude, Jack Stower and Hazel Overdahl. Hazel dropped out shortly after starting and Mary Klein also. Edward Hughes did not start with us at the beginning of this year. We feel proud of our boys who have made the first team in basketball and football. They are: Merle Magee, Conrad Walburger, Chris Hagen, Orville Schuette and Eugene Simpson, and we feel that we have set a record in athletics that is hard to beat. We have great hopes in our Junior play and Prom and hope that they will rank among the best ever given in Cut Bank. —14— SOPHOMORE CLASS Left to right—first row: Helen Anderson, Doris Olson, Louise Baumann, Frances Kremkau, Mrytice Humes, Phyllis Poore, Dorothy Mattson, Margaret Pugerude, June Baker, Irene Swenky; second row: Mr. Howe, advisor, Pat Murphy, Roland Bonds, Lyda Thompson, Carmen Cobb, Dorothy Davenport, Margaret Miller, Ruth Van Demark, Carmen DelRe, Dorothy Danens, Gordon Humes; third row: Jack Welch, Miller Berger, Raymond Britton, Ray Johnson.

We entered high school as Freshmen in 32, very green and unaware of what our future was going to be. There were 48 of us ready and willing to start our career as high school students. There was much confusion among us the first couple weeks until we finally got accustomed to the school routine. We were initiated October 7th and we were just as frightened and green as any group of Freshmen, but we survived as well as could be expected. Miss Ogline was our Freshmen class sponsor and under her careful and willing supervision we sped safely through the first year of high school. We gave a Freshmen return party, initiation program, and an assembly program during that year. In the fall of ’33 we started as Sophomores. Many of our fellow classmates of the preceeding year were absent from the group. Those missing were: Nile Wagner, Raymond Smith, Arne Evenson, Americus Lucke, William Pierce, Albert Laverato, Arthur Perrine, Harold Dial. Barbara Eder, Lynn Brant, and Donald Clapper. During the year, six new students joined us, those being Carmen Cobb, Dorothy Davenport, June Baker, Kenneth Pardue, Charles Merrill and Margaret Pugerude. Wilson Brown and Eugene Johnson dropped school before the close of the Sophomore year, so in all we were a group of 36. Mr. Howe is our Sophomore class sponsor. His ever ready and willing advice helped us through many difficulties. Under his helpful supervision we gave a Sophomore party, and assembly program. Class officers are: President, Dale Oliver; Vice-President, Frances Kremkau; Treasure, Dorothy Danens; Secretary, Pat Murphy; Class Reporter, Margaret Miller. We are ready for the time to come when we shall be Juniors. —15— FRESHMAN CLASS From left to right, row one: Betty Gjertson. Margaret Michaels. Sally Lewis. Esther Kliensmith, Rcatha Walburger.

We, the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-seven find Cut Bank High School no snap as regards to studies. At the beginning we elected the following officers: President, Irvin Teterud: Vice-President, Florene Stewart; Secretary, Margaret Michaels; Treasurer, Murray Williamson. Our enrollment was first 41 in number but the group has decreased to 38. No sooner had we been initiated than we made plans for a return party to be given the upper classmen. We desired to show them not only that we held no hard feelings for the bruises we received, but also we wished the school to get a better appreciation of our various talents. The party was not only a huge success, but also marked a new type of party; entertainment along with the dancing. Mr. Micken, our advisor, supposedly feeling there was a great deal of good basket ball material among us, made the suggestion that we organize a boys’ basket-ball team. We then agreed to have a certain night set aside in each week so that we might practice, having the hope of some day being a player of the first group. Murray Williamson is the only member of our class thus far to make the first team. We scrimmaged several times with other classes of the High School, but our first preliminary game was with the Junior High School, “The Wolf Pups.” In this game, the following played on our side: Jasper Davis, center; Jack Warner and Irvin Teterud, forwards, and Benn and Warren Kapp, guards. Among others were Donald Frisbee, Mervin Dahlen, James Worthington, Kenneth Johnson, Malcolm Warbaugh, Peter Anderson, LeRov Rush, and Frank Denney who were constantly substituted and given a period of time to play. We lost our first game by a short margin and as a result felt downhearted, but feeling we could do better next time, appeared two weeks later in a preliminary against them again. This time after a hard fight, we won by a wide margin. The Wolf Pups, wanting to break the tie, tackled us again, but again we won. We then played them a fourth game three weeks later and we came out on top once more. Some of the members of our class tried for debate squad. These were Donald Frisbee, Mervin Dahlen, Peter Anderson, and Irvin Teterud. After the try-out speeches, Donald Frisbee and Irvin Teterud made the second squad. All in all we have tried to be a real help to C.B.H.S. —16— SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Oh. what a day for an exploration. We two editors climb aboard the rocket—it is in perfect order. A slight swaying, then all of the necessary buttons, levers, wheels and dash controls are in place. A dizzy feeling and we are off—off to the moon. 1030 miles an hour. Then speed is slower we near the unknown territory. It becomes difficult to breathe, even though we wear masks suitable for such an adventure. Minutes, hours, days and soon months pass— nothing has been seen except grey and w'hite objects in the distance. We become hungry, our supplies running short some time before morning, but we find the Milky Way and eat delicious chocolate bars until our sides ache. But now we are thirsty: we’ll find a dipper. We can’t stop here, we must go on. It becomes unbearable and finally we relax into a sound peaceful slumber. Bang! What now? Oh—what a sensation: we are falling, faster, faster. We must have struck a comet, why weren’t we awake to avoid this terrible disaster. Will we ever stop falling—this feel-i ig is beyond description. Things are beginning to become visible—then again a queer feeling—we are falling apart—our legs—our toes—our fingers, until we are scattering into about twenty-nine pieces. Now. what are we going to do? We must find the rest of our body—each piece must do its share of searching or we will never be able to tell the tale of this adventure. Perhaps someone can help us—here are trees, it's a city—but where? What’s that? You have found someone?” said the leg as it met with the big toe sometime later. Tell me what you have found. The toe proceeded: Well, of course I have been looking for you. but in the meantime I have met with nearly every part of my former organization. while they, like I. were searching for help to find the rest of our body. Here is what they have told me. And he began. These are all old class-mates of ours and I know you want to know all about them. The first one I believe mentioned was Evelyn Bell. She was in good old Chi. You’d never guess what she was doing. Quiet, reserved Evelyn— the ambitious student was taking up fan dancing from Sally Rand and was she good! She was surely showing Sally up. Next. I believe. I met someone by the name of Bob Reagan. He was in a terrible hurry and a nervous perspiration covered his wrinkled brow’. He showed signs of being worried. He was carrying a book, but it didn’t look like a book—more like a volume of books under one cover, or one of Webster’s large library dictionaries. I began to get inquisitive and asked him what he was doing and why he was burdening himself with the oversized book—then he explained. He had written a book—w'hat a brain he must have—oh. yes—the title was (can you imagine) Wine. Women and Song. He. incidentally, was trying to get it published and probably still is. Then things went from bad to worse. I met Max Tenney—remember him? He conceived the idea (must have been his public speaking career that gave him such ideas) that an Evangelist with his fiery hair and magnetic personality would be a real sensation. Unfortunate for those who have to listen to him—he has an opportunity to go to China with his teachings. My next acquaintance was with a circus manager. It wasn’t a very big outfit but was pretty well known. He began telling another person standing near him about a certain very charming young lady he had in his show. He raved about her until the fellow finally went in to see for himself. They entered a large tent and I crept in behind them to satisfy my curiosity. Low and behold! A girl came out with snakes wrapped around her neck and arms, and to your surprise and mine —none other than Eunice Alison stood before me. What a charm she must have over those snakes! My next experience was in a small town in Nevada. Wendell Poore—our class president (I really suppose I should give him quite a prophecy, a president of a bank or something but anyway)— how I remember him in class meetings. He always reminded me more of a professor than a president. He seemed to have had his fling at good luck when he was in high school because he was operating a little filling station in the desert. He said he hadn’t seen anyone of our class since he w'ent out there so you can imagine how glad he was to see what was left of me. Had you ever noticed how Wendell used to treat a little girl by the name of Esther Pugerude? Well. I had. so I began to wonder what had happened to her. Speak of the devil and they will appear. The next morning I came upon a news boy. As I had no money I began glancing around, thinking something might be in the paper that would be of interest. Sure enough, in large headlines. Esther Pugerude weds prize fighter. His name. I believe, was Rex Lahr. one of our old class mates who seems to have gained quite a name for himself. Well. Wendell—you should have developed your muscle cause she likes ’em big and powerful. Maybe, she was the kind who needs protection—or what do you think? Ha. Ha! — this is good, here we have real news —FLASH—our old pal and classmate Florence Gurney, gee this is sure good. I almost split when I saw her. She was bending down, on all fours, searching for something—the way she was looking for it. it appeared to be very valuable. Pretty soon she raised up and was holding a magnifying glass in one hand and something wiggly in the other. Can you imagine—it was a little potato bug. I then asked her what she was doing. She seemed very interested and began telling me in words that only a person of her profession could understand. Well to sum it all up. she was hunting different species of bugs—I’d call her a bugoligist— what would you call her. just plain bugs? Lee Ray. the young man with the big ideas— poor fellow—he never will amount to much now. He says he is starting at the bottom as all good businessmen do and is going to work his way to the top. He’s sweeping streets at present, poor lad— how my heart goes out to him. He did tell me however that he expects to be promoted to the position of garbage man and then he can have time after his work to think of what his next promotion will be. He should never have gone to Shelby for employment though—because they will keep him there in the streets. Then I chanced upon an old acquaintance of mine, none other than Rutherford Jones. He has become a famous crooner. All day long he answers his fan mail and in the evening he croons the SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17) latest song hits for his public. What a man—what a voice. You can't imagine my surprise when I saw Charlotte Teeple bending over a tub with the sweat running off her wrinkled brow. Numerous small children flocked around her and upon inquiry I found them all to be hers. She informed me that she was supporting her family by washing. It seems too good to be true that I was so fortunate in seeing all my old friends but even yet there were more happy surprises in store for me. for I saw a plane going through breathe taking stunts and at times I feared for the pilot's safety, but he made a perfect three-point landing and who should alight but Verla Erickson, but she wasn’t the pilot—she always did like guys with high ambitions. Scandal, scandal. I wouldn't have believed it but I saw it myself. Vernon Haglund has gone Hollywood and is now writing articles for the love-lorn columns in various movie magazines. Write in and find out all about the art of love, he knows all the questions and the answers too! Jessie Kliensmith is now a great business woman. We always knew Jessie was level headed and now she is carving a career for herself. She is at the head of the most prosperous business firm and is swiftly working to a higher place in a hand laundry in Harlem. New York. Well. James Miller, always was ambitious, but I doubt if anyone of us ever dreamed he would become a professor. He is now working as professor in a school with the enrollment of 20. but says he expects the enrollment to be 22 next year. I have even been at the scene of our school-hood days, where we spent many happy hours in the old brick school house. There I found that our faithful janitor had been replaced by Ray Peterson. Ray goes about his tasks singing and told me that he could not bear to leave the old school so he took the job as janitor. I also came upon Marian Kremkau in the town of Cut Bank. You could never guess what our Marian is doing, so I will tell you. Marian has taken over her father's dairy and has quite a large business. Some people might find it interesting to talk to her if they are interested in the dairy business. Coming upon a large group of people standing before a platform I decided to see what the attraction was. Soon a young lady appeared. I was not close enough to see her face but the gestures she used were familiar. I pushed my way through the crowd to recognize my old classmate. LeNaire Peters. Of course. I didn't expect such a famous orator to recognize me but she did and gave me one of her charming smiles. Strange as it may seem, the topic for her oration was The Value of Gossip. Are you prepared for a real surprise? Marvin Vasboe. of all people, has become a water boy for elephants. He is very fond of his elephants (he really thinks they are his) and calls them each by name. As I was standing there watching him. he told me he wanted to do big things for his new girl friend. Carrie Gaines, so he took the job. Kendis Wold. I believe, was the next person I came into contact with. She told me that she had joined the secret service” and because of her ability to keep things to herself (she must have changed since 1934) she has become a very important part of the force. Her only difficulty is that she is still looking for the Lindbergh baby. I was leisurely strolling down Fifth Avenue in Chicago when much to my bewilderment a bunch of wild shouts were heard. I looked in the direction of a tall building and of course my first idea was someone will have a good headache in the morning —but no—for once I was wrong. It was not long until I found that an old classmate. Eleanor Strong, was being married—and to whom do you think? None other than Scar Face Al. But how did he get out of prison? That’s easy. After Eleanor graduated she went to work doing odd jobs and finally raised enough money to pay for his release. Way back in 1934 Wilma Humble, much to her sorrow, stuck her gum on her desk. Mr. Taylor saw’ her sly movements and for punishment told her she must remove all the gum on every desk. Wilma has conscientiously kept at her w’ork ever since, although Mr. Taylor is gone and no longer supervises her work. It may seem unbelieveable but Wilma enjoys chewing gum while she works. I found Helen Peterson conducting lessons in voice training. Everyone knows what a melodious voice Helen had and she must have known it too for she is turning out many girls every year with voices as sweet and musical as her very own. During our high school career Marjorie Peterson confided in me several times that her chief ambition was to elope. I nearly swooned when I found that Marjorie was still single. But my surprise knew no bounds when I found that she was still looking for a man to elope with. You’d better hurry Marjorie or you will be too feeble to climb down the ladder from your boudoir. (Reference: Home for retired gentlemen.) Doris Fee wanted to be an old maid and run a cat hospital but fate took a turn for the worse and Doris married. Her marriage was short and she soon became a grass w’idow. At the present time Doris is looking for a suitable location for the long delayed cat hospital. Ha—my fair one. thou hath gained pounds upon pounds since last I gazed upon thee—my dear Georgia, yes—my eyes are not deceiving me it is Georgia Narducci. but my. my. how’ fat you have gotten. Georgia is chief taster of government light wines and beers. Because of her excellent taste she has held this position for several years. She was given an article to some newspaper reporters when I happened on the scene. Her statement was something like this: I wish my public to know’ that when I reach the age of eighty I plan to retire from this business and see the world. (Does she mean she intends to travel on the water wagon?) Now. my dear readers, we must emerge from this spell which has been cast upon us by our class (writing this prophecy.) As for we editors—a prophecy for ourselves might be inclined to show a little partiality so we leave you here to laugh, weep or groan—just as you choose, just so it doesn’t disturb any classes, etc. May we hope (as Mr. Micken would have said it) this bit of Burn’s wise-cracking will penetrate the old skulls. Oh. what a gift, it would be to give us. to see ourselves as others have seen us. —18— WHO'S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD ATHLETICS BASKETBALL Season of 1931-32 The team developed slowly but steadily and showed improvement from game to game. The Wolves had very little scoring power but were exceptionally strong on defense. This is shown by the fact that they held 8 teams to 5 field goals or less and won the trophy for best defense in the Sub-District tournament. The Wolves lost their first four games but finally hit their stride in the Conrad game to win. In their big trip of the year they de-lea ted Havre 9 to 7 but were smothered by the sharpshooting Chinook squad. After returning to the home court, the Wolves defeated Shelby and Whitefish. second place winner in the 1931 State tournament, on successive nights. Conrad was next defeated on their own floor and then Brwoning on the local court. The Wolves completed the schedule by defeating Sunburst and Sweet Grass by decisive margins but were unable to beat Shelby on their small floor. Cut Bank won the Sub-District title for the first time in its history. Conrad and Brady were defeated in two hard fought games. On the final night Cut Bank played Browning for the championship. The Indians got off to a ten to one lead in the first few minutes but the Wolves remained unruffled and were trailing by only one field goal at the half. The score changed constantly the final half but a last minute basket by Whetstone decided the game. At the District Touranment the team did not play well, having shot everything they had to win the Sub-District. They lost to Belt and Hingham and were eliminated. The members of the 1931-32 championship team were: H. Halvorson. H. Yunck. M. Magee, B. Whitehead. H. Johnston. E. Poore. F Whetstone and M. Vasboe. C. B.

Cut Bank at Shelby 18 21 Sweet Grass at Cut Bank 27 14 Sunburst at Cut Bank 29 14 Season of 1932-33 After a brief rest from a strenuous football season and a week s practice the Wolves opened the basketball season by defeating Sunburst and Valier on their courts. Whitefish proved to fast for the locals even on our own floor. The 33 team felt well satisfied to beat the alumni most of whom were members of the 1932 championship team. The Wolves were unable to play on equal terms with the larger Columbia Falls and Whitefish teams and were defeated by both. The team was unable to hit its stride and was defeated twice by Shelby as well as by Browning. The Wolves defeated the Cowboys on their floor but lost on the home floor due to overconfidence. In the district tournament the Wolves seemed to be victims of circumstance. They had to play three games on the final day which was too much for them. The boys had never quite recovered from the strenuous football season. Cut Bank placed second and won the trophy for the best defense for the second consecutive year. The lettermen were: H. Johnston. M. Vasboe. C. Walburger. M. Magee. E. Poore. E Simpson. O Schuette. W. Poore, and B. Oliver. C.

In the Valier game, however, they broke loose and rolled up a 45-20 score. In the Browning game on their floor, the Wolves staged a last half rally but fell short of winning by one goal. The alumni were taken easily but the Whitefish team was too strong. The Wolves played the Fishers even for three quarters but were unable to hold their own in the last minutes of play. The next two games were played on the Whitefish and Columbia Falls floors. The boys fought hard but the height and weight of the opponents put them at a disadvantage. On returning the Wolves defeated Sunburst and Valier by comfortable margins. The Wolves led a greater part of the time in the Shelby game but were nosed out by two points the final minutes. The Browning game proved to be the best of the season. The first quarter was even but the Wolves got the lead in the second quarter and held it until the end of the game. The team revenged its early season defeat by snapping Browning s string of eleven victories. The Shelby game on the local floor was even more exciting and close than the previous encounter. The Coyotes barely won by a single gift toss. The season was completed by defeating Brady in an overtime period and a victory over Conrad. The district tournament was played on the Cut Bank court this year. It turned out to be the hardest fought contest for several years. The four strong teams were so well matched that the final night was necessary to definitely decide the winner. Cut Bank defeated Sunburst and Brady in the first play offs and met Shelby in the championship tilt. The Wolves played on even terms with Shelby in the first half but the loss of Magee in the early part of the second quarter put them at too great a disadvantage. Shelby won first. Cut Bank second, and Browning third. In basketball, as in football. Coach Taylor has been very successful in turning out clean, hard fighting, as well as winning teams. In the 1931 tournament the W'olves placed second. The next year with most of the regulars back, the Wolves won a majority of their games and defeated Browning in the tournament to become champions. Last year's team was faced with several difficulties but placed third in the district. Although this year's team ranked with the best in the district, they lost the championship due to bad breaks in the final game. The lettermen of the 1933-34 season were: O. Scheutte, L. Ray. B. Oliver. C. Hagen. M. Vasboe. C. Walburger. and M. Wiliamson. C.

They lost a hard fought battle to Whitefish, a strong A class team, largely due to inexperience against the forward pass. Valier was decidedly outplayed here although we could only score once. In both games with Browning the Wolves outclassed the Indians in all parts of the game. Cut Bank lost the second game with Valier but poor officiating seemed to be the deciding factor. The Shelby game was well played by both teams but the Coyotes were able to shove over another touchdown in the final minutes of play. The game with Conrad was also well played by both teams. Whitehead intercepted a Conrad pass and ran 98 yards for a touchdown, aided by excellent interference. Then by well executed plays the Wolves put over two more touchdowns and stopped Conrad’s pass rally to win 19 to 0. Whitehead and Johnson in the backfield, and Wagner in the lines were outstanding players. C.B. Opp. Sept. 26, Cut Bank at Whitefish 0 26 Oct. 3, Valier at Cut Bank 7 0 Oct. 10.

Season of 1932 The football season of 1932 was very successful. Cut Bank won the North District B. championship and tied for first in thfe triangular conference. At the beginning of the season the prospects were not very bright. However, Coach Taylor worked hard with what material that was left after graduation had taken eight regulars. The season was marked by steady improvement from game to game. The Wolves easily defeated Oil-monts green but scrappy team in the first game. They then lost a hard fought game to the strong Whitefish team. The Wolves then returned and defeated all the B class contenders on this side of the mountains. The Conrad game was one of the hardest of the season. The Wolves were far out-weighed but they fought gamely and won 7 to 0. The Power team was no match at all, and the locals scored at will. Cut Bank reached a long sought goal by decisively beating Shelby. E. Poore carried the ball to the 40 yard line, on a lateral pass on the kick off, from there Johnston carried it over for a touchdown on the first play against the Coyotes. The Big Sandy game was the hardest of the year but was finally won in the last quarter. In the district —22— FOOTBALL finals, Stanford could not stop the speedy Cut Bank men and were defeated 34 to 0. Cut Bank lost to Libby in the state semifinals at Whitefish in a sea of mud. This was the Wolves first appearance in the mud, while Libby had played in it all year. The speed and deception of the C. B. eleven was useless in the mud and they were unable to stop the heavy Libby backs. Johnston and Poore in the backfield, and Magee and Jones in the line were the outstanding players of the season, all were chosen on the all-tri-angular-conference team. The football team of ’32 was successful because the all-for-one and one-for-all spirit was highly developed. Their grit and determination when winning or losing moulded them into such a smooth functioning unit that they overcame their greatest handicap—lack of weight—and swept opposition aside. The letter men of the 1932 season were L. Frisbee, M. Magee, R. Jones, O. Schuette, V. Haglund, C. Brown, W. Brown, E. Poore, E. Simpson, M. Vasboe, H. Johnston, W. Poore, B. Oliver,, R.

Bad weaiher caused postponements and delays which were very disheartening. However, in judging from the number of games won and lost the results are not so depressing. The Wolves got a good start by defeating Oil-mont. The second game was played at Whitefish. The team gained valuable experience in football strategy at the expense of a defeat. The next contest was at Valier. The Cut Bank eleven did not work smoothly in the game but managed to complete several forwards—to win by four touchdowns. A feature of this game was a 60 yard return of a punt for a touchdown, by L. Ray. On the next Saturday, the Wolves played on the local field against Havre’s B team. Neither team seemed to have the edge the first half, with the result that no goals were made. In the opening minutes of the second half, Havre blocked a C. B. punt which resulted in a touchdown. As the game proceeded in to the final quarter, the Wolves rallied and put over two tallies. The first was made by a forward pass and the second by straight plays. Conrad was scheduled next but adverse weather conditions caused it to be postponed. Shelby was played on the local field this year. This game proved to be the most heartbreaking game of the season. The boys had not been able to play any games for three weeks and were not in the best of physical condition. The result was that a number were hurt and taken from the game. Shelby managed to make a lone touchdown and held the Wolves scoreless. The Wolves used the speedy, deceptive style of play again this year. The backs were small so deception and a passing attack was necessary. The line could be depended upon to open holes when line bucks were necessary but they were at their best when it came to holding the opposition from making yardage. Since Mr. Taylor first came to Cut Bank in the fall of 1930 he has been very successful in turning out good teams. The first year he worked with no equipment (except a football) and taught the boys the rudiments of the game. The team won two games and lost three. The next year, with new football equipment, Cut Bank made an excellent showing. They were defeated by one touchdown margins by Valier and Shelby in this district. In 1932, after only one year of real football experience, the Wolves defeated every contender in the Northern •District and became champions. The 1933 team also showed its mettle against the strong Whitefish team and in Valier, Havre, and Shelby games. Cut Bank has a right to be proud of its football teams. Whether the Wolves are winning or losing they keep on fighting until the last whistle blows. Whether the Wolves win or not, football will always be successful at Cut Bank because the fellows turn out for a chance to play a clean and sportsman-like game. The following won letters for 1933: M. Magee, C. Walburger, R. Jones, O. Schuette, M. Tenney, R. Peterson, C. Hagan, C. Aubrey, J. Miller, R. Reagan, E. Simpson, M. Vasboe, L. Ray, W. Poore. B. Oliver and M. Williamson. C.B.

About twelve men turned out and we were able to enter a man in most events. The team participated in only one meet — the Tri-County at Shelby. Before the meet Shelby was the favorite but Cut Bank upset the dope by placing in every event except the mile relay. Three new records were hung up by C. B. men and Cut Bank became a strong contender for track and field honors. Sel-don Frisbee held the honor of being the outstanding trackman of 1932 by placing first in the discus and high jump and second in the javelin. The following men won letters: S. Frisbee, B. Whitehead, E. Poore, S. Wagner, V. Haglund, L. Frisbee, E. Simpson and M. Magee. Cut Bank ..................... 47 Shelby ....................... 40 Valier ....................... 30 Conrad ....................... 16 Oilmont ....................... 7 The Wolves entered the season of 1933 with determination to retain the championship won the previous year at Shelby. For the first time it was possible for Cut Bank to enter in more than one meet. The boys drove to Havre and entered the Hi-Line meet there in May. The team made a very creditable showing by placing second. The Tri-County Meet was held a week later at the local field. The Wolves were handicapped by the lack of men because each member of the team was forced to enter in two or three events. However, the team had a score of 73 to Shelby’s 52 while Oilmont trailed with 13. This meet was perhaps the most successful as yet held. The weather was ideal and consequently a number of records were broken. The Wolves had an outstanding 880 relay team this year. They not only won first in the Havre meet but also set a record of one minute and 40.6 seconds in the Tri-County meet. The members of this team were: Vasboe, Haglund, Magee, L. Frisbee, C. Walberger, B. Oliver, and C. Aubrey. Eugene Poore, track captain for 33 finished his athletic career in high school by winning four firsts and a second. He won first in the 220 yard dash and second in the 100 yard dash in the Havre meet and three firsts in the 50, 100, 220 yard dashes in the Tri-County meet. A large number turned out for track this year and a number of meets are planned for those who can fulfill the qualifications. The proposed meets are the Tri-County at Oilmont, the Havre or Great Falls meet, and the state meet at Missoula. A large number of track letter men are back again and hopes are high for a third consecutive championship team. The returning letter men are M. Vasboe, W. Poore, M. Magee, L. Frisbee, C. Walberger, B. Oliver, and C. Aubrey. —24— CLASS Nickname Future Occupation EUNICE ALLISON “Unney” Crystal Gazer EVELYN BELL “Eve” Music Teacher MADELINE CRAWFORD “Jimmie” Married in Oilmont VERLA ERICKSON “Veva” Dancing Instructor DORIS FEE “Shorty” Hermitess CARRIE GAINES “Carrie” Hollywood Comedienne FLORENCE GURNEY “Frenchy” Pres.

All persons receiving letter awards for interschool athletics are eligible for membership, and are admitted upon approval of the club. This club is for the purpose of making training rules, determining who shall receive letters, and the kind of letter for each class of athletics. Leo Ray, Rutherford Jones, Mr. Taylor; third row: Chris Hagen, Lloyd Frisbee, Orville Schuette, Merle Magee, Robert Reagan, Conrad Walburger, Ray Peterson. New members who joined this year are: Robert Reagan, ’34; Max Tenney, ’34; Leo Ray, ’34; Chris Hagan, ’35; Charles Aubrey, ’36; Murray Williamson, ’37. Club officers for the school year ’33 - ’34 are as follows: President ................... Marvin Vasboe Secretary-Treasurer ..... Rutherford Jones Publicity Manager ............. Dale Oliver Sponsor ........................ Mr. Taylor —28— PEP SQIJAI) In the fall of 1933 it was suggested that C.B.H.S. should have a Pep squad. This organization was the purpose of furthering school spirit and supporting athletics . After organizing this group, Miss Baxter was chosen as the sponsor and the following officers were elected: President, Madeline Crawford; Vice-President, Georgia Narduc-ci; Secretary, Evelyn Stewart; Treasurer, Doris Fee. , New yells and songs, some original and other school favorites were the basis of the teams support and it offered much encour-agment to the “Wolves.” Uniforms were earned by the group through candy sales. The uniforms consisted of white trousers, purple and gold sweat-shirts with C. B. on the front as a symbol. One of the big social events of the year, was thi Pep Squad school party, which the majority of the school body and Alumni attended. The Tarrant Oilers furnished the music, making the party a huge success. The cooperation of the girls made it possible to sell candy and a lunch at this party. The money raised from this was for the transportation of the Pep squad to Shelby and Conrad in support of our basketball team. A demerit system was worked out to encourage perfect attendance at games and meetings, and to prevent wearing uniforms outside of group activity. Any girl receiving five demerits, was automatically dropped from the club. Only girls from the three upper classes were admitted into this organization. At the end of the season there were twenty-three members, previously there had been twenty-seven. The pep squad was a success considering the fact that this was its first year. Much loyal support was given during the District tournament in which three outstanding stunts were given—the letter, flashlight and pyrmid stunts. Inasmuch as this has proven to be such a successful organization we believe it will continue to be prominent in the coming years of Cut Bank High School. —29— O R C H E S T R A Reading from left to right—first row: Betty Reagan, LeNaire Peters, Ruth Van Demark, Eleanor Strong, Margaret Miller, Evelyn Bell, Violins: Verla Erickson, piano; Miss Phillips, director: Lloyd Frisbee, Norris Van Demark, Merlin Fisk, Philip Michaels and Milton Hicks, violins. Second row: Margery DelRe, Anna Rose Price, Evelyn Teterud, Marjorie Williams, Robert During the past three years the membership of the orchestra has increased from sixteen to thirty-six players. There has been a marked advancement in the proficiency of each player. The violin section, which distinguishes the orchestra from the band, now consists of nineteen members. The orchestra, during 1932-33 met three times a week in the assembly. During 1933-34 the plan of having two rehearsals a week in the music room during activity period was followed. Much has been accomplished by the group this year. Stress has been laid in sight-reading, interpretation, and Peterson and John Anderson, violins; Esther Kleinsmith, Evelyn Stewart, clarinets; Albertine Halvorson, Ralph Strong, Francis Hicks, trumpets. Third row—Robert Pepper, alto horn; James Bell, Jack Stower, trombones; Gordon Humes, tuba; Lena Miller, drums; Conrad Walburger, tuba; Frank Denny, Peter Anderson, trumpets; Grant Brown, Jack Warner, saophones. ensemble playing. The orchestra has been presented on such school programs as the Senior play, the Christmas pageant, the Parents’ Night program and commencement. On April 6th, assisted by the Glee Club, the orchestra presented a concert, consisting of groups of selections by the entire organization, ensemble numbers and solos by advanced members. The violin ensemble, an innovation this year, has proved of value. This group of twelve of the more advanced violinists played selections at the Christmas program, a Masonic party, and the concert. —30— BAND Left to right—front row: Donald Fris-bee, baritone; Jack Stower, trombone; James Bell, trombone; Lena Miller, drums; Ken-dis Wold, drums; Geraldine Wold, drums; Gordon Humes, tuba; Conrad Walburger, tuba; Mr. Howe, leader; second row; Evelyn Stewart, clarinet; Betty Reagan, clarinet; Esther Kleinsmith, clarinet; Ruth Stack, clarinet; Evelyn Bell, mellophone; Robert Pepper, mellophone; Grant Brown, sax: Jack Werner, sax; Merlin Fisk, sax; third row: Virgina Ewing, cornet; Peter Anderson, trumpet; Albertine Halvorson, trumpet; Francis Hicks, trumpet; Ralph Strong, trumpet: Frank Denny, cornet; Richard Kindle, cornet; Roland Bonds, cornet; Jack Gaines, trumpet. Those in the band not in the picture are Buster Oliver, sax; Donald Henry, clarinet; June Kenney, clarinet; John Anderson, cornet; and James Anderson, cornet. In the fall of 1933, the first Cut Bank school band was organized. The following officers were elected: President ........ Conrad Walburger Vice-President Evelyn Stewart Secretary ............. Jack Warner Treasurer Albertine Halvorson Many factors were favorable for the development of the band. Several instruments had been purchased by the school a few years before and players were already available for these. The city of Cut Bank loaned some instruments, besides purchasing a much needed mellophone. The remaining instruments were purchased by individuals. Practices are held twice and sometimes three times a week during school hours. One-fourth of a credit is given for a year’s participation. Because of these and other favorable circumstances, the band was able to make several public appearances during its first year. Peppy marches were provided at each home basketball game and also at the district tournament. In addition to this, the band played for “open house” night in Feb. and for the Presbyterian Ladies Aid program in March. Plans for spring activities included a concert program in April and participation in the Havre music festival held in May. By March the membership had reached 30. Several others had purchased instruments and were taking private lessons. —31— DEBATE Helen Peterson, Wendell Poore, Mr. Mieken, Conrad Walburger, Jessie Klein-smith. The inter-scholastic debate received a new impetus in the Cut Bank High School when we joined the State Debating league in 1931. Under the control of this league the official state champion was decided each year. We have been members of the league every year since, and Mr. Mieken has been our sponsor. We have taken part in several debates outside of the league. In 1932 we had some very fine debaters on our team and they worked hard to gain honor for Cut Bank High, and not unsucessful in their attempt. These were Seldon Frisbee, Phyllis Pepper, Robert Dial and Harold Johnston. Last year, Seldon, Robert, and Phyllis were not with us but Georgia Lee Cox, Joyce Berger and Conrad Walburger proved to be very efficient. They were ‘‘tried but not found wanting.” This year about 12 tried out for the teams and the following were given places: Conrad Walburger ............. ’35 Wendell Poore ................ 34 Helen Peterson ................’34 Jessie Kleinsmith .............’34 Evelyn Bell ...................’34 Robert Reagan .................’34 Donald Frisbee ................’37 Irvin Teterud .................’37 FORENSIC In the early part of January, 1934, the Forensic Society was organized. The purpose of this society is to encourage public speaking, debate, dramatics, and other forms of forensic activity in Cut Bank High School, and to recognize participation in such activities. The charter members were: Conrad Walburger, Wendell Poore, Eunice Allison, Doris Fee, Madeline Crawford, Leo Ray, Verla Erickson, Robert Reagan and Helen Peterson with Mr. Misken as their sponsor. Later on Jessie Kleinsmith and Evelyn Bell received enough points to become members. To enter this society twenty points are required. A certain number of points are given for participation in each of the following: interscholastic and inter-squad de- bate, extemporaneous speeches, oration, declamation, tryouts for the latter, plays, assembly programs and readings or speeches given before the public. The number of points vary from twenty given in interscholastic debates and extemporaneous contests, to five given for one-act plays, tryouts, or assembly programs. At the first meeting an election of officers was held, in which Conrad Walburger was elected president and Doris Fee was elected secretary-treasurer. As an emblem of this society a pin has been decided upon. But it has not been decided at this writing what the exact inscribing will be. A constitution has been drawn up stating purpose, requirements for membershop, activities which receive points, the emblem and the duties of the society and its members. We hope this society will remain in the years to come and that the members will strive to make it a society for their good and for the good of Cut Bank High School. —32— THE LIVE WIRE STAFF l Seated, reading from left to right: Doris Fee, Wendell Poore; first row: Georgia Nar-ducci, Evelyn Stewart, Jessie Kliensmith, Ruth Warde, Helen Peterson, Evelyn Bell; second row: Mr. Micken, advisor, Lloyd Johnson, Irvin Teterud, Ray Johnson, James Miller, Miss Baxter, advisor. In 1920 the students of Cut Bank High School decided it was time to establish a school paper. After considerable discussion, the title “Live Wire” was decided upon although many advocated the name “Owl.” The name having been definitely settled, methods were discussed for selecting a heading. Finally a contest was started in the course of which five very artistic headings were submitted. The winning cut was the one still to be seen on our paper. Dorothy Barnard, its originator, was awarded a cash prize for designing it. For about a year the paper was mimeographed and published in booklet form, but in 1921 arrangements were made to have it printed at the Pioneer Press office. For two years the Live Wire was a full-fledged printed news sheet, and received honorable mention in the Northwestern Scholastic Press Association. At that time, regular advertisements were run and the paper received its income from that source. Soon, however, the paper went back to the mimeographed form, and after considerable struggle, during which the Live Wire was actually discontinued, the present shape and size was evolved. In the past four years the Live Wire has been more or less reorganized. One-fourth credit is now given to all members of the staff, and special reporters are elected annually for each class. More art work and more illustration has been an aim, while the paper has been removed from the essay magazine class. It is now strictly a newspaper with headlining and news featuring. Purely literary writing is given a place, but is no longer the main matter of the paper. Each activity is given its deserved emphasis, and this includes actual classroom work. Our column, Classroom Comment, dealing with the news of the various classrooms has been copied by several papers on our exchange list. In keeping up with the increased enrollment and the additional activity the paper has been enlarged this year to six pages and definite column headings are another new feature. In regard to editorials, it has become a Live Wire policy to print only editorials of a timely nature which apply to actual elements in the life of our students—things which our students want to read. We have avoided all topics too general or too trite to hold the reader’s interest. In order to keep in touch with the publications of other staffs the Live Wire maintains an exchange list representing 15 schools, large and small, scattered throughout Montana. -33— —34— SENIOR PLAY The Senior Class presented their play “The Whole Town’s Talking” to a large audience on December 9, 1933. It was a very humorous three act farce. The story takes place in a little town in Ohio and at the opening, Mr. and Mrs. Simmons, a middle-aged couple, are awaiting the arrival of their only daughter, Ethel, who has been in Chicago studying music. When she arives, she is acocmpanied by Mr. Roger Shields—a young man from Chicago and Paris. Roger struts around with much bowing and scraping and hand-kissing and here and there a dash of French. Of course Mrs. Simons thinks he is just “too divine!” But the old man doesn’t, so he chooses his partner, Chet Binney, to be the light of Ethel’s life. Chet scarcely knows what to wear, or do, or say. In fact, as a lover, he would make a first class blacksmith. Ethel prefers someone who has “sowed some wild oats” until she hears about the love affair with a movie actress, created for the occasion, by Simmons and Binney to stimulate interest. Soon “The Whole Town’s Talking” and all the girls are simply cr-ra-a-zy about Chester. However, the plot gets thicker and thicker with Miss Lythe ariving in Sandusky to make a personal appearance, acompanied by Donald Swift, her prize-fighter fiance, who thinks it best to kill Binney. Poor Chet is continually in hot water trying to make Ethel believe he has sewn wild oats and to save himself from Donald’s uncontrollable temper. The complicated affair is, of course, eventually unravelled after a bloody fight in the dark in which Donald Swift and his friend Roger Shields nearly kill each other beating up Binney who cheers and moans from his ring-side seat high up on the mantel. Eunice, as Sadie Bloom, added a touch of Mae West, and Kendis with her lithping had the whole cast talking goofy at times. The play was a great success dramatically and financially, the gate receipts being the largest in several years. Miss Baxter, who directed the play, deserves much credit.

She’s A Man” was given by the Seniors April 22, 1933. The play was a huge sucess. Miss Baxter did a good job picking out the cast and sponsoring the play. Much of the credit goes to the students not in the play. Their splendid co-operation contributed much to the success of it. The play consisted of one act which contained two scenes. In the first scene Sam and Dai are quarreling and at the end of the scene Dai, who is still angry, leaves Sam. The second scene takes place in the apartment of Sam and Jaz who are close friends. Mrs. Tiny Atwill was an Irish widow who cooked and cleaned house for the two boys. The plot in the second scene was mistaken identity. All the characters knew there was supposed to be a man dressed as a woman and each suspected the other. In the end they discovered the would-be woman was not even present. The play ended happily and contained much humor. The cast of the play is as follows: Daisy Sanford (Dai) Letha Teeple; Sam Turner, Charles Thompson; Jasper Colton (Jaz) friend of Sam’s, Marvin Vasboe; Philip Dawson (Phil) friend of Jaz’s who volunteered to disguise as a woman, Wendell Poore; Mrs. Tiny Atwill, Irish widow woman, Florence Gurney; Phyllis Dalton, friend of Dai’s, Georgia Narducci; Robert Davis, an uncle from Alaska, Robert Reagan. JUNIOR PROM After much planning and work, we the Junior class of last year gave our prom, which was a huge success. We transformed the gymnasium into a Japanese garden with wistaria, cherry blossoms, parasols and lanterns in profusion and the entire gym was enclosed in pastel colors. Also on all sides of the floor, divans, arm chairs, and lamps were used. In the center of the gym ceiling was attached one large balloon which contained one hundred small balloons. This was broken and distributed among the dancers later in the evening. The punch girls were Dorothy Sever and Marina Narducci, who were dressed in Japanese pajamas and slippers and large pom-poms were worn in their hair, completing a very effective scene. The date of the prom was April 5, 1933 and it was very well attended. The music was furnished by A1 Brubaker and his orchestra. The admission was 75 cents per couple—the proceeds went to our class fund. GLEE CLUB First row, left to right: Lloyd Johnston, Merle Magee, Leo Ray, Eugene Simpson, Clifford Teterud, Leo Zuelke.
