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—
