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—

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—

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—
