Taylor Commercial and Basket Bali University of Montana Agnes Kkogness Home Economics B. S. Montana State College Vision plays an important part in the life of every man. The man who not only looks aheao, but SEES AS HUMAN NATURE ALLOWS, INTO THE FUTURE, AND SEEING, SEES THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT HAVE BEEN MISSED BY OTHER MEN ENGROSSED IN THE PETTY DETAILS OF LIFE, HAS VISION. Vision goes hand in hano with success, for it IS THE BEACON LIGHT LEADING ON THROUGH THE MAZECF COMMON ORDEALS TO THE BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS OF LIFE. The spirit of SERVICE, THE- SYMPATHETIC UNDERSTANDING OF OTHERS, THE EARNEST ENDEAVOR TO DELIVER JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN IS EXPECTED—THESE ARE THE PRODUCTS OF VISION. WITH THE BEACON LIGHT OF VISION MAY BE SEEN THE PEAKS OF OPPORTUNITIES, ACROSS THE GULF OF COMMON ORDEALS. HE SPIRIT MUST EVER BE HELD TOWARDS IT. THIS LOOKING OUT AND RECOGNIZING IS CALLED VISION. IT IS VISION WHEN A MAN STRAIGHTENS HIS SHOULDERS TO LOOK ABOVE THE COMMON THINGS OF LIFE AND DISCOVER THE UNNOTICED . Some call it luck—yes, luck through VISION. Vision is like a guiding star—never touched; YET LIKE THE STAR OF THE SEA, MEN FOLLOW JIT ACROSS THE VAST DEEP OF LIFE, AND LIKE THE MARINER OFTHE SEA, THE MARINER OF LIFE STEERS TOWARDS IT AND THE DESTINATION IS REACHED. -37- -lO- i LzuOfyiM zjs Delores Poynter-President Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow WE GRADUATE.

They faced the FUTURE CONFIDENTLY, NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS IN STORE FOR THEM. After a few weeks our enthusiasm was dampened BY THE INITIATION, BUT WE SHOWED THE UPPERCLASSMEN THAT WE HELD NO HARD FEELINGS TOWARD THEM FOR THE TREATMENT THEY GAVE US, BY SPONSORING a return party.” From that time on, we began TO TAKE AN INTEREST IN SCHOOL ACTIVITIES. The class officers were: President—Irvin Teterud, Vice President—Florine Stewart, Secretary—Margaret Michaels, Treasurer — Murray Williamson. OURING THE FIRST YEAR, Mr . MlCKEN ORGANIZED a boy's basketball team. Murray Williamson was THE ONLY ONE TO MAKE THE FIRST SQUA0 THAT YEAR. Several members of the class tried out for debate.

Hobgoblin House given December 4th, in the high SCHOOL GYMNASIUM. A GREAT PART OF THE SUCCESS OF THE PLAY WAS DUE TO THE UNUSUAL SOUND AND LIGHTING EFFECTS. The play was presented by a very fine cast; ALL MEMBERS PORTRAYING THEIR PARTS UNUSUALLY WELL. Donald Frisbee, taking the part of Darius Krupp, maoe a convincing character as a gangster, POSING AS THE CARETAKER OF HOBGOBLIN HOUSE. Marjorie Clark did her usual fine work in the p rt of Aunt Pricilla, owner of the haunted house. Delores Poynter and Betty Reagan, as neices of Aunt Prissy, aooed the love problem to the PLOT BY TRYING TO OONVINCE THEIR AUNT THAT MERVIN Dahlen and Jack Warner, the two oashing young HEROES, WERE NOT FORTUNE-HUNTERS BUT TRUSTWORTHY YOUNG MEN AND SUITABLE HUSBANDS. Elsie Flaget saved the day by outwitting the gangsters and saving the lives of her frienos. Comedy was cleverly adoed to the play by the TWO NEGRO SERVANTS, ERNIE TETERUD AND EVELYN Bennett, who kept the audience in an uproar by their funny antics. Fine work was done by Jasper Davis, as Bluebeard Bronson, who acted as the crazy lunatic and MURDERER OF HIS WIFE, BUT WHO WAS, IN REALITY A Chicago kidnaper. Murray Williamson, another gangster in league with Krupp and Bluebeard made a fine showing in pretending to be a guard from the state insane asylum. The-Heaoless Phantom, which terrorized j_ WHO SAW IT, PROVEO TO BE NONE OTHER THAN A Kl 0 napeo Chicago heiress, Ruth Sines. The play was directed by Mr. Horsley with the aid of Lena Miller, stage manager; John Lewis, LeRoy Rush, and Don Ralston, stage carpenter.' We, the Seniors of the Cut Bank High School BEING IN FULL POSSESSION OF A SOUND MIND, UNDERSTANDING ANO MEMORY, AND ACTING ON OUR OWN ACCORD, DO MAKE, PUBLISH, AND PLACE BEFORE YOU OUR LATEST WILL AND TESTAMENT! To Mr. Davis, our esteemed superintendent WE BEQUEATH THE ASSURANCE THAT HIS HELPFUL GUIDANCE AND PATIENCE THROUGHOUT OUR SCHOOL YEARS WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN. TO THE TRIED, TESTEO, AND PROVEO FACULTY WE LEAVE OUR KINDEST REGARDS. We leave to the school in general the well- TROOOEN PATH OF HIGH SCHOOL LEARNING FROM WHICH WE ARE TURNING TO BROAOER FIELOS. We also BEQUEATH THE FOLLOWING POSSESSIONS, SEPARATELY, AND INDIVIDUALLY. There isn't everyone who has a gift of gab SO WITH GREAT GENEROSITY, MARJORIE CLARK WILLS HER GIFT TO SHANNIE WILLIAMSON.

Donald Thorburn wills his intense love for ORATIONS TO EVA WILSON. Meryle Teteruo wills her red hair to James Mattson so that he may light his cigarettes more EASILY. Ruth Sines wills her medals in football AND BASKETBALL TO ESTHER JACOBSON. Irvin Teteruo wills his artistic learning to Doris Moorhead, just so that you do not practice on the walls of the washroom, Doris, with eyebrow pencil or lipstick. Effie Newman wills her soft voice, also HER REAOY SMILE, TO BURL COBB. Lena Miller wills her coquettish air ano agreeable personality to Margaret Keisser. Florence McDonald wills her ambition to Bernice Gill, if you don't need it pass it on. Lillian Lofberg wills her high pinnacle EXCURSIONS TO JlMMY WlLLI All.SON .

Elsie Flaget wills her laughing eyes to Merlin Fisk. It is the last request of the class of '37, THAT THE HEIRS MENTIONED ABOVE USE TO THE BEST POSSIBLE ADVANTAGE, THE TALENTS AND WORLDLY POSSESSIONS PLACED AT THEIR DISPOSAL.

This class entered the Cut Bank High School and assumed the name of Freshies . Early in the school year we underwent the official ACTS AND MEASURES AND BECAME FULL FLEDGED MEMBERS OF THE STUDENT BODY. AS A MATTER OF CUSTOM WE PRESENTED AN EVENING OF ENTERTAINMENT TO THE UPPERCLASSMEN AND ALUMNI IN RETURN FOR THEIR INITIATION. THE REST OF THE YEAR WAS SPENT IN PEACE UNDER THE DIRECTION OF OUR ABLE OFFICERS AND SPONSOR, MlSS PHILIPPS. The succeeding year found that we hao dis CARDED THE NAME FRESHIE AND HAO ACQUIRED SOPHOMORE STANDING. AS SOPHOMORES WE TOOK GIGANTIC STRIDES TOWARD RECOGNITION IN THE SCHOLASTIC AND ATHLETIC FIELDS. OUR FAIR SEX BECAME GUARDIAN OF THE GIRLS' INTERCLASS BASKETBALL TROPHY. SEVERAL OF OUR MALE MEMBEkS MADE THE FIRST TEAMS IN FOOTBALL AND BASKETBALL. COMPLETING A MOST SUCCESS- FUL YEAR, UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF JR. CORNN , WE RECEIVED THE PROMOTION TO THE RANK OF JUNIORS. Last September we receiveo the distinction of BEING THE FIRST JUNIOR CLASS TO INHABIT THE NEW High School builoing. The class entered the field of outside activities through the production of the Junior Play. Who Woulon't be Crazy a farce comeoy We, the Class of Nineteen Hunored and Thirty MEMBERS OF THE CLASS. Our biggest event was the Junior Promenade Through creative imaginations and hard word, the gymnasium floor was transformed to a grape arbor in Southern France. -------Now AS THE SCHOOL YEAR DRAWS TO A CLOSE We, the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty Eight, wish to congratulate the graduating class OF '37 AND HOPE WE MAY ESTABLISH AS OUTSTANDING A RECORD AS HAS BEEN PRECEDENTED. Who Woulon't Be Crazy was the title of the 3-act comedy farce presented by the Junior class IN THE GYMNASIUM FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 2. EVERYONE ENJOYED THE LAUGHS ANO THRILLS GIVEN THEM BY THE OCCUPANTS OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN SANITARIUM. They were as follows: Pluribus (colored baggage man) Burl Cobb. Pendie (Lois's maid) Philippa Landry. Mr. Higgins (President of Sanitarium) Gerald Berger. Jack (Speedy) Marshall—Merlin Fisk. Lois Meredith—June Oliver. Mr. Marshall—Frank Denney. Reggie Mortimer (the young shiek) James Bell. Inmate No. 1—Frantz Cox. Inmate No V 2—Roslyn Norman. Miss Lavelle (heao nurse)—Boan Kigney. Beatrice—Dorothy Judson. Marjorie—Mary Louiise Murphy. Janet—Claire Denney. Hardboiled McCafferty (tough speed cop) Bill Reiland. Evelyn Winslow—Joan Minette. Edward Gordon—(Evelyn's long lost Sweetheart) Dick Kindle. Everyone did excellent work in his part. Were WE EVER SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THAT THE THIEVES OF THE FAMOUS WlNSLOW JEWELS WERE NONE OTHER THAN Frantz Cox and Roslyn Norman. Much credit is to be given to Mr. Aahl and Miss Krogness for their untiring work and efforts IN DIRECTING the play.

To become FULL FLEDGE MEMBERS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL WE UNDERWENT THE INITIATION. MUCH TO THE SURPRISE OF OUR TORMENTORS WE SURVIVED THE ORDEAL. TO SHOW THAT WE COULD DISH IT OUT AS WELL AS TAKE IT WE GAVE A RETURN PARTY IN APPRECIATION FOR THE INITIATION. AFTER THE PARTY, WE SPENT THE REST OF THE YEAR IN PEACE. When we returned to school last fall we discovered THAT A NEW HIGH SCHOOL WAS FAVORING US BY ALLOWING US TO BECOME ITS FIRST SOPHOMORE MEMBERS. But in spite of the new school building we found THAT THE STUDIES WERE JUST AS SEVERE AS EVER. Since the activities of this class are very few, WE DID LITTLE TO GAIN SUPREMACY In ANY FIELD. AS THE SCHOOL YEAR DRAWS TO AN END, WE FIND-OURSELVES READY TO TAKE OVER THE NAME OF JUNIORS. -26- The high school faculty and students were ENTERTAINED WITH A SOPHOMORE ASSEMBLY PLAY, FRIDAY morning, March 26. Who's a Coward? was the name of the short PLAYLET, WHOSE CAST CONSISTED OF JUNIOR POPLAR as Jimmy and Marjorie Williams as Betsy, with Carlyle Webb taking the part of Dippy, the THIEF. A GREAT DEAL OF THE JOY OF LIFE CONSISTS IN DOING PERFECTLY, OR AT LEAST TO THE BEST OF ONE'S ABILITY, EVERYTHING WHICH HE ATTEMPTS TO DO. There is asense of satisfaction, a pride in surveying SUCH WORK—A WORK WHICH IS ROUNDED, FULL, EXACT, COMPLETE IN ALL ITS PARTS—WHICH THE SUPERFICIAL, MAN, WHO LEAVES HIS WORK IN A SLOVENLY, SHIPSHOD, HALF-FINISHEO CONDITION, CAN NEVER KNOW. It IS THIS CONSCIENTIOUS COMPLETENESS WHICH TURNS WORK INTO ART. THE SMALLEST THING, WELL DONE BECOMES ARTISTIC.

During the appropriation of the class SPONSORS, THE FRESHMAN CLASS RECEIVED TWO, MlSS Millspaugh and Mr. Cornn, due to our exceptional ABILITY (OR WAS BECAUSE WE WEREN'T OLD ENOUGH) Most of our spunk was soon extracted by the initiation THAT WAS ADMINISTERED TO US BY THE UPPERCLASSMAN. We survived the ordeal with no lasting EFFECTS. To SHOW OUR APPRECIATION FOR THE INITIATION THAT WAS HELD FOR OUR BENEFIT, WE RESPONDED BY GIVING A RETURN PARTY FOR THE UPPERCLASSMEN. AT THIS PARTY WE LEARNED HOW TO DANCE AND OH Boy! WAS IT FUN. WE ARE CERTAIN THAT EVERYBODY HAD A GOOD TIME—AT LEAST WE OID. WE LIVED IN PEACE THE REST OF THE YEAR. WE LEARNED MANY THINGS THIS YEAR, NOT FROM OUR BOOKS, BUT FROM THE SOPHOMORES. SOME OF THE HABITS WE ACQUIRED WERE: PUTTING THUMB TACKS ON SEATS, CHEWING GUM QUIETLY, AND TO SLEEP WITHOUT SNORING. YES SIR, EDUCATION IS A GREAT THING'. AS VACATION DAWNS UPON THE HORIZON WE BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE C0ME T0 THE P0,NT WHERE WE ACT MORE AS ADULTS, AND SHALL BE VERY CAPABLE IN TAKING OVER THE JOB AS SOPHOMORES THE COMING YEAR. -30- Hettie Beoard Evelyn Bennett Pepper Clark Mervin Dahlen Jasper Davis Elsie Placet Don Frisbee Betty Gjertson Joe Kapp John Lewis Sally Lewis Lillian Lofberg Florence McOonald Margaret Michaels Lena Miller Eff ie Newman Wilma Powell Delores Poynter Betty Reagan Ruth Sines Don Thorburn Meryle Teteruo Ernie Teteruo Jack Warner Malcolm Warburg Doris Wilcox Murray Williamson James Fleming Worthington Dave Wei land CONRAO ZUELKE A GOOD TIME SOMETHING TO EAT AN AUDIENCE A NEW FACE DANCING LESSONS SOMEONE TO LOVE HER A PH.

THEY DECIDED TO CALL THE PAPER THE LIVE WIRE, WHICH IS ITS PRESENT NAME. AT THAT TIME THE PAPER WAS MIMEOGRAPHED AND WAS ALMOST ENTIRELY ESSAY IN FORM. IT MIGHT BE SAIO THAT THE SCHOOL PAPER WAS MORE OF A LITERARY JOURNAL THAN A NEWSPAPER. For a number of years it was continued as a mimeographed paper, but was discontinued for two OR THREE YEARS. WHEN IT RESUMEO PUBLICATION IT WAS MORE LIKE THE PRESENT FORM ONLY MIMEOGRAPHED. For two years, the paper was printed, but WAS DISCONTINUED BECAUSE THEY FELT THAT THEIR SCHOOL WAS NOT LARGE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT AND PUBLISH IT. This year they are again having a printed paper. They feel that thf school is now large ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT WO PUBLISH IT. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT ADVANCEMENT IN THE PAPER AND IF IT CONTINUES TO GROW IN THE FUTURE AS IT HAS IN THE PAST IT WILL SOON DEVELOP INTO ONE OF THE BEST HIGH SCHOOL PAPERS. The school paper is of value in that it promotes SCHOOL SPIRIT, INTEREST, ORIGINALITY AND RESPONSIBILITY. IT IS A MEDIUM THROUGH WHICH ALL MAY EXPRESS THEIR IDEAS, FOR CONTRIBUTIONS FROM STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED. IT HAS BEEN THE POLICY TO OEOICATE MOST OF THE SPACE TO THE SCHOOL ACTIVITIES ANO TO THE ARTICLES CONCERNING THE VARIOUS SCHOOL ACTIVITIES, SPORTS AND NEWS OF THE DIFFERENT CLASSES. This year the school paper has tried to give TO THE STUDENTS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL THE ARTICLES them. The AC- ARE WRITTEN UP AND ALL OF THE ITS ONE The THAT WOULD BE OF MOST INTEREST TO THEM. TIVITIES THAT THEY PARTICIPATE IN ARE WRITTEN SO AS TO BE INTERESTING TO TH OTHER STUDENTS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL. The paper this year is a four page printeo news sheet. Regular advertisements are run and he PAPER RECEIVES ITS INCOME FROM THAT SOURCE. THE PAPER IS STRICTLY OF THE NEWSPAPER TYPE WITH HEADLINES AND NEWS. The staff of the Live Wire receives FOURTH CREDIT FOR THEIR WORK ON THE PAPER. STAFF CONSISTS OF THE EOI TOR-IN-CHIEF,ASS ISTANT EDITOR, BUSINESS MANAGER, CIRCULATION MANAGER, ADVERTISEMENT MANAGER, CLASSROOM REPORTER,. ILMCR, MUSIC, SOCIETY AND NEWS REPORTERS, ANO THE FOUR REPORTERS ADD A GREAT DEAL OF LIFE TO THE PAPER. These reporters write up all the humorous happenings AROUND THE SCHOOL OF INTEREST TO THE PUPILS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL. The paper is still published only once a MONTH, BUT IS MUCH LARGER. It has become a Live Wire policy to print EOI TOR IALS OF A TIMELY NATURE WHICH APPLY TO ACTUAL ELEMENTS IN THE LIFE OF OUR STUDENT—THINGS WHICH OUR STUDENTS WANT TO READ. WE HAVE AVOIDED ALL TOPICS TOO GENERAL OR TOO TRITE TO HOLO A reaoer's interest. In oroer to keep in touch WITH THE PUBLICATIONS OF OTHER STAFFS THE LIVE Wire maintains an exchange of list representing A LARGE NUMBER OF SCHOOLS, LARGE AND SMALL, THAT ARE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT MONTANA. 37 -34- Eoitor-in-Chief, Jack Warner Ass.

Previous to this time debate had been carried on AS AN INTER-SCHOLASTIC ACTIVITY. WITH THE JOINING of the State Debate League came a new impetus TO WORK HARDER AND BRING HONOR TO OUR SCHOOL. THE DEBATE LEAGUE EACH YEAR SELECTS A STATE CHAMPION. This was the goal we worked toward. We have worked HARD AND HAVE NOT BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN OUR EFFORTS. WE WERE RATHER UNFORTUNATE HOWEVER IN HAVING A QUARRANTINE BLOCK OUR DEBATE EFFORTS IN 1936. Each year we have had several outside de- bates WITH DIFFERENT SCHOOLS AND AT THE END OF EACH SEASON HAVE ATTENDEO THE STATE DEBATE TOURNEY. We have been very fortunate in having able COACHES AND ADVISERS. Mr. MlCKEN WAS OUT ADVISER AND COACH UNTIL 1936 WHEN Mr. HORSLEY TOOK UP THE GUIOING REIN. Because neighboring towns had no debate teams IT WAS POSSIBLE TO SCHEDULE ONLY TWO PRE-TOURNAMENT OEBATES, BOTH WITH GREAT FALLS, AT THE DISTRICT TOURNAMENT AT GREAT FALLS APRIL 22, 23. LEWIS AND Davis defeated the Lewistown team and tied for the THIRD PLACE. 39 S (yc rulct Jim Bell, Merlin Fisk, Mr. Horsley, Don Frisbee, Irvin Teterud Evelyn Bennett, Pepper Clark, Mervin Dahlen, Jasper Davis Betty Gjertson, Joe Kapp, John Lewis, June Oliver Betty Reagan, Ruth Sines, Jack Warner, Jim Worthington, Conrad Zuelke The Forensic Society is comparatively new.

When everyone's mi no was on thoughts or Spring ano outdoor life, we oecioeo to keep in the same mood. Several Junior boys went to the park and BROUGHT BACK A LOAD OF EVERGREEN TREES. THEN FOR A WEEK WE LABORED EVERY NIGHT—HANGING CREPE PAPER STREAMERS, FASTENING UP TREES AND OOING NUMEROUS OTHER JOBS. And on May 15, the night of the prom, we WATCHED WITH GREAT SATISFACTION THE LOOKS OF SURPRISE AND PLEASURE ON THE FACES OF OUR GUESTS AS THEY VIEWEO FOR THE FIRST TIME OUR WORK—A GYPSY SCENE. THERE WERE THE TWO PUNCH GIRLS, DRESSED IN THEIR GYPSY COSTUMES SERVING PUNCH OUT OF A KETTLE HUNG OVER A CRACKLING CAMPFIRE. There were the musicians back in their woodland RETREAT. ACROSS THE FLOOR DANCED THE DANCERS IN THEIR LONG FORMAL DRESSES OF ALL COLORS. OVER THEIR HEADS TWINKLED A MULTITUDE OF STARS AND A BIG YELLOW MOON. WHILE ON EVERY SIDE COULD BE SEEN THE MIGHTY TREES OF THE FOREST. CERTAINLY IT WAS A GYPSY PARAOISE. The PROM WAS a program dance, and everyone WAS PROVIDED WITH A SMALL DANCE CARO AND PENCIL. Jim Worthington ano Marjorie Williams led the Grand March, which made a very beautiful ano PICTURESQUE SCENE AS THE LONG FILE OF DANCERS WALKED SLOWLY AROUND THE ROOM. COLOREO LIGWS FASTENED TO A PAPER LATTICE-WORK CEILING, WHICH REPRESENTED THE STARS, WERE TURNED ON AND TRANSFORMED THE LONG DRESSES INTO A MULTITUDE OF CHANGING COLORS, WHICH WAS QUITE IN KEEPING WITH THE GYPSY SCENE. Specials of the evening entertainment consisted OF A GYPSY SONG SANG BY DELORES POYNTER and Ruth Sines: a solo by Mr. Mickcn, and a gypsy dance by four junior high girls. Everyone hao a very enjoyable evening ano WE WERE WELL REWARDED FOR OUR WORK. The prom given by the Juniors for the graduation CLASS OF THIS YEAR, PROVED TO BE ONE OF THE LEADING EVENTS ON THE SCHOOL'S SOCIAL CALENDAR. It was given on Friday, May 14th and as over a HUNDRED INVITATIONS WERE ISSUED, A LARGE CROWD ATTENDED IT. The auditorium was beautifully decorated with the idea of a grapevine arbor carried throughout. A white lattice fence with grapevines AND PURPLE BALLOONS HANGING IN CLUSTERS MAOC A VERY GOOO REPETITION OF AN ARBOR. Besides dancing, the evening's entertainment INCLUOED A FLOOR SHOW GIVEN BY LOCAL TALENT Punch was also served in the course of the evening. Credit must be given the Junior Class and THEIR ADVISORS, MlSS KROGNESS, AND Mr. AAHL, FOR A VERY SUCCESSFUL PROM AND AN EVENING OF UTMOST ENJOYMENT TO ALL. EVERYONE ENJOYED THEMSELVES IMMENSELY AND CONSIDERED THE PROM AS ONE OF THE BEST GIVEN. A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT COMMITTEES IN PREPARING FOR THE EVENING OF Among these were the decoration ENTERTAINMENT, LIGHTING, INVITATIONS, FLOOR SHOW ANO PUNCH COMMITTEE. THE MEMBERS OF THESE COMMITTEES ANO ALL OTHER JUNIORS, WHO TOOK PART IN THE WORK MAY HAVE THE SATISFACTION OF KNOWING THAT THEIR PROM WAS A SUCCESSFUL ONE. There were THAT TOOK PART ENTERTAINMENT.

IT EMBRACES THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL METHOO OF EDUCATION THAT IS EARNING BY A COMBINATION OF SEEING, HEARING, THINKING, AND DOING. Industrial Arts particularly provides avenues OF SELF-EXPRESSION. IT PROVIDES SOCIALLY DESIRABLE FREE TIME EXPERIENCES IN AVOCATIONS. DUE TO THE VARIETY OF MATERIALS AVAILABLE IT MAKES THE APPEAL A BROAD ONE. Industrial Arts adds to the culture and home, AND OTHER SATISFACTION WHEN THE CONSUMER—APPRECIATION Aspect is emphasized. To appreciate demand AND CONSUMER PRODUCTS OF CRAFTS AND INDUSTRIES UPON THE BASIS OF EXCELLENT MATERIALS WORKMANSHIP AND STRUCTURAL AND AESTHETIC DESIGN PROVIDES CULTURAL SATISFACTION FOR THE CONSUMERS Wl TH MORE AND BETTER PRODUCTION FOR THE WORKERS. Our stuoents shortly become workers and leaders in society. Trade and Industrial life now DOMINATE THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL LIFE OF THE NATION. ONE HALF OR MORE OF ALL THE BOYS AND GIRLS WILL BE GAINFULLY EMPLOYED; WILL WORK IN 'THE TRADES AND INDUSTRIES. In our new school we have addeo the Industrial Arts Department. This year the 8t-h grade HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE GENERAL SHOP WHILE THE HIGH SCHOOL STUOENTS WERE OFFERED WOODWORK AND MECHANICAL DRAWING. NEW COURSES MAY BE ADDED A8 THE DEMAND IS CREATED. Our shop is well equipped with hand tools OF THE BEST MAKE. IN ADDITION TO THIS WE HAVE AN ELECTRIC SANDER AND A 30 INCH BAND SAW. IN OUR THREE CLASS ROOMS WE HAVE OVER 3000 SQUARE FEET OF FLOOR SPACE. This year the stuoents from the Industrial Arts Department organized the Industrial Arts Society. The following were elected officers FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR: PRESIDENT—ERNIE TETERUD; Vice President-Loyd McClanahan; Secretary-Meryle Teterud; Treasurer-Bill Reiland; Sargeant-at-arm s James Money. At our meetings we had several motion pictures of Industrial Activities. We also attempted TO GET SPEAKERS REPRESENTING THE VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY. CLASS REPORTS ON SHOP PRACTICES WERE GIVEN. Next year we plan to be able to interest the STUDENTS IN HOME WORK SHOPS. IF INTEREST IS CREATEO THE STUDENT WILL WANT HIS OWN SHOP AND IN THIS WAY WILL BE ABLE TO UTILIZE HIS LEISURE TIME TO THE BEST ADVANTAGE AND AT THE SAME TIME BE LEARNING A HOBBY OR AN AVOCATION.

The tackles rebuff your plunges, The ends seem as swift as light; You're starting to doubt your power-right THEN IS THE TIME TO FIGHT! You feel that you're shot to pieces, But some day, my boy, you'll know, That the battles of life, like in football, Are won by the final blow. The ones who have hit you the hardest Are as weakened, my boy, as you. So this fight must come down to courage, The last final drop or two. So BUCK UP YOUR HEART, OLD FELLOW, Tho' all the Heavens may fall, And give 'em that heart-core wallop— The weakest yet best of all; And I'll tell you, dear boy, the heroes Who watch from their heights will say There's a boy with the last-punch courage Make way for a man, make way!

McClanahan Denney Lutz Warner J. Kittson Wolo Allen Coach Keyes Zuelke Rielano M. Kittson Cobb J. Williamson FALL OUT THE THEY The foutball season of 1936 was a very successful ONE EVEN THOUGH THE TEAM DID NOT wtN DISTRICT HONORS. When Coach Keyes called for the first PRACTICE, There WERE ONLY 25 MEN WHO TURNED FOR PRACTICE. THE AVERAGE WEIGHT OF BOTH LINE AND BACKFIELD WAS 138 POUNDS. Although they were small and light, MADE UP FOR WHAT THEY WERE LACKING IN WEIGHT BY THEIR AGGRESSIVENESS AND SPIRIT. THEIR COOPERATION AND SPIRIT, BOTH IN PRACTICE AND WHILE IN PLAYING A GAME WAS THE MAIN REASON WHY THEY WERE ABLE TO WIN TWO GAMES, TIE TWO, AND LOSE TWO. One game lost was to a strong Whitefish team who has an A Class standing. The Wolves took second-place honors in the Sub-district football division. The initial game of the season was with a STRONG ALUMNI TEAM. THE TEAM WAS NOT IN THE BEST OF CONDITION BUT WERE ABLE TO HOLD THE ALUMNI TO A TIE. THE SCORE WAS 0-0. The next game, the Wolves' first scrimmage WITH A FOREIGN TEAM, WAS WITH WhITEFISH A STRONG CLASS A FOOTBALL TEAM. ALTHOUGH THE SCORE WAS 33-0 in favor of Whitefish, the Wolves never GAVE UP AT ANY TIME AND DISPLAYED SOME FANCY FOOTBALL PLAYING. Conrad, Great Falls B., and Browning were the Wolves' next foes. They downed Conrad by a 33-0 score; tied Great Falls B., 6-6; defeated Browning by a 33-0 score. Davi s McCarter Tough Alli$on Thorburn Money M. Williamson In the last game of the year the Wolves' played the Shelby Coyotes for district honors. Shelby scoreo their seven points the first quarter AND IT LOOKED LIKE DEFEAT FOR THE WOLVES BECAUSE IT SOON STARTEO A OOWN POUR OF RAIN AND THE FIELD BECAME VERY SLOPPY AND MUDDY. BUT THE DO-OR-OIE SPIRIT KEPT THE WOLVES IN RUNNING AND IN THE LAST QUARTER MADE A TOUCH DOWN BUT WERE UNABLE TO PUSH OVER THE EXTRA POINT. Graduating from the squad of '36 are five seniors’ Don Thorburn, Jack Warner, Conrad Zuelke, Jasper Davis, and Murray Williamson, but WITH MORE MEMBERS ELIGIBLE FOR THE SQUAD OF '37 THE TEAM OUGHT TO GO PLACES THIS FALL. LETTERMEN EARNING THEIR LETTERS IN FOOTBALL for 1936 are: Jack Warner, (Capt.), Lutz, Jimmy Williamson, M.

Cut Bank won the Northern Class B basketball championship at Havre and then traveleo to the state tournament at Great Falls and won the state Class B championship. The Wolves got off to a good start by defeating the Browning Indians by a wide margin. Next game was lost to the alumni, the reserves DOING MOST OF THE PLAYING IN THIS GAME. GREAT Falls last years All-State Basketball Champions WERE THE NEXT TO FALL BEFORE THE ON-SLOUGHT OF the Wolves. The Alumni and the Independent team' WERE EASILY DEFEATEO BY THE WOLVES. The Wolves then traveled to Brady and easily DEFEATED THEM. SHELBY, BROWNING, VALIER AND OlLMONT WERE THE NEXT VICTIMS OF THE WOLVES. The Wolves traveled over the mountains to ENCOUNTER THE WHITEFISH AND KALI SPELL QUINTS. They lost both games to these Class A teams; THESE TEAMS BEING THE FIRST TO DEFEAT THE WOLVES AFTER ELEVEN STRAIGHT VICTORIES. The District Tournament was held at Shelby. The FIRST NIGHT THE WOLVES DEFEATED SUNBURST, AND THEN WENT ON TO DEFEAT SHELBY AND BROWNING to win the District Championship. After a two weeks rest the Wolves traveled to Havre to play in the Northern Divisional Tournament. They oefeated Plentywood the first GAME AND WON OVER CHINOOK IN THE SEMI-FINALS. This gave them the right to play Poplar for a championship. The game between Poplar and Cut Bank was a thrilling battle but the Wolves managed TO EKE OUT A ONE POINT VICTORY TO WIN THE Northern Divisional Class B Championship. By winning the Northern Division Championship the Wolves gained the right to compete in the State Tournament at Great Falls. Here they lost to Livingston and Havre, who had too much height for the Wolves and then the Wolves defeated Rounoup for the State Class B Championship. The Cut Bank team set a record to work for THE NEXT COMING SEASON. DURING THE SEASON OF 1936-'37 no class B team defeateo the Wolves. They won from Great Falls, a class A team and lost to Havre, Livingston, Kalispell and White FISH-ALL CLASS A TEAMS. Coach Taylor loses only one member from THIS YEARS SQUAD AND IF THEY KEEP UP THEIR GOOD WORK THEY OUGHT TO REPEAT WHAT THEY DIO THIS SEASON.
