Senior Class History Early in the fall of 1935 we entered the high school as extremely green freshmen. To become full fledged members of the high school we were initiated as freshmen. We gave a return party in “appreciation’ for the “courtesy” extended to us during the initiation, and afterward spent the rest of the year in peace. Our sponsor was lr. Taylor; our president. Harold Oien. When we returned to school the fall of 1936 we entered the new high school as its first sophomore class, and were content to preserve our strength that year for our next year’s activities. Mr. Taylor also sponsored us that year and our president was Joe Danens. Upon entering the fall of 1937 we were delightfully surprised to discover that we were now upper-classmen. We took a great interest in school activities and sponsored a very successful Junior Play, “The Ready Made Family.” Our largest program was the Junior Promenade for which the gymnasium was decorated with pine trees and spider webs of crepe paper. Our class officers for that year were: Fred Hughes. President; Lena Chasse, Vice President; Marjorie Williams. Secretary-Treasurer. Our sponsors were Miss Krogness and Mr. Taylor. As seniors we entered school in 1938, happy in the knowledge that that year our efforts would be rewarded with the long sought diploma. Among our greatest achievements for this.year the Senior Class Play, Girl Shy.” the Live Wire, and this, our annual. This year we elected Leonard Pistoria president of our class; Lloyd McClanahan became our vice president and Hetty Linder secretary-treasurer. Our senior boys became the winners of the interclass basketball tournament and two senior girls who were able to win a letter last year received the gold star in the Girls’ Athletic Association. We are now looking forward to graduation. This will be the most important and happy event in our high school career, and yet it will not be without a few tears of regret upon leaving our grand high school, our school friends and teachers. There have been many struggles and difficulties but now that they are over we feel that they have only added more to our experience and memories. As we are leaving all of these we shall always remember the happy, carefree days at Cut Bank High School. May we here express our appreciation and gratitude to Mr. Keyes, and Mr. Davis, our sponsors, for the loyal guidance and encouragement they have given us. the Class of 1939. JUNIOR PROM OF 1938 Last year the class of ’39. then the Juniors, strived to achieve an entirely different theme for their Prom. They attained this by representing a garden in which were cobwebs, and overhead was one large web with a mammoth spider, the daddy of them all. in the center. The orchestra pit was an enclosed corner of the garden surrounded by trees and flowers. Punch was served by two of the eighth grade girls who were dressed as Little Miss Muffets. The punch stand was in the shape of a well and partially hidden by trees. Miss Krogness and Mr. Taylor sponsored the preparation of the Prom and helped the Juniors plan and decorate the gymnasium.
