Se+u i GIgAA, eJlat uf, Sixty-five eager greenhorns entered Cut Bank high school in 1939. Their first activity was the Frosh initiation and dance which was given by the Sophomores. As Frosh we elected Buddy Arras, President; Dan Poore, Vice President; Maxine Olsen, Secretary and Treasurer; Ruthie Nickeson, Reporter. Miss Millspaugh and Robert Taylor were the class sponsors. In October we gave the annual return party at which an unusually nice floor show was presented. In November we gave an assembly program which was in the form of an amateur hour. Contestants were Wanda Van Alstine, Ena Robinson, Lyle Gunderson, Edna Brandvold, Jean Warner, and Roy Zuelke. Two members of our class turned out for football: Jerry Gertzen and Clarence Sleepy Koontz, but due to inexperience they did not make the first squad. A large number of our class turned out for basketball and Bill Henderson made the first squad in the latter part of the season. Beginning our Sophomore year we administered the initiation to our successors. As Sophomores we elected Dan Poore, President; Kenny Dahlquist, Vice President; Jean Warner, Secretary and Treasurer and Gerald Goldrick, Class Reporter. Several of the Sophomore boys went out for sports this year and five of them received letters. Several Sophomores also were awarded leads in the operetta and many were in the chorus. Here we are, mighty upper-classmen, and ready for a year of hard work. We selected our class officers which are as follows: Dewey Harris, President; Ruth Nickeson, Vice President; Clarence Koontz, Secretary; and Ena Robinson, Treasurer. We now have eleven members in the C club. Our Junior play went off in a big way. It was a comic production and the cast chosen was very appropriate. The name of the play was Don't Take My Penny which was directed by Mr. Speich and assisted by Miss Stufft. At last the great day came when we were Seniors. This year we gave the play Foot Loose directed by Mr. Speich and assisted by Miss Stufft. Seniors were active in all sports this year and several Seniors had leads in the operetta, Who Discovered America? And now, as we write this we look forward to graduation with excitement and yet with a heavy heart at the thought of leaving our friends in C. B. H. S. I 19 I
