Cut Bank High School - Wolf Yearbook (Cut Bank, MT)

Text from Pages 1 - 72 of the 1947 volume:

Dedication We, the Seniors of 1947, dedicate this yearbook to our parents, whose guiding light has aided us through the most difficult years of our life, those of attaining our education. The many things, great and small, that they have done, are much too numerous to mention, but never too numerous to forget. Without this patient devotion and wise advice, we would long since have fallen by the wayside. o 3 m iiiPwwi.' mI • X l! 5 ! !«! 5 JI V'’.VA'A 'A if « Jr ■ | i‘ri 1 1 T 5-1 MiHi WWA’ 11' V 4 M 111' m' V n A' iii MR.

Prophecy All the little children opened their history books for their lesson, which happened to be on ancient history, from 1947-2047. Familiar names kept popping up through this entire century's works of progress. Of course these names were not familiar to these children of 5000 A. D., but it's a bet that you recognize them: From 1957 to 2007 Oxford University was presided over by Dr. Emil K. Petersen. In 1970 Dorothy Eide invented a new means of communication by atomic energy, which made the telephone obsolete. In 1988 a poll of ranches was taken to determine the largest, this honor was won by Mr. Robert William Smith and wife, the former toast of Broadway Bubbles Boe.

Overcash. From 1952-1972 the most famous model of all time from Paris to New York was Mary Lee Goldrick. The Nobel Peace Prize in 1975 was awarded to General LeRoy Grosser for his contribution to peace as president of the United Nations. Doris Ann Hughes, in 1971. was made the emblem of the Schools of America, because she cut down school hours from six to three. A cure for PAIN IN THE NECK, THE SCOURGE OF AMERICA, was perfected by the great surgeon D. J. Elliott in 1973. The only married couple on record to have celebrated their 100th wedding aniversary were Katie and Rosser Fisher. This anniversary occurred in 2052. The discoverer of Fountain of Youth Cream, the cream that never lets you down, was Adeline McIntyre, the leading beautician of the century. W. E. O'Neil was voted one of the ten smartest men of the century because he figured out: What they do on a rainy night in Rio, how are things in Glocca Morra, and why Richard didn't ever open the door. The man who invented the first perpetual motion machine was Joseph Nanini. this was done in 2001. The fastest man in the world in 1948 in the London Olympics for the mile was V. A. Hartford. The Star of stage and screen. Bill Van Alstine. was considered the great matinee idol of the century, greater than Valentino or Sinatra.

Weniger. Helen McCabe invented, in 1978, build 'em up shoes, that were guaranteed to make you at least 5 inches taller. Bob Watkins invented the work saver in 1996. This machine saves more work than anything of its kind ever invented. Audrey Ready and Clarice Palmer finally OPENED, in 1966 a SCHOOL which ore may only attend once a week in order to pass. Joan Morgan was one of the machines that made the typewriter obsolete—all you have to do is think and it writes.

(16) History This little band of pilgrims journeying to what we thought was an unobtainable height began their bewildered career as freshmen four long hard years ago 52 strong, with Bob Smith, President; Helen Marie Kraut, Vice President, and Pat Minette, Secretary-Treasurer. After being initiated, kicked around, looked down on, and loving every minute of it the whole year, we finally got to be Sophomores. After an uneventful Sophomore year during which our President was Paul Webb and during which we presented a typically Sophomore assembly we at last entered the realm of upperclassmen. Our President was Ralph Koontz, Vice President, Betty Overcash. The Junior Play, Captain Apple Jack, was presented April 5th. It was quite a success. Ah! At last we are Seniors. (!!!!) 45 strong, including two veterans Jim Wilson and LeRoy Grosser. The Senior Play was One Mad Night, which was a huge success. We also gave a Senior Ball with a candy cane motif. This last year of ours will always be one of our fondest memories. Senior Play On November 22, 1946 the Senior class finally pronounced their new creation, One Mad Night ready for presentation. Take it from Mr. Barrett, who directed, it was a creation. At least nothing like it happened in the book. Gary Snyder and Betty Lou Brown took the leads. Pat Minette, Bob Watkins, Bob Kullberg, Ralph Koontz, Bill Hupp, Dorothy Eide, Pat Lewis, Martha Larsen, Kenny Petersen, Helen Marie Kraut, Bette Bakke, and Betty Overcash completed the cast of the mystery comedy. ( 17 Juniors We, the Junior Class, entered High School in '44. Bob Johnson was our class president. We had one letterman. In 1945 we did the initiating and gave the Frosh a dance. This year we elected Glenn Freeman as President, and found five boys winning letters in sports. The Junior Class officers were Jack Davis, President; Alice Mary Johnson, Vice President; Helen Ebert, Secretary-Treasurer, and Bob Johnson, Reporter. We had fifteen lettermen of those who took part in sports. Our Junior play, Every Family Has One, was presented on April 11. Those who acted were Helen Ebert, Glenn Freeman, Denneth Dvergsten, Billy Brown, Joanne Mueller, Dawn Rougle, Betty Carlson, Helen Jane Arras, Jean Hamilton, Jack O'Day, Joan Werner, and Gerald Bartow. On the 3rd of May, we held our Junior Prom which was attended by students and alumni. Next year is our last and because of our added experience we hope to make it the best. Sophomores We, the Sophomores, began our career as Freshmen in Cut Bank High School in '45. Donald Johnson was elected as our President, and one boy, Bob Artz, received a letter in sports. We began our second year of High School with a happy revenge on the little Frosh and honored them with a dance. Our class officers were Andy Patten, President; Bob Van Alstine, Vice President; Bert Van Alstine, Secretary, and Dorene Taylor, Reporter. Freshmen We, the Freshmen, entered our high school career with lipstick faces and much bowing to the upperclassmen. The Sophomores were nice, though, and gave us a dance after the initiation. We responded with the annual Freshman Return Dance. Our officers were Jack Moore, President; Tommy Minette, Vice President; Don LaGrand, Secretary-Treasurer, and Bobby Hall, Reporter.

It is believed that the male membership is also the largest in the club's history. The Glee Club has progressed under Mrs. Barrett's direction. There was no singing until voices were tested and places were assigned, which took the major part of the first two weeks. At the Open House program they sang, Indian Love Call, Over the Rainbow, and with a special chorus leading, Will You Remember? The first assembly of the year was presented on March 14 by a number of the members. As is in keeping with all music clubs' traditions, the program was all musical. The Glee Club was again, as in previous years, a part of the local band concert. Something new has been added—a sextet. These six girls have practiced every Monday night since they organized. They will sing for graduation and may enter a state or district festival. These girls are: sopranos, Doris Thomas and Rosemarie Groymans; second-sopranos, Dawn Rougle and Martha Larsen, and altos, Dorothy Eide and Pat Lewis. Band Music floats throughout the building on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 11:30 to 12 when the high school band plays and practices under the direction of Mr. Haburchak. There are fifty-seven members in the band this year. This includes a number of students from the Junior High. The Band has done a good job of participating in the between-halves entertainment during the basketball season. The Cut Bank High School Band led the big parade for the Havre Music Festival to the football field where Mr. Haburchak directed the Mass Band. They presented their annual concert on April 26. Live Wire The Live Wire, the school paper, is published every four weeks during the school year. The Live Wire is a member of the Montana IEA and the International Quill and Scroll. Pat Minette is the editor this year. Betty Ann Overcash is his able assistant editor. Except for the two editions put out by the Junior class and Journalism class the Live Wire is made by the elected staff. The Live Wire has grown from a four page edition to a six page one this year through the efforts of the staff and Mr.Barrett. (29) Student Council The purpose of the Student Council is to establish a more perfect understanding of the rules and traditions of the high school, develop initiative and self confidence in the students and to give the students a larger share in managing their own activities. The President of the council this year is Bill Hupp, the Vice President is Jack O'Day, and the Secretary-Treasurer is Bob Van Alstine. The council consists of sixteen students with Mr. Davis and Mr. Haburchak from the faculty. Theta Epsilon We are the largest Home Ec club in the state of Montana, boasts Theta Epsilon who are completing their eleventh successful year as a high school club. At present Miss Stufft is their able leader. The annual district meeting was held in Browning in October with the entire club attending. Joyce Sheffield was elected district vice president. A St. Patrick's Day dance, the annual spring elections, and the formal installation of officers and initiation of new members comprised the club's activities for the year. The officers for this year are Bette Bakke, President; Joan Elliott, Vice President; Helen Ebert, Secretary; Joyce Sheffield, Treasurer, and Noel Tucker, Scrapbook Editor. New members initiated this spring were twenty-eight in number. Oar Make every stroke count is the OAR club motto. The club is now three years old as it was started in 1945 by the Shorthand II class. The Order of Artistic Riters has held monthly parties given by two members each month. The party in May will also be the initiation party. Shorthand I will make members at this time. Bette Lou Brown is President; Bette Bakke, Vice President; Helen McCabe, Secretary-Treasurer, and Mary Goldrick, Reporter. Though Mrs. Jones has quit teaching she continues to be the club sponsor with Miss Olcott assisting.

The present club started out under the supervision of Miss Remington. Mr. Barrett became the sponsor of the club in January 1946, and has continued to give us his valuable leadership up to the present time. This year they have given two dances. The first one was after the game with Browning on September 27. The second one featured the first floor show at a dance this year. The Spanish Club banquet was held the Sunday before Christmas, December 22. The guests at the occasion were Mrs. Barrett and Caroline. Their assembly for this year was entitled Fearless Fosnick's Triumph or the Case of the Red Lollypop. The leaders for this year were Senorita King, President; Senor Hungate, Vice President; Senorita Overcash, Secretary-Treasurer, and Senorita Lewis, Reporter. Latin Club Under the supervision of Mrs. Swanson, the Latin Club has prospered this year. They have gone on a picnic this spring, given an assembly, and sponsored a dance after a football game and after a basketball game. Elections were held in the fall making George McCabe, President; Joanne Mueller, Vice President; Helen Jane Arras, Secretary; Denny Collier, Treasurer, and Doreen Taylor, Reporter. G. A. A. Nine girls, including four Juniors earned letters in G. A. A. this year. The letter is awarded when a girl has earned 1000 points. These points are earned by individual or group participation in sports. During the fall and spring months there were no organized group sports, but points were earned by hiking, bicycling, bowling, baseball, and horseback riding.
