THE DRUMMONDA Following in the footsteps of Mrs. Allen, who initiated the first Annual D. H. S. has ever had, Mr. Sing and a picked staff ventured forth to maintain the standard set by their predecessor. Much effort and time was devoted to this cause and the finished product speaks for itself. BASKETBALL The Drummond Trojans of '46-'47 boasted a very good season ending with a 13 won, 13 lost record for the year. They had 970 points scored against them, while they chalked up 892 points against their opponents. Captain John Conn led the boys in scoring for the year with 319 points, followed by Bud Cumming, last year's leader, who scored 285. The team placed fourth in the annual District 15, Class B tournament held in Deer Lodge. SCHOOL PLAYS Annually in D. H. S. several plays are given under the direction of Miss Hawkins. Usually, there are two One-Act plays; one All-School play; and a Senior play, presented to obtain funds which the Seniors use in purchasing their going-away present for the school. TRIP TO WARM SPRINGS Every year, the Sociology class is given a day off to visit Warm Springs, Montana's State Hospital for the insane. Under the tutorship of Mrs. Warnke, this year, the students made the usual trip, accompanied by Mr. Sing. TRACK Each year, D. H. S., maintains a track team which competes with teams from adjoining districts. At this writing, the team is in training and Coach Leach looks forward to a very successful season with several of his lettermen back.

FROSH INITIATION A party was given in the School Assembly room at the beginning of the school year for the new frosh entering school. Court was held with Joe Rice as judge and the other senior class members as jurors. The Frosh, to- gether with Mrs. Warnke and Mr. Sing, were tried and all found guilty; then, given spats and various other sentences. After the initiation, games were played and lunch was served. Dancing was enjoyed until twelve. BIOLOGY CLASS Interested in raising funds so that trips could be taken to supplement the course, the Biology Class, under the instructorship of Mr. Sing, held a dance in Hall on October 12. The students very capably handled the affair, selling tickets and lunches and even providing some entertainment. George Lacey's orchestra played for the dance. As this went to press, the class had scheduled trips to the Smelter in Ana- conda, the Nursery in Helena, the State Penitentiary in Deer Lodge, and a trip to Missoula. TEACHERS MEA CONVENTION On October 24, the four faculty members journeyed to Helena to attend the All State Teachers Convention. This departure from school, though ben- eficial to the faculty, was viewed with over-enthusiasm by the student body, as it meant two holidays for them. SENIOR BALL The Graduating Class of 1947 held their Annual Senior Ball on November 29 in the High School Gymnasium. Music was furnished by Dick Merley's orchestra from Helena. Dancing was in progress from 10 p.m. till 2 a.m.
