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.

NEW YEAR'S EVE BASKETBALL DANCE On December 31, the Basketball team, under the advisorship of their coach, Mr. Leach, sponsored their annual New Year's Eve Dance in the School Gymnasium. A large crowd was in attendance and danced from 10 till 2 to the music of Walter Duncan's Swing Foursome from Anaconda. The dance was a huge success. AMERICAN HISTORY CLASS The American History Class, under the guidance of Mrs. Warnke, motored to Helena on February 13, to witness a session of the State Legislature. For most of the students, it was an educational experience, while for others, it was quite a novelty going through the Capitol Building. BINGO GAME AND DANCE The Paper Staff sponsored a Bingo Party and Dance on March 1 to obtain funds for turning out a better and more expensive Annual as a tribute to the Class of 1947. Prior to the games, the members put on a program, replete with music, singing, and story telling. Expensive prizes were secured for the Bingo game and dancing was enjoyed by all to the music of Two Blondes and a Brunette. Mr. Sing acted as Master of Ceremonies and also played drums. SADIE HAWKINS DANCE For the first time in the history of D. H. S., a Sadie Hawkins Dance was held on March 15 in the High School Gymnasium. It was sponsored by Mrs. Warnke and her Girls Club. Chances were sold on a fourteen pound ham and a cake was raffled off at Chinese auction. Dancing was enjoyed to the music of Kreig's orchestra from Maxville.
