nrci )M.iATiox .» We, the class of 1957, dedicate our “Pioneer” to the person, whose helping hand has made three years of high school activities successful. We gratefully acknowledge his earnest help with the Junior Prom, Class Picnics, the Barn Dance, Sneak Day, and Painting the “B”. Through his devoted efforts and untiring energy, he has gained the personal respect and admiration of every Senior. To you, Lep, we dedicate and share the pages of this hook. !•: MKX (O I v ( U uVHS I'lDIT ( I vS? L I'JTTKR , , . We, as editors, personally want to thank all those willing hands who helped make this book of memories a success. We hope all others share the enjoyment that we witnessed while putting this Pioneer together. We are grateful to Joel Over- holser and Miss Nora Harber of the River Press who have aided seniors in the production of thirty-three annuals and also to Vern Helmhrecht who has been annual photographer for the past ten years. Our plan for the Fort Benton High School Pioneer, through stories and pictures, is to record mem- orable activities of this school year. If there are laughs and tears when you leaf through your book, we have gained our purpose. 'VliK KIHTOltS 2

FRED ARNST Chairman ED PETERSON Trustee INGOLF BIRKELAND Vice Chairman LEONARD CRANE Trustee BRUCE GILBERT Clerk KERMIT OLSON Trustee The governing board of the Fort Benton Schools is elected by the voters. They determine policy and review the operation of the system. They hire a clerk to keep records of proceedings, issue war- rants and keep financial accounts. The superintendent of schools is their administrative officer and a professional advisor on educational matters. In the last two years the board has devoted a great deal of time to study of building needs, planning material for presenting the problem to the voters, and studying plans for a new senior high school. As this goes to press (March 1st) final plans have been prepared and accepted. Bids have been called for on March 19. BILL JOHNSTONE. B. S.. M. A.
