Jennifer Stanton ’ 91 Ron Stanton f56 Eleen Hawkinson 45 12 J.E. Stanton f43 W hen looking back to old GCHS days our senior sneak came to mind. We had to pool family gas stamps to go to Hell Creek on our sneak. (World War II was on and gas was rationed). We bought the picnic food and stored it at my house until the next day. W ent to Hell Creek and had a wonderful day. walking and sliding down tne hills; also visiting and eating. We noticed that some of the pop was fizzless and flat-tasting and we were going to tell the store about it. The next morning my dad, Carl, and ray brother, Elmer, asked how things went and how the pop was. They had taken the pop out of some of the bottles and refilled them with water and vanilla.

Shannon Hage man '92 Donna Fitzgerald Hageman '63 Reg Hageman f91 George Hageman '57 Harold Hageman '35 Ruthe Hageman Pidal '35 In 1931, the old high school was on the north side of the new grade school that is now our County Library. The assembly room was heated with a big coal heater. We had a wash stand in the hallway and restrooms were outside. We had 33 freshmen, and like me, many of them hadn 11 been to Jordan more than once or twice. The freshmen had to take Algebra, General Science and English, and I also took Latin I. We stayed at the old Dormitory which is now a church. There were two to each room and we had to keep it clean. We had a wash basin and a pitcher to pack water in. We could bathe in the tub on weekends if we were there, which we were most of the time. This drained out in the street in front of the Dorm and froze up most of the winter. When ray sister Mary and I stayed there ra y brothers would send $15.00 for room and board for the two of us. We could have what was left over for spending money. Now for the best part of high school- Basketball! I had seen one boys' game when I was an eighth grader and I could hardly wait to try it. We begged Gina Foster to come coach (for nothing) and I got to play in every game but the first quarter in our first game with Brockway. We played down at the dance hall. Sunday afternoon we'd gather there and play without a fire. When we graduated Mr. Brewer, a teacher, came back to see us. He said Most classes have one or two individuals, but your class was all individuals. We didn't care who was Class President and we wouldn't wear caps and gowns even if we had to decorate the hall in school colors instead of class colors. By Ruthe Pidal George kept up the basketball tradition. He was on the team that went to divisionals in Glasgow in '56. Someone elbowed him during a game and he ended up in the hospital having his appendix out. Harold tells a story about getting sent to the principal's office from English class by Miss Batson for eating candy. When the principal asked why he was there, Harold said, I've come to help you. The principal put him right to work making copies of something and nothing was ever said about the candy. Shawn Hooker T90 Alan Hooker '66 John Hooker 1926-8 Shawn Hooker's family goes way back in Garfield County history. His Great Grandfather, V. G. Hooker, came to this area with three uncles around 1900. They started several cattle ranches and Henderson and Kramer, Jordan's first big store. John Hooker, Shawn's grandfather, went to high school in Jordan for two years. Then his parents moved and he finished school in Miles City. f After he married Mildred ”Millie Laney, they came back to Garfield County and bought a ranch about 25 miles west of Jordan. They also ran the post office at Edwards for several years. Millie taught school for m any years in the Jordan Elementary and the high school. All Shawn could get from his dad, Alan was that he had a lot of fun during high school. Donna told Shannon about the time she was twirling her baton with the marching band in Lewistown and she dropped it. It rolled underneath a car and a little boy crawled under and got it for her. She finally caught up with the band, but was very e mbarrassed. 14
