The purpose of this volume is to reveal the personality and record the traditions of the Great Falls High School, that the book may be a lasting me- mento of the school year of 1922-23, of its accomplishments and its struggles, of its sunshine and shadow — the glory of the school life we are leaving. The Staff ex- presses the hope that each member of the class and of the school may find in this, his book, increasing interest and pleasure. % T « — =1 THE ROUNDUP % DEDICATION In appreciation of our indebtedness to Johanna Velikanje, class sponsor, for the in- fluence that her constant effort, sincere in- terest, loyalty, and courage have exerted on the successful progress of our class, we re- spectfully pay tribute with this, our book.

Largent Superintendent of Schools  9 2 3 THE ROUNDUP % THE PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE OUR SCHOOL INCREASED school enrollment is perhaps a better index of the present demand for education than any other, yet figures are difficult to interpret. The increased size of educational institutions is amazing and the problems of administration are becoming more and more complex, yet the general public — and even those in attendance — find this difficult to appreciate. A few facts concerning the size of our own high school may prove illuminating. The enrollment in the Great Falls High School is twelve hundred and fifty. No auditorium in the city is large enough to seat the school com- fortably. Extended in a line, hand to hand at arm ' s length, its members would span over a mile. Two abreast and each couple ten feet behind the preceding, the pupils and faculty would form a procession a mile and a quarter long. The head of such a procession would be well through the business district of the city when the tail would still be in the high school. Were each member of the faculty teaching continuously throughout the school day successive classes of twenty-five pupils, at all times there would be a surplus of one hundred and fifty pupils. Classes actually enroll about thirty pupils each. Class periods are forty minutes in dura- tion. Allowing one fourth of that time to the teacher, thirty pupils par- ticipate in class work in as many minutes — one minute of recitation for each pupil. How is a school of over twelve hundred administered? This question was recently put to me by a resident of one of our county seats. My reply was somewhat as follows : Your town has a population of six hun- dred. You have a mayor and a city council, a marshal with the power of arrest, and a court with the power of compelling the truth, of calling upon the aid of a jury, and of fining and imprisoning. Our high school enrolls a civic body of more than twice the size of your whole town. It has none of your administrative officers and none of their powers, yet with but comparatively few rules and regulations teachers and pupils work together very peaceably. In general, our pupils are above the average in education and are capable of appreciating the democratic principles of doing only that in which all may reasonably participate. % 9 2 3 elfiht THE ROUNDUP % Bruce E.

Great Falls High School has had for a quarter of a century two such rooms, under the supervision of the same teachers. When a city names its assets it points to a busy plant, where cotton or wool is changed to cloth ; shows a smelter, where iron is cast, copper is refined, or gold milled ; draws attention, with citizen pride, to a water-fall, where with display of human ingenuity, the power of nature is made to serve man ' s needs ; or speaks of a leading citizen, who has helped build a railroad, plan an irrigation project, or sink a shaft — all great works, all part of man ' s victory in his struggle with nature. But there is a greater work than this in Great Falls. In Rooms 4 and 17 of the Great Falls High School, two influences, courageous, loyal, and devoted, have been steadily at work for a quarter of a century; and who can measure that which they have achieved? Their work is vastly more potent than is the creation of cloth, the manufacture of steel, or the utilization of water-power. It has been theirs to develop, at a time when impressions are most lasting, the power of thought, the only effectual power of earth. It has been theirs to direct that thought in the attainment of loyalty, courage, tolerance, and breadth of view. They have taught industry, devotion, and strength, and the joy of work well done. When the valuable things of Great Falls shall be rightly summed up, when the discerning eye shall measure justly and lovingly the worth- while things of this community, there will be ranked among the first of its assets the influence of Miss Anne Houliston and Miss Mary E. Stone upon the present and future power and strength of the life of Great Falls. % •925 I THE ROUNDUP %1 CLASSES ' 923 scver.iten THE ROUNDUP Jtt fUmonam Ultam iitort late Gllafia nf 1921 Utrgtma ilaralla ilttrpljg GtlaBB of 1922 eighteen % SP THE ROUNDUP %n THE SENIOR CLASS James Clark Turner President Mabel M.

After he broke into fame by acting Peyton in The Prince Chap, ' all the femmes in the school thought him the best- loo king: thing. But he paid no atten- tion to this, got himself down to work, and just sails on, oblivious to fate or woman He ' s even able to fool the faculty, which is .more than most of us can do. Everything Promo does, he does well, and he does every- thing.

Cora Olsox Cora is something of a philosopher, for hei outlook on this somewhat disappointing life is that to have definite aims, to work hard and diligently, to sacrifice silently, and to have joy all along the path, not forgetting the human touch, is the sure road to success. And then as an afterthought she adds, Some bonks ars to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few have to be really chewed, but be careful what you eat. Her high grades in stenography and typewriting hint at a high salary in the business world. General Course. Entered from Dodson High (2) ; Glee Club (4). Margaret Ward How she has acquired the ability to keep her numerous homos faithful and happy has always been a mystery to us — perhaps it is because she has practised long and diligently. She has been biased by the gods with a beauty rare and exceptional. There is an aristocratic shade in her manner, but it would be hard to misconstrue it as exclusiveness, as it is so plainly a near relative of shyness and is so well carried. Peggy ' s is a quiet personality, and she has a frankness among girl friends that is to be envied. General Course; Hi-Life Staff (2); Party Committee (2) ; Roundup Day Program (4). Robert H. Wilson To speak truth, he has not distinguished himself by remarkable feats in athletics, in club work, or in the recitation halls, but he has been an excellent classmate, participating in and affording much amusement. He owns to a mild, unobtrusive personality but among his own kind he is genial and friendly. We recall, in connection with Bob, wild days of frivolity in Junior chemistry, which unfor- tunately ended disastrously at the end of the second semester, but which were a lot of fun while they lasted. Helpful in time of need, sympathetic in time of Brief, loyal to a cause, a little careless, a trifle lazy, a bit intolerant — just a good example of the average high school boy. Scientific Course ; Music Club (2) ; Senate (2, 3). 9 2 3 twenty-one THE ROUNDUP Polly Marble Bristol Say, who took that emotional part in the Junior play in ' 22 ? Polly Bristol. Well, it certainly was superbly and intelli- gently portrayed. Of course, it was — Polly does things that way ! And thoroughness is another feature of Polly. We do not exactly know how to de- scribe her, except that — well, she ' s the kind of girl you like to meet. It is a real pleasure to talk to her or to have her talk to you. And for charm of manner — but we don ' t need to say more. Put all her attributes together and you have Polly. And Polly ' s just Polly. We ' re sure glad we met her and have known her for four years ! General Course ; Girls ' League Representa- tive (1, 2) ; Senior Dramatics ; The Correct Thing (2); Prince Chap (3); The Neigh- bors (4) ; Merely Mary Ann (4). Norma G. Clem This demure young lady has followed the banner of ' 23 faithfully and quietly, leaving the spectacular achievements to others. From Bunny ' s first appearance she has been the envy of her classmates whenever a piano is around. Did you ever hear her play? Simply wonderful. When she fully awakens to her accomplishmenuts, the wall of bashful re- serve, behind which she retires in moments of embarrassment, will vanish. She is an ar- dent student of languages — especially French. N ' est-ce-pas. Norma?

Kilroy Oh, here we have the noble Alexus, the Idle of the King — -eh — Alexander ? His chief pastime — the gentle art of doing nothing. In fact it is his trump card. He has the knack of making friends and is a hard work- er — when there is no work to be done. Bluf- fing is somewhat like poetry in that men must be born with an aptitude for it. Killey was born that way. His ability as an artist is known far and wide, and many of his best known works of art will be left on the desks of the school for his wondering successors to gaze upon. General Course; Cartoonist for Roundup (4). Rachel Margaret Fairfull A fair flower from the prairie near Stock- ett, as happv and free as the day is long. If Rachel were as assiduous in pleasing the teachers as she is in following up her other hobbies, she would certainly win a place among those mythical, incomprehensible Hon- or Ten of her class. Her Amazonian stature leads us to believe that if it were a question of to fight or not to fight, she would fight, and there is no doubt as to who would be the victor. Ray says we aren ' t made to be good in this world — but we try to be. General Course. Entered from Centerville High School (3). 1923 twcnty-tv.o THE ROUNDUP Charlotte Irene Fairpull Ever to be remembered in the annals of local history is the day when modest, demure Charlotte, our Lady of Dexterity, descended the steps of the Belt daily to continue her search for knowledge on a higher plane. In one hand was her carpet bag, in the other, a De Luxe copy of The Biography of Benja- min Franklin from which she may have re- ceived an inspiration for her cheerful and companionable nature. She, like Miss Nancy in Silas Marner, has all the attributes of a lady — a high veracity, delicate honor in her dealings, deference to others, and refined per- sonal habits. General Course. Entered from Centerville High School (3). Hugh John L. Bergold Tickets ! Tickets I Here ' s where you get your tickets ! This is the cry which has greeted us throughout our Senior year and which has made of its producer the champion ticket seller of the school in football as well as in the Roundup campaign. Joe Matteueci ' s best grade of olive oil is used to give the ap- pearance of a patent leather covered head, but when the Italian product is unavailable he resorts to the home-made, which is a hair- raising mixture of pomade, vaseline, lard, and (except in times of famine ) butter. Tiny ' s a plague o both houses, but G. F. H. S. re- joices to call him its own. General Course; History Club (2, 3); Glee Club (4); Prince Chap (3); Boys ' Club (2, 3) : Manager for Sale of Football and Basket- ball Tickets (4) ; Hi-Life (3) ; Committee Roundup Subscriptions (4). Lenore Elizabeth Bettens Sweet, gentle, demure, Lenore is a true ex- ample of what a girl should be. There have been many things of benefit to the school which have had their beginning in Lenore ' s fertile brain or had her fingers mixed up in them. She is a real pusher, a real sport in everything she undertakes, and some sprinter at that, for she keeps just a little ahead of the best long distance runner in school. General Course; Glee Club (2) ; Prom Com- mittee ; Party Committee ( 1 ) ; Junior Com- mittee (3). Irene O. Hober One look at those black eyes and that per- fectly marcelled hair makes us think of Gloria Swanson, stepping out of her Pierce Arrow. Irene isn ' t a movie actress — not yet— but per- haps one day we shall see her name in electric lights, flashing on the busy streets of Sand Coulee. Blackie would most likely say with Kipling, I ' ve taken my fun where I ' ve found it ; but would go Kipling one better and add that when she didn ' t find it, she manufactured it. We can ' t say anything with regard to her faults ; for, although she may have some, we can ' t find any one to sav anything against her. General Course; History Club (21 ; Glee Club and Chorus (1, 2). m r . 2N3C  9 2 3 twenty-three THE ROUNDUP Robert- Edward Lownby Bob is one of our bright young fellows. He made the course and got his diploma in only two years, the other two being spent at home in bed. He has always been the pride of the math classes ; and no triangle, pentagon, hexagon, or any other gon can get away from him alive. He is thorough in whatever he does ; and we expect that Bob, with this thoroughness, combined with his natural lika- bleness, will land near the top of the ladder some time. He gets what he wants and he wants what he gets. Scientific Course; Glee Club (1); Class Party Committee (21. Mabel Maud Johnson Mabel is the original little Lady of Fash- ion. Her nifty clothes and winning ways will be missed by all those who have known her and have basked in the sunshine of her smile. She is pointed out to strangers as that smil- ing-faced, sunny-dispositioned phantom of de- light, one of the number of whom Virgil has written, Varium et mutabile semper femina. This young lady invites the collective love of the class. Kindliness, friendliness, and energy win popularity, and Twin possesses all these characteristics. G.neral Course. Entered from Butte High (2); Class Vice-President (4); Glee Club and Chorus (4); Prom Committee; Girls League Party (3, 4); Party Committes (2, 3). 1 1 %•-- ' ■ Beulah Jeanette La Mere Smooth, shining black hair, and eyes which hold all the mysteries of a Midsummer Night ' s Dream. No one is more earnest than Toots when she tackles a job, but she is very loath to choose anything to tackle. Although no feminine Hercules in stature, she has used what height she possesses to good advantage on the basketball floor and demonstrated her athletic prowess on the championship team which beat Mt. Angelus. General Course; Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Senior Announcement Committee. Francis Barth He accomplishes more with less effort than any man known, but the word hurry is a minus quantity in his vocabulary. He is not a model boy, for he has two weaknesses — ice cream and girls. He has gone ' in for luxur- ious simplicity from his costumes to his hab- its. His favorite activity is rolling the square marbles and his favorite food is anything. All frivolity aside, there are few men who exceed him in capability, straightforwardness, and good common sense.

She conducts herself with a quiet dignity that is the despair of mere Common Clay ; yet she is most democratic. Her brains and talents are the envy of all who know her, but still she remains ignorant of her worth. Ignorance is bliss — true — but Socrates says, Know thyself. And now, though Anna ' s peace of mind be disturbed, she at least knows our excellent opinion of her. General Course. Entered from Belt High School (3); Business Club (3). Lillian Alice Carlson Is the average high-school studant willing to work unselfishly for his class ? Unselfish effort is a rare and great virtue, but here ' s an exponent above the average. She ' s had love affairs of more or less magnitude, al- though at present she seems untroubled and happy, but there is a rumor. You just can ' t keep track of her. Her scholarship is very good, for she has brains enough to use con- sistently the brains she has. No noticeable faults, except a little affectedness of manner, which, however, is so slight and so appropri- ate as to be very unobtrusive.

Melvin Rude Mel is one of those quiet, studious chaps, who, with his inexhaustible fund of good humor, has accomplished really worth while things in our school. He is one who does not believe in advertising, and we never hear him say a single word about himself, what he has done, or what he expects to do. Yes, Skinny is a mighty fine fellow. With his ability to put things over, he is sure to become an im- portant Something, Sometime, Somewhere. Commercial Course. Esther Elerine La Voie Esther came all the way from Pierre to go to old Great Falls High. She has not been with us long, but she has entered into the spirit of G. F. H. S. from the very first. The good fairy smiled kindly upon Esther, for she gave her two priceless gifts : One is a discern- ing mind ; the other, the art of flooding the lives of those about her with sunshine. Re- freshingly amusing, delightfully exciting, ex- ceptionally entertaining — that ' s Esther, just like a good book. General Course. Entered from Pierre, South Dakota, High School (4). l 923 twenty-five THE ROUNDUP Marie Isabel Kerxaghan How do we know Marie is Irish? Just look at that last name with its nine perfectly good letters of the alphabet put together in such a way that it can ' t be other than Irish. And not only her name — but her speech, her laugh, her freckles, her inconsistency, her spiritual- ity, her materiality, her versatility, and her humor — Irish all. Before seeing her face you might take her to be a Frosh, but when you see that broad forehead and slight trace of a Mona Lisa smile, you know she ' s nothing short of a Senior. General Course; Swimming Club (1). Eugene Fletcher Scrutinize this face very closely, my friends, for by hard study alone is one enabled to ap- preciate the artistic expression depicted there- on. The ordinary individual cannot discern this virtue without the aid of a pair of binoculars, but we of the finer perceptibilities readily dis- tinguish the wealth hidden beneath this mask. But we tip you this warning : Behind Eu- gene ' s studied indolence there is a keen mind, fitted with a tongue sharp as a two-edged sword. We predict that the stern fearless- ness, as yet so little known, will make Gene in the law a second Landis. Scientific Course; Boys ' Club (2, 3, 4); Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Track (2, 3). Josie Ioxa Evans Josie is another one of those happy crea- tures, who, we think, has an ambition, a hob- by, or something of the kind, else why all that pouring over books and papers ? She practices, in spare time, on the typewriter and has already attained the two and one- half words per minute speed (using the well- known H. P. system, we are told). Joe did her part in making our Junior year ac- tivities a success and we know that she will do for others in the future as she has done for us in the past. General Course. Marie Elizabeth MacPhersox If you want to hear somebody who can tickle the ivories, just ask Mac to play for you. Jazz music is her greatest delight, and when she sings to it even dumb animals sit up and take notice. She is the possessor of a vivacious temperament, which is reflected in her face and charming personality. And Fritz says, There are dainty little dimples in her cheeks and in her chin, and my foolish heart goes pounding till it makes a fearful din. General Course ; Prom Committee ; Class Party Committee (2, 3). 1923 twenty-six THE ROUNDUP Maurice Dotseth He went to sleep as a Freshman and woke up when he was about to graduate and claims old Tut-Ankh-Amen doesn ' t have much on him. He passes as a Senior, and in his short period of wakefulness he has absorbed — merely absorbed, we ' re tellin ye — more in- formation and workable knowledge than one hundred fifty of the the hundred eighty-one graduates. In the meantime Maurice attended the Jamboree last spring. The rain faded his hair and made his face red, according to his story, but we think it was the girls. Manual Training Course. Axabel Mary Rogers A laugh, a titter, a giggle. Of all my mother ' s children. I love myself the best. We don ' t blame you. Tiny : we sho uld, too, if we were the only offspring in our family. No, we haven ' t an advertising agency in the school — we don ' t need one — we ' ve got Anabel. She is a general good mixer, even if her thoughts are of but one, and even if her morning, noon, and evening song is There ' s nothing so sweet as Love ' s young dream. 7 Classical Course ; Vice-President History Club (2); President History Club (3); Music Club (1, 2, 3). Christina Zipperian Scrutinize this face very closely, my friends, for, like another in our album, by hard study only is one enabled to appreciate the expres- sion. Ambition and perseverance belong to Christina, as is shown by her ability to take high school in three years — an extraordinary accomplishment, all of us will agree. Tine still insists that she is going to be an old- maid school teacher; but her friends will not be surprised if someone induces her to change her mind and heart; although a lot of people claim nowadays that there is a big advantage in the former state. Classical Course; Glee Club and Chorus (1); Freshman Party Committee. James Miller Charteris James made his debut in Great Falls eight- een years ago, as a rearing young cub. He could say da-da and goo-goo with such eloquence that his parents saw he was a child of destiny, and decided he must have a Col- lege Education. So next fall he will bid home a tender farewell and start out in the cold, cold world. How Jimmie got through school has been a mystery, but we imagine that he ran away from the teachers. In the fall it ' s football; in the winter, basketball, and during the spring he ' s a mainstay on the track squad, and then he works over time by keeping up his track record or. the dance floor.

Carlson Hard experience has created a race of pure Montanans, who have learned to come up smiling ; in few countries does one meet the cheery, hardy, friendly personalities that are found in this state. In this new race we elect Hilda an honorary member, for there are few in the class who can qualify as thor- oughly as she ; and yet cheeriness does not aptly describe the faculty she possesses — it is more a placid desregard of all unpleas ant things ; pure optimism, we call it. She has the broad, clean-cut mentality of a typical Western girl, and has as a result a high standard of scholarship. General Course. Entered from Stockett (2) ; Glee Club (3). Mona Elizabeth Knight This bright buxom lass is a confirmed hater of men and refuses to look upon their fair visages. (Some exceptions.) In other words she likes what she likes when she likes it, but she doesn ' t want what she doesn ' t want when she doesn ' t want it. A young lady of very decided views, we should say. Altogether quiet, staunch, and true to every cause she adopts, and to her friends she is as constant as is the Northern Star. General Course; Volleyball (1, 2, 3); Kick- ball (1, 2, 3) ; Hiking Club (3); Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Captain Girls ' Basketball (3, 4). Albert Philip Fergus There ' s so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it hardly behooves any of us to talk about the rest of us, seems to express Polonius ' ' feelings, for whoever heard him speak slight- ingly of any one ? A quiet, unassuming yet interesting chap is Al. But when he speaks, Io ! words of wisdom roll forth — if you can understand them. He has never flunked and never lied — we reckon he never knowed how.

Edith Matilda Keating This specimen is the proud possessor of a (notice) dimple. She has proved that a natu- ral complexion is perfectly possible and prac- ticable, but it ' s hard to believe ; however, hers is sure noble. ( Notice inserted photograph ) . Egypt greets all comments on said com- plexion with a hearty laugh. She occupies the third place in her family since there are .only three in it. Her strong mind has fought and conquered four years of math. This does her great credit, for few of her sex are so brave.

Honest, we really think she is growing, too ! She has a dignified, yet hos- pitable, air. There is always a smile on th$ se artificiated red lips. She has throughout her whole course been a willing laborer on Com- mittees. How she c2.n manipulate her book in history — and get by ! One of her favorite manifestoes is E Pluribus Unum, which she says means Give me liberty or give me death, spoken by George Washington at the Battle of Gettysburg. General Course; Glee Club and Chorus (1); Big Sister Committee (4) ; Freshman Party Committee. Carl Henry Rippel Chubby, cherubimic, an ever-smiling face, which bears a striking resemblance to an apple — that ' s him. These famous lines from Shakespeare are his favorites : Though my fat is ouite sufficient, I am exceedingly efficient, etc., etc. The lower the exam clouds hang, the louder roars the thunder of the faculty, the more expansive Hank ' s grin becomes. It is always a tonic to see him. We are sorry he ' s a Sen- ior, for now he ' ll have to go. Scientific Course; Boys ' Club (2, 3); His- tory Club (2) ; Class Basketball (4). Elizabeth Opal Preston Now we come to another bobbed head. Yes, but then one must be stylish. A glance at her picture leaves no doubt as to her ances- try, while a slight knowledge of her breezy personality shows that her native town has left its mark ur on her.

Here is the beautiful maiden who distinguished herself so favorably in Senior Dramatics, says the Freshman in the hall. There is no doubt about it, Ettela has wonder- ful dramatic ability, which we hope will bring her gain and fame. We could picture her as the aristocratic heroine of a medieval castle much better than as a live Senior. However, she is a perfect dear, as the girls say, and she knows how to work a good deal better than most heroines do. Parley-vous Francais ? did you say ? We ' ll say so.

S. can do to you. His greatest vice is an epidemic of foolishness, from which he suffers more or less serious at- tacks, but which fails to impair his scholar- ship, though he, at such times, reduces his school mates to insanity and despair. In executive capacity he has been distinguished by sane, practical self-control and foresight. His acquaintanceship is extensive and pleas- ant, and certainly for no amount of benefit, or through intimidation would he forsake a friend or a principle.

Stephanie Hope Veen A daughter of the gods, divinely tall and most divinely fair. To her acquaintances she appears to be a dignified Saxon princess, but to her friends, there is nothing formal or haughty about her. In fact she is warm- hearted and responsive, qualities which may contribute to her popularity. She affects a drawl and drawn-out method of speech to make us think her slow and easy going, but we know her too well to be fooled. But why in the world did they nickname her Hope- less ? General Course. Helen Fogarty Snappy black eyes and black hair and a lovable disposition — where is the land of her fathers ? Ireland, of course ! None from the bright and sunny Isle is more highly appreci- ated than this one from Ulster. Helen has leanings toward art and costume ; but with that unconquerable happiness of hers, it seems to us that she could do anything. We can ' t make affirmations concerning her temper, but judging from our experience with other Irish tempers, we imagine it is_ fiery if aroused. There is little room in her life for love — so far— but when the right chap comes along we prophesy a hard fall for Midget. Good scholarship and broad friendliness com- plete a consistent, creditable character. General Course, Entered from Bismarck, N. D. (3) ; History Club (3) ; Prom Committee.

Art is another member of the slow and steady legion that deserted the class of ' 22 for a more agreeable, progressive, social, and in- tellectual aggregation.

The Irish tendency to battle and a French in- consistency mark her acts. A flirtatious re- gard for the sturdier sex has created some furore without injury either to her scholarship or to her heart. She is a composite creation, which a kind Providence gave us to spice the class. Her life is in her feet and the boys all say, When Frances dances with me, I ' m as gay as can be !

She is not of the Order of the Vacuous Heads, as is shown by her work ; for instance, in history. She is not the least bit interested in that heterogenous mass known as Everybody, but those in whom she is interested, well— do those fortunate ones want anything done? If they do, they call on Annette and the job is turned out perfectly. General Course. Entered from Belt High (2). — dKi Thomas Lyle Higbee Lyle is never so happy as when charming his fair admirers. He ' s handsome with that lacquered hair and benign aspect. Ever since our Freshman year this fair youth has had to drive off the weaker sex with an ammonia gun. He doesn ' t exactly excel in industry, yet his ability to bluff has permitted him to perch in many trees. With proper caution and an attitude of handle with care on the part of those around him and due considera- tion on his part to stop, look, and listen, we see no reason why Lyle cannot overcome all obstacles and ascend to higher altitudes.

Quiet is she in her activity, sincere in her friendships, which are many. Something in her nature conveys the thought of deep, still water. Her work in school is of sterling quality, but not of an ostentatious nature. She is conscien- tious in thought, word, and deed, and is a jolly good student. Her name is a synonym of Booster.

He takes life as it comes, good weather or bad, with the same good nature. He has for studies a horror that is mitigated only by his bluffing ability. Jim is an enthusiastic sup- porter of class activities and is a general handy man when there is work to be done that does not require strenuous mental exer- tion. He is always ready to take a chance, but so far has taken only one. An extract of daily occurrence echoes from Peggy : Say ! Who was the girl you were talking to, you false deceiver?

Although she is a quiet worker, she is often aroused to the point of doing and saying great things. A sterling character, coupled with a desire to look on the bright side of life, has made her one of (far most de- sirable classmates.

He is distinguished for his faultless dressing and an abnormal taste for puttering. He possesses the rare honor of having made glass, forty-leven air- planes, three storage batteries, and a water turbine with the high efficiency of 1.99 per cent.

She is a rare combination of kindliness and charm, always ready with a friendly deed or word — just the best of pals and a sure cure for the blues. Yea! the movies on Saturday night, is a war cry all her own.

Marjorib Innes Macrae Somehow we always fall for this type. Her normal, girlish temperament and charming manner should make her a somewhat despotic queen — that it doesn ' t, is her own preference. Marje is conscious of the fact that boys exist, but fails to regard them as more than slight annoyances to her serenity. It may be said that she is self-centered, but among her girl friends she opens up astonishingly ; and at no time is she cold or haughty, not even to the grossest male. She is just not interested, that ' s all, and finds occupation and satisfac- tion in doing what she is told to do in the? manner told to do it, thereby being an excel- lent student.

We are sure she will succeed in the cruel and unsympathetic world, if she will surmount its obstacles as she has done those in High School. She grants everyone else the benefit of the doubt, and she usually gets the same consideration in return.

Due to the fact that at an early age he was taught that there is plenty of room at the top, he started in that direction and grew to be most divinely tall ; however, we can ' t exactly add, most divinely fair.

She regards life in a serious light, and assigns all frivolity to others of different make-up. Her delight lies in knowledge ajid in effort. This gives her a thoughtful, medi- tative disposition, not one of intense moods but of pronounced preferences. It must not be inferred that her nature is in any way surly or selfish, for it is more of a friendly, although self-effacing, variety. Nevertheless, Gert does not lack the youthful tendency of being slightly sentimental, and is firmly convinced that she is eternal in her attach- ment.

Of course, the latter is none of our business, though that sentimen- tality might be the cause for his popularity with the femmes, a popularity we thought due to his good dancing and his propensity to Say- ing It with Flowers on Valentine ' s Day. He ' s heavily charged with sociability, cheer- fulness, sportsmanship, and he ' s accommo- dating and friendly— a general favorite. Con- flicting reports make him both fickle and constant, but we know a Junior who has held him to the straight road for some time. General Course. Eloise Mildred Steward Although Eloise made her first appearance on Friday, the thirteenth (a date which few would envy), Lady Luck is her constant com- panion. Power dwells with cheerfulness, and herein lies Eloise ' s secret. She is a true friend to all dumb creatures, and we will say to her credit that she is not afraid of the wildest of them — Man ! Really, Chubby, with all your qualifications, we look to you to bring honor and slory on the class of ' 23. Domestic Science Course ; Party Committee (II; The Incorrect Thing (2 | ; Glee Club (.4 . Helen Zirkle Picture an energetic little miss mincing, with hobble-skirt gait, down the halls, her arms full of books and her hands full of pens and pencils. There — you have it, a life-sized photograph of Circle. She is an ideal home girl, but her gay chatter and sense of humor have added a splash of brightness to our halls of learning. She is another one of the few who keep their own counsel and go their own way and can always find a plausible answer for any of the multitudinous questions that have been asked by any of the official ques- tioners of the school.

Howard To glance at that high forehead and those penetrating eyes, one would never suspect that he has spent many a weary week in searching for an answer to the question : How long is a short story? He is as ada- mant in his convictions, possesses a scintillat- ing intellect, and is sturdy in his dependa- bility. His favorite book is The Life of Karl Marx.

That is Jordie Lease. Then you would go on to tell of the many ways by which she has endeared herself to her teach- ers, as well as to her fellow students.

Yet coupled with her over-developed humor are unusual character- istics, which you can ' t heli taking a fancy to, not even if you didn ' t want to. Occasionally, when she takes a rare notion to be serious, Millie finds little trouble in disposing of school work, of which on other occasions she would merely smile and say, That ' s too hard for me ; I couldn ' t get it, not in a thousand years, not I. General Course. Entered from Whitehall (2) ; Style Show (3). John Henry Harris, Jr. Here is a fighting Irishman with pro- nounced Sinn Fein tendencies and an irasci- ble, though practical, disposition. Astounding multiplicity of friendships, without undue de- pendence upon influential acquaintance. Few high-school students have his initiative or his vibrant quality of go-get-it. Withal there is a respect for proper authority, which speaks for a sensible upbringing and for a naturally sane, clear head, the only breach in it occurring when the glorious Green Isle is insulted by some traitor from Ulster. Then a painful and pugnacious scene is apt to oc- cur. He has the well deserved reputation of being the best business manager the Roundup ever enjoyed.

Catherine Louise Bottom ley You know Kitty seems to go by the maxim, Actions speak louder than words. She is so quiet that we can almost hear her think. We can truthfully say that Quiet as a puss is our Kitty, and her ways are pleas- ant and her paths are paths of peace. She is modest, but in her eyes there sometimes peeps forth a mischievous twinkle that signifies that she ' s really awfully nice — but that some- times it ' s nice to be naughty — that is — for a change.

We ' ve never had the chance to get really acquainted with her ; it seems she has been too busy working for an O. G. A. award in shorthand, which, we are glad to say, she received. Her future career is to be that of a private secretary, but from what we know of her, we doubt that this will remain her occupation long. We are taking into con- sideration what a charming personality is hers to make what she will of her life. General Course; History Club (2, 3). George Blumfield Real Scotch. Bottled in Bond. Aged eigh- teen years. A rare treat these days. This bit of Scotch is of ready humor and Highland cordiality. He is imbued with the idea that hard work and steady plugging is the only road to success. He has plodded through four years of high school, crammed with weari- ness, and has finally reached for his diploma. Success follows him, and with his good cheer and optimism, he pipes the day of graduation n ' everything. General Course; Agriculture Club {1, 2). Melvene Marie Frisbee If a recipe were asked for Marie ' s person- ality, it would probably be as follows : About one hundred pounds of tininess, creamed with a little bit of silliness, equal parts of haughtiness and naughtiness. Let it stand over night ; stir well ; then add an adorable smile, a cup of giggles, and three heaping teaspoonfuls of willingness to work. When well mixed, add a pinch of seriousness and you will have the real type of a real girl. General Course; Forum (2); History Club (3); Party Committee (2); Kickball (2). MOLLIE RUSTVOLD Mollie could be starred in a moving picture entitled The Blonde Beauty, because she has all of the necessary requirements, beauty, style, and that difficult element known as class. As to school, she toils not, neither does she care a whoop. Her personal appear- ance in the class room gives her more concern than do all of her scholastic clouds hich may happen to darken her usually cheerful out- look. If she sails through life as she has sailed through G. F. H. S., then Mollie should worry, because her happiness is assured. General Course: Glee Club and Chorus (2). forty-four l 2 3 THE ROUNDUP Emil Joe Valichek Don ' t try to pronounce Emil ' s last name ; nobody else does. His record in the class room shows him to be a studious lad, full worthy to represent the class of ' 23 in an y place, at any time. And that is not the only way in which we are proud to have him rep- resent us. You know him, and that is enough said : besides he wouldn ' t like it if we said any more. He has our best wis hes, which he would sadly miss, but which he could do very well without. We bid him farewell, but with no fears for his future. General Course; Glee Club (3). Verna L. Xordgardex She has a fatal disease called Conoveritis. It ' s perfectly harmless and not contagious in the least. A relative of hers made a bet that no Nordgarden would ever graduate from high school at the age of sixteen, but she wins the bet. She gets her lessons in spite of her so- cial activities. She runs a feline rest farm, containing one mangy patient. Don ' t worry about Shorty, for she knows someone that would do anything in the wide, wide world for her, if it were not too inconvenient.

An international association of col- lege students is being formed. It is to be called Neighbors, and the qualifications for membership are youth, high ideals, and an instinct for sociability. When Harv enters college, he certainly will be a worthy candi- date for this order. General Course.

And how she can dance the Highland Fling ! She makes a native of Scot- land feel like a recalled penny. She is one of the few heroes and heroines that have ex- plored the wilds of Latin to the extent of four years. Billie is going to be a Stenog and with this and her Latin accomplishments, she is a candidate for Who ' s Who. ' Classical Course ; Sophomore Party Commit- tee ; Freshman Party Committee. Clelia Ferne McFarland First impressions go a long way, and Feme ' s went so far that we wish she had come sooner. During the few months she has been here she has proved, without a doubt, that she is capable of adapting herself to new condi- tions. Her rosy cheeks and bright eyes pro- claim her vivacious spirit. At any rate, Hick has been a worthy addition to our class, and we want her to know that we ap- preciate her. General Course. Entered from Fort Benton High School (4). Donald H. Rydell Why he so studiously avoids the dances is a mystery of considerable magnitude, and at present we have no inkling of the reasons. But if he ever gets started — look out. for he ' s a mean job. Generally he ' s slow and deliber- ate, except when he gets in a hurry and then he always ties it up. His ambition is to have a steamboat. Perhaps then some moonlight night on the muddy Missouri, with all the world hushed and still, out of his memory will come the product of a sentimental hour : She thought she was, but she wasn ' t, For those were only days of youth. All nonsense aside, he is a true gentleman if not much of a scholar. What more could be said of any one? General Course ; Junior Prom Committee. Almona Jean Graham Curses, quoth the math class as she dropped the subject ; now, we ' ll have to do our own work. Work is the fondest thing she is (not) of. She was never noticed until she put her hair up, and then ! What did the angry mathematicians say ? Some peach ! When she gets a scheme thoroughly skum up, she invariably carries it through to a success- ful finish.

Illinois mourned its loss when Blanche left its blooming fields and came to this Windy City in her Sopho- more year. It was in the good auld days when Miss Simpson taught ancient history that this 111 ' specimen wandered in, looking scared, and parked in the front seat, out of pure necessity, because she could find space for her books only by using the seat in front of her — she said. Diligence in her studies is her long suit. She always gets passing grades, and she is proud of the best of them. General Course. Entered from Geraldine High (2) ; Glee Club (1) ; History Club (3).

This one has sweetened the days for us with her tinkling, silvery voice and her everlasting joy. She has proved that she can sober down sufficiently to be a good student when necessary, although her judgment as to when seriousness is proper may be a trifle lax. Among other things she is a shark at dressing, and says. And that on dress I lay much stress, I can ' t and won ' t deny. Scientific Course. Myrtle Regina Beckstrom We have with us a very unassuming, self- effacing individual, without agile or pene- trating wit, but with steady, dependable indus- try and business-like determination. They tell us that Mut is a good student — a natural consequence. She is not exactly a good mixer, but is sufficient unto herself ; and, like some other people, she appears to better advantage in a small friendly group than when she is considered simply as a member of the class. Even here she attracts attention by her earn- est, straightforward manner. General Course; Glee Club and Chorus (4).

Though only a small-town youth. Maurice savees only too well the ways of the gay city, and it is pre- dicted that his future will be full to overflow- ing in more ways than one. However, in spite of frequent admonitions to grow up, he continues to be happy-go-lucky, but we guess he ' ll be worth a diploma when he gets it.

We may not know much about her, but with a face like hers any one would take her at face value. She de- spises work and doesn ' t attempt to conceal the fact, but she ' s graduating and that ' s enough. In some ways she ' s an exception : She still has her long brown tresses, and we think she hardly has the heart to bob them. General Course; History Club (3). Mildred Berena Kufus Our class has produced a rival to Paderew- ski ! She plays the piano with emotion suffi- c ient to elicit sympathy from a seller of oil stock, to bring tenderness to the soul of a teacher, or to force humility into the heart of a Junior. She has adapted her finger ability to hammering and has developed into an ex- pert stenographer. Whatever I have done is due to patient thought, according to Midge ' s version, and that is why she is going to grad- uate with us.

Vincent decidedly has the cour- age of his convictions, and though Tie is often convicted with the wrong idea, he backs the belief with a commendable power of will. He is by no means an angel, but be to his vir- tues ever kind, be to his faults a little blind, for his little faults and failings are atoned for by his unfailing good nature and deter- mination.

We have found her a class- mate of interest, with her varying moods and warm friendliness. A healthy attractiveness, without the flapper ' s desire to attract, has made her a favorite; but more than this, she is a friend of all her intimates. She has comic attacks ; also astonishingly lucid inter- vals, during which the rationality of her mind comes to light. We sincerely hope that in the years to follow we can somehow keep track of her.

Zalie Valentine Warner Coal black hair, a voice like thunder, and a sleepy disposition are outstanding character- istics of this tall youth. He has developed, to a high degree, the art of saying little, but when he speaks, the populace listen with awe- struck admiration as the words rumble from his throat. Zal is a hard worker (at times!, and while his reserved nature prevents him from being well known throughout the school, still those who know him will tell you that he is always an excellent fellow.

Go West, young man, go West, and we guess that her Pa heeded the advice, for now Irene is forced to cross the massive structure of concrete that spans the stately Missouri. If it were not for the old bridge she ' d either be ignorant now or a champion swimmer. But thanks to said bridge, she is neither.

When she felt the call of the intelligence, she threw down her milk-pail, let the calves out, took off her apron, and entered the G. F. H. S. Al is one student who has discovered that business and pleasure won ' t mix during school hours, but we have our opinion as to her opinion of it, outside of school hours. General Course.

Consequently they have endowed him with great physical nimbleness and ( to the female of the species I heavenly dancing abil- ity. An unfortunate accident removed him from the basketball team, but not before he had shown us what he could do, and had dis- tinguished himself as a forward. Much Irish in his makeup gives him unquenchable nerve and a rather quick temper, but his good qualities create for him an enviable position — a boy universally popular among both boys and girls.

We are not sure whether La Verne is lucky because she smiles or smiles because she is lucky. I do beguile the thing I am by seeming otherwise, might well pass for her slogan. She looks ambitious enough, but we believe her greatest exertion is thinking, un- less it be of new ways to escape anything that savors of work ; and in this she has succeeded surprisingly well. However, due to the fact that she has never been in a hurry, she has always had time to make lots of friends. General Course. Edxa Elizabeth Williams Ed looks as if she loves to study and she really does ! Er — that is to a certain extent. By way of explanation she says : No song of minstrel has e ' er been heard That can giv e the joy of those few sweet words, (Their magic spell I can ' t resist), ' Time is up, class dismissed. ' We haven ' t a hint of what she is going to be when she grows up, but to make a few guesses is not forbidden. Perhaps she will be a pianist, demonstrating the classics at Feists ' s, maybe an inventor of a non-skid chewing gum, or still better, a lecturer on Why Bav Windows Are Not Made of Water Glass.

This is but part of the foundation of his rep- utation.

And to top off her versatile nature, she is an authority on dancing, and what is more she can demonstrate her ideas. General Course ; Party Committee ( 1 ) ; Correct Thing (2). Rita E.

Rita ' s ways are surely fetch- ing, with her rare combination of dignity and sprightly, spontaneous pep. She has sweet- ened the days for us with her bubbling, infec- tious giggle and perpetual joy. She can sober down sufficiently to be a good student, too, a feat which some of us find very difficult. But why does this youngster refuse to grow? Yes, Rite is small, but — well, you ' ve heard a little about her ; maybe someone else will tell you more some day. Scientific Course. Alfred Paul Seibert Fred is one of those easy-going, frank, good-natured, yet not slovenly, persons. How he does love to reason, plead, debate— any- thing — over the meaning of a word, his pur- pose bei ng to maintain for our national lan- guage the correct counter-poise (he says |. With his easy, half-shuffling gait, he travels right along, drawing little attention from that conglomerate mass, the general public, but keeping his mind fixed on his destination and his ultimate purpose. Fred ' s record is as clean as a whistle, no malevolent intentions ; yet he, once in a while, gets the name of Dub — same as the rest of us. General Course; Boys ' Club (2, 3); Tech.

Hence, good fortune has aiways been her portion. From extreme youth she gave evidence of a re- markable precocity, and even now displays rare intelligence for a Senior ( the Juniors say). Aside from her studies, which are never neglected, Hans is publishing a small but complete volume entitled How to Conduct Oneself as a Lady in Society. General Course ; Glee Club and Chorus (1, Eloise Jane Walker We remember her as a charming conversa- tionalist, of attractive personality and real sincerity. She is characterized by common sense and reliability, which have given her an excellent record in school. She is demo- cratic at heart, though possibly misunderstood in regard to this, for she has no desire to re- main apart from the common herd. Add to these qualities excellent dancing, and she be- comes a welcome companion at informal gath- erings or tete-a-tete.

William Benjamin Angland Men of few words are the best men ; therefore, it is apparent to Bill that few should be his words. He has sorta liked our school since he entered, and the school has liked him well enough to let him travel his untroubled way for a while longer than it will take the risk of keeping most of us. He seems to be a casualty of Cupid, and ' tis whispered he possesses a remarkable asset in those genial gi ' ey eyes. We can ' t antici- pate for him — he is an unknown quantity and we dislike prophecy, but we believe his road will be paved with good intentions, cordiality, and brotherhood. How successful he will tra- verse that road lies in the future. General Course; Track (2). Edna Fay Robison Sober, steadfast and demure might have been written to describe this lovable little creature, who has gone her own way and hindered no one from going his.

She has hair that curls coaxingly around a lit- tle finger, a laugh like the call of spring, and the charm of fine manners. She is noted for her proficiency in keeping little boys interested in horrid old studies, and for this reason claims she is going to be a school teacher. This dream, we fear, will never be realized ; for Helen, though not overly frivolous, will soon tire of the steady routine of the life of a school teacher. We recommend, instead, the exciting occupation of the average housewife. General Course. Entered from Carter High School (4). Robert Dickinson Warden A fantastic mentality, an erratic disposition, an entirely dif ' runt composition, character- ize this son of Epicurus. Although his willing- ness to worry need not to be doubted, worry is a stark impossibility, and his crust re- mains undented. There is a fine intellect here, but study is a closed book which has been closed during his school career. On the outside he is of a wandering temperament, a good sport, and a good athletic reporter. Most of Great Falls High School ' s athletic publicity and much of Great Falls city support is due to the efforts of Bob. He ' s everyone ' s friend and no man ' s enemy and perhaps a little misunderstood.

She is a queen of parlor sports, and in spite of the fact that she is not overly inclined to activity, she has managed to plug through the four years without having to be inocu- lated for flunking.

You might think this sums up Rose ' s whole character, but it doesn ' t. It doesn ' t tell how her Irish wit asserts itiself every once in a while or how we enjoy hearing her clever stories told in a fascinating voice. Irish maintains that a Senior should never worry about what people say about ' Seniors, but should just stop to think what they would say if they were mind-readers.

But amon r the Gems in our school there is one that can stand alone. It is that rare Ben who dazzles us with his witticisms and versatility. Let it be said that if we had nothing more than his smile. Great Falls would still have the finest piece of Art in America.

Florence Mae McLaughlin She ' s a rather petite young lady, with a slightly hesitant manner and oriental eyes. History has small interest to her, but the present never ceases to enthrall her, and to pass it pleasantly is her highest ambition. Flossie prefers home science to the fine arts or to the classics — but don ' t think for one minute she is a bit slow or old-fashioned, and certainly she is not domestic — to excess. She is always willing to help when you ' re a little in the lurch and always, under all circum- stances, filled with good fellowship.

S. a group of children, seeking education. In the front of this vociferous mob walked Genevieve. She followed the paths of Latin two years, but after thoroughly dividing Gaul into its three parts, she decided to change her route in favor of that of the land of toreador trousers. Now Genevieve contemplates returning to the wil- derness with her band of followers, bearing witih her the closely guarded sheepskin, which was the object of her expedition.

William Mondik Quiet at all times, and never more so than when the teacher calls upon him to recite. He has silently followed the leaders through the four years of his high school life and is now ending up with the best of them. He has been a consistent supporter of class ac- tivities, and at every class meeting, we could count on his presence. While he has never taken part in athletics, he has strongly sup- ported class sports and is a firm upholder of school policies. Commercial Course. M. Verna Daley Teton High School mourned its loss, and the G. F. H. S. rejoiced over its gain when this lucky-go-happy, genuine girl packed up her books and her dancing slippers and joined our worthy selves in the pursuit of knowl- edge and a diploma. The quizzical expres- sion on her face seems always to say, Don ' t you wish you knew? One may look in vain for one gray hair which can be attributed to worry over her studies. She would much rather spend her evenings at dancing than to stay at home juggling the binomial theory or figuring out the weight of an electron. General Course.

Who knows but that we girls will say in a few years, Do you really like my new gown? Designed by Lucile, did you say ? Dear me, no ! By Mademoiselle Esther, la grande modiste de Paris. Alto- gether Esther is a talented miss ? who com- mands both our respect and our admiration, and she is a dandy pal and a good worker. Her quiet reserve charms us while it keeps us aloof. She also has the rare gift of silence when silence is fitting.

In every phase of his life ' s activities this asset assorts itself. He never meets defeat, because he travels in the opposite direction.

She fights to the end and al- ways starts the fight ; what ' s more, she does all the fighting. She defies the slammer and emerges in all her glory, waving the banner of victory.

Very little of his body remains intact for graduation day, but nevertheless he is an earnest, ambitious worker in ath- letics and a welcome friend to all new jokes. He is a self-convicted demon with the ladies and general utility man at social functions. She says he has wonderful eyes ; though, being of the masculine gender, we have never had personal observation and can ' t say.

There is a most delightful antagon- ism between her and some of her superiors in authority, and Toddie has waged many a battle in her own offense.

She boasts of being directly descended from the ancient Norsemen and even claims that one of her ancestors had a hand in the dis- covery of America long before Columbus made himself famous by revealing to the world that we existed. During the vacation she spends her time in the country. This probably ac- counts for the bloom on her cheeks, the cheer- fulness of her nature, and the sweetness of her temper.

Perhaps she is a little too exclusive in an age when democracy is the word : but, nevertheless, she is friendly and cheerful to her intimates. She is an excel- lent student and posse3ses a keen intellect, which, coupled with a charming manner, makes her a congenial and agreeable com- panion. Classical Course.

Strong as an ox she be, but Frankie ' s strength is not confined to muscular activity, and a glimpse at her grade card will show her to be one of our best students. Speaking of experts in the ranks of Latin followers, the high moguls make way for Frances. To the casual observer, she might seem shy, but her autograph book looks like a dictionary.

The great loss suffered by the farming industry was the high school ' s gain, for those long legs and broad shoulders have made an ad- mirable filler for a football suit.

And be- sides it ' s a lovely shiny black. That isn ' t all either, for although she very seldom talks with us, she has been able to charm us (as much as we are, in this age of obtuseness, capable of being charmed). We were a little awed too : not much but a little. When she is not spending her time with one very for- tunate youth, she can usually be heard sing- ing a lyric, sonnet, or ballad in a clear, sweet soprano voice. General Course.

Mr. Carl Albrecht, sir, a man slow to anger and silent of tongue ; like Lincoln in the courage of his convictions and like Diogenes in his despair of men.

Once he has arrived at a decision, even T. N. T. cant move this firm believer in the rights of a man to stand by his own convictions.

Looking back over our many efforts, we feel that we have accomplished our aims with a reasonable amount of success, leaving in our memory a lasting impression which will become dearer and dearer as time moves by. In the initial period of this, our high school training course, we were somewhat inexperienced in handling the instruments which were placed in our hands, but we quickly realized the value of aiming high, of hitching our wagon to a star, and of balancing our mental inexperience with greater physical exertion. But even at that, we shot wide of the mark. In our second period we renewed our efforts to hit the target of our ambitions, with redoubled strength and confidence gained from our first year ' s experience. Still aiming high, we met with greater success, striking closer to the inner circle. An increased accuracy and diligence marked our third period, and we moved still closer to the final mark, but with sadly depleted numbers. The day of graduation marks the close of the fourth period, with a shaft in the bull ' s eye, and ours, the coveted prize, the precious sheep- skin. In our brief period of happiness in high school we have established a record in the classroom, and on the athletic field, as well as in other school activities, of which we may be justly proud, and one that succeed- ing classes may well strive to equal. To many of us, our school days are over; to some of us, fortune grants that we pursue the path of higher education. To each there lies ahead a vast, unexplored field; to each there remains a tender feeling of devotion for the school left behind as we enter the more serious struggle with the grim old world. Yet whatever the path, whatever the goal, Aim high. And now for you: I pray the prayer the Easterners do: May the peace of Allah abide with you. Where e ' er you stay, where e ' er you go May the beautiful palms of Allah grow. Through days of labor, through nights of rest May the peace of Allah make you blest. So I touch my heart as the Easterners do, May the peace of Allah abide with you. -JAMES CLARK TURNER l 923 sixty-seven $ fi THE ROUNDUP A CHRONICLE OF THE SENIOR CLASS %i By ROBERT DICKINSON WARDEN.

And this host numbered seven and three hundred strong. 2 — And they rejoiced in their trium- phant victory, for, even now, they had passed through seemingly long ages of servitude in the grades. 3 — And it was so that this multitude did number a score and a hundred of sons, and of daughters, one hundred and seven and four score. 4 — And they entered into the gates of the Leaderl and were, each and ev- ery one, assigned to duties in this court? of this Leader. 5 — And the young LionsS roared after thei r prey- and sought, thereby, to cre- ate much disturbance and riots. 6 — And the laws were lain before the eyes of these Saplings5 by the High Priests6 of the Templet 7 — When the time had come for all the multitude to gather in the common meeting placeS, it came to pass that the favored Disciples were balloted and chosen. And this custom was well pre- serveth in after years. 8 And we heard a great cry from the Leader cf the Temple, saying, Woe to the rebellious children, that take counsel not unto me, for they shall come to understanding and great sor- row, and shall barn the doctrine of custom and servility. 9 — And all but a few shaketh and re- solveth themselves to the command of the Leader. 10 — And because of the extreme in- nocence and also ignorance of these BabieslO, they were made to become learned and wise in the studies of his- tory, and knowledge of their own lan- guage 11; and also the tongue of Julius Caesar, in which he graphed his Com- mentaries , and of the signs and num- erals then known as Algebra. 11— And the Stronger Childrenl3 of the Temple looked down on them and said unto them : Get ye out of our way and make room for us to pass.

And it came to pass that they were not green. 13 — And it was elected that suitable pins should adorn their frocks and it was said they should be of tinl but it was not so, for the Children were well supplied 18, and they were wrought of gold. 14 — And Lo ! Those which had shewn themselves worthy in tha minds of the Priests were endowed with marks, known as Passing Grades ; and others were proffered with pink slips, carefully writ upon strips of papyrus. 15— And the first were said to be ad- vanced in the first year ' s work. 16 — And the sun did set upon the morning and the evening of the first year. CHAPTER II. BOOK OF SECUNDUS. 1 — Verily, Verily, I say unto ye. and when the month of September again approached ; Behold ! there again en- tered the gates of the mighty institu- tion this same multitudel, but these numbered but ninety-nine and two hun- dred. 2 — New it was in the year of our Lord, 1920, and the Saplings- were no longer Saplings but they were grown unto Lions3, young but wild after their ninety days of rest. 3 — And it came to pass that when these returneth. a new High Priest oc- cupied the High Court and his Chris- tian name was Louis G. Cook. 4 — And he had come out of the East at the call of the citizens4 and was now duly appointed to watch over these Children, to right their wrongs and lead them not into the paths of evil. 5 — And he came saying, Repent ye : for your times of folly and frivolity are past. And, enlikened unto our oth- er Leader5, he saith : Woe unto them  9 2 3 sixty-eight K THE ROUNDUP who shall wantonly trespass or reprove my biddings. And we did not so do. 6— And cf these Lions, there re- turneth one hundred, a score and three of sons, and of daughters, one and one half hundred and six. 7 — For those that were not endowed with those symbols called Passing grades returneth not, but wandered elsewhere. 8 — And, thereby, in those who did returneth to the Temple, there was en- flateth unto their brainletsG a strange conceited air and they were of know- ing of this confused spirit. 9 — And their name was called Soph- omores, which is a Greek word, mean- ing Wise Fools. 10 — And there came unto the Temple the cry of a warrior, and Behold! for next day reprisal showed bared skulls and there were carried weary limbs. 11 — And when the High Pri3st be- came known of the battle7 he called his Children unto him, for he was in great wroth. And he saith. Suffer yourself unto repentance and we shall, some day meet in fullS on the gory athletic field. And this was called Jambor:e Day. 12 — And it came to pass that some of these ycung Lions ' did betake them- selves to new pursuits9, and in these, a number became proficient. Some, in- deed, were sorely wronged, saith they. 13 — And the sun waxed warm, and Lo ! the corn was planted and the sum- mer came, and Behold ! the High Priest maketh the Temple again vacant and scattereth abroad the inhabitants there- of and therefrom. CHAPTER III. BOOK OF TRANSITUS. 1— And it came to pass, in the year of our Lord, 1921, and in the second year of the reign of Louis G. Cook, there returneth to this almighty Tem- ple cf Learning two hundred of souls. And they were welcomed once again into the folds of the High Priest. 2 — And they came to be called Jun- iors. And they were Juniors. 3 — And now, new fields of sciencel and languages were entered into by them. 4 — And they looked down upon the new SapHngsS and created thereby a haughty air. And they saith : Let them alone, for they be blind, and if blind leaders do leadeth the blind, then they will all, in one great accord, be- 1— Chem., S.

And they were then accepted into the arms of Miss Kocken, and Miss Curtis does now fold them in tender care. 5 — And verily I say unto ye that their numbers were lessened, for many had wearied i)y the wayside and fallen thereunto. And they were without strength of limb and body to continue. 6 — And, in the last annum of the last year of the rule of Louis G. Cook, their sizel was also remarked upon, there returneth but five and ninety of sons ; and daughters there were count- ed to be five and a hundred. 7— And the High Priest called his Children unto his Grace and saith, I have compassion for thee, for thou hast followed me these long times. Go ye now and prepare festivities and cele- bration. And they went thereto and had a great feasts in the Coach room6. 8 — And it came to pass that the mul- titude was of all great oneness? and there was strength and composure in their midst. 9 — And the year was resolveth as one cf great feast and prominence. And it was so for the people of the village marveled all. For, hear ye, now this : Never before was such great feasting and rejoicing in all the history and memory of the great Temple. 10— And it came to pass that many of our sons were called upon for serv- ice upon the fields. And, Verily, Verily, as I repeat to ye— they did vanquish the Butte warriors and other armiesS of great strength. 11— And our sons were ordained and commended by all for bodily speedlO and they did defeat the hordes of en- emy from the nationsll wide. And honor was, thereby, bestowed upon them. 12 — And yet another call was sounded and our sons played that game of lodging a thing in an already prepared placel2. 13 — Howbeit, among these dwelt many daughters who did excell in bod- ily skill and strength . 14— And the High Priest again called his Children unto him, and he saith : Who, say ye, that I am ? And they answereth : Our Leader, great King, and where thou goest, so will thine lambs pursue. 15 — And he saith. Verily, Verily, and ye shall exalt in great feast and I shall b.- jf great service to ye. And was he that. 16 — Now, it came to pass, in the month t£ June, that in a great CourtH %i « 3 sixty-nine THE ROUNDUP % there occurred a great dramal5. And were these Seniors afraid of riot and disturbance. 17 — And, of a sudden, a sharp cry arose from the still midst, and there was great noise and clamor. And gifts of the rarest order were presented to the strange peoples on the stage as token of the Junior love for this odd and queer tribe, and there was a mul- titudinous cry from the midst of those of our own colorl6. And the night was turned to Junior night. 18 — And a great festivity was pre- pared for the Seniors by them and great pomp and splendor was done in dancing on the floor. And it was pro- claimed a great success by all — even thereunto by the superannuated Seniors. 19 — And the evening and the morn- ing were the third year. CHAPTER IV. BOOK OF EXODUS. 1 — And the time came for the return of the Juniors. And Lo ! For it was in the year of our Lord, 1922. And of the great multitude which had entered through the gates of the Temple four annums ago. Behold ! Verily, I say unto ye that of these there were fewer, for, even now, a great host had fallen by the sides of the paths and did they re- maineth in humble spirits. 2 — And, of this crowd which did re- turneth. Verily, I Sware ! There were counted to be but three score and three of sons ; and two score and one hun- dred of daughters. 3 — When these returneth, they were welcomed by the glad heart of a new High Priest in the Court of the Temple. And his Christian name was Bruce E. Millikin. 4 — For, in our absence during the mid-year rest, did the Exalted Priest of the other term vanish ; and rumor does have it that great are his works in the Minneapolis City, where he cares for a more abundant flock of lambs. 5 — And the new Rulerl did come from Butte High to fill the vacant chair. For great is his name in all the Northwest as a teacher and as a leader. 6 — And he shewed himself to be fully wise in all things, and his creed was as of his fore-Leaders : Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and writ grievousness which they have prescribed. For, even as I tell ye, they shall be called tyrants and they will ever lack influence in this, mine Court. 1— See Bk.

So the Chief4 of our tongue did revel in calling them, a nomine, Dubs. 9 — And Dub is the brief-5 of Dub- lin, in Ireland, so saith Noah6. How- beit, the Irish and the Welsh ever did conflict and quarrel amongst them- selves. 10— And the Great Priest7 did sum- mon these Seniors unto him, and he saith ; I have here, my Children, an en- sign8, which will be presented to ye when ye have fully completed your Exodus. For, when this very year is passed, ye shall be well learned in all the knowledge of this Temple, and ye shall no more returneth. Now, be goodly, my Children, and ample prize will be yours. And it was so. 11 — And this was a second year of re- joicing and celebration. And the most learned of our tongue and studies9 was named as Editor-in-Chief of the Roundup. And his staff numbered many, and goodly was their work. Ver- ily, I say unto ye — this annual is more advanced than all before it, in the eyes of the critics. 12 — And now come we to the bud- ding timelO, and we do seriously grieve our untimely departure from this stately Temple of Learning and In- struction. 13 — And the time for the great Com- mencement week did cometh in June. And much festivity and celebration was done. 14 — Behold ! Each and every one Sen- ior who did so become worthy of Pass- ing Grades in the eyes of the Priests, did receive these symbols. And the rest falleth back yet another twelve month or do indulge in summer study. 15 — And the greatest of aim gave a great speech, and each and every one of the higher orderly did raise their voices ahigh. 16 — And all feasted with their fol- lowers and also did they raise havocl4 in the great halU5. 17— And merriment and good will rested on the minds and hearts of all the Children. 18 — But the Saplingsl6 were not made to come because of their years. 19 — And the ensignsi? were evenly 1923 w seventy = THE ROUNDUP scattereth, and joy and unconfinement reigned throughout supreme. 20 — And is our success due to the good trust and noble guidance of Miss Johanna Velikanje, our honored Leader, who dealt with us as the Disciples did extend care to the Depressed. 21 — For she is our Rock, our For- tunes, our Fortress, our Strength — and in her will we cast a great portion of our love forever. She who is so worthy to be much praised. 22 — And to the Priests all are good will and gracious thanks extended. For our sins were many and our misgiv- ings abundant, but they did lift us to higher Jevels for our names sake, and did they such with kind hearts and much sympathy. 23 — And, Verily, as I say it unto ye, the sun did sink into the clouds, and the fourth twelve month did recede — even as an Exodus. And the departure from the Temple was filled with deep sorrow and FOR-EVER-MORE ! %i page seventy-one THE ROUNDUP CLASS GIFTS AND BEQUESTS %n E, the class of 1923, in view of the fact that we are not dead, dying, or expecting to die, and for that reason do not care ta make a will, nevertheless do wish to bequeath to the classes under us and succeeding us, qualities and personal property of which they have but little and of which we deem they need much, in order to achieve distinction. Collectively, we do lovingly bequeath to the Juniors the divine right of kings, which is the sacred and inalienable right to flirt with the janitors, doubt the omnipotence of the faculty, and disturb the peace of the assembly. We leave to the Sophomores a profound pity for their ignorance and for their inability to overcome their condition as long as they remain in that benighted class. We leave to the Freshmen our benediction, and trust that they will profit from the knowledge that they are therein favored by the gods. We leave the Juniors to Miss Harrisson, trusting they will learn to write a notebook ; to Mr. Dean, with the expressed desire that they may be able to draw the new High School; to Miss Learning, with a profound hope that they may tread safely through the green pastures of French verbs ; to Miss Buckmaster, with the hope that they may get the cards adjusted to come out at the right time; to Miss Stone with the fervent prayer that they correct their own themes; and to Miss Houliston, begging that they be taught a co-tangent from an angle. It is with great reluctance that the Senior girls of the Girls ' Club proudly settle the responsibility of caring for the School ' s French orphan for the next year on those coming after them. The Senior male members of Mr. Pruitt ' s class are especially par- ticular that the petrified kitty which they originated be left to the playful incoming Frosh and be mounted next to Venus in the assembly for silent entertainment during the long and arduous study hours. Individually, the following Seniors do reluctantly relinquish their loved personal characteristics and personal property to whatever underclassmen seem best qualified to bear them without strain: Russell Stewart presents his shyness and silent disposition to Jerry Haggerty. «, To Kid Marzetta, Albert Fergus casts his long nursed desire to be a big man. To all sentimental Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen, (if they are old enough to appreciate them,) Bob Warden donates his many and several love disappointments. ' 9 2 3 seventy-two X = THE ROUNDUP A To John Murrill, Alex Kilroy leaves his misdirected energies and wild- eyed enthusiasm. Carl Rippel gives his everlasting talk (Bull Durham) to Lewis Beers, Clark Turner wills a dearly earned scholarship standard to Roswell Leavitt. Hugh Bergold thoughtfully bequeaths his hard earned ability to create riots and general disturbances to Tommy Evans. To Del Lowry, Hawk Shaw presents a bag of meal for mush. Helen Smock donates her wealth of golden hair to Isabel McVay, and her foolishness to Fannie Mady and Gladys Ledbetter. Spud Murphy and Frances Loftus bequeath their dancing predilection to Corry Sharpe and Helen Conover. Joe Howard relinquishes his radical proclivities to Carl Rosenbaum. Barth leaves his passionate yellow shirt to Al Cordrey. Dolly Preston transfers her looking glass and vanity case to Frances Fuson. Bernard Cuddihy presents all he graduates possessed of to William Haney. Can ' t find any Senior to leave Dan Dawson a girl. Bob Lowney confers his studious disposition upon George Longeway. Art Olson donates his qualifications as a tank driver to anyone who wants it. Blake Westgard leaves his ability to dominate the weaker sex to Danny Lenny. Bill Cowan gives his shaving set (unused) to Carl Thisted. Thelma Gaylord wills her propensity to kid the Freshmen to her sister Beth. The Roundup leaves the continuation of the Roundup and competition with this year ' s masterpiece to the ignorant and debased members of the Junior class. And last, Miss Johanna Velikanje sadly bequeaths to Miss Ethel Curtis the most hopeless and thankless task in the world — that of class Adviser to Seniors. x 923 seventy-three £ THE ROUNDUP THE JUNIOR CLASS Joe Charteris President Beth Gaylord Vice-President •923 - sevcnty-f :ur r THE ROUNDUP % THE JUNIOR CLASS Marie Tebeau Secretary La Verne Regan Treasurer •923 seventy-five r THE ROUNDUP THE SOPHOMORE CLASS George Kruse President Effie McCallum Vice-President seventy-six ' 923 fi THE ROUNDUP THE SOPHOMORE CLASS fc Eloise Barker Secretary Arvid Woodahl Treasurer ' | tSmk ' • }•■ il ■--■.; mv emMP fir . fjp y£ 9 2 3 % seventy-seven THE ROUNDUP %1 THE FRESHMAN CLASS Tom Stewart Lease President Nora Lowry Vice-President  923 seventy-eijjht THE ROUNDUP %1 THE FRESHMAN CLASS Loraine Coy Treasurer I-Ereekt Gregory Lux Secretary ' 923 seventy-nine £- THE ROUNDUP eighty THE ROUNDUP % TRADITIONS •9 2 3 eighty-one THE ROUNDUP WHY WE ' RE HERE %1 % The First Schoclhouse in Great Fails j|N the summer of 1885, the citizens of Great Falls, in Chouteau County, called a mass meeting in one of the old and long for- gotten public halls of the town for the purpose of determining how, without funds to any large amount, a building could be erected for the instruction of the ever-growing youth of this fair Electric City. It was unanimously agreed that there must be a school- house of some kind the following fall, but the problem of raising necessary funds for the proposed plan was a subject of concerted effort by the lead- ing squires and influential lights of the township. The site for the building, which was one block west of the present Lincoln school on Third Avenue South and Sixth Street, was donated by the townsite company, and the materials and work were apportioned among the citizens. There was erected a one-story, wooden building at a cost of approxi- mately $900, and its dimensions were only twenty by forty feet. The date of completion was somewhat delayed, but the first Community Christmas celebration was held in the new schoolhouse. The first board of education comprised Charles Wegner, H. P. Rolfe, and Dr. A. G. Ladd. The first meeting of this body was held in a rear room of a saloon on the Main Street. We have no particular record of this historical and eventful meeting except that it is noteworthy that business under pressure was dealt with in the conflab from sunset until sunrise, and the three members alternated in preparing stimulants and food during the dusky hours so that the board might remain in continuous session. The first teacher was the Reverend James Largent, who taught dur- ing the week and preached on Sunday. There were about forty pupils under his instruction the first school term. In 1886, the growth in the number of students reached a total which made it necessary to build the present Whittier school on Third Avenue and Eighth Street North. Shortly ' 923 eighty-two Jj f = THE ROUNDUP A after this the present Longfellow building was erected at Ninth Street and Ninth Avenue South. It was in 1891 that the older building of the two now comprising the high school was built, but before then, there were a few students who were taught in a building where there were mixed grades. This was the first year that the high school was conducted as a separate department of the public school system. The first graduating class in the Latin course com- prised Gertrude Anderson, Lulu Armstrong, Maud McNeil, and Josephine Trigg. This was in 1893, and there was an enrollment of 23 in the high school. However, it was not until the first of the school year in 1892 that students of high-school rank first took up their abode in the new stone building, which was then the pride of the community. The first teachers in the Great Falls public schools system other than the Reverend James Largent, were Miss Helen Edgerton, Miss Ewing, Miss Jessie Rich, and Miss Virginia Fisher. Miss Edgerton was principal of the Longfellow school at that time. The only surviving member of this small staff of teachers who played the role of pioneers in this small western, prairie hamlet and who is still connected with the local schools is Miss Rich, who, at present, is instructor in the Sixth grade at the Whittier school. The high-school course at that time was of three years. Latin and other studies in the present classical course were the standard compounds of that first curriculum, and it is well for those now in school that such is the case. For instance, the third year of Latin comprised four orations from Cicero ' s works and three books of Vergil. Commencement exercises in June of 1 893 were held in the Grand Opera House, where they will be again this year, and the entire community turned out to witness the first celebration of its kind in the history of the City of Great Falls. There were fifty children present, including several from Sand Coulee. The Reverend Mr. Largent was chairman and Phil Gibson, secretary. Albert Huy and Beachley Bros, and Hickory furnished the trees and decorations. Mrs. Ladd, Mrs. Largent and Mrs. Pratt solicited money for presents and Professor 0. C. Mortson was Santa Claus. Things at that time were, indeed, similar to those expressed in Stanley ' s Old Home Town. At present, with the addition, in 1914, of the larger brick annex in the same block of land as the older structure, there are sixty-eight rooms, an auditorium seating 1,200 and containing a good sized stage, a large gymnasium, and a faculty of 46 instructors. Surely no finer contribution to the future progress and prosperity of Great Falls and Montana can be made than an adequate public school sys- tem and an efficient teaching staff. It will be through the sincere efforts of Great Falls business men, Superintendent S. D. Largent, and succeeding Boards of Education that the present school system of this city will be developed, expanded and made, more than ever before a model in the eyes of the state. •923 eighty-three THE ROUNDUP % THE JUNIOR PROM 1922 PATRONS AND PATRONESSES Mr. and Mrs. Fred Black Mr. and Mrs. W.

Cook in 1922, has grown greatly in popularity and bids fair to become a long standing and cherished tradition. In 1923 several novelties were introduced into its observance by Mr. Millikin. The object of the day is to perpetuate the fading scenes, costumes, and person- ality of the Old West, combining entertainment and the subscription campaign for the Roundup. Co-operation in the campaign was noteworthy this year, special credit going to the class advisers and ranch bosses, who gave time and effort to the success of the movement. The four high-school classes were divided into as many outfits, each outfit with a boss, Mr. Millikin being chief boss and owner of the ranch. The prize was a cup offered by the student council. The inexperience of the Freshmen and Sophomores told against them, several of their mavericks having inno- cently consented (by coercion) to be branded by the hustling Junior rustlers, whereas they should have carried the triangle F or the S25. The Junior and Senior classes, with the Diamond W and 7 UP brands respectively, ran a very close race, until, five minutes before the close of the corral, the Juniors entered the proud possessor of enough mavericks to swing the contest, thereby winning not only the cup, which was to be engraved with their brand, the Diamond W, but also everlasting glory and the lcve of the Staff, to whom each new subscription seemed a blessing of Providence. ' 923 eighty-six THE ROUNDUP eighty-seven I THE ROUNDUP %1 THE SHED DOOR You all have passed through the old shed door on the west side of the building. Has the thought entered your mind that for years and years it has silently watched the many classes come and go, silently standing like the pyramids of Egypt, listening to the tales of woe and happiness which are spun by the students who have gathered within its shelter? Certainly there is no other landmark around the school grounds which is so widely known as the old shed door. All over the weather beaten walls may be found initials and graduating dates, intermingled with other in- scriptions, which have been carved by the members of the classes which have passed through its door during years gone by. It has been the common meeting ground for the school sages, who gather at noon before the doors are open to discuss the pressing questions of the hour. These questions vary in importance from the team ' s chance of winning the next athletic encounter to the divers personal tastes for different teachers. In after years, when we look back over our school days in G. F. H. S., among our quaintest and most pleasant memories will be the times we have spent in the shade of the old shed door. ' 923 eighty-eight ( THE ROUNDUP %! THE SENATE-FORUM DEBATE Senate Team Among the traditions of the Great Falls High School may well be placed the annual State-Forum debate. Here is a contest in which two evenly balanced, well primed teams engage in a veritable verbal battle, the so-called weaker sex representing the Forum, firmly entrenched on one side of the stage and the forces of the Senate on the other. Such was ' the setting on the morning of April 5, 1923, just after the Easter vacation, when the two met in honorable combat, with the Senate upholding the affirmative, and the Forum, the negative, of the question, Resolved that the French invasion of the Ruhr is unjustifiable. On the Forum team were Florence Cooper, Effie McCullum, and Geraldine Gray. The Senate was represented by Carl Rosenbaum, Russell Cox, and Ward Miller. The speakers, on the whole, maintained the dis- cussion in a logical manner and relied rather on reasoning than on senti- mentality to make their points. The Senate team, by reason of a greater general knowledge of the question, was awarded the decision. eighty-nine THE ROUNDUP THIRTY YEARS OF G. F.

During the year the Club has studied musical history from the beginning of recorded music to the present day. They have also studied composers and their compositions.

The High School Orchestra, an active association of twenty amateur musicians, consisting of twelve violins, two saxophones, a cornet, flute, clarinet, and drums, has had considerable public work and several high school appearances. They have played at two Masonic banquets, the Tuesday Musical Club, the Rainbow Hotel, at the Junior and Senior plays, given two high-school assembly programs, and a program has been broad- casted from the Tribune. It is easily concluded that this organization has made efficient use of its time to the benefit of the Great Falls public and to the School. x 923 ninety-eight THE ROUNDUP ART l 9 2 3 %n ninety-nine THE ROUNDUP The Art Room The success the Staff has anticipated for this year ' s Roundup will be due, to a really considerable extent, to the labor of John W. Dean and of the Art Department of this school. Since Mr. Dean ' s entrance into the department in 1921, he has made many appreciable changes and has enlarged and broadened the scope of the art classes. Two prizes were won last year at the State Fair in the Tuberculosis poster entries. Mr. Dean is a pupil of Mr. Pedro J. Lemos, B. A., of the University of California, and brings to this school an intimate acquaintance with art study. % The Art Class 9 2 3 one hundred THE ROUNDUP %n DRAMATICS  9 2 3 = one hundred one n THE ROUNDUP % Vivian Huhn Great effort has been exerted for the last two years by Vivian Huhn to establish a dramatic department in the Great Falls High School in the nature of a dramatics workshop. Her efforts have been along the line of the Little Theatre movement, to build up a small cast of intellectual ability, to bring out the creative instinct she believes inherent in them, and make them a creditable representation of the school. It is an exclusively Senior course, which takes up voice culture, dra- matic art, and public speaking. It might be termed psychology applied to the voice. Excellent amateur work has been shown by the class in the production of the plays, The Neighbors and Merely Mary Ann. The former, a closely united series of character studies, very difficult of interpretation, was played with ability and success on Roundup Day. It is significant that it was some time before the students could £rase the lovable Inez and the simple, sentimental Peter from their minds. Merely Mary Ann was presented Commencement week as the Senior class play. Observation of rehearsals heralds certain success. It is a comedy by Israel Zangwill, with excellent humor and a consistent, although troubled, love theme. l 923 one hundred two THE ROUNDUP %n THE JUNIOR PLAY COME OUT OF THE KITCHEN By A. E.

L. CROUCH M. L. Crouch came to Great Falls nine years ago with a successful record made in his college, where he broke, for four consecutive years, the Missouri State records in both low and high hurdles. Since he has had charge of the athletics here he has worked with his whole heart and soul for the ideal of clean sportsmanship, which cedes to the best man the victory, as opposed to the old and fast dying order of Win at Any Price . Coach ' s first interest has always been in the welfare of the man, the love of victory being subordinated in cases where the physical consequences might be harmful or where the manhood of the player was in the balance with low trickery. No athletes in the state of Montana have won such praise for clean sportsmanship as have the proteges of this coach. When Mr. Crouch closes his work here this year, he leaves an efficient, clean, noble, record. ASSISTANT COACH W. J. SHIRLEY Our assistant coach entered the school this year as a new man, but before the year was well on its way every student knew and admired Bill Shirley, not only for his ability as a coach, but as a general good fellow. He was coach of the Billings team when it defeated Great Falls by the huge score of 81-0. We forgive him for this, because we like him too well to hold a grudge. He has demonstrated his ability as an athletic director, especially as a mentor of the pass. •923 one hundred eight THE ROUNDUP FOOTBALL SEASON OF 1922 FOREWORD The prospects for a championship football squad were far below par in 1922. Of the fifty husky men who re- ported for football the first day, only three were letter men of the previous year. Coach Crouch and Assistant Coach Shirley ran these raw recruits through stiff prac- tices in order to round them into shape for the coming season. A great deal of credit is due to the squad and to Captain Baier for the record which this team established. A schedule of eleven games confronted the chasers of the pig skin and ten of these proved that the team of ' 22 could win under all conditions. The team of ' 22 wishes to extend its appreciation to Baier, Captain ne many business men, clubs, alumni, and students for their sterling support and backing. GAMES The opening game of the season was played with Belt on the new High School field. Belt put up a good fight, but the husky Great Falls team proved too much for them, as the huge count of 133-0 plainly indicated. This game gave the coaches ample opportunity to see how the squad would act under fire. Our next game with Stanford was played at Earling Park because there was no fence around the new High School field. This game proved to be little more than a track meet, although Stanford put up a stiff contest. Again the husky eleven run up a record score over the century mark to their opponent ' s zero. Big Sandy, our next opponent, did not live up to the reputation that had preceded her. A good brand of football was displayed by both teams. Doshia Shultz proved to be the star for the visitors and earned the honor, of being the first man to cross the goal of the Great Falls team. Great Falls won this contest by the tally of 66-6. Great Falls left for a foreign field for the first time to play Butte Central. This game was one of the hardest fought games of the year for the Blue and White. Our team was a little over-confident, but soon found Steve Sullivan ' s warriors to be worthy opponents. Great Falls scored early in the first quarter, but could not penetrate the Miners ' defense for another goal. In the third quarter Keyes, the all-state halfback from Central, made a twenty-five yard run for Central ' s only score of six points. In the fourth period Great Falls opened her well directed aerial attack, which netted yard after yard.

F. fullback, dropped a thirty-yard kick for the winning three points. The final whistle found Lowry, our star end, on the one-yard mark, after completing a pass of thirty yards from Sohl. Nothing was known of the strength of Helena, who played here next, until she was defeated by the score of 64-0. The aerial attack of Helena baffled our backs, but was unable to score for the visitors. Varney and Rain, the two outstanding players of Helena, could not compete with the team work of the eleven-man team of Great Falls. This victory showed that Great Falls was to be reckoned with as contender for the state honors. Billings proved to be a far superior team than any one realized. Her aerial attack could not be fathomed by the local players and gave her the first touchdown. The score stood 6-6 at the end of the half, after G. F. had fought with all its brawn and weight to place the pig skin over for a count. In the third quarter, with Billings on our fifteen-yard line, Sohl intercepted a Billings pass and galloped 85 yards for the winning touch- down. This game showed that the husky line of Great Falls was able to hold its own although outweighed five pounds to the man. Butte High next invaded our field only to return home defeated after a hard-fought contest. This game was played in snow, and the weather was below zero. The slippery work of McMahon, a former wearer of the G. F., on a more slippery field, was dangerous at all times. Captain Baier and Thisted, at tackles, played wonderful football and kept Butte from scoring through the line, and our backs stopped many a well directed end run, with the elusive McMahon carrying the ball. But with all the un- favorable weather conditions, Great Falls emerged the victor by the score of 17-0. Lewistown was our next opponent away from home. The hard hitting and never-quit spirit of the Fergus men do not stand out by the score of 21-0. Both teams fought hard as the field was covered with frozen mud and the day was none too warm. Twice Fergus was on the one-foot mark of the Great Falls team, but could not force her way through our strong defense. Hober, our all state halfback, and Captain Baier and Lowry showed up as the outstanding men of the game, while Dobeius of Fergus was an exceptional player. By the decision of Mr. Scott, Great Falls was forced to play Harlowton at home, for the championship of the district. This game was an exception and was witnessed by the largest crowd ever assembled in this town for a contest of this kind. The first half ended with the wearers of the G. F. in the lead by a scant 2 point margin. In the second half Captain Baier blocked a punt and scooped it up to dash for a 20-yard run.

Circumstances forced Great Falls to play the hardest and longest foot- ball schedule known in high-school circles of Montana. By a ruling, we were forced to play Missoula, our conquerors of the previous year, for the semi-finals. This contest was also witnessed by the record crowd, and saw the visitors succumb to the tune of 30-0, instead of being the winners by a score of 3-0, as in the preceding year. Quarterback Kelly, of the visitors, proved to be the star of the contest with his beautiful open-field running. But his efforts were in vain when against a superior team, as is plainly indicated by the score. MILES CITY 6; GREAT FALLS 3 Once again the cross-eyed jinx sat on the goal posts of the Great Falls team and laughed to the tune of a three point defeat. On December 9 at Clark ' s Field, Great Falls suffered defeat for the state championship honors at the hands of the Custer County Eleven. This game was a classic throughout.

What critics classify as the heavier and smoother working of the two teams was the loser. Time after time Great Falls carried the ball 40 or 50 yards down the field into enemy territory only to lose it on downs. Great Falls failed to complete a single pass, while Miles City completed five for a total gain of 92 yards. One of these, which netted 38 yards and put the ball on Great Falls 12-yard line, paved the way for the only touchdown of the game and put over the winning three points. Eleven minutes after the game started, Sohl, of Great Falls, drove a place kick squarely between the goal posts for the first tally of the game. These three points loomed up with championship written all over them until late in the third quarter when Miles City completed her pass of 38 yards. The following touchdown was awarded after probably the closest decision ever given in this state. The kicking of Sweet, of Miles City, has never been equaled by a high- school player in this section of the country, but his work was offset by the hard hitting of Hober, of Great Falls, and the splendid work of Captain Baier. This game was clean and was witnessed by more than three thou- sand persons. one hundred fifteen THE ROUNDUP %1 THE SECOND TEAM MMH ljt« S 9 fc - ■ jf 9 H 1 f KH 40 i ICM QjJw- BTW 1 E t P ' M ■uHH H IT ■ Ll p?% ' , ' j B ' i _1jH B ' A Br ■ , B iQZ2™ ' -Tjjj Lr H a- J wW lW f BH K. •- ' gfcia(iSK ' SW(tiS : 1 Zfe T v i M H i Hg k B WKr ■■M J|jf 5 ■SSL Hw. wtBMtU ja g _ Si Milne, Coach Shirley, Gerber, Townsend, Westgard, McDermond, Duncan Hoggerty, Kruse, Willett, Tenney, Woodahl Haney, Harris, Chamberlain, Duncan The Team of 1922 wishes to extend its appreciation to the members of the Second Squad, who by furnishing staunch and loyal material for practice, enabled the First Team to uphold the honor of the Blue and White in the rough art of Football. •923 one hundred sixteen fi = THE ROUNDUP BASKETBALL FOREWORD Interest in the season for basketball for 1922-23 lagged somewhat as compared to the year before. This con- dition was due to two reasons: First, that the football season was continued for a longer time than in other years; and, second, that Great Falls was not expected to have a team as good as the one of the previous year. But the crowds soon began to fill the court to capacity, and during the District tournament many. were turned away from both the afternoon and evening games. J SEASON . With but two lettermen of the team of the previous %? year, Great Falls was not expected to place as high as Lowry, Captain she did in the District and State Tournaments. Captain Lowry at guard and Charteris at forward were the two men around whom Coach Crouch had to build a team. These two stellar players lived up to all expectations and showed at an advantage at aZI times. Great Falls played what could be termed two preliminary games with the Y. M. C. A. The Y won the first game and the Blue and White captured the other by a close margin. Shaw, a promising man, was hurt in one of these games and was out of the playing for a few weeks, circum- stances which hindered his ability to a great extent. Our first game was played with Fort Benton, who was touted to win as they had a team which was composed of the same men for three pre- vious years. They lived up to their reputation by taking this game by a score of 18-12. But not daunted by this defeat, our team beat Butte High the next night by the score of 12-6 in a slow game. Lewistown next played here and showed a fast passing team of no mean ability. By the work of Evans, the husky center from Raynesford, and Captain Lowry, the Fergus Five lost by the score of 24-12. Butte Central was our next opponent on the home floor and succumbed to defeat by the count of 11-17. This game was rough at times as both teams were out for blood. % Great Falls took her first trip of the season to play at Helena on Friday l 9 2 3 one hundred seventeen THE ROUNDUP %!

Great Falls led by one point at the end of the half, but in the last half the wonderful shooting of Kain won for the Capitalists. This game was hotly contested from start to finish, as the score of 26-20 plainly indicates. In this game Murphy, the diminutive forward, developed a questionable attack of appendicitis, which kept him out of the game for the rest of the s.eason. Butte Central was defeated the next night by the count of 11-22 in the slowest game of the season, caused by both teams having played a hard game the night before. Great Falls got away to a poor start at Fergus and barely nosed out the fast Fergus team by a 17-15 score. one hundred eighteen ' 923 THE ROUNDUP THE SECOND TEAM Turner, Captain ... 1 ite 1 1 . 1 ' ias ■ Joe Charteris Turner Ijams Barth Hart |Sv u « ' n X1AKT one hundred nineteen I THE ROUNDUP %n DISTRICT TOURNAMENT The District tournament held in Great Falls was a bigger success than any before held here. The crowds packed the gym to its capacity every night and afternoon. As this district has more representatives than any other district, many games of first class basketball were witnessed here. Great Falls and Fort Benton were thought to be the strongest teams in the district and both proved this to our unhappiness, as Fort Benton again won over us in the finals by the count of 17-11. Among the other teams of exceptional interest were Choteau, Big Sandy, Harlem, Centerville, Havre, and Cascade. Many brilliant players were seen in action here, among whom the more prominent were Lowry, Evans, and Charteris, of Great Falls; Woods, of Centerville; E. Dow, of Teton; Morger, Harris, Schoonover, and McLeish, of Choteau; the Schoultz brothers, of Big Sandy; and Lamphere, of Cas- cade. STATE TOURNAMENT Great Falls was invited to the State Tournament by the board of directors on account of the good showing made, regardless of the loss of the district championship. The papers at Bozeman gave Great Falls credit for having the best passing team at the tournament. We succeeded in capturing Helena in a fast game by the scant magrin of four points. This gave the home folks something to talk about as Helena was touted to be one of the best teams there. But all our hopes sank when in the second game Missoula conquered us by the score of 9-5. Our next game with Bozeman was a whirlwind from start to finish. The work of Olson and Lowry as guards kept Bozeman from scoring on short shots and as a result all of the baskets that Bozeman rang in were shot from the middle of the floor. We emerged the conquerers at the end of a 14-13 score. To determine whether we placed fifth or seventh we played Anaconda. This game was a walk away for Anaconda, as her men proved to be experts in the art of dropping the ball in from all angles and distances. one hundred twenty 1923 Duncan Senior THE ROUNDUP BOYS ' INTERCLASS Anderson Junior Wnndphl Sophmore Oakes Freshman % %= Baier Seltzer Duncan Rippel Chamberlain Coy Foster  9 2 3 one hundred twenty-one ° £ THE ROUNDUP GIRLS ' INTERCLASS %1 Knight Shoultz Junior Rowe Sophmore Cobb Freshman Cone Miss Foster Gaylord LaMere Rowe Emerieh Knight Fry one hundred twenty-two 1923 £ THE ROUNDUP TRACK FOREWORD To the 1922 Track Team belongs the honor of being the first State Champions for the Blue and White in the long period of twelve years.

On it were Captain Jimmie Charteris, Joe Charteris, Carlos Livers, George Sohl, Henry Brown, Delbert Lowry, Carl Thisted, Ernest Ijams, Victor Malmberg, and Marion Foster. Toe Livers, Captain SEASON OF ' 22 The team of ' 22 captured the state honors after a close race with Stev- ensville. We nosed them out by the scant margin of 37 V2 points to 31 points. Billy Gonser, our speed demon, who won individual honors the previous %n one hundred twenty-three [ THE ROUNDUP % year, was the sensation of the meet when he set a new record in the 440- yard dash in 53 seconds flat. Sickness kept him from placing in the 100- yard dash, but he captured third in the 50-yard run. Shaw, our husky weight man, placed fourth in the discus and tied for third in the shot put. Joe Livers, our veteran distance man, was running in true form and took second in the 440, and third in the one-half mile race. Jimmy Charteris, the find of the season, proved to be a great distance man. He won the half mile by a big margin and is expected to break the record next year. He also tied for second in the mile. Carlos Livers proved that he was a high jumper of no mean ability. By making five feet six inches he tied for third place and beat his best practice jump by two inches. Jimmy Cockrill, a fast man for his first year on the team, showed up well by taking fifth in the high hurdles and fourth in the low hurdles. Leverich, our other hurdler, who placed the year before, was having the same tough luck which had accompanied him for two years. In the semi-finals, Bryan fell, receiving several scratches, which developed into blood poisoning. He, however, entered the finals only to have his jinx trip him again and keep him from placing in the event which all looked for him to win.

We earnestly petition that you, the read- ers of this book, patronize the business firms whose names appear within and kindly men- tion the Roundup in your transactions. We wish to thank the A. C. M. Company, the Royal Milling Company and Mr. R. E. Cham- berlain of The Piegan Co., Inc., for special financial aid. one hundred fifty-five EASY PICKING FOR THE CLASS OF ' 24 To you boys and girls of the class of ' 24 who will be soliciting ads for the Roundup, I hereby announce at this time that the Great Falls Credit Exchange will take a full page. Wouldn ' t it be duck soup if all the advertisers would make you this promise and then LIVE UP TO IT? Of course, if my wife has to collect my Life and Accident insurance, you are not to expect this- promise to be kept, otherwise it goes. The only string to this promise is that a lot of you boys and girls in the Great Falls Schools — any of the schools — will try to win a $25.00 CASH PRIZE which we are offering for the best, original essay or article on the VALUE OF A GOOD CREDIT RATING This essay will be the copy for our 1924 ad and it must be short enough to go on the one page of the Roundup. The contest will end March 1, 1924. No poetry considered. It is all right for your fathers and mothers to help you. Some of them should give the subject much thought. The Great Falls Credit Exchange knows that DISCONTENTED KNOCKERS and AGITATORS almost uni- versally have poor credit ratings. Most people have good credit ratings. The Manager of the Credit Exchange with competent men and women will determine the winner. No school teacher, principal, superintendent or member of the School Board will have anything to say about who wins. Unless you can write much better than the average school kid, use a typewriter. The fact that you or your family might not have a good credit rating will not bar you from the contest. We plan to have the win- ning essay published in The Credit World, which is the official Publication of the Retail Credit Men ' s National Association — home office, 314 North, Sixth Street, St. Louis, Missouri. If you have read this announcement carefully, you need not ask us any questions. Get busy NOW.

Every man who buys lubricating oil must know that there is a heap of difference in the quality of motor oils on the market. Every motorist knows that he must buy the best oil obtainable to protect his motor so that it can deliver lasting service at a minimum of repair expense. Are you going to buy for goodness of quality or cheapness of price? The oil you put in your motor will tell on you. It ' s a secret that can ' t be kept as the record of results will soon be found out and the truth will be known — that quality is the cheapest in the long run. HECCOLENE (Pure Pennsylvania) MOTOR OIL is the best obtainable anywhere. H. EARL CLACK CO.

For one thing, a man with a loan mortage sleeps nights, for as long as he keeps up his monthly payments his loan cannot be called; whereas, when money is borrowed from an individual, there is always the chance that the lender may suddenly ask for his capital, and it will be necessary to go out seeking another lender, perhaps in times of stringency, and to pay the legal fees for a new mortage, and perhaps a premium or a higher rate of interest. Again, the home bought under a building-association mortgage will be a good value, for the Association ' s appraising committee probably includes a practical builder, and the amount of money loaned is governed by the solid character of the property. As the borrower cannot get enough on mortgage to make an extravagant purchase, he will not overload himself in taking on the obligation. Some of the largest Associations have never foreclosed a mortgage, indicating that the amount of the monthly payments each borrower can meet has been shrewdly gauged. Furthermore, in buy- ing through a building and loan association the purchaser of a home has the counsel of men thor- oughly experienced in every detail of real estate transfers ajad careful to see that there are no jokers or neglected points in the deal. The average loan committee in one of these associations may be trusted further in real estate knowledge than even an experienced realty attorney. The latter looks chiefly to points of law ; the loan men look beyond the law and into the human nature of the deal. For a building and loan association is essentially a human nature institution. The officers of the Great Falls Building and Loan Association at 201 Central Avenue are always pleased to answer inquiries concerning their institution which pays 6% on savings accounts and time certificates and loans its funds to assist thrifty people in owning their own homes. one hundred eighty-two MILESTONES W UNE, the month of roses, is 1 the peak of the year. It is 4 the month of weddings and the month of graduations— milestones in the lives of those dearest to you. Photography plays an important part in preserving such events, re- calling in after years the faces and scenes which interlace today, and which, alas, fall apart all too soon as the years pass. - HEYN KEE: MAKER OF QUAL LEY STUDIO ITY PORTRAITS 10 FIFTH STREET NORTH __i. one hundred eighty-three — WILCOXSON ' S CIGAR STORE 229 CENTRAL AVE.
