Dear Seniors: A great sculptor once said that every block of marble contains within it a perfect statue and that the vision of an artist can reveal that statue to the world. Each of you has set out to be an artist. The world is your mountain of marble. You may choose your own block upon which you will work. The most essential point, of course, is that you choose one block and work so faithfully upon it that in the end all superfluous marble will be chipped away and the vision of your life will be revealed to the world. It will mean nothing that you own the mountain until your ideal has been realized. The building of this year-book is a part of your splendid effort to reveal to the world “the statue in the block of marble.” It has been a great pleasure to work with you during your senior year, and I shall be greatly interested in the future progress of each individual member of the Senior Class of 1932.

T wenty-four Seniors From the shores of western lands, To the tops of mountains high; Scholars pushing onward, through To boundless plains of glory, Up the broken stairs of Time: Stumbling, climbing, toward the Towers. Then form your visions clear, for Your turrets tried and true; Each a value set upon, Nothing’s without gleam of gold. Those are low that hold the rest; Place for all, though all not high. Our yesterdays have built them. Blocks of learning for our soul; Solid founding for what comes, Empty spaces show us wrong. Now the frame we have before us: Plan the keystone for the arch; Wide the stones which bind it strong, Fill the yawning gaps with Courage; Face it all for men to see: That which you hide leaves crumbling. And now you have your structure, Pure in wisdom, clean in thought. Your guiding path you make yourself, To the light of happiness. And ever find a blue sky spread, And given hope to light your eye. Senior Class History It was a dark and cloudy day in September, when upon the Sea of Knowledge appeared a pirate ship carrying fifty frolicsome rovers. The experienced sailor O’Hara, a renowned Irish buccaneer, was captain, with Blubbersome Huss as first mate, and Long Buzzetti as second mate. Burly Harris guarded all bullion while Rusty Tanner kept the log. This being our first venture upon an uncoursed sea, many gallant rovers were sea sick. After cruising around for about a year in and out of port we surprised the brig Frosh. After a heated battle we finally overcame the Frosh, leaving our own ship to that doubtful, heaving sea. After a short pei’iod of cruising over the rolling waves we learned that Leaping John O’Neil and Bounding Baum were to be joint captains, while Pinky Carter and Shorty Clifford were first and second mates. Long Buzzetti was chosen keeper of the log, with One Step Eder juggling the treasure. Rusty Tanner was a good jabberer and proved her talent in debate. Jestors Baker, Janney, and Carter furnished entertainment during this eventful cruise. The most eventful feat of the whole trip was the winning of the interclass basket ball tournament. As days grew weary and our ship began to leak, we ventured towards the Isle of Rocks and there our faithful ship the “Frosh” ran aground. Many blundering buccaneers fell overboard into the Sea of Defeat, but most of us made our way to Construction Island. Here we fitted out a new brig which we christened “Soph.” After launching on a new cruise, the guiding hands of Ashy Winton and Curvey Comstock were to lead us over that dashing sea to further success. Jaspar Herman was first mate, Long Buzzetti, second mate. Curly Davis, keeper of the cruises, and Blackhair Barrows, keeper of the booty. Puffen Larsen and Shorty Clifford overtook the vessel known as the S. A. B. chorus and took a trip to the Isle of the State Music Meet that spring. So sailed that sturdy ship into the harbor of Vacation. After a short period of rerigging, our faithful vessel left port bound for the Junior Main. Curvey Comstock and Blackbeard Fisher acted as captains, Blondie Richards and Swede Torske as chief mates, with Maccie McDowell and Blackhair Barrows as assistants. Entertainment was furnished by the chief musician, One Step Eder. Later Huss, Corwin, Cook, Buzzetti, Barrows, and Wendland overtook the liner, “Junior Play”, and triumphantly raised their flag over its mast. The crew successfully weathered the storms “Prom and Banquet” and the “Tug-of-War”, and finally drifted into the Belt of Calms and there rested until in the fall a breeze filled their sails and sent them drifting toward “Senior Island.” With the two trusty weapons of Desire for Knowledge and Resolution to Hard Work, forty-one Seniors started on this last year of sailing, with the determination to gain possession of the supreme goal, Graduation Isle. They were captained by Peppy Bolinger and Blaekbeai-d Fisher, with Swede Torske, first mate, Lengthy Johnson, assistant marauder, Curly Davis, recorder of all events, and Burly Harris as guardian of the shekels. The “Ship of Seniors” successfully conquered the Girls’ Interclass Basket Ball Tournament. “The Goose Hangs High” was added to the list of victories. The 1932 year-book was published as a memorial to their achievements. In June, 1932, the port was reached and, donning their caps and gowns, they received the charts which were to guide them into the world as graduates of Hardin High School. T uenty-six Betrayed Trust A hunchback was coming down the avenue. He was a beggar, and a battered, thumping cane which marked his cautious step gave evidence of dim sight. His coat was greasy about the pockets and lapels—everything about him was repulsive—his short, thick neck, the shaggy hair hanging in clustered, matted strings below his hat. Apparently life had dealt hard with him—almost blind, and a hunchback. He paused near the entrance of one of the large stores. Taking off the dirty, greasy, black hat, he held it before him, mumbling words of his misfortune. Some of the hurrying crowd paused to throw in a few coins to gladden the man who had fared so poorly in his span of years. It was cold, dismal weather; a cutting east wind had swept round the corners, chilling even those dressed in warmth and luxury. The hunchback moved on; there were fewer people but he knew the wealthiest of New York’s business men came this way. Occasionally one paused for a word with him—one did this morning, as he handed him two silver coins—dollars. The beggar began, “Listen, guv-nor,—jest wanta let you know I ain’t got no way to make a livin’. I hate this way a gettin’ food but I ain’t got no clothes, no one wants me near ’em.” The wealthy man made a motion as to go on, but the clinging fingers of the beggar detained bim and he merely turned his collar up to ward off the biting wind and tarried. “Was in an explosion, guv’nor, almost lost my sight, jest as if it wasn t bad ’nuff to be a hunchback—and then that, no help, no nothin’ ever cornin’ in no more.” Another time the man who had made his fortune with his keen, intellectual mind reached into his pocket. This time a bill was pressed into the beggar s hand, and he hurried on, thankful that his lot had not been that of the beggar. The next day, as Mr. Well-to-do sat in his private office at his polished mahogany desk, he picked up the morning newspaper, noted idly the murders, holdups, love triangles; then down in the lower third column of the third sheet he read, Hunchback Cheats Public.” His attention was arrested by the words—he read on—yes it must have been the same man, the man on the avenue, who only yesterday had told him his story of ill-fated fortune. The hunchback was not a hunchback, the paper said, no, not even blind, he was merely a beggar. Found in a dying condition upon the street, he had been taken to the hospital, the hunch in his back was money, the money the trusting public had given him, thinking to gladden his life, while he had in the “hunch” hundreds of dollars, more indeed than some who had aided him. Mr. Well-to-do folded up the paper thoughtfully. Another trust broken by a dishonest man. Many would read that little news item in the third column on the third sheet and hereafter would doubt even the honest beggar—the one who really needed aid. Why had this “hunchback” lived this life, only to bring at the end a distrust for kindred beggars? Somehow, Mr. Well-to-do was sorry about that article, and wished the reporter had found some other subject to review. T uenty-eight . The Voyages of Crew “33” One September morn in 1929, a large crew sailors gathered on the good ship “Eighth Grade” on a quest of Learning in the Sea of Knowledge. Keith Linthacum, an able sailor, was elected captain, while Kenneth Ford, Cecil Ross, and Alice Knowles were chosen mates. The pirate ship, “Big Horn Subscription Contest”, was captured by the “Eighth Grade” crew, and in honor, of this we were entertained by the other ships of the seven seas on the merry ship “Mixer.” Several weeks later, after drinking strong ale and singing merry songs on the brightly lighted ship “Christmas Party”, we ran into the terror of the seven seas, the “Semester Exams.” After a ferocious fight of about three days, we finally compelled it to surrender with only a few of our crew killed or wounded. Smooth sailing and clear weather followed for manv days and after a terrible fight with “Final Exams”, we sailed into the harbor of “Summer Vacation” to rest and prepare for our next voyage in the better equipped ship, “Freshman.” The next fall when the mate called the roll it was discovered that our crew had increased greatly. Tom Koyama, a crafty and worthy seasan, was elected captain, Pauline Kleinhesselink was appointed mate, Claribel Johnson was selected to keep the log, and John Buzzetti was to count and keep the shekels. A bad ship “Six Weeks Tests” appeared but we fought it successfully. A notice was printed by the ship “Sophomore”, that the lighthouse “H” must be whitewashed. Our ablest and best trained sailors set out in lifeboats one dark night and whitewashed the “H” before the other ships knew anything about it. We were again entertained on the merry ship “Mixer”, for capturing again the ship called the “Big Horn Subscription.” In our battle with the pirate ship “Semester Exams”, many were killed and wounded, but the survivors carried the ship on. Some of our worthy seamen who had proved themselves in the art of music, set out in boats for the ship “Music Meet”, where the All Ships’ Band won third, and Gordon Brekke also won third on the cornet. The ship now drifted into the harbor of “Summer Vacation” without any serious mishaps, to rest and prepare for the next voyage in the staunch vessel “Sophomore.” On the next voyage in the ship “Sophomore”, John Buzzetti, an experienced seaman, was elected to guide the course, while Gordon Brekke, Cecil Wham, and Philip Kerrick were elected to serve as mates. Cecil Ross, Tom Koyama, Ralph Ferguson, and John Buzzetti were chosen along with sailors from other ships by Captain Salyer of the ship “Basket Ball” to serve him and fight pirates of the other seas. They won most of their battles. Again some of our musical sailors set out for the ship “Music Meet” and came back with two third places, won by Gordon Brekke on the cornet, and George Mar-quisee on the violin. After finding all the knowledge they could, the ship “Sophomore” again sailed into the harbor of “Summer Vacation” and there the sailors rested for their next trip. When the roll was called next September, the crew had decreased somewhat but the survivors were eager to carry on; and the small but commanding seaman, Joe Olenik, was elected captain, with Tom Koyama, Philip Kerrick, and Keith Linthacum, mates. The crew of “33’, as Juniors, was again entertained for capturing the pirate ship “Big Horn Subscription Contest”, and a great time was had by all on board the ship “Mixer.” This year the crew captured successfully the ships “Prom” and “Banquet”, and fought a big battle with the ship “Senior”, called the great “Tug of War.” —John Buzzetti.

Lack of Knowledge. After being examined by Dr. Gerber, we were told to enter the Freshman Ward with Dr. Salyer and Nurse Shipley supervising us. They told us that it would take four years to cure us, and then the cure would be only partial because this disease is practically incurable. We had only been in the hospital a few weeks when Dr. Gerber announced the “All High Mixer.” They were giving this party for us because we had all been so good. After the party, we felt that the hospital was one of the happiest places in the world. The next week we were given a Six Weeks Examination to determine whether we were becoming better or worse after taking treatments. Most of us were getting better but a few seemed to have developed the disease, “Failure.” They were told to take lots of the medicine, “Study Harder.” This medicine was terribly bitter, but most of them succeeded in taking some of it. About this time old Santa visited us and left an apple, a sack of candy, and a present for each person. He also left a note with Dr. Gerber, saying that we could go home for a two weeks’ Christmas vacation. On our return we were given a Semester Examination to see how we were feeling and to see if the medicine had helped us any. Most of us were told that we were getting along as well as could be expected. To celebrate this, we were given a “Freshman Party” which we all enjoyed immensely. Then came the Final Examination. If we succeeded in passing it successfully we could go home for a three months’ vacation and could enter the Sophomore Ward next year. Some of us became so frightened while taking this examination that we almost developed heart failure, and many other common ailments, but in the end we all passed the examination and were given a card entitling us to enter the Sophomore Ward next year. After three months of glorious vacation, we had to come back to the hospital again for more treatments. This year it was different because we knew all the rules and regulations of the hospital. We soon found out that there were several new nurses but most of the same old doctors were there. We entered the Sophomore Ward with Dr. Salyer and Nurse Kurtz supervising us. We were very glad to have Dr. Salyer in charge of us again and we soon learned that Miss Kurtz was a very good nurse indeed. Several new patients from other hospitals entered the Sophomore Ward with us. We were royally entertained at the “Mixer , forgetting that tomorrow would bring the “Six Weeks Examination” and most of us would have to take some of the medicine “Study Harder.” Before we knew it Christmas had rolled around again. A big Christmas party was held in the Hospital and Santa in person came to see us and announced to us that we would get a two weeks’ vacation. He also gave each patient a present. Dr. Gerber made a little speech and told us to take lots of “Study Harder” home with us ove - vacation and take large doses. The first week we were back in our wards we had to take the Semester Examination. Most of us succeeded in passing this examination with flying colors. Soon afterwards we celebrated with a Sophomore picnic. We had a picnic instead of a party because our supervisors thought we needed lots of fresh air and exercise. We returned to the hospital tired but happy. Then came the Final Examination; this was really the climax of the year. Our hearts thumped madly while we waited for our cards. We almost screamed with delight when we read on our cards, “You are entitled to enter the Junior Ward next year.” We went home happy but we knew we would be glad to come back for we had found the hospital a far nicer place than we had thought before. —Vada Perry.

After becoming accustomed to our new mode of travel, we elected the following plane officers to superintend our flight: Judith Wagner, president; Edmund Kel- ley, vice president; Robert Kopriva, secretary; Nina Ruth Egneu, treasurer. Mr. Baldwin and Miss O’Hara were the chief pilots. After a special landing to enjoy our first mixer, we flew steadfastly on, encountering bumpy air-waves and bad weather at intervals of six weeks, which we came to know and expect as six weeks exams. At the culmination of our flight we celebrated at a typical airmen’s picnic, passed our final examination that made us full-fledged aviators, and disbanded for the summer months. We met again the following fall for another nine months’ trip, this time to be taken in a shiny new green plane, christened “The Freshman.” Our number had increased from last year and we totalled sixty-nine, which was the largest group making the trip to Higher Education. We made a successful flight and after electing Robert Kopriva, president; Kathleen Jenson, vice president; Mildred Rowland, secretary; James Clawson, treasurer; Mr. Baldwin and Miss Leikvold, pilots; we gave her the gun and commenced our long trip. This year we were scheduled to make more stops, the first one being to whitewash the “H”, an old custom in aviation. A few days later we descended to attend our second Mixer. An extended stay on ground was made while the Interclass Tournament was in progress. We failed to bring home the laurels to decorate the propeller of our plane but were not discouraged. One page of our record books reads: “Bad weather experienced every six weeks. No forced landings. Refueled at Thanksgiving and again at Christmas. Had wings patched and a new coat of paint.” With “The Freshman” repaired and in good order, we passed through terrific winds known as Semester Exams unscathed, it being unnecessary to use our parachutes which were ready and packed in ease we might have to abandon the plane. One pleasant stop was made at the Freshman party and again at a picnic. We detoured over the Music Festival and landed several contestants. The Freshmen survived the stormiest passage of all, the final exams, but when we clambered out of the plane and divested ourselves of our flying costumes, we realized that we must again have a new plane the following year, “The Sophomore.” Thirty-eight Freshman Class Robert Kopriva____________________________________President Kathleen Jenson______________________________Vice President Mildred Rowland___________________________________Secretary James Clawson--------------------------------------Treasurer Colors: Purple and gold.

Stuart Thirty-nine Forty Eighth Grade History On the eighth of September in 1931, a merry group of thirty-one eighth graders assembled at the seaport, Hardin High School, to embark upon the strange ocean of Learning. We were grieved to leave the fair land of Vacation, but necessity knows no law. We tremblingly entered the stout ship “Eighth Grade”, where we found two experienced sailors, O’Hara and Thompson, who told us we must choose our own officers, but they would advise us in moments of distress. We flocked together and chose La Verne Clement as our captain, William Torske to help her, Martha Petros to keep our loose change, and Marybeth Shreve to keep the log. We had become used to our ship, and were sailing along gayly, when we beheld a black cloud on the horizon. Upon asking the two old salts what it meant, we were told that it was a slight storm which occurred in this ocean every six weeks. We bravely weathered the storm and emerged to find a gayly lighted island before us. We were told this was Mixer Island and we were to spend a night there. We made that night merry until we saw the anchor being drawn up, then we all jumped on board and sailed away. After most of us saved ourselves from being washed off the deck when the terrible hurricanes. Semester and Final Exams, descended upon us, we found ourselves anchored to a shore called Summer Vacation. Our good ship left us there but promised to return in the fall with the new name of “Freshman.” Eighth Grade LaVerne Clement William Torske— Martha Petros—.

Forty-six Much time and labor has been put forth by the annual staff and its two supervisors, Miss Waisner, literary supervisor, and Mr. Baldwin, business and art advisor, in the editing of this year’s annual. Every member of the staff has given his best in an endeavor to publish a better annual than ever before put out by Hardin High School. Last year the Big Horn Annual was awarded a first class honor rating in the Eleventh National Yearbook Critical Service of the National Scholastic Press Association. Cooperation, the primary essential in an undertaking of this kind, has been appreciated by the staff which extends sincere thanks to all those who have in any way aided in the compiling of the material which constitutes the Big Horn Annual of 1931-1932. The annual staff is composed of the following members: _______________________Editor ____________Assistant Editor _____________Associate Editor ____________Business Manager Assistant Business Manager __________________Art Editor ________Assistant Art Ed'tor __________Boys’ Sport Writer _________Girls’ Sport Writer ____________________Secretary ____________Faculty Advisor ____________Faculty Advisor Bernice Wendland___ Verna Smith________ LaVerna Tanner_____ James Torske_______ Lloyd Huss--------- Lois Barrows_______ Eileen Johnson____ John Mielke-------- Ella Mae Davis_____ LaVaune Larsen____ Dorothy K.

Eight years ago the Students’ Association purchased the printing press and turned out the first “high school printed’’ edition of the Big Horn. From that time the paper has been issued regularly. Miscellaneous work for the other departments of the school and some job printing is also done in the shop. Much credit is to be given to Miss Buford, faculty sponsor, for the splendid supervision and advice she has given the staff.

Debate, one of the outstanding activities of the school, was entered into with a great deal of enthusiasm by the members of the teams, under the experienced guidance of Principal Raymond A. Gerber. Four interscholastic debates were held during the year, two with Billings High School and two with Sheridan High School. Each squad member had an opportunity to appear in interscholastic contests or in contests held before local civic organizations. The question debated was, “Resolved: That the several states of the United States should pass compulsory unemployment insurance laws.” The following people took part in debate: Pauline Beall, Kathryn Corwin, Robert Kopriva, Avys Mielke, Howard Polleys, Helen Rennick, Margaret Swindle, and Charles Sweeney.

All students taking commercial work are members of this club, and the Commercial Club since 1923 has been sponsoring the Student Store. The store is managed by a group of students elected by the entire commercial department; and under the direction of Miss O’Hara, they purchase necessary school equipment to be sold for the convenience and accommodation of the high school pupils. Any profits are turned over to the Students’ Association. A branch store at the grade school was established in 1924, and it, too, has become known for its success under the management of the grade school pupils. Hardin School Savings System M. A. Thompson________________________________Director Mary Jane Buzzetti__________________________Bookkeeper Lois Barrows________________________________Bookkeeper George Marquisee________________________________Teller Thelma Kalberg__________________________________Teller The Hardin School Savings System was organized in February, 1929. Since its organization the system has had a steady growth and at the present time there is over $4,000 on deposit, representing over 500 students. The system is centralized at the high school, where accounts for the Hardin Schools, Crow Agency schools, and rural schools are kept. It is directed by Mr. M. A. Thompson. There are four assistants, Mary Jane Euzzetti and Lois Barrows, bookkeepers; George Marquisee and Thelma Kalberg, tellers. Four per cent interest, compounded semi-annually, is paid on all accounts. The depository of the school savings account is the First National Bank of Hardin. All deposits are guaranteed by registered county warrants and bonds. Fifty-one T raditions TUG-OF-WAR One of the Hardin High School traditions which is held every spring is the Tug-of-War. The 1930-1931 Tug-of-War was the snappiest one ever staged in Hardin. Contrary to custom, no trenches or footholds were dug. The outcome depended entirely on the grasping power of the two teams for the weight was equalized beforehand. Within five minutes after the gun was fired, the Junior class was proclaimed victorious. JUNIOR PROM AND BANQUET The Junior banquet and prom were given on May eighteenth and nineteenth, carrying out the Washington and colonial garden idea. The colonial setting was portrayed by covering the walls with silhouettes representing Washington’s life, while cherry trees in blossom screened off one end and partially hid the low stone wall inclosing the garden. The lowered ceiling was decorated with the first flag of the United States of America made from thirteen red and white stripes. The thirteen stars were illuminated by small lights. The table decorations consisted of lighted candles and colonial motifs, and the program and menu consistently maintained the colonial mode. .' Dramatics RUTH BOLINGER Much interest has been displayed in the dramatics of Hardin High School this year. The students and townspeople have appreciatively supported each presentation at the Harriet Theatre. Excellent talent has been brought forth from among the students, and some effective plays have been pi'oduced under the capable direction of Miss Ruth Bolinger.

They prove their good traits by quitting college and securing jobs when their father loses his position. Character portrayals are displayed by Eunice and Bernard Ingles. The love element is provided by the engagement of Dagmar Carroll and Hugh Ingles. The play culminates in a proposed wedding.

Roarin’ Riley and the Widow Winters furnish the whole-hearted humor of the play. Music MR. BOYD F. BALDWIN MR. PAUL ENEVOLDSEN Vocal Instrumental Making a musical nation and community is one of the modern educational aims, and the music department of the schools in Hardin is a valuable asset to the school in general as well as to each individual participating in it. Educators now recognize music as good training in the development of mental alertness and acuteness. Band, orchestra, and soloists, both instrumental and vocal, are now accepted as an essential part of every progressive school program. Under the direction of Mr. Paul Enevoldsen, the instrumental department was represented at many functions during the preceding year. The band performed at the Fort Custer Celebration, Big Horn Dam Mass Meeting, State Music Meet at Billings, the United States Army Band Concert at Billings, various dramatic functions of both the grade and high school, as well as a number of popular concerts on the main streets of Hardin. The orchestra played at every play and operetta given by the schools; and the string ensemble has represented the music department at various entertainments in Hardin and the surrounding vicinity. The vocal department of the school has been well developed through the efforts oL Mr. Baldwin, instructor of both the girls’ and the boys’ glee clubs. The glee clubs have long been a curricular feature of the Hardin schools. In the grade schools of District 17-H, two choruses are trained and put in shape for the annual spring music meet. The Hardin and Crow schools each present one operetta a year. Vocal training is organized around the glee clubs which have a total of fifty-three students. From these organizations are developed the girls’ trio, boys’ quartet, girls’ sextet, mixed chorus, mixed sextet, and mixed quartets. The main features of each year are the annual operetta and the state music meet recital. Last year Hardin High School won several honors at the State Music Meet: Trombone—Charles Buzzetti, second place. Violin—George Marquisee, third place. Cornet—Gordon Brekke, third place. Band—First place in Class B Bands. Boys’ Glee Club—First place. Fifty-seven Band The band has always been one of the leading activities of Hardin High School and has attained great prominence this year by the many excellent concerts presented before various local clubs and organizations. There is an enrollment of thirty-nine members. Practices, conducted by Mr. Enevoldsen, are held every Wednesday and Thursday evening at 7 o’clock. Attendance is checked and the organization is maintained in the same manner as a curricular subject of the high school, with the exception that grades are issued at the end of each semester, instead of each six weeks’ period.

It affords valuable experience and training in rhythm and unison playing to the sixteen students that are enrolled. Regular practice is every Thursday afternoon from four to six o’clock. Selections varying from the light operatic works to those of the heavier nature are played. Many public appearances are made by the orchestra during the school year and short concerts are held as a prelude to all high school plays.

It forms an integral part of the operetta and is called upon a good many times during the year for selections. To be a member it is necessary to pass an ability examination in reading music at sight, harmonization, and volume. The organization meets twice a week, and examinations and grades are given. ’The following officers were elected for this school year: Bernice Wendland, president; Lois Barrows, vice president; Louise Clifford, secretary-treasurer; Marjorie Krone, Student Council representative; Dorothea Eder, accompanist.

Sixty Boys’ Glee Club Mr. Baldwin also sponsors a glee club for the boys of Hardin High School, which is organized on the same principles as those of the girls’ glee club. The boys are divided into three voice sections, first tenor, second tenor, and bass; and a wide variety of songs is selected for them to work on. Much valuable singing experience is acquired through the club, and the boys who plan to attend college will have a basic foundation for further musical work. One credit toward graduation is given for four years in glee club work. The officers are; president, Lewis Wilcox; vice president, Ralph Ferguson; secretary, John Buzzetti; Student Council representative, Elarth Trussed; accompanists, Johanna Kray and Robert Kopriva. MEMBERS Gordon Brekke, Clyde Hawks, Robert Kopriva, Torry Johnson, Gilbert Thompson, Alfred Bowman, Laverne Bullis, John Buzzetti, Kenneth Ford, Roderick Spencer, James Torske. Russell Swaby, Sterling Torske, Cecil Ross, Ralph Ferguson, Lloyd Huss, Elarth Trussed, Lewis Wilcox, and Leslie Holmes. Sixty-onc “The Belle of Barcelona” The most important feature in the musical program of Hardin High School is the annual operetta put on through the combined efforts of the two glee clubs This year the operetta chosen by Mr. Baldwin was “The Belle of Barcelona” a musical comedy of three acts by C. Ross Chaney. It was given at the high school auditorium on the evenings of March 4th and 5th, 1932. The cast included fifty people, while the leading characters were chosen from all four high school classes. There were four seniors, six juniors, two sophomores, and three freshmen. I he costuming was varied and unique; one setting used all Spanish costumes and the other required formal United States military and diplomatic uniforms. It was a very colorful presentation.

SALYER Coach Due to the great interest and untiring effort of Mr. Salyer, athletics has come to be the major activity of Hardin High School. Besides instructing the physical education classes, he has coached the boys’ and girls’ basket ball teams through a successful season. Volley ball, baseball, and track have been organized under his leadership. Although Coach Salyer has been at Hardin for only two years, he has become prominent because of his excellent coaching ability. Basket Ball The boys’ basket ball team made a very creditable showing this year and is to be commended for the splendid team work and sportsmanship exhibited at all times. The members of the first team were Herbert Dunham, Lloyd Huss, Ralph Ferguson, Lewis Wilcox, all who have played their last year of basket ball, and John Buzzetti, Cecil Ross, Tom Koyama, and Alvin Frost. The lineup of the second team, which played two games with the team at Crow Agency, was Myron Duriehe, Jack Helmann, Frank Dornberger, Robert Thomas, Francis Dunham, and Kenneth Ford. At the district tournament at Laurel, Hard'n placed fourth, being defeated by Laurel and Red Lodge, but winning games with Reed Point, Belfrey, and Project. Practices were held every day of the week, under the capable coaching of Mr. Salyer, and numerous practice skirmishes were held with the Hardin Independent team. The honorary captain elected by the team at the close of the season was Herbert Dunham. Coach Salyer also organized a girls’ team, which was active throughout the season. Material for the first team lineup was selected from the group of girls that turned out for daily practice. The team accompanied the boys’ team on three outside trips, playing a total of six games during the season. Marjorie Krone was selected honorary captain of the girls’ basket ball team for the 1931-1932 season. Dunham Buzzetti Ross Wilcox Boys’ Basket Ball Where there were overhead shots, Punch” Dunham was there to make them. Acting as center or guard, he was cool, clever, and an encouragement to the team. He was able to make baskets from any angle on the floor. One of the high tally whackers of the old Bulldog team was John Buzzetti, a fascinating forward. He was fast on his feet and a quick thinker on the floor. He will be with the Bulldogs one more year. Pivot” Ross, alternately playing guard and forward, was particularly known for his faithfulness to the team and his ability to adjust himself to changing situations anywhere on the floor. He was noted for his ability to work the ball through. Although Cox” was little, he was one of the fastest men on the team. An excellent dribbler, he kept the opposing teams hard pressed trying to stop him. He played guard. A scintilating forward and a long shot tosser of the old gang, Tom played heady ball under cover of the opposing team. He played a steady, consistent game. Clean sportsmanship was his byword. Frosty” was young but he played good ball. Always in his place as center, he did some efficient hooping. We are expecting big things from him next year. Fergie”, playing forward and center, was a sure hit with his one hand shots from under the basket. He always used his height to good advantage. Ralph will graduate this June. “Sissy” Huss pivoted like a trick dancer. His cleverness as a guard was hard to beat The team will miss him next year. Koyama Frost Ferguson Huss Sixty-five Yell Kings Three important figures seen in strong action at every basket ball game during 1931-1932 were the three cheer leaders, Evelyn Helmann, Howard Polleys, and Hazen Ransier. Early in the fall this peppy trio was chosen by ballot to direct the student body in the school yells. Shortly before the end of the basket ball season Hazen Ransier moved away from Hardin leaving a vacancy in the yell trio. “Buzzee” Pattison was elected to the position which he filled very capably. These leaders have been the generators of much genuine pep and enthusiastic school spirit in Hardin High School this year. BOYS’ BASKET BAI.I, SCHEDULE 1931-32 Dec. 4—Hysham at Hardin.

Girls’ Basket Ball The girls’ basket ball team of Hardin High School had a very favorable record for 1931-1932. At the beginning of the basket ball season about fifteen girls turned out, namely: Mary Jane Buzzetti, Emma Beck, Madderine Ebeling, Helen Conver, Ella Mae Davis, Marjorie Krone, Maxine Kifer, and Marie Jensen. There were no regular class periods; practices were held after school three times a week. The girls in the starting line-up, selected according to the playing ability they exhibited in the inter-class tournament, were Madderine Ebeling, Marie Jensen and Bernice Wendland, tall, well-trained forwards; Marjorie Krone and Helen Conver, two guards who well deserved recognition as being two of the best defensive players on the squad; Isabelle Newell, as the tall and active side center who greatly retarded the opponents’ score-making centers; and Ella Mae Davis, playing center, was one of the main scorers of the team. Many of the other girls showed unusual ability at pivoting, passing, shooting, and blocking. During the season the team played six games with other schools. At each game a different girl acted as captain, thus enabling each girl to have an opportunity to act as captain. The honorary captain selected at the end of the season was Marjorie Krone.

Sixty-seven Track Hai'din was invited to attend the second annual track meet sponsored by the Billings Polytechnic School last year. As Hardin had no regular track team, Coach Salyer, after a few tryouts, selected Frank Domberger, Herbert Dunham, Joseph Lammers, Howai'd Polleys, and Henry Kray to represent Hardin. This year with lots of hard work in this field, they expect to get their share of track honors. Kitten Ball League In the spring of 1931, after the close of the basket ball season, a Kitten Ball League was organized. Kitten ball is a modulated form of baseball, with practically the same principles and rules, with the exception that the ball must be pitched underhand and that no gloves are used. Five teams were selected from the entire high school, and one team composed of faculty members and five-year men. The games were played after school and afforded much interest and excitement. Inter-Class Basket Ball Tournament Early in the fall of 1931, prior to the basket ball season, the inter-class basket ball tournament for both boys and girls was held to enable Coach Salyer to line up the prospective material for the season teams. The coach selected two outstanding players, a boy and a girl, and they in turn selected the members of the teams that were to represent the various classes in the tournament. Including the substitutes for the class teams, over one hundred students participated. In order to equalize the strength of the sides, it was decided that all contestants should “weigh in” and that the heavier teams should give the lighter teams a point for every pound in excess of the lighter. The games were “pyramided” so that winning teams were matched together, and the losers played losers. The girls’ games were played in the afternoon and the boys’ at night. The junior boys carried off the school championship by defeating successively the freshmen, sophomores, and seniors. The members of the team were Herbert Dunham, John Buzzetti, Cecil Ross, Kenneth Ford, Tom Koyama, and Elarth Trussed. The girls’ winning team was that of the seniors, made up of Bernice Wendland, Helen Rennick, Ella Mae Davis, Mary Jane Buzzetti, Marjorie Krone, Marie Jensen, and Helen Franklin. Other participants in the tournament were: Eighth grade boys—Sam Rides a Horse, Arthur Durtsche, Charles Livengood, Earl Conver, Richard Gregory, William Torske, John Smith. Eighth grade girls—Faye Winn, Blanche Jensen, Martha Petros, LaVerne Clement, Betty Kopriva, Kathryn Michael, Esther Heagle. Freshman boys—George Curley, Jack Deer Nose, David Stewart, Francis Dunham, Myron Durtsche, Stuart Wolcott, Edward Whiteman, Gilbert Thompson. Freshman girls—Maxine Prine, Irene Helmann, Mabel Krone, Kathleen Jensen, Rexine Bryan, Marjorie Sweeney, Mildred Rowland. Sophomore boys—Jack Helmann, Alvin Frost, Robert Thomas, Meron Landon, Ray Collier, Frank Nelson, Charles Buzzetti. Sophomore girls—Berniece Gustafason, Maxine Kifer, Gene Rinehart, Helen Conver, Shirley Astrope, Julia Graf, Emma Beck. Junior girls—Maddarine Ebeling, Marguerite McLean, Isabelle Newell, Agnes Jensen, Evelyn Helmann, Valdema Plympton. Senior boys—Melvin Harris, Lloyd Huss, Lewis Wilcox, John Mielke, Frank Dornberger, Joe Lammers, James Torske. Sixty-nine Girls’ Physical Education Approximately seventy girls were enrolled in the regular Tuesday and Thursday physical education classes this year. Games of baseball, volley ball, fist ball, and basket ball were learned and played outside whenever the weather made it possible. A second division of the work done in the gymnasium included tumbling, individual stunts, couple stunts, group stunts, drills, and calisthenics. This department is under the skillful direction of Mr. Salyer, who has worked out a well rounded course for the girls of Hardin High School. Boys’ Physical Education Physical education is now a permanent part of the school program. It gives pupils who are not inclined to take up music and dramatics a way to make honorary credits with which to graduate. There are now seventy-five boys enrolled. In the spring and fall Coach Salyer has the boys outside, going through their drills and playing games. In the winter they use the gymnasium which is equipped with mats and apparatus to do gymnastics. Gymnasium drills are conducted in regular classes under Coach Salyer with semester exams and six weeks’ grades. In this way the students that enroll get at least two hours of hard, healthful, muscle-building exercises to build up their bodies and keep them physically fit. Seventy Sophomores Freshmen Eighth Grade JUNIOR ASSEMBLY PROGRAM Macbeth’s gloomy outlook on life fired the imagination of the junior English classes in their study of that classic. As a result the junior class presented three scenes from Macbeth on January 15th, to the assembly. These were, Macbeth and Ladv Macbeth contemplating the murder of Duncan, Macbeth’s visit to the three witches, and the famous sleep walking scene. A violin duet by George Marquisee and Elarth Trussell contributed to the program. SOPHOMORE ASSEMBLY PROGRAM The sophomore English assembly program, given March 11, opened with a trombone solo by Charles Buzzetti. This was followed by a semi-humorous one-act play, called “The Advice Doctor”, played by Frank Nelson, Margaret Swindle, Donald Neuhauser, Loretta Dornberger, Maxine Kifer, and Howard Polleys. A harmonica duet by Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Cook closed the program. FRESHMAN CLASS PROGRAM The English I classes presented an assembly program April 8, as supplementary work to the study of “Julius Caesar.” “The Boy Will”, a one-act drama, pictured William Shakespeare as a typical boy, not only of yesterday, but of today. Edmund Kelley opened the program with a clarinet solo. The closing number was a short stunt, “Ah”, given by Mildred Rowland, Jack Gregory, and Harold Irish. EIGHTH GRADE ENGLISH PROGRAM As the date for the eighth grade English assembly program was February 12th, sketches from Lincoln’s life were presented. The opening number was a piano solo by Betty Kopriva. The Lineoln-Douglas debate at Freeport, Illinois, was re-enacted by two members of the class who represented these two orators. In conclusion, a short play entitled, Lu Li Learns About Lincoln”, showed how some American friends entertained their little Chinese friend by telling incidents of Lincoln’s life. Sti'fnt) -tuo Home Economics Department One of the most interesting departments of Hardin High School is the homemaking department. First and second year courses are offered to the girls to prepare them to be more helpful to themselves and to the people with whom they come in contact in their living. Cooking, sewing, home-making, child care, and social etiquette are studied and applied during the two years in a very practical way. The entire supply of bread for the grade school cafeteria was furnished this year by the high school home economics department as a project. In addition, several luncheons, dinners, and banquets were planned, cooked, and served by the home economics girls. Miss Margaret Leikvold is to be commended for her capable direction and helpful guidance of the girls of her department. Seventy-three Manual Training Hardin High School offers to its boys a two-year course in prevocational and industrial arts. This course, under the direction of Mr. Salyer, not only gives the boy who finds the regular routine of school work irksome a motivating field, but the boy who is sincerely interested in developing his ability as a craftsman is given his opportunity. The industrial arts work makes the academic subjects come to life; it permits the pupil to experience actual life situations in the school shop and gives the student an insight into a vocation which he perhaps might follow. There are fifteen boys enrolled in the advanced class, while thirty have availed themselves of the opportunity as beginners. Science Department Big Horn County development has in part depended upon the engineering skill of man. The agriculture and industry of the future will depend more than ever upon scientific knowledge. Hardin High School offers the rudiments of scientific training. Hardly any walk of life today is without its scientific applications. It is to meet this need that the public is providing equipment and teachers for scientific instruction. Emphasis is therefore placed upon the everyday problems arising in the life of the average individual—students learn easily through construction. Pictured below are some of the articles made in science classes. These exhibits are working models and most of them perform with a fair degree of efficiency. My First Shave April fifth is one date that I shall remember for two reasons. One is that it is my grandmother’s birthday; the other and biggest reason is that on the day of April fifth, in the year of our Lord, 1931, I blossomed forth a man. Often I had sat on the edge of the bath tub at home and enviously watched my father shave himself. Many times as I sat in the barber’s chair getting a hair cut, I dreamed of the day when I could manfully stride into a barber shop and say, “shave, please.” One day when I was industriously searching my face for something to shave, I discovered a few light pieces of fuzz on my upper lip. I then proceeded to buy a tube of shaving cream and a shaving brush. Sunday morning I arose and, with my razor (one that had belonged to my grandfather’s uncle), I tiptoed to the bathroom. After spending several minutes lathering my face, I proceeded to scrape the rust off the razor and then, with long, powerful strokes, I scraped all the lather off my face. I then slipped into my shirt and adjusted my tie, and stepped forth into the hallway—a man! —Bob Thomas. MONTANA SPRINGTIME When the ice comes down the rivers And the snow begins to melt; When the streams are clear as crystal And the mountain air is felt; With her snow-capped mountains shining Fair Montana greets the spring, But the meadow larks and robins Are not all that she shall bring. And while over all the hillsides Where the meadow larks give cry. And the tulips pop their heads up To see fading snow-banks die; See the bitter-root—first comer, With its pinkish color fair, Rival all the flowers of summer. And with fragrance fill the air. —Kenneth Ingram. Seventy-six Wild Talon, the Unconquerable People say that on cold, stormy nights, when the wind is hurling a blizzard over the great frozen Northland, a great black dog stalks over the trackless wastes, pausing on the top of some low knoll to send his cry of challenge down the wind. Thus, the ghost of Wild Talon, one of the greatest dogs in the history of the Northland, lives on in that wierd country on the top of the world. Those people also say that in his lonely wanderings across the Northland at night, the spirit of Wild Talon is hunting the spirit of the man who conquered him. Twenty—thirty—maybe thirty-five years ago, when gold was free for the taking, and dogs were necessary to men, Wild Talon was the wildest, untamed dog in the North. Men feared him because he was unconquerable; but men wanted him because he was the greatest dog—the mightiest dog—and the owner and tamer of him would be a mighty man. Wild Talon passed from man to man, growing wilder with every new master. Men tried to break him with a loaded whip, a black-snake lash, chains—but all failed. Finally they had given up all hope of ever taming the wild beast and talked of turning him loose to go back to the wolf packs that he seemed to have come from. Then, that spring, a man, broken and old in spirit but young in years, came out of the East. Life had been cruel to Mann. Life had tried to break him with a loaded whip, a black-snake lash, chains—and life had won. So Mann left the scenes of his childhood—scenes of his successes and failures and sought the North, where he could forget, and die forgotten. As he sped over the frozen trails he found that he could not forget; to be alone with his thoughts brought that dreary past more vividly before him. The first story he heard was that of Wild Talon, the Unconquerable, who could not be tamed. A dog without a master, and he resolved to become that dog’s master. Days lengthened into weeks—weeks into months; summer days grew chilly— autumn winds began to bear tidings of winter snows; and Wild Talon was still unconquered. Mann was not using the loaded whip or the black-snake lash, but kindness instead, and Wild Talon seemed to be weakening. At last Mann succeeded in putting Wild Talon into the traces as leader of the team, and he was hailed as Wild Talon’s conqueror. Big money was offered for the dog, but Mann would not sell because Wild Talon had not completely surrendered, and until he passed the supreme test—that of fighting for himself or his master, Mann would still try, try, again. Travel was becoming almost impossible, but still Mann made the long, lonely trip over the frozen trail to the post wherp men eagerly awaited news from the outside world; waiting for official order to abandon the post for the winter. At last, after many weary, dreary, monotonous days, there was an official letter in the mail for the far away post, and Mann started on the last trip until spring came blithely over the Northland. Second day out a wind began its shrieking vigil over the North, and by noon the next day the wind brought snow! Fear gripped the heart of the people at the fort, and Mann. Would Talon fight for himself or his master? It would be a stroke of the hand of Fate if Wild Talon led the team and Mann to safety. Moments seemed hours, and hours were ages in the white, whirling blackness of the blizzard. Mann alternately rode and walked, to keep from sinking into that painless, frozen death. He lost all sense of time, direction, and distance, and lifted his last hope in a prayer for Wild Talon. Once, when the dogs stopped, Man heard Wild Talon’s fierce bark, urging the team on. But Mann could not believe it was Wild Talon, the Unconquerable. Time passed—and the dogs struggled on, slower, and slower. What was that speck? A light? The fort beacon? Ah! It was the lights of the fort! The love for Mann had become stronger than the primeval fear and hatred of the human race in the heart of Wild Talon, the fearless, the untamed, the unconquered! And now, after many years have passed, the spirit of Wild Talon comes back to seek the spirit of Mann. He wanders over the lonely wastes and sends his challenge across the desolate hills, showing that he is st’ll Wild Talon, the Unconquerable. —Kathryn Corwin.

Witnesses: Ruth Bolinger and Kenneth Fisher. Astro-Analysis The members of the senior class, being particularly far-seeing, thought it would be interesting to know a little of their characters and what the future held for them. Two members of the class were delegated to interview Frederick the Great, the famous mystic, who gave them the following analysis. Verna Smith as an Aquarian native has strong likes and dislikes and occasionally is very radical in ideas and beliefs. She is well adapted to a literary, artistic, and scientific career because of her strong attraction to the higher lines of study. Gifted with a wealth of illustration, she will make an excellent teacher. Eileen Johnson is characterized by a quick wit and a keen observation. She has a great many acquaintances although she adapts herself to but few as close friends. Success may be gained as a manufacturer of cosmetics. Frank Dornberger is born under the sign of Virgo. He is modest, thoughtful, contemplative, and industrious. In love he is shy, bashful or undemonstrative, and seemingly cold. Many chemists interested in the occult are found in this sign. Marjorie Krone is forgiving, tolerant, and possesses an extreme love of justice and freedom. Sports, hunting and fishing, dangerous and daring stunts, give the Arian the best recreation. Designers of new styles are numerous in this sign. LaVerna Tanner is inclined to exaggerate and be quick, impulsive or informal. She loves liberty and freedom but dislikes a master. Her well-balanced mind will aid her in her career as a novelist. Joe Lammers as a Leo individual is genuinely kind and generous and is silent and sincere in his beliefs. He is an inherent optimist, knowing that “behind the clouds the sun still shines.” He will be a successful astrologer. Lois Barrows, whose temperament is usually of the sort that is quick, restless, fierv, and energetic, is fond of going from place to place. She has remarkable skill in the use of her hands, a firm, delicate touch, and splendid poise. She would be successful in any business connected with liquids and oils, and would, therefore, make a good druggist. Gwendolyn Helmann is active, easily contented, learns readily, and does not show her age. Occasionally she has outbursts of temper. She is a good provider and does remarkably well in all matters connected with food-stuffs. She would make a natural home economics teacher. Ralph Ferguson has grit and go-ahead-itive-ness that will enable him to reach high attainments. When he gives allegiance, he is steadfast, loyal, and given to deeo attachment. His personal presence is healing and strengthening. He will do well as a mechanic. Genevieve Richards. Opposition to her plans is met with strong resentment. She is witty, good-humored, and appreciates a good time. She will be a writer of children’s verses. Seventy-nine Arvilla Faw has a quiet, thoughful nature and is generally very practical. The typical Capricorn is a born worker who loves to be industrious. Sometimes her love or marriage comes late. She will become an excellent librarian. Horace Bunston. The typical type of this sign is not seemingly robust or muscular in a large degree. In the home circle he is affectionate, quiet, and helpfully attentive. He is destined to become a distinguished and well known lawyer. Frances Turner will have many love affairs which will begin early in life. It is not unusual for Taurians to inherit land, property, bonds, and jewels, or to benefit through relatives in foreign countries. Since she knows how to laugh and be merry, she will make an excellent nurse. Bernice Wendland has an active mind and is a good person to rely upon in an emergency because she can instantly respond to the requirements of the moment. She has the ability to engage in two occupations at the same time, so it is likely that she will choose to be a lecturer, and in her spare moments follow a journalistic career. Melvin Harris, being born under the sign of Scorpio, is often “bossy”, but he is usually docile, quiet, capable and practical. For continued good health, he needs rest, sleep, gentle music, and total abstinence from highly-seasoned foods or stimulants. He would do well in the profession of policeman, which requires muscular strength, risk, and daring. Ella Mae Davis does not like to be forced or expected to give an account of herself or of her household details. She will have a hard time accumulating wealth, due to various obstacles in her path. An outstanding characteristic is her abundance of sympathy for dumb animals. She will be a good hotel keeper. LaVaune Larsen. In love, she is impetuous and believes in short engagements. She will be a victim of love at first sight. Her best cure for any ailment is to be out in the open air playing golf. She is destined to be a silk merchant. Lewis Wilcox is kind-hearted and affectionate. His desire for change and new experiences may lead him to take up the occupation of commercial traveler. This, too, may cause him to marry more than once. Maxine McDowell. The Arian often “rushes in where angels fear to tread.” Those born under this sign possess much mental energy and are subject to ailments of the throat and heart. As an auctioneer she will find immediate success. Mary Jane Buzzetti is careful and cautious and possesses much patience. The friends she chooses are cultured, refined, and have social standing combined with wealth. Her greatest danger of illness is over-indulgence, and she needs to be taught moderate and correct eating. Her greatest success would be gained as a decorator. Neil Ledford has a desire for wealth and usually makes an extra effort to save money. A noticeable characteristic is that, after the greatest overthrow, he is soon ready to commence work anew with all the ardor of his original enthusiasm. As a gardener he would be most successful. Thelma Kalberg. The Cancer individual has no difficulty in recalling incidents in the past in history and in things forgotten by the public and others about them. When acting along personal lines only, she becomes very emotional, romantic, and superstitious. Her interest in public affairs and community welfare will make her an excellent welfare-worker. Helen Rennick is generally cheerful, slow to anger, but very independent. She will not be fortunate in business partnership because, due to her trusting nature, she is apt to be imposed upon. Her love of the out-of-doors will cause her to be an explorer. Lloyd Huss makes friends easily and is a natural leader among his associates. Under the sign of Leo, he is especially dependent upon affection and cannot exist happily without it. He is usually fortunate and will become an excellent naval officer. Louise Ferguson, as an Arian, admires scientific thought and is quite philosophical. She is liable to injuries about the head. Tuesday is her important day, and red is her color. As a photographer, she will become wealthy. Marie Jensen is generous and full of sympathy for the public good and mav be found among the prime movers of great humane enterprises. She has powers of divination by means of cards, tea cups, crystals, or prophetic dreams. Because of her stability and honesty, she may be selected as an executive officer in industrial plants. Russell Swaby, as a Gemini individual, will have great natural powers to heal and mend with the hands. He may be considered very progressive and his lucky day is Wednesday. He is destined to be a taxidermist. Helen Franklin is curious and given to investigation; she is clever at planning and making both ends meet. Her love nature is deep, passionate, and constant, though (Continued on Page 109) Eighty Eighty-one Rogues’ Gallery Name Favorite Pastime Outstanding: Characteristic Usually Seen Ix is Barrows Batting her eyelashes Dainty hands With Mary Jane Horace Bunston Conversing without permission Laughing With uncracked book covers Mary Jane Buzzetti Walking on crutches Dignity W’ith a plaster paris cast Fern Candee Plugging a typewriter Small With Arvilla Louise Clifford Flirting Natural curls so rare in H.

ROSEBERRY Principal St. Paul, Kansas. Kansas State Teachers’ College, Pittsburgh, Kansas. University of Washington, Seattle. The District 17-H plan of presenting work to the pupils has l’eceived recognition throughout the State of Montana. In the fifth, sixth, and seventh grades, departmental work is carried on. Here each pupil is given an opportunity to work up to his capacity, and the faster pupils are not retarded in progress by the slower ones. The Hardin grade schools have approximately four hundred and twenty-five pupils enrolled and thirteen faculty members. The school sponsors hot lunches for children dependent upon the county and Red Cross and for Indian children. About two hundred and fifty pupils eat lunch at school every day. Boy and Girl Scout organizations exist in the upper grades, and function actively. The Hardin Grade School sponsors a District 17-H grade school paper, “The Little Horn.” Fifty copies are published every month. The grade pupils take active part in the School Savings System, sponsored by the high school. The average weekly deposit for the grades is forty dollars. The Junior Red Cross organization has a membership of three hundred and fifty pupils in the grades. This organization has undertaken, and successfully carried out, a number of worthwhile projects of national scope. The cooperation of the conscientious faculty members results in the development of the above worthwhile activities. Griffith, Amundsen, Williams, Nelson Kelley. Alford. Roseberry.

Jane, Jessie McLeod, was anxious to find Santa Claus and she was searching for him, hoping the little wood folk and fairies would direct her. But instead, they refused as she had not been kind to her pets and playmates at home. She afterwards decided to be more kind and unselfish so that they would help her find Santa Claus. The seven choruses consisted of the rabbits, the snowflakes, the brownies, the sunbeams, the toy soldiers, and the dolls and goblins. The Christmas fairies were: Kindness, Clarise Koebbe; Helpfulness, Shirley Cloffey; Goodwill, Helen Beall; Unselfishness, Martha Beall; Love, Wanda Snyder; and Wangaloo, the Spirit of Selfishness, was well acted by A1 Sibley. There were about ninety students in the operetta with Alberta Ewing as spokesman. Miss Dorothy Kelley and Miss Mary Roseberry directed the operetta, assisted by the other members of the grade school faculty. Miss Stella Amundsen had charge of the costumes. Ninety Girl Scouts The Girl Scout organization exists to give girls over ten years of age an enlarged range of pleasures stressing the benefits derived from healthful exercise in the outdoors and to develop a love for the beauties of nature. We try to be cheerful, do our good turns daily, and to be prepared to help others at all times. Leaders: Mrs. Orin Weir, Dorothy Waisner, Mattie Williams, Margaret Nelson, Stella Alford, Inez Griffith, Mrs. J. J. Ping, Mrs. G. M. Harris, Claribel Johnson, Dorothea Eder. Boy Scouts Each new school year brings new faces to the Boy Scout troop for which we are grateful. The scouts believe in the third scout law. “A scout is Helpful.” This is shown by the various community activities which the troop participates in. A few of the activities are listed below: 1. City wide clean up. 2. Old clothes drive for Red Cross. 3. Delivering Christmas baskets for Red Cross. 4. Summer camps. 5. Sponsoring kite contest. 6. Sponsoring hikes. ...... The boys have been advancing rapidly in their scout requirements and are to be highly complimented for their achievements. PERSONNEL Committeeman: 1, Mr. L. H. Labbitt: 2, Mr. A. C. Sweeney: 3.

All teachers of Crow Agency combine their efforts in the production of the operetta. It is an all-school affair and draws a very large and appreciative audience from all corners of Big Horn County. The Crow Agency basket ball team competes on a high school level, using both high school and grade school boys. The team played with much success in Big Horn County and in Sheridan County, Wyoming. Mr. Roberts is the coach. Our school publishes a newspaper regularly. The editing and composing is all done by the students and is a vital feature of the school life. Fourteen boys have participated in the Boy Scout work of the Crow Community during this year. The summer camp activity for last year was carried out during the first week of June in the Little Horn Canyon. The country children are transported to the Crow schools in heated motor busses.

The first day out, a 3torm came up, which they FAUGHT with WHITEMAN courage, the HEL-MAN ever on his job. The storm raged on for days, 'till the grub was about all gone except some DUN-HAM and CANDEE. The COOK said, “We will have to kill the cow that we brought along to Meilke if we don’t get to WENDLAND.” As the days passed by they ate the ham and the Tanner tanned the skin for the COOK to make mittens out of because he had several BURNS on his hands, which he acquired when he tried to save their COLLIER’S magazines from cremation.

On the third day they saw a small boat a short way off and the BUTLER yelled, “TURNER, and we’ll make for it.” As they drew closer they saw that it was a TAYLOR and he had a beautiful WHITEBEAR with him which had a very glossy coat of CURLEY hair. So they took the TAYLOR aboard with them, all being as destitute as Benjamin FRANKLIN in his boyhood days. At last, before starvation had overtaken them, they saw land.

His nature is studious and inquisitive: scientific information appeals to him. A bold and assertive front conceals an inwardly timid and highly nervous nature. He will be an expert accountant.

On their return trip to the castle, they witnessed a wooing party, of the Princes and a Prince; he was smothering her with HUGS and kisses, using his man-like POWERS to win her for his wife.

She is quite talkative, domestic, and very patriotic. Swimming and fishing form her best recreations. She will succeed in an occupation as manager of a restaurant, which requires persistent effort combined with patience. Richard Mielke is easily influenced by kindness but dislikes to be ordered about and positively will not be driven. His judgment and conclusions are rarely wrong. He is destined to become an aviator. Fern Candee always makes the most of her opportunities and is capable of attaining great heights because she possesses ambition and endurance. She believes that eventually she will be wealthy. Weather predicting is one of her pastimes. She will make a good manager in industrial plants. Dorothea Eder, as a daughter of Pisces, is given to visions, premonitions, “daydreaming”, and abstraction. The undeveloped type is inclined to be lazy, obstinate, and intemperate. Under this sign are found instructors in languages. James Torske. His is a character which is singularly precise and orderly, disliking confusion. He objects very much to leaving things in an unfinished state. He finds pleasure in acquiring knowledge from any source, especially by observation and reading. Traveling near large bodies of water appeals to him greatly, so it is likely that he will become a fisherman. Rosie Rimes has an active, inquisitive, changeable character. Her innate desire for diversity mav cause her to change positions just before success comes. It is probable that she will become a milliner. Louise Clifford. People born under the sign of Sagittarius enjoy hunting for big game. She will probably be worthy of collegiate schooling. She seems to have a special talent for promoting big financial deals. Her frank and outspoken character will enable her to become an excellent lawyer. Harry Miller is naturally gentle and abhors “cave-man stuff.” He will not travel a great deal and will be most happy and contented when located in a quiet, shady place. His carefulness will make him an excellent doctor.
