Experience has taught us that equality of opportu- nity lies through education. Deny education and you have denied all. Education is our most important concern. Never has there been such an interest in schools. From every side come criticism and suggestions. Some way our children must be prepared for the future but they cannot be as specifically prepared for a specific future as people used to think they could. Who, forty years ago, could have planned a curriculum that would have prepared our boys and girls for the realities of today? All the teacher can do is to inculcate certain attitudes and values, certain habits and ways of thinking, which he hopes will help the boys and girls meet whatever problems they have to face when they become adults. Principal's Message H.R. Salyer, Superintendent Administration Jr. High's Message To the Freshman Class: You have now completed the transition from grade to high school. If you wish success in your next three school years, try WORK. There is no substitute for it. Luke Dyche, Junior High Principal The revealment of the formal educational acquirements of any individual must await the passage of time. This yearbook discloses many of the learnings of immediate dexterity, both mental and manual, and some few of the philosophical knowledges attained in the class of journalism. It is an expressed hope that the coming years will reveal still more of these learnings. P.M. Goller, Senior High Principal School Board At the expiration of their term of office, rwo members, Mr. Sam Denny and Mr. Darroll Warren retired from the Board of Directors of School District 17-H.

In regular season play the Bulldogs romped o-ver Miles City in Hardin's first home game, a pre-season nonconference contest. When the Bulldogs began conference play, they beat rival Fergus on the home court; then on five consecutive weekends, they went on to muster an undefeated record for the first half of the season. The Bulldogs found the second round competition a little stiffer and lost their first game of the season to Laurel; but defeat was bitter for the Hardin club and they gained ten more conference victories. They cinched the conference title in the BulldogTs final home game of the season against Glasgow. The Bulldogs had posted twenty-one wins and one loss as they prepared for the State Tournament.

To receive the Coach of the Year Award, Mike Gesuale, Hardin's round ball mentor, tutored his Bulldogs to a 23-2 season record, this included the conference championship and second place in the State Tourney at Billings. Coach Gesuale based his strategy on a strong alternating defense combined with a smooth-working functional offense. Hardin opened the season by winning the Billings Central Invitational Tourney during Thanksgiving weekend. Don’t touch it, it causes warts. ZIMMER! Coach Mike Gesuale.
