CLASS HISTORY In different schools over the nation on one day in September, 1936, ten scrubbed little faces that were some day to grace Imbler’s class of ’48 skipped gaily to their first day of school. Here in Imbler, only one of these ten began her school life that year. That was our own laughing, singing Jo Paroz. She happily breezed through that first year of school to be joined in her third year by shy, serious Maxine Barton, one of the class’s up and coming young artists. Hand in hand, losing a little enthusiasm and gaining a little knowledge of how things go, these two members of today’s class trudged through grade school’s happy days. Carefree and gay, they found delight in heckling teachers and generally being mischevious. In their eighth year they were joined by Fay Quebbeman, gay, vivacious, and always laughing. These three laughed and pranked their merry way through to the exalted day when eighth grade diplomas came and high school was just around the corner. September again, this time in 1944, and our merry three were joined by Summerville’s grade school graduates, Mary Hollins, Mildred Calhoun, and Willodean Fisher. Mary, dark-eyed and pretty, made friends instantly and was immediately accepted, even by those exalted personages, the Seniors. Mildred, shy and sweet with golden brown hair and a friendly smile, became our top scholar and finally the class valedictorian. Willodean, usually known as “Bill’ is our future photographer. You always see her smiling face behind a camera or behind the windshield of the old gray Chevrolet. In our Sophomore year we gained another shy member, Aileene Stephens, small, dark, and always ready with a friendly smile for everyone. In the middle of that year, a blonde girl from Oklahoma was added to the rapidly growing group. This was Arlajean Tufford, blue-eyed and smiling. This group remained together until our Junior year when we were joined by Roberta Roberts, dark-eyed and appropriately nicknamed “Elgin”. She had been ill and forced to drop out of the class of ’47 in which she originally belonged. Their loss was our gain. In 1947 we gained our one and only male member, Carl Gali, Montana’s pride and joy. Blonde, friendly, and a football enthusiast, Carl is a welcome member of our class. This completes our group and we are soon to be leaving our friends and teachers behind as we tackle the great world. Goodbye school days— we shall miss you.
