As an advisor and guide we chose Miss Dorothy Lee Stark, and eleoted Henry Esp, President; Shirley Boese, Vice President; and Donald Esp, Seoretary-Treasurer. The second week the Sophomores unwound their lassos and roped the fresh- ies in to be initiated. We were forced to divulge our identity by splashing our names in large print on ribbon across our chests. Throughout the week the sophomores demanded obedienoe to inane requests, and the last day, following supplioation to became a member of the student body, we were subjected to individual initiation. As freshmen, Maxine Brown, Mildred Hallberg (now Job), Clyde Riplett, Betty Jane Kolstad, and Virginia Gilbert, together with some sophomores, displayed their histrionic ability in the comedy, Romance In a Boarding House. Betty Jane, who later became a member of the Billings High School, was our leading lady, depicted a social climber busily impressing people with her beauty and importance. Virginia took the part of a deaf old woman. Maxine and Mildred were French ladies. Dramatic efforts during our second year of high school brought forth the freshman—sophomore production, The Haunted Castle in whioh our classmates Rachel Foltz, Clyde Riplett, and Carl Pettit were characters. During that year we were saddened by the loss of a member of our olass, Calvin Wilson. His pallbearers were ohosen from our group. Our offioers for the sophomore class were Henry Esp. President; Everrett Hager, Vioe President; and Donald Esp, Secretary—Treasurer. A great event in the life of a high school junior is that day when olass rings arrive. We were surely no exception as we frantioally accosted other students and teachers with, Do you have fifty cents I may borrow? Many of the Juniors were unapproachable when they finally had those gold beauties on their fingers. We entertained the senior class with a prom worked out in a patriotic theme. The class as juniors presented the three act comedy, Double or Nothing . An aocident preceding the play, in which Bill Green's leg was broken, oaused the play to be postponed while Donald Esp learned the victim’s part. Again Henry Esp was elected President of the class. Bill Green became Vioe President, and Everrett Hager, Seoretary-Treasurer. During our years in high school, the war has gradually been taking its toll from our membership. In 1941, Frank Mullenburg enlisted in the Army, the following year Carl Pettit joined the Coast Guard. Clyde Riplett and Bill Green departed from our senior ranks to join the Navy and Army respectively, and Evan Brock to join the Air Corps. Not only boys but also girls were oalled from our class roll. Esther Riplett discontinued sohool work during our senior year to marry Charles Pape. Ruth Miller fulfilled her patriotic duty by beooming a welder. Kirk Green, a newcomer to Lodge Grass, was eleoted our senior class President. His fellow officers were Rachel Foltz, Vice President; Henry Esp, Seoretary-Treasurer. We were entertained May 1, 1943, by the Juniors at a prom whioh had a Moonlight Sonata theme. Graduation was held May 18, 1943, when we solemnly reoeived our diplomas, resolving to go out to find our places in winning the war, establishing a fair peaoe, and helping to restore the world to normaloy and sanity.
