Then a battered paper fell at his feet. Johnny pounced on it eagerly-no, it wasn't his English paper. He started to throw it aside, but his curiosity got the best of him. He blew off the dust, shook open the paper and slowly began reading the inscription, The Last Will and Testament of the Class of '47. Ignoring the bell he continued: We, the Class of 1947, under the influence of spring fever, do hereby bequeath to our worthy successors the memories of many happy hours spent in Midwest High, plus a few of our own invaluable possessions. Ginger Connors is leaving her beau-ti-ful dimples to Reta Wick. We hope they will be as useful to Reta as they were to Ginger. 'Tee-hee', said Joyce Hooley when we asked her if we could give away her giggle. After a little consideration she decided she would rather just lend it. So, Donna Carr, we are letting you use THAT giggle until Joyce comes back for it. To Ardythe Bieg, Pat George is giving her enticing way with men. Need we say more? That lucky Charles Lewis is getting Norman Carter's supply of bobby pins. For details on how to use them, see Norman. Melvin Warford has decided to leave Vic Nottingham his quiet manner. A hush-hush proposition, we believe. After much persuasion, Everett Chaffin finally contributed his Bay-Window . We are giving it to Jimmy Clabaugh. We know we shouldn't, but we couldn't resist the idea of slender little Jimmy with a stomach like that. Bettie 'Moo' Nall bequeaths her cows and her wonderful C21 '39 Chevrolet to Raymond Rorabeck. Betty guarantees many interesting and unusual experiences with these possessions. Harold 0'Connor will soon be the proud possessor of the height for which he has been wishing. Verne Hansen is leaving his long, long legs to Hairly . It was hard to decide which of Clifford Hendryx's many gifts he should donate. Our final decision was to leave Cliff's wa-d of gum to Miss Repp as she has been trying to get it all year. After Dorsey Chabo wears his essay medal on his graduation gown, he will let Dave Adams use it on very special occasions. However, Dave, you must promise to shine it carefully once a week. Larry Terpening is leaving his 1934 Chevrolet to Gaylord Brow. Keeping this car on the road requires the use of both han-ds, Gaylord. A prize possession, that of Jack Hahn's horse, Gilda, is going to Ivan Million. P. S. Ivan MIGHT be getting a bargain-two in one. To Jeannine Work, we are giving Harry Clabaugh's ability to pester anyone and everyone. This, plus, Jeannine's own talent will probably cause Mr. Gilbertson and Miss D-ille to take up residence in Evanston. A collection of excuses for morning tardiness is Jeanie Stephens' gift to Barney Hoy. George S1aughterbeck's corny joke book is going to Mr. Davis and Coach Bays. We hope they won't both pull the same joke the same day. Richard Moore is leaving his Mt. View blonde to Allan Carr, if she still be- longs to Richard at the end of the year. Joan McCain bequeaths her mania for the wooden ducks to Shirley Van Norman. They enchant you, too, don't they Shirley? Not being able to consult Gloria, we are willing her nickname, Dinky , to her little brother, Allen. And last, but not least, Mardelle Harvey's bottle of peroxide is left behind for those young ladies who prefer to be dirty old blondes . funquotej . We wish to leave to the faculty our appreciation for their patience and under- standing during the past four years. Signed and sealed this sixteenth day of April, nineteen hundred and forty-seven. CLASS OF '47 Midwest Highschool CZ55Z5 014 fzabe W- Senior Success The Class of '47 entered the halls of M.H.S. deter-- ,,... mined to prove our superior ability. As shining examples we offered our class officers: Jack Hahn, president, Ginger U Connors, vice-presidentg Charlene Schuster, secretary, and i I Joan McCain, treasurer. Mrs. Connors was chosen spon- KI sor. Two weeks later, considerably wilted, we all emerged I from our formal initiation into high school. The Seniors I- descended upon us with a vengeance. Later in the year c -1 'W twenty-seven green youngsters retaliated by opening the - - 5 new Canteen with a party for our tormentors. This party was declared, by popular consent, to be the best party of its kind ever given by a Freshman class. As our first year ended, the class found very little money in its coffers, but that bothered us not at all. As Sophomores we elected ofiicers and a sponsor, and began a campaign to raise money. The officers were Gloria Grifiin, presidentg Ginger Connors, vice-president, Joan McCain, secretary, and Charlene Schuster, treasurer, with Miss Dille as sponsor. With a movie, hot dog sale, bake sale, rafiie, and two one act plays, Elizabeth or 'Liz' , and Amelia in Reverse , the Sophomores delightedly saw their treasury begin to bulge a little at the sides. In September, 1945, our Junior year dawned brightly and full of promise. Ginger Connors was elected president, Gloria Grifiin, vice-president, Charlene Schuster, sec- retary, and Jeanie Stephens, treasurer. Miss Repp and Mr. McLaughlin proved able sponsors. A movie, and the sale of hot dogs and coffee at a football game strained the sides of the treasury and the industry of the class to the breaking point. In March we decided to give a barn dance. We decorated the Gas Plant Hall with lanterns and hay to give that barn effect, and requisitione-d a hay wagon to give the revelers a real old fashioned thrill. Then work began on the Prom, and the treasury became decidedly deflated. The Emerald City from The Wizard of Oz provided an unusual theme. The gym had a ceiling of solid green streamers, and along the walls were banks of poppies. ln the center was a fountain and pool with tiny goldfish swimming in the water. On the stage stood a castle with a golden road leading up to it through billowy clouds. It was a beautiful prom and all who attended had a memorable evening. The Seniors attempted to ditch us on the annual sneak day shortly aft-erwards, but since everybody was determined to go to Story, Seniors and Juniors 'became slightly mixed in one anothers' cars, and most of the ditching was done on horseback. A little sadly, We attended that year's commencement and knew that we were next. The oliicers who carried the class through this last year were Norman Carter, president, Jack Hahn, vice-president: Joyce Hooley, secretary, and Mardelle Harvey, treasurer. Miss Repp and Mr. McLaughlin again sponsored the class. Remembering the humiliation of three years before, we became very severe with the Wee Tots . We imposed a week's curfew, ending with Initiation Day and Kangaroo Court. We, as privilge upper classmen, wandered through study hall carrying pillows and licking our all-day suckers with relish. Kangaroo Court provided baths and a few charges for the Frosh. Also the obstreperous Juniors succeeded in smearing the mighty Seniors with an ample amount of lipstick. We repeated the barn dance of the year before with even more success. While the Juniors planned their prom behind bolted doors, the class worked on a ditch day that would really be a DITCH day. The Juniors ambled far behind wondering which direction to take. After their prom given in our honor, came Baccalaureat and Commencement. Everybody was happy to be free, but rather sor- rowful as they realized they actually would never know such freedom again. During our high school years a number of the class distinguished themselves in various activities. Jack Hahn was basketball star for four years, making the first ten his fresh- man year and the first five each year thereafter. He also was outstanding in football, and earned All-State honors for the 1946 season. Norman Carter made the first ten in basketball his Sophomore year, and the first five his next two years. He was on the football eleven during his first three years in high school. But at the beginning of the '45 season he broke his back during a game, and was unable to play again. Dick Moore had an excellent record in football and won honorable mention for the All-State team his Senior year. He also made the first five on the .basketball team his Senior year. Several members of the class showed brains and won essay contests. Joan McCain and Joyce Hooley placed in the V.F.W. contest their Junior year. Dorsey Chabo won first place Jack Hahn, second, and Joan McCain, third with their American Legion essays their Senior year. Also Pat George and Bettie Nall won first and third places respectively in the V.F.W. contest. Mardelle Harvey became T.N.T. president and worked hard presenting assem- blies and the Football Banquet. Charlene Schuster and Gloria Grifiin also won honors in T.N.T. by being elected cheerleaders their Sophomore and Junior years. Ginger Connors then took over where they left off, and led the cheering section her last year in school. We were unable to obtain a picture of Gloria Griffin.

J L X They started to add to their funds early in V football game, sponsoring a movie, Home Sweet Homicide , and holding a raffle at I - the year by having a hot dog sale at the first Christmas for a blanket. This loot they added to their carefully hoarded funds, and behind locked and shaded doors they planned its disposal on the big affair of the year, the Junior Prom. They closed their Junior year by chasing the Seniors all over the Wyoming territory. They felt ready and able to take on the big' responsibility of next year, after sedately acting as ushers at both Baccalaureate and Commencement. 14 Hawk Rowgleft to right: John Maher, Ivan Million.

The year began cheerfully enough with Barney Hoy elected president, Faye Chatiin, vice-president, Carol Morris, secretary, and llarold 0'Connor, treasurer. Things swung into action with six able bodied men on the football squad and David Adams on the first five in basketball.

But their high spirits soon deflated when they were greeted by the forbidding laces of the Seniors. Feathers and pie flew at initiation and Kangaroo Court.

Working around those lettermen the Oilers soon developed into a small but fast and smooth working team. To prove this they opened the season with a six to nothing win over the unusually large Wheatland eleven. The following week they had things their own way when they romped over Upton on the home field. Variety was added when early in October, the Casper B squad journeyed to Midwest and battled for four quarters in a blinding snowstorm driven by a stiif wind. The Colts went home defeated. The next game proved somewhat difficult as the Buffalo Bison furnished competition with their powerful line, however, the Oilers held together and came from behind in the last quarter to win by five points. Then the oil field eleven buckled down to thoroughly trounce Sundance. Midway through the season with no defeats, the red and white tackled the Newcastle Dogies . They, too, fell before the grit and drive of the mighty 0ilers . For the first time in several years the Bays' coached team played Lusk high school and continued their winning streak by rolling over the Bobcats with a large score. Morale was high as the season neared an end with no defeats. The 'tOile1's con- fidently lined up against the Douglas Bearcats , but, after battling hard all the way, they admitted defeat by a one point margin. Smarting under the only defeat of the year, and playing one of the best games of the season, the Midwest Oilers finally overcame an unorthodox defense, late in the traditional Armistice Day game with Gillette, and the Camels conceded the game. This game gave Midwest their second straight Powder River District Championship and also saw Seniors Verne Hansen, Everett Chaflin, George Slaughterbeck, Cliff Hendryx, Dick Moore, and Jack Hahn carry the ball for the last time. At an assembly a few weeks later, Jack Hahn, speedy quarterback, and three- year letterman was awarded the Casper Tribune-Herald medal for copping All-State honors. Dick Moore, senior half-back, a four-year man, was given honorable mention. Basketball BASKETBALL FORTUNES Shortly after football season, the Midwest crew donned their 'shorts and shirts, and started to work out on the hardwood. Everyone felt that good things were in store when w-e started the season with wins over Riverton, the Midwest American Legion, Douglas, whom we soundly trounced, for they spoiled our football record, and Lander, rumored to be strong. Things were still looking up as the traveling' team played return games with Riverton and Lander and defeated them again. Next came two conference games with Buf- falo and Newcastle on successive week-ends. The ball was really rolling now and two more games were put on the agenda as decisive victories. The game of the year that everyone was working towards proved too much in scoring. However, Nottingham charged down the floor and hit the loop for 22 points, while the rest of the team also played hea-ds up ball. Back in the win column the following week, the Red and White chalked up a win over Wheat- land and a happy crowd saw the ball tipped in more by Midwest than Gillette, in the always interesting game between the two teams. With a large crowd following them, the bas- ketball quintet eked out a victory from the Sheri- dan Broncs , but once again thundered back by walking over Douglas and the Buffalo Bison . The next week-end proved disastrous as Sher- idan invaded the Oil City and barely topped our scrappy five. Gillette, too, journeyed her-e for a non-conference game, and thanks to the accurate shooting and luck of Stopher, Gillette sharpshoot- er, they won by two points. All eyes were glued to the ball in the last two seconds, when Stopher, shooting from mid-court, tossed a high arched ball that barely touched the net as it went through. Basketball was at its height when we once again regained our balance, and quickly ticked off wins over Glenrock, Sundance, Newcastle, and Gillette. A non-conference trip was scheduled to Lar- amie and Wheatland which wound up a loss and a win respectively. March 1, all Midwest turned eagerly to the long awaited return game with Casper's Mus- tangs. Again Casper won, but not until the Mus- tangs knew they had played a ball game. Fight- ing every inch of the way, the Oiler quintet lost by three points. The regularly scheduled season ended and after a brief rest, all ways pointed to Gillette and the District Tournament. The red and white captured third place in a tournament with many upsets. They defeated Buffalo, Gillette, and New- castle, but lost to Sheridan, who, incidentally, took first place. Two weeks later the district winners traveled to Laramie to battle it out for the championship. Midwest surprised the State by winning from Afton, the highly favored team from the south- eastern district. Losing to Thermopolis and Green River eliminated the Oilers , but Hendryx won many tournament honors and Nottingham re- ceived honorable mention on the All-State team. From the first jump until the final whistle, the Midwest team played good ball. The 1947 season ended with 18 wins and 5 losses, also with Jack Hahn, Norman Carter, Verne Hansen, Dick Moore, and Clifford Hen- dryx wearing the red and white for the last time.

E. CLUB The Physical Education Club was formed this year by Miss Fern Bender with Joan McCain as president, Marvene Shidler, vice president, Janiel Sherard, secretary, Pauline Tanner and Ginger Connors, squad leaders. The purpose is to promote interest in physical education activities. The girls themselvse plan these activities in accordance to what they want to do. The members are composed of those taking gym, as the club meets during this period. One of the outstanding projects of this club will be to organize an all-school shuflle board and table tennis tournament during the spring. INTRA-MURAL ACTIVITIES Intra-mural sports and track closed the sport season for 1947. Heading the list of class sports was the basketball tournament which ended with the Senior power- house upset by a determined Junior five. In the semi-finals the sophomores took a hard fought victory from the Freshmen for third place. The ,ping-pong tournament provided more excitement for some of the paddle- crazed students who felt they were more agile than others. Faculty members com- peted with the students. Coach Bays, Oral Davis, John Maher, Vic Nottingham, and Keith Bieg battled their way into the semi-finals, but the list quickly thinned out, leav- ing Coach Bays and Oral Davis to play for the championship. Davis won a close de- cision by topping the Coach three points. A tennis tourney was the final intra-mural sport with contenders battling the weather as Well as opponents for Hnal honors. The winners had their eye on an invi- tation to tilt with Sheridan. The track season brought out a lone letterman, Keith Bieg, from last year but promised some able challengers for the mile, Verne Hanseng for hurdles, Keith Biegg in dashes, Allen Griiiin and Robert Scotty and for the pole vault, Jack Hahn. Others on the squad were: Vic Nottingham, Wallace Petersen, Allan Carr, Jim Schofield, Billy Pike, Bill Daley, Donnie Shoop, John Maher, Barney Hoy, Dave Adams, Harley O'Con- nor, and Johnny Yale. A trip to Sheridan on May 4, was the big inter-school event. .rl Glull Gapefz L . .T.s 7 Hack Row-left to right: Bonnie Lee Pearson.

CLUB The T.N.T. Club made a rousing start this year by sending the boys out to win every football game except one. The girls elected their officers the first meeting with Mardelle Harvey as presidentg Joyce Hooley, vice presidentg Donna Carr, treasurer, and Carol Morris, scretary. Miss Dille and Miss Yearous were able sponsors. Skits and pep talks were prepared before every game to lift the school morale generally, and the team's spirit specifically. The annual Football Banquet, at which the T.N.T. members entertained the football squad, was a great success. The cafeteria was the site of this merry-making. The girls decorated the windows, lights, and tables with the school colors, red and white. A clever centerpiece, consisting of a tiny football field with its goal posts wrapped in red and white crepe paper and with tiny gum drop figures simulating play- ers, held the center of attention. After a delicious dinner, thanks to Mrs. Coggeshall and Mrs. Jerman, Mr. Davis gave a brief speech and Coach Bays presented the sea- son's awards to the boys on the team. Out of the T.N.T. ranks were elected the school leaders, Ginger Connors, Kay Graves, and Betty Parker. These spirited girls led a fine cheering section during the football and basketball seasons.

At the first meeting Mardelle Harvey presided as chairman and called for nomination of oliicers. Since the club attracted so many representatives from all four classes, the charter members decided to elect one otiicer from each class. Thus Richard Moore was chosen Thespisg Kay Graves Auripedes, Duane Averstrect, Acschycus, and Marsha Fleming, Sophocles. Very little has been accomplished this year as far as plays and stage produc- tions are concerned. Instruction in the use of stage make-up given by Mardelle Har- vey and Joan McCain, last year's dramatic students, and some fundamental stage directions are the extent of the year's accomplishments. However, a fine organization has been created and the coming year will no doubt see excellent dramatic programs sponsored by the club.

Argue, argue early and late If a line were crooked he'd argue it straight. Here we come to one of the best A loyal booster who led the rest. We like her grades, her friendly ways, But best we like the way she plays. A new comer she may be But more like her we'd like to see. He'll lend you a dollar or a dime, But with a lady spend his time. Happy I amg from care I'm free Why aren't they all content like me? She's hep to swing and lots of jive'n And really likes a guy named Ivan. In class I never make a peep I simply catch up on my sleep. If I were mayor of the town I'd sell the school or tear it down. She rushes there and rushes back, But for a friend she'll never lack. She has a sweet and winning way Gaining more friends day by day. Dick has got just what it takes And what he hasn't got he fakes. A Dink, a Chink, what makes you think A wedding ring could be a link? If in trouble you should be 1 know the answer, just ask me. All in a moment he had a bad fall It didn't change his pleasure in teasing at all. He was very busy with Alice, class, and sports, And maybe over hasty when he made his retorts. He states a fact and by this token You may well know, the oracle has spoken His quiet manner is no pose He wants no dates, no girl he beaux. 29 Something Special 30 Q53 X K' Wm Www Dumb!! x Q5 'sr' Si FOR ...,,.,,, 31 Hubba, Hubba!!
