Whether as a Senior you are leaving these school halls for the last time, or whether the parting is for the summer days only, may I offer the following: BENEDICTION OF FRIENDLINESS The sun be warm and kind io you. The darkest night, some star shine through. The dullest morn, some 'radiance brew. And when dusk comes, God's hand to you. L. A. WHITE June McLeod, J. C. Lund, Secretary of the Board Secretary to fhe SUP9l'iDf9fld0Dl The Flight of Time that well known study in stone by Lorado Taft, situated near the University of Chicago, is a con- stant inspiration to all who see it. That statue and this Annual have a common theme. Time indeed marches cm! School life is a cross-section of living made up of ef- forts, hopes and realizations. It is my hope that your efforts as Seniors and your time in this school will bring a deep realization of Life more Abundant. J. H. COLTON Mr. Colton has a visitor FACULTY f .1 , ' y six W f A M.

Seniors! with our heads full of all sorts of things and less room than ever for our brains. This is the year we showed a few people what a prom really can be. G0- ing steady was just a habit. My, but we were young. Very green year. We were even old enough to go to the Bismarck tourna' ment. Johnny Mabin quit Sunday Schoolg too bad . . . he'd have had a chain of pins way to the floor if he'd kept going. Just a bunch of sprouts. We stumbled across that long stage for our diplomas. Wasn't that the year that Nooky and Johnny Pence ..... Russian peanut craze begun. Jiggs Sands was pretty smart thoughg he dug them out of Miss Shaw's wastebasket. Glenn Benson was being fought over. Ray McComb and Joe Knapstad, track stars, helped earn a cake for their home room. I guess flirts a1'e made not born: Mr. Goehring made Marge Foster sit with Jim Reinarts for not paying attention. The prizefighters, Joyce Lund, Chuck Luskow, and Ruth Mohagen went to beat up on one of their enemies. That must be the year Les Bondly got his start. Johnny Mabin went to Sunday School this year. Maxine Aakrann prac- ticed her piano lessons three hours a day. Bubbles, Bernice W., Jean F., Muggs, Helen, Ruthie, and most of the class were spanked on the hands with a ruler for talking. Qlt didn't make much of an impression? Bob Holmes had a crush on Esther Margaret way back when . . .' Way back in 1929 Natalie Nelson told a naughty joke in English class . . Were you there, then? Donna Marie started young. She took Pie's hat and wouldn't give it back 'til he kissed her. SENIOR CLASS PROP!-IECY Vacation l95O Tickets! Tickets! Buy your tickets here! The barker, D. Quammen, is our first glimpse into the 1950 World's Fair at Blue Moon, North Da- kota. Of course, we don't need a ticket because we've a couple of Annie Oakleys from our politician friend, George Washington Carlsen. A guide picks us up and we dash thru the gate. He takes us down the Avenue of Flags. Say, isnit that Ray McComb grinding on his organ? There's Willie Boehrs popping Chuck Luskow's balloons. Say, he's got toy monkeys for sale, too. Good Heavens! That bus driver almost drove over a poor innocent old lady. Look who's helping her across the street-it's James LaFlame. He's selling orange forget-me-nots. CPerhaps we'll have to buy one, just for old times sakes.J Now where are we going? To the Industrial Section? Good. Isn't that Ruth Levich? Look, she is selling Getzlaff's Health Soap for the tired and aching feet. Across the street is Bill Aaker Cremember?D demonstrat- ing how to build additions on to shoes that are too small. And there's Edith Tollefson balleyhooing about the new dimple-maker she invented- works over night or you're out of luck. Right beside her is Barker Bus Lang, giving a trial permanent to Howie Christianson, the most eligible bachelor in town. Time out for lunch!! Let's go to Podruchny's Czechoslavakian Chuck House. Over the door we see this motto- When Better Eats Are Made, Tell Us, We Want Some, Too. Let's take a table near the window so we can see everything that's going on. Well, if it isnit Beatrice Moffitt lead- ing her fifty Dachshunds. CWe've heard on the sly that she runs an ex- clusive dog farm just out of the city.J Here comes the waiter, finally: why it's John Pence, the best dressed waiter in town. Ritzy Joint this- even a floor show. Isn't that Donna Claire Anderson going into her dance? Heel and toe, hop, one, two, three. ..to the strains of Dorothy Coffey and her All-American orchestra. She still wears that big diamond on her finger. Oh, here comes the clowns. What! Is that Lillian Berg in Page 33 Page 34 the lead? And there's Duane Emme, prominent member of the President's cabinet. Is he going to speak? I suppose so-he always was. Tom Coons, and Esther Jeanne are doing an adagio dance-Tom is still throwing things around. He's got his hands full now cuz Esther's a trifle plumper now-210 we hear. Ah, here comes Anabelle Weber. She's going to sing-and the song is My Darling Nellie Gray. She's using so much pathos that Elroy Tay- lor and Lee Fawbush are in tears. They're that famous team, Taylor and Fawbush-Acrobats. Great Scott! We've forgotten our purses! The manager, Roy Kitagawa, says we'll have to wash dishes for our meal! We're getting a big reception in the kitchen by Harry Eck, chief cook and bottle washer- I always knew he'd do big things, to help keep this world clean. Oh, oh, someone else has pulled the same trick ahead of us. O.K. Bob Kermott- aren't you through school yet? You wash and we'll dry. How about it? Gee, tanks. So, to work, with Ernie Hamilton, pastry cook, looking on. He's also their vice-president in charge of tying bows in shoestring po- tatoes. Finally, we're done and bounced out on the end of Dead-End Hannaford's foot. We sneak around to the front and bump smack into Paddy Frank, displaying how to dump garbage gracefully. On our way again! Next stop Schussler's Music Hall on the North Lagoon. Bob Fruh's symphony orchestra is playing there nightly. Hot stuff. Oh let's not go in-it's too tragic to see him calmed down so. Well, Magic Island, the amusement center is now to be honored by our presence. There's Merle Goldberg running the sky ride-they need someone light. Let's go on the Merry-go-round Cmore our styleh. If there isn't Kenny Pruitt hanging on for dear life-no wonder, look who's run- ning it-Jim Reinarts. Well, there's Papa Van Sickle's little boy, Harry, selling tickets for the ferris wheel. fQuite a change for a former Class Presidentj. Next stop is the Hall of Fame. The first thing we see is Kenny An- dersonls first pair of false teeth. And there's David Jones' first washing machine-guess he's batching it girls. Les Bondly's Golden Gloves are here too and there's Jean Lansing looking at them and saying, I knew him whenv--l. There's the plaque Camilla Ness won for first rate acting in Everything's Calm -sequel to Gone With the Wind, written by Jerome Diamond. And of course, the next place to visit is the Hall of Science. There's Dr. M. Unwin demonstrating at what rate to eat your food so as to get the most nourishment from it. Stooge Snydal is heaping her plate full fwonder how long this can last?b Beth Ringo seems interested, too... but perhaps shels reducing. There seems to be a commotion at the end of the hall-Ramona Hearonemus just fainted. The technician-why it's Donna Marie Nelson-says she needs a transfusion, but then she's al- ways looking for business. But it seems all Ramona needs is a drink of water. Fetch it for her O'Brien. He can afford to, too because he's the president of the Sparkle Proof Water Co. At the other end of the hall Bubs Valker and Phyllis Scott are trying to get some attention. They're showing a new carpet beater-suitable for husbands, too. Opsvig likes it, Bubs says. The Court of States is right next door so let's go. We can hardly wait until we see the Minot Exhibit, of course it will be the best. Floyd Freda is exhibiting a shock of exquisite Wheat. lrving Gordon is show- ing relics from our ferocious Indians. Say, he's brave. We're afraid to look at them. Jane Brandt is selling pictures of our State Capitol. fAnd she was going to be a veterinarianll Well, anyway, business seems to be very good with Jane as a decoy. Viola Fornes and Lucretia Fisher are showing gold in the Californian exhibit... Chow did they get way out there??J Cora Mellum and Esther Stahl are working in the New York exhibit-Go East young man .... Jim Tibbs is directing people into the Hall of Religion for the daily sermon. Willis Piper, the minister, has for his topic today So Help Me.' Marge Danielson is directing her a cappella choir that is if she can reach the music stand. Betty Peters does all the soloing, too. In the front row Lou Barlow is combing her hair just to keep busy. And in the back row Johnny Mabin, Mighty Lee, and Bob Holmes are playing war with their little tin soldiers Cthey swiped them from Buzzy Hagen, who's still cry- ing.J Ah, let's go slumming to the Foreign Section. Ahem, Sunny Purdy's Egyptian Dancers, starring Cleopatra Lewin, have the most attention. Lefty Miller and Lenoard Freisen have had reserved seats since the fair opened.

There are 232 members, each doing his part to make his class outstanding. During this, the junior year, they presented the play, Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen, showing that they have outstanding talent in dramatic work. They sponsored an all-school Valentine's Day dance with attractive decorations. The Junior-Senior prom with its interesting Dutch setting showed pleasing originality. Juniors and seniors who did not care to attend the prom were guests at a theater party. Even as froshmores, the boys of this class excelled in sports, taking part in track, basketball, and football. The girls also have an excellent record in sports having won the inter-class championship in both basketball and volley- ball this year. The junior class has among its members some who excel in al- most every activity offered in the high school.

The Maroon and Gold downed Ryder 29-20 in the first game and dropped Stanley 27-20 in the second tilt. Despite early season raggedness, the Magicians show- ed some good passing and shooting. On December 6, the Magicians defeated Rugby for their third victory of the season. The Panthers came back strong in the third period, cutting Minot's early lead to 16-13, but our boys rallied late in the last quarter, and were out in front 25-18 when the final gun sounded. Before a large crowd the St. Lf-o's Lions, State Flass B champs, stopped a last period rally to shade the Maroon and Gold 29-25. The Magicians, though they outscored their across the street rivals from the field, were able to make only 3 of 13 gift shots. On Friday, December 21, the Magicians clicked in the second half to down the Poplar, Mont., Indians, 23-12. Minot led only l 8-7 at the half, but turned on l the steam in the final two pei- 1 iods to win handily. Charles Stenersen set the pace with his looping shots from far out on the court, as Minot up- set the Grand Forks Redskins 25-21. Grand Forks jumped into an early lead, and it took some time for Minot to solve the Red- skin offense, which time and again left Norman Gronna open for short set shots from the side. During the Christmas vaca- tion period the Magicians played a double header with two alumni quints. The older grads were defeated by the second team, but the first five was no match for the recent Maroon and Gold stars, whose height and experience gave them an easy win. Edison High School of Minneapolis, with their scor- ' ing sensation, Tony Jaros, counting 15 points, dumped the Magicians 37-21 on Friday, Dec. 30. The fast-breaking Tommies set the pace all the way, and except for a third period rally, Minot never threatened. Minot's next opponent was the Williston Coyotes. This was the first meeting of the two teams and for three quarters the Maroon and Gold held Williston even, with the score tied at 22 all at the end of the third period, But Johnny Mach's five connected from all over in the final stanza to gain a 38-29 victory over the Magicians. Devils Lake's Satans, State Class A finalists, defeated the Magicians 31-26 in a fast and rough game played on the Laker's floor Friday, Jan. 20. Twenty- nine fouls were called on the two teams. Chuck Luskow led the Magic City quint with eight points. Blocked roads forced Minot to cancel the second game of the trip with Park River. The Coyotes came to Minot for the second meeting of the two teams and went home with another win over the Magicians, this time edging out a 25-22 verdict. Again it was the last period that spelled defeat. Johnny Moline led the visitors with six field goals, most of them from far out on the floor. Bismarck's high-riding Demons came to the Magic City on Feb. 3, and were nosed out 36-35 in a thrill-packed game. Led by Chuck Luskow, who racked up 15 points, the Magicians won on a last period rally, climaxed by Stenersen's Winning free throw with a minute left to play. Minot evened terms by dumping Devils Lake's Satans 33-24 in the second meeting of the two teams. The Maroon and Gold played smoothly and took a lead early in the third period and went on to win handily, Buzz Hagen led the scoring with eight points. Monday, Feb. 13, was indeed unlucky for the Magicians, who led and out- played St. Leo's Lions the entire game only to lose 34-32 in a sudden death overtime. A Lion basket just as the gun sounded tied the contest at 32 all and a long shot in the overtime gave the Saints their lucky win. Fargo's Midgets and the Wahpeton Wops spoiled Minot's two game road trip by handing the Maroon and Gold a twin loss. Wahpeton won 36-26 on Friday, and the next night the Midget's were victorious 45-30. On March 24 and 25 a crippled Magician five, without the services of Chuck Luskow traveled to Mandan and Bismarck and lost both games. Against the Braves, Minot lost 29-255 but on Saturday they played a bang-up game only to drop a 32-31 decision to the Demons on a last-seven-seconds free throw. For the second straight year Minot was beaten out for the right to play in the Class A tournament, when on March 3, they were defeated by Osnabrock 31-29. The Maroon and Gold trailed all of the way and could not spurt enough to catch the Cavalier county boys, The next day the Magicians returned to close their season with a 19-16 win over the N. D. U. freshmen quint. The frosh were rated the best at the University in recent years. Thus, the curtain was brought down on as off and on a cage season as Minot has had in many years.

Playing a schedule, which included games with some of the best class B teams in this part of the state, the Minot High Reserve basketball team, coached by Bill Leidholdt, won 8 games and lost 5 during the season. The Baby Magicians displayed a good, aggressive brand of bas- ketball and gave promise of supplying next year's Magicians with some fine material. They won over Granville, St. Leo's Reserves Ctwicej, Donnybrook, Balfour, Rolette, the Froshmores, and Ryder. Games were dropped to Lansford, Washburn, Mu Sigma Fraternity at the Teachers College, Don- nybrook, and Max. Kondos and White led in the scoring column, but in every game the scoring was well divided. During the 13 game season the Reserves scored 384 points to their opponents 302.

In the Ward County meet, Minot High scored 6410 for Kenmiare. Bill Fuller broke the quarter mile record, running the course in 46 seconds. At Williston, Min-ot placed second, gar- nering 47 points. The Crosby relays offered the Minot boys revenge over Williston. Minot Won the meet by 6X7 of a point, accumulating 345f14 to Williston's 331f20. Che-t McCar- roll set a record of 42 fe-et, 10 inches, in the shot put. The mile relay team estab- lished a record in that relay doing it in 4 minutes. Minot retained its district '7 track crown, outscoring Mohall 33 to 22. Minot took only two first places, but added enough points from second, third, and fourth places to overcome Mohall and 15 other schools participating. TOP ROW-fLe!'t to right- Leikness, Ellefson.

The Cheer I,m-'ading Quzlrh-'L The purpose of the Pep Club is to promote an interest among the girls in support cf all the athletic events of the school. The Pep Club had a reserved section at the Basketball and Football games which was the mainspring of Minot High cheering. OFFICERS President - - ---- MARGUERITE NEWMAN Vice President - - KATHRYN BALERUD Secretary - - - MAIIIAN CARLSON Treasurer - MARJORIE FREDRICKSON New members, mostly juniors, were given a royal initiation. They looked very funny with their skirts upside down, and the egg-rolling proved dis- astrous. Loyalty Day was sponsored by the Pep Club, This was perhaps the great- est event of the year. At a peppy assembly Bob Holmes, football captain, crowned Helen Froid, queen. The only rain of the season failed to stop the parade which followed. After the Bismarck game the auditorium was packed for a free dance. Everybody wore paper footballs. After sending a lively bunch of rooters to Williston, the club sponsored an all school nickelodeon dance on January 14. In February, the Pep Club put on a successful doughnut sale. Then as spring rolled 'round and graduation neared, the Senior Pep Clubbers were guests at a luncheon held in their honor on May 9. As a grand finale came the never-to-be-forgotten Lettermen's Ball on May 29, an affair second only to the prom. Jimmie Fen- nell's orchestra jived amid a very clever setting. Pep Club officers led the grand march. Thus the curtain is drawn on a successful year in which a well organized Pep Club has proved one of the most effect- ive of school activities. NYhat Are You Looking At? 6. A. A. The Girls Athletic Association was organized to promote an interest in athletics as a recreation. The aim of every member of G. A.

The St. Leo's Lions for the second year in a row won the State Class B Basketball tournament held in the high school gymnasium March 16, 17, and 18. Large crowds attended all games and the tournament was run off in com- mendable fashion. Minot was also host to the tournament last year and plans are underway to hold it here every year. The Lions staged an uphill battle in the second half of the championship game but two baskets in the last minute gave them a 36-22 win over the smooth Larimore quint. Fessenden defeated Langdon 35-30 to take third place, and Powers Lake downed New Leipzig for consolation honors. The tourney was marked by the close play of all the teams. This was shown by the fact that Larimore, the team which gave St. Le0's such a terrific battle in the finale, was hard pressed in the first round of play by St. Mary's who finished seventh in the tourney. The All-Tournament team picked by the officials was as follows: Ardell Draxton, Larimofre, and Alan Adams, Fessenden, forwards. Bob Murie, Lang- don, at center. Ed Claussen, St. Leo's, and Merylen Welter, Larimore, guards. George Mellem was tournament manager and L, S. Hertin and Andy An- derson, both of Rapid City, S. D., were the officials.

Senior Class Play In t'Take My Advice, the cast of eight, under the capable directfion of Miss Anna Ackermann, proved their ability to provide an entertaining and successful characterization of a modern play. Take My Advice concerns the Weaver family, a typical average Ameri- can family. A 'stage-struck daughter, a son's love affair, a bogus oil sales- man, and a trouble shooting' professor provide plenty of entertaining action.

HELONY- Ii Says in Emily Post . , . Home Economics The Home Economics Depart- ment under Miss Mildred Peterson made two changes this year. The subject was taught one hour a day instead of the usual two, and a Home Economics II course was offered. In both these courses the plan of sewing one semester and cooking' during the other was fol- lowed. Meals w e r ei planned a n d served, and budgets for both time and money were made. The first year classes served a luncheon to the school board. The second year classes entertained the Home Eco- nomics teachers at a luncheon dur- ing the teachers' convention. The Home Economics I classes made two cotton garments and completed one re- lated home project. The Home Economics II classes completed a renova-tion project and made a wool garment. They also studied home nursing. Both classes modeled their garments in a style show at a pay assembly. Phyllis Robson represented the first year classes and Betty Hayden 'the second year classes at the annual Home Economics Festival in Fargo where they competed with girls from all over the state in Home Economics contests.

D.M.N. ,39 part X, Page 98 Junior Prom I939 Ideal weather cooperated with the spirit of the evening, as the Junior Prom was held in the auditorium April 27. The auditorium was decorated to represent a Dutch scene. The canopy was an enormous wooden shoe filled with h u n d r e d s of multi-colored tulips. Two windmills turned realis- tically and rhythrnically at the south end of the floor. The Junior class president, Jack Aaker, and his guest, Maxine Aak- rann, led the grand march. Art Jacobson and his orchestra supplied the music for the dances which were appropriately named, Zuyder Zee Z wingf, Saurkraut Shag, etc. Girls Like to Meet the Camera Man Those smiles mean some more A's. Is this smile about right? Hurry up! Here's the camera man! Don't let that pole get away. Hold still, and you'1l be safe. Pretty girls make such awful faces.

Page 100 Junior Prom l938 The setting for the 1938 prom was a deep sea with colored fish, enchant- ing mermaids, and sea flowers decorating the walls. The canopy was patterned after a lily pond. The grand march started through HDavy Jones' Locker with Charles Lang, Junior class president, and his guest, Edith Tollefson, leading. Favors were found in a huge treasure chestg they were tiny silver and gold sea shells. The names of the dances also followed the deep sea theme. Thus, That, and the Other 1. Waaaaaah!

So he went to his pal, by name Myron Lee, Who handles the gals in a manner carefree. They hatched up a scheme that just couldn't flop, And our little Holmesey was set for the hop. The scheme was as simple as simple could be, And it was repeated once in history. John Alden went a-Wooin' while Capt. Smith looked Priscilla said, Why not speak for yourself, John. Now Holmes and Lee had a similar plan, With Myron acting as the lead-off man, The girl was-no, I won't tell you her name- But here is the action that won Lee his fame. He went to the girl with a smile so sweet That the lady was swept right off her feet, And here is the fact, I hope you'll note, That makes this story an anecdote. Myron looked at the gal, and his eyes were bright. Will you go to the dance with Bob Holmes tonight? But the little miss put him on the shelf With Why don't you ask me for yourself? So Myron went to the hop that night, And Bobby studied with all his might, Over books of etiquette did he glance, And now he himself asks the girls to the dance, on, as D.
