The town that was usually a quiet little place, was, on this day, a seething mass of humanity and livestock. The day began with the parade which was led by the foreman from the High School Ranch, Superintendent Rowe. Behind him came the top hands from the ranch, who were Mr. Good and Mr. Heyrend. After the parade we hurried over to the grand- stand, as the Rodeo was about to begin. Here we saw the officials of the Rodeo ride about the arena on beautiful horses. Chief official for the day was LaVar Beck, and Rodeo Queen was Gene King- horn while Reed Heileson was the rodeo clown. The action began as the judge's voice rolled out over the arena, Ladies and gentlemen, the first event of the day will be the bucking contest, and now coming out of Chute number I is Mr. Scholar on Freshman, the roughest, toughest cayusc this side of Mexico. They they go-he was almost un- seated that time, but nol- he's sticking. And it's over, ladies and gentlemen. Mr. Scholar rode Freshman! After the rodeo we strolled over to the big tent where some members of the Sophomore family were giving exhibitions in trick and fancy roping. Although the whole act was good, the outstand- ing artists were Don Johnson, Charles Cordon and Jacqueline Lowder. When this act was completed we headed for the side shows and after looking over the big posters we decided to go to the one called the Lost World, which was a presentation of the junior Company from Rigby. Before we went in we talked to the representatives of the company, Keith Bennett, Helen Maughan and Dorothy Horne. Of course they advised us to go in, which we did. We were confronted by a beautiful jungle with Alley Oop grinning at us from one corner, and dinosaurs staring at us from all sides. All in all we enjoyed the Lost World immensely. By this time it was mid-afternoon and time for the gala event of the day to begin. So we sauntered over to the race track to wait for the Senior Handicap to begin. judges were our good friends Orville Lange, Kenneth Burt and Dorothy Jones. As the signal for the start was given the con- testants leaped forward, each eager to win the coveted prizeg but it was soon apparent that Don Johnson was the best there that day. He crossed the finish line a nose ahead of Betty Gene King- horn, who came in second. After the race, we asked the judges for a com- plete program of the day which was The Rodeo, edited by Robert Burton. We wanted it especially as a remembrance of the day. Although the 'sun got hot and we were tired of walking around, we went home feeling much happier for having attended the rodeo as repre- sentatives from the High School Ranch. - NELDA HEBDON sxnsansarsarsnrsasxuxauxavsavsavxaoxaosnsaosnviarsnnxaososavsqosnvsgvs-vsnxavxavxavsarx oxnioxnxnlx IIGIV HIGH ICNOOL -

RODIO'-1940 -snosnnx4aQ4vQuvsorsos4nsnv54nsunx4nsnsnrQ4nsavs4rL4rsnr Nina Miles Dixie Belnap Secretary Advisor Parley Waters Outstanding junior Girl and Boy clunior Class History Three years ago there came into the Rigby High School a very promising crop of Freshmen. How well the day is remembered by the Frosh of that year when the Sophomores decided it was time to show the Frosh how to take it. As we remember it the boys had little green ribbons holding up their hair. As for the girls, they went modern for the day with an upsweep coiffure. The Freshmen assembly that year was presented on December 17. On February 25 the Freshman Frolic was held. This proved that the Frosh were not so green as they were supposed to be. That year proved a very successful one for the Frosh with Miss Ruby Ricks as advisor, Max Taylor as president, Barbara Sperry, vice president and Nora Anderson as secretary. Max Taylor is now attending school in California. Miss Ricks married one of our local swains and has taken up the art of living in Idaho Falls. The others are still members of the R. H. S. Among the honor students that year were five from the Freshman class: Wilma Olsen, Margaret Burt, Louise Morris, Lucille Cummings, and De- Ella Farmer. As Sophomores, this class gave the Freshmen of I938 their initiation. As we remember it, the Frosh wore little dresses and everything to make them look cute. The Sophomore year was topped off by the Sophomore Hop. The class officers last year were: Ralph Martin, presidentg Leone Cordon, vice presidentg and Gale Peterson, secretaryg with Mr. Cowley as advisor. As Juniors, they are living up to the best of standards. On October 27, 1939, they presented a car- nival dance at which Ella Lindsay, a Junior, was chosen queen. This year, with Jack Taylor as president, Fred Holbrook as vice president, and Nina Miles as secretary, they sponsored the annual junior Prom on March 29, at Riverside Gardens. The theme was The Land of Oz. This was one of the cele- brated triumphs of the class that is now Juniors of the Rigby High School. -NINA Mxuas -JACK TAYLOR lvsnnsnsnsvsqusnsus rsusarsnvsuvsnsnssnnxnosnsvxnnsnxusnnsnoxuvsnsnsuvsuvsussavsansaosnsnosqosa IIGIY HIGH SCHOOL -
