Roundup High School - Rodeo Yearbook (Roundup, MT)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1925 volume:

Foreword THE staff of 1925 Rodeo takes great pleasure in presenting to the student body of the Roundup High School, this, our first annual. The past year has been a big one for the high school in many ways, and we are all proud of the advance- ment our school has made. A spirit of aggressiveness has prompted us to bring into existence this annual, “The Rodeo.” The staff has earnestly striven to make this first edition of the Rodeo an example for future classes; to make it the best possi- ble record of the past year’s events; and in presenting it to the student body we have but one hope—that it may fulfill all the requirements for a good annual. We wish to thank the merchants of the town, the student body, the teachers, and other patrons of our school for the help and cooperation we have received. They have been behind us in this undertaking and it is only through their interest that we have been able to make this, our first Year Book, a success. And so it is with great pleasure that the staff presents this 1925 Rodeo to the Student Body of the Roundup High School. —The Editor.

We never have worried about wrinkles and age— We, the heroes of the western sage. Such a difference as there is between The Juniors and Seniors, you’ve never seen, We are so youthful and you are so caged— We heroes of the western sage. Seniors enjoy yourselves while you’re here, For time goes faster with every year. Even the Juniors are getting a whiff Of Father Time that upsets the skiff. “A Comedy of Errors,” the Freshmen class, But we were Freshies once, alas! And just as dumb as you they say, Wearing our green on Loud Socks Day. “As you like it” is a fitting “rep” For the Sophomore class and their baby pep; No one knows what they have endured But the jolly Juniors, so recently cured. “Much Ado About Nothing” is the Junior’s handle, And really it isn’t such a terrible scandal; They have caught a glimpse of that thing called “Success”: Three cheers for products of R. H. S. “All’s Well That Ends Well,” our Seniors declare; Put on a brave smile as if glad they were there. ’26 will be hailed with reluctance, I’ll wage, By all the heroes of the western sage. —Zelma Halley.

Forward the Junior Class, Was there one who failed? Not tho’ the pupil knew it, He seemed to have blundered. His not to make reply, His not to reason why, His but to take it and grin While all the teachers tormented him. Teachers to right of him, Teachers to left of him, Teachers in front of him, Raged and stormed. Threatened the student with red ink and pen, But all of this was beyond his ken. For bravely he toiled and strived And on in the classes of Roundup High, Strode the original forty and five. Now in the classes of Roundup High The Junior is one that is never passed by, We beat the Seniors in basketball And now the pennant is ours on the wall, We went after the Frosh and hazed him well, Now they all know we’re alive; So on in the classes of Roundup High Strides the Original forty-five.

A dust springs up in the west; It races before the blast. The eastern breeze is now at rest; The clouds roll thick and fast. A mist o’erwhelms the dust, Tubs rattle close by, then, crash! Thunder sputters, wind sweeps by in a gust, Lightning flashes its wicked lash. And the rain in torrents falls, Tall cottonwoods lean and groan; The howling wind in agony calls; Swishing waters, leap and foam. As they find their path down the hills, The unseen clouds continue to rumble, And pour down their moisture in pills; But I hate that deafening rumble. And dread each flash of the red, That spouts in kinkering twists; Striking the paths I trod. Ah! now the wind has ceased its lisps. And scattered rain falls thin; No thunder roars, no lightning flashes; Instead I see a rainbow twin, In proof of an acient promise, lashed. Securely to the Rock of Ages. The meadow larks sing sweeter, Nature seems fresher in all her stages, And craggy hills look a little neater. A pleasant breeze comes o’er the hay-land The sinking sun shines bright. And the dim moon takes its stand, As the hoot-owl hoo’s—Come Night! Page Thirty-two RODEO The Senior Play The Senior Play was staged April 17 and was a great suc- cess. The following people were in the cast: Michael Rudder.... Edward Andrews.... Frank Raymond..... John Raymond...... Stiles............ Francis Raymond... Mrs. Widdimore.... Miss Janet Raymond Ellen............. Harold Tannehill ....Albert Tressl ....Roy Davidson .......Bob Blose ....Foy Sturdevant ...Kathryn Weir ...Helene Stocker .....Norma Kyle ...Mae Meagher High School Play The high school play for this year was a comedy in three acts, entitled “Honor Bright,” written by Meredith and Kenyon Nicholson. It was staged at the American Theatre on March 13. The cast was as follows: Richard Barrington................Donald Reid Mrs. Lucy Barrington, his mother....Jessie Halley Rev. William Carton..........Harold Tannehill Peggy Carton, his wife.............Kathryn Weir Honor Bright, a book agent.................Ruth Cameron Tot Marvel, a chorus girl................Helene Stocker Bill Drum, press agent............William Orr Rev. James Schooley.....................Michael Welsh Watts, the butler........................Ernest Buteux Annie, the maid.........................Lillian Arthurs Maggie, the cook............................Mae Meagher Simpson, the sheriff........................Roy Davidson Jones, another sheriff.....................Fred Quinnell Play Coach..........Beatrice Gale Business Manager....Fred Quinnell Property Manager......Jack Chapin Declamatory A much greater interest was shown this year in declamatory work than last year. This year, the boys also have taken an interest in the opportunities offered by this work. Ten girls and five boys have given all their spare time to this train- ing and will compete in a preliminary contest to be held in the High School auditorium, March 20, and the winners there will compete again in a final contest at the same place on April 24, 1925. The winner in the final contest receives a trip to Missoula and a chance to compete for State Championship, which any student is al- ways glad to present to his school.

Beadle, T. Cameron, F. Sturdevant, R. Davidson, A. Helgerson, M. Goen M. Meagher, H. Tannehill, T. Douglass, K. Weir High School Minstrel A trip to dear old Alabam Is very nice indeed, Especially when you take a book And of those darkies read. Just to hear about those love songs, Makes you wish that you were there, But its a long, long way to travel Just to hear some old-time air. And you'll think so more than ever, When I tell you they were here. To visit Roundup High School, And distribute their cheer. They brought with them their instruments, Their big feet and their jokes, And some of them did not forget, Their stiff-front dinner cloaks. Their tales of woe filled all the room With shouts of laughter gay, And everyone regretted, To see them leave that day. To assist them in between acts, Some beautiful nymphs at play, Danced lightly o’er the stage, And smoothly glided away. Also a darktown chorus Of thirty-five or more Sang the latest melodies Ever published at any store. It certainly was amazing, To see those old-time jigs Danced better than our grandfather did By darkies in bright colored rigs. In the last play the darkies’ moral, Was very clearly shown, “Love thy neighbor as thyself,” If he keeps chickens at his home. —Harriet Moe Howard. 1925 — RH S Page Thirty-seven Literary Societies Some of the best programs ever presented at the Roundup High School were given this year, and their success is due largely to the organization of Literary Societies. Each class has a society of its own, having a president, vice- president, committee chairman, and program committee. These people work out the plan of the program, and the other students present it. The Freshmen chose Judith Belden as their president, the Sopho- mores, Ruth Cameron, the Juniors, Gladys Crothers, and the Seniors, Harold Tannehill. A prize is to be awarded at the end of the year to the class giving the best program, thus creating a great deal of competition and also enthusiasm. The programs have been so nearly equal in quality and quantity, that it will be very difficult for the judges to determine the best one. Page Thirty-eight RODEO Musical Revues September 26—As the Calendar Says. The Seniors are “stung” for the first program. We are quite re- lieved as we thought the assembly was the victim. The “Chocolate Drop Quartette” in burnt-cork and darktown costumes rendered several selections from “Misery II Travatore” namely, “Turkey in the Straw,” “Hear Dem Bells,” and “Darktown Strutter’s Ball.” As an encore they sang the story of “Evelina” which was well received (and sent back). The membership of this quartette has been kept a secret until now when the mystery is disclosed in the annual. The black-face comedians were Mae Meagher, Josephine Lipke, Margaret Haylock and Helene Stocker. October 10. Behold! The Juniors burst forth in song and story. A pageant, the “Bachelor’s Dream” was very interesting and well done. Henry Nigherbon is altogether too “elite” to be a bachelor and we are all glad “ ’twas only a dream.” The “Junior Paper” took the cast-iron featherbed. It far sur- passed “Jim Jam Jems” and completely ran “Whiz Bang” out of business December 19—Xmas Program. The Seniors and Juniors buried the hatchet and united their ef- forts in an excellent Christmas entertainment. A large choir beauti- fully sang a number of Yuletide hymns. Miss Gale gave a fine read- ing in little girl’s costume, and Mike Welsh, Bill Orr, and “Fat” Ken- nedy gave short selections in the famous sing-song-way. They also were in little boy’s costumes. The Junior (Brutes!) had the best tree and were richly rewarded with a “sucker” apiece. The afternoon ended with the distribution of ten-cent presents. February 20. The Frosh are not as green as they are painted—in fact they are strong for red, white and blue. In commemoration of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, the Freshmen gave an excellent and the most novel entertainment of the year under the direction of Mrs. Hulstone. Colonial girls danced a graceful minuet; a choir of girls in white sang patriotic songs; and Eldon Thompson and Roy Beadle took the assembly by storm with “Clementine.” As a conclusion, all the classes have given programs and no class has yet been awarded the “banner.” 1925 — R H 5 Page Forty +---------- RODEO -----{. Football, 1925 THE season started out well. We Mere disappointed in not hav- ing Kenneth (Unc) Thompson, our star full-back, James (Fat) Kennedy, center, and Keith Lowell, half-back, for this year’s football. But the boys got out of the rut admirably well, even if they were a green bunch of players. Our first game was a great success. We met Custer High at Miles City and although we went down to de- feat the boys all showed extraordinary football ability. The Custer High team afterwards took second place for state championship. The second game of the season was played at Winnett. Although the boys again were beaten by the same score as the first game they did it like real football players. The third game of the season was at Roundup with Billings. It was a howling success and went down in the annals of the High School never to be forgotten. The night before the game we were visited with a heavy rain and which culminated in about six inches of snow. Again the boys fought bravely and against adverse conditions. 1925 ------H S Page Forty-one R. H. S. FOOTBALL TEAM Alexander, Woods, Cameron, Stanton, Douglass, F. Sturdevant, Welsh, Buteux L. Sturdevant, Polich, Hubatka, Orr, Davidson, Tressl, Helgerson After the first half the coach had to have an introduction to each player in order to identify him from the proverbial colossus of clay. The next Saturday we fought to a close one of the hardest games of the season with Winnett. The score ended in 13 to 12 in favor of the visiting team. The next game played by the Hig School grid team was with Klein, and at the end of the hour the boys had run up a score of 51 to 0. Coach Alexander’s constant training rules had begun to bear fruit. One week after the victory over Klein the High School team met Harlowton there. This was undoubtedly the best game of the sea- son that was played away from home. On a muddy field and against a heavier team we scored the first touchdown in the first quarter. In the second quarter the opponents scored twice, making the total 12 to 7 in their favor. In the second half our team went back with the determination to win. After tightening up our line and steadily pushing the opponents back, the whistle blew with about four yards to go and a victory still to be won. November 11 witnessed a game never equalled on home soil and between home teams. The Alumni had a very fast and heavy team versus our training and signal practice. We added another victory to the long list by a score of 14 to 7. Page Forty-two RODEO November 27 and Thanksgiving day was witnessed by a most ex- traordinary game of football. This time we played Klein High and her ineligible men that were supposed to be good football players. Again a victory was added making the list a little longer by a score of 34 to 0. Thus ended the football season for 1924. This season was prob- ably the most successful in the High School’s History—the opponents scoring 84 against us and our team 118. We have great hopes for the team next year because there is going to be a good number of let- ter men back and a large bunch of promising Freshmen. Lineup.

The home quint won the game with Harlowton boys by a score of 18 to 5 which proved them greatly superior to the opposing team. The second day of the tournament our boys went onto the court with enthusiasm and won a decisive victory over Denton. The morning of the third day they played our local rivals for the semi-finals, Klein. After four quarters of very fast basketball the score was 19 to 15 in our favor. This victory put them in line for the finals against a very fast team from Moore. That evening enthusiasm was running high in the basketball fans. They turned out to see a good basketball game and their expectations were more than fulfilled. At the end of the first half our boys had a lead of 6 to 2. They maintained this lead until the third quarter in which they lost gradu- ally their lead until the last 10 seconds of the game when they had a lead of one point. A foul was called on one of our men and Moore won the championship by one point making both her tries. The final score was 13 to 12 in Moore’s favor. ■+ 1925 — R H S Page Forty-five Basketball Lineup.

They elected Kathryn Weir, captain, and Mis3 Jane Talle, as acting coach, had an abundance of good material to pick from. The series of girls’ games that was scheduled amounted to ten, and they were defeated only in the last game when they played for the State Championship with a fast team from Judith Gap on a neu- tral floor at Harlowton, March 6. They lost the game by 3 points, the score being 18 to 15. This was the only game they lost this sea- son, and also the first year that R. H. S. has had a girls’ basketball team at all. If they can come within three points of winning the State Championship the first year of basketball, they will win it the next. The total score made against our hoopsters this season was 92, while 188 was scored against the opposers. Fifteen loud Rahs for the team! Lineup.

Aines stood by the big hall door, Lucille, waiting as ne’er before. As a feather is waft’ downward in its flight, The pair moved farther from the light. And Ernie detected a deep drawn sigh As from the party he sauntered by. Suspicious, he moved near. Whispered Aines, “Have naught to fear But ’tis better that after the tenth ( ) we part, As this air affects my heart.” Small Ernie knows what ’tis all about, And says to himself, “Aines, look out!” Back to the revelry, bright and gay, Ernie hastens to have his say. Up to Miss Goen he joyfully goes, Repeats the tale in her eager ear; And she gleefully tells it there and here. Thus ’til the morrow the story grows. (We wonder just what Ernie knows.) Morning, and at the “House of Learning,” Mournfully sits poor Aines still yearning. Lucille thinks, “What a fool I’ve been!” Aines—“Will she ever look at me again?” Alas! The devil has done his work, Though ignorance is bliss, For one sweet kiss, The week is dark and murk. (Curtain) —By H.

The team took second place at a track meet held at Harlowton consisting of 10 teams from Harlowton and vicinity. Dick Staunton was high point man in this meet, having taken three first places. Dick Staunton took first in the 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash and the 440-yard dash. Foy Sturdevant took second and third in the mile and half-mile respectively. Tommy Douglas took second in the broad jump. Cuthbert Green took second in the pole vault.

On the evening of May 2, 1924, the Juniors royally entertained the Seniors of ’24 at a super-excellent “Prom” at the gymnasium of the High School. The gym was profusely decorated with pink tissue papei apple blossoms and green, which represented a siege of hard labor on the part of the Juniors. The lights were hung with pink crepe streamers and the guests viewed life in rose-colored lights. A white trellis en- twined with apple blossoms separated the spectators from the dan- cers. On the floor, another flowered trellis separated the orchestra from the dancers. Ralph Evans and Fred Oldham furnished excellent music for the Prom. Punch and wafers were served and the Seniors voted it the “best Junior Prom ever.” September 19—Extra! Extra!! Frosh on Duty Initiated!!! The morning of September 19th dawned a bright and rosy day. The timid little frosh came to school elegantly bedecked in their na- tional emblem—“Green!” Many amusing specters paraded the halls that day. At four o’clock, the assembly proceeded with the culprits to the fair grounds where a snappy initiation took place. After being ar- tistically emblazoned with iodine and gagged with castor oil, the Frosh participated in the various games and were made the “goats” in general. After a cold but welcome picnic lunch in cafeteria style, guards and prisoners returned to their “old nests” feeling that the day had been a memorable one. Page Fifty-two RODEO October 10. After the football game with Billings, the Athletic Association entertained the visiting team in the gym. A huge crowd was pres- ent, several “crushes” were made, and all voted the evening a “night of nights.” Although it was a little muddy, the moon was “doing his stuff.” December 18. The Seniors and Juniors gave a sociable farewell party to close the days of “toil and tears” until after the Christmas vacation. Ev- eryone had a wonderful time. January 10—The Freshmen Learn to Dance! We are going to have regular “Rudys” in this class in a few more parties. Just wait until the next one. The most interesting feature of the Frosh social activities is the fact that they serve ice cream! February 6. Again we entertain the Billings athletes. This time they opposed us in basketball. The party was a fine one and Lucille had a date with Aines. We may also add that Ernie Smith “tells not tales out of school.” February 23. The boys’ and girls’ basketball teams were entertained upon this evening in the gym which was artistically decorated in the school colors, crimson and white. This party was to especially honor the boys who had just returned from winning second place in the district tournament at Lewistown. The programs were basket balls made of brown paper. Sandwiches, cookies and cocoa were served and dancing was indulged in until a late hour. March 6—The Frosh Feel the Call of the Wild! In the spring a young man’s fancy turns to dancing, and we hereby sincerely give the frosh a boquet for their remarkable progress in “tripping on the light fanatics’ toe.” Now you think we are kidding don’t you? As we are about to bid farewell to this realm, we’ll fool you and come down from our perch for a few brief moments. 4 Frosh’' Proclamation LISTEN UNTO THIS!!! Ye agnosticated, crusticated, ludicrous, unscrupulous, irresponsible, ticontuscru- tumbulated, conglobberated, pinheaded freaks of humanity. Cease to gravitate and pipe our esoteric cogitations. Wipe the frost off your eye- lashes and permit some of this profound proclamation to ooze into your vaccua caputa. If ye be top-heavy let this deep bit of script readjust your ballast and regain your equilibrium. Hear Ye, you insignificant, infinistisimal quantities of phantasmagorieal protoplasm. That we, the Seniors, do hereby promulgate, propound, or place before you, rules and regulations governing your wearing apparel and conduct on the third Friday of September, being September 19th. Tradition that dates back to the time when Gunga Govin Sing got his feet wet wading across the muddy depths of the Musselshell to conquer the kingdoms of Bengal, Bahar and Orissa; tradition as old as that estab- lished High School Picnic Day. Therefore, the Seniors must necessarily uphold this famous tradition. Consequently we said Seniors, at the sesquipedalian conference, decided upon a definite program, and we find that according to tradition the Frosh must get the dirty end of the stick. So list unto this proclamation carefully least ye break our rules and we be forced to wreak our vengeance upon you. Hark ye—dirty-faced, ignorant little simpletons. Put away your lolypops, dig the dirt out of your ears and heed this message from the wise. We, the Seniors, take this day to initiate you, and woe to the Frosh shrimp that breaks any rules laid down by us. For we shall beat, bruise, cut, freeze, pinch, slice, snap, burn, kick, hang, drown, bury alive, flog, skiD, twist, mangle, grind, whip, stretch, electrocute, shoot, stab, hammer, crucify, clip, or mutilate your worthless carcass beyond all possible recognition in any way we so desire. So let this soak through your spongy dome, and obey, unless you are fond of that lucious extract of the castor bean. On Friday, September 19th, in the good year of Our Lord 1924, from 1:30 p. m. to 12:00 p. m. the Frosh will be under the absolute rule of the relentless Senior Class. Every Frosh boy must cover the top of his soggy belfry with a lid, made wholly from green paper or cloth, which must not be removed between the hours before- mentioned, unless he wishes to be ducked until the rising bubbles look like a Chi- nese volcano. Page Fifty-fou RODE He must also wear short pants. If he neglects to do this, doleful consequences will follow. He will be forced to walk on red hot plow shares till the steam, gushing forth from his mouth, makes Old Faithful reek with envy. The space between the top of his socks and the bottom of his pants must be left exposed, as socks will be decidedly out of order. His forest primeval must be parted in the middle and left hanging down in front just enough on each side so there will be no interference with the use of his lamps. Should he fail to appear arrayed other than has just been expounded, his fate will be as certain as Sitting Bull’s, when Tim McCaully led his army over the Alps on the fatal night of August the 33rd, 1929, when Washington stealthy crossed the Dela- ware and was discovered when his Jew Packard stalled on the Gage bridge. The girls must braid their hair in at least ten different piggie-wigglies and tie each with some shade ot green that harmonizes well with the pinnacle which they adorn. The use of all cosmetics must absolutely be abolished on this day. Any Frosh girl caught toddling to school behind a coat of powder, lip-stick or rouge, will have same removed from her map in the most horrid manner. After this artifiical beauty has been removed, we will restore said mutilated face to its natural beauty, if such a thing exists in the Freshman class, with soothing creams of our own com- position. consisting of: Eithiopian Tar......................................1 pound Black Auto Enamel.....................................y2 pint Mongolian Buttermilk......................................iy2 pints Glue (Fog Busters)................................. 3 tubes Nitroglycerine......................................1 ounce Sulphuric Acid..................................8 liquid feet And a priming coat of light oak varnish. Same violators shall then be submerged up to their ankles in an inverted order in a barrel of H2 O. Hear Ye!!! Ye amphibian-geared reptiles of the shrill sex. Short dresses must be worn on this day. The standard length set by us is knee level. Take care not to break these rules as the most gruelling punishment will be inflicted. Hot pokers will be jabbed in your little watery eyes. Your huge African lips will be hydraulically pressed into normal size. Your snaggy milk teeth will be jerked from their feeble moorings and publicly displayed in the Swastika Cigar Store. HEAR YE, NOW, ALL YE, addle-patted, knocked-kneed, double-jointed, cross-eyed, bow-legged, hump-backed pronosticated, bleary-eyed infants! If for any voluptuous, uncanny reason, accidental, intentionally or otherwise, you should chance to break our rules, we will make your living conditions on that day miserable and impossible. An end to your misdemeanors will be as sudden as was the death of Fitzgerald, who rode across the Rubaiyat to see his Omar of Khayyam and the barnacles that fell from her gorgeous eyelashes, crushed his Adam’s Crab- apple down in his boot top. For further abuse your hair will be shaved from head, and face marred with a battering ram. Your shins will be bastinaded till they resemble the shanks of a rising crane. Food vacuoles will be ostracized and tongue wiil be pulled out far enough to permit the tying of a hangman’s knot. Then as a final knell, you will be strung up by the lower projecting rim of your left ear, while Kenneth Thompson pays that “Naughty Waltz” on your lower right-hand, missing rib. Thus all students are asked to enter whole-heartedly into the occasion and make this the most successful of the successfullest of successful High School Picnics. FRED QUINNELL JAMES KENNEDY KENNETH THOMPSON BOB BLOSE HERBERT LEES ERWTN FAWCETT HAROLD TANNEHILL JACK CHAPIN Ducking Committee Page Fifty-five 1925 — R H S Rodeo Calendar September 1—Are the students disappointed? Why? maybe not! they are looking at the teachers. Let’s Hope. Looks like the starting of a good year, but the runts, the runts, did you ever see the like of them in the Freshman class? I believe some of them might be offspring of feathered chickens or how could there be so many of them? We were inaugurated this morning—a beautiful fall morning— and were told by our DON how glad he was to see us. As usual the Green imps got mixed in their classes, but for all the mistakes things gaged along fairly well. September 3—Freshmen not bridle wise yet. September 8—Ha! Ha! ’tis now the villain’s chance. Ignorant Frosh you will undergo a complete overhauling September 19. September 19—Those Indians (the Frosh) drunk on castor oil and painted with iodine, and their scalp lock showing. September 22—Some of the Frosh still look as if they have had a hard two days if it. It seems to have agreed with most of them. September 26—Seniors are soaked for the first program. September 27—Football game at Miles City. No one hurt. October 4—Football game with Winnett. October 12—Girls! Girls! Shine your shoes, paint your lips, rouge your face, put on your best. Billings is playing here. Look pretty, darn you! Treat the boys nice at the party. October 20—“One of those unsophisticated Junior programs,” say the Seniors, but I see they take it all in. October 25—They were not fighting but it took the two classes until today to give a good party. November 1—Klein secures a romping good flogging. All to- gether now. November 5—James Kennedy has already lost 20 pounds of super- fluous flesh. (Good work, James!) James Johnston still believes he can captivate most any girl’s heart. November 8—Harlowton—Football. We live 011 hope! November 11—The vulgar alumni thought they could beat our all-nation grid squad. November 27—It’s no use to go ahead and tell how the Klein vs. Roundup game came out, but as usual Klein was out. November 28—Thompson, Jr., claims he is becoming more active with the cold weather and we always have to escort Mike home and pick him up when he blows over. (Don’t get us wrong, Mike is not fat). November 30—All freshmen reported to the office. December 4—“The Minstrel” drew a full’house. All coons made up in the dark. Everyone looked as if they didn’t begrudge their quarter after it was over. Pace Fifty-six RODEO ------ December 11—Rah, Rah, Rah, Roundup! Rah, Rah, Rah, Mussel- shell! Basketball is all right sometimes, isn’t it, Musselshell? December 18—Who said the Sophs couldn’c give a good program? December 19—Of course the Junior tree won the prize. Every Junior got an all-day sucker. Everyone enjoyed the program be- cause they knew it would be the last one for two weeks. January 2—Our boys played Billings there but were good losers. January 9—Winnett vs. Roundup. January 10—Freshmen demonstrated their ability to entertain. January 11—James Kennedy gained his 20 pounds again. Too much Christmas candy, Jimmie. January 16—Musselshell, there, much fight, party and good time all. January 23—Klein again meet their Waterloo. January 25-26—Exams. Everybody works but the teachers. They put the guess before us. January 29—No, not basketball this time, but four one-act plays by the public speaking classes. In a year or two Hollywood will have quite a few new stars. January 30—Winnett, there. Oil doesn’t make any better bas- ketball players than coal. January 31—Grass Range, there. Who kept Tommy Douglas and Aines Helgerson warm this time? February 1—Only 28 days this time, February. February 4—Sumatra, here. We’re from a little town but we’re tough. February 12—Lewistown, there. We’re from a little town but we’re tough. February 13—Beat Harlow there. Third game in nine days and Friday, the 13th. Superstitious? Oh, no! February 17—Everyone that bet on the game with Klein got to keep their money because neither of the teams could make another basket. Good work, team. February 19 to 21—Second place at Lewistown. Geraldine, we want a basket. February 20—No, the Freshmen class isn’t the only patriotic one in school but the Freshmen gave the program. Elden got an encore anyway when he sang Clementine. February 23—Teams, you’ve done your stuff so we’ll do ours now. We’ll give a party and everybody come! March 3—Who’ll make the best football and basketball captains? Aines Helgerson for basketball and Tommy Douglas, football. March 6—Salty tears shed at Harlowton when Roundup girls were defeated by Judith Gap for the state championship. March 13—High school play. Donald Reid makes his debut. April 17—Senior play. Page Fifty-eight RODEO p Little Miss I MoTTaT Editor-iu-Chief. AGwiryl ws A Scholar! Scotty Comma thru the rv Excelsior. J ' Vamps of '65 Dajsies.

It is not perfect, but the staff have done their best to present an accurate account of the events of this year. We are proud of this book even if some of the pokes are hack- neyed or persona], the sports lacking, the calendar incomplete, or the editors feeble-minded. We hope that the reader will excuse all the errors we have unthinkingly committed, and will see a few bright points shinging through the general tone of this book. We hope that you will preserve this annual and when you are tired and worn-out, turn over the pa ?es of it and transport yourself back to the days when you went to “the good old R. H. S.” Keep this book and during the dull, dark days when all hope seems gone, go reminiscently through it and remember the past—your joys and sorrows and how everything came out all right. Much credit is due the Rodeo staff who have spent much time and experienced no little trouble in making this annual possible. Par- ticular gratitude is due the merchants of the town who have made this a paying proposition, and to the teachers and well-wishers who have helped us over the rutty road. Again I want to thank the staff and student body for their help and fine cooperation in publishing this first edition of the Rodeo. —The Editor.
