Until scientists check- ed up on his stories, it was known as Colter's Hell.1 One of the most thrilling experiences thac John Colter ever had was when given a chance to out-run the Blackfeet Braves for his life. This he did, and managed to make his way back to Fort Manuel Lisa without any weapons, food, or even clothes. That “Grand Old Man of the Rockies was none other than James Bridger A3 a trapper, trader, guide, and scout, he was an authority on geographical routes and mountain fauna. His mind was full of imaginative stories and he had an abil- ity to relate the curious things he had seen. And so it hap- pened that in his later years, these yarns of the frontier were known as Jim Bridger's lies. he is considered the Daniel Bocne of Montana and was the true type of Mountain Man. Lieutenant Mullan, another pioneer, found an easy pass for the railroad. It determined the location of many of the pioneer settlements that later grew into some of Montana's finest cities, h© v as truly a great pioneer and pathfinder. Haven't you often wondered who suggested the name-- Montana? It was the “lather of Montana Territory, Mr. Janes Ashley, who introduced the bill in the Senate. Because of its Mountains, it was called Montana, the Land of the Shining Mountains. Goldl RushtI A better road was in demand. John H. Bozeman, a scout and pathfinder, discovered the Bozeman Pass. Due to the Indian trouble the road was closed in 1886 in an effort to appoase them. In spite cf all this, the Blackfeet Indians went on the warpath, raiding the little town cf Boze- man, killing settlers, stealing horses, capturing children, sind burning their homes. One of their victims was ohn Boze- man himself. Without Colter, Bozeman, Ashley, Mullan and Jim Bridger the history of our state would indeed oo lacking in its stir- ring adventure and romance.

It certainly thrills me to see this intelligent group of seniors. Ihoy have come a long way since their mothers brought them to school, answered Miss Uym Carlson when asked what she thought of this class, which she had taught in its first year at school. Of the forty-six seniors graduating this year, only thirteen of the original group, which was first formed in September, 1S29, remain. They are Louie Daer, Forrest Dobbins, Bill Mitchell, Elaine Anderson, Virginia Carver, Helen Kern Matilda liaris, Alice Wall, Dorothea Woods, Lorraine Charlton, Jessie Jones, Sylvia Ravnikar, and Florence Basinger (according to George Raths, who investigated the matter). Qhis class has always been a small one and has the distinction of never having in the last four years the highest number of members. But even though this class is a midget, it is composed of many students who have taken part in all school activi- ties since they were freshmen. For three years Jim Wier has been on the Cabinet, besides being a champion athlete. Jim was class president for the first two years, and was then displaced by George Raths, who has also held the post for two years. On two occasions members of this class have placed in journalistic contests—when Matilda Maris won recognition in the annual Bankers Essay Contest and when Charles Popovich, Bill Mitchell, and Donald Beckman received awards in a contest sponsored by the Spanish American War Auxiliary. Blimp Gruden is a 4-letter football man, and many of this class have three, two, or one athletic letters to their credit. George Raths also reports that during its high school career, this class has had the highest number of exemptions with the exception of last year, Y hen it ranked second. Considering the size of this class, such a record is one of which to be proud. As is customary in high school, the enrollment of this class has steadily de- clined from sixty-nine to fifty-eight to fifty-one to forty-six. Why have these students dropped? Bie largest single reason, believe it or not, is that they wanted to get married. Eleven of the girls who have been members of this class during the past four years are married. Some of the boys can be found in the CCC, while others are employed in Roundup. Still others have moved away. Despite the loss of these members, the class has alvrays been active, and the Class of '41 vYill be sincerely missed by the faculty, and the other classos--a genuine compliment to this class.

Did you ever wonder why Montana is called the Treasure State ? From the time way back when Benetsee Francois Findaly, a French-Canadian half-breed, discovered gold on Benetsee Creek, up to the discovery of the Last Chance Gulch near Hele- na, all the law-breakers, convicts, and deserters who left home, poured into the golden frontier of Montana in search of wealth or, sometimes, for adventure only. The Stuart brothers, as they returned from the California gold rush to their homes in Iowa, prospected a little on Bene- tsee Creek, and found what they considered a good find; but, because they lacked equipment and because the Indians stole their horses and everything else, they left, returning in 1860 to develop the first real mining camp in Montana. A journal which reported this, also stated that gold could be shaken from the roots of the sagebrush at the Beaverhead Mines where the Grasshopper Creek meets the Beaverhead River. Good news travels fast, and in 1863, a gold-rush almost equal to that of the forty-niners poured into Montana to shake up the sage- brush, Henry Edgar and William Fairweather discovered Alder Gulch, at the head of the Jefferson River, as the result of Old Bill's search for a little tobacco money. They rushed back to town to get tools and upon their return found half the town following at their heels. Other rich discoveries were Last Chance Gulch (later Hele- na), Cooke City, Confederate Gulch, Silver Bow, and Emigrant Gulch. The gold production in Montana from 1862 to 1896 amounted to $144,400,000, and up to 1930 the sum had doubled; even now it increases daily.

As he entered a lonely stretch of road, the driver caught sight of four masked horsemen in tho road. Halt! Throw up your handsl All hands went up. Get down, all of you. The passengers clambered out of tho stage and lined up with their hands above their heads. Ono of the bandits wont through the mail sacks, tho baggage, and men's pockets searching for gold and valuable articles. Such incidents were ccmmon along the road between Bannad: and Virginia City, Montana, in 1870. Honest people were getting tired of such lawlessness and determined to do something about it. An unimportant incident started the action. A man shot a sage hen, which fell in a clump of sage brush. Vfnen he went to get it, he found a dead man. The neighbor, whom he asked to help load the body into his wagon, refused to have anything to do with the whole matter. His refusal immediately placed him under suspicion. That night a group of honest men swore to band together for revenge and to punish the guilty people. They questioned the suspected man and only after they threatened to blow his brains out did he confess he was a member of Plummer's gang, bmt another member had committed the murdor. Tho murderer was arrested and given a fair trial. Everyone expected that he would be rescued by his gang. The trial was tense. It is said that when the prosecuting attorney stood up to ask for a death penalty the cocking of guns could be clearly heard, This marked the turning point in the power of the outlaws. This same group of men took the vigilante oath and became the first vigil- ante committee in Montana. The organization spread to all the mining oamps in the region and proceeded to wipe out lawlessness. They captured a member of Plummer's gang who confessed his own guilt and named all the rost of the members of tho gang. Tho vigilantes now moved quickly. They wanted to round up all tho gang before anyone could escape. A posso wont to Bannack whore Henry Plummor, tho chiof of tho gang, was sheriff. Ho and his pals tried to oscapo but woro captured. As he was led out to be hanged, he turned yellow, begging that his tongue be cut out, and his ears cut off, but that his life be spared. His com- rades, however, took their medicine like men. With their leader dead, the gang broke up and the members fled, but they were pursued by the vigilantes. Thirty-two men 'were hanged and a great many were banished from the territory. The length of time that the Plummer gong was in power was short, but its effect on Montana history was great. There was no groat use for the vigilante committee after the smashing of Plummer’s gang. In a few years Montana become a territory. The federal government could now maintain order, so the committee was entirely disbanded. In the opinion of the American pioneer, law and order had to be upheld. If the government would not do it, he would do it himself. It is through such people as those vigilan- tes that America has become a groat nation, and Montana a great state.

It v;as located about two miles west of town and was started in 1332 by an old trapper and buffalo hunter named Janes McMillan. It is thought that his wife was the first white woman to live in this part of the country. This town consisted of a few log buildings, a store, saloon, post office, blacksmith shop, e. dance hall, and a small school house, for thirty years it was the gathering place for the nearby ranchers. Each year they held their roundup on the flat where the present city is now located. This fact accounts for the town's name. The present city of Roundup was born in the fall of 1907 when the first coal mine v;as opened. Tne railroad had not reached this far, but it v as expected by spring. At this time there was just a group of tar-paper shades and tents. The name Roundup was taken from the older settlement. The first school in this town ooened in 1903 with Mins Rridgie Holland (now Mrs. C. II. Rusch) as the teacher. The first newspaper Y as dated April 3, 1903. George Osborne v as the first postmaster. Because of its extra rapid growth, Roundup has been called The Miracle of the Musselshell. The discovery of oil in the Devil's Easin in November, 1919, ’yelp- ed to increase the size of the town. Roundup is now the larg- est city on the Milwaukee from Miles City to Butte, a distrnce of four hundred miles, and is, indeed, worthy of narae, Miracle of the Musselshell.

This same ques- tion was debated by high school and college students throughout the entire country and was chosen by a national committee. Trips taken by the squads are both inter- esting and educational. This taking of trips enables the teams to exchange valuable ideas and promotes friendship between the different schools A debate squad consists of two speakers, and this year two squads were entered in the district meet instead of the one entered in 1940.

At the first of the year, the Rodeo Club was more or less one big body, working on everything and anything; but as the students tended to excell HI in one certain field, the work was divided into groups headed by an editor who was to have charge over that particular section. The .oditors sent out their reporters to cover the news for their division, but it was the editors' job to properly put together the material thus gathered. Eie students, themselves, planned tie ontire Rodeo aftor they had determined the theme. Following much discussion, it was decided that the pioneer idea was suitable; it was then developed accordingly. The members of the commercial class cooperate d with the members of the club by setting up the type, cutting stencils, mimeoscoping, and printing the pages. Mrs. Hawks assisted in filling out the pages of pictures and in taking snapshots. On the 25th of March, the Rodeo Club started their publicity campaign for the sale of this yearfe annual. Doby and Rediske made special appeals to the students for their cooperation, and the various editors boosted their respective sections. Following these speeches, the student body sang school songs, accompanied by Ruth Byo and Gene Grudon. A Rodette, published by the Roundup Record Tribune, was then issued to the students, serving as an example of the coming aannual.

George Raths--senior--has gone out for track three years, placing only this year. George ran the mile for two years, but was unsuc- cessful, so he switched to the dashes. Since then he has taken first in four meets. George broke the 440-yard dash record in the district meet at Lewistown. ''Peter'1 represented R. H. S. in the State Meet at Missoula, placing third in the 440-yard dash. Gene Nblson—senior—has placed in track during his last three years of active participation.

And when in a distant city, Thus he always exhorts: Be careful cf what you oat, Nov watch out what you drink; Ovorindulgcncc spells defeat, No mattor what you think. Of all the coaches that wo'vc had Coach Marshall is the best. He stuck through years both good and bad, And backed our teams with zest. When Coach goes on a journey And takes the boys witn him. They'ro bound to win bho tourney. For their souls are full of vim. Now, students, attentive, 11 vo to Id you nry tal c Of Coach Marshall so active. So hearty and halo 1 --Ted Max The year started off with a bang when Freshmen were entertained by the Senior «lass, and the Juniors and Sophomores turned out in grand array to help the cause along. One of the main features of this hopper fas the unique program folders, which had, as their main feature, the dances named after our football heroes (?). The grand march was led by v the president of the Senior V class, George Raths, and Helen Kern. In the intermission the green-horns, sophomores, and upper classmen were enter- tained by Mary E. Joyce and Joy Reeder, doing a tap dance, accompanied by Ruth Dye. Troy Smith, one of the freshies, tickled the keyboard of his squeeze-box, thus pro- viding a rest for the regular musicians, the Red Jackets. So If good sense Is a sign of sanity, we pro- nounce the members of the junior class insane, (but pleasingly so, at that). Of course, we would naturally say that anyone who would want to haul hay, a corral, wagon wheel, horseshoes, sagebrush, and more hay into the gym just for one night, is definitely loco. But in this case we find it really pays to be teched, for the juniors certainly got a herd of cowboys and cowgirls out for their go western dance, and e must say that teachers and students alike all had a good time in their chaps, hats, and kerchiefs. In fact, everybody was having such a rip-roaring, hot-shootin' (cap guns) time that nobody paid any atten- tion when one side of the corral gave way 'neath the weight of some of the students. The prize awarded for the best dressed cowgirl went to Viola Kerzan,_ who was presented with a shotgun. Although there was a smaller group at this dance, those that were there can really tell you that they had a right smart strutting time ith the Sophomores. Matching popular song names was a special favor- ite at this jitter-joint. This was indeed a rare party, for there were present more boys than girls, and our dance-crazy gentlemen did insist on cutting up all evening. (Did you see any of 'she girls crying?) U) Got a nickel for a cup of coffee. Mister? — and here we are, right in the midst of the • Freshman Hobo Dance, held on Feb. 28 in the Jungle, known to out-of-towners as the Old Gym. Around the Hobo Cafe you are sure to find Marvin Kern and Sylvia Ravnikar, our two prize burns, begging for some ham- burger, cheese-burger or a bottle of--no, 'tis only pop 1 The gym was undocorated. by carting in a :aamp- fire and old coffee cans and 3tumps which, when turned over made excellent easy (?) chairs. Court was held by the judge and jurors several times during the evening and. the fines piled up for the freshman treasury. Fines were charged for such things as dancing too close to the girl, whispering, gazing at the moon (a paper one), being found with a bottle . iiilantadbbyoone fif the freshmen themselves on an unsuspecting upper-classman), not being dressed as a hobo or hoboette. If hoboette isn’t a word, we're coining it right now. Masculine murmurs — It ain't fair i G. What ain't? A. The Coed Dance. Fair or not, 'tis certainly a lot of fun, eh what, girls? Miss Williams and her Pep Club girls sponsored their annual all- girl, come-as-you-are dance March 21. Music was furnished by Ruth Dye Gene and Frank Gruden, Kenny McGibboney, and Benny Vicars. Of course’ there was a lunch and specialty dances, such as the hilarious, but fun’ broom dance.'' As it-was an Irish'1 danpe, there had to be a Blarney stone, and every- one present was compelled to kiss it, accord- ing to the custom. Yes, the males can well be jealous, for they certainly missed out on the fun i Anchors aweigh, my lads, anchors av eigh.' A date, a date 1 My kingdom for a date! For what girl would want to board the Good Ship R. H. S. without a sailor to guard her safely up the gangplanks, and onto the boat? Underneath the silver moon (and stars), the juniors, seniors, and their guests glided to a.nd fro to the music of Glen Johnson and his orCxiestra. Up the stairs and onto a higher deck, and what did you find but a refreshment room. , __ Purely invitational was the orom given by v the Class of '42 for the class of '41. EachV junior and senior was allowed to invite a partner. The seniors were entertained de- lightfully at tiioir last high school dance. On December 20, the Music Department pre- sented their contribution to the school’s Christmas spirit. The girls’ vocal classes, in their maroon and white vestments, were grouped attractively on the stage under a soft b-lue light. Their program consisted of the follow- ing pieces: Christmas Carol; Sleep, Holy Child; Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming; Lully, Lully, Lu; Good King Wenceslas; Coventry Carol; and Cru- saders Hymn, In closing, the assembly sang h v ' m carols accompanied by the band. Entertaining, indeed, was this program given in commemoration of the early comers and directed by Hiss Edwards. As a very appro- priate opening, the band played The Star Spangled Banner, and was followed by an attractive Indian girl, Helen kern, who addressed a poemr, Song To The Mountain, to the assembly. Next, a boys chorus sang a group of cowboy ballads. (Why have we not heard from than since?) The Kay Kayser skit that was given after the singing was really something! With Doby Dobbins as Kay himself, the students had quite a time trying to answer his pop up questions. Louis Daer recited the poem, I had But Fifty Cents, in fine form. Clem- entine and Out Where The West Begins were sung for closing. Members of the local American Legion presented ■'the eoleys, after which the national anthem was played by the band; the flag sa- lute was led by Clarence Petaja. The following students gave very fine readings: Kenneth Swan- Price of Poace ; Anne Lar— The Kill- ers ; and Frances Popovich-- Buttons. After hearing a medley of war songs by the band, we were addressed by Mr. Peterson, a member of the American Legion. Concotta Perrclla sang He� s My .Untie, which was followed by God Bless America by the assembly and bandd The Legion bugle corps played Taps, and the colors were retired. Tho Lincoln-Washlngton progran ms prosentod ’ £y ' .the Dramatics Class on February 19, 2941, America was played by tho band, followed by The Star Spangled Banner. Concetti Perrela sang a solo off stage during which there was a (({(i 'Vashington tableau by Joe Oset. While a Lincoln tableaus! was portrayed by George Raths, Clinton Cain delivered anj ' oration. Then the band played Tenting Tonight, and Kenneth Swan recited Abraham Lincoln Walks at Midnight. As Jack Holland held the pose of Uncle Sam, Frank Daer gave an oration, and Concetta Perrella sang. The school band played Columbia, as Regina Kenczka portrayed the orsonage. America, the Beautiful and -God- EBleaa .merica were sung by the assembly, led by the band. The first speaker of the year came from Woodbuin College in California. I guess I shall go to Woodbum College if I ever get out of here, was' the genera5 trend of thought and of the statements floating arounc the halls thereafter In March Dr. G. 7 . Shallenberger, Professor of Physics and Dean of the Summer School at the State University in Missoula, addressed the student body or .National defense and what schooling should mean. Judge Forrester talked on the subject of American- ism, impressing the students with his effective appeal and statement that ideals are worth upholding, the A- merican way of life worth preserving. Twenty-five cents entitles students to see six entertainments. Assemblies are held in the new gym, making it possible for students of the Central and Junior High Schools to attend also. The programs we re as followsr The Shadley Mystifiers, October 11, was the first of the series. Mr. King entertained us with new tricks--many with animals; they were gay, skillful deceptions and bewildering illusions that were both smart and mirthful. An air show. The Story of Flighty told by Captain McDarment, was especially interesting to the boys. This was an historic introduc- tion depicting man‘s conquest of the air and of his planes up to the present time and a forecast of the future. Captain Frank Grilley of the U. S. Navy brought November 29 Deep Sea Adventures. As the holder of the world's deep sea diving record for.200 years, he exhibited his diving suit, equipment and other inter- esting curios from the bottom of the sea. A few strokes of a crayon held by Briggs, the artist, brought us scenes of nature in her choicest moods, or cartoons at their funniest. On March 5, Briggs presented Art, Fun, and Philosophy. Fascinating and colorful music was presented by The Bentley Trio, March 26. Their Cathedral Organ Marimba zy!ophone with a six-octave range is the longest in the world. Miss Evelyn Bentley offered several dance special- ties in costume. 52� Grathwell, a G man listed in the 1940 edition of ho s Who in America, brought us first-hand information on how tho F. B. I. wars on crime. What invariably accompanies spring fever? Love and graduation, of course. At least, that is what happened in the comedy presented by the senior class of Roundup High School, March 3 and 4. This play portrayed the hustled, merry-go-round days which always preceed grad- uation. Every one knows that a college graduation wouldn't be much without a tiny bit of love, so this was accordingly supplied by sell three of the young gentlemen and their Hgirls,” and even went as far as to affec t the bug” prof and a maiden aunt. Both performances w£re completed in fine form, regardless of the fact that in the matinee a young lady became mixed up in her entrances and came from a boy's room. This has been pronounced one of the best plays in years.

Director, Miss Edwards. Suppose you were a hard-working and very honest young nan, with a mother-in-law, sis ter- in-lav;, and wife to support, all of whom thought you could really do much better if you tried hard enough. Then suppose that you were hit on the head with a suit- case, thrown from a speeding automobile, and found that the suit- case contained a fortune in money, but luter on found that you couldn't spend it or couldn't even find out to whom it belonged, ell, such was the predicament of Victor Johnson, the hero of the comedy presented by the Roundup High School students on November V and 8. However, this was only one of the things that happened to poor Victor, unwittingly involved in a series of amazingly com- plicated adventures. The money was later found to belong to a group of kidnappers. It was ransom money. When the kidnaooers -ound that Victor had the money, they came to get it—they even threatened the life of poor, little, meek Victor. Of course, tne police arrived on the scene just in time to save the day. The evening performance went off in splendid form, but in tne axternoon show, it just happened that when a suitcase which was not supposed to contain money was opened, the mon v fell out: tne cast stalled around in splendid form -until a place where the curtains could ce drawn was reached. However, there wore no casu- alties, and both performances were hits. Mr. Arestad, director of the music department of the Roundup High School, presented the annual Spring Concert April 25. Colored lights and a beautiful back-drop, suggested by Ruby Crosswhite, produced an effective background for the program, and especially for the girls of the vooal classes, who appeared in pastol formals, The band members were in uniform. The program was presented in four parts—two by the Girls Chorus, and two by the Band—the selections being as follows % Girls’ Vocal, Part I: Salutation—Gaines; Drink To Me Or.ly With Thine Eyes—Words ty Ben Johnson; The Heavens Are Telling—Haydn; When Day Is Done—Kat- seher; Neopolitan Nights—Zamecnik; Sleepy Hollow rune—Kauntas. 1 Part II: Listen To The Lambs—Dett; Nightfall I Granada--Bueno; The Piper From Over The Way—Brahe; At Evening Time—Wilson; The Lost Chord— Sullivan; Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee—Bach, Band, Part i: The Miner—Ruth Dye; Come, Sweet Death—Bach; Pan- theon—Holmes-; The Huskin’ Bee—Pickett; The Merry Widow—Lehar, Part II: March of Youth—Olivadoti; Finlandia—Sibelius; Youth of America -Yoder; Goin’ Home—Dvorak; Valedictorian Overture—Morris, Members cf the girls vooal; Margaret Barghultz, Alberta Beckman, Margaret Blazina, Erna Jean Crosmer, Ruby Crosswhite, Lillian Hunt, Selma Iverson, Lorraine Klos, Louise Lekse, Margaret Lynch, Matilda Maris, Nancy MaLaughlln, (SLoria Buell, Virginia Burns, Bertha Plum, Anne Sercel, Viola Steen, Henrietta Weinhold, Edith Wildin, Virginia Hunter, and Carlene Larson.

Roundup High School also has its queen, the Queen of the May. Each year the seniors elect five from their class. The student body then elects one from these five as their queen. The other four girls are her attendants. On the first Friday in May, a program is presented for the queen’s taste, and she is officially crowned May Queen. Anne Lar was this year's May Queen. Her attendants were Helen Kern, Edith Boyle, Virginia Carver, and Sylvia Ravnikar. Kathleen O'Neil, Sharon O’Neil, Claudie Fletcher, and Frank Polsak were the attendants. Helen Kern presented the queen with the crown, and George Raths, the scepter. The Processional was played by the high school band, during which the May Queen and her attendants entered and took their places on a stage that was beautifully decorated; soft, colored lights added to its attractiveness. The following program was then presented: Spe- cialty dance number--Virginia Hunter; Hi-Lights of the Year, from the Hobo Party--Marvin Kern, Joe Yakovich, Pat Dooay, anT'Gurriey Walters; Man Sews a Button on His Coat --Clarence Petaja; Song of Love Frank Gruden and Ruth Dye; Irish Dance--Dorothy Lynch, Dorothy Graham, ac- companied by Mildred Polich; One-Man Melodrama --Forrest Dobbins; May Day by Rosemarie Lynn and Gary Seitz; You Walk By —High School Girls; Maypole Dance--High School Girls; Recessional--High School Band.

This course covers the history of dramatics, the study of the lives of prominent dramatists and of both old and modern plays as well as the aotuallpro- duction of plays. It is the aim of the instructor to give every pupil a chance to make a public appearance during the year. Much fundamental training for thos' who are stage-minded is offered. Dramatics classes are, for the nose part, very informal, and are enjoyed by all who attend them. Don't thank you have to be an actor to take this course. Perhaps you like to work with make-up or with electrical contraptions backstage. A great deal of pleasure may be derived from such a course as this. PUBLIC SPEAKING . . . The training received in this course is varied. The student is introduced to all forms of speech--humorous after-dinner speeches, addresses, orations, debates, and many other types. This year the freshman public speaking classes presented the first declamatory contest zo be held in R.H.S. for many years. The students really enjoy themselves while they learn to express their thoughts in a clear, Interesting manner. If you are naturally a bashful or timid sort of person and want to help yourself, take this course, and we guarantee you will nover be sorry. MUSIC CLASSES . . . Do you like to sing or blow a horn? How about taking a music course? The music classes are open to anyone who thinks he can play an instrument, wants to play an instrument, or feels inspired to mako a noise with his own vocal chords. The sound-proof music room that isn't sound-proof enough permits music to float upward into the library. Naturally, some of it is corney, but as the year progress- es, so does the quality and quantity of the noa.ses emitted. The number of instruments is continually increasing until some day we will have a real band. The vocal classes are at present composed only of girls, but there is no law against boys attending, and it would increase interest if they did. Some boys can sing; all they lack is training. In the vocal classes pupils are instructed in the fundamentals of singing. Proper breathing is taught and practiced. Every Friday a famous composer's life is studied. Since skill is acquired cniy through practice, most of the class time is spent practicing, and it is amazing just how much enjoyment one can derive from a music class. Then, too, it is not every class-room that can boast a mouse--a very interesting little animal. Incidentally, tests are neither diffi- cult nor frequent in either vocal or instrumental, so taking music is both an easy and enjoyable way to earn an extra credit. MECHANICAL DRAWING . . . Mechanical drawing, as the name implies, is that study of cir- cles and lines that enable a draftsman, mechanic, or even a high school student to put a house, machine, or tool on paper. Besides reproducing things, the class, all boys, holds round-table discuss- ions. Dames, politics, basketball games, and a multitude of other things are discussed in these daily meetings. The boys are going to fix up a special table with knee-action shock absorbers and pneumatic joints for Jitters Ritterodt. He keeps the table jumping so much that, as Donald Beckman states, When I come in here in the morning, the table is still vibrating from the day before. Jimmy Weir has a marvelous art gallery tacked on his table--so we are told. It is of such quality that even Coach Marshall describes it as wild. SHORTHAND ... The Commercial Department is one of the most important depart- ments in our school system because it is the only one which prepares its graduates to go directly out into life and earn a living. Shorthand is not really a hard subject; it merely requires a little concentration. In this department much practical experience is gained by actually working at the same tasks which an employer would demand of an experienced stenographer. Every phase of a stenograph- er's duties is explained and the mysteries of all the various ma- chines explored. The Gregg Shorthand System is the one taught in R. H, S, TYPING . . . In the typing classes the use of all the many different type- writers is taught. This is a one-year course, but one that will prove very useful in the future. The touch method is used, and it -3.P°3S k -e t° attain ' very high speeds. As it is now correct to write all business and social letters on the type- writer, this course is more important than it was years ago. Then, too, typewritten letters and themes are appreciated more by friends and teachers than if they were written by hand. Through the ef- forts of this department this RODEO has been pub- lished, BOOKKEEPING . . . Would you like to know the proper way to keep books? This knowledge is invaluable, espedially to him who desires to work in an office or keep accu- rate accounts of his own business transactions. Dif- ferent methods of keeping books are studied, and practice sets are worked with just as if they were the actual books belonging to a large firm. What to do when unusual things happen is also studied. Did you ever wish you knew how to operate an adding ma- chine? Why not take this course and learn? ENGLISH I and II . . . The first two years of English offered are re- quired for graduation and include a thorough study of the mechanics of English as well as of a few great literary masterpieces. Such interesting works as The Lady of the Lake, Treasure Island, As You Like It, Julius Caesar, Silas Marner, and Ivan- hoe. AMERICAN LITERATURE . . . This course, required for all juniors, contains one semesters study of American literature from Col- onial times up to the present. The other semester is devoted to the study of English mechanics. Book re- ports form a regular part of the year's work. This _______________m year all the juniors wrote autobiographies, and they even wrote poems, if you dare call them that. ENGLISH LITERATURE English literature includes the study of Anglo-Saxon literature from the earliest Celtic works (about eighth century) up to 1941, The gradual developement of the English language is traced and the people of ancient England become very real. This course serves mere- ly to introduce the students to the English authors, for it would take many years to study thoroughly the great horde of writers. Be- sides studying literature, some original compositions and a small amount of mechanics of English grammar are required, BUSINESS ENGLISH , . , This course is very valuable to one planning a business career. Not only is a comprehensive business vocabulary acquired, but also the spelling of technical and catch words is taught. Then, too, a short study in business arithmetic is also included in this invalu- able course offered only to seniors. LATIN . . . Latin is not a dead language; it lives in English, A thorough knowledge of it assures a clear understanding of the mechanics of English grammar, for it is the foundation upon which the English lan- guage is built. First year Latin includes most of the principles of grammar, while during the second year c.r.aavpfs from Caesar are read. Through reading from the original works of i„.s Roman masters, a clear- er understanding of the ancient ci'viliaat Lons is attained. Would you like a larger vocabulary? Many modern English words are derivatives of Latin words. Why not take this cultural course? FRENCH « . . Although France is a fallen nation, her language lives on. Many literary masterpieces are written in the French language, and they must be read in the original liinguage in order to be fully appreci- ated, Colloquial expressions lose much of their original beauty and meaning if translated literally. This language is somewhat similar to English and is not difficult to learn. Besides learning to read and speak French, the customs of the French people are also studied. This foreign language is open only to upperclassmen. ALGEBRA ... Algebra is an ancient study; it has been hanced down to us from the ancient Phoenecians. This study, reqiiired for all freshmen, deals with using letters and symbols instead of numbers. In reality, it is just an extension of the grade school arithmetic. Some stu- dents complain about taking math subjects, but the discipline re- quired of the mind is -undoubtedly an asset to clear thinking in other fields. GEOMETRY ... Geometry is another science handed down to us by the ancient mariners. It is a study of lines, circles, squares, and triangles. Geometry explains the whys and wherefores about many simple formulas taught in the grades. If you would like to be an architect, a drafts- man, a mechanic, or even a gardener, this study will be useful. This is the last mathematical course required for graduation from R. H. S. ADVANCED MATH . . . Will the ladies' aid please come to order! At this command the advanced math class yawns and sits up somewhat straighter. This class--which this year has thirteen and one-half members--does not limit its discussions to math by any means. In this subject a large vocabulary is necessary. What is a generatrix? a directrix? a tetra- hedron? an icosahedron? How would you solve this problem? Each lat- eral edge of a triangular prism is 18 in length and makes an angle of 45 degrees with the plane of the base. Find the volume of the prism, if the sides of the base are 3, 10, and 12 inches respectively. Such are the problems solved by this ingenious class. It is only the courageous who dare enter room 20 during eighth period. Incidentally, girls are conspicuously absent. Why? GIRLS' PHYSICAL ED . . . This is the first year that any girls other than freshmen have been allowed to take this course. The girls learn a variety of things—dancing, basketball, baseball, marching, drilling, stunts, and the exer- cises usually associated with this subject. Each year this department is responsible for the May Day Pageant. Although this course earns no credits, what it teaches the girls is more worth their time than a flock of credits. BOYS' PHYSICAL ED . . . All freshman boys are required to take this, but the course is open to some upperclassmen. Coach is a firm believer in having a sound body, and so he puts the boys through all sorts of drills. Besides that they learn to play basketball, football, volley ball, and baseball. A tournament is conducted each year by these physical education classes. Here is a word to the wise—Coach usually picks Ms teams firan his classes. ANCIENT HISTORY . . . Do you ever just sit and dream about such tales as the Iliad? Wouldn't it be interesting to learn more about life in Homer's time? Why not choose an- cient history as an elective? It accounts for all history from the era of cave men up to Louis XIV, History repeats itself—and so it doesn't hurt anyone to know what has happened before. It helps one to make decisions more wisely. Then, too, history is just a story, an enjoyable story unless you make a heavy task of it. MODERN HISTORY ... Modern History begins where ancient history leaves off and con- tinues up to the present time. World affairs are changing so rapid- ly that one feels foolish not knowing what is going on in the world, so why not take this course and be in the know ? Current event re- ports are given each week and the background of important questions is considered thoroughly. In this day of changing maps, why not keep yours changing, too? AMERICAN HISTORY ... _ _ „ In fourteen hundred ninety-two Columbus sailed the ocean blue, thus quotes the American history student, vainly trying to remembor hi3 dates. In truth, American history began before this time; it bopan with the Norsemen's coming conturios before the world heard of Mr. Columbus. Events from that day up to 1941 have boon studied and supposedly mastered. Tho last two months soc this class studying American government--and really studying it, too. Before anyone graduates from this school he must satisfy Mr Wetzel that he knows his Amorican history and government. ECONOMICS AND SOCIOLOGY ... .. This course takes up tho study of social conditions and tnc development of the individual and the state. To bo roally educated and to know how to livo in and approciato a domocracy, ono muso know his economics. Present conditions aro studied and tho probable causes and results arc determined. If you ever oxpcct to bocome a lawyer, a doctor, a tcachor, a dobator--ln fact, if you over expoc to becomo anything--take an economics course. BIOLOGY . . . Don't be afraid, girls, for biology is more than a study of worms, tadpoles, and centipedes. It is a very interesting study of life of all sorts. The simplest animal and plant organisms, as well as the more complex varieties, are all studied. Wouldn't it be Interesting to know how microbes reproduce? Did you know that a study of bird life is very fascinating? Many boys have always de- sired to see what the insides of starfish or frogs look like. Bi- ology is-the place for them. This is, essentially, an informal class, and the wisdom obsorbed even if you don't study will serve you to good purpose throughout life. CHEMISTRY . . . ''Quiet J Can you hear? Ted and Don, you giggle worse than six girls. Thus Mrs. Hawkes quiets her noisy test-tube-busters in the chern. lab. Besides learning chemistry, her flock learns to en- joy life. Chief among their accomplishments are distilling alcohol, making bad smells, and causing explosions. That genial genius of the test tubes, Ed Nicholson, after surviving all the explosions of Spring Fever, blew himself and everyone else up the day after the play. He still carries a scar. The wild-eyed scientist roaming , around breaking everyone’s apparatus but his own is Ted Max. Ted is always putting something together that shouldn't be. • Some of the boys particularly enjoy giving the girls across the way a shower- bath. Jenne Weir tried her strip-tease act with sulfuric acid. (Incidentally, it worked.) Whenever anyone , misses a beaker, retort, or tube, it is found in the Rath-Weir drawer. There is a serious side to chemistry, too. Pupils learn such varied things as why water is wet, how a molecule is composed, when an explosion will occur, which chemicals are poisonous or of medicin- al value, and what happens when hydrogen burns. This class is in- strictive, interesting, and the one place where curious persons can explore without being tjOld not to, GENERAL SCIENCE. . . Have you over gazed at the stars at night and wondered what they were? Now, if you had taken this course, you would know. You would know the names of thd. v ariou obhafcallfttIons and other-, inter- esting facts about thorn. This is just a goncral science, as its name implios, and includes introductions in all the sciences--chem- istry, biology, physics, astronomy. Perhaps you can't mako up your mind just what sciences you want to take, Aftor having had this subjoct, you will know just what suits you boat. HOME ECONOMICS . . . Notioe--All girls who expect to catch a husband when they bid farewell to their high school days must, take this course. Remember, girls, 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Even .if you are not planning to catch a husband, you will want to know how to cook and sew for yourself. Besides learn- ing to cook, you will experiment a little with sewing and hone decorating. There are many pet peeves in sewing, but a little patience will cure them all. The only bad thing about cooking is that the girls have to eat everything they cook. Of course, some days a few of them are a little sick, but the next day they will have better luck—maybe. When you are having one of your very bad days in home $c., you can just think of the wonderful husband you are going to have when you are out of school, P. S. The school does not guarantee, the husband. You must catch him yourself SRUIOa LAY . . Tbds year the senior class again went to Billings where it was the guest 01' the Billings' Commercial Club, Altogether, there were about .four hundred, seventy high school seniors, representing most of the nearby towns, in Billings on April 25. The group from Roundup left home at 8:00 o'clock, and after arriving in Billings was turned Loose'1 until 5:00 o'clock. Some groups went to the show, others went to a day-time dance, while still others spent their time visiting bak- eries, bottling works, printing offices, milling plants, and the vari- ous stores. However, it was generally agreed by those who had visited the KGHL transmitter that it was one of the most interesting places. A free lunch, cafeteria style, was served by the commercial” club to all visiting students and their chaperones. The Roundup-bound caravan started for home at 6;00 o'clock--only one hour late--and evoryone ar- rived home safe and sound. POET LAUREATE . . . England isn't the only place to have a poet laureate. No, indeed, for R. H. S. also has onc--a junior lad named Tod Max (sounds poetic, doesn't it?) Ted spends his spare time jotting down couplets and com- plete verses. He has a verse for every occasion and can write about anything or nothing. Horc's to your future success. Tod . . . ACQUARIUM , . . Have you ovo� noticed the acquarium in the biology room? In it arc many plants, rishos, snails, turtles, and other marine animals. These animals live practically normal livos--all, that'is, exoopt tho snails, Mrs. Snail, the poor, unoapcrionccd lady, had eggs and dis- aster all in one day. It seems that she and her husband didn't know that those eggs might some day become their kith and kin. They ate them all up. However, wo might montion that mama frog and hor young tadpoles are all progressing nicely. TO THE HICK . , . In this annual you may read about the famous old westerners and cowboys, but they aren't all in books. Look around. Your own classmates, or porhaps you, yourself, might be a modern cowboy. Of course, the cowboy of 1941 does sometimes drive his cattle with a pick-up, but you can bet your neck he has a horse and knows how to ride. The days of totin' six-guns are over, but the small rancher still raises his cattle, horses, sheep, or sometimes mules. Roundup's annual rodeo is for the most part put on by local boys who use local stock. Montana's small ranchers must usually have some other occupation. You can find them doing anything from coal mining to operating a sawmill. In most communi- ties, hicks are looked down on, and they try to hide the fact that they came from a ranch. Quite a number of people still live on ranches, and a surprisingly large number have lived on them. So, here's to the hick, the modern cowboy who keeps company with a portable radio and drives a '41 Chevrolet. (Writton by a city slicker) DELVING INTO THE LIGHT FANTASTIC Dog versus Cat The cat came Into the assembly room With a poodle on Its tail. The cat jumped on Bert Halock's broom. The pooch hopped on a rail. The dog set up an awful roar With the kitty chiming in, The teachers had to shut the door To stop the awful din. The kitty turned the tables With this dog iw fast -retreat . And although he didn’t know it. He was heading for defeat. The kitty chased that doggy All over the entire school. He was getting awful groggy, And he knew he was a fdol. The doggy turned around-about, With his huge mouth opened wide, The cat put on his hydraulic brakes, And ho almost croaked and died. The doggy often wonders As he ambles about the school. How he made some awful blunders And made himself a fool 1I1 --Ted Max, ’42 PRINCE BECOMES PAUPER. . . Yes, our principal has become a papa. When? March 14. R. JI. S. will never forget that day. Poor Mr. Y etzol--so flustered and • anx- ious --aimlessly wandered around the building all morning. Students remarked at his pale color and nervousness, and the office girls found impos side to keep track of him, for he was literally a dashing young prince that day. By noon the blessed bundle had arrived and the school v as rather unruly. Petitions were circulated to ask Wet for candy suckers instead of cigars, but our principal had become a auper and so the thoughtful senior class presented young Susan Jo with a locket and some flowers instead. STUDENT SWING BAND . . . There is one group which has been very active in high school this year, although It is not directly connected with the school. It is the swing band composed of Ruth Dye, Frank Gruden, Gene Gruden, Ken- neth McGibboney, and Ben Vicars. At assembly programs, between acts Plays an at ot er’ important functions this group has ddnxted their services. Their music, the student-body agrees, is almost pro- fessional sounding Such school spirit as theirs deserves praise. 8? sr—Ammj? ira £= ''Shorty Anderson is just a little over 5 feet tall and hopes to become a dress designer.

Never make dates with biology students; they enjoy cutting up too much. 3. 3he football man is all right; he will take anything. 4. The tennis man is harmless; but he en- joys a racket. 5.
