INITIATION DAY Said our sponsors to our class one day, At last we should have our 'nitiation day. What say, al you Seniors, what say? At last you nay have your revenge today. So gatnered the Seniors the Freshmen anon. All sci oaxing, inquiring, What's on, what's on? Nov , j-ou might know, said their bosses to them, We stand for no foolishness—now, or then. So came the Freshmen to school this fine day. In skirts were the boys, for 'twas 'nitiation day. And all their young girl friends with ties so straight Made very fine boys with their long strides and gaits. And now comes the highlight in this strange array. A contest for beauty was managed some way. Ihree lovely ladies strolled by on parade; You'd ne'er guess they were boys, for they needed no aid. Now back and nov„r forth they strutted by Whilst turning around—a sight for sore eyes. Ah, but 'twas hard to choose which should win; For lovely were they, but cared not a whim. With envy and wonder the girls all looked on; For ne'er before was there such a phenomenon. At last then 'twas over arf al± talkod about— Another odd doings with the Freshmen all out. At last acme the end with stunts all done— Another ' nitiation—yes, truly this one Was one to get oven for years long gone by— Tho Seniors all happy to let everything lio. Marian Liggett '46

HOLIDAY FOR SENIORS Once upon a time someone originated the much-applauded idea of a senior sneak-day. The v hys, whens, and v herefores have not been re- corded, but the idea has lived.- So as not to disrupt the tradition, our 1946 senior class turned up missing Friday, April 12th. While the remainder of Rotmdup High School struggled on without their guid- ing light, these escaping veterans were cutting capers at the Lion’s Club Camp above Red Lodge. Before arriving at their destination, they scoured Red Lodge for the creamery (No picnic is complete without ice cream, you know.), frightened students from Red Lodge High School, chased citizens off the streets and forced shopkeepers to bar their doors against the on- coming mob. Well, no, not that bad, but we’ve heard rumors that some townspeople at Red Lodge thought they were the victims of atomic bomb tests. And then--they went to the Lion’s Club Camp. This drive of a mere four or five miles took at least sixty minutes. The delays occurred when one senior decided to visit his relative, one car stalled, and a merry chase was on to find the road which led to Camp Lions. Upon arriving, several adventuresome souls explored the sur- rounding territory; some exhibited their skill at baseball; some pre- pared the food; others merely sat around and looked hungry. And now for the grub ; If all the weiners were placed end to end, they would have reached from Kalamazoo to Nome Alaska, with buns to run a line parallel. Not to mention boxes of potato chips, bowls of potato salad, and cases of pop. ( Get your ice-cold pop from the corner snow-drift!1 ) With all the appetites appeased, the energy exhausted, they made thoir weary way toward the zoo. Red Lodge, Billings, and home. For further details of the trip interview any of o ir seniors recently recuperated from battle fatigue, and relive the entire excursion through thoir photograph albums.
