Class Histor The class of '57 entered Savage High School, August 31, 1953 with fifteen mem- bers. Three of our classmates, Robert Sharbono, Alice Kassner and Everett Mitchell dropped out during the year. Our class activities consisted of getting initiated, paint- ing the S and giving a Sophomore retum party. Mrs. Larson was our class sponsor. We entered our Sophomore year with only ten members, Lorraine Forry and Donald Masvelten having moved away during the summer. This number was soon increased to eleven, however, when Kay Hagler transferred from Miles City at the semester. During the course of the year we initiated the freshmen, and put on the all school Prom using as our theme Old Mexico. Mr. Calkins was our class sponsor that year. We began our Junior year September 6, 1955 with an enrollment of eleven, which we have kept to this date. Mr. Kelly was our class sponsor and under his direction we presented our Junior Class Play Reserve Two For Murder and put on the Junior-Senior Banquet. We began our final year at Savage High on September 7, 19563 with Mr. Gundlach and Mr. Scott as our sponsors. Our Senior year activities consisted of putting on our Senior Class Play Hil1billy Weddin, directed by Mr. Kelly, getting our graduation pictures taken at Artice Studios in Williston, and most important of all Baccalaureate. which was held May 19, and Commencement exercises May 23, at the school gymna- sium.
