Let us pause for a moment and take an inven- tory of the pupils who entered high school as freshmen at that time. Who are they? Why, it's the Senior Class of 1940 of course. As the class was organized, we found the following students enrolled: Sidney As- lagson, Kermit Barsness, David Belgum, Arthur Berg, Arden Brenden, Adeline Brevig, Laura Brevig, Or- ville Dahlseng, LeRoy Ekstrom, Arthur Erickson, Eu- nice Erickson, Betty Evanson, Avis Evjen, Clarice Foss, Naomi Foss, Howard Hagen, Adeline Hanson, Verna Hanson, Dellora Hidem, Ernest Hoium, Wallace Hoium, Elaine Kjera, Arlen Kleven, Vernon Larson, Gerhard Lingen, Helen Lorvig, Margaret Lund, James Moen, Doris Myking, Walter Nelson, LeRoy Olson, Mildred Olson, Earl Person, Paul Samuelson, Fern Sanvik, Mar- garet Sanvik, Olivia Skaaden, Ardis Skoglund, Lilian Stadsvold, Howard Teigen, and Harriette Thorstad. Our numbers were depleted, however, as Kermit Bars- ness, Adeline Brevig, Laura Brevig, Arthur Erickson, Avis Evjen, and Ernest Hoium dropped out during the year. At our first class meeting, we elected the follow- ing officers: president, Vernon Larsong vice president, Margaret Sanvikg secretary, Dellora Hidemg treasurer, Ardis Skoglund. For our class advisor we chose Miss Lilian Charlesworth. Our first social event was a party given in our hon- or by the Sophomores. Not to be outdone and to show our appreciation we tendered them one in return. Af- ter nine months of hard work we welcomed a vacation. All too quickly the three months sped by, and we were confronted with the matter of taking up our studies again-this time, however, as Sophomores. Taking stock of ourselves, we found that Margaret Lund had failed to return but that Gordon Wiltse, El- our ranks. up as did dora Berg, and Irene Peterson had joined Both these girls left before the year was David Belgum. In organizing our class we elected the following officers: president, Doris Mykingg vice presi- dent, Lilian Stadsvoldg secretary, Margaret Sanvik, treasurer, Harriette Thorstad. Mr. F. V. Nygaard was chosen class advisor. Realizing that we were setting an example to the on-coming Freshmen, we applied ourselves studiously and finished a very profitable school year. We also gave the Freshmen a party which they returned. In an unbelievably short time we were launched upon our Junior year. Even though Verna Hanson did not return, the entrance of Agnes Benson, Arthur Eby, and Arthur Hanson swelled our class. However, LeRoy Olson left us during the year. The business of elect- ing officers was soon taken care of with the following results: president, Arden Brendeng vice president, Del- lora Hidem, secretary, Margaret Sanvik, treasurer, Vernon Larson, class advisor, Miss Mae Schendel. This proved to be a very busy year for us because on Nov- ember 18, we presented our class play, There Goes Henry under the able leadership of Mr. J. P. Lunstad. Another event which claimed our attention was the Junior-Senior banquet which we gave in April. The banquet had as its theme the cold land of the Eskimos. We are Seniors! That was the thought that was up- permost in our minds as we started on the last lap of our high school career. Arthur Eby did not return but his absence was offset when Ralph Skinner and Ker- mit Hansen joined our class. There were now thirty- six of us left to carry on. This year Harriette Thor- stad was elected president, Lilian Stadsvold, vice presi- dent, Ardis Skoglund, secretaryg and Adeline Hanson, treasurer. By a unanimous vote Supt. W. A. Peterson was elected class advisor. An event of interest to us was the crowning of our classmate, Naomi Foss, as Carnival Queen for the year 1939-1940. On April 19 we were pleasantly entertained by the Juniors at the Junior-Senior banquet. Our class play, Mountain Mumps under Mr. Lunstad's guidance, was given on Friday, May 24. As we wind up our affairs in Starbuck High School and set forth into the world, may we never forget our motto, Not on the heights, but climbing. Class Will Having completed our brief span of existence as students of S. H. S. and being about to enter into con- ditions that are far different from those we have found in school life, we wish to bequeath to those who re- main certain possessions, some cumbersome, others rather dear. We hope that by specifying the recipients, we may avoid any fighting or disputing among those who will no doubt eagerly await the apportionment of our estate. To the class of '41 we leave our leadership in school activities and seats in the assembly. To the sophomores we give the responsibility of introducing the frosh into the mysteries of proper student conduct To all we leave our worn-out books, erasers, pencils, papers, etc. Arlen Kleven wills half of his height to John Thomp- son. Helen Lorvig wills her calmness and efficiency to Sylvia Ramstad so that she may become a dignified senior. To Irwin Knutson, Naomi Foss wills her spontan- eous smile. Dellora Hidem bequeaths her ability to laugh at her own corny jokes to James Erickson. Earl Person leaves his Irish wit to Betty Overson. Walter Nelson wills his philosophy of life to Norris Evjen. Thomas Hagert will receive Eunice Erickson's Eng- lish notebook on the condition that he will put it in good use. Olivia Skaaden relinquishes a portion of the volume of her voice to anyone whose vocal chords are over- developed. Kermit Hansen tearfully wills his great preparation for exams to Orlette Lageson. 1940 CHIPPEWAN Page5 CCLASS WILL CONTINUEDJ Ardis Skoglund and Lilian Stadsvold will their loy-- alty to playing piano duets to anyone who wants the limelight for a while. To Verna Landmark, Ralph Skinner leaves his great promptness. Agnes Benson leaves her fun while riding to school on a truck every Friday morning to anyone with an interest in trucking. Margaret Sanvik gives all old wads of gum adher- ing to her desk to its next occupant. The Seniors next year will not need to fear low grades for Adeline Hanson wills her abundance of A's. Paul Samuelson blows one last note on his tuba to the Junior class. Babe Thorstad wills her ability for playing character parts in class plays to Adeline Brevig. his knowledge of the Nor- Orville Dahlseng wills wegian language to Mary Jane Lynch. Arden Brenden leaves Sylvia Ronnie. To Vivian Amundson, Mildred Olson gives all her self-control. Sidney Aslagson leaves his curly hair to Alice New- lerry with the stipulation that she abandon the curl- ing iron. Gordon Wiltse leaves all his old comic books, avia- tion magazines and the like to be read by the students during their leisure time. Betty Evenson has designated Lillian Espelien to fill the gap left by her in the Glee Club. LeRoy Ekstrom wills his business ability to Sears Roebuck. Hcward Hagen leaves his quaint sayings and un- timely interruptions to Arvie Gaarder. Nordstrom! To you Gerhard Lingen wills his argumentative spirit to Herbert his golden silence. Wallace Hoium leaves his old tennis shoes for next year's bat boy. James Moen wills all old drum sticks to Dorothy Samuelson. Elaine Kjera leaves her habit of gazing Heavenward during a report to Robert Schroeder. Art Hanson wills his ability for making excuses to talk to the girls to Maynard Vinge. Art Berg leaves his place on the basketball squad to anyone capable of filling it. Clarice Foss and Fern Sanvik will their industrious habits and all old Latin stories to Perry Berg. To John Quanbeck, Howard Teigen wills his bass voice. So that the freshmen may get an abundance of Christmas gifts from Santa, Vernon Larson leaves a pair of his socks fsize 135 to hang before the mantle. Doris Myking bequeaths her habits of falling asleep in class to LuVerne Dalva. In witness whereof, we the class of 1940, the testator have to this our will set our hand and seal, this 25th day of April 1940. DORIS MYKING DELLORA HIDEM Prophecy Exactly ten years ago we graduated from high school. It's a long time since we've seen some of our classmates, but we have reports from all of them. Just the other day when we were back in the old home town, Starbuck, for a visit we went into the local beauty salon. Betty Evanson, the owner, greeted us. She's putting a new product on the market- Sure Grow Hair Restorer. We have it on good authority that our former professor, W. A. Peterson, was one of her first customers. Margaret Sanvik married the boy next door who became a civil engineer, and off they went to South America. Margaret devotes her spare time to teach- ing the native boys to Serenade the girl friends on the cello. You've probably read about some of our classmates in the newspaper. All you politicians have read of Senator Brenden, the new factor in the Anti-Labor party, and his brilliant campaign speeches demanding more ink and new blotters for all postoffices. His wife, the former Lilian Stadsvold, is heralded as one of the most beautiful women in Washington. Personal: Ade- line Hanson is his secretary. Hailed as a second Einstein, Eunice Erickson has risen to fame with her discovery of a fifth dimension. LeRoy Ekstrom is participating in the 1950 Olympics, running the 100 yard dash. Whenever a bell rings, LeRoy is off in a cloud of dust. He got his early train- ing running out of the assembly. Arlen Kleven and his Jumpin' Jive Swing Band is now opening at the Cocoanut Grove. Hear that hep- cat beating the skins? That's Jimmy Moen! ' Earl Person is starring in a Coney Island Side Show as the Man With A Thousand Faces. Sharing honors with him is Paul Samuelson Cafter vigorous dietingj as the Third Thin Man. We saw Mildred Olson's name in lights on Broadway, where she is playing the title role in The Sphinx. Orville Dahlseng is sound effects man on station K-L-U-N-K. His specialty is animal interpretations. Sidney Aslagson is employed by the same network where he is known as Uncle Sid. He reads the funnies every Sunday morning to all the little folks. Sleep nights! Sleep days if you work nights! Sleep anytime you want to, provided you remember to stock your medicine chest with Kermit Hansen's little in- somnia pills. Be sure to put your order in early, for the supply is limited. Coach Walt Nelson of the Starbuck Sub-Normal prophesies a big season for his football squad. Howard Hagen in the role of manager of the basketball team has been contracted to endorse the Acme Cod Liver Oil capsules which he has been feeding his teams ever since he was high school manager back in 1940. Ever have trouble with mother-in-law? Send her to the Federal Home for Aged which is under the man- agement of Olivia Skaaden, Elaine Kjera, Clarice Foss Pageii CHIPPEWAN 1940 QPROPHECY CONTINUEDJ and Fern Sanvik. This is an added provision of the Social Security Act we heard so much about back in 1940. Another of our classmates in radio is Art Hanson who croons love songs on the Excel Dog Biscuit Hour, sponsored by Ralph Skinner, Incorporated. Howard Teigen and Arthur Berg purchased a phono- graph to induce the hens on their ranch to increase the egg supply. It worked fine for a while but one morn- ing they were shocked to find nary an egg. Then they realized the phonograph was playing, Hold Tight. During our stay in Starbuck, we visited the New Hotel run by Naomi Foss and Helen Lorvig. The latest labor saving device they have installed is an automa- tic bed maker. If you visit New York and ever want company, drop into Larson's Escort Bureau. Our old classmate Ver- non is the founder, owner and manager. He guarantees a date for every lonely lassie. Agnes Benson, the model housewife, is trying to per- fect her culinery art. Her latest accomplishment is Hamburger Supreme. With a troupe of Shakespearian actors and actresses, Babe Thorstad is touring Europe. Her specialty is the Sleep Walking Scene from Macbeth. Gordon Wiltse is president of the Stratosphere Air- lines. On his largest ship the stewardess is none other than Ardis Skoglund, another senior whose ambition has been realized. Wallace Hoium is press agent for Gloria La Glamour. His latest publicity stunt was having Miss La Glamour jump from the Empire State Building in a parachute. Down in Brazil Gerhard Lingen has made his for- tune as the owner of a vast rubber tree plantation. He sells his raw product to a large concern in Pittsburgh where it is utilized in the making of babies' teething rings. It's been fun to renew acquaintances with old friends, and we're sure we can be very proud of the class of '40, DORIS MYKING DELLORA HIDEM MOST REPRESENTATIVE SENIOR GIRL AND BOY 1932 - 1940 In 1932 the Starbuck Study Club presented a trophy to the school on which is engraved the name of the most representative girl and boy in each senior class.

The Seniors would probably wear the gold plat- ing off the very first day. Here are some of the things they would be likely to wish for: 1. Easy chairs and couches in classrooms. 2. No classes until 10:30, dismissal at 1:30. 3. Trapdoor on auditorium platform for automatic elimination of dry speakers. 4. Muzzles for teachers. 5. Phonograph records of school yells so there will be no strained voices after basketball games. 6. Honor rolls to be chosen from lower fourth of the list. 7. Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing machines for students. 8. Collapsible books than can be carried in the pocket. 9. Knowledge tablets to be taken before tests. 10. No school the day after vacation. 11. Elimination of final exams. 12. Miniature radio sets to enable students to keep up on all popular songs. 13. Lunch served between classes. 14. Escalators between floors. 15. Latest movies shown at regular intervals. 16. Taxi service to transport students to and from school. 17. All graduation expenses paid by school district Un appreciation for our leaving them.J 18. Talking books-to avoid eyestrain. Buff' 1940 SENIORS 1940 SIDNEY ASLAGSON Sill XVomen?

About 35 boys, headed by Captain Vernon Larson, Henry Nodland, and Arthur Berg, answered this call in hopes of gaining a starting berth. After a few weeks of practice a strong aggregation was formed. With seven men making up the front line we were attacked by Osakis in one of the first games played in the state. Flight men saw service that night and pushed back the enemy to the tune of a 31 to 22 score. In spite of the fact that one veteran was out of the game in the first quarter due to a new ruling on fouling, the Bucks played a fine brand of ball and had the fans foreseeing a very successful season. Settling down into the swing of things the Bucks showed a powerful offense in trampling over Brooten 68 to 24. Wheaton and Elbow Lake t.hen fell before the hot basketeers from Starbuck by the respective scores of 36 to 24 and 20 to 16. The pace was too good, however, when they ran up against a sharp-shooting gang from Benson, and were beaten by a 29 to 27 score. The alumni then evened up the twelve game series by pounding out a 26 to I7 victory over the prepsters. After the Christmas vacation the Bucks stormed back and won I0 conseetutive games. These victims were Kensington, Fhokio, Belgrade, Wheaton, lVlorris, Benson, and two from Hancock and Alberta. The streak was broken. however, when we invaded Elbow Lake's court. After a hard-fought battle Elbow Lake emerged the victors by a 27 to 23 score. The next game was with our traditional rivals from across the lake. The home gym was packed by game time and the most thrilling battle of the season was rolled off. With about a minute left in the tlillllv. Starbuck, which had been trailing by one point. drove through for three rapid buckets and put the game on ice. The score read, lVlaroons 36 'Blues 31. ln the week that followed Starbiick defeated Ken- sington and again came into contact with Glenwood. This game proved, financially, to be the best game of tContinued on following pagej 1940 CHIPPEWAN CBASKETBALL CONTINUED! the year for our neighbors. According to loyal Star- buck fans we outplayed our rivals but when the final gong sounded Glenwood was on top by a 29-27 margin. The following week we entered the Sub-District tournament at the A-C gym in Morris. In a hard fought game we came out on top of Morris High by a score of 30 to 24. The Bucks were lucky in drawing a bye for the following night while Hancock and Alberta fought it out for a chance to meet Starbuck in the fin- als. On Friday night we squared off against Hancock and defeated them by a 30 to 22 score. Thus the Bucks brought home the championship trophy. Larson, Nod- land and Opheim were named on the Sub-District first team, while A. Berg was named on the second team. In our first game of the District tourney at Wheaton we steam-rolled over Chokio by a 53 to 25 margin. Larson broke the school's individual scoring record by bucketing 27 points. Breckenridge, our next foe, had been our target for the last two years and practically our entire town moved to Wheaton to see this clash. In spite of our moral support we got off to a bad start and were unable to dethrone the champs. Breck won 38 to 28. We were defeated by two points in the consola- tion game by Elbow Lake in a bitter battle. Brecken- ridge defeated Wheaton for the championship. Larson rated the District first team while Nodland was named on the second team. Breckenridge won the regional as well as the state tournament. The regulars won 17 out of 20 games for a season's percentage of .850. They scored 684 points for an av- erage of 34 points per game. The opponents scored a total of 445 points for an average of 22 points per game. Starbuck got 218 fouls to the opponents 201. The B Team won 15 out of 21 games for a percen- tage of .7l4. They scored 397 points, with an average of 19 points per game, to their opponent's 319 points, an average of 15 points per game.

The Seniors were victorious by a score of 18 to 13 This gave the Seniors the right to play the winners oi the Junior-Sophomore game for the championship. In the second game of the tournament the Sopho- mores defeated the Juniors by a score of 26 to 21. The consolation and championship games were play- ed on Friday night. The Juniors trounced the Fresh- men in the consolation game 45 to 7. The Sophomores defeated the Seniors 26 to 16 in a hard-fought battle to be declared the inter-class champions of 1940. PEWAN 1940 GIRLS' BASKETBALL Girls' basketball has been organized to arouse inter- est in athletics among girls. ln the school year of 1936-37, we, merely freshmen. enthusiastically joined the girls' basketball team. Through cooperation, we enjoyed immensely practis- ing an hour on every Tuesday and Thursday under the supervision of Miss Schendel. During the year 1937-38 each sophomore had made a resolution to win the tournament of that year. We strived hard for the championship but were defeated in the championship game, which the seniors won by a small margin of 25-20. We also played one prelim- inary game with the freshmen, losing by one point, the final score being 21-20. During 1938-39 only half of our squad came out for practices eliminating ug from the class tournaments. Having renewed interest a combined squad of Juni- ors and Seniors entered into the last year of our high school basketball, this time under the supervision of Miss Dahlberg. We all went out for practise and de- cided to play the best basketball possible. By good team work we were able to conquer the freshmen in a preliminary to a boys' game on January 22, by a score of 17-10. In a real combat with the sophomores, in the class tournaments, we were defeated by a 27-24 score.

Football was resumed after having a periord of four years rest. It was quite a different set-up, where only six men played. It was entirely new and different, six-man l'ootball. And so again a new football spirit was born among the athletes of Starbuck, all wondering how Starbuck would t'air with no experience at all among the enthusiastic players. Starbuck was one of the eight teams which belonged to the Little Eight league and was considered one of the strongest teams in it. One practice game was se- cured with Hoffman and from this game Coach Ny- gaard saw possibilities in having a strong team before the regular schedule started. Twenty men responded to Coach Nygaard's call They included A. Brenden, W. Hoium, V. Larson, Person, Henry Nodland, S. Aslakson, J. Moen, W. Nel- son, P. Samuelson, E. Brevig, R. Berens, J. Evans, O. Disrud, T. Hagert, E. Opheim, J. Erickson, O. Dahl- seng, A. Berg, C. Olson, and A. Sylvester. A captain was chosen before each game. The season's schedule of four games was the smallest ever scheduled in the history of the school. The seasonls most costly and only defeat came from Alberta. This setback deprived us of the championship of the League. The first weeks of the season were not at all en- couraging, as the squad consisted of a large group of new and inexperienced candidates, but as the season progressed a steady improvement could be seen in every game. Coach Nygaard developed a fast and fighting team which experienced defeat but once dur- ing the season. Continued on Followmg Page Page20 CI-IIPPEWAN 1940 Graceville 0: Starbuck 32 Starbuck took its first victory of the season from a highly-rated Graceville team, with Brenden, Larson, Nodland, Person, I-Ioium, and Nelson in the lineup. During the first quarter of play Graceville threatened to score, but always lacked the final punch. But with good leadership of plays called by our quarterback, V. Larson, we pulled out victorious by a score of 32 to 0. Hancock 16: Starbuck 70 The Hancock men were the next victims to give the Starbuck team a scalp. The game proved to be an easy victory, as the Hancock team could not stand the grueling pace the fair Norwegians set. Good blocking, interference, and defensive play were the features of this game. Hoium, at center, played an outstanding game, as he opened holes in the center of the line to let fullback A. Brenden score twice in the first few minutes of the game. When the 48 playing minutes were up Hancock was content to let the battle subside. Alberta, 19: Starbuck 12 Starbuck dropped its only game to Alberta. Due to the absence of our regular quarterback, V. Larson, our team did not function just right. Starbuck threatened to score but fell short each time. However, we suc- ceeded in crossing the goal line two times, with half- back Nodland accounting for one touchdown in a spec- tacular run. A hard battle followed throughout the game and at the finish found Alberta in the lead by a score of 19 to 12. Chokio 22: Starbuck 24 The Chokio game meant the end of the high school football career for many, as well as the last game of the season. In order to make it a gala event the Star- buck team staged a rally which netted 24 points to Chokio's 22. This game proved to be the thriller of the season. Chokio proved to have just as scrappy a team as we did and played above expectations. Starbuck scored the first counter soon after the opening whistle, in which V. Larson crossed the goal without a man touch- ing him. Chokio retaliated soon after on a nicely exe- cuted pass, and scored the extra point. At the half, Starbuck was on the short end with a score of 6 to 16. But with new encouragement at the half from Coach Nygaard we found quarterback V. Larson running 42 yards for his second touchdown, with Chokio players hanging on every limb. This created a new spirit in the whole team. Later, on a pass from Nodland to A. Berg, we soon emerged near the coveted goal from which A. Brenden submar- ined across for a score of 18 to 22. A few plays later A. Brenden recovered a fumble on the 20 yard line and again a pass was completed in which we found our- selves up against the goal with only a few minutes re- maining. Again Larson barked out the right signal, when half back, W. Nelson swayed the Chokio line to one side as he crossed the goal for the victory. The final minutes found Evjen, a sophomore, hitting the Chokio defensive wall for gains every trip, until the plow boy finally had to stop when the final gun sounded its message, the last game of the season, the final game for nine seniors, and a 24 to 22 victory for Starbuck. This season we won three and lost one. Starbuck's total points were 138 to their opponent's 57. None of the opponents points were from scrimmage. May next year's team be ever more successful and come through the season undefeated. This season finished the football careers of nine seniors. They are Arden Brenden, Vernon Larson, Earl Person, Sidney Aslagson, Wallace Hoium, James Moen, Arthur Berg, Walter Nelson, and Paul Samuel- son. ittwn u fl W .g U qg,,v' rl, VJ-CJ?,.' .. 04, Will f fu'fWfMflf frqv 43, EXWAN Pagezi in fr j - Q .. ,.

About thirty enthusiactic boys reported to Coach F. V. Nygaard. By April 24th the squad was cut to twenty-five. The season is short and the weather of- ten inclement. Thus far this season one game, the re- turn game with Alberta, has had to be cancelled be- cause of rain. As our annual goes to press before the results of all of our games are complete we include mnly those games that have been played, the season's schedule, and the names of the nine members of the baseball squad who are seniors. Senior members on the team, and most of them veterans and letter win- ners, are Orville Dahlseng, Vernon Larson, Walter lXel-'on, Arthur Berg, Wallace Hoium, Gerhard Lingen, Sidney Aslagson, Earl Person, and Arden Brenden. They wish the best of luck for next year's team. On April 24 the Bucks journeyed to Alberta, only to l'e defeated by the rather decisive score of ll to 3. Vernon Larson started on the mound but got into dif- tculty and was relieved by Roy Berens, who did a nice job ol' checking the Alberta swatsmen. Orville Dahl- seng had the Alberta hurlers worried whenever he :etc-ppcll to the plate, as he got a long triple in the se- cond inning. Cooper, the Alberta pitcher, deserves much credit, as he really had the Bucks swinging at thin air throughout most of the game. May 7 found Morris High School playing Starbuck, and the Bucks turned back Morirs by a score of 4 to 0. Roy Berens pitched a three-hit game allowing no one to reach third and only two reached second. He struck out eight batters. Starbuck got seven hits and had nine men left on base. Starbuck High School played Hancock at Hancock on May 9 and won by a score of 7 to 3. Perry Berg went the route for the Bucks, allowed 6 hits, and struck out seven batsmen. Schmidgall and Thurson pitched for Hancock, and the Bucks got 10 hits off their delivery. Three games remain on the schedule, namely Cyrus, Chokio, and Wheaton, but these will be played too late to be included in this year's annual.

Farm Shop, a new development in Agriculture education in Minnesota, was instituted along with the new course. The annex, formerly occupied by the lower four grades, was moved directly north of the school build- ing proper. A full basement was built underneath and a complete job of refinishing was done inside the building. That, along with the new shop equipment. classroom fixtures, and laboratory facilities turned the once temporarily constructed building into a perman- ent home for the Vocational Agriculture Department. Agriculture is a course designed primarily for rural boys interested in farming as a probable vocation. In addition to offering four years of Agriculture, the de- partment conducts part-time classes for young farm men and evening classes for adult farmers during the slack season of the year. The board of education, the citizens of Starbuck, and the school administration are to be congratulated upon their foresight and progressive attitude in instituting a program of Agriculture Education in the Community. Twelve Vocational Agriculture students attended the Ag Students' Congress held annually at the University Farm, St. Paul. where they participated in various contests and short course activities. Split into four teams, the local Aggie boys made a creditable record: garnering one first place team with a 'tsuperior rat- ing, one second place team with a rating of superior, and two other team ratings of excellent, ln order of the above placings the teams are: Crops- Wallre Hoium, leroy Flkstrom, Ellsworth Thompson: Farm Mechanics---Gerhard Lingen, Ralph Skinner, Sid- ney Aslagsong Beef--Arvid Sylvester, Roy Berens, Or- ville Dahlsengg Dairy-Arthur Hanson, Howard Tei- gen, Ralph Brevig. The local boys competed with a variable number of teams from 141 schools. 1940 CI-IIPPEWAN Page23 Home Economics Department as- Kitchen and Dining Room A new Home Economics Department was opened this year.

A total of seventeen such films have been enjoyed by everyone. SEWING ROOM CARNIVAL One of the most lively, fun-making events of the school term took place in the school gymnasium on November 4, 1939. On that evening people from Star- buck and the surrounding territory came to enjoy themselves. Side shows, concessions and movies made it a gay and noisy scene. Prizes of value were contributed by wholesale houses through our local dealers, adding an incentive to try the many and varied amusements. Later in the evening a fine program was given by the students, which was brought to a climax with the crowning of the Carnival Queen. Each of the four classes had elected a candidate for the honor. The Seniors chose Naomi Foss, the Juniors, Betty Overson, the Sophomores, Doris E. Hagen, the Freshmen, Betty Mae Forde. All the ticket sellers worked hard for their candidates. The Seniors were victorious and Miss Naomi Foss was chosen Carnival Queen of 1940. The carnival has always been a success both finan- cially and socially. It is sponsored by the High School Athletic Association, and the proceeds are used to help defray expenses of athletics, music, and declamation. 1940 CHIPPEWAN pagegg Senior Class Play r i l Back Row-left to right-LeRoy Ekstrom, Orville Dahlseng, Doris Myking, Howard Hagen, Harriette Thorstad, Arthur Berg, Wallace Hoium, Dellora Hidem, James Moen, Sidney Aslagson.

Ullere Comes Charlie, a farce-comedy in three acts written by Jay Tobias, was given by the Junior Class, .l rirlay, November 24th. The play was coached by Miss Ellen Pakola. The following is a synopsis of the play: Larry Elli- ott. young broker, thinking he is becoming guardian of a small boy, is jolted to find he has taken a girl to raise, seventeen and pretty. Charlotte is called Char- lie. hence the error. Why the jolt? Well, Larry is en- gaged to the imperious Vivian Smythe-Kersey and is further hen-ridden by a snobbish aunt. To have an- other female in the house delights him not. Neither does it delight Vivian and the aunt. Charlie arrives from Arkansas accompanied by Uncle Aleck Twiggs. She starts calling Larry, Papa, After several mis- uncleistandings, Charlie leaves Larry to enter a finish- ing school and in a few months changes from an un- cultured hill-billy to a clever young Woman. Mean- while l.arry is surprised to find himself in love with his fosterehild, and as soon as she returns, they marry. CAST OF CHARACTERS Nora Malone . , , Lenora Berg Ufticer Tim McGrill , ..
