First out was a stocky well-built chap, who, is apparently acting as chau feur, but with the definite characteristics of a Chicago gangster. The car’s back-seat occupant is a tall, swarthy looking gentleman. Cn a second look v.e see that they e„e, our ole class mates, Albert Van de Y op anti Herman Boumans himself. From some of the more reliable rumors v;c hear that after production of a few cars for hi .’self, he is going to turn the pi- nt over to the production of 1:1s new invention, jet-propelled caterpillars. . fter a fe- nods to some old acquaintances, the two proceed into the newly ouilt skyscraper, now housing the main office of the powerful newspaper syndicate owned and operated by Mrs. Marilyn Orvis, who after raising se-.en strapping boys and only one good crop of wheat in the p st twenty years cecided that sh would like something a little more inciting. Oh yes, the ninety story building previously mentioned ..as designed and built by the Agree Monroe Construction Company. Agnes, another old cla.sraate, upon making her third million decided in coing something for the ole ho’ie town, the skyscraper was her endowment.. After reminising a few hours, Marilyn noticed that she was out of Twenty Strikes, a new brand of cigaretts, and asked Boumans if he would drive her uj to the Co-op where she could purchase someuore. Upon arrival they meet Ralph Orr and Agnes Monroe talking over the pirns for a new store which by the -ay, is to cover two full clocks and feature an all glass front. After making the purernse, they all pile into the car end proceed to look up the res. of the class. It is cec'dcd .hat they should next go to the. scene of their twelve years of d udgery. .As we arrive, Alby rubs his eyes in astonishment for what should he see but a football sta.ium, unequaled even by the Rose Bowl, in the stadium we see a tall man with thinning hair and - ha r.'ed look upon his face. It is 3ill -right, cla.'S of ’48, who is now football coach and Fnglish instructor. V.iile talking with Bill, we ha pen to drift upon the subject on Mr. Ivans this conversation ends pretty sadly when we ltarn tlat our old Prof. has Ion; since passed away, this cue to an extreme mental e'.cpse shortly after May in 1948.

Fvans. This is an elective group elected by the vote of the entire student body from nominees elected by each class at the beginning of each school ye:r. In September Jim Tidyraan was elected president, Tom Briden, Vic-presidcnt, Donald Wentworth, secretary treasurer, and Jo Ann Aiken freshman representative . The council was handicapped this year in the activity due to the absence of two members, Jim Tidyman and Don Wentworth. The major work of the year was the council of which Tom Briden was Carnival Chairman. The council also set prices for the basketball and football admissions and sponsored the national School Assembly programs. Boys Glee Club Boys glee club was organized early in the school year with a fairly good enrollment but as the days went by they began to drop out whether or not they couldn’t stand it, we don’t know. Neil Kovatch and Don Wentworth who sing second tenor entertain the students between numbers with duets or by telling jokes. Albert Van de Kop, Glenn Culleton, Dave YTall, Jim Tidyman sing 1st tenor, but Albert and Jim drown out the other two. The front row contains the base singers, Donald Lightner, Charles Van de Kop, Kayne Dean, Bob Parker, Marion Wolstad, Tim Brophy, but still LIr. Guthrie is always asking for ’’more base „ more base. Their first public performance was at the dedication of the stage. The numbers they sang were Starding in the Need of Prayer,’’ and Battle Hymn of the Re ublic. . Girls Glee Club Dorothy Christiaens, Delores Henneman, Pat Cronk, Janet Kingston, Ruth Russell, and Betty Myhre compose the girls sextette. The girls glee club is accompanied by Rita Geiger: the sextette by Helen Pauli. The thrity-five voice mixed chorus has participated in several public performances this year, and is also accompanied by Helen Pauli. The music library lias been enlarged this year. BAND Harold Guthrie has organized a hand of 43 members who are mostly grade children and a Tew high school students of whom most are beginners. The parents of the children in the coir unity have supported the band generously in buying instruments for their children. With their instruments it wa3 possible to ret a fairly well balanced band. The band hones to purchase uniforms next year with the money taken in by selling cokes and candy at ball games. The band has made fine progress and promises to be much better in future years. As in previous years the Pep Club was again organized at the beginning of the year and decided that those trying out for cheer leaders would do so in front of the teachers and student body. About eight tried out and those elected were Darleen Einbody, Ruth Russell and Dolores Ilenneman by a vote of the entire high school. Dressed in gold skirts and purple sweaters the leaders attended most of the tournament games. Ihe Pep Club sold hot dogs, candy and pop at both football games a number oftir.es, and basketball games. The tumbling class of 1947-48 have tumbled at the following towns: Cut Bank, Browning, and Valier. Following consists of girls tumbling and how many years each have tumbled: Dessa Hale, 2 years; Louise Hancock, 2 years; Jennie Lou Olson, 2 years; Darleen Embody, 2 years; 'iheresa Boumans, 2 years; Helen Stoltz, 2 years; Janet Knf-ston, 2 years; Marlyn Duncan, 4 years; Jo Ann Aiken, 1 year; bolores Hennenan, 1 year; Dorothy Johnson, 1 year; Boatrice brophy, 1 year; Wanda Cronk, 2 years; Lois KJose, 1 year; Joy Welch, 2 years; and Ruth Russell, 3 years.
