I ara iZJM- ftcmeez. WINIFRED HIGH SCHOOL Winifred, Montana Dedication MR. HENRY We the Seniors of 1953 dedicate this Annui 1 THE PIONEER to our loyal friend and teacher who has shown his unselfish co- operation in helping us to make a fine year book. Principal’s Message I wish to congratulate the class of '53 on the produc- tion of this fine year book. It is the result of much planning and hard work. The students and teachers of the Winifred School will ever be appreciative to your class and advisor for making this annual possible. In years to come we will be able to open the pages of this book and relive, in memory, our days at school. To those who are not directly associated with the school, this book, with its pictures and stories, will give you a birds-eye view of life as it exists within its walls. Best wishes Theodore M.

Lew is town, Montana Senior Mistory In the fall of '49 13 freshmen began four of the happiest years of their lives. The class consisted of Norman Asbjornson, Betty Arthur, Jean Dracon, John Dracon, Evelyn Car- son, Tom Econom, Vern Fyand, Diane Heller, Hilton Hess, Lucille Simac, Marjorie Smith, Norman Strand and Wayne Tafolla. As we entered our Sophomore year, we lost Vern Fyant, Wayne Tafolla, Jean and John Dracon, and at the same time gaining Bill Carr. In our Junior Year, Betty Arthur left us at the end of the first semester, finishing high school in three years. Our Junior Play was entitled The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come. Our prom theme was Oriental Gardens. Now as we begin our final year we realize its importance. We lost one of-our classmates, and acquired another one. Diane Heller transferred to Denton High School, and Leila Moir transferred from Fergus County High School, to join our Senior class. Now that we are nearly through with our High School education we want to thank all of the people who made it possible for us to get such a fine start in life.

Marjorie Smith wills the Royboys to the Senior girls of next year. She wills Lovers Hill to Betty Fuller. Norman Strand wills his circles on the airport to George Econom.

EFFIE PEARSON--our class secretary--is well known as Mildred in Rest Assured , and her ability to sing, Old Pine Tree. JIM SAWYER--our class president. Take a look at the notches on Jim's comb- each stands for the broken heart of one of his many girl friends...
