groans of agony were heard from
the room where Kenny Manicke was
taking his weekly {2) bath. To his
amazement the door was locked
from the outside. After handing
tools through a ventilator to him,
Ken's family watched with inter-

Did you see the poem the two
Junior girls wrote about their class
mates? Something like this:
Fred was a fool
When | went to school
And Pat was sap
Cuz his mouth always capped
And Frank was a crank
But Elton thought he knew all
Cuz he heard the birds call
And Jim was SO small
That he had to crawl
And Don was the smartest of all
Although they signed his master
piece
With Oliver Goldsmith's name.

was Lenore Powell and Betty Jean

In Retrospect-196O
(Senior Snapshots

On page 8 of my snapshot al
bum, found a picture of Bud Oy
lear which was taken way back in
1910 when Bud was secretary of the
senior class. Naturally, Bud was
smiling in the picture. and it surely
made me remember his innate good
humor. / don't think | ever knew
Bud when he wasn't in friendly,
optimistic mood
Buds height of 611 and his blue
eyes and blonde hair made him very
popular with the girls, although
sometimes think Bud didn't APP
preciate their patronage.
Since his father sold cars, Buds
pastime, hobby,--in fact | should
say, his main interest-Was auto
mobiles. never think of Bud with
out thinking of the many times
used to ride from school with him in
one Of his fathers cars, and / often
wonder why he never started a
taxi service.
| always admired and secretly
envied Buds calm, cool manner and
the ease with which he accomplished
most of the things he set out to do.
With little effort, he managed to
receive good grades through most
of his high school career.
All in all, / think that | remem-
Der Bud mostly for his quiet, good
natured disposition, which rarely
changed and which made him one OF
the best-liked persons in Libby
High.
As turned the pages once more
in my ragged old snapshot album
picture OF Raymond Rubard caught
and held my attention. They say
that Ray is one of our outstanding
foreign diplomats today and when
/ remember how very diplomatic
Raymond was about getting in the
Snapshots for the l940-41 annual
can well believe the excellent re-
ports circulating about him,
All through high school Raymond
was prominent in any activities re-
quiring hard kork. His foresight
and initiative helped to make the
Rose Room Promenade" the sue
cessful venture that it was. AS
senior vice president, and head OF
the photography department on the
Annual, Raymond did very fine
job.
One of the first Juniors to assume
the responsibility of editing the
Tamarack, Raymond proved per-
fectly capable of the responsibility
As a member of Quill and Scroll, In
ternational Society of Journalism,
Raymond has been faithful worker
on the Tamarack staff.
An active participant in class
plays, Rays various character por-
traits will never be forgotten. From
his Characterization of the dyspeptic
ogre to the German landlord in
Early to Bed, Early to Rise he
also played a part in the 1910 Hi
Jinx stage show.
Therefore, judging from his past
prominence and the amazing flex-

Do You Have
tuberculosis

That has been the question which
doctors have answered by Mana
tou tests and X-rays. However in
the last few years many high school
students of Libby have been given
these tests free of charge The mon
ey for this treatment is derived from
the well-known tuberculosis seals.
The least We. who have benefited
from them. can do is to buy few
seals and in that way pass on this
great advantage to others.
