J. C. to present a regular school year-book for its first year portraying its first year’s activities. However, through the efforts of the Student Council this special edition of the Chinook, containing class pictures and other scenes representing activities of the school, ha.s been jmepared.

Faculty A warm friendly smile, sympathy, a sense of humor, staunch and loyal friendship, a firm belief in democracy in action, an earnest desire to develop, train, and guide the inquiring mind, stimulation of good thinking and wise living, achievement in expression and know­ ledge—^these are the qualities that make teachers memorable in the minds of students. Our instructors are aware of their responsibilitie.s a.s teachers; they are also cognizant of the spirit in which Casjjer Junior College had its inception in September of 1945—that of meeting the educational needs of Casper citizens. 3 �Biology Charles McLean, Donald Burgess, Wilma Shafto, Ella Jane Taylor, Ann Holscher, Teddy Mae Gaylord.

Humorous, salesmanship, illustrative, argumentative, and commencement speeches were given in class. A weekly radio program was presented over station KDFN in order to acquaint the public with the activities of the Junior College. These programs included round table discussions, music, interviews with members of the faculty, news-roundups of college activities, and literary reviews. 8 �On The Air Chuck Morrison, J. D.

A group of men students organized a squad that was coached by Bill Hileman. No member of this team had previous basketball experience and as the result, more exer­ cise and fun were gained than victories. A home-and-home game series was played with Scottsbluff Junior College. Besides several contests played with out-of-town independent teams, the CJC cage enthusiasts played in Casper’s independent basketball tournament. A longer season, experienced players, and an extensive schedule are assured for next year’s basketball squad. 9 �Aeronautics Front Row: George Briggs, Alvin McAllister, Marjorie Conner, Harvey Beasley, Ray­ mond Laske. Back Row: Joseph Mathison, Mildred Reasoner, Peggy Corbett, Dick Yager, Fred Miller. Officials of Casper Junior College believe that any modern higher education institution should offer specialized courses in aeronautics. As a result, the curriculum of the Junior College contains courses in flight training and aviation mechanics. Valuable aviation mechanics training equipment was given to the Junior College by the State Department of Education. This equipment was used at .Wardwell Field in the training of mechanics under the sponsorship of the Junior College. The trainees were employed as apprentices by the Casper Flying Service and took related training classes in the Junior College evening school classes. After one year of work as an apprentice the trainee became eligible to take the Civil Aeronautics Administration examination for a mechanic’s license as an engine or aircraft mechanic. 10 �Laboratory Activities 11 �Sweetheart Ball Ruth Oler, Kathleen Shoemaker, Edna Jones, Lois Dean, Dorothy Coleman. Kiss And Tell Ladora Perrin, Jack Propp, Helen Schulte, Kenneth Ury, Betty Keefe, Bob Tripeny, Harold Manorgan, Lois Dean, Dennis Sullivan. 12 �Social Activities The social activities of the Casper Junior College have been many and varied in order that all students might attend some function during the school year. Among these functions were the following highlights; a Christmas dinner dance, December 15, held at the Country Club; the first annual Sweetheart Ball, February 15, in the Rose Room of the Townsend Hotel, at which wa.s featured the crowning of the queen, Miss Edna Jones; a swimming party, April 10, in the high school pool, which was climaxed by a dance at the Campus Canteen, a ladies’ choice dance on May 5, at the clubhouse of the Isaac Walton League. A ])icnic wa.s held at Garden Creek on May 22. The conclusion of the social affairs was an achievement banquet held in the Rose Room of the Townsend Hotel on May 24, at which time the outstanding student.s were awarded scholarships for continuing their edu­ cation; and recognition was given to the members of the basketball team, student council, assembly committee, social committee and newspaper staff. Recognition was also accorded to the winners of the school song and school emblem contest, and to those who had been initiated into the Phi Theta Kappa fraternity. Dramatic Productions During the fall quarter junior college students received their first chance to display their dramatic ability when the college presented the play. Kiss and Tell. This three act comedy was the story of misunderstood youth. Constantly in and out of on-the-spot situations, the persecuted teen-agers gave Casper audiences hilarious evenings that will not soon be forgotten. The next junior college production was Blithe Spirit, an improbable farce by the English playwright Noel Coward. This comedy of rapid-fire fantasy, with its homesick ghosts, mad mediums, and eerie seances, delighted all and provoked many commendations. 13 �Girls’ Lounge The girls’ lounge serves as a meeting place for all women students who wish to relax or study in pleasant and quiet surroundings. Current magazines, comfortable chairs, divans and tables provide adequate facilities for all girls who wish to take advantage of them. The lounge is also used by the Associated Women Students for monthly meetings. General Lounge “Have a coke?’’ screams a reclining student, to the refrain of Shoo Fly Pie and Apple Pan Dowdy. At the same time an industrious student, who is seated at one of the table.s which is provided for studying, yells, “Hey, quiet there, I’m doin’ my English Comp.’’ The above conversation is characteristic of that heard daily in the general lounge. This large lounge, used by both men and women students, is equipped with four davenports, with matching chairs and end tables, and with four extra upholstered chairs, a “juke’’ box, a “coke” machine, a piano, and study facilities. 14 �Vocational Classes 15 �ACKNOWLEDGMENT We wish to express our appreciation to the following for their financial assistance in making this publication possible.
