eighty freshmen were transported to Lubrecht where they were welcomed by "Swede’s” fine cooking. Two days were spent at Paul Bunyan contests, orientation, and getting acquainted. A barbecue by Monk Dejarnette climaxed the outing. The Club was faced with what seemed an impossible task during Fall Quarter; the Foresters' Ball was scheduled for October 23 and 24, which gave the wood ticks only three weeks after school started to get it set up. Chief Push Jim Moorhouse, along with his committee men, really started "makin’ hay" and did the impossible by pro­ ducing one of the biggest, best and most profitable Foresters’ Balls ever given. My special thanks to Jim and every man who worked on the Ball. Only foresters could do something like that. Vice-president Dave Morton arranged a very interesting series of programs this year as was reflected by the excellent club meeting attendance. Respectfully, JAY BERTINO

FORESTERS' BALL

FORTY-THIRD ANNUAL FORESTERS' BALL REPORT Since about 1915 the Foresters’ Ball has grown from a small school dance to a campus social affair. At the time when there was no "Forestry School” and forestry classes were held in what is now Cook Hall, there were two types of forestry students. Since the school was for Forest Service personnel who wanted to increase their knowledge, there were two-year men and four-year men— those who already had some experience and those who were relatively new to the business. Each year these two factions alternated in sponsoring a dance. One year the Shorthorns, the two-year men, put on the dance; the next year the "Longhorns” tried to out-do them. Getting bigger and better each year, the dance started to attract people from across campus. The Foresters voted to open it to the public, started charging admission, and the annual Foresters’ Ball was underway. With growing crowds more room was soon needed, and the Ball moved to the Men s Gym, apparently to stay. However, in 1955 it again moved— this time to the MSU Fieldhouse where it has remained. This raove was brought about by over-capacity crowds and administration pressure. The themes from year to year have varied with the whims of the Chief Push— from a Paul Bunyan atmos­ phere to that of Pecos Bill. Many changes have taken place since the first Balls, aside from the location and size of crowds. At one time firearms were displayed openly and heard publicly (blanks of course) until some would-be gunman blew »hole in one of the basketball backboards. Since then guns have been checked at the door. Since many of the foresters in the old school were older men, and University regulations did not frown so heavily on alcohol, the earlier Balls were somewhat damp. Since the advent of "prohibition however, most of the succeeding Balls Mve been relatively dry. This year the Foresters’ Ball (our forty-third) was built around "Glory Days of Logging” with an atmos­ phere of the old logging camps in the Northwest. The decorations featured a log chute to announce dances, d'splays of old and new logging equipment, the ever present Bar and cookshack, and of course the Can-Can

Due to the time of year (October instead of the usual February or March) we did not have time for the usual beard contest this year, but those attending participated in a costume contest with suitable prizes being “Warded. . H. R. Dix was our guest of honor, accepting our gratitude to Anaconda Company for the help they have IP'tn to the previous Foresters’ Balls. Negotiating with the Fieldhouse through a new contract whereby we paid to the University 2 0 % of our gross ticket sales plus janitor fees, we managed to clear $ 8 6 3 . 2 5 after our bills, etc. were all paid. This amount e a(lded to the Forestry Club Loan Fund for future use. A|l >n all the Ball seemed to be a success with enjoyment by all and little or no complaint from any corner. Respectfully, JIM MOORHOUSE

19 TRFF There were a lot of trees and a lot of help, but not much time. However, when the /"'I |"l—r| N | Ball was ready to go up, the trees were there. Under the guidance of Gary Kuiper, kj I II I N \J the fellows worked hard. Some hardly worked.

CONVO The convo centered upon a satire of the jacked up athletic fees. Background music was supplied by Guy and the Gasooba, the Foresters Jug Band, and a varied .assortment of weapons. The highlight of the evening came after the grand fina e when one of the boys got a little trigger happy and opened the front curtain without pulling the draw ropes.

24 INTRAMURAL SPORTS

The 1959-60 Timber Jocks generally (and I mean generally) have made a good show­ ing in all intramural sports. That is, sports for which our roster was turned in. The football team was bolstered by one of the biggest front walls in our intramural history. An extremely fleet (?) backfield also came through when needed. In the TIMBER JOCKS: B o tto m , Kent Meek, Dick Welch, Forrest regular season, the boys, using the principle Billings, Don Heiser, Art Tower. Middle, Joe Remick, Armond Joyce, Gene DeBruin, Sam Rost, Gerald Parker. Top, Andy of the flying wedge, managed to place sec­ Cieair, Phil Nash, Jack Schield, Bob Storch, Bob Bosworth. ond in their league. In tournament play they tore through their first game with giant strides (it was a bye); the second game was lost to a very inferior bunch of frat rats. The Forester vs. Lawyer basketball game was an unfortunate incident. The legal beagles were in unusually good shape. They won. They used the platoon system to wear down our meager forces. The volley ball team made an excellent showing during the regular season, coming out in first place in their league. They became uncoordinated during tournament play and lost their first game.

The basketball team was mediocre for this season. Although they were superior in height and weight they weren’t able to make it through tournament play. The bowling team, well, they didn’t do too good. They finished the season in fifth place in a field of six teams. Add those scores again, Meek.” At the time of printing, softball, golf, track, and tennis were not completed. Un­ doubtedly they will make a very good show­ ing in these sports as the Foresters have in all other sports. Respectfully, D O N HEISER

28 The Forestry Club was offered $200 by the M.S.U. Rodeo Club to put up and take down the chutes, gates, etc. for the Intercollegiate Rodeo which was held during Spring Quarter. Another $100 was offered for assistance during the events. An investment of $10 was made in the wild steer scramble which the Club won two out of three times. The result was a nice little profit of $310 to aid the fellows going to the A.W.F.C.

Diggin’ a post hole.

With so many silk addicts on campus, the inevitable happened. A para­ chute club was formed. Foresters, of course, were enthusiastic, especially the students who had smoke jumped during the summer. Supervised training was followed by five static line jumps and then ree falling for those who wanted to. There were quite a few non- smokejumpers who completed the training, including one girl.

29 During Winter Quarter, the Forestry Club had the privilege of hearing and discussing the occupational opportunities offered by five private lumber firms. Representatives of the companies, as pictured above, were: E. Corrick, Anaconda; Carl Hakenson, Diamond National; Milton VanCamp, Intermountain; George Raymond, Northern Pacific; R. D. Griffith, St. Regis. During the course of the same meeting, Dean Williams presented the Club with a plaque in memorium of Gary Williams. An informative sign to be placed on the high wheels or logging wheels was also presented to Jay Bertino, Forestry Club President.
