President Koch

"Many things are no apparent among these pages: our years of attending classes, the energies consumed in preparation for them, and many other experiences (both pleasant and unpleasant). What we do see are images of those who shared our work and our play, some of whom will be our life - long friends because of such association; and through this picture story we will be reminded in years to come of many people, situations, and experiences which would otherwise be lost to us forever. ''The year 1958-59 has been a good year at MS . I ,et u look forward to even greater co-ordination and accomplishment in the future. To the seniors we ex end our warmest regards for happiness and success. on ana Schoo} of ines will go with you throughout your fu re years."

Dean McAuliffe

"Faculty and student cooperation has been notable during the past year and class work and activities have proceeded very satisfactorily. With improvements here and there, an increasing seriousness of purpose has been evident. All together, we have had a splended year of association and I want to commend the eniors for their cooperation in making it so. "Montana School of ines has already provided you with an essential part of your training. The organizations which many of you will now join are prepared to aid in your profesional d velopment. s you commence on another road, no matter where that road may lead, I wish you good luck and much happine s along the way."

Gene Trimble Editor

Claude Pickard Associate Editor

Any year book has as its prime purpose the depiction of a school year in a manner that will recall the maximum of memories in future years. The Magma this year utilizes memories as a theme, but places a slight accent on those of the graduating seniors. Walt Enderlin, although occassionally muttering something about tests, spent a considerable amount of time and effort in obtaining the quality and type of pictures necessary for our theme. His work, with the cooperation of the student body and faculty, provided the foundation for this annual. Mel Bennett can truly call the sports section his own. After an initial conference, he took complete charge of his section and did an excellent job. Another outstanding s t a ff member was Jim McLaughlin. Regardless of the time, whether it was evenings or weekends,

Jim McLaughlin · Business Manager

STAFF Jim was available and took up much of the slack which developed in other sections. His work as Business Manager was lightened by having two energetic Ad Salesmen - Richard Herndon and John Bennett. Claude Pickard did a fine job as Associate Editor. He provided some sound advice and a considerable amount of work-particularly when our deadline for press approached. To Mrs. Nile goes our sincere thanks for her advice, and tireless work on the photography. The cooperation and effort of EVERYONE on this year's staff made the job of Editor both interesting and enjoyable ... My sincere thanks to all of them. If this annual provides many memories-and perhaps a few chuckles-of your campus life at MSM, then our purpose has been accomplished.

Students and faculty were saddened May 17, 1959, to learn of the death of Gary Alexander, Senior student in Metallurgy. Those who knew and worked with Gary will feel a deep loss: his esprit de corps, his sincerity, and his warm friendliness build a memory for all to hold dear. Tragedy struck Mr. Alexander in a mountain climbing accident near Whitehall, Montana; his degree, however, has been granted with his class of 1959 and will be awarded posthumously.

Student Council

From left to right: Richard Vincelette, Delegate; Gus Coolidge, Secretary; Donald Roberts, Delegate; Robert Wylie, President; Richard Roberts, Vicepresident; and Richard Banghart, Student Manager.

The Student Council, composed of the officers and executive committee of the Associated Students of Montana School of Mines, functions as a coordinating organization between faculty and students. It has the responsibility of general supervision over extra-curricular campus activities, the allotment of student funds, the preservation of campus traditions, and the promotion of student affairs. Projects which this year's council helped complete were the Student Health Insurance plan, and the allocation of rooms in the Student Union Building. The organization of M-Day activities is an annual enterprise of the council.

Who's Who

Left to right: Lilburn Lueck, George Maxwell, Alfred Trimble, Donald Corson, Richard Roberts, Robert Wylie.

The above six were the Montana School of Mines electees to "Who's Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities." Candidates for this honor are selected from seniors who are eligible for graduation in June. The method of selection is that the heads of the degree-granting departments, the registrar, and the student body president are asked to submit to the Dean names of seniors who they believe are qualified for nomination. Those receiving the highest number of votes are nominated. In order to be considered for this honor a student must show evidence of the following qualities: Excellence and sincerity of scholarship, leadership and participation in extracurricular and academic activities, citizenship and service to the school, and promise of future usefulness to business and society. 65

Cheerleaders: Gwen Chris eno, Gail Madeen, Billi Todd, S n i M ddock

Football ---------------------

THE MSM FOOTBALL SQUAD FOH 1958-LEFT to RIGHT, FRONT ROW: John Frisbie, Brad Bilyeu, Frank Gardner, Mohamed Moshin, Jerry Bloke, Lynn Waters, Jay Thompson, Bill Tiddy, Pete Sakellaris, Al Walkup. CENTER ROW: Kelly Hemmert, Bill Halvorson, Bcb Kirk, Jim Vercella, Charles Conlan, Cam Brown, Ron Nordwick, Mike Keegan, John Engstrom, Dan McCarthy-assistant coach. BACK ROW: Dick Banghart, Pete Atkinson, Dan Roviq, Mike Hines, Dave Del Poggio, Dart Davis, Lee Nordahl, Al Mondlak and Coach Ed Sirnonich.

Spirit and determination characterized the 1958 edition of the Montana School of Mines football team. Coach Ed Simonich, working with 23 or less players, often found it impossible to conduct regular practices. Several players had little or no previous experience. Some had played Canadian football, which is much different from football in the United States. The only regulars back from the previous year were Al Walkup, Dart Davis and Kelly Hemmert. Because of scholastic commitments and lack of thletic scholarships, the Oredigqers found it difficult to compete with other schools in the conference. The Miners, playing only five conference games, were defeat d by deeper and more experienced teams. Because of the lack of depth, experience and weight, the young Oredigger team w greatly hindered in its efforts. To show that they never q it, the Orediggers played their best game of the season ainst Northern, their last opponent of the year. 93

With only two monogram winners from the previous year, the Oredigger' s basketball squad made a very good showing in the Montana Collegiate Conference. The Orediggers did not start rolling until the middle of the season, but from then on the team was a real threat to all opponents. Western, the conference champions, came from behind in the final seconds of play to edge the Miners in the last game between the two schools. The Orediggers won two of their last three home games, defeating Eastern and Carroll. All members of the team, with the exception of Mel Bennett, should return next season to make the Orediggers a definite threat for the conference championship. 98

Hockey

THE 1958-59 HOCKEY TEAM-FRONT ROW, LEFT to RIGHT: John Schulhauser, Doug Boehme, Mike Maddocks, Sid Brown, George Bronson, Steve Keddie and Larry Katcher. BACK ROW: Al Lindquist, William Hutton, Dart Davis, Darrel Reid, Harry Greenberg, Jack Hunter, Garry Swanson, Pete Atkinson, Lynn Waters, Ron Nordwick and Coach Jack Leary.

Hockey is a very popular sport in Butte and especially at the School of Mines. Each year the boys from Canada work up plenty of enthusiasm for their national sport and the School of Mines turns out a colorful and scrappy team. Mainly because of lack of funds, not talent, the pucksters were able to play only one intercollegiate game this year. They lost this one to an extremely good Montana State University team composed of top-flight Canadian amateurs.

Intramural Sports The extensive intramural program, that was launched last year, continued this year with renewed vigor. Coach Simonich has greatly increased the chances for everyone to play some type of sport. This year intramurals were held in table tennis, badminton, handball, basketball, bowling, weightlifting, and volleyball.
