PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
In a democratic society such as ours it is the privilege of every
boy and girl to obtain twelve years of education at Public Expense.
It is the responsibility of every boy and girl in a society such
as ours to take advantage of these educational opportunities which are
available to them.
It Is well to remember that when privileges are abused it is
possible for the privilege itself to be lost.
It is my hope that each and everyone of you are using to the best
advantage,the privilege which has been accorded to you,by the citizens
of our community, In this school of ours.
I wish you every success in your academic endeavors, and it is my
prayer that you find it possible to follow the vocation or profession
which you have chosen, so that the contributions you make to society
throughout your life, will repay in part, the sacrifices which others
have made for you.

VAIEDICTORY
by MUTSUKO FURUSE
WE, the Class of '53, are about to consummate
twelve years of school association.
Here, in the sanctuary of High School, we were
taught; now we must teach ourselves, tony of us came
to Coaldale High from other schools, other provinces
and even other countries. Among us are students of
different races and of many nationalities. Nevertheless,
here, we are gathered as one class, pursuing a
common goal-to seek truth,to glean knowledge, and to
develop an understanding of life.As our forebearers
have done and as our successors shall have to do, we
too, must carry high the banners of our school. It
will now be our privilege and duty to help make our
nation a better place in which to live.
(
Writing up the minutes,
our Secretary of 1956,
1957& '58 is very neat.
Ih an oratofcical contest in
1956 she could not be beat.
8ur school years can be divided into three books.
Book One consisting of the elementary grades, Book
Two--Junior High, and Book Three--High School. Each
of these books contain chapters. It was throughout
these chapters that we learned and put into action
the spirit of good sportsmanship. It was also here
that we learned to respect the rights, not only of
the individual, but of the community and of the
country.
1 believe that if we want to know where our
happiness or where our usefulness lies, we will have
to analyze frankly our own weaknesses. We may make
mistakes,but if we are willing to learn and to profit
by these mistakes and to ever press forward towards
a worthy goal, then our dreams may become a reality
and life a useful thing. It is tnen we can offer our
gift to society; it may be as a teacher, a minister,
a journalist, a doctor, or an engineer.
It is a great privilege to be one of the graduates
to pass through these halls of learning. I
hope that we may be worthy of the faith and the
trust placed in us by our parents and our teachers.
c
In the words of Shakespeare, "Parting Is such
sweet sorrow". And so, we bid farewell to Coaldale
High School.

STUDENTS® UNION REPORT
by Edward Richai'ds
1957-58 has been. & busy school year for the StudentsQ Uniong the executive and the various committees whelk enable the Students’ Union to function smoothlyo
One of the first major changes made was the decision to print a yearbook again thia year instead of ©very fourth year as in the paste Pages will be added to this yearbook again next- year the emphasis being on the graduating class each year*
The Students’ Union has been rather active pertaining to sports this year* We purchased new basketball uniforms for both the girls’ and boys’ senior teamsc A challenge trophy was also purchased for the second event of the High School Ben- spielo
As ammoadrasat to the Constitution was made by the student bodyj, stating that ia case a vacancy arose in one of the offices of the executives before January 31st e an election ofuld be held to fill the vacancy,, and after January 31sts it would be left to the discretion of the executive either to appoint aomesody or to call an election,.
Rings were ordered for those desiring them, however crests were not ordered this year since they were last yearo Function cards were ones again discussed at soma length6 and a plan was drawn up of a proposed card* However9 in view of a number of disadvantagesp function cards were not adopted*
On a recommendation made lest year8 this year’s Prom Queen was chosen by student
vote rather than by judging. This system proved highly satisfactory o
In March a letter was received from the Chamber of Commerce requesting representation from the Students Union at their meetings concerning the need for a Civic Centre for Coaldale*
And that is a brief summary of what the Students’ Union did in 1957-58*
YEARBOOK REPORT
by Rudy Kaethler
In auruznn at a general assembly the Students’ Union instigated a yearbook in order to have a continuous presentation of students and their activities* To achieve this purpose a fundamental or basic book was to be published this year, thus allowing pages to b® added in succeeding terms* The Intercollegiate Press Inc* Representative s Mr* "Gy" Brown„ gave us this idea with a correspondingly low-priced contracto
In the first few meetings,, after the staff was set ups we planned the general composition of Milestones* Sine® we wore able to obtain individual pictures of all the students quit© early„ we had only to worry about group and candid pictures* However,, the problem solved itself when Carl offered to take group pictures and a camera contest was planned to get candids* Carl Nlshimuras Gary Hadford and Ray Shims took the prizes in that order* A sales competition between the room salesman was won by Leonard Vaselenak of the Twelve A room* In dedicating MILESTONES to Mr* Ro Jo Baldry„ we attempted to further your community awareness at the sametime showing our appreciation to
Mr, Baldry for the many years of
servlcs to Coaldale»
The years will tell the
failure , or success of our
attempt5 ...however» a show ofap--.
predation is due to the group
of workers who fashioned MILS-STONES,,
Mr Baldwin, Carl Ni-shimuras
George Horner and Varner
Paetkau helped carry the
brunt of the load, Judy Jacobsen
did a fine job ,of campaigning
for- subscribers and Jacob

ANNUAL REPORT ON THE ’BW
George Horner Mutsuko Kuruse
In carrying on a tradition
of many years6 the Students’ Union
this term again undertook to
sponsor our High School Newspaper;,
the BUGLET This undertaking
has again proven to he a
success8 as facts seem to indicate
,
It can be safely said that
the BUGLE=staff has done a good
job in providing the students
with e, newspaper which contained
materiel of acceptable quality
Even . though this seemed not to
be the case at the outset of the
term, when th® staff had a
little trouble in getting the
"ball rolling", indications
around the middle of the term
were that the BUGLE was goad
enough to gain the praise of
some of our teachers and even
teachers of*- other schools who
read the BUGLE.
ThiSj, of course, is due
largely to the work of the BUGLE
sfcaff members and resa reporters,
to whoa we would like to
express bur thanks for the coop
aration rec eired,,
But much of th© credit goes
to the teaching-staff members-who
enabled us to use the fact
lilies of the school in prepar-lag
th© BUGLE® Mr-, Baldwin, who
spent hours in checking reports
and getting them typed and
printede deserves special mention,
as does Mr, Solberg, who
greatly helped us in connection
with contributions to our Easter
Issue,,
As, this report is being
written, preparations are underway
for a final giant--size issue
of the BUGLE.,, and in anticipation
of the outcome of this pro-jest,
we would Ilk© to express
our thanks to those who will
give us their cooperation, Also
from the rest of the staff,, we
wish good luck and success to
next year’s IKJGLS-staff ®

Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B0→K∗0γ )/B(B0s→φγ ) and the directCP asymmetry inB 0→K∗0γ
The ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0→K⁎0γ and B0s→ϕγ has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7TeV. The value obtained is
B(B0→K⁎0γ)B(B0s→ϕγ)=1.23±0.06(stat.)±0.04(syst.)±0.10(fs/fd),
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is associated with the ratio of fragmentation fractions fs/fd. Using the world average value for B(B0→K⁎0γ), the branching fraction B(B0s→ϕγ) is measured to be (3.5±0.4)×10−5.
The direct CP asymmetry in B0→K⁎0γ decays has also been measured with the same data and found to be
ACP(B0→K⁎0γ)=(0.8±1.7(stat.)±0.9(syst.))%.
Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations
Families of Baker domai
La dinámica asociada a la iteración de una función racional genera una partición de la esfera de Riemann en dos conjuntos, el de normalidad (o el conjunto de Fatou) y su complemento (el conjunto de Julia). Los dominios propios del conjunto de Fatou pueden además clasificarse en cinco tipos de acuerdo a su modelo dinámico local, a decir en dominios atractores, súperatractores, parabólicos, de rotación tipo Siegel o tipo Herman. Al considerar la extensión de la teoría de iteración racional para funciones meromorfas transcendentes, surgen dos nuevas clases de dominios del conjunto de Fatou: los dominios de Baker y los dominios errantes. Un dominio de Baker se caracteriza por estar directamente relacionado con la singularidad esencial en infinito de la función meromorfa transcendente, pues dicho punto pertenece a la frontera del dominio. En este caso el punto al infinito es llamado punto de Baker.
Las funciones complejo-valuadas que son analíticas excepto en un conjunto compacto contable de la esfera, son denominadas funciones meromorfas de clase K. La extensión de la teoría de iteración para la clase K fue recientemente formalizada a mediados de la década de 1990 y existen resultados análogos a la teoría Fatou-Julia en este contexto (por ejemplo, la clasificación de los dominios de Fatou realizada por funciones meromorfas transcendentes también es realizada por funciones en K).
En este trabajo, se estudia una subclase de funciones de clase K de la forma z+exp(g(z)), con g una función meromorfa transcendente o racional. Para estas funciones se demuestra que, bajo ciertas condiciones de crecimiento en vecindades de las singularidades esenciales, cada una de las singularidades es un punto de Baker y tiene asociado un número infinito de dominios de Baker invariantes. Además se demuestra que el modelo dinámico local en cada dominio es semi-conjugado a una translación. El trabajo se complementa con el estudio dinámico de una familia uniparamétrica de funciones en K, estableciendo para ciertos casos la conectividad de los dominios de Baker. Este y otros ejemplos presentados en la tesis resultan ser los primeros en la literatura del área de funciones en la clase K que exhiben dominios de Baker
When Seve met Bregovi?: folklore, turbofolk and the boundaries of Croatian musical identity
Popular music in Croatia has consistently been a field where the boundaries of national cultural identity are set, contested and transgressed. The most contentious boundaries involve Serbian culture and the abstract “east”, to which essentialized nationalist concepts of Croatian culture denied any similarity. The Croatian singer Severina’s attempt to represent Croatia at the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest with her song Moja štikla (My stiletto) called these aspects into question with connotations which could be claimed as both Croatian and Serbian. Although the song was justified with reference to the (disputed) authenticity of Croatian folklore, it ultimately suggested that Croatian cultural space could not be separated from that of the other ex-Yugoslav states
Springdale, Leavenworth County
Baker, Zach, “Springdale, Leavenworth County,” Chapman Center Research Collections, https://ccrsresearchcollections.omeka.net/items/show/3.The author describes the life of an early Irish Catholic settlement in eastern Kansas. Originally a Quaker community, Irish immigration "exploded" there just after the Civil War, eventually stamping the town with a particular religious culture. After railroads made the Fort Riley mail road obsolete, Springdale declined. St. Thomas Catholic Church was a vital center for decades
Quantum Entanglement in Top Quark Pair Production
Top quarks, the most massive particles in the standard model, attract
considerable attention since they decay before hadronizing. This presents
physicists with a unique opportunity to directly investigate their properties.
In this letter, we expand upon the work of G. Iskander, J. Pan, M. Tyler, C.
Weber and O. K. Baker to demonstrate that even with the most massive
fundamental particle, we see the same manifestation of entanglement observed in
both electroweak and electromagnetic interactions. We propose that the thermal
component resulting from protons colliding into two top quarks emerges from
entanglement within the two-proton wave function. The presence of entanglement
implies the coexistence of both thermal and hard scattering components in the
transverse momentum distribution. We use published ATLAS and CMS results to
show that the data exhibits the expected behavior.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
