Mary Ann Weiske Advisors Mr. Constance, L. A. Kiger The year 1944 welcomed sixty green Freshmen into Montello High school. Now, as seniors, we number forty-one. Al- though we were Montello’s largest Fresh- man class we were customarily frightened and stayed in our own small corner until after initiation. As sophomores we took great joy in initiating the Freshmen. Then came our Junior year and the prom. The date for this occasion was set for April 18, 1947. Our theme was Blue Hawaii, with music furnished by Tom Temple and his orchestra. The gym was beautifully decorated with colored lights, a blue sky, flowers and palm trees. Darwin Bell reigned as prom king and Mary Ann Weiske as queen. Choosing our class rings, and the Junior-Senior banquet added much pleasure. After three years of hard work we finally obtained the privilege of being called Seniors. Senior pictures were taken at the beginning of the school year, and everyone seemed quite satisfied with them. Other events were the Junior-Senior banquet. Senior trip. Commencement, the Alumni Ban- quet, and the Senior class play, The Inner Willy.

JUNIOR CLASS Four new students joined our ranks this year. They were Wilma Disbrow, Lois Eckerle, Adeline Hillmer, and Gene Pierson. Albert Heller, who had been with us for the two preceding years, dropped out. We received our class rings on January 6, which was a big event for all of us. With the advice of Miss Gibbons and Mr. Whirry, the Junior Class chose for its Prom theme, I'm Always Chasing Rainbows. The gala affair was held on April 16, with Gradon Arendsee as our king, and his queen-elect Adeline Hillmer reigning.
