uniors Broadcasting by Radio Station J. C., 1926. GOOD-DAY, Ladies and Gentlemen. This is station J. C. 1926. Today this station has the pleasure of presenting to you the Junior Class of the Montrose High School, one of the most noted of all groups. First, I will give you a short history of this famed or- ganization. The class was former A. D., 1923, with a membership of sixty pupils, of which thirty-five were girls, and the rest otherwise.

Its members became so bright they thought they knew more than the teachers and proceeded to show them how it was done. As a postoffice and rumor carrier it was peerless. At last this renowned organization was graduated to the posi- tion of high and dignified Juniors. This so excited some of the members that they became sick, and it was thought wise to leave them where they were. Thus With a membership decreased to forty-live pupils the class continued on its eventful career. Several individuals of the class blossomed into silver- tongued orators of world-wide fame and some others became so known for their athletic prowess that for a while the school board contemplat- ed sending them to the Olympian games in Europe.
