We have attempted to produce a book that will be more complete, more meaningful, and will convey a better picture of our school and its activities than any previous one. It is the hope of the Senior Class that you enjoy this book as much as We do. .l l.l Principal's Page The distributing of the Acta is the closing act of your public school life. This portion of your life has, we hope, been a happy period. If the school has been as it should have been, you have enjoyed your schooling. Commencement is a new beginning.

Every student who has occasion to go into the office is always assured of courteous attention. We thank you, Helen. Page Eleven Page Twelve Class History TIME MARCHES ON l-1936-37 As freshmen we came 103 strong to venture into a world of new experiences. That year Mr. Ira Thomas, a baseball scout, visited our school and told us that in our midst there might be a second Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig. We became hopeful. Our first social event was a coasting party held on Chenango Street, with refreshments being served later at the schoolhouse. Under the guidance of Mrs. Highhouse and Mr. Birchard we succes- fully ended our freshman year with a class picnic at Quaker Lake. TIME MARCHES ON I-1937-38 As sophomores we had the opportunity of seeing how we must have appeared the previous September. I dare say most of us enjoyed it. There was a change in the faculty this year. Miss Miller, Miss Frear, and Mrs. James joined the ranks, teaching in the Home Economics, French and Latin departments respectively. The spring box social proved an exciting as well as profitable evening. TIME MARCHES ON I-1938-39 Another change in the faculty was made, Miss McEntire replacing Miss Frear as head of the French department and also as the Girls' Basketball coach. At the close of school we succeeded in having a party to which the Seniors were invited, and to the music of the Swanky Swingstersj' our up and coming young orchestra, both classes claimed a delightful time. TIME MARCHES ON I-1939-40 At last the Senior year arrived, finding our class decreased to 65. This year we had our pictures for the Acta taken at the school instead of at Binghamton so that We could cut down on our Senior ex- penses. To keep in the spirit of the winter season we had a skating party at the Montrose Lake in February. We found, much to our amazement, that we had some very fancy ' skaters among the members of our class. And so, another class, another farewell, but may the years bring forth even greater accomplishment in the Montrose High School than we have seen during our high school days. Introduction to Classes h school students In eleven such buses sixty-seven per cent of our hig . arrive each day.

Page Thirty-om Sewing Class gc 'llhirt y-two During the past two years an opportunity has been given more ot' our high school students to take Home Economics. Since some of the girls who wish to learn how to sew are unable to take the regular course an arrangement is offered whereby they are able to sew during their free periods. At present, there are 15 girls who have elected this course. These girls, in addition to making clothes for themselves, have made clothes for their mothers and little sisters. ART CLASS Sin cc we are extremely crowded for classroom space, it has been necessary to convert the lunch room into a Works for art. hop ln this class the students work inde- pendently while learning such things as weaving, painting, pen and ink work, fash- ion designing, hooked rug making, em- broidery, mechanical drawing, and the method of making artificial flowers. Since C. Deen adopted, many have been given an opportunity to show their talent along artistic lines and to develop their natural abilities. this course h-ts l WINNING A POLE-VAULT RECORD Page Thirty-thrcm x Senior Tri-Hi-Y Reading left to right.

The hilarious comedy, t'I'll lieave lt to You, kept the audience amused and in suspense until the end. Mrs. Dermott, the mother of five children, suddenly found herself after her husband's death, practically penniless. Daniel Davis, who was considered a wealthy bachelor, came from South America only to find them a pretty hopeless lot. He told them that his doctor had given him only three years to live and at the end of that time to the one who had made the most for himself and the family name, he would leave his entire fortune. When Faith Crombie, l'lolJby's fiancee, revealed the fact that Uncle Daniel had taken each aside and promised the fortune to him, the family was furious. Sylvia's ingenuity showed the real Uncle Daniel and his true motive to the family. Each realized that Uncle Dan's scheme had been the be- ginning of his career.
