We pledge to her our loyalty. and try our best to do All that she's taught us through the years we've sat beneath her rule. Those glorious days! Those happy days! Our own Montrose High School. 2 DAYTON L. BIRCHARD High School Principal A new class, that ot l956, is about to take its place in a larger sphere ot activity. From your school experience some principles to guide in the pattern ot living must have emerged. In our complex civilization one ot the guideposts to a fuller lite is that ot cooperative worlc with one's fellows. Cooperative activity brings the greatest ot human satisfaction. He who rises upon the broken spirits and bodies ot others may attain power and wealth, but he still must live with his own conscience. Among the challenging situations today which should enlist our united ettort tor solution are disease, poverty, ignorance, spiritual blindness. control ot great forces of atomic energy and solar power, and the at- tainment ot a lasting world peace. My wish tor the members ot your class is not tor ease and seltish using-up ot things but tor the satisfaction which may be yours in the cooperative struggle, that all may enioy the benefits ot a benevolent Creator. 3 ACTA STAFF SeaLcd, left to right: Barbara DeWitt, Roger Torrey, Patricia lvlcConnon, Andrew Canes, llaleyne liudarr, cdiiorg Giles Seely, Edith Hayes, Belly Wilson.

CLASS HI TORY l952-53 One hundred seventeen freshmen, somewhat awe-struck but with great deter- mination and ambition, strode into school that balmy September morning to begin their high school career. We chose Sally Davis as our president. Several success- ful bake sales gave us a rousing start. Our first class party was held in April and before we knew it, spring was here, as was the end ot our first year in high school. l953-54 Having chosen Philip Mackey as our president, we opened our class activities with a student-faculty basketball game that greatly enlarged our treasury and temporarily decreased our faculty. Bake sales, a class dance. and a pancake supper kept us busy through the remainder of the winter. With the coming of spring, we ordered our class rings and hurriedly scampered off to our varied vacations to await their arrival. I 954-55 Sixty flashing class rings accompanied the delighted juniors back to school. We aptly chose Giles Seely as our president. Williamsburg and Washington, D. C., were the scenes of many enjoyable and profitable experiences and escapades as we took the annual pilgrimage south. On our return we jumped vigorously into plans for our big Christmas dance. Bake sales and a spaghetti supper followed. As we wound up our iunior year, we gazed longingly toward September when we would realize our greatest aspiration! We'd be seniors! I 955-56 Seniors, at last! Philip Mackey again received the nod for class president. A Hallowe'en dance initiated our senior year's activities. A chicken barbecue in February proved most rewarding. Henrietta the Eighth, a three-act comedy, was our senior play. The senior prom in April provided us with many a fond mem- ory. Class day, baccalaureate, and graduation brought our high school days to a memorable close. ' I ALLEN, HAROLD Outstanding pitcher on champion baseball nine . . . swings a mighty bat . . .

Whereas Jay Kelly, the executor, named in a certain instrument in writing purporting to be the last Will and Testament of said Class of '56 relating to both real and personal estate has bequeathed the following: To our teachers, who have helped us thus far toward achievement, we do hereby bequeath our heartfelt thanks and appreciation. To the same, above mentioned, we leave as a memento the mem- ory of our student-teachers' basketball game that put some of you out of commission. Band members leave to their successors their love for music. Rosalie Haritun leaves her skill on the saxo- phone to Patty Fink. Our trumpeters, Gertrude Wilcox, Barbara Schooley, Dave Gardner and Roger Torrey will their tootin' ability to Delberta Hitchings and Mary Winkleblech. Proficiency on the clarinet is the gift of our skillful wood winds, Anita Blochberger, Donna Cor- win, and Marilyn Egli, to Margaret Flynn. Reginald Graham, Charles Pratt, Jerry Linfoot, Everitt Lowry, Louis Mitchell and John Sasina each take lfb of their gentlemanlike manner and gener- ously bequeath it to some of the junior boys. Bell-like qualities on the flute are the gift of June Sprout to Priscilla Parks. To George Wilmore and Jim Erwin, Giles Seely wills his low mellow tones on the baritone. All of the said band members leave to Mr. Rolston any squeaky or sweet notes that will come in handy. 5 ' Bettianne Weegar, Raleyne Kudart, Pat Mc- Connon, Dorothy Martin, Marjorie Winans, Connie Myers, and Carolyn Thomen all bequeath their high C's to Dick Vogel and John Moger, Herman Stahl, Andy Gaines and David Fitzsim- ons willingly bequeath their strong bass voices for distribution by Miss McMurtrie. Edith Hayes and Lynn Kresky combine their cheerleading talents and hope that Joan Wilbur can make use of it. Phil Mackey's efficiency as a leader is left to all forth-coming senior presidents. Their crew-cuts are the gifts of Ken Griffis, Dick Pfeiff, Bucky Allen, and Ted Stockholm to David Darrow. Petiteness is a quality Alice McKeeby, Frances Hawley, and Claudia Cutler gladly bequeath to Diane McConnon and Elaine Mead. Judy Wickizer and Judy Geiger not so willingly leave their flirtatiousness to Beverly Frazer. The athletes of the Class of '56, Dick Glover. Barbara DeWitt, Alan Stockholm, Janet Bush, Jack Winans, Betty Wilson, and Linda Brown leave their ability to Susan Bertholf and Nancy Moore. Mabel Miller, Joyce Kent, Sharla Warner, Therese Magnotti, and Rosalie Raynor give their gift of serenity, sincerity, and politeness to Tim Mc- Mullin and David Wilcox. Wavy locks are what Ed Shelp, Bob Skinner, Vern Smith, and Dave Wilber choose to leave John Krupinski. Bob Hughes, Doug Jenner, Dick Richards. Cliff Lewis, Jerry Myers, and Chuck Tator leave their clownishness to Billy Booth and Carl Sloat. A flare for clothing is left by Alice Machulaitis and Margo Wheeler to Betty Kane. Pleasantness is left to everyone who has a gloomy day by Nancy Wood, Anna Knopick, Barbara Richardson, Lorelei Smith, Evelyn Everitt, and Lois Hughes. Glenn Smith, Roger Root, Tom Robinson, Spencer Sprout, Myron Severcool, Bob Griffis, and Don Regan leave their consideration of others to anyone who thinks he could use some. Mischief is the trait that Bobby Sechrist, Fred Krause, Howard Webber, and Dick Blaisure will to Lillian Clough and Rose Marie Smith. All the above mentioned traits and abilities are bequeathed with the intention that they will help many in the future. We hereby maintain that all the statements heretofore mentioned are exactly what the Class of '56 late, of the town of MONTROSE, PENNSYL- VANIA, wills to their successors.

Already a constructor of eight gas engine models. he con- tinues his interest through research, attendance at model airplane meets, and further building. We feel sure that with his background he could well consider as a career naval aviation or aeronautical engineering. As a youngster in fourth grade, Patricia completed her first sewing project, an apron. Today she can exhibit a large ward- robe including skirts, blouses, jackets, dresses, and the like. Pat enjoys sewing not only because it allows her to be creative but also for the satisfaction she receives in owning a wide selection of ready-to-wear apparel for any occasion. We are proud of her. We're glad to introduce members ot the first bowling team to be made up largely ot high school pupils. This year they are rounding out their third year with a good possibility ot placing third in the league. Dave Fitzsimons seems to be the team's high scorer tor the season, but all have done a commendable iob. Where there's a lalce, there's lilcely to be water- slciing tun. And where there's water-slciing, you'll tind Lynn. Since she was eleven, the lure ot compet- ing with other water sports enthusiasts has played a big part in her summer vacations. In tact, the array ot blue ribbons she displays tor her work is evidence enough ot the slcill she has acquired.
