Class Mis tort In the fall of ' 58 as we frightened Freshmen peered into the future, we glimpsed the pot of gold at the foot of the rainbow but the way there seemed endless. However, we were an ambitious forty-nine, so supported by Mrs. Mary H. Ruff, as sponsor, we undertook the long trek with Jimmy Mattox, as pres¬ ident; Ronnie Pendleton, as vice-president; Betty McDaniel, secretary; and Sally Fellers, treasurer. At the end of that year ' s hike we bivouacked at the home of Mrs. Ruff for a refreshing picnic. When we returned as Sophomores after a brief vacation, our class was somewhat smaller. However, we were more eager now to travel and achieve honors with our first and hardest (?) year behind us. Our sponsor was Miss Alice Hylton. This year we consigned our official duties to Jimmy Mattox as presi¬ dent; Ronnie Pendleton, vice-president; Betty McDaniel, secretary, and Virginia King, treasurer. This year we too were honored by assisting with the Junior-Senior Banquet. Dressed as pirates, we were filled with food, memories, and ideas of our position as hosts the coming year. We ended the second lap of our journey with a class party in the school auditorium. As we twenty-seven Juniors assembled in our home-room with Mrs. E. W. Hamm, we were more mature, greatly excited, but reinforced by our past experiences. We felt equal to facing the new hori¬ zon. We, realizing the duties and responsibilities of class officers, elected Jimmy Mattox as president; Bernard Alphin, vice-president; Diane Martin, secretary; Dorothy Gray, treasurer, and Sue Williamson, reporter. Our first task was the Junior Carnival. This was one way to raise money for the long awaited banquet. The tedious hours and vigorous work proudly paid off. As a reward for our first semester, the class was invited to Jimmy Mattox’s home for a Christmas party. After the holiday we all settled down and studied hard for exams in hopes that the ring-man would consider our merits. Truly the ordering of our rings was a momentous event. Before we knew it, there on the agenda was the most significant Junior-Senior Banquet. Striving to present a banquet superior to all those past, our exhausting hours of decorating and planning were accomplished in the exquisite Over the Rainbow. The night proved up to our expectations climaxed by receiving our rings - compliments in our ears and around our fingers. To end this last year together as underclassmen, we had an outdoor’supper at Diane Martin ' s home. We were now ready for a vacation before our anticipated bitter-sweet year as top classmen at MHS. The great day finally dawned when we were hailed as those seniors as we returned to the halls of Montvale. Our ranks now reduced to 26, spirited to toil and achieve the pot of gold Over the Rainbow, we were now distinguished as seniors laboring for the diploma granted after twelve years of school work. After careful meditation, the high office of president was filled by Bernard Alphin. To assist him Jim¬ my Mattox was elected vice-president; Diane Martin, secretary; Dorothy Gray, treasurer, and Sue Wil¬ liamson, reporter. As a class, we were invitied to attend the football game at Charlottesville on No¬ vember 25. Fund raising events - the box-supper and the pompous senior play, Always in Trouble, filled our days with plans for the senior trip. On May 25 a Greyhound bus left Montvale filled with the happy-go-lucky seniors of ' 62. Our three-day visit was one to be reminisced over for years to come. In April we were honored with a banquet given by the juniors. This occasion repaid us for the hours we had spent entertaining our upperclassmen the year before. Our first long venture into education has come to an end, sadly for some, happily for others. We now plan our graduation excercises. We ' ve stood the test now, to do our best now, ' tis Montvale High, our Alma Mater, farewell; SHIRLEY OVERSTREET DOROTHY GRAY
