It's ironic that this team was only allotted two pages in the Anchor; two of its members became professional ball players.

Johnny Montague (b. 12 Sept 1947) played for the Baltimore Orioles, the Montreal Expos, the Philadelphia Phillies, the Seattle Mariners, and the California Angels.

   From Me ('65) of NC - 09/27/16:

I was startled and saddened to learn of Charlie's recent death as I was making the above page. He sat in front of me in Mrs. Shelton's Senior English class, and was always making me laugh. I've added him to our Class  Memoriam Page: http://www.nnhs65.com/memoriam-all.html      http://www.nnhs65.com/memoriam.html

His girlfriend’s father was interviewing young Charles. “So,” said the father, “you want to be my son-in-law, do you?" “No, not particularly,” said Charles tactlessly, “but if I want to marry your daughter I haven’t much choice, have I?”
