Scope and content
The Bellarmine High School prom, hosted by the school's junior class, was held at the Elks Temple, 565 Broadway, in April of 1946. The prom theme was "Blossom Time." Music was provided by the Brad Bannon Orchestra which began playing at 9 pm and played until midnight. Co-chairmen for the event were Al Greco and Rufe Theriault. A large group of girls in evening gowns and Bellarmine students in suits and ties all face the camera with smiles. A "Farewell Seniors" banner hangs behind the orchestra. Photograph taken for the school annual. (Cage, 1946, p. 13-14). TPL-8443
