Researching some of the names on this program helped me deduce that this is from the Emmetsburg High School in Emmetsburg, Palo Alto county, Iowa. I've attached links to memorials of those whom I could locate on Find A Grave. This was quite the event if the Roast Goose and dressing on the menu are any indicator. 😉
