RUTH LINDSEY, B. S„ M. S. Famous for her daily quiz, Miss Lindsey teaches ancient, modern and world history. She is also the sponsor of the editorial staff of the Arena; all staff members are deeply indebted to Miss Lindsey for her tireless effort, which has produced each year a First Class Honor yearbook. ARENA ort editors, Spierling ond Froiier. IT'S EASY TO REMEMBER THE ARENA EDITORIAL STAFF Delving among old Arenas—choosing a theme —planning the layout for each page—getting organization pictures taken—chasing around the school hunting certain people—trying frantically to make a deadline—breaking fingernails on typewriters—that is the editorial staff of the Arena. It is this staff which is responsible for the senior personals, the captions under pictures, articles on the different classes, clubs, and activities. Those people who seemed glued to a camera, always looking for new students in new poses, also belong on the staff—for they are Arena photographers. The two girls who asked one senior right after another What’s your hobby? Who’s your favorite band leader? weren't taking a Gallup poll—they were getting information for the Arena. The persons who asked what was done in this or that club, or which games were won or lost in a certain month belonged to the same staff. They had to find out P V J things and write them, merely to tear them up and rewrite them. Finally the articles were ready for the typists. The whole group mentioned above worked under the supervision of Miss Lindsey and the coeditorship of Julia Truman and Patricia Reynolds. Working together they produced the 1946 edition of the Arena, depicting school life at P. H. S. through the seasons in the first peace-time year since 1941.

 MAUDE E. DORSETT, A. B. Master of the art of punctuation, Miss Dorsett teaches freshman English. Her hobby is collecting antiques and her home is filled with them. She is the efficient sponsor of the financial staff of the Arena. By the way, what is your recipe for coffee, Miss Dorsett? PUT THE PICKLE IN THE MIDDLE AND THE MUSTARD ON TOP THE ARENA FINANCIAL STAFF Do you remember those seniors with their little orange, black, or white cards trying to sell everyone an Arena last fall? Remember those people aggressively calling Ice cream bars!! at the shivering football fans—the girls who fixed hot-dogs and coffee for those same fans—those students trying to sell Christmas cards—the girls who paraded up and down the aisles at basketball games selling candy and ice-cream? These people weren't out for their daily exercises—they were making money for the Arena. Those girls who tried to induce everyone to buy a Tiger pin or a pencil or a candy bar weren’t taking courses in salesmanship—that's right, they were making money for the Arena. Those many Arena dances were for the same purpose—money for the yearbook. All in all these things added up to more and more money and the 1946 Arena. After the money was made it had to be counted and checked, recounted and rechecked and recorded. If a penny was missing, the cry was Find that penny! All of this took careful management, well-kept books, and willing workers. These were found on the financial staff, under the direction of Miss Maude Dorsett. The financial staff was composed of: Co-Chairmen—Florence Moss. Joe Irish. Financial Staff —Winifred Chenoweth, Carolyn Cramer. Merlyn Eldredge. Glada Hortwich. John Lamb, Shirley Slay, Patricia Wright, Sue Hinds. Cramer, Moss, Lamb, Chenoweth, Irish, Hortwich, Slay.
