JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY— ACADEMY Junior Class History had its beginning September n, 1936, wh ' en four strangers entered as students in Pikeville College Academy. Although this illustrious quartet was entirely new to the ways and manners of P. C. A., it wasn ' t long before they were completely adjusted to their new life. That they might complete an organization and plan for the oncoming year, a class meeting was called within a few days after registration. At this initial meeting, which was under the sponsorship of Miss Owens, the officers for the year were elected. For President, the juniors saw fit to elect Arthur Owens; for Vice-President, Douglas Hylton; Dorothy Lee Mordica, the best loved girl in the class, succeeded in capturing the exalted position of Secretary- Treasurer. Douglas Williamson was elected to the task of reporting all Junior news and gossip to the Record, while Oliver Elam, as sergeant-at-arms, was voted the man to quell all riots and special upheavals that might occur in the class. This unique class, composed of students from other high schools, had participants in all the activities of the school. Douglas Hylton, honorable representative from Pike High, held down a position on the Academy Runts, while Oliver Elam, a mid-term arrival from Martin, saw active service with the College Bears. Dorothy Lee Mordica, only girl in the class and hailing from Pike High, Douglas Williamson, formerly of Steele High School, Dayton, Ohio, and Arthur Owens, from Walton, Kentucky, were members of the French Club, Les Portes Flambeaux. Dorothy Lee Mordica, the shy little thing that gives the impression of a shrinking violet, started her Academy career with a steady, serious courtship with ' a dignified Senior as her partner. This affair, marred with but a few trivial upsets, lasted until the beginning of the second semester. Douglas Williamson, considered by all as the best-natured boy in school, has proved to be the old friend in need more than once. His faithfulness has shown itself in the many incidents of everyday school life. Douglas Hylton, gentleman from Shelbiana, takes the floor with the title of dashing young man in the Chevrolet sedan. With the aid of this trusty vehicle, he has succeeded in wooing many hearts from more deserving young men. But, altogether, Doug is capable of holding his own against any sort of competition, be it fair or else. Oliver Elam, probably the only boy in the Academy who could justly deserve to be called reserved, entered school at the half-way mark of the school year. His sterling worth was evident from the start; he was always courteous and neat in appearance. Walton contributed to our class Arthur Owens, the young man with the military stride. As soon as he got his bearing he was up to his old tricks of making glances at the girls. Art was so well liked he was elected President of the class, and has been doing well in that position. Art works hard at his studies, as his grade card shows. Because the Juniors felt themselves to be far above classes that have gone before, they selected as their class colors green and gold, and made the fact prominent by wearing sweaters of these colors.
