Future Citizens. . . SENIORS CLASS HISTORY E In the fall of 1937, a class of 114 timid OJ little freshmen enrolled in P. C. H. S. Miss Florence Rathert was chosen class sponsor and Bob Crawford class president. When we were two years old, we elected Mr. Hugh Malan as our class sponsor and Bob Bartle as president. Besides having our fall and spring picnics, we entertained the freshmen at the freshman-sophomore party. At the age of three we began to feel more grown-up. After all, we were then upper- classmen. Bob Crawford, our freshman president, was again the popular choice for presi- dent and Mr. Ragland was our junior sponsor. In our last year in high school, the crowning glory of our four years, Hubert Shurtz was elected president of the senior class, Austin Carter, vice-president, Don Robb, secre- tary, Betty Kelly, treasurer, and Mr. Morris, class sponsor. During our four years, we feel that we have claimed many people of whom we can be justly proud. First of all, three girls of our class have served as carnival queens, Dixie Sweatt, in 1938, Virginia Morganstern, who was also active in Pep Club as cheer leader, in 1939, and Betty Kelly, in 1940. Bob Quigley, of the Forensic Club, rated high as a debater and individual speaker and helped our school bring home many trophies and medals. Edna Mohr, also of our class, was president of the debate club in 1940-41. Not only does the class of '41 shine in intellectuals and social activities, but also in sports. Bob Bartle was captain of the football team when he was only a junior and Bob Crawford was captain when he was a senior. In basketball, there were six letter-men from our class in our junior year who were again fighting for P. C. I-I. S. this year. They are Killingsworth, Crawford, L. Schilling, Bartle, Livingston and F. Schilling. Out-of-town seniors who starred on the basketball team are Carter, of Cutler, and O'Keefe, of Tamaroa. Then on the tumbling team we had Don Robb, Alvin Bruns, and Floyd Rich. In all four years, we have always been well represented in the band and chorus, and for that matter, in every organization of the school. Please don't think we are bragging when we say we are proud of our class and the record we have laid down to look upon in years to come.
