.ff . , SENIOR CLASS HISTORY BY HELEN ROBBINS One autumn day, early in September, just four years ago, the ship of twenty-seven lowered anchor at P. H. S. At first our new home seemed strange, but with the aid of our sister class and the faculty we soon arranged our course and began our journey. In athletics we were a bit timid. However, the girls organized a hockey team and supported Mary Dimmerling on the Girls, Varsity. Christmas came and with it the Freshies' tree. To us, it was the most beautiful tree we had ever seen. Our ideas of social life were soon displayed when We held our first party. Soon after that we reached the end of the second semester and drew a big sigh of relief. The following year we journeyed to the Land of Wise Fools and became Sophomores. It took only a few days to arrange our schedules, acquire books, etc. At this time we were sorry to hear that Mr. Diehl was unable to return because of illness. Mr. Weiss filled the vacancy quite well. VVe also gained the acquaintances of Misses Dunmoyer, Mclfwcn, Mrs. Steele and lwessrs. Gaskins, Beard and Coach Rogowicz. To make the classes sit up and take notice we sent a first-class hockey team on the field, which held the juniors to the tight score of l-0. Will we ever forget the banquet? Next came basketball, the class pulled together and bought suits for their faithful team. Again the g'rls were represented by Mary Dimmerling on the Girls' Varsity. During this season we also captured first prize in ticket selling. We also held a delightful social gathering, in the form of a Valentine Party, with the chaperons, Misses Short, Unger and Critz and Messrs. Long and Smith, as well as several of the mothers. At this time the Sophomore Orchestra showed its ability as future talent. After a short and very pleasant vacation we lowered anchor on the shores of the Dignified -Juniors. We were now upper classmen and had to distinguish ourselves as such, so we decided to work hard for our acquired number of credits. Two sad things happened this year when we lost our cheerful little friend, Lloyd James, and our honorable Mr. Umbenhen, for fourteen years a member of our School Board. There were alsornany changes in the faculty. Miss Long and Messrs. Flaig, Moser, Sawyer and Coach Grimmett proved very efficient and popular. Also, we welcomed llflr. Bell, our new principal. Again the Girls' Hockey Team played for the championship, losing by a score of 1-0. Then came our favorite sport, basketball. The boys clinched the class championship, while the girls sent Helen Robbins, lvlary Dimmerling and Kitty Scheurer on the Girls' Varsity. Page ffulflqlf N ,.
