EPTEMBER, 1931, marked the beginning of High School Days for the Class of 1935. VVe were a trifle timid at first, as Freshies usually are, but proud of the fact that we were four hundred and eighty strong, the largest class ever enrolled in P. H. S. After we had grown to know each other we held our first class election. After a short time we began work on the class constitution under the direction of Miss Claire E. Long. VVe parted in June, somewhat diminished in number, but everyone with new friends, new ideas, and new ideals. During Sophomore year we seemed to keep out of things, as a class, although both boys and girls took part in lntra-mural sports and club activities. VVe were assigned our class advisers, Miss Esther . Johnson and Mr. Warreii N. Butler. Quite a l of time was spent amending the constitution in endeavor to please as many members of the class Setretary. ,. . ...... MARY VVELLER l vb s possible. ' .i Wg, ..

Class ol I936 In the fall we returned-every one with a beautiful sun tan -but, unlike the year previous, We entered the second term in a more subdued manner and from the start were on the look- out for pitfalls. In the N. R. A. parade we very graciously accepted fourth place, even though we knew we were good! Possibly our class did. not shine brightly in athletics-and-we- were reminded of this quite often by other classes but now a fact comes to light that has never before been mentioned. The sophomores have consistently topped all other classes on the honor roll, which really shows our eiiiciency. In all cases we have given our full support to any organization on a drive for money. The first semester officers elected who worked diligently with lVIiss Short and lVIr. Gaskins were Eleanor Hay, president, Charles Conrad, vice-presidentg Dick Bennie, seeretaryg Selma Nasser, treasurer. This group planned a constitution of which we are all proud. ' VVhen the second semester rolled around, elections were again held. Richard Bennie defeated all other candidates for office of presidentg Jean Nicholas, vice-presidentg Dolores Fey, secretaryg and Edward VVilson, treasurer. In these two years the feeling of fellowship has been awakened in every student. This is being encouraged by the class advisers who will will- ingly help any student out of a difhculty. Our only hope is that by the time we are seniors the goal we are so earnestly striving to reach will be within our grasp. Hardships are ex- pected but always are we conscious of the deep appreciation we hold in being able to study in such a beautiful school. OFFICERS-SCCOHd Semester President ....... Vice-President ....

Class of I935 VVe've lost approximately Hfty per cent of our former class- mates, but among those remaining there exist friendships that will continue to exist and which will stand the test. The Junior Class is well represented in football, basketball, track, and gymnastics gg also in music and oratorical work. g V As a class we've been quite active this year. During the first semester we chose our class colors, black and silver, and our motto, Upward, Onward, Forward. The f'Frosh is our sister class so the junior girls held a party for the Freshmen maidens last fall. Various members of the class provided entertainment, and everyone seemed to enjoy the affair. A beautiful Christmas tree, red and green decorations, tinsel, and snow gave a very festive air to the Junior Snow Dance which was held just before the Christmas vacation. Although an extremely large crowd was not in attendance, the dance was a social success and we came out with money in the treasury. VVhat was the greatest epoch in our History? Why, the Junior Promenade, of course. Quite a lot of comment was ex- cited by the black and silver tickets and programs. Very effec- tive were the decorations in the girls' gymnasium, beautifully gowned damsels tripped the light fantastic with handsome, debonair young he-men to the strains of Charlie Artz's orches- tra. Friday, April thirteenth was a gala night indeed and one 1 li X f A J L 1 E tx o o 0 o ,, 0 Q . vhs' , 'nf S I V OFFICERS-Second Semester President ....... ...... .
