FEW HUNDRED years ago, tribes of American Indians lived and died here where our high school now stands. At certain seasons of the year, however, necessity and their own warlike spirit drove them afar in search of wild game and adventure. On these excursions they carried with them choice morsels of the lean dried meat of the bison, carefully treated to form a special and highly prized food called pemican. The etching on this page portrays the Indian squaw engaged in making pemican, while the lazy chief, smoking his pipe, looks on indiiferently. In recent years this word pemican has been given a new meaning, that of informa- tion or thought condensed within a small compass, in other words, a digest or sum- mary of events. Thus, from the two different interpretations of the word we have derived the meaning and the purpose of our book. Its name, THE PEMICAN, is suggestive of the Bison, symbol of the High School, and the book itself is intended to summarize a year of life at Senior High, compressing within a small compass choice bits of an eventful nine months.

MR. CARROLL SCIIOLARLY, sociable person, easilv accessible to all people, Mr. Charles F. Carroll, our superintendent, is most widelv recognized for his talent as a public speaker. His careful planning and promotion of numerous educational and civic activities has extended his iniluenee to many walks of life. Under his administration not onlv has the high school plant been enlarged but the curriculmn has been expanded to include additional vocational and commercial subjects. The music department, discontinued during the depression, was reestablished in 1937-38 on a broader basis, academic offerings were strengthened, and the school was readmitted to the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondarv Schools. Mr. Carroll likes his home life, and nothing suits him better after a hard dav at the office than a good book and his favorite pipe. Mr. Carroll is also a victory garden cntlmsiast and has even tried raising chickens. He enjoys remi- niscing of college days when he was varsity man in certain sports, and he frequently recalls inci- dents that occurred while he was a pitcher in league baseball. Mr. and Mrs. Carroll have one son, Charles, Ir., who is now on active dutv with the Navv in the South Pacitic. PAGE
