Barbara Bucker William Bucker The seniors of the Class of '55 began their high school days in Parkville and North Kansas City. When the new high school was built, these two freshman classes united to form the first sophomore class at Park Hill. In their junior year, the class of '55 undertook the planning of the Prom, The Land of Make-Believe: an Operetta, Love Goes Southg and produced several queens and a king. One junior girl took Homecoming honors and the twins of the class claimed the Carnival honors. The senior year was filled with both gay and serious moments. The Seniors' field days included an educational trip to Kansas University, as well as fun trips to Swope Park and the Airport, and Folger's Coffee Company. Naturally, the Prom and Graduation Exercises will never be forgotten. The play, For the Love of Pete, was presented by the class. Not to be outdone, the class again won the honor of having the Carnival queen. A senior girl and boy represented Park Hill on T.V. Tunes, and five senior girls, nominated for Troyian Queen, also made their television appearance. There were also several senior couples on Katz T.V. Teen Town. The class sponsored a magazine sale to raise funds for a tennis court, and with the help of the Board of Education, this gift was made possible. The senior class was well represented in the Student Council, with a senior girl as president. Seniors also held high offices in most of the other school organizations. The class had ten seniors representing them in the National Honor Society. They were also well represented at the District and State Music and Commercial Contests, where they received several One ratings. This year was a memorable one, and the thoughts of it shall be cherished through- out our lives. 14
