-' X23 vL,s- x 1 ii, P ,-...Qa... .. Dedication of the Stadium HE STUDENTS OF P. H. S, displayed their usual enthusiasm and ability when the NEW STADIUM was officially dedicated November 1, 1924. It was the day of the great game between Marietta and Parkersburg and of course the stadium was crowded with Marietta's and our High School Organizations and Students and citi- zens of both cities. At the close of the game between the Little Reds and Marietta Junior High, a huge Hoat, the replica of a football entered the field, mounted on a truck and drawn by a decorated tractor. Half of the float was decorated in Red and White, our colors, and half in the Orange and Black of Marietta. Seats were cut in the front and rear of the football and Miss Mary Louise Dysle, Miss Marietta, sat in front. Miss Kathleen Hammond, elected Miss Parkersburg, sat' in the rear, and received much apolause as she passed the P. H. S. student body. Miss Marietta THE FLOAT Miss Parkersburg page nine
