S. weire proud of youg Many teachers, friends, and books we've had, But even now we won't be sacl. Just the same old words but different tune: How we'll miss you, hate to leave so soong Our parting words are yet the best For P. H. S. CHORUS We leave our happy days behind, But memories still hold, Jobs and such we hope to f1nCl Though scarce as we've been told. To college some of us will go i To plan our future years, We won't be back 'but you all know, We hate to leave! --Words and Music by L ouise Schilling

26 Class Activities HALLOWE'EN DANCE October 31, the night when ghosts and goblins walk, was selected by the January '39 class for their first social affair, a Tacky Dance in the Elks' Club ballroom. The ballroom and stage were gayly decorated in fuchsia and silver. After a hilarious evening, every student, and even the chaperones, said they had a good time. COLOR DAY Cn Friday, November 4, the January seniors wore their class colors, fuchsia and silver, for the first time. At 8:30 in the morning the beautiful Hag was raised by President Bryan Wilson, while the class members sang and cheered. After lunch the class presented its Color Day Program. The scene was Moose Inn, a modern night club. A selected orchestra furnished the music. The formally dressed couples were greeted by Wes Barringer, master of ceremonies, who presented the floor show. Dot Uoan Davisj Satterfield, with her boy friend, Bill Oakes, securely tied to her by a rope, kept us laughing, Jinky Garretson and Mary Frances Kennedy sang romantic songs, Clyde Wigner, with his impersonations, was forever present, but was finally bounced by the waiters, a trio, Jean Deeble, Dorothy Satterfield, Louise Schilling, sang, Gene Barringer delighted his audience with his trumpet, and Dot Satterfield sang a song composed by Louise Schilling. This completed the floor show, and the couples resumed their dancing as the curtain went down. SENIOR TEA An old P. H. S. custom was revived when the Senior I girls entertained the Senior II girls with a delightful tea on Saturday, January 14. The tea was held at the Wo1nan's Club from two- thirty to five o'clock. JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The Junior II class entertained the January '39 Seniors on Monday night, January 16, with the usual banquet at the Masonic Temple. After a delicious dinner, a program, which took us back to our nursery days, was presented by the talented Juniors, with Charles Taylor as toastmaster. Mr. Michael, the Old King Colei' of the party, was the principal speaker. Later, the ballroom was cleared and dancing was enjoyed until twelve o'c1ock. CLASS DANCE Tuesday, January 17, was set aside by the graduating class for their farewell to each other. The Seniors' private dinner and dance was held in the banquet hall of the Chancellor Hotel. The tables were decorated with flowers, and fuschia and silver streamers. After a delicious dinner, Bryan Wilson, class president, presented Miss Kerr with a gift of appreciation from the class. Val Brown's Brigadiers played for dancing from eight-thirty to twelve. SENIOR I-II PARTY Wednesday, January 18, was the last Senior affair, when we were entertained by the Senior I's at the Coliseum. Although we were outnumbered by our hosts. we had a very good time. Eva Satow
