Early English Litera- turefShakespeare class, with Mr. Thomas X Wehling as the teacher, made this week possible. X The week began with students picking a path to follow. Sharon Darley took the reli- gious route. She started as a midwife and worked her way up to being a saint. Medi- tating in front of the class was one of the embarassing tasks that was required of , f Sharon. Chivalry Week was a different way to learn about the medieval time besides . reading books and class discussion, said Mary Keller, who evolved from a maiden to a queen. 1 Julius Yang invented something new to Chivalry, the Evil Knight, who did bad things to people. Julius stole chalk from Mr. David Lay, science teacher, and hid it M from him every day throughout the week. -Deborah Diamond -photos by Amy Jentes S .XX Q s X N.

The Good Old Days The year was 1972, and the new Parkway North opened with lots of ambi- tion. The school spirit was more intense when the school first opened be- cause there were goals to shoot for to be one of the best schools, and to be rec- ognized nationally. Now we have reached our goals, and no longer is our school new, said guidance coun- selor, Mrs. Sandra Dobnikar who was one of the 11 teachers on the original teaching staff. The ten oth- ers are Mr. Bob Allison, Mr. Showing his manly power with a bicep flex now and in the year 1972 is Mr. Jim Sefrit, head of the business department. Mr. Garry Chaput, physical educa- tion teacher, showed offhis boyish grin in the first yearbook and now, 16 years later. Papers always seem to pop up in the hands of Mr. Bob Goode, social studies teacher, whether in class or out of class. 701 Faculty Garry Chaput, Mrs. Mary Colaw, Mr. Bob Goode, Mr. Fred Lyon, Mr. Lawrence Moceri, Mr. John Reid, Mr. Bob Robben, Dr. Jim Sefrit, and Mr. Bill Vivrett. When the school opened the roof leaked. Mr. Rick Blaha planted grass on the social studies carpetting to see if it would grow. The grass did grow, Mr. Blaha added a picket fence and a sign which said Please Keep Off Grass. That was one of Mr. Bob Allison's playful memories about the younger years at PNH. l Mfg, YNLJ' S,-Q ........-.. - '!',E'r 't' , V 4 if q ' - . r...-4 . I M , 1L..,x .

By scoring high on the Preliminary Scho- lastic Aptitude Test QPSATJ, a standardized test given to high school students, students could qualify for scholarships in the National Merit Finalist competition. To be even a semifinalist in the competition they needed to attain a 99 percentile. The difficulty in attaining such a lofty percentile was evidenced by the small number of stu- dents who made it into this bracket. Out of the 512 PNH students who took the PSAT, only four became semifinalists. The PNH stu- dents who achieved national merit semifina- lists ranking were: Manish Shah, Sailendra Sunkara, Julius Yang, and Julie Yu. Twelve other students received a commended rank- ing.
