'Ihe outstanding change which was brought about by the revision was the formation of a Student Council.

This is the first year that Parma High has had this executive council, but it has been very successful. i-1 J OURNALISM CLASS The J ournalism Class was supervised by Miss McManime.

Mr. Oscar Peterson, whose son is a graduate of our school, was interested in seeing some improvements in the building and willingly gave his time and energy to the making of the trophy case This improvement adds much to the appearance of the building We wish to extend our thanks to those who helped pay for the trophy case and especially to Mr Peterson, who has shown so much interest in the school We smcerely to make Parma High a better school ff' hope that studeiits may see fit to contribute to other helpful improvements in the future
