To us, high school was a mere vision ; now it is almost a memory. |: 1927 the Freshmen Class enrolled in P. M. H. S. We came Our Freshman year was a happy one. Everything was new. This resulted in hard, earnest work. We had a big class meet- ing and elected our first school officers. As Sophomores, we bent our attention to taking care of the Freshmen. At last we had the privilege of pinching the “Rats.” One or two of our classmates left us to start in married life. In 1929 we returned as happy, carefree Juniors. We had several new members to come into our class from Glasgow, Mountain View, Natural Bridge, and other country places. In this Junior year we had to tackle many hard problems. Our Junior-Senior Banquet was the finest that had ever been held. This year, our biggest and final year, has been a happy one so far. Can it be possible that we are Seniors? High school life consists of three phases: intellectual, social, and athletic. Volney McClure and Rodney Conner are the orators of our class, while the whole class are the social leaders of the high school. Our best known athletes are: Tom Dickinson, John Dickinson, Jr., Byron Spangler, Christian Merritt, Volney McClure, Roy Greene, Rodney Conner, John Henry Lanum. After this year we will all start on different roads in life. We will no doubt try our hand at every kind of profession. —BESSIE GRAYBILL. | Junior Class Mrs. GLaAss, Sponsor OFFICERS President 23 2 2k Se Lo ee EARL LEECH VCO PESACH nlc ce ch ee ee FRANCES WHITESELL Secretary 1 TGSULEN bin ok cro on Ge eo Re, Sl AA ee Sen een eT a EELENSEIX MOTTO 99) “The door to success is labeled, ‘Push’.

You are listen- (ei ing to station J-U-N-I-O-R, broadcasting from P. M. H. S. Our program this evening will be a short history of the Junior class. On September 4, 1930, thirty-four happy girls and boys en- tered the Junior class. The first thing we found out was that Miss Knight, now Mrs. Glass, was our home room teacher. The first thing we did was to elect the following officers: karl Leech, president; Frances Whitesell, vice-president; and Ellen Fix, secretary and treasurer. By this time the football season was in full sway. We gave valuable assistance in Thomas Janney, Glenn Eggleston, and Robert Anthony. Joe Parrent was elected manager of the team, while Robert Anthony was elected captain of next year’s team. On December 5th, we gave a big party, at which all had a grand time. February; Exams over, majority well on way to work for final units which will make them Seniors. This was an especially interesting month, because the man came to take the order for our rings. Everybody was elated. “Salt Water Taffy,” the Junior play, was a big success. We are also planning a moonlight picnic in the spring.’ We are looking forward to being S-E-N-I-O-R-S in 1931- 1932, and until then, Station J-U-N-I-O-R, signing off. —ELiLen Frx. ; | L DINK Y | — Sophomore Class Secretary-Treasurer JAMES BrAy Lewis CULLEN Tom DickINSON Wooprow GILBERT Bitty Lonc STAFFORD PRICE ALMER RIDINGS WILLIAM SEAY SAMUEL SHAFER WILLIAM WILSON VIRGINIA CASEY VIRGINIA CULLEN Miss MEapor, Sponsor OFFICERS MEMBERS MARGARET CUNNINGHAM Mar DECKER VIRGINIA DEPRIEST Loutse DIxon RutH EMBREE BERNICE Fox BeSSIE FRIEDMAN OrA GARRETT Dorris GREENE Hitpa Hartiess EpirH Henson LoutsE Dixon BILLY WILSON ...

Gone are books, studies, and all the cares and trials of high school. We have left only the pleasant memories of good times and the forma- tion of lifelong friendships. The rest is forgotten. We begin this week on Sunday, May 24th, when Rev- erend A. C. Hopkins, formerly of this city, but now located at Charlotte Court House, preaches our Commencement Sermon. And how we enjoy listening to him once again. Then on Thursday, for the last time we appear in public as a group, in celebration of our Class Night. Here we, as a class, display the fruits of our four years’ experience together. On Friday, May 29th, we receive, with a heartfelt sigh and the knowledge of work well done, our coveted diplomas from the hands of Mr. Miller. And now ends the most important part of our career, but the most joyous part is to come on Monday night, when we dine and dance at Natural Bridge. Behold, we are alumni, and we celebrate it. =a Athletics : a IF rn are ae | K Y | ee COON, bh Ke CR ARE Ae ee Ee CR ae RO se rete ee ea eet Mr. KLING CODLGING cams Seen tee er oe An oee n n e ete ne Tom DIcKINSON IM ONG GE wis rs atte 0 ee ake aches ae ee ee a Jor PARRENT Aside from losing eleven letter men through graduation, the 1930 squad was faced with the loss of most of its reserve strength through ineligibility due to poor scholastic work. At no time were more than fifteen men eligible to play. In spite of these difficulties a fairly successful team was developed, using Spangler, Greene, and Captain Tom Dickinson as a nucleus around which to build. The prospects for next year are much brighter, as most of this year’s in- eligibles have removed their deficiencies. Bob Anthony is captain for next year. ———$—S| DINKY | Fe Football Team LETTER MEN GRIST Nae ie RR ieee ree rs Puan ene arth foe oh le ataue Aa bade aek) ele as, Sasane s End VER GONE S PAEN GLE seer ae sce yy ee een ams ect oge eye eM SoluiPea “uep boeice S sic hoe “alla: End RO DINE Me OUNANT 1. emer ei 5-2. 500s toe RRL Uae M Red, wh iee a aha ceteck wr yes End (ORCINUS Ba SG COIN 0) hel ae OE a et A A or cS a ee a Tackle EN Rey DANG yan VLC CON UL Eee MRP ote on, 6 rls A eg RSE we PUA 5 distal cen aSiu i Peyrguntink omeace Tackle ADRAT NS VY FITTEST DEM ener Mee cca lina cate ee oe he eae Wena studs oe ed a oe he Tackle (PRA CRAIG COR Deana aati lire cte 2 5 oe ee amen St Pt eed ee Ob ML Act Guard SOPRA ON ee are Te sc x ied te antes dita aie acoso = Sa, 5 aa, Stan Neg ah cutee Guard JOHN EIENRY GANUM 2c 20 oe een ee ee a ene: Center PCV MEL!) 1 CES TENTS ON EIEN Cas. yr hens ce Cache eR RO tee oN ol Vans etaiio sed eee mae Ouarterback Moma DTG RUN SO.Nee acest gis gre c+ cos at eet iste eee ce = 3s Oe eer Halfback MEM RIN CATT ERSON, we gcc eo. va Sater tee wrens mae ois Gates are ene: Halfback | TVA RE Tae ee ie er a oe oa gd, aoe aE a os olka ee ak eRe cP Fullback OA PRIN UI Rte eRe apo a cle ol! os 9 vis eu etrtnte ol = hocpbe gr wicgeteapnetne set o Manager —— kee 2 | OL Nita ee Be PE TIN A Moet Gator 62 5 0 vad gatas F.
