Our Thinst Jor Kuouledge (as eee Throughout our highschool career our thirst forknowledge grew. Echoing through the halls was the click clack of our typewriters. Our teachers helped us fill ourselves to the brim with formulas, equations, Presidents, poems, and parts of speech, but, still, our thirst for knowledge was not quenched, Our years at P, M.H.S. were only the beginning of our search for knowledge.

Our Carefree Laughter ...... Jokes and smart returns bringing joyous laughter are familiar sounds in the hallowed halls of Parry McCluer. Students, more often gay than not, meet after lunch outside and in the rooms to exchange jokes and funny sayings. This atmosphere helps lessen tensions and provides pleasure in the midst of study. Even the teachers join us, making us feel they have a sense of humor also. Laughter helps us forget our problems, if only for a few minutes. Laughter is the best medicine and we here feel it's an integral part of our school life. —

Our Ageless Traditians . Throughout the year, P.M, a. S.'s traditions were placed here and there. They were repetitions of years past but were still beautiful and dear to our hearts. They were a part of the hazy past and our ue in the continuous chain of glorious years ate. Mu.c. The fun-filled eighth grade initiation, the enjoyment of Health a and Homecoming, the majestic memory of the Junior-Senior . Prom, and the excitement of our sports program were planted in our hearts to grow more cherished each year. Even the three minute chats between classes were a familiar part in our life at P.M.H.S. Our ageless. traditions played an equal part in the lives of those who had gone before us and a promise to be fulfilled to those to come after us. All were a treasured part of the eperisnes heritage of the 1961-62 P,.M.H. ,S, student body. |
