 JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In September, 1927, the thundering of a mighty herd deafened P. C. H. S. but the noise was only that of the large number of “green freshies” of the class of ’31. These freshies were duly initiated and their class officers were elected. They were Oretha Pierce, president; Roy Hancock, vice-president; Virginia Carlsten, secretary; William Anderson, treasurer. The second year began as all new school years do begin—with salutations, class adjustments, finding out what teachers would be easy to try to fool, and the election of class officers. These were president, Roy Hancock; vice-president, Donald Schif; secretary, Virginia Johnson, and treasurer, Victor Holley. Some picnics were held and a party was given by the class advisers. Miss Bear and Mr. Tilbury. The bobsled party caused considerable commotion at school so this particular party will stand out clearly in the memories of those who were present. William Judy was chosen as varsity cheer leader to assist Mildred Stiegman, and to become cheer leader next year. The Junior play, “The Youngest,” was presented in the Auditorium on December 13. The banquet given for the Seniors wras kept a secret until the very last. The Seniors agreed that it was a pleasant surprise. Large classes are often unwieldy, but this one is doing its best for its school.
