AS WE WILL IT We, the Senior Class of 1934, sincerely wish, before making our last will and testament, that future senior classes will find our record one to emulate and that those ideals which we have striven to assimilate while students at P. C. H. S. will be pursued even more diligently by oncoming senior classes.

THE JUNIOR PARADE CLASS OFFICERS President James Anderson Vice-President Delmar Gurley Secretary Janet Swanson Treasurer Evelyn Sandberg Advisers Miss Strong-, Mrs. McConnell CLASS HISTORY THREE years ago a group of giddy freshmen entered good old P. C. H. S. They endured with fortitude the usual initiation and settled down to the serious business of education. Miss Strong and Miss Whitehurst, advisers, assisted the children in electing their officers: David McKinney, president; Lola Mae Van Antwerp, vice-president; Mildred Chartier, secretary ; and Albert Carlsten, treasurer. Student Council representatives were Catherine Martin and Harold Marlatt. In the spring the freshmen won the contest to select the most popular class in high school. With part of the prize money an elaborate picnic was given. The class entered upon its second year perhaps wiser, but just as happy as ever. Officers were Harold Marlatt, president; Ronald Frette, vice-president; Julia Ann Drilling, secretary; and Harold Cornelison, treasurer. Because of an accident to the treasurer, Evelyn Sandberg served in that office the second semester. Janet Swanson and Albert Carlsten represented the class in the Student Council. The juniors have been prominent in school activities. Besides their regular Student Council representatives, Ronald Frette and Lola Mae Van Antwerp, there are Elijah Adkins, vice-president of the council, and Catherine Martin, secretary-treasurer. Harold Cornelison is varsity cheer leader. David McKinney, William Higginson, Hugh Stone, Marvin Archer, and Leon Healy were out for basketball, and Sam Earnest, Elmer Flannigan, Albert Carlsten, David McKinney, Hugh Stone, and Leon Healy for football.
