6THE SENIOR HISTORT In September, 1933, an enthusiastic group of freshmen entered P. C. H. S. They suffered the usual trials of becoming acclimated to high school life. It wasn’t long, however, until this teacher and that one were commenting about their experiences with these pupils. As is always the case, some undertook all their duties with a keen sense of responsibility and seriousness. One example of their initiative spirit was the writing of a school song which was presented during the sophomore year. Year by year there have been members of the class that have efficiently and consistently grasped the subject matter studied and have proven that they have made progress in learning how to think. Each of the four years has found members of their class becoming leaders in the extracurricular activities such as band, glee clubs, athletics, dramatics, student council, and the F. F. A. Needless to say there have been times when they, as individuals or as a class, have not lived up to the expectations of their instructors. Generally speaking, they have manifested a spirit of cooperation, sportsmanship, and leadership which any class could well follow as an example. I, for one, have enjoyed working with them during their four years. —A Teacher My first impression of these seniors was the time when they were merely “sophs.” They were high and mighty toward us green freshmen, but, as the year progressed, the sophomores began to treat us with some respect. They handed out their worldly advice with a free hand. During the next year the juniors made several outstanding contributions to the school, and our opinion of them rose again. It is their senior year in which their accomplishments gained for them the affection of the entire student body. It was up to this class to maintain the reputation which P. C. H. S. had acquired, and they have come through with flying colors! —A Junior The seniors were only juniors when we came to high school. They seemed so important to us, especially when they began talking about their play and banquet. We have had a lot of fun with them in class basketball, contests and other school activities. The class of 1937 has always proved to be good sports though loyal to their class and to P. C. H. S. The sophomores are going to find it hard to put substitutes in their places. —A Sophomore The most important event of my life, entering high school, had one big “if” to me. Could I get by the upper classmen without too many mistakes? It really wasn’t so bad for the seniors showed us when, where, and how to go. They have set an example during our first year of high school which I hope our class can follow. —A Freshman

Freshmen The potential class of ’40 entered school last fall as green-ribboned students. After they had survived the usual initiation ceremonies, they settled down to the process of getting acquainted with themselves and their upper classmates, as well as finding out what high school was all about. Under the supervision of Miss Gracen, the freshman adviser, they elected the following officers to serve them during their first year: Marcus Rodeen, president; Floyd Carlson, vice-president; Lavern Frank, secretary; Mary Lindberg, treasurer. As their representatives to the Student Council they appointed Robert Vinson and Annabelle Hancock. The freshman did not take school for granted like some of the other classes do. They entered into extracurricular activities as well as their usual subjects with much spirit, and showed up well in both. Even though they are justly or unjustly made the brunt of many jokes from the upper classmen, they are as much a part of the school as any other class. During their first fall as freshmen they also held the freshman picnic at a nearby picnic ground.
