si I TWENTY-sux Senior Class History On a sunny morning in September, 1942, we returned to school and were very proud, for we were Sophomores.

We also ordered our rings. The design was selected by the class of 1943, and has been accepted as the permanent design for school rings. One year of our high school had elapsed and we were now Juniors. X'Ve had lost two of our classmates, who joined the armed services. YVe immediately settled down to the task of organizing our class, since we had many activities to plan for this year. Under the leadership of our class 4-4464 1 l

advisers, Miss Esther B. Dennis and Miss Flora M. Lobb, we elected the follow- ing officers: President ........... ....... G ERRY CRAWFORD Vice-President .... ..... R OBERT HUGHES Secretary ......... ............ J OE ROGERS Treasurer .........................................,.......i.............. NTAYNARD BEAL We then selected our class motto, the class flower, and the class colors. The next thing on our program was the selection of our class hats, pennants, neckties, and emblems. - Since we had to begin raising money for our Senior year, we conducted a very successful magazine campaign. Prizes were given to those who partic' ipated. In order to increase our funds, the class sponsored two dances, one which was held in the high school gymnasium, and the other being held at the Bank Hall. The music was furnished by LeRoy Metz's Orchestra. VVe were deeply grieved to learn of the passing of one of our classmates, Jeanne Albert. A beautiful spray of flowers was sent by the class in respect to her memory. Several members of our class also took part in the annual junior Prize- Speaking contest, with several prizes of money being awarded. The two activities of the year that we all eagerly looked forward to were our Prom held in the high school gymnasium on April 28, 1944, and our Banquet held at Pocono Manor on May 26, 1944. At last we became the dignified Seniors of the school. XVe had added work and responsibilities this year. We elected our class ofiicers under the supervision of our Senior Class advisers, Miss Allen More and Mrs. Edna Imhof. They were as follows: President ........... ...... S HERwoon CASE Vice-President ...... ............ D ALE CASSLER Secretary .................. ...... 'I 'HERESA ALBANESE Assistant Secretary ...... ....,..... L oU1sE CONFER Treasurer ..............,. .. .,...... JAMES PALMER Assistant Treasurer .................................,. ................ A IEAN RAINES We conducted a second magazine campaign and sponsored the Thanks- giving dance, which was also a Victory Dance. It was so named due to our football team's winning the annual Thanksgiving Day Football game with Bangor High School, our rival school. Our two main activities for this year were our Prom, held in the high school gymnasium on April 13, and the Banquet held at Pocono Manor on May 4. These activities all passed into the background as we looked forward to Class Day, Baccalaureate, and Commencement. W'e conclude our high school history, with a prayer that Victory will come very soon and that we may have a just and lasting peace. XV ith this hope, our high school days at P. A. H. S. come to a close. SHIRLEY MlLI.liR 9535?-P TweNIY sevt N
