'77 Busy Year Landmark Sales The 76-77 yearbook staff sold yearbooks at lunch for three weeks. Every day two people would sit outside, taking money and giving receipts. At times things were slack and staffers could have a good time with a friendg however, other times things were so busy not a word could be said, other than asking for names and homeroom numbers. The staffers' efforts paid off for many entertaining Landmarks were sold to PHS students, who sadly watched their ten dollars disappear. Flowers For Teachers The teacher's at PHS will now be receiving a rose for their birthday presented by the Student Cotmcil.

Will Rogers Ghost Appears In Room 24 Early this year, a group of seniors organized a seance to bring back the ghost of Henry V, in order to learn more about his reign. As the students sat in a circle around a lit can- dle, a mysterious ghostly figure appeared, with a crown on his head, and spoke of historical events in Medieval England. The figure soon disappeared, however, leaving a flaber- gasted class, the members of which swore that the ghostly king had curly, blond hair on his head and legs.

They had to choose from many different styles, shapes, sizes, and colors. They were very anxious to order their rings. Actually, after eleven hard, long years you would be, too. Every- thing went along smoothly until the salesman asked if there were any ques- tions. Along with the reg- ular questions that created mass confusion, there were also many problems. Many of our brightest jun- iors just couldn't figure out on which finger to put the ring! Vitalis Returns To PHS Prior to the football game against Woodruff, on Friday, February 25, 1976, the students aroused spirits around the school to get the players jacked up for victory. As a spe- cial treat the cheerlead- ers asked everyone to put on their bobby socks and to slick back their hair. Many students wore bright red cheeks, dark shades, leather jackets, and calf- length skirts with sweat- ers. Carolyn Bruce and jacky Kackson were awarded prizes at the pep rally for best dressed. Al- so, a dance contest at the rally resulted in a three- way tie between couples fcon't. on p. 232i

A highly trusted source told this reporter that he witnessed an amazing event: Surfing in Pendle- ton. Though he admitted he knew of no waves in the area, he said he was sure he had not been hallucinat- ing. I was cold sober, our source said, forI had just completed a chemistry test.

In ad- dition to gowns, they or- dered announcements, thank -you's, invitations, and calling cards while looking forward to the day they could utilize them. While the Seniors sat thinking of graduation day, the bell rang and jolted all of them back to reality. Never try to make anyone like yourself -you know, and God knows, that one of you is enough, -Ralph Waldo Emerson College Day On October 22, 1976, representatives from col- leges around the State came to talk to the Seniors and to give out brochures.
