tilIg2i.'li1Q.,,-f.'JAG'-.f . Class Hmsroav ' It was in the fall of '37 that we, the proud Freshmen of P. H. S., took our rightful position in lligh School. We were a bit green we will now admit, but as all other Freshmen before us, we thought that we were sitting on top of the world. The days came and went each filled with classes and study periods entirely different from what we had been accustomed to in Grade School. C Our first year marched happily away and as a yearly event our Freshmen teachers took us to the movies. That year we enjoyed Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs . Then we were separated for three short months. The following September about fifty lively Sophomores enterv ed The New High School Building' which contained a better equipped library than we had the previous year. During-this year our class boasted three or four basket ball players- iwhoi helped bring our High School teams home victorious. Miss Gibson organized a Glee Club in which many Sophomores took part. An exciting trip to the newly completed Norris Dam brought our Sophomore year to a close. Our junior year arrived on wings, and we helped it fly along. Mr. Mitchell began organizing a band, which has proved to be a cred'- it to our school. Near the end of school we took a trip to Big Ridge Park, one of the most out-standing trips of High School Days. VVe returned to start planning our junior and Senior Banquet which was held on May lst and carried out the May Day idea with Evelyn Kirk as May Queen au:l Mary Arden Skaggs, Ruth Campbell, Virginia Lee Brooks and Virginia Pegg as her court. The courteous Seniors, to show their gratitude for such a lovely banquet, honored us with a dance given at the Commercial Hotel. Thus we came to the end of our thirdfjiappy year of High School. ,rt V is , l ,. .an 'i l, ylz fa. 1 v li 1 2 bu , V ax. . 5 .34 .1 ir' .fr Q N lm ' W5 ev?
