Hear Ve. Hear Ve We, the members of the Senior Class of P.H.S., thinking ourselves to be of sound mind and body do bequeath the following cherished possessions to the underclassmen of this institution, in this present year, 1953 AD: In desperate need of assistance, George Cass leaves some of his curls to Eddie Wheeler. Willie Taylor leaves his quiet classroom manner to Bill Andrews. Jim Shea leaves the Senior Boys’ pictures of Marilyn Monroe to Ted Hofer and Bob Hadden - don’t fight boys!

Phil Bailey just leaves - as he has done before. Norma Clark leaves her ability to be cooperative to Paul Lavoie. Dale Livingston leaves all her man problems to Kathy Shea and Nancy Price.

You can use this ability to get alongwithMr. Cowgi 11, Doug. Lorna N i eme I a leaves her slow voice to that miniature Walter Winchell, George Taft.

Nancy Winton leaves her problems as senior class secretary to the next secretary of the senior class. Dolly Waite leaves her seat at the back of Room 19 beside John Twomey, to Elaine Florre, for memory’s sake. With a sigh of relief we all leave Ann Shultz’s gift of gab to Margaret Egan. To Ann Hill, Buddy Charest leaves his ability to fall asleep in class (plus a bottle of sleeping pills, just in case). Linnea Farhm and Eleanor Myhaver leave those Jaffrey and Hancock boys to Sylvia Eastman and Barbara Ervin, who we know will take good care of them. Dorothy Chase leaves all the money lost on our Junior Prom and Senior Ball to the juniors, who we hope will make better use of it. Beryl Townsend leaves her assorted sweaters to any girl inP.H.S. that dare wear them as well. To Mike O'Dell, Jim Yakov ak i s leaves his ability to run away from girls. Do with it as you please, Mike. Joan Picard leaves her basketball form to the person with the best figure in P.H.S. - Dave Gavitt. Theresa LaFontaine leaves her title as first to be engaged to Mary Marcotte and Donny LaFontaine. Violet Cilley leaves her cheery, good-morning smile to Mr. Trufant. Judy Johns leaves her trip from Francestown to Peterborough to any two people who want to become better acquainted. Elaine Pellerin and Bob Durkee leave a seat for two in Room 38 to Gail Faunce and Stevie Gilbert. Buddy Charest, Jim Yakovakis, and John Dacey, also leave their Commu- nistic views to Miss Thomas to use at her discretion. The Senior Boys leave their jokes to the Junior Boys, who really don’t need them. The Seniors leave their forgotten manners and respectful courtesy in classes, to the Students of P.H.S., who we hope will use it to more advantage. To the Faculty, the Seniors leave an abundant supply of ear plugs, conveniently placed in Room 38. This we claim as our last will and testament, this last day of our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-three.
