Venma vAL, E, THE MISSILE STAFF, proclaim this, our 1956 yearbook, an an- w thentic record of our achievements in work and in play. We have chosen the Olympic games as our theme, as the tradi- tions of these celebrations are closely related to the spirit and growth of the students. The Olympic emblem, the torch, is especially ap- IDropriate to symbolize the high and everlasting inspiration of each class which has carried it. The torch that has been carried for many years has finally passed into our hands. The flame glows with eternal fire, yet it will flicker. As the flame fights to keep alive, so will the students of P. H. S. fight to keep it a living symbol forever. They will fight to overcome the disappointments and to cope with the unfortunate situations which life provides. It is the duty of this, the class of 1956, to preserve the light, that it may be passed down to future classes with the same vigor and spark as it had when it was handed down to us.
