TEACHERS ENJOY TIME OUT OF CLASS Each teacher at PHS will he long renieiiiberecl for some im- iisiial characteristic. Who will ever forget Col. Llovd’s eticiuette lessons, jokes, and ties . . . Coach Payne’s, “We all live in the United . . . What?” In English, we listen to “The Bells ' from Miss Evans and, “But surely you ' e read the Nci- hchin ciiUcd,” from Mr. Suther- land. In science Mr. Leete’s grin will always he remembered, and Mr. yVlexander’s jokes add interest to the math department. Each of these teachers help make life at PHS interesting. TIic familiar faces of these two teach- ers, Miss Gwaltney and Miss Morgan, are always on hand in the mornings to greet students arriving on the second floor. In a classic pose, Miss Evans and Mr. Alexander seem always to use the doorway of .31.5 for their daily confer- ences. Two new members of the faculty, Mr. Quist and Mr. Morris, somehow find time to relax during class change. fourteen
