Just talking to my baby. Hey, fellas!! During a long school day, there are many things that the student of today finds that it is a must to do. Some of them have a specific time of the day that they walk by a telephone to talk to their girls. Talking on the telephone is a pastime that does just that, help you to pass the time. There are many ways to pass the time at Dear Ole PHS, but the most popular is to just hang out with a few friends until it is time to go to the next class. The five minutes that we have between each class X is just a short time, but all of us find the time to converse for a few moments be- fore it is time to put our noses back to the grindstone for the next class on our agen- da. Yes, our day in school may seem long, but the feeling always shortens asi we meet up with our friends and have some good conversation over a bag of chips and an occasional soda. JUST I-IANGI G CUT i Q K What should we do now?

Ev- eryone was ready to see the contestants compete for Miss Homecoming, 1985- 86. Although everyone of the contestants were anxious about speaking to the stu- dent body, it helped to be cheered on by the crowd, The spirit of the student body was really heightened when the members of the football team stood to show their approv- al of the candidates. The team wore their Wave jerseys and sat together. This pre- sented a united front to the whole student body, thus, giving confidence to all of PHS. Escorts for the contestants were provided I by the JROTC. The cadets gave a pol- l ished performance in the pageant. They are always a welcomed addition to every formal occasion here at PHS. Thanks a million, Soldiers! Sllllliffll l.ifi'f2'i f

Between classes, during lunch, or at the end of school, these are the times that we, as students, use to socialize with our friends. While we are socializing there are plenty opportunities to discuss events of the day or things outside of school. A break between classes would not seem appropriate if some- one did not head for the snack machines or the soda machines. After a class of hard work, a little something to eat really hits the spot. LIVI GI Pl-IS Just a little girl talk Johnnie, why are you trying to steal the soda? Q If only there were something to do. A school day would not be a school day without an abundance of friends with whom to share a bit of laughter and fun. Every night when we hang up our phones, our last few words are, See you at schoolf, When we first arrive in school in the mornings, we know where to go to find our own crowd and we then proceed to huddle in our own little cliques. We discuss things of relevance and things that are very unimportant, but most of all we speak of our boyfgirl friends. ln- stead of going to class early, a little time is always needed to talk over the events that have happened and about the things that we have planned for the future. This all goes back to the old saying that goes, Friends, everybody has to have them, friends, those we can depend on. 27fStudent Life
