SOPHOMORE CLASS NEWS If you had visited P. H. S. on the first day of school, you would have seen nine happy sophomores returning to school. They were: Nancy Adams, Ann Bryant, Basil Coolidge, Alden Phillips, Carolyn Thayer, Robert Thayer, Vera Varney, Jerome Walsh, and Ann Yonker. Roger Greenough left us in our freshman year. Later this year Jerome Walsh left us to go to Holyoke, Massachusetts. Our class officers remained the same. They were: President, Basil Coolidge, Vice-President, Alden Phillips, Secretary, Ann Bryant, and Treasurer, Jerome Walsh. The class adviser was Miss. Dawson. In October the Freshman Initiation was sponsored by our class. Each freshman portrayed a radio character and a mock radio program was conducted, with Basil Coolidge as master of ceremonies. It was very successful. Ann Bryant '52 FRESHMAN CLASS NEWS On September 7, 1949 eleven freshman students came back to school babbling about summer vacation. They were! Eva Adams, Barbara Barnes, Judy Bates, Marilee Burnham, Marilyn Edwards, Flora Fisher, Elizabeth Gunter, William Hood, Jane Iott, Clarke Johnson, and Betty Russell. The class officers were: President, Marilee Burnham, Vice- President, Elizabeth Gunter, Secretary, Betty Russell, and Treasuren Barbara Barnes. The class reporter for the school newspaper was Jane Iott. Our class adviser was Mrs. Phillips. Freshman Initiation was held October 7, in the town hall, and I think the sophomores provided a grand one. All the freshmen were good sports about participating. I think everyone would agree it was an especially good initiation program. A freshman girl, Barbara Barnes, was head cheerleader this year, and she did a wonderful job of putting school spirit into every 'Petershamarian' . Two freshman girls, Barbara Barnes and Jane Iott, took part in the annual oratorlcal contest this year. Jane took second prize and Barbara took third. The Freshman Sports Dance was held March 51. This was the only activity sponsored by our class this year. Next year it will be our turn to put on Freshman Initiation. We already have plans brewing and we hope it will be as good as ours was. See you next year! Jane Iott '53
