THOMAS J. MELTON Sditor-in-Ohief SCORE Within every student body there are at least a few students with initiative, drive, foresight, imagination, and, above all, de- sire to build prestige for their Alma Mater and create harmony among their fellow class- mates. With a student body as small as ours, we are extremely lucky to have such a vast number of these people who induce cohesive- nesB between student body and faculty. Through the work of the Student Organi- zation, our school paper materialized into the student ' s voice . Then, from an idea came a dream: a dream of a student yearbook that would reflect the personality of P.M. A. throughout its pages. A yearbook that would build prestige for the school, show the har- mony within harmony, and serve as a lasting memore of our friends, experiences, and, above all, our struggle to educate ourselves so that we may be capable of attaining our goals in life and helping others to attain theirs. That dream materialized into a plan, which in turn was taken up as a project by those of us who wished it to become the reality that it now has become. Finally, after hours of concentration, days of planning, weeks of hoping, months of working, and a school year of tireless efforts we have finished our plans to create in reality our first P.M. A. yearbook, SCORE. ROY 3URRSLL Faculty Advisor SHELDON KOHAN Senior Class Representative ED:1ABI NEIFELD Business ' Manager

This year marks many new innocatione for P.M. A. We have a now school; new year- book and the advent of a newspaper. FANFARE is dedicated as the voice of the students . In trying to establish a paper with this ideal in mind, we must search for infor- mation which will aid the students and benefit them. Also, in the same instance, we must open our newspaper to any major or minor issues, no matter what the subject, which might be pertinent to the students and perhaps eventually form a better school for them. As with any new institution, there is always need for revision and improvement. Because of this we will be turning from the graduating seniors to the incoming freshmen in September. This will be the beginning of a new staff and a corps to carry on the work. They will be the major factor in keeping our newspaper a welcome addition to the school.
