CHORUS From her walls still echo footsteps Of the great in fame, All who tread thy halls, so stately Ever love thy name. Sing her praises, never ceasing We shall ever cry, Thee we honor, Alma Mater Honor Philo High. LIFE’S FOUNDATION This life of ours is like building a house A house of materials strong The foundation we build must be firm The size matters not-—whether short or long But the materials we use must be of the best Maybe brick or clay or wood or stone Something that will last through the years Something that won’t leave you all alone When the going is rough and the times are hard You know not where to turn You’ll have a house to go to If you’ve built it strong and firm And so it is with life today And the life of all our tomorrows We must build a foundation strong Have joys for remembrance, not sorrows Our teachers and parents have helped us thus far But now we are on our own What will we make of this life on earth Will we stand all alone So with the help of God And of a foundation strong I say to you fellow classmates God bless you, good luck, and so long.

FAIR Page Six I Page Seven CLASS HISTORY (TW7) Many were the remarks heard in Philo High School in the fall of 1947 to this ef¬ fect:: “And that Freshman Class, it’s the largest, best, and peppiest class that has ever entered Philo.’’ This class was a whirlwind of brains, knowledge, true loyal spirit, and really active vim, vitality and vigor. There were 53 of us. Anita Sims was our homecoming attendant. We had representatives on both the football and reserve basketball teams. Everyone appreciates a Sophomore. He is one of the seven wonders of the world. Other wonders being electricity, teleg¬ raphy, and thunder. No doubt this ac¬ counts for the way the Seniors smiled on us even after having had only one years’ companionship with us. Even the Fresh¬ men realize our worth. In this class there were 50. Ruby Boice withdre v at the end of the year, and Ed Supplee moved to Zanesville. Roy Rouch, Jack Beckwith, Jane Groves, and Jerry Groves entered the Sophomore year. Jo Anne Pennybaker was a cheerleader and Nancy MacLaine was our homecoming attendant. We were represented on the football team by Richard Torbert, Charles Pletcher, Walter Wilson, Emerson Payne, Jack Beckwith, John Janusz, Lee Kreis, and Ralph and Gary Bailey. Torbert, Payne, Janusz, Farris, and Beckwith, were on the reserve basketball team. Kreis was on the varsity. Every year of our high school life has been better and we would tell Sophomores of the privileges before them, but we can¬ not; it can be learned only by experience, so we could only wish them luck. This year Richard Harrison and Esther Harman entered, and Phyllis Archer returned from West Virginia, Jaunita Drumm, Murl Wal¬ lace, and Tom Shook didn’t return. Ralph and Gary Bailey moved to Zanesville. This made a total of 51. We had a busy year with athletics, giving our class play, “You Can’t Take It With You” and sponsoring the successful “Spring Prom.” Dorothy White was our attendant to the queen. Our class rings were ordered and received. Out of the mist of four years high school experience we come—Seniors! Some of us are jolly, some eager, some solemn, some quiet, some laughing, some dreamy-eyed; some of us with hearts and souls armed with courage and others uncertain and hes¬ itant. Very near and dear to our hearts has grown the Alma Mater that has given us such priceless blessings during the time spent here and ever the same message they will send back when we are gone.

Two of the three reserve cheerleaders also cam e from 109. They were: Barbara Kries and Sandra Lynch. Class dues were collected by taxing each person 25 cents every six weeks. Thanks to the teachers for their co-operation and help. Without them we would still be bewildered freshmen. PATTY DALTON FRESHMAN HOME ROOM 117 On September 6, 1951, forty students entered room 117. That day will always remain in our memories. Our home room teachers, Mr. Dilley and Mr. Fulwider greeted us at the door. The first thing that made us feel at home was initiation. The Seniors were very glad to torture us with lipstick. Yes sir, those days we will never forget! Now as we move on through the days comes elec¬ tion day.

This picture was taken in the last game of the year against New Con¬ cord. We had a record of eight straight victories until this time. By winning this game 16-6 New Concord was able to tie with us for the M. V. L. championship. In the picture John Janusz is about to stop Bob Atkinson (66) after a short gain around left end.

These boys were divided into seven teams with senior boys as captains. One complete round was played in order to determine the strength of each team. After the first round was played a meeting was called and the teams were more evenly divided. The team that wins the championship will get its name placed on the intra-mural trophy, which is displayed in the trophy case. The games were played at noon with a large number of the student body attending. Members of the var¬ sity and reserve basketball teams acted as referees. We wish to thank Mr. Hatfield for the time and effort he has spent in the development of our intra-mural program.

PATTY HUTSON Page Thirty-three Page Thirty-four U PLANE GEOMETRY ALGEBRA II ALGEBRA I Mr. Barclay, our principal, teaches three of the high school math classes this year: Algebra I, Plane Geome¬ try, and Algebra II. In Algebra I, there are 49 pupils, the largest number ever to take this subject. Because of the size, the class is separated into two sections. In Plane Geometry there are 12 boys and girls. In Algebra II there are only six boys. This subject is the highest form of math given this year. We hope that the pupils do as well this year in the scholarship tests given at New Concord as they have in the past. Last year there were three winners out of six in math. In Plane Geometry the two pupils that took the test were first and second in the county. In Al¬ gebra II one of the two that took the test was first in the county. JERRY LITTLE Page Thirty-five ENGLISH I ENGLISH II SPEECH CLASS SPEECH MISS FORBES The aims are improvement of voice, with particular training on prepara¬ tion and delivery of speeches for spe¬ cial occasions; debate, panel discus¬ sions, and reading. A rather large part of the year has been devoted to dramatics, culminating in Senior Class Play and in a Nativity Play which was given as the Christmas program. FRENCH II We have only five members in the French II class. They are Carol Brown, Ani ta Sims, JoAnne Penny- baker, Bonnie Waxier, and Emerson Payne. The course consists of trans¬ lation of stories and study of French idioms, irregular verbs and vocabu¬ lary. We enjoy carrying on conver¬ sation in the French language. Through the study of the French language we learn a great deal about the life, customs, and history of the French people. LATIN II There are eight in Second Year Latin, three boys and five girls. We have read the stories of Hercules, Ulysses, and the Argonauts. Most of the second semester is devoted to Cae¬ sar’s Gaullic War. We find our Latin helpful in vocabulary building and in giving and understanding of English grammar. One recitation period each two weeks is devoted to mythology Latin games such as vocabulary games. Two students from the class have charge of each of these pro¬ grams. ENGLISH I and III In the English I and English III courses we divide our time among the study of literature, English and com¬ position. Most students enjoy the short stories, one-act plays and the narrative poems which we read. Oral English helps the students to gain poise and confidence.

The first two are laboratory sciences with three lecture periods and four lab periods a week. The latter one is a course taught regularly five days a week. DRIVER’S EDUCATION In the biology class, which has 30 pupils, a study is made of the compo¬ sition of cells, plants, animals, and man. Animals are bisected to observe the arrangement of the organs, leaves are collected to make a study of trees. The physics class, having nine pu¬ pils, studies the character of light, sound, heat, metals, and mass. Exper¬ iments are performed to help illustrate the text material. Senior Science, with 26 pupils, studies general science taking in ev¬ erything that a person should know about science. One subject that is not directly con¬ nected with science, but which Mr. Dilley teaches, is drivers’ education. This class lasts one semester and it is to teach students how to drive. It teaches safety along with the driving. This course uses the latest method of teaching by use of motion pictures.
