Our teacher was Miss Frances Holloway Who tried to teach us something new each day. After that year of getting punishment for being bad, We came to the second grade, where we learned to write. Ye Gad! The third year a certain girl decided to write a love you note. I'll never do it again, I've many times heard her quote. Miss Della Parker passed us to the fourth grade, Where Pauline Kleckler spanked those who only played. Then grade five and the mean, fat, old ugly Miss Conrad--that's what she put in our autograph books. Guess who came to us this year? You're right, 'twas that guy with the looks. Sixth grade with Miss Phillips for a teacher wasn't bad: This year several students were added. Gee, were we glad! Now on to the seventh grade passed a bunch of handsome boys and girls-- Where we had Mrs. Crayton to teach us, the teacher with the golden curls. Then the last year was spent at Central School, With Miss Ruby Sloan, who taught us with an iron rule. This year some certain boys started preparing for P. H. H. S. By shooting paper wads and when asked about it wouldn't confess. Again on a September morn a bunch of green ones came forth, Sixty-four Frosh came from east, west, south and north. This year most of us attended our first formal affair. 'Really was fun! I afterwards heard many declare. This year we had our first king and queen. Kathleen Schindorff and Richard Jones were the best couple ever seen. The second year was better, it seems, V Except for a few who had daydreams. We'd go into a class and not know a thing in the bookg All we could do was sit and look. We had a king and queen again this year: Alice Crawford and David Middleton were our couple so dear. When upperclassmen Juniors we did become, Our membership dropped from fifty-seven to fifty-one. We gave a play this year that earned us lots of dollars, So we could give a banquet to the Senior scholars. Huntley Wilmoth and Jessie McDonald were the king and queen elected. They were the best couple ever selected. Then our king and queen won the Senior year, Ruth Long and Bobby Lees, or did you hear? And during this year we published a yearbook, And had our Senior pictures taken, the best ever took. There are a few of us who, together, have gone through twelve years. They have shared each other's happy moments along with their fears. Jane Keltner, Burnie Burton, Lois Isom, and Phillip Bailey have all gone through, Along with Ruth Ferguson, Rose Clements, Jessie McDonald and George Terrill, too. Add to the list Eileen Stalnaker, Alice Marie Neill, Alfreda Czeschin, and Marjorie Gray, Alice Crawford, Joan Phillips, Ruth Long, Carla Smith, and Ann Herrell have gone all the way. We 49 graduates of forty-nine, To the Juniors wish to assign The honor of being Seniors next year, While each of us pursues a career. 15 4 44' 7 , w we ,Q-ti T- T ,W 'JEL ' XZ? f VV Y? ' Q E .M f .

H. H. S., driving to Mars in the school's drivers' training rocket ship. It was given to the school by Wallace Griffith, the inventor of the great creation. The driving pupil is Alfred Ray Lees, son of the former Alfreda Czeschin and Bobby Lees. Bobby is now coach at P. H. H. S. Eileen Stalnaker is living with the Lees and is now helping Freda to take care of their twin boys and twin girls. Alfreda and Bobby are still hoping Eileen will find the right man someday. ' Upon reaching Mars, Mr. Means is greeted by James Carl George, who is vice president of the planet. Mr. Means then goes to the university, where we find Sam Coleman acting as Dean of Women--and how Sammy likes that Job! Sam is glad that Mr. Means dropped by, because he is anxious to hear about the wonderful, brilliant, industrious class of '49, Sam is, of course, eager to hear about how the students in his D.O. class turned out, so Mr. Means begins his story. Phillip Bailey is now a great scientist and Joan Phillips is his assistant. Phillip is working on a pill whichwill increase life a hundred years, while Joan is just working-- trying to get Phillip to notice her. Alice Crawford has her beauty shop with Ann Herrell, who is married to Bill Cotter. Alice isn't married yet, but Ann is giving her what you would call motherly advice on which of her admirers to choose. Joe Hammons is owner of the biggest, most modern filling station in the big metropolis of Strasburg, mainly because it is the only station there. Vernon Henry is his assistant. Rose Clements and Mildred Feldkamp are partners in a restaurant in New York. Duane Herrick has his funeral home in Washington, D. C. One day Duane met Earl Hand, who told him he had been unable to become an F. B. I. man because he was too short. Duane hired him for his body guard--er--a--I mean as guard for his bodies. George Terril is now an excellent electrician fat least he is an electricianl. Incidentally, he works at the Sing-Sing Prison running the electric chair. Jimmie Mclntyre is now editor of the P. H. Times, and Lavoy Lewis is his typist. She still has hopes of marrying the boss. Billy Joe Kennedy owns a big orange farm in California. Don Ross also wanted to have a lot of space so he is now owner of the largest ranch in Colorado. Hazel Wright and Sue Mitchellare now great dancers. Bubbles fHazelj is doing a bubble dance in Billy Rose's Diamond Horseshoe and Sue is traveling with a ballet show. She gother start dancing at the Rat Race. There she was spied bya producer who gave- her the big break she'd been waiting for. Ruth Long and Ruth Ferguson are still at M. U. It's not that they couldn't pass, but because of the enormous number of men down there. The girls are staying in order to find themselves a husband. Imogene Hedrick is now the owner ofthe largest drugstore in the world. Calbert Enterline is a preacher at the First Christian Church in K. C. You remember Roena Hammond? She is married to Edsel and is living on a pig farm in Indiana. Marjorie Gray is married to Don and is living on a farm near Holden. While her husband is busy farming, Marjorie is running the Gray Supply Store at Holden. Dorothy and Mildred Comer are working in Kansas City. Neither one is married, because they can't make up their minds which of the boys in Kansas City to rope--er--oh--I mean to accept. Buddy Taylor and Lavonne Viles are married and are living on a chicken farm in Arkansas. They have 30,000 chickens and four children. Buddy cou1dn't decide which were the most expensive, children or chickens, so they thought they would try their luckat both. Lois Isom is living on an onion farm with her husband, Mr. Jim Onion Clark. Jessie Ann McDonald is married to Harry and runs her own theater in Manhattan, Kansas. Wilma Steele is head nurse in an animal hospital in Death Valley. It has just been called that since Wilma started working there. Davidray Middleton has been chief engineer for the Stafford Construction Co. 18 since he marriedinto the family. Willard Norton is the foreman of this great company. Eloise McCarty is a space ship hostess and makes daily trips from the United States to Venus. Hazel Francy is a telephone operator in the Waldorf Hotel. At this point, Mr. Means tells Sam that these are all of the students of the '49 class that he has been able to keep up with. Sam says he thinks maybe Huntley Wilmoth, who is one of the coaches at Mars University, might know about the others. After locating Huntley the story goes on. Hunky says he has heard that Chester Spiwak, Robert Leslie, and H. G. Schmoll all live on a farm and are bachelors. Robert was going to get married once, but Chester and H.

Norma Ware The student council and its advisor, Mr. Means, act as the governing body of our school. It is their job to see that the problems and ideas of the student body as a whole are discussed and acted upon. The council acts as the students' voice by bringing these ideas and suggestions before the school adrninistration. They plan the all-school parties and have charge of various other activities in the school. These activities are important, if successfully carried out, and even more important, if the members of the council andthe students who electedthem profit educationallythrough them. If no such profit results, the time and effort spent have been wasted. - The student council is, in short, a laboratory for citizenship, and a working example of our democracy. 53 MAJORETT g t: Alice Marie Neill, Darlene Foote, Helen Elliott, Kathleen Schindorff, Louise Yadon, Sue Yadon, Alfreda Czeschin STANDING: Lois lsom, Eloise McCarty, Shirley Neff, Nellie Jo Bricker.

The gaily colored formals of the girls blended with the more conservative tones of the boys' suits and added the final touch of gayety to the occasion. The music was furnished by some of the country's leading bands, compliments of the phonograph, of course. Refreshments consisted of punch and cookies, compliments ofthe home ec. girls.

Besides square dancing there was round dancing, and even a few card games were in progress. A'few accommodating freshman girls served up the refreshrnents which consisted of sandwiches, lemonade and cookies.
