A, A- J f if A 5 , ' iii ' - gil t sf , , 1 'Z 5 Cfaad itlidforg In the fall of 1948, twenty four frisky, mischievous freshmen started high school life. We were those freshmen and we were expecting initiation. After a lot of suspense we were finally initiated and when those seniors were finished, so were we. But they suddenly became very kind-hearted and gave us a party that night. Later on we had a wonderful class party at Sunset Park. Some of our teachers during that green year were: Mr. Bauman, Mr. Coppess, Mrs. Andrews, Mrs. Frey, and Mr. Dolby. At our first class meeting we elected Bill Johnson, President, Bob Bowen, Vice-President, Sally McCullough, Secretary, Richard Young, Treasurer, and Mr. Coppess, Sponsor. When we arrived for our Sophomore year, some of our schoolmates were missing. Bob Mitchell, Ruth Johnson, Charlie Hawkins, and Norma Kiser had entered other schools, but with our new school chum, Phyllis Moser, our enrollment was boosted to 21 members. Promptly we elected our class officers. John Bilderback, President, Bonnie Roe, Vice-President, Kay Miller, Secretary, and Sally McCullough, Treasurer. Some of our teachers in our Sophomore year were Mr. Jacobs, Mr. Higgins, Mr. Hick- man, Mrs. Risser, Mr. Smallwood, and Mr. Vizard. Four exciting things happened: Marilyn and Bonnie were elected second team cheerleaders, we started our school band again, our boys played on both teams and our class party was held at the school house. But the most exciting part of our sophomore year was receiving our class rings QI mean buying theml. After a lively summer we bounced back to P. M. H. S. to become jaunty juniors. We elected Colleen Evans, President, Sally McCullough, Vice-President, Alice Hirschy, Secretary, and Grace Baltzell, Treasurer, and Mr. Garrett, Sponsor. We welcomed sweet Alice Hirschy, and Charlie Hawkins into our class and regretted the loss of Roberta Roebuck, Barbara Irwin and Carrie Drake. Our Junior play was directed by Mr. Garrett and was entitled His Ozark Cousins . The cast included Bob Bowen, Bob Noll, Marilyn Noll, Myrna Foor, Colleen Evans, Bonnie Roe, Alice Hirschy, Sally Mc Cullough, Glen Bauman, John Burkhart, John Bilderback, and Kay Miller. Hurrah! Now we are brilliant, dignified, sophisticated seniors. Besides getting two new principals in one year, we also welcomed Nancy Custard fa cute little mis- chiefb into the class. Our exciting and nervous trip to Robert's Studio was an experience to tell our grandchildren about. The County Tourney and the yearbook also created quite a stir this year. Our class officers are Sally McCullough, President, John Burk- hart, Vice-President, Marily Noll, Secretary, Nancy Custard, Treasurer, and Mrs. Andrews, Sponsor. We are all looking forward to graduation and the class trip, two events which have been our cherished dream since we began high school. lm 0 'W y A Who's the musician? ....... ....
