HDMINISTRQTICDN OWS ciaolgacvwl As we bring to a close another successful year of learning and fun together, we want to thank Professor Supt. I- B- FOrSYlh Forsyth and the school board for their excellent guidance. Every morning when we climbed the old Hill of Knowledge we were met by our genial professor, I. B. Forsyth. At the parties he was always there to help us have a good time. Of course, there were days when things would change from the bright to the gloomy side of life, but they all seemed to tum out all right. The school is greatly indebted to our fine school board for the fine work they did in carrying on the business affairs of the school. Whenever the school needed anything they tumed to Otto Shearer, Alfred Poole, and Dr. R. F. Searl, our board for the school year of 1948-49. Mr- Otto Shearer Mr. Alfred Poole Dr. R. F.

The school year of 1945-46 found forty-three eager freshmen ready to com- plete their education on the hill, The eventful year was under the leadership of Harold Leisure presidentg Barbara. Farmer, vice president: Barbara Palling, secre- taryg Don Parker, treasurerg and our sponsors, Mrs. Forsyth and Mrs. Ridlon. We won first place in the paper drive and the All School Carnival, with Floe Ritchal and David Shearer representing our class. During our Sophomore year, we continued battling for first place in all the contests. Again we took first place in the paper drive. The 'Forty-Niners have al- ways participated and have been well represented in all activities and athletics of P. H. S. Under the guidance of Barbara Palling, David Shearer, Henry Christman, Betty Jamesg our sponsors, Mrs. Barrier and Mr. Frisbie, We were still going strong in leadership among the classes. Our Junior year was a very triumphant one. We presented the Junior play While Wifey's Away on the evening of December 16, 1947. The annual Junior- Senior banquet was another hit of the season, with Moonlight and Roses as the theme. We won first place in the All School Carnival contest, with Betty James and Henry Christman as our candidates. Under the supervision of Wilber-t Phalen, presi- dentg Arlene Gatlin, vice president: Betty James, secretaryg Clyde Secrest, treasurerg our sponsors, Miss Yencic and Mrs. Forsyth, the class advanced further up the hill of knowledge. At last the 39 Forty-Niners reached the climax of a long hard struggle. With an air of dignity, We chose our class officers for our most important year. They were: David Shearer, president, Billy Bob Saunders, vice presidentg Dan Parker, secretary, and Wilbert Phalen, treasurer. Again we were in there to win, and we succeeded in winning the Annual contest, with Billy Joe Cobb and Elaine Wright as our representatives. The Senior play Calling All Girls was presented and was exclaimed to be a hit by all who attended. We were guided through this eventful year by Miss Coghill and Mr. Forsyth. The many Senior activities occupied our time, and we soon reached the peak of our high school education when we received our long-awaited diplomas on May 24. l .

The play was under the direction of Miss Louise Miller. The wealthy George Ricker didn't know what he was getting into when he asked his lawyer, Jim Hilton, to find a wife for his studious nephew, David Ricker. The fact that five girls showed up as determined husband-hunters definitely confused matters. David's three old maid aunts disapproved of such a marriage and their ef- forts to prevent it added up to one of -the gayest plays ever presented at P. H. S. ?r,TW. i i I 2 5 v 5 2 L. GTI-IEE CLHSSES We 5 Under the direction of our class sponsors, Miss Yencic and Mr. Stuhblefield, the Junior Class had another successful school year. The class presented the pl-ay, 'The Gay Pretenders, on December 7, 1948. Wit'h the cooperation of the class members and under the direction of Miss Miller, the play was presented before an appreciative audience. During the Christmas season the class sold pencils and gave away chances on a turkey, the proceeds being used to finish paying for the back drop stage curtain pur- chased when we were Freshmen. The J unior-Senior Banquet was in May, at which time we entertained the Seniors, proved to be the outstanding event of the year.

The Blu-Jays had 5 very unusual season. They began with a big bang by winning the first game from a strong Arcadia team. Misfortune struck and they lost a. few games. But they fought back hard to win again. The Blu-Jays improved as the season went along and won their last game overwhelmingly. Prospects for another year look much brighter. And the Blu-Jays are looking forward to a very successful season next year.

The Blu-Jays came through again this year with one ot their winning basket- ball seasons. The Blu-Jays were again overtaken by their Regional Tournament jinx when they lost to Eudora after winning twenty-four games. In accomplishing this record, the Jays scored 1,440 points to their opponents 704 points. Bob Foreman, junior center for the Blu-Jays, was high-point man for the second consecutive year. Bob maintained a hot pace throughout the season for an average of over 22 points a game for 22 games. He scored the amazing total of 114 points in the 3-day County Tournainent. This is the last season for squad members Harold Leisure, David Shearer, Del- mer Smith, Vernon Lindell, Billy Bob Saunders, Don Leon Parker, Jim Robbins and Norman Gray.
