Francis Dunham: vice-president, Gene johnson: secretary, june johnson: and treasurer, Beverly O'Brien, Our class sponsor is Mrs. Mae Niswender. As the school year progressed a few of our members were forced to leave our ranks. Berneice Long transferred to Dallas while Anna Marie Van Ryswyk left us to be educated in the job of being a housewife. We presented a very exciting play, Let Me Out of llere , and a reminiscent pantomime, Memories . We, too, can boast of having a share in the high school sextette. Martyna Van Helten is our representative. We have six girls in Glee Club. We can give plays and sing, but that isn't all. We can play football and basketball as well. Seven boys were out for football and six were out for basketball. There were four girls out for basketball. We also had eleven boys out for track. We shall not forget the two girls who went out for declamatory. They were Mary Hollingsworth and Marilyn johnson. Marilyn won first in the home elimination contest. I4

SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the graduating class of l947, realize, since we will soon be discarding our textbooks to set forth into the world, that the student body of dear old PHS will miss our merry laughter, the ferocious banging of lockers, and all the little things that go to represent the boisterous seniors. We feel that we will need to leave a few of our most valuable possessions, including personal traits as well as treasures, which have been solemnly sworn in proper form, in this, our last will and testament. To the faculty we leave our ability to cooperate in even the smallest matters. Not that we feel that we can get along without it, because we know we will be needing it in the future. .To the juniors we leave our superior air of being seniorsf llelen Batten leaves her ability to do book- keeping to Bonnie Gifford.
