Each offering his undivided efforts, members of the 1943- 44 year administration have successfully blended war- time influences into conventional patterns of teaching to perfect an educational administration which facilitates cur- rent world demands. A concentration of heavy work has burdened both instruc- tor and student during the school year when America's efforts were being taxed for ultimate victory on the war fronts. Acting through the school board, the administration has proven especially responsive in encouraging and sponsoring the many extra-curricular activities, in addition to conducting classes and fulfilling pressing needs.

SENIOR CLASS OFFICEIS President KoU) Martin Vice President Bill Fuller Secretary Jaune £Pms Treasurer Batty Gardner D One hundred and eleven strong, the class of '44 leapt into P. H. S. a whole month behind schedule. For in that year an epidemic of infantile paralysis swept the country. Whether it was the epidemic, leap-year, or the crazy world, the class of '44 has been different in every respect than that of its predecessors. After readjustments, the school settled down to its usual routine. More active freshmen got themselves elected to Student Council where they distinguished themselves. Mary Ann became a permanent fixture, being a representative of her class for all four years ascending to the presidency in her junior year. Our other fresh- men representatives of whom we were and arc justly proud were Keith Martin. Patty Miles, and Sis Webster. Our Social Instincts were awakened by the annual class party. Typically, with Hushed faces and racing pulses, we set out to attend the social function of that school year. Under the direction of Patty Miles, the party proceeded as usual. However, some students fitted into other patterns. Lincoln High was made very proud by her musical pirants. Maurice Wood, Mary Klaine Redick, and Devon Thomas were members of the trombone quartet that placed first in the National Music Contest at Flint, Michigan. Also placing second in the piano solo divisio was Mary Berger. Luckily, we were one jump ahead of rationing. Those who achieved outstanding records during their freshman year were honored at the Honor Banquet which was sponsored by the Kiwanis Club. Those who were privileged to attend were Galeman Dexter, Phylis Young, David Goodrich. Mary Berger. Maryclaine Rcdick, Maurice Wood, and Devon Thomas. Thus our freshman year marked us as outstanding material. C !tat C 6
