The Teens of Plymouth celebrate CI football victory f 2 . INSIDE P. H. S On Friday evening, October fifteenth, the citizens of Plymouth witnessed a colorful parade with gayly decorated floats which had been made by the high school organiza- tions. The following clubs had floats in the parade: Hi-Y, Student Council, Brush and Pal- ette, G.A.A. and S.S.S. The Plymouth High School Band led the parade. The Queen was brought on the football field in a beautiful red convertible. The band played a triumphant march while she was djiven to the fifty yard line. The Queen, Iean Beals, and her court, Iean Postlewaite and Elaine Garber, were helped from the car. At this moment the field lights were turned out and a spotlight was put on the queen. She was then led to the throne, where she was crowned and presented with flowers by the president of the student council, Herby Wathen. The election of the queen and the planning of the parade and the crowning were both done under the supervision of the student council. The flowers for the queen and her court were provided by the High School Athletic Association. The expert handling of the car and the spotlight was done by two P.H.S. boys - Charles Florian and Budd Treat. YELL LEADERS . . .

Some of our experiences have proven quite humorous as indicated by the informal snapshots presented here. k Learning - Inside P.H'. . WW Nm fn W X, u u ,-..-use --a-au... M- f x Nw M F FW ..:-.. . THE SIX DIVISIONS . . For the convenience of the students, the courses uinside P.H.S. are divided into six main divisions. ln this sort of specialization the students' interest in their work is re- tained. Together with various extra subjects, these courses - industrial arts, home eco- nomics, agriculture, college, general, and commercial - iorm the background for a Well balanced tour year course. The students on the college course need science, especialiy chemistry, to prepare for high- er education. The general course gives a student a solid foundation for life after he leaves school The commercial students learn the intri- cacies of work in offices and other businesses. I8 The students on the industrial arts course learn to work with blueprints, printing ma chin e S, plastics, wood, and metal mater- ials. The home economics qirls gain skill in home management, cook- ing, sewing, home nursing, inter- ior decorating, dietetics, and oth- cr home crafts. The agricultural students learn the best method of soil conserva- tion, crop raising, soil and pro- duce testing and judging, animal husbandry, and many other phases of SUCC9SSflll farm management. INSIDE P. H. S EVERY SIXTY MINUTES . The six maior courses of study are themselves divided into thirteen typical classes. It was to these classes that the students inside P.H.S. went for sixty minutes each day. The students who planned to enter college attended the senior English class where they reviewed the various qrammar forms and studied the different types of English litera- i.UY9. 20 The Students in plane geometry were taught the axioms, and pos- Lulatcs concerning circles, tri- angles, and other geometric fig- ures. The iniiysics class learned about motion, sound, and electricity. Do, ro, mi .... - a fine Lioyb chorus was dev:Ioped this year. INSIDE P. H. S mv i w,.,,.

The underclassmen eagerly watched all of our movements. As a result, we were very careful in setting good examples for them to follow. During our freshman year we attended guidance classes under the direction of Mr. Phillips. We became acquainted with each other more thoroughly at the freshmen and sophomore parties held at the beginning of our freshman and sophomore years. The class officers during our junior year were. President, Roger Silvernailp Vice- president, Beverly Roush, Secretary, Betty Klinglerg Treasurer, Harold Anderson. We sold concessions at the basketball games during our junior year to furnish money to meet the expenses for the junior-senior prom. Whata Life , the story of Henry Aldrich, was presented during our senior year to raise funds for our Mayflower. The play was given three nights instead of two, which had never been done in years past, nevertheless, it was a sell-out all three nights. Our most important senior week began on Thursday, the nineteenth of May, with senior exams. The following day we attended the banquet and prom that was presented for us by the juniors. Sunday evening Baccalaureate services were held at the Centennial Auditorium. The climax of our high school careers came on the evening of May twenty- fourth when ninety of us students walked to the platform and received our diplomas. Y ,.. . L4..4g.. ., LL . .l SENIORS 32 - .

From the guidance course that they took in their fresh- man year to the completion and execution of the plans for the junior-senior prom, they have been happily engaged in all the activities offered them. During the time that they have been with us, the wide-eyed freshmen of three years ago have developed physical, mentally, and spiritually. They have achieved these de- velopments by the various activities in which they have participated. Some of these have included: the freshmen-sophomore party, the election of the junior class officers, the earning of money to finance the senior banquet and prom by selling concessions at the basketball games, and finally, the presentation of the 1949 junior-senior prom. But this is all ancient history to them. As typical students of P.H.S. they are looking forward to the fulfillment of their hopes and plans during the year ot '49 and '5ll. Their senior year will tell whether developments of the past three years have proved fruitful - if their ninety-two footsteps, echoing in the corridors, have led to success during their sojourn inside P.H.S.
