6 PART IN G DOUGLASS ARMSTRONG We- seldom see him talking: He seems to us most shy, But faster beat some girlish hearts Whene'er he passes by. EVELYN ARRUDA Neat as wax, Our grandmas opined: It must have been Eve-lyn They had in mind. VINCENT BAIETTI Vinnie-'st' in his counting house, Counting all our dimes: Cheerful and eiTicient In good or parlous times. GERALDINE BALBONI A ready smile and sparkling eyes For all who ever greet herg No person sane, we still main- tain, Discards the chance to meet her. ALICE BANZI She's one of the first in this year book And iirst in Friendships Book, too, She's never too tired or busy To stop and chat with you. ALEXANDER BARBIERI Ask him to help you, He'l1 gladly say, Ye-s g His talents are numerous We mayiwell-confess. g Y -I A ' SHOTS CHARLES BARENGO That's not a twinkle in his eye, It's just a look of doubt: As if you didnit watch your step, He'd surely find you out. MARION BEAURE GARD In our class of '36, We feel that we've- been lucky To have a girl so full of fun As this one we call Ducky. WILLIAM BA GNELL Bill may seem a quiet lad, He isn't one at all: He nearly wakes the dead each time He stamps into study hall. ELIZABETH BELCHER Here is a girl Who is always busy: But does she get cross When we call her Lizzie!! DEANE BEYTES Our Deanels not 'iDizzy - far from it, He is a man of affairs - He's ready and eager Though payment be meagre, To solve our class problems And shoulder our cares. BETTY BOUDROT In fair or stormy weather, It matters not a bit, Betty's hair is curly- How -we envy it!

THE PILGRIM 5 Lady Luck smiled on the celebrants and made the game a sixteen-inning one. If you wish to be deluged with superlatives, ask anyone who went to the game whether or not he enjoyed it! In this momentous year the S. A. S. began to function actively. JUNIOR YEAR Tra la la la! for we are juniors!- so rang our joyous song as we ap- proached a step closer to that lofty pin- nacle, the senior year. Pinafore, an operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan, was produced with many juniors in the cast. No doubt our teachers recall the event-we troubled them, we fear, by humming and whist- ling the tunes from the operetta for weeks and weeks. When hard work becomes pleasure, that's news-at any rate it did to our committee preparing for the Junior Prom! Paeans of praise could be lav- ished on the affair, but let it suffice to say in good old American slang: It was swell! SENIOR YEAR The patient were rewarded. We meant to make our Senior year the best of all, and we like to think we have succeeded. Our Senior Dance, held on December 13, was well attended, and our senior get-togethers in preparation for the dance were lots of fun. The S. A. S. held the first School Circus, and the results were so gratify- ing that we feel distinct pleasure when we say that many seniors helped to make it such a success that it will in all probability become an annual school event. Now, having passed through the calamity of being a freshmen, the vis- sisitudes of a sophomore, having sur- vived the joys of a junior and striven to attain dignity as at senior, we, the class of 1936, thoughtfully and a little sadly write The End to our high school days at P. H. S. Vale! ALBA MARTINELLI '36 Last Will and Testament WE, the class of 1936, having by vari- ous means. and methods successfully passed four years' trial in the court of P. H. S. do, in all fairness to the facul- ty and underclassmen, bequeath the following: To Mr. Shipman: Our admiration for his equanimity in dealing with us and our major and minor difficulties. To Mrs. Raymond: A tall silk hat from which to pull more surprises for the classes to come. fOf course, these will be unpredictable, but they will be of the same general nature as her famous psychological tests, memory tests, and home lessonsj To Mr. Smiley: To aid in his vag- aries, field glasses for looking off into space. fWe regret that they are not so powerful as the new 200-inch tele- scope at the Wilson observatory, but we hope that they will serve their purpose.J To Miss McN-erny: Our sincere hope that the spacious cuisine in the new High School will not be in such a posi- tion as to catch all fragrant odors from the chemistry laboratory. CBiscuits saturated with HZS are most unpalata- ble.J To Mr. Ingraham: A little bottle of glue with which to stick down the little plume of hair on the back of his head. Of course, a pair of scissors would be as appropriate, but would not carry the sentiment. To Mr. Mongan: Aware of his habit of tossing chalk at unsuspecting pupils in his math classes, we present a box of rubber crayons. fWe'll accept thanks at any time, Freshmenq To Miss Brown: A cushion-top desk to be used solely as a chair. We could throw in a footstool but it might hit someone en route. To Miss Locklin: A grandpa grand piano in the new school so that the remarkable quality of her playing will be the more appreciated. To Mr. Bagnall: A luxurious ori- ental rug in his new home room to si- lence those who persist in wearing leather heels. However, in case that does not serve its purpose, we add a box of powdered wax to make slippery the floor. Then he may chuckle gleefully at a pupil's humiliation. To Miss Judd: Sole charge over the new candy counter, if any, to be in- stalled in the new P. H. S. We under- stand that she has a very sweet tooth. To Miss Kelly: Diamond-topped desks in her new home room to resist the ef- forts of any and all initial carvers. To Miss Humphrey: An English class containing no one who considers himself an outstanding comedian. Continued on Page 24
