G irls' Glee Club THE SENIOR PROM The second annual Senior Prom was brought to a pleasant close on the evening of April the 27th. The president and his committees had been busy for several months preparing this and bringing their school-days to a Fine climax with the best party of the season. As one entered the doorway of the auditorium which was fluttering with strips of nile green paper, a small room furnished with a davenport and some comfy chairs first met his eager eyes. Then on really reaching the auditorium one suddenly imagined himself under the sea in the beautifully decorated room. For the false ceiling, slightly lowered, was hung with light green paper. In the center of it was a large pool of lily pads with green sea mud dripping from them. A faint glow of rosy light came from the northern end of the room where the orchestra sat in a pretty, pinlc shell. At one side of the dance floor was the refreshment table made to represent an under sea roclc ledge. In the middle of the stand stood a large bowl filled with green punch that looked like the very sea itself. At each side of the bowl were plates of wafers reposing on beds of small pebbles. The musicians, Jean Goldlcettes Ramblers, the decorations, the diligence of the class, and the helpful suggestions of the sponsors are all ro be complimented. 21

Eighty of us entered as Freshmen. All of us were excited and a big hubbub took place before we became settled. During the first few days it was rather hard to keep quiet, to keep in our own domain and to dodge the sophs,' but we managed. And now when we review the four years that we have spent in P. H. S., we are impressed with their rapid flight. Ir seems as though it were only yesterday that the sophs began ordering us about, and we began to wonder what was coming next. Our Freshman class officers were elected after the first month: President, Archie Crumm, Vice-President, Harold Norris, Secretary, Harold Hubert, Treasurer, Lawrence Rattenbury. Our first social activity was the Freshman reception given to us by the class of '25 who en- tertained us royally. At the close of the Freshman year all of us were completely adjusted and immune to the jibes of the Sophs', although we were just waiting for our chance at the Freshmen the next year. Our Sophomore year began with the election of the following officers: President, Frazer Carmichael, Vice-President, Franklin Atkinson, Secretary, Dorothy Hillman, Treasurer, Corinne Howell. We did have our fun with the Freshies too. And then finally the exams, and the end of the year. Next in line came the year when usually everyone begins to feel a degree of importance and absolute necessity-the Junior year. Our officers were: President, Lawrence Rattenbury, Vice-President, Joy McNabb, Secretary, Leona Beyer, Treasurer, Helen Carruthers. A great feature in our lives was that we were to give a J-Hop. This was a huge success, and the decorations were acclaimed as the most beautiful ever seen in P. H. S. And then on May 20th we gave our Junior-Senior Banquet and not long afterwards we were the Seniors to be. And now twelve years are gone. Our Senior year was most successful. At the first meeting we elected the following officers: President, Lawrence Rattenbury, Vice-President, Mac Donnelly, Secretary, Margaret Schaufele, Treasurer, Joy McNabb. To compensate for our reception by the class of '25 we gave the Freshman reception which was well attended. The Senior Play was presented on March 22-23, and was said to be the most successful play ever produced in P. H. S. The title was You and If' by Phillip Barry. Then came the Senior Prom, which was a beautiful affair and a money making proposi- tion. And now we come to an end with the juniors bidding us goodbye with a Junior-Senior Banquet. We wish to thank our patrons and patronesses, Mr. Holcomb, Mr. and Mrs. Dykehouse and Miss Asman, for the help they have given us in the past years. -F. Atkinson ?0
