Pcns ..... ,...... T he C de .... ...... 1 944 Junior Class Those little green freshmen who entered P. C. H. S. when we were already full- tledged sophomores now represent the Junior Class. They are an up-and-coming groupg . but, of course, they cou1dn't surpass the Junior Class of last year. They are all excited about their new class rings which will probably be coming any day now. Mighty pretty rings, too. They haven't had much of a chance to show us what they can do about a play, but just the same we will be looking forward to a nice banquet. Lots of luck to you, Juniors! We hope you will take over where we leave off in P. C. H. S.
