Only one more year! Junior Class Here is the school's most intelligent, sophisticated, 'and enthusiastic group. The Juniors have more students on the honor roll than any other class. Of course, they have other interests than education. They like to have fun, too. From what we hear they had a swell time at their picnic, October 15. They- also cel- ebrated March 16, when they had a skating party in Dixon. The Seniors of '46 have no doubt that the Juniors will make fine Seniors. Good luck, Juniors! The future of P. C. H. S. is in your hands! Top Picture Row 3 Charles McPherson, Arnold Scholl, Edmund Raley, Donald Volz, Edward Raley, George Miller, Fred Beecher, Norman Messer.

Dances, Picnics, Parties- Holiday Dance On December 27, our Christmas vacation was livened up by a semi-formal dance spon- sored by the Polo Rotary Club and the Junior Class. Jack Sweeney and his orchestra furnished the music for this gala affair. Special guests for the evening were young people of college age who seemed to enjoy dancing as much as did the members of P. C. H. S. Something new in decorations was a sleigh, complete with harness for the horse and blan- kets to keep warm. This was placed in a setting of snow and pine branches at the north end of the gym, and seemed to add just the right touch of winter spirit. During the intermission a boys' quartet and Audrey Binkley sang several numbers while the orchestra prepared for another hour and a half of dancing. The strains of Good Night, Sweetheart, brought a much too hurried ending to a lovely evening. JR. SR. BANQUET Friday, May 10, was the night of the rollicking Junior-Senior banquet. It was just a circus! Really it was-the theme I mean! So we went back.to our childhood days of the ferris wheel, merry-go-round and roly-poly clowns. All had a mighty Hne time enjoying a second childhood. Junior Play Clean Sweep by Dana Thomas was presented by the Junior Class in April. It was a homey play, fast-moving and hilariously funny. The dialogue was smart and the situations novel.
