:3 Elm unsurpassed by any frolic 0f the season. Music was furnished by Mrs. Mook's orchestra of Beaumont This Junior class was noted for its parties, hayrides 11nd pimlics and also the way we fought the Seniors. The Juaior-Seuior football game was a tie so the Seniors didn't have a chance to show their spue1'io1'ity tas they called itl. At the and at this year We left With great anticipations, for the next year we, would enter Seniorhood. This would be the last milestone of the many milestones leading to grad- uation. We would he Seniors and would be able to boss the lower classmen tincllld- ing the Juniorsl and would set before them an example which they would profit by. But 0111' greatest ambition was to have a real honest to gomlnessli Seagull! ?.El Va Seniors!!! The class of 122 has certainly lived up to this name for we are superior in everything that We do. Our greatest ambition is being realized, for we are going to have. a real Seagull! A Seagull that the Port Arthur High School will he p1'outl to claim in the years to come; 1111 annual that will surpass all the annuals that have been published by the Senior classes of the Port Arthur High School in the years past We are tluc defenders of the Maroon and Gold as Well as 0111' own class colors- Gold and White The Senior class of sthe organizer of the Students' Council and the Police Department Which has gamedSI much plaise flom both the students and the faculty. The class of '22 has always been 1'ep1esent1'd in all the department 5 of school life. The majmity of the football team this yea1'we1'e membe1s of the Senior class. Out of the fifteen men that received tP A's. for football, nine were Senmrs. There are many Seniors 011 both the basketball and baseball teams. 0111' individual class room records suffice to show our studiousness Upon 0111' entrance into Seniorhood we 0101- ted 011s Jeminez president.

Think of the dramatic. talent, the musical ability, the orators, tht- debatm's, the poets and gift-o'- gah that we possess. We are not only noted for these talents, hut for the number in 0111' class. We are the largest class that 1121s ever graduated from the Port Arthur High School. At the beginning of 0111' Senior year we were almost five score strong but at mid-year commencement we lost nineteen of our members who had traveled the road of many milestones loading to graduation. One of the best parts of our Senior life is when at the end of each week we get together and have a merrymaking. The dam of 122 has always been noted for these frolit's. 1111111111 E E V 7 7; E m a a 7 41 IE 7: i. GE 7 L Commencement! Interesting as it may sound. there are tender memories awakened by the thought of leaving 0111' dear Alma Mater. the Port Arthur High School. As we look hack and see. the long line of i'PFQDS , Freshman, Sophomores, antl Juniors. it seems that only yesterday we, too, were standing there gazing with longing eyes towards the' supreme heights of Soniorlmod. But, after all. we have found that it is not so much thtl reaching 0f the goal that counts as it is how we have 1'1111 the meet E' 5?; rm nA1111 when one Great Scorer comes To write against your name: He writes not that you won 01' lost.

During these years we have been traveling the road of Life and Learning together. but now we must journey apart. 0111' paths will lead us to distant parts of the earth: some may climb to the starry heights of fame: eaeh one will serve humanity in some plaoe as hest he can. A vs L, I11 leaving our dear High School 0111' lieal'tstl'ings are sounding notes? of sadness mingled with notes of gladnoss for the dear friends we leave behind us 111111 for the days that have gone and for the days that are to he. Alfred the Gran once said that Every craft. and every power soon grows 0111 111111 is passed over and forgotten. it' it be without wisdom. So hereis hoping that the immortal class of '22 shall stand as a tribute to the Port Arthur High School in the years to come.
