I3A This is our class; we ' re 13A As a rule we ' re very gay Though homework sometimes gets us down Through our spares we often clown. Sue is our only mathematician She dreams of being a great technician, But her n parley-vous is quite good, too, And the class would be dead without our Sue. Jane Bird is good at languages On Bronte and Horace ' she writes pages. In Zoo she disects things apart While ducking John ' s cupid dart. Lynne Kerr asserts her most imperatives And we know she writes some narratives. Of the Dramatic Society she is President And in 13A she ' s a welcome resident. Next there is Paul, a Knight by name We often see him round with Jane. He ' s busy at maths and sciences too, And always up to something new. Merry Mary, must not tarry, How does your Chemistry go; With golden pin of Blue ' n White, And French Club students in a row. Ken Menzies was the King of Hearts, He rules the Boy ' s A. A. In every class he takes his part, But hopes to leave some day. Marylyn Mitchell is a wonderful girl, A lot of lads would give her a whirl. In English no one need her quell, All of the class do now wish her well. Dorothy relaxes with her violin, And many square dances she takes in. In class you could not tell she ' s there But in her homework she takes every care. Janie Brickman, who sure can sing, Goes about on a merry fling Of Chemistry, Botany, Trig and such, And all kinds of fun she likes very much. Linda came back with lots of pep And soon became our A. A. rep. Not by her own will, you see, But ' cause of her personality! John Crow hurst is an able lad, He ' s thinking all the while, But more than that we admire him for His gorgeous Colgate smile! Vern Huffman is of noble wit, But strives in English class to sit Aloof from all his merry mates To dream about his coming dates. Paul McCreery, our faithful Q.M. Fits army cadets in S. L. or M. A rifle team member, (he ' s quite a good shot) In all of his classes, he ' s right there with his books open. We have a Pemberton, her name is Jean, Working in the library she ' s always seen. She ' s very good in Spanish and Zoo, And takes time out for dancing, too. Mary Lou ' s a dear But we don ' t often have her here. In Botany she knows her flowers And at her homework she works for hours. Mary Rose, a McMaster fan, Has as her goal, this one plan To persuade the rest of 1 3A To join her as she makes her way. John Stassen, our historian Is certainly no Kennedy fan. He likes fresh air to help him think But in Chemistry he helps make a s tink. 98

I2C Mr. Crandall is the teacher of our home room. He came from the town of a mining boom We know he ' d rather return where he came For there he has a well known fame. We know we get on his nerves all day, Especially Susy and Marlene, How often we listened and heard Betty say, Oh Sir, I ' m just on lesson nineteen. Tena, a silly, in bookkeeping that is, Wishes she could be like Dorothy the whiz. While in Mr. McLean ' s penmanship class, Bonnie i§ the fair little lass. Now, on to Shorthand, the class we hate, And no one knows why we are always late. Mary ' s the brain, and none of us know why Because it ' s lucky if we even get by. Laraine loves English, and sometimes wishes, That she ' d be that good in Office Practice, Jack, the only male member of our class Hopes to get by with more than a pass. Barb, had never taken typing before, But on she goes to try some more. There goes Johanna, a tall young girl, And beside her is our pretty young Pearl. Now, on to Math which Joan D. enjoys, And Mr. Trevor yells, Girls stop that noise. Next is Law, and Joan M. ' s crack Sir, when will we get the test papers back? Dianna says she knows all her words, But she sometimes gets mixed in those nouns and verbs. While down at the back Marie is making Wishes and plans for doing some baking. Judy is quiet but is always thinking What can I do to catch up in my typing. Now on to P.T. and here ' s Heather, no other, And Mrs. Fitzgibbon, with a sigh says, Oh brother. That ' s all we can say for 12C right now But in June we all hope to be taking our bow And have jobs in offices, schools or in banks With this we will close, and to P.H.H.S. we all say thanks.

Jane Wilson, a little brown-eyed lass, One of the prettiest in our class Wants us to think she cannot spell But the statistics show, she does very well. Much like The Texan , a rifle shot bold That s our Leigh, so we’ve been told. Shoulders that rifle, cocks that gun, Then you should see all the other guys run Don Workman, ve know, is quite fond of Horace, And no class with Don ever will bore us. Spares in Spanish he always enjoys But Miss Foy says he makes too much noise. 13A s a form that s lots of fun And besides we get things done. We enjoy Thirteen - we really love it But in June we hope to leave it. Mary Rose I3B The Blue ' n White now presents This is Your Life . As we walk down the corridors of P.H.H.S. we see many notorious classes; but tonight this is your life 13B! And now here is a voice from your lively life - Anything for a laugh. Yes, of course, it ! s one of your red-heads and the vice-president of the students council Bill Skitch. Who can this be yelling Tiger-Hurray - obviously it s the girl s basketball team, Marie, Barb, Jackie (who is also the president of the G.A.A. and member of the Senior Girls Basketball Team), Elaine, Roberta and Joan (red shorts and all). And now here is a voice I m sure you ll never forget It only takes me ten or fifteen minutes, Sir. Who else but Noel. Following Noel are Jack and Jim still debating who is B.A.A. representative. And with them is your favourite home room teacher and proud new father repeat¬ ing his profound statement that Catherine is a girl and Heathcliff a boy. Here comes Bonnie, your Drama Society representative and Sally, your se¬ cond red-head and ex-leader of the cheerleaders. Sally is telling Bonnie that she will soon be finished reading Wuthering Heights . This is a great surprise. Here are Keith Longyear and John Record, your honorary members (they just couldn t bear to be parted from good old grade twelve any longer). They are being escorted in by Bill White, Gordon, and Paul Sneyd. And there bringing up the rear is John Crawford with an admit slip in his hand. Well, 13B, will you ever forget the year you spent with these people — the form party with 13A where Jack and one of the kidnappers played with the ouija board, the amusing fellow outside the English class, and the scented concoctions in the Chemistry Lab. Yes 13B ; they were all part of your life. Joan May 99
