(£ to LJK ax (z± 3 ' ijt istfi fnni j£Z±azij Over the past fifty years the Oriole has grown from a paperback memory book of one hundred pages to a larger, more inclusive annual of two hundred forty pages. The Oriole of 1921, following the trend of the time, was a book for Seniors published by Seniors. It contained few pictures and much copy of interest to the Seniors. At that time the yearbook included creative writing, such as poetry and essays, and very little about the faculty. By the fifties the cover had undergone gradual changes from paperback, to padded covers, to brightly colored silk screens. The layout of the book had changed also, until today it includes subject matter of a much wider spectrum. The modern yearbook encompasses student life, activities, faculty and competi- tion. An example of the changes over the years is seen in respect to a single portion of the book, the Senior Class section. At one time the Senior Class depended upon flowery poetry and superfluous descriptions to depict their accomplish- ments. Today’s copy is written factually, allowing the achievements to speak for themselves without the use of trite expressions. Items of local and national interest, such as the controversial eighteen-year-old right to vote are included in the yearbook. None of the yearbooks would be successful without the support of mer- chants within the community. Through their financial support, the yearbook is kept at a price that every student can afford. The staff of the first Oriole realized that times and trends would change when they wrote the following: “On a quiet spring morning the faint chirp of The Oriole was heard through the halls of P.H.S. It had come to build its nest for the first time among us and we received it with open arms. “It is yet young and its wings are being tried for the first time, but we feel sure that, under the loving care of those who follow us, our Oriole will become stronger, and that each year so mething may be added to it to better qualify it to be called a product of Pulaski High School.” 2
