'LA crown of yellow wavy hair, And eyes of tender blue, Yet the darkest shadows chase away, RUTH FRY Ruth is as full of mischief as the sky is full of stars. She is a brilliant student, a gifted musician, and an accomplished flirt lreferences furnishedl- 'Like Minorvrfs is her wisdom, Like Apollois is her smile, Yet she is in the Bible, When Marie smiles up at you." 11s a maiden without guilef, GRAY BROWNE There is much discussion as to whether Cray is bashful, or just modest, but whichever he is, he is a fine Business Manager. He contradicts the theory that hopposites attract," for his taste in girls semms to he blonde ones Qbrunettes, please weepl. HHe was blue-eyed, he was bonnyg He was buoyant, he was sunnyf, EDGAR GOODNIGHT g'Goody" keeps himself busy trying to get out of handing in themes or managing for an excuse from detention. He did not run for class beauty, but if he had, we would have given it to him, for he can have anything he wants from the Senior Class. JOE HAZEL MCBRIDE Take a goodsmixing howl into which put two cups of common sense, one cup of fun, and four eggs of imagination, sift in and mix well three cups of freckles. Flavor all this with a teaspoonful of ser- iousness, and behold! you have Joe Hazel. l l THELMA MILBURN Thelma is a girl whom we may charac- terize as an all-around good sport, with lots of masculine hearts to her credit. With this title, it is needless to say she has lots of friends and good times. BENNIE MILBURN Bennie may be small, but someone told us that she is a dandy boss. We wonder whether her ability at drawing will be turned into designing, or drawing checks on Fred. Bennie is a good sport, a won- derful dancer, and a beautiful girl. Here's to her success. EUGENE COOK Eugene is our mighty Sergeant-at-Arms whose august and severe Visage causes all Seniors to utoe the mark." "Our dear little Senior, Eugene Cookg At the girls he is seldom seen to look, But once from behind his book I'm told a glance at L1 girl he took." LUZELLE MITCHELL Though her stay with us has been brief, Luzelle has won many many friends. We girls can't blame the boys, for she is a beautiful and winsome girl. We do not pity 6'Turkey" for being so faithful, for we, too, are worshippers at her shrine. FRED HOSKINS Fred is a side show when you get him started. He may be foolish at times, but some one fwe ainit a-saying whoi said that his heart was on the right side. Fred intends to be a coach just like Mr. Shot- well. Watch him practice or. the Gram- mar School boys. J. W. MAGGART 4'Wop" is the famous football center whom the girls have vainly tried to charm, but he casts impartial smiles upon all of them. One might think him fickle, but on account of his splendid work as Sec- retary of athletics, we can hardly think him so frivolous. FRANKLIN HAYNES Franklin is a combination of friendli- ness and mischief. He is a comedy in spite of himself. 'alllozv liereis to old Franklin Haynes, our class president, With his bright red sweater and devilish gring The rnost sturlious person that God ever SCrlt To hinder his fellow men ' GERTIE BLAIR Attention, here comes our ray of sun- shine! Gertie and her curls now appear! Oh, how the girls all envy her. When she is a person's friend, you may know that she is a true friend. Ask her what letter in the alphabet she likes best and she will invariably answer, HE." SU SIE MOORE She'd make a lovely old maid fthe mod- ern type with a business air and a dignie fied bearingl- It will be a misfit if she is not a Miss always. Maybe she'll be an Mold maid," Maybe she'll notg But whatever sheill be, I'm sure, 'Twill be the "top of the pot." -24- FRANCIS DAVIS Francis leaves the negro preacher in the shade when she is called on to save the Sc-3nior's reputation. When Miss Clack says, l'Francis, have you studied your Eng- lish lesson?,' she replies with her favorite expression, "I can not tell a lie." "An honest two! rnarfs the noblest work of God." ROSAMOND WHITE "A girl whose eyes are always laughing, A girl whose tresses always curlf, To look at Rosamond's sweet girlish face and ever laughing eyes, one would never guess how accurate her brain is or how she shines out in all her classes. ELIZABETH HANNA Sometimes there is just a flash of some- thing so quaint about Elizabeth that we know she would make just as good a vamp as she is a student-if she only dared. QA little learning is a dangerous thing," So Elizabeth "drinks fleepv at her "Pier- D. W. WRISTEN Dear worthy brother-that's his real name. He sits back in that complacent manner and smiles upon the frivolities of the world. Some one has called him the ideal boy-judge for yourself. ian spring." OSWALD BABB 4'0zzie" writes funny little verses about Ford cars and fair maidens. His latest attempt in literature is the solution of the immigration problem, and his wise schemes are characteristic of a second Herod. His avocation is dancing. SALLIE MARSHALL GARRISON 'isallie Marshall has left, why we know not, But sheis greatly missed by the Senior lot. Wherever she may happen to hurry or dally, We hope no one will forget and call her just-Sallie. ALENE BREWER Alene is not boisterous, yet she is not NOVA BROWN "Modest and shy as a nun is shefl With Sl1Y3.Sh9 is fmt dl5!USlinglY EHSUEJYYQM Yet those soft brown eyes and gentle ways she is anything but hateful. Qhe can Win the heart of any man "Quiet, untusuming, and sweet A pleasant girl for one to meet, Whose nature is very cheerful and sunny, She finds life amusing, if not quite funnyf, ROSS DAWKINS Ross spent the first three years of high school in the wayside inn of Baird. Al- though he is one of the youngest members of the class fdon't accuse him of being fourteenl, his brilliant mind can always solve the hardest problems the facultv can devise. ' MORGAN MARTIN Morgan has two qualities that insure his success in whatever he undertakes- ability to persevere and capacity for hard work. He studies much, behaves well in Study Hall, but gets in detention once in a while just to show that he is made of mortal clay like the rest of us. EDITH FARR Edith is of such a modest nature that she is known to few of the Seniors. That she is loved and admired by these few, however, speaks well for her. lf she does not teach, she will 'alive in a house beside the road and be the friend of manf, MEDIA HARRIS Media has not been here long, but has practised the old proverb of "making hay while the sun shiuesf' and she is now reap- ing a harvest of good grades and good friends as a result. Her sunny disposi- tion has won the hearts of both teachers and classmates. EVA MAE READER Eva Mae Will creditably fill the role of model wife in somebodyis model home by applying the principles she has learned in Domestic Science. She has won a place in the heart of everyone who has the good fortune to know her. ALPIN DODSON Some boys go through life without an ambition, but not so with Alpin. He makes HA" grades in High School and besides has plenty of time for fun both in school and out. I forgot to tell you that he doesn't aspire t intends to be a some day. HOUSTON SELF Houston came from the far south and found Abilene, interesting and attractive- He has not told us what profession he should like to follow. Here's luck to him. o be a poet, but He will show you ROBBIE KELLY Robbie is a student to be depended on at all times for everything. She is stud- ious and faithful in her work. That she is not all seriousness, however, certain young men of Hamby can testify. DOROTHY WRIGHT Dorothy is very apt in making her grades reach the A mark and letting peo- ple know that i'Gray" is her favorite color. She finishes Expression this year as well as High Schoolg therefore we predict hers to he a brilliant future. LUCILE WINSHIP "The role of Goddess of Liberty befitted her wcllf' Though a goddess, Lucile has won the friendship of more of us mortals than she can count- We think her far more beauti- ful than the famous Venus, more clever than the ensnaring Juno. The Romans WAUNITA ROBINSON might envy us our goddess, but we wouldn't give her up for gold. LAWRENCE WRIGHT Lawrence is a typical son of the Gold- en West. The themes born in his bril- liant mind have made for him many good grades in English. He is a good athlete and his style of oratory makes him a de- light to the Public Speaking class. PRENTISS MAYFIELD We are all proud to have '4lVIonsieur" Mayfield as a member of our class. His favorite word is "By George." I guess it helps him to get good grades on his re- port card. Prentiss will probably develop into an explorer: he has such a tendency to look into everything. Waunita has made many friends by her happy smile. She is very fond of read- ing poetry and washing dishes. We do not know whether she will teach English or work in a chop suey joint. MSkinnie" is gifted with wonderful power to inter- pret music. FLOYD MACKEY Floyd, our famous cartoonist, decided he could spend his time to more advant- age somewhere elseg so he "up and left us." STEWART NOLAND g'Pek" is as silent as the Egyptian Sphynx. lt has been rumored that he has the big head, but those who know him know that this is not true. He believes in deeds and not in words as shown by his record in athletics. "True worth is in being, not seeming? MARGARET WATTS We would give '4Tootsie,' another name. lt would begin with "P-" Why? Be- cause she was manager of the '6Army,' in the fall and manager of the MNationals,, in the spring. Popularity is thc word. JOHNNIE OSBORNE Johnnie is a born mathematician and leaves us all in the shade when she begins on her "angle O equals 2 rt. angles." She leaves behind the memory of a good friend as well as a good student. CECIL BOLES MTenflat" came from Gordon to Abilene to finish his high school life. He is a splendid athlete, as his nick-name implies. He is ambitious to care for some of the nationis forest reserves. There will be no need for worry about the preservation of our forests when Cecil is on the job. MAE HOLT Mae has a tongue with a kick as strong as home brew and a mind of an extremely original turn. With her brown eyes she could draw 4'iron tears down Pluto's cheek," if she dared to, but Mae does not delight in "sobstuff." She has brains and a wealth of wit, She is bright and clever but not eoneeited BEATRICE DODSON Beatrice is the envy of us all. She makes grades that would make Socrates sit up and take notice. She is a born musician, playing anything from Chop- stioksi' to "Sonata in Cf, She has a beautiful voice that will probably charm large audiences some day. ri bit? CLAUDE GENTRY One of the squarest boys in High School -liked and admired by the boys, loved and adored by the girls. Of this splendid football, basketball, baseball star, let us say: "Darin is husky, good-natured, a crack ath- lete, He wears Hspeelrsi' on his nose, and num- ber 10,5 on his feet. HELEN STRIBLINC When strangers see Helen, they im- mediately ask, 'SHOW in the world does she fix her Helen, and as she does Helen's Helerfs hair that way?" That's just she does everything up just her hair-in tiptop fashion. meek, Helerfs sweet, modest and discreet." CLYDE PRATT The "clever blufferf' although a new fellow among us, has made a name for himself in athletics as well as in English. The service that he has rendered A. H. S. on the field will never he forgotten. LOLABEL MOORE To know Lolabel is to discover that she has a heart of gold-a heart which, alas, is all tied up in certain Simmons Fresh- men. Lolabel has dimples that Juno might envy. She is really talented, and we hope that when she becomes famous she will not forget poor us. THELMA MCPHERSON Thelma may seem quiet, but to those that know her well she is full of mischief and fun. Simmons held more attractions for her than High School, it seems, for she dared even to leave Lolabel for college life. WILL RINEY Will has sung in the Sans Souci, has played football, basketball, baseball, has kept the children for his mother, has served in the '4pen,', and has even had a date. We think that he is to hold two positions in life: General Manager in the Riney Construction Company and Assist- ant Manager of the Riney Family. HASSIE WHITLEY She walks about as if sheis on tip toes, She never speaks until sheis sure she knows. Her gentle voice is like the summer breeze, Her dark brown eyes find it easy to please. Hassie has the distinction of going through High School without getting a demerit. -31 .IEP COLLINS Jep came to us from Louisiana. He shows this by 'hswampingw it over his classmates. Jep has not only shown his ability as a debater, yell leader, proficient public speaker, and ladies' man, but he also promises to develop into a renowned physician and pill specialist. BEATRICE SCOTT Cute little bobbed-headed 4'Bee." She has the reputation of being the fastest girl in A -H. S.-at chewing gum. Beat- rice is not sure about her future yet!-she can't decided whether to be chief cook and bottle washer for some unworthy man or to be milliner at Canyon. ELGIE ROBBINS The bane of Elgieis existence is Span- ish. lf it were not for that, she would be perfectly happy. She has made an enviable recordAno demerits for three years. "A maiden, fair without pretensef' JOEL HOLMES ,loel is one of those quiet fellows who never talks much unless he has something really worth saying fwe know that some- one is hoping he will find a proposal worth whilel. In a few years hence we expect to find, in the Art Gallery of Fam- ous Men, the likeness of one, Joel Holmes. BYRON WILSON Byron has unsuccessfully objected to every law that has been proposed by the Students' Association, but he is always successful selling tickets for the games. Nobody is more loyal to the colors than he. We look for Byron to become a suc- cessful politician because he is so gifted in the art of disputation- LOIS PHELPS Lois looks so becoming in a Dodge road- sttr surrounded by a group of High School Mkidsf, She might do for an ad- vertisement as to the merits of the Dodge Brothers' motor car. Willowy, slender, Lois is thatg Envied by many a girl who Ls fat. RALPH ANTILLEY Ralph is one member of our dignified Senior class who was never seen in the a'Evil Doer's Councilv- or detention. He is almost as grsiat a l'math" shark as Mr. Peek. His deep mind has helped him to secure credits in many very diHicult Sen- ior subjects. THEO AXE ' 'lGive 'em the axe, the axe, the axe"- shades of football! that's what we did when we got in a tight. Famous is our Axe for his red hair, his good humor and his splendid athletic record. BERTHA SIDES Oran has truthfully called Bertha a Uspoiled child." She is the cutest and the most lovable one we ever knew- "Bern has a way of trying to act artless, but her intriguing brown eyes always play the mis- chief and show her as she is, a descendant of Eve. , ROSIE BELLE SHONE Rosie Belle, our dandy sport, reminds us of Coach in that she gets boiling hot at the sight of dishonesty and unfairness in athletics. She is true to her name. She Hshonev at Merkelg she "shone" at Clyde, and she 'gshonen like a morning star at the county meet. HELEN E KEAN Helene possesses the finest of all trails fcongeniality. She is cheerful and con- tented, and lends a hand to a needy fellow- student. We might decide that she intends to be a "schoolmarm," as she's taking School Management. You've found a girl, Helene Kean, Like whom there is no other, I ween. HELEN HAMILTON Helen is full of "pep,', yet she takes life seriously and will probably be a mis- She had Y sionary to some heathen land. rather talk than do anything else, unless it is to drive by the fire station or to an- swer "Present" when the roll is called at the latest fire. RUTH HARBER "She is a wirwome wee thing." Ruth wins one by her quiet, modest charm and unassuming ways. If you want any help in any activity, call for Ruth and in her own way she does it, leaving us to wonder how and when she did it. CLARIBEL HULSEY Claribel, another one of our curly-haired members, is a good sport. She is famous for her giggle. Her interests are varied, ranging from writing love letters to em- broidering in chapel. Sometimes she turns her attention to more serious subjects, and, as a side line, does a little cooking. FRED STIRMAN Poor blushing Fred! They say that in Public Speaking his first speech was worth going miles to 'gseef' But Fred can write 'ablood and thunder" stories that would make Two-Gun lke's hair stand on end. He will make a very obedient, hen-peeked husband to the first girl who proposes. BENJY WILTSHIRE A ugay young L0thario"-that's Benjy, our quixotic senior. The girls admire him and bid to wear his Senior ring. l CARL HEROD UA gentleman of the old school and the race is dying uutf, Carl is a good orator in Public Speak- ing and is forever studying Spanish. He is certainly destined to be a great high school principal like our own L. E. D. LESTER HUMPHREY Cone hut not forgotten. He made a record in General Science, and was an ac- tive memher in many detention camps. We hope to see him another day. MILDRED CLARK Whether Mildred has been preparing to teach many or one, we do not know, but we do say shz- will make a success of what- ever she does. "Slick of ll class whose numbers are fezr, llergs is a nature, coristarzgsieafly and lruvfl FLORENCE AUS'l'lN We are sorry that circumstances were such that Florence could not stay with us long enough to get that other half credit. She was a lovely girl, and we have missed her. -35 ISABELLE PEARCE Sometimes she is called Isabelle, some- times 'aPat." She is as artful and beguil- ing as any Parisienne- lf you have the blues, just happen around and she'll cheer you up, "Her ways are dear and winning, Her heart is light and free, SllP7S very good in Classes, As good as she can bef, OUIDA CLEMONS Ouida is a wee little girl with brown curls whom we will remember long after High School days are only memories. She had a smile and good word for everyone and inspired us always to do and be our best. How could we have done without her? .UMT1 STINSON The prophecy said that Jimti would be an old maid, but methinks she is much too fond of thc letters of the alphabet, namely, H and V, to have fate trick us thus. MSo sweet and quaint just like her name, A Hz mistress for somebodyis Shameif' FLORA NICNIECE Flora has a quaint, charming face that is often lighted by a rare smile. Perhaps it is this smile that has won the hearts of certain members of the opposite sex. Flora left us at midterm. How fortunate to get a vacation four months ahead of llIl1C. JOHN RYXN Were not Pope, Hugo, Clay, and Loyd George, little men? Shall not John be great in either the literary or political world despite his diminutive size? When he's very wise and great by and by, It will be proved that he was in Abilene High. ALVIN JILFFERIES Alvin is one of the most admirable boys in High School, Many a girl has been casting longing glances at him, but he seems uninterested. He proved himself a good sport by winking at Bertha the other day. We predict he will rise to dis- tinction as an efficient heart doctor. TIM TURNER Tim, with his pink cheeks and pleasant disposition, has become a fisherman of rcpute in A. H. S. As Tim expresses it, he has set his fish-hook for exemption and expects to catch a pass, provided his weight of six subjects does not prove too great a sinker. CHARLES SHELTON A hoy who didn't win the loving cup, but who carried away with him the love and admiration of all his friends. We admire him for his integrity, his honor, and his genial good humor. If there are any more like l1im at Rule, we hope that they will come here also. BESSIE FREE t'Significance," more commonly known in civilized circles as Bessie, is a dandy. She can eat and talk as much as any girl in the class. Although Miss Davis keeps her rather busy in History, she still finds time to have fun- Picture her five years from now as she sits enthroned as a pri- vate secretary in the Covernofs office. FHILLMA HARRISON Unlike most present-day girls she has neithtr bobbed hair nor 'Ldog earsf, but, like Eve, she needs no "fixins" to aid her beauty. Thelma's voice is the kind that makes announcements concerning Girls' Basket Ball in chapel. Dame Rumor says: 'SA member of the opposite sex, looking for a wife, Thinks Thelma the one to travel with through lifef, FAITH RANEY Faith came from Santa Anna, but left her l1eart's desire behind. The joy of her school days was receiving letters from this 'ldesiref' What would the C. A- Gfs have done without Faith? "Sad faces lengthen the dreary wayg One sunny smile makes many gayf, CARROLL ROGERS Carroll is the efficient president of the school bank. lie also shows ability in de- hating, athletics, and literary work. The admiring glances that the Senior girls cast his way are without effect hevause there is only one girl for him and-alas! she is not even a Freshman. WILSON MITCHELL When our esteemed Carlyle interpreter slipped away from the oily metropolis, Eastland. we wished that he had joined us sooner so that we could have had advant- age of his ability. Wilsons greatest ambi- tion is to he the architect for the fifty- story huilding which Rogers' Wholesale Grocery is to occupy, in 1932. LOTA CLYDE H EAD A quaint, lovely cameo is our Lota Clyde Head. Shu makes A-plus in everything, but still she is unspoiled. She is friendly. modest and dependable-in every way, a girl to he admired. "Her eyes were lenclffr, and big, and hrozrn, flml her jorrlzeznl neier rms r:rz'11se'd urith zz frown." LOIS SHACKELFORD There is something ahout Lois that is refreshing as sunshine after a storm. Lois can do anything from earning tt-n demerits to heing a 100 per cent hahy girl. She is in School Management, but is as yet. unde- cided whether she will teach school at Tye or marry a movie actor. PATTY BASS '3Shv pretvnrls shes timid, She ,1Il'l'fl'IIv.'S she's shy, Yet nziscliicf ulzvays lurks in her eye? Patty ought to run for some secretarial office in the Presidents cabinet. She is fully qualified, having been secretary to almost every organization in the Senior Class. She is a combination of jollity and st riousness. TRUMAN REEVES Truman came here from Ft- Stockton. Although in school he is quiet and stud- ious, he is always ready for fun everywhere- else. His ambition must be to be a trigo- nometry teacher. The girls say he DOES drive a car. Z PETE OLDS The success of this annual is largely due to old Hlfver-Ready's,' efforts. We regret that Pete, who for three years has held the championship for the most kinky-head- ed, has at last been forced to yield his laurels to a Freshman. Pete is hearty and full of fun, But he's a boy who gets things done. WARRAINE HILL Warraine can dance, yes, but when years have passed, and the picture of younger days flash across our minds, we will see her, not as the young lady gliding over the smooth floor of the ball room, but as the 'Speppyv little High School girl whose ability was unexcelled at chasing 'iSkeet- ersw out in Western Texas, and wearing '6Queen of Shebau earrings. There is something about Naomi-per- haps it is her rare smileg perhaps it is her wistful brown eyes-that draws one to her. "Charming and clever, a poetess toog One seems to think that something worthy she'll' do." -39- NAOMI HATTON LULA MAE GRIER She'd have made a good looking boy, and if she weren't a girl, she would have had an illustrous football career- As it is she has to be satisfied with being a fast forward in basketball. ORAN SHACKELFORD soft, laughing brown eyes win Those for Oran the hearts of fellow students and teachers alike. He is an actor indeed. Witness: the way in which he impersonated the silly, frivolous girl in Public Speaking Class. PAT MURPHY Pat is our dwarfed Daniel O'Connell. He may rule in Congress, but we know who is going to rule at home. Pa.t's an Irishman, black-haired and green- eyed, In football he's a wonder, And I arn sure he has no little skill In some other things, by thunder! AUBRA WITT Aubra is a bright and shining light in the old class of ,22. She is one of our members who is intellectual enough to fin- ish in three years. But study is not all that Aubra does, for when there is any fun on foot she comes in for her share. What should we do without her? AUBREY BROOKS We all agree that "Cotchie" is some guy. He is listed in most of the girls' diaries as a brave, romantic knight. We do not believe he will ever get to the South Sea Islands as a missionary but if he does -oh boy, won't he tame those South Sea Island maids! -40- MISS CHRISTOPHER Miss Christopher is the Seniors' guide In everything they do, Her fame is spread both far and wide, And her hairis a reddish hue.

In our second year with superior learning, We scorned the Freshman, their aults discerning. We won second place in the class track meet And the second point winner was our own athlete.

In season ticket selling, the Juniors beat them all Our own representative was allowed to kick the ball.

Merkel ,, 1922 e.- FLASLHEIGHT , .-.-.-.-.-.-. The Abilene High School football squad started practice about September the first- Thirty men reported for practice the number steadily increasing until, about one month later there were sixty men out every day. With the best coach in the state and the best captain in the West it looked like from the start that Abilene would put out a winning team. NAVY 3-ARMY 0 The Army-Navy game is held each year in the school to arouse Hpepf, to raise money, and to show Coach whom he can depend ong this year's game did all of these things. The Navy won the game by the narrow margin of 3 to 0 by a drop kick from the twenty-five yard line, Cap- tain Murphy making the kick. A. H. S. 74-MERKEL 0 The next game was with Merkel on their gridiron. Abilene's team was in best form for early season. Merkel was outclassed in every part of the game, as shown by the fact Coach used all the men that were suited out. The final score was 74 to 0. A. H. S. 70-SWEETWATER 0 The next game was with Sweetwater on our home field. The third quarter was used to give the second team a chance to show what they had been learning under the work of Coach Brooks. The game ended with the -core of 70 to 0. ln spite of the fact that the wind was blowing hard A. H. S. 54.-ROSCOE 7 The following day we played Roscoe. As this is Roscoeis first football team Coach sent in the second team. Roscoe made the first score by a perfectly worked cross-buck but after that we did not let them get within the twenty-yard line. Noland's broken field running was the only feature of the game. The final score was 54 to 7. -75-.. Murphy kicked every goal out of as many tries. 7 5 7 WW' ..-.-.-.........- .

W, ?l-it 'hr 4,- Wood Wray Wood Shone Coach Davis Captain Harrison Day Wray Girlz' Ezwkrthall The Abilene High School Girls' Team finished the season not only winners in the County and District lVleet but also undefeated by any team. Snappy playing and close teamwork were characteristic of all games played. They defeated Hamby and North Park by large scores, and soon after they met Merkel with equal success. The hnal game, with Ovalo, played at the County lVleet, resulted in a score of 23-6. On the whole, the team was the best that has been produced in years and we hope for further victories and further triumphs next year. -89-- Efennia Even though the boys would not vote that the girls have a new tennis court, the girls flocked in large numbers to try out for tennis under Miss Smith lmaybe because it is a game said to make the players lithe and gracefull. Ida Hoghland won girls' singles in both County and District Meet. Cola B. Ramsey and Lucille Hoskins were winners in doubles in the School and County Meet. The boys, being more interested in other sports, did not show much enthusiasm in tennis, nevertheless Gray Browne won at the County Meet in the singles and he and Pete Olds in the doubles. Gray also distinguished himself and won honors for the school by winning in the District Meet. We trust that he will come back from Austin with further lau- rels to his credit. i Our motto for all time is: 1 More and better players as the years go by, And a perfect tennis record for Abilene High. ..90.. 1"T'7' """"' FlASf'IHIFIGHT "' ' ' ' ' TRACK ABILENE So Mues 1922 Hanna Guitar Bryan Acton Axe Mayfield Coach Brooks Shackelford Duke Elrark The track team this year of the Abilene High is the best that the school has ever put out. Since Mr. Brooks has been able to devote much time to training the team and-since many of last year's team were back, we are going to the State meet to win. Abilene won the County Meet in a walk-over, as there were no Class A schools in the county, except Merkel, and she failed to show much interest in this phase of athletics. The District Meet we won by the score of 44 points, the nearest team being Stamford with 29 points. This year will be the last year for Shackelford and Axe, but with Hanna, Guitar, Bryan, Duke, and Acton back we expect to bring home the big cup again next year. --g2.. I :QL Aefwr " ..

I had one lightning impression of a blur of faces in the grandstand then a jar that almost popped my neck. The next few moments seemed like some kind of a night- mare to me. My body was wrenched and tortured by a twisting, turning whirlwind of horse- I was about ready to turn loose and be thrown when the horse paused for a single instant reared burst the mighty artery leading from his heart. I staggered up pushing men from me, and seeing Joe seated over against the fence I went to him. When I was seated by his side, he put his arm around me- Did I ride him Joe? I asked sleepily. You just bet you did! You re the best rider on the range and a pard to tie tol And with his words my longing was fulfilled. It was the hour of my great satisfaction! -ROY WARD. f51'8g,H Iiragrr Twinkle, twinkle, little Npenf, How I do hate to be in When a football game is on, Or my chum on a hunt has gone.
