PATMAN Sponsor COLLEGE PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS Campus Photographers AUTRY ' S STUDIO Official Photographprs Millions of years ago natural laws, bowing to a Higher Law, moulded and placed at our very door a cathedral complete with rocky altars, rough-hewn pillars, strange statuary, and a blue- ceilinged dome — the Palo Duro Canyons. They might well be considered a symbol of college life and associations, which, like the canyons, are formed through the rugged processes of experience and learning. We have therefore endeavored to weave bits of Palo Duro beauty and dignity in this record of our school life and trust that its memories will be refreshed in your minds as you look through this book. . 2i lo . : buildings administration classes organizations eat u res athletics student life advertising buildings W: •siBr; ' ' - 1. " " -s-iSI-: The brilliant color of rugged Palo Duro Canyon is comparable to that of its famed sister in Arizona. Co- ronado must have been a surprised Spaniard when he first stood upon the rim of Palo Duro Canyon that day in the year 1541. Sated with scenery and fevered with gold lust though he was, the explorer could not have looked unmoved upon one of nature ' s greatest dramatic masterpieces. Certainly it never fails to im- press the tourists who have visited the canyon in ever-growing numbers since it was opened as a state park late in 1933. «•»»•- J r U » -» ' ' »■ » W One of the boasts of Amarillo Col- lege has always been its beautiful campus. Landscaped in grass, shrubs, and flowers, our buildings stand as symbols of higher educa- tion, beauty, and culture. On these next pages are pictured scenes that will live in our memories long after college days are over. «««1MU. ■ -.m?- - m m ' . ' . iw - ' iSS i?i % .

Its dramatic quality is due mainly, however, to its location and its brilliant coloring. Even in rugged country it would be spectacular. Slashed 1120 feet deep through a flat plateau, it produces an overpowering ef- fect upon the beholder, especially if he is seeing it for the first time; the Texas gorge is recogniza- ble at first glance as a production in full techni- color. A. M. MEYER, PRESIDENT B. A., M. A., Indiana University Ph. D., George Peabody College To the Class of 1951: The years roll on with great rapidity. Your class is the first class to graduate in the second half of the twentieth century. What promise this half centiuy holds is a matter for much speculation. It is sufficient for you and other college men and women to remember that even though the times are troublous there is a way out for each individual. This way, it seems to me, is to be found by each of us rededicating ourselves to the tasks of our present jobs and by putting not only our hands but our hearts into cur daily work. We can find much joy in our work if we cast about daily for opportunities for service to humanity as well as to ourselves. Humanity with all its tears can be solaced with the altruism of sincere men and women of good will. May you who have recently sojourned at Amarillo College join with others in a crusade for finding a way out through a life of useful service! Sincerely yours. . - ' - JOSEPH B. DAVIS, DEAN B. A., Central College M. A., Columbia University M. S., Northwestern University Students of 1951: The PALO DURO this year portrays student life during Amarillo College ' s twenty-second year. Some of the beauty spots of Palo Duro Canyon are pictured, along with beauty spots and interesting events on the campus. A feeling of permanence is an impression that any visitor to the Canyon gets. The signs indicating the millions of years that have elapsed since the outcroppings were formed denote that here is something that endures. The 1951 PALO DURO shows evidences of many enduring features of college life: friendships that develop when students work together in clubs or on teams; self-confidence and a desire for perfection that come as a result of sustamed effort; good habits of study and of budgeting one ' s time; tolerance or respect for the personality of others, that comes from basing opinions upon knowledge rather than upon prejudices; and a growing appreciation of the things you see and hear each day. Everything you learn in college should help to make life richer and more interesting. This PALO DURO should help to keep alive the memory of the many happy activities of the past year, and should be a pleasant reminder of things that endure. Sincerely yours. BOARD OF TRUSTEES BLACKBURN, E. M., JR. President i WILSON, R. A. Vice-President WADDILL, G. M. Secretary-Treasurer KELLY, H. SIM McAFEE, C. LANE In the comparatively short time of the existence of Amarillo College it has grown to be one of the outstanding small colleges in the United States. From a meager beginning in the rear of the Municipal Auditorium, the college now has several millions of dollars invested in build- ings and equipment. This physical equipment, administered by men and women of proven ability and unsurpassed leadership, together with a student body that includes many of the leaders of our future citizenship, makes us, as members of the Board of Trustees, justifiably proud that we have had even a small port in the building and maintaining of this great in- stitution. mmmmpf mmmm ROBERTS, GUS R.

The 90,000,000 or so years of water erosion that created the canyon made it, among other things, a geologist ' s dream. Nature used different pigments in coloring each of the layers, so that the result is kaleidoscopic, but the dominant color is a soft red that varies in shade v iih the degree of sunlight. 1» y .

In spite of her heavy class load and of- fice work, she finds time for her favorite forms of entertain- ment, dances and basketball games. Incidentally, Mildred is an attendant to the Basketball Queen. Jackey Weirick Vera WUcojcsoh Freshman music major Vera Wilcoxson has become a popular and skillful musician through twelve years of piano study. She plays the organ, in addition to the piano, and amuses herself with the ukulele. Although she is a member of B. S. U., Sig- mas, and Choir and participates in many AC assembly programs and Baptist serv- ices. Vera manages to find time for such pastimes as sewing and painting Dresden.

Two years later. Colonel Charles Goodnight established his ranch headquarters in a dugout still to be seen within the park. He captured and cared for a few buffalo calves to found a domesticated herd which for many years preserved the memory of the innu- merable hordes that once grazed the plains. yTfo- " ■ -.i V » i- Ja » ' . - .

Carter Coach Corbett Bridges Co-Captain Al Hutchison Co-Captain The Blue and Gray of 1951 closed the regular season with very satisfactory results. The Bad- gers played teams from Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Texas this year and encountered some fine com- petition with which to prove themselves a great team. The Cartermen participated in two tournaments this year, winning the consolation in the Garden City Invitational Tournament and the Region Five Champion- ship in the tournament in their own gym. The 1951 edition of the Badgers made a good showing by beating their Alumni in a great game during the Christmas holidays by a score of 57-54. The only exhibition game undertaken by the Badgers was with the Flying Wheels, a team of paralyzed veterans playing in wheel chairs. At the end of the fine season, the Varsity sported a good record of 8 losses and 18 wins. As the year- book goes to press, the Badgers ore preparing for the National Tournament in Hutchison, Kansas.

Basketball Queen Lou Lynne Rogers with at- tendants Nova Alsbrooks, Helen Curtis, Mildred Zweig, and Jockey Weir- ick. Her Majesty and court JUNIOR VARSITY The 1950 Badger Junior Varsity Squad had a bad season this year with only three wins in thirteen starts. All these boys who played with the JV ' s gained valuable ex- perience which will be very helpful to the Varsity next year. The Freshman wins offset the loss- es of the JV ' s. This group had a high scoring, fast-breaking team all year. Prospects for a great season next year look good. Karl Denton Bob Elder Bill Harris Manuel Esquivel James Hutchison ( Garden City fielded a fine quintet ihis year, defeat- ing us on our home court. The Badgers fought back hard, but they never could get going against a stiff Garden City defense. The Badgers came out on the short end of a 47-39 score. The top picture is Leon Doche under the basket for a shot. The second photo is Ed Lee in for two points, while the last picture is Bridges in for a lay-up. The Badgers played three games with the Howard County Jayhawkers during the season. The first was play- ed on our own court and was taken by the Badgers by a 63-53 score. The second game Big Spring took 66-65. The play-off game in Lubbock to decide the West Zone Championship was won by the Jayhawkers 74-62. All these games with the Jayhawkers displayed some great action. The top photo is Corbett Bridges in for a shot despite the efforts of a Big Spring boy. The second pic- ture is Art McKay up for a shot under the basket. The last shot is Bridges up for two points. Clarendon Junior College played two games against the Bad- gers this season, both of which were taken by the Badgers. The first game was won by a score of 74-50. The second game was much closer, being won only by a 59-56 score. In the first picture. Jim Bur- ris goes high for a tally as Ed Lee, Al Hutchison, and Corbett Bridges look on. Seitz goes up for the reboimd as Roy Lee Sparkmon watches the action for a chance at the ball. Photo three pictures Bridges in for a shot as Burns and Banks go for the ball. The next picture show- Eddie Lee up for a shot and two points. Of the two games played -with Frank Phillips Jr. College, the Badgers took both of them. The first in Borger was won by 58-23. The second played on our home court was a fine game with lots of ac- tion. The Borger boys gave our boys trouble with their long shots and floor work. The game ended 56-50. The picture at left shows Ed Lee going in for a shot. The other is the initial tip-off with Al Hutchison up for the Badgers. The paraplegic boys in the Flying Wheel Chairs took a well-played game from the Bad- gers. It was a fine exhibition game, and the Flying Wheels won the fans ' hearts. They ' re a great bunch of stout-hearted fellows. The photo at left shows Roy Burnett with the ball and Valton Tucker standing by for the pass; the other shot shows the ball just after it left Bridges ' hands. I We met the Jayhawkers on the first night of the Region Five Tournament and took a fine game from them by a 72-46 score. The top picture shows Lee up foi a shot despite a Jayhawker. The second is Al Hutchinson up- on completing a hook-shot. Doche watches the ball for a chance at it while Vern Irwin and Merle Denny await a chance at the rebound in the last pictiue. The championship game of the Region Five Tourna- ment featured the Badgers vs. the hard fighting Claren- don Bulldogs, who outscored Cisco Jr. College to gain a berth in the finals. The Badgers came out on top of that thriller by a 52-49 score. The top shot pictures four Bad- gers and four Bulldogs awaiting a rebound. The next picture is Ed Lee in for a lay-up shot and two points. Photo three shows Bob Patterson up for a shot as a Clarendon boy tries to block it. In the last picture, Art McKay and Jim Burris await the rebound on Al Hutchin- son ' s shot if it should miss. REGION FIVE CHAMPIONS Co-Captains Bridges and Hutchison receive the Region Five Championship Trophy for the Badgers. A proud coach, his captains, and the trophy SPRING SPORTS The spring sports for 1951 have only a few returning lettermen this year. Track seems to be the strong- est with four contenders in the sprints and middle distances. Even though Art McKay is the sole re- turning letterman on the links, there are some fine freshman prospects. Southpaw Corbett Bridges is the only tennis player back. At year- book deadline none of the squads had had any action, but good re- sults were expected. i-irr ' -?. fer ' RETURNING TRACK LETTERMEN Bobby Phillips, Bob Hudgins, Kenneth Kohler, and Ray Jackson r -- RETURNING GOLF LETTERMAN Art McKay RETURNING TENNIS LETERMAN Corbett Bridges MEN ' S INTRAMURALS Intramural athletics play a big part in the sports program of Amarillo College.

The Usher instructs the Jury that they need pay no attention when the defendant speaks; and the gentlemen are ob- viously prejudiced against Edwin. Even the Judge is be- witched by Angelina ' s beauty, and Edwin finds his plight sad indeed. After a most confusing session of court the Judge announces that he himself will wed the plaintiff, beautiful Angelina. Judge Jim Burris Plaintiff Joardis Burnett Counsel for Plaintiff Neil Hawkins Defendant Raymond Morrison Usher Jim Restine Foreman of the Jury Paul White Chorus Amarillo College Choir DOWN IN THE VALLEY Opera presentation has become traditional at Amarillo College. The college opera is an all-school affair. The College Choir is featured, but the College Players are always on hand to take acting parts and to handle stagecraft details. The art and carpentry classes prepare all scenery and properties. Journalism students assist in publicity. The entire Music De- partment participates, voice students singing roles in the opera and instrumental music students forming a theater orchestra. DOWN IN THE VALLEY, a folk opera built around the mountain song of the same name, is the story of young love. Definitely not of a hillbilly na- ture, the folk opera contains some fine music and is based on an interesting story woven around the emotions of a mountain boy who is awaiting execu- tion for the murder of a rival. The boy escapes from jail and returns home to see his sweetheart. His freedom is shortlived but is long enough for him to know that his sweetheart has a lasting love for him.
