CHARLES L. WILSON Among the necessary and entertaining programs of school life is the publishing of the bi-monthly newspaper and annual year- book. The guidance and leadership needed for producing these ear- marks of a well-rounded and versatile school year are to be found in the person of Mr. Charles L. Wilson. Without his con- stant striving and endeavoring to make the publications fulfill the school's ideals, probably the merits awarded them would never have become a reality. May Time treat him gently and smile kindly on his efforts to make this a better school and a better world in which to live. It is with this thought that we, the 1954 Bronco Staff, solemnly dedicate this memorial to him. Foreword . Here is your book. Long hours have been spent trying to make it a memorial that you will treasure all your life. We have tried to depict the growth and progress of Denton High School through these pages. Our success in doing this depends on how you, as a student, accept our efforts. Denton High School has made phenomenal strides toward becoming the best school, with the best faculty, and with the best student body in all of Texas. Not only have we tried to show extra-curricular activities, such as dances, sports, elections, assemblies, and clubs, but we have done something here- tofore considered radical and extreme for high school annuals. We have actually tried to picture the curricular side of high school through scenes from typical classroom procedure in each department in the school. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to every faculty mem- ber and to every student who has helped in some way to make this one of the most outstanding years in the history of Denton High School. As our seniors approach graduation, we extend to them our best wishes and hope the work they have done here will prove to be of value as they continue through life. We hope you enjoy the Bronco as much as we enjoyed publishing it. lt was ours for almost a year. Now it belongs to you.

Friendliness-Service-Social activities. These three things are the highlights of this club. Under the direction of Mrs. Cecile Bell McKelvey, the Hi-Lite Club has proved to be one of the most successful in school. This year the enrollment reached an all-time high, 160 enthusiastic members, all female. Girls in the Hi-Lite Club have a common characteristic known as friendliness. These ambassadors of good-will spread their bright smiles and cheery hellos through- out the halls of Denton High School and have brightened many sad faces. A part of their Be Friendly campaign consists of an annual get-acquainted tea to which all newcomers to D.H.S. are invited. The tea has a dual purpose, for it helps the new students to become better acquainted with other students and teachers, as well as providing plenty of entertainment and refreshments. Another annual project is the giving of cheerbaskets to needy families at Thanksgiving and Christmas. As part of their social activities, the Hi-Lite Club sponsors dances, parties, and hayrides which usually include the entire student body. All the members work hard on these activities and the result is a successful outcome of which everyone can be proud. 9 First row: Ann Cochran, Carol Baze, Barbara Baker, Jeanne Anne Bridges, Sue Walker, Mary Jo Newberg, Jo Ann Spindle, Marcia Wells, Max Burden, Jean Anderson.

F OOTLI GH T PLAYERS Even though the song does say Life upon the wicked stage is just too much for me,7' the members of the Footlight Players carefully ignore this warning and go happily on their way planning the newest production, which may range from serious drama to a gay, lighthearted comedy. This club, which was newly organized this year, consists of people interested in acting and improving their acting technique. On some of the programs, short skits are presented by different members and criticisms are offered by the other members. On several occasions guest speakers from North Texas State College and Texas State College for Women talked with the members.

If speaking is so important, then one should certainly make good use of it, as do a certain group of people who are members of the Forensic Club. Working closely with the speech department, the Forensic Club is actively interested in public speaking and has a good record in that field as a result. It is assured and proven that whatever the club chooses to do, it strives to do well.

SCIENCE CLUB The students in this club have varied interests in the fields of science. Working closely with class pro- jects and interests, their activities cover the ranges of science from radio and electrical jobs to biology and the mysteries of the test tube. Most of the students intend to carry on their interest in science to the ex- tent of making a vocation of it. This organization has made a good name for itself in times past. Various members of the group have won high awards for their studies and projects. These people now serve as examples and inspirations to the winners that are sure to follow if the Science Club keeps up the good work. OFFICERS-Mr. R. R.

Building and testing radio equipment are also major points of interest. The club specializes in sending code to points around the world. The club, through the year, made several field trips to study various phases of radio. The club provides an interesting and entertaining program for talented young men interested in radio.

INDUSTRIAL ARTS CLUB The creation of objects with the hands gives a great deal of satisfaction to members of the Industrial Arts Club. Even though some of them are not skilled artisans with their hands, they enjoy the feeling of accomplishing their goal. Most of them work with wood, leather, plastics, ceramics, and metal to fashion things for their homes or gifts for their friends. Each member is encouraged to develop a skill or a hobby as a pastime. This club does more for the peace of mind than any other by making successful use of a studentis leisure time.

PEP CLUB Pep, pep, and more pep! That is what this club has. With one of the largest en- rollments in school these girls really support their team. As a means of promoting school spirit, members of the club made and sold pom-poms. The Pep Club sponsors an athletic social both in the spring and fall for members of the athletic department, their dates, and members of the club. Sore throats, wind-blown hair, and frozen feet are trademarks of this highly-spirited club. It is worth it, though, because these girls are behind the Broncos all the way. OFFICERS-Mrs. C. E.

FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA 'LTO learn to do by doing could very well be the motto of the Future Homemakers of America. The members of this club realize the importance of being fully prepared to run their future homes with skill and efficiency. During national F.H.A. week all the new members are initiated into the Denton chapter. The initiation activities are climaxed by an assembly which is presented by the pledges. The assembly is an annual affair and the highlight of it is the crowning of an F.H.A. king. The activities for the year are planned the preceding summer by the officers who were elected at the close of the previous school year. One such activity was the trip to the State Fair of Texas. All the members of the state and nationally affiliated Future Homemakers of America in Denton High are justly proud of their work and their achievements.

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA A boy, shivering in his woolen jacket, carries a load of hay in one arm and a sack of oats under another. After the animals are fed and cared for, he takes another look at the winter wheat, growing fast and strong, then hurries to complete his many chores before the sound of his ma's voice calls him to a big country breakfast. This is an F.F.A. boy, working at one of the most necessary jobs in the world, the feeding of the multitude. He gets the best training and background in his varied classwork activities in high school. fhink of the satisfaction he must get as he looks back at lus well-kept farm home, healthy stock, and thriving grain that he has aided the Master in creating. As he turns to board the bus for school, he has every reason for happiness and confidence in the role he is playing.

FUTURE NURSES CLUB Realizing the importance of preparing for the future, this club is preparing for a career to aid its fellow men and women. The Future Nurses Club has taken many field trips to different hospitals and clinics in this area to observe and study trends in medicine and nursing technique. During their regular meetings, the members invite different speakers to talk to them about methods and hospitals. They also study the different branches and training centers for nurses. Most of these girls are convinced that they want a career in nursing and are serious in their pursuit of knowledge which will help them further their choice.

BOYS' SPORTS CLUB The old saying about Hbrawn but no brainsv does not necessarily apply to members of the Boys' Sports Club, for it takes both these qualities to make a good athlete. This club is unique in that it meets every day at activity period during the week, except homeroom period, to go over the rules and fundamentals of football and basketball. To help the boys realize the mistakes which were made in previous games, films are shown which show every play clearly and distinctly, so that they may be corrected in coming games. Good sportsmanship comes in for its share of study by this group, since that is one of the main purposes of the club. Character building is all-important to a well- rounded athlete and youth. Although the Boys' Sports Club has many purposes, the main one is to help the members realize that it matters not whether you win or lose, but how you play the gamef, D CLUB Swat! This little four-letter word carries with it a lot of feeling. Especially when it comes from a well-made paddle during initiation week of the D Club. Before a boy can even participate in this well-loved week or any activities sponsored by this club, he must have earned that purple and gold 'SDF' These boys have learned to work earnestly and with a winning spirit. Sportsman- ship is the key to the D Club and these boys unlocked the door when they learned to win or lose with a winning spirit. In addition to participating in the various sports, the D Club has been active in running the concession stands at the football and basketball games. The money derived from this is used for special club functions.

After the approval of the board, the plans are carried out. Once a month the Key Club is the guest of the Kiwanis Club at their weekly luncheon. Twice during the year, these young men present the program, proving them- selves to be able leaders of the future.

BAND CLUB When it is Wednesday and time for Band Club, one can find a lot of eager musicians around ye olde band hallf, These students enjoy getting away from the usual everyday classes for thirty minutes and indulging in music that ranges from longhair to modern music. The freedom to play any kind of music they want makes this club one ofthe most enjoyable at Denton High. Most of the members are members of the Bronco Band, but anyone who can play a musical instrument is eligible to join the club. Seated: Mr. Carroll McMath, Director. Standing: Charles Ray Smith.

The golfers of Denton High seem to think more of golf than just chasing a round sphere over the countryside. They see a sport which provides a great deal of enjoyment for the talented as well as the novice. The main purpose of this club is to teach the funda- mentals of golf. Some of the members even prepare for tournaments which they enter in the spring. OFFlCERSf,loe Brown, Presidentg Ed- die Huey, Treasurerg Dick McClendon. Vice Presidentg Sidney Erwin, Secre- tary.

A CAPPELLA CHOIR Blending harmoniously, the voices of the members of the A Cappella Choir come ring- ing through the halls of DHS every day. Sometimes the music, being Njazzf' rocks the rafters and sends the classes to jumpin ' and other times, a far-away look can be seen in the eyes of the students as they listen to a sentimental Negro spiritual or a religious anthem. Not only can their voices be heard around school, but the choir does a limited amount of traveling in and out of town to make appearances. After warbling their songs to the Kiwanis Club, a visitor remarked, Q'Wl1y'. thatls the best choir llve heard anywhere in the State of Texas.

Between the bellls ring and the conductor's L'Silencel'7 there is an ear-deafening activity with which even Times Square on Broadway cannot compete. The head-splitting shriek of a fatally injured saxophone reed, the drastically flat Htootw of a tuba, and the fervent, hopeless attempt of a trumpet to imitate Harry James all combine to give the most ubreathlessv sensations to be experienced-hearing and seeing the Bronco Band tune up. It sounds bad then, but an instant later, with slender baton poised in the air for a second and breaths drawn in, there is the tiniest fragment of silence, then music. It is music created by a group of people who have worked and worked hard for a long time. They have struggled to learn that '6Every Good Boy Does Finef, they have come to school at eight a.m. to practice and march, march, march, and they have braved freezing weather to perform out on the football field for their school and team. lt has been worth every bit of time and labor, though, for if they had not put that backbone into their life, there would not be those first-place records and pride in accomplish- ment that is now theirs to have and to hold. No little credit goes to Band Director Carroll McMath, who has helped make an enviable record for the Denton High School Bronco Band. af 5 iw, my Z, W rg, mf CHEER ,, M Q MW S N- 4.

The Denton High Student Council planned a n i elaborate Homecoming celebration for Denton stu- dents and exes. The night before Homecoming, ax pep rally was held' around a gigantic bonfire i front of the school. The bonfire was prematurel set off the night before and burned to the ground, but it was built back bigger than ever the next day. After the pep rally, a snake dance was held. Friday morning, November 20th, Denton High exes presented an assembly to the student body. Friday night, the Broncos played one of their best games of the season, although the Sherman Bearcats won, 7-0. Some forsook the dance floor for a crack at the bear with the electric gun. Don Lipscomb takes dead aim as Joe Bowers and Cleveland Crombie watch. Students made this 36 foot cardboard replica of a Bronco gridder. Wouldn't you know it rained that day. n i Y t 5, f - 1, ,H Sadie Hawkins Day The Sadie Hawkins Day dance, November 111-th, was sponsored by the Hi-Lite Club this year for the first time. Heretofore, the annual staff has sponsored the Dogpatch celebration. About 80 couples attended the dance and par- ticipated in the activities. The girls cooked up a sack race, cakewalk, string game, and foot race fDogpatch stylel. Nearly all the girls came back with a man, but the ones who didn't had to pay a forfeit. The dance was backward with the girls inviting the boys, furnishing transportation, picking up the tab, and making cors-ages for the boys. Janelle Crimes, president of the Hi-Lite Club, worked hard with her committees to make the dance one of the outstanding of the year. The four finalists in the sharp dressers' con- test were Teddy Broyles, John Troeger, Bill Hinkle, and David Boles. Where else but in Dento-. er, Dogpatch would you see four more handsome specimens? Voted the most typically dressed couple at the get-together were Leopard Girl tCarol Dooley? and Pappy Yokum fBill Hinklet. The little gym was decorated in a Dogpatch motif, with hay, lanterns, gay streamers. and tow sacks. All couples came dressed as their favorite A1 Capps' comic strip characters. 4'0uta mah way, 'fore she grabs me and hauls me off to Marryin' Sam, shouts John Troeger as he tries to elude a panting Daisy Mae. Four fetching females who were final- ists in the feminine pulchritude contest were Carol Dooley, Justine Boozman. Jeanne Anne Bridges, and Wanda Waggoner. 1 1 1 1, ,-- tw 1.

JOURNALISM The art of expression and communication has become an important skill to be taught and learned in high school. Journalism students are fulfilling a two-fold purpose as they publish Denton Highls two publications, the Horseshoe and the Bronco. The newspaper and annual serve as an important link between the school and community as they attempt to give a true picture of high school activities.

SCIENCE Sever at al stud tended CIIIS th ' Hlon - December' 9 Texas JS' .With Mr Young scientists in Denton High get a very comprehensive survey of science at work in their chemistry, biology, and physics classes. The courses are geared to a high school level and students learn practical things which will stand them in good stead, whether they plan to continue in the science field or go into some other suitable profession. One of the highlights of the year for the science department was their move to their new wing the first of February. umor ACad2-n33JLIPeSTay10r and A Gif-1,06 H R. R ieet jn C I . Hyman 3 veezo X n st V 5 4 BEFORE The homemaking department moved into its new wing during January. The transition was like a ray of sunshine to the students and instructors. The modern surroundings gave a vivid contrast to the drab equipment and rooms which the department had occupied previously. H OMEMAKIN G AFTER Homemaking covers a variety of things. It includes beauty care, such as the demonstra- tion here shows, gardening, home beautifica' tion, meal planning, clothes designing, and many other helpful ideas for the homemaker. On their annual assembly, the Future Horne- makers' Club crowned Vaughn Wayne Meadors as their king. Note the appropriateness of the skillet crown. i Q i. 5. if was S. '+... A',,,J A Mr! The satisfaction of creating things with the hands and, at the same time, learning a skill or trade are two of the primary purposes of the lndustrial Arts Department. Here boys and girls work with wood, metal, leather, ceramics, plastics, and drawing tools for a more satisfactory use of leisure, as well as occupational time. Students. such as Ruby Fuller, work in pleasant, con- gcnial atmosphere as they learn merchandising. INDUSTRIAL ARTS Shop lnstructor Wade Frederickson explains to his woodworking class the fundamentals of wood turning on the lathe. Denton High offers one of the most complete Me- chanical Drawing courses in the state. ,, 5 2 ? DISTRIBUTIVE Distributive Education is a relatively new phase in the modern concept of edu- cating young citizens for their role in community life. D.E., as it is called, is the study and on-the-job training of high school students in the field of dis- tribution of goods and services. L 5 Vocational Agriculture is a ntradev school for boys who are interested in farming, raising livestock, and general agricultural practices. They make field trips to farms and ranches in the county to study recognized practice. They also have home projects of livestock or crops and keep minute records of all business trans- actions pertaining to their project. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE Repairing farm machinery is one of the many things learned in vocational agriculture shop periods. Boys actually bring work from home to weld and repair. It seems that these farmers have pretty good taste in feminine pulchritude. They chose Mary Lou Moore as their chapter sweetheart. Every phase of retailing is learned, from merchandis- ing to selling. Here, Helen Coulter makes signs for a coming sale. EDUCATION Students enroll for their regular aca- demic courses in the morning, but in the afternoon and on Saturday, they work at various retail or service stores in Denton. The Distributive Education Co- ordinator, Mr. Homer Bronstad, keeps in close touch with each employer to check on the progress of the trainees. The Music Department of Den- ton High School has quite a string of achievements behind it. Both the Bronco Band and the A Cap- pella Choir have won state recog- nition, both in group work and in individual solos. This speaks well for the excel- lent training students are getting in instrumental and vocal music. Music appreciation is stressed very much, also. MUSIC A lot of work goes into transforming the group at the left into the one at the right. A band needs to put forth some good music to go along with its marching routine. Below, the A Cappella Choir, under the direction of Mr. Jerry Jackson, rehearse a number scheduled for presentation on a future program. Each note has to be perfect. Sometimes, a whole period is devoted to getting just the right inflection into a measure. COMMERCIAL ARTS The Denton High Commercial Arts Department offers a wide va- riety of subjects to prepare stu- dents for the business and com- mercial world. Beginning and ad- vanced typing is offered, along with shorthand, bookkeeping, sec- retarial training, and stenography. The department also tries to help the student in job placement and recommendation. Denton High is rather proud, and justly so, of its achievements and records in preparing students for vocations dealing with mathe- matics. Not only are two years of algebra and one year of general math offered, but boys and girls may elect to go farther and take plane and solid geometry or trig- onometry. Needless to say, the classes never want for students. In typing, practice makes perfect and students have frequent speed tests and drills to increase their speed and perfection Colorful wall charts add to the challenge of the class MATHEMATICS Although most of the math classes are overcrowded the teacher attempt to give as much individual attention and help to the student as she can Here, Mrs. Maurice Hutchinson, algebra instructor helps James Cogdell with a problem. SPANISH Foreign language courses try to teach the customs and mores of the different countries, as well as how to speak, read, and understand the language. Here, Spanish students learn one of the native dances of Mexico. XX we . Mag? FRENCH Students try to capture the thrill of the French side- walk cafe. They learn how to read menus printed in French and how to order and recognize French cooking. Travelogues also aid in showing a true picture of France. S.. LAN G U AGES ENGLISH English teachers attempt to supplement their litera- ture and grammar classes with audio-visual material. Here. Miss Eulah McElroy shows her Senior literature class some slides from England. 'WJ' LA TIN Students are usually fascinated when they learn how many of our English words stem from a Latin root. This knowledge is of great value in understanding our own language, as well as others. Here, Latin students demonstrate the dress of early Romans. Students learn the fundamentals of stage make-up in their dramatics classes as well as self- confidence and poise on the stage. SPEECH Learning how to express oneself orally is of prime importance to this department. Students overcome shyness and speech handicaps in a way which is fun for everyone. Plays are presented on assembly programs several times during the year. Students write, direct, and act out their own productions. Individual training is given to students for contest participation and they travel all over the state to enter these tournaments. In fact, Denton High speech students are respect- ed in all the best circles because they are such frequent winners in invitational tournaments and lnterscholastic League contests. .35 at Emile Here, an all-girl Cast read through their lines for a drama to be presented on assembly. Students from both the colleges in Denton helped install the local chapter of Footlight players. .ted HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Physical and Health Education program at Denton High School places a great deal of emphasis on taking care of the human body. Exercise also plays an important role in the program. Students are taught nutrition, first aid, and good grooming as a part of a balanced course of study. The department also aids in preventive pro- grams, such as testing for defective vision and hearing, chest x-rays, etc. Competitive sports which are in season afford both boys and girls a chance to exercise and learn the fundamentals of playing well together. Here, girls learn how to give artificial respiration in their health education class. Other methods of first aid, such as bandaging. care for the sick, etc., are also stressed. Also included in the physical education program are competitive sports. Here, outstanding members of the Bronco football team are honored at an annual sports banquet. ,u.I-Q-Emi, YAAAY,,mWq,i , H . . -M87 2 at n-nun -in :mv--lull Early training in ballot casting will help these young citizens when they reach voting age and are able to choose their own public officials. SOCIAL STUDIES Individual projects help students visu- alize the structure of present forms of from the local level to the Here, Harold and Gerald explain to the American government, international. Blankemeyer History class their poster of the United Nations organization. The Social Studies Department operates on the theory that high school students are citizens today, as well as citizens of tomorrow. Most of them leave their courses in American History, Civics, Economics, and Sociology with a better understanding of the workings of de- mocracy than their elders. The principles upon which these United States were founded are installed into their DRIVER EDUCATION Recent surveys have shown the amazing decrease in the accident rate of students having had Driver Training as compared with the increase in the rate of those who have been haphazardly trained by parents and friends. If human lives and suffering could be measured in dollars and cents, the value of this course would run into count- less millions. Students are given a semester of intensive Safety Education, which is followed by a semester behind the wheel of a car. Dual-controlled cars are furnished the stu- dents, not only to learn to drive, but to learn how to maintain and service efficiently. Here, Driving Instructor Doyle Chrisman points out vital parts of an engine. minds and they begin to appreciate their heritage. if . .arf at i 'H-as Traffic problems and situations are set up on this traffic board with model cars to show neophyte drivers the right and wrong way to handle their automobiles. 1 M-, WZTMV SPORTS .rx ,L I 1 nf, Q Q-Ghz -, 1, 'V' rjzfzlzg cnliiicf f-, -V, . cg, LN, '3.1k,.5g,,?.3 5ugj'?7'??3Yf ,u ck ki I ' .1 rl L Q76 J lf!

TENNIS Prospects for the 1954- tennis season looked bright as the yearbook went to press this spring. Five returning lettermen helped form the nucleus of the team. Several good prospects moved up from Junior High. Among them was Dan Hinkle, sophomore, and brother of letterman Bill Hinkle. The Hinkle brothers have teamed together all year to win trophies and tournaments in this area. Coach Zeke Martin, who was an out- standing tennis star in his high school days at Denton High, held the reins for the second year as tennis tutor. 1 -5 an ,N COACH CECIL lZEKEl MARTIN I f , xt W ,.st My 1 p.

He was faced with the problem of rebuilding the track team into a winning one. He was moderate- ly successful, since the Denton High team came in second in dis- trict competition. Two barriers, Lee Amyx and Bill Carrico, took firsts in the district meet. Amyx set a new district mark in the broad jump and Carrico took the blue ribbon in the weight division. An even better showing is ex- pected of these boys this year, since there are more lettermen re- turning and the prospects from new boys look good.

He inherited seven lettermen from the previous year and it fell to his lot to fill in the vacant places on the team. Assistant Principal John Guyer gave up the reins of baseball coach to devote full time to administration work. BILL COGDELL GARLAND WARREN JUUIOF Senior wfse f: N .,,r, EN - inf - iii ,ff .

BOBBY GRISHAM Senior CECIL IZEKEP MARTIN Coach This marked the second year that Coach Martin guided the young amateurs on their tours of golf links in this area. GOLF This was the second year that an organized golf team had represented Denton High School against other schools in this area. Three lettermen from the 1953 team formed the nucleus of the 1954 team. They were Lanier Wilson. Joe Bowers, and Donald Moore. Helping these three out in the team matches was Don Hurst, sophomore, with quite a bit of tournament experience behind him. Golf, like track, is a sport that calls for a great deal of individual ability. These boys spend a few hours nearly every day of the year practicing their putting, drives, and ap- proach shots. Most of them have been play- ing since they were as tall as a golf club and have developed a sincere love for the game. Last year the team placed second in district competition behind Highland Park. This en- titled them to enter the regional meet in Dallas. 1954 GOLF SQUAD Lanier Wilson. Jackie Harris. Don Hurst. Dick McClendon. Joe Coulter. Jerry McCombs, and J oe Bowers. smmmnmum 1953 GOLF LETTERMEN The golf team of 1953 was the first one Denton High School had sponsored in several years. Popular demand from the boys and opportunity for matches with surrounding cities brought back this highly competitive and skillful sport. Most of the team had been playing golf on their own for several years, but having a team of their own gave them added incentive to better their game. DONALD LANIER WILSON l ffl l J OE BOWERS MOORE Denton has always been a good golfing town, having two 13-hole courses. It is also the home of the famous North Texas State College Eagle golfing team, which has been national collegiate champion for four consecu- tive years.

The prospect of summer vacation sends happy echoes through the resounding halls of Denton Senior High School. Some will walk down these steps for the last time, never to return again. Some will be happy, some will be sad, others will be bewildered by the future ahead, but most will be prepared to face that future squarely and honest- ly, knowing full well they are ready. If these stained and stolid walls could speak, what secret would they reveal? Are they merely masses of rock and mortar, used only for a functional purpose? No, this and other buildings like it are living symbols of man's thirst and quest for truth and knowledge. As you go out the door, down the steps, and on the sidewalk, stop, look back and up at the silent majesty of this building. Give it a smile and a 'Thank You before you go on your way. fReprint from 1952 Broncol V, x .we Lest ye forget! YF ' -4, , Q- ' ,K -' -M fn ,, 5, ,NK A :mx . f. , .
