DEDICATION
For his faithful work and marked enthus-
iasm, we sincerely dedicate this, the Fif-
teenth Edition of our annual "The Spur,"
to Mr, Fred Baker. It would have been an
endless effort to publish an annual without
his guiding hand and his brilliance in such
matters.

FOREWORD
lt has not been the primary purpose of the
editorial staff to compile a volume of statistics
or tabulated information concerning the school
or its work, though we hope and believe that the
progress of our Alma Mater will be made evident,
and that this book will reflect the true El Paso
l-ligh spirit-the spirit which has won so many
victories and in so few years, secured for us a
place of recognized standing among our rival
schools.
It has, however, been our aim to put together
in permanent and accessible form those things
which, when time has made it difficult, will help
us recall the faces of friends who cheered us
when discouraged, and the incidents which re-
lieved the monotony of recurring duties, little
items which will help us to live again among the
scenes and hear the words which made our years
so happy here. ln short, we have endeavored to
give you a treasured souvenir of the "good ole
high school days."

EL PASO ,HIGH SCHOOL
El Paso High School, the school on the side of the hill, has stood
thru the years giving more and more to each student who enters it,
and establishing in its course of time, new traditions that will for-
ever live with the school. To a school such as ours, no person could
deny it faithfulness. We feel that it is our goal when we begin as
Freshmen, that it is our desire as we progress to Sophomores, that
it is our ambition as we step forward to Juniors, and that it is a
part of us when we step into Seniorship. Then as we are graduated,
the school becomes a past so vivid it seems to be the present. Never
do we leave the school, for life is a complete school of learning. All
who are educated in the El Paso High School feel the binding power
and surging school spirit that prevails in it and its surroundings. Our
school was first located in what is now known as The Elks Club,
later being moved to the school now called Morehead. The present
location was completed in l9l6 and is rated as one of the finest
schools in the Southwest. The stadium, with a capacity of l0,000,
is named the Sun Bowl.
The honors which have been bestowed on our school are too
numerous to account for in detail. Our students, loving their school,
have worked earnestly to give recognition and glory to this insti-
tution which although many have graduated, is still endeared in their
hearts.
ln any educational institute, school spirit backs all, accomplishes
all and is the basis of all enterprises successfully undertaken. By
school spirit we mean the feeling which surges within us pushing us
ahead to better things, making our goal seem nearer to us, arousing
in us a new will to attain it, and lastly giving us the never-failing
courage to put our school at the top.
All visitors who enter the school find that they are no longer
visitors but practically one of us. Meaning by that that they are
made to feel accustomed to their surroundings and join in activities
other than as spectators. lt is a known fact to all visitors of the
relationship between students and faculty. Mutual courtesies and
friendliness are excelled nowhere.
Students, it would be hard to find a school to compare with ours,
so if by chance, you haven't done so, before-LOOK UP TO YOUR
SCHOOL-it's here to help you. Be loyal Tigers, to fight and to gain
for the El Paso High School

Mrs. Byrnes, Registrar ' I
9
The Office hath charms to waft away our wrong inclinations and
start us in the way of a prosperous life. It is the first part of the
schbol to which the new student is introduced. Tosome it may seem
a fearful place to enter, for an office has an important sound at-
tached to itg but to others it means a place to secure help and
adkfice. Our feeling of friendship for the office increases as we live
and learn. It is there that much is done by lvlrs. Byrnes and Mrs.
Aycock to clarify uncertainties and lessen perplexities. To talk to
Mrs. Byrnes, our Registrar and Business Administrator, is to become
acquainted with a sweet smile, a brilliant mind and a willingness
always to lend a helping hand. She can say "no" as pleasantly as she
says "yes," and if you're interested, she never fails to balance the
credit and debit columns of all irregular finances. lvlrs. Aycock,
assistant to Mr. Jones, is ever on hand to assist you with difficulties
also. Any little favor, she is willing to do it for you.
We believe we have considerable justification in saying this, for
Mrs, Byrnes and Mrs. Aycock have been very patient and under-
standing with the entire Spur Staff.

Cabeza De Vaca Enters Texas-Alvor Nunez, first white man definitely known to have
set foot on soil of Texas-more familiarly known as Cabeza de Vacaesurvivor of terrifying
experiences that reduced the ship's crew to one man -was impressed sufficiently by natural sur-
roundings to have written a record of his adventures - a source of inspiration to others - so that
the history of Texas may be said to date from a day in i528 when a remnant of Panfilo de
Naryaez's expedition-fitted out as a part of Spain's expansion program-washed ashore at
the present site of Galveston. De Vaca, more fortunate than his miserable companions-eluded
his Indian captors-and found his way thru the wilderness back to Mexico after many years-
to bring the world a fantastic story of a strange new land on the shores of the Mexican Gulf.

Establishment of the Missions - Religious fervor, earnestly desiring to convert Indians
to Christianity-combined with political undercurrent- provoked the establishment of Spanish
mission colonies in early i690-when Father ivlassanet-who journeyed the previous year with
Alonso de Leon to La Salle's ill-fated colony-opened a mission near the present town ot
Crockett-hostility ofthe Indians, however, and the hardships caused the missions to be
abandoned. Nevertheless, the i8th century held in store a new period ot mission development
-the missions were encountered by misfortune and abandoned-those of greatest impor-
tance were moved to San Antonio and permanently established.

Derivation of Name Texas-Alvarez de Peneda, Spanish navigator and map maker.
sailed along the Gult Coast and Florida in l5l9 and named the intervening coastal country
Amichal. Various other names were subsequently applied to the regionaand in the early
mission days the name TEXAS came into common usage-originating according to some au-
thorities, from the roft-shaped abodes of native Indians-dcalled in Spanish "tejas" or "texas"
-others believe that the name was derived from a shortening ot lvlixtecas-as the inhabitants
were called, being descendants. The most popular explanation credits the name to an Indian
word ot salutation, tehas-a synonym tor friend, that greeted the ears ot Spanish explorers
in East Texas. T

' Stephen F. Austin and His Colonies-The chance meeting of Baron de Bastrop and
Moses Austin in San Antonio-whence Austin had gone to petition the governor for rights to
colonize-changed hopeless despair to success and made possible the settlements-although
the elder Austin never lived to see the completion, his son was fully capable and brought many
colonists. Many times, safety was jeopardized-officials interfered and when the new govern-
ment was established, Austin was forced to Mexico City to claim his rights. He was imprisoned
for two years, a price paid for his people-and planted more firmly the Republic of Texas.

The Lexington of Texas-Although minor disturbances, such as Hayden Edwards'
Fredonian Rebellion - and the uprising at I-Xnahauc -contributed to the feeling of unrest in the
coloniesethe first significant move in the Texas Revolution-took place at Gonzales, the
Lexington of Texas, on October 2, i835 -the shot was fired which started the Revolution.-A
Mexican army under Captain Castenado- marched on Gonzales with an order to surrender a
small brass cannon loaned by the Commandante of Bexar as a protection against lndians. The
citizens hurriedly organized several volunteer companies-and the forces under Col. John l-l.
Moore successfully resisted the Mexicans and immediately took the aggressive side. The Revolu-
tion was now begun.

Declaration of Independence-The most important point or event that ever took place
on Texas soil -that incident was one ot the most momentous in all Texas history-the Con-
stitutional Convention. There had been serious attempts to unite the people ot the colonies
against Mexico.-- lra wrote a declaration ot Independence, as signed by ninety-two members
at Goliad-September 2, l836, and many were high in hopes. In the protection ot Washing-
ton-on-the-Brazos some ot the men were on hand to protect and make plans tor their political
and social independence-these brought forth a great document in the history ot Texas-
On that eventful day, March 2, i836-the colonies became a united group, sincere, hopeful
and determined to win their freedom.

The Massacre at Goliad-The massacre ot Fannin and his men at Goliad was certainly
more brutal and unnecessary than the tall ot the Alamo. The men ot the Alamo died fight-

spurred the colonists finally to victory -- the occurrence was a tragic one that could have been
avoided. Fannin and his men died bravely even it they had no chance to tight against death,

Battle of San Jacinto
The most glorious and decisive event of the
entire struggle for Texas Independence was the
Battle of San Jacinto-one of the shortest and
most important battles of the world's warfare-
yet it marked the long culmination of hardship
-a final, enlightening day that brought succor
after months of suffering. Not the least to
suffer was Sam Houston-for his was the job
I441
to restrain the eager Texans in the face of ridi-
cule. Sam Houston decided the chance had
come as he surveyed the over-confident Mexicans
on the Buffalo Bank-and in a few minutes on
the afternoon of April 2l, IS36, the Texans
made good the opportunity and left no doubt as
to future security of the Lone Star Republic.

The Texas Republic Progresses
Sam l-louston, a leader in war-was equally
as fine a leader at peace, and like George Wash-
ington, he played a major part in the organiza-
tion of government and social and economic life
after he had assisted in throwing off the bonds
of oppression, The great natural resources re-
sponded immediately to development-and in a
few years thriving rural communities covered the
l451
country almost entirely-a far off cry from
conditions reigning two decades before. Under
Houston, Lamar and Jones, the laws were form-
ulated-commerce, diplomacy, education and
industry prospered- in short, Texas was begin-
ning to benefit from the natural wealth that had
made the territory many times a scene of con-
quests.

. Texas Joins the Union
The first real development in Texas- it has
been pointed out-took place with the intro-
duction of American families into Texas. Spain,
and later Mexico, made no attempt to maintain
a friendly feeling with these colonies -families
often sent their children to other states to be
educated. Texas was always considered a natu-
ral social, economic, and political subdivision of
the United States. When Mexico violated her
agreements, the colonists felt that they were no
l45l
longer bound-and Texas had a right to do as
she wished. After the Republic was established
Texas and the United States grew closer. lt
was no surprise to the world when on June 23Q
l845, the Congress of Texas passed a joint reso-
lution of annexation which had been approved
by the Congress of the United States. On
July 4, following-after a convention-this
was ratified by the people and went into effect.

was defeated in San Angelo by the San Angelo Bobcats in the bi-district fray 7-O.
A harder running, faster charging, and more alert group of young men has not been seen

GEORGE ATTEL:
A three-year letterman, George was
a stalwart of strength on the defense

undoubtedly the outstanding line-man
on the Tiger squad. He was placed on
the All-District Eleven by every paper.
WILLARD WOOLVERTON:
Willard starred at a regular halt-back post until he was injured in the Bowie
game. He was forced to remain on the side-lines until the San Angelo game in which

Although only a Sophomore, Bob proved that a hard fighter can
overcome those that have more speed and experience. We predict that
Mitchell will develop into an All-District tackle by next season.

MIKE CARRASCO:
Mike played his last year on the team thi t season. He was t outstanding
blocker on the squad for t e year ' is loss will be felt gre y next season.
Carrasco was also place the -City Eleven.
OCTAVIO BORUNDA: l
What Octo lacked in size and weight, he
made up in speed and fight. Borunda was a
stand-out in the Tucson and Austin games. l-le
is another one of our graduating backs.
JOE CHAVEZ:
This was Joe's first year on the squadg how-
ever, he developed so rapidly that by the San
Angelo game, he demonstrated that by the
coming season he will readily become All-
District material.
GEORGE MIRAMONTES:
Although George was not a regular, he probably played as much as any
other tackle on the squad. Nliramontes could always be depended upon to
fulfill his assignments regardless of the size or speed of the opponents.
E741
JOHNNY SHAW:
Johnny played the position of tackle for two years. l-le completed his eligibility
the past season when he proved himself to be the outstanding player for that position
in the District. The coaches will have a hard assignment in finding someone to take
his place.

K
RALPH CASTILLO:
Developing rapidly as the season went by, Ralph was one of the outstanding ends
on the squad. Being a good pass receiver as well as an excellent defense man, he
could always be depended upon to give the opponents more than his share of trouble.
His loss will be felt greatly next season.

SAMMY DWYER: lCaptainl
Easily the mainstay of the Tiger five, Sammy captained the
team from guard position. A consistent point getter, as well as
was rewarded for his splendid work by being unanimously chosen
for All-State honors as guard and captain.
ABIE KAHN:
An excellent dribbler and passer, Kahn was certainly an
important cog in the Tigers' offense. He played one of the
regular guard positions and was one of the best defensive men
on the squad. Abies play in the State Tournament was bril-

liantly outstanding.
RALPH CASTILLO:
Ralph was easily the most improved player on the squad. During the early
part of the season, he was slow and awlcwardg but by hard work and untiring
patience Castillo mastered every phase of the game so well that he was un-
animously chosen All-State Center at the State Tournament. Ralph has com-
pleted his eligibility.
TONY VEGA:
Tony played one of the regular forwards. l-le was an excellent floor man
and led in scoring in the City Series. Vega was chosen by every local
newspaper in their All-City selections. Great things will be expected of him
next year.
BILL mics: NA
Bill started the season at one of the regular
guard positions. l-le was shifted to forward, how-
ever, where his deadly shooting would improve the
Tiger offense. Rike was undoubtedly the most
consistent scorer on the team. Bill Rike is an-
other one of our graduating regulars.

BOB FOLK:
Possessing a tricky one-handed shot, Bob could always be depended upon to
annex points for El Paso High School. Bob starred in the City Tournament,
especially in the Bowie games. He has completed his eligibility.
WILLARD WOOLVERTON:
"Hammer" played one of the alternate forward positions. He specialized in
all kinds of trick shots and passes, being able to manipulate the ball with uncanny
accuracy. WilIard's playing during the City Series was of a high standard.
DAVID CARRASCO:
David alternated at both of the guard positions.
He was an excellent defensive man, a good drib-
bler, and could always get his share of the points.
His play in the Regional Meet assured everyone
that he will be an outstanding player next year.
GEORGE MIRAMONTES:
George was a hard driver from the start
and could be depended upon to be plugging
when the final whistle blew. Although he was
not a regular, he probably scored more points
than some of the first five. George was a
Senior this past season.

BASKETBALL SUCCESSFUL
Coacll Pennington's battling Tigers' thrilling victory was due to splendid team work
and excellent coaching. 4
Losing only four out of twenty-four games, -the El Paso High School Tigers completed
the most successful season in the last ten years.
Although considered very weak at the start ot the season, the Tigers won the City,
District, and Regional Championships. They were finally nosed out by Cushing in the State
Championship game, 33-29.
This is an excellent example of what good team-work, splendid coaching, and a "never-
say-die" spirit will do. Therefore, take heed, you I937 "Tigers," and rnay you show the same
spirit and team-work next season.

Although defeated by Austin in the City and District Meets, the El Paso High School
"Tigers" were well coached, thanks to Tradk Coach I-larry Bivins, and showed a splendid spirit.
Inspired by their leader and captain, Reading Black, the El Paso "thinly-clads" were nosed out
only because of the lack of reserve material. l-lovvever, we certainly look forward to a successful
season in I937.

a Many sports and games were played by the gym girls that were of interest to all. The
Senior team was victorious in volley ball and planned to be so in all other sports also.
Pins, emblems, felt "E's," and sweaters were awarded to those girls winning honors and
acquiring a certain number of points, at a banquet held at the Cortez, which is an annual
event.
One of the main events in the department this year was the Annual Demonstration, which
was featured on December 14, in the Austin Gymnasium, for our gym was not large enough to
accommodate all the spectators. The demonstration is a combination of class work, tap danc-
ing, tumbling, and folk dances. '
The Girls' R. 0. T. C., which is a division of the gymnasium as well as R. 0. T. C. unit,
also took part in the program.

SCHOLARSHIP CLUB
, ,W
President .......................,.. Albert Schwartz
Vice-President ..... ..... B etty Edwards
Secretary-Treasurer ................... David Tappan
The Scholarship Club is composed of students making an average of at least and
preferably "A," in all studies, Their deportment grades must not fall below an "A" at any time.
To be eligible a student must make the necessary average for a whole term and then at the be-
ginning of the next term automatically becomes a member, Only a high senior may enter at the
close of the first six weeks.
The club meets on every other Wednesday and the meetings are varied and entertaining,
A banquet is always held at the end of each current school year, Perhaps the greatest privilege
offered to members of the Scholarship Club is exemption from all final examinations,
Members are given gold scholarship pins to wear throughout the term and if he remains a
member of the club and graduates with it, the pin becomes his own possession.
Miss Stamps, the sponsor, has done much to promote a feeling of good will and co-opera-
tion in the club and the students themselves, have done much to correct the false idea that it is
a club for "book-worms" only.

Our chapter, the first chapter of the National l-lonor Society to be founded in El Paso, was
begun in i927 by Mr. Lynn B, Davis. lts purpose is not solely to develop scholarship, although it
gives recognition to that, but to stimulate and cultivate other qualities in students which make for
a finer life-namely, character, service and leadership,
As the name implies, this society is national in scope and its members are entitled to wear
the national pin which gives high school students everywhere the same recognition that the key of
the Phi Beta Kappa gives to college students.
Members are selected by the faculty from a list of seniors and high juniors. This year the
society departed from the customary initiation, and honored the new members with 3 luncheon at
the l-lilton l-lotel - table appointments featuring the club colors, purple and gold.
Election into this society is considered the highest honor which the faculty can bestow
upon studentsean honor, however, which the students themselves must earn.

About three years ago a Photography Club was organized under the leadership ot Mr J B
Jones, the head ot the Science Department. The interest in this club has grown until it is now the
largest club in the school,
Boys and girls have learned to take, develop and print their own pictures. This year all
the pictures tor the Spur were taken by the Photography Club.
The growth ot this club has made it necessary to have a larger work room so new shades
were put in the physics laboratory and the work ot the club has been very successful

The Omicron Omicron Epsilon Club was organized this school year and is establishing
itself more and more each day, The organization is affiliated with the state home economics
association and the American Home Economics Association which gives each member the right
to wear the club pin and the club the right to send representatives to the meeting of the state
association. The club colors are gold and purple, Aims of the organization are mainly: to
develop interest in home economics, to develop personality, leadership, self-reliance, initiative,
social poise and professional interest, to develop team-work and friendship, to provide social
training and to stimulate interest in hobbies and in the wise use of leisure.
The club has been very active and has accomplished a great deal, The initiation cere-
mony, which was held at night and following a social hour, was the first activity the members
participated in A Thanksgiving box was the club's offering to a needy family. The members
enjoyed the merry Christmas party because they had made scrap books, dressed dolls and var-
ious other things for the orphans. On March tvventy-seventh, the club sponsored a "Cotton
Cord" dance in the El Paso High School gym, A tea for the mothers of club members was
given Friday, May eighth, The main project of the second term has been to enlarge the Health
Department, A portion of the proceeds of the dance and of an assembly was given to the
department.

An essential to every pupil's school life is a good library with a competent supervisor and
helpers. Certainly our library, with Mrs. Mamie Lyles and her staff, aids El Paso l'ligh students
in their work, Throughout the day and after school hours we may find boys and girls working
away at some assignment, or perhaps reading for pleasure.
Over 9,000 books of all types furnish ample reference and diversion material. A student
in English, after taking library lessons, is not at a loss to find what is needed, but library aids
are always on hand, The staff of l7 girls have among their duties the issuing, receiving and
shelving of books, the care of scholastic and other magazines, and helping in every way. Mrs,
Lyles made the statement that without the student helpers, it would have been impossible to
run the library without a trained paid assistant,
This year the library was moved to new quarters, combining with the Junior and Senior
study hall, The upper classmen have benefited greatly through its use. Plans have already been
formulated for next year, and an even better system has been worked out. '

Sgf. Sexton
Major James P. Moore
Lt. Herman
The R. O. T. C. in the El Paso High School had its most successful year in the history of
the school in the year i935-l936. ,
For the fourth consecutive time our R. O. T. C. was put on the honoriroll of the Eighth
Corps area. This honor rating is very hard to attain but through the efforts of splendid com-
mandant of cadets, James P. Moore, we were successful in getting this rating.
The R. O. T. C. Competitive Drill, held annually, was a decisive victory for the First
Battalion of El Paso High School over the Second Battalion of Austin High. Our Battalion
won twelve out of fourteen possible first places. 1 ,
The Battalion commanded by Cadet Major Howard Newton won the Battalion trophy.
Company B, commanded by Cadet Captain Jimmy Ferguson, won the company drill. Company
C, commanded by Cadet Captain Bob Folk, won the freshman Company drill. Second platoon
Company C, commanded by Cadet 2nd Lt. Dick Fletcher, won the Freshman platoon drill. The
Fifth Battalion, commanded by Cadette Captain Liddie Hardie, won the Girls' Battalion drill.
Company R, commanded by Cadette Captain Liddie Hardie, won the Girls' Company
drill, First platoon of Company R, commanded by Cadette 2nd Lt. Louise Hayward, won the
girls' platoon drill.
Cadet Master Sergeant Bob Hoover won the Individual Competitive drill for the second
consecutive year. This is the first time in the history of the R. O. T. C. in El Paso that this was
ever done. Cadet private Frank Brown won the Freshman individual Competition. Cadette
Sergeant Charlotte Cole won the girls individual competition.
Cadet Major Howard Newton won first place in the Don Thompson trophy for marks-
manship. Cadet Captain Jeff Parham won second place in the Don Thompson trophy for marks-
manship. .
Cadet Major Howard Newton was chosen the most outstanding cadet in the corps and
was awarded a gold medal.
Our victory is largely due to the excellent leadership of our Cadet Officers and the de-
termination of our cadets and the untiring efforts of Second Lt. Thomas K. Herman.

THE SPUR
The Story of the Spur ist not an unusual one. The
hardest and most intense work was done after the so-
called dead line, and what for a time seemed a hopeless
task is now accomplished. There are many friends who
helped make this book a reality and to whom the editor
extends her everlasting gratitude. '
The work of the staff, both editorial andbbusiness,
was most enthusiastic and faithful. Nights as well as
days of work have been tirelessly spent preparing this
annual. To all my staff whoworked after hours 'putting
the Spur before all else, l extend my unlimited thanks.

The members of the Student Council of El Paso
High School are elected by popular vote by mem-
bers of their class division, The Council is an
organization of honor and government in the
school. It has furthered democracy by establish-
ing a student court, with the council members
sitting as judges. The council has in its power
the right to pass judgment on the cases coming
before it. With the equalness of the student on
trial and students as judges, it is believed that
greater steps will be accomplished in the under-
standing of the arising cases.

the fellow students and the guiding influence of
