I ii 54 fs, RESUME OF SEASON Fbotball was introduced to the Elysian Fields High School for the first time September 1949. The season was well underway before we received any equipment. We began the season with only one player with previous experience in the person of Fred Lawerence Porter. Our Main Objectives of The Season Were: l. Te develope fundamental techniques of football. 2. To learn and practice habits of good sportsmanship. 3. To produce a challenging team. Captain Fred Lawerence Porter spearheaded the team until fate struck him in our first game with Carver High at Khrnack, Texas. He suffered a broken leg. Then, Freddie Wollen took over the helm as captain with Marion Holloway as co-captain. We have brighter prospects for a better team next season, for there will be several capable players on hand with a years experience. Henry F. SBDOSPS5 Coach I.. K M. it -' T "6Wwfff, ,.,.

Elysian Fieldsn EN The Coronation 'Queen Beulah of the House of Perk1nsnCMiss Elysian Fields, was crowned January 27, l95O amid pomp and ceremony the like which has not been seen before on our campus. The beautlful flowers, and the capable sponsors in the persons of Mrs. Fluellen, Mrs. Hamilton, and Misa Smith added splendor to the elaborate occasion. In the parade was Queen Beulah Perkins with her escort her attendants and their escorts. This celebrated party led the parade in a 50 Mercury which was driven by Mr. Marshall. Fbllowing this Noble Party came another 50 Mercury with Miss Elysian Fields' sponsor in the person of Mrs. Fluellen, the attendants' sponsors in the persons of Mrs. Hamilton and Miss Smith. Miss Hardy was the driver LeBob Jernigan escorted the Queen and Rev. Locket, a student teacher of Bishop College, crowned her. Mlss Zenobia Stewart and Miss Monnle Ruth Wilson CF1rst and Second attendantsj were escorted by Messrs George Marshall and Meritt Leffall respectively. After the presentation of the crown to WM1ss Elysian Fields,n by Rev. Locket , the comely Miss Bernice Hardy gave the Queen an exquisite boquet of flowers arrayed in our school colors fthe cherished blue and whitey. We hope that the Coronation of next year will equal this one for it will be hard to surpass.

'55 R Qsgig, HISTORY QF THE ELYSIAN FIELDS SCHOOL Akter the period of Reconstruction the Elysian Fields oom unity saw the needs of education. Some where between 1870-75 a school was established at Elysian Fields. The school was located about 112 mile East of its present location, where the Elysian Fields Baptist Church now stands. The first teacher was Mr. Durant who taught from 1871-78, Mr. Jordon William was teacher from 1890-93. From 1895-1910 the following persons served as Prin- cipals, Mr. V. Cox, Mr. Isam Spears, Mr. Jim Brown, Mr. C. A. Dudley, Mr. W. J. Brown and Mr. Oakey. In 1910 Mr. Jesse D. Spears, Sr. was elected and taught one year at the first location and plans'were made to move the school near the center of the com unity, there- fore the present site was chosen. A two room building was erected and Mr. Jesse D. Spears served as the Principal from 1911-26. His resigna- tion was due to ill health, which resulted in death in 1935. Since 1926 the following persons have served as Prin- cipals, Mr. P. E. Moon, Mrs. Alberta James, Miss Alla M. Jackson, Mr. Kirkwood, Mr. Walter Brooks, Mrs. A. M. Rogers Mr. J. D. Sanford, Mr. Billie E. Dade, and Mr. Chatman, It was under the administration of Miss Alla M. Jackson that the present Sr. High school building was erected. Prof. D. H. Fluellen a graduate of Texas College, Tyle Texas, came to Elysian Fields July 5, 1948 and assumed the duties as principal of the Elysian Fields School. The fol- lowing schools were consolidated: Mt. Pleasant, Oak Hill, Pine Hill, and Oak Grove. The Principals were Mrs. A. B. Hamilton, Mrs. Jeffrey Spears, Mrs. Estelle Osborne,and Mrs Alma Moore-Montogue, respectively. A contract was entered with the B 3 D House Moving Contractors and work began immediately. More land was pur- chased from Mr. R. B. Anderson and some given by the J..B. Furrh Estate. The new school year began September 6, 1948 with 500 scholastics and 15 teachers. The teaching personnel did a marvelous Job in fulfill- ing the requirements of accreditation. When the school was visited by the State Deputy R. A. 'Pat' Shaw, he recom end- ed Elysians Fields High School to the accrediting Commi tt66 of the State Department of Education. The approval of the accrediting com ittee gave Elysians Fields High School its rating September l, 1948. Elysian Fields School owes a debt of gratitude to the entire consolidated community and to other cooperating agencies for whatever progress that has been made. As the 'Tiger' goes to press the Administration of Elysian Fields High School realizes that education is a continuous process,'RNt for school, but for Life'. 9 1' '4?"m wh ,ix 53' gf? 5' he I f :ph W . fr N- z1,,vg.5 .V ewf -WWE: 14: Taking into consideration the motive for the production of this issue of the Tiger, we think in terms of the importance of preserving records and not only records but it will find 1t's place in the preservation of precious mem- ories for the present students and those to fol- low. It might serve as that inspiration that someone lacks to drive him to success.

The Staff B Most of the American leadership is being drawn from persons educated in rural school. The nation has always drawn and will continue to draw much of its bloodstream from the products of rural schools. Therefore, many of the future leaders and citizens of our nation will be taught in rural schools. Thanks, to the staff of the Tiger for letting us know the kind of program the Elysian Fields District is attempting to provide. ,zf,g.L..fZf:.UQ O.
