A.E. T H a M A 5Graduates of 1939:
Today you are happy—and justly so—because of your scholastic achievements which qualify you for graduation.
I congratulate you.
I should like to leave with you this final word. You have not in any sense completed your education. Nor does your diploma indicate that you are fully equipped for life’s opportunities and demands.
May your graduation be but a fresh beginning toward those objectives which insure physical, mental, social, and spiritual health and well-being.
Superintendent.Dear Seniors of 1939:
All too soon you will be glancing back through the pages ot tms, your record of high school activities. As you turn these pages you will find many reminders of happy living and pleasant associations.
“If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counsellor, caution your elder brother, and your guardian genius.”
That your mind may be ever in search of knowledge, your body completely surrendered to faithful service, and your heart true to God is my most sincere wish for each of you.

The Ennis High School Band is comparatively a young organization, but one which has grown on a path of activity and work. In the fall of 1934 Mr. J. D. King started work in the schools with about twelve boys and girls who were endowed with a desire to play in an Ennis High School Band. Mr. King did splendid work with this group and in three years it had grown to about 65 members and had achieved many honors, in the summer of 1937 Thomas B. Granger came to Ennis as director of this group. The band continues to grow each new year with more members and a finer playing ensemble. The wearers of the maroon and white have a line past and are looking forward to a glorious future. If success continues in the future, it will be largely due to the fine cooperation of the people who enjoy feeling that it is "our" band and a fine organization.OFFICERS

The drill team of the Ennis High School was organized four years ago. It started with only thirty-two members under the direction of Miss Maxson, who worked faithfully with this group and who deserves great credit for its success.
The aims of this organization is to further any school activity it can assist in, and to provide a means of showing school loyalty. During football season this organization adds much to the interest and pep of a game by performing in colorful and spectacular formations and in contributing organized yells. To be a member of the drill team a passing grade is required.Buster Dixon, Captain j. d. King, Sponsor
The school Safety Patrol is an innovation to the Ennis Public Schools. The primary purpose of the Patrol is to create a constant attitude of safety consciousness among the students as they leave and approach school. It has also been found that the Patrol serves to inspire its members to higher moral and scholastic attainment.
The Ennis Patrol was organized with the help of the State Highway Patrol. The Ennis Lions Club furnished the money to equip the organization. The attitude of the members themselves and the cooperation given by the student body indicate that this worthwhile organization has accomplished much good for the students of Ennis High.OFFICERS

The Lions opened the ’38 season with a game with Corsirana. This was one of the hardest ami closest games of the year. The first score was made by the opponents when they recovered the hall behind Ennis’ goal. Both teams battled inside Ennis’ twenty yard line! Finally the Tigers carried it over, making the score with an extra | oint thirteen to nothing. The third score for the Corsicana team was a pass completed over the goal line. The Lions at last “open tip" and threaten to score, but fail. A safely completed the scoring in the game. Corsicana had three | enaltics, while Ennis had none. Ennis fumbled five times and the opj onenis fumbled once. The stars of the game were Dixon and Muirhcad in the back field and Houdek in the line, playing outstanding defensive guard. For the opponents the star was Gonzales.
ENNIS 18-WILLS POINT 6
Ennis opened their home season with an impressive fourth quarter victory over the Wills Point Tigers. The first three quarters were a close affair with neither team showing too much advantage. In the fourth quarter all four touchdowns were made. Ennis made her last twelve points in the final two minutes of play when passes from Leathern to Dixon accounted for gains of sixty-five and twenty-two yards and scores.
The first three quarters produced a great deal of defensive play by both lines. Hampel and Tolar, with McGee, Pierce, Houdek, Shaw, and Tackett, played outstanding ball. Cervantes and Shebesta continued to be two of the best ends of the field. Dixon. Collier, and Leathern carried the ball very well behind the signal calling of Warren, Haynes, and Poole.ENNIS 19—H ILLS BORO 7
The Hillsboro-Ennis game opened with Hillsboro choosing the kick-off. No score was made in this quarter, but Dixon made a run for the first score in the first play of the second quarter and the Lions scored the extra point. They played back and forth on the field and Dixon ran over for the second score of the game. They failed to complete the kick for the extra point on this score. The second half opened with Hillsboro gradually working down Ennis half and finally they go over and make the score 13-7 with the extra point. In the last quarter, after much passing, Muirhead made the final touchdown, making the score 19-7 in favor of the Lions.
Outstanding players of the game were Dixon, Lcatham, Collier, and Cervantes.
ENNIS 22-1. O. O. F. 6 (FORFEITED)
The Lions tore into our traditional foes, the I. O. O. F. Lynx, with a vengeance that was to lx supplanted only with a smashing victory. And this is exactly what they did, the Lions piled up sixteen first downs to the Lynx four, and held I. (). O. F. to fifty-two yards gained from scrimmage while they picked up two hundred and thirty-seven yards from scrimmage. However, after the game the Ennis officials found our crack guard, N. L. Hampel, was a few days over the age limit and we forfeited the game to the Lynx. Although forfeiting the game caused us to lose our district, we still had the consolation of whipping the Lynx.
It is impossible for us to try to name the outstanding players, as every man played as though he were a champion. Dixon, Collier, Leathern, Muirhead, Pole, and Haynes were the standouts on the offense. Cervantes, Shebesta. Tackett, Shaw, Harnpel, Tolar, and McGee all did excellent work in the line.
ENNIS 25—STATE HOME 26
Stale Home won the loss and chose to receive. Although Ennis gained steadily and outplayed their opponents, no score was made during the first quarter. The ball was taken to their one-half yard line but failed to go over. In the second quarter Dixon made the first touchdown, but no extra point was made. State Home completed a pass and tied the score 6-6. ('.oilier went over for the second score and the extra point was good. The half ended after Dixon made a third touchdown. Score 19-6. In the third quarter no score was made. Both sides lost the ball because of much fumbling. The fourth quarter opened with a fourth touchdown—25-6 in favor of Ennis. A completed pass brought a score to State Home. After many substitutions State Home's luck seemed to change and the Lions lost the game by a 25-26 score.
Ennis met a new opponent in Commerce and gave them a tough game. The Lions, defending the south goal, kicked off. A pass completed to Collier brought the first score, 7-0. A reverse to Shebesta brought a second touchdown and extra point. As the quarter closed Ennis drew a 25-yard | enalty. Collier took the ball over for the third touchdown. Commerce completed two passes for a touchdown making the score 14 7 in favor of Ennis as the half ended. Another touchdown was made by Commerce when the ball was gained through a fumble. No goal was kicked, so the score stood 14-13 in favor of Ennis. A completed pass to Collier was good for another touchdown but no extra point was made.
ENNIS 20-COMMERCE 13ENNIS 16—KAUFMAN 0
Throughout this game the Kaufman boys showed great resistance. Early in the game the Lions pushed the Kaufman team so deep in their own territory that when they tried to punt, they stepped behind the end-zone and netted Ennis two points. The first score came late in the first quarter when Shebesta took a pass and galloped for a touchdown. The game continued for two quarters without a score until Muirhcad worked into the clear in the last quarter and Dixon dropped a pass into his hands and he ran for the next and last touchdown. The game lasted about five minutes more. As usual. Dixon and Collier were the best backs on the field, while Shebesta and Tolar were good in the line. Kaufman’s defense was strong enough, but their offense was somewhat weak.
ENNIS 20-GROESBECK 13
Much speed and endurance was shown on bot’t teams in this game. On the third play Pittman ran for a touchdown for Groesbeck. Then the Lions opened up and Dixon scored after he had run to the fourteen on the previous play. Ennis made the next store when Collier went over from the three-yard line. Cervantes took a pass in the -1th quarter and raced 15 yards for a touchdown. That was all the scoring Ennis did. but later in the quarter the Goats completed a long pass for their second score. This ended the game as far as scoring was concerned. The outstanding player was Collier, who made many nice gains through the Groesbeck line. Dixon was here and there and played well. Muirhead was the speed merchant who was hard to catch and few plays came around Shebesta. For Groesbeck alldistrict quarterback Pittman was hard to see and much harder to catch. Grimes also was one of the best backs Ennis faced all year.ENNIS 39—TEAGUE 7
Teague was one of the weakest teams the Lions met last year. In the first quarter Leathern drove over from the four-yard line for the first score. The next two touchdowns went to the credit of Collier, the best driving fullback in the conference. The first time he went over from the five- and next from the fourteen-yard line. The next counter was made by McGee, who intercepted a pass on the 50 and ran the remainder of the held. “Scrappy" Shebesta recovered a fumble over their goal in the 3rd quarter and scored six points. The Lions did not score anymore and gave the Teague boys a chance. They completed a pass and ran for their only score. Ennis piled up 14 first downs to their four. Dixon and Collier were outstanding in the backfield. while Shebesta, Tolar and McGee did fine work on the line.

ENNIS 66-FERRISO
The Lions finished the schedule of their conference games after a great year of football by defeating Ferris to the tune of 66-0. Collier made the first score through the line. Dooney Pierce intercepted a pass for the second, and Muirhead went over for the third. Dixon intercepted a pass for the fourth, Cervantes took a pass and galloped across the double stri| e for the next counter, and McC.ord intercepted a pass and followed his interference over, next was a 50-yard run by Muirhead to make another score. “Scrappy" Shebesta took his turn and completed a touchdown pass for the final score. Ennis counted 14 first downs to the Yellow jackets seven. Kerris fumbled 7 times. Ennis intercepted four of Ferris passes and completed four out of twelve tries. Ennis was penalized 9 times for 105 yards. This was the last conference game of the season and the Lions certainly earned their victory. Dixon. Collier, Shebesta, and Tolar were very outstanding in the game.ENNIS 20-WILMER HUTCHINS 12
This was one of the fastest, hardest fought games the Lions experienced in '38. Although the boys from Wilmer-Hulchins wanted the game and worked hard to get it. they lost by the score of 20-12. In the first hall the game leaned in their favor. They led 6-0. The Lions didn’t open up until the third quarter when Dixon ran to their 10 from their 43. There ('oilier made one of his noted plunges for the good old store. Next it was their turn and they scored late in the third quarter on a line plunge. I hen they were through. Early in the last quarter a completed pass to Shebcsta s| elled score, and again they stored when Muirhcad ran over from the 5. The Lions piled up 12 first downs and so did Wilmer-Hulchins. Ennis completed 2 out of 2 passes and Wilincr-Hutchins completed 3 out of 3. Dixon, ('.oilier and Muirhead showed up in the backfield and Tolar, Shebcsta and McGee on the line.

Nancy: Now, just a minute. I'm going to tell a little bit about MILLER'S ROSE GARDEN. The first thing you know we are going to have a wonderful tennis court and a croquet court too.
Mary Jane: And don’t forget the horse shoe games!

5th class“Won’l you take this seat?” asked Mr. Blair, of a member of the faculty, while on the special to Groesbeck.
"No, thank you; I have been roller skating and don't care about sitting down anymore just now,” Miss Robertson replied.
Lyndal Jones (the Sot) walked into a drugstore one day and said, "Do you have any denatured hair tonic?”
"No," said the druggist. “However, I have hair tonic and you look like a man of good judgment who can read between the lines of a label.”
Lyndal, "I can do just that. Give me two quarts, please."
Pauline Duke: Is your boy friend one of those
one arm drivers?
Blanche Wynell: I should say not. He takes a
taxi and uses both arms.
Miss Barkeley: Pupils, what could be sadder than a man without a country?
Quecna Jo Estes: A country without a man.
“Do you know." said Bob Banner, "I began life as a barefoot boy." (Fancy that)
"Well,” said Hubert Rogers, "I wasn't born in box cars myself."
Margaret Sue Curtis: Now, really, don’t you
think girls have cleaner minds than men?
Harry Clopton Dillingham Esq.: Yeah, I guess so. but they ought to, look how often they change them.
Dorothy Gene Lyons: "I’ve found a man who can remove freckles, moles, double chins or any beauty defect.
Betty Womack: A real beauty specialist, eh?
Dot: Oh, no—a photographer.
Sue Bond: Gee, why do you sing?
Mary Jane Scott: To keep the wolf away.
Sue: Gee, you could keep a pack away with a
voice like that.
Twenty years from now:
Robert Lamb as a parson: Maury, your main
enemy is drink.
Maury Wayne McKaskell: Yeah, and you’re the guy that told me to love my enemies. •
"But," protested Joe White, when St. Peter handed him a gold trumpet. "I can’t play this instrument. I never practiced before.”
"Of course,” laughed St. Peter, "that’s why you’re here.”THE JOB'S DONE
