A Wanda Terry Peggy Coates Editor Business Manager ’PuMia ed Senior 'out 'Z oeatiotiaC St Dear Fellow Jackets, Throughout the first half of this 20th Century, Jordan has evolved to its present place of progressive educational enterprises. During the first five years of the century it was but a dream, which crystallized partly from the generous and alert actions of Mr. G. Gunby Jordan. From 1906, when Secondary Industrial (first name of school) was opened, until 1912, Industrial High (second name) proved itself a vital part of the educational program in Columbus. For the next thirty years it grew in every way, so that in 1937 the school plant had to be moved to its present loca- tion. Then it became known as Jordan Vocational High Under the expert guidance of the Columbus Board of Education, the institution pioneered and succeeded in voca- tional education. It is with some nostalgia, therefore, that on January first of this year—1950—we said farewell to the Columbus City System. It is with justifiable pride, however, that we have now become a vital part of a larger educational program—the Muscogee County School District. May you, all alumni, and all future generations of Red Jackets, join us, the Red Jacket Staff of the Mid-Century year, in an optimistic prediction that Jordan's name and fame will be even greater in 2000 A.D.

The School Classes Athletics Activities Ads THEME In December 1906, when Secondary In- dustrial was opened, only twenty-nine pupils enrolled. Before June 1907, there were almost one hundred. Like the great Chattahoochee River that rolls steadily onward through the passing years, vocational education has been ever coursing its way in Columbus with apparent momentum. J. V. H. S. now has more than a thousand pupils; and according to predictions, the present building cannot accommodate an increased number of pupils next year and in the future.

TRIBUTE TO BOARD OF EDUCATION As early as 1904, members of the Co- lumbus Board of Education have worked for our school. In that year, Mr. G. Gunby Jordan, President of the Board, and several colleagues began plans for a Secondary Industrial School. In 1937, as a result of wise planning of the Board, during the presidency of Mr. R. M. Arnold, a new school was erected. As a result of the merging of the city and county schools on January 1, 1950, a new Board of Education composed of fifteen members became officially ac- tive. These men and women are work- ing earnestly to make the schools in Columbus and Muscogee County the best in the state. They are now doing every- thing in their power to promote the ex- pansion that enrollments and progressive living demand. MR. WILLIAM HENRY SHAW Superintendent of Education The merging of the Columbus Public Schools and the Muscogee County Schools on January 1, 1950, into one great system, known as the Muscogee School Dis- trict, has been due largely to the capable leadership and the energetic and tireless work of our superin- tendent, Mr. W. H Shaw. Since coming to Columbus in 1945, he has worked continually for greater expan- sion and commensurate equality. MEMBERS •Front Row: Mr. W. C. Woodall, Mr. J. Q. Davidson, Mr. Maurice D.

BRADFORD Assistant Superintendent Jordan students will always feel indebted to Mr. Bradford, who served as principal for twenty- five years before leaving the school in 1945 to become assistant-superintendent of the Columbus Public Schools. Since the merging of the city and county school systems, he has also become super- visor of instruction. MR. NATHAN R. PATTERSON Assistant Superintendent Formerly superintendent of the Muscogee County Schools, Mr. Nathan Patterson now serves efficiently as supervisor of special services of the Muscogee County School District. MR. R. H. TALIAFERRO Principal As our principal, Mr. Taliaferro devotes many hours administering to the needs of both students and faculty. He listens patiently and gives encouragement whenever difficult problems arise. During the five years that he has been at Jordan, he has worked unceasingly to raise the moral and academic standards of the school. Miss Cox works diligently to see that students attend school She also helps with schedules and gives students wise counsel whenever they need or seek advice. MR. R. A. POWELL Assistant Principal MR. W. W. CROUCH Assistant Principal Whatever the plea, our quiet but efficient Mr. Crouch, makes it possible for students to make all necessary inter-class adjustments. Mr. Crouch is also business manager of athletics. As coordinator of the Off-Campus Center of the University of Georgia and the high school, Mr. Powell has ably assisted both veterans taking high school subjects and college students to adjust themselves to academic work. MRS. JULIA M. TAYLOR Acting Dean of Girls No matter whether serving as acting dean in the ab- sence of Miss Cox or as a teacher in the classroom, Mrs. Taylor is ever ready to lend a sympathetic ear and to give unselfishly of her time and talents to assist students with their classwork or with their personal problems.

The Service Club, organized in 1938, is the student council of the school. It consists of an elected representative from each home room and each student club in the school. In case the representative is absent, an alternate is appointed. Its purpose is to promote the best interest of school life through service to the school, faculty, and student body.

V. H. S. leaders gather informally to make plans for social as well as scholastic activities. At old Industrial, there was very little leisure in the long-day schedule for such pleasant participation. CONFERENCE WITH FACULTY When there are difficult problems to solve, Jordan leaders do not hesitate to ask counsel of faculty members whose guid- ance they value. Together the representa- tives work out satisfactory procedures. STUDENT FRANCHISE Votes from all students determine every policy, both in and out of classes. Years ago, at Secondary Industrial, pupil franchise in matters of curriculum was seldom prac- ticed. With full student franchise has come democratic and progressive education at Jordan. J.hsL S niiA. THE HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS We, the members of the present senior class, entered Jordan in 1946— the year after Hiroshima— fresh from Junior High. The first day we were sent to the auditorium where Mr. David, the principal, and Miss Cox, the dean of girls, divided the class into small sections. On coming to this beau- tiful school, each of us thought (with apologies to Wordsworth) My heart leaps up when I behold The school of my dreams. So was it when my life began; So is it now I am there; So be it when I shall get my Jordan High diploma, Or let me die! Since we have been at Jordan, some of us have achieved various distinc- tions in scholastic standing, in sports, and in R. 0. T. C. And though times may have been hard, we have made it our goal to achieve worthily. The years we have spent at Jordan have been filled with shocks as unforgettable as the explosion on Nagasaki. Mr. David's death was a great blow. One attack, however, missed us ; namely, the extension of senior high school years from eleven to twelve. We are the last of the lucky eleven. As we leave our Alma Mater, we look over the scores of happy days that will live in our hearts forever. We wish for the pupils who follow us at Jordan, schooldays as happy as those spent by our seniors—the Mid- Century graduating class.

HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS We, the Junior Class of 1950, look back upon our first years at Jordan as the starting point into the development of adulthood. When we came to Jordan in the fall of 1947, it was hard for us to become accustomed to our new school life. Gradually, however, we began to equip ourselves for the other three years ahead of us. Our sophomore year came. We were glad of this, for we became a larger part of Jordan, and we began participating in the many activities which the school offered us. Then came our junior year. By this time many of our number were outstanding in sports, dramatics, and music; almost all the offcers of the Tri-Hi-Y Clubs were from our class. One of our girls was elected to represent Jordan in the Peanut Bowl Queen Contest; another was chosen to represent our school as Miss Heddy Lamarr. We have seen improvements and changes since our freshman year. New school equipment has been added, new curtains have been placed in the auditorium, and the inside of the school has been painted. The city and county schools have merged to form the Muscogee School District. Some of the teachers we loved have gone, but others have arrived to take their places. Among these is Miss Teresa Murray, an exchange teacher from England, who came this year to take Miss Evelyn Smith's place at Jordan while Miss Smith is in England. Next year our life at Jordan will come to an end. It will be a sad occa- sion for us. We realize that a great unknown adventure lies before us, and we hope that we all shall be prepared to take our place in the world as others before us have been. Douglas Watson filoAA.

JIuL SopPwmiftSL HISTORY OF THE SOPHOMORE CLASS Though we, the Sophomore Class of 1950, have had only a taste of our life at Jordan, we have not been disappointed. Through our years together at the Junior High School we had looked forward to the time when we would continue our schools days in the institution which has meant much to our mothers and fathers, our brothers and sisters. Our coming over to Jordan was more than an incident; it was the fulfillment of an ambition. Again we say that our school has not been a disappointment to us; and we only hope that we in turn have not proved to be a disappointment. Though we can make no claims to outstanding virtues, we are at least an average class. In some instances, we have been fortunate enough to claim those who have distinguished themselves in some special line of endeavor. Numbers of us have excelled in athletics. Many of us are enthusiastic mem- bers of our band and the Columbus Symphony Orchestra. We have con- tributed some talent to the dramatic organiations of the school, and some of us—at least a few—have taken scholarship seriously. Our future is in the making, and we can only hope that the next two years will bring the realization of some of our dreams!

HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS In September, 1949, we, four hundred and thirty freshmen, came to Jordan—the dear old Jordan of which we had heard our brothers and sisters sing praises. We had a feeling that the faculty felt that a swarm of locusts had descended upon them and wondered what they were going to do with us. Our first weeks were a little difficult; it wasn't long, however, before we caught the true spirit of Jordan High and began to enjoy its many activities, opportunities, and privileges. As our freshman year draws to a close, we sincerely thank our teachers for so generously helping us on our way with their constant inspiration and encouragement.

There were seasons at old Industrial when we did not have enough players to compose a football team. At one time we had a combined team with Columbus High School. But to- day at Jordan, we have one of the best equipped and one of the hardest playing teams in the state. THE COACHES Left to Right: Herschel Jones, Sumpter Blackmon, H. L. Slayden. Coach Jones is the head baseball coach and the assistant basketball coach. Coach Blackmon coaches the track team, the football back- field, and the 8 basketball team.

Third Row: Calvin Kelly, Gene Williams, Earl Flournoy, Fred McCollum, Henry Highnote, Bobby Glissen, James Buckner, Gor- don McLaughlin, Bobby Chambless, Billy Meadows, Jerry Tillman, Charles Webster. BOBBY GLISSON (1) JIMMY BAGGETT (4) Last year Bobby played end, but he was changed to cen- ter this year. He held this position down like a vet- eran and was always a good blocker and a fine defensive man. He played his best game against Roosevelt. He will be back next season. JIMMY BUCKNER (2) This was Jimmy's first year at Jordan, as he transferred from Central where he played on the B team. He was an outstanding guard and will be on the team next fall. BOBBY HENDERSON (3) Bobby was held back by a knee injury, but he still turned in many fine games. He was a fine tackier and was outstanding on offense. Again next year, he is ex- pected to be a good ball player and an inspiration to the team. During his career at Jordan, Jimmy was always a good sport and a valuable player. He was hampered greatly this season as a result of an ankle injury. He will cer- tainly be missed next sea- son. Gordon McLaughlin (5) Gordon played in very few games, but he showed a fine spirit and was very popular with his team-mates. He was just a sophomore and will have plenty of time to develop into an excellent player. DOLAN KING (6) Dolan played on the B Team last year and moved up to the varsity this fall. He was a great defensive player and was well liked by the team and the coaches. FOOTBALL ACTION SHOT Jack Floyd sweeps end for a long gain as Junior Jet CHARLES WEBSTER (1) Although Charles saw little action this year, he put his heart into the games and played to win. He is fast and elusive and should be a valuable asset to the team next season. BOBBY CHAMBLESS (2) Bobby made rapid progress this year and was a favorite among the fans. He will be an asset to the team next season. EARL FLOURNOY (3) Playing his first year as a halfback, Earl developed into a good kicker as well as a good runner and passer. Although he was set back as a result of a back injury, he was a deadly blocker in all the games in which he played, and he will long be remembered at Jordan. LEE ROYCE RAILEY (4) Last year Lee Royce played on the B team and was moved up to the varsity this year because of his fine de- fense playing. Lee Royce will be an asset to the team next fall. HENRY HIGHNOTE (5) With his two hundred and sixty-four pounds, Henry is expected to be one of the most dependable tackles next year. During his first year at Jordan he was in the band, but this year he played on the B squad and showed possibilities of developing into a great ball player. BRENNEN McGUIRE (6) Brennen lettered his first year as a guard and center. This year he lettered as a guard. Although he was small, he had the spirit and ambition necessary to make him a good player. He will be missed when another sea- son rolls around. - JORDAN-EUFAULA GAME HARRY BARTLEY (1) This was Harry's second year on the varsity team. Last year he did not play much because of a leg in- jury. This year he was on the All-Region and Bi-City team. He played his best game against Lanier. He will be a valuable player next year. BERT REED (2) Bert played guard last year and was changed to center in spring practice. He was one of the finest blockers in the city and was selected as center on the second string Bi-City team. He played his best game against Central. The team will miss him next fall. FRANK BORDERS (3) Frank was a rugged and hard playing guard. He was very aggressive, and with a little more weight and ex- perience, he should develop into one of the best high school guards in the state. HOMER DAVIS (4) As an excellent tackle, Homer is following in the foot steps of his brother. Bob Davis. Homer won many honors on the gridiron this season and he is ex- pected to develop into one of Jordan's best players dur- ing the next two years. RALPH PRATT (5) As co-captain of the team, Ralph was an excellent lead- er of the squad. On the foot- ball field he was fast and elusive and proved to be one of the best ends in the state. Jordan is sorry to lose him. GENE PENNY WILLIAMS (6) Penny was an excellent passer and a good defensive half-back. He was also a re- liable team man. He will be back next year to help Jerry Tillman quarter-back the team. FOOTBALL ACTION SHOT Jack Floyd leaps high to snag a pass against Centre TOM BLACK (1) Tom was a good blocker and a fine line backer. This was his first year as a quar- terback, and he proved to be one of the most valuable men on the team. He played his best game against Lanier. JACK FLOYD (2) Jack was one of the finest running backs Jordan has had in a long time. For his excellent playing he was placed on the All-Region and Bi-City team. He was a great favorite with the fans and was a runner-up for the most popular player in the city. He will be missed next fall. BILLY CLARKE (3) As a fullback, Billy was one of the best, and he im- proved in every game. He was an excellent runner and was outstanding at down- field blocking. It was Billy who saved many games for Jordan by making the much needed extra points. He will certainly be missed when another season begins. FRANK HICKMAN (4) Frank was one of the best halfbacks in the state. He was always fast and hard to stop and helped make many points. Next year the team will depend upon him to help add another successful season to Jordan's fine record. BOBBY McGEE (5) Bobby came up from the B team to make one of the finest ends on the squad. He played one of his best games against Cen- tral. He will be expected to help carry the team on to victory next year. BILLY SNELL (6) Billy was co-captain of the team this year. As a tackle, he was outstanding on both offense and defense. He played his best game against Roosevelt High. Billy was always an inspiration to the team and a great leader. He will be greatly missed when another season rolls around. - JORDAN-CENTRAL GAME (Ba ksdbalL SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES The Red Jacket basketeers had a very successmul season under the able direction of Coach H, R. Kid Cecil. To climax the season, the team won the Bi-City championship, placed second in the region, and won fourth place in the State G. I. A. A Tournament. To attain this, they won third place in the Region I Tournament held at Moultrie and then won two games over Rossville and Brown, only to lose to Lanier and North Fulton in the finals. The team, as a whole, showed good spirit and at times played their hearts out when the chips were down. They proved this in the Brown High game in the State Tournament when they won 27 to 26 purely because they had the backbone to carry on when they BASKETBALL TEAM First Row: Tommy Nix, Bobby Chambless, Kay Slayden, Don Williams, Tom Black, Ralph Pratt.

OL Qifudan. could not score. The man who usually carried the scoring load was the big center, Don Williams. He could score from the floor as well as drive in under the players when the team needed a few points. Jerry Tillman was just a sophomore, and he did his best work late in the season with his twist and turn to the basket. The other forward was Penny Williams, who was adept at getting and holding the ball. As guard, Ralph Pratt was the best defen- sive man on the team. He did not score much, but he was able to hold down an opponent and control the back boards. The other guard was Tom Black, noted for his quick passes and his ability to get the play started. Black improved throughout the season and usually made eight or ten points. The other boys who helped to make up the well-rounded ball club are as follows: Frank Borders, guard; Bobby McGee, forward, Ray Slayden, center; John Venable, forward, Robert Henry, guard; Don Thomas, center; and Slugger Floyd, forward. Of these boys Slayden provided the punch necessary in two of the ball games. There were a few boys who attained honors in the Region and the State. Don Williams and Jerry Tillman were named on the All Region I Team, and Don Williams was given hon- orable mention on the All State Team. MANAGERS John Stewart. (Bernard Holland not in picture). Penny Williams drives in close enough to try a desperate shot for two points that are badly needed. RED JACKETS WIN BI-CITY CHAMPIONSHIP FOR THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR The most exciting games of the year were those played with Central and Columbus High. The Jackets won over Central 41 to 38 in an over- time game and trounced Columbus High 34 to 15 for the Bi-City Crown. Perhaps the greatest surprise of the season was the 40 to 39 victory over Lanier in an overtime game in the Jordan gym.

(BaAsibaiL This year's baseball team has been an up and down team, mainly because of the loss of the ace pitcher and also because of the young boys who made up the ball club. The team was composed of two seniors, five juniors, five sophomores, and five freshmen. As these boys get a little more experience, they should make a very good ball club. Frank Borders was turning out to be a top notch pitcher, but his football knee forced him to re- tire from pitcher to outfielder. The infield consisted of Bobby McGee, catcher; Robert Henry, first; Jack Floyd, second; Tommy Nix, short stop; Tom Black, third base. The outfield was handled by Bobby Chambless, Raymond Cook, Frank Borders, and Sonny Cot- tle. The pitchers of the team were Charles Webster, Kay Slayden, Jerry Tillman and Billy Rowe. The team had able substitutes in Dana Fryer, catcher; Don Saint, catcher; Rubin Starling, infielder, and Ronald Cumbie, outfielder The loss of Tom Black and Slugger Floyd will be felt; but with all these other boys back, Jordan should have a bang- up ball club next year. The baseball team was coached by H. A. Jones and H. L. Slayden.

SnfjibalL One, two, three strikes and she's out is the familiar cry heard as the girl's physical education classes begin practicing for the softball season. It's a punt, in-field fly or perhaps a run; but whatever it may be, softball is a game which requires strength, endurance, skill, and the cooperation of all members of the team. The teams are selected by two captains who have been chosen by members of each class. The winners from each class in turn play each other for the final championship title. Excitement mounts high with the whirling of balls and the swinging of bats as the game gets underway.

Here as many as twelve girls may participate on one team, and they may choose their positions as forwards, centers, or backs.

Jordan again gave its boys an opportunity to display their individual abilities. A field studded with freshmen and sophomores reached its height in a triangular meet involving Columbus and Griffin High, in which the Red Jackets coasted to the front by twenty points. The following ten boys won the right to represent the first district in the state finals: Edwin Deal, half-mile run; James Baggett, one mile run; Ralph Pratt, one hundred yard dash and relay; Earl Flournoy, relay; Dolan King, relay and shot; Billy Trawick, pole vault; Ernest Jones, high jump and high hurdles; Bobby Bodiford, javalin, and Don Thomas, high jump. The other squad members were Billy Meadows, Charles Cox, Clark Langford, Jackie Miller, Wayne Ritch, James Ferrell, Jimmy Orr, Donald Baker, and John Bush.
