For twelve years he has been coaching football, and this year coached the team that went to the state finals. He is a fa- vorite among students and is beloved by all whom he has coached. When he isnit coaching, Mr. Chapman likes to hunt. He never seems to hurry-yet he gets more done than most of us. pootgotpamce to Seoiop igb Senior High building, pictured above, is haunted with happy memories of another school year, that of 1938 and 1939. Since its erection in 1930 at a cost of S650,000, this building has been in constant use. Increasing every year, the number of students guided by jifty-six faculty members this year was approximately thirteen hundred. In future years, the school may grow larger, but it actually will not be very diferent from that of the past year, for it will continue to house true Westerners who engage in numerous activities which will train them for useful citizenship.

These trophies are representative of the successful efforts of those students who have engaged in school activities throughout the years of Senior High's growth. As one enters the door, the case catches the eye before anything else. Those who examine the case closer may see that football, track, basketball, golf, tennis, debate, drama, speech, declamation, band, and orchestra-all are well represented in plaques, fQ'LlfT6S, and cups, large and small. It is not merely a case of old trophies, but a collection of the successes of Lubbock High School's students who have been the leaders, the hard workers, and the just deservers.

Irvin has been superin- tendent of Lubbock schools only two years, but, during the short time he has been here, he has taken time to become well acquainted with many of the stu- dents and is always willing to listen at- tentively to their problems. He holds a Bacheloris Degree from Simmons College and a Master's Degree from Hardin-Simmons University. He has also studied at the University of Cal- ifornia and has almost completed work on his Ph. D. at The University of Texas. Mr. Irvin is satisfied with the Way stu- dents of Lubbock High spend their time because they "spend it like most normal young people of todayf, DR. J. T. HUTCHINSON W.

Matthews is very precious, for, during his time, he must attend to the needs of over twelve hundred students. This he does efiici- ently by having his Work Well organized and seeing that everything is run on a clock-like schedule. Mr. Matthews has been principal of Senior High School for the past thirteen years, having taken over this position in 1926. He received his B. A. degree from Southern Methodist University, and his M. A. degree from Texas Technological College. He also attended Texas Chris- tian University. A. C. JACKSON E. J. PARSONS ALLEN T STEWART MAPLE WILSON BUSINESS MANAGER . EACH LTY 'Vhss Bella Altman, B.

THE CHALLENGE TO SUCCESS ---- OR ---- THE EXPLANATION OF FAILURE IF . . A challenging Word . . . one to either spur you forward or to later use with regret. All Worthwhile careers have been started and fin- ished on the basis of "If I play the game . . . If I apply myself . . . If I use my talents . . . If I am not too impatient" and such similar decisions. On the other hand how unfortunate regret can be when it's coupled with "If I just hadn't done this . . . or . . . If I just hadn't done that."
