Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1946 volume:

WE PAY TRIBUTE TO OUR SCHOOL WHICH HAS TURNED OUT SO MANY YOUNG AMERICANS WHO HAVE GONE OUT TO MAKE OUR COUNTRY SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. SOME HAVE GONE AWAY TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY'S FREEDOM AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO WALK AGAIN THE HALLS AND CAMPUS WITH US, FOR THEY LIE ON BATTLEFIELDS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. HERE WE HAVE WALKED TOGETHER, PLAYED TOGETHER, AND WORKED TOGETHER. HERE WE HAVE BEEN IMBUED WITH THE IDEALS OF GOOD LIVING, CHRISTIAN LIVING . . . THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE! WE SHOULD BE PROUD THAT WE ARE ABLE TO GO TO SCHOOL AND ENJOY OTHER FREEDOMS IN OUR GREAT COUNTRY. WE CAN HELP KEEP OUR COUNTRY THE GREATEST IN THE WORLD BY STUDYING HARD IN SCHOOL AND BY FINISHING, BECAUSE STAYING IN SCHOOL NOW MEANS A BETTER FUTURE LATER.

HERE ARE THE FARMS, ROLLING HILLS, FERTILE FLAT LANDS, FED BY THE WATERS OF GREAT STREAMS AND DAMS, AND HERE ARE TO BE FOUND THE CHILDREN OF THE PIONEERS, AND THE FATHERS OF THOSE WHO HAVE DONE SO MUCH TO DEVELOP THE CITIES, WITH THEIR HUGE MANUFACTURING PLANTS AND MARTS OF TRADE. FROM THE FARM LANDS HAVE COME THE LEADERS OF AMERICA. RUGGED INDIVIDUALS WHO ENDURED HARDSHIP IN CLEARING GREAT ACRES OF SPACE AND PASSING ON A HERITAGE OF COURAGE THAT HAS MADE AMERICA THE GREATEST NATION IN THE WORLD. THESE TOILERS OF THE NORTHLANDS AND MID-AMERICA ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE DONE SO MUCH TO BRING PROSPERITY TO THE CITIES OF THE SOUTHLANDS, AND ESPECIALLY OF THOSE WHO HAVE BUILT THE SUNNY CITIES OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND FLORIDA. EVERY ONE OF THEM, HOWEVER, ARE ASSETS OF AMERICA AND THE WORLD. IN NEWSPAPER OFFICES, SPREAD UPON THE PAGES OF GREAT PUBLICATIONS, ACTORS UPON THE STAGE AND UPON THE SILVER SCREENS, HERE ARE TO BE FOUND THE NAMES OF THOSE WHO WERE BRED AND REARED UPON SMALL FARMS, IN VILLAGES, AND SMALL COMMUNITIES. THERE THEY HAD LEARNED THE HARD WAY, AND EVEN ASPIRED TO GO HIGHER. UPON GOD'S ACRES YOU LOOK UPON THE SOUL OF AMERICA! THERE YOU VIEW NATURAL BEAUTY IN A THOUSAND FORMS. THERE YOU LISTEN 4 8 TO THE WHISPERINGS OF A MULTITUDE OF CREATIONS THAT SPEAK A VARIOUS LANGUAGE. TREES, STREAMS, MEADOW SINGERS, CREATURES OF THE WILD, THE RHYTHMIC MOVEMENTS OF GREAT FIELDS OF GRAIN, THE PUNGENT ODOR OF THE GOOD EARTH—ALL THESE AND MORE—THESE ARE AMERICA, WHEkE MEN AND WOMEN CAN THINK, WORSHIP AND ASPIRE IN A FREE LAND THAT HAS BEEN PURCHASED AND PAID FOR AGAIN AND AGAIN BY THE BRAVERY AND BLOOD OF ITS OWN. THIS IS AMERICA, WHERE THE FARM BOY BECOMES PRESIDENT AND WHERE ARE BRED THE GREAT SCIENTIST, THE WORLD-FAMED AUTHOR, THE STATESMAN, THE BELOVED POET, AND AN ENDLESS NUMBER OF BENEFACTORS TO MANKIND. HERE, WHERE THE AIR IS CLEAR AND WHERE FREE EXPRESSION IS INVITED, AND WHERE ALL NATIONAL ORIGINS ARE MELTED INTO THE ONE —AMERICAN. THIS IS WHAT GENERAL PATTON NEVER FAILED TO POINT OUT TO THE HUMBLEST SOLDIER UNDER HIS COMMAND—THE SACREDNESS AND GLORY OF BEING JUST AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF US ALL NEVER TO LET AMERICA DOWN, NEVER TO SELL IT SHORT, NEVER TO DESERT ITS IDEALS, NEVER TO LET IT BE ASHAMED OF US. WE ARE ITS SPIRITUAL CRIERS IN A WILDERNESS OF CONFUSION, DEFEATISTS, AND FAULT-FINDERS. WE ARE AMERICA. WE ARE ITS INHERITORS. LET US SO ENRICH IT THAT IT SHALL BECOME AN INHERITANCE FOR THE ENTIRE EARTH! LIBERTY ENLIGHTENING THE WORLD! (GEORGE MATHEW ADAMS.) TO THIS REPRESENTATIVE AMERICA WE ARE HAPPY TO DEDICATE THE 1946 SAPULPAN. MAY OUR STUDENTS BE DILIGENT AND LOYAL IN CARRYING OUT THESE IDEAS AND IDEALS. 9 Table o Content Administration Classes Athletics Organisation Activities f-J- _ Administration Mr. William Griess President Mrss Maxine DeLoe Secretary to Superintendent Clerk of Board of Education Mr. C.

SOME MAY SPEAK FALSELY OF LUCK OR FATE AS DETERMINING FACTORS, BUT LIFE IS GOVERNED BY IMMUTABLE LAWS. PHYSICAL LAW DETERMINES HEALTH. MENTAL LAW GOVERNS THE MIND, AND SOCIAL LAW RULES THE ACTION OF MEN IN GROUPS. THE PERSON WHO WILL LIVE SATISFACTORILY IS THE PERSON WHO HARMONIZES HIS LIFE WITH THE LAWS OF LIFE. THIS IS A PROCESS OF GROWTH IN WHICH THE MOST SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT WILL BE MENTAL AND SPIRITUAL. LET ME CONGRATULATE YOU ON THE FINE BEGINNING YOU HAVE MADE AND WISH YOU CONTINUED PROGRESS TOWARD THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THAT WHICH IS OF REAL WORTH IN LIFE. —JAMES L. PRINCE 4 14 LET EVERY OCCASION BE A GREAT OCCASION, FOR YOU CANNOT TELL WHEN FATE MAY BE TAKING YOUR MEASURE FOR A LARGER PLACE; AND HOWEVER SMALL WE MAY FEEL OURSELVES OR OUR WORK TO BE WE WILL KNOW THAT OUR POSSIBILITIES ARE UNLIMITED. LET US DESPISE NOT EVEN THE HUMBLEST TASKS BUT FEEL THE TRUTH OF THE WISE SAYING: THERE IS WORK IN SMALL THINGS. G. C. CORNELISON IS } Mr. C. S. Anderson A. B.

The tumult and the shouting dies; The captains and the kings depart: Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget! Far-called, our navies melt away; On dune and headland sinks the fire; Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh anti Tyre! Judge of the nations, spare us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget! If, drunk with sight of power, we loose Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe— Such boastings as the Gentiles use Or lesser breeds without the law— Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget! For heathen heart that puts her trust In reeking tube and iron shard— All valiant dust that builds on dust, And, guarding, calls not Thee to guard— For frantic boast and foolish word, Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord! —KIPLING 4 28 I.

A. R. GIRL .. Calendar off Clients MONTH OF SEPTEMBER 4th— acation time is over, and we are all ready tor settle down to work. Everyone is busy exchanging bits of summer gossip. The freshmen arc still having their usual problems—rooms numbers, subjects, and teachers. 7th—Our new principal was introduced today in assembly. We became acquainted with the names of many new teachers. Mr. Prince gave an interesting talk along with his usual jokes. 15th—New clubs are being organized, new officers elected. There seems to be a lot in store for us this year. 21st—“Here comes our bride. Princess Sapulpa High School, on the arm of Chief Good Sportsmanship.” Mrs. Miller, we think the assembly was great and that the kids did a fine job. Was it the inspiring effects of our assembly or was it just our Chieftains’ spirit? Whichever it was, our football boys surely forgot that Chandler was in the game. We came home boasting of our 26-0 victory. 25th—We enjoyed the book review, “Party Line,” given by Louis Meyer. Everyone left in the best of humor, despite the rainy night. The auditorium board enjoyed their usual chili supper after the review. 28th—What a rain! We dug out our raincoats and rubber boots and started to Sand Springs for our second football game of the year. We soon forgot the rain in our victorious score of 14-0. MONTH OF OCTOBER 2nd—Only about ten weeks now and those often dreamed about senior rings will be here. Yes, the seniors selected their rings and announcements today and will now have to wait patiently until they arrive. 5th—What talent we have in our dear old S.H.S.! Yes, boys and girls, don’t be surprised if you see familiar faces on the stage someday. O u r auditorium w a s crowded w i t h visitors anxious to enjoy our Talent Assembly. Hcnryctta 21, Sapulpa 13. Oh. well, kids, it wouldn’t be any fun if we won every game. 8th—Sales slips for the yearbooks were turned in today, and Mr. Davis reported that the seniors had done a good job in salesmanship. 110th—Sapulpa High School has been honored by nany visitors from the armed forces. Many have ecentlv received their honorable discharges from the services. We have also noticed many excited and pleased looks on the faces of certain girls. 12th—What a victory! The Sapulpa Chieftains defeated the Daniel Webster Warriors, 7-0. Sapulpa and Tulsa fans crowded the stadium to watch an exciting game. This game was Sapulpa’s first conference game. 20th—The Chieftains have been scalping again. Yes, we ventured over to Bartlesville tonight and saw another glorious victory. Our boys are really on the war path. 22nd— I he Hi-Y final initiation ceremony was held tonight in the cafeteria. About 50 new members were taken into the club. After the ceremony, chili was served to the group. 25th—What an eventful dav! To start the day off right, we learned that we would have a vacation tomorrow because of the teachers’ meeting at Edmond. The Spanish Assembly was a great success. There seems to be more students taking Spanish every year. The first Pep Assembly of the year was held during the last hour today. Central 19 and Sapulpa 7. Even if the day didn’t end as well as it might have, we arc still happy. 29th—The Yearbook play cast was chosen last Thursday. The cast will get down to work this evening for their first practice. 30th—The Student Council started its Victory War Bond drive today. You may vote for the girl you want for Bond Queen with every 50 cents worth of war stamps you buy. 31st—Tulsa Will Rogers and Tulsa Central like Sapulpa so well that they came over from Tulsa just to paint the name of their school on our steps. 4 42 MONTH OF NOVEMBER 2nd—The Tulsa Rogers Ropers finally squeezed out a 7-0 victory over the Chieftains tonight. It was a swell game despite the cold weather. 9th—File Armistice assembly today was something we will all remember. Many humorous and inspiring skits were presented from life in World War 1. We had many parents and visitors present. By the way, Allen, do you like doughnuts? The Sapulpa Chieftains were on .the warpath tonight with a winning score of 7 to 14 over the Bristow Pirates. That was some tie you got. Mr. Cornelison ; now if you only had some socks to match it! 12th—The P.T.A. had a “Back to School” night for our parents so they could see how hard we have to work. 16th—The “Going to College” quiz was held today in the auditorium. Sam Naifeh won the $25 War Bond by having the highest score. The Muskogee Roughers slipped through the Chiftains’ lines tonight with a 14-7 victory. 21st—Just think! Four days to celebrate the Thanksgiving holidays. Don’t cat too much turkey. As we shivered in our seats for the last football game of the season, the Chieftains battered out a 54-7 victory over the Okmulgee Bulldogs. Now you know what I mean when I say we have a really “hot” team. 28th—The girls aren’t the only ones who get letters to show off. From whom are those letters that I hear Bob Alberding is getting? I hear they are quite interesting. MONTH OF DECEMBER 3rd—Christmas time is drawing near. We wonder why the girls talk in such dulcet tones and become so friendly with the boys? Imagine Bob Martin having a son like Sam Naifeh! The Yearbook play, “His Father’s Son,” explained it all. If you had trouble in making out two odd-looking characters, they were probably “Lilly” Joyce Fowler and “Grandma” Elma June Harper. Winners in the Yearbook king and queen contest were Joyce Fowler and Pat McFarlin. 12th—Football season is over and the Chieftains have taken on a new light in the sports world with basketball. Coach Bomgardner has written to Santa Claus asking him to bring some good basketball players. 14th—Our Christmas Assembly was called off today because so many of the students were sick. The band presented its first concert tonight with 43 }i thc crowning of the band queen. Rose Marie Moses. Remember to be good, everyone, if you expect to find anything under the Christmas tree. Merry Christmas, again, and I’ll see you later to wish you a happy New Year. 31st—Back to school, and look at all the new clothes. Who said there wasn’t any Santa Claus? MONTH OF JANUARY 1st—“Oh, boy, am I sleepy!” was the comment that was heard throughout the halls today. It’s a good thing we don’t celebrate New-Year’s but once even-twelve months. 2nd—We hear that the football boys had quite a time on their trip to the Cotton Bowl football game at Dallas. 9th—Let’s stop to look back at some of the basketball games which have been rushing by. Sand Springs and Okmulgee, both, beat the Chieftains bv a mere one point. More luck now to come; the Chieftains defeated Will Rogers 32 to 29. 10th—A special assembly was held today with Dr. Alice Sowers as our guest speaker. 14th—Everyone is happy again now that the semester exams are all over. A few of the lucky ones w-ere exempt and our new semester began with 522 students enrolled. 18th—The new boys in school just haven’t got the hang of the school yet. They are still flabbergasted at the idea of the students gathering in the cafeteria before school trying to out-talk each other. 22nd—Hard luck, boys! The Chieftains lost to the Okmulgee Bulldogs, 23-20. 24th—The jerseys the basketball boys wear are rather popular. Several fair damsels have been sporting them. 25th—The band swung out with the assembly this morning. Miss Parks was really clapping out the time. 28th—Sorry, seniors, those rings just aren’t here yet. MONTH OF FEBRUARY 1st—The girls brought the pies; the boys brought the money.

Mr. Collier, where have you been keeping those boys? 15th—The Hi-Y Sweetheart Banquet was held in the cafeteria tonight.

Playtime I don’t believe a word of it 4 50 • • . . Ptcpkectf etf I960 Today my two friends and I, better known to the music world as the “Dilly-Hilly Sisters,’’ signed a contract with radio station DDT to so on a nationwide tour advertising “Briggs Pa-loot-im Atomic Energy Tonic” with Wendell Briggs as our program sponsor. All packed and readv to leave, we boarded a streamlined B-29 transport and were off into the wild blue yonder. I noticed the charming air hostesses, Katherine Davenport, Dorene Tauber and Joan Lawson, helping some of the passengers out of the aisles and back to their regular places. We were seated comfortably when a most hideous, uproarious horse laugh was heard. We found the pilot, William “Boob” Wilson, had been listening to the serial of Super-Mouse, and the co-pilot, Varcell Herrin, had been trying to pull us out of a power dive. We fastened our parachutes and found a seat near the door only to learn we had reached our first stop, Washington, D. C. Here we entertained the President, Stanton Adams, and his wife, Iva Faye Grav. with our first performance. Many distinguished people were there: Ambassador Donald Sheffel, Senator Roy McCollum and their wives, Wahllel Kuykendall and Juanita Fretz, who are pretty chummy these days, judging bv the society columns. In Chicago we bought a newspaper and read that James Carter was no longer with Pat McFarlin and his underground, but had a good honest living driving a milk wagon, and that the famous star of screen and radio, Lou Carol Doudican, had given up her career to be married. We also saw that Mary Sue Smith was celebrating her fifth anniversary as the wife of a flier. We stopped by the Mercy Hospital where Dr. Harold Teter and his nurse, wife and secretary, Patricia McDougal, were performing miracles. (We see where they e - the name Mercy!) That evening we took a rocket ship 51 to the club Zanza, situated on Mars. As we entered, we found the check girl was Jeanetta McCrackin. and the handsome little bell hop, Ray Smith. After our specialty for “Briggs Pa-loot-im Atomic En-ergy Tonic,” the all-girl orchestra began to play a rhumba called “Rum Booga Wooga Woo Woo,” and that ever lovely Latin miss, Doris Cowman, did a snake dance and warbled the tune. The orchestra included a member of the old S. H. S. class of 1946, Nell Sidebottom, who played the sax, drum and whatever else she could find that would make a noise. On our way to New Orleans we saw the familiar face of Dorothea McVay on a large advertisement which read, “Chew Tutti-Fruity for the Smile of Beauty.” In New Orleans we arrived just in time to see the Mardi Gras. Attending one of the masked balls were Dolores Taylor and Mary Ann Estes, who swiped our sandwiches while we were off the alert. In Florida the scenery was magnificent, especially at the beach, where we saw some Ready-Heddy’s and Able Grables, Dorothy Asher, Patti June Fox, Barbara Phillips, Deloris Lear and Betty Jo Taylor. I also noticed Sam Naifeh playing the part of a photographer, artist and lifeguard. After our performance in the middle west, we spent an enjoyable evening at one of the old-fashioned state fairs. Some F. F. A. boys, Alan Miller, Wilbur Clark, Roy Lee Ament, Henry Cole and Carl J. Claunch were there judging hens. We noticed the lovely blue ribbons worn by Mildred Prater, Mary To Langmaid, and Blanch Hartman, which thev had won for making the nicest dresses. Margaret Mil-ham. Elma June Harper. Dorothv Ann Davis, Helen Brown and Barbefta Flowers were entered in the cm-n-husking contest. From the corn-husking contest we went to the food tent where we saw Elsie Stinebuck, Tune Rodgers. Lorene Bilby, and Wanda Blankenship tasting sour pickles made by Virginia Phipps, Margaret Engles, Willene Philyawo, and Marian Kitterman. We had a short rest stop in Las Vegas (Quick City), Nevada, where you can get hitched, go broke, or become a millionaire overnight. We saw Dale C. Squires walking down the street in a barrel and Mary Jean McClellan selling pencils on the sidewalk. We also saw Ethel Ausmus go to a Justice of the Peace office with a cute little sailor. We visited Mr. and Mrs. Claren Kendall (Joan McKnight) Williams on their dude ranch near Las Vegas. Here we recognized, with some surprise, some of our former classmates, Mr. and Mrs. Willard J. (Wilmoth Brock) Young and Mr. and Mrs. Ralph (Marie White) Anderson who were taking life easy for awhile. Our next stop, Los Anveles, was a thrill, indeed. On entering Treasure Island, we bought some peanuts and popcorn from Dorothy Charles and Jacquelyn Cloud, who had already eaten so much they were goo-goo-eyed. Farther down the fairway Wendell TIardv. who featured his Bubble Dancers, Toan VanLandingham, Vanessa Ponder, Rose Marie Moses, Patsy Ruth Miller and Alma Lawrence, was the main sideshow attraction. Mary Ella Hart, the oalm reader, sat in front of her teepee flirting with the handsome trapeze performers, Eugene Pritchard, Stanley Shelton and Frank J. Gilbert. At the midwav we saw a group of voting women who had formed the “Dillv-Hilly ban Club.” They were Geraldine Vertrees, Imogene Vickers. Imogene Frazier, Bettv To Wortman, Toan Snider and Marvine Ray. The club was debating whether or not to ride the men-v-go-round. At the tunnel of love, Marv Zarta-ludes came splashing out of the dark depths with Carl (Wolf) Martin rowing close behind. The next morning, our rocket took us to the nation’s movie-capital, Holly- wood. Before our performance, we decided to see a few of the sights. We ate breakfast at Alvin Penn’s well-known “Dine and Die Restaurant.” Helen Oakes gave us service deluxe, although Beverly Moss, the cashier, had a most embarrassing disaster; she caught her arm in the cash register just after we hander her a $20 bill for our meal. On our tour of the “Wolf Motion Picture Studios,” we saw Gene Sherrer as the Masked Marvel, Cleo Bassham, featured in a new western, “Along the Moccasin Tracks Trail,” and Derwood Greeson making violent love to Joan Bean in “It’s Love, Love, Love.” Near lunch time we drove to Ruth Crawford’s Pig Stand where Juanita Wilson, Mable Owens, Joyce Fowler, Joan Hill and Vera Mae Gooch were car hops. We ordered three Razorback Specials. After we ate, we drove by Dan Criswell’s world-famous Cozy Theater, where we saw Marian Gaylord and five men ganged around with chisels and hammers. We thought there would be a gang fight, but later we found she had been making a footprint in one of the cement blocks in front of the theater and had stood there so long the cement dried. Our last sight was the horse races where we simply couldn’t miss seeing Bob Martin ride “Lake Biscuit,” son of Ocean Biscuit, and grandson of Sea Biscuit. Mrs. Margie Dickens Sechrests was there with her better half, and Darlene Enochs Holtzclaw was seen chasing her husband across the racetrack in an outrage. Having been worn to a frazzle at the end of the tour, we were loaded on a plane. Our much-needed nurses, Priscilla Tabb, Etta Louise Sloan, Anna Belle Langwell and Mary Clements decided that what we needed to cheer us up was some of our own medicine, “Brings Pa-loot-im Atomic Energy Tonic.” When we heard this, we nut on our parachutes, deciding that rather that take that stuff we would jump from the plane. —THE DILLY-HILLY SISTERS 4 52 Silly Oh, that look Aren’t they sweet Say it right What page is the lesson on?

The squad looked very promising. Sapulpa Defeats Chandler, 26-0 On Sept. 21, 1945, Sapulpa defeated Chandler 26-0, at Holmes Park. In the first quarter, both teams came out fighting hard for a score, and Grigsby of Sapulpa finally twisted his way through the line for a tally. Carroll converted for the extra point. In the second quarter, Grigsby again fought his way over with the pigskin to chalk up another score for Sapulpa. Vincent kicked the extra point. The score at the half was Sapulpa 14, Chandler 0. In the third quarter, MeFarlin made a score hut the extra point was missed. In the fourth quarter, Grigsby broke through the Chandler line for another score, but again, no extra point. I'he final score was Sapulpa 26, Chandler 0. A fine exhibition of running was shown by Grigsby. He seemed to be a very promising player. I Ie will be back next year. Sapulpa Defeats Sand Springs, 14-0 The game was played at Sand Springs on Sept. 28, 1945. Although both teams came out fighting and played hard, no score was made in either the first or second quarters. The score at the half was 0-0. In the third quarter, Grigsby passed to Seay to chalk up the first score for Sapulpa. The second score came in the fourth quarter, when Grigsby twisted through the Sandite’s line to carry the pigskin over the goal.
