Since that time our alma mater has increased many times in both size and importance. Present enrollment is one thousand and live, with a faculty of thirty-six. Thirty of these instructors were graduated from Oklahoma A. and M. college, sixteen with Master's degrees. The system is now organized on the 6-6 plan. Numerous faculty members have gained national recognition for out- standing ability in their respective fields, and the group as a whole is rated as "one of the strongest fac- ulties in the state of Oklahoma." f, ,e ,1 ,:..v..' -fi.."? .. ,r..,i,...-.1 A 'l l Q W ,J .fvh.

The Stillwater highschool band and orchestra, since they were or- ganized in 1920, have brought wide recognition to the Instrumental Mu- sic Department by the outstanding record they have established during the past twenty years. Contests in which the band and orchestra competed are the Shawnee Band Festival, District at Tonkawa, State at Norman, and Tri-State at Enid. In each of these contests the Still- water groups received top honors, winning in 1940 the Sweepstake at Shawnee for the second consecutive year. The Bugle and Drum Corps was first started in 1938, and after only three years is ranked as one of the most popular organizations in our system. The Corps received second division ratings at the contests they entered last year at Shawnee and Enid. The girls have new uniforms of military style. Over a long period of years Still- water Instrumental groups have won more first division ratings than any other state school.

The choir was made up of fifty selected voices from the girls' and boys' glee clubs. The mixed chorus has done re- markably well in contests in the past receiving, last year, a superior rat- ing at the district meet in Tonkawa and excellent at the state meet in Stillwater. An equally outstanding record is expected from the choir, In january the choir attended the second annual Noble Cain choral festival held in Stillwater. This year's contest numbers were "Tenebrae Factae Sunt," by Pales- trina, "Dark Water," by james, and "Say Thou Lovest Me," by Cain. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The girls' glee club is one of the leading musical organizations of the highschool. Composed of forty-five members, the club has sung for va- rious local organizations. The girls entered the district and state contests at Tonkawa and Nor- man this year and made various trips to other schools to present pro- grams. This year's contest numbers were "The Return" by Schumann and "On the Steppe" by Gretchaninoif.

Not only be- cause of the revenue it brings in, but because of the training it gives the one hundred-eleven who partici- pate in the eight sports offered. Ath- letic directors are Ralph Hamilton, football and basketball, Ross Flood, wrestling and track, Hugh Coon- field, baseball, junior high football and basketball, E. D. Price, golf, and R. D. McDole, tennis. Twenty-one boys take part in two sports, and one hardy lad finds a place for three. Late in August of 1940 Coach Hamilton issued a call for gridmen from the 1939 squad. These led by co-captains Paul McGuire and john Alderson gave a nucleus around which Hamilton built his new edi- tion of the Bronze Bombers. For their nrst contest, the Pioneers traveled to Oilton and opened the chase that led to the championship of the Cimarron Valley conference, by crushing the Panthers 39 to 0. Bud Andrews, Gordon Flesner, Paul McGuire, and Bob Riley scored. The Bronze opened their home season by defeating the Yale Bull- dogs 24-7. McGuire, Hubbard, and Andrews scored. In their third encounter the Bomb- ers defeated the Britton Bears 9-0. Bud Andrews scored the game's lone touchdown. Rex Demaree made the other two points by blocking a Bruin punt behind the goal line. For their fourth victory the Pio- neers rolled over the Pawnee Bears 27 to 7. Journeying to Fairfax after a week's layoff, the Bronze ran into tough opposition from the Red Dev- ils and came away with a scoreless tie. Still trying for their fifth win, the Pioneers unleashed the most power- ful attack of the season on the in- vading Drumright team, and calmed the Tornadoes 33-6. It was Bud An- drews who led the way, scoring three touchdowns and playing his best game of the year. By way of putting a cinch hold on the Cimarron Valley crown, the Bombers met the defending champ- ion, Cushing Tigers, and came out victorious 18-O. .Scores were made by Gordon Flesner, Bob Riley, and Gordon Brattain. Cushing win was number seven for the Bronze. But they met a sharp reversal when they invaded the stronghold of the Guthrie Blue-jays. Pass interceptions proved the Bomb- er's "Waterloo" and they were de- feated 31-7. Gordon Flesner made the lone Pioneer tally. In their season's final the Pioneers tangled with the powerful Black- well Maroons and fell before the Big Reds 33 to O. Even in defeat, however, they played good ball.

The Toys' first win was an 18-0 shutout of Kingfisher, and their other victory was a hard fought 6-O battle over Pawnee. The Toy Pio- neers lost two contests to Guthrie 6-O, and 18-Og and then were nosed out by Pawnee in a return engage- ment, 7-6. The leading scorer for the Toys was Captain Max Johnson with 12 points.

Poe's squad were john Abernathy, Bob Rogers, David McCraw in the boys' division, and Deone Duncan, Mildred john- son, Shirley DeWitt in the girls' bracket. Ross Flood had charge of the trackmen and E. D. Price coached the golfers. The swimmers were tutored by their student coach, Bud- dy Andrews.

The 1941 basketball squad was one of the best teams developed at Stillwater High since the state championship team of 1922. The season started on a two game series with the Guthrie Bluejays, and the Bombers won both of these games to take an early lead in the Northern conference. In rapid suc- cession they knocked over the Yale Bulldogs, the Bristow Pirates, the Drumright Tornadoes, and the Pawnee Bears. These six wins gave the Pioneers the commanding posi- tion in both the Northern and Cim- arron Valley conferences. Pioneers met the Oilton Panthers and won by 32 to 13. This put them back in the lead in the Cim- Valley. The next competition for the Pio- neers was in the regional tournament at Enid. The Bombers went to the finals before being defeated by the Enid Plainsmen. They won their Grst-round game from the Cushing Tigers and defeated Ponca City Wildcats in the second game. In the all-region team john Abernathy gained a forward berth, and was second high scorer of the meet. As the Bronze went around the Refofdf circuit for the second time, they Pioneers Perkins again defeated Yale, the Oilton Pioneers Guthrie Panthers, and the Cushing Tigers, Pioneers Guthrie for their ninth straight. Pioneers Yale The first defeat came in the Ed- Pioneers Bristow mond tourney at the hands of Wal- Pioneers Drumright ters.

They won the Orlando invi- tational tournament and were inal- ists in the Drumright tournament. They gained revenge for this defeat, however, when they rolled over the Drumright boys in the Aggie field- house as a preliminary to the A. 8: M.'O. U. game. With only one game left on their schedule Coon- Held received his call to report for Army duty in his capacity as first lieutenant.

Aleene Barton, Marjorie Bellatti, Pauline Bell, Edith Cupp, Eileen Kirkpatrick, and Marjorie Manning leave their Home Economics skill to Fern Adams, Ruth Boggs , Betty Daugherty, Ila jean Parsons, Doris Waldby, and Carol Ruth Potts. Bob Riley, we have been unable to find one person capable of hand- ling that elegant ego you leave, but perhaps it would be well to divide it between Bill Parker and Tex Stone. Buddy Andrews leaves his tran- quility to Pat Murphy. Mary Friedell prefers to keep Kermit Greene. E. O. Lancaster wills his pretty curly hair to Henry Lockwood. Donald Sullins leaves his cradle to someone else to rock awhile. Sam Sturm would like to leave a few of his freckles with Wayne O'Neal. Betty Wilkins, Doris Gudgel, Charlotte Clift, and Georgianna jones leave their crowns to those few lucky girls who can rate them. Marilyn Hamilton bequeaths her ability to have her lessons ready to Maribelle Haning. Bill Downs and Willard Sollers leave Mrs. Bishop's wastepaper bas- ket full of jokes. At last they are in their place. To Virginia Barkett, Betty Car- lisle wills her baby-talk. jean McGilliard leaves a lot of work to the next year book editor. Nancy Patterson leaves Mr. Rich- ards without a first alto section. Gordon Flesner wills his swim- ming record to Wayne Volger. Deone Duncan leaves more busi- ness for the school bus. Walter Penquite, Roger Hull, and Wesley Colclazier will their cowboy boots to John McBride. Maurine Murphy leaves a barrel of oil from her "gusher" to the Stu- dent Council. T Lucille Hughes takes her affection for the name "Bill" with her. james Mott has asked that jack Saggsser will him all of his dress designs when jack leaves to work with Adrian. Jeanne Hilles leaves her old shoes to David Hilles. Do you think you can fill them? Virginia Barker bequeaths her complexion and hair to Mary Helen Lewis. Mary Sue Thomas and Glendora Donart, who graduated the first se- mester, left a lot of sad hearts. -v PIGGLY WIGGLY L. E.
