Arlington high school r L i N G T 0 N T E X A S THE 9 5 COLT COIIIUL 5 VOLUME X Many fond memories have been associated with our MAIN BUILDING since it was erected in 1922. Plans are to make this into a Junior High beginning next year. The GYMNASIUM is the center of our social and athletic activities, In the HOMEMAKING COTTAGE the girls of Arlington High School learn the skills that will be helpful to them in their later life. FOREWORD In this, the tenth volume of the COLT CORRAL, we have tried to assemble the hopes, the dreams, and the memories of Arlington High School which you will recall with pleasure in future years. We dedicate this tenth volume of the COLT CORRAL to MISS JANE ELLIS in appreciation for her music, her sense of humor, and her interest in others; all of which have inspired the students of Arlington High School to live by the high set of standards which guide her own life. CONTENTS BOARD OF EDUCATION To the Board of Education we express our thanks and appreciation for the difficult job they ful- fill in assuming the responsibility for the welfare of our school system. Best wishes from all. Left to right: Joe Bailey (Secretary), Floyd Gunn (Vice-president), E. E. Rankin (Tax Assessor), Fred Crook, Guy C. Hutcheson (Assistant Secretary),Superintendent W. R. Wimbish,Odell Shackelford, J. H. Finch, J. C. Ferguson (President). SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS, W. R. WIMBISH The Arlington Public School System has been very fortunate to have the services of Mr. Ross W. Wimbish for the last seventeen years. As high school principal and, later, superintendent of schools, he has served the people of Arlington in an outstanding manner. The announcement of his resignation early this year was received with regret by the students, the faculty, and the Board of Education. During his years with the Arlington schools, Mr. Wimbish has proved himself capable of hand- ling almost any situation. This quality, plus a friendly and dignified attitude, have won for him the respect of all who know him. Mr. Wimbish leaves his present position at the end of this term, but his influence will long remain—in the lives of the people with whom he has worked. Mrs. Carol Ridens is the official secretary to Mr. Wimbish, and the unofficial helper of many. Mr. Martin, after listening to our problems and excuses for nine years, remains the same patient, understanding Principal that we and the classes before us have known. For the past three years Mr. Webb has capably served as our Vice-Principal. I Mrs. Fowler is the efficient and friendly Registrar and Secretary of our high school. Mr. Stephens, as supervisor of curriculum of the high school and the elementary school, and Mrs. Larson, primary super- visor, see that we maintain high standards of education. The Director of Elementary Education, Mr. Counts, has proved quite valuable to the Arlington School System. Our Dean of Girls, Mrs. Nichols, is always ready to help when called on. Mr. Wood ably handles all the accounting and purchasing for our schools. As tax assessor, Mr. E. E. Rankin per- forms an invaluable service to our school system. In her capacity as speech therapist, Mrs. Arvilla Foster does a great service for many people in our school system. Mrs. Newana Counts and Mrs. Marialyce Haughton keep school health records and perform many helpful duties for our “sick and wounded.’ FACULTY LUCILE BURMAN, B.S.

With stout line play by the Colt linesmen, the Broncs rarely got to see the ball. After receiving the kickoff on the Colt 23 Arlington started a drive which was ended by a keeper play around left end to pay dirt by Larry Norris. Graves then converted which gave the C o 11 s a 7-0 lead. Denton fumbled the onside kick and Bud Remynse recovered for Arlington. Five plays later Norris ran through right guard for the second touchdown. Boring missed the conversion and the score remained 13-0 in favor of the Colts until the half. Early in the fourth quarter Colt end, Jerry Moore, intercepted a pass from Denton’s Billy Cogedell and ran 55 yards for another Colt (ally. Boring conve rted and the score stood 20-0 in favor of the Colts. Later in the fourth quarter the Colts took over on downs on their own 43 and began a march which was ended by a pass from David Snider to John Young from the Denton 16. With a victory in mind the ArlingtonColts gave the favored Tech Bulldogs a surpris- ing 21-6 defeat. The Bulldogs, sparked by the Glass brothers, began their first and only drive with the kickoff. Davis and the Glass brothers, beginning the drive on their 3 5, gave Tech its only touchdown of the evening. Davis' try for the extra point was wide and the score was 6-0 in favor of the Bulldogs. With six minutes left in the half, Ronnie Graves ran from the Tech 32 to paydirt for the first Colt tally. Don Boring’s conversion was good and the half ended with the Colts leading 7-6. Tech held out until the fading moments of the third period when the Colts recovered a fumble on the Tech 15. Hyden carried to the 8 where Danny Smith went over for the score. Boring converted and it was Arlington 14, Tech 6. In the last quarter, the Colts took over on downs on the Tech 25 where David Snider threw a pass which was beautifully scooped up by end Jerry Moore on the one yard line. On the next play Earl Hinson recovered a fumble in the end zone for the final Colt touchdown. Boring converted and the game ended with a 21 -6 victory for the Colts. TECH WEATHERFORD The Colts had their first taste of defeat this year at the hands of the Weather- ford Kangaroos by a score of 32-13. Weatherford kicked off and the Colts scored before losing possession of the ball. A drive from the Arlington 27 ended with a colorful 39 yard run by Graves for thefirstColt touchdown. The conversion was missed and the Colts lead 6-0. In the second quarter, the ’Roos made their first TD after recovering a blocked punt on the Colt 13. Later in the same quarter, Johnson plunged over from the Colt one, ending a 50 yard drive by the ’Roos. The conversion was good and the score at the half was 13-6 in favor of Weatherford. Early in the third quarter, Weatherford made another TD and the Colts re- taliated with a drive from the Colt 23 to the Weatherford 12. Snider passed to Remynse in the end zone and after a successful conversion by Boring the score was 19-13, Weatherford. In the last two minutes of play the ’Roos made two more touchdowns and the game ended with a 32-13 victory for the Weatherford Kangaroos. TERRELL It seems that the fourth game against Terrell in four years has not broken the jinx that Terrell brings to the Colts. Playing their fourth game of the season the Colts were set back by the Tigers 40-20. Arlington’s first touchdown came in the first quarter as the result of a fifty-eight yard scamper by halfback James Hyden. In the second half Hyden pulled a repeat performance for fifty-two yards and another Colt touchdown. Earlier in the half Larry Norris, Colt quarterback, tossed a pass to Jerry Moore for eleven yards and the second Colt tally. Don Boring converted successfully both times to bring the score to 20 for the Colts. Although the Colts showed a fine spirit in the last half, the game ended with a 40-20 loss to the Tigers. PLEASANT GROVE The fifth game on the Colt schedule turned into the third loss for the Arling- ton team with the Pleasant Grove Bobcats running up a score of 32-7. Bobcat fullback, Jimmy Gates, seemed to be a special jinx for the Arlington Colts. Gates was directly r e s po n s ib I e for all five of the Pleasant Grove scores. The Colts’ only tally came late in the third quarter after a drive from the Colt 34 to the Pleasant Grove 15. James Hyden took a double reverse handoff from Danny Smith and went the final 15 yards for the Colt score. The Colt conversion was good and the score stood at 26-7. Five minutes later Gates went over for a Bobcat tally and the final score of the game. IRVING On October 22, the Irving Tigers journeyed to Arling- ton to hand the Colts a defeat of 12-6. This game was the sixth bout for the Colts and their fourth loss. The first Irving tally came in the early part of the first quarter when the Tigers took advantage of a Colt fumble. In the second quarter, Arlington ran up their lone score after Bucky Workman intercepted a Tiger pass on the Irving 40. Arlington then began a 42 yard drive to paydirt. David Snider, James Hyden, and Ronnie G raves piloted the ball to the one and Danny Smith plunged over with only 25 seconds to go in the half. After the half-time activities, Irving came back to score on a drive from the Tiger forty for the final score of 12-6 in favor of Irving. CLEBURNE For the third conference game of the season, the Colts received a crushing 28-6 from the Cleburne Yellowjackets. Receiving the kickoff, the Yellowjackets marched to the Colt 2 where Bill Dennis plunged over for the score. Dennis converted and Cleburne led by a 7-0 score. In the second quarter, Cleburne made two successive touchdowns. The conversions were good and the score was 21-0 in favor of Cleburne. Arlington’s lone tally came in the third quarter when Snider passed to Graves, who made a spectacular catch in the end zone, ending a sustained drive from the Colt 17. The Yellowjackets made their final score in the third quarter and the game ended 28-6 in favor of Cleburne. BROWNWOOD 67 -- ARLINGTON 13 The Arlington Colts received apowerful 67-13 defeat for their fourth conference game at Brownwood. The Lions took control from the beginning and in the first quarter sped away with three scores. Early in the second period, following another Brownwood score, James Hyden hit the Lion secondary on the left end and outran them for 51 yards for the first Colt tally. Boring’s conversion was good. In the third period Graves ended a 76 yard drive by shoving over from the 2 for Ar- lington’s final score. During the last half, Franks scored twice. Ford once, and the Lions gained two touchdowns on pass interceptions. The final score was 67-13 in favor of Brownwood. GARLAND The Colts came very close to creating an upset on the night of November 19, by giving the Garland Owls, fourth rated team in AAA, a very frighten- ing scare. Previous to this game no team had scored more than 13 points and only 41 points had been scored against them all year. The final score didn’t reveal the tension of this game. The Colts held the Owls to a 13-13 tie at the half. Passes to Moore and Remynse from Graves and Norris accounted for these two Colt scores. Garland was leading only by a single score until the last two minutes of the game, when Garland made two successive touchdowns. The Colts played perhaps their best game of the season although the final score was 47-27 in favor of Garland. GRAND PRAIRIE Thanksgiving dawned clear but not very bright for the Arlington Colts as the Grand Prairie Gophers handed the Colts a 14-0 defeat in the last game of the season. Tight line play by Donald Thompson, Charles Munson, and Jackie Burch contributed to three scoreless quarters for the Gophers. However, the Gophers started a 71 yard march, crashing for the needed yardage and finally sending the ball over from the 4. Seven minutes later the Gophers passed over from the Colt 7 and then converted. The leading man of the game was Colt back, Ronnie Graves, who was responsible for 64 yards on the ground. Arlington gained a total of 114 yards rushing with Graves, Smith, and Hyden responsible for most of the distance. OUTSTANDING PLAYERS FRED TUCKER Second string All District, Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
