Austin College - Chromascope Yearbook (Sherman, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 140 of the 1943 volume:

So hail to old Austin, The Crimson and Gold; Long may her colors fly. Fight 0 ye sons and ye Daughters too, the spirit must not die. So hail to old Austin, The Crimson and Gold, What care we for the rest? We’ll do or we’ll die for Old Austin, The school that we love best. 1943 omascope ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF AUSTIN COLLEGE SHERMAN - - - TEXAS JOSEPH A. PALACHEK Editor in Chief MARGARET RUTH CLARK Business Manager The Star-Spangled Banner Oh, say can you see, By the dawn’s early light What so proudly we hailed At the twilight’s last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars Thro’ the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched Were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s red glare, The bombs bursting in air Gave proof t-hro’ the night That our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner Yet wave o’er the land of the free, And the home of the brave? EDITOR’S NOTE The Voice of a Nation calling for Her Sons to take up arms and defend what they hold dear has been heard on the Austin College Campus again this year. Men have gone out from Her Halls into every branch of the Armed Service of their Nation, Men who had ideals and goals set before them, which they were striving to obtain, Men who, when their nation called them, set aside these ideals and goals and went to fight for the Freedom of speech, press, government, and worship. These Sons of Austin College are indeed Men in the truest and highest sense of the word. They went readily so that we who are still in college might continue our education and become the leaders of the World of Tomorrow, that we might through our education save the World of Tomorrow from going through another World Conflict. Pictures of some of these men are in this Book and I regret that pictures of all are not within its covers. It has been a hard and great problem in finding all the necessary supplies to edit a successful year book. The Staff has labored hard in bringing you this edition. We appre- ciate deeply and greatly the way you have cooperated with us in the publishing of this Book. It is the hope of the Editor and the Staff that as you relive this hard and trying year of your college career that you will find within this book some remembrances of the enjoyable days you spent in classes, clubs, and fellowship with your professors and fellow students. —JOE PALACHEK. Editor in Chief.

The final score, 20 to 6. Austin’s touchdown came late in the second half when Hestand faked a pass and ran 15 yards for the score. October 9—Howard Payne Opening their conference schedule against the perennial Texas Conference Champions the Kangaroos lost to the powerful Howard Payne Yellow Jackets by a score of 26 to 0. Austin played a great defensive game holding the Jackets to one touchdown a quarter. The Kangaroos emerged with a fine kicker in Inman who punted often and long from deep in Kangaroo October 23—East Texas Teachers The Kangaroos and Lions battled on even terms un- til the last five minutes of play of the first half when the Lions suddenly came to life and scored three touch- downs in rapid succession. This was enough to take the steam out of any team with the result the Kangaroos went down by the heavy count of 34 to 0. October 30—Southwestern Pirates Remembering the heart-breaking last minute loss of last year the Kangaroos were determined to win this gam. Determination alone was not enough, however, and the Pirates came out victorious by the score of 19 to 6. Warren and Clayton lead the way for beautiful offensive and defensive play. Our score came from the result of a pass from Madison to Hestand. Kangaroos line up against Denton Eagles.

The Abilene fans were amaz- .d at the Kangaroo fighting spirit even wi'h defeat taring them in the face. November 26—Durant Savages The Durant Savages playing a return game with the kangaroos were shown a different team than they had encountered the first of the season. The Kanga- r M.s made one of their finest showings of the season in losing 2d ot 12. The Savages had a 20 to 0 lead at th • half time and were literally played off their feet when the Kangaroos scored two touchdowns and almost a third during the second half.
