The Fricassee —of— 1925 Published b ) The Senior Class —of— Baton Rouge High School jforetoorb Bebtcation otitty Seniors Cla££e£ tblefe $ep rgam?atton£ ls octet? Htterarp It has been our aim to put in the following few pages, things that will in after years make this volume priceless because it shall contain memories of the Bulldog’s lyre. We have striven to put here magic that will bring wandering thoughts back to the old readin’, rightin’, and rithmetic and even the brown hickory stick, and then allow them in a pleasant manner to drift into the schoolhood days —dreamland—school days. If wre have accomplished this, then thank God, if we have not, still thank God, for to attempt and succeed is the best thing, but to attempt and to fail is the next best. Here’s the Fricassee of 1925, 'tis yours, yours for criticism and approval. THE EDITORS I o one, whom we love and admire, believe in and trust, who is a friend that sympathizes with us in our difficulties, who awakens in us a desire for the world s knowledge, who inspires others to finer things by her own high example, we the class of ’25 take great pleasure in dedicating this volume of the Fricassee to MISS FRANCES DUNBAR As a token of love and appreciation.

A formal dedication and swimming party was given the class by the editor at the Country Club. After the dedication refreshments were served and a short dance concluded the program. The following was the program that took place in the Club House after the swimming party: Purpose of the Party...................................................By Editor Editor’s Foreword............................................By Assistant Editor Dedication Mr. C. B. Turner Class Committee met to decide where surplus money would be spent Applause of Class..................Led by Miss Virginia Morgan, Class President Refreshments Dance Miss Dunbar Entertains Senior Boys with a Laugh Party I he Senior Boys, and some of their friends, were lovingly entertained by Miss Frances Dunbar, May the second, at the Women’s Club House with a novelty “Laugh Party.” As each guest entered, he was given a name, famous in history, and was made to guess it before a tally for the dance was given him. Several contests were held and the winners’ tallies were marked and at the end, the winners were awarded attractive prizes. Miss Inez Simmons and Mr. Charles Farrier were the two winners. 1'hroughout the party, those who cared to dance “waltzed” to the music of Perkin’s Band; others played cards until the refreshments were served. The dancing and cards then continued until the conclusion of the party when My boys’’ gave “Her” fifteen big ones. Any one present will testify to the good time had by all. m ( 16 ) Junior Class Matilda Abramson Margaret A by Shirley Arriglii Ester Austrum Irma Babin Lillian Babin James Bateman Dorris Becker Katherin Bennett Hilda Bienvenu Dorothy Blair Roy Blanchard Beatrice Boudreaux Gertrude Boudreaux Dorothy Bourgeois Nettie Mae Bavard Mary Betty Brewer Ethel Brogden Shirley Claire Brown Walter Browning Dina Broussard Junie Burgin Frances Burns Van Calhoun Anna Callihan James Callihan Lula Cangcmi Mary Cangemi Lynwood Carpenter Walter Carolyn Victor Cascio Charles Clark Gertrude Comeaux Mildred Collins Mae Belle Colomb Eddie Cooper Margaret Dabadio Gladys Daigre Stella Davidson Lavern Day Hubert Delaville Leola Denny Cecil Doiron My rant Dorsey Rainford Dorsey Harris Downey Alfred Duby Inez Easton John Ellis Jules Evans Katherine Ewing Roberta Fick Vivian Ford Maggie Fortenberry Clifford Freeman J.

Out of a total of nine games played, with the best schools in the state, the Bulldogs won se en, losing to Homer 6-3, and to Patterson 6-0. The Patterson game was a great upset because the Bulldogs were really three or four touchdowns better than Patterson. I he forward pass was the best ground gainer for the Bulldogs. “Redus Day to Charlie Aby,” was the explanation for many Bulldog touchdowns. Aby. right end, Redus Day, fullback, and Louis Harrell, halfback, made Harry Martinez’s All-State team. The letter men were: Capt. Max Keller, R. Day. L. Day, Randolph, Louis Harrell, Lawrence Harrell, Babers, Flynn, Reddy, Aby, Tillman, Carpenter. Wren, and Gill.

His injury, received in the Hammond game, kept him cut for the rest of the season and his loss was keenly felt by the entire team. CAPTAIN W. H. TILLMAN (l925-’26)—‘Tatty is a great tackle and will lead .he Bulldogs to victory next year. He made Pitcher’s all-State team at guard. LAVERN DAY—Lavern was cne of the best centers in the state in 1924 25, although he was a onc-ycar man. He will strengthen “ Tommy’s” l925-’26 stone wall considerably. LLOYD GILL— Spark-plug” was a whip at guard and very few guards in the State were his equal. Gill finishes this year. LOVICK WREN Dove played guard this season and played havoc with enemy plays over his side of the line. LYNWOOD CARPENTER—“Sheik” played tackle on the team and was a capable running mate for Tillman. They are a pair of aces at the tackle positions and both will return next year. Cl IARLES ABY—Charles was an all-State end and the fastest man in State Prep circles. Aby and Redus Day made opposing teams sec the value of having a good defense for the forward pass. Charles made a 98 yard run against Morgan City after receiving a lateral pass from Day. CHARLES REDDY Reddy was a little stick of dynamite at right end. He stopped them all in their tracks. Charles graduates in May. WADE RANDOLPH—“Jada” filled Max’s shoes in fine style for a new man at the quarterback position. He will be a demon in l925-’26. LAWRENCE HARRELL Spec lived up to his family name and was the fastest halfback on the squad. He will be back in l925-’26. RHEA FLYNN— Porky” was a great little ground gainer in I924 ’25, and his good work caused considerable comment. He will also be back in l925-’26. BERTRAM BABERS Bert was the strong man of the team and the best punter in the State. In the Homer game he averaged 59 yards in 10 punts. He played half back and guard. Bert finishes in May. LOUIS HARRELL— Tec Tec or “Bullet” was the T. N. 1. of the team in l924-’25. This little half-back will bear watching in l925-’26. REDUS DAY— Hero filled the full-back position for the Bulldogs and he made the all-State team of the New Orleans States as the reward. Day was the tosscr of the forward pass to Aby and Flynn, and his equal in that line has not been seen in the whole State. His work in line plunging and backing up the line was exceptionally goed, and was the cause of much comment in football circles. This triple-threat man will not be seen in ihc Bulldog’s line-up again as he finishes this year. (22) inmimmxommi Baton Rouge High had the best track team this year that has ever represented the Old Green and Gold in the State Athletic Association. The Bulldogs won dual meets from Boys High and Bolton High by scores of 77-40 and 79-52, respectively. At the Geoigia I ech Relay carnival, the Bulldogs copped second place in the open interscholastic mile relay from twenty-three other schools. The State Rally was the final contest and the Bulldogs loomed up as title winners. Captain Charles Aby, Rcdus Day, W. H Tillman, LaVern Day, Joe Tetlow, Gerald Wilson, Bert Babers, Sam Lambert, John Day, Francis Hammett, Clayton Rutledge, Louis Harrell, and Wade Randolph are the men who have worn the school’s colors in the meets. The most brilliant achievements of the season were the record breaking tosses of Bert Babers, in the shot and LaVern in the javelin. Babers threw the shot 47 feet, one inch and LaVern made a heave of 164.4 feet in the javelin. Charlie Aby ran the 440 in 52.1 and broke the state record of 14 years standing. Track scores. Bulldogs 77 Tech Carnival: Second in the mile Warren F.aston 40 relay. Bulldogs Bolton 79 52 State Rally: Bulldogs 40.1, as her three closest rivals put (as much together) J (24 ) Tracksters of 25 CAPTAIN CHARLES Paddock” ABY ran the 50. 100. 220. 440. and relay. During the entire year, this cinderpath artist lost but one race. His individual score for the year was 38 points or seven firsts and one second place. Charles was one of the greatest captains the Bulldog track teams have ever had. 1 le holds the State record in the 440 with 52.1 seconds. BERTRAM Big Mama BABERS put the shot away after winning it in three meets for a thousand per cent and I 5 points. LaVERN DAY, Redus Day’s little brother, threw the javelin away for a new state record of 164.4 feet. Good Work LaVcrn! JOSEPH “Speedy TETLOW preformed very creditably this season and will be a gem in Mr. Ed’s crown next year. Joe is a very good sprinter and broad-jumper. He won second in the Rally broad-jump. SAM LAMBERT entered into an agreement with Redus during the first week of track season and lived up to it. Sam won his 220 low hurdles in the State Rally. Excellent, Sam! GERALD WILSON is a high jumper de luxe and tied for third in the Rally. Next year he should be hard to beat at any height. LOUIS Bullet’’ HARRELL, that little bit of T. N. T. from Baton Rouge High fought hard to win fourth in the Rally pole vault. He is a fighter of never-say-die sort and will win laurels galore next season through his aviation stunts. CHARLES REDDY helped Coach Young out materially in the low hurdles and won them from Warren Easton in 28 flat. Some boy .Charlie! FRANCIS “Mule” MAMMETT ran a good many miles for Baton Rouge High and next year will be one of Coach Ed’s best bets. CLAYTON RUTLEDGE with this year’s experience under his belt is going to be a great 880 yard man next season. W. H. TILLMAN, Twenty-Five” stepped a mean quarter in the relay and will be back next next year to keep up his excellent work. JOHN DAY, Spencer’s younger brother, lived up to the family name and made “them all like it” in the rally, winning the hop, step, and jump. REDUS “Hero DAY was one of the high point men in the rally last year, winning the low hurdles, establishing a new record in the javelin, and running a lap of the record breaking relay team. This year he changed to the high hurdles and as a reward of his hard work, won this event at the rally over a field of classy steppers. “Hero also ran the first lap for the relay team and gave Tetlow over five yards lead on the other teams. 1 his rally was the last time Redus will wear the old gold and green, but his record will linger for quite a while. pullbog Cheer, gang, cheer, our hoys got the hall Cheer, gang, cheer, old.........................has got to fall And when we hit that line, there’ll be no line at all l here’ll he a hot time in the old town tonight.

Commencement is rightly named, for graduation is but the beginning of life’s achievements. By some of you this beginning has been made well, your foundations are strongly laid, you are prepared to go on, you have the backing necessary for progress. Whether you further your education by college or whether you begin work, you have the satisfaction of knowing that you can carry your share of life’s burdens, that you can hold up your end of the load. On the contrary, some of the graduates must feel that they have skimmed through high school by sheer luck, or chance; there may be some who are at the last rung of the high school ladder because of unfairness. Those students are not prepared for the new day which is to dawn on May 23rd. I heir foundations are so weak that it is doubtful that they can really live three months before the Hog Law strikes them for its own. Surely as business men and women they would find many doors closed to them after the first few failures. These students must regret at leisure the failures that they have laid up for themselves. The outlook for these two classes of graduates is first bright and gloomy. Still there must be some way to begin again, to see when one has failed and to rectify the old mistakes. If those of you feel that you have counted many moments that your best work has passed up, begin at once to forget the old carelessness, renew and enlarge your best efforts, make of yourself that which you should be. By redoubling efforts you can reach the level of your best classmates. To you, dear graduates of 1925, the wearers of the Green and Gold pledge faith. May you go forth to apply your wisdom in Service, in Service for others, for your school and for yourselves! Today is yesterday’s pupil. The ladder of life is full of splinters, but they always prick the hardest when we are sliding down. He jests at wounds who never felt a scar. Snobbery is the pride of those who are not sure of their position. Speech is the index of the mind. Manners—the final and perfect flower of a noble character. A Man’s Prayer l each me that 60 minutes make an hour, 16 ounces a pound, and 100 cents a dollar. Help me to live so that I can lie down at night with a clear conscience and unhaunted by the faces of those to whom 1 may have brought pain. Grant that I may earn my meal ticket on the squaie, and earning it I may do unto others as I would have them do unto me. Deafen me to the jingle of tainted money, blind me to the faults of other fellows, and reveal to me mine own. Guide me so that each night when I look across the table at my mother or father, who has been a blessing to me, I will have nothing to conceal. Keep me young enough to laugh with little children and sympathetic so as to be considerate of old age. And when comes the day of darkening shades, make the ceremony short and the epitaph simple: Here lies a man. y y y y He is not only idle who does nothing, but he is idle who might be better employed. •Y- y Y Y Fear not that thy life shall come to an end. but rather that it shall never have a beginning. y y y y The darkest hour in any man’s life is when he sits down to plan how to get money without earning it. y y Y The less people speak of their greatness, the more we think of it. y y y y Love comes unseen: we only see it go. Corrupted freemen arc the w'orsc of slaves. y y y y It may make a difference in all eternity whether we do right or wrong today. y y y y Point thy tongue on the anvil of truth. ■Y -Y Y Y Search thine own heart; what paincth thee in others in thyself may be. Y Y Y Y The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of work. Y Y Y Y The ruin of most men dates from some idle moment. y y Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. ¥ y ¥ Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings. t ix:.nr an ruse or static ’ER ENTERS ffif CONTEST .ASTER (( BEGIN- ,r rd : IV.x Pro gram Friday Night nt WE EN1ER I HE RALLY -TO FIGHT AND WIN' HI—HAWS ’24-75 BUZZER STAFF MAKES FINAL BOW (34 ) Society By Courtesy of “Purple Pel. 1 ?.

Club I he “O EY’ is the name given to a club of thirteen girls organized in 1922 by some of the alumnae of B. R. H. S. One of the features of the Club is its constancy in High. When a girl graduates the members are allowed to take in a new student. I he meetings are held weekly at the home of one of the members and a business session is followed by a social hour. There have been all kinds of social activities by this club this year including card parties, dances, picnics and others. One affair of special notice was the dance given in honor of the Seniors. Confetti and serpentine, music, punch and cake, were features of the occasion. The present officers are: Misses Shirley Claire Brown, President; Virginia Claire Rucker, vice-piesident; Margaret Aby, secretary. We also have the honor of having Virginia Morgan, the first girl to be Senior president in several years, in our organization. 1 he members are: Misses Margaret Aby, Shirley Brown, Frances Holland, I_ Ciddell, Virginia Morgan, Eunice Patterson.
