Those ten years have seen Borger change from a rowdy, blustering oil field camp to a city of progress and dignity, they have witnessed the change in our high school from a small system of little importance to a smoothly-running mechanism that produces citizens of which it may well be proud. Borger was three years old in 19293 a notorious, sprawling town made only for tem- porary use. Then, it was a city of shacks: it has grown into a city of homes and settled busi- ness and social institutions. The realization by the residents that Borger was an accepted and permanent fact came slowly and imperceptiblyg but it has been the main factor in the beautiful homes and handsome business buildings of which Borger now boasts. The ruling influence has fittingly passed to the churches, civic clubs, and schools, which now exert their power to make the best Borger possible. And Borger schools have kept pace with the improvementg indeed, they have in many cases led it. Improvements began on the building in 19293 since then, in a wing on each side of the original building, fourteen rooms have been added, and a building housing the band department, the machine shops, and the bus garages has been built. Borger High School has done remarkably well in competition with other s c h o ol s, acquitting herself honorably in every contest entered. The first year that she sent contestants to Interscholastic League matches was 1933: in that year the typing team won first in regional competition, and Neil Biggerstaff, the winner of individual first, went to the State meet at Austin. In 1934, the shorthand team won second and the bookkeeping team placed first in the district meet. Dolores Little and Pearl Hibbler, and joe Salamy and Argie Belle Stimpson formed shorthand teams that placed in the first ten at State, two years in successiong the next year, Bonnie Broyles was in the first ten at State in individual competition. In 1937, the Bull- dog's Growl was judged the best all-round school paper in the Panhandle district, it main- tains its good record by placing every year among the highest in a number of contests. The high school band ranks yearly among the highest in the national contests at Abi- lene, and soloists regularly win Firsts in their respective fields. Our present drum major, Margaret McGee, was judged last year the best drum major among the contesting bands. But we of the present generation are not willing to rest on the laurels won by those who have goneg on the contrary, we are determined to better their achievements and to pass on to those following, a goal far above that at which we aimed. It is upon such ideals that Borger has been built, and it is by those same ideals that Borger is steadily climbing to the status of a larger and better city.

My administration is the first in the history of the Borger Public Schools to last during the four years of high school work. I appreciate this honor very much because it has given me the privilege of knowing you better. You are to be highly commended for the splendid spirit of cooperation you have manifested throughout your school work and for the success you have attained in the making of the Borgan and in other fields of school work. Borger High School has made an enviable record in extra-cur- ricular activities. Borger High School graduates are writing the name of Borger in bright letters in all fields of endeavor. You are, and you should be, striving to succeed in the life just opening to you. One of the fundamental purposes in education is to be ready for the next step in life. You have a great many opportunities for good service. We hope that you will be prepared for the responsibilities of carry- ing on the burdens of civilization. Yours sincerely crab Uh I Superintendent. GREETINGS TO THE STUDENTS IN BORGER HIGH SCHOOL: The passing of this school year will have a different meaning to each of you. To those of you who will seek your next educational step, may I say: Have a purpose. Do not go to college merely because of some friend who is going or because of the social opportunities it will afford. You will find plenty of friends and social opportunities without seeking them. Select a goal and work toward it with earnestness. Know what you want, and shape your course of study toward that end. To those who, through choice or necessity, are going into some other lines of endeavor, I say also: Have a purpose and work toward it. May your hopes and dreams be realized to the fullest extent, and in the years to come may your names reflect credit upon the institution that has been your home during the formative period of your life. Best wishes, I , u I Principal. E. B. GEYER President W. M. Hooks Secretary phi 1-'i vu- 8 00- BOARD OF EDUCATION Dr. H. Walker has been outstanding in school progress in Borger.

A group of the worthiest boys and s '!? ' ,,, girls, they have set for their work of the year if-. ' ,. the furtherance of the Borgan, the third Borger High School yearbook. Q Y' They have been assisted by a group of post graduates, formerly active members of the . National Honor Society. Vicron Aummv JEAN STAHL Together with other eflicient students ineligible to membership solely because of too short residence in Borger, they have shown scholarship, character, leadership, and service in carrying through projects, from giv- ing interesting programs to making the dummy for the annual, setting up a budget for its production, and consistently adhering to the budget set up. Though as individuals the members of the Society have served the school in widely differing fields-in football, basket ball, tennis, and track: in music as band members and individual performers, in glee and choral clubs, and in quartets, trios, duets, and solos, in debate and declamationg in dramatics: on the shorthand and typing teams or as journalists on the Bulldogis Growl Staff-yet as a group they have worked together harmo- niously and efficiently. They are go-getters -with integrity. N Miss ESKELSON Vicron Aumuav SAGA OF THE MATH CLUB In a Texas town named Borger, To a classroom in high school, Came three brilliant students to ponder What the last decades have added To our scientific lore. Came to ponder fourth dimension, And the theory of Albert Einstein Found a common link to bind them To the mind of that great thinker Listened spell-bound to the reading Of the Evolution of Physics, Written by the one great Einstein And his fellow worker, Infield, Thought of it as of a gold mine, To new worlds, it was a door, Learned how man in search of knowledge, Taught himself scientific method Tossed away false superstitions, In their stead put theories proved Tested by their true agreement With the facts observed in nature, Saw how such a theory yielded More answers to the questions asked, By the wondering, pondering creature Whose one outstanding feature Is his power to search out treasures By his mind and by his measures, Learned how man his vision broadened Till he sensed his proper place In the universe about him Both regarding time and space. How the mechanistic viewpoint Arose and held the central place Till new startling facts discovered Pushed relativity and the field In the forefront, to displace Mechanism, and the ether VVhich had so long been believed To be the all pervading medium Of the entire Universe. How the field magnetic, electric, Proved to exist by lines of force Of both attraction and repulsion Between bodies large and small, And most real, finest concept Of the constitution of matter Is thought to be electrical charges Balanced in the atoms small. These and other truths as wondrous Did joan, Victor, and Peter Lee Glean from all the weekly meetings Of the Mathematics Club. -OLA EsKE1.soN. joAN Barrie Hb' Y PETER Lx-:E Ei-n.Ew.s '32 ALroN McQuI-:LN joHNNv WILLIAMS JAMES WILLIAMS JOHN EVANS Q WN Eff JOHN COCHRAN JUANITA Funk EMILY CARTER MARY jo HOLLEY WHUS WHU The above eight students have been chosen from the entire student body to represent the school in a state-wide WHO,S WI-Io composed of outstanding students of Texas high schools.

Growl staff is composed of 41 students from all classes in high school. During the year the staff has published 26 issues of the Bulldogs Growl, which appear each Friday at noon. In addition to the regular publication of the Growl, there has been a regular broadcast on Thursday afternoon from 4:45 to 5:00 o'clock. g The aim of the Bulldogfs Growl is to serve students and faculty as an official publicity medium and a factor in drawing closer together various groups in the high school. Each department and activity has been given the best service that the staff was able to extend. In October, 25 members of the staff attended the Panhandle Press Clinic at Lubbock, Texas, at which time june Reynolds was elected secretary to the Clinic for 1959. In February, 1989, 25 members of the staff attended the Panhandle High School Press Association at Canyon, Texas, where joan Shouse was elected president of the Association for the ensuing year. The Growl was awarded second place in the all-round mimeographed paper contest, and fourth place in news stories. The staff was well satisfied with these awards because this is the first year that the Growl has been published in mimeographed form. Due to the fact that the retail price of the Growl is only a penny an issue, and that there are no school funds allotted for its publication, the money required to publish the paper has been raised through various shows. In October the Growl presented a three-act mysteryacomedy, The Night Owl, the cast of which was drawn from all classifications, making it an all-school play. ln February, 1939, the Growl presented an Amateur Night, and in March, a Variety Show. The editor and associate-editor are elected by the student body at large after the candidates with suitable qualifications have been selected by a faculty committee. The editor for 1938-39 was Elma Tennyson, and asso- ciate editor, Lorene Boone. The rest of the staff is appointed f1'om the student body by the editors and sponsor.

LIBRARY CLUB Miss Dale organized our club in September. Later she went to Washington to a new and better position. We did very little from the time she left until Miss Maybelle Taylor, our present librarian, came and reorganized it. The Library Club is open to all classes in Borger High School but this year it is made up of Sophomores, juniors, Seniors, and some post graduates. It is not necessary for a student to plan to be a librariang however, he should be interested in books and reading. We, the members, have been giving a series of book reports, thus getting experience in public speaking and acquainting the club with a number of good books. Plans have been made for Held trips to other libraries for the pur- pose of learning about library methods. Officers of our club are as follows: Scorr SCHMALHORST, President HELEN GRANT, Vice President CHARLENE NASH, Secretary and Treasurer MAXINE Gxisnn, Reporter Front row: Maurita Ketchum, Betty jean Chanibless, Frances Watson, Vera Adams, Lorene Anderson, Carollea johnson, Charles Caudill, Margaret McGee, Pauline Martin, june Rey- nolds, Eddie Pauline Harder.

LATIN CLUB A D J ICR CLASSICAL LEAGUE This organization, a branch of the national body sponsored by the American Classical League, is one of the latest to come into being in Borger High. lts purpose is to further, albeit to a very limited extent, interest in classical learning. Among the several chapters in Texas, the Borger chapter is second in membership. Some forty-five students are privileged to wear the very attractive pin which is the emblem of the organization. The chapter boasts also two honorary members, Mr. Mclntosh and Mr. Adkins. A simple but effective initiation ceremony is the medium by which a Latin student may become a member, providing he is doing acceptable class work. The ofhcers of the j. C. L. are: Frances Watson, president, Carolea johnson, secretary, Billie Louise Craw- ford, treasurer. Other officers are: jean Stahl, Lou Verne Price, Jean Risher, Mary Lou Shipman, june Rey- nolds, and Nell Garrett. The Latin Club and the J. C. L. are inter-active. In their meetings on Wednesday they carry on programs concerning classical myths and the allusions to myths in English poetry. In the fall, the Latin students gave a banquet prepared by the home economics department, all the details of which were carried out in Latin. Each student wore a costume to represent a well-known character in myth- ology or Roman history. The members of these allied organizations are keenly interested in their purpose, for they believe an acquaintance with civilization of Greece and Rome will help them understand and appraise this world of today which is indebted to ancient civilization for its governments, laws, literatures, languages, and arts.

GLEE CLUB This year the members of the Glee Club studied, aside from actual singing, elementary harmony and sight singing. Work was also done in musical history. The boys made several appearances in assembly and participated also in mixed group singing. The Glee Club, along with the Choral Club, was ably coached by Mr. Cockrell for participation in the Plain- view music festival held April 6. Though there was no general chorus, the Glee Club was represented by the quartet and various mixed groups of members of the Choral and Glee Clubs.

FUTURE HO EMAKERS CLUB The purpose of the club is to discuss various homemaking prob- lems, personality problems, etiquette and dress. The programs stress the fact that home is the natural environment for a woman, and that there is as much art in making a barren house into a glistening home as there is in painting a picture, writing a poem, or playing the piano: that there is dignity and beauty in service as a career for women. Homemaking offers greater opportunities for leisure, for growth of mind and spirit, for exercise of the body. The members are proud of the recognized fact that anyone who has the intelligence to keep her own home in order is wise enough to be a force in a community. It is the desire of all the members to make life sweeter and better bcause they live and do their work well. Officers are as follows for both terms: presidents, Myrtle Lackey and Betty Gentryg vice-presidents, Phoncile jordan and Mary Jo Briggs, and secretary-treasurers, Betty Casebolt and Mae Ramsey. The club embraces more than fifty members. THE SCIENCE CLUB Back Row: Dean Garland, William Wallace, Frank Cox, Kenneth Chambless, Clifford Hill, Billy Bray, j. B.

Programs of a varied nature are presented weekly before the club by designated members, each member contributing to the program dur- ing the year. Any student enrolled in a science course or having during his high school career received a credit in science is eligible for mem- bership.

HOBBY CLUB The Hobby Club meets every Wednesday to discuss individual hobby problems. The discussions cover all activities that the club considers hobbies. These activities range from play activities to those carried on in con- nection with certain types of work that the members are interested in. The most popular hobby among the club members is airplane modeling. The models built by some mem- bers are very skilfully constructed. These boys seem to gain a great deal of pleasure in making the new types of planes. Several of the club members have boxing as their hobby. This is particularly a good hobby for physical exercise and skill. Two of the club members gained recognition in boxing by joining the Golden Gloves Boxing Tournament for boys their age. These boys pass their leisure time by doing something that will develop an train their bodies. The requirements for belongingato the Hobby Club are merely for the prospective member to have a hobby and to live up to the rules and regu tions adopted by the club. The officers are efficient workers, and have accomplished much this year as directors of the club.

The field of selection is great, for the club consists of extemporaneous speakers, debaters, and cleclaimers. The declaimers study the art and methods of great speakers. They work for better speaking habits, more valuable interpretation, and reading pleasure through the study of oratory. The extemporaneous speakers feel that the world's problem is their problem. They make interesting, thorough, and accurate pictures of the international activities. They have learned to present big prob- lems under the pressure of time and space. Debating is no less interesting. Here they have a battle of wits: a fight for intellectual supremacy. Here is a game made of the ability to think clearly and speak logically, a game of using the head. Dr. Meiklejohn, President of Amherst University, said: lt seems to me that the group of high school speakers are usually tougher in intellectual fiber, keener in intellectual interest, better equipped to battle with coming problems than the other boys and girls. Matthew Arnold wrote this to his mother while he was visiting America in 1866. The best of this country is that if you say truth as it ought to be said, it is sure with time to take effect. The object then is to speak the truth with simplicity and power so that it will take elfect. ii.. tt-,eatin Back Row: Edward Chapman, Miss Pritchard, Leona Hile, Naomi Gallentine, Helen Tillery, Pauline Taylor, Mabelle Wilson, and Leland Long.

For some time the need had been felt to establish a wider friendship among the girls, to develop a democratic spirit among the students, and to provide a social life for the girl of limited means and acquaintances. Two primary types of meeting were planned: one to secure outside speakers to talk to the girls on occupations and positions open to women-what these positions demand in the way of experience, social contact, education, personality, remuneration-the other to be purely social. Its primary aim is to have as many girls as possible working for the beneht of the school and of others. Officers are: president, Thelma Holcomb, secretary and treasurer, Geraldine Burnsg chairman of entertainment committee, Eva Lee Tate, chairman of nrogram committee, Irene Buss, chairman of friendship committee, Eva Lee Tate.

The organization was formed live years ago and since then there has not been a fatality on any comer where a junior Police was stationed. The purpose of the organization is to promote safety conscious- ness among motorists and students near the school grounds. For the past two years Frank jones, working under the sponsor- ship of Charles Rice, has been captain of the local organization, com- posed of sixteen members. Anyone wishing to be a junior Police must pass three-fourths of his subjects and have worthy ideals and moral standards. The boys serve in all kinds of weather without pay, with the exception of two passes to the local theatres. junior Police have the authority to tum in to the Police Depart- ment anyone violating traffic laws. Students of Borger High have learned to respect and obey all signals. 5 9 0 ws Back Row jack Kieth, Albert Tucker, B.

Some of the outstanding aims of the club are: fly to give one an idea of what is going on around him. and also to give him a feeling that it is his duty to lind out what is going on in his city, state, nation, and among nations: Q2j to enable him to realize the attitude of our country toward other countries: Q35 to make citizens of pupils by looking into matters, and by continuing to do so, which will mean that they will not vote a certain ticket merely because their fathers didg f4j to prepare one for a respectable standing among intelligent men and to enable one to talk about politics and understand when others are talking about government and daily occurrencesg and 15, to develop ease of speech on public affairs. The club in H138-l939 found many social and political problems worthy of consideration, The method used to carry on the club discussions is an informal one. All restraints and definite requirements are removed from the work. Each pupil is simply being held responsible for a concise dis- cussion on some event on the day set aside for the work. These dis- cussions are given extemporaneouslyg that is, a general plan of the speech has been formulated and the ideas arranged in order, but the exact choice of words is left to the inspiration of the moment. From this club the contestants for tournament and county meet in extemporaneous speech are chosen. All boys and girls who are interested in such work are eligible. The officers of the club are: Mayme Jon Dunaway, president, and Stephen Ragar, secretary-treasurer. . .y' F 'ls 11' I . i '.

DIV ER IFIED OCCUPATIO CLUB This is the first year of the Diversified Occupation Club, but from the approval with which it has been accepted there remains no doubt as to its being permanent. Students are being trained this year in retail selling, both department and grocery stores, printing, bookkeeping, office stenography, radio technician, machinist, auto mechanic, and household appliance repairman. A total of 25 students are in the program this year. The purpose of the program might be summed up in three major objectives: QU To give worthy students the opportunity of learning a vocation of a worthwhile nature under ideal conditions of practical work experi- ences and related study: f2j To enrich and broaden the school curriculum, thereby helping meet the needs of the community, Q3j To assist the merchants in the training of competent employees. Students enrolled in Diver- sified Occupations spend 90 minutes in class and as much as four hours each day in a training station where they receive their actual work experience, As students come to school a few minutes early for the Diversified Occupation class they are able to take two other subjects, thereby receiving four credits each year although they get out of school at 12 o'clock each day in most cases. In addition to receiving four credits for their two years' work, students who have shown proper progress are awarded a vocational certificate upon completion of the program. Students receive wages for their work in the training stations, and are directly responsible to their employers for satisfactory performance of duties on the same basis as any full time employee. Interest, aptitude for the vocation chosen, and proof of industry are used as the basis for selection of students. A regrettable feature of the program is that only approximately 20 students can be accommodated in this type of work. As less than half of this year's class graduate, there will not be room for more than 10 new students next year. 0 THE BORGER HIGH SCHOOL BAND 'Y 1 1. Y 4 T,,,m'f Q, . -.-.. ..,, Nm.. MR.
