Brackenridge High School - La Retama Yearbook (San Antonio, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 242 of the 1928 volume:

• w t editor: MERYL YARBROUGH 'Business eftCanager: GERALD RICE £Art editor: ALFRED GUERRA efttembers of: Texas High School Press Association. National Scholastic Press Association. Southern Interscholastic Press Association. % 4 0NE purpose has served to guide the staff of La rRgtama in the preparation of this annual of the events of the school year of 1927-28. That has been to fuse inseparably into the pages of the annual something of the spirit of the classroom, the emotionalism of the athletic contests, the essence of friendship and fellowship — everything that has combined to make the years in Brackenridge a vivid and lasting memory to the graduating Senior. In presenting this yearbook in Chaucer to the students of Brackenridge High School, the staff wishes to express its appreciation to Miss Florence White, who was literary sponsor of La T{etama for three years. It was through her interest that the idea of a Chaucer theme was first conceived and partly planned. serious and painstaking work is usually dedicated to its inspiration. La T etama staff herein wishes most respectfully to honor the source from which has radiated the constant helpfulness, the cheery encouragement, and the co-operation which has been so great a help in preparing this record—Principal G. W. Gotke. His help and influence have been felt behind every undertaking of the annual, and we are choosing this way in which to express our appreciation.

It is an adventure of mingled trials and pleasures. None are forced to struggle through alone, but altogether, helping one another over the difficult places. Some of you it will lead, without doubt, into strange lands, some into scientific discovery or application, some into the great material treasures of life, some to heroic sacrifices, and all, let us hope, to worthy service IN and FOR a better state. Now, in this adventure, you hope to win success. “There is but one straight road to success, and that is merit. The man who is successful is the man who is useful. Capacity never lacks opportunity. It cannot remain undiscovered, because it is sought by too many anxious to utilize it. A capable man on earth is more valuable than any deposit under the earth, and the object of a much more vigilant search.” Very faithfully vours, Page 1H DEAR. STrDENTS: The time has finally come when you are to leave Brackenridge High School and are to go forth into other fields of endeavor, whether it be for further study or whether it be for the more serious business of making a living. It is my sincere wish that, when you have left the halls of this institution, you take with you the Brackenridge “Spirit”, and also a firm resolve that you will carry on as you have so nobly done here. We, of the faculty, have done our best to develop within you those powers which God has given you. You alone, however, are responsible for what use you will allow your abilities to be employed. I trust that your efforts will always be directed toward the good. As a parting bit of counsel, may I just quote a line from the Old Testament: “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth. while the evil days eonre not. nor the years draw nigh. when thou shalt say. have no pleasure in them.” You cannot live your life without God, no matter how great your success might be. Page Id TO THE SENIOR CLASS: You have striven arduously, you have achieved your goal, and you have come to the parting of the ways. The joys and thrills that you are experiencing from having accomplished successfully your laudable ambition to secure a high school training obscure to a very large extent the tinge of regret that always creeps into occasions like this. All of you are bound to regret more or less the severance of the ties that have bound you to one another, to your friends, to your classmates, and to dear old Brackenridge. It is with genuine regret that 1 see you go. But at the same time with my whole heart I rejoice with you in your praiseworthy desire to march triumphantly forward along the pathway of life. As you leave Brackenridge and go your separate ways, some into colleges and universities, some into the strife and turmoil of the complicated business world, others into the trades and professions, you will need to hold fast, to your ideals. To forget them or to ignore them is to invite failure and disaster. Permit me to wish for each of you a most prosperous and pleasant voyage upon the “Sea of Life” and a safe and happy landing on the shores of Eternity. Remember! You carry with you my best wishes and utmost friendship. Yours most faithfully. £, -72 Page 20 DEAR SENIORS: Let me congratulate you on the completion of your high school work. Only a small percentage of the boys and girls who enter school in the grades continues faithful to the end and receives a high school diploma. Because you are exceptional in determination and ability, I wish to remind you that your real education is just beginning. Whether you enter college or not, opportunities for knowledge await you everywhere: in books, magazines, lectures, over the radio, and in your contact with people. From the vantage point of my large experience, let me urge each of you to keep constantly before you a high aim toward which you work courageously and optimistically. A definite aim will bring the satisfaction of the accomplishment of great things. The consciousness of work well done brings the only real happiness. Wherever your separate paths may lead, feel assured that I wish every one of you a full measure of the world’s- success and joy. Sincerely yours, fjUL. vp A- Page 21 TOP ROW:—Jessie Abbott, Florence Allem, Kate Andrews, Georgia Armstrong.

Enthusiastic it was, and willing to serve; there was nowhere a class so efficient. A president, Jay Sam Levey, a vice-president, Wilma Wells, a secretary, Elizabeth Grother, and thereto a treasurer, Ralph Milam, were in this company. Disci-eet they were, and of great distinction. Sponsors there were, Mr. Troutz, a worthy man ; and Miss Lawrence and Mrs. Sehlochaur are full rich of excellence. They seemed such; their advice was so wise. At Camp Normoyle this class had been at dances two; well could they dance and sing; in fellowship, well could they laugh and talk. The president and vice-president proved leaders good. With full glad heart did every one agree that this had been a successful party. It happened on a day in December, to tell it to you as shortly as we may, a senior carnival was held. Every one was entertained in the best possible way. Full pleasant were the booths and stands; great mirth the side shows gave; and certainly the “criers” had a merry note. People had to give silver to the fishpond and thereto to the country store. A Queen of the Carnival there was, called Ima Gene Beasley and with her the King, Wallace Murray. After this had the Senior Class much gold in coffer. It fell upon a day of the year that falleth not oft within four years, a Leap Year dance they held. The maidens everyone, a youth could ask her escort to be, anon a stag line they formed. Much delight was every girl's the power of the stronger sex to feel. And certainly, it was a jolly party. In the second semester the best election doubtless was held—the favorites of the school, their pictures to appear in La Hetama. Great was the sport at Camp Normoyle that night, and also the lusty season of that spring put everyone in sweet pleasure as they danced. And on the morrow, when a new day had begun, to the Texas Theatre many went. And there withal the formal Graduation exercises brought our services to an end. TOP ROW, Left to Right:—Mr. C. E.

Full well did this class labor, for with them were Misses Stella Q. Smith. Zollie Hale, and also Major B. .1. Reilly, all worthy sponsors and wonderfully encouraging. It happened that, at the first meeting of the fall, great dramatic show of enthusiasm there was, hut all made forward at once to organize and preceding classes to excel. After long counsel, for to he their officers they chose this company: Ellison Eciiteriioff.......................President Annette Patrick.......................Vice-President Selma McCullar.............................Secretary J. Y. de ShOng.............................Treasurer Helen Oonzai.es......................Parliamentarian Dave Koch 1 ,, , , , Robert Bigger )...................Sergeant s-at-Anns Frances Hicks...............................Reporter A fairer fellowship there was none in Brackenridge. And shortly, when that the officers were elected, of originality the class was not lacking; fox-, as a project, a “Student’s Hand Book” it was decided to publish. Of its kind, from the North unto the South, there never has been such another service rendered Brackenridge, for in that book is information for patron and thereto for students. On Friday, in the fall, on October 18, the Juniors a picnic gave at Fair Oaks Park—and truly, no one ever saw so merry a company at once. For to make them the more merry, there were games, and prizes, and eats anon—and of fun they lacked nothing. Thanks they gave to Annette Patrick and to Nell Patrick, her sister, who for her courtesy and service was elected into this fair fellowship. Shortly, when that the spring came, officers again elected were. No changes were there, only that John Ackermann and Billie Bedell Sergeants-at-Arms were elected, and also Frank Knapp reporter—no changes were there otherwise. Befell, that in that season called Valentine's, an elaborate party was held. Great mirth made our committee us every one. A Queen of Hearts was there, called Marie Horton, with her there was a King, called Ellison Echtcrhoff; and they had court attendants: Norma Besalski, Foy Lynn McDonald, Elizabeth Miller, Marjorie Groce, Selma McCullar, Frank Knapp, William Copeland, J.

We think it according to reason to tell you all the conditions of La Retama for this year. Of Chaucer took the staff most care and heed to make the theme and book the same. By the old wood-cut technique of art work and thereto the Middle Knglish style of literary expressions of the Annual, it is ever the desire of the staff to give to the school a book that shall all others surpass.

A. last year; therefore the staff labored hotly ever more its reputation to hold. At no time before had the Times in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association ranked, nevertheless, when that three issues, written after Christinas holidays had passed, were entered, men said that they were among the best nine. A new staff there was this year and thereto new sponsors. Miss Edith Fox there was that of her editorial work was full worthy and of great ability; and JOHNSTON Editor there was also Miss Goodwin, well could she keep the business of the papi Mr. W. E.

The business staff was a well good working staff, for truly to tell, upon a day they got more subscriptions than that they had ever got before. Several hundred dollars into their coffers they brought by advertisements, but of the which they bought equipment, paid expenses of delegates, and bought trophies, and awards for Times workers. Now, certainly, this is a very good paper. GRAHAM Business Mgr.

A chapter anon Bracken ridge had. The National Board must of published work of each one read and report, and each must be ruled by decision of that same board, whether that the character of each one, the average, and the position of the staff are full worthy of the honor of membership. Pins and certificates of membership belong to each member. There is not such another honor except membership in the National Honor Society.

Reilly again was Commandant of the Cadets with Sergeant J. O’Dell for to help him. Courteous they are and of much service to the school. Ray Bellinger they chose to be Senior Major. Another officer with him had he that was Junior Major, called John Breit. Sponsors seventeen were elected and teachers five: Major Sponsor Irene Bowen, Mr. 0. W.

E. Troutz, Louise Mangham, Dorothy Hill, and Frances Stephens, Company D, Sue Rowan, Dorothy Sullivan, Staff. Miss Katherine Hollier does sponsor the Rifle Team. A Rifle Team was organized. In all the State of Texas there never was a rifle team yet among girls. With them were officers Dorothy Hill, President; Sue Rowan, Vice-President; Ella Richardson, Secretary; Louise Mangham, Treasurer; Ruth Delemater, Executive Officer. Now are they members of that fair fellowship called the National Rifle Association. It fell upon a day in March, at Garrett Field, that units of Texas Military Institute, Main Avenue, and Braekenridge High Schools together came for to see which could surpass the other. There was no unit there, as it thought the judges, so good as T.M.I. To them was given the Alexander Joske Cup. The truth is this, second place tell to Main Avenue; and third, to Braekenridge. The National and Regimental Colors were to Main given. But, nevertheless, a better band than that of B.II.S. can men not find; the silver loving cup to B.H.S. they brought. In individual drill T.M.I. first and third places took; and to Main the second place fell. In relay race and tug of war T.M.I. others surpassed and for prize received a silver loving cup. A better Lieutenant, we know that nowhere there is than Harry Tryer, and he bore himself so well that day he brought the saber for his school's glory. On a day in January to the Junior Schools went the Cadets for to give exhibition drills and in parades three were they also. A Medal Men’s Club there is and they have officers: President, Ray Bellinger; Secretary-Treasurer, Fred Earhart. Great fun had this club when to the banquet at Kon Nam they set themselves, and Chinese victuals of the best they ate; and there to was a banquet held in March when that new officers must elected be: President, Hilliard Hightower; Vice-President, Robert Myer; Secretary- Treasurer, Raymond Hancock. Full much praise and there to great appreciation the Cadets desire to give to Mr. Gotke and members of the faculty who them helped when that they needed co-operation, and especially when that Mayor Reilly and Sergeant O’Dell have labored to make this Company full worthy; and certainly it is a good fellowship. lUflc (Leant THE Rifle team has as Captain Edward H. Besse, Jr., with Allen Academy, Phoenix, Ariz., and Rockfort, 111., matches were fired; and thereto were they entered in the Eighth Corps Area and Ilearst Trophy matches. On April 7th with Main Avenue, and T.M.I. did they compete. In this Company of shooters are: Edward H. Besse, Jr., John Breit, Robert Floyd, Jack White, and John Crews. On a day in April at Fort Sam Houston on the Ninth Infantry range, cadets for the city championship in shooting fought. Full worthy was Edward H. Besse, Jr., in this contest.

This same coach had whilom, made a winning team at Junior School. He is called Toady (Wright) Hilev. A graduate of A. M. College he is, and thereto he spent last summer at Knute Rockne school of coaching, while school is at S. M. U. Here learned he full much about plays and formations for to help the Eagles go through a successful season. When that Coach Riley to Brackenridge was come, full oft a day he said “Alas”, for hard he had. So much trouble had never coach, that is, or shall, while that the world may endure. And though that he were in full much concern, he trained a fair team, the which defeated Austin and held Waco and Temple to low scores.

In their time they were such conquerors that greater there were none under the sun. Games nine they played and six they won. And certainly victory was greatly due to Coach Wright Riley and Assistant Coach Manor Puckett, both wonderfully active and great of strength. On September 2:1. the game began. And so it happened that Fredericksburg defeated was 12-G. But although it be that the Eagles were overconfident, Birdwell and Cullen were full worthy players. in I hanks ivin Day ('lash with Main Avenue Page 170 LEFT TO RIGHT:—W. Ackerman, S. Martin, D.

And though they were muddy, they proved good mudhorses. Birdwell, Howie, and the line to an advantage showed. Again another victory they won—their first league game—and evermore they had a sovereign reputation. Austin, they defeated 10-0. And certainly they had good stars—Birdwell, Howie, and Meek. When that the worthy player, Rudy Davalos, was hurt, he could not play again for six weeks. It happened that next the Buccaneers of Corpus Christ! lost to Bracken-ridge, 24-5. Creat glory goes to Whitney’s broken field running and thereto Tommy Birdwell’s thrusts through lines. And though they were worthy, Cullen, Meek, and Davalos were full wise.

The worthy Bird-well only made a touchdown, albeit Kivlin s 60 yard run truly was good. At night the teams came into the Temple Club for a dance with the Temple Pep Squad. But, O destiny that mayest not be avoided—on a Thursday in November before a crowd large and important, Main Avenue defeated Brackenridge, 7-6. Early Birdwell for the Eagles made a score: but nevertheless, Main tied in the quarter tour —so were they victors at t he last by a drop kick. Howie, Birdwell, Rudy Davalos, and Murray, others far surpassed.

They proved well, for they had with them for to help them through coaching, Mr. Merton Ridge. After that they had fought hard with the Eagles, their season of play they began. They were ever before others and in good condition; only two teams could on them win. Now is not that a full fair thing that such a second team’s playing should surpass the playing of a crowd of older players ? So hot the Kittens fought the Main Avenue Billvgoats, they beat them fi-0.

Alas, great was the loss in Austin that day, when they met Austin High at the State Meet—forsooth to say, it was their Waterloo. Nevertheless came hack five lettermen. These Riley trained and in all the country, if you seek up and down, there never was a quintet, not even that same one that whilom to Chicago went that time in 1926 so consistently were they chose and of such great worthiness. Next met they Main Avenue High in games three. There one saw men who could think and who could play ball. The first and last games the Eagles won, and though they won the city championship, that same team all teams in the district far out-st ripped. Captain Howie, Rudy Davalos, and Cecil Dalton of the art of basket ball knew many tricks; but others also labored hard for to win.

This team was a stout team for all occasions, of which baseball players might take example. Page 177 lUiys' tennis TENNIS players has Brackcnridge, full excellent players are they all. At the game of tennis they would have always the victory. When that the city meet was over, the contestants in doubles went to the district meet, because that they had defeated Main Avenue. Boys on this team were Charles Flinn and Roy Moody. In the district meet the boys were able for to win victories over Floresville, Charlotte, and Prairie Lee full easily. In May went the team to Austin for to enter the state meet. Page 178 llhjf of JJatljc “c A Good-wyf was ther besyde Bathe, Upon an amhlere esily she sat.

Fred Earhart tells the club that they are not holding themselves socially and that it is time they were making up and throwing a dance. He and Captain Besse are appointed to support the social side of the club. It is suggested that as Fred has such an appeal to the girls that he run for handsomest boy.
