' The ship is tugging at its ropes, Unknown horizons call, And in the surging crowds on shore I see my friends. “God speed,” they cry, “God speed to you!” Dear friends, I’m going far! . —Gladys Franke How wonderfully science has played into the plans and desires of the traveler. This book of travels has been prepared under the direction of Melba Janszen..................Editor-in-chief Gladys Franke................Associate Editor Selma Nuessle .... Club Editor and Typist Arno Simon...................Business Manager Photographer . . Hutchcraft Fine Arts Studio “I never see a map but I’m away On all the errands I long to do, Up all the rivers that are painted blue, And all the ranges that are painted gray, And into those pale spaces where they say ‘Unknown.’ Oh! what they never knew I would be knowing!” Neither air, land nor water can separate us from the port of our desires. LA RETAMA 1933 A Travelogue of the Student Body of BRACKENR1DGE HIGH SCHOOL San Antonio, Texas Russia, China, India, Africa! Each draws us with its particular enchantment. Dedication In appreciation of one who has been with Bracken-ridge since its beginning, first as a guide along the paths of science and now as a conductor; who has endeared herself to all by her friendliness, sincerity, and earnestness, we dedicate the 1933 La Retama to our dean, Miss Viola Moore. � � � � � Quaint Norway, historic Greece, beautiful Switzerland—so read our travel folders. Viola Moore The Orient with its peculiar charm, the mysterious silent sphnix and Kipling’s India—which shall it he? Foreword High School life is like a journey, sometimes monotonous, more often exhilarating, but always advancing to new scenes. Although our student travelers are all seeking knowledge as well as recreation, their varied interests lead them into different paths, such as the arts, science, and business. However, all share in the joys of traveling. They feel the thrill of anticipation, the satisfaction of experience, and the pleasure of reminiscence. Stimulated and prepared by the things seen, done, and learned along the first lap of their journey, the students leave High School behind them to enter into the broader travels the world offers them. Of course we can’t forego the pleasure that a ride in the gondola under Italy’s sunny sky affords. Itinerary of Tour I.

Donald Rochester 1932 The Traveling Party The students embarking for other lands look back at the past etched in their minds. Equipped with the necessities of the voyage acquired in junior high and elementary school, and buoyed by the companionship of guides and conductors, they leave their native soil and all familiar things to explore new fields. Bon Voyage! Slowly we move out of the harbor—New York vanishes in the distance. We are on our way! HE TRAVELING PARTY ---THE SCHOOL Mr. J. C. Cochran Superintendent SINCE WORLD TRAVEL is your theme, it might be well to decide, now, what you expect to look for in your journey along the highway of life. The road will likely be long and beset with dangers as well as many delights. “It passes on through the long afternoon And stretches away to the night.” I would admonish you. however, not to forget the repair of the road you travel, because, ‘ ‘ There followcth after you today Others whose feet will pass this way. They, too, must travel in the twilight dim. My friends, you should build a highway for them.” Mr. Thomas B. Port wood Assistant Superintendent of Senior Division OXK of the wonders of the modern world is the number of boys and girls who arc traveling the high school road. A veritable army of young people is marching over this highway. To those whose journey leads through Bracken ridge High School, T would say, “Beware of the open road.” The open road is the road of tradition. It has been trod by too many feet already. It is a straight road but how uninteresting! One can stand at one end of this road and know before the journey is begun what is at the other end. If you would know the joy of real achievement, strike boldly into the untraveled wilderness where you must make your own path. The world needs a million new paths, each trod by a restless soul who will not be satisfied with the commonplace. Be one of the million! Thomas B. Portwood Mr. Enos Gary Principal 11FE is an intriguing highway. Past human experiences have built J a roadway that you may safely follow. Long stretches of this road are paved and marked for travel. Other portions of it are still under construction abounding with sharp turns, unmarked forks, obscure bypasses and detours at irregular intervals. If by any chance you should leave the main thoroughfare for exploration purposes be sure to examine well the surrounding terrain. It may be thrilling and interesting to battle the clutching fingers of shifting quicksands and quaking bogs, but your smothered body and soul is apt never to be recovered. Beware of the precipices in your pathway. Best wishes to each of you Bracken ridge students for an enjoyable and profitable trip and a safe arrival at your chosen destination. Exos Gary Mr. Roy R. Kay Vice-Principal AFTER successfully traveling through high school you will he con-l fronted with the problem of deciding which way you are going when you start on your new journey. On this new and longer journey of life there arc two types of human beings. There are those who drift, taking what seems the easiest way, and those who choose their own direction. fighting against the current, choosing the harder way of struggle that leads to success. Don’t be a drifter. Select your objective and go in that direction no matter how strong the opposing current. Once you are headed ir the right direction all that is necessary is to geep going. Roy R. Kay Miss Viola Moore Dean MANY of you pupils in Bracken ridge are nearing the commencement of that portion of Life’s journey which reaches from high school to tlie open spaces in which you will find your way to success or failure. You depart with my sincere wish that you will have the courage to continue in the right direction, even though the way be uncharted and the travelers few; the will to persevere in spite of obstacles; and the ability to see and enjoy the beauty along your way. May the evening of your journey be filled with satisfaction, because you have helped your fellow travelers; and joy, because you have reached a high and worthy destination.

Chairman May, Mrs. J., Press Chairman Parent-Teacher Association P HE object of the P.T.A. is to promote child welfare in the home and school through intelligent co-operation of parents and teachers. To accomplish these ends, the B.H.S. association maintains a student loan fund and assists the school in every possible way. The welfare work of our high school is surprisingly large and varied. We have a loan library for pupils who are not able to buy textbooks. We also furnish such pupils notebooks, car fare, meal tickets, and even clothing. We were fortunate this year in securing the concession at Eagle Field, where, through unselfish effort, our members realized enough profit to carry on the welfare work for the year. Among other activities is the Senior Dance, sponsored by the P.T.A. and the Senior Class. The Honor Banquet, one of the most important social events of the school, was given in May. A'l students who had gained recognition in scholarship, leadership, or athletics were the guests. P.T.A. activity, however, is not all work. We have an interesting and instructive talk at each meeting and a pleasant half hour of recreation and refreshments following each program which brings about fellowship and better un-derstanding between teachers and parents.

ONDUCTORS AND GUIDES ---FACULTY Gary Kay Moore Higgins Fraley Goodwin Brinkman Phillips The central office where service is the watchword. Administration MR. GARY’S and Mr. Kay’s offices function with the school office. Faculty members, parents and students bring to Mr. Gary questions of every kind which he settles justly, wisely and sympathetically. Mr. Kay supervises the discipline of the boys, advises them about their choice of subjects, and keeps a record of their work. Our dean, Miss Moore, officially represents the girls of Brackenridge. She coordinates their interests and is their spokesman and counselor. She assists the girls in their choice of subjects in relation to college or vocations; supervises the extra-curricular and social activities, and especially looks after the health of the girls. Four girls each period, two juniors and two seniors who must be making satisfactory grades, help perform the many duties of Miss Moore’s office and arc rewarded with sendee cards. The aim of the attendance office is service to the faculty and parents. Miss Higgins is in charge, assisted each period by six students who receive service cards for their work. This office looks after and keeps records of everything in connection with the attendance of nearly two thousand students. Miss Fraley and Miss Hunter are improving the library as fast as time and funds permit. Room 203 is now the library work room. Miss Goodwin, school cashier, has moved her desk to room 209, headquarters for school banking and employment. Miss Brinkman and Miss Phillips in the school office attend to a multitude of duties growing out of every phase of the school’s busy life. Mathematics BECAUSE mathematics is the foundation of all sciences and because it enters into every walk of life, leaving its peculiar stamp upon civilization, it is desirable that pupils should know what its general nature is and what people mean when they talk about percents, formulas, theorems or prisms. Rrackenridge Senior School offers excellent, opportunity for obtaining both the practical and cultural value of mathematics. The course in business arithmetic gives practice in the mechanics of arithmetic, teaches calculations in mensuration, percentage, and its application to various business forms. Algebra has been called generalized arithmetic, as it possesses many of the same properties and functions. It requires the same accuracy of thinking as geometry but less reasoning. Algebra is a highly correlated subject, with the formula, graph, directed number, and equation forming the main body of the work. The principal value of plane geometry arises from the fact that it exercises the reasoning power more and claims less from the memory. It develops power rather than acquisition of facts. It teaches how to apply geometric laws and discover new ones. Solid geometry, required for entrance to engineering schools, is offered in Rrackenridge. The practical utility of trigonometry is great. It has a large number of genuine and interesting applications. It is so widely used in the exact sciences that it has been called the back-bone of applied mathematics. The study of trigonometry offers a good field for the training of students in accuracy and affords excellent practice in numerical calculations. Abbott Prey Lancaster Smith Cory K.

James This Sophomore English class refuses to be disturbed by the photographer. The English Department THE teachers of English have been experimenting with a new course of study, which suggests several changes. English III and V are now courses in language—composition; English IV and VI, courses in reading—literature. During the term an exhibit was held, showing original literary maps, poetry, anthologies, and illustrated booklets of colonial life, Anglo-Saxon customs, and other interesting subjects. An effort is made in English III to enable the student to write good English, to speak fluently and clearly, to produce creative work, and to use correct English. In English V drill on functional grammar is given. The student is trained to present material that he has collected and organized and is encouraged to do original work. In English IV the emphasis is placed upon improving the student's reading skill and guiding him in the acquisition of 4'a rich and varied literary experience” by opening to him new and attractive fields of reading. In English VI, during the study of the representative work of great American Writers, the student is given some conception of the vastness and variety of literature and encouraged to “venture and explore.” Original essays, lyrics, and short stories are written. In English VII especially attractive booklets have been made, consisting of the best original work of the student, including one-act plays, ballads, cinquains, lyrics, and essays. English VIII stresses discrimination in reading, to enable the student to establish the habit of reading as a means of pleasure and development after he leaves high school. English, Journalism, Public Speaking SINCE journalism has become a college credit subject, its enrollment has increased noticeably. Tin first year’s work consists of news writing and news editing. The second year is feature writing and editorial writing with much work in The Times office for practical experience. This year The Times won the highest honor possible, the Medalist award, at the Columbia Scholastic Press Conference. After this year public speaking will be a prerequisite for debate and dramatics. It aims to give the students experience in the organization and delivery of original speeches. The department participates in many inter-school competitions which prepare the students for Interscholastic League events. Last year Frank Kosson was victorious throughout the season and won for Bracken ridge the state cup in extemporaneous speaking. Debate is a favorite subject in this school, due to the successful record of our debate teams and because a number of debaters trained in Brackenridge have made the University of Texas debate teams. This year Brackenridge was declared city champion in debate when the other city high schools, for the first time in history, failed to compete. This makes Brackenridge the city champion in debate for the ninth consecutive year. In the district meet both teams were victorious. The Dramatic Department aims to give each member a polish in diction, to overcome all self-consciousness, and to offer a new field for enjoyment. In the Interscholastic League Contest last year, Brackenridge won first place in the stale with its one-act play, “The Hour Glass” Kocii Ch. Lawrence Ce.

Practical Arts Til E Practical Arts in Brackenridge include home economics in its several branches, manual training. mechanical drawing, architectural drawing, and free-hand lettering. The latter has been added as a separate course this year. All of these subjects train the hands as well as the mind. As practice is essential in any art, the students learn to do by doing. The broad aim of these courses is to help prepare the students for useful pursuits, constructive thinking, and home making. Our home economics courses do more than teach the girls to cook and sew. In fact, only about two-fifths of the time is spent on cooking and sewing; the other three-fifths is devoted to the study of worthy home membership, character training, citizenship, the financial problems of feeding and clothing a family, designing and selecting clothing, textile study, and leisure time problems. Interior decoration teaches the girls to plan and furnish a home. The increased enrollment in this department is evidence of the worthwhile work it is doing. This year the wood-working classes made the new score boards for athletics and constructed additional stage properties. For the first time, the school system provides the instruments for mechanical drawing, which makes this training available for more students. At the chapter exhibit of the American Institute of Architects, held at Witte Museum, an exhibit of work by senior school architectural students was included. Lettering students have done pen lettering for the library and English Department, and have also made numerous posters for school affairs. Department of History THE Department of History in Brackenridge is spending much of its energy this year upon a new project. The usual “Term Papers” have been shelved for the interesting task of discovering the books on historical subjects contained in San Antonio's excellent Public Library. The purpose of this study is to find the possibilities of the library, and to make a complete list of suitable books with a short criticism of each. This list is to be used by all students in the History Department of Brackenridge High School. The method pursued is this: First, the whole card index of the library is carefully searched, and every possible title listed, with author, publisher, date of publication and call number attached. Then these lists are classified according to World, American, and English History, and Civics. Again, these are subdivided for travel, biography, and history. A miscellaneous list is kept handy for those books difficult to classify. Next, in each history class a list is taken, leaders selected, books obtained from the library, examined and commented on by oral reports in class and written criticisms. From this work the permanent list will be made. This ambitious project may require two school years to complete, but the History Department will not lack enthusiastic workers. Much interest is already aroused, as the large number of books seen on desks and tables testifies. The slogan of the working group is, “Know Your Public Library!” The Brackenridge spirit of enterprise may well be trusted to accomplish this end. Jary Coi.EGATE Hyde Mere ii ei,i. Barron Half.

The Commercial Department THE Commercial Department has always been second in number of pupils enrolled, the English Department only registering a larger number. The scholastic standing of the graduates of this department is equal to that of any other group in school. Eighteen courses are offered: two years each in shorthand, typewriting, and bookkeeping; one year in comptometry; one term each in Business English, arithmetic, geography, and law. Graduates of the stenographic division arc prepared, and often do enter upon their duties in a business office without further training. In the advanced course, students are assigned as stenographers and typists to teachers and school officials. Teachers cooperate with the instructor in making the assignments of definite training value, both from the standpoint of work well done and the development of habits of industry, neatness, reliability, and initiative. We believe that typewriting, at least, should be a part of the equipment of every high school graduate. In the Commercial Law course, the fundamental principles of law as applied to practical business transactions are taught to an increasing number of students each year. In Business English, our objective is to give the student a knowledge of terms, and that familiarity with the construction of business letters which will enable him to compose effective business letters. The first year of Bookkeeping gives the student a knowledge of those principles which he needs in order to attend to his personal business intelligently. The complete course fits him for a position as bookkeeper in the small business office. Childrkss Johnston Mki.ton Goodwin Lkwis Wharton A busy hour in the Comptometer class. Physical Education PHYSICAL Education became compulsory in Texas in 1932. The department of Physical Education in Bracken ridge strives to develop leadership, sportsmanship, personal and group responsibility, varied recreational interests, wise use of leisure time, and above all, physical efficiency. Boys may substitute K.O.T.C. or athletics for the regular physical education classes; consequently, there arc eight classes of boys while the girls fill twenty-four classes. The eight sections of boys’ physical education arc organized into squads, under squad leaders, and the squads rotate, each squad spending an equal number of days in playground, baseball, basketball, volley ball, and modified track. Boys taking athletics in place of physical education have an opportunity to participate in the so-called major sports. Bracken-ridge High School is a member of the Texas University Interscholastic League and has teams competing in league schedules in football, basketball, baseball, track and tennis. Teams are organized for local competition in golf and swimming. Those who have planned the girls’ physical education courses believe in the spirit of play for its own sake and in a program of activity for the largest number of students possible. Therefore, an interclass program is followed instead of inter-school competition. Captain ball was the first inter-class sport of the year 1932-33, and before the season was over it had become a favorite game. The spring program includes self-testing activities, rhythmical activities, mass games and inter-class or inter-dub games in indoor baseball. Training to make correct posture habitual is also an important part of the course. Ball Lehm berg Puckett Kell am Magruder Robertson Indulging in body building exercises. Johnson Scholz Ciiapa Richter Zoeller Williams Magruder SPRATT Three hundred students are enrolled 11: chorus classes. Fine Arts and Languages THE courses in music offered at Brackenridge are chorus, theory, harmony, and orchestra. Theory trains students in sight-singing and rhythm; harmony is more advanced, giving a foundation for composition. The Brackenridge Orchestra plays for various occasions, and is a frequent winner in contests. This department endeavors to discover and encourage talent in every phase of music. The Art Department includes in its courses sketching, design, poster work, soap sculpture, clay modeling, and craft work. The students in this department render valuable service to the school whenever decorations or posters for special occasions are needed. Also, selected art students spend many hours on the art work for La Retama. In Brackenridge, Spanish has the largest enrollment of any of the languages. The first two years stress conversation and give the necessary grammar, while the more advanced courses devote more time to reading and translation. Besides its cultural value, a knowledge of this language is a decided asset to those seeking business positions in San Antonio. Latin has much to offer for general culture in the study of Roman customs, law, and government. It lays a foundation for the study of other languages and increases the vocabulary. The course is made alive and interesting by various activities. Students realize both the practical and cultural value of German as they learn to read, write, speak, and sing the language. To have an understanding of German is to possess a key to the rich store of scientific knowledge and the great beauty of German literature. Science Department ABUNDANT opportunity is offered to Bracken-L ridge students who are interested in science. A year’s work is offered in chemistry, physics, physiology, botany, and biology. The laboratories are well equipped, and individual experimentation is encouraged. Chemistry offers splendid opportunity to acquire proficiency in laboratory technique. In addition, the experimental work gives the student many interesting surprises. In physics the students become familiar with the behavior of electricity, heat, and various forces. Experiments give the students a wealth of information on many phenomena. Botany teaches the student the wonders of the plant kingdom. Flowers are classified and displayed. (Considerable experimental work is done on seeds. A compound microscope is available to each student. In biology the student is introduced to the structure, behavior, adaptations, and life functions of living things. The interdependence exhibited among plant and animal life is stressed. Experiments with plants and animals benefit the student. Physiology students, boys, and girls in separate classes, secure an elementary knowledge, of the structure and function of human tissues and organs. The emphasis is placed on the maintenance of good health. Much time is devoted to physical and mental hygiene. Many students who become interested in high school science continue their study in this field and later secure excellent positions. There is no limit to the marvels of nature and science. The last quarter of a century has seen unprecedented applications of scientific facts to practical purposes. The future will undoubtedly be filled with even greater demands for scientific knowledge.

Senior Class BV ELECTING the officers of the class of 1933 in the spring term of 1932, the seniors followed a new procedure which enabled them to enter into their activities without delay. Under the able leadership of the sponsors, Miss Lydia Pagel, and Mr. II. R. Albert, who have been with the class from their freshman year, and Miss Elizabeth Koch and Major R. J. Reilly, added this year, the class surmounted the numerous obstacles which the year presented. Planning for the Senior Carvinal, the most momentous event of the year, was begun at an earlier date than usual. Many new features were inaugurated, including the Athletic Show which caused a great sensation, the participation of a duke and duchess from San Antonio Technical School and Thomas Jefferson School, and the decision to give ten per cent of the proceeds to institute a student’s loan fund. There were the usual carnival attractions such as the fish pond, the country store, the freak show, and the fortune-telling booth. A novel and classy Senior Carnival stage show was put on under the direction of Miss Jeston Dickey and Miss Mary Chambers. The concluding act of the show was the coronation ceremonies of the king and queen. These two royal personages were elected by the student body and hailed with great enthusiasm. The nucleus of the Carnival, as always, was formed by the generous contributions of the business firms of the city. Much interest was created when the subject of the attire for graduation was approached. After several heated discussions, a vote was taken by ballot. In order to insure parental interest in the subject, the ballot had to be signed by the student’s parents and the student himself before it became legal. The final vote revealed the preference for suits and dresses. In spite of economic conditions, the class enjoyed many functions, profiting financially and having much pleasure. An Armistice Dance given at Turner Hall on November 10 was the first social function of the senior’s calendar. The culmination of individual yearnings and mass enthusiasm was revealed at the Spring Prom on March 1 at which time the La Rctama Hall of Fame was announced. The dance featured a floor show of Brackenridge’s own talent and the music of the Ambassadors. Due to the objections to the traditional boisterous Freshie Day, a Senior Picnic was held at Brackenridge Park on April 4. The following month witnessed the fourth and last big social event of the class—a La Retama Dance at Turner Hall on May 5. Through the cooperation of the orchestra and officials of the hall, the class realized a sum which enabled the annual staff to complete and present to the senior class, the yearbook of 1933. Inverness Castle and the merry strain of the hag pipe make for happy hours in Scotland. 2 ND CLASS PASSENGERS ---JUNIORS CHILDRESS. MISS VIRGINIA. Sponsor MAY. JOHN President DELEMATER. DOROTHY.

FRANCES The Junior Class THE Junior Class of 1933 was sponsored by Miss Virginia Childress, Miss Effie Lewis, and Miss Miriam Spratt. In the latter part of May, 1932, a nominating committee was appointed to make up the ballot for the class officers, who were to serve throughout the year, 1932-33. Candidates were also nominated from the floor. This election is most important, for the success of the class depends almost entirely upon the ability of the officers and the aid of the sponsors. The following were elected: president, John May; vice- president, Dorothy Delematcr; secretary. Inez Wells; treasurer, Hunter Hancock; parliamentarian, Hen Levine; reporter, Lillian Goldstein; sergeants-at-arms, Lallier Fuller and Myrtle Glaeser. A few weeks later, three boys and three girls were chosen as senators to represent the Junior Class in the Student Council. Those chosen were Mae Trainer, Mary Elizabeth Dove, Thad Blount, Nathan Kleban, Robert Abshire, and Howard Schuctze. Ruby Culpepper was later elected second vice-president. It was her duty to prepare programs for the class meetings. While the main object of the juniors this year was to increase the regular attendance at meetings and to stimulate an interest that would carry the class successfully through Ihe senior year, several school projects were undertaken during the year. During the Christmas season the class assisted the clubs of Brackenridge in the Stevenson Christmas Party by bringing gifts for the orphans. In December the juniors sold tickets and sponsored a show held at the Empire Theatre. In order to raise money to pay for their pages in the Annual, the class voted to assess each member ten cents. Representatives were appointed in each advisory, and enough money was raised to pay the major part of the fifty dollar assessment to La Retama. Several juniors sold annuals, Inez Wells selling the greatest number from the Junior Class. In March, the juniors sponsored the sale of tickets to the Interscholastic League Literary Contest. The class president, John May, was one of the debaters in this contest. On the first of April, the Junior Class had an enjoyable picnic at Brackenridge Park. The most important project the Junior Class attempted was the adoption of a standard ring for Brackenridge. First, the juniors decided to adopt the design of the ring worn bv the seniors this year, with the one exception that white gold was to replace the black enamel for the base. Then the Sophomore Class adopted this same ring. Finally, the executives of the school, the class sponsors and officers, and the sophomores having chosen the same ring, it was declared the standard ring for Brackenridge High School. The Junior Class, under the leadership of the sponsors and officers, made a good showing in even-undertaking sponsored by them. 3rd class passengers ---SOPHOMORES A picture-book country come to life—such was our impression of Holland with its quaint people and funny windmills.

Mr. Gary welcomed us to Brackenridge and impressed upon us the responsibility of upholding the high standards and ideals of the school. Miss Moore explained to us the benefit and pleasures of attending all class meetings, and she urged us to become better acquainted with our classmates and school activities. Misses Ceciie Lawrence and Nell Beasley were chosen as our sponsors, and under their guidance we have endeavored to make our class a worthy addition to the school. A nominating committee selected candidates for class officers, and every sophomore participated in the election. The following officers were elected: George Bodenmiller, president; Marietta Reveley, vice-president; Dorothy Caruthers, secretary; Roy Vclinder, treasurer; John Sonnen and Winnie Witchcll, sergeants-at-arms; Helen Machemehl, reporter; Doris Hughes, parliamentarian; Valeska McAllister, historian; and Edwin Smith, censor. No poll tax was charged at the election as we had no definite social plans. A constitution committee composed our constitution, and our finances have also been in the charge of a committee. Our meetings have been mostly social affairs for the purpose of becoming acquainted with our class members. Much talent has been discovered both in our school and social affairs. During the spring we had a picnic at Brackenridge Park which was the most enjoyable of our affairs. Our class has not attempted any special project, but each member has supported all school activities individually. Due to the fact that we were not acquainted with our new routine, much time was spent in becoming familiar with it. Sophomores are interested in all lines of school activities: sports, dramatics, public speaking. R.O.T.G., club work, and academic subjects. To the sophomore class an important decision came. Ours has been the problem of deciding whether or not our class should adopt the ring that has been used by the two preceding classes. If we should do so, Brackenridge would have a standard ring to be recognized anywhere for the standards and ideals it represents. If we should fail to adopt it, the future classes would be confronted with the problem of choosing their ring: and our school would be without an emblem. We gave the matter careful consideration and decided to adopt the ring which makes it the standard ring of Brackenridge. All graduating classes hereafter will use this ring, and it will become the recognized emblem of our school. Our first year has been a happy one, and we have tried in every way to cooperate with the school. The faculty has been exceedingly considerate toward us and has tried to lead us into the most beneficial channels. Throughout our high school career we shall endeavor to uphold the ideals and standards of Brackenridge.

Side Trips Often the little jaunts off the main course are the most fascinating parts of a trip. Much of the thrill of the high school journey comes from the fun of organizations and special subjects. Through these side-trips the students begin to appreciate real companions, to develop the spirit of cooperation, and to discover, frequently, in what direction their talents run.

HOPING to emulate the record of the 1932 Braekcnridge debate teams which won state championship, fifty-one debaters reported to the debate coach, Mr. E. C. Barksdale, in September. After an intensive series of round-robin debates on the Intel-scholastic League subject, “Resolved, that at least one-half of all state and local revenue in Texas should be derived from sources other than taxes on tangible property,” the students engaged in two elimination contests. The faculty committee of judges selected the following students for the debate squad: Lizette Ellev, Xelda Plantowsky, Elizabeth Alford, Elizabeth Cochrane, Helen Rein hard, Margaret Smith, Julia Gulley. Nathan Kleban, Gerdes Isenhower, John May, and Gabe Cazell. From these the school’s representatives in debate were chosen by Mr. Barksdale. Speech Arts Department Declamation and Extempore Speaking THE Department of Speech of Brackenridge High School has grown from a small nucleus of students, requiring only one instructor, to an enrollment necessitating the services of three teachers. The Inter-scholastic League contests ai’e coached by the teachers. Mrs. Bessie Lee Dickey Roselle coaches the extemporaneous speakers, Miss Jeston Dickey the one-act play and the declaimei’s, and Mr. E. C. Barksdale is responsible for the debaters. The Public Speaking Department aims to fit the student to fill his niche in life effectively by giving him experience in the organization and delivery of original speeches. Thus he learns to think clearly and logically. Each year the department participates in many inter-school competitions in speaking. These contests further the influence of the department, give the students experience, and prepare the contestants for the Interscholastic League events. Last year the school was represented by Robert Francis and Anna Hill in declamation, while Frank Rosson and Norine Finnigan were the extemporaneous speakers. Frank Rosson was victorious throughout the season and won the state cup in extemporaneous speaking. This year James Voss and Janet Fulcher, extempore speakers, and Frank Rosson and Jo Ann Lair, dcclaimers, mot Jefferson in the annual contest on March 31. Brackenridge won both the city and the district championship in boy’s and girl’s extemporaneous speaking and hov’s declamation.

FINNIGAN ARNO FRANKE WARFIELD SOUTH MILLS Speech Arts Department Dramatics THE aim of the Dramatic Department is to give to each member a polish in diction, to remove all traces of self-consciousness, and to offer him a new field of enjoyment. The department has an unusual amount of equipment available. It has over a thousand plays in its library, several hundred costumes in its wardrobe, a large stage and auditorium at its disposal, and enough different sets of scenery to present any play with its proper setting. The department has not failed to take advantage of its preparedness, for its work has made it known throughout the entire state. The elaborate assemblies staged at Brackenridge are under the supervision of the dramatic department. Plays for clubs, luncheons, and other outside activities are requested of this organization. Each student of this course is allowed the privilege of at least one public performance. In class each student has the opportunity of taking part in one play a week, directed by the students themselves. In the all-star east this year, Walter Warfield was the double of the lead and Elbert Lee South was the leading second substitute. Two outstanding girl actors were Nclva .M ills and Gladys Franke. Mildred Arno of last year’s state play cast assisted Miss Jeston Dickey, the dramatic director of Brackenridge, in all phases of dramatic work. “The Poet's Well,” a phantasy of “The Purple Parade.’ Speech Arts Department Dramatics An all-star east of six Brackenridge boys presented “Allison’s Lad” a one-act play in district competition with six other high schools at the Tech auditorium April 1. The east included: Jack Smith, Colonel Strickland; John Allen, Captain Bowyer; Don Vilven, Lieutenant Goring; Herman Geyer, Prank Hopton; Harold Suggs, Tom Winwood; and William Arlitt, Colonel Drummond. Out of the six plays presented at the district meet three were chosen by the judges to be given in the finals that night. These were, New Braunfels’ “Neighbors”; Jefferson’s “Jazz and Minuet”; and Brackenridge’s “Allison’s Lad”. The Jefferson one-act play was chosen as the best and was therefore eligible to enter the regional meet. The Brackenridge cast had the distinction of carrying away the highest honors in individual acting. Jack Smith was chosen as the best boy actor in the district, and Harold Suggs was chosen as second best boy actor. Last year “The Hour Glass,” one-act play given by Brackenridge students, was chosen as the best play presented by any high school in Texas. Three Brackenridge students at that time, Gordon Tubbs, Mildred Arno, and Arthur Higgins were selected by judges for the state all-star east. Arthur Higgins was given the Samuel French Medal as a reward for being the best senior school actor in Texas. ALLEN SMITH ARLITT VILVEN SUGGS GEYER The crucial point in Allison's Lad,” Tournament Entry. Department of Music Tub music department offers three courses. Theory and harmony are full-time courses which give one college credit, and chorus is a half-time course which gives one-half of a high school credit. Theory deals mostly with sight-singing and rhythm. For a person who is interested in the fundamentals of music it is most interesting. Theory 1 deals with the major and Theory II, which is a second term course, takes up the minor. Harmony is a more advanced course. It is difficult unless the students have had previous instruction in music. In Harmony I the students learn to harmonize in all the major keys. The second term Harmony II teaches them to harmonize in the minor. This is a good foundation for anyone interested in composition. Chorus is what the word implies, plus a general knowledge of music. The course strives to create an interest in good music through the use of the victrola and discussions of current musical events. The radio gives the student the privilege of hearing some of the world’s greatest artists. The music department furnishes musical numbers for programs in the school and represents the school in different clubs in the city. At the State Music Meet held in Belton this year, Lenora Tubbs, soprano, was judged the best vocal entry. Trumpet scene from the Band Bent fit Musical Revue. WIRTH TREVINO WARFIELD WATERS TIBBS JOHNSON Department of Music The orchestra under the experienced guidance of Mr. Otto Zoeller, offers one of the outstanding courses in Brackenridge. It is well-known in San Antonio for its excellent performances on many and varied occasions. During the past year the combined orchestra of Thomas Jefferson and Brackenridge High Schools appeared in San Antonio on numerous occasions, including: Thomas Jefferson High School open house; Kiwanis Club luncheon; accompaniment to the operetta “When Carrie Comes to College” presented at Thomas Jefferson and for ihe Woman’s Club: a group of selections for Brackenridge High Fathers’ Night; the official dedication at Thomas Jefferson High School, on which occasion a most gracious compliment was given to the orchestra by the honorable ex-Govemor Ross Sterling; Interscholastic Public Speaking Contest and the Rotary Club at Jefferson. The orchestra played several selections from “The Patsey” presented at Thomas Jefferson. At the close of the school year 1932, the combined orchestra played for the graduation exercises of both Brackenridge and Jefferson High Schools. On April 16th twenty selected players from the Brackenridge orchestra won the 1932 Interscholastic Music Contest at Baylor College, Belton, for the second successive year. On March 17, 1933, a ten act Musical Review was given to obtain money to buy uniforms for the band and to pay the expenses of the orchestra contestants.

Editor WEIKEL, Sports Editor ELLIOT, Ex. Editor MILLER, Sponsor PhE TIMES was established in 1017 under the sponsorship of Miss Alice Stone with Harold Seherwitz, now sports editor of The Light, as the first editor. The Times has won many honors in all phases of newspaper work. In 1023 it was for the first time judged the best edited paper in Texas. That year the paper had two staffs, alternating each week. The editors for the winning publication were Juanima Wells and Theodore Etheridge. In 1027 it was judged the best edited newspaper in Texas by the Texas High School Press Association. William Kay Miller was the editor and Miss Edith Fox the sponsor. In 1031 it was again judged the best high school newspaper in Texas with Charles Loringas editor and Miss Mary Elizabeth Miller as sponsor. This year one of the most coveted of honors came to The Times when it was ranked as a Medalist by the Columbia Press Association. This year The Times ranked third in the annual contest of the Texas High School Press Association at Helton. Among other contests entered this year were National Scholastic Press Association, and the Interscholastic League Press Conference. In the Quill and Scroll, Mildred Hill, editor, and Edwin Phillips won honorable mentions in the editorial and news writing contests respectively.

The staff sponsored a campaign for subscriptions in September. Teams were organized in two classes, junior and senior, and a banner was awarded to the senior class for securing the most subscribers. Ida Nayfach, a junior who gained the most subscriptions, was awarded a box of Bracken ridge stationery with her name engraved on it. A news stand was also established at which the papers were sold at five cents a copy. Each year jitney week is sponsored by The Times. During this week any one subscribing receives the paper for the last six weeks of the term for five cents. Some changes were made in the paper by the 1933 staff, several new columns being established on the second page. These were The Cuckoo’s Nest, The Moving Finger, and An Eagle Soars. The Hour Glass was changed to an open forum. A few other minor changes were also made. Each year an all-publication banquet is sponsored by lleuben und Drueben, La Retama, or The Times. Last year the banquet held at Artists’ Inn was under the sponsorship of lleuben und Drueben. At this annual affair the staffs for the three publications are announced for the coming year.

Editor NUESSLE, Club Editor WALSH. Sr. Editor HUMAN, Cadet Editor PACEY, Jr. Editor WALKER, Soph. Editor SCHOLZ, Sponsor IX THE spring of 1932 plans wore laid for a La Retaina tour of the world. Mindful of the fact that the annual has become a tradition in Bracken-ridge and has repeatedly won the highest awards in the National Scholastic Press Association, the crew of 1933 started out with high hopes for a most delightful and successful journey. Fall brought such discouraging conditions and obstacles to overcome, however, that rumors arose that there would be no annual. The seniors vigorously protested at this and, after discussing the matter in a mass assembly, pledged their loyal support and demanded La Retama be continued. Many new plans and features were put forth to help the annual in every respect. The price on pictures, pages for clubs, and the annual itself were lowered. There was more advertising than ever before in form of posters, personal letters, and notices in daily bulletins. Incentives were offered to salesmen such as free annuals, banquets to winning teams, and name of winner engraved on a silver cup. Service cards were given to speakers who boosted the year book. The club having the largest percentage of pictures in the club section was credited five dollars toward payment of their page. The Clios reached the hundred per cent mark first and won this contest.

La Retama The circulation campaign was launched October 17. To invite competition two loving cups were bought by the staff. Each year on one of these there will be engraved the name of the student selling the most annuals, and on the other the name of the winner in the ad solicitor’s contest. Of the thirty salesmen, three made enviable records. John Allen having sold the most, received a free annual and had his name engraved on one of the cups. Inez Wells and Stanley Schmidt were second and third, respectively. In the contest for the ad solicitors, Stanley Schmidt brought in over a hundred dollars worth of ads, and was therefore acclaimed advertising manager and had his name placed on the other trophy. We believe that our journey has been all the more intriguing because of the hardships endured and the dangers averted. With a crew congenial in the highest degree, an interested and loyal student body, and conducted by sponsors who. as experienced seamen, were able to drive on over the uncharted seas of every adventure, it is small wonder that the journey has been happily completed. The staff presents you with a souvenir of your travels—the 1933 edition of La Retama. Enjoy it, and God-speed on your future journey! SIMON. Business Mgr. BUSSELL. Art Committee SCHMIDT.

Hueben Und Drueben SCHMIDT, Editor HOENTSCH, Adv. Mgr. GARMS, Business Mgr. CARUTHERS, Cir. Mgr KELBERLAU, Sports Editor RICHTER, Sponsor THE theme of our Annual this year is travel. The name of our German paper “Hueben und Drucben” suggests extensive travel. In many of our articles, we have made journeys to other countries, and under the guiding hand of Miss Leilet Richter, “Hueben und Drueben” has traveled even further, reaching new goals and higher ideals. We publish this paper to give the German students an opportunity for written expression on subjects they are interested in, and to enable them to acquaint themselves with the background of the language they study, through its literature, art, history, and science. Heretofore, the work on “Hueben und Drueben” was outside work, but this year a special period has been assigned for the staff, thus making the project a journalistic undertaking. The efforts of the students are not only recognized by friends in the state and nation, but also by the National Honor Society of High School Journalism. The staff is proud of subscribers in Germany. The past year, the staff was honored by receiving several copies of “Westcrmanns Monatshefte”, a German periodical recognized throughout the world for its high type of articles on literature and art. This magazine was a gift from the Karl Schurz Foundation, an organization fostering understanding and good will between Germany and the United States.

Staff and Medalmen UNDER the leadership of Major B. J. Reilly, the Bracken ridge High School Cadet Corps has traveled far and won many honors. Several changes were made in the Cadet Corps by Colonel Connolly, P.M.S. and T. of San Antonio High Schools, who inspects the B.H.S. Battalion the second Friday of each month. By these monthly inspections Colonel Connolly prepares the Battalion for the Federal Inspection to be given later by Colonel Castle. Brack-enridge High School Cadets are distinguished from other cadets by the purple and white swastika on their left sleeve. The red star denotes that the cadet comes from a school with an Honor School Rating given by the War Department. Out of the Cadet Corps has come a club known as the Medalmen. This club is unique because only those having had the honor of being decorated with the much coveted American Legion Medal can hold membership in this club.

To qualify, a girl must have a scholastic average between C and B, and be of excellent character, loyal, courteous, and pleasant. This club sponsors the R.O.T.C. and represents Brack-enridge in military affairs. The club consists of a major sponsor, four lieutenants on the staff, a captain and three lieutenants in the band, and a captain and three lieutenants in each of the four companies, A, B. ( and I). The Rifle Team consists of seven sponsors who win their places by the highest score in marksmanship. The team was organized to teach tin-safe and accurate handling of the rifle and to encourage a fine, wholesome sport. This spring the sponsors substituted rifle practice for physical education. The team, affiliated with the National Rifle Association, is under the direction of Major B. J. Reilly. Lindsey Allen Kelly Triesch FrITSCII Zo ICLLER Band Captain.......... First Lieutenant..

Advancement in literature was its purpose. The plan of dividing the meetings into four sessions: business, social, literary, and field trips, was adopted last year as introduced by the sponsor, Mrs. L. M. Du Pree, and is still carried out. Refreshments are served at each meeting by committees appointed at a previous meeting. New members arc elected into the club at the beginning of each fall term and are initiated during initiation week. Officers are elected each semester and may serve for two terms. The club dues are fifty cents a term. Each of the members is required to make one poster a year, and, at the end of the year, a prize is given to the member designing and creating the most beautiful poster. Three faculty members are chosen to act as the judges. The installation banquet was held last year at the Original Mexican Restaurant, and each incoming officer was presented with a gift symbolizing her office. This year the installation luncheon, followed by bunco and bridge, was held at the Southland Cafe. Other social functions included a wiener roast, a picnic, an Olympic contest, and the annual Faculty Tea. This year the idea of a world tour was carried out at this tea. The guests “traveled” from one room to another. Each room was decorated to represent a different country and showed its dress and customs. Armenia Jones, Pres. Margaret Vance. Vice-Pres.

The membership, based on scholarship, is limited to thirty regular members. In the spring ten honorary members known as graces” are elected who are initiated at the Rose Day Pageant. Although the purpose of the organization is to further interest in the subject of history, the members have taken part in inter-dub declamation and debate. In 1921, when the school library was inadequate, the club chose the collecting of a reference library for the project of the year. About two hundred volumes were secured which were used by history classes of those days. The club librarian assists in research for debates, and aids the uninitiated in the use of the library. The Clio creed emphasizes appreciation of the efforts and interests of the advisers. In demonstration of their appreciation, folders explaining the origin of the historical holidays are distributed to the advisers, and the club parliamentarian sends out issues of a simplified course in parliamentary practice. Before the nation-wide sale of poppies was instituted, the Clios started their custom of distributing poppies to the faculty every Armistice Day. A Rose Day festival is given each May Day in honor of the faculty. The creative work for this pageant forms the club's spring program. Betty Kleyboecker. Pres. Bennie Perry, Vicc-Pres.

Fifty was the limit at first, but now fifteen associate “short story writers and storytellers” have been added to the club roster. With these sixty-five girls the club has striven for pure Americanism, closer fellowship, better command of English, trained leadership, correct parliamentary usage, and greater school spirit in supporting the faculty, athletics, class activities, and the school paper. The Homecoming was given this spring for the purpose of gathering all old members. The girls also had their annual Story-telling Festival in which medals were awarded for the best English work. For the best Texas legend, the Hertzberg Texas Gold Star was given. Capurro awarded the Gold Bug Medal for the best senior poem and Bettencourt gave a medal for the best oral story. Mrs. Rector, a loyal friend, and mother of a former member, supplied a medal for the best original story by a senior. Other medals were bought by the club. Each year the group has carried on certain activities. The Faculty Tea, in which the brides of the school were the honored guests, was given in the school cafeteria. A short program was arranged to fit the occasion. The organization has tried to make the initiation of the new members as attractive and entertaining as possible each year. This year, as before, the theme of Edgar Allen Poe’s “Gold Bug” was carried out throughout the initiation.

They carried cardboard guns and swords. They were also compelled to know the pass-word, the club flower, and the club yell. The feeding of the “Pirate’s Skeleton” was one of the many pranks played on the initiates. To complete the occasion, a large wiener roast was given at Roosevelt Park where the new girls were heartily welcomed into the club. Last year the organization proved a success. The group enjoyed many good times at very little expense, ending the year with all debts paid. The first social of the year was given at the home of the president, Miss Beverly Druce, who was probably the most responsible for the great success of the year. Later in the term a treasure hunt was given in which the club theme was carried out. Miss Alyce Wimberly, the club sponsor, entertained the girls with a beautiful tea at her home. Throughout the year members of the club gave parties for the girls. This year the girls’ hopes have been equally as high as last year. With the help of the sponsor, Miss Wimberly, and the careful planning of the treasurer, Katherine Norton, the club has achieved success in its aim. Besides the regular activities, several socials were enjoyed. Although the girls desired to reach a high goal in finance, they still believe in the club’s motto: “Knowledge is greater than wealth”.

At the present time the club is fortunate to have as its co-sponsors Mrs. Marguerite King Plummer and Mrs. Mattie Mitchell. Although the first year the troop had patrol leaders, the following year Willie Zelle McNair was elected the first president. The Eagle Troop is affiliated with the National Organization of Girl Scouts of America, and is governed by the same rules and regulations. The national slogan is “Do A Good Turn Daily”, and the motto is “Be Prepared”. The Eagle Troop slogan is “We Ely High”. The colors are purple and gold. Every year the Eagle Troop has a banquet in honor of the seniors and to inaugurate new officers of the coining vear. Last year this banquet was given at Artists’ Inn. Girl Scout activities center about three main interests: home, health, and country. Not only are girls trained in woodcraft and civic duty, but such subjects as needlework. the care of children, housekeeping, and nursing are studied. By combining every-day home routine and healthful outdoor activities a Girl Scout develops usefulness and happiness. Health, character, and culture are closely connected in Scout Work. After completing the course in scouting and demonstrating for three years her ability to uphold Girl Scout standards, a Girl Scout is given the Golden Eaglet award, the highest honor a Girl Scout can achieve.

The club, a branch of the Y. W. C. A., tries to help each girl develop a well rounded character. The Girl Reserve Ring, a token to be cherished by all, is presented at the Ring Banquet for outstanding service and adherence to the code. All Girl Reserves of the city meet at the Christmas Program at the Y. W. C. A. The interesting events of the past year were: Girls’ Week, during which the Girl Reserves took an active part in the events connected therewith; Mother-and-Daughtcr Banquet, at which the mother-and-daughter relation was particularly emphasized; Doughnut Week, when all the Girl Reserves of the city helped the Y. W. C. A. sell doughnuts to defray expenses connected with the Girl Reserve Work; and Formal Initiation at the Y. W.C. A., a beautiful ceremony never to be forgotten by the Girl Reserves. This year the Girl Reserves have Miss Emma Frey and Miss Zollie Hale as cosponsors. The girls are anticipating many good times and interesting programs. Their plans include a study of what Girl Reserve Clubs are doing in other countries, guidance talks along vocational lines by leading citizens, a study of the lives of some of our leading American women, examining good books to read during our leisure time, plenty of jolly, friendly parties and outings together. These are to be supplemented with various types of service work for the school and the community. Flo Anderson, Sponsor Hazel Grimm, Pres. Doris Burrows, 5ec'y Betty Kleyboecker, T reas.

The initial objective of the organization was threefold: first, to provide a medium for the expression of artistic talent; second, to encourage and direct the special abilities and interests of its members; and third, to weld this into an organized force. To achieve this end many and varied opportunities were given to its members. One of these was the requirement made of new members. At the initiation ceremony, each initiate must furnish one number on a program given for the entertainment of the older members. Songs, dances, readings and piano selections are examples of the talents most often displayed. Unlike other clubs, the Fine Arts Club seeks to use its talent to give pleasure and educational entertainment to other organizations. Upon request, programs have been presented for other clubs, for assemblies, advisories and P.T.A. functions. Indirectly. this work develops initiative and responsibility for those participating, and is considered a worth-while undertaking. The Booking Agency Department of the club directs this activity. The club members receive service cards after having appeared on five such programs. The club had on its roster members of outstanding talent, three of whom received honors in their work in the R.K.O. Opportunity Review. Rowena Saltonstall was the winner from Texas, and Thelma Flowers and Katherin Kimner each won scholarships to the Xed Weyburn School of Dancing.

These associate members are called Attaches, and aside from acting as escorts for the girls at their social affairs, they, too, seek to further all aims and purposes of the club. The most ambitious project of the two units last spring was the musical revue called “The Footlight Follies”. Directed by Rowena Saltonstall, a stage show was presented that was acclaimed to be one of the most outstanding events on the calendar of Brackenridge. Some of the attractive features were “The Red Gun Parade”, “The Sweetheart Act”, and “The Parade of the Stars”. Pretentious preparations were made and the cast consisted of one hundred or more students. Flic profits from the entertainment are to be used to buy some worthy property for the school. One of the most enjoyable affairs of this year was the Valentine Party. One end of the club-room was converted into a stage and a delightful program was presented. This was followed by dancing, and the serving of beautifully prepared refreshments. Valentine favors were given to each member, and appropriate decorations helped to make an altogether festive affair. The last social affair will take place in April and will be in the nature of a farewell party for the senior members and the Attaches. Together, as loyal members of the F.A.C., they will celebrate the passing of another happy year at Brackenridge. Major B. J. Rfjlly. Sponsor James Roberts. Pres. Jack Smith, Vicc-Prcs.

Dullnig Albert Grimm Bob Hucker Sheldon Katz Ross Meador Aubrey Nathan Sam Rayburn Wallace Silver Fred Witt a Officers’ Club THE Officer’s Club, organized during the latter part of the fall term is perhaps the newest club on the campus. Previously, there has been no provision for promoting fellowship and intimate acquaintance among the R.O.T.C. officers. The only companionship they had was through other clubs and organizations and the formal meeting on review days. This is entirely inadequate for promoting cooperation and pleasure. Therefore the Officers’ Club of the R.O.T.C. Battalion of Bracken ridge was formed. The Officers’ Club, as may be gleaned from the preceding paragraph, was organized almost wholly to promote the best interests of the R.O.T.C1. Its aim is to create a feeling of friendly geniality among all officers from the band and honor company down through all the companies. The complete goal of the Officers’ Club, however, is not so abstract as this. It also takes in the instruction of the multitude of mechanical proceedings of both personal conduct and conduct of massed drill in the companies. Par from limiting itself to the necessary routine of business in a club whose purpose is such as stated, the Officers’ Club immediately launched into plans for a gala dance to be held on February 10th, 1033. With the officers of the Bracken ridge unit of the R.O.T.C. as its propelling and sustaining force, the Bracken ridge Officers’ Club, sponsored by Major Reilly, is without doubt destined to make its name known for social informality, gay times, business integrity, and success.

This club stresses the study of Latin, presenting it in an interesting manner, and endeavoring to promote and cultivate a spirit ot’ friendship among the students of Latin. The club also strives to bring about a widened and enthusiastic activity in scholastic matters. Its motto “Non progredi est regredi’’ means “Not to progress is to regress’ There are several social gatherings during the year, the origin of which are traditional. The most elaborate of these is the “Saturnalia” held in December a week before Christmas. On this colorful occasion the guests appear in Roman costume and follow ancient customs in presenting an interesting and educational program. An invocation to Jupiter, the crowning of “Rex Familiac”, the Latin songs, and the exchange of gifts are outstanding features of the banquet program. Problems of vital interest to the Latin students are discussed in the meetings, which are held once a month. The programs are very interesting, consisting of subjects related to Latin study or Roman life, including archaeology, mythology, and art. This club gives to every interested student an opportunity to use bis knowledge in other ways than in recitation. Attention is also given to music and dramatics. Cnder the able leadership of Mrs. Caine, the club has experienced many successful years and at the present time is keeping up its old standards. Norine Finigan, Pres. John Allen, Vice-Pres.

M. Nichols The Student Council THE Bracken ridge High School Student Council, formerly Congress, is the student governmental body of Bracken ridge. It was founded in 1018 by Mr. William Cory. Former sponsors have been Miss Lewis, Mr. Shea, Miss Hale, Miss Ellett, Miss Higgins, Miss Murray, Miss Fox, and Mr. Kay. Miss Colegate and Miss Wharton are the present sponsors. This club fills the need of the school for some organization to which the various other clubs can submit their important problems for discussion. Therefore, assisting clubs in any project of interest to the school has been the major policy and aim of the Student Council. The Student Council is composed of eighteen senators, six from each of the three classes, sophomore, junior, and senior, and sixty-four representatives, one elected by each advisory. These students, as representatives of the interests of the school, meet every first and third Monday to discuss the problems which have been presented to them. Beginning with the second term the hour of the meetings was changed from the seventh to the fifth period. This is the only representative body in the school. The activities of this club are varied. The Student Council sponsors school banking. Our Thrift Committee aids by distributing the banking banners to the respective banner rooms weekly. The Lost and Found Department., operated by the Council under the supervision of Miss Higgins, assists in returning lost articles to the students and faculty. The Student Council sponsored the Times’ drive to secure more subscriptions.

O. Wallace Katherine Walsh Madison Wilson Marilynn Zirkel The Student Council By a change in its constitution, the Student Council is now composed of one body which includes both senators and representatives and has only one set of officers, while before two sets of officers were elected. The last election of the four major officers was school-wide. Any student was eligible for a nomination. With some of the student leaders of the school in the running, a school-wide interest was aroused. An assembly was held to boost the election, and the Student Council was the center of attention at that time. At the opening of the second term the Council put on an assembly for the freshmen to awaken in them the Brackenridge school spirit. In tin spring the Student Council sponsors a (Mean-up Campaign which is school-wide. A prize is offered to the advisory having the cleanest room. This campaign is to encourage the students to keep the classrooms, halls, and school grounds clean. The Information Bureau consists of six students, one of whom is stationed in the lower halls during each period of the day. These Councilmen give information to students and visitors of the school. The Student Council hopes in the future to find a suitable place and establish a central bulletin board for all posters of clubs and individuals. This will be a great aid to the student body and faculty. Also, they hope to take charge of the sale of school colors during each sport season. Mrs. Lydia Magrudf.r, Sponsor Ethel Paschall, Pres.

The club’s purpose is to promote the intellectual welfare of the members by a study of literature. This year delightful programs were given during which the literature of well-known American short-story writers was studied. An extensive library circulated among the members, affording much knowledge and pleasure. Among the social affairs of the club were a picnic for the freshmen, a tea at the San Antonio College of Music, and a farewell party for the seniors. The most important activity which the club undertakes is sponsoring an annual Christmas party for the orphans of San Antonio. This year rummage, candy, and paper sales were held to raise part of the funds to entertain the children. The party was held in the Brackenridge auditorium this year with the members of the various I bracken ridge clubs assisting in distributing to the children presents and bags of fruit, candy, and nuts. They were entertained with a short clever program including young students from the Bonner Dancing Studio. The little guests received a great thrill when Mr. Santa Claus, Richard Riestenberg, dashed down from the North Pole bringing with him Christmas cheer and Mrs. Santa Claus, Ethel Paschall. The children had great fun in showing one another their toys. Judging from several opinions, including those of the faculty, the entertainment was a great success. Alfred Lehmbf.rg.

With such a creed as this, the club has carried on. ever striving to be an outstanding group in Brackcnridge High School. The social calendar for the year was filled with such events as banquets, entertainments by other clubs, social gatherings, and initiations twice a year which are always followed by wiener roasts. An important event on the club’s calendar this year was the annual football game with the B.D.S., an old rival, which ended in a tie, the score being 0-0. Not only are the Reagans competent in football, but in other sports such as basketball, baseball, and track. The 1931 football and basketball teams finished their respective seasons as intramural champions. The track team, captained by Bill Juraschek. monopolized the B.I).S. track event. In all branches of intramural competition this club has come off the field of battle with a goodly share of the spoils. In 1930 two Reagans, Frank Knapp and Jesse Villarreal, won the state championship and were placed second in a national meet held at Little Rock, Arkansas. The yearly debate between the Reagans and the B.D.S., which usually is watched with inuch interest by the student body, did not materialize due to the fact that the B. 1). S. was engaged in other debates at the scheduled time. Agnes James, Sponsor Hester Hill, Pres. Paulita Benkf.ndorfer. Vice-Prcs. Lois May Riednf.r, 5ec’} Mary Louise Weyman, T reas.

It was organized in 1 HI7 for the purpose of encouraging good literature. Miss Agnes James and Miss Irene Henderson are the present sponsors. The Laniers consist of fifty members and twelve “arrows”, or uninitiated members. To be eligible for membership a girl must have a high scholastic record and good moral standing, as the club has as one of its aims encouragement in character building. The most important project that the Laniers sponsor each year is National Book Week. This year the Wolff and Marx Company, Joske Brothers, and the Naylor Printing Company loaned the organization popular books to use in an exhibit in the main corridor. Club members made small exhibits in the library to illustrate the types of books from different countries. One of the most important exhibits was a display of rare old books. Each Lanier made a poster about books. These postei s were placed in every available spot in school to remind the students of Book Week. As customary, a cash prize was awarded to the student who made the best poster. This year the prize was won by Henrietta Hererra. A contest was held to secure a design fora book plate for library books. Paul Maurice Vilcog’s drawing was chosen. The Laniers gave the school this book plate and two thousand impressions.

This year three baskets of food were taken to poor and needy families. Each year the Laniers have what is known as the 11 Boyless Prom.99 At this affair half of the members dress up as boys and escort their dates to the dance. Prizes were awarded to the handsomest boy, Billie Huffmeyer, and the cutest couple, Theda Hummel and Betty Siedeman. Paulita Benkcndorfer and Doris Burrows wore the most original costumes. The prize offered for the most original stunt was won by Ida Nayfach and An nabelle IcTavish. The Saint Patrick’s Day banquet is the most outstanding social event on the calendar. It is a formal affair and is usually held in one of the larger hotels. To be selected as toastmistress for this affair is one of the highest honors that can be bestowed on a Lanier. The identity of the toastmistress is always kept secret ui.til the guests are seated. Each year a new theme is selected around which table decorations and the toasts are centered. Miss Viola Moore, dean, the ex-sponsors, the present sponsors, and the alumnae are the honored guests. Another gala event is the tea held during the latter part of May for the purpose of installing the new officers. The tea is under the direction of the juniors and sophomores and is in honor of the seniors. Elizabeth Anne Hall. Pres. D. M. Nichols, Sec’y-Treas. Joe Bryant Arthur Bouquet C. F.

To obtain membership in the Math Club, a student must be interested in mathematics and be making passing grades in all his studies. Mrs. Jessie Abbott has been sponsor of the club since it was organized. The members of the club recently elected Miss Stella Smith to assist her. She was chosen as co-sponsor because of her outstanding interest in mathematics and for her leadership and influence among the students of Brackenridge. The Math Club holds its meetings in room 222 on the first and third Wednesday of each month. At each meeting of the club, after the business is completed, an interesting program is presented to the members. These programs are of particular interest to students interested in math as they deal with the important mathematical questions of the day. This year the Math Club entered the Housewives’ Cooperative Campaign, a label saving contest to stimulate trade, and won third place. The club was awarded five dollars in cash, the third place prize for the two weeks contest closing December 10, 1932. Although the Math Club is a departmental club, it has its social affairs. The club holds its initiation of new members each term and has other parties and entertainments through the year, among which are their Christmas party and a party given in honor of the departing seniors.

Membership is restricted to students of good scholarship who understand German. Its chief business activity is the editing of a German paper “Hueben und Drucben’ , the first newspaper published by German pupils in Texas and the first of its kind in America to be admitted to the Quill and Scroll. In keeping with the club's high ideals, a play was given in remembrance of the one hundredth anniversary of Goethe’s death. Besides the play there were tableaus from Faust preceded by a prologue. An address on Goethe and musical numbers with the text from Goethe followed. Then the play by Goethe “Die Laune des Verliebtcn” was presented. The club often has a social meeting, called Kaffeeklatsch, at which German plays and songs are enjoyed. It has educational programs on German legends, customs, art, music, history, and travels. These gatherings, conducted in German, help to make the class work easier. Recently the club bought a piano from the proceeds of plays given by members. This helps in the programs at the regular meetings. In January the schools principal, Mr. Enos Gary, treated the members of the club to an insight into his experiences at the University of Texas.

The organization is composed of students with no grade lower than C, interested in Commercial work, and who are taking, or have completed, at least three commercial subjects. For the past two terms, 1032 and 1033, the Commercial Club students have undertaken various projects which have greatly added to the club’s achievements. It has been the custom since the organization began, for its members to supervise the planting of flowers on the school campus. Since the Commercial Club’s flower is the radiance rose, the club has planted several beds of roses about the school, and this year added two more beds for the beautification of the school’s grounds. During 1931 Miss Irma Grace Johnston was the only sponsor of the Commercial Club, but a very efficient one. In the fall, 1932, Mrs. Zora Melton offered her services as co-sponsor. With her ambitions and enthusiasm for the club’s success, Mrs. Melton has shown that she will be an excellent leader. The two principal socials given by the Commercial Club this year, were the birthday party, during the fall, and the annual alumnae banquet, the first Thursday in May. The banquet is always a large affair with many old members present. It permits the Commercial Club students, both old and new, to exchange ideas and become acquainted. E. C.

For the past few years the soceity has profited from, and enjoyed the able, cheerful guidance of Mr. E. C. Barksdale. The object of this society is to promote public speaking, to develop debate as an art and an amusement, and to furnish an activity for the boys of Brackenridge. The B.D.S. members put forth their best effort to make the Third Annual Girls Inter-Society Debate Tournament a success. The object of this tournament is to discover promising material for the Interscholastic Debate Teams. The club awarded the winning team a beautiful silver loving cup donated through the courtesy of the Hertzberg Jewelry Company. The annual debate with the Reagan Debating Society for the inter-club title resulted in a victory for the B.D.S. The members of the society have been able to do their bit for Brackenridge in the speaking field. The personnel of the interscholastic debate team, the school extempore speaker, and the declaimer in the boys’ division were all members of the B.D.S. Not all of the activities of the society have been confined to waging wordy wars. Very elaborate initiation ceremonies were conducted early in the first semester. In -the annual football game between the Reagans and the B.D.S., the B.D.S. was winner. Ollie Stratton. Sponsor Lois May Riedner. Pres. Norine Finigan. Vice-Pres. Mary Elizabeth Ellis.

Their passport has been the motto of the Olympics of 1932, “Not the victory but the fight counts”. The members of the cruise were selected from the students who have done exceptional work in English. After nomination by their present English teacher, the recommendation of two other teachers, and the production of an orginal piece of work, they were permitted to enjoy this year's travels. Lois May Riedner has been the leading guide. Before the whistle for departure sounded, an inventory was made of the talents of the members in order that the leading artists in the field of instrumental music, singing, drawing, dancing, reading, acting, and writing might furnish entertainment en-route. The first expedition led the “Literary Scavengers” through exotic lands to find a hair from “The Black Cat”, a feather from the “Waterfowl”, and other intri guing souvenirs. On a side trip the tourists attended the “Olympic Games” of literary skill, to witness the celebration of the fourth Olympiad of their organization. The banquet tables were arranged in the form of a stadium decorated with flags of the nations and the Olympic colors. Gold hurdles and goal posts, figures of purple and white athletes, and the Torch and Victory Ceremony suggested tests of creative ability and effort, wherein were set a new record.

Impersonations of Yule-time advertisements revealed the talent of Milburn Beitel, John May, Gerdes Isenhowcr, Jessie Hill, Gladys Franke, Iru Haynes, Bertha Bell Barr, Anna Goering, and others. Inspired by the New Year, the conductors, Mary Marcella Beckman and Selma Nuessle, invited the passengers to spin the “Wheel of Fate” and to hear Dr. R. E. Roehl. lecturer, discuss “Having Something To Say” in order to become an interesting writer. “Have something to say, learn how to say it, and secure an audience to avoid being a bore,” said the speaker. “You yourself are the most interesting subject to discuss. Study yourself and reveal that self in ycur writing.” In April a pilgrimage, led by Mary Elizabeth Ellis, was made to the shrine of Shakespeare, where Madame Ascarra's recital furnished the supreme thrill of the tour. An attractive by-path next led through fields of vocations, where the careers of prominent travelers were revealed. Exhibits of hobbies and of creative English work were explained by Dorothy Caruthers. Awards were given for the best talks and themes on a vocational subject. After an extensive journey, conducted by Misses Ollie Stratton and Christine Lawrence, the travelers returned home to elect new guides for next year's cruise and to bid farewell to the seniors enroute to new fields.

The club has functioned at Bracken ridge for the past twelve years under the direction of officers elected semi-annually and sponsors who have served for four years each. Mr. Albert is the present sponsor of the Bracken ridge Hi-Y Club. Participating in the field of athletics, the Ili-Y engaged in football encounters with the other boys’ clubs of Bracken ridge, was runner-up in the basketball tournament, and took part in the baseball and track activities. Delegates were sent to the Southwest Conference held in November at Gregory, Texas; to the Older Boys’ Conference held in Corpus Christi in December; and to the Hi-Y Conference held in Austin in March. Social activities were not forgotten. A party was held in the school cafeteria in December, the object of which was to have some entertainment and to bring the members of the club into closer contact. The ideals of the members were shown when the Hi-Y aided in the Christmas party for the orphans, and distributed baskets of food and clothing to the needy. The end of the year came with the annual dinner-dance held in the latter part of March in one of San Antonio’s well-known hotels in honor of the departing seniors of the club. Manuel Garcia. Pra.

Upon the very interesting history of Spain is based every ideal and motto of the club. Among those ideals are courtesy, industry, and hospitality. The club was organized in 1921 by Mrs. Grace Carter and Mr. Carlos Castaneda. Miss Ethel Jones and Mrs. Carter now sponsor the organization. Only those of Spanish origin or thasc who speak the language fluently are admitted into the club. Los Hidalgos tries in every way possible to familiarize the members with the literature, art, manners, and customs of the Spanish and Mexican countries. Talks from those who have visited these places are frequently enjoyed by the members. All meetings are conducted in Spanish according to parliamentary law. Some annual events in the social calendar of the organization are the Hallowe’en Dance, Christmas Pinata, St. Valentine’s Party, and the banquet in May when the old executive committee turns its duties over to the new one, and the seniors are honored. This year “The Spanish Night” given in honor of the parents of the members and conducted in Spanish was added to the calendar. The typical Mexican Jarabe. the Spanish Jota, numerous songs, and other dances presented in the bright, quaint costumes of the land helped to make this a very colorful affair. Rose Davis.

The purpose of the club is to create interest in, and to encourage, the study of science. The membership is confined to those who are taking, or have taken, at least a high school course in science. The membership is limited to twenty-five, and at this time the roster of the club is practically filled. During the school year ending in 1932 the Science Club visited many points of interest. Among these were visits to the W.O.A.I. Broadcasting Station, Sherry’s Ice (’ream Plant. Southern Pacific Railway Shops, Fort Sam Houston Telephone Exchange, the plant of the Light Publishing Company, and the Neon Sign Shop. Visits to plants of local manufacturing industries have been continued during the present school year. The Pioneer Flour Mills, Gebhardt Chili Powder Company, and the refinery of the Texas Oil Company, are among the plants we visited. Another activity of the club was the sale of football pennants, caps, stickers, and pins. A number of social affairs were given during the year 1933, including wiener roasts and picnics. One of the outstanding parties of the year was our gastronomical and astronomical expedition to Bracken ridge Park. The social activities of the year closed with the annual banquet given at the St. Anthony Hotel, followed by a theater party, in honor of the seniors of the club.

It has consistently tried to train girls to speak without effort in as many ways as possible. In past years the Peri-claws have participated in inter-scholastic league debates and this year have a member, Lizette Elley, on the debating team. A very colorful and attractive Greek initiation is held each year for the new members. This ceremony was written by a former member of the society. The initiates are presented at the court of Athene, welcomed by Pericles, a great orator. Demosthenes, Leonidas. Damon, Mentor. Phvthias, and other (Ireek characters. all of whom are dressed in Greek costume. An enterprise of a different type was taken up last term. In keeping with the present needs the Pericleans made garments for the orphans. In addition to this a series of travel talks has been arranged given by various members of the faculty. In these talks, we have visited Washington with Mrs. Mitchell. Canada with Miss Lewis, and have taken a trip up the Rhine with Miss Richter. The graduate Pericleans have formed a society which meets four times a year at the home of their sponsor. Miss Annie Jary. These meetings are held for the purpose of upholding the traditions of the Periclean Debating Society, and of continuing the fellowship of old school mates.

The rules and activities of the society are directed by a National Council consisting of nine members, who are elected by the National Association of School Principals. The National Honor Society was effected by a general fusion of many local societies throughout the United States. For years the need for some uniform national scholarship society had been felt. As local societies had different names appreciated only in one locality it was deemed the wisest policy to have a great national organization which would afford worthy students recognition throughout the land. This action has met with hearty approval all over the United States and the National Honor Society has become one of the most noted orders for high school students. The primary qualification for membership is scholarship. From the third of seniors having the highest scholastic average, the faculty elects fifteen per cent of the senior class to membership. Besides qualifying in scholarship, a student must have rendered valuable service to the school during his entire high school career, such as being an officer in a club or class, editing annuals or papers, or participating in inter-scholastic events. He must have shown leadership in both class-room work and extracurricular activities and he must be above reproach in character and an example for others.

Marshall Johnston, who was at that time Principal of Brackenridge High School, was responsible for the inception of the chapter. Mrs. Bessie Lee Dickey Roselle has been the sponsor of the local chapter ever since the charter was obtained. To be qualified to wear the emblem of the National Honor Society is the most ardent ambition which any Brackenridge Student can have. The Honor Society emblem consists of a torch supporting a gold shield on which are the letters C.S.L.S., which represent the four cardinal virtues of the Society,— character, service, leadership and scholarship. A beautiful certificate of membership bearing the school seal and a replica of the emblem of the society is presented to each candidate for membership. The initiation service, which is held annually, draws the interest of the entire school, because of its beauty and impressiveness. A beautiful ritual is used and classical costumes are worn. Various clubs of the school recognize special attainments and qualifications of the student, but this society looks upon education as an achievement through the application of character, service, leadership and scholarship. The society stands for the admirable objectives for which schools were founded and is ever ready to award recognition to those who acquire the proper qualities. Olympics In journeying through different countries, one sees countless types of sports that vary with the climate and seasons. In Bracken-ridge, fall brings football; winter, basketball; and spring, baseball and track. With the students on the sidelines, cheering and inspiring them to do their best, the teams fight for their goals and carry on the Brackenridge tradition of victorious sports.

LYMPICS --ATHLETICS The Eagle Pep Squad ||—2LHA('KKNR1DOE High School has always recog-nized the fact that a display of loyal school spirit never fails to fill the athletes with a zealous determination to win. In order to secure a large membership, the pep squad was open to any student who was willing to do his part in helping the team to win. At one of the early pep rallies a free ticket to one of the games was given to every student in attendance. Long before the football season closed nearly one thousand students were members of the pep squad. The names of all members were published in the Brackenridge Times. Before the Brackenridge-Jefferson game each member was given a large “Beat Jefferson” button, designed in purple and white. These buttons also admitted students to the pep squad rooting section. A large part of the squad went by special train to Corsicana to lend their support to the team during the district game. The entire squad always cooperated with the cheer-leaders and the Purple Jackets in their effort to organize the support that the team justly deserved. The past football season will be remembered as a highly successful one and much of the credit belongs to the loyal students who were ever ready to give their support to the team and coaches. FEI.IX H. UI.I.RICH, Pep Squad Sponsor CHEER LEADERS:—George Theriot, Ruby Culpepper, Sheldon Katz, Thelma Stevens, Gene Lackey. MRS. ONTEE BELL ROBERTSON, Sponsor The Purple Jackets IIE Purple Jackets, now sponsored by Mrs. Robertson, were organized in 1927 to fill Bracken ridge's need for an organization to sponsor the school activities that were not under the supervision of other clubs. Now all school activities are boosted by this group of selected students. The organization is composed of one hundred and thirty of Bracken-ridge’s outstanding girls. Leadership, character, and sportsmanship figure prominently in the selection of these members, whose scholastic average must be C. The uniform consists of a white skirt, a white blouse, and a purple flannel jacket. The jackets are trimmed in white braid and have a white B on the pocket. This year white gloves were worn during drills. During the football and basket ball seasons, the Purple Jackets’ most important duty is to support the teams at all games and take an active part in the pep rallies. At the Bracken ridge versus Thomas Jefferson game, the1 'Purps” formed a “T.J.” at one end of the field, while the band formed a “B” at the other end. As they left the field, they held long purple and white sticks from which floated long streamers of the same colors. On New Year’s Eve the Purple Jackets drilled with other San Antonio pep squads at the San Antonio All-City versus Dallas All-City football game. TOP ROW:—Ranee, McGary, Lay, Garcia, E.

The Purple Jackets Following? their annual custom, in September the Purple Jackets entertained the new students with a “Freshman Sing”, and taught them the school songs and yells. In October the club gave a Hallowe’en party, and in December a Christmas party was held at the Dairy land Creamery. In January, the Purple Jackets entertained the football team with a theatre party at the Texas Theatre. A luncheon was held the last Saturday of the same month at the Plaza Hotel. During registration the “Purps” are particularly useful. The members aid the teachers and help the new students make out their program cards. Six Purple Jackets were hostesses, bi-monthly, for the Lights’ Food Show on the St. Anthony Root . They assisted in serving the patrons. On Columbus day six P. J. officers represented Brackenridge at a Flag Celebration held at Mission San Jose. As usual this organization helped to sell poppies on Armistice Day. The most anticipated affair of the year was a formal dance given in April in the ballroom of the Plaza Hotel. Only members of the club, their dates, and a certain number of stags were allowed to attend. At the end of the term, a formal dinner was held in honor of the new officers, and a farewell was bidden to the retiring officers.

CLAUD KELI.AM Boys’ Physical Education HE department of physical education for boys, as it exists at the present time, was organized and put into operation in the spring term of 1932 in order to comply with the requirements of the Stale Department of Education as regards physical education. The program provides opportunity for instruction and participation in the following activities: basketball, baseball, football, track, tennis, golf, volleyball, swimming, modified track, and playground baseball. A modern physical education building with showers and lockers was erected by the school system and a large gymnasium was financed from the athletic fund. Ample playground space adjoins the gymnasium and physical education building. The department requires six semesters of physical education and gives credit for participation on the squads of the interscholastic teams—football, basketball, baseball, track, tennis, golf, and swimming. Physical education classes are offered four periods of the day, and after school interscholastic teams are trained in the various sports. Classes meet on alternate days, thus providing for eight sections of physical education. The sections are organized into squads, under squad leaders, and the squads rotate, each squad spending an equal number of days in playground baseball, basketball, volleyball, and modified track. Handball, golf, boxing, and tumbling will be added to the program as soon as it is possible to do so. Turkey Day—Good game, big crowds. Boys’ Physical Education The department encourages participation in any recreational activity in the field of physical education so that the students will more intelligently use their leisure time. Wise use of leisure time, varied recreational interests, some ability in some individual activity, knowledge of the basic rules of the activities engaged in, and constantly improved ability in the execution of the fundamental skills of the various-activities are some of the general objectives the department hopes to reach. Another aim is to develop a more social individual, conscious of personal and group responsibility. m Opportunity for participation in the so-calle major sports, is provided by the department. Brad enridge High School is a member of The Texas Un versity Interscholastic League and has teams con peting in league schedules in football, basketbal baseball, track, and tennis. Teams are organized fc local competition in golf and swimming, activities nc sponsored by the league. These squads have the us of a modern playing field, Eagle Field, originall erected by the school system and constantly improve by the athletic department until it is now one of tli best plants in Texas, offering facilities for footbal baseball, and track. It is equipped with lights fc night contests and provides seats for ten thousan spectators. Nielil amos are fas( bccomin(! Football byka A BEK BURGE SOUTH McMillan baker BRACKENRIDGE started off a hard season by playing a practice game with the Temple Wildcats, a 6-6 tie. The Wildcats led 6-0 at the half, but the Eagles came from behind to tie the score in the third period. Fenner, fullback, plunged for the score. The try for extra point and victory was missed and the game ended in a deadlock. The Eagles won the first district game from the Harlandale Indians 13-0. Bracken ridge’s defense could not be penetrated, proving the ability of a 186 pound line. The first score came when McMillan returned a punt 45 yards for a touchdown. The blocking was good, and the backs, led by George Martin, took advantage of it to score again in the second half. The next victory was won by the Eagles from Del Rio. Contrary to the previous game, the Eagles displayed a tendency to loaf, consequently the game was close with the Eagles finally winning 9-6. The Wildcats scored first on a blocked kick. But tin Eagles came from behind to score a touchdown and a safety for 9 points and victory. Kerrville started off the next game by kicking a field goal in the first minute of play. The Eagles came from behind, however, to win the game 14-10 after a hard battle. SQUAD A, TOP ROW:—Daugherty, Fenner, Upshaw, Miller, Hein, Offer, Lerner, Nichols.

Martin, Slater, Baker, Patton, Loessberg. Football The game was close throughout, with Fenner’s punting and Martin’s line charges playing a big part in the Eagle victory. The Eagles scored two touchdowns during the first half and a safety in the last, while Kerryilie scored their only touchdown in the third quarter. Revenge is sweet. For a year the Eagles had been impatiently waiting for a chance to avenge a defeat at the hands of Austin. The whole Eagle team played faultless football to realize this ambition. The result was a 19-0 victory. The game belonged to Brackenridge from the opening gun. The backfield combination of Abee, Fenner, Martin, and McMillan worked to perfection. Austin got in Eagle territory only once and then not past the 35-yard line. The defensive playing of Miller, Lerner, and Stuart was outstanding. The reserve power of the Eagles showed great strength in the next game, a 13-0 victory over Alamo Heights. The defense of the Eagles was again outstanding, featuring Seale, Loessberg, Moore, and Fenner. Bracken ridge's first score came when Seale caught a 28 yard pass and ran across the pay station. Loessberg dropped out of the line to kick the extra point. Stuart intercepted a pass and ran 70 yards for a touchdown. The second string was put in at this point. They kept up the good work with Baker and Slater in the leading roles. SQUAD B, TOP ROW:—South, Burlanger, Glore, Nundell, Meyers, Sanches, Pyka.

DAUGHERTY DOERR FENNER GEYER KIRKES LERNER LOESSBERG MEDINA MOORE MARTIN MILLER NEWLANDS Football The Eagles swamped San Antonio Tech 26-0 as another forward step toward a district championship. Good blocking in the line with Baker’s smashing charges accounted for the highest score of the season. Leading the league in the district race, Bracken-ridge was now out to win the championship, needing only a tie game with Jefferson to cinch the flag. By beating Brackenridge, Jefferson could advance into a tie for first place, but this they failed to do, for Brackenridge won 3-0. Brackenridge scored 17 first downs to Jefferson’s one, but they couldn’t put over a score due to the brilliant goal line defense of the Mustangs. The Eagles tried two field goals in the first half, but failed to make either one of them. Finally, in the last quarter, Loessberg set his educated toe to work and placed one squarely between the uprights lor three points and victory. Martin, injured in the lech game, played but little against Jefferson, and the Eagles felt the loss of his brilliant running when a score was possible. The Brackenridge line stood like a stone wall and Jefferson’s only first down came on a penalty. With this victory Bracken ridge secured the first district championship the school has ever won. McMillan Making One of His Spectacular End Runs During the Turkey Day Game. Football Brackenridge left on the morning of December 2 for Corsicana, where they played the Tigers for the right to advance in the state finals. The chances of the Eagles received a severe jolt when they were defeated by Corsicana 13-0. The Eagles displayed a brilliant pass offense that gave them the edge both in first downs and net yardage gained. The power plays of the Tigers drove across touchdowns both times that they were in scoring territory, while the Eagles failed to take advantage of their scoring chances. John Fenner, brilliant punter of the Eagles, was outstanding for Bracken ridge. This defeat ended the most successful football season Bracken ridge has ever had. There were five Eagles on the 1032 All-City Team. Berner, Miller, Boessberg, Seale, and McMillan were the boys honored in this selection. These same boys also were picked on the A11-District eleven.

After numerous other victorious practice games, the Eagles entered the city series intent on defending their title of city champions. They got off to a bad start, by dropping the opening game to Thomas Jefferson by the score of 28-38. Bracken-ridge came back, however, in the next game and defeated the Sidney Lanier Voks 33-23. Tech was turned back 34-18 by the Eagles and Lanier defeated Jefferson to end the first round in a tie for top position. In the first game of the second round, the Mustangs’ superior height told on the tiring Eagles and they forged ahead in the last minutes of play to again beat the Eagles 31-39. Brackenridge proved they were still in the race, however, when they defeated the Voks in the next game. The score was 30-24. The Tech Buffaloes were beaten 46-14. Mike Seale established an individual scoring record in this game by making 23 points. The second round ended with Jefferson in first place, and Brackenridge and Lanier tied for second. The Eagles interrupted their regular schedule at this point to sweep a four-game series with Temple, last year’s state champions. BACK ROW.—Vilcoq, Voss, Seale, Vilven, Moses, Mata.

With one more chance at tlie city championship the Eagles went down in defeat. Jefferson won by only one point but it spelled defeat for the Eagles and gave the Mustangs the city title. The two teams played on an even basis all during the game. The largest lead was held by Jefferson at the start of the fourth quarter, and it was only four points. The Eagles came up to within one point of them in the last minute of play, but Jefferson successfully froze the ball and the game ended 36-35. Brackenridge beat Tech in the last game of the city series. The Eagles scored 55 points to Tech’s 10 and in doing so set two records, one for high score and one for keeping Tech at low score. The Eagles won the second game of a two-game series with Central Catholic to sweep the series. A two-game series was won from the Austin High Maroons; one game was played here and one in Austin. The next game was played in Kerrville against the Tivy High Antlers. The score was close throughout the game, ending in a 33-27 victory for Brackendrige. This game closed the season for the Eagles.

Carle, Loessberg, and Yarborough with the fine pitching of “Slim” Baker. Wesley Seale, and Theron Dossey made the going lots easier for Coach Puckett’s nine. This year the eity High School League has increased to seven teams. The new-comers are Tech, T.M.I., Central, and St. Anthony. With the addition of these teams the race is expected to be more interesting than ever. Each team is played twice, making a total of fourteen games played in all. Coach Puckett has seven lettermen from which to build a team this year; so another championship is expected by the Eagle followers. Numerous practice games with army teams start off the season for the Eagles each year. This year the Eagles played eight games, winning five of them. The mainstays of the team this year were Fenner, Dossey. Seale, Beals, and Kirkes. Fenner, regular catcher from last year, has been shifted to first, and Kirkes is filling his place. The first league game was played with Central Catholic on March 29. Bracken ridge batters were completely fooled by the Catholic’s pitcher and got but four hits; two of these were credited to Beals.

Physical Education for Girls Friendly Rivals, FRANKE and JANSZEN TIIE state of Texas took a big step forward in education when it made physical education compulsory. There is no better field in education for developing leadership, good citizenship, sportsmanship, and physical efficiency than through physical education. Those responsible for physical education for girls in Brackenridge High School and in the other senior schools of the city agree with the Women’s Division of the National Amateur Athletic Federation of America in believing in the spirit of play for its own sake and in a program of activity for the largest number of persons possible. Therefore an inter-class program is followed rather than interschool competition. Captain ball was the first inter-class sport of the year 1932-33. This was the first season of the game at Brackenridge and before the season was over, it had become quite a favorite game. The winners of the tournament were Melba Janszen and her team selected from the fourth period Tuesday and Thursday class, who won by reason of their accurate passing and excellent catching. Another event of the fall program of physical education was the short program demonstrating some phases of the work to the P.T.A. Some of the girls presented in pantomine the poem “Ode to Posture”; others showed the individual exercises and rendered a folk dance. Playing captain ball, a new favorite. Physical Education for Girls Posture has an important place in the program. The students are taught how to walk, sit, stand, and raise their bodies correctly in ordinary activities of daily life. “Posture Week” is a time when the students who have good posture habitually will be tagged by some able judges. The program for the spring term will include inter-class or inter-club games in indoor baseball. Tumbling or self-testing activities, rhythmical activities, and mass games will be enjoyed. This spring two tennis courts were built, one for the boys and one for the girls. We hope to make a good beginning with tennis for all the students and to have more courts available for our use some day soon. It is the hope of many that, as time goes on, more adequate quarters and equipment will be added, and that more time will be allotted the department so that the work can be made more attractive and enjoyable. The physical education for girls was under the supervision of Miss Jessie Church and Mrs. Julia Ball, as full time teachers, and Mrs. Lydia Magruder, part time teacher, at the beginning of the 1932-33 term. Miss Church, who became Mrs. Charles Cowing, left the school at Thanksgiving, and Mi’s. Wilber P. Rob-crtson took her place. A demonstration of tumbling exercises.

PRINTING LITHOGRAPHING OFFICE FURNITURE STATION E RY - ENGRAVING a---------------------------------------------------------------- PRIVATE OWNERSHIP AND PUBLIC CONTROL The great progress in utility business in the past half century has taken place under private ownership with public regulation and control. America easily leads the world in the development of electricity. Labor accomplishes more, gets more, and sweats less, and the old days of slavery for the housewife are forever abolished. When someone wants a political issue they generally suggest municipal ownership of utilities. They never suggest municipal ownership of their own business. 1 he public is primarily interested in better service and the lowest possible rates. The history of government and municipal ownership does not give the customer any reason to expect to get as good service at as low a rate by eliminating private ownership. There may be individual cases under unusual conditions that are exceptions to this statement, but in states and definite sections where complete data is available, the comparison is in favor of private ownership.
