SENIOR CLASS OF 1936 The present senior class has at last reached the l93G goal-post. During our three year stay we have endeavored to uphold the high ideals of Brackenridge. With the able leadership of our sponsors, Miss Christine Lawrence, Miss Elsa Burg, and Major B. I. Reilly, we feel some pride in the thought that we have accomplished our aim to a satisfactory degree. A Sport Prom, held in the brightly decorated boys' gymnasium of Brackenridge High School, was the first social event of the year l935-36. Delightful music was furnished by lohnny Fielder and his orchestra. There was a very gay crowd present, and it seemed to be a night of fun and frolic for all. instead of giving a carnival, with various booths, as has been done previously, the seniors gave a jamboree, with a dance after the coronation of the king and queen. The theme of the coronation was an Arabian court. Twenty-four dukes and duchesses, and train bearers, all in brightly-colored Arabian costumes helped make it a more spectacular and colorful event than any of its kind in many years. On February 28, a Leap Year Dance was given in the cafeteria. At this dance the fairer sex had full sway. They made the date, bought the bid, and did the cutting. This gala event proved to be one of the most outstanding and unique of the year. The successful candidates to La Retama's Hall of Fame were announced at this dance. On April Fool Day the annual senior picnic was held at Brackenridge Park. The half-day holiday allowed the seniors was, of course, eagerly taken advantage of. All worries and studies were seemingly forgotten and the otherwise sedate and dignified seniors acted like children. lt is not likely that any of them will ever forget this enjoyable afternoon. To conclude the social events of the season another dance was held in spring. Then with the coming of May and approach of commencement, all hearts were gladdened with the thought of teas, dances, and the like. The biggest and happiest event of all, of course, was the commencement sermon and the graduation exercises. Hearts were both light and heavy at this event, for the graduate is left with the feeling that the happiest days of his life are over. -Martha McGee, Historian.
