The Presidentis Message As we, the members of the passing class of 325, look deeply and earnestly into the future and marvel over the problems we intend to undertake, we hold in our hearts a feeling of sincere appreciation for the good that has been derived from the untiring efforts exerted by our beloved school. We realize that it should receive more heart-felt expres- sions of this kind. We also, after receiving the teachings of experience and profiting by our mistakes, wish to leave a Word of inspiration and encouragement to the oncoming classes, who we hope will successfully follow in our foot'- steps. We would like for them to realize the same fact we have, which is, 'aprepare and equip yourselves to such an extent that you will be able to counteract any agency which might interfere with your successf' THERON BROWN, President. ibm?

Or the labor we've just begun, That puts us right on the ledger sheetg lt's the work we have really done. Our credit is built upon things we do, Our debit on things we shirkg The man who totals the biggest plus ls the man who completes his work. Good intentions do not pay hillsg It's easy enough to plan. To wish is the play of an office boyg To do is the job of a man. lass Histor of ' The things that happen from day to day seem relatively unimportant when viewed individually, but as time slips on and all the todays become yesterdays and tomorrow', becomes today, the events and happenings of those yesterdays become history. Sometimes it is history which affects the whole world.-sometimes it has to do with a nation or a state or a town. But many. many times as the hour glass marks the inevitable passing of the days and also the certain creating of history, these events have influence only upon a small group. Yet this is history just as surely and indisputably as the World War and leaves its mark and bit of influence upon the world as certainly as the greater event did. It was back in the year 1921. that a certain little ship started from Centenary Academy on its course towards the goal of graduation. This tiny craft did not have many aboard as it set sail, and of these there were only two who were to reach the end of the way. These were Theron Brown and William Noel. Of these two, Theron was the only one who spent the entire four years. There was no doubt that these green freshies were green and also fresh, but they were proud of it and did what they should. This class started under the care of Centenary College in what is now the college boys, dormitory. Mr. George Pirtle Evans was a most pleasing head- master for the two years he was with the Academy. In the fall of the following year the class reassembled. Now they were Sopho- mores and, as is customary with Sophomores. they felt their importance. Who ever heard of a Sophomore who was not egotistical? And these were certainly normal high school Sophomores. Several new passengers embarked on the ship of '25', this year. Among those who finished out the journey were Jane Fullilove, Helen Latzko. Walter Connell, Wilchia Armistead and Annie Knowles. Two others. Nema Pugh and Price Tillery, remained until mid-term. This year the Academy and its student body moved into the building formerly occupied by the college. lt was during this year that Mr. Hughes came as headmaster to pilot the ship on to its goal and perhaps not a single boy or girl has since entered the Academy who has not felt -his helpfulness and the force of his personality. When this class came back the following school year they had sobered down somewhat and lost a great deal of their egotism. For they were Juniors now. and the more they learned the more they realized how much there was to be learned and this caused some of their apparent sophistication to drop away. This year a number of students left and others joined the crew. keeping the class with practically the same number as it had the previous year. and remaining to graduate are Sam Cararas, Everette Duncan. W. R. Hatcher. Ruth Shelby and Bob Goodrich. This year was crowned with the Junior-Senior party at Curtis Lake. At the close of the year the members of the class of '25 left their Alma Mater as under-classmen for the last time. lt did not seem long till the end of the summer vacation and then. for the last time, the class assembled in its new buildings. Now they were Seniors-realizing their responsibilities. very dignified and grave. leaders in the various phases of their school life. Then, too. they were somewhat saddened by the thought that they would never return to their beloved Alma Mater as pupils. Others came to fill the vacancies made by those who had gone. These were William Colbert. Elmo Lee. Dan Logan. Lee Nader from Syria. Harold Ratcliff and lsobel Troy. The little 6'Ship of '25 dipped successfully into draiiiatics and athletics as well as the ordinary school events! and two Seniors. Bob Goodrich and Theron Brown. gave evidence of the excellence of the Academyls teaching by winning a debate from the S. H. S. debating team. The class now is drawing near its long looked for goal and is happy. The little craft that set out four years ago has gone over stormy seas and smooth seas with some adversities and sadness and many happy days. As the crew sights the harbor the members come to realize more and more the true helps and friendships they have found and to wonder if. perhaps. these will not he the days they will look back upon with fondest memories. Yet they go out with high hopes and expectant hearts more prepared for life's experiences by those of their school days. THERON BROWN. Page from the Diary of Margaret Holmes June 3rd, 1950. It has been twenty-five years since we graduated from Centenary Academy. A more illustrious class has never been known. Theron Brown, the president of the class, has become an ambassador to Germany and is doing wonders to promote Bolshevism. While Annie and I were traveling in Germany we went to see the comic opera. Wfhe Sleeping Beauty,', written by W. R. Hatcher, who has prospects of becoming ri second Shakespeare. While we were there we met Everette Duncan. He told us he had just turned in his application to the Matrimonial Bureau, managed by Miss Jane Fullilove and Helene Latzko. But it was not for marriage-just advertising manager. Bob Goodrich has become a medical missionary in Africa and is also specializing in teaching the natives how to play the saxophone. Annie and I visited the Academy the other day. lt has become a large school, but is still doing as much good for boys and girls as it used to. It is now prospering under the supervision of Mr. William Logan. Walter Connell is also a President of a school but of a more elevating kind, as it is an aviation school. When one thinks of Walter they always think of Buster Noel. He now holds the title of the world's lightweight boxer. D Bernice Carnathan and Elmo Lee are in Paris. They have gone into a partnership business and have become the most popular modistes in Paris. ln Paris we also saw Wilchia. He lives there. You know it is well known that he is the most sought after bachelor in all of Europe. Wilchia always did have a way with women. His only competitor in the old days at the Academy was Bill Colbert. But he has lost that charm now and has become a Methodist Bishop. Sam Cararas is now a famous speaker because he possesses the most audible voice known and because of his clever wit. Vife can now forgive his hours of practice at the Academy. Harold Batcliff has become a great lawyer and is assisted in many of his cases by Lee Nader, who has become a well-known finger-print special- ist. Some of the largest cases that come before the World today are worked out by them. Ruby Turnley has written up several of their cases but she has been traveling for several years now and is writing her ex- periences. But what we can't understand is why she spends so much of her time in Germany. Oh,qI had almost forgotten about Annie. She has become a great artist. Everybody knows about her. Her studio is right near my hus- bandls office. Oh, of course, you know that by husband is John D. Rocke- fellow 3rd. Dan Logan is very wealthy also. He spends most of his money in buying boats for Ruth Shelby to take her fancy swimming and diving classes out to deep water for practice. He spends the rest of it in buying boats to follow her. But twenty-five years haven't changed us much for we are in reality still boys and girls of Centenary Academy. ijt., jw KCLYQQ JTILL I0 DREAHING A E K Junior Class Officers Moasc PAGE .... .......

S ecretary PRESIDENTS MESSAGE Fellow Juniors: As we view the work of the past year, we realize that our shortcomings have been many, but we do feel that we have accom- plished a great deal for our Academy, for our class, and for ourselves. Next year we shall have a greater task: that of taking the places of our beloved Seniors, who have so loyally, willingly, and faithfully given their time and service that their school might prosper. lf we expect to fill their places successfully, we must be as loyal as they have been. We must always fight for the right and we must ex- tend a helping hand to the weak. MORSE PACE, President. MIIIISE PAGE Vivian. La. AZILE SWAN Shreveport. La. LOREE HEAD Shrevefport. La.

GWENDOLYN WEBB PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE After successfully mastering the duties of Freshmen, we finally passed from that stage of Hgreennessi' so apparent among freshmen and entered into the second lap of this wonderful educational race. The Sophomore class of '24-'25 has been a loyal class and has mani- fested fine school and class spirit at all times. When we take up our duties as Juniors next year we hope to keep up the same spirit and run a good race to the end. BILL MORGAN, President. I, II , I. 'I II I IL , I u I I ,.

Secretary The Freshman Class of '25 The Freshman class started off by living up to the name 'Treshn very strong. The class this year had about the usual number and was made up of young but very wise members. Those having the highest grades in the school came from the Fresh- man class. Because of their numerous other occupations, the Seniors had no time to make the hundredsg because the Juniors knew it all, they didn't have to studyg because the Sophs didn't have the energy, they fell downg so-the Freshman class led with the highest class average. As for the freshness. well, the Freshmen are not fresh in the usual sense-just refreshing. ELIZABETI1 AGURS, Secretary.

The Hi-Y boys had a box supper and all the bunch went on it. We furnished the boxes, we did. We all met at the school about 7 oiclock and there they auctioned our boxes off. Nlr. Hughes kept urging them on till they bid nearly 592 on mine. ,lust think. one of those boys wanted nt, lunch so had they paid two dollars. I'll bet it was me they wanted. Anti I sure was lucky 'cause the very one I wanted to got mine. Gosh! 11 sure wuz a pretty nitehmoonlite and everything. We went from thc school down across a log and everything to get there-and the funnies- thing happened-a whole lot of 'em fell in-poor Mary-she had on het new stockings and they cost 33 too. But we didn't mind that ,cause wa, had such a good time. They promised to give us a picnic or 'possum hunt or SOITICIHIII5 pretty soon for furnishing the eats last nite. I sure do wish they'd give it next week. I'll write you again in a few days if youill write me. Yours till the bed springs, SALLY. 'X- if- Y Centenary Academy Sunday Afternoon Darling Maggie: It seems like one good time ust follows another here at our school. The I-li-Y boys finally gave us that all-day picnic that weive been waiting for so long yesterday. It was just a dream-lasted all day long. They gave it down at Ninoch. To start the day off right-several of the boys had a pretty little party in the river. Bob and Theron started over to the other side in a boat-Buster and Doc were in another boat. We all knew something was up when Bob and Theron rowed up so close to the other boat. And sure enough-that crazy Theron jumped from one boat to the other boat and started rocking the boat-and of course it finally sunk. Doc, poor boy, lost three pounds in weight he was so scared-they all three had to swim in-they were the first swimmers of the season. Honey, I could just write on forever and never finish telling all thc things we did out there. I wish I had time to tell you about the pictures we took of all those wet clothes hanging on the line and everything else-- and about how funny old Helen Ruth looked chasing around after Skeeter in that game we played called Rachel and Jacob-and about all the good things we had to eat-all kinds of pop 'neverything-and about how disgusted Mr. Hebert was with us all. But Mag-I hear the supper bell ringing so I'll quit. Yours till the giraffe necks, SALLY. g- .L -:aff ff' 1. IJ 1 ff LIP 'g r gn E' hw 'Q 6 w p 5 1 s . l Y I f i i . 1 K 1' 1 i I .

This banquet was the most elaborate affair ever tendered an Academy football team. There were fifteen letter men sitting at the football table. The program, which was rendered through the evening, was enjoyed by all. Mr. Theron Brown acted as toastmaster. Following a short talk by Swede Anderson of the Centenary Gentlemen, the football boys were presented with their letters. Mirth reigned throughout the evening, ,mid all the confetti, whistles a11d various other favors. A -X The Hi-Y Trip Thirteen delegates from the Academy Hi-Y Club attended the Older Boys, Conference held in Homer, La., during the month of February. The Academy club had been organized only a month, but made a fine showing at the conference, putting the Academy Hi-Y Club on the map as the third best club in North Louisiana. Entertainment galore was furnished the boys while in Homer by the residents of that city. Much fun and frolic was enjoyed along with the more serious programs and inspirational addresses. The Academy aided in bringing the conference to Shreveport next year. H4-' The MPine Burr Banquet May Day was Celebrated in the Academy with the largest social event in the history of the school-the 4'Pine Burri' Banquet at the Washingtoii Hotel, in honor of the annual staff. There were over one hundred and twenty-five guests present. The attendance was boosted by a contest staged between the Sextonln and Wynnonian Literary Societies. Mr. Hughes acted as toastmaster and an excellent program was given, consisting of musical numbers and talks. Dr. Green of Centenary College represented the Wynnonian Society in a short talk, after which Dr. Sexton, president of Centenary College, spoke, representing the Sextonians. lt was a real banquet put over in the same old Academy style- unothin, but the bestf, We'll never forget the '6Pine Burr Banquet of '25, f The Debating Team For the first year in its history the Academy had a debating team representing the school. The team was picked from a group of five in the try-outs held the first of April. The contestants for the team were Al Smith, Harold Ratcliff, Bob Goodrich, Bill Logan and Theron Brown. The judges for the occasion were Mr. and Mrs. Prevo and H. lVl. Boazman, all of Centenary College. Bob Goodrich and Theron Brown were picked for the team, with Harold Batcliff in third place. The main debate of the year was with the Shreveport High School on the Child Labor question, which took place on the evening of April 111, 1925, in the Academy auditorium. Both schools were well represented in the audience by members of its student body and much enthusiasm was aroused. The judges rendered their unanimous decision in favor of thc negative, which was upheld by the Academy. This was the first time the Academy has ever taken part in an interscholastic debate. 'X -JC X if The Rally The Academy for the first time was represented at the State High School Rally held at Baton Rouge during April. Theron Brown repre- sented the Academy in declamation contest and was placed in the semi- finals. The school was represented in debating by Bob Goodrich. This marks another era in the advancement of the Academy. Although they were represented in only two events this year, next year we hope they will be represented in many of the other contests. Plans are already under way which will make it possible for some of the athletic teams to go to the Rally. 4 -1' fx r A-.vc l.r' BOOK THLETICS .sa K 4 , .... X. Hz:- , Hp. fr fa.

The Academy boys played on the college teams until Centenary had enough men to form their own team. lt was during the 1922-1923 season that the first Academy football team was organized. 1922-1923 The Academy secured as its coach Mr. L. B. Hebert. The first foot- ball team met only one defeat out of nine starts, this one being at the hands of the strong Dellidder High team. The basketball team, also coached by Mr. Hebert, had only one loss registered out of eleven games. ln baseball the team met with equal success, losing three out of nine games. 1923-1924- At the beginning of the ,225 season, 1Vlr. G. T. Leonard was employed as head athletic director. This season the football team, composed entirely of inexperienced men, lost four games out of four starts. Because of lack of facilities, no basketball team was organized. The baseball team lost ten games out of eleven. 1924-1925 This brings us to the season of 724, which marked a new era in the history of the Academy. The football team was put in training under Coaches Hebert and Prevo. After two weeks of strenuous work, the Eagles met the Bossier City High School in the first game of the season. The Eagles scored an easy victory of 23-0. The next game was with the Oil City High School. After a hard fight against a heavier team, the Academy was turned back 6-0. Plain Dealing was the next team to meet the Acad- emy and once more the Eagles lost by a 12-6 score. The fourth clash was with the Mansfield High School, an old enemy of the Academy. The Eagles entered the game with a ado-or-die spirit. determined to win. lt was a mighty battle-both teams playing good foot- ball. At the end of the third quarter the score stood 0-0. After three unsuccessful attempts at the line, Colbert, of the Academy, dropped back for a field goal. lt was a tense moment in which he sent the ball squarely between the goal. This kick decided the game and for the first time in their history, the Eagles won from Mansfield. The game ended 3-0. The Eagles then met Oil City in a return game and were again defeated, the score being 7-0. The Academy closed its season with Evergreen High School, a heavier and more experienced team, losing the game 19-0. The Academy basketball team had a good season. The team was coached by Mr. Glover. They were defeated six times out of nine games. Prospects for a winning baseball team for '25 are very bright. MR. L. B.

End Bill handled his end like a veteran, and his opponents had something to brag about when they gained around his end. VERNON SMITH .................. Halfback, End Playing his first year as a regular, Vernon showed much improve- ment over his playing last year. He was a valuable man in the back- field and promises to be of greater value next year. WILLIAM fBUSTERl NOEL ........ Halfback, End Buster was fast and could always be depended upon to gain. When it came to playing various positions he was a man of rare ability.

Halfback Probably the fastest man in the backfield and always gained when given the ball. Prospects for Next Season The prestige a school enjoys is always a dominant factor in a student's choice between schools. The policy of this institution, its teaching personnel, its purposely limited student body has made this first year a success and has placed the school in a position all to itself, the best of the youth of this state and surrounding territory. The foundation work is well laid. An increase in the student body means a finer group of athletes. and influx of new blood and zeal, to build up above this first year's foundation work. One of our most important problems have to do with our recognition among other schools of the state in their athletic program. A second problem deals in the competition with schools which use town athletes in making up their teams. To offset these vexing situations the athletic association plans to become a member of the Louisiana High School Athletic Association, and also to so raise our standard of athletic work that we can arrange schedules with the better grade of state teams. The School Administration plans to increase the athletic staff this fall. This is in recognition of the spirit manifested especially by the class teams. their eagerness for games and athletics in general. The Administration knows that unless the class teams and scrub teams are provided for and trained the varsity teams will never reach a very high plane of work. In a general program of athletics work we are atnply provided, having space for several courts for basketball, volley ball, tennis and such sports. No doubt quite a strenuous effort will be made to provide a large field for the major sports. We can boast of no traditions. But we have begun to build a student body consciousness, to develop a school spirit. to feel a group unity of purpose that is the beginning of our tradition. The Athletic Association has chosen for its emblem The Eagle, a most fitting choice to inspire one to soar to the heights, to race for the great open spaces of leadership above the crowd, to reach for self-mastery. As baby Eaglets we are just learning to fly. Our first attempts seem so weak in comparison with our strong desire to sweep and soar. With a fine spirit of co-operation from the student body, a keen desire to excel. a unity of purpose and teamwork, a knowledge of the value of patient and persistent practice, the willingness to pay the price for success. with these our splendid prospects will surely develop our Eagles in comparison with those mighty birds of which, as a nation, we are so proud.

There was very little material to build from, but Mr. Glover proved himself a capable coach and molded from the green material which came to him, a team worthy of the name '4Eagle.

A Forward Look ln launching Centenary Academy as a separate institution the Board of Directors had in mind the fact that two things were necessary in order to establish and maintain a high class school: One of these. a faculty composed of experienced and efficient educators, the other a student body made up of young people of high character, each of whom would be an inspiration to his fellow students. Our success in this matter finds ample expression in the faculty and student body which we have brought together and the work that has been accomplished during the year that is now coming to a close. Our successes during this session are but a suggestion of what the future shall be. While there goes from our student body in the Senior class a group of excellent young people, we have in each of the lower classes a large nucleus of as fine young people as can be found anywhere, and already we are receiving applications for reservations for the coming year. The splendid school spirit that has developed in our student body is already beginning to exert itself toward the establishment of ideals and aspirations in a number of outstanding features: noticeably among these is the keen rivalry in debating and other inter-society activities as well as scholarship attainment. The Dramatics department is worthy of special mention. Several plays of a very high order have been presented and it is the purpose of the school to expand this department for another year. The Boys, Hi-Y and Girls' Reserve have been organized and have already begun their work of developing the moral and spiritual side of the stu- dent body. With an increased student body and a corps of teachers, who have proven themselves capable, we shall begin a new session under most favorable auspices. The Academy proposes to do more than teach text books, it assumes the responsibility of helping each student who enters its doors in the formation of right habits and the development of character.
