Mrs. AIccn Jones. Sponsor 1957 COED CADETTES BRING HONOR An ORGANIZATION which has grown from 30 members in 1926 to more than 200 can truly be called 3 TRADITION. Such a group, which has an origin that goes back al- most as far as the school's itself, we cherish for irreplaceable memories and an undefined pride. Since the longevity itself of the organization should indicate its invaluable activities, it is deserving of our praise and respect. Of course we honor this group for its past, only after first applauding its SERVICES of school, charity, and civic. The members of this organization usher at the Ice Capades and at The Houston Fat Stock Show every year. They attend events of public interests such as ground breakings, parades, and the Mardi Gras. They help the less fortunate by selling poppies on Armistice Day and ushering at the Crippled Children's Ball. Through performance and the Carat Show, they provide entertainment for students. Also, they sell school directories, rib- bons. pompoms, candy, magazines and Christ- mas cards for the convenience and pleasure of both teachers and students. This year the Cadettes presented the school with the six flags of Texas. In the performance of so many services, the members become REPRESENTATIVES of 6

TO ALMA MATER the school—of its attitude and ideals. They arc seen by the public as a paragon, creative and purposeful. Though they may express them- selves with modern drills and equipment, the basic motives have remained unchanged since the beginning, to advance good citizenship and school patriotism. Thus, it is that they symbol- ize the goals which the student body, as a whole, strives to attain. The most important function of this or- ganization's services, which is certainly a tra- dition and of which the members arc truly representatives, is the promoting of school SPIRIT. Through parades, musical selections, and cheers, they show to all the pride we have in our athletic department. They let others know of our athlete's fight-to-the-finish atti- tude. By their organized efforts, they tell the players that the whole school shares this de- termination with them and backs them up. thus boosting morale. Without this group, our games would have a minimum of pep. show, and liveliness. With these concepts in mind, the staff of the 1958 BUFFALO, believing that the culmina- tion of a dedication should include TRADI- TION. SERVICES, REPRESENTATIVES, and SPIRIT, therefore dedicate this yearbook to the MILBY COED CADETTES. 7
