Contents THE PAST Traditions Activities Faculty THE PRESENT Organizations Favorites Sports THE FUTURE Senior Class Junior Class : Sophomore Class Advertising Student Index Editor’s Page Foreword.. As we, the pupils of Charles H. Milby Senior High School, study and labor to realize our goals, we are but a part of a larger world of people toil- ing and striving to attain their aims. These people are our families and friends: citizens of the city of Houston. This is their city and ours; it gives us opportunity, and we give it life. Our PAST should be to each of us a cherished heritage. Thpse who have gone before us have laid open the path- way which we today are fol- lowing. We, in our pride, feel that the growth and forward march of Houston has been reflected in the growth and forward march of our school. The PRESENT is a kaleido- scope of hustling, bustling ac- tivities in our dynamic city that is akin to the stir and flurry of our everyday school life. The FUTURE is represented by the culmination of dreams and plans, whether it be those of the individual or of the throng comprising the city. Whether these hopes and vi- sions come true for our city will depend in large measure on whether we, as individuals, are able to make our desires and aspirations come true and will work together toward that goal . . . side by side. 6 12 42 64 144 .162 .212 .270 287 304 305 328

'Epitome of Spirit Now and Always . . . If we work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are then engraving upon tablets which no time will efface, but will brighten and brighten to all eternity. —DANIEL WEBSTER None can deny that MRS. CLARA McLENDON’S dedicated spirit has not instilled just principles into the streams of students she has met since she first came to Milby 37 years ago. She has devoted her life to others—Milby students; friends of her church; children of her neighborhood. And her devotion will be re- flected “to all eternity” in the memories of those whose lives she has guided on to higher goals. As the propagator of Milby’s renowned spirit, MRS. McLENDON remembers the times she went to tea at the old Milby home in Harrisburg . . . the day when Mrs. Milby dedicated the school in 1927 to her husband, Charles . . . the day W. I. Stevenson brought “Charlie Buffalo” home . . . and the day the Hammond family gave the first $4000 scholarship. Mixed with these memories are precious years of active participa- tion in Oaklawn Presbyterian Church, the College Women’s Club, and traveler to Europe, Hawaii, the Caribbean, and Alaska. Her mark upon Milby will always be remembered, for she belongs to the generations that make HOUSTON’S PAST, PRESENT, and the FUTURE. 4
