MARSHALL Mathematics MISS OPAL McCAIN Office Secretary MISS CHARLSYE McCLURG Home Economics MISS LILA SULLIVAN English MR. G. E. SWINDELL Mathematics The melancholy days are come, The saddest of the year— When we must leave our classmates And the school so dear. The Seniors won’t be back next year, They’ve left this school to stay; The Juniors have another year Before they go away. The Sophomores still must study hard And finish the task begun, But the Freshmen just have a good start To come back next year on the run. (ClaHHPH Consolation of Seniors When the Seniors’ lessons are studied, And quizzes are things of the past, When their grades have all been recorded. After we’ve worked right up to the last, We shall rest, and Seniors, we’ll need it; We can sleep for an hour or two. With never a dream to remind us. Of other hard studying to do. Then—those who have worksd shall be happy. They shall stroll around in pairs; Each weary and worn-out Senior Shall be free from worries and cares; We shall have a long rest from then on% With never a bell’s shrill call, And our heads shall have done with aching, For we’ll not have to study at all.

Coach SIXTY-EIGHT Starting off the Interscholastic season right, the Denison High Yellow Jackets defeated the Paris Wildcats in the first Conference game of the year to the tune of 30 to 0. The Jackets on the previous Friday whipped the W. C. Stripling team from Fort Worth by a count of 12 to 0, and wishing to show their real ability in the Paris game put forth every effort to overcome the Wildcats by a top heavy score. The contest was sewed up in the early stages of the first quarter with tw'o touchdowns and one extra point. One of the outstanding plays of the game was made when Elvin Gaines, who carried considerable power as a line plunger, received the ball on a fake play and with plenty of interference, raced 55 yards to another touchdown. The second quarter opened with the Jackets still determined to run up a score. After gaining 6 yards on line plays, Clark broke loose in the center of the field and on a criss-cross play with excellent interference, raced over the goal line for another six points. Rosie Jones, center, displaying his ability at passing, enabled the back-field men to do very good work. The final score of the game was made by Breaker who intercepted a Paris pass on the visitors’ 45 yard line. With the pigskin tucked under his arm, Breaker evaded tackier after tackier and was given good interference as the opposition was halted long enough to let him worm his way over the goal line. Kelly Hancock, during this exciting instant of the game, displayed his power of blocking the Paris linemen. The Wildcats came to Denison rated as strong as the Jackets, but our boys during every minute of the game displayed power, quick thinking and nerve, that goes to make up real football. S. HEARRELL Captain C. GAINES E. WILBURN Captain Elect SIXTY-NINE DENISON 52, DENTON 0 At Forest Park on Turkey Day, the Denison High Yellow Jackets defeated the Denton High School eleven, 52 to 0. Fighting only as Jackets can fight when playing their ancient and worthy rivals, they showed a drive and irrestible attack that was the marvel of the season. The Jackets unreeled numerous plays and took long chances on plays that ran up the scoring to the highest point a Denison team has made in several years. The entire Denison crew, including substitutes, evidently put all they had in the closing chapter of the year. The Jackets cut loose with Hancock, Steakley, E. Gaines, C. Gaines and Clark, carrying the ball and piling up yardage that counted for score later. Clark’s passing to Hancock, C. Gaines and Jones was exceptionally good. He shot the ball like a bullet, and more passes were completed than had been seen handled by Denison this season. C. Gaines, early in the game, snagged passes from Clark and scored two touchdowns, while Rosie Jones, who was shifted to end, scored his first touchdown of the year by grabbing a long pass. Hancock took passes behind the line of scrimmage like a machine, and Steakley in the backfield stepped off more yardage than he had in any ' game this year. Mosse and Lewis, substitutes, looked exceptionally good in the line when they did relief duty. DENISON 7, GAINESVILLE 0 In the game with the Gainesville Leopards, the Jackets took the victory 7 to 0. m While several of the team fought valiantly, the team as a whole seemed unable to ■ snap into the action that won the spectacular McKinney victory the week before However, it was obvious that fans who doped out a sweeping victory had not weighed the Leopards as carefully as the Gainesville gridsters deserved. V The Jackets tightened down on the Leopards in the first quarter displaying some interesting football but no touchdowns. The second quarter opened with the Jackets on Gainesville’s 35-yard line. Klvin Gaines claimed five yards in two runs, and Clark broke away to rush the hall across the line for the only touchdown of the game. E. Gaines kicked the extra point. Betts, Bandy, Brewer and Teague were easily recognized as the outstanding Leopards. Clark, Steakley, Breaker, Sasser and Capt. Hearrell consistently played good football. DENISON 12, FT. WORTH 6 The Fort Worth Lions, City Champions, came to Denison with the purpose of playing to win from the Jackets. However, it was a sad reverse for the visitors as the Jackets took from them the victory 12 to 6. The Jackets went into the fray with the determination to win. The Fort Worth line was cut and slashed at every chance. End runs, over tackle plays, bucking the center and passing many times with so much success that the record shows the ball was in the visitors territory the greater part of the game. Clark, Hancock, Steakley. and Gaines lugged the ball about in such a manner that the fans were constantly cheering them. Steakley made long gaines, time and again as he wedged his way through the opposition, then Hancock came along and ripped off many yards, with Gaines adding to the misery of the Panther City eleven. Clark stepped off yardage right and left, and Mulkey was unmovable on the “defense and a power on the offense. Goodall showed up well in the game and made many g’ood plays. A. CLARK K. HANCOCK E.

STEAKLEY SEVENTY-TWO 1331 SEVENTY-THREE Saskrtball SKV KNTY-FOUR BASKETBALL The basketball season this year, although not being a decided success, could not be termed a failure. Leuty, the all-state selection of ’30 for center, was shifted to guard and was the mainstay of the club for points. In the game with Sherman for county championship it was his long shots made with one hand that caused Denison to smother the Bearcats beneath an avalanche of points. In the good work of upholding the reputation of D. H. S., “Solemn” Fike, the elongated center of the Jackets played an important part, and throughout the season could be found doing his bit and practically always placing the ball in the hands of the right man below and giving the opposing center little chance to even touch the sphere. “Big” Gaines, forward, played an aggressive, determined game every minute he was on the floor. Combining speed and aggressiveness with ability to loop the basket, he accounted for many of the points of the season. Kosie Jones, playing forward opposite Gaines, was a good passer and playing deep in the corners of the court often rushed out to meet the ball coming down the floor and the opposing team found itself two points behind. The real find of the season was Jack Moore who played an outstanding guard. Rangy and light on his feet Moore was found to be barring the passage of many a good forward. He never seemed to waste energy and always occupied the midst of every play. =- rj BASKETBALL “Stan” Hearrell, although not counted as a first string man was used as a substitute guard and when called upon always put forth the best he had. It w'as in the district meet that he so nobly accomplished the task he set about to do. In “Knotty” Mosse the coaches made another find. At Dallas during the Highland Park game it was “Knotty” who seemed to furnish the needed punch to turn defeat into victory in the second game and give the team confidence in the first that all but upset the equilibrium of their opponents. “Si” Mulkey playing forward was hard to stop when he was right and accounted for many of the points in the season’s total. He was unable to keep up the good pace he set at the first of the season, although he fought determinedly in every contest in which he played. Vinson Stanphill, coming up from the subs of ’30, was used in the role of utility man, mainly as guard and center. Playing guard he went after opposing goal shooters in smashing style, and succeeded in keeping the number of goals shot against him down to a low total. Coaches Ward and Bishop were indeed lucky to have a capable and willing manager in Robert Clift who was always on hand to perform his duties and perform them well. 1031 SEVENTY-FIVE - RESULT OF GAMES Denison 61 Greenville 21 Denison 30 Estellene 18 Denison 30 Kstellene 19 Denison 28 Denton 22 Denison 10 Denton 21 Denison 29 Highland Park 21 Denison 27 Highland Park 26 Denison 28 Pilot Point 31 Denison 40 Pilot Point 20 Denison 44 Kemp 38 Denison 14 Sherman 9 Denison 22 Denton 29 Denison 19 Denton 29 Denison 35 Sherman 22 Denison 35 Highland Park 38 Denison 28 Highland Park 20 Denison 49 Hopewell 7 Denison . . . 29 Paris 33 SEVENTY-SIX 1331 SEVENTY-SEVEN ■O' g . . =1U31 Ten men lettered in track: E.

KIGHTY-THRKK THE HI-Y CLUB The Denison Hi-Y Club was organized in 1922 with about ten members and since then it has experienced a remarkable growth in membership and usefulness. It now has about sixty members. Mr. Fisk was its first sponsor and Mr. Kimble is the present sponsor. A plan of activities is made out each year by the officers which include a Father and Son banquet, a party, and usually an outing. The annual Hi-Y conference at Gainesville was attended by a delegation. Gospel teams are organized and perform with wonderful success. This year the teams held services in the Trinity and Waples Memorial Methodist, First Presbyterian, First Christian, and First Baptist churches. They also held services at the Lions Club and at Whitesboro. A meeting is held eveiy Monday at the school with local ministers and business men as speakers. The president for the first term this year was Don Jones, and the second term president was Donald Mayes. The two secretaries were Frank Lambert and Morris Wagner. The sargeants-at-arms were Adrian Clark and James Boren. The school year of 1930-31 was a very successful one and it is hoped that the following years will be equally successful. The purpose of the Denison Hi-Y Club is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community, higher standards of Christian character.

KIGHTY-FIVK ' THE RED HEAD CLUB This club, although the youngest of the Denison High School is nevertheless the most showy and colorful. They are to be seen at all school activities and have never been known to be without their club emblems. Membership in the club is hardest of all to obtain since to be eligible for election you must be endowed by nature with a flaming thatch without the aid of which you are forced to remain in darkness as to its secrets and obligations. The club has evidently accomplished that which it set out to do. That is, to encourage the growing of redder and longer hair. This may be seen in the fact that w’hen organized the president only boasted of hair reaching to his collar, while at present it hangs half over it. Several times during the year the club attended barber shops to study the effect of different hair tonics upon the hair, at present two of the members are taking International Correspondence School courses on methods of determining whether the color of the hair is natural or artificial in order to keep spies and bolshevics out of their midst. The club at present consists of the following selected members: Wilson Brooks, Marian Camp, Mary Forman, Ray Freeman, Kdith Hardin, Pete Lambert, Harvey Malone, Frances McCormick, Kathleen Pierson, Harold Ransom, Mildred Ruth Reed, Orleana Sanders, Ralph Senter, Red Wells, Arthur Wood, Charles Cointepas. THE GIRL RESERVES •O' The Girl Reserves, which is next to the youngest organization in Denison High, was organized March 21, 1930, with Miss Cornish, Miss Evans, and Mrs. W. B. Munson, Jr., as sponsors. The present officers are: President, Betty Morgan; Vice-Presi- dent, Ruth Ernest; Secretary, Dorothy Trammel; and Treasurer, Neta Scoggins. V The symbol of the Girl Reserves is a triangle within a circle, w’hich pictures to them three sides of a growing personality; the physical, mental, and spiritual, and their dependency on each other, penetrating an ever widening circle, the world. The national purpose is “to find and give the best,” the school purpose “to look up, love, laugh, and live.” First Row :—Virginia Barrow, Nelda Bennett, Marie Carter, Mavis Clymer, Gladys Collins, Evelyn Cornell, Mary Virginia Forman.

V THE BOYS’ GLEE CLUB i V The Boys Glee Club has enjoyed one of its most interesting and beneficial years work since its organization in 1925 by Miss Lois Wilson. Under the direction of Miss Beulah Belle Bennett the club has sung popular, semi classical, and religious songs on a number of programs in Denison as well as neighboring cities. The club is fortunate in that it has two accompanists, Elsie Williams and Beverly Powers. The soloists are Roy Daniel, Jack Reed, Jack Reavis, Paul Ashburn, and Abner Lewis. The Boys Glee Club of the High School is open to any boys who like to sing. This opportunity was enjoyed by twenty-five members. The personnel of the cluh is as follows: Elsie Williams, Beverly Powers, Clar- ence Benjamin, Winston Byers, Milo Cox, Roy Daniel, Mitchell Landers, Abner Lewis, William Mason, J. P.

NINKTY V ORDER OF RAINBOW GIRLS One of the most active of school organizations is Assembly No. 23 of the Order of the Rainbow for Girls. The order is sponsored by members of the Masons and Eastern Stars, and is composed of girls of school age, from 13 to 20. The Order of the Rainbow for Girls not only is beneficial for its social activities and associations, but for its influence on the lives of the girls. It is based on the principles of noble ideals, right thinking, and a life of service, and inspires right living and faith in ourselves. The Denison Rainbow Assembly was founded in the year 1923. One of the most important of the Rainbow activities for this year has been the creation of a drill team, which has performed before the Eastern Stars of Denison, a guest of whom was Mrs. Bessie Garth, Worthy Grand Matron of the Order of the Eastern Stars, Grand Chapter of Texas, and the Eastern Stars of Sherman. SHIP AHOY Ship Ahoy!” Aye! Aye! Sir! Man overboard! “Throw out a life line,” and other nautical expressions (including: J. C. s sickly moans) were heard on the evening: of December 5, 1930, at the High School Auditorium when the good ship S. S. Bel Santo put out to sea with a jolly crowd of passengers on board. En route it is discovered that Mary Ann Davis, fearing that her father will force her to marry Pierre De Boeuf, a bogus count, has disappeared from her home in Bel Santo, a country in the revolution zone, where her father, Ward Davis, is U. S. Consul. Davis has wired his son Carl, in New York to return at once to Bel Santo. Carl after some hesitation takes his girl and her aunt with him. Jack Dennis, a playwright, helps to get the aunt on board and also goes to Bel Santo himself. Mary Ann was later discovered by Carl to be on the same ship and she has fallen in love with Jack. Herb Mullin happens along at the right time and is elected “King of Glovania” and helps very much to complicate matters, but at the end helps to prevent a revolution in Bel Santo and helps in bringing about the four marriages which bring the play to a happy ending. The main characters were: Mary Foreman, Howard Setzer, J. C. Essary, Jack Reavis, Ruth Ernest, Adrian Clark, Jack Reed, Clayton Lyle, Virginia Barrow, Don Jones, Frank Lambert, and Katherine Garza.

The entertainment this year was in the form of a street carnival with John Reid Compton, Ralph Elliott, and Finis Crutchfield as the three barkers. A While the audience was busily filling its mouth with peanuts the stage revealed one of the famous Gold Dust Twins, or Martha Jane Clayton, on her toes. Next was the famous Crystal gazer, Madam Scherizada, or Phyllis Phillips. She was able to answer any and all questions asked her. “Because he forgot to wear roller skates on his last date” wras given in answer to the question “Why does Mr. McDaniel have a blister on his heal?” Next we saw the wonderful snake charmer, Mr. Full-o-Hooey. This part was played by the talented young Horace Browning, and how about the snakes? Well ask him! V 4 V Some might think they know a few lines of Shakespeare, but after hearing the outburst of Shakespearian poetry by Maviso Clymero, or Mavis Clymer, they begin to realize how much they don’t know. She did not speak the soliloquoy in Hamlet as one might expect, but quoted from one of the most difficult and unfamiliar plays entitled “Little Boy Blue, Come Blow Your Horn.” The cui tains were next pulled back, literally, and our eyes partook of the amazing sight of the “Pig Without Horns,” seen but once. But most splendid of all was the long famous “Wood Simps Dance” by Katherine Garza. This dance cannot be portrayed so as to make a picture in the readers mind, but those who were there can tell you of their laugh. After the most amusing part and before the fulfilling part of the evening, the following awards were bestowed on fortunate people in our midst. Miss Rosemary Smith was chosen Queen of May and Finis Crutchfield the Vagabond King. The voters displayed wonderful judgment in the following elections: Jeanette Wallis as the sil- liest in the crowd; Horace Browning as the one who ate the most; Ben Munson, the village sheik; and Ralph Elliott the abogabillo, that is the one who talks most but says the least. The auditorium was vacated after the freezer containing the Dixie Cups was found empty. So good-bye. Kids, till next May 1st! NINETY-THREE V On time. Denison Hi Special, arrived in Austin on track No. 26, Friday morning, May 8. 1931. The train made up in Denison with Martha Jane Clayton, engine; Jack V Moore, coal car; and Miss Carrie Johnson and M. M. Marshall, the two coaches. “The Constiution, a Heritage,” gave the engine enough power to pull through “Two Preliminaries,” “Semi-Finals,” and to stop on track No. 2 in “Finals.” The 2,000 spectators were surprised when the engine of the Denison Hi Special came so near to its destination. The coal car followed the engine a little way but broke off just within the city limits of “Semi-Finals.” It took a long time to prepare this train for the long hard journey and we hope that it goes just a little farther next year. The Denison Hi Special arrived in Denison on track No. 1 Saturday evening. The engine was out switching the morning of May 11, but probably for its last time while the coal car and coaches will be used later on. Who’s heading the train next year ? ? ? JUNIOR-SENIOR PARTY It was at the second basketball game with Sherman that the Seniors made their challenge. The challenge was the larger attendance at the game, and the wager was a party. The entertainment was held in the Keebaugh-Martin Studios and was attended by a very large representation of both the Senior and Junior classes. Several kinds of games and dancing were indulged in. Later in the evening candies and mints were served to the crowd. As the Seniors were the losers of the challenge they entertained the Juniors very delightfully. The students were attractively decorated with the Junior and Senior class colors. NINETY-FOUR 1031 ffiumnr atiit Aiia Thai Which I lath Happened! SEPTEMBER 8.—Nine months prison term begins.

ONE HUNDRED THREE THE DAILY MUSS Veil. XIII. OF DENISON HIGH DENISON. TEXAS, APRIL 1, 1931 No. 13 FACULTY ABOLISHES EXAMS MR. D. H.S. BUM BUYS PAPER At assembly Tuesday last, Supt. Hughes brought wild joy to the hearts of our 2,000 students. He stated that after prolonged consideration the school board had decided for the future to abolish all exams in Denison High School. The outburst of yells and the clamorous demonstrations which followed, told more plainly than words the delight felt by the students. There are many causes for the change. It is believed by those in authority that the instruction imparted here is of such an excellent character that at the end of the term, the pupils are complete masters of the subjects. To an increasing extent each year exams are considered antiquated and probably the other great high schools will follow our lead here as elsewhere. MISS CARRIE JOHNSON MAKES A STATEMENT Miss Johnson astonished her Senior English classes by making a statement substantially as follows: That she has come to the unshakeable conclusion that study of English is a w'aste of time and detrimental to the growing mind; that she would urge all students to avoid literature in after life, since it is only the invention of an aristocracy of snobs who had nothing better to do; she would advise the substitution of agriculture or kindred subjects for the English course, and that she is going to ask the school board to reduce the English requirements immediately, despite the opposition of Mr. Casey and others. ONE HUNDRER FOUR Today’s local event which has attracted the attention of all was the purchase by Mr I). H. S. Bum of a full, unbroken, unfiled package of writing paper. This was the first sale of paper to Mr. Bum since 1928. A great crowd followed Mr. Bum to the near by store to witness the transaction, as the more worldly-wise were from Missouri when Bum’s intention became generally known. Owing to the expense and difficulty connected with such deals, as w’ell as their utter uselessness, it is not probable that the present Freshmen will see the purchase repeated. ‘215 TO BE CHANGED” 1931 The ninth period study hall or rest period will be changed soon. For the past few years this session has been held in Room 215. This session of our club will start meeting in the cafeteria. Refreshments will be served and the last numbers of Whiz Bang and other popular monthly magazines will be on hand. ‘CLASSIFIED DADS Wanted—One nice young cow that gives fresh buttermilk. A. D. Campbell, Jr. Found—One compact in my car. if you explain to Inez. Ralph Hodges. THIS PAGE IS PUBLISHED IN THE INTEREST OF TRUTH LATEST FEATURE IN “Faculty Musical Talent EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM Completes Organization” V V m A new swimming: pool is to be installed in the gym. Plans have just been completed whereby the students of Denison High School may receive expert instructions in fancy swimming, diving, and life saving. These plans reveal the fact that by merely pushing a button the present gym floor will be hoisted skyward and reveal to the eye a most beautiful swimming pool made of the finest tile and fully equipped with the most elaborate aquatic devices. The pool will be open every day of the year. Hours will be from 8 a. m. to 12 midnight. There will be no charges for instructions and suits and towels will be furnished free. For instructions in jack knifing, aeroplane and other fancy diving make class application to Prof. G. P. Brous, first floor of High School. Those interested in life saving will be unable to find a more competent instructor in this are than Mr. Clyde E. Hughes. The young ladies of the High School will be ably cared for in fancy and endurance swimming by Miss Lila Sullivan and her expert asisstant, Miss Mildred Walker. Both of these instructors hold various records at home and abroad, having appeared before kngs and queens as well as counts and countesses. FRESHMEN KEEP YOUR TICKETS” The school board announced today that an elevator would be installed in this building by next term. This elevator is to have a capacity of 100 students. The machinery for this wonderful addition will be run from the office. The east stairs are to be done away with so as to make room for the elevator. ---------------o----- ANNOUNCEMENT Miss Conklin says she is sure the gym would be better liked by the students if a dozen or more soft beds were purchased and placed in there; also for the teachers not to count the pupils absent the period ofter their gym class as they might be asleep and she doesn’t like to wake them. It seemed a few weeks back that a great change must come in the musical world if it was to be strong enough to hold out until the end of the term. That change showed itself in a recent faculty meeting when it was decided that our student body should have the privilege of hearing the foremost artists of the world. Seats are now to be had at the special rate of three dollars each. You should take an evening off and come out and let Dr. Howell thrill you. Earle Bishop and Joe Ward play upon your heart strings. To Herr Hughes’ tenor voice invites you to the lovely cadences of immortal melodies, and Monsieur Herm stirs your good American blood with “Oh, Howf I hate to get up in the morning.’’ Besides the vocal enjoyment, talent will be displayed in the operas, the symphony orchestra, and the vaudeville stage. The faculty talent brings you the shining lights of them all. Your life will be the merrier for the entertainment. And it will be but the beginning of a long and happy companionship between your classroom horrors and the master Magicians. IMPORTANT MEETINGS The school board had a meeting. The students had a meeting. The school board and the students both had a meeting for the same thing. The thing was the students wanted a week off for class day. The school board did not want to give it to them, but the students wanted it but the school board didn’t. The students said “we go to school too much now.” The school board said they did not. The students said they did. The school board said we run things around this dump. The students said “you’ve tried it long enough, it’s our time now.” The school board got mad. The students got mad, therefore they all got mad. The school board started to fight. The students started to fight. The school board won. The students lost. Therefore the students got a twelve months class day (expelled). ONE HUNDRED FIVE v v —1931 FOOTBALL FACTS Football is an effort on the part of twenty-two boys to occupy the same place at the same time. It is classed as a game but looks more like a gang fight. It is called “Football” because the ball is about a foot long. It takes twenty-two to play the game, and somewhere near twice that many to keep them in repair. An automobile is durability itself beside a football player. In our large high schools the football garage is constantly filled during the fall with football players who have had to go into the repair shop for a thorough overhauling. The chief objects used in the game, besides the players are refree’s whistle, two goal posts, a barrel of splints, fifty yards of adhesive tape, a loud virulent yell, a carload of flags and several hundred rooters with brass lined throats. A rooter is nothing more than a baseball fan with a cold weather carburator. He can stand for hours in freezing weather and yell, without disturbing anyone outside of his own congressional district. The football is used in the game to locate the disturbance. Wherever the ball is, there is no more peace than there is in a love feast with an insurgent in it. The object of the game is to take the ball down the field to a goal, over, under and through the opposition, without the aid of axes, saws, ice picks, carving knives, battering rams or dynamite. Those who have seen a good football team in action will realize how little these things are needed anyway. Football is not a peaceable game because of the great objection of the team which has not the ball, to its progress down the field. A football player is the greatest stand patter in the world. If things cannot go his way, he does not want them to go at all. Some football players are so unscrupulous as to fall down before the advancing runner and turn his ankle by getting it twisted up in his ribs. Frequently, also, the man with the ball will snag himself severely on a broken bone, while going through an opponent; or will dent himself seriously on an adversary’s teeth; or slip on a slippery face and twist his knees until he yells with pain. Because of these facts, football is not considered a parlor game and is making little headway in the female seminaries. Football is an earnest game and requires various talents. A player should weigh one hundred eighty pounds; and should have copper-fastened teeth, re-inforced concrete shins, a lithe, limber backbone and angle iron knees. He should also possess a duplicate nose if possible. The player should be so hard he can dent a locomotive, and yet so limber he can emerge from beneath twenty-one men, reach out his arms twenty-seven feet, and plant the ball between the goal posts. He should also be able to grab a thirteen inch shell around the waist and hold it until help arrives. Football is played mostly in high schools and colleges, because by the time one is out of college, he has sense enough not to play it. An old player can be told by the way he does not dodge street cars , two ton trucks, hoodlums and lightning. If they hit him it is their own fault, and he does not hold himself responsible for the consequences. ONE HUNDRER SIX V NORTH TEXAS IN 1980 In 11)31 I thought that Denison was about as large as it would ever be. But time and improvements have brought growth to the old city. Not only has it grown but it has swallowed up the neighboring towns (including Sherman) and is now called Deniman (the son’s grown up, eh?). I realized more than ever the size of Deniman not long ago when I went through in my auto-plane, why I thought I was going through New York or some other metropolis. I decided to stop at the public library and pass away a few hours. I picked up one of the many histories or books of Fete (Frank) I ambert, whose pen name is Swanky Brooks, entitled the “Class of ’31 as They Are Today.” After I started this book I stayed more than a few hours enjoying the many familiar tales. This book is written as a number of short stories, some of which I shall relate to you. Swanky’s history gave a very interesting characterization of the leading characters of the well known mystery stories of Frank Moffett, who succeeded S. S. Van Dine. The tale concernng Leon King’s well known invention, the rocket plane, in which he successfully made a trip to Mars and bi ought back with him Dorothy Hayes, who had been visiting prominent citizens of that meteor; namely, A. D. Campbell and Leona Douglas, was very thrillng. The next anecdote was an account of the party thrown by Eugene Harvey, the well-known civil engineer, in celebration of the completion of a bridge across the Pacific Ocean. This project furnishes refueling stations, owned by Billie Pickthall, for the trans-Pacific flyers. Ruby Huffer and Donald Mays, and proves very accommodating to the air-mail flyers, Eugene Moye and Hugh Mulkey, who make this trip twice a day. Along with the mail goes the daily shipment of fresh eggs furnished by the Ashburn-Clark chicken ranch. The Kerr and the Mason Fruit Jar Companies have recently been purchased and combined by Fred Salas, and by his successful management he has been able to shock Wall Street; however, much of his success is due to his clever broker, Abner Lewis. Evidently Clayton Lyle rated high in the estimation of the historian, as much space is given to a vivid description of his appeal to Congress for the appropriation of $200,000,000,000 with which the Red River Dam will be completed. The motion was seconded by Vera May Nelson, who voiced her opinions, and Don Jones, the speaker of the house, favored the bill; but the president, Claude James, vetoed it, thinking it was for the good of the people. At the last Olympic games, which were held in Deniman, Harry Johnson, the head director, presented a large estate, several thousand dollars, and a beautiful gold loving cup to Hulen Jackson, the high point man of the day. Melvin Vaughan, second in line of the winners, received a summer home in Palm Beach, where he will be at home with his wife, formerly Miss Helen Overturf. Lucy Foster, a collector of antiques, created much excitement by driving an Austin, which was all the rage in 1931. ONE HUNDRED EIGHT DJ31 NORTH TEXAS IN 1980 After reading the few stories which I have just mentioned to you, I picked up the history, put it under my arm, and strolled down Kssary Boulevard, named for the prominent real estate man of the time, J. C. Kssary, and entered the home of Klvin Gaines and wife, formerly Norene Scoggins. Here I felt perfectly safe as they had just taken out fire insurance from Troy McCrary, owner of the Deniman Fire Insurance Company. But while peacefully talking and reminiscencing with Mrs. and Mr. Gaines we suddenly found ourselves enveloped by flames. This was caused by an explosion, originating in the laboratory, next door, owned by Walton Jones, and John Reid Compton. Many lives were endangered, but William Cooper, fire Chief, was soon to the rescue with his courageous boys, and because of the bravery displayed in the rescue the fire department was presented a reward by the mayor, Mary Lduise Cox. After all this scare I needed a little lunch, so I dropped in the nearest cafe, owned and operated by Artha Blair Crutchfield. The waiter, Marion Higgins, gave me a menu and also a tip that they had a special prepared by Rose Howard and Kdith Gault, the best cooks in town. I took it, and was it good? well, I'll say it was! And when I presented my check to the cashier, who took it but Josephine Shelton, herself. I meet with an old friend, Ed Collins, who was a traveling salesman and stopping in the city for a few hours. At his suggestion we attended the Pecos Theatre owned by Alton Allen. Minnie Jo Adams was at the window selling tickets and Roy Baker and Vernon Beckham were head ushers. Music was furnished by the Pecos orchestra with James Steed director. His main soloists were Sylvia Neef, Virginia llanka, R. C. Vaughn, and Harold Markham. The chorus lead by Dorothy Trammell and consisting of six other girls, Estelle and Murvelle Bean, Ernestine Tripp, Rosemary Smith, Nina Ruth Perry, and Mildred Noe, were the hit of the season. Gladys Anderson gave a ballet dance, and Virginia Barrow demonstrated her ability at juggling. After the show I said goodbye to Ed and decided to engage a room for the night before it was too late. I stopped at the Boren Boren Hotel, run by my old friends Jim and Ray. I stopped in the lobby and glanced over the daily Herald, edited by Ruth Cox, and read where Nell Calvert was returning from Europe, where she had been studying to be a doctor. The headlines of the society page stated the marriage of Bennie Brown and Charles Butlan. Turning on through the paper I noticed that Jimmie McCarver, the librarian of Senior High, had been in an automobile accident and was at the Hastings Legge clinic. I visited Jimmie Mae and we talked until the nurse, Netta Louise Senner, informed me that I must leave. On my return to the hotel, I remembered Sw’anky’s history which I had in my pocket, so I went to my room to continue my stories. I read where Richard Goodall, after much experimenting, had invented a pocket heater which was very handy in cool weather. Just pull it out of your pocket, press a button, and pronto you are getting warm. This was a wonderful invention but his friend and fellow workman, Stan Hearrell, perfected it. By adding a little more metal and another button it w-as made to be accommodating in the warmer weather as well. By pressing one button it served as a heater, by pressing the other, a fan. More discoveries have been made too. Robert Richard and J. C. Elmore are still finding elements. They have found 250 so far and are still keeping up the record. ONE HUNDRED NINE NORTH TEXAS IN 1980 The next story was told in pictures, sketched by Ernest Caddell and painted by Helen Hood. You’ll have to see those pictures before you know that story. William Coonrod recently found a new island situated in the lower Pacific, and is making trips there quite often. He first saw this island through some “Million-Mile-Glasses,” made by Lewis Christman, while at one of Billie’s refueling stations. The government has sent a special envoy, Sterling Hart, to this island in order to make terms of annexation with the United States. Then came the tale of the Radio-Vision. This was worked out by Frank Emert and is remarkable in that one can not only hear but see the every action and the very appearance of characters many miles away. This story reminded me of one I had noticed in my room. I layed the book aside and turned the radio on. The first person I saw and heard was the announcer over LM41Z3, Ralph Elliott. He first announced the male quartet, Glen Price, Walter Spinks, Calvin Gaines, and Morris Wagner. They sang many new songs among whiah was “You Broke My Heart.” The words were written by Dorothy Cross and the music by Ruth Wooden. Next was a Paramount Production directed by Irene Childers and written by Ishmael Gardner. The leading ladies were Martha Jane Clayton and Fern Kennedy, the hero, Howard Setzer. The last of the program was another Wooden-Cross composition “Just You” sung by Roy Daniel. I turned the dial and heard the daily entertainers, Otis Hodges and Ciare Hutchison. I had had a hard full day and was very tired, so I soon fell asleep. Next morning when Harvey Malone brought my breakfast tray, he handed me a letter from the Senior High School, signed by the Superintendent, Arthur Mosse, Jr., saying he had found I wras in town for a few days and wondered if I would give the students a little entertainment. I agreed and phoned him that I would. On arriving I found the school very much different from what it was in 1931. It was much larger, had a swimming pool, had carpets in the halls and on the stairs, and the cushioned bottomed seats had individual water fountains. I was greeted by the Superintendent and the Principal, Phyllis Phillips. After an hour or two of amusement, the students went to their classes and I looked around. The large library was under control of Jessie Mae Cox, the assistant librarian, as Jimmie Mae was still in the hospital. New departments had been added; an art department under the charge of Mary Virginia Foreman; a piano department under Nanine Standerfer; and a vocal department with Edwina Williams in charge. As there were so many students the cafeteria covered the whole lower floor, and was controlled by Virginia I-ee Hood. The head cooks were Ida Belle Cuitis and Mary Fae Davis; and waiters Juanita DeFratus and Virginia Dolan. I recognized only a few teachers as old classmates. Sybil Foster was commercial teacher; Dorothy Kohfeldt and Patty Witten, gym instructors; Estella Ken-nemer, math; and Clinta Jones, English teacher. After leaving the Senior High, I noticed a new building, one I had never seen before. Approaching I noticed it was full of students but very quiet. But this was accounted for soon. It was the Shilling-Simmons school for the dumb. G. L. Morrison was an instructor in this school. I soon left here though, as they couldn’t talk to me, and went on my way. I took my auto-plane and myself out to the airport owned by Barton Preston. Here was a school of Aeronautics directed by William Luton and assisted by Sally Jo Plummer, the specialists in Parachute jumping being I la Rumbeck. V ONE HUNDRED TEN NORTH TEXAS IN 1980 While looking over the grounds, I was astonished to see a passenger plane coming at full speed. As it stopped, who should step out but Hoy McFarland. From him I learned that the plane had come from Australia. Roy and his friend Doc May had been training a group of Kangaroos for the world-famous circus owned by Lela Mae Savage and Elizabeth Singleton. V r Coming back to town I noticed someone sitting on top of a high pole drawing music out of the air. The people below were for blocks around but I was told that it was my old friend Frances Tuttle. The music stopped and I wandered farther into the park. I observed a very interesting but peculiar looking building. Investigating I found it was an ice palace. On one side was a table bearing the names of the designer Lois McComas, and the architect Maurice Young. Just under the surface were arranged musical instruments of many kinds by Dot Scheid. When the skaters crossed the floor marvelous melodies were produced. These instruments were so arranged that the expert skaters Corine Moorman, Orlean Largent, Alma Prewitt, Juanita Parker and Gladys Singleton could play any tune that Paderwiski himself could play. One room was devoted to Manicure Golf. The Pro was Marie Roberts. But Ps about to freeze so I went to the polo field. A very exciting game was in progress. I recognized as captain of one of the sides. Bill La Londe and the goal keeper Alton Zachary. I was told the horses belonged to a very famous horse breeder, Velma Whitted. After this a game was started on motorcycles by James Skelton and Clyde Smithson. But I decided nothing could be more interesting than Swanky s book. I opened to the page I last read and began again. I read that there had been a very sensational display of sculpture by Zoe Singleton and Yuma Prewitt. One was a bust of Jennie Ree Looper who had swum from the Cape of Good Hope to Cape Horn. The next was the account of Bessie Spratling and Ruth Werline's expedition up the Amazon River where they thought they had discovered a tribe of purple Indians, but they were too late as Pauline Williams was already there. Then came the interesting story of the Wood Planet which was named after its discoverer, Arthur. Then was the story of the new’ solution which was guaranteed to grow hair. Different lengths was according to different amounts as was told on the label. This was made by Aline Zachary. A Yatching Club was established with Inez Vaughn as president. Refreshments were served here every meeting and the principal dish was a cinnamon-flavored, tomato-colored, carrot-shaped, melon created by Jeanette Wallis and Dora Vaughn, It was time for me to go so I took the book back to the library and there I met Ethel Waters and Lillian Worsham who had just returned from Paris where they had been designing dresses. And as I left I saw Billie Vaughan who had become famous as a columnist. His articles are read eagerly by all progressive readers. But I didn t have time to talk with him because my business was calling me. I hope in a few' more years, however, to again visit the town of my enjoyable days.

According to Mr. Ward, a wart is one who continues to be ineligable when they should be on the grid iron fighting for Denison High. Mr. Kimble thinks that a wart is one who thinks that he should have higher grades than appear on his test papers. Miss Cartw'right says that she has no definition for a wart but that she has several good specimens in her classes. Miss Sullivan says, “one of these freshmen that continues not to bring their song books to assembly. Mr. Woodward says a wart for example, using the one on your nose for an illustration, every place you look there are some of the warts of high school. Miss Shreeves, quoting her opinion of a wart, says “these pupils who are continually mislaying their library books. Mr. Dickson thinks that there is not a better speciman of a wart than one of these students that refuses to hand in a picture for the “Yellow Jacket. Mr. Brous’ definition of a wart is a student that continues to ask “What’s this? during lab. According to the vocabulary of Mr. Norton, a wart is one who fails to bring up his daily assignments. Then there was the Scotchman who wore chains for suspenders to keep ’em from giving. Ask that Wells boy about those girls in Gainesville.
