Almost immediately after the founding of Denison, plans were made to educate its young people. Early in 1873 fifteen thousand dollars in bonds was voted for the erection of a school building. The Town Company of Denison donated one thousand dollars and a block of lots on Sears Street for the school building. These lots could be exchanged for a more suitable location if they desired. Men from the north side, as well as from the south side, made generous offers in lots provided the school building was placed on them. After all offers were con- sidered, the present' site, 700 West Main Street, was chosen for the location for the school. The City Council met April 17, 1873 to examine plans for the Educational Institution. The Council found the plans of Captain Wheelock, architect of Sherman, to be the most suitable. His plans were for a two-story building with a basement. The building was to be built of red brick with white stone trimmings. The first floor was to have four rooms and two cloak rocms. The entrance to the building was by two wide stairways in the front tower. The bonds were advertised for sale. There was some misunderstanding and the erection of the school building was delayed. This School was known as the Washington School, and was the first, free graded school in Texas, not the first free school for there were others in Texas. The Washington School had the elementary grades as well as high school grades. It met the needs of Denison as a high school until 1912, when it was razed to give way for a new building. Mr. Denison Nelson bought the white stone of the old building and used it in the erection of his market. In 1913, the present high school was completed and served Denison's needs un- til increased attendance, a broader curriculum, and greater demands for better labora- tory and library facilities called for more room. The addition, includding a spacious gymnasium, the manual training room, and another class room was built in 1925. Now Denison High School accommodates more than eight hundred pupils. As we look back over the long procession of graduates which Denison High School has sent out into the professional, business, and social world, and as we count the years of cxistence to be more than sixty, we may say with becoming modesty that Denison has the oldest high school in Texas and the greatest in service.

B., Litt. D. Superintendent of Schools Message to The Seniors You who are about to graduate are of particular interest to the school. Most of you have been with us during the four years of High School. Many have spent your school years in Denison. Our success as a school will be measured by the habits, attitudes and skills you have acquired. We have attempted, in the language of Presi- dent Glen Frank, to teach you how to keep your head and how to use your head in the swirl of this rapidly changing civilization. After graduation you will begin another chapter of life. Some will go to eollegeg others will look for jobs. The latter may expect difficulties. You naturally have expected to be given a place in the world and work to do. But jobs are few and applicants many. Yours has been called a lost generation because few seem to want your services and because depression years have made you physically soft. But youth must not accept such fate with sheep-like apathy. There are jobs for the well prepared and the determined. Go after them. May God bless you. Xil ' 'Dl launmau 1. swan: lim B. McDANIEL, B. A., M. A. Principal of Schools Message to The Seniors You are to be congratulated on your successful conclusion of eleven years of school work. You can now look back upon them with pleasant memories. You are starting your real life at a time when many people fear the future years. Young people like you must decide what the future is to be. In your school work you have seen that honesty, industry, and high ideals gain the most enduring and worthwhile things. You will find the same to be true in your new life. Do your part now as you have in school and you will be happy, successful, and a joy to your friends. I f dl . - .ARS l .KVZUKI 1sN 'll l ZNT ikVll1i 2! FACULTY 4 'I' MRS.

TI-IE CLASS OF 1936 Murray Marshall, Valedictorian Ruth Baggett, Salutatorian OFFICERS Herbert Gentry, President Nelda Bryant, Secretary Tommy Linn, Vice-President Leroy Walker, Treasurer MAMA' S AFFAIR The Senior Class Play, Mama's Affair, was presented April 16. The cast was made up of seven of the Senior Class. They were: Dorothy Julien, Jamesene Wigzell, Florence Graham, Virginia Houghton, Bivings Thomas, Cecil Spindle, and Tommy Jay. The story centers around a self-centered mother fDorothy Julienl who de- voted her life to being ill and planning her daughter's future. Her daughter fVir- ginia Houghtonj is to marry the son fCecil Spindlej of her most intimate friend 1Jamesene Wigzellj. A doctor fTommy Jayl is called in and he sees that it is the daughter who is ill and not her mother. He prescribes a rest for the daughter and in the last act breaks up the marriage plans and marries the daughter himself. A bellhop in the hotel where the party is staying, played by Bivings Thomas furnishes the comedy effect together with Florence Graham, the doctor's housekeeper, whose Irish wit and keen insight motivates the plot to a happy ending. CLASS DAY The Denison High School Seniors held their annual Class Day, Tuesday, May 19, at Woodlake, the Rialto Theater, and in the school gymnasium with the faculty of the school as guests. The Seniors enjoyed games and a picnic lunch from 10 a. m. at Woodlake, re- turning t'o Denison in the afternoon to attend the Rialto. A dance in the gymnasium that night, to which the Juniors were invited, climaxed a perfec day. Faculty members and parents chaperoned the picnic and dance. BACCALAUREATE The Baccalaureate sermon for the Senior Class of 1936 was delivered in the auditorium of the High School, Sunday night, May 31, by Rev. S. M. Black of the Waples Memorial Methodist Church. The Seniors entered to the strains of The March of the Priests. After the invocation there followed special music by the Waples Memorial Choir, under the direction of Miss Estelle McElvaney. Reverend Black spoke earnestly to the Seniors and to the audience of their responsibility to the future as Christian citizens. His address was closed with a short prayer. The Seniors retired from the auditorium in solemn procession while the audience remained seated. JUNIOR RECEPTION The Annual Junior Reception, honoring the Seniors, took place June, 1936. This event climaxes the Juniors' farewell to the Seniors and is looked forward to with pleasure from year to year by both classes. The High School Gymnasium and Library were very attractively decorated for the occasion with crepe paper streamers and colored lights in the class colors. Music for dancing in the gym was furnished by the Carl Casteel Orchestra. Bridge, checkers, dominoes, monopoly, and ping pong were enjoyed in the Library. At inermis- sion, Freshmen and Sophomore Girl Reserves served ice cream in class colors. Iced punch was served throughout the evening. Chaperons were Miss Inez Cartwright, Junior Class sponsorg Miss Carrie John- son, Senior Class sponsorg Mr. McDaniel, and other members of the High School fac- ulty, and parents of the Juniors and Seniors. TWP NTY I' IVE X 1 IETWNS QKWIH Ql- - ' ' CONFERRING CLASS MANTLE One of the events of Commencement Week is the conferring of the class mantle upon the Junior Class at the closing day of school. This traditional ceremony is made impressive by the appearance upon the stage of the President of the outgoing class, clad in the robe bearing the numerals of by-gone classes-the last numeral being that of the present class. After an admonitory speech, the Senior President transfers the mantle to the shoulders of the Junior President. ' 'STEPPED-ON SEN IORS It's not the things that we have done, But it's what we've got to dog We always seem to have just begun For there's ever something new. We have to work and study hard And stay up late at nightg They give us Seniors so much to do That it isn't exactly right. But we'll be through some of these days, We'll march around so proud, If they ask us what's the reason, We'll tell them right out loud: We've worked and studied and won, And we're just letting you know We've fought a terrible battle, We think it's time to go. -Inez Moorman. CLASS PROPHECY I was very pleasantly surprised the other day when my former classmate, Emma Gene Seale, visited me. She has long been internationally famous as a novel- ist. I suggested that we visit the High School and see some of our old friends. We called a taxi, and whom do you suppose greeted us with a smiling face but our good friend, Leroy Walker. Leroy, because of his ability to drive a taxi with more ease and safety than anyone else, is always so rushed that we were fortunate, indeed, to have him drive us. When we arrived at the High School we saw the very excelllent janitors, George Brunson and Ray Covington, who promised to show us the Fish pond, one of their latest beautifications of the campus. The mailman was just leaving the High School and from behind the huge mail bag, we saw Harry Verdun Kelsey's bright and shining face. We found that the High School had changed very much since that year of the sensational graduating class- 1936. It seems that everything is done for the entertainment of the pupils. We were directed to the ballroom where Dorothy Sowder is the dancing instructor with Mary Kennemer as her assistant. Dorothy's male students learn very fast, but she seems to have quite a bit of trouble with the girls. When we went to the gymnasium, we expected to see a volleyball court but to our amazement they had a swimming pool and a swell diving board. Sibyl Adams, Doris Brackett, J. C. Willoughby, and Clarence Trice are swimming instructors. We hear that their diving teams won state championship last year. After watching the stunts we decided to go upstairs, and George Gregg, traffic director, showed up the elevator operated by none other than Bivings Thomas. Ah, here is the first sign of real work: Jack Badgett is the teacher of Trigonometry, and his pupils think the matter might be hard if it were looked into. !l 11N it VIEWS ikwlf- CLASS PROPHECY-Continued We went on to the lounging room which used to be the Senior Study Hall. There was a moving picture show instead of the traditional blackboard, but no one seemed to be interested in the picture. Stuart Cooper, now a successful business man, thought that all school children should see movies to improve their minds, so he installed one at High School operated by Everett Kirby. Furniture here is very luxurious, and comfortable. On becoming weary, one pushes a button and the chairs open out into beds. Kelly Bruce Reed and Tommy Linn explained that it had taken many years of hard work to perfect this. They work for Pat Liles and Leon Waters, who operate Ksuccessfully, of coursel the Northk Texas Home Furnishers' Store. Another improvement we noted was that when a student pushed a button, a pencil- sharpener would come to his desk, and when he had finished sharpening his pencil, it would return to its place. We thought this was very clever until four pushed the button at the same time. Monty Morgan, responsible for this invention, said, So far to good but it isn't perfect yet. On a table in the hall we picked up the school paper. It was called the Blah Blah, and we saw that Borden Wilson was the editor, Marshall Nix was the manager of the Advertising Department, while Charles Hunter was the editor of the Sob column. Mgargaret Jeane Wiley estabilshed a beauty parlor on the second floor of the building and has Mildred Brigham as her assistant. They specialize in face up-lifting and special waves for boys, and are quite efficient in their work. Mae Buckholtz and Faye Ferguson have secured positions as manicuirsts and eyebrow archers in Miss Wiley's beauty shop. Jamesene Wigszell and Endall Cotton have established a hospital on the fifth and sixth floors of the High School building and have hired Cleo Brooks and Elsie Campbell as special nurses. Dr. Eugene Ballou, a heart specialist, and Dr. J. D. Pas- chell as assistant, have offices in this institution. Posted on the Bulletin Board we saw a list of faculty members. Maurice Bush and Mary Elizabeth Casey, who have at last become the successors of Mr. Hilliard. Josephine Brooks and Genevieve Scofield are Physical Edu-cation Teachers. Melvin Hargrove teaches History and Ruth Henley teaches Typing. Ruby Tipton has charge of a Deaf and Dumb Class. Imogene McKee is a very capable teacher of Sewing. All this was explained to us by Mary Rose Morse, the secretary to the principal. Winnie V. Short has become teacher of English Literature, but instead of stress- ing the works of Chaucer and the importance of Shakespeare, she reveals their bad qualities and tells how to care for yellow curls. Gertrude Patterson and Nelda Bryant teach a certain branch of Chemistry-the properties of vanishing cream. Charlie Pace is the football coach, assisted by Enoch 0'Dell. Henry Parker is the director of the High School Band and Pauline Hodges is his assistant. We couldn't see exactly how she could help him any, but when he declared that' he just couldn't get along without her, we concluded that she must be director of the Pep Squad. We went to the mechanical drawing and shop work department where Leo Mel- ton is instructor. Haskell Manley, principal, and L. D. Thayer, superintendent, introduced us to a patron of the school, none other than George Hawkins. George gives away scholar- ships so as to enable students to graduate in four years. We were invited to stay for Assembly, and we gratefully consented. Much to our surprise we saw that Her- bert Gentry has taken Major Bowes' place in the radio world. He conducts his pro- grams each Tuesday morning from 9 until 10 in the High School Auditorium which is also Broadcasting Station F-L-O-P. The program included imitations of the navy, by Herbert Crowe, a political talk by Rayma Mae London, who believes that Lloyd Smith should be placed on the Democratic ticket for President in the next election, and that Dorothy Julien would make an excellent mayor provided her heart didn't break before. As you know, television has long been made possible by the fertile brain of Loyd Gattis, which makes it easy for Norma Spradling and Warnetta Dean to take the place of Mae West. The next number was a solo by James Crawford, accompanied by Geralena Bible, playing a banjo. Then came a most unusual fea- ture-a torch singer was announced and to our surprise she turned out to be Mil- dred Schiflett. We were startled out of our amazement by loud clanging noise which proved to be Tommy Jay and his red hot Jay Birds . This was the closing feature and as we were passing out we saw Marjorie Ruddell sitting at the switchboard with Elsie Thomas and Sylvia Thomas tabulating votes for the amateurs. TWENTY-SEVEN ' si:: K7.'5FAWN 100111 CLASS PROP!-I ECY - Continued We hear that Ruth Baggett was not satisfied with the method of shorthand that was practiced, so she made up her own system which is simply not writing shorthand at all, but remembering exactly what was dictated. Miss Marie Arthur criticized the method at first but after many years of successful practice, she has at last said that it cannnot be surpassed. Margaret Bengal said she first gavie Miss Baggett the idea, but Miss Baggett firmly denies this, so Margaret doesn't get any of the royalties. Margaret was so disappointed, she thought of another idea and did not confide in anyone. It is a typewriter that will type whatever you tell it to write without any effort on your part. This was a swell idea until paper grew rather scarce. Martha Fae Rotchstein quickly offset this by establishing a paper manufacturing company. Elmer Hammon and Cecil Spindle have set up the Hammon-Spindle Funeral Directors, and Robert Dyer and Jack Evans are the chief grave diggers. Plenty long, plenty wide and plenty deep is their motto. Charline Markham long ago gained the title of Miss America. Now she is floor walker at the overall factory. Paul Porter is the most popular cartoonist in this part of the world. Inez Moorman had hopes of being a second Wordsworth but she gave it up as a bad dream, and is now the literary critic for the 'Hagerman Head Ake, of which Matalyn Lind- say is editor, and Verna Margaret Allen is the editor of the Grin Column. Wybeta Smith is a demonstrater of electrical refrigerators and in her spare time operates cooking school. H. L. Browder is the chicken raiser on the largest ostrich farm in Oklahoma. Ralph Pinkston and Golden Ruddell, poultry raisers, keep the Cafeteria in the High School well supplied with frying chickens. Mary Fay Porch and Mary Parker, co-managers of this cafeteria and Jeannette Guilloud and Brunie Fay Fisher, the foods teachers who prepare the meals to be served in the lunch room, find that this is the only way to get their meals free. Mary Bond and Marie Wineinger are the waitresses, and who also furnish the floor show when one is called for. Maxine Harshbarger is the cashier. In the block next to the school was a Paderewski Circus of which Rose Lee Nelson and Dorothy Neidert are proprietors. Dick Wilson, the death-defying racer, driving his two-wheeled car, was the chief attraction. Bernadine Lyndon is hired as the doll manufacturer. Cecil Gilliam is now ringrnaster, having acquired his training herding ducks. Mabel Lou Dunning is peanut vendor. Her services are very much desired because she had much experience during the Texas Centennial, way back in 1936. Helen Ruth Pressley is an organ grinder and has a pet monkey and Violet Coff- man is a tight rope walker. Nellie Mae Strickland is a jazz singer and hfer fan mail equals that of Jean Harlow. Doris Howell did want to be a second Miss Johnson, but since Winnie V. Short attained that position. she has become court jester in the Pad- erewski Circus. We were very surprised when we saw that Virginia Wineinger has taken up the profession of snake charming. The fame of this circus is due to the clever advertising plastered on billboards by Hull Allen, the advance advertising man. Leland Cornell used to be sheriff but he received so many shocks that he has decided to be a rose grower. Johnny Gibson was a deputy for Sheriff Cornell, but after a few shooting scrapes he has also retired. Margaret Morrison and Ruby McGee are seamstresses and both specialize in making men's shirts. We had seen nearly all our old friends by this time, but we asked about some that we hadn't seen. We were told that Vela White, disappointed in love and marriage, had divorced John Hoey and is now a chewing gum tester in the Simms Tobacco Com- pany. Virginia Houghton is the successor of Katherine Hepburn in Hollywood as a result of the class play back in 1936. Roscoe Parker breaks rocks for the govern- ment. We expected greater things of Roscoe, but he admits that it is the dream of a lifetime fulfilled. Mabel Hunter is making a round-the-world tour lecturing on Cat Culture. Mildred Young demonstrates aluminum ware to housewives. Glen- don Kenney has taken over Jimmie Jeffries' place on the Early Bird program. By this time our brains were in a whirl as a result of all this startling news, so we decided to call it a day. It has been wonderful visting our old friends, and reviewing the happy days of 1936.

Miss Cartwright, the Junior sponsor, was pleased with procedure and order. The following group of officers were elected: President, Aaron Witzg Vice President, Frances Caseyg Secretary, James Millerg and Treasurer, Leo Radford. Plans for the Junior Reception were briefly discussed. At a meeting held several weeks later the class chose their rings. The Junior Class rings are yellow gold withi the owner's initials in black on the side, and the school initials on the face. The Junior Reception for the Seniors is the traditional farewell party to the graduates tendered by the Juniors. The party this year was given in the colorfully decorated Gymnasium June 3. THIRTY-FIVE i get !l .ll UK YETZBS HXZiHi B SKINN ER' S DRESS SUIT The comedy, Skinner's Dress Suit, given by an all-school cast, for the benefit of the Football Sweater Fund, November 15, 1935, was under the direction of Miss Edith Austin, Mr. Otis Hilliard, and Mrs. J. E. Byers. Music was supplied by the High School Band, directed by Mr. G. E. Swindell. The cast was as follows: Tommy, the office boy, J. D. Wright, Mn Mac- Laughlin' and Mr. Perkins, partners in business, Pat Liles and Jack Lewisg Mr, Briggs, a high pressure salesman, J. R. Maguire, Honey Rutherford, the stenog- rapher, Annette Hodges, Skinner, a timid clerk, Fred Stitzellg Mrs. MacLaughlin, Mary Teresa Miller, Mrs. Colby, a society matron, Rosemary Foudrayg Olivia, her niece, Gracie Steed, Mr. Willard Jackson, a grouchy but good-hearted capital- ist, Tellus Miller, and Mrs. J ackson, his well-meaning wife, Rayma Mae London. Skinner's Dress Suit is the story of a penurious clerk named Skinner, em- ployed in the firm of MacLaughlin and Perkins, who is in love with his employer's secretary, Honey Rutherford, but is too bashful to declare his love for her Charley Briggs, a wise-cracking, over-confident salesman for the firm, is also in love with Honey, but she discourages his attentions. She senses, however, that Skinner is in love with her, and begs him to seek a raise, which is refused. Skinner, however, tells Honey that he received the raise, and at her insistence, buys a dress suit and accessories to wear to a social function given by the prominent society matron, Mrs. Colby. Briggs, meanwhile, in trying to secure a large contract from William Jackson, a confirmed grouch, becomes over-confident and fails. He is fired. At Mrs. Colby's function, Skinner, in his dress suit, meets Jackson, becomes one of his few friends, and secures the contract only after it has been increased to a million and a half. Skinner is welcomed into the firm as a junior partner as a reward, and Briggs takes his inglorious departure. Honey's secret marriage is announced as the curtain falls. J. R. MAGUIRE. SONNET Oh, why should I be sitting here at home, Almost in tears for rhyming words to go At every second ending line, to show That I at least have tried to write a poem? Oh, why do I not have a flowing use Of words, that I might see my sonnet grow Beneath a constant moving pen, which goes With ease and certain light and steady stroke? It's just for English and Miss Moore I sit, As never ending thoughts pass in review, Go round and round and come back new. I hope that all my efforts won't be in vain, That this, my sonnet, gains a grade for me, The which, I fear, I badly need to see. -By Frances Caseyl 5l - - if VIZAWZ 1511! XXX!!!

'I lkwl-1 Liu anim: ' , AARON WITZ FRANK HOUGHTON ANN CLYMER ROSEMARY FOUDRAY THE DEBATE CLUB The Debate Club of Denison High School, which is a part of the larger organi- zation, the Public Speaker Forum, was divided into three parts. The Junior and Senior group, from which the regular debating teams were picked, was under the direction of Mr. Hilliardg the Freshman and Sophomore girls were under the direc- tion of Miss Carlisle, and the Freshman and Sophomore boys were under the direc- tino of Mr. Bryant. The combined enrollment of these three units averaged forty- five students. All teams debated the regular Intrschoolastic League Debate Ques- gon: Resolved, that the Federal Government Should Control the Prcducticn of otton. , THE BOYS' DEBATING TEAM For the regular Interscholastic League debates and the various tournaments, the boys' debate team consisted of Aaron Witz and Frank Houghton. with Maurice Bush and James Miller as alternates. Both the first and the alternates made very commendable records for Denison High School. Aaron and Frank engaged in a total of some forty debates, losing only six, and were accorded the title of Grayson County Interschoolastic League Chamions. Both will be back again next year. The Debate Club is sorry to lose Maurice Bush, a '36 graduate. THE GIRLS' DEBATING TEAM The regular girls' debate team consisted of Ann Clymer and Rosemary Foud- ray, with Helen Louise McDaniel and Hazel Hagans as alternates. Both teams made very commendable records. Ann and Rosemary engaged in a total of thirty-two debates and lost only five. They earned the distinction of Champions of Grayson County, and after defeating the strong Highland Park girls' team, went to the finals in the District Meet. THE FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE TEAMS The elimination was held in the classes sponsored by Miss Carlisle and Mr. Bryant and the winning team determined from each class. In the girls' class Charmian Byers and Thelma Thomason were declared the winners, while in the boys' class David Rothstein and Bobby' Reeves won first place. In the final contest, the girls' team was proclaimed the winning team. Under the direction of Mr. Hilliard, a regular chapter of the National Foren- sic League was established in Denison High School. Ann, Rosemary, Aaron, Frank, and Maurice are all eligible for the Degree of Special Distinction in this organiza- tion, and will receive keys by the close of the school year. Several of the other members of the Debate Club arc eligible for membership in this organization.

ORDER OF DE MOLAY The Order of DeMolay originated March 24, 1919, with Frank S. Land of Kansas City, who is now Secretary General of the Grand Council. The Denison Chapter was the two hundredth one organized, receiving its Letters Temporary on Jan. 82, 1921, with R. T. Arthur, Chairman of the first Advisory Coun- cil. On April 1, 1921, the first meeting was held when twenty of our charter mem- bers were initiated into the order. The Order of DeMolay is now an international organization with over 1,300 chapters located in every State of the Union and many foreign countries. Mem- bership is open to high class boys between the ages of 15 and 21. Initiation into the order is a declaration by the member that he believes in the ideals of good sonhsip, good citizenship and other qualities of superior young manhood. Its main purpose is to develop leaders for the community by encouraging high-grade, allfround mental, physicial, social, economic and spiritual development. The Denison Chapter rates among the finest in the United States which posi- tion is has attained through the sincere work of its members and through the splen- did leadersihp and guidance of its advisors. The chapter has won 17 cups in competitive degree work and has received numerous honors from the Grand Council for outstanding leadership. Its present membership is composed of about 90 young men. It has on its advisory board twelve men headed by Verne W. Murray as chairman and L-. A. Mosse as Chapter Advisor. . l 'll 11 ikWTHi TI-IE BAND BACK ROW: E. C.

SEVENTY .l sl ' -' ' - ' ': iznnm tuorami -KWI-if MUNSON FIELD FOOTBALL The demon Hard Luck saddled the Yellow Jacket grid eleven with illness and ineligibility and scourged them with the whip of defeat and disappointment during the 1935 season. Though prospects in spring training were not of the brightest as the Jackets had lost a number of cogs from the stellar 1934 machine, still Coaches Logan Stol- lenwerck, Elva Baker, and 0. J. Malone possessed seven lettermen and a sufficiency of squadmen to assure at least a fair season had not ill luck swung its scythe and decimated the ranks of the gridsters. The initial body blow was struck when Bill Conatser upon whose running, kicking and passing much emphasis had been placed during the idle moments when the coaches counted their pre-hatched triumphs, suffered a prolonged illness that prevented his reaching top form. Then it was learned that Clyde Allen, big guard, and Paul York, fleet back, would not be in schoolg and, finally, that George Davis had withdrawn from the school. There remained, then, of the original seven veterans, only Charlie Pace, back, Carrel Willoughby, end and reformed centerg and R. S. Lovett, tackle. The season's opener with Durant revealed that bad luck was still riding with SEVENTY ONE Qu 'DI 16111 B1 Q ln A t YELLOW JACKETS FIRST ROW: Cecil Williams, Bob Bremerman, Edward Kirkland, Bill Conatser.

FOOTBALL-Continued spurs, for though the Stollenwerckers outgained the sooner athletes by many yards, they emerged from the fracas on the incorrect end of a 7-6 count. In the next skirmish, the Jacketts tasted their first victory, a 20-to-6 win over Tishomingo. But their winning streak flashed like a comet, for the locals were mowed down in subsequent struggles with Greenville, Bonham, Gainesville, Denton, Highland Park, McKinney and Sherman. Thanksgiving Day, however, these youngsters who had been learning while they lost, gave their adherents new hopes for the year to come when they admin- istered an 18-to-13 upset licking to the North Dallas Bulldogs, a pack that was doped to pull the locals' stingers for at least a two'touchdown triumph. Carrel Willoughby, J. A. Spinks, Har1'y White, M. E. Vandiver, Charlie Mc- Comas, and Ed Kirkland provided the harassed coaches with the few smiles they enjoyed during the season.

Members of the club are those men who have lettered in football, basketball, track and tennis. Letter men who are out of school are considered honorary members. Chief among the duties of D men is the prevention of violation of the D, that coveted letter, by ineligibles. Certain punishments are inflicted on violators. The club gave a dance in November which was well attended. Informal meet- ings are held semi-monthly and informal initiations of new members are events of campus interest during the spring term. Members of the D Association whose pictures do not appear are: Earl Raw- lings, Tommy Jay, Roy McCorkle, Enoch Odell, Clyde Davis, Harry White, J. A.

Success such as has not been visited on a Yellow Jacket cage team since the memorable season of 1932, was earned by Logan Stollenwerck's young courtmen dur- ing the 1935-36 year when they annexed 18 and lost but 9 contests. Using as the nucleus for his machine the only two returning lettermen, Charlie Pace, guard, and Bill Conatser, forward, Stollenwreck moulded a smooth, quintet after a rather slow start in which he was forced to develop performers for the other' three positions. These he filled with Carrel Willoughby, husky squadman from the 1934-35 quintet, and two Mud Dauber graduates, Oliver Jackson, watch charm forward, and Fred Taylor, scrappy guard. After several successful invasions of Oklahoma and many North Texas towns, the Yellow Jackets climaxed their season by copping the Class A championship of Grayson County by humbling Whitesboro in the finals. Coach Stollenwerck regards the 1935-36 season as a foundation for future success, as three of his performers, Jackson, Taylor ard Conatser, will return to the court wars next year.

HU ' TENNIS Coach M. M. Marshall has reached his peak year in tennis by winning all his county matches and by having half his team in a good position to win the State Ten- nis Meet this year. In the elimination of twelve players, Murray Marshall, three times singles, and one time doubles, county winner, was accorded number one position on the boys' team. Those lettering are Royden Lebrecht, Leroy Walker, Andrew Brister, and Mur- ray Marshall. The results of the County Meet held at Sherman, March 20, are: Murray Marshall, Senior singles, defeated Collinsville, in semifinals, 6-0, 6-1, and won over Whitesboro in finals, by default. Leroy Walker and Royden Lebrecht, Senior doubles, defeated Whitewright in semifinals, and Collinsville in finals, 5-7, 6-1, 6-2. Billie Peterson, Junior singles, defeated Tioga in finals, 6-0, 6-0. Jack Knaur and Harry Calvird, Junior doubles, won over Tioga, 6-0, 6-0, in finals. Royden Lebrecht, Billie Peterson, Harry Calvird, and Jack Knaur will do their best to keep the reputation next year that they have now. The girls' tennis team, coached by D. W. Starr, brough back three tennis titles from the County Meet at Sherman, March 20. Handicapped by having to use the school gymnasium for courts, the girls should be congratulated sincerely upon their hard-earned victories. Those lettering this year are Martha Rotchstein, Florence Graham, and Dorothy Coker. The results of the Interscholastic Meet are: Martha Rotchstein, Senior singles, defeated Van Alstyne, 6-2, 7-5, in Semifinals, and Tioga, 6-0, 6-0, in finals. Florence Graham and Dorothy Coker, Senior doubles, vanquished Van Alstyne in finals, 6-2, 5-7, 9-7. Helen Louise Hodges, Junior singles, won over Tioga, 2-6, 7'-5, 12-10. Mary Marie Jennings and Charmian Byers, Junior doubles, lost to Tioga, 2-6, 0-6. Coach Starr expects to go farther next year in tennis with Helen Hodges, Doro- thy Coker, Mary Jennings, and Charmian Byers remaining on the team. sEvEN'rY SEVEN N 'isii K 13555 -Vwl-I .

There are many temptations with which we shall meet And sad, mournful scenes every day, But the faces at school, Oh, we never shall greet, Their forms will be so far awayg But we'1l think of the dear oud stone step at the door, And oft drop a tear from our eye, We'll stand in our dreams as we stand here tonight, To bid our dear schoolmates good-bye.
