Patterson has executed, in an efficient and intelligent manner, the performance of the duties of his position as superintendent of the Denton public schools for the past five years. His first interests are those of the school and the students. With his cheerful smile and his pleasing personality, he has won the friendship of each boy and girl, and with keen foresight and under- standing, he is ever endeavoring to guide the school in the way that makes for improvement and advancement. There is no problem too great or too small for his atten- tion, and he gives diligently of his time and efforts for the progress of Denton Senior High School. Mr. A. O. Calhoun came to Denton High School in 1919, and has served as principal from that time to the present date. He carries out the duties of his oflice with intelligence, foresight, and efhciency. Although he is a busy man, he is always ready to listen to our troubles, and we students realize his kindness and his willingness to lend a helping hand. During Prof's years with the high school, he has made every student feel as if he had a certain position to fill, and he has helped him to fill it. His good-fellowship, tact, and understanding manner are characteristics which endear him to all with whom he comes in contact. Through the years he has been the friend of each boy and girl, and as time has passed, he has seen them grow into maturity and take their places among the prominent people of today. , .' v '-1' ' a fi :N H--mf-w' ,. .. r if, eff?

STANTON FRED SLAQK 3215 5 KENN13'rH HOGAN COACHES Through the efforts of our coaches, Mr. Stanton and Mr. Slack, Denton High turned out a football team this year that became known as the 'tfighteniest bunch of boysn in North Texas. Mr. Stanton has perhaps more friends among the students and ex-students of our high school than any other person. His untiring efforts in developing not only athletic ability but also character in his football players accounts for this friendship. For the last three years he has been ably assisted by Mr. Slack, who has become a figure in the public school system because of his coaching ability and excellent physical education depart- ment. CAPTAIN The Broncos were lcd on the field this year by Captain Ken Hogan. Wart's undying spirit helped the team out of many holes and set an example that was exceedingly hard to follow. SQUAD Firsf Row-McCurley, Willeford, Tate, Martin, Hogan, Capt., Ferrick, Heflin, Sccomf Row-Lehrman, Mgr., Fuller, Blair, Simpson, Genstch, Kluck, Spalding, Noles, Davis, Fancher, Mgr. Tbirzf Ron'-Hunt, Mgr., Redding, McAlister, Harding, Stew- art, Carpenter, Kearns, Boorman, Baker, Boyer, H V. Stan- ton, Coach. - NN 5 1 KEN HOGAN-WT. 130-BACK Wart,' was our captain this past year and showed through his splendid play that he deserved this honor. Even though he was small, he was always in the midst of every play encouraging the other boys to do their best. Hogan's presence on next year's team should mean the difference between a winning or a losing football team. WICK MASSEY-WT. 185-GUARD Without Wick's splendid play at guard and tackle and his leadership on the Held, the Broncos would not have been the fighting team that they were this past season. We regret to say that this is Wick's last year of elgibility. GLENN FULLER-WT. 190-BACK Glenn closes a brilliant athletic career for D. H. S. this year. His hard blocking and tackling and his bonechilling line bucks will be sorely missed next year. He has developed into one of the best athletes in this school,s history and should make some college an excellent man. MARTIN FERRICK-WT. 150-BACK Martin was our capable quarterback this past year. He be- came known throughout District Six for his punting and the coolness he showed on the field. We expect Martin to be at least an all-district selection next year. KIRK HARDING-WT. 16 S -CENTER Kirk was one of the steadiest centers that ever played for the purple and gold. He could always be counted upon to be in the midst of every play and his snap-backs were always at the right spot. He leaves a hole that will be hard to fill next year.

DAVIS TOM SPALDING P g Fo ty eight 'ss JAMES KEARNS-WT. 165-END This was James' first year, but he came through like a veteran. He was a gifted pass receiver and a good blocker and tackler. His ability to go down under punts made rival teams sit up and take notice. This is James' last year of elgibility. JOHN L. DAVIS-WT. 185-BACK John is one of the finest passers and runners ever to play for Denton High. When he ran with the ball, the opposing team knew to respect his ability. His passes were like bullets and right to the spot. John should be an all-district selection next year. TOM SPALDING-WT. 1 7 5 -GUARD Tom showed how one year of experience can help a player this past year. He was big, tough, rugged, and imbued with a fighting spirit that never said die. We expect Tom to be the backbone of the line next year. TRUMAN KLUCK-WT. 170-GUARD Kluck was shifted at the first of the season from the backiield to a guard slot. He did remarkably Well for the training he had at this position. Kluck completed his elgibility this year. MORRIS BOYER-WT. 145--BACK Morris showed amazing ability in that he could play either end or back. He was a glue-lingered pass receiver and a hard runnerg he also had a change of pace that made him exceedingly hard to tackle. Morris' two years of experience will make him a valuable man next year. TRUMAN KLUCK MORRIS ROYER JIMMY MCALISTER-WT. 160-TACKLE On defense Jimmy was an alert, hard-charging tackle that dealt enemy end sweeps and off-tackle plays much misery. Jimmy is just a sophomore this year and has two more years to play. JACK BOORMAN-NVT. 160-END Jack should develop into one of the best high school ends in the state. He is well built for an end being tall and having long arms and large hands. We expect much from Jack during the next two years. KENNETH REDDING-WT. 170-TACKLE Chunk came from the Junior High squad this last year. He played a fine defensive game being a low, hard charger from his tackle post. 1940 will be his last year of elgibility. HAROLD MCCURLEY-WT. 165-END This was Q'Wild Bill's Hrst year to play football. He devel- oped unusually fast for a green man and at the end of the season was playing first string end. He completed his elgibility this year. CECIL MARTIN-WT. 140-BACK Zeke,' is a fine all-round athlete. He was a star in Junior High football and became known in District Six for his touch- down pass that gave us a tie in the Greenville game. Zeke should be one of the outstanding backs for the Broncos next year. JIMMY MCALISTER JACK BOORMAN CECIL MARTIN HAROLD MCCURLEY KENNETH REDDING Page Forfy t Q' I 1 LEONARD CARPENTIiR 'rf 1 .

He was held back by lack of experience at the first of the season, but finally got into high gear as the season drew to a close. He will be a valuable man next year. HENRY GENTSCH-WT. 210-GUARD This was Henryls first year to play football but he developed into a low charging guard who had the nack of getting many tackles. The team next year could use more men like Henry. NAT NOLES-WT. 170-TACKLE Nat was hampered by an injured hand most of the season but showed through his splendid play while in the games that he will make things hot for some of the more experienced men next year. ,...t....fv?r-my I Page Fiffy Basketball T A . i 1 s if 'QQ Mr. Mac as he is affectionately called by the stu- dent body, has been connected with this school for a number of years. In these years his teams have won two State championships, six regional championships, eight district championships, and fourteen county champion- ships. When his teams take the floor they can be counted upon to put out their best from the first whistle to the last, and are known throughout Texas for their tricky offenses and stalwart defensives. . . A-.ou l q Q' I. v- The Broncos this year were no exception to these statements as they won a large majority of their games. They advanced to the regional finals where they were beaten by a taller Waco Tiger quintet. D. H. S. is indeed lucky to have Mr. Mac as a member of its coaching staff and each student sincerely appreciates his efforts. SQUAD First Row-Baker, Simpkins, Kearns, Martin, Hill.

He sparked th 1 d. . . e 940 Bronco istrict championship. SO1'ltO KEN KEARNS-FORWARD Ken is perhaps the best basketball player ever to play for Denton High. He set an all-time scoring record of 333 points in one season and has an average of over eleven points per game. Besides his offensive ability he is an unusually good defensive man. C. E. HASTINGS-GUARD Cooter,, was our best defensive man this year. He had the ability to stick ' with a man and allow him but few points. This was his second he h year to letter and as another year to play. CECIL MARTIN-GUARD Zeke', is an even better bask b is fo b et all player than he ot all player In th' . is, his first year of play, he was a unanimous all-district selection. Zeke was best when the going really ot ' ' he g tough, in other wo d was a money ball l r s p ayer. We all k will star du ' ' now that he ring his next two years of play. this has played s gradua- to fill next me an all- very good nder our El KENNETH BAKER-FORWARD Baker was not only our first substitute into the battle, but also started many games. Mr. Macu noted that he was a dead shot under the basket and he came through with many points during the season. Baker,s experience this year should make him even more valuable next year. MORRIS BOYER-GUARD Morris was one of the most dependable substitutes. Mr. Mac noted in him a determination to work the ball into scoring position, and fine defensive maneu- vering. He has two years of elgibility left. BILL RUSSELL-FORWARD Bill was high scorer on the B team and thus proved his basketball ability. He has all the qualities to become a great ball player including coolness under fire. He is just a sophomore. OSCAR STEWART-GUARD When Oscar started playing basketball this year, we all thought he was too awkward, but he overcame this difficulty and showed sterling qualities on both offense and defense. He, also, is a sophomore and should develope into a valuable man. JIMMY MCALISTER-CENTER Jimmy has been associated with Denton High basketball ever since he was born. This is his first year to play on the squad and we expect him to up- hold the family name in the years to follow. 1-rf wer For the past three years, the Bronco track team has been under the direction of Fred Slack. His enthusiasm has 33? W developed a fine spirit of competition in the boys enabling W them to win many meets, and when D. H. S. takes to the . . .n..l - - . ' t track and field you can be sure that the team will be giving ,.- 4 f tm., all they have toward winning the meet. During the time that Mr. Slack has been here there has been an unmistakable swing to more interest in track and he deserves more than a little credit for this swing of interest. This year Denton High has another fine track team, and for the first time we have stand- outs in nearly every event. They are expected to sweep through the county meet and make a good showing in the district meet that is to be held in Ft. Worth. SQUAD First Row-Ferrick, Gentry, Foster, Hunt, Heflin, Kluck. Second Row-Davis, Stanley, McCurley, Fuller. Page Fifty-fam' The mile relay team is composed of Billy Hunt, Bob Gentry, Harry Heflin, and Joe Foster. These boys have turned in excellent time con- sistently throughout the track sea- son and placed in the exceedingly tough Borden Olympics held in Laredo, Texas. Harry is the only man to be back next year. Billy Hunt is perhaps the best 440 man in this school's history. He has Won first place in almost every meet he has entered and has never failed to place. Besides his competing in the 440 he runs an- chor in the mile relay team. His services will, indeed, be missed next year. Glenn Fuller has become a feared competitor in the weight division throughout the state. He averages close to fifty feet in the shot put, one hundred and twenty-five feet in the discuss, and one hundred and sixty feet in the javelin. Martin Ferrick ran the 100 yard dash and the 220 yard dash. He could be counted upon for points in every meet and will be back to bolster the team next year. Harry Heflin, a sophomore, has the ability to become a great track man. He runs all the dashes and Was a member of the mile relay team. A man such as Fuller deserves to be put down in the school,s athletic history. He has been to state twice in the Weight events and has placed each time. After carrying the pur- ple and gold standards on the field for three years, heiwill be sorely missed in the future. linear, Page Fifty-five Qgw Tennis In the three years that Smitty has been here, the tennis team has risen to new heights in interschool activ- ities. Before he became the Bronco tennis coach he was a star player on the local N. T. S. T. C. team and a stand- out on the campus. Besides his coaching he finds time to hold a place on the Junior High School faculty. He is patiently insistent upon the use of good technique in building a successful game, and the results brought about by his suggestions bear out his opinions. His team this year has promises of being one of the best in the history of D. H. S. They have competed in ia round robin affair arranged with Sherman and Gainesville and were barely beaten out of an unofficial North Texas Championship by the strong Sherman team. Smitty's,' coaching skill has made rival teams and their coaches look to their laurels and has broadcast a warning to other teams in this district. SQUAD First Row-Holmes, Gale, McClendon, Fitch, Holbert, Dutton. Second x-Kornbl t, Headlee, Kelsay, Pratt, Barnes, Robbins, Smith, Elliot Smith, Coach. Pug? Fifty-six 7? fig ' Ray Smith's fine tennis upholds a family tradition, since he is the second of his family to play for D. H. S. His strong serve and powerful forehand have made him the top man on the Denton High School squad. His ability to cover the court has been noticed through- out North Texas and along with his other good points has helped him emerge victorious from many hard fought matches this season. We are expecting great things from Ray in the District Meet. Dorothy Headlee has made a real name for herself in girls tennis throughout this section of the state. Her dependable backhand and swift forehand are only two of the strong points which have made it possible for her to become the City Woman Champion of Denton. When Dorothy graduates this year, D. H. S. will lose a brilliant tennis star. David Robbins is on the tennis squad for the first time this year, but his ability to get the ball back is the ability of a veteran tennis player. He has been responsible for many points for the doubles team this season, and we shall miss him on the courts next year Joe Barns has been the star player of junior high for the past two years, and we are indeed for- tunate to have him on the D H. S. team this year. His good net game and powerful serve, in addition to his ability to cover the court, have made him very important to the doubles team. We shall expect much from Joe in the next three years. Jayne Pratt and Marie Kelsay made up the girls doubles team for 1940. This is their first year on the squad but they have been working out together for two years. Marie's speedy forehand backed up by -Iayne's dependenable backhand brought many victories to them. The sign of a good doubles team is in the teamwork and Marie and Jayne exhibited smooth teamwork at all times. Their absence on next years squad will leave a place that will be hard to fill. . js' 'K Page Fifty-se vcn . 1 s . f . if i 1 l g S DMS Softball Since softball excludes no one from the ranks of the team and team play, it has gradually become one of the major sports in D. H. S. The team has been coached for sometime by J. M. Gross who is insistant upon the employ- ment of sportmanship and fair play in his boys. Under the direction of Mr. Gross the boys work out every afternoon for one hour and at no time can you find any boy Who should be there staying away from practise. Mr. Gross, team has regularly Won the county meet in that phase of interscholastic league Work and it is to him that We are indebted for developing this part of athletics in Denton High. The team this year is again expected to sweep through the county meet and if it were possible to advance any further in the Interscholastic League we feel sure that these boys would go as far as was possible. SQUAD First Row-Hackney, Smith, Harbert, Session, Scoggins, Watson, Fields, Bradford, Schaleinat, Cowan. I Second Row-Glosup, Stine, Byrom, McNabb, Gentsch, Rose, Gridith, Kindred, J. M. Gross, Coach. Page Fifty-eight E .qw Vollybvzll Volley-ball is one athletic event in the interscholastic league that is for girls only, though it is not just a girl's game, The girls use the official men's rules adopted by the United States Volley-ball Association. They participate in one division of the county teams, but the winners of these divisions do not play for the county championship. T 1 Under the direction of Miss Cocanougher the girls worked out one hour each day from the beginning of the fall semester until the county meet in March. The fifteen in the class worked hard each day and in these workouts showed the right spirit of cooperation and fair play. The team played several games with schools in the surrounding territory and made a good showing in invitational tournaments at Bowie and Ponder.

If I should Win, let it be by the code With my faith and my honor held high. If I should lose, let me stand by the road And cheer as che winners go by. Oh, grant me to conquer, if conquer I can By proving my Worth in the fray. But teach me to lose like a Regular Man And not like a craven I pray.

The declaimers, the debaters, and the extemporaneous speakers make frequent trips to out- standing tournaments, thereby making quite a name for themselves and Denton High. But, besides these stu- dents, there are those who take part in the plays that are presented in our school. Each year three or more three act plays are given. This year's 'KAunt Susie Shoots the Works,,' Tell Me Pretty Maidenf, Here She Comes, and Lady Spitfire were given.
