FOOTBALL BROADCAST This is station D. H. S. bringing to you the football game of 1937. Again Mavis, escorted by James Forrester, sponsors our class. To the Swing,' the boys rush out on the field. As Steve Coleman kicks off, the game is on! Rusty Robinson arrives a little late. His explanation is that he wanted to be sure not to get there too early for fear of blemishing his School-Boy com- plexion. The event turns out to be a three-ring circus-the cheering squad, the game, the band. One hardly knows which to watch. We find our friend, Betty Hornsby, standing on the sideline, yelling for james to bring home the pigskin. As the ball is just a few feet from the goal the whistle signifies the half. Another whistle-here comes the band! They parade across the field and form the letter, D-are we thrilled! Look at the Juniors! Hobart Hall with his sliding trombone and Doris Welch, our lone-star saxaphone player, are shining examples of our talent. We'd like to mention them all, but there just isn't room. Could Dothan Hi have a band without the Juniors? Like all good things, this must come to an end. And so the game is resumed. Love-Bug Nub scored a touchdown. The goal was Jane Driver. Sam Harrison, the cheer leader, has only one competitor, Huey Grant. Here we pause to recognize the bus students. Although it is impossible for all to attend the games, we appreciate their cooperation and know they are here in spirit. It seems that Kid-romancei' Whatley has quite a few fans. Hi, 71! Why don't you give the Dothan girls a break sometimes? Q. As Davidson trucks across the goal to victory, the crowd is in an uproar and , X W V the over! L- , ' gi i 7' This is D. H. S. signing off.

N 'D V fl GWALTNEY POYNER JONES Dfxvis President Vlte-Pre einen! Secretary Representative SENIOR I RESUME For six long years we labored at grammar school to try to make the All-Ameri- can team, only to find the reward for our efforts was a promotion to a higher training school, Young junior High. Our first goal, graduation, was won after three years of hard work, sore muscles, defeats, and victories. The following season we were transferred to a new training field, Dothan High, where our coaches, under the watchful eye of Referee Vaughan, trained us to earn our points and play the game fair and square. No fouling, now, mind you! On our new training field we had our tryouts for positions on the All-Ameri- can. Captain Henry Gwaltney, Alternate Captain jimmy Poyner, and Manager Nell jones were elected by their team mates. One of the first things we were in- terested in was Pep Meetings. Some of our team mates joined the band and added their voices to the cheers. At this time we learned some of the rules-good scholar- ship, good citizenship, good sportsmanship. Some of the contestants made the first team, others were called substitutes, Those who did not make the team were given an equally honorable job of support- ing the team by cheering and working hard to make it next time. Marilyn Davis was chosen cheer-leader, of course. Elsie Hawkins and Harold Wiggins were our sponsor and escort. Some have a special motive of play-james Joiner, who seems to play for Katherine, Harper, for Betty Anng Oscar, for Sarag and jeff, for Gloria Lee. Have you ever noticed Miriam Davis standing on the side lines. She cheers for all the heroes and they try to make a touchdown just for her. fregret the loss of some of our players-Elsie, Sidney, Martha, and Ger- Marjorie, Nell, Rowina, Katrine, and R. A. At the present we are putting forth every effort to make our team the best. In the future we almost see the light of the goal post, graduation, burning brightly and awaiting our arrival. So- MARY BRUCE STEPHENS Y l But in return, several players from other teams have joined us-Margaret, T H E G A R G O Y L E Page Thirty-four
