S ally Johnson Helen Barnes Sue Giddeon Joanne O'Kelley Ruth Tippit The city of Drumright sprang up amid the gushers in the oil boom days of 1913. Two years later, in 1915, the high school introduced the first yearbook, which the staff named the Gusher. ln 1939 financial difficul- ties forced temporary suspension of the book, but publication was resumed again in 1940. Many times our book has been recognized as outstanding in the state contests, For the past two years it has rated high nationally. Our aim is to be iudged ALL-AMERICAN. MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL SCHOLASTIC PRESS ASSOCIATION KP sc'0l '5 in S v 'L 3 rv M Q 1+ 4' J' S 4' 4 ssatxb Come, Spirit, And lead Me Entering Drumright High School through the west door, one looks up to the replica of the statue, The Appeal to the Great Spirit. Standing there since it was presented by the class of 1920, it has been a symbol of our hopes and dreams. To the football and basketball player, it is symbolic of an inward drive to win, a desire to represent his school to the best of his ability. To most of the students, it represents an ambi- tion to attain success in the future through hard work today. To the faculty, it stands for guidance as they instruct their students and watch them take their places as future citizens. This year, 1952-1953, was an eventful year. The inspira- tion symbolized by the statue lingered with the students as they hurried from class to class, went to this meeting or that, or made their own plans for the games and the student mixers. During the fall evenings, the spirit symbolized by the statue motivated high enthusiasm as the pep club gathered outside the gym to build a bonfire and lead the students in a victory rally. As they ambled past the statue in the winter evenings to attend a club meeting or play rehearsal, the students were urged by a spirit of encouragement to do their iob well. The year went quickly for some members of the student body, moreslowly for others. But with the approach of spring, the students began to realize that a spirit of achievement had accompanied them through the year, for they were now leav- ing behind a successful basketball season and a better than average record in almost all other activities. Apparently a spirit of contentment was hovering close, too, for the freshmen were at last accustomed to the high school routine and felt more at ease. The sophomores were happy to realize that they were about to be advanced another year. The juniors were kept busy making plans for the annual iunior-senior banquet. In the meantime, the seniors relaxed as they saw a major task of theirs completed when the Gusher was sent to press. But they didn't have much time for leisure. Within a short time, it was graduation day. When commencement was completed, the seniors, now alumni, left the building with 'the congratula- tory crowd. And the Indian on horseback,with his arms outstretched in a plea for guidance,was left alone in the halls, a symbol of all the fond memories that are carried by the many students and graduates of Drumright High School. -3- 3 ag ,4 Q2 . 5 5 'Q' V? if x Q A iv K ,yy-5, . ui, s wg by wg, K L34 '15 . 2+ Q X f 2 X., +5125 :f-4 'A WU f W . wvffggf L ff? wifi' - , Mm -Ji' 54?

Interested in the promotion of a beneficial program of education for their community, they attend a monthy meeting of the Creek county school board association, and contribute to group discussions concerning problems common to most schools. Currently, each member has been elected for a term of four years and could be re-elected an unlimited number of times. However, due to a revised state law, each mem- ber elected after 1955 will serve for a term of five years, and only one new member will be elected each year. I MONTHLY MEETING.

At one such meeting, it was decided to appoint a steering committee to serve as a medium of approach between faculty and students. Mem- bers of this committee were Miss Griscom, chairman, Mr. Duckworth and Mrs. Pinkston. The entire high school teaching staff are members of the Drumright Education Associa- tion, which meets four times a year to foster the interests of the school in the Drumright system. Of this organization, Mrs. Anderson served the past year as secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Pinkston as chairman of the legislative committee, and Mrs. Kane as a member of the publicity committee. Three times a year the faculty attend dinner meetings of the Creek county chapter of the Oklahoma Education Association. After-dinner speakers at these meetings are usually people prominent in the field of education. To increase their professional growth, the faculty took part in many other activities dur- ing the past year. In the early fall they par- ticipated in a workshop in Sapulpa for teach- ers of Creek county. Later in the year they at- tended the state teachers' meeting at Okla- homa City and the district meeting at Edmond. Through these many meetings, the faculty learned the newest developments in the field of education and tried to use the ideas that were applicable to Drumright. PLANNING AHEAD. The assembly planning committee-Miss Griscom, Mrs Kane, Miss Camp, Mr. Duckett, Don Heffington, Buck Salmon, Sherman Carter, Frank Hess, Mr. Kirkman, Mrs. Pinkston, Mr. Zaumeyer, Mr. Butcher, Mr. Duckworth, and Mrs. Apple- meets to set the dates for special assemblies during the coming year.

Also, on each day ot that week, the . . b Local Thespians, directed and sponsored y Mrs. Kane, presented radio skits over a loud speaker on Broadway. These skits dealt with many ot the problems arising within the schools and homes.

Nine months ago they selected the following officers to guide them through the term: Virginia Peters, president, Tom Osborn, vice-president, Jerry Osborn, secretary-treasurer, and Barbara Skeen, yell leader. Mrs. Pinkston, Mrs. Anderson, and Mrs. Apple were chosen sponsors. The seniors were proud that all the queenships were filled by members of their class - Jackie Martin, football, Sharon Bowen, band, and Norma Sue Johnson, basketball. Queen attendants were Jean Morris, Sue Mead, and Shirley Watson. Four of the five Student Council offices were held by seniors. Roger Deeba was vice-president, Jean Morris, secretary, Esther Carter, treasurer, Shirley Watson, yell leader, and Frank Hess and Beverly Pruitt were senior representatives. In December Shirley and Jean were delegates to the state Student Council convention. Promoting school spirit as yell leaders were Shirley Watson, Sharon Bowen, and Norma Sue Johnson. Band maiorettes were Jackie Horning and La Don Walbridge. Near the end of the year, it was disclosed that Jean Morris and Jerry Osborn were Highest Ranking Girl and Boy, and Frank Hess and Jean Morris, Best Thespians. Kenneth Lawson won the science award, and Beverly Pruitt, the commercial award. Some of the high points of the year were the senior play, The Bishops Mantle, the class assembly, and the iunior-senior banquet. Another high point was when Frank Hess won a S25 bond and a chance for a scholarship to the University of Tulsa by piling up the most points in the Going to College quiz. Near the middle of the year, the seniors purchased a television antenna as a gift to D.H.S. from the Class of '53, The biggest task of the year, however, was the production of the FUTURE CITIZENS.

Although Kenneth was a cap- able student in his other subjects, he displayed a more than usual interest in science and made good grades in all his science courses. l-le developed his natural taste for science by spending much of his spare time reading books and articles about various fields of science. This application of interest and effort along with his inquiring mind and high aptitude for doing thorough and accurate work, his ability to draw conclusions based upon experimental results and scientific evidence, and his contributions to the SOS club, earned for Kenneth the coveted science award.

DEAR SIR: Beverly Pruitt earned the commercial award this year, not only because she maintained the highest grade average in commercial subjects, but also because of her willingness to cooperate and her ability to do things well. Whenever there was a program to be mimeo- graphed or a master copy to be typed, Beverly could always be called upon. She also proved her industrious- ness in shorthand, bookkeepinghand in all her other subiects, for her name was always on the honor roll, Beverly did not limit her commercial work to school hours. Quite often she could be seen during the noon hour or before school cutting stencils and typing enroll- ment lists. Because of this effort to do more than just the required work in the commercial department, Beverly was well qualified to receive this award.

Jean Morris's great service to National and Local Thespians was acting well her part at all times. Whether it was acting a part on the stage, applying make-up, helping on the property crew, or directing a play, she performed equally well. It was her liking for every phase of play production that won the award for her. After portraying the amusing Miss Brooks in the junior play, Jean proved her acting ability as Mrs. Reed, a character part, in The Bishop's Mantle. In addition, she appeared in several one-act productions and directed two one-act plays. For these and many other accomplish- ments, she received the award of Best Thespian Girl for the year T952-53.

He appeared first as Ted, a high school boy, in the iunior play Our Miss Brooks, and second as Hilary Laurens, the serious minded clergyman, in The Bishop's Mantle. In addition to his acting, he has been of great serv- ice to the Thespians, both as an officer in the clubs and as an expert in the mechanical division of dramatic pro- duction. He served as president of Local Thespians his senior year. Because of his service to the Thespian clubs, Frank, in the opinion of the sponsors, came closest to achieving the ideals set up by the National Society and was presented with the Best Thespian award for the year T952-53.

The freshman sponsors, Mr. Kingsley, Mrs. Hess, and Mr. Duckett, must have iust thought of a clever stunt for the freshman 65- sembly. The Freshmen Are Confused The freshman class, consisting of one hundred and thirteen mem- bers, was lost and confused upon entering Drumright High School. But with the assistance of Mr. Duckett, Mr. Kingsley, and Mrs. Hess, they soon became adiusted to the first experiences of their high school career. Don Heffington was elected president, Shirley Ven- able, vice-president, Rosalie Ferguson, secretary-treasurer, and Jane Shore, yell leader. The freshman athletic teams had a very successful year. The iunior high football boys finished the season with three decisive wins while the basketball boys were able to cop first place in the Sand Springs tournament. The freshman basketball girls were vic- torious in three of their five scheduled games. Although there were no queens from the freshman class, Rosalie Ferguson and Patty Watson were football candidates, Shirley Ven- able and Bernice Collins were band attendants, and Rosalie Fer- guson was basketball attendant. Don Heffington, Jerry Clark, and Annette Henderson were freshman representatives to the Student Council. Later, Annette was a delegate to the state Student Council convention. , Rosie Ferguson became assistant yell leader,and Patty Wat- son was chosen as A band twirler. Don Heffington acted as emcee for the freshman assembly in March. For dramatic effect, a short skit, a character stunt, and a play entitled lmagine That were presented. Along the musical line, the Mello-tones sang two hit tunes. There were two piano solos and two modern-day western songs. Adding a burlesque touch, the freshmen's own Mae West fDiane Eubanksl enacted her version of Frankie and Johnnie. Their assembly was the finale of the freshman year. lt looks as if the future of D.H.S. is to be in good hands. FRIENDLY FRESHMEN.

While some students competed for athletic honors on the football field and on the basketball court, others supported them by generat- ing school spirit and enthusiasm in the pep club. Besides appearing at the games, the members of the pep club were the loudest yellers at pre-game assemblies, snake dances, and bonfires. They were also called upon to par- ticipate in the football and basketball queen coronations.

HELP! In Drumright High School, SOS cloesn't signify a call for help, instead, it stands for Students of Science, one of our busiest organizations. The SOS club was first organized in D.H.S. in I'-735. Ever since, it has been one of the most popular clubs in the school. With Miss Friend as its sponsor, the club met twice a month this year, and each meeting was packed with interest, education, and fun. James Dale Bateman, one of the members, constructed a telescope that actually worked. Consequently, the club decided to make astron- omy its proiect. But the members of SOS didn't limit their interests to star-gazing. A knowledge of all fields of sci- ence was their goal. Throughout the year there were lec- tures and films on electronics, photography, chemistry and many of the other sciences. The officers for the year were Wayne Mouser, pres- ident, Kenneth Lawson, vice-president, Jacque Bell, sec- retary, Barbara Kotthoff, reporter, and Virginia Peters, program chairman. 1 -54.. l ihhi l i Q l h c c ' Spirit of llarmony r c ccee , i Nothing adds more to The appearance and char- acter of Drurnright High School Than the spirit of harmony fostered by our colorful and compeieni' music deparfmenf. 4 ,x,,,,.M.,,.-ww wp j' NJN ,, - .N'f -- , Ma ,T , we -1 'W ... .-' ' 15- ., 4 fc, fan kk . , ,A Q' . -4- wg . .ml-P . .- ,n - , ag, , .

The Drumright iunior high football team enioyed one of its best seasons in recent years. Al- though they started slowly, losing their first three games by close scores, they finished the season in high gear. In the fourth game of the year, Sand Springs managed to tie the local juniors by scoring as the game ended. From there on, Drumright marched to three successive victories over Stroud, Bristow, and Chandler for a very successful season. In the Bristow and Chandler games, the local iuniors scored 3I and I8 points respectively while holding their opponents scoreless. DATE Sept. Sept. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct.

Our chief problem this year was lack of co- operation fronn our opponents. lt seems that when we scored a little, they scored a little more, and when we were able to score fairly frequently, they were able to score very frequently. The truth of the matter is that our final record was nine losses, no wins, and one tie, The varsity football team -was under the capable coaching of Buck Butcher, former D.H.S. grid star. Al- though we were somewhat less than a powerhouse this year, it was no fault of Coach Butcher, who spent many long hours trying to teach the boys the principles of good, sound football. Mr. Butcher as assisted by Ross Duckett, who played his college football on the I946 Sugar Bowl Champion squad from Oklahoma A. 8K M. The most encouraging aspect of our '52 season is the fact that we lost only two of our starting eleven, and, although we didn't win, we certainly received a liberal education in the fundamentals of football. ln addition to our regular season schedule, we played a total of eleven practice games. Though no scores were recorded for these scrimmages, they helped us learn many valuable lessons about football. With the painful experience gained this year and with the addition of several promising freshmen, our record next year should show vast improvement. -53- 1 QUICKIE TO THE RIGHT.

We per- mitted Hominy a bit more freedom in crossing the goal line. Final score, Hominy 26 - Drumright 6, Cleveland gave us a personal introduction to Donnie Vessels, little brother of Heisman-trophy-winner, Billy Vessels. Donnie was the big offensive gun as Cleve- land walloped us 34-6. We had Oilton beat 7-O, with less than thirty seconds to play, when we decided Tornadoes to score again by throwing a flat pass. Our flat pass was the best offensive play that Oilton ran all night, as they intercepted and scooted 91 yards for the tying score. Our over-ambition turned certain victory into a 7-7 tie. Although losing 33-24, we played our best game of the season against the Dewey Bulldogs. Jim Custer, senior left end, was the offensive star for Drumright, scoring three touchdowns, all on long passes. Jim's outstanding night had much to do with his being selected as an all- conference end. Pawnee gave us a 42-20 shellacing on their home field. The ride back to Drum- right surely was long. Our next game was at home, but we were defeated 13-O by a strong Stroud team, which marched on to the quarter-finals of the state championship. ..70- Jimmy Custer End Franlr Watson Bob ,linen Center WEIGHT YEARS CLASS J9l f'f'Y Custer David Seals Back Back T ' W , 0 , - wif JAME Iuster l60 2 Natson 150 l op larrett l55 l 5 Iuster 140 2 l 1 leals l39 2 QW 2-n lussell l55 2 affoon l95 2 'Q 42 I' .inam 165 l Soph.

We Are Proud Of The Varsity The Drumright cagers in their first year under the tutelage of Coach Mac Duckworth, brought an improved brand of basketball to Drumright High School. Compet- ing with some ofthe toughest teams in this area, the Tor- nadoes gave a good account of themselves during the 52-'53 season. Despite the absence of height and ex- perience, the Drumright round-ballers displayed hustle and determination, as they piled up a record of fourteen wins and nine losses. TWO FOR THE TEAM. Glen Ed Anderson and Roy Dan Stierwalt, Managers for the Drumright Tor- nadoes, do an excellent iob assisting the team. The highlights of the season were two surprising victories over their arch-rival, Cushing, and a double win over Tulsa Daniel Webster. Sapulpa and Cascia Hall, two teams which won berths in the state championship play- offs, were defeated by the-local cagers during regular season play. The team will lose only one boy, Johnny Custer, by graduation. Johnny was often called from the bench to steady an unexperienced team, Because he was so de- pendable, it will be difficult to replace him. FOLLOW - THROUGH.

Our B Team BUSY B'S. The Drumright B team had a very suc- cessful season, considering the strength of some of their opponents. Although they were our B team, they played scheduled games against A teams of other schools, Thus it was a great accomplishment for them to finish the season with a record of eleven wins and six losses. Gary McCrackin, Jim Russell, and Buck Salmon were leading scorers for the season, while the dominating re- GOAL GAZERS.

Ex- cellent ball handling was displayed by Gerald Black and Bob Giddeon, in fact, the whole team proved themselves to be truly basketball-minded. Since a number of the boys showed improvement during the season, they should help to strengthen the A squad next year. The success of the B boys' season shows that no matter who the foe, hard work and determination will pay off. GO GET 'EM, BOYS.

The A Girls Play The Game SUGAR N' SPICE. Under the guidance and fine coaching of Ross Duckett, the A girls became the Cinderella team of D.H.S. this year. From a group that won only ten games last season, they developed into one of the finest girls' teams in the state. Champions of the Midwest City, the district, and the regional tournaments, they became the second girls' team in the history of D.H.S. to Witt over thirty games in one season. The girls scored a grand total ot i448 points during the season and set a new all-time record by averaging over 40 points per game. This was accomplished while limiting their opponents to only lO22 points for an av- erage ol 28 points per game. Their overall record was thirty-two wins against tive losses. The high point of the girls' season came when they won the right to represent the north-central section of the state in the state championship tournament held in Okla- homa City. They became the third team from Drumright ever to gain this honor. Individual improvement, team spirit, and a tremendous desire to win were vital factors which helped make this group one of the finest teams ever to represent D.H.S. CHARITY TOSS.
