R .GQ W MZ I History of The Class of 927 Early in September of the year nineteen hundred and twenty-three a band of brave and bold students decided to conquer the four dangerous islands that stood between them and the Sea of Life. If they were able to conquer these islands they would be admitted to the Sea of Life and there they would iind happiness in store for them. If they were not able to conquer these, they might never reach the Sea of Life except by much suffering and hard knocks. With great determination these brave students decided to go on a conquest to these four islands and to be victorious. The first and most formidable of these islands was called by the inhabitants Green- land. This island was inhabited by terrible dragons and giants. Having arrived at this island they laid plans to conquer these terrible beasts. The three dragons which were considered the most dangerous were Algebra, Latin, and Rhetoric. Having conquered these with much disaster, some having perished in the encou.nter, they then easily subdued the less formidable dragons, Science and History. The Giants were then attacked. These were, Self-consciousness, Ignorance, and Strangeness. After being victorious over these, they were in complete command of the island of Greenland. This campaign was finished late in May' in nineteen hundred and twenty-four. They went into summer camp to recuperate and to re-enforce their troops and supplies until September, when they would continue to the second of these islands. The second and seemingly less dangerous of these islands was Mflise Acres. New recruits had joined the forces during the summer months. On arriving at this island they were greatly surprised to find the dragons were of the same type, only bigger and more hideous looking. First was Algebra which, after a short, hard struggle, was slaing then came the dragon Caesar with the fiery tongue. This encounter was very bloody, many never recovered, but after months of attack he was, also, slain. Then followed shortly the death of History and Grammar. The giants, Egotism, Brilliance, and Superiority were iinally conquered but only at the last of May in the year nineteen hundred and twenty-tive. Having conquered the first two of the islands they retired to summer quarters to await the opening of the fall campaign on the third island. They were greatly encouraged by their brilliant success in conquering these islands. In summer camp, they were not as interested in preparing for the third attack as they felt they had conquered the two islands appearing most dangerous. In September when the fall campaign opened there was a feeling of discontent and lack of interest. They embarked for the Isle of Charm. The leaders were greatly worried over the attitude of the warriors. This island, while appearing so easy to overcome, was filled with unseen and unheard of dangers. There were novel dragons to encounter and where the giants were on the preceding islands, there were living goddesss whose spells meant disaster to any who were entangled. There was the horrible, seemingly unpenetrable dragon, Plane Geometry. This en- counter was the cause of more downfalls than any of the former ones. They then got busy and were victorious over Biology, Literature, History and Spanish. Only a small force conquered the dragon Cicero. The goddesses in the meantime were playing havoc with the soldiers. The enticements to fall into the spells of these goddesses were hard to resist. They had worked hard conquering the other islands and they now wanted pleasure. The goddesses Leisure, Entertainment, Pleasure and Folly were so enticing that many fell within their spells, but the greater part came thru victorious and happy knowing that they had conquered their third island. In May they again went to summer quarters with happy hearts and bright hopes. In September of nineteen hundred and twenty-six they embarked for the Island of Reward. The band was of the worthiest plans and greatest energy. This island was conquered by conscientious work and endeavors. They had trained and prepared themselves so they would be competent to sail their ship safely over Life's rugged sea. They were aided by their able commanders, the teachers, in this lpreparation. Before launching out into the Sea of Life they took an mventory of their crew and cargo. The cargo was well supplied with Knowledge, Honor, Faith, Bravery and Honesty. . d h . Their crew was made up of forty brave and sturdy seamen. They then examine t e S81 s, next the rudder, finding them both safe and secure. The ship lay,at anchor ready to launch May 31, 1927.

Page twenty-one Classmates I know you have heard that old saying Ladies First : Well, I'll take it and use it for better or worse In speaking of classmates, the girls and the boys: The school for a playground and books for their toys. Some say they're as puzzling as great steamer's decks, These girls of our high school! They of the weak sexl Well, these that I speak of are well understood: There's Geneva in the corner trying hard to be good. Catherine is too good to argue or wheedleg And Fannie was vaccinated with a Victrola needle. And never to be forgotten is Laura the pest, She's always at ease if the joke's on the rest! In our athletics, Dixie's boss of them all 1 And Christine's the most beautiful in classroom or hall. There are Annabel and Doris-and Camille Chitwood, The ones that are beautiful, bringing joy to one's soul, Having boys for their slaves, well they're not on our roIl. But we've cooks, wives and waitresses in our class of today, Their success is assured. Yes, they're well on their way. And all of the others are pals good and true, If there's a doubt in your mind then the joke is on you. So, girls, think of schooldays, the happiness they hold, Of each pleasant memory, will they ever grow old? I will leave you this question to be answered by Time. Now think of the boys. May each thought be sublime! I will first take the president, who's best known as David, He's cultured, rejined, and so well behave'd,' Then Ewell Styers, our leader of cheers,' Tom Barkley, the hunter, and mostly of dears. There is Sally, the athlete, may his fame never perish, Bell's leadership in Math. we faithfully cherish. Haskell Lauderbach's known as a human loud speaker, Brewer's mind every day is growing weaker and weaker. And fresh from the country are Bradshaw and Tate, Six miles from the school house and have never been late. Always on time as is scheduled the train, At exactly eight-thirty enters Eugene McClain. Our next representative is Mr. Milton Magee, He dresses neater each day. Oh, who can she be? And Green is much brighter than his name suggests, And Marvin Reaves, our musician, much art does possess, The one with the very downcast homely face- But to mention his name would be an awful disgrace. We have parsons and lawyers and docs in our ranks, To these future high-ups we give many thanks And wish for our classmates the best things in life, May honor be their leader in their struggles and strife, And may as they trod along life's rugged way, Remember forever each happy school day. -Corliss Arnett.

After spending a year's time, they emerged unhurt from under an av- alanche of abuse and initiation cast upon them by the Sophs and upperclass- men. 21114212114 Time passed, and as the load upon this body of students became harder to carry, many became weary and dropped their burdens, turning to the out- side for anything that it would offer and at the same time starting on 1ife's long walk unprepared. ae vs ae Pk More time went by and the aforesaid three years passed. Again this crowd of students who had once appeared so dumb came before our vision, but instead of seeing a crowd of boys and silly girls, we see a group of sensible young men and young women bound together by A common memory of the past and hopes for a. better future. When the student becomes a Junior he or she has reached the period in his High School career when he begins to plan the occupation he wishes to follow through life. He has passed the age of sixteen, at which time he is most affected with what is known as Puppy Love. We feel that our class should be highly commended for it contains many honorable members, such as Charles Fooshee who was unanimously awarded the decision of being the biggest pest, also Boob Draper who was selected as the fairest of the High School lads, also Frances Curry who was chosen as the best liked girly Tansil Palmer, best liked boy and Ferd Hall, best athlete. The Juniors were well represented on the gridiron by such formidable players as Hall, who played half, Palmer, who played tackle, Draper, who played tackle also, Walker, who played guard, Fuller made a fine bench- warmer, and Curnutte made an excellent water boy. These boys did some mighty good work, and helped to give Dyersburg the championship of West Tennessee. Daniels and Craig represented the Juniors on the girls' basketball team, while Hall and Palmer represented them on the boys' team. The Junior class is composed of thirty-seven members, the girls being in the majority. It contains some mighty fine material for such future oc- cupations as lawyers, doctors, missionaries, teachers, boatbuilders, drug store cowboys, shieks, heartcrushers, liars, crapshooters and bums. Our Glee Club consists of Joe Burns, the boy with the laugh that is synonomous to the bray of a donkey. We would like very much indeed to mention other notable characters of our class whom we readily feel will some day have their names in the Hall of Fame, but due to the congestion of space, this must be sufficient.

'L U E' Q 4 ,o 1 135 '-K f - fo I MD If' 51 NV 2 A X r l Sophomore ,fy f A' Sophomore Class History On a bright September morning that will be forever remembered by us there was a very likely-looking array of specimen assembled in the Freshmen Study Hall. Some hailed from nearby towns while others were local lads and lassies. The class consisted of diamonds in the rough that, by '29, will be polished to dazzling radiance and will leave old D. H. S. with honor. We fearlessly entered upon the course of baffling algebra and into mysterious Latin with the vim and vigor that has been, and will continue to be, conspicuous in the class. The course was hard and the way was slow but by the end of the year when the haze had cleared the former Freshman Class had annihilated the hosts of Ignorance and were ready to receive, as a fitting reward, promotion to the next plane of learning. Hardly as many assembled at the beginning of this, another school year, as at the beginning of last. Now, as Sophomores, we can fully understand the mirthful glances that were directed toward us by the upper-classmen. We are even duplicating their performances on the new Freshman Class. At the beginning of this year we entered with renewed and even added anxiousness and desire to gain the knowledge that is ever before us. Thus we started our Freshman career. Now some have excelled in math, some in writing, others in debating and some' now possess the coveted letter of Dyersburg High that is only gained by hard work, perseverance and self-denial. Still others have forged to the front as leaders in the various student activities. Thus, in ending our history of this, a passed school year, we are prorud to say with all truthfulness and belief that we have done our utmost to promote and further the best interests of the school-not for ourselves but fofr the good of the school. --R.

I was very much surprised and delighted to hear that Mr. J. T. Bratton was principal of Dyersburg High School. After hunting him up and having a three hours talk with him about our old class this is what I learned: Garnet Banks is now a prominent artist after having studied art in Italy under Professor Koozelf. Elizabeth Brown has grown famous as a writer, having just finished the book, Reflections of An Old Maid. Sarah Drane has not decided whether to accept the tirst proposal or wait for another. Franklin Watson has recently received his Eagle Scout Badge and is a Scout Executive. Eldred Barnett is a throat specialist. Evelyn Holland is touring the Old World after inheritirfg a fortune. Ed Baker Tatum has just returned to Hollywood to start playing the hole in the doughnut in The Bakery Win- dow. Martha Little must prefer her maiden name, anyway she is a Latin teacher in Finley High School. Halbert King persuaded Maxine Turner to say yes after the third proposal. Mary Sue Trout was nearly drowned trying to swim the English Channel in too much traffic. Of course Rebecca Edwards has been Mrs. Charles Moss for the last twenty years. Elmo Speed has just added his 100th lunch wagon to his chain of famous Speed Lunch Stands all over the U. S. Aleene Stephenson is now a great society leaderg she is in Paris having her frocks made for the coming season. R. L. Summars is now a millionaire, after oil was discovered on his one acre farm. Paul Mc- David is owner of the X QX-lj Ranch. and is also looking for a lady who is willing to wear a gold band on the third finger of her left hand. Nell Curnutte is playing opposite Gordon Chambers in the film production School Days. Helen Eddleman is now married and sometimes resorts to the rolling pin. Sam Parker was admitted to the Bar and is specializing as a defense lawyer in criminal cases. Mary Hastings is studying to speak forcefully. It is not known whether she is going to be a Congresswoman or a. housewife. Myers Dewese is President of the Bank of the Ohio. Rosalyn Pickens is an old maid music teacher. Mose Yates is fire chief in Dyersburg, a town of 50,000 population now. Kathryn Biggs is teaching dancing-to her two daughters. Elizabeth Moss is a missionary to the newly discovered Mud Island in the Mississippi. Arval Burks just returned from the Olympic Games. Mary Frances Fowlkes is running a Beauty Parlor in New York. Helen Harbison is Coach of athletics at Penn School for girls. Alexander Moody is a prosper- ous doctor. Luther Moore spends his leisure hours on the farm playing mum- ble peg with his four lads. Florence McDearmond is Secretary to Senator Speakeasy of Tennessee. J. T. Fielder is a general contractor. George Harris Johnson has recently become rich from the invention of a motor, run entirely by hot air. V. H. Rayburn is a drug salesman. Thelma Armstrong and Laura Bell Lax are nurses in a Hospital in Oregon. Thomas Williams is Mayor of Dyersburg. Henry Watson, though not one would have thought it, is now a Minister of the Gospel. Rebecca Benefield now has great prowess as an Opera singer. Gordon Moore coached at C. B. C. last season. Zenith Peery is State Librarian. Virginia Hendren and brother are in the insurance busi- ness. Everette Reed has invented a preparation to keep the hair combed. Therefore the reader can see that we are justified in saying that this is the only class in history that has had every member to be a complete success. , M.S.T.-R.H.V.'29.

The infant appeared to be perfectly normal until its first toy was received from Miss Watson, and algebra, general science, manual training, domestic science, spelling, rhetoric and cooking were soon presented to it. These were gratefully received by the youngster and the rest of the family expected to have a small time to itself. In this they were mistaken, for at the last of the first month loud wails were heard which they knew were caused by his being tired of his new attractions. The class' first laugh was heard in the study' hall when it learned of its marvelous advancements during the first month. After this, loud peals of laughter, caused by successes, and many sobs, caused by failures, were heard from the different rooms of the high,-school's home. 'N The youngster gained in knowledge and behavior so well that it was soon envied by its sister and brothers, who were Sophie, Jr. and Sr. At the end of the first term the baby was promised a visit by the present- givers, who brought as offerings, exams. These presents were received and, while the class broke up some of them real soon, others were kept for over two days. After the departure of the present-givers, the baby class found a new amusement. These things he played with Lturned out to be toys that were harder to break than the first ones. This baby, at the end of the first year seemed to have been capable of filling one of the most important positions in High School, which is being the Freshman Class.

S., assembled at Central High School Sept. 14, 1927, with a determination to make a banner freshmen class of the years 1926 and 1927. ' One of our first achievements was the election of Howell Summers, as class president. With the co-operation of his classmates, he is achieving remarkable success, despite his handicap of daily reducing. Vivian Lee, one of our good looking girls, signed a contract to use a large amount of paint, powder, and lipstick, and her signature was O. K. Miss Rankley, the study hall teacher, referees the eraser battles and what she says goes. We get so rough sometimes in the study hall that Coach Mor- gan comes and referees us. We feel that we are steadily overcoming the difficulties that are lined be- fore us, and with continued perseverance to conquer present tasks, will be enabled to carry on that part of our education, derived from the 10th grade.

The students of the Senior-Sophomore division of the Literary Club of the Dyersburg High School, thought long and thoroughly before they de- termined what English author they would honor by making his name that of their club. On the outset they set a standard which their godfather must measure up to. They said: First, he must himself be a man in whose life we can find something to admire, second, his works must be of a character that they will endure, for if, later generations forget our godfather, surely we will be for- gotten alsog third, his works must have a variety and the deep-seated and often double-meaning of his best phrases must have puzzled critics ever since his day. In view of these standards they considered seriously the majestic sub- limity of Milton, the dignified classicism of Pope, the charming romance of Scott and the subtle realism of Dickens. They said within themselves: Surely any of these will meet our requirements. However, after more mature deliberation, they said: We find an author who combines and surpasses them all and meets our requirements in the fullest. Our godfather shall be neither Milton, nor Pope, neither Scott nor Dickens, but the friend of all our high school days, the sainted Shakespeare. Let the following criticism vindicate their choice. Sympathy, universality, humor, moral ideals, mastery of mother tongue, variety of style and his influence on the thought of later generations are the outstanding general characteristics that cause Shakespeare, by general consent to occupy the first place among the literary men of all nations and all ages. We find that each one contributed to his works that stand second, only to the Bible, in all literature. bk Pk 224 2? Shakespeare's influence on thought is evident in every subsequent author, almost without exception. Practically every great production since his time is not purely original, for the thought either directly or indirectly originated in his works or in the Bible. Those who have never read Shakespeare have been swayed by those who model their lives after his ideals. People who say they do not enjoy his works are found constantly quoting him either literally or in thought. If we but watch we can find his influence today in the pulpit, in the newspaper and in our every-day conversation. Can this be said of any other author with the exception of the authors of our sacred library, the Bible? The discussion of these seven characteristics but roughly sketch the powers of the greatest and most broad-minded man that ever wielded the pen. D. L. C., '27, Page thirty-five Edgar Allan Poe This short sketch of Poe's life is written for the Edgar Allen Poe Literary Club, which is, as can be seen by its name, dedicated to this man, who, we believe, is the greatest literary genius produced in the South. Edgar Allan Poe, generally regarded as a Southern poet, although born in Boston January 19, 1809, was the son of David Poe and Elizabeth Hopkins Poe, who were members of a travelling theatrical group. Unfortunately at the early age of about three years, Poe's mother and father both died and he was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. John Allan, Richmond, Virginia. Mr. Allan was a well-to-do tobacco merchant and gave Poe everything that could be desired. He was an extremely bright child for his age and even while only a youngster showed remarkable literary talent. When Mr. Allan moved to London in order to establish a. branch for his business, Poe accompanied him, and at- tended a boarding school there for about five years, after which they returned, and he was sent to the University of Virginia. He also attended West Point. An unfortunate taint to Poe's character was his love for strong drink, but this can probably be excused when one understands the hardships of his life. This caused the Allans to disown him and he was thrown on his own resources. He turned to literature for a livelihood and there gained the fame for which he is now noted both in American and abroad. His best works are The Raven, Tamerlane, To Helen, Annabel Lee, and Tales of Mystery, Imagination, and Humor. Poe, characterized by weird imagination in spiritual experiences, and by exquisite beauty in his lyric poems, has achieved his fame. As nearly all great poets, Poe died in poverty, in Baltimore, at the early age of forty. The real literary value of his works and his unequaled genius was not accredited him in his life-time, but both are realized now by the people of Europe and America, as is evidenced by the reputation which the South's greatest poet enjoys today.

By THOMAS BARKLEY Characters: Herald Man Maid Stage Setting: The stage is set to represent the sea-bottom. In the background is represented an old Greek galley, a great hole is torn in the side. This hole is a shadow-screen. Large green boulders, coral clusters, line the stage. In one corner is a cluster of brightly colored sea-anemones, tall. An octopus is barely discernable resting motionless on a great rock. Near the right center lies a great clam, closed. In the left front is a greenish mass, partly in the shadow. Three long varicolored plumes wave gracefully above it. The mass slowly erects, a youth stands. He wears a short cape, the plumes curl downward from his skull cap. I-Ie is the herald. The light gives the ocean-green effect, first overcast, then calm and serene. All characters are in iridescent dark green tights and wear skull caps. Herald: Know ye not, in long ages ago Before Attica's fame had spread, There lived a demi-god? Think, Surely you have heard of Pan. He the god of pleasure, musician, But he lived, half goat, half man. He was outwardly gay, inwardly sad, For he was loved for his music alone. Suddenly, mysteriously, he disappeared. Men said he went to dwell with the gods. The true tale, I am charged to tell. On him Zeus has cast a deep spell- Wait, my time like the storm above is o'er, And evening calm is emerging from the ocean's roar. fDepartsJ fSlowly the bi-valve opens and the valve again slowly closing freveals the girl which it has screened. fShe appears to have just awakened.

To pay tribute at his splendorous court. Where their hearts are consumed in liquid fire, But again come forth changed, purged, and pure. From this mysterious clime he rules the universe, With his own mighty attribute, Love. Without Love the very earth would disintegrate, Fall piece from piece, scatter into the vast void, And even you and I, would wither and dryg Blown here and there by the winds of chance.

L. B. , '27. Page ,forty ATHLETICS Coach Morgan Coach Morgan came to Dyersburg early in September and won the hearts of all the student body and the solid support of the school. First, he worked hard and diligently with the football team, and produced one of the best elevens that ever played on the hill. 'He is one of the most popular coaches that ever coached here, not only with the boys but with the girls also. With the basketball team he was equally as successful. He put the basket- ball team on a winning basis for the first time in years. As for baseball and track we are sure he will be equally successful. Let's give fifteen Rah's for the Coach. Page forty-one D., H., S. 'Varsity Hinky Hinson, Boob Draper, Louis Summers, Delbert Palmer, 'Charles Walker, Motley Toddy, J. T. Fielder, Sally Fowlkes, Ferd Hall, Halbert King, Red Moore. Facing the hardest schedule ever attempted by the school, including games with such teams as Jackson, Newbern, Brownsville, C. B. C. of Mem- phis and Trimble, the team was the best ever produced by the school. The team was not very heavy, but made up for this in speed and fighting spirit. The team was a credit to the school and always played clean and hard. The team entered every game with a spirit and iight that was not to be denied. Out of eight hard games we lost only one game, that to C. B. C. of Memphis, by the close score of seven to nothing. Not losing a game in the conference, the championship of West Tennessee was won again for the second straight year. We give the credit of all our success to Coach Morgan, who worked long and faithfully in the development of a winning team. Page forty-iwo The Squad The first call for practice was issued the first week in September. There were about thirty out for the first two weeks, after which some of them dropped out. Most of them remained loyal to the school and kept coming out all season. Those who did not make a letter did much to develop the team. For a team without subs is a failure. Those not making a letter this year should have little trouble making their letter next year. Only four men will be lost to the team this yearvby graduation: Fowlkes, captain and quarterg Summers, guard: Hinson, ehdg and Arnett, end. This should leave this year's team in good shape. No doubt they will have a wonderful team under able coaching. Here's hoping, anyhow. Only one man was lost to the team last year by injuries, that being Green, an end, who got his arm broken in the first game. Had this not happened he would have made his letter easily. Page forty-three A1111 Star Gridiron Players Named on All West Tennessee Team Page forty-four 1F11-om Evening Appeal FOWLKES Beginning with quarterback I name Sally Fowlkes, of Dyersburg, a 100 per cent improved performer. Fowlkes is a good general, can carry the ball splendidly, good on interference, and the best punter I have seen in a number of years. He is also a fine dropkicker and is unerring at forward passing. I have chosen Folwkes as captain, because he is a heady per- former and knows how to conduct himself while a game is in progress. HALL Ferd Hall, of Dyersburg, is one of my halfbacks. He is a wizard at sliding off tackle, stepping out of the arms of tacklers, and can receive forward passes like a col- lege man. Defensively Hall is unsurpassed. HINSON - Hinkey Hinson, of Dyersburg, is my choice for an end. Hinson, in my opinion, is the outstanding linesman of the year, a fast charger, vicious tackler, and ever alert. I have not seen his equal this year in high school football. PALMER Delbert Palmer, of Dyersburg, is my pivot man. Playing his first year of foot- ball he was a star. He is' the only center in this section this year who has been able to get down the field on punts and assist his ends in making a tackle, and he does this on almost every kick. On line plays he manages to smash through and do his part in cutting down the secondary de- fense. He is extremely accurate in pass- ing the ball back. Review elf llieeltball Season Facing one of the hardest schedules ever attempted by the school, the football team had the most successful team in the history of the school. Win- ning eight out of nine games, we easily won the championship of West Tennessee for the second straight year. After a month of strenuous practice we were ready for our first game on the first of October. The game was with Obion, whom we easily defeated to the tune of 19-6, using all the men we had. The next week we worked and trained hard for we realized we faced one of the hardest games on oiur schedule, that with C. B. C. of Memphis. The game was one of the hardest ever fought on the local gridiron. Late in the second quarter Hale, of C. B. C., got loose on a sixty-yard run around our left end for the only score of the game. Although we had the ball inside their five-yard line three times, we were unable to score. This was the only game we lost. C. B. C. beat us 7-0. On October 15 we easily defeated Ridgely by the large score of 76 to 0. The game was uninteresting and never in doubt. The next week, October 22, we took our first trip, going to Brownsville. They hadn't lost a game and were counting on beating us. In the hardest game ever played we came through on the long end of a 14-0 score. The game was well played and hard fought all the way-a great game to win and a hard game to lose. On the thirtieth of October our game with Southside in Memphis was called off by them. They were unable to pay our expenses. Our next game was in Covington on the 5th of November. We beat Covington badly, winning by large score of 65-6. November 11th, which was Armistice Day, we faced our ancient rivals, Newbern, on their own ground. The game was hard fought throughout. We were over confident and played poorly. Late in the third quarter we scored a touchown and won the game. The game was not as close as the score in- dicated. November eighteenth we played Jackson here with the championship at stake. We practiced long and hard that week. Mr. Hodge came up and helped us everyafternoon that week. We had lost our confidence and beat our ancient rivals for the first time in the history of the school. It was a hard fought game, but our fighting spirit was not to be denied. We won by the decisive score of 21-7. In the last game of the season, Thanksgiving Day, we removed our last obstacle from the championship, defeating Trimble for the third successive year by the score of 31 to 0. Page forly-five Q 15.1 The Games of the Season The first game of the season Was with Obion's coach and team. But the outcome never was doubted, It looked bad for them and seemed, As if the coach himself was routed From the field with team work fast, For our line was off the second That the ball from center passed. When the first touchdown was counted Fun and frolic began to mix, And the first game ended happily, Dyersburg nineteen, Obion six. Next week hard practice followed For the game with C, B. C., The invaders out of Memphis, All in all numbered thirty-three: They were fast and hard to tackle, But the Dyersburg line held true, And the times were not very many -When the brother's backs got thru'. Our team fought to the finish, Always gaining, losing none. But one bad break in the second quarter, And the game for them was won. So the next game was with Ridgely, Which was in fact no game at all: They were green in gridiron warfare, And knew nothing of football. So we then began invasion Of foreign fields of fame, Our first opponent being Brownsville- We just couldn't lose that game, So we started with the fighting spirit, That spirit of the Black and Gold, And the victory over Brownsville Shows that spirit will ne'er grow old. We were then supposed to play Southside, Another of our 1Memphis foes: But the game with us was cancelled By them as the story goes. ' Page forty-six ,, il. Then came the game with Covington, Uncertain at the start: But the team settled down to business And everyone did his part. So we were again victorious And happy! Yes, everyone, And we telegraphed back to D. H. S. That another game was won. Then our thoughts were turned to Newbern An enemy brave and bold: But they, as others of the season, Were victims of the Black and Gold. So back to our ground of battle With a game with Jackson Highg In the balance hung the championship, We had to win that game or die, We started as at other times As faithful warriors do fTo never go down in dire defeatj For the dear Red, White, and Blue. Game over-We the victors- D. H. S. twenty-oneflackson seven, And champions of West Tennessee, Hail!!! The D. H. S. eleven. The last game was with Trimble, Trimble 0,' Dyersbarg thirty-one. So bid hello to the coming season, Good-bye to the season done. We were helped by Mr. Walker, Student body, faculty, all, Giving lessons in football. But to a successful football season We give credit to our coach: He's a man that's loved by everyone, And him we'll never reproach. -Corliss Arnett.

Basket Ball Records BOYS' TEAM The Dyersburg basketball team began their '26-'27 season on December 7th. They played steadily every week after this with an intermission for Christmas. The first game with Crockett Mills was a victory for D. H. S., thus starting the season well. Worthy was the star in this game. Their next victory was over Ridgely Hi. The time runs extended five minutes to play off the tie which resu.lted in the end. The game was played on Ridgely's own court and was especially satisfying because it was Dyersburg's first victory over Ridgely in several years. Burks and Fowlkes, forwards, played tine. Ridgely, seek- ing revenge, defeated D. H. S. two weeks later. Between these two games came the Maury City game, which was the first defeat for the Dyersburg boys. Hall and Palmer did good work on the defense in this game. , On January 22, Dyersburg was defeated by Friendship by eleven points. They suf- fered a defeat from Halls a week laterg Lauderbach doing nice work in this game. In the next game with Millsfield the boys came out of their slump and were victorious, doubling Millsfield's score. Dyersburg defeated Tiptonville next, not allowing them to score after the first quarter. On February 18-19, the district tournament was held here. There were twelve teams entered. Dyersburg was defeated by Maury City, a strong team which went to the finals. Trimble won the tournament from Maury City in a hard fought game. ' A I GIRLS' TEAM . The girls' basketball team of Dyersburg High School began the season as the boys did by playing Crockett 1VLills. The girls played on a foreign court though, and were beaten by a large score. This, however, did not discourage them and in the return game they held them to a two-point victory in a hard fought struggle on our own court. The next game was a victory for the D. H, S. over Spring Hill, the Dyersburg girls doubling their Score. Being encouraged by this victory, they fought through two more victories, one with Newbern, one of the foremost rivals, and one with Alamo, which is considered a very strong team. Alamo came back with a victory on their court the next week, defeating Dyersburg with as great score as they were beaten. In the next game, which was a return with Newbern, Dyersburg again romped on their rival, and kept up the good work by defeating Milan in the next game, which was played on the Dyersburg court. The girls then played Covington, one of our greatest basketball rivals, and defeated them with a good advantage in points. Martin, the next opponent, was defeated on our own court in a hard fought game. Then the girls suiered a break in their victories and lost to Troy and Obion, playing Obion a hard game in which' the O. H. S. girls were nearly beaten. Having been beaten by such a narrow margin, the girls prepared, and defeated Obion on the home court in the return game. On January 22, Covington came in for another defeat, losing by a large score. In the next two weeks Dyersburg suffered three defeats, although they were with the strong teams, Martin, Millsiield, and Union City. On February 11, Dyersburg defeated Tipton- ville by a good margin, and then began to prepare for the Tournament on February 25-26. Dyersburg was first pitted against Alamo and won, which sent t.hem to the semi-profes- sionals. They lost in the semi-inals to Crockett Mills, but by playing in the semi-finals were eligible to the West Tennessee Tournament at Jackson. , Page forty-nine Baseball and Track Firsf Row-Sally Fowlkes, Royce Pillow, Arvel Bucks, Scally Lauderbach, Rocky Palmer, Joe Burns, Louis Summers, Bill Chambers.
