The 1957 Locust has been Written ancI pI'xotog'rapI1ecI for the students of 1937 with aII its copy intended to reHect student lite of 1937. The ultimate goal of the staff in build- ing' this Iaook was truly picturing' the East Texas campus. its personalities., its activities, and its philosophies of 1937. ll y 1? , gs vnu., , . Recording events and achievements, the Locust staff has aimed to picture the students as they moved through the scenes of the year. but. regaftness of extenclecl efforts, the aims and purposes have not been as completely accomplished as originally con- ceived. Nevertheless the Editors jfesent this book with the hope that its contents will forever-:stimulate cherished menmories of thoughts, actions, and person- alities of 1937 on the campus of East Texas State, 11 1 n X 1 'wa .fe-vpi': ?T?'i?W'?

These buildings included the Main, Industrial Hall, Heating Plant and Girls' Dormitory on which build- ings improvements totaling an expenditure of 5B200,000 have been made. Main, a brick with basement and three stories, contains administrative offices, auditorium, and laboratories for physics and chemistry as well as numerous class rooms. Industrial Hall, a 350,000 brick building, is used for science laboratories, departmental ofhces, offices of the Dean of Men and Dean of Wfomen, girls' gymnasium, shops, and industrial arts. A total of 3-370,000 has been expended in remodeling this structure since 1917. Supplying the steam heat for the campus, the Heating Plant is operated with natural gas and also houses the machine shop for the metal workers. The Girls' Dormitory, on which improvements are continually made, con- tains offices, a large living room, a spacious dining room and kitchen as well as the rooming quarters. . The Thirty-eighth Legislature appropriated S275,000 to be used in the erection of an educa- tion-auditorium building. This three-story structure accommodates the training school, an auditorium with a seating capacity of twenty-two hundred, and a gymnasium as well as offices and classrooms. Offices for the President and the Dean of the college are located in this edihce. Fire-proof and modern in every respect, it is constructed of dark, red velvet brick, trimmed with terra cotta and covered with concrete, gravel and asphalt. Following this addition to the cam- pus, a modern home for the President was constructed in approximately the same style. VVith the appropriation of fiB200,000 for the construction of a modern library building by the Forty-first Legislature, a three story building was erected containing a large reading room. seven class rooms, eight seminar rooms, four floors of stack space for books, a museum, a child's library room, and several offices. The extensive and spacious reading room is two stories in height finished with a beautiful bronze effect, and all the floors of the entire building with the exception of the lower corridor is laid with moultile. After the old gymnasium burned, a new athletic plant was erected and ready for use by the summer of 1935 at a cost of 340,000 Additional improvements have greatly increased the cost of the structure which contains one large court with an enormous seating capacity, several store rooms, shower rooms, recreation rooms, dressing rooms and a series of offices. Construction under the plan of the Federal Government's Public VVorks Administration made possible a new Boys' Dormitory at an expenditure of 5S106,000. Ready for use during the summer of 1936 and accommodating seventy boys, this structure houses a modernly equipped cafeteria, a recreation room, laundry room, offices, eighteen bath rooms, thirty-six bed rooms and a suite of rooms for the director. Purposing to give home economic majors an opportunity to meet the administrative and social problems involved in group living, a Home lvlanagement Residence was erected in the spring of 1936 with an approximate cost of 38,000 This modern home is adequately furnished at a cost of 351,600 Page Z4 I . g r M? 1 V. -:-' mmwfbuvtcan . . .

In 1917 it became the property of the State, and has been operated since that time as the East Texas State Teachers College. Prior to that time it was known as the East Texas Normal College. , During the period of its operation as a private institution, approximately five hun- dred students were graduated from the col- lege. Since that time, 2,766 have been gradu- ated. More than 6,000 people have been trained within its halls and classrooms. Annual enrollment has increased until now approximately 3,200 individuals receive in- struction here during the course of a year. Men and women trained in old East Texas are now scattered throughout the length and breadth of America. You, this year, join this vast army of ex-students.

A., 1908. One of the outstanding golfers of the faculty is the Dean, who also persists in hunting as well. His eyes are blue-gray and his hair gray. Five feet, nine in height, he weighs 165 pounds. Outside of sports his interest lies in social welfare in school and church. LENVIS I. SMITH Business Manager' B. S., East Texas State Teachers College, 1926, M. A., Southern Methodist University, 1928. With dark brown. hair and gray eyes, Mr. Smith stands five feet, five and one-half inches and weighs 110. Of the oddities concerning him, he doesn't play golf and has no hobbies-perhaps his work being his major interest has some- thing to do with this. To him reading is a pastime and foot- ball a great sport. JOHN S. WINDELI. Registrar B. S., East Texas State Teachers College, 1926, M. A., Southern Methodist University, 1932. A blue-eyed blond standing six feet, one and a half inches and weighing 170, that's Mr. Windell-a sporting man at that. He takes his golf rather seriously, loves his football, adores any sport, is very enthusiastic concerning the miniature farm in his back yard, and is devoted to his work. Page Z8 Executives ii fi E. H. VVRAY Dean of rllerzkfleaci of English Department B. A., Yale University, 1911, M. A., Chicago University, 1918. A Dominating the activities of the genial Dean of Men are golf as his favorite recreation and sport, chess as a hobby, and reading as a pastime. Teaching English is a pleasure and interest as well as work with him. Five feet, ten inches in height, weighing 173, he has blue eyes and greying hair. JULIA HUBIIELL Dean of Women B. A., University of Florida, 19215 M. A., George Peabody College for Teachers, 1922. Five feet, three, gray eyes and hair, doesn't have any particular hobby, likes walking, swimming and tennis but doesn't play golf, and reads for pastime-those are the quali- ties that make up our Dean of VVomen. She is also enthusi- astically interested in the social development of people. OPAL WILLIAMS Librarian B. A., Texas State College for VVomen, 19259 B. S., Library Science, University of Illinois, 1931. Collecting pictures of libraries and books of unusual bind- ings are the Head Librarian's hobbies. She likes no sport especially and doesn't play golf because of lack of time, but books are her major interest. Auburn haired and gray- eyed, she is five feet, four inches in height.

AGRICULTURE It has been the aim of the department of agriculture to offer courses which will enable students to familiarize themselves with the general subject matter and methods of teaching. The courses have been so planned as to give teachers and principals of rural schools such practical information as is neces- sary for them in teaching pupils who live in an agricultural environment. Also the stu- dent who may go further into the field may gain the basic subject matter from these courses. ART It is the purpose of the art department to train students to see beauty in the simple every-day things of life. It is the mission of art to develop and instill a knowledge of harmonious lines, colors, and proportions whether they be in a great masterpiece or a simple vase. Art gives us a better under- standing of how to live more fully and more beautifully. CHEMISTRY Offering courses in the basic inorganic and organic chemistries as well as inorganic analy- sis and organic analysis and synthesis, the department of chemistry gives students an opportunity to gain a knowledge of the basic principles involved. Other than fulfilling pre- medical requirementsg preparation for enter- ing the field of chemical research can be hadg however, the major objective is giving the student a thorough knowledge of the funda- mentals. BIOLOGY l1Vith three major purposes the biology department carries on in its examination of specimens of nature. These purposes are to prepare teachers of the subject, to offer courses for pre-medical requirements and to teach those who wish to enter the growing field of biology. The studies are varied from actual study of nature to home nursing. BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION This department purposes to prepare teachers for those pupils in the high schools who feel the need of instruction along com- mercial lines. For years this department has instructed students who wish to go directly from school into the commercial Held. Con- tinuing this policy of training teachers and those who plan to do commercial work, the department endeavors to prepare those desir- ing to participate in the great commercial expansion. Page 35 l-91. ll ll THE 1937 LOCUST EDUCATION This department is designed to prepare students for the profession of teaching. As the field is so large, the aim of the education department is to broaden the background of the training teacher and to enable him to meet the demands of present-day curriculum requirements. The needs of the teacher are studied, deficiencies are eliminated and methods of improving present existing condi- tions are observed. ENGLISH It is the aim of the English department to train men and women who desire to become more proficient in the art of written and spoken English and instill in them a love of better literature and an appreciation of the hner elements of poetry by a careful study of recognized masters of the field. A special course in journalism has been added this year to aid those interested in entering the com- petitive field of professional writing. FRENCH In order that the student may gain some knowledge and understanding of the French people, their land and their language, this de- partment lays particular stress on the funda- mentals of grammar and a series of selected readings. A more complete understanding of real French life is gained by a study of the literary works of great French authors. The outstanding activity of the department is that of the French Club, an organization providing a social hour with practice in conversational French. GEOGRAPHY As education in its breadth equips one to fit readily into new situations so geography develops thought habits by which man makes profitable adjustment to natural environment. The manner in which natural resources are used by groups of people needs scientihc guidanceg hence, three aggressive nations now have planning commissions reworking political and economic patterns within their areas. Geog- raphers are prominent in these commissions. Geography strives to interpret the use groups as well as individuals make of nature's offerings. HISTORY Explaining the situations of today and tomorrow by a study of yesterday, courses in history encourage the belief that through a knowledge of the past future as well as present conditions can be analyzed. Beginning with a basic freshman course in history of civiliza- tion followed by more detailed studies in European history and history of the Americas, the work in this department gradually branches out into more specialized fields for the advanced student. Page 36 HOME ECONOMICS Emphasizing careful food selection and its preparation, the department of home eco- nomics undertakes to instruct in the making and maintaining satisfactory relations with the family and community. It is the duty of the department to study the care and manage- ment of the home and to aid in the solution of problems met in the field by teachers of home economics. IND USTRIAL ED UCATION In order to serve the student, the industrial education department trains him to do a special and distinct type of work particularly desired by the student after he has acquired a general knowledge of the field. Mechanical drawing, metal work, woodwork and design- ing and construction are among the courses offered those entering this large field of work. LATIN Since so much of the English language is derived from Latin, the courses in this de- partment are designed especially for the pur- pose of giving the student a knowledge of the historical developments and of the various elements found in the English language. Latin literature is introduced and a study made to enable the student to teach this language in secondary schools. LIBRARY SCIENCE Library science courses are offered for the purpose of introducing the teacher-librarian to the fundamental records, processes, admin- istrative methods, techniques and the litera- ture peculiar to the organized library service for small junior and senior high schools, or for the teacher-librarians in elementary schools. The only course offered to freshmen is a library orientation course. To the junior and senior is offered library administration, classification and cataloging. MATHEMATICS The mathematics department purposes to give the student a thorough knowledge of the principles of mathematics and their applica- tion. In achieving these aims a careful an- alysis is made of the subject matter of com- putation and the modes of presenting these materials to the secondary school pupil. These courses are designed to meet the needs of the student who wishes to specialize as in- structors in the Iield of education. Page 37 ll l' V- l ll 1 Fx S if ff ei if fi , ,. R Q. m 'fi ll .

MUSIC It is the purpose of the courses in this department to teach rhythm, melodic beauty, and moods in music. Many great operas have been heard by most of the music students this year with the purpose of developing within the pupil a true appreciation of the best types of music. Studies in conducting bands have been offered along with independent cultural courses and a review of the history of music. PHYSICAL EDUCATION FOR MEN Continuing the great work of building athletes for college activities and producing coaches to further the assistance being given elementary and secondary school students re- quiring physical training, this department has been very successful. Adding new sports, wrestling and boxing, the department is mak- ing great strides forward. Courses dealing with the science and psychology of this type of work are offered through this department. PHYSICAL EDUCATION FOR WOMEN Aiming to teach corrective exercises and athletic sports, the courses in this department devote much time to study of rules, instruc- tion and practice in fundamentals of major sports and athletic games for women. Danc- ing has played a prominent part in the ad- vancement of physical education for women here, with special emphasis being placed on the modern dance. PHYSICS The purpose of the courses throughout are to prepare students to teach the subject in high school. A study is made of the funda- mentals in the freshman course followed by more detailed advanced courses in light, heat, sound, electricity and magnatism. Numerous experiments are carried on to demonstrate theories and facts of the subject. ECONOMICS In economics, a study is made of the opera- tions, functions and institutions 'of our eco- nomic organization, with a special considera- tion of effects and controls in the interest of social welfare. Emphasis is placed on the techniques of teaching elementary economics, relating economics to business contacts, prac- tices and education. The problems of produc- tion, prices and standards of living are also among the problems discussed.

Page 38 COVER NM ENT Every student is required to take the course in government of the United States with a special emphasis upon the constitution of both the National and State governments. Acquainting the student with the governments of the world, courses are offered concerning European governing systems and the govern- ment of American cities and counties. Texas school laws and business laws are investigated to give a better knowledge of existing law principles. SOCIAL SCIENCE As the name implies, these courses make a close study of society, its nature, and the factors of social life. It is the purpose of this subject to lead to investigation of problems arising in modern society, their causes and effects, and measures toward remedying them. The community and its history, the nature and development of culture are all parts of the social world playing an intricate part in sociology. SPANISH As the Spanish speaking countries are our closest neighbors, courses in this department acquaints the student with the habits, cus- toms, language and literature of the Spanish people. To do this stress is placed upon con- versation, grammar and literature involving Spanish art and life. Selected Spanish novels are read and discussed while original themes and literary criticisms are written and read. SPEECH Speech aims to teach the fundamentals of vocal and actional expression. A study is made of types of original speeches, of audience situations and of drama as a creative art. The department discusses topics of current interest with the student and applies the principles of argumentation to spoken debate. Theatrical productions are studied and a few plays are enacted during the year. GRADUATE DIVISION Recognizing the need of a graduate pro- gram at East Texas, the Board of Regents has authorized such work to be done in keeping with a long established policy of progress. Last summer courses were olfered for the first time for work leading to the master of art or science degree. This work is under the super- vision of the Graduate Council which is pictured in action in the photo to the right. Page 39 ' A-'sfo - . ,N ..-,'g ,L ' 5 f . ' a like -J E Q41 I 7 ei 1 .

SELLERS President URPOSING to devote its time to specific duties pertaining to student activities and student welfare, a Student Council was organized during the year 1919-20, even though student self- government was not fully instituted until the year of 1922. Since that time the Council has promoted promptness at collegiate exercises, quiet and orderly conduct in the buildings and on the campus, habits of self-controlg aimed to strengthen high ideals of student responsibility, to develop the finest and noblest school spirit, and to control in co-operation with the administration all student activities and functions of student govern- ment. The Student Council is composed of the President, Vice-president, the Secretary of the Association, and one representative elected from each class, Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior. The first two offices are filled by the general election in the spring, the third by Council selection, and the latter four by class elections in the fall. The group meets semi-monthly, but extra sessions may be called by the president at his discretion.

NIELUGIN Ksrxnizx' 1Tn two exceptions it is a great life to be a class officer in East Texas State. Outside of the senior and fresh- men presidents there is no work for class officers, a little pub- licity with a picture or two in the paper, and some prestige. However, this is no fault of the officers themselves, but the fault lies in the fact that classes no longer hang together as they did back in the good old days when they fought unitedly against each other in general elections, in yell-leader selec- tions, for Locust beauty pages, and even from a physical stand- point. In those times they had class partiesj knew their class- mates, and had a feeling for a fellow classmate that no longer exists. It is a sad plight and diminishing to school spirit as well as depriving of activities that would result in cherished memories of college days. Nevertheless, these two class officers have in their official capacities the conducting of a small amount of this class spirit that still remains with the students-that of senior week and freshman week. Both are built around traditions that will continue long into the future. The BLASSINGAMR i l I l 6 . Q OWENS I-IARLAN I.

PROMOTING the aims of student self-government and furthering the ' spirit of unity and co-operation by bringing the students together into one organized body, and by establishing definite relations between that body and the administration of the college, student self-government in theeEast Texas State Teachers College was instituted in the year of 1922. - During the spring of that year a petition was presented to the president and deans of the college by petitioners numbering more than one4third'of the student body, At 'the close of the discussion, the student body .voted by a large majority in favor of some form of student govern- ment. Committees were elected and appointed in accordance with the student petitionuwith the result that a constitution and by-laws Cwith amendments- by the student bodyj were adopted by the students. The original document was revised in 1934 by the student council and a faculty advisory committee.

V Closing their four years of activity on the campus of East Texas, the seniors of 1936 celebrated their coming graduation the week of May 18-23. On Monday, the last class meeting of the year was held to complete plans and preparations for the week and the much anticipated commencement. The following day Dr. S. H. Whitley delivered an address in assembly, and both he and Mrs. VVhitley were hosts at the annual senior reception that evening. Starting the action in earnest, a theatre party on Wednesday evening began the series of gay entertainments. In Thurs- day's assembly a drama titled A 1980 Graduation was enacted by the class, and that night Maude Noyes, sponsor of the class, entertained with a lawn party at the home of T. H. Brady. Presenting another play in F riday's speciaiassembly, the class dramatized And the Lamp Went Out. That afternoon, an picnic completed the activities for the day. Saturday, the closing day of senior week, included the annual homecoming celebra- tion and the climax of the week, the mammoth pageant of Texas history held on the athletic field that evening with Queen Almena Perry and her King, Gerald Pope, reign- ing over the festivities. Freshmen under President Lamar Holley ruled the campus during the week of Feb- ruary 15-20. The Fish assumed the upper-hand, gained revenge for the many previous hours consumed in serving the upperclassmen, and took over the duties of the officers of the Student Association with Holley as president of the Student Council, Paul Goff and Rex Coppedge as editor and business manager of the East Texan, and Brice Stone and Don Foster as editor and business manager of the Locust. Also the slimes out-pulled the Sophomores in the annual tug-of-war, proving there is power in numbers, raised the traditional green Hag which the Sophs soon gained with the aid of fireworks, and ended the week's celebrations with a dance in the Cub gymnasium. Other than the two outstanding weeks, numerous dances, picnics, theatre parties and various forms of entertainment held the spotlight of class activity during the year.

Membership in the club is a matter of invitation, and selection of members from the student body is dependent upon two factors, usefulness and merit to the club and to the college. During the past year the club has spon- sored an all-college dance, an amateur pro- gram, an annual dance and numerous parties throughout the year and during its anni- versary week celebrated with a dinner dance, a chop suey dinner, theatre party and a barbecue. ANDERS Bnoorcs B ULLOCK FULLER GATEWOOD HARRISON HART HAYES HENDERSON HIGGINS HORTON HUGHES KELLETT LONG For the successful and creative year the Artemas give much credit to their efficient and enthusiastic sponsors, Vernon Hughes, Miss Eusibia Lutz and Doug Mitchell. The Artema Club with the aid of .these sponsors has attained its prom- inent place on the campus today.

From 3, called each year to take active part in student government and other campus activities. These men in the past have been tradi- tionally able leaders, a credit to their college and to their club. ' '53 During the past year the organization inaugurated a system of programs at its weekly meetings where musicians, lecturers and faculty members were heard at various times. Aside from the serious purposes of the Club, the Friars make a definite contribution to the social life of the campus. The annual dance last spring with music by Irving Rose and his band was the highlight of the social season. Already this year the club has en- joyed picnics, a smoker and a dinner-dance as well as formulating elaborate plans for the traditional annual dance in May.

The club's men are picked wisely, and accordingly many of them are honored with student offices, athletic captaincies and positions of leadership in various extra- curricula activities. One of the chief aims of each individual member is to make an outstanding contribution to some worthwhile campus endeavor.

Concluding activities of the week, Marpessa staged a Squaw Party on Thurs- day night, 'Kalir a Jungle Party later the same night, Les Choisites a formal dinner carrying out a nautical motif Friday night, and Tooanoowe a Studio Party later Friday night. After the day of silence, Saturday, October 24, pledgeships were extended and accepted by thirty-five rushees who were entertained that night with buffet suppers and slumber parties. Completing the seige of annual dances during 1936, the Les Choisites and Friars gave their annual invitation dances on May 9 and May 29, respectively. Carl Allen furnished the music for the Les Choisites and the late Irving Rose for the Friars. Numerous all-college dances were sponsored by various organizations during the summer session and continuing in the fall.

Kalir on February 13 had its Valentine Dance with Glenn Lee, and the following Saturday Tooanoowe staged its Birthday Anniversary Dance with Hogan Hancock playing. A series of all- college hops intervened for a few weeks, and then again two more annuals came within a week-Ogima with Ken Moyer on April 3 and Artema with Bobby Grayson on April 8.

As captain of the 1937 football team, Swede's ability to inspire was at its highest. Incidentally, he won his third varsity letter in football as Lion captain. He was chosen student assistant manager of the Boys' Dormitory the first year of its existence. In 1936, while a junior, Swede was elected vice-president of the student council. Socially, he is an Ogima, and this year served as Omnipotent of that organization. CLYDE BUCHANAN For fifteen years a student on the East Texas campus- that's the record of Clyde Buchanan. Such a span of years would indicate dumbness, but Clyde's scholastic record has been strictly honor roll. The fifteen years merely sees her from Training School kindergarten through college. Clyde's two major organizations are Tooanoowe and Alpha Chi. As a senior, she was elected president of the social club, and her brilliant grades are responsible for her membership in Alpha Chi, honor society. JAM ES EDGAR Doc Edgar, junior student doing pre-medical work, has many interests to occupy his leisure moments. First, it may be noted that he is a tennis player, and a good one. Publications enter his daily schedule as he is assistant business manager of the Locust. As a Friar, a member of the student council, and a serious suitor-his time is further taxed. Doc is another socialite who has startled authorities by proving to be an honor roll student as well. I-Ie is the male member of the Richland trio of Edgars. Page 124 r i . iw lla Who's Who f JOH NNY GARRISON Although receiving during a mid-season game an injury which hindered his performance for the remainder of the schedule, Halfback johnny Garrison rated honorable mention on the Little All-America football team of the Associated Press. Besides being the first East Texan to ever gain such recognition, johnny is a dash man in track and works as stu- dent assistant to the registrar. Of campus fashions he is among the leaders of the collar-coat style. He's a sophomore hailing from Eastland and married, too. MARY DOT YOUNG - From her facial expression comes the impression that de- notes Mary Dot Young is a columnist-yes, she is the insti- gator of that commentary collection of happenings which is usually termed This Week, and it is one of the best ever published in the East Texan. On the Locust staff, she pounds out features and grindg at athletic contests, she leads the yellsg and on the campus, she's an all-round girl who dishes out the laughs and takes the cracks. It is rumored that this Too- anoowe is interested in ex-grind writers and sluff players. BILL DEFEE Outstanding in athletics, proficient in student govern- ment, excelling scholastically-that's Bill Defee who holds the conference record for the javelin throw in track which he set when a sophomore, was all-conference halfback the same year and on the second string of all-conference selections the following year, is champion ping-pong player on the campus, has been on the student council three years, is vice-president of the council this year, and still keeps his record of an honor roll student. From his looks in the picture, this Friar must have been looking at a photo of some popular girl or, per- chance, himself. Pagu 125 i . ,--1-,-U 1 '-,S Mets ? E . 1..iz,:..1 .1 . Q, -,., ,.

X it Who's who I DARRELL TULLY The Lions' most versatile athlete is Darrell Tully who won all-conference second team honors at the end position when only a sophomore. Next year he will play the tail back position. Other than football his interest lies in the track weight events during' that season. He is a Friar and sophomore representative to the Student Council. His other excelling qualities lie in his handsome features and his friend- liness with the kid gym-hanger-arounders. IVIILDRED POTTER She's a veteran columnist as the shape of her mouth in- dicates. Mildred Potter with Dear Diary, This VVeek and Dear Suzy representing one year each of her commentary efforts has also been society and feature editor of two Locust publications. Other than being a journalist, she is a student assistant librarian and a Tooanoowe. A rather frivolous young' girl in her opinions, she has had many so-called crushes. VVEND ELL JORDAN Another who has been on the campus fifteen years is Wendell jordan who is completing his first year as yell leader, is a chemist as well, and still remains a social leader even though a majority of his time is spent with one girl. His remarkable number of good qualities make him universally liked. This Ogima was most popular boy and president of his senior class in the Demonstration School. Page 126 ROBERT HAYES Another tennis player-socialite is Robert Hayes who claims Farmersville as his home town. Robert, playing the No. 2 position on the squad, is tennis captain this year while his social duties evolve from the Artema club of which he was president last year and vice-president this year. He is another serious suitor and works as student assistant manager at the cafeteria where the cameraman was able to detain him long enough to get this picture. MARGARET LOW Working as assistant to the Dean of Men, Margaret Low gained campus popularity from what she thinks a trite phrase - excuse our cuts. Presidencies of organizations are noth- ing new to Margaret as she headed the Marpessas last year, Sigma Tau Delta during the first semester and her boarding house. Publications enters her college routine since she was on the East Texan staff for three years and the Locust this year. She is now teaching near Pittsburg and will return for graduation this spring. JOHNNY WRIGHT Possessed with an unusual combination of friendliness and energy, johnny Wright has earned the title of the cam- pus' busiest man. For a while johnny split time working in the library, on the campus and at the drug store-studying no one knows when-and now he devotes a majority of his time to jerking sodas and at home-after giving everyone a surprise by getting married.

An all-conference end this year, he is also one of the best defensive cage guards in the conference, and in track he handles the weights and jumps the hurdles. Aside from athletics he is a member of the Friar club and another of the married men. JO LEE TITTLE Being exceptionally friendly and an excellent dancer, Jo Lee Tittle was chosen most popular girl last year. She has been yell leader the past two years and has thus aided in de- veloping the splendid school spirit that East Texas recently acquired. Although excelling in acting as far as being among the campus' best, she still intends to teach. She's a member of Les Choisites. W OODROW KEAH EY W'oodrow Keahey is the only Etex athlete ever to win official all-conference rating for two years, both being con- secutive seasons at the position of tackle. At a majority of the football contests he was acting captain while in basket ball he was co-captain. This Friar has three diamond-studded gold awards in addition to six jackets and sweaters, is presi- dent of the T Association and sings bass. Page 128 Who's Who ALVIN RIX A pre-medical student with a journalistic turn leaning towards sports writing, Alvin Rix is Editor of The East Texan and has devoted a great amount of his time to both student publications during the past three years. In spite of the burden of editing and writing and of taking laboratory courses towards fulfilment of pre-medical requirements, his scholastic record has placed him within the honor division, Alpha Chi. He is vice-president of the Texas Intercollegiate Press Asso- ciation and a member of the Friar club. IZLSIIS LOVISLACE Presiding' over Sigma Tau Delta and Marpessa, Elsie Lovelace attains the distinction of being the only girl in East Texas who is president of two major organizations. Con- tinuing her ability as a leader, she is a member of the Student- Faculty Assembly Committee and has headed the dormitory council the past two years. A striking blonde, Elsie is a stu- dent assistant at the dormitory. E. T. SELLERS Possibly Student Council President E. T. Sellers has done more than can be mentioned, but most outstanding among the facts concerning him is that he probably knows more students by their first name than anyone else on the campus. He is a student assistant librarian, Abbott of the Friar club, and was first president of Friends of the Library and Most Popular Boy for 1936. Studying to become a dentist, Sellers pulls golf tees out of the ground during his leisure hours. Page 129 lt El A 1 l fi 3 l: N i 1 I 5 I v 1 l.

I ONFORMING to the usual custom of nominations in assembly, all candidates for honor pages, excepting the who's who section in the annual, were suggested by fellow students who cast ballots ranking the forty-eight nominees for the five different posts of recognition in assembly Thursday, November 12, 1936. ' From the seven nominees for most popular girl, the six for queen of May and the eleven for most popular boy, Joy Edgar and jo Lee Tittle, Elizabeth Salmon and Marguerite Billingsley, and Sam Montgomery and Woodrow Keahey obtained the highest number of points as counted from ranking vote of the assembly ballot in each of the races in order named. On Wednesday following a secret ballot, elec- tion was held in the Locust office to make the final choice between the two can- didates for each honor post. Victorious in the final count by only slight margins, Edgar won the title of Most Popular Girl, Salmon, Queen of May, and Montgomery, Most Popular Boy. In the unusually crowded race for beauty recognition, eighteen of the thirty nominees were selected by student vote' in assembly. On the Tuesday following, these eighteen candidates were presented to the students at an amateur program in the auditorium of the Education building at which time three judges, each from a different vocation, ranked the eighteen in order of beauty. These ratings averaged with student ranking narrowed the field down to twelve contestantsg namely, Mar- guerite Billingsley, Mary Lee Bull, Madge Chapman, Jean Edge, janabel Hart, WilleneHendrix,Sarah Horton, Elizabeth Landress,Almena Perry,Anna Lee Rainey, Elizabeth Salmon, and Helon Tabb. Both full-length and bust photographs were made of the twelve, and these pictures served as a basis for the final ratings. Again three judges-one from the stage, Margery Maxwell, famed international soprano, one from professional life, and one from the laboring class, made selections which were averaged with previous ratings for the final selection of the six beauties. For the selection of prominent students on the campus for places of recogni- tion in the who's who section, dedicated primarily to the outstanding personalities, each faculty member was given a ballot upon which to place thirty names of such students he deemed worthy of such an honor. To the first hundred students so nominated went a ballot. Upon final tabulation of the some two hundred ballots. the eighteen receiving the highest number of votes won the honor and recognition of belonging to the Who's Who of 1937. The faculty favorite was selected by student vote in assembly at the time as were the other favorites. S udent .Tulificatianfa . .

N CONSTANCY to purpose lies the secret of success-and one purpose, that of depicting 1937 at East Texas State, has clearly been the objective toward achievement of which the staff has extended its efforts. Still in the bounds of this major objective, a new and different Locust has been the intentions of the editors. Arrange- ment in the book has been changed with abolition of subdivisions and creation of a few additional divisions throughout the book, the reflection of 1937 personalities even on the opening and division pages has been accomplished to some degree, the views BILLY Smva of our campus have been reproduced in color, interest in photo- Edim' graphic beauty has been played upon considerably, copy has been increased in volume with added personal and informal touches without making radical changes in layouts, the usual white space appearing in annuals diminished greatly, the serious portions of the book have been somewhat freshened by in- formality in pictures and copy with touches of humor added, no art work other than the borders of printers' rules has been used, and complete coverage of all campus activities and personalities has been the aim of the staff. Within the staff lies the success of any yearbook, and other than compiling and coordinating the great mass of copy, giving the staff a definite conception of his ideas, plans and intentions and his absolute thoroughness in doing such makes the editor and his publication outstanding, mediocre or a failure. Thus, the 1937 staff, some working more than others because of more time and enthusiasm as well as interest and ability, produced the copy for the book, and' since that only the two major executive offices are positions with salary, they have worked to gain experi- ence, because of interest in the journalistic field, or for the addition of another activity to their credit. Nevertheless each staff member has played a necessary part in building this book and in trying to record the events and achievements of 1937, the scenes and personalities of 1937, and the thoughts and reflections of 1937 in such a manner that The 1937 Locust will be a living image of the year, the days, the hours, and the moments of 1937. Below: An office scene. Probably the only time during the year that the entire staff was together working 2.--ef I ,Ju ,- The 1937 Locust THER than the editorial side is the business problem of the Annual. The 1937 Locust has operated within a planned budget of somewhat over 356,000. Of this amount, one-third was expended for engravings, half for printing, slightly less than a tenth for photography, andpapproximately the same for salaries and Office expenditures. Incomes balancing these expenditures consisted of sale Of advertising, books and organization pages and payment Of student activity fees. Other than the collec- tion of incomes and payment of accounts, the business stai'T's duties were composing advertising copy, checking student activity fees, distributing the books, and attending to all Other business matters arising during the year. The Locust is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association and the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association, and in connection with the Press Club and the East Texan was host to the 1937 convention of the latter association.

Beginning as a small chronicle of campus happenings printed with-a hand-press, it has expanded to an eight-column, four-page weekly newspaper that ranks among the best of college newspapers in the state, both in size and journalistic ALVIN RIX excellence. EMO' Although it is edited and managed by students, a faculty advisory committee determines the extremes of its editorial policy which during this year was rather quiet and wasted no space on useless Crusades as compared to former years. A change from ragged-edge heads to balanced heads has been the only outstanding change in make-up from that of last year. In the summer of 1935 the masthead was changed from an old English type to a larger, modernistic head. Outstanding among its columns other than the weekly news are This W'eek, devoting its lines to activities and personalities with a slight commentary description, Dear Suzy, a letter to Sis each week commenting upon events, situations, groups and individuals, Wrambling with Willie and Lion Logic, recording the sports week by week: and Quote and Unquote, reviewing what the other papers say or have said. It has been the aim of the editors to give the students a complete coverage of campus news, an editorial policy concerning the campus that was not too radical, columns which were interest- ing and humorous, and news of interest from other colleges. The East Texan is a member of the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association, Associated Collegiate Press, Columbia Scholastic Press, and is represented for national advertising by National Advertising Service, Inc. Below: An office scene. If this number of staff members would come around just once a week, the East Texans would never be late. ' a , 1 -: Y 'f . . l ,:,a. . tn a4,,, l The East Texan ROM a business standpoint, the East Texan involves much additional travail, selling advertising space to local merchants, billing them, collecting and caring for national advertising. Collegiate Digest. is inserted each week except when it omits issuance preceding and following holidays. Orders for national advertising have to be filed, checked, and accounted for. Each week the litexan mails approximately 300 papers to subscribers and other newspapers of colleges in Texas aIId neighboring states. For the Hrst time, the Texan received on exchange daily college papers a1Id had the most complete ex- change list in its history. VVith the addition of a new course in journalism aIId a special professor, the staff strove towards Hprofessionalizingn the paper, and with an effective headline schedule, new ideas Of make-up, improved copy-reading, and more organized re- porting, the paper should improve at a faster rate in the next tags' 'O III' v 1 .

This spring the Press Club was host to a three-day convention of the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association. East Texas became a member of this fifteen-school organization in 1935. The Press Club has made an attempt during the past year to make plans for a campus magazine, and it is probable that its efforts will result in the publication of a magazine on this campus next fall. Keys were presented to outstanding members of the East Texan and Locust staffs by the Press Club at the annual banquet of the organization. CLUB ROLL Marcus Anderson, G. H.

Included in its activities are the forming of the pep squad at intercollegiate football and basket ball games, conducting pep rallies and bonfires preceding the games, and participation in various other projects during the year such as printing of stickers advertising the college, sponsoring an all-college dance, pro- viding the stunts and entertainment between halves at athletic contests, and decorating the goal posts preceding important encounters. Leading the Eastecs are the four selected yell leaders, Bobby Lockhart, Wendell Jordan, Jo Lee Tittle, and Mary Dot Young-the valiant four who keep things going at the game with a song, a yell or maybe just keeping time with the band. At the pep rallies, at the bonfires, at the games-they are always there ready to cheer old East Texas State on to another victory. Development of unusually good teams in athletics has increased school spirit to a great extent, but a great deal of credit for this increase should go to the valiant four. JO Lee completes her second year, and Bobby completes his term too as senior leader since that he replaced Burgher Vestal, who was a senior yell leader, last fall. Mary Dot and Wendell will join forces with another pair to be selected next fall as their understudies-and the valiant four will again carry on. ,- V.. BOBBY LOCKHART JO LEE TITTLE .

This club is under the sponsorship of Professor Brent C. Tarter of the government department and in cooperation with Professor Claude V. Hall, head of the department. The purpose of the club is to bring about better understanding of questions and problems that confront our government at the present time. The members and the sponsors aim to accomplish these ends by formal and informal discussion of such problems. They also propose to bring before the organization speakers well informed upon such questions. All students and faculty members and the general public are welcome and are invited to attend the regular meetings of the Political Science Club. OFFICERS ALLEN J. H.ARGIS .... .

Xvorking together for the first time the two developed a powerful football team that was only defeated twice during the season and a de- fensive line that set a new record for yardage gained through its forward wall-making it a loss in some games. In basket ball after a late start the team almost made the top of the Lone Star ladder before the cage race ended, while last year's track edition was only successful.

Alexander, Demonstration School coach: and Gertrude VVarmack, W. A. A. Under the direction of these coaches, the freshmen have always gained more wins than losses in all departments, the tennis squad has finished only once in the conference cellar-that being last spring, the Demonstration School Cubs have gone through three .undefeated- untied seasons-this year being the first in the last four for them to suffer defeat, and the VV. A. A. has increased its activities perhaps threefold. Review of the Year TENNIS, 1936 ANDICAPPED by an unusual weakness in doubles, the 1936 tennis team won only three of its eleven matches played during the season, defeating Stephen F. Austin once and North Texas Agricul- tural College twice, and in they conference meet at Nacogdoches, Coach D. C. Butler's squad landed in the cellar for the first time since Dr. Butler first organized a net squad back during the TIAA era. Both the Lions and West Texas State went scoreless in the tourney. .w K aa ai ,I 6 ll Q if . li , sl n iv W. H.

At the conference tourney the mile relay team set a new conference record. A . FOOTBALL, 1936 L I - Winning eight of ten games after reaching its peak early in the season, the 1936 football machine working under the Bob Berry-Dennis Vinzant coaching combination, was the last undefeated-untied .college eleven in Texas to be eliminated from that ranking. A heartbreaking loss to North Texas constituted thenonly conference defeat., but this placed the Lions second in the Lone Star ladder. Mississippi State Teachers handed the Blue and Cold their only other loss in the last game of the season after the Lions had traveled five hundredrliiles for their first big intersectional game. . BASKET BALL, 1937 VVith top performances not attained until late in the season, the Etex basket ball squad under Dennis Viniant started slowly and zoomed almost to a conference championship, finally landing in the runner-up position of the Lone Star cage race. The Blue and Gold won thirteen of their twenty-two games, triumphing in five of eight con- ference games, two of five intersectional affairs, four of five encounters with strong independent teams, and two of four tilts with non-conference Texas collegiate quintets.

From a squad that averaged 182 pounds, a backfield was assembled that averaged 175 and a line that tipped the beams at an average of 190. Running a string-of consecutive wins to seven Ccounting the last game of '35J, the Lions were the last unbeaten, untied senior college eleven in Texas to fall from the ranks of the perfect. Featured on the Lion schedule, the toughest attempted to date, were two intersectional tilts with Louisiana Normal and Mississippi Teachers. The 1936 Lions featured a dangerous running attack and effective passing that in ten games averaged 256 yards gain per game, netting more than a mile and one-half in total ground gained. The defense kept the opposition to an average of 88.5 yards earned each game. - Twelve Lions were listed on the sports writers' all-conference squad, five each on the first and second teams, and two given honorable mention. Those on the first team were Woodrow Keahey Csecond consecutive yearj, Cecil Pirkey, Gene Hodge, Kenneth Morphew, and Sam Montgomery. Hodge was the only sophomore making the first eleven. Keahey was the first Lion ever to win all-loop honors two successive years. In spite of an injury in the sixth game, Johnny Garrison, sophomore back from Eastland, flashed so brilliantly in the first half of the Lions' games that he was mentioned on the Associated Press' Little All-American, the first time any such nation-wide recognition had been given a Lion. 4 sz' -Zvi: 27. .-- .

Austin had the ball midways on their end of the field, they punted, and johnny Garrison dashed and twisted to return the ball 23 yards to the Kangaroo 37-yard line. On the first down, Bill Defee faded back to the mid-stripe and tossed a slippery, wet ball to Garrison who had slipped past the enemy secondary and was only a few strides away from the goal-line and the only score of the game. A Opening the season for both clubs, the engagement was played at Sherman's Fair Park field. Only when the home-towners blocked Sam Montgomery's punt on the Etex 26-yard line did they threaten the Lion goal all evening. Besides Garrison's circus catch midway in the second quarter, the Blue and Gold had two drives stopped short of their destination during the tirst half and three the last half. LIONS 19, ST. EDWARD'S TIGERS 6. Demonstrating unfathomable defensive power, Coach Dennis Vinzant's line held the St. Ed's Tigers to a minus nine for yards gained from scrimmage while Coach Bob Berry's offense scampered to a 19-6 victory as the Lions made their first home appearance. Tiger Coach Bill Pierce sat through an alternate drizzle and downpour to watch a lad he had two years before marked N.

End Darrell Tully kicked goal. Early in the second half, when Montgom- ery, deep in Etex territory, punted out, Dan Seitz took the low spiral and dashed down the west sideline for the Saints' only score. The Lions then soon after took over the ball on the Tigers' 3-yard stripe. There the hero of the night spun over the goal to increase the Lion lead. Two plays later the locals started the ball goalward again, and after a fumble and recovery inside the one-yard line, Montgomery drove over for the nine- teenth point. LIONS 18, STEPHEN F. AUSTIN LUMBERJACKS 0. Starting a live-game streak in which they held opposition scoreless, the Lions opened the Lone Star Conference race by walloping one of the other joint champions of the '35 Campaign, the Stephen Austin Lumberjacks, 18-0.

'blanking the Kats, the Lions accomplished a feat that Texas A. and M. and Rice failed to do, and accumu- lated nearly the same score the Southwest conference teams did. Garrison and Montgomery accounted for most of the Lions' 20 first downs and 424 net yardage gained, the greatest total of the year. In the early minutes Of the game, Tully tucked in a 16-yard pass from Joe Taylor and galloped 42 yards to start the locals on their way. Kicking from a position a yard farther back than usual, Tully converted two of the night's extra points and McDowell another to improve the Etex extra-point record. Culminating a 53-yard drive, Garrison weaved through the Sam Houston secondary for the next touchdown on a 14-yard cutback around end, just as the first quarter ended. Immediately at the beginning of the second half, the Blue and Gold took the kick-off and in seven plays had countered as Garrison sprinted the 11 final yards. Joe Taylor ran 45 yards for a score after intercepting a pass, but the play was called back because of one of the many numerous penalties. On the last play of the game, L. T. Felty, substitute end, intercepted an enemy toss and dashed 65 yards for the final score. LIONS 7, TRINITY TIGERS 0. Again away from home and again playing on a near-quagmire, Trinity's Y oakum Field this time, Ken Morphew blocked Meharg's second punt of the afternoon and, in three tries, Garrison slid across the Tiger goal eight yards away to account for the Lions' fifth successive win. After this marker, the Lions played only listless ball in chilling rain, but it was more than enough to hold Trinity in check. Late in the second quarter, Defee unreeled a 23-yard dash and Garrison followed with a 20-yard cutback over the goal, but the score was nullified because of a penalty. Coles recovered a Tiger fumble on the latter's 10-yard line near the end of the game, but the Lions took no advantage of it. Following the punt out, the Blue and Gold did inaugurate a 30-yard march that died on the three- yard stripe. L. T. FELTY Emi Joe TAYLOR Quarter Ciscn.

Taylor intercepted the Demons' first pass and lateraled to Defee moving the ball to within five yards of the goal. After three plays, Defee lacked half a yard, which Quarterback Taylor made on the fourth down. just before the end of the quarter, Garrison received an arm injury which took him from effective service for the rest of the season. Montgomery and Morphew broke up the only two threats made by the Demons. With McDowell and Defee throwing only three passes, the Lions traveled 64 yards to count again as Defee completed a 24-yard pass to Pirkey for the score. Tully kicked goal just before the end of the game, McDowell gathered in a pass interception and put the ball in scoring position on the Demon 16. He then, after two incomplete passes, tossed to Defee, who lateraled to Moody for the touch down.

Including penalties, the Etexans outgained their opponents by some thirty yards and out-first-downed them, twelve to eight. LIONS 14, SOUTHWEST TEXAS BOB- CATS 13. Wlith a story-book hnish in some measure compensating for the horrible loss of the week before, the Lions nosed out Southwest Texas, 14-13, on the latter's Evans held.

A few moments later, the Cats completed the other two of the three passes they made good during the night and scored to again take the lead. A bad pass from center ruined the chance to kick goal. VVi1h but three minutes to play and the game seemingly lost, Keahey blocked an en- emy punt and Hodge recovered it on the Cat 34,-yard line. A pass, Defee to Pirkey, and yardage gained by McDowell and Mont- gomery, who made the touchdown, enabled the Lions to tie the score. Tully's place kick was out of line with the goal posts until de- flected by a Bobcat lineman's arm to send the ball between the uprights and give the Lions second-place honors in the conference. In plays at scrimmage, the Bobcats lost three more yards than they gained, the second time the Lion defense accomplished a like feat this year. LIONS 27, TEXAS WESLEYAN RAMS 0.

Traveling 500 miles to Hattiesburg, Mississippi, for their first Thanksgiving day game in several years and Q their longest intersectional jaunt, a four-day trip, the Lions closed their season by having all the breaks go against them for the second time during the season and lost a 13-6 decision to Mississippi Teachers. The Yellow jackets scored early in the first quarter on a 77-yard end run that materialized from a fake kick. Defee then unreeled a 25-yard pass to Pirkey who ambled 19 yards to the jacket goal for the Lions' only v marker of the day. Pirkey partially blocked a Mississippi kick that enabled another Lion drive to reach the 12-yard stripe before . wild passes destroyed it. Montgomery seemingly scored when he took a 24-yard pass from Taylor, but officials ruled he barely touched the side-line in his dash. The Etexans reached the 4-yard line in that attempt. Tired by the long trip, the Lions played listlessly during the second half and allowed the Teachers to complete , a 24-yard pass that set the stage for a tricky, end-around touchdown play that proved to be the margin of victory. However, the Etexans netted 120 yards and six first downs more than did their opponents. l LLOYD Kisnuow Half ' HERBERT P1011 Tackle vi - C' V IVIORRIS Gnocls Fullback Page 188 IN WAR ZONE 7 Tnx..

Pluck carried the frosh through several encounters when the dope bucket was against them. They were handicapped by their weight but managed to overcome the opposition's advantage and end the season on top of the heap. Meeting Denton in the season opener, the Lion frosh held the North Texas freshman gridders to seven points, meanwhile pushing over the same amount of counters for themselves. Against a much heftier squad, the freshmen prepared the way for the grudge battle between the varsity teams of the two schools. Going to Nacogdoches, the first-year men came back with the only loss of the season, 6-0- On the home field the lighting fish stopped the Sam Houston freshmen to chalk up the first win of the year, 7-0. Allowed only four games under Lone Star Conference rules, the freshmen closed the season with a spectacular 12-7 victory over Hillsboro Junior College when Millard Massey dashed a hundred and live yards for a touchdown. The junior college team had been leading, 7-6, and with only two minutes of play remaining, a pass interception paved the way for victory.

S7 Lions tried technique opposite from that exhib- ited in football, as far as if winning streaks were con- cerned, starting with aver- age performances and end- ing with the best team in the conference.

KEA1-mv, CONNER, V1NsoN, MANAGIQR Ci-nanny Of the twenty-two games played, the squad won thirteen and lost nine, a third of the defeats, however, resulting from one- and two-point margins. Five of eight conference games, two of five intersectional affairs, four of live encounters with strong independent teams, and two of four tilts with non-conference Texas collegiate quintets were the games in each division which the Lions marked up in the win column. With seven of the nine lettermen returning from the co-champions of the year before, at first glance it seemed that Coach Dennis Vinzant would have a simple job of repeating such a performance, but difficulties soon changed that. Every other club in the loop increased in relative strength twofold or more. Sophomores Gene Hodge and J. P. Vinson played considerable time on the first string, greatly increasing the Blue and Gold power, but this merely illustrates the increased power of the circuit. Another big factor was the slowness of D. L. QRedj Conner, all-con- ference six-foot, live and one-half-inch center, to reach top performance again after a siege of boils. Coach Vinzant offset the latter weakness somewhat by developing a fast-breaking attack to bolster the offense. This, however, failed to function at its utmost efficiency until late in the season, but then became a valuable counter- attack when opponents guarded the sorrel-topped pivoteer extremely close. Eighteen composed the squad until the Christmas holidays, when festive occasions tempted some seven or so to gradually discontinue practice. Of the eleven staying throughout the season, nine lettered. Added color was given to the squad as live cagers, Forwards Henry Walters and Glenn fRedj Adams, Center Conner, Guards Co-captain Woodrow Keahey Afffomfhelfffnbefiackgm and J. T.

The group as juniors were under the direction of the late S. j. CRedj' Petty. In their conference-limited pre-holiday games, the Blue and Gold won only one of their four showings, all of which were with out-of-state opponents. Opening with East Central Oklahoma Teachers at Ada, Okla., the Vinzantmen were nosed out by one point in a rather unpolished 27-26 defeat. Conner and Co-captain Merrell McKee paced the Lions with six points each. Going to Natchitoches, La., for their alternate-year series at Louisiana Normal, the Lions won their first game, 42-37, with Conner leading the scoring that night and again the next evening when the Lions failed to overcome a large lead and lost, 36-34. Then, playing their Hrst big midwestern university, the Texans opened their home season just after returning from the Louisiana trip, performing listlessly to lose to Drake University, 38-29. Vinson led the scoring for the vanquished with nine points. After the Christmas holidays, the squad returned, and on three consecutive nights trounced three tough amateur teams. The first game, with Dallas Railway and Terminal, whose line-up included Olan Clifton and Lynn- wood Farr, two former Lions, ended with a score of 44-27 in favor of the locals, playing in Whitley gymnasium for the second time of the season. Next was Dr. Pepper, with the former Etexan, Lloyd Bow, and again the col- legians led, this time with a 38-31 score. The next night, the Lions played in joinerville, meeting the Hunt Oilers, who boasted of Oliver Stringer, former Etex captain in the TIAA days, and won, 26-23. . V' ht ',tS.M.U. Conner led the scoring on all three occa- mums oosagaws sions. I Returning to college competition, the Lions took on the Southern Methodist Mus- tangs, who marched on later to their first Southwest Conference championship. Al- though Conner was in a weakened physical condition, the Dallasites won only 23-18, Page 191 , ,.

In nine games with Southwest conference competition, the Lone Star clubs won five, and Stephen F. Austin was refused games with the members of the senior circuit. The barnstorming quintet from VVest Texas State, self-labeled as the tallest basket-ball team in the world, dropped in VVhitley Gymnasium next to split a two-game series. The Lions won the first, 35-31, but the next night could score no more and the Buffs won, 39-35. VVith Conner out of the line-up because of illness, McKee led scoring the first night and Hodge took up the pace the next. Playing their last warm-up game, the Blue and Gold smothered Texas Wesleyan's Rams, 55-17, as Coach Vinzant's fast-breaking attack first gave an insight on what it was capable of accomplishing. McKee made numerous crip shots to lead scoring with 20 counters. Four of the five preceding year's first stringers returned at Stephen F. Austin, Sam Houston's cellar team was visibly Ceven to early season sports predictorsj powerhoused by the addition of junior college performers, North Texas had virtually the same team that had fought the Lions to overtime games, and completing the conference picture, Southwest Texas, although considered weak, had four brilliant defense veterans and several promising sophomores. Opening the conference season at Denton, the Lions outrushed the Eagles the last half and came from behind to win, 34-29, sinking five more free shots than did the Green and White. McKee continued his offensive pace to take scoring honors with thirteen points. The victory over the Eagles put the Lions at the top of the loop standing, but a week later, after traveling to ' Huntsville over icy roads, Sam Houston Lions dqfeal Denton toppled the Lions with a 36-27 defeat as Mc- Kee again held up the offense with eleven points. The Lions nearly tied the count at one time, early in the second half, but the renovated Bearkats gradually pulled away. Playing a benefit game in Southern Methodist fieldliouse, during the first semes- ter interim, the Vinzantmen lost their second contest with Dr. Pepper, 38-28. The affair Page 192 K . J. P.

McKee and Russell led scoring as the Lions tied the score, 18-18, mid-ways in the game, but the L bottlers gradually pulled away. ' Dropping the crucial Stephen F. Austin game here in VVhitley Gymnasium, the Lions chances for a repeat --if performance of the 1936 campaign faded with a heart-breaking 32-31 defeat. The game approached almost fiction with the jacks ringing up nearly two points every time they shot while the Lions' efforts usually rolled around the rim and dropped off. Tied six times, the Lumberjacks took the lead, but the Lions were on top in the second half and held it until that period was about two-thirds gone. For the remaining time, the lead shifted quickly and eccentrically, but the pistol shot at the wrong time and the jacks were ahead by one point. It was a night for cap, tains as Moss Crenshaw, Purple leader, scored hfteen points, eleven of his team's eighteen in the second half. Co- I ,I A A captain Meliee again took Etex honors, this time with ten. After this bare loss, the Lions played the rest of the season's games according to the way pre-season dope said ll they would play the whole schedule, winning six of the last seven contests. X' 1 ,' 1 ,L '-,lj F Conner returned to the position of offensive leader as the East Texans swept both games with Southwest Texas, winning the first one at San Marcos by a 39-25 margin, and then taking the encounter here by a 38-32 score. In I , . between these two conference games, the locals took on Carlos Messina's Sammy's quintet, and Conner, with six- '-,pil 'fi teen Points, paced the Lions to a 40-34 win. 3 5 Playing in the Aikman Gymnasium at Nacogdoches, where no team but the Lumberjacks have won since the i 'Nii', days of prohibition, the Lions could only expect to lose, and they did, 33-27, but during the last minutes of each half, p , .i , the Blue and Cold began scoring streaks in niuv which they showed some of the best ball of the pV,,1,'e,S ,,,ake,, ,, free ,me agaimf Dyake i i i 'vA., year. The strategy of the tilt, like the game L L -5 , ' viii itself, was intensely interesting, it merely A L 1, being to try to out-rough the jacks before the I 5 former were battered to a soft pulp. L ,,k' After this game, however, the jungle Beasts ended the season at home in comfort- able style, trouncing the 1937 co-champions, Sam Houston, 57-353 East Central Oklahoma, ' 70-22, and the rival North Texans, 33-27. - Page 193 'vi iitin f gi gg l 5 fi 7 ' 4 r 1 2 ill 1.-,Lea 1 .Q s g r fe at W llli H' My Q, J.

Although the Kats played well here, the Lions' highly-developed fast break was more than enough to subdue them. Conner scored twenty points, McKee nineteen. Against East Central, the Lions set a scoring record for W'hitley Gymnasium that will likely stay for some years to come as McKee and Conner led the attack with fourteen points each. With the game only three-fourths over, Etex led, 55-11, but the Tigers slipped in some extra points as a cold crew of Lions substituted at the time. As eight men performed for the last time under collegiate colors in the North Texas game, four of whom were captains or had been captains, the Blue and Gold triumphed readily in spite of the tense game. Conner with fifteen points, closely followed by Hodge with thirteen, ended his notable career in suitable fashion. ' Although the team didn't enter the Southwestern AAU, most of the players did. Conner played wiht Dr. Pepper who beat Sam Houston but were eliminated by the Southwest Conference champs, SMU, playing under the Hamilton Motor colors. Sammy's, a team that East Texas had beaten, was tournament finalists and Russell, playing forward for them, won that position on the all-tournament team. Adams played guard for Sammy's and tied for his tea1n's scoring honors in the final game. Conner was unanimously selected on the all-conference team, which was dominated by the Lumberjacks of relative equal rank. McKee was listed as third best forward and Russell and Cecil Pirkey were given honorable mention. Conner led team scoring for the year with 215 points, followed by McKee with 177. In conference scoring, Conner topped all other individuals in the loop, with 93 points, as his chief competitor, Clifford Dotson of Sam Houston, lost his winning points when the Bobcat game was forfeited, permitting the M CK ee lakes a pass in lhe Lumberjczck game Kats to tie for the lead. The five seniors, who finished their fourth year of basket ball at East Texas, lettered, as did McKee and Pirkey, who were appointed co-captains, and Hodge and Vinson. Al- though only these last-mentioned four return next year, a rather strong freshman contingent is expected to evolve a squad that will finish with a record at least as good as the '37 team.

Coach Glen CBrushj Maloney's cagemen swept their series with the North Texas frosh, split with Stephen F. Austin and Kilgore junior College, won two out of three games with Paris junior College, and took single wins from Sam Houston and the regional schoolboy champs, Gober High School, who were finalists in the state meet. The B squad won all of its seven games with neighboring high school teams. Woodrow CPiej Vanderslice, cage artist from Alba, led scoring with 122 points in the first nine games, while Robert Carpenter, Branom pivoteer, came second with 74 points in eight encounters. Evidence of valuable varsity' material is found in many of the first-year men. With the graduation of D. L. fRedj Conner from the center position, Carpenter will be a strong contender for that position, Vanderslice along with Thomas Eads, R. L. Fite, Woodrow Renwick, johnny Honey, Jack Vanderslice, Robert Ferguson, and Rex Newsome all showed promise of strengthen- ing the varsity cage squad next year.

HE 1936 track season goes down as a successful one, as the team won their only triangular meet against Stephen F. Austin and Sam Houston and split even in the dual meets, losing to San Marcos and defeating Denton for the second consecutive year, and the conference meet turned out as expected, with the Lions riding in with third place following the mighty Eagles and Bobcats. The outstanding accomplishment of the team during the year was the recognition the relay quartets gained with a win in the half-mile relay at the Texas Relays as well as the string of victories at the conference meet.

With ten lettermen back from last season, prospects were not unusually dark, although ,the team was facing the stiffest schedule East Texas had ever attempted. With R. E. johnson, Louis VValler, and Bill Defee back in the weights and Vic Lewis, Charles Watson, and Red Adams back in the jumps, the prospects looked bright in the field events. However, with only three lettermen, Lloyd Kerbow, james Nelson, and Captain Mart Hitt, returning to hold down the track events, the need for added strength here was apparent. Freshmen and junior college transfers came forward with talent in the weak events as Luther Lowery, jamx Stewart, and Lee Taylor proved outstanding in the sprints and middle distances and Cecil Pirkey and Red CWullyj Welborn came down from Bowie County to aid in the hurdles and weights.

U In the first meet held in this section of the country, the International Border Olympics, on March 2, the Lions showed little by winning only third in the half-mile relay, but, however, took off more than their share of the points in the pole vault, with Vic Lewis winning second and Charles Watson tying for third. With a total of six and one-half points, the Lions won sixth in the University Division. The Fort Worth Exposition meet failed to prove anything other than that the Lions had a well-balanced team with no one man particularly outstanding. Nine points were made by virtue of Bill Defee's second in the discus, Charles VVatson's third in the pole vault, Red VVelborn's third in the high jump, and two fourth places made by the mile relay team and Luther Lowery in the 220-yard dash. The East Texas relay teams journeyed to Austin for the Texas Relays, on March 28, and defeated all pre-meet favorites in the half-mile relay. This feat accomplished by Stewart, Nelson, Lowery and Kerbow, is listed as one of the outstanding triumphs of the track season of 1936. In their first dual meet against San Marcos at the Bobcats' field, the Lions lost by the score of 82-53, the better- balanced San Marcos team being the determining factor. Displaying most of their strength in the field depart- ments, the Lions made 38 of their 53 points with clean sweeps in the discus, javelin and broad jump, and a tie for first in the pole vault. In the running events, the East Texans failed to win a single first place. In the only meet of the season on the local track, the Blue and Gold scored a one-sided victory over Stephen F. Austin and Sam Houston in a triangular affair. Scoring 95 points to the Lumberjacks' 53 and the Bearkats' 23, the Etexans picked up nine first places to completely rule the day. First places were made by the Lions in the 220-yard dash, the quarter, sprint relay, mile relay, shot put, discus, javelin, high jump and pole vault. Bill Defee led local point-getters with 12 points. For the second consecutive year, the East Texas track team defeated the North Texas team in a dual meet. Although not at their full strength, the Eagles on their own field, gave the Lions quite a tussle. The North Texans carried away nine of the fifteen first places, but the East Texas superior strength in the field events decided the meet by a 79-57 count. james Stewart was high-point man for the Lions, with ten and a half points. The East Texas sprint relay team broke the conference record with the time of 43.1. Faltering in the field department for the first time during the year and showing additional strength in the track events, the Lions placed third in the conference meet with 31 points. North Texas won first with the convinc- ing score of 83 markers, as compared to Southwest Texas' 53. Weakening in this last meet, the Blue and Gold only scored 15 points in their favorite point-getting events, the field affairs. Vic Lewis finished his track career chalking up the only win in the field events of the meet for the Lions by tying for first place in the pole vault. The East Texas mile relay team composed of Stewart, Hitt, Kerbow and Lowery broke the conference mile relay record with a time of 3 :36.8. Victories were also marked up in the other two relays, the sprint, and the field relays. , The fifteen lettermen for the 1936 season were Charles Watson, Cecil Pirkey, Vic Lewis, Captain Mart Hitt, Lloyd Kerbow, Louis Waller, Bill Defee, Herman Wfelborn, Merrell McKee, R. E. johnson, Luther Lowery, James Stewart, james Nelson, and Lee Taylor. Of this group, Captain Hitt, Nelson, Lewis, Waller and johnson com- peted for the last time wearing the Lions' blue and gold. VVith Lloyd Kerbow, dash and relay man, leading the 1937 squad, and a large number of lettermen returning, the prospects for the 1937 team are excellent and even more so with the addition of several outstanding freshman athletes.

The climax came May 16 as they chalked up SSM points to outstrip all competitors in the freshman ' 1 ll conference meet at Denton. l M At their opening cinder-path performance, the Fat Stock show, the frosh team doubled the varsity's points . W and picked up 18 points in five events, winning three firsts and setting one record. Part of the squad then competed in the Texas Relays, but failed to place. Two weeks later, the yearlings got into the groove and swamped Southwest Texas fish 92 ZX 3 to 32 1f3. .Hodge led in- dividual scoring with 21 1f3 points, winning four first places.

While the varsity was host in a triangular meet, the fish outscored North Texas frosh 63 1X6 to 40 1X6 to win a quad- rangular affair. North Texas Aggies followed with 27 1X6 and Stephen F. 1' Austin fish with ZIM. At the conference meet, the East Texans set ten new records to take away the meet with 835 points.

Lf 1936 TENNIS SQUAD Left to right: ANDERSON, DURHAM, HAYES, GARRETT, PRIM, CAPTAIN LOCKHART, DAY, EDGAR, FULLER, COACH BUTLER Tennis, 1936 . . . NUSUAL weakness in doubles was the 1936 tennis team's chief weakness, for handicapped by lack of sufficient courts, Dr. D. C. Butler is always forced to concentrate on doubles to give the squad adequate practice. Although four lettermen, jake Anderson, Co-captain Ellis Lock- hart, Co-captain Bill Puryear, and Weldon Durham, composed the nucleus of the squad, no two could form the winning doubles team such as the one in 1933 that led the Lions to their first conference championship. Near the end of the season, after Puryear finished teaching and returned to join the squad, fairly dependable teams which won half of their matches were formed with the pairing together of Lockhart and Durham and Puryear and Robert Hayes. Anderson, who captained the squad in his junior year, and Hayes, who was selected for 1937 captain, were the only players to win at least half of their singles matches during the season. Of the eleven matches played, three were won, one from Stephen F. Austin and two from North Texas Agricultural College. Three losses were to Southwest conference teams, two each to Trinity and North Texas and one to Sam Houston. Page 200 ' if L '-FL.

G. MURRAY JAMES EDGAR ROBERT HAYES At the conference tournament at Nacogdoches, East Texas landed in the cellar for the first time since Dr. Butler first organized a net squad back during the TIAA era. Southwest Texas with 30 points took the championship. North Texas with 21, and Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin with 6 each were the only other teams winning points, the Lions and West Texas, who were competing in the Lone Star tourney for the first time, both going scoreless and tying for the fifth ranking position. First the squad tackled Dr. D. A. Penick's Longhorn netters at Austin and were blanked 6-0 as the year before but took on the A team this year instead of the B group. The Texans let the Lions have but seven games during all six matches, 6-2 being the best set score made by the Etex team. - A week later at Dallas, Durham won number three singles, 0-6, 6-1, 6-1, as Southern Method- ist took a 5-1 score. Two other matches were barely lost after long deuce set struggles, Anderson being overcome 10-8 in the second set and Lockhart and Emmett Day 13-11 likewise. Weakened by the loss of Anderson and Lockhart who,ofliciated in the conflicting county meet on the campus, the Lions could do no better than a 5-1 loss to Texas Christian at Fort VVorth. Hayes won the only local points in number four singles. He and Day in doubles and Durham in singles carried other matches to three sets before losing, r l I Page 201 - H.

Against Sam Houston in Huntsville, Anderson took second singles and Lock- hart and Day came from behind to win second doubles, but Durham and Anderson lost a three- set match in first doubles. Then playing at home for the first time, the locals were nosed out by the powerful Trinity netters with another 4-2 decision. Lockhart won his number four singles and paired with Day to complete an iron-man stunt and triumph in second doubles. Anderson and Durham again just lost the first doubles in three long sets. When North Texas played here, the Etexans were decidedly off, getting a 6-0 score chalked up against them. Lockhart and Durham, playing number two doubles, won the only set for the Lions. After being nosed out 13-11 in the first set, Day soon dropped the only singles match in which the locals appeared on equal footing. The next day at Arlington, the Lions lost only one match, first singles, to get their first victory of the year, 5-1. Lockhart, Day and Hayes won the three singles matches and Lock- hart and Durham swept through first doubles as did Day and Hayes in number two doubles. journeying to Waxahachie, the Lions lost another 6-0 decision to Trinity, salvaging not even a single set. Two days later, the Blue and Gold, playing in Nacogdoches, vanquished Stephen F. Austin, winning four of seven matches. Lockhart and Kenneth Prim won number two and five singles, respectively, and Lockhart and Durham and Hayes and Puryear, in that order, came out on top in the two doubles events. Five of the seven matches, and every one the Lions won, went to three sets. , The next week at Denton, Anderson won the only match from a North Texan, preventing another clean sweep and making the score 5-1. Returning home the next day, the Butlermen ended their match-play with a love score victory of 6-0 over the North Texas Aggies. Durham, Lockhart, Anderson and Day won the four singles and Durham-Lockhart and Puryear-Hayes the doubles. In the conference tourney, only Prim was eliminated in the first round of singles, losing to the Southwest Texas captain. Lockhart downed a Stephen F. Austin opponent and Anderson a Sam Houston man, Durham drawing a bye. Only Anderson survived the second round of singles, beating West Texas' ace while Lockhart lost to semi-finalist Barns of North Texas and Durham was nosed out in a heart-breaker with a Houstonian. In the quarter-hnals,Anderson was conquered by the eventual champion, Latham of Southwest Texas, preventing East Texas from winning any points in the singles division. The Lions fared no better in the doubles bracket as Puryear and Hayes lost to the North Texas champions in the first round and Lockhart and Durham, who were byed into the quarter- finals, were eliminated there by the tourney finalists from Southwest Texas. Lettermen for the year included two three-year seniors, Anderson and Lockhart, two two- year seniors, Durham and Puryear, and three receiving their first letters.

I N JANUARY.Of this year a group of boxing and wrestling enthusiasts met in the recreation 7 room of the Boys' Dormitory for the purpose of creating some sort of organization for the promotion of these additional sports at East Texas. And thus the Etex Athletic Association began., 'i . A U I Twenty-six boys signed the roll to become charter members of the new sports organization at the first meeting, and by spring more than thirty college men had enrolled. At the first meet- ing, Tiny Thornton was elected president of the organizationg Claude Owens, vice-presidentg Loren Cato, secretary-treasurerg Willie Forehand, reporterg johnny Hammer and Maurice Martin, sergeants-at-arms, Orville Hildreath, boxing captaing and Herbert Pior, wrestling captain. U i U With the primary object of interesting East Texas students in boxing and wrestling and making it one of the major college sports as well as a unit course in physical education, the asso- ciation staged la free fight-night to encourage the interest in the sports. This first fight program was a tremendous success as far as the crowd and the reception given the fighters was concerned. A few weeks' later the 'T Association, with the support of the members of the Etex Ath- letic Association, presented another fight-night with only boxing. Inclement weather held the crowds away, but the ovation given indicated plenty of interest. Plans for the title bouts, in a Championship Fight-Night, where the winners in each division will be awarded-the crown for their weight, are now underway. Immediately after this Cham- pionship night, a challenge night will offer all persons wishing to dispute the title claims to make good their threats. After that night, no other claims to the crown will be recognized until the association begins its work next year. A A Page 204 5 and .Tlatfcwm ..

WRIGHT College Band ONTINUING to fill its niche each year in student activities, the band attends regular inter- collegiate football and basket ball contests and conference tournaments, presents several assembly programs during the year, plays for a few pep rallies and advertises the college on booster trips for Commerce. Working in the wooden shack, Director Carl A. Deonier has produced this thirty-eight- piece band, the instrumentation of which varies from time to time, but included at the time the above picture was made, ten clarinets, eight cornets and trumpets, four horns, four trombones, three saxophones, three drums, a piccolo, a French horn, a baritone, a euphonium, a bass, and a sousaphone. .. Late in 1935 the band was completely outfitted with new blue-and-gold uniforms and acquired a six foot, six and one-half-inch drum major in Robert Cox. The loss of Cox in the early fall of this year took much from the band's showmanship, which however is continually improving. From experience gained from band membership and the courses offered in band directing, students are yearly filling positions as band directors in various schools. Page 207 YI, -.

HOLLOWAY', basses, RUSSELL CARRINGTON, drums The Southern Gentlemen HOUGI-I an organization quite changeable in membership the Southern Gentlemen, an orchestral combination on the campus during the last four or five years, use their own original style of arrangement and have been able to keep their record as a first-rate band swinging out with popular dance music. A Not wanting to imitate any special style, Manager James Clark arranges all the music, and, though not exactly a director, he starts the music from the piano followed by Mayes, Holloway and Carrington keeping the tempo steady. Recently a vocalist was added to the band's attractions. By doubling on various instruments the above dispensers of rhythm numbering thirteen use practically all instruments played in modern dance orchestras. A majority of the members played together in the college band long before the organi- zation of the Gentlemen, and gradually the membership is changing with new additions as old members graduate. Often disbanding occurs but reorganization with slight changes and added quality of rhythm results. The above picture was made during a summer assembly program. Besides playing for numerous assemblies, the Gentlemen furnish the music for over half the college dances during the entire year as well as many dances in neighboring cities. 4..'.'

YOUNG, COACH ALEXANDER Sealed: FULLER, OLIVER, Buicnson, NICCRARY, FAIRES, CHANEx Training School Football TARTING training late in September, the Cubs were faced with the problem of a good starting line-up with no replacements of recognized ability. Wlith this obvious weak- ness, Coach Alexander set out to develop a lighting squad of gridders. Opening the season against the Greenville Y annigans, the Cubs emerged from a hard- fought game with a scoreless tie followed the next week bya 12-0 defeat handed them by a high-spirited Mt. Vernon eleven. The tie game was the first time in eighteen consecutive contests the Green and Wlhite had failed to win, and the latter game was the first loss suffered in nineteen starts. With Stivers, Hall and Hobbs collecting the points the Cubs won their first game over Cumby, 20-6. Reaching the seasOn's peak the Cubs displayed unexpected strength to hold of the season was filled with losses, one to Sulphur Springs, 7-6, and another to Ladonia 13-6. In the final game of the Schedule the Green and White was overwhelmingly defeated by the powerful Grand Saline eleven by a 50-7 score. Leading at the end of the first quarter 7-0, the Cubs suffered several injuries, among which was that of line-backer Stivers, paving the way for the opposition to run wild. L Lettermen for the season were Captain Edward Stivers, CO-Captain-elect James Mc- Crary, Co-Captain-elect Roy Fling, Raymond Cameron, Howard Turner, Herman Young , J. L. Reeder, Ross Johnson, Henry Grady Young, Frank Hobbs, Ford Hall, Tobin Johnson, James Faires, Herbert Chapman, and Business Manager Luther Ledbetter. i ,,.. - f l if . .J TY. l- 'll' ' filiii 1 ' iiififi ll? is M, fu , A -,7r2,f:'T, 'Aft i 1'-:EM , 'flttffi' il 'ri , ,..., .

I 'HL Alt Happens Annually . . . ITHIN traditions lies the spirit of the school. On the campus of East Texas State numerous traditions stand out as such from year to year. Perhaps the most valuable tradition to any school is that of homecoming-bring ing back the memories of former days to the alumni. Every year about the time of graduation, the annual homecoming programs are presented usually followed with a banquet in the evening honoring both the alumni and the graduating seniors. Senior week with the brilliant array of red ties and ribbons climaxes the four years of campus life for every student who graduates. During this week the colorful senior reception at the home of the President of the college, theatre parties, assembly pro- grams, picnics and other entertainments comprise the activities of the graduating class. Probably the most remarkable week is that of the Freshman class, during which the first year students take over the duties of the officers of the Student Association to rule the campus. Besides gaining some return for past work for the upperclassmen, the Fish battle the Sophomores in a tug-of-war and engage in a week of celebrations culminating usually in a dance at the end of the week. Along with Spring comes the May Fete with the Lord and Queen of May reigning over the festivities. Amid the splendor and beauty of colorful flowers and varying greens, the dances and plays of springtime are presented before the court. Presented in a carnival spirit as is the old French custom, the Mardi Gras ball comes in early Spring previous to Lent. VVith King Rex and his attendants and their chosen ladies presiding, an evening of merriment and celebration such as it is, with a floor show and dancing, provides an indispensable tradition. The Christmas Carol service held in the auditorium of the Education building has long since become an annual custom. Each year just before the Y uletide holidays begin, a carol service with the hanging of the star upon the Christmas tree makes an impressive ceremony of reverence. Elections, both general in the Spring and the class in the fall, stand out in memories of college days. Each year the student body divides into factions supporting its own candidates. VVearing friendly smiles, exchanging friendly handclasps, the candidates with speeches and electioneering build up friendly rivalries. With the rush for the polls comes defeat for some and victory for others. Truly, the spirit of the school lies within traditions. Page 218 la ' 4 ind...

Grinds are always written at the last minute-that's why they appear to have been written at the last minute. By waiting until the Jinal dead-line is hovering about, several other lesser dead-lines having been rudely pushed aside during the course of things, it is possible to accomplish many objectives in the final manuscript. First, there's the matter of campus scandal. In the hurry and bustle, or hustle and bustle for what- ever the phrase isj of things, we have completely overlooked such an item. Now everyone believes that the Locust stajf never uncovers any scandal during the year, but such an assumption is a false one. During the fall of the year we operatives simply load our pockets with choice items. These little gems are usually scratched on an old envelope with the puzzling words Joe . . . Elsie 8:30 Friday night . . . by the bridge . . . said 'politics be damned' . . . see Mazie for details. When spring arrives, and time to write the grind is near, it is discovered that the old envelope is missing. The choice item is usually sent to the cleaners with a suit, lost, or misplaced. A hurried search never reveals the old envelope. It is usually found just after the book is of the press. By that time, we can't remember the details any- way. Likely as not, lllazie left school at mid-term so we can't see her 'for details. T hat's why there is never any scandal in a grind section. One reason, anyway. Another reason is the censor- another is we don't want to get our nose punched. Come to think about it, there must be plenty of reasons. Well, you ask, what do we have in the grind? That's hard to answer. The Greeks had a word for it, but it can't be printed. So we suggest that you read the following columns of print with the feeling that you are being gyped. We guarantee you won't be surprised. If any humor at all is to be gained from this grind, you must read it alone in a comfortable chair with a soft light falling over your shoulder. But if you're going to go to all that trouble just to read something, we would suggest you delve into Gone With The Wind or a copy of Harper's. We thought you ought to know. H REPORT OF THE DANCE COMMITTEE Cas taken from the hlesj Gentlemen: It is with great pleasure that we announce that Buddy Scholtz and His Orchestra will play for our annual dance. VVe believe that our selection will bring many com- pliments to our club when Scholtz's band swings out at our traditional dance. Although Scholtz and his band are definitely on the dotted line, we feel that we should-in our fairness to the club-elaborate on the final selection. As you know the dance committee left january 18th for Dallas to contact Ozzie Roland, a gentleman who books dance orchestras. We met Roland about noon on the 18th, which was Saturday. He immediately swamped us with pamphlets and prices, but all the orchestras were out of the 35125 limit set by the club. Roland suggested that we visit The Purple Glove, a sort of rendezvous, as there was a band playing there that was tops. It turned out that the band he had in mind was The Royal Troubadours. You remember this band played for an all- college in November, and was a terrible flop. Roland was chagrined when we told him about the all-college affair, but took it all good- naturedly and promised to let us in on a big secret. The secret mentioned was this: Herbie Kay and his orchestra were going to make a road trip through Texas about the time of our annual dance and possibly, through Roland's infiuence, we could get Kay to play for our dance. Roland suggested that we stay in Dallas until Monday, on which date Kay's business manager would be in town. Roland said he would furnish us with room and meals over the week-end, so we naturally accepted his invitation. Page 220 Monday we saw Kay's manager, and the less said about that the better. Afterwards, however, Roland said that he was glad to learn that we hadn't gotten Kay. This surprised us very much, so we asked Roland what he meant. Well, he said that he had, through a remarkable series of coincidences, a dance orchestra that would make Kay look sick. Those were his very words. Roland said the price would be 55150, and we decided that wouldn't be too much if we could get a truly outstanding orchestra. That night tMondayj, Roland called us and told us to be ready to take a trip. About eight o'clock he came by and we got in his car and left Dallas. He said we were going to San Antonio. On the way, we stopped at Austin to see Joe Blue and His Collegians, but they were no good. At San Antonio, Roland let us in on a big surprise. The band he had in mind was Hal Kemp! Imagine Hal Kemp playing at our annual dance! Naturally we were excited, and we kept telling Roland that we couldn't afford such a big name. He laughed and told us that he had another surprise. VVe could get Kemp, for unknown reasons, for the measly sum of 35200. We were beginning to think that Roland was full of surprises. But for 200 bucks, although that amount was way over our budget, we felt we could afford Hal Kemp. The com- mittiee reasoned that an increased number of ex-members would swell our coffers until we could pay such a price. VVe were, as you might have guessed, again disappointed. It seems that Roland was badly mistaken about Hal Kemp. The band was Hal Campo and His Swing Orchestra. Roland apologized deeply for his error, and we indeed felt sorry for him. Xhfe decided that the best thing we could do was look over this Hal Campo, so we did. The band was playing at a night club there and the visit was on Roland, finan- cially. Campo's band showed possibilities, but they certainly weren't worth 35200. At the night club, after we had voted thumbs down on Fampo, Roland ran into a fellow named Blaz, who was a theatrical agent. Blaz, learning of Page221 our mission, said he had just what we wanted. He said that he had booked a band for a stage show and the show fell through so we migh- be able to get the band at a reasonable price. VVell, things moved pretty fast after that. Roland went back to Dallas and we stayed with Blaz. The next thing we knew we were in El Paso looking over this new bunch of musical sensa- tions. CBlaz had to go to El Paso anyway.j This stage band was juan Garrillo and His Mexican Serenaders. Don't ask me about them! Then followed interviews with managers of the following orchestras in El Paso: Ralph VValdon and His Orchestra, Able Rant and His Ranters, The Californians, and Eddie Torrance and His Torrid Tooters. They were all lousy. Blaz sug- gested that we go on to New Mexico with him, where, according to Blaz, there was a honey tmaybe he should have been a stockbrokerj of a band for only 35250. As you'know, this was double our quota, but we thought we might as well investigate. If I were to relate all that happened on our New Mexico trip fwhich incidently extended as far as California where we were introduced to Horace Heidtl, this report would be too lengthyg so we'll skip everything that happened until we got back to Dallas. It was, by the way, late in February when we got back to Dallas. You see, we were really on the job. Back in Dallas, we ran into Roland again and the minute we saw him he started yelling with jubilance. It seemed that due to a fire at Fort VVorth, he could get us a real band for only 35300. VVe drew the line. XN7e told him S125 was our price and we weren't going to pay a cent more. He took our ultimatum very nicely, and promised to get us a band, solwe went up to his office. At his office, he showed us some more pamphlets Cwe had three suitcases full by this time? of bands in our price range. VVe finally decided on Buddy Scholtz, who, of all things, had been in Dallas all the time! His orchestra is truly a good one, and we feel l' i ' ,ir , , 31, ' I l'l E I V . ' PM 3 f i ll ill I -ff'-,-r ,.w . J V 3 that the 35350 we agreed to pay him will be a good investment. Incidentally, we won't be back for the annual dance. Regards to the boys. Contract en- closed.

CThe opening scene shows Student Council President Sellers seated at a desk with his feet propped on the desk-top. He is reading a copy of The East Texan. Secretary Fanning is at a small table, thumbing a well-worn minute book. Student Council members Keahey, Edgar, Tully, and Defee are draped across closely grouped chairs. Member Hathcox is alone in a corner, looking out a window. Sellers finishes reading his paper, tosses it into a wastebasket, and stares vacantly at Fanningj SELLERS: Call the roll-I mean read the minutes of last meeting. It's time we got to work. FANNING: W'ell, according to the minutes we convened last on- SELLERS: Never mind. We'll dispense with the reading of the minutes. We have some important business to transact this morning. QThis statement brings the council members to attention. Sellers rises at the desk.j SELLERS: VVe, as duly elected student officials of the Student Council, have been sadly neglecting our duty to the students! QThere are mingled cries of Hear, hear! and You said it, brother from the council- menj SELLERS: Quiet! Today we turn over a new leaf. Today sees a new era in student government on the campus!

VVe have ten witnesses who will swear that on one chapel program she played a waltz in 4-4 time instead of 3-4. There was a useless waste of a quarter note every measure she played. We have wit- nesses who will swear that she played sixty-four measures. Therefore, we have a total of sixty- four wasted notes-or, roughly, sixty-four seconds-lost. Without reason, too! If that is not sheer defiance to the student council, well- if that is not sheer dehance-, then-well, some- thing should be done. What do you say, gentle- men? CHORUS: Guilty! SELLERS: All right. VVe will deprive her of her library privileges. Case 869 is settled! Get that, Fanning? FANNING: I have it. Shall I read the next case? HATHCOX: I make a motion this meet- ing adjourn. SELLERS: Motion tabled. Read the next case, Secretary. - FANNING: Case 870. The Student Coun- cil versus Tiny Thornton . EDGAR: Thornton--What's he done?

SELLERS: Yes, there is one iron-clad case against him. I might add that Thornton's violations have been numerous, but we just need one case for a conviction. Read the details, Secretary Fanning. FANNING: VVell, the night we played Denton a basketball game in Whitley gymnasium it all happened. While the boys were warming up before the game, this Thornton gave forth a whistling cry which was heard throughout the entire gym. fThere are exclamations from the council- menj. ' FANNING: This cry, according to wit- nesses, was a sort of whistle which was very irritating. SELLERS: Mr. Fanning, could you give us an example of the particular cry? 'FANNING: VVell, Mr. President, I'm not much of an imitator, but it goes something like this.. fFanning rises, moistens his lips, and gives forth a cry. It sounds much like the sound of a bullet in the Foreign Legion picturesj SELLERS: Excellent! Gentlemen, need we hear any more? CHORUS: Guilty! CA bell rings. Sellers looks at his watch.Q SELLERS: Chapel period. EDGAR: I make a motion we adjourn. SELLERS: Motion carried, but before we go I have one thing to say. You members be on the lookout for those persons on this campus -not calling any names, you understand-who refuse to be prompt at collegiate exercises, and also look for persons who do not conduct them- selves orderly and quietly on the campus.

The bililding is quiet. The morning sun shines in-4 a window, giving a very peaceful effect. Sellers leans forward in his chair and apparently goes to sleep. Another bell rings. He raises his head slowly and glances at his watch. He starts to rise, but he sees a book on the table and slumps back down in his chair. He picks up the book. The audience can see the title. It is The Nine Old Men. Sellers casually thumbs through the pages and finally starts reading the book in earnest. He gives a sudden laugh and then swings his chair around and continues reading. The curtain slowly fallsj The end. A recent press item out of New York gives the nation's ten most overworked words. They are: okay, terrific, lousy, contact, definitely, gal, racket, swell, impact, and honey. We thought it would be interesting to find the ten most over-used words on the East Texas campus, so we sent a squad of undercover men around to the various campus haunts and here's the list they brought back. 1.

After the speaker had been fined ten cents for bringing up such a social event, the rest of the staff started discussing the function. The fined member immediately lined the other thirty-nine present ten cents each for bringing up the subject, but the case was pigeon-holed along with the printing contract- but that's getting ofi the subject. CGetting off in a big way if you ask me.J Anyway we all got around to talking about the Kalir Annual, and one of the group this identity was lost in the confusion following his suggestionj mentioned the possibility of con- cealing a dictaphone somewhere and recording the actual conversation of some Kalir during the entire dance. Wfhat an idea! VVe didn't know until that time that any staff member was that brilliant. In fact, some skeptic later said that the suggestion wasn't made by a staff member at all but was mentioned by a member of Sigma Tau Delta who got into the wrong room by mis- take. Anyway we had the idea! Stupendous! Gigantic! Darn good! Of course planting a dictaphone is no easy job and we had several sleepless nights working Page 226 . ,',,,. L. G.

That, dear readers, was brainwork! . Then, after three more sleepless nights Cduring which I lost 33.54 at contractj we de- cided that Jean Edge was to be our medium. Splendid! Incidentally, the way we selected jean was rather novel. We elected her. Of course, that's not very novel, but when we received 56 ballots from thirty-nine members of the grind staff-that was novel. CI forgot to tell you that we had lost one member of the staff. How- ever he later turned up in a wastebasket in the girls' dormitory with some splendid candid camera shots.j , Everything was all set. VVe made arrange- ments with the florist, by promising to pay our last year's bills, to conceal the apparatus in Jean's gardenias. Stupendous! CI know, I've said that beforej The only detail lacking from this breath- taking scheme was how we could get the dicta- phone after the dance was over. Vile doped ten of our better brains with coffee and awaited results. Finally our committee decided that the staff member who received an invitation to the affair would lift the corsage-apparatus and all-when the dance was nearing its Iinish. This was to be done by a magnetic lapel which would literally pluck the corsage from jean's dress. fTo make sure that our magnetic lapel would work, we dressed one of our staff members in a dress and let another member, with the magnetic lapel, dance with the corsaged staff member. The magnetic lapel worked! It not only plucked the corsage but the dress as welll, Of course we lowered the voltage after such a test so as not to attract too much attention when the real plucking took place.J With everything all set, the grind staff met every night to rejoice over the Grand Idea. The Kalir Annual drew nearer and nearer. VVe drew straws to see who could use the invitation that one of us was sure to get. The Kalir Annual continued to approach. VVe continued to meet in rowdy sessions. Finally, about March 3rd, if,I remember correctly, one of the staff members inquired about the dictaphone.

But, boy, would that have been a scoop! FIRST NIGHTERS Curtain going up . . . smoking in the outer lobby only . . . curtain going up . . . First nighters Rix, Sellers, Fanning, and Edgar rubbed their hands in eager anticipation. CThe show tonight was not something by Noel Cowardj The overture. Six musicians blaring on worn- out instruments. A piano player pounding des- perately to get sounds out of a worn-out piano. CNO violins were in this orchestraj The curtain goes up. An hour of entertain- ment passed by unnoticed by the East Texas theater enthusiasts. Would the show's str never go on? fHelen Hayes was not tonight's star. Neither was Katherine Cornell for that matter.j Ah! The Star! Spotlights! Rix began a steady hand-clap. Edgar and Fanning leaned forward in their seats to get a better view of tonight's star. Sellers waited. Da da daaa daa da .... Our East Texas group was appreciative. The show continued. Clt was that kind of show.j Suddenly from the East Texas delegation came a shrill cry, Get a Horse! Fanning, Edgar, and Rix exchanged glances. Could this be Our Sellers behaving in such a fashion? Definitely, they decided as Sellers continued the cry. Get a Horse! and It'd take one!

Oh, yes, I remember that when I went to school, after supper, we had to go to our room and study. You know we would read books and things. GIRLS: Gee, thanks, we understand now. HOUSE-MOTHER: Maybe you ought to be rather quiet after that time. I'll call the dean tomorrow and ask her about it. Page 229 MAYSIE: Well, look, we don't have any time to read or anything. Do we have to? MRS. FLUB-DUB: I don't think so. . I'll ask someone. CHouse-mother starts to leave. Sadie runs across room and reads the rules.j L SADIE: I may not be in until after 10:30 tonight.

It says the radio and piano must be tuned low after 10:00 p. m., and we haven't any piano. HOUSE-MOTHER: Oh, that's terrible. Let me see. I guess I'll have to buy one. Remind me to call about it tomorrow. SADIE: How do you have a piano tuned low? HOUSE-MOTHER: Oh, look at this light. It seems a little dim. I wonder if it is a 60-watt. You know that's in the rules.

The brave, young lads, not attending school here, must have felt a trifle bad over such a crime: so they hoisted out their change combined to net the sum of eight greenbacks of one buck denomination and brought the young ladies back to the dorm in time for the eleven o'clock curfew. But kitty is some cat and in the next few days she calls in her little kittens and decides that since nobody saw them doing anything they would prefer charges against the breaker-uppers And now, would you believe, those intruders got their just deserves and foodless picnicking is just as safe as playing Ping Pong on the kitchen table.

CBut by this time everyone has gone somewhere else which he won't like any better than being where he was, but at any rate it's a changej STUDENT OFFICE HOLDERS or THE EASE OF SOME LIFE It's a great life to be an officer, either major or minor, of the student association. For all the office holders there is a lot of prestige and pub- licity and only a little work. If he is senior presi- dent, all he has to worry about is to have a few seniors meet on Wfednesday, or Friday, to select class rings, dedicate the Locust, elect a sponsor, plan senior week with its some six or eight functions, make a gift to the college in their behalf, and do a few other minor things. If he is an editor, just a few deadlines to meet with copy is all of his worries in one. Just ex: . :af . A 937 OCUST 0 I rwfvr ? ,ga w -3 -is -ff Grille! . . imagine drawing a salary from the school for meeting a few measly deadlines! Why most people have a definite time to eat and get nothing at all for their trouble. It has been rumored too that he never has to attend class, and usually passes the courses, too! He can court in. his office all night with the lights burning and a hired typist beating on the typewriters to keep the night watchman from suspecting, play sluff and golf at any time day or night, sleep all day. eat at any time he feels the urge and never re- ceive any criticism for anything-other than the few minor hints as to the worth of his pub- lication. Yes, it must be sweet and easy to be an editor-and think of having the position and standing out in the minds of the students. VNow, take the president of the S. C. He has the cream of the crop. Thirty a month and representing the students his entire duties. Of course, he works in some office as long as others getting the same salary, but just think of the prestige. Too, presiding in assembly each Tues- day and Thursday, holding elections, promoting all the aims of the student association and repre- senting the students along with the rest of the minor duties of the office is duck soup for any- one.

Shall we dance? 9:00. Aw, heck! Intermission. Hey, joe! Grab your date and let's get out of here. 9:15. What'll it be? Hamburgers? You don't want a hamburger. We can go to the pharmacy then. 10:00.

Darn this niclgejifiaainetropel .!-J THE GIRLS' CLUBS' ,AT A GLANCE Kalirs Quantity above quality has been the motto of the Omicron Kappa Kappas, and we don't know as we blame them. After all, more pledges mean more money and more money means bigger and better social functions . . . maybe in years to come a ball that would put the Idlewild hop into mere insignilicance. The only complaint of this exclusive club has been the lack of orchids for social functions. They are a bit resentful at the attitude of the boys who are honored to be an escort. Why can't there be orchids? Even at teas these lofty sisters have to go practically orchidless. The plan of switching an orchid about among the members won't work, they found out. T ooanoowe Without Claudia's rhythm, janabel's and Marguerite's beauty, Potter's Dear Suzy, Mary Dot's This Week, and Chadwick's scholastic ability, what would become of the Tee-na- weenies? Boasting a two-girl publicity section has no doubt saved the club's reputation during this year of Maine and Vermont tactics. Along with Tooanoowe, may we say phooey to the pledging system. Or can we be heard above the Tooanoowe cry? Les C hoisiles The Matrimonial Bureau of East Texas Ca husband with every pledge ribbonj has de- veloped in the ladies' sewing circle with about 98.72, of the membership falling prey to the knitting siege. In fact, the ability to knit and have a date at the same time has been incor- porated into the Les' Rules For Pledgeship. .Marpessas Something must be done about Mickey fHope Chestl Parsons before this club can pro- gress.

For instance who could point to a more assorted crew than Nona Hayes, Elsie Lovelace, Yvonne Frost, and Jennie Russell? Who would want to? THE BOYS' CLUBS AT A GLANCE The Friar Club This political-social organization threatens to bite off more than it can chew? You can't have your cake and eat it too, or something like that. However, with Sellers' graduation finally here, the club might settle down to a normal existence. The Friars, in the hustle and bustle of filling a student council, lost out this year to the Ogimas in scholastic ability. By having power of the press, nothing was ever said of this slip-up, so the matter is really not important. Nobody can criticize the Friars though, for these boys do turn up with top-notch orchestras for their dances-and criticism and dance bids don't mix. The Ogima Club This group of clubmen have been loafing the whole year. Since giving up discussion of cur- rent events, there is nothing to ,publicize in the East Texan. What if they did pledge Billie Ward? Or Rex Coppedge? Or Leon Taylor? You can't write columns about that. With a pretense of giving current events, the public could be fooled anyway. We would suggest that the Ogimas put current events back into the constitution and give their press agent a break. Shame, shame, Ogimas, for letting the Friars beat you in basket ball. Where's your honor? Something to think about: the punch board racket won't work always. The Arlema Club Gardenias have brought this club out of the rut. There's nothing like a gardenia or two around the place to put your name on the map. Hal Horton has been a valuable member, we agree. There must be others, too. Having a whole week's celebration is a good idea, too. One good idea a year is enough, anyway. Can the Friars point to one good idea? Can the Ogimas? On second thought, I believe they can-but it doesn't matter.

NICKELSON ..... 472, Typical comments made by those interviewed: . . . Fanning is definitely on the way out. . . Neal is making a strong fight. I think his consistency will result in victory. . . . In casting my vote for Dismuke, I am only playing a hunch. Results of April 7 poll: FIRST CHOICE HAROLD NEAL .... 99423 SECOND CHOICE ALL OTHERS ..... ....... . . UZ So the April 7 poll conducted by the Locust Institute of Public Opinion shows that Harold Neal is considered by 99? of the student body as the next May King. Will the guess of the students be right-or will an upset occur? Such a unanimous acclamation of Neal as the next king leads the Institute authorities to conclude that an upset is impossible. The race for May King was the most torrid in years. It seems that Neal swept all other contenders from the scene when he really started to work in earnest. The subtle campaigns of Fanning and Dismuke may have been more effective than realized by the casual observer. No doubt, Fanning's political worries kept him from making a stronger race. Although the Locust Institute does not claim to be absolutely correct in its observations based on scientific research, we claim at this point CApri1 7D that Neal will be the escort of Miss Elizabeth Salmon during May Day festivities.

Comes back from' class to find that somebody has drawn funny pictures all over the paper he put in the typewriter. Decides to let Fanning write assignment sheet. Calls Fanning on phone and tells him what to do. Rix leaves. C4 P. MJ Fanning comes in' East Texan office, lights a cigaret, and starts to work. Finally gets sheet typed out. Rix comes in and makes a few notes in the margin. Both conclude that sheet is com- plete, so it is tacked on bulletin board. Tuesday All the staff rushes in to get assignments and read the funny remarks Rix has written in the margin. Jimmie Sue Branom remarks that this makes the 16th consecutive week she has drawn the dean's offices for assignments and comments strongly on same. ' Hope Carden lingers over board fully fifteen minutes. VVillie F orehand comes in and marks aw nutz on his assignment and promptly for- gets all about it. A few more stragglers come in to see what their assignments are, and promptly follow Willie's example in forgetting about the work to be done. At 5 o'clock Editor Rix comes in office and looks to see if any copy has been turned in. There hasn't been, as usual. Rix edits a Col- legiate Press item about the students at Oakposh University deciding that girls that don't smoke are more popular than the girls who swim over- handed. Ho hum. 4 . Wednesday ,Editor Rix realizes with a start that no copy has been written this week at all. Thinks about it all morning and gets even with staff by re- porting bad work for all to journalism teacher.

Wednesday afternoon Editor Rix personally chides several staff members about late copy, and then writes three columns for Dallas News. Dallas News runs stuff in six point-but that's off the subject. g Wednesday night Editor Rix can't decide whether to have a date or write copy. Decides to toss a coin to settle the issue. Heads he writes copy, tails he has a date. On the four- teenth toss, tails comes up and the East Texan office is closed for the day. CClosed officially, that is, asthere are several ping pong matches after the business is postponedj t Thursday Thursday dawns peacefully enough and en- tire staff rushes into office demanding copy paper. Copy 'paper is passed out. Mary Dot Young meditates fifteen minutes over lead paragraph for This Week and decides to wait until after- noon. Other columns, however, trickle in. The first news story is yet to come. Thursday afternoon the staff members dis- appear and are not seen again until the following Saturday when they come around to demand why certain bits of their copy were left out. Meanwhile Editor Rix trudges down to the Journal office and bangs out 99 per cent of the East Texan news. The other 1 per cent comes in when Hickerson slips in the back door and linotypes his own account of the week-before- last Ogima meeting. F riday Editor Rix bounces down to the' journal office fairly early considering the amount of coffee consumed the night before. The mechan- ical force is waiting at the door with galleys of type and heads that don't match. Rix explains that stories guided Denton game . . . must have Regents Speak . for a headand vice versa. It's all in the system. Friday afternoon the papers roll off the press -late but newsy.

THE PLAN HOW TO ENJOY A CLASS The trouble with East Texas is, as far as political business is concerned, the lack of a democratic spirit on the campus. When only 83 sophomores cast 87 votes in Ja class election, there is definitely an incentive lacking. If some- thing like 125 ballots could be cast from a class of 83, the real thing would be there. H.. VVe have always liiked the plan of john Finkle, class of '08, when it comes to voting. Finkle, it may be remembered by a few of the students of long standing, was the only East Texas student to ever cast 52 votes on one day. VVe took special pains to locate Mr. Finkle and learn his plan for mass voting by an in- dividual. VVe were, however, disappointed in his theory: after all it's so simple that we should have thought of it long ago. Finkle's coup, as it is often called, is some- thing like this: About three weeks before the class meeting, introduce a motion to have a clock installed in each room where elections are to be held. The motion will carry-at least it did in 'O8. Then, after the clocks are installed, simply slip in the day before elections and set the clocks to differ- ent hours. Have the freshman clock set cor- rect, the sophomore clock set fifteen minutes later, and so on. Then, on the day of elections, one can rush to the freshman meeting and vote, and have plenty of time to attend the other class meetings over 'the campus. This plan was very interesting to us, but we were forced to ask Mr. Finkle how he managed to gain admittance at all the meetings. He told us he registered four times under different names and different classifications. He admitted this cost quite a wad of money, but he reminded us of the thrill of leading a quad- ruple life. More interesting than the plan, we think, was the result of his registering under four clas- sifications. By some queer stroke of fate he passed all his courses and was graduated in one year. VVe thought that was rather interesting. 1 Q To enjoy a class, it is first necessary to get there about fifteen minutes late. After getting to class it will be at least five minutes before you Weary of proceedings. Then there is only thirty- five minutes to go. For the next ten minutes you can read a letter or something. In doing this, you should open the letter slowly and when Finished, neatly fold the letter. You can easily kill ten minutes by this procedure. Now you only have twenty- five minutes to go. VVhat now? Get out a piece of note-book paper and grab your pencil and see how many circles you can draw on the paper in live minutes. Then see how many squares you can put in the circles. Then put triangles in the squares. Before you know it, there is only fifteen minutes to go. For the next five minutes, try to name the starting line-up of last year's football team. If you can name all positions in a hurry, try line- ups on the basket ball teams. There is only ten minutes to go now. If you have a watch, and you should, try the following tests: 1. See how long you can hold your breath. 2. See how near you can come to guessing the passing of a minute's time--without looking at the watch, of course. 3. See how many times you can say East Texas State Teachers College in a minute. CPar is thirty-eight times.j Now you will discover with a gasp that it is only three minutes until bell time. In these last three minutes, see how many of your classmates you can name. If the class is small, you can count the times the teacher says the in one minute. With only one minute to go, you should start getting ready to leave. By the time you get your books together, approximately twenty seconds will remain. Try counting to twenty then. The bell will ring after you've got to fourteen. zmgfafzz l'-HI!

I-IOXV TO FOIL THE DEANS As a usual rule there are few ways to com- pletely baffle the deans with none of them sus- pecting something-but keep this in mind: There is always one way to do anything. On a certain night there was a dance, an all- college dance to be exactg and because of not having a permit one girl was going to have to stay away from the hop. She had been teach- ing all day Cshe was an ex engaged in teaching home economicsj and hadn't had the oppor- tunity to sign up and get one of the useless cards that is always forgotten. The net result Cor is it grossj was that in spite of all attempts to get Page 243 a permit or to devise a method of proceduf' gain admittance there was no known procedure which would be legal and within the law Now after , doping out the layout' of the building tthis dance was held within the library- in the readingiroom to be exactj, two brains, doped a little withfftwo cups each of French dripped coffee and -'contemplation of future strategy useful in sltitfj' conceived the idea that the object was to get past the doorman taking up the permits. Yes, that was it-to get past the permit-taker-upper. Now to be past this gentleman where would this girl be? VVith a perfectly guided deduction and a slight overworked analysis of drawings, the boy-who by the way was the second party concerned other than the first fthe girl of coursej -completed the layout with the only places past the permit-taker-upper being within the library and to be exactly correct somewhere be- tween the actual dance floor tthe reading roomj and the lobby in the first Hoor where the doorman was standing. With this in mind there was only one other thing-that was how could a girl be placed within a place where she wasn't if the guy keep- ing the door wouldn't let her in. That was easy for the doped brain-yes, easy. To himself, he kept on saying that all buildings Cthat is or- dinary buildingsj have two openingsfwindows and doors. Now since there wasn't any permit- taker-uppers at the windows, why couldn't he let this ex in through the window-yes, that was it! Eureka! He had it! VVith his permit Che had onej he marched in past the doorman and into a classroom and opening a window whistled to the girl waiting in his car. From hence the story is simple and it again proves there is always a way, even if it is in foiling the deans-but they have been foiled before and didn't know it, and so long as they don't know it why should it matter?

That it will be revised again within the next forty years. I SLIPS THAT PASS IN THE NIGHT Of course it must not be known until after elections for fear that some intelligent inde- pendent might think up something that really shouldn't be thought up, but within the lockers of the East Texan office-yes, within the lockers of the business manager of that publication- was found a book. Now this book was not just a mere book but a book with a past and a future meaning as well as a present interpretation. But, getting down to facts, the title of the book was really what was significant about the book. The title was . . . Boss Rule. is oo J. il. . ,... 7.

It seems like four years! VVhat memories I can glean from a rapid survey of the activities I have crammed into four short years. VVhen I began my collegiate career, the East Texas campus was still struggling in the era of the good old days-so called because of the lack- adaisical attitude of the students. A beautiful thing, mes amis, memories. If I only had one I'd be better off. As I gaze back down Memory Laine, I can still see all my old friends and fellow students- I can see an endless chain of my colleagues marching to and fro from the dean's office to the president's office. How nonchalant they appeared during these little jaunts. But let me go back to the early days and see if I can find words to paint a word picture-at fifty cents a word. It was back in 1932 that a group of us used to dine together at the old Collegiate Inn, which later gave way to the Freshman Kitchen, which in turn gave way to Lovers' Retreat, which in turn gave away nothing. We were as gay a set of blades as ever figured in a biographical sketch. At first we met there to eat and sing. Then after we had heard ourselves sing, we met there only to eat. It was out of this happy, carefree gathering that the Crap Shooters Association was born. It happened this way. As I remember it, it was a rainy April evening when all of us were sitting around a dingy table drinking Sec and discuss- ing Secs. Somehow the subject of crap shooting entered the Conversation and instantly the place was a confusion of tongues, as someone knocked over a plate of them used to make sandwiches. The C. S. A., I regret to say, was short- lived, or -lifed. Anyway, before the night was over we had officially decided not to enter crap shooting in our extra-curricular activities. And it is well, too, that we didn't, for that very night was evolved something much greater- The Players' Club. R '4 .1 , . 1, ,vu 3. . Y . .. ,ml ST Liga.- h.-. 1.f One of our group drew himself to his full height and announced: I will found adramatic group! I didn't know you lost one, was the snappy quip of one of our members, but the plan was never discouraged. A dramatic group was founded. The next morning students going to class rubbed their eyes in amazement as they passed, what only the day before, had been a vacant plot of ground between the Main building and Industrial Hall. For there stood a magnificent sign, resplendent in red plush and gold paint, and across the front of it was written in bold letters- DO NOT WALK ON THE CAM- PUS. And so the Players' Club was born. I only wish I could trace the history of that memorable dramatic group, but I mustn't elab- orate on personal enjoyments. After the Play- ers' Club, I enjoyed membership in the Golf Club KNO. 25, the Wfriters' Club, the Abolition Club, the Country Club, and by mistake I was once pledged into the Kalir Klub during one of the club's rushing activities. Ah, those happy, happy crowded days. It was then I began writing an East Texan theat- rical column. I saw so many movies that I had cinema roles and coffee for breakfast every morn- ing. The column was very popular with a few of the students-three to be exact. Even now I fancy I hear the plaudits of these faithful three as the East Texans roll off the press. Time and again I bow to the frenzied applause of the claque. Did I click with the claque! But those good old days are gone now. Old faces have disappeared. Others have been lifted. A new bunch of students has taken the campus by storm. Now even elections have become a legitimate business. In the old days, the first to the ballot box after the casting of votes had a cinch for election. To enumerate all the events of those happy years of my undergraduate days would take up as much room as the Congressional Record and prove just about as interesting. So, adieu, good friends-adieu!

No Nice Girl Swears is better than any of Miss Post's books because the author takes for granted that you know a little bit and goes into details. But to get back to our subject, the title of the book is very misleading. just look at the nice girls on this campus and you will see what a mistake the author has made. However she does say that an occasional damn is not derogatory Cwhatever that isj but that continued use of cuss words is definitely out. The greatest trouble with this book is that the librarians cannot get any one to read it except the ones on the library staff and they don't need it because librarians never swear anyway or if they do, they do under their breath because they know what they would get if they said any of it aloud. Probably one reason that more people don't read this book is that there is a chapter titled You're the First Man I Ever Kissed and everyone just says to himself Well, my good- ness, she must be terribly inexperienced and not know what she is talking about anyway. But that's not the way to look at it. She may just be young or something or maybe she was only saying it in an ironical tone of voice and didn't mean for anyone to believe her. Some of the chapters really don't help a col' lege student, as for instance the one called Shall I Ask Him In? because every college girl knows she will ask him in if it isn't too late only it always is because nobody ever gets home any too early and one usually has to crawl in the window or cut the screen or something as it is. Of course she would ask her date in, but it's pretty embarassing to try to help some hefty youth through the door that's locked or a screen that's very high up. There is no doubt that No Nice Girl Swearsl' is a true statement because we knew a nice girl once and she only said Oh my goodness when she was overwrought. Anyway it's a good book, but why is it that when you read a book like that you always feel as if you could give the author a few pointers yourself P Page 252 41 lr ' 'ai 'e ai x ff so l .'

THE EPISODE OF THE CAKE Neatly dressed in white tie, tails, and similar accessories, an obvious gentleman of the upper classes walked into a bakery and called for the manager. When the manager arrived, the gentleman explained that he wanted a very nice cake shaped like the letter S , . The manager assured him that such an order could be filled, and the gentleman left the shop. The manager of the bakery called one -of his most trusted bakers and told him of the order. The baker then went to a special manufacturing concern and ordered a special pan to bake the cake in. The day after the order was placed, the gentleman walked into the shop and inquired about his cake. The baker explained that the cake had not been baked, but he could see the special pan that was to be used in the baking. The baker then brought forth the pan. Goodness, said the gentleman, it's a good thing you haven't baked the cake. This isn't the kind of 'S' I had in mind. This is a block 'S'-I wanted a script 'S'. The baker called the manager and the three talked the situation over. The manager ex- plained that to order another pan would be an additional expense. The gentleman assured the manager that expense was not to be considered, to go ahead and order the pan. So the manager ordered a pan with an S of script. The next day the gentleman again entered the shop and the manager brought out the cake. The cake was a beautiful sight, but the gentle- man showed no signs of elation. Sorry, he said, but this cake won't do. There are too many serifs on this S -you'll have to bake another cake. Charge this cake up to me, but try to do better on the next one. The gentleman left the shop and the manager called his baker and together they planned a cake that would suit their particular customer. That night the cake was carefully baked. When the gentleman called the next day, the manager brought out the cake. Beautiful, said the gentleman. This is the kind of cake that I have wanted all the time. Everything is just right. I'm glad you're satisfied, said the manager. 'Where shall I send it? 1 Never mind, was the reply. I'll eat it here.
