The sentiments of the editor in regard to the 1940 Locust are expressed in the note above, written on a reproduction of official Locust stationery. The reader probably notices that the color scheme throughout the boola is brown and green-two colors which were selected because of their vividness together, and their peculiar agreement with the beau- tiful lzodachrome division pages throughout the boolz. DEDICHTION To Miss Maud Webster, one whom we consider the most outstanding woman on the campus of East Texas State Teachers College, and one whom we are proud to thinh of as our friend, we, the editor and business manager of the 1940 Locust, respectfully dedicate this publication. A sincere believer in youth, and the very epitome of the youthful spirit itself, Miss Webster has been a source of inspiration to all students who have had any contact with her. East Texas State should be proud to be able to call Miss Maud Webster a member of its faculty. - ., ' ' ' '.-.- 'w's'..---mt.,-, w w, 41. - : , ,. , V- f , ,iw 52: , T N 'F ' A -- N V ..

They have not been the only leaders in the United States, but they have contributed their portion of responsibility as leaders in the affairs of the nation. A democracy is a co-operative effort on the part of all the people, and teachers have not failed to perform their duties as citizens of the country and as leaders in our civilization. You, as members of the graduating class of 1940, have demon- strated your abilities and capacities as citizens of our country. You have given demonstrations of your power as leaders, and as you tahe your places in the performance of the duties incident to the teaching profession, the college feels that you will uphold the ideals of leadership the same as classes which have preceded you. Within a few short years, you will be holding positions of responsibility, people will be loohing to you for guidance, children will be safe and sound. May God bless you in your efforts, direct you in your worh, and heep you consecrated to the cause of right in the leader- ship which will come to you. Sincerely, Sam H. Whitley, President me BEAUTY IN A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE Angela Rotundi, Evelyn Waddle, and Janet Waggener pose in front of the graceIuI manteI in the East Dormitory.

YELL LEHDERS The 1939 football season failed to produce a Lone Star Conference championship For East Texas State, and the student body, jaded with championship teams in 1937 and 1938, was hard to bring out of its lethargy. But thanlzs to four peppy cheer leaders, the students yelled the Lions on in victory and defeat.

LIONS TRIUMPH AGAIN IN BASKETBALL For the second year in succession the East Texas State Lions, coached by the inimitabIe Dennis Vinzant, won seven out ot eight Lone Star Con- ference games to tahe the championship of the Texas teacher coIIege loop. They added to their Iaurels further by winning one of Four tournaments that they entered against the greatest cage teams in the nation, winning seven tournament games whiIe Iosing onIy three. They were Lone Star Con- ference champions and Texas AAU Izings. Leading the Lions in their pennant march was eIongated Bob Carpenter from Branom, Texas, who tied the conference scoring record with 129 points in eight Ieague games and continuaIIy sparI2ed his quintet to championship performances. AII con- ference center in the opinion of nearly everybody who piched a team, Carpenter was aIso mentioned Ior AII-American during the NationaI CoIIegiate tournament at Kansas City.

Far left: Woodrow Renwiclz, thc smooth- est floorman, the most deceptive passer, and the sweetest handler in the Lone Star Conference.

They maize a sugary combination that schools over the state have found trouble in solving. Both possess almost perfect tennis temperaments and numerous love sets in matches this season attest to the truthfulness of this statement. East Texas State's net team does well by having this doubles outfit on their squad. JOE KRCESEN . . . East Texas State was luclzy to have Jimmy Kroesen on the tennis team, but when Jimmy per- suaded his brother Joe to come to Commerce, it was a great day for the Lions. This boy has one of the hardest overhands ever seen on the Lion courts, and he is a definite tennis comer. BEN HARRY . . . Harry plays to his opponent's weaiznesses and his steady, heady game tires his oppo- nents and gets their goat faster than most smashing players. Although there is nothing spectacular about Harry's tennis, with the possible exception of his forehand, the scores at the end of the matches attest to his effective game. As the Locust went to press, the Lions were playing their first confer- ence game ofthe year against South- west Texas State in San Marcos. Be- fore that they had appeared in four matches and won them all except one, despite injuries to Kroesen and Grin- nan that crippled them greatly. Falling before the burning shots of the Lions were NTAC, twice, and the Texas Christian Horned Frogs. Only South- ern Methodist had won over the strong Lions, and much of that could be attributed to concrete courts on which the ETSTC boys had never played before. It loolzs lihe a great season for Dr. Butler's proteges. RACQUETEERS Q JIMMY FREEMAN . . . Here's that smash- ing service that gains aces for the Lion singles ace, and if you thinlz it's not fast as lightning just get in front of those tennis balls as Freeman Fires them oft his racquets. They looh lilze marbles coming at you and are harder to handle. Freeman does more than his share for ETSTC tennis. JIMMY KROESEN . . . Kroesen's best shot is the baclahand of which he is a past master. Quiet, unassuming, and Friendly, Jimmy Kroesen's game is a marvel to watch. He ap- parently tal2es it easy, but that nonchalant manner gets his opponent and begins staclzing up points before the match is sec- onds old. Kroesen's good and maize no bones about it. ALTON SCHULZE . . . A Fast, hard-playing racqueteer is Schulze. He plays a bang-up offensive game that sweeps the court on the opposite side of the net clean. His forehand is his best strohe, and woe to the opponent that plays to his right side. Schulze garners points aplenty for the Lions and his playing probably has more appeal than any other member of the team.

Earl Witcher, one of time outstanding sprinters in the coun- try for 1939 l'1ad not run a fast century all season, but was steadily improving. AI Coolz, one of tlie best middle distance men in Texas, had disappointed a time or two, except in beating Wayne Rideout in the lialf mile in a dual meet, and l-larold McRae, javelin ace, had not reaclwed top form, but the Lions were coming . . . and pointing to tire Lone Star Conference meet in Denton on May 12 and 13. Just wl1at the 1940 Lions had in store for time East Texas State fans remained to be seen. qi .gs-an o 'U , I 1' 1 Buster Bourland . . . an alleround good tracl: man, Bourland specialized in the hurdles and was no Slouch at clearing the barriers. ln 1939 Benson was not spectacular, but hs ed lor 1940 and here you see im he improv leading Jachson of North Texas across the finish line to beat Denton's hopes in the 440-yard dash in a dual meet on March 23.

Right: l.ool2 who's herel Blaine Rideout, nemesis of scores of intercollegiate milers.

Right: Bob Harp, captain-elect of the 1940 grid team, in his role as pole vaulter for the Blue and Gold cause. Harp teamed with Randolph Harris of Texarlzana to lzeep the Lions' hopes alive in this event. . .and they did a swell job. Harris won the pole vault event For East Texas State in the dual meet with Denton. For three years, until the Denton-ETS-lf meet on March 23, the Lions had been un- defeated in dual or triangular competition, but through no fault of the 1940 traclz squad, the best in the school's history, Den- ton toolz the meet with a galaxy of stars the lilze of which has never been seen in the Lone Star. Here on this page are seen some more of the boys who are persistent point- gatherers in the conference. Top left: Avon Rice, the Greenville Flyer, gives with one ol his broad jumps that was threatening the conference record, as this was written. Top right: Pacer Morris, the most im- proved boy on the Lion squad, a member of two or three relay combinations and a sweet man in the middle distances. Bottom left: the inimitable Al Coole, the best 880-yard man in Texas, we say. Coolfs specialty is beating Denton's Rideouts in a relay race. Coolz is good and has the com- petitive heart of the traclfz star. . . a poten- tial Olympic entry. East Texas is behind in the sprint relay, but wait until Benson gives the baton to Rice and that worthy passes it on to Earl Witcher. Things may be different, as they often were in numerous traclz meets, although North Texas won this particular race by a short margin. Witcher, incidentally, ran a 9.5 century in EI Paso in 1939, but had not reached top form as the 1940 Locust went to press. -4 algmgf' A' of cvffi - j ' , Pipit! 7ffV'5t'-'J , , Q 'i,,.

The pictures on these two pages are reminiscent of that election. Clayton Hiclzerson and Franlrz Buchan- an, two of the men in the race, square off at the left with Prexy Cranford Lundy as referee. lt's hardly necessary to say that neither one of them got hurt in the ensuing fracas. Johnny Reid, the other candidate for office, used one of the funniest cam- paign triclzs in having a cow led around in front of the grandstands at one ofthe football games. A sign on the cow read, This Aint No Bull-Vote for Johnny Reid for Business Manager of the 1940 Locust. The East Texas State yell lead- ers Harland, l'lill, and Treadway came down from the stands fora picture, while Maurice Adams loolzs to see if Reid's sign is a false. Here is a scene of actual voting which tool: place in the primary election.

Bu- chanan was the final victor. ln the first picture you can plainly see that Betty Coed advocated that the stu- dent body elect Buchanan as Business Manager. Franlz and two of his coed campaign managers are shown with the sign. The day of election Reid and Buchna- an stood at the door of the polls and weighted all prospective voters down with campaign material. Buchanan is in the act ol distributon, while Reid, with an expectant smile, is awaiting his turn. LeRoy Neal, Clinton Windham, Win- fred Miller, Henry Weldon Moore, and others are shown voting in the run-off. Bert Roberts and Ray Lawrence were in charge of this booth. Just what Lawrence is doing there we can't imagine. P. K. Rogers is shown at the right just as he has completed a pass. Rogers was one of the best baclzfield men of the Lions' season. Viviene Davis is shown in the Locust otfice in her duties as one ol the assist- ants to Mr. .lohn Hart in the publicity department. At the moment she is in what you might call a mirthlul mood. Dr. Butler supervises one of the elec- tion polls to see that the candidates don't campaign around the polls. Prexy Lundy and Student Council Member Day Cameron are conducting this box.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS The traditional Christmas Carol Service was held this year in the Education building auditorium, with Maury Jones, new member of the college music faculty, in charge. The program opened with the vested choir coming down the aisles singing a carol, then turning and marching baclrz to the baclz of the auditorium, where they remained to lead the group singing. A beautiful feature of the program this year was a Christmas dance directed by Miss Gertrude Warmach, using girls from her modern dance class. The first group of nine to come out is shown in action at the right. After this group ol nine had seated itself at the left of the stage, a group came down the stairway at the baclz of the stage. This scene is at the lar right. immediately below that picture can be seen Raenell Denton, who did the solo portion in the dance. Behind her is the same group of angels who has faced baclz up the stairs, and is lzneel- ing. Lighting the candles on each side of the stage were Hazel Harland, shown in this picture, and Mary Louise Jordon. After they had lit each candle, John Allen read a verse of scripture from the Christmas story. i -'Y' , , . ft, 'W Vo .. --w.t..lf' ffg.l,x.-wr I , 'lt' Q' 8 'ml Cunningham in his Kansas sweat suit, as he tallzed in a very friendly manner with anybody that had anything to say. sin-st GLENN CUNNINGHAM VISITS EAST TEXFTS STATE Brought to the college as one of its lyceum attractions this year was Glenn Cunningham, the famed Kansas miler.

JANET WAGGENER PAUSES long enough to have her picture snapped by the photographer. One ot the nicest people on the campus this year, Janet hails from Paris. Sideline coaches Josie Wilson and Diclz Elliot watch the final football game ol the year in progress. Josie had been temporarily benched, while Diclz was hurt seriously during the first game of the season, and did not get to play any more.

The ln- terlraternity Council from North Texas State visited the campus aslzing lor good will, while at the same time the dormitory boys hung out such signs as shown in the next two pictures. Bill White, P. P. Priddy, and Jess Carroll made a trip to Denton, yes, in that same car, and tool: their whitewash bucket along. The student body paraded in the downtown section. There are three different views ot the parade on this panel. Here are two scenes of East Texas State Club Council Forum people talhing with the Denton Council.

PRESS CLUB ENTERTAINS THE FOURTH ESTATE FROM SAN MAR- CUS-members ot the East Texas State Press Club entertained with a banquet on the night of the Commerce-San Mar- cos football game, and had as invited guests members ol the journalism clan from Southwest State Teachers College. Paul Boggs, John D. Stoclzton, Louise Byrns, Loren Cato, and Judy McClain are shown at one section of the table, with President Whitley in the left rear, and President of the Press Club Otha Spencer between Byrns and Cato. Editor of the '39 Locust, Loren Cato came baclrz especially for the San Marcos game. The three people at the left end of the table are representatives of the San Marcos visitors. Kathleen Jennings foots the table, while Mary Mcl'lam and Leon Rutland may be seen at the front left. Viviene Davis can barely be seen beyond the tip of Judy McClain's hat, which served as a temporary screen of all others on her side of the table. President and Mrs. Whitley, Mr. and Mrs. John l lart, are heading this section of the table. Training School member Billie Abernathy is at the left, while on up the table you can see Rebecca Stuart and Ford Hall. Mary Green's baclrz is to the camera, while Avis Emory is at the right. You can barely see Pharene Vinzant at the edge of the picture, with Raymond Cameron peelzing over her hat. PROFESSOR JOHN HART TOOK HIS JOURNALISM CLASS to the' Commerce Journal oFFice one day to observe a newspaper in the raw. Louise Byrns seems terribly afraid ol the linotype, aslzing Mrs. Staley Mc- Brciyer to protect her. Nancy Smith Boze, Paul Boggs, and Viviene Davis lool: at a linotype as a linotype should be loolzed at. Red Knox watches Roy Clarlz at the Journal's new monotype machine. The journalism class watched this machine as it turned out line rules by the dozens. Red is holding the long line ol type as it came from the machine. Ray Lawrence is being bid a happy birthday by Franlz Buchanan, Wilbourne Hensley, and Clayton Hiclzerson. Ain't we all having lun? The Locust office cat, who came calling on the stall, only to climb all over the typewriter in his journalistic tendencies. Sitting there for hours upon hours at a time, Puny, as he got to be called, amused himself by riding baclz and forth, bach and forth, on the carriage of the typewriter. He lived on a diet ol rubber cement and flash bulbs fused onesl, but Puny, alas, he disappeared. He was such cr lovely cat. This picture is put in here just to show some arty photography of the editor's. This is Louise Byrns, with the sunlight streaming in at the window on her hall-turned lace. Lights and Shadows you might call it. People have called it other things. .... A section of the crowd at one oi the baslzetball games in Whitley Gymnasium. Yell Leaders Stone, Harland, Treaclway, and Hill are up leading the applause to the tune ol one of the band's ditties. Well, well, there's Bert Roberts, Starhey, and Dub James up there together. And Mary Green and Avis Emory, the old publicity hounds, are standing up on the top row to attract attention to themselves, no doubt. five- Doyle Strange leads this procession ol students up the Library steps. That's Arthurine Self behind Doyle at the left. And this, dear Frans, is an impersonation of the head of the Music Department. A mus- tache is obligingly supplied by some Feminine hand, while some masculine extremity holds down the chin so the pearly teeth can show. The impersonator, as you might imagine, is noted for such-Johnson and Hitler are his specialties. This picture was made by the editor of the San Marcos annual alter the East Texas State-San Marcos football game. The scene is Leon Rutland's living room. Avery Mcflurg is dancing with the president of the Press Club at San Marcos, while Otha Spencer and Neil Sims are cheela to cheela. .Y xf Sara Blaclz and Jimmie Kilmer, very good friends indeed, and Hellon Reece, all of Greenville, are on the way to class in this picture.

WUXTRA, WUXTRA, EAST TEX- AN ON TRIAL FOR LIBEL-Editor Leon Rutland of the East Texan was sued this year for libel by Raymond Rott Cameron, fora little article, ap- pearing in This Weeh Column, accusing the aforesaid Mr. Cameron of going to the Century Room in Dallas and drinlz- ing two highballs. The top picture shows Judge John Hart listening to the empaneling of a jury. Louise Byrns is in the witness stand an- swering the questions. On answering in the affirmative to the question: do you have scruples against people who drinlz, Miss Byrns was turned down by the at- torney for the defense, Mr. Robert Varley. Here is the attorney for the plaintiff, Mr. Ford Hall, reading the complaint to the jury. Gwyn Scott acted as foreman of the six man and woman jury, and other members who decided the verdict in favor of the plaintiff were Betty Big- gers, Franlz Tanzy, Clara Lee Pharr, Vir- ginia Belle Balzer, and Jenny Jennings. Judge Hart listens attentively for any errors in the plaintiff's attorney's ques- tioning of Kathleen Jennings. You might recognize the baclzs of the heads of de- fendant Leon Rutland, and attorneys for the defense Otha Spencer and Robert Varley. The front row of the jury seems to be in a state of lethargy about the whole thing. MISS MARY BOWMAN ACTS AS CHARACTER WITNESS FOR CAM- ERON-after several instances of char- acter maligning in the Cameron vs. the East Texan trial, attorneys forthe plain- tiff called in several character witnesses one of which, Miss Mary Bowman of the English Faculty, is shown at right. The trial at this point got very interesting, and the war of words which tool: place between Miss Bowman and Attorney for the Defense, Robert Varley, was one of the highlights of the weeh's trial. The guy with the ears on the front row, right, is the plaintiff, while one of his attorneys, Lynn Fuller, is at his right. Here is a view of the crowded court- room. Ditterent points of view can be gotten from the different expressions on the spectators' faces. Editor Rutland probably expresses the most worry- and with due cause- as he was left holding the bag by having to pay oft with malted millzs. Gordon Moore is amused about the whole thing, while the Tooanoowes grouped together in de- fense of Mr. Cameron's character, since one of their club sisters was vitally con- cerned. Also to be seen are Mrs. Staley McBrayer, Judy McClain, Othell Joch- son, John D. Stochton, Joyce Dyer, Bowden White, and Hulon Fox. Plaintiff Raymond Cameron stands and waits For the courtroom crowd to File out ot the room before tahing his leave. Elene Thevenet, hand over mouth, seems shocized about something, and Joyce Dyer, in door, waits to come into class. PUMPKIN PIE, TURKEY, AND CASTOR OIL-it must be Thanksgiving.

Roommates Barbara Verner and Clovis Barber spread their beds in the morning, and go downstairs in preparation for cleaning up the house. Clovis talzes over the electric cleaner, while Barbara dries the dishes and puts them away in the pantry. After cleaning up in the mornings, the girls set the table for lunch, and sit down together with their sponsor, Miss Anna Maxwell, who stays at the house all year. Many times in the evening young men come to call, and the girls and their dates enjoy games in the living room. Left to right are Ellisue Barber, Edwin Low, Barbara Verner, Grace Traughber, Joffre Hendriclzs, Clovis Barber, Helen Sue Blaloclz, and Eugene Johnson. Leading this group of students down the wall: are John .laclzson and Walter Merle Cone. Miss Erances Potts, director of the dormitory, whose hobby is collecting fish and studying prehistoric animals, talaes Mary Beth Mason and Asa Lee Walters into the living room of her beautiful private apartment in the dorm to show them some of her latest acquisitions. ROOM SCENES IN THE NEW EAST DORM FOR GIRLS-a man editor has gotten to traverse the halls of the girls' dormitories before, to the cry of Man on Secondl, but this year since the photographer was a girl, she simply went about talaing the dormitory pictures of the girls just about as she found them. At left Vivian l'lelms, Evelyn Canterbury, Vera Mae Meadows, Billie Gallman, and Effie Young were right in the midst of after- noon studying, when the editor found them, so with a little rearranging, their picture was snapped. A bridge game was in progress in Alice Adams' room, with Jean Slzeens and Jane Norris playing Susan Sanders and Alice Adams. Dorothy Dralze lzibitzes. -l'hat's right, Alice, play your ten. Alice's room rates as one of the prettiest in East Dorm. These industrious girls are malzing use of the wash rooms to rinse and iron their clothes. Dorothy Crawford, Evelyn Long, Evelyn Underwood, and Doris Crawford, left to right. N MORE EAST DORMITORY SHOTS- the editor, in traipsing through the dormitory halls, found these girls in a feminine version of a bull session. Mary Beth Mason seems to be the center of interest at the moment, while Gladys Young says to Doris Heath, Have a piece of candy. Others on the bed are Angela Rotundi, Mary Ella Lee, and Betty Jean McCoy. Just whether Anita Johnston is laughing at the picture of Roomie Helen Herring's best beau, or at something else, is hard to tell at the moment, but anyway we are sure that those are Texas State College for Women and Texas A8:M pennants on the wall. fif- a Roomie Billie McHenry obligingly fixes Janet Waggener's hair. That's also them in the mirror, to be ungrammatical. The attractive sun porches were empty that particular after- noon, so the editor called out quite a group of girls, and started something in the form oi a bridge game. Anita Johnston and Charlcie Ray are studying in the baclaground, while Mary Earl Calhoun watches Angela Rotundi, Helen Herring, Virginia Fulcher, and Dormitory President Mary Bigger play outa hand. 295 A group ol the dormitory girls gathered on the Floor preceding their Christmas party. Little Arthur Ferguson and Little Sammie Whitley, as Santa Claus called them, can be seen on the floor with the girls. Santa's assistants, Elizabeth McNutt, Carolyn Wester, Bob Knight, and Aerlyn Hatter, are shown loolging around for the girls whose names are on the gift tags. The dormitory presented each girl with a beautiful bottle of perfume. Assistant Dean of Men .l. G. Smith was the realistic Santa Claus. THE CHRISTMAS SOCIAL SEASON-a lull round of parties given during the pre-Christmas holi- day season was started by an afternoon wassail party given by Miss Hubbell and Miss Potts, at Miss Hub- bell's apartment, for the heads of the campus organi- zations. Some of the callers during the afternoon shown in the top picture were President ol the Student Council Cran- ford Lundy, Business Man- ager of the Locust Franlrz Buchanan, Sports Editor of the Locust Clayton Hiclaer- son, Kernel Klub's Hubert Kyser, and Assistant Editor of the East Texan Mary Green.

POTTS HANGS UP HER STOCKING-and lo, and behold it got filled. Candy, nuts, and what-have-you were found on the beautiful mantel in the dormitory lounge, stuffing a stoclaing full. The mantel was dec- orated with holly and shining candles. Subdued girls suclzing on lollipops, holding the gifts they have just gotten on the Christmas tree. The East Dormitory also entertained during the Christ- mas season with a tea to which all the girls in the col- lege were invited. Bob Knight introduced the guests to Miss Potts, and she presented them to the rest of the receiving line-Mrs. Shipley, Mary Bigger, Carolyn Wester, Aerlyn Hatter, and Kathleen Jennings. Pouring tea in the lounge were Marguerite Cato and Nannette Kennedy. Durelle Clark is calling at the mo- ment.

James Handley ot Greenville is carrying the ball. ln the baclzground can be seen the West Dormitory and a corner of the Science Building. STARS FELL ON ALABAMA-and snow tell on Commerce, three times during the winter! ln tact, students got so used to seeing the white, ilalzy stuff, that one smart guy craclzed that he was thinlzing about going to Finland to get away from it all. Some industrious souls got busy immediately to build, or construct, or roll together, or whatever you do, a snow man, and immediately no one has any idea what all began to iloclz to it. Here in this picture, tor instance, you can see Othell Jaclason getting chummy with the old bird by putting her hand through his arm, while Mary Green and Jean Green fno lain, contrive to put a Scotch cap on his head. 1 , c , - ' WW? -5 sf A A 'dr il' X-M---an . .M , A A nil' KV ,,,. yy-f TRACKSTERS who are prominent on the East Texas State team are shown in this panel.

Ramsay is particularly noted For the position ol his mouth when he talzes a hurdle. Three Louisiana boys, yas suh, on the traclfz team: Martin, Elliott, and Blachwell. They call Tallulah, Olla, and Covington their respective homes. LINED UP in one, two, three fashion are these girls on the Ferguson Auditorium stage in order for the judges to piclz one to represent East Texas State at the Cotton Bowl ball in Dallas. Madge Chapman, wearing the number one, was selected for the honor. The other girls, left to right, are Margaret Robbins, Mary Lou Norris, Barbara Cowling, June McAllister, Marguerite Cato, Pauline Draper, Lelloine Ragland, Aerlyn Hatter, and Elizabeth Sanders. This lovely picture of the swans was made in the grounds ot one of the royal summer palaces just outside of Stochholm, Sweden, by Miss Julia Hubbell. The picture of Miss Hubbell was made in the grounds ot another royal palace-this one in Oslo, Norway.

Miss lna l.ee Foster, shown at the left at her deslz, was made Direc- tor of the house. Miss Foster assigns worlz to the girls living in the cooperative house, in addition to other duties. ln one of the rooms, Mary Marie Randall reads part of her bool: out loud to Milo Haley, who seems very amused about it. We wonder why, she was read- ing Anthony Adverse. Two other dor- mitory girls also listen in. Mary Kate Lassiter, and Mary Ben- ton Moore loolz over a lesson which they must have in common. Mary Kate's room is always one of the cleanest in the West Dormitory, it is whispered. Mary Benton brought all those boolzs in. THE WEST DORM MUST LIKE MUSlC-because every picture in this panel shows some of the girls either lis- tening to or mahing some hind oi music. Janette Russell and Mary Merle Leatherwood sit downstairs in the recep- tion room to read the latest edition oi the paper and listen to the cabinet radio. This radio is lzept on most of the time by some girl in the house. Quite a few oi Mr. Waller's musicians live in the cooperative house, and some- times, they say, the din is awful. Oleta Johnson is calmly listening to Juanita Haram, Dorothy Mullins, and Alma Adams, so this harmony must be all right. It really should be a pretty good string trio: that's a violin, viola, and cello they're playing. Many times the girls gather around the piano in the reception room to har- monize on some oi the oldest and latest tunes. With Fay Jean Cranford and Ruth Harvey at the piano, Milo Haley, Edith Bert Terry, Gwendolyn Head, Helen Connor, president oi the West Dorm, Alma Adams, and Jewell Cantrell swing out on the latest popular number. 'Au iq.

Franlz was really asleep here, and doesn't hnow to this day that his picture was made. Whether seriously contemplating whether to wear shoes to class for a change, or just in a complete state of exhaustion, it is hard to tell. Because just loola who these boys are: Homer Fuller, Josie Wilson, Bob Carpenter, and Bulldog Lightfoot. , ' 2 . V , 54 . .::,.,, . - . 1: ' ,Q-'Q1!':s'v'. . 2 - +V,-:'.-: , J ,N all QQ.

W Wil if 8 n 'Li E.-Fzfi , 1 HEEL HlTl.ERl-and we do mean heel, was the cry on every hand the night of the Finnish relief program, when Hiram Good in the person of Adolph Hitler acted as Master of Ceremonies. Good, resplendent in trench coat, boots, swastiho arm bond, sliched down hair, ond mustache, goose-stepped in between guards. Wanting some flags to dress up the baclzground, the committee couldn't find any Nazi flags, so used the Texas Under Six Flags thot belong to the training school. tliliill' impersonating Roy J. John- son, head of the music depart- ment, is John Allen, all dressed up in striped pants and froclz coat. Johnson has just received a telegram fseen in the picture floating from the toblej in- forming him lt's o girl, and he feels faint. The table was Johnson's podium, but it got so wobbly that two of the storm troopers had to hold it. Waterloo Junction might well be the title of this picture. Papo Elizabeth lVlcNutt tries to collect all hisn brood at the railroad sto- tion, in the stunt given by the Morpessos at the Finnish relief program. Mary Rodgers is showing off ot the left, while Bette Denton worries us with her hair down over her eyes. W if ' IAQ The Friars presented a swing quartet as its contribution, composed of Roy Hanchey, Bill Narromore tin the baclzgroundl, Charles Sheppard, and Howard Noland. WOULDST THOU KISS?-Nita Fly is saying to Mary Cecil lrwin in the Les Choisites presentation of Pyramus and Thisbeu in the Finnish show. These girls are showing the gentle art of malzing love through a chinlz in the wall fa doughnutj. Given in costumes, and read from what sounded lilze the Shakespeare text, this stunt was one of the highlights of the whole evening. Helen Herring as a lion, tail and all, nearly stole the show. Bob Crabb marched behind the speal2er's platform and de- livered a nigger precrcher's ser- mon on behalf of the Artemas -not for their benefit, it is hastily added. At this dra- matic moment Crabb is de- scribing the debbil coming down from heaven in a chariot. He has things slightly mixed up here, but then it was all for Finland. At the end of the program Herr Hitler tore his swastilza armband off, and saluted the American flag, as the Eastexans played the Star Spangled Banner. It was a most impressive close to a very entertaining evening. Sigue! The Podunlz Sisters, hillbillies extraordinary, were presented by the Tooanoowes and Kalirs. Billie Burlze, Mary Mcl-lam fwho in- troduced all the others as her sistersl, l'lellon Reece at the piano, Carolyn Mallory, and Ethel Treadway, are shown singing Come and Sit by My Side, Little Darlin' with ap- propriate gestures.

It is here vigorously denied. Those at worlz when the picture was made are Stone, Treadway, Teague, Weatherford, Saye, and Scroggin. Watching a golf game in front of the boys' dorm. i i PLAYS, HNGERPRINTING, PARTIES, and COWS are featured on this page. The plays are Spring Dance, with Mildred Baxter, Jewell Stewart, Pat Pope, doing a dance, and Paulee Martin, and You Can't Talze It With You, top scene showing .lohn Allen as grandpa saying the blessing, and below hero and heroine Pope and Aerlyn Hatter. Both plays were given by Miss Webster's players during the summer session. The fingerprinting was done by service fraternity Alpha Phi Omega lor the Federal Bureau of Investigation. While the parties are Mardi Gras, given by the French Club, showing Miss Lutz crowning the lzing, and couples An Alexander, Billy Soclzwell, Virginia Mays, and Otha Spencer, and the Halloween party given by the Speech Department at Miss Webster's home. The large group picture was made at the latter. The cows are those being judged by the class in dairying. Mr. Rix, head of the agriculture department, is in charge. ah - -ef M 4. .. Y .5 uk, 5 ,ah S Ulm -'1uu.s:- . This picture is of .lim Huntley as he came down from his solo flight. By the time the Locust is due to come off the press every member of the club is supposed to have completed solo worh. Two people who were originally scheduled to fly, Joe White and Ernie Young, have been grounded for technical reasons. At right several students visiting the airport examine the plane which is now being used by the student flyers. It is a last year's model. Plans are being laid to continue the students who are now tahing the flying course in an advanced course next year, and to start many more students in the beginning year. EAST TEXAS STATE TAKES TO THE AlR-with the addition of a govern- ment-sponsored air course to its curriculum, East Texas State literally tool: to the air this year, with twelve of its students tahing a pre- scribed air course. Forming a flying club due to their activities, the mem- bers are shown at left: Front row, Roy Fling, Cas An- drews, Bart Wiggington, sec- ond row, Rufus Atlzinson, Charles Cain, Jim Huntley, Ernie Young, top row, G. C. Corley, Charlie Morris, Gwyn Banfzs, and James Handley. Gwyn Banlzs, the only feminine member of the club, is pictured standing by the plane as it stands in front of the hangar. Roy Fling is the first stu- dent to solo, and is con- gratulated on coming down by instructor Howard Nay- lor. A picture of the new plane which the class used for a time. The flying club gathers around a mop to listen to some piloting explained by one of the ground course in- structors, T. T. Broun. Those talzing the flying course have to pass many subjects in the ground course -on piloting a course, air currents, all sorts of atmos- pheric conditions, charting a course, instrument flying, and other things in addition to their regular instruction in actual flying the plane. Besides Naylor, the other flying instructor is A. A. Severshy. T ts.f3 FRESHMAN PAGE-during the activities of freshman weelz on the campus, that class elected some few members of its class to several honors. Pictured above are: top left, Juanice Johnson, highest scholastic achievements of the class. Top right, Kathryn Spencer, most popular girl in her class. Center, left and right, are the boy and girl selected as the best musicians in their class: Jaclz Andrews and Durelle Clarlu. Bottom left is Evelyn Underwood, freshman editor of The East Texan, and Jim Middleton, most popular boy of the freshman class. Virginia Mays, in circle, was Freshman beauty. President Billy Oliver presided over all freshman activities. I -tw fy' ,. Askuggssv A CAMPUS SCENE FROM THE SCIENCE BUILDING WINDOW. This picture was made on just an average day to show all the cars and activities. On down the left hand side, we see Mary McHam tallzing some boy's arm off, J. L. Hyde cleaning up in the library building, and Max Gene Nohl, deep sea diver, who came to East Texan State on a lyceum trip. Down the center: the faculty sits on the sidelines to root for its members who played in the baslzetball game on Freshman stunt night. During a time out, the faculty team is refreshed with cold drinlzs, alcohol rubs, and stretchers. Huggins and the faculty team sit down right in the middle of the game to enjoy a game of jaclas. A scene from the play presented at a lyceum by the Pollard Players. The Continental Singers, another lyceum attraction. Down the right hand side: Marryin' Sam performs a ceremony on Sadie I-lawlzins' Day. Trimming the hedges, picking up an East Texan, and Nohl leaving after his lecture. ...TRHINING SCHOOL.. T. T.
