Beoutiful inside and out is our new school Cafeteria, first offered in the fall of 1958. Here the snow covered patio offers a sheltered recreational area for a bit of guarded winter fun; also Tigerland's expanse of glass discourages old fashioned snowballing. PAY DAY. Mrs. Ann Bender, new bursar of the school funds since mid-year, and Mrs. Margery Lane, secretary to Mr. Spenner, hand out monthly checks to our high school custodians Sam Shores, Harry Burgess, and Ike Darnell. 5 THEIR HAPPINESS—SCHOOL AND HOME. Superintendent George Spenner ond his wife Della, a sixth grade teacher, are completing fifteen years in the Guymon community. They have shared and helped to solve many of our school problems, both as parents and teachers, having had two daughters graduate from GHS. Now they envision the kind of schools they would like all Guymon boys and girls to have, the same kind of schools they would choose for their own small grandchildren, Mark and Beverly Jan Sizelove. future 'Zfe z% 8 SEE OUR NEW EQUIPMENT. Mrs. Peggy Costner and Mrs. Louella Howerter, vegetable and salad cooks, display with pleasure their new mechanical potato peeler and dishwasher, part of the new equipment in the Cafeteria kitchen. REAL HOME COOKED FLAVOR. Moving rapidly through the lunch line, Tigerlanders pick up plates heaped high with Mrs. Emma Keezer's succulent vegetables and Mrs. Dessie Baker's savory meats. Mrs. Baker is a veteran of four years service; Mrs. Keezer has completed two years. MORE THAN LUNCHES. Cooks at Tigerland's mod- ern new Cafeteria, including pastry cook par excel- lence Mrs. Mable Music, in addition to more than 6000 lunches per month have served a number of special suppers and banquets this year—the Ameri- can Education Week Chili Supper, the Big Red Chili Supper, the Faculty Christmas Dinner, the Senior Pizza Party, and the Junior-Senior Banquet this spring. LIKE PATIO DINING. Cubs and Tigers enjoy the al fresco effect of lunching within glass walls. Mrs. Ozella Reed, din- ing room custodian, stands beside the ice water dispenser, a new piece of equip- ment. 9 't ere 4%e t e '%u uUcutt4, EYES ON THE CHILD. The fond regard which Principal Harold Hunnicutt and his wife Jean, a former school secretary, bestow on their Holly Beth, age three, is carried over into Mr. Hunnicutt's daily approach to his job as principal of Guymon Senior High. He fosters and guides his students and faculty toward a larger reali- zation of education's chief goal, the totally adjusted child-into-odult. This year is Mr. Hunnicut's third as principal. Three others were spent in our schools os a classroom teacher. 10 cikcC t e AFFECTION FOR ALL. Seven grandchildren and two grown daughters are not too many to share the warm feeling for young people possessed by Central Junior High's Principal Mark Alden and his wife Alma, a second grade teacher.

Miss Margaret Wright's State Champion Drivers put o little spit-and-polish on their spring of '58 trophies. Jim Mans seems staggered, as usual, by the magnificence of the sky-scraping State cup. Carl Nicholas and Robert Buster display the Regional and District Championship trophies won at Stillwater and Beaver driving contests. Other members of the group ore Patty Enns, Kay Krone, Barbara Neos, Robert Buster, and Froncie Remmel.

Pat is a senior co-cheerleader, El Tigre staffer, and choir member. Birdie shines os a triple sports star with a three year record in Senior High. NOVEMBER 1959 .Vm 44.

TURN OVER A NEW LEAF. Ready to watch the old one out and the new one in are January favorites Bernita Webb and Eddie Starkey. A swing pianist very popular with Tigerland audiences, Bernita has a flare for drama too, as does Eddie. She is a member of NHS and has given two years of service to the principal's office. Eddie combines a downtown job with a full schedule and such activities as Mu Alpha Theta, choir, and sports editing on El Tigre staff. Vijf “Pontcf BETTER LATE Our New Year's Party was scuttled by the holiday snows, but early in January the party committee put to- gether a Pizza Party we'll long re- member. Mr. Gene Jackson, a new teacher at mid-year, a graduate of OSU and a commissioned army of- ficer, proved what a fine sponsor he was going to be. Our Night Club theme provided the back ground for a memorable evening. PAT KLEIN FHA 3,4, Secretory 4; Band 2,3,4.

BARBARA LAY Art 2,3,4. WE HEP UP THE HEAP. A hobby survey among the Class of '59 males revealed that more boys were interested in hot-rods than in girls.

Through Tigerlond's wel- coming doors step o quintet of interesting new Class of '59-ers: two Kansans, Kenny Long and Benny Greene, from Wichita and Oberlin; two Texans, Phyllis Dobbs and Mark Peters, from Gruver and Son Angelo; and a New Mexican, John Jacobs, from Clayton. WE ALMOST GET MURDERED. Senior co-sponsor Mrs. Martin, trapped by those terrible Teen Age Skirts, pre- pares to drop her typewriter on Myrtle Brune and Lois Black, at the some time launching a heavy box of lit books at two other offending letter writing hobbyists, Cozette Bratton and Juanice Rowell. (She keeps her classes small that way). WE ARE COLLECTORS. Very Geisha these girls, Neldo Longbrake and Phillis Cook, with their Japanese embroideries, fons, dolls, and tiny ceramic figurines.

Two of a kind are Mary Jane Powell and David Leazure, February favorites Both were elected to NHS this year, both specialize in poetry, good grades, choir, play acting, and lots of fun. David, who has a daily downtown job, came to Guymon High from Oklahoma City Capitol Hill High. He served os Mary Jane's escort at the Choir Concert in February when she was hon ored os Sweetheart. 34 MARY JANE POWELL, with a three year record of Choir pop- ularity , was honored at the an- nual Choir Sweetheart Concert March 13. DIANA BROWN and KAY KRONE, both faithful mem- bers for three years, were run- ners up. Diana has served as sec- retary-treasurer and ensemble accomponist.

She may run out of gas. EVEN MATH IS FUN. Fred E. Mercer, Jr. who joined the high school faculty in the fall, certainly knows how to make seniors Laurance Wells, Sam Grant, and Bill Shockclford like math. Mr. Mercer, a Southwestern State graduate, is a co-sponsor with Mr. Jackson for Mu Alpho Theta, our hon- orary math club. 37 GLENDA LOVINGGOOD Oklohomo City, Oklohomo 2; T I 4, GRA 3; Ti- gerettes 4; Speech 3; Jun- ior Ploy 3.

Speedy Wolf backs, combined with stalwart defense, gave the Tigers a rough opener against Dalhart in Mem- orial Stadium. Guymon's own forces found the Wolf line soft in the second quarter but repeatedly lost possession to set up their own shut-out. SEPT. 21 GUYMON, 12—HUGOTON, 6. Shaken up by bus mishaps enroute to the game, Guymon's Tigers found themselves at half-time to dig out of a 6-0 deficit and dominate second-half play. The Bengals allowed the Eagles only fifteen plays from scrimmage while counting twice for the Orange and Black. SEPT. 26 GUYMON, 46—BEAVER, 0. With a mastery of play that surprised even staunch Guymon fans, the Tigers over-ran Beaver at every turn to let the Dusters gain scoring position only once in the entire game. In their third tilt of the season the Noblemen held Beaver to 14 yards rushing to the Tigers 302 yards. OCT. 3 GUYMON, 26—WOODWARD, 20. Much to the surprise of the odds- makers and the consternation of Wood- ward fans, Guymon's aallant Bengals came through with a 26-20 win over 128 the vaunted Woodward Boomers. Short on statistics with a meager 166 yards to the Boomers' 377, the Tigers were long where it counted—on the score- board. OCT. 10 GUYMON, 46—ULYSSES, 13. With the strength of iron men, the Guy- mon Bengals moved one notch closer to the O-Kan Conference title by cut- ting the Ulysses Tigers down to size in a 46-13 romp on the Kansas field. Taking over control early in the game, the Noblemen tormented the Kansas Tigers throughout the tilt. OCT. 17 GUTHRIE, 18—GUYMON, 14. After a faltering first half, Guy- mon's pile-driving young Tigers re- covered in the third stanza from a two touchdown deficit to pull within four points of the blistering Guthrie Blue- jays. Twice the Birds stemmed the Tiger tide in pay territory, but the clock gave the Bengals their final knock-out punch. OCT. 24 GUYMON, 28—LIBERAL 6.

Coming from behind in the third quarter to tie the see-saw tilt at 6-6, Guymon's Bengals gave way to the win- ning counter in the fourth period and went down to defeat on the Goldbugs' field. The Bengals forced the Bugs to grind out their touchdowns play by play on the ground. NOV. 7 PERRYTON, 50—GUYMON 14. Scoring twice in the first six minutes and then continuing the on- slaught with five more tallies, the Perryton, Texas, Rangers ran rampant in Memorial Stadium to hand Guymon's Bengals a devastating 50-14 defeat be- fore 2,000 chilled and wind-blown fans. Guymon's face-saving scores came late in the second quarter and again in the fourth. NOV. 21 CLINTON, 38—GUYMON, 8. With the Midas touch, the Clinton Red Tornadoes coined gold at every turn to rack up 30 points and demoral- ize the Tigers in the first half. Tiger grit held the Cyclones to a mere 12 yards rushing while the Bengals col- lected 243 yards in the second half, but the damage was done. NINE YEAR RECORD NOW 52-2-37. An up- and-down seoson with six wins to five losses brings Coach Dick Noble's five year record at Guymon High to 27-1-24. Fielding only five senior regulars.
