After the Relay Games came the city meet, an annual affair, which like the Football and Basketball games, determined the championship of the High School Track Teams and here the maroon for the third time demonstrated that even at track, it was best, as when the curtain was rung down, our boys had collected a total of fifty- six points, while South End was second with forty-nine and Central, who had hereto- fore been the so-called leader, was third and last with only about twenty-six points and these were secured by their relay teams. As soon as these were over the District Meet came, and we were third when the events were finished to see how many men each school would send to the State Meet at Austin, as only those winning Hrst places could be entered in the ending we were not so fortunate, but we realize that we're only human and can't win everything. Then Rice had her Annual High School Invita- tion Meet for the Scholastic teams over the State and here again Dallas showed its wares to a distinct advantage, winning first place, but we were in there fighting all the time and again made a favorable showing to end the season, as far as the events possible for the year book are concerned. To those boys who made the year a success, we, 'K'I'he Staff, cheerfully thank in behalf of the student body, though we know that already they have been singularly praised for their good work, so we will take this opportunity before the closing of our l - ll ' -,.

Heights has in every way this year lodged all local competition so decisively that we are City ww Champions in all branches of athletics, even though in Track we were the youngest 0 of those leading competitors. The success of the Track Team lay in the able coaching of Turner, former Aggie Star, who has patiently striven for several years through EE E Q :T U1 FY :', fl N B FD N : C..

Then for the Rice Relays, the real big gs? event of the year in Houston, the carnival Stars of the cinder path from all counties if came to show their wares in collegiate competition. To create an interest among high 5 J schools, also, the directors had scholastic events for those lads who were not yet ready for the faster events of the colleges.

Those who really did the work were the coachesg these big boys worked hard all the while trying to succeed in subduing opponents. Jim Dain, the football coach, was always the one who worked the hardest. If he was not showing the boys some new plays, he was trying to bind them together in an even more friendly spirit, and after football was over, Krichamer kept up the good work until Turner took the fellows over for track. These three men were not appreciated as they should have been. Probably only the closest of friends really were grateful for their work, and this Pennant Staff was the closer of the closest friends and realized their worth more than any one else. Then, too, there were some of the boys, in football, the luminaries were probably, Captain Kennedy, aggressive and brilliant leader, who early in the year was taken from the line-up with a broken foot, only to return for his last game and victory, to bring an illustrious career ranging over four years to a climax. Durham, like Kennedy, closed a four year period and though we are hopeful. we do not think the place left vacant by him will ever be as capably filled. Basketball and Track also had their high lights. Those in Basketball were Garst, the captain, and Dee, flashy guard. Captain Garst, too, closed his career with a victory that meant a season ls success, while Dee will carry on. lVlcCarble and Stonecipher were always the point getters in track.
