The country has suf- fered financial reverses. Many people have lost their fighting spirit. Under your leadership the old college has gone forward in its work. Scholarship is high, vic- tories are numerous and the spirit of Howard Payne is undiminished. As you leave the campus for your homes and places of work resolve to search out other fine young men and women to take your places. On behalf of the faculty, the trustees and the great Howard Payne family around the world, we congratulate you. THOS. H. TAYLOR DEAN OF MEN Mr. O. E. Winebrenner, Professor of Science in Howard Payne College, has proved himself a valuable asset to the institution. Mr. Winebrenner, the sympathetic advisor to the men about the school at heart. In his time here in the college he has contributed greatly to the school. He has built the department of science year by year and has added in the past the museum which he is improving constantly. He has assumed with grace the task of Chapel Attendances and has worked constantly on the improvement of the methods of handling which the school may rejoice. Although the department of science is a laborious task Mr. Wine- brenner finds time to take an active part in the Boy Scout work of the city as well as many other civic enterprises. In the Luncheon Clubs the townspeople. DEAN OF WOMEN Miss Eula Haskew has in the years she has been in Howard Payne College endeared herself in the hearts of all with whom she has come in contact. As Dean of Women she has always been an inspiration to those under her care as well as a competent advisor. They have found her patient and willing to help them with all their problems. Though outside of the department of English she has many responsibilities which consume much of her time, her work in the English department has been successful and efficient. In her relationship with the students she knows no individual but is giving not only of her knowledge in the subject which she teaches but is giving to those under her direction the lessons of life which will build Christian character into the lives of the men and women of the future. Regardless of the occasion Miss Haskew has always been able to cope with the situation and meet the problem squarely. With the members of the faculty she is a friend and councilor. She has established herself in the hearts of all who know Howard Payne College. Always shall those who come in contact with Howard Payne feel the spirit of the school in the life of Miss Haskew and she shall be their friend. BOARD OF TRUSTEES Thomas H. Taylor, A. B., A. M., L.

The most characteristic quality of this association is that they have never sponsored any move that has been for anything but for the advancement of the college, or the student body. Qualifications for the student officers are that to become the president the stu- dent must be in the graduating class. Other officers of the student body are Vice- President, Secretary, Editor of The Lasso, Business manager of The Lasso, Editor of The Yellow Jacket, Business Manager of The Yellow Jacket, and Head Yell Leader.

Havins, A. B., A. M. - Professor of Sociology Cleo McChristy, A. B., A. M. - - Professor of English Professors Havins and McChristy are the publication advisors for The Yellow Jacket, weekly publication of the student body, and The Lasso, the annual published by the Senior Class. Professor Havins advises with the business managers of both publications as to the business and advertising policy that they should follow. Budgets are brought to him for the final checking, contracts are discussed with him, and faculty criticism is made through him to the publications. Miss McChristy determines with the editors of both publications the editorial policies to be followed in the course of the year. Miss McChristy has the final check upon copy to go into either publication. With the co-operation of these two advisors the publications have grown into the field of practicality. THE LASSO 1932 After working for three years on the publica- tions of Howard Payne College, Oswald Daughety was selected as Editor of The Lasso. He has stu- died the annual very carefully and with his busi- more engravings than any book heretofore. The book also stands out as one of the largest books in the history of the school. During the summer months he worked with Howard Scott, the artist for this Lasso 1932, on the motif and unity of the Brooke D. Smith accepted the position of Busi- ness Manager of The Lasso after having been the Forensic Manager for two years. Brooke has made an impression upon all those who he has come in contact and with this in mind he was selected by the student body to take over the responsibility of putting the book over in a big way financially speaking. Thus far he has done his part and has made a splendid effort in selling advertising. THE LASSO 1932 The Editor of The Lasso is very grateful to following persons for the services that they rendered in order that this book might be bigger and better: Muzelle Stanley Lamar Floyd Gerald N.

For the last five years the athletic department of Howard Payne has been turn- ing out some of the strongest teams in the Southwest. Three Texas Conference Foot- ball Championships, one Football Co-Championship, and four times Track Cham- pions is the boast of the Athletic Council. J. H. “Cap” Shelton, for many years connected with the athletic department of the college, has been the chairman of the Athletic Council for the past five years. Before assuming duties as Business Manager of the college, Mr. Shelton was the freshman coach. For the last four years he has coached the Jacket Track squad to victory and this year promises to place another cup in the Trophy Room. Coach Joe Bailey Cheaney has built three championship machines and one co- champion team during his four years as head coach of football. Coach Cheaney appeals to the best that is in every man that he comes in contact and therefore has turned out teams that play the game together and play the game for the fun of it. Coach Cheaney also coached the Jacket basketball team to the runner-up position. During Cheaney’s career at Howard Payne, Coach McAdoo Keaton has the praise for the much talked about lines that the college has produced in the last four years. Coach Keaton called for the best that was in any man and when the time came for a show-down his men never failed him. Quiet and unassuming he was always working with plays and diagnosing what would be the best way for his line- men to stop attacks. Since the certification of tennis as an official sport in the Texas Conference, T. R. Havins has coached the tennis teams of the college. In the past he has turned out championship men and teams. He has given to these men not the spirit of always to win but to play and play hard for the sport of it. Fred Y. Bell has been the football manager since 1928 and during this time with zeal and worked faithfully for the ease and comfort of the team while they coach the freshman squad. Bob coached his men with patience and instilled into Franklin Stubbs was selected as manager of the Track team and has been fill- ing the job very successfully. With the exception of his possible laziness, Stubbs has worked hard in keeping the wants of the trackmen satisfied.

Starting their stride after this game the Jackets lost their chances of another undefeated cham- pionship. Jellie McQueen and Bull Etheridge did not get to play this game because of injuries received in previ- ous games. Wilburn Underwood Half Jellie McQueen End Bob Hutchinson Half Smoky Lusk Tackle SAINT EDWARDS GAME Making their position more secure for the champion- ship the Jackets defeated the Saints, 6-0. Taking the ball on their own twenty-six yard line, Howard Payne marched up the field and after several attempts, Bob Worley carried the ball over on a tangent play. Out- standing backs for the game were Worley and Masur. Outstanding linemen were Cloninger, Truett Little, and Etheridge. Jake Edwards Tackle Dutch Schuhman Half Brummel Little Fullback Turkey Morrow End TRINITY UNIVERSITY GAME After taking their first Conference defeat, the Jackets pulled in the excess baggage and defeated Trinity Uni- versity, 21-6. In this game the aerial attack of the Jackets was unvieled. Outstanding backs of the game were Hoot, Dean and Worley. Hoot ripped off consist- ent gains at all times and Dean played a high type of football. Worley turned in one of his best games, be- cause of his passes and broken field running. Truett Little Center Frank Stubbs Guard Ted Edwards Center Clyde Dean Half SIMMONS UNIVERSITY GAME The Cowboys boasted that nobody had crossed their hack stripe during the season. This statement was true until the Yellow Jackets invaded Abilene and crossed the Cowboy goal three times and did not permit them to cross the Jacket stripe. This was the biggest upset af the season because it gave the Jackets a chance of fin- ishing as co-champions. Cloninger and Stubbs were the outstanding linemen and Masur, Underwood, and Wor- ley were the outstanding backs. Clayton Hopkins Guard Brad Robinson Guard Red Bragg Reserve John Allen Brock Reserve John D.

Wil- liard Schuhman, Worley, Hutchinson, and Cloninger pushed over the four touchdowns. Williard Schuhman, Sylvan Cloninger, Ted Edwards, J. A. Brock, Vernon Davison, and Rufus Everett close their college football careers this year by graduation. THE VARSITY The loss of seven varsity men by graduation last Spring did not seem to show FRESHMAM SQUAD Under the guiding hand of Coach Bob Bettis the freshman squad won three out of the four games they played. Taking the squad to San Angelo to play the junior college team the Little Jackets suffered defeat early in the season but later beat the junior college boys. Two games were scheduled and played against McMurry College. The two McMurry Outstanding linemen of the season were Bob Sikes, tackle; G. Archer, guard; and Miller, center. Terry was the outstanding backfield man of the freshman squad. BASKET BALL Hilton Gilliam Forward Jake Edwards Guard Turkey Morrow Center Dutch Schuhman FRESHMAN BASKET BALL SQUAD Under the new rules of the Texas Conference, freshman squads are organized in all sports. This year at Howard Payne the basketball squad entered in the sport and scrimmaged with the Varsity every week. During the first part of the season their opposition to the Varsity was rather weak but as the season progressed the slimes gave the Jackets some stiff competition. Much of the honor for the Varsity becom- ing runners-up in the Conference is due to the work of this squad. Several games were played with May High School, Brownwood High School, and other high schools in this vicinity.

Only one man was lost last year but again this year many of the other colleges have some mighty good material. The first meet of the year was held with John Tarleton and the tally was decisively in favor of the Jackets. At a six cornered meet held in Austin between Texas University, St. Edwards University, San Marcos, Southwestern University, Trinity University and Howard Payne College, the Jackets took second place. For second to the University of Texas each time. The Texas Conference Track Meet will be held in Abilene this year with Simmons University as hosts. TENNIS VARSITY TENNIS Upon the graduation of the Canady Brothers from Howard Payne the pros- pects for tennis this year were very slim. teams. The failure to break the ice this year is because of the lack of material. Fields Hines Glynn Raley Ward Smith Roger Chambers The above is the rating of players for this year. The squad still has a chance to prove their ability at the Texas Conference Tennis Tournament which will be held ir. Abilene in conjunction with the Texas Conference Track Meet. VARSITY GOLF The Golf Squad on the campus is the first of its kind at Howard Payne and was organized because of the new Texas Conference ruling. The squad has been working out daily at Dyke Ward’s Public Golf Course and are in fairly good shape for the Texas Conference Golf Tournament which will be held at Abilene with the Texas Conference Track Meet and Tennis Tournament. Coach Joe Bailey Cheaney has coached the squad from the first day and prom- ises a fair representation in the competition at Abilene. Those that will represent the school in the golf tournament are Murray Harper, Robert Lee Worley, and Price McQueen. GIRLS SPORTS Girls sports have been on a steady decline for the past three years on the campus, hut this year some effort was made to restore sports for girls. Classes in physical education were formed soon after Christmas and work begun under the teaching of Coach McAdoo Keaton. Tennis and basketball were included in these classes. Tennis instruction was given by Professor T. R. Havins after noon every day. No contests were held this year as has been done in connection with the two basketball teams that were organized. All courses in girls physical education were dropped soon after the Spring term began. Some indoor baseball was included in the course. PIANO DEPARTMENT Mrs. Pearl Talbot McCulley, Dean of the School of Fine Arts, is one of the most reliable of the Department. She is one of the best pianists in this part of the State and has taught in Brownwood for a number of years.

PUBLIC SPEAKING DEPARTMENT The Public Speaking Department was headed by Mrs. Gladys Schuler Whitney this year. Mrs. Whitney filled the vacancy left by Miss Antoinette Sparks. Having special work under many of the leading public speaking instructors, Mrs. Whitney was capable of the position that she held. She had worked with many Little Theatres all over the country and was well versed in dramatic technique. Ex-Officio Mrs. Whitney became the director of the Howard Payne Players. She directed their fall production “So This Is London.” THE HOWARD PAYNE PLAYERS This season the Howard Payne Players presented one production under the direc- tion of Mrs. Gladys Whitney.

Bohlin, Howard Payne not only had a capable instrumental music teacher, but one who understood ensemble music as well. For the little orchestra leader had had much experience in these two lines of musical endeavor before he came to Howard Payne several years ago. During the past two years Professor Bohlin has been in charge of the band and orchestra work in the college, putting before the public both groups in several knew him, or played under his direction. A more patient and congenial musical director was never made, for his good natured friendly smile to all persons has en- deared him to all who know him. a task, seemingly unsurmountable, as there was an extreme scarcity of material in Howard Payne. Most of it had to be developed. In producing the musical organi- zations that he did, he proved his ability as a musical director of instrumental en- sambles. His work has been a credit to the material he had to work with. LASSO KNOTS Know This Guy? 1 SPIVIS Everybody likes a winner. We do. That’s why we picked this chap to help us out on this page. And he is with a winning school. For many years we have been select- ing for employees young men and women from Howard Payne. We’ve found they always measure up to requirements—and these requirements are pretty exacting. It occurred to us that fine training, by the sort of teachers the school employs might have a lot to do with it. Anyway, since these have all made good, we will keep going to the school for more.
