There are to be found memories of numerous colorful events, of our many hours of study-filled classes, and of the enjoyable times each of us has had. Our friends and our teachers are also pic- tured here in this PIX. Our championship football team is one that will be remembered for many years to come. The undying spir- it of our players is fully expressed in this picturesque book, along with the unequalled records which are ac- quired by Tiger teams wherever they go. Our band plays again and their flutes “pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone.” Our choir chants melodies that we cannot hear, but tunes that will live forever in our hearts. As the final pages of this book were put on the press, a sincere feeling of satisfaction has crept over the entire staff which was responsible for the production of this book. This annual is the largest ever presented to the students of LRUS, and we feel that it is also the best. We hope you like it, for it has been a pleasure for us to prepare it for you, and in honor of the senior class of 1949. Ray Flack.

Mntfpal THE HOPE OP DEMOCRACY In these days a consensus on any subject is difficult to secure, but on one matter thoughtful people are generally agreed; that is, we Americans have an abiding faith in our democracy. In the great crisis of the Civil War and in the present crucial time when Communism threatens the entire world; it is apparent that the ties of democracy bind us together more closely than do those of any other political philosophy. We, the American people, should be extremely thankful that we had some brilliant and farsighted men at the helm of our nation one hundred and 3eventy-five years ago. After the thirteen colonies fought for their Independence, their leaders presented to the people the foundation upon which a great nation was to be constructed — the Constitution of the United States of America. We had some brilliant and farsighted people as the ordinary average citizens of those first thirteen colonies. They refused to ratify the Constitution until a promise had been made that a Bill of rtights would be added -- an insurance policy for them against any of the leaders who might aspire to dictatorial ways. Those people one hundred and seventy-five years ago gave us the power to choose our own leaders and also gave us all the protections against aggressive leaders. There is no doubt in my mind that the generation represented by the 1949 Senior Class of the Little ftock Senior High School is as fixed in its determination to preserve that document as was the earlier generation to win it. Seniors, you must not surrender any of the privileges that our forefathers gave us in our Bill of Rights and as voters of tomorrow, you must not forget or fail to see the obligation that goes with all the privileges of our democracy. You must not forget that you have a duty, a Job — that job being to participate in your government. It is said that in the recent presidential election, fifty million American people did not cast their vote. If the rights which were given us when this nation was founded are still to be here one hundred and seventy-five years hence, every American must not only take an active interest in politics but he must also actively participate in politics, thereby determining the policies of our government. Seniors, you will soon be participating citizens. To preserve our present civilization we must follow a path of willingness to sacrifice the privileges of a few for the greater good of the many. You may have to give up certain luxuries, certain peaks of ease, which only a few have obtained in the past. Through the pain, blood and death of our Revolution did we establish ourselves as a democracy; and only through courage, patience and a respect for the rights of our fellow men will we be able to maintain our democracy. ■ Barn� , Everett C.

By Pat Walls The South's Most Beautiful High School is the title that Little Rock Senior High School was given when it was built in 1927. Located at 14(X)-16(X) Park, the high school covers four square blocks. The tall, six storv, buff brick structure is reflectet! in the pool where gold fish swim the year round, and the school is surrounded by native pines, oaks, cedars, and a gently sloping ter- race that is green most of the year. Our high school is a home for some 2000 students who are offered courses for college preparation and for vocations. Each year, graduates receive good scholar- ships to outstanding colleges and universities of the na- tion, and many graduates become the political and busi- ness leaders of this community and others over the coun- try. Classes are offered in business education, business mathematics, diversified occupations, algebra, trigon- ometry, physics, foreign languages, and almost any other course to give the student a wide field to prepare for his future. The display cases in our halls proudly hold trophies of our athletic victories, and of our nationally known band, voice, art and dramatic departments. Our Parent Teacher Association is honored as having one of the larg- est mem! erships in the United States and it gives contin- uous active service to our school. Our student council. National Honor Societv. and other clubs and organizations help us to develop our lead- ership, scholarship, character, service, and individual talents. LIIHS has chapters of The Quill and Scroll Society and Key Club, both of which are international organiza- tions. The school has many clubs which appeal to everv student and help him develop mentally, morally, and socially. Our auditorium seats over 2000 people and served our city as auditorium on many occasions until the Robin- son Memorial Auditorium was built. Our auditorium stage is the third largest in the United States and has had many famous scientist, vocalist, actors, lecturers, and celebrities in all fields appear upon it. Our stadium is recognized as one of the best in the country, and our cafeteria is the largest in the state. Our library serves the student body before, after, and during school. Y'olumes of fact and fiction of all sorts may be found in this library of approximately 15.000 volumes. Photographic records of all types are on file and may lx- heard during the day and checked out for home use. In 1947 the recreation hall was built on the campus in honor of our war dead. Here we find social diversion throughout the day and on the week-ends. Each organi- zation in scltool has one member on the Campus Inn Board of Directors who represents them and helps to plan activities for Campus Inn. Assemblies are presented by various groups in school and many outstanding artists have appears! under the sponsorship of the student coun- cil. Students are given a change to display their talents on assemblies. The scholarship of faculty members has aided the progress of the school. The majority of the faculty are members of state and national organizations and partici- pate not only in school affairs but also in city and state activities. Our high school is truly THE SOUTHS MOST BEAUTIFUL HIGH SCHOOL. SENIORS are we It If nine rd L Comes a time in the life of each man for farewell, A farewell to his childhood and all that it means, A farewell to the loud shirt and old classroom jeans, To the sweetheart who ne’er more his heartbeat will swell. Now he hears the last time the old three-thirty bell. And the lockers will bang out his eardrums no more. For the last time he walks through the Physics Lab. door And his heart has a longing which no one can tell, For his eager, young spirit is loath to stand still. His Atomic-age mind ever ready to tear; Hut there's something uneasy on Life’s rugged hill, And that something moves in to possess his mind here. 'Tis the lingering memor)' ever to fill The sad recollections of school days so dear. II. Now we’ve finished exams, and we seem to have passed, Graduation day’s here, all our dreams have come true. Let’s relax and give honor where honor is due And to those who have worked, be it their day at last. Here’s to Pat and Aline, who are first in our class And to Dcmnicr. who holds down the President’s chair. For these leaders so high let the sailing be fair That their fields of achievement be rightfully vast. Let us stroll through the corridors shining so clean With their new coat of paint which conceals our carved names. More trophies of gold in the cases are seen Since our soph days and dreams of our varsity fame. We’ve worked hard in scholastics and made our minds keen; We have tried and we’ve won LR High’s three-year game. III. So a toast to the grad class of forty-and-nine On the wings of success may you soar to the blue; So that college, and business, and love that is true Make your happiness full, leave you naught for to pine. May vour judgement Ik sound, may your influence shine As a beacon for others on Life’s blazing trail So that they be encouraged, while onward you sail To the goal of your lifetime. Then stand as a shrine Looking back on a few score of well-blended years; Being satisfied then as the closing draws nigh. Know the end is approaching to all of your fears. And your dreams will come tme in the sweet by and by. So Ik glad. Fortvniner, when Life’s ending nears To renew the old friendships of Little Rock High.

Pit Staff Young, Martha Lee Ziegler, George Autograph Senior C la55 f tau For their senior play, the class of 1949 presented Charley's Aunt,” a comedy written bv the English play- wright, Brandon Thomas, in the “gay nineties.” The play deals with a college lx y prank, the substi- tution of one of their fellow classmates for the missing aunt from “Brazil, where the nuts come from. The re- sulting complications with their girl friends, their elderly male relatives, not to mention the real aunt who eventu- ally appears, afforded an evening of hilarious entertain- ment. The role of the pseudo aunt, Donna Lucia D’Alva- dorez. was portrayed by David Donoho; Jack, his college friend was played by Allen Heiinan. The other associate, Charley, was played by Charles White and Pat Harrison. The girls' roles were enacted by Margaret Davis as Kitty. Greta Wright as Amy. and Clara Nation as Ela. Joe Peter- carried the role of Jack's father, Mr. Chesney. and Bill Creely was Amv's uncle, Mr. Spettique. The role of the real aunt was shared by Peggy Murrin and Flora Carson. The servants, portaryed bv Jack Calcote. Jerry Baum- garten and Charles White, added even more merriment to the play with their Cockney accents. The entire per- formance scintillated with surprises, colorful costumes, appropriate settings, and clownish antics, plus a very sat- isfactory ending for all the romances concerned. Under the excellent sponsorship of their director Miss Alberta Harris head of speech and dramatics at LRUS, the seniors did a swell job of acting, and one Miss Alberta Harris, Director which we’ll all remember for a long time to come. JJidtory of the (L (add of 1949 Seniors' Travels. A Voyage To Brobdingnag I. “.... traj endeavoring to find some gap in the hedge, when I discovered one of the inhabitants in the nest field, advancing toward the stile. He appeared as tall as an ordinary spire-steeple, and took alxnit ten yards at every stride, as near as I could guess. I teas struck with the utmost fear and astonishment, and ran to hide myself in the com, from whence I saw him at the top of the stile, looking hack into the next field on the right hand, and heard him call in voice many degrees louder than a speaking-trum tet hut the voice was so high in the air, that at first I certainly thought it was thunder. -Gulliver's Travels. During the Christmas holidays, the Tigers, once again State Football Champions, made a trip to New Orleans. There at the Toy Bowl, they played Warren Eastin High and scored 21 against Eastin’s 7. Thus an- other victory was marked up for OUR CHAMPS, the Tiger team. In April the L.R.H.S. Concert Band attended the Tri-State Band Festival at Enid. Oklahoma. In each of the events—marching, concert music, and sight read- ing—the band received a I division rating. More than eighty hands from five states were represented at this festival. After three days of music and marching, the band returned home, tired but proud of their achievements. Haven’t they always been among national champions? Many events stand out in our memory’ of this first year. The basketball team won their fourth state cham- pionship crown. The Girl s Council had charge of Red Cross work, school decorations, and a special assembly for girls. The French classes sent several boxes of food and clothing to a French girl. The Junior Classical League held an exhibit of work done in Latin, had a special Latin breakfast, and gave a tea for mothers of those taking this subject. One of the highlights of the year was the senior play. As we left the performance of Arsenic and Old Lace, we knew we had seen one of the best plays ever to be presented at our own high school. We felt now that we were about to leave our surroundings and, like Gulliver, prepare to make another voy’age in September. What a picture Cullivcr presents of the sophomore class as it entered the new and strange land of veritable giants living in Senior High School! Like Gulliver, we felt upside down and giddy. Each day our imposing surroundings seemed to shrink us smaller and smaller. The graylieard senior giants received us with a real dread, a situation that soon changed to a wonder that such “small heads could carry all we knew. At last, however, their wise counsel and assistance helped us to adjust ourselves to this strange domain, with its elevat- ors that did not exist and its bridges that could not be bought. Our first social activity was a get-acquainted break- fast in the cafeteria, planned by sophomore teachers and our principal. Mr. J. W. Matthews. With Paul Thomp- son acting as Master of Ceremonies, pupils from West Side, East Side, and Pulaski Heights junior High Schools realized that we were no longer rivals, but were friends working together. Many activities helped us to feel at home in high school. We attended noon performances of the Star- dust Club, cheered the glee clubs and A Cappella Choir in their annual performances, yelled with the cheer lead- ers and Bengal Boosters at the football and basketball games. An important part of the pep assemblies was the Pep Band, which was led by student director, Eddie Grady. II. When we, no longer “greenies,” returned to make our second trip through L.R.H.S. in the fall of 1947, we found a new recreation building. For months we con- tinued to call it simply the “Rec Hall.” Then the job of giving it a name presented itself. Several names were submitted by students, among them being. TIGER DEN. WRECK HALL. CAMPUS CLUB, and BLACK AND GOLD. After a vote from each home room, the commit- tee announced that CAMPUS INN was henceforth to be the name. What fun we have had in this hall with its excellent dance fl x r, juke l ox, game tables, and foun- tain! Here we could eat our lunch and go for relaxation and recreation on Friday and Saturday nights. During our junior year, L.R.H.S. was host to the An- nual Journalism Convention. All schools throughout the state sent at least two representatives with sponsors. We watched these students milling around our corridors all day, going to lunch in the cafeteria, and rushing to vari- ous meetings held for different phases of the publication of school papers and annuals. It was during our junior year that Pat Walls took over a project that was to keep her name before the pub- lic for the next two years. She wrote articles every week about school events that were of special importance to the public. These appeared in the Arkansas Gazette every Sunday. This work helped to steer Pat right into QUILL AND SCROLL, an international honor society, to which other outstanding students taking journalism were elected. Shortly after the Christmas holidays, the new cheer leaders were elected by the student botlv. We were thrilled to see in this group some of our juniors. Among them were Steve Bilheimer. Nancy Bylander. Flora Lee Carson, Boh Montgomery, Anne Singer. Boojie Smirl, and Allie Weeks. The Concert Band made another trip this vear. They went to the Highland Music Festival in Dallas. This time, however, the A Cappclla Choir went along to win honors for the vocal music department. La. La. Girls! You will never forget that the Rotary Club brought two French boys to Little Rock. The two young men. Phillippe and Louis, spoke at an all-school assembly. In honor of their visit, the French classes gave a picnic at Campus Inn. Entertainment, food, and con- versation (good high school English) made the party a big success. Unknown talent came to the surface when our class :..ve an assembly for the entire school. The main feature was a one-act play. MINOR DEVELOPMENTS. Star- ring were Don Countryman and Phil Dixon. Supporting them were Grace Block. Bill Cottrell, Nancy Bylander. Henry Fitzgibbon, Bob Hale. Marlin Edgin, and Jim- my Pattillo. During the year, the students of L.R.H.S. attended a style show sponsored by the Pfeifer Department Store in the auditorium. Nearly all the models were chosen from our own group. Clothes of all types were displayed, in- cluding bathing suits, sweaters, school models, and formats. In an awards presentation assembly, Billy Hugh Brown of our class was given the high school division Coif Championship of Little Rock. Not only did he re- ceive thus, but also the State High School Championship. In May the National Honor Society inducted its new members. Officers from our junior class were Sonny Fulk. President; Aline Hight. Vice President; and Doris Carre, Secretary. Other junior members elected were Billy Trigg, Jerry Baumgarten. Margaret Davis. Janice Alexander. Margaret Kinsel, June McCreary, Mary Jane Hemphill. Janice Perkins, Dora Ann Kindervater, Wal- ter Estes. Charles Marrow. Andrew Reigler. Margaret Schamer. Barbara Joyner. Carol Runyan, Richard Moose, John Paul Runyan, and Pat Walls. No student in L.R.H.S. will ever forget the big Bland-Demurer race for Student Body President. Be- ginning their campaigns the latter part of April and ex- tending them into May. the candidates made a fight to the finish. In the end. Bland won the election by a nar- row margin. Also elected were Margaret Davis as Vice President, Dickie Powell as Lower Grade Representa- tive. and Phil Dixon. Upper Grade Representative. The last big event of the school year was the class picnic at Bovle Park. This took place on the same after- noon that the new officers were a non need. Hotdogs, slaw, cokes, and ice cream helped to make the afternoon a wonderful success. After the food ran out. nearly all the students played softball, skated, or pitched horse shoes. Many were wearing their new senior rings (with anticipation), since they had arrived from the jewelers’s that week. This was really a big, big day. With eager hearts we looked forward to the summer vacations. Oh, yes, we even cast our minds to the next September—our senior year. Gulliver would see us then as the graybeard giants. V III. A Voyage To Lilliput when bending my eye downwards as much as I could, I perceived it to he a human creature not six inches high, with a bow and arrow in his hands, and a quiver at his hack. In the meantime. I felt at least forty more of the same kind following the first. I was in the utmost astonishment, and roared so loud, that they all ran back in a fright; and some of them, as I was afterwards told were hurt from the falls they got by leaping from my sides u ton the ground.” —Gulliver's Travels. We were back in school in September. What a start- ling change! Were those little people running around ac- tually students of L. R. II. S.? Why, this was like Gulli- ver’s visit to Lilliput, the land of tiny people. We were giant seniors—at last! In honor of this fact, or something, we noted a pleasing change in the interior of the build- ing. A new coat of paint made everything fresh and bright. The first Friday after the semester began, our trem- endous Tiger Team began another victorious season. Some of our team members that graced the gridiron were John Armstrong. Luther Young. Don Countryman. Tom- my Dunaway, Marlon Edgin, George Oliver,” Bob Updc- graft, and Henry Fitzgibbon. Speaking of Henry, we seniors were very proud of him when he was honored by The Wigwam Wisemen of America, as captain of the All- American high school team. Fitz also was All-American center. At the homecoming game, our lovely Norma Kreko- rian was crowned queen. The color day parade, present- ed the afternoon of the game, was a memorable sight. The senior float. Orchids to the Tigers, won first place. Jack Pritchard, that talantcd drum major, did his fanciest twirling at the Turkey Day game with the N. L. R. Wildcats. Of course, the tigers triumphet!, 47 to 7. Although the A squad did some excellent football playing, we had a B team that deserves more than a little credit. Their coach was student. Edgar Rowe. Wc al- ways think of our managers when we talk about our games. Certain indispensables were our Bill Floyd. Skipper Graham, and Bobby Langston. Our class had officers that were among the l est. Think of President Bill Demmer. Vice President David Donoho. and Secretary Hal Norwood. Margaret Davis received the D. A. R. Good Citizenship award. Other awards made to seniors were for poetry, to Robert Brat- ton, and essay, to Pat Walls, by the American Cancer Society. Everyone had a grand time at the picnic held at Bovle Park. Besides square dancing and eating, eating, eating, we enjoyed a Shakespearean drama given by Allen Heiman. L. A. Fulgham, and Richard Leonard. The S. A. S. G. Conventions was held in Mobile dur- ing our senior year. Phil Dixon, Margaret Davis, Marg- aret Schamer, and Beryl Bland were our representatives. Two seniors we would not want to forget are Billy Penn, President of the Pulaski County Junior Red Cross; and Ray Flack, editor of the TIGER and P1X. Both of them did grand work. Another active senior was Paul Griffin, wno made us proud as the President of Ben- gal Boosters. A new organization appeared on our campus, the Masque and Gavel. This club honors students in public speaking, dramatics, and radio work. Jerry Baumgarten was president. We remember the Western Party at Campus Inn, sponsored by seniors. Everyone—and I mean everyone —came, wearing cowboy clothes and had a gallopin’ good time. Before we knew it a big evergreen tree sprang up right in the lobby, announcing Christmas. The band and A (’appella Choir gave a splendid pro- gram of popular and sacred Christmas music. Speaking of music, we take off our hats to President Homer Bar- rett, Vice President Anne Singer. Secretary Bill Greeley. Treasurer Jewell Hollis, and Business Manager Peggy Keele. After Christmas holidays, we settled down for grind- ing work and much more fun. One of our senior rooms sponsored a Kid Party. Everyone let his hair down, shortened his clothes, ate food, and had a glorious time. The basketball team was living up to our fullest ex- pectations. A game that was really outstanding was the one with El Dorado, where we won, 51 to 27. Our sen- ior players were Don Countryman. Hal Norwood, Wil- liam Laseter, and Bobby Jackson. Both football and basketball are thrilling, but we cannot forget our boxers, Murray Coulter, Dan Peters, Jack Lusby, and Heavyweight Tommy Dunaway. Re- member. too. Jimmy Tribble as an outstanding wrestler. Our track stars were Pat Henson, Cleo Teal, and Don Countryman. Boys will be champions! In February, Career Day was observed. Seniors attended the discussions and interviews by men and women of the city for the purpose of getting help in choosing vocations. We felt quiet grown up as we asked questions and listened. During the remaining months, we seniors were in a whirl of activities. Our spring social was a picnic, of course. The senior play. CHARLEY’S AUNT, was proof that seniors can really act. The Senior Prom on May 20. was a colorful Colonial party, with Tommy Scott’s orchestra furnishing the music. All these senior affairs will live forever in our memories. No—it simply could not be true! But it was. The last week had arrived at Senior High School. In that brief week, the seniors rushed breathlessly through Class Day, Vesper Sen-ices, and Graduation. On the night of June 1. we sat in the stadium with our hearts in our throats and a queer feeling in our stomachs. Aline flight’s record was on the top of the stack. How could one girl make all those A grades? We heard four seniors discuss mighty world affairs before parents and friends. We listened to the choirs and the band—for the very last time. Here we were, hanging to these last moments, as if they were our last ones on earth. We were about to pass from familiar scenes to a mammoth space, a space unknown and untried. At last, it came! One by one, the girls in white caps and gowns and the l oys in navy blue picked up their leaden feet and somehow got across the platform unassisted. We received our diplomas with misty' eyes and sang HAIL TO THE OLD GOLD. We experienced a feeling of un- mistakable gratitude to our teachers, our parents, and our friends. Oh, yes, we had complained about arm- ing to school countless numbers of times, but at this moment we realized that we had loved every minute of it. We were at the end of our most thrilling and prof- itable journey. We were separating, each to follow his beacon on the road of life. Like Gulliver, we were pre- paring to begin a longer and more hazardous journey.

VoodaH J4S, 1948 Another football team has matle histon.- at LRHS, taking their third consecutive championship by copping the “Big Six title. The 1948 season saw many ups and downs including the ending of a 35 game win-streak that had been established in previous seasons. The defeat came at the hands of a tough Blythcville eleven. Suc- cess of the Tigers came as a result of combined efforts of a hard working team and a fine coaching staff. Opening their 1948 football season, the Tigers were pitted against a strong Russellville eleven. That was their first scare in many games. But with the fine play of the Tiger forward-wall and the hard running of the backs, the Tigers won by a 20-to-9 score. In the second game of the season the Tigers put on their first scoring spree. Tiger backs tallied five touch- downs, while the Fordyce Redbugs were held to one six pointer. Pacing the Tigers to their second victory were David DodoImi, Luther Young. Ken Carter, and Preston Sanders. Journeying to Oklahoma City, the first out of state foe for the Tigers in many years, the Tigers were met by a large Classen High squad. Classen High, second largest high school in Oklahoma City, suffered their only defeat of the season at the hands of the Tigers. The lads from Little Rock completely swamped the Okla- homans before the fans from tfieir own home town. Classen High failed to score as the Tiger forward wall, sparked by Guard Ceorge Oliver and Center Henry Fitz- gibbon. failed to give way. The Tigers won their third game at the expense of the Comets by 19-to-0. The heart-breaker for the 1948 season was the Tiger- Chick Classic. The Tigers suffered their first defeat in 35 starts to a strong and determined Blytheville team. This was probably the ln-st game of the Tiger schedule with every player playing his whole-hearted best. It was All-State Guard Ceorge Oliver who netted tin- Tigers their only score of the contest when he recovered a fum- ble in the Chick end zone. But the Chicks went on to defeat the Tigers. 12-to-6. Fans from Hot Springs will probably never forget the one man show that Don Countryman. Tiger end. put on for the Trojans at home. In this contest the Tieer backs failed to gain ground against a stubborn Trojan eleven. Because of this the Tigers were forced to take ♦o the air. With the passing of Spann and Carter and the brilliant nass-catching of Don Countrvman. the Tigers went on to defeat the hometown boys 19-to-0. Countrv- man deserves much of the credit for winning this gam- in catching three T. D. passes. Another close shave for the boys of Coach Wilson Matthews was the Tiger-Grizzly contest. The Timers got off to what seemed to be a run-awav game with Ken Carter scoring in the opening minutes of the first ouarter. But this score was the only one the Tigers netted in the entire game. The Grizzlies shifted from a seven-man line to a nine-man line that stopped the Tigers cold. This shift came too late for the Tigers had racked up seven points, and that was enough. Final score was Tigers—7, Grizzlies—0. An eighteen point underdog Tiger eleven completely outplayed and out-scored their out-of-state rivals, the Male High Purples of Louisville, Kentucky. The Tiger started the game as an underdog, but ended the game on the big end of a 14-to-6 score. The strong Purple line failed to give way to the Tiger backs, but the second- ary for the Male High eleven couldn't knock down the Tiger passes. Norma Krekorian was crowned queen of the homecoming game in the festivities before the con- test. The only other blot on the Tiger schedule the past season was in the game against the El Dorado Wildcats which ended in a grueling G-to-6 deadlock. Preston Sanders scored the T. D. for the Tigers. The Wildcats caught the Tigers off guard, and on the first play of the game the Wildcats scored. After Sanders had tied the game at 6 and 6, neither team threatened the double line marker. Seeking their seventh victory of the season, the Tigers journeyed to Hope to tangle with a highly talantcd Bobcat squad. The Tigers were great underdogs, but they refused to Ik beaten again. The Tiger magnificent forward wall completely stopped Hope's prize backs. Buddy Sutton and Tommy Britt. The home town boys had hopes of giving the Little Rockians a good shellack- ing, but when the game came to a halt the Bobcats were on the losing end of a 12-to-7 score. This was probably the greatest upset for the Bengals all season. So far the Tigers had had a very successful season, but there were two more games to be played. First of the two remaining games was the long awaited con- test with the Striped Mules of Pine Bluff. Using both air and ground attacks, the Tigers took the Zebras in stride with an impressive 39-to-6 victory. With Pine Bluff defeated, only one game stood in the Bengals’ way of taking the Big Six Championship. But this one game was with the Bengals old cross-the-river rivals, the North Little Rock Wildcats. The Cats had made a very impressive showing so far and were not to be left out. That Turkey Dav Classic saw the Tigers roll up the largest score since 1925 when these two teams started their great rivalry. A stadium packed crowd of 15.000 saw ever) player in the Tiger back field crossing the double line marker at least once. The Cats were no match for such a team, and as a result the cats were buried under a 46-to-7 score. Probablv the greatest athlete in Arkansas in many vears is none other than LRHS’s own Henry Fitzgibbon. Heim’ has received the greatest honors that can come to anv high school player. In his three vears he was named on the All-State, All-Southern, and Center and Captain of the All-American team named bv the Wig- wam Wiseman of America. It is tme that Henry is probablv the greatest high school athlete in Arkansas. It is also true that Henry couldn’t have made such an outstanding name for him- self had it not been for other members of LRHS Tigers. Such outstanding Football players as All-State Cuard, Ceorge Oliver, and oustanding backs as Dither Young e� � d Ken Carter helped to bring the Tigers out on top of the 1948 season. But these boys are only the links in a long chain of determined athletes that have come from LRHS. Submitted by Pat Henson and Dither Young Approved by Wilson Matthews, Coach.

JI2J4S D:r r “E EaMjt Jeam TIk- Link Hock High School Tiger Cub b:uketball team is a group which gets little credit but deserves much. They are considered as the farm dub” from which tin- A” team picks the best prospects to Ixilster their own squad; and from the looks of the record they made during the past season, they have some pretty fair pros- pects. TIk- Bengal Bee's were on the top half of 8 con- tests while the)1 dropped only 3. Coach lluynie served as their instructor, and the boys say they could not liave had a l etter coach, as Haynie kept them in the best of condition. Tbc spirit and hustle was great also, and if you saw one of the Cub games, you were sure to see a hustling hall club from the opening whistle to the elos- ing gun. The three games that the- boys lost were close decisions to tl e North Little Rock Wiidkittens who also liad an exceptionally good B” team. Three of the boys sliowed good enough stuff toward the end of the season to be moved to the A” squad where they played in the remaining games and went to the state tournament. TIk boys were Jim Hart. Frank Lucas, Tom Iatne. Con- gratulations to Coach Haynie and his lads for a very successful season. Submitted by PAT HOGAN. Appropcd by GEORGE HAYNIE.

Plagued by green candidates and “individual players Coach Everette Barnes had a difficult time find- ing the right five to perform like the Tigers of the past. Many people have often remarked that LRHS should be the tops in all sports because of the numbers and sources that it has from which it may draw players. It is true that there are some 2.000 students enrolled in LRHS. with about 1.000 being boys, and that Little Rock has three junior highs supplying it with material each year. With a male enrollment of almost 1.000 it is hard to believe that each year only about 40 boys re- port to try out for basketball. The majority of the 40 boys trying out usually have not played basketball be- fore with an organized team. The boys coming up from junior high each year usually take a year to learn to play together because they have played under different coaches, and each has learned a different style of play- ing. It is an odd fact that when a team wins, cverylxxly is throwing flowers to the players and coaches; but when the team hits a low mark, as they did this year, then you hear everyone yelling for the coach's scalp and razzing the team. After all. no team can win all of the time. The Tiger fans have had a lot of comments to make about Coach Barnes’ style of playing; but if you ever tried to catch a greased pig in a slop shoot, then you know just what Mr. Barnes had to face. Coach Barnes is one of the ablest basketball coaches in the state; and the number one item he stresses in his coaching is good sportsmanship. He has never allowed any of his team to perform before the public and display poor sportsmanship. There is no doubt that the Tigers could have won more of their games if Coach Barnes had allowed the boys to play to protect themselves: but it is better to be a good sport and lose than to be a poor sport and win. Coach Barnes spent the whole season trying to find the right combination to play the brand of ball the Tigers of the past had used. Little Rock fans can look forward to the coming 1950 season with much hope of a good team. All of the team that participated in the State tournament this year will return for another season. The Tigers may not have had a good season, but the boys who represented Little Rock in the State Tourna- ment certain’)’ did redeem themselves in the eyes of every Little Rock fan who was present. Words can not begin to tell the story of how the inspired Little Rock Tigers, who had lost almost every game during regu- lar season play, came to life in the first game of the Arkansas state high school basketball tournament and played the Fort Smith Grizzlies completely off their feet before losing in the last five seconds, by 45-44. The Tigers have long been noted for the hard determined style of play which they usually use in tournament com- petition. Coach Everette Barnes and his Little Rock Tiger basketball team, even though their season percentage is not as high as that of the past, deserves all of the praise of true champions. It is true that Little Rock hit a low mark this year, but we can not let that be a judge of the teams of LRHS, for in the past the Tigers have turned up with some great basketball teams. During the year of 1918 the fans, of Little Rock saw one of the greatest teams in the history of the school; that year Little Rock had a center and a forward who scored more points individually than all of their op- ponents did together. 1929 saw another championship team. During the years between 1918 and 1929 Little Rock had many good teams only to be beaten out in the state tournament. Little Rock lost some of its hardwood power and did not come back with a championship until 1944, the year when big John Hoffman and Wayne Bern.’ set the pace for the Tigers. Little Rock repeated the following year under the guidance of Wayne Bern’. 1946 saw Dickie Thompson and Bobby Boggess leading the Bengals to another championship. During 1947 Louie Schaufele set the pace for the Tigers as they captured their fourth con- secutive championship. Coach Barnes has been the mentor of the Bengal basketball team since 1944; during that time his teams have won four championship out of six. Submitted by: Luther Young. Approved by: E. C. Barnes.

The Tigers had a perfect record for over a period of 19 years. They ran up a consecutive win streak of 98 track meets before they lost their first meet to a strong Fort Smith team of 1945. Track spirit among Arkansas high schools has de- clined in recent years. Schools over the state failed to enter meets with the Tigers. They seemed to think it useless to compete against the boys from the capitol city. The Bengals usually gave the schools which did enter a real shellacking. It was not until 1946 that schools, coaches, and ath- letes Ircgan to take much interest in track. After the Tigers had lost to the Grizzlies from Fort Smith, other schools began to feel that they had a chance to take a championship. This brought about a great change all over the state, junior high and senior schools became interested in track in 1946 for the first time in many years. Grammar schools again held intramural track around their schools. Many good athletes entered senior high schools from the lower grade schools and interest among the fans l egan to rise again. The Bengals hold records for nine of the state records of Arkansas. These records are the 220 yard dash set by Ben Russell of Little Rock in 1983-time 21.8 seconds: 440 yard dash set by Gene Smith of Little Rock in 1983- time. 50.9 seconds; 120 yards and 220 yard hurdles rec- ords being set by Bainks Busluniaer of Little Rock in 1938-time. 15.5 seconds, and 24.9 seconds, respectively. The discus throw record belongs to John Hoffman of Little Rock who in 1945 set a new record of 145 feet and 5 1-2 inches. Probably the greatest of all track and field records is the javelin, won by Doug Gravdon of Little Rock who in 1926 at Chicago, Illinois set a national record of 199 feet and 5 inches. Little Rock also holds records for the 440 yard relay set in 1945 bv Don Fuqua. Eugene Hall. Don Leatherman and Clyde Brown-time, 47.3 seconds. The 880 yard relay record was made in 1933 by John Donaldson, Silas Wilson Carl Frick and Ben Russell of the Tigers. Don Wren, Cyde Price, Car- roll Stegell and Murrill Watkins are responsible for the mile relay record of 3 minutes 31.2 seconds set in the State Track meet of 1940. There are many strange stories behind the track and field records made in Arkansas over a period of some 20 odd years. Probably the strangest of all these stories is told of Doug Graydon. It has been said many times that Doug should have been an opera singer instead of an athlete. He was a very temperamental guy. For in- stance when he was going to throw the javelin if the wind would happen to change he would stick his spear into the ground, rub his fingers with rosin and wait until the wind changed for his advantage. The longer he waited, the farther he could throw. Doug, still in high school, was entered at Georgia Tech to compete against college stars. Doug came out on top by tossing the javelin 209 feet. Coach Earl Quigley entered him in a track meet in Texas. He was to enter three events. While perform- ing his first feat, the broad jump he sprained his ankle. He was rushed to the hospital, but came back in time to run the 440 yard dash and compete in the javelin throw. Before LRHS was moved from what is now East Side Junior High, Coach E. F. Quigley tells of how his track boys used to practice in MacArthur park. The track meets were held at the same place. There was no track then, as there is now around our football field. They had certain trees marked for the 220 and 440 yard dashes. The boys would be required to circle the respective trees in each event. Many years ago the Tiger track mentor and his squad of thinclads would travel to many parts of the U. S., com- peting in track and field events. But gradually the spirit declined and during World War II grammar schools and junior high schools dropped out of track completely. Coach Quigley has recalled track and field meets where as many as 1700 boys and girls would compete. Yes, girls, years ago there were as good athletes as anyone could want. Coach Quigley stated that he has seen as many as 135 girls entered in one event. Now that the grammar and junior high schools have revived their interest in the sport of track again, the fans of this great sport will boost the LRHS Tigers toward the top again.

Those Ixiys who are called anything from A to Z are really the Athletic Managers. Whenever a player needs some equipment, the managers are there to give it to him. Along with giving out the equipment, they have to care for it after its given to the players and after the players give it back. They are responsible for the loss of the equipment either by the players, or by wear and tear. Not only do the water boys take care of the equipment, but they also care for the players. If the players are hurt, the guy who patches him up is generally a manager or Riley Johns. For a long time the water boys never got an award, but a few years ago they received “M's with LRHS in the comers. But now they get LR's with “Manager in the ! ottom of the L. Reading from left to right the student managers are: Fred Cazort, Bill Floyd, Skipper Graham, Curtiss Finch, Ridiard Burt. Student IddanacfeM Again we meet with some boys who are behind the scenes. This time its the Student Managers. These l oys are the ones who help count out the money and tickets at the football games and any other sports activity. Not only do they help with the athletic finances, but they also work with the tickets to all pay-assemblies and a few dances. It's their worry that all the money at these dances, assemblies, and games checks in right. Stu- dent managers are chosen by the students under the recommendation of Director E. F. Quigley. They are a big help to the athletic department for the part they play. Reading from left to right they are: Bobby Langston, Buddy Herndon, Ernest Gephardt, Sonny Fulk, and Wayne Eskridge.

There are three hands that make up this organization—the Tiger hand, the concert hand, and the training band. The Tiger marching band of 115 musicians is com- posed of members of the concert band and selected stu- dents from the training band. School opened on Thursday. September 9. and the Tiger band made their first appearance at halftime of the Little Rock-Russellville game September 10. Dur- ing the 1948 football season, the Tiger band made ap- pearances at six of the Tiger’s home games. The band made trips to Hot Springs and El Dorado, and present- ed performances there. In co-operation with the Great- er Little Rock Community chest, the Tiger Band present- er! a special performance to publicize the Communit)' Chest Red Feather drive. Besides furnishing music for all pep assemblies and parades, the Tiger band is called on repeatedly for other sen-ices. The concert band, under the direction of A. F. Lape. is composed of selected musicians from the Tiger and training bands. The band rehearses each morning in the band tower. The concert band. Wing one of the fore- most high school bands in the nation, receives many in- vitations to music festivals and clinics all over the state. The LRUS band was represented at the All-State band clinic by thirty students. The clinic was held at Russell- ville. and attended by bands from all parts of the state. Fifteen musicians, along with directors A. F. Lape. and Eugene Davis attended the Director’s clinic in Pine Bluff. The band won many honors, competing with many bands, at the All-State festival in Hot Springs. On April twenti- eth, the concert band presented its twenty-first anniver- sary concert. This annual program attracts much atten- tion from critics and music lovers all over Arkansas. The band is presented in semi-annual concerts to the student body at LRHS. Concerts were presented at the three junior high schools; and during the month of May. the band presented a series of concerts in the bandshell of MacArthur Park. The training band, under the direction of Eugene Davis, is composed of students who are Wing prepared for the concert band. The training band has its quarters in room 420. The band presented performances at the LRHS Homecoming game, the Foster bandshell. and at LRHS for the student botlv. The band provides music for the commencement exercises and for various other school activities. A. F. Lape. director of the concert band, and an alumnus of LRHS. is vice-president of the Arkansas School Band and Orchestra Association, and chairman of Festival and Clinic committees. Mr. Lape also acts as a judge at many state contests throughout the South. Eugene Davis, director of the training band, is an outstanding French horn player. He is a member of the Arkansas State Symphony. Mr. Davis also instructs at music camps throughout the summer. Mrs. Elinor Pauli is secretary of the instrumental music department. Working with her is a staff of office workers selected from the band. Other duties are also filled by student helpers. The band department makes annual awards to its outstanding students. Awards are based on musician- ship, scholarship, and citizenship. The first year award is a sweater, after a student has earned the sweater, he becomes eligible for the silver medal, the second year award. The third year award is a gold medal. Awards are present d to the students at the annual band banquet. The reason for the success of the band lies in the attitude of its memWrs. Each student, upon entering the band, takes an individual pride in the organization, and works to uphold the traditions and high standards of the band. Band students have much school spirit, and back almost all school activities one hundred percent. Little Rock High School can well W proud of their band, which has not only brought favorable comment to LRHS and Little Rock, but also to the State of Arkan- sas. Submitted by Jack Berryman.

This organization undertook many projects in accordance with its purpose of performing services for the school and endeavoring to promote student participation throughout the school. This year, one of the first projects of the student council was the task of revising the constitution. The constitution committee made a thorough study of the changes and additions that were needed. After the re- visions had been made and approved by the student council, the constitution was voted upon by student body. Color day is always an important event in the curri- culum of Little Rock High School. This year it was par- ticularly exciting since it was a combination of color day and homecoming day. The majority of the council mem- bers participated in the effort to make this occasion a memorable one. With the intention of introducing some- thing different and promoting student interest and par- ticipation. a parade was planned in which each class of Little Rock High School of the past twenty years was represented bv a decorated car or float. Another item of interest on that day was the making and sale of Ixxwter pins designed in the form of iiger heads. The student council was also in charge of the sale of concessions at the home coming dance. Pictures of the parade and various other events of the day were sent with an article about this occasion to the magazine written for the National Association of Student Councils. One project that has been of special service to the student body was the printing of our student directory. The directory was compiled by a special committee. The first step toward the making of the room number, and classification of every pupil in school. After estimates of the cost of the directory were obtained for several printers, the printer was selected, and the costs of the cover and paper were decided upon. Then the cover of the directory was chosen from various sketches sub- mitted by members of the art department. Finally, the directories were completed and ready to be sold by the student council members. Now, when you want to know Susie’s number, just look in the student director)'. The Little Rock High School Student Council is a member of the State, Regional, and National Student Council Associations. The Associations have conventions each year in different cities. This year, a delegation from our student council attended the Regional Con- vention at Mobile. Ala., and the State Convention at Jonesboro, Arkansas. These conventions have bene- fited the delegates in many ways, and the information acquired by them has proved to l e very helpful. A get-acquainted party was given in Campus Inn this spring by the Little Rock Student Council for the members of all junior and senior high councils in the pub- lic schools of Pulaski County. A pleasant evening and supper, supplied by the members of the L. R. Student Council, were enjoyed by the guests and the hosts. The party was planned with regard to the convention at Jones- boro and the better acquaintance of the pupils who would attend the convention The student council has also sponsored many other important activities such as: selling school jewelry, de- corating the goal posts in fixitball season, selecting pay assemblies, acting as hosts to out-of-town groups visit- ing our school, and installing new mirrors in the boys’ rest rooms. Private parties for council members have been successful, particularly the annual week-end party at Fem Cliff. Even,' organization has leaders who help to pro- mote its work and solve its problems. In the student council these leaders were the council sponsors. Mrs. Margaret Reiman and Miss Margaret Stewart. Much of the success of the council’s progress this year has been a result of their guidance and hard work. This is a resume of a year’s work. The student coun- cil has worked hard and faithfully to perform services for the school. However, it is not possible to give an account in words of the many little things that the coun- cil work has aided such as striking the spark of leader- ship in some student or inspiring someone on to greater efforts. In these ways during the past year, the council has striven to serve its purpose. Submitted by Margaret Davis. Approved by Mrs. Margaret Reiman, Sponsor.

At tl e beginning of tin school year. Ray Flack and Pal Walls were chosen or their ability and perseverance in newspaper work as managing editors of ye ole Tiger. In this journalism depart- ment, a course b arranged to fit the students' talents, intend of vice-versa. If students are artistically inclined, our faculty sponsor and guardian of the ‘TIGER finds out and places them in a place where she and they agree. We honestly believe tltat ‘teacher eats, sleeps, and lives journalism. (Promise you won't tell or repeat thb, but all true journalism students are “blue-blood- ed.” They have printer’s ink for blood! Of course this is a secret between you and me and some other 2,000 students here in LRHS). The TIGER comes out every two or three weeks on Fri- day. so that the students can take it home and let their parents read it. The Tiger is offered to approximately 2000 persons here in LRHS and to 300 outside readers. We exchange papers with 100 other schools in tin United States. We also send copies of the TIGER to each grade school in the city, to the three local junior high schols, and to each of their principals. Preparation for the next edition of the paper begins the fol- lowing Monday after tin distribution of the paper on Friday. As- signments are made, and everyone goes out in rearch of a story or event that will make good news. Stories are brought in. typed, edited, and then sent to tire printer. Alter the printer lues had his fun, the stories are then given to the page editors, who place them appropriately and cut and arrange them on the page to fit the amount of space available. Dummies are made up by the page editors. (No. that is not tin- dummies that one sees walking around the halls, hut the ones that hang on wall-books in Room 103. This reporter admits that we are not all smart, but one cannot be a dummy ai d get anywhere in the Journalism department.). After the pages are made up. some of the students work overtime down at the print simp reading proof and helping to get the paper on the press. So tar. we haven't missed our dead- line . . . We would consider that Judgment Day. Much overtime work Is done bv my fellow writers, but as teacher says. “sl� e pays on the report card,” and. believe me, she strictly does. Everything is taken into consideration, when grades are due. Here a student is not restricted to one job. but he may do any- thing that he has a talent to do. He may work in the editorial or advertising departments. In live editorial department efforts arc made to “cover every comer of LRHS from Campus Inn to tin band tower, and front the stadium to the parking lot and the main office. The advertbing department which is considered the “bank of the ’TIGER, has been headed by Allen Heiman and Nancy Baskins and tlieir assistants. “Ads secured by these stu- ents together with the subscriptions to the ’TIGER pay the debts incurred by all departments.

Besides taking part in school activities, the Journalism de- partment also Iras outside interests. One afternoon in October of 1948, the advanced students were excused from • ehool to go on a good will and welfare tour sponsored by the Community Chest. We visited the Arkansas Children's Home and llospitai. the Urban League, and the Ada Thompson Home. Stories of the trip were written and pictures were made. These students re- ceived recognition in tire Community Chest Bulletin. ‘THE BROADCASTER. published in Little Rock, and the picturo and a story were later sent to national headquarters of Community Chest. Credit given where credit is due.” is true down in 103. The Quill ami Scroll, international honor society for high school journalist , is open to those students who have done outstanding work in the field of journalism and who have an acceptable scho- lastic standing in their otlrer subjects. During the current year. I.RHS had approximately 20 members in Quill and Stroll. The “TICER” is judged by Mr. W. J. Ixmke, of the Journal- ism department of the University of Arkansas, in his monthly report of the high school papers in Arkansas. Mr. Lemkc writes his criticisms, compliments, and recommendations in a clipsheet called the Arkansas High School Press Association Bulletin, which is mailed to all tin schools monthly. In the spring of every year, the journalism departments of all high school in Arkansas i .re invited to send delegates to attend the Arkansas High School Press Asociation which is held at a designated school. In 1948-1949 Little Rock High School served as host to the AHSPA. At tin- group meeting, delegates received information concerning newspaper work, and lunch was served in the cafeteria. There they a ho h-.d tl� e opportunity to meet boss and girls from all over tin state. At this point, recognition should Ik given .o those students who have worked faithfully and who have got out the “TIGER regularly and on time.

Our Sty £torif Of all the course's in LRHS, I’ll bet that the most in- teresting and the strangest one is Journalism. This state- ment can only lx t x well prosed by the work that we did recently to produce the yearbook that vou now hold in your hands. I will endeavor, briefly, to tell you some of the happenings that made all the work which we did seem secondary. Most of the work was done on Saturdays, for dur- ing school hours the Tiger was produced. Help was so- licited from any senior in LRHS who was interested, hut as none was forthcoming, the journalism students as- sumed the responsibility for production. There was al- most always the same group of guys and gals working on the PIX. for they were the ones who knew the funda- mentals of journalism and enjoyed doing the work. But. whoa, now. I'm getting a little ahead of my stop.1. Tlie real experience started wav hack in September when the first letters were sent oijt to the potential ad- vertisers. who with their dollars and “sense” would help us to pay for the annual. They were sent to everv person who had ever advertised in the PIX, and to some who didn't even know that there was an annual in Little Rock High School. Bids were taken for the work, and being old “stav- at-homes.” we gave our contracts to Little Rock pho- tographers. printers, and engravers. After careful con- sideration we selected hinders in San Antonio, because we knew of their ability and their prices were fair. But this was only the iH'ginning. for now plans had to he made within our own organization. One night in December we held our first meeting, and all the people who figured in our plans were pres- ent. Dick Keck. LRHS alumnus, as a friend and advisor was there as were the boss men from Peerless and from Quapaw. We discussed various things, and then with Miss Edna Middlehrook, our teacher, holding tightly o O o Upper left: Ray Flack, managing editor of the Tiger and the PIX, at his desk. The printers call him the “bloodhound” because of his newsy talents Center: Pat Walls, managing editor of the Tiger and the PIX, shares equal honors with Ray. She also reports daily for the Arkansas Gazette. Bottom: Allen Heiman. business manager of the Tiger and the PIX, an honor which he has held for two years Out £iq £ ter if to the purse strings, we embarked on what we Imped would be a successful voyage on the Sea of Creative Journalism. There was no staff named immediately, but the true workers would make up the list. Working supplies were ordered, and we began to look a little like a pub- lishing house. There were gallons of rubber cement, lay out boards, India ink, scissors, and rolls of Scotch tape. Rearrangement of furniture in the rooms, was made so that maximum efficiency could be obtained. When the first dummy was drawn up, we could see that it would have to contain 200 pages, because any liook which pictured the complete happenings of one scltool year at LRIIS would have to have more pages than any previous annual that LRUS has ever had. With all these extra pages the price of the work would have to be raised accordingly. The shock of this thought came to us. and then with a cry. Miss Middlebrook pounced upon the advertising staff, with the cry of 50 pages of ads or bust! With her stirring speech in their minds, they tramped over Little Rock in search of the needed “moola.” The advertising solicitors after one or two weeks of this, became known as the blister brigade. for as the old saying goes. Neither rain, sleet, nor snow could halt the progress of our appointed rounds. They did their best to live up to this slogan. Dick drew up the plan for the cover, and after ap- proval bv the Senior Class it was sent to San Antonio to the binders. In a few short weeks they sent us back a rough sample of what the cover would look like. This was taken to our artists, and with additions which they made, the cover was sent back to San An- tonio. It was sent back in another couple of weeks to us. o O o Upper right: Dick Keck, former student of LRIIS. artist and designer of the FIX and the PIX cover, is shown here making small clay figures which were later photographed and framed to make the division pages of the PIX Center: Miss Edna Middlebrook, faculty sponsor for the Tiger and the PIX.

He gets no credit, just fun for his reward. Our £ig £tcrij and we approved whole-heartedly- Come to think of it. that cover must have been the most widely traveled in the nation. Now in writing the story of the production of the PIX. we must flash the spotlight upon those guys and gals whose work it was that made this annual a reality. The leadership in this annual was taken care of by two kids. Pat Walls and Ray Flack, who had ink run- ning in their veins after it was all over. In the other part of the PIX. the advertising section, we have Allen Heiman. and his assistant. Nancy Baskin, whose ability at selling ads. contributed greatly to the success of our advertising plans. Man.' Lochridgc was the lady in waiting for Miss Middlebrook, for she had a wonderful capacity for work which she used for every type that was needed. She was assisted by three girls, Betty Short, Virginia Thompson and Margaret Hunt, who also were always there to lend a helping hand. It was rumored that Raymond Evans. Gayle Brew- ster, and “Skipper Graham now have rubber cement in their blood, but I don't believe that this is the reason for their acting the way they do. The sports section was done by two LRUS athletes, who won some more laurels for their excellent writing. They were Pat Henson and Luther Young. The bookkeeper for the PIX was one Pete Benetz, who although he did not take Journalism, saved the day o O o Upper left: Left to right. Ray Flack. Billy Brans- cum, Mary Lochridgc, and Pat Walls.

Bottom: Night workers on the PIX who tickle the typewriter keys are. from front to back: Mary Lochridgc, William Westbrook, Donny Bown, Reba Hobby, and Jack Berryman Out fiig £tctij for us with his fancy “Agger-juggling. If by some re- mote chance you do not like a picture in the annual, the boys to see are Wilmer Counts. Franklin Davis, and Lee Bearden. But of course I know that you loved all their pictures. Dick Keck, our artist and advisor in lay-out mat- ters. deserves a write up for himself alone. It was his unselfish support which helped us to produce this '49 FIX. We offer our deepest gratitude to him and hope that some day we may repay him for the labor and help he offered to us in our own work. To Miss Edna Middlebrook, our teacher-sponsor, goes the hope that the torment that we put her through will not affect her permanently, for it was her constant cheerfulness and her persistent call to arms that helped to pull us through. Those ten consecutive Saturdays when we worked all day-well, we didn’t mind them a bit. This sums it up. and so we say, “the defense rests. We hope you enjoy this PIX as much as we have en- joyed making it. At last our staff is named. They named themselves, by the work which they did! Pretty slick, eh?
