ITHF 'J FSTERNER '25 i4 ’c ICflTIAN To DR. J. T. HUTCHINSON A man of high ideals, a true and sincere friend: always ready and willing to give freely of his time and energy toward the bet- terment of student welfare: a man of science by calling and profession; highly esteemed and loved by all who know him. The Twenty-five Westerner is dedicated as a tribute to the pos- session of those qualities that make a valuable instructor and - azi i THF WFSTFRNER '25 I I When in later years you pick up this record of events of one glorious year at L. H. S., the 1925 Westerner, if here you re- cognize the happenings of that year in their crystalized form, if some things recorded here make you wish for those old days again, and some things make ycu laugh because of their absurdi- ties; if, in short, we have suc- ceeded in making this a mem- ory book, we are satisfied— |[ublmrk Jfiijh Scljnnl This building represents one of the most complete educational plants in West Texas. The original building was completed it. August, 1923, at a cost of $150,000; the annex was completed in January, 1925, at a cost of $100,000. The structure is fire-proof and was planned to give every room the maximum daylight-lighting. The building will accommodate 1,200 students. The Auditorium, seating 800, and having full stage equip- ment is on the second floor. The gymnasium is as large as the auditori- um, and is immediately below the auditorium. The science laboratories, as well as the manual arts department, are of the most modern equipment in Texas. That crowd of helpers, who were, no doubt, ir. .he esterner office when the photograph was made, cannot be seen at the window on the third floor, because they ducked” out of the way of the camera-man just as they would if a teacher had strayed into the office. They were known as skippers , but none of them ever had adequate attendances. 3L2Z)|THE WESTERNER ORC R' BtfW-T U Faculty Classes Athletics Fine Arts Favorites Organizations School Life and Advertisements IJ 5 -aft THE WESTERNER '25 DR.

Through careful selection Henry Benson was chosen as our president. He has surely bten worthy of the position, for it was through his efforts together with the co-operation of the Class of 26 achieved its accomplishments. The Junior Class has never been behind any class in the school. A large number of athletes came from this class to defend the name of the school by competing with the other schools in the South Plains. They have had representatives on the stock-judging teams; had the greater part of the girls in the clothing contest. The greatest thing that we boast is that we paid our annual debt. We took great pride in making friends with the new students and making them more satisfied with the change of schools. We trust that our Senior year may be as happy. If it is we shall accomplish many great things. R. WALLER GREEN MULLINS H. BENSON BROTHERS CARTER PAYNE STRICKLE JENNINGS J. LAW E. SIDES P. DENTON G. STANTON Ipr—«—it- -ii—ifcs-4 A aC.

Thirty-one men answered the call, and football practice began the same day, with Mule Davis as coach and Pinkey” Lowery and Oscar Sensa- baugh as his able assistants. September 8th. school started and that afternoon fifteen or twenty more men reported, bringing the total squad up to about fifty men. For three weeks the whole squad indulged in some very strenuous work outs, durng which time a scrimmage was held with Slaton. Sla- ton won 6 to 0, but this was not counted as a game, and was a great help to the Westerners because it gave Coach Davis some idea of just what he had and the men he could put in his regular line up. October 3, Lubbock won the first offi- cial game of the season from Floydada 6 to 7. It was a game in which the West- erners played and fought together, never stopping, but fighting continually like they did in no other game the remainder of the season. The second game of the season was with Littlefield, Lubbock easily won the game to the score of 2 I to 59. The score of the Lubbock team should have been much more, but many of the second of the team men were substituted after Mule was sure the game was won. The next game was with Clovis, New Mexico. This was a hard game and the teams were equally matched. They fought on even terms most of the game, but one little break ruined it all for the Westerners. When the final whistle had blown and the dust had cleared away, it was to let the Western- ers realize that they had been defeated to the score of 6 to 10. The following Friday, the Westerners took on Plainview, who battled them close the first half. But the second half the Westerners went wild and defeated the Plainview boys 27 to 0. This gave Lubbock the right to meet Amarillo for the district championship. THE WESTERNER z z ' '-'j - '-' It was in the Amarillo game that Lubbock met their Waterloo. This was a hard game to lose, but everybody realized that the Westerners went down fighting hard, and were beaten by a better team. We are now waiting for an- other year to roll around, when Lubbock again meets Amarillo on the grid- iron. Then we hope that things will be different. The game at Big Spring resulted in a 6 all tie. It was a good game, al- though the Westerners did not win the game, they felt that they were award- ed for the trip, and all were glad they made the trip, because here they met the truest bunch of sports they had met the whole season. Lubbock next defeated Post 17 to 0. This was slow game, and neither team had anything to fight for, since both had already been eliminated from the state championship race. Lubbock was an easy winner. The last game of the season was with Ralls. In the last five minutes of the game the Westerners rallied and made 25 points and were still going good when the game ended, but failure to start soon enough cost Lubbock the game. This game was curtains for Mitchell, Corley, Captain Wilson, Ter- rell, and Adams. A word half between medicore and successful is needed to de- scribe the 1924 football record of Lubbock High School. Four games were won, three were lost, and one tied. But after all, winning the games is not the only thing that makes a successful football team. We all believe that the Westerners did have a successful team, because not one team did they play that said they were anything other than true sports. Starting the season with only two let- ter men and the rest inexperienced men. Coach Mule Davis built a team that made a remarkable showing. Twelve letters were awarded in football. Five of the twelve are lost through graduation, of course, their loss will be keenly felt, the other seven will be back, next year stronger than before. With their help together with some valuable recruits from the second team, Mule should be able to develop a team in 25 that will at least go far into the finals of the State cham- pionship race. The Westerner wishes Mule Davis and his football team of 1925 the great- est success. LOWERY, Coach |THE WESTERNER - ± 7 Floydada 6 Lubbock 7 In the initial game of the season and before one of the largest crowds ever to witness a game in Lubbock, the Floydada Whirlwinds failed to get revenge for their defeat of the year before and went down in defeat to the tune of 6 to 7. Al- though the Whirlwinds’' lost they never gave up and the game was not won until the final whistle had blown. The little scrimmage of the week be- for with Slaton had helped the Westerners 100 per cent. Eleven Westerners entered the game with the determination to win and in the first few min- utes of play they completely swept the Whirl- winds off their feet and plunged down the field for a touchdown. Dunlap made the touchdown, and Bill Wisdom carried the ball for the extra point. The “Whirlwinds made their touchdown in the third quarter, a short pass to Daily in mid-field, who made a beautiful broken field run of 50 yards. A try for the extra point failed and as a result the Whirlwinds LOST the game. Several thousand people saw the game, and many said it was the best High School game ever witnessed. Every man played a good game and not one Lubbock player had to leave it until it was finished. Corley playing his first game at Center played his best game of the season. Wisdom, Ater and Bullock also played a good game. WILSON Captain- Half Back r i .— ZzA THFWESTERNER 25]fe T Littlefield 21, Lubbock 57 CORI.EY Center This was rather a one-sided affair, Lubbock had nothing to fight for and Littlefield's fighting didn’t do much good. Lubbock scored almost at will even when the second team was run in. But Little- field never lost their fight, and lost like true sports. KELLY—Tackle |THE WESTERNER 'Hji Clovis 6, Lubbock 0 October 16 at 7 o’clock, the “Pep squad sent the Westersers to Clovis. They arrived about one and after a rest of an hour they entered the foot ball game tired down. Never-the-less they played a good game and neither side seemed to have the advantage until late in the game, when Ater punt- ed out of bounds two yards from the goal line, then Clovis carried the ball over for the only score of the game. It was a hard fought and interesting game and put the Westerners in shape for the Plainview game. BARTON Tackle I THE WESTERNER 25lpSI Plainview 0, Lubbock 27 ALEXANDER Half-Back In the first real championship game of the sea- son the Westerners defeated the Plainview Bull- dogs 2 7 to 0. It was an interesting game through- out and both teams fought on even ground until late in the game when Jakey opened up and made some beautiful broken field runs for threj touchdowns, and each time the try for point was successful. Mule played only 12 men and this made it dull for the reserves. Although the game was played at Plainview, Elmer's Pep squad was there and furnished more noise than did the Plainview delegation. In a game that decided the District champion- ship the Westerners met their Waterloo, Amarillo won 33 to 6. This was a game in which the better team won. The Westeners were beaten from start to finish, beaten but never whipped. We realized this when they came back in the final period and made a touchdown, the only one they made. In this game many men were carried off the field from both sides, carried and not walked. The Wes- terners managed to hold the Visitors to one touch- down the first half. But they were so badly crippled in the second that they could not resist the attack of the powerful, fresh team. Many men played dis- regarding broken noses, ribs, and other injuries, they played as only a true Westerner could play. Many Amarillans left the field also, but the second team of the Golden Sand- storms was equal to the first. Amarillo’s outstanding player was Bernie Vaught, at quarter, who was later proven ineligible, he was a good field general, punter, passer, broken field runner and plunger. Seamon Smith played the best defensive football for the Westerners, time after time he broke through the heavy Amarillo line and tackled the Golden Sandstorms for a loss. Three men were sent in against him but not one could handle the Powerful Smith”. Other line men who played a good game were Bullock, Corley, Wisdom, and Barton. Ater and Wilson made many long gains around end. Although the Westerners were outweighed I 3 pounds to the man, the game was hard fought and inter- esting, and the Westerners went down scrapping. Now every Westerner is living and hoping, his motto is: Beat Amarillo next Year. ; L SMITH Guard, Captain-Elect 5gd|THE WESTERNER 25l|SSZ Big Spring 6, Lubbock 6 On Armistice Day Lubbock battled Big Spring on their home ground to a 6 and 6 tie. It was hard fought game from start to finish. The Big Spring team made their touchdown in the latter part of the second quarter. Then Big Spring kicked off and Alexander made a long pass to Jerry” Wil- liams who galloped down the field 70 yards for a WILLIAMS -Knd touchdown just as the whistle blew, and the half ended. During the last half neither team was able to score and the game ended Big Spring 6, Lubbock 6. Jerry Williams was the spectacular star of the game being good on both the defense and offense. Kid Adams also played a good game at quar- ter. fc 1 T ADAMS Quarter - Back ’• - -■ ISSZj | THE WESTERNER 'HTfcSfal Post 0, Lubbock 17 In an interesting, but one sided game the West- eners defeated Post 1 7-0. The Westerners held the Visitors in Lubbock territory most of the game. In the first quarter the Westerners scored their first touchdown. Later in the game another was made. TERRELL—Guard and then a safety. Wilson made many long end runs, and Mitchell plunged through line for several gains. Leslie Smith one of Pinkey’s second string men, played a good game, as well as did Fat Terrell and Red Kelly. MITCHELL—Fullback ;v ; I THE WESTERNER X25IES Ralls 32, Lubbock 25 Ralls again invaded Lubbock and won a loosely contested game. Mitchell for Lubbock made the first touchdown on a cross buck. After that the Visi- tors opened an aerial attack that made most of their touchdowns. In the last quarter, Wright re- lieved Adams at quarter, because of some smashed ribs. The Westerners rallied and opend an aerial attack that netted them three touchdowns in the PAYNE—Guard last five minutes of play, and were within three yards of the goal line when the final whistle blew. Had the game lasted two minutes longer! There were very few people out to the game and the Westerners had little encouragement. This was hard game to lose, but the Westeners fought to the last, then left the game with tears in their eyes. Keith playd a good game for the Jack Rabbits. For the Westerners Wright, Kelly, Bullock and Payne play- ed a good game. Bl'LI.OCK—Kin! - J, r- THE FOOTBALL TEAM OF TWENTY-FOUR. We had a football team in Nineteen and Twenty- four, As for fight no team ever showed more; Although they met with some mighty tough luck. Not one member ever gave up the fight and buck. Now let us meet each member. Men I shall always remember, It is with greatest of pride. That I introduce men that fought by my side. First Captain Wilson, a mighty good man. For touchdown after touchdown he ran; His one word was fight, FIGHT, And this he did with all his might. Whacker, a tackle wasn't so slow. Since he was a man he didn’t have to hit low; But you can figure it a safe bet. He was feared by all opponents he met. Jakey” who was fast as a deer. Caused other teams to shed many a tear; Because when for a touchdown he started. The opposing line often parted. At quarter we have Adams and Wright, Both backed the team with lots of fight; 'Kid” furnished them with plenty of pep. And under his generalship the team kept its rep. At tackle we have another country jelly. He answers to the name of Red” Kelly; His motto is eat, his by-word is eat And what he did was play football and eat. In the center of the line we had Vaughn The boy with lots of brawn Bad pass-backs he made none. And only stopped fighting when the game was done. -V-a S THE W£STEFNER 25lja fa- On right end is found the battling Brick He made a lot of catches that were very slick; And when once he caught the ball. If he was stopped it took them all. On the other end we have the mighty “Jerry In all games he picked at least one cherry; At Big Springs he was the best. He caught a pass—well, you know the rest. Payne at line positions he played all. And rarely ever missed any tackles a’ tall. He was such a mighty strong man. That all his opponents were set on their can. Now what I say is not one bit bull. For Linus Mitchell was a hard hitting full; And the fact that “Fat was a star among stars. Is proven by the way he kicked the ball thru the bars. Let us not forget our yell leader, Mr. Moore, The lanky youth yelled until his throat was sore; He was there at every game, And yelled until the opposing team was tame. At left guard was always the mighty Seamon, Every team knows that in football he is a demon; He is Captain Elect in Nineteen and Twenty-five. And a Captain that will cause the team plenty of drive. All of the above men in football made their “L”, And to do it some of them had to fight like Hell; But not one man among them all. Would for anything part with his gold football. For this token we thank the Athletic Association, As well as Pinky and Mule the best coaches in all creation; They are with the Westerners again in Twenty- five. And will put out a team with more pep than a whole bee hive. £ THE WESTERNER v25lfejl Basket Ball O’ 2i Shortly after football season had come to a close, a call was made for the basketeers. Several men responded but among those who an- swered the call, Coach Noles had only one letter man. around which to develop a team. Nevertheless, they all started out working hard co-operating with the coach and with the determination to play the game because they loved it and to do their bjst for old Lubbock Hi. They started out with a winning team succeeding in the first five games but at the time when the games counted most, some of the best play- ers were sick and as a result the Westerners lost some very valuable games. Toward the close of the season the boys had fully recovered and were back on the team; the Westerners had again hit their natural stride. The basketball tournament was held at Plainview February 27th and 28th the Westeners had the best chance ever of winning this tournament but were unable to attend. Some exceptionally good players were developed this year, a few of which will be lost through graduation. Around three letter men Coach Noles will build a team that will carry the honors for Lubbock Hi next season. BASKET BALL OF '25.

However, we went to the district meet this year which we did not last year. Interest in tennis did not de- velop until about the middle of January. A meeting of players was called then and a tennis club organized. Meredith Williams was elected President and Roy Ingram Secretary. However, Williams, probably our best player, soon had to leave us. So Jim Watson was elected President in February The fee was reduced this year and we received financial aid from the Athletic Association. In the girls’ diviison only five girls would come out, they were Ruth McKee, Ruth Noah, Johnnie Boyd, Maurine Henderson, Mar- garet Trigg, all of whom came out and practiced rather diligent- ly. However, a few other girls came out later. For the county meet Ruth Mc- Kee was chosen to be our single girls' representative. Ruth made a good showing against a much more experienced player by whom she was defeated. This is Miss McKee's senior year, if she had one more year in High School we are sure that she would make it hot for the other girls in the dis- trict meet. For the county meet Ruth Noah and Johnnie Boyd repre- sented us in the girls' doubles. Abernathy . There we were sup- posed to have met several teams but Abernathy was the only girls tennis doubles. However, Aber- nathy had won the Hale County match so should have been good opposition. Instead, our girls de- feated them easily. In this match Maurine Henderson replaced Johnnie Boyd who was in New Mexico at that time. Miss Hen- derson played one of the best games we have seen played by a girl. In the district drew and were defeated, after a fine show- ing by them. For the county meet Ruth McKee was chosen to be our singles girl representative. Ruth made a good showing against a much more ex- perienced player by whom she was defeated. This is Miss McKee s sen- ior year, if she had one more year in High School we are sure that she would make it hot for the other girls in the district meet. For the county meet Ruth Noah and Johnnie Boyd represented us in the girl s doubles. These girls defeated the stiff op- position in the county and were el- igible for the district met. The Sat- urday after the County meet our team went to an invitation meet at 5� Sr THE WESTERNER '25 ? In the boys division we had the quality of material but not the best quality. A few clays before the representatives were selected it was found that one of our star players, J. C. Alexander was ineligible. We had been depend.ng on him, for he easily had a place on the doubles’ team. Wi'.h his nerve, much harder of that any competitor in the district we could have sent a team to Austin. Jim Watson was elected to be our single representative at the County meet he easily defeated one opponent but when he came to the boy from Slaton he had more than he expected to handle. He did not play his best game and only his best game could have won. As Watson had lost in singles he was prevailed upon to go with Terrell on the doubles team. Terrell seemed to be excited and Watson tried the opposition was not hard but they won the three sets. However, our boys came back and took the fourth and last sets. At Abernathy there was no opposition so we took the match by default. h or the district we drew Ralls. One of the Rail’s out players won the district singles. Had our boys played their best they could have beaten Ralls. As Ralls was really the best team in the meet we could then have won the championship. Next year we expect to have a rather strong team, as we have the wealth of materials. THE WESTERNER v25 o. THE WESTERNER '25 3 2 THE WESTERNER x25 - f«J 1 7— ■- First Row: Adams, Payne and Terrell.

Every one thrills to its stirring tones, is born alone on the hot sirge of its rythmic impulse. Music is an instinct of human nature. The love of it—appreciation of the beau- tiful melody, a swinging rythmn is planted deep in the heart of every one. Great as is the joy of hearing good music, there is a still greater joy of pro- ducing it and that same appreciation of music is the bases of musical talent. Then there is not a better way of developing a musical Lubbock than through our schools. Jas. W. Crowley organized the band in Lubbock High School the first of this term and has made a wonderful showing. He has accumulated in his time with the organization of the band, forty-one instruments that have worked hard for the High School and Lubbock. This band represented the Lubbock Chamber of Com- merce for the first time as a band that is truly consisted of members that are resi- dents of Lubbock at the West Texas Chamber of Commerce Convention which was held at Mineral Wells last spring. LUBBOCK HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA The High School Orchestra was organized by Miss Annis Owens, the high school violin instructor. After a late start, this organization, consisting mostly of begin- ners, under the able direction of Miss Owens, grew by leaps and bounds. Its first engagement was at the Hotel Banquet held by the leading citizens of Lubbock. Here the orchestra was praised very highly for excellent work. From then the Orchestra appeared publicly throughout the year. In the annual South Plains Music Festival our orchestra was defeated in the contest by a very small margin by an orchestra of three years experience. The one noticeable characteristic of Miss Owens’ directorship is that she allows her orchestra to play nothing but the better class of music. Nothing cheap or de- grading to sense of melody beauty was ever played by her orchestra. In this Miss Owens is to be commended very highly. Knowing this, and that she has plenty of talented pupils, we can rest assured that the Lubbock High School Orchestra is now a permanent organization.

At the first of school Elmer Moore, by some mishap, was elected “Yell Leader.” With the assistance of Mr. Mowery and Miss Bledsoe, the assistant yell leader was chosen. These were Sylvia Ainsworth and Lawrence Green. Any time you might see Elmer, Lawrence, and Slyvia in the auditorium or miles out in the country going through with the many gymnastics of a famous yell leader. Later the “pep” squad was chosen from the various classes. The “pep” squad attended every game at home and went to Plainview and back- ed the Westerners in the first official game of the season. The Westerners” owe part of theii success to the untiring efforts oi the “yell leadeis and pep squad,” we hope that the good work will continue in the years to come.

H. S. in the Interscholastic League meet, but each realized that there was “nothing to lose” in a literary club of this kind. The club was provided with a room where the members could go for study and rehearse at any hour of the day. They sometimes debated on subjects other than that provided by the League in order to form the habit of thinking on their feet and producing extemporaneous argument. But the Interscholastic subject “Re- solved that the United States Should Grant the Philippine Islands Their Independ- ence within a period of Five Years,” occupied most of their time. With the able assistance of Mr. Witt and Miss McAfee, each member learned some excellent principles of public speaking which he shall never forget. Each real- ized that all could not win the decision of the pudges as the best representative of the school but was eager to learn. Conseqeuntly C. A. and Sterling won the Dis- trict meet and made an excellent showing against Miama, a team that was defeat- ed in the finals at the State meet. To show that each member believes he has learned something which is more val- uable than money ask him how much he would take for what he has learned. He will enthusiastically reply that he can’t estimate what he has learned since he has “lost nothing.” THE RADIO CLUB Top Row: Barnard, Keen, Kershner, Thomas, Moore, Hughes, White, Brooks, Hart.

The Club was organized and spon- sored by Miss Ethel Cassels, instructor of Senior English. The officers of the Club are: President, Douglas Hicks; Secretary- Treasurer, Francis Smelser; Merwyn Barrier, Annual repre- sentative as he holds office of editor of the Annual. This Club is exceedingly small in comparison with the Senior Class from which the members come, but those who had the time to devote to the Club are enthusiastic workers. The Avalanche, the local daily paper and the Radiator, the High School paper, received many very interesting articles for publication from the Club members. Pauline Scott, Chlo- dell Whitley, Ruby McBride and Vaughn Corley are the special reporters in the Club for the various clubs, classes and sports, other members of the Club reported the happenings of the School. We feel that the Club has been very successful in its first year. We hope the senior classes of the future may have a leader as capable and reliable as Miss Cassels and that the Journalist Club will be the leading organization in High School for it not only offers literary but also social advantages.

The foot ball boys ended what may be termed a very successful season Thanksgiving, and the banquet was the final close up when the captain for the team for next year was elected. The special guests were Miss Lois Parker, of Palestine, who is visiting in Lubbock and the two appreciated “stand bys” the foot ball boys always call in an emergency. Mr. O. F. Sensabaugh and Judge James H. Goodman. President of the Athletic Association, Roy C. Mowery, ardent follower of the Westerner boys, presided over the meeting and kept things lively, with the assistance of Miss Bledsoe, secretary of the organization. Seyman Smith was elected captain of the squad for next year. A delightful dinner of turkey, dressing, peas, potatoes, cranberries, olives, sliced tomatoes, cake, and coffee were served to the following: Misses Meadow, Cooper, Smith, Cox, Hemphill, Bayless, Leaverton, Young, Ainsworth, Campbell, McCallan, Mathis, Buckingham, Parker, Leaverton, Bledsoe, Mrs. Iran Wilson; Messrs. Lowery, Williams, Bullock, Smith, Wilson, Alexander, Corley, Mitchell, Kelly, Payne, Terrell, Moore, Adams, Barten, Davis, Sensabaugh, Goodman, and Mowery. Even though we are Seniors that doesen’t necessarily mean that we would not like to be “kids again and have old Santa come to see us every Christmas. This fact was proven on December 19, 1924, when the entire Senior Class came dressed as children; the girls in short dresses; the boys in knee trousers and Windsor ties. All the Seniors skipped down the aisle, each little boy with his little sweetheart as a partner. They passed upon the stage where John Doyle Gammill, alias old Santa awaited us with an immense box of Christmas gifts. Every Senior received a pres- ent as well as several of the teachers. The most attractive gifts were: the bottle of H20 for Mr. M. E. Witt, a rolling pin for Mr. and Mrs. H'. N. Atkinson, and a box for Mr. Lowery. After the children had enjoyed their gifts to the fullest extent they were placed in a box and sent to the children at the Orphan’s Home. When Chapel was over the Seniors, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Reid and Miss Cassles went to town and after a parade around the square, stayed by several indi- viduals, every one went to the Busy Bee and ate lunch. We then went to the Palace Theatre and saw Harold Lloyd in “Hot Water ; we had a good time chewing gum and sucking lolly pops.
