Text from Pages 1 - 114 of the 1921 volume:

¥w :dr- uuriE 1.991 _ eLr Vrx’torvio Tox y- Forewor catch the high hopefulness, the eager joy in work and play, and the extraordinary vitality, in the crowd that su;arms our high school halls, has been the purpose of the 1921 Huisache Annual Staff. To presence the fine sturdy equipment of optimism, the spirit of good fellouvsihp, of courtesy, and of high ideals that inspire all worthy members of Main Auenue High School is the goal for which we haue striven. Dec! ication those who haue represented Main Avenue High School in her many many contests, we dedicate this book. Our pride in our representatives on the athletic field, on the platform, on the drill ground, in spelling, and essay contests, and in style shows, inspires this tribute. Their abnegation of self, their courageous patience, their heroic endurance, and their clear-headed grasp of the significant make the June Class of 1921 eager to honor them. —4— —s— HUIiPACHF MR. HOWARD The most considerate friend and advisor, the most enthusiastic “booster” of all sports and an untiring worker, is our beloved principal. No one keeps closer track of the undercurrents of the school or is kinder or more helpful than our Mr. Howard—known as “Jack” by the boys. MISS RUBY FLY Miss Fly, the hard working and proverbially cheerful “office boy”, is a very necessary member of our staff. She does all the routine work and oils the wheels of the school—not that we are grateful for that— but she does this (to us) necessary evil cheerfully, and we appreciate that MR. HOFSTETTER “Frit Mr. Hofstetter is the most cheerful specimen in captivity, no harder worker is in existence, and as a chaperone, a tease, and a good all round sport he can’t be beat! There never was a more jolly companion or a better friend. Three cheers for “Fritz”. MRS. CLARK ••Mother Clark Mother Clark was put on this earth for the main and simple reason (to quote Penrod) that we needed her and always will need her. Can you imagine not having a matron to save on “blue” days? We couldn’t possibly spare Mother Clark. DR. RHODES Unfortunately Dr. Rhodes is almost an entire stranger to the school at large, but all who know him join in the wish that he may become better known to us, and thereby universally liked. Come and be introduced. —6— HVIiPACHE The Faculty Says “I’m afraid I’ll have to call you down again.”—Thomas “Be quiet at the back table.”—Pierce. “Well I’m surprised at you!”—Ilalc. “Now don’t forget this.”—Dawson. “0, for a perfect recitation.”—Bryan. “Don’t you know?”—Adams. “All right now—give attention.”—Gohmert. “Now let us take a short review.”—Malone. “Don’t slur—keep time.”—Chipman. “Everybody quiet now.”—Parr. “Have I made that clear?”—Baskin. “Why don’t you work?”—Pessels. ‘ ‘ My goooooodness. ’ ’—Cana les. “This is no place for conversation.”—Randall. ‘ ‘ Silencio. ’ ’—Onderdonk. “Give the reasons—unless you don’t know them.”—Jones. “This isn’t a conversation hall!”—McDonald. “Things don’t only just happen.”—Butler. “You ought to know that by the light of nature.”—E.

They were the surprises the fourteenth of September held in store for Main Avenue hoys and girls. Mr. Howard had evidently missed his children during the long summer months, because he decided to come hack to us. We were very glad to see him back at Old Main on that first day. The place wouldn’t have seemed at all natural without him. Dr. Rhodes, our new superintendent, came all the way from California. He is thouroughly capable of filling his new position as superintendent of the San Antonio Schools. He has all the latest and broadest ideas on education and thinks that we should be organized and allowed to rule ourselves in co-operation with the faculty. OCTOBER 1, 1920 PRESIDENT OF STUDENTS’ COUNCIL ELECTED With the beginning of the school term, came the demand for a students’ council, just as we had the term before. Candidates were nominated for the office of president. And an assembly was held in which each of the three candidates made a speech stating just what he stood for, and what he intended to do for the whole student body if he were elected. Then the excitement of an election! Real polls and an election conducted just as a presidential election should be! We could hardly wait till the following Monday to hear the returns. Well, it came finally, and William Winkler was the lucky one. There was great rejoicing in his ranks, especially in his own advisory, which presented him with a big box of candy. OCTOBER 8. 1920—JUNE PICNIC The first social event of that snappy June Class was held at Brackenridge Park. October 8th, with the June Class out in full force. After everyone had enjoyed the eats. Mr. Howard gave an enthusiastic talk. Mr. Howard. Jr., however, attracted more attention than his proud “daddy.” He was unanimously chosen to be the June Mascot. A suggestion that we take a trip up the Alpine drive was immediately followed. Did we have a good time? we’ll say so!!! With such officers, sponsors, and our mascot we were bound to be the peppiest class Main had yet seen. Ross Howard —9— HVIiP-ACHE OCTOBER 11, 1920—FACULTY FROLIC More fun! This time it was the teachers, who deserved an extra good time after all the trouble taken in getting us started on the “flowery path of knowledge.” On this particular Monday, our faculty were a little more anxious for the end of the seventh period than even we ourselves. If they anticipated a good time, they had a full measure. Cars were waiting to take them to Koehler Park, where the frolicking began. Swimming, trips to the Lily gardens, and feeding the monkeys were the order of the day. At five o’clock, everyone had a curious presentiment that something interesting was happening at the picnic grounds. Why not stroll over and investigate? And the sight that met their eyes! Mr. Hofstetter’s committee had arranged tables and benches, Mrs. Clark had steaming coffee ready, and bacon and weiners a la Mr. Burleson, smelled delicious. When everything eatable had disappeared. Miss Stone, chairman of the social committee. presided. She called on each person to tell his “pet horror.” The most eligible man on the faculty was to be given as a reward to the teacher giving the best description. We didn’t know that there were so many “horrible” things in this old world. There was much controversy over the reward. Who could have desired a better time than this! We thought it was characteristic of our faculty, because they are always so willing to help us in our good times. OCTOBER 18. 1920 dr. McLaren comes to main high LYCEUM COURSE INTRODUCES DR. McLAREN The wide awake Febs. brought a Lyceum course of great worth to high school. Every month an interesting performance was given in the auditorium of the school. These entertainments were attended by many outsiders, who owe special thanks to the February class. On Monday night. Dr. McLaren spoke at great length on America, the Land of Opportunity, and especially deplored the fact that the American people seem so idle. The audience was delighted by his eloquently presented thoughts, and his charming per sonality. It was a great privilege and inspiration to have been able to hear this famous Scotch orator. OCTOBER 19, 1920 JUNES STAGE COMMUNITY MEETING Because the June 21 class realized the importance of the amendment for better schools, they held a community gathering to bring to the people of San Antonio the vital necessity of the bill. The program began with the singing of the Star Spangled Banner, after which the president of the June class, Mr. Oscar McCracken, introduced the first speaker. Miss Joyce Garrett. Miss Garrett discussed the proposed amendment thoroughly. The next speaker. Mr. Herbert Oliver, was a former student of Main. And of course he was glad to come back to help us. Mr. Stevens was another of our boys who gave a rousing talk, and left no doubt in the minds of his hearers about the absolute need of the measure. The girls’ chorus rendered several pleasing selections and the orchestra, of which we are so proud, gave two splendid numbers. After these, Judge Brooks spoke. The last speaker was Mrs. McAlister. Her novel way of presenting the subject went straight to the hearts of all citizens of the Lone Star State. A noticeable fact of the evening was that there were great numbers of ladies in the audience. This certainly looked as if they were doing their duty as enfranchised citizens of the United States. OCTOBER 22. 1920 HALLOWEEN FROLICS JUNE MASQUERADE Such a good time! And, like lots of other good times, it happened in the halls of Main High. The Junes decided to turn into other people just for one night—and they did. Everyone from the Queen of Sheba to Faust was represented. The fun commenced in the third building, where a guessing contest held full swing; then the first building hall became the fashionable place and here the Queen of Sheba and Faust enjoyed some real live jazz. At the end of the fifth dance, the scene was again changed to the third building. After as much pie. apples, peanuts, and fruit-punch as those people stowed away, it was a wonder that the jazz could lure them on. But it did just the same, thanks to the unusually energetic spirits of these Junes. The prizes for the best costumes were awarded after a grand march. Mr. Curtis Meeks got the boy’s prize for a “gentleman from Seguin’’ outfit. He had created quite a stir all evening. Miss Margaret Green was the lucky girl. Her Indian costume certainly made a hit. OCTOBER 22, 1920—CONGRESS HAYRIDE After a snappy meeting on Friday afternoon, the Congress members adjourned in pieasant anticipation of the evening. At seven o’clock the whole “shooting-match’’ and some girls started on a good old hayride. There was, however, some delay over a girl, who refused to appear; and the party had to go on its bumpy way without her. They piled out at the Salado Creek on the Sutherland Springs road. Then the fun began. After a good supper, some interesting games were played round the camp-fire. The boys sang heart thrilling songs and the girls did their share of the yelling (they always do). At half-past eleven two truckfulls of tired but happy people arrived at High School. OCTOBER 23. 1920 DRAMATICS WELCOME NEW MEMBERS A Halloween dancing party is a very attractive way to entertain new members. The decorations were especially appropriate and artistically arranged. At the doors large Jack O’lanterns winked at the shy maidens and made all the boys jealous. The windows were hung in black and yellow crepe paper; beautiful ferns in the hall completed this pretty color scheme. However the punch bowl was the center of attraction. I arge baskets of golden cosmos decorated the table where it was placed. Besides the new members, there were present Mrs. Vodrie. Miss Pearl West. Mrs. Roberts, Miss Florence Bryan and Mr. Howard. —11— A very interesting night was spent at Main Avenue by all who attended the Open House. Main never looked so festive and attractive. The front hall was filled with teachers wearing tags, on which their names were printed. Many of the pupils ushered our mothers, fathers, uncles, aunts, grandparents, etc., through the different buildings and introduced them to our old friends, the classrooms. At first one drifted (can such a term be applied to the bustling peppy crowd?) naturally into the aduitorium. Here movies were thrown on the screen and. in between, speakers for the Better Schools Amendment came on the stage to deliver their messages. Nearly the whole evening the lower floor was full and many seats upstairs were occupied. The business office, where Miss Gohmert. Miss Mayhew. and Miss Cook presided over the clicking typewriters; the botanical and zoological specimens with Miss Schultz in charge; Miss Stoddard's capable force of nurses and their demonstration of how to care for an invalid, and the heroic rescue of a drowning person; all these were features of the first building. On the third floor of the same building, the artistic ones, under Miss Mathaei’s directions sketched and drew' nobly. The posters that decorated the school bore evidence of their talents. The sole and main attraction of the central building was the library. Decorated with yellow cosmos, it was indeed an attractive spot. As usual Miss Hicks reigned supreme. The mysteries of the third building wrere too many to dwell on at length. Mr. May's chemical department and the cooking and sewing rooms proved especially fascinating to the crowd. Out in the automobile repair shop, Mr. Peavey’s class handled all kinds of insides and outsides of cars. Mr. Dwenger's tribe of automobile enthusiasts discoursed eloquently on their pet hobby. Last but not least, came the “eats. The cafeteria was open and it’s a safe guess that everyone paid a visit to it. Miss Johnson’s physical culture classes gave some folk dances, played games, and drilled for the benefit of the on lookers. Many of the prominent San Antonians were present, and expressed very favorable opinions of the school. We know that everyone had a good time and, to judge from the number of cars parked up and down Main Avenue, it seems that people knew' wdiat was in store for them. OCTOBER 29, 1920—FEB. 21 MONKEYSHINES On Friday night! At Mina Alvord’s house! The Febs of course! They were having a grand old time celebrating the ghostly night. Two grinning pumpkins, the one spelling Feb. 21 and the other M. A. H. S.. greeted everyone from the gateposts. And they were not the only ones; others vied with each other to see which could appear most grotesque. One could hardly believe that the merry group came from the dignified graduating class. After several games, the whole company adjourned down the basement stairs —12— HUIiPACHE to be confronted on the landing by four pairs of gleaming eyes, apparently detached from any orbs. The guide informed everyone that the orbs belonged to members of the class, and that the person guessing their owners would receive a prize. This was only a part of the merrymaking, the rest of which would take pages to describe, but this much brands the Febs as an unusually peppy and original class. OCTOBER 30, 1920—A GHOST CONVENTION The Philomathean Debating Club held a Ghost Convention at the home of Miss Frances Smith in honor of their new members. The spooks were greeted at the porch by big spooky looking Jack-o-lanters, which leered at us in the most “skeery” manner. The guests were admitted after saying the pass word—“S-h-h-h-h! ” The only light in the house came from the fireplace, before which the most hair raising haunted stories were told. After passing around the articles which demonstrated the stories, and frightened even the boys, lights were relit and refreshments were served. Dancing was enjoyed to the music of funeral marches and later real jazz. NOVEMBER 9. 1920—INTERESTING ASSEMBLY FOR MR. SIMMANG At this assmbly, Mr. Howard introduced our visitor and told us a few facts about his life. He was a diplomat in Russia for a short while, and then was sent to Manchuria for a longer period. He came through San Antonio on his way to China, and stopped here, as attorney for the American Chinese Bank. He gave a very interesting talk, in which he told us a lot about Chinese and China. He also told us something about the attitude of the Chinese toward the United States, and assured the students that they could count on him should they ever need a friend in China. NOVEMBER 10, 1920 MAIN PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE WAR HEROES Main honored the heroes of the Great War, who sacrificed their lives for their country, with a very impressive ceremony. Mr. Howard opened it with a serious talk on the significance of Armistice Day. He then introduced Miss Olivia Baldesareli, who gave a four minute address on the same subject. Miss Baldesareli’s splendid articulation and musical voice are a constant pleasure to the whole student body. Paderewski’s Minuet was then rendered on the piano by Miss Lodovine Chester. She showed talent in her playing. After that, Mr. Werner Beckman talked to us. He is a graduate of M. A. H. S. and regards Main as the only school. He said that the first feeling that came over him on that first eleventh of November was one of exultation and pride. The next was a deeper sentiment of reverence for men who had the courage to fight for the right. The assembly was closed with one minute of silent tribute to the heroes. HUIiPACI NOVEMBER 12, 1920 THE FUNNY MAN, MR. STEWART SECOND NUMBER OF THE LYCEUM Those, who were not present on that particular Friday evening, certainly missed a splendid evening. Mr. D. A. Stewart was the attraction. He talked seriously and drew funny pictures at the same time. According to the Huisache Weekly, “One minute the crowd was shaking the walls with lauhgter and applause; the next moment the men were sneezing and saying that the room was mighty close. The girls openly dabbed their eyes with their dainty little handkerchiefs ' Mr. Stewart gave a short sketch of his life and made it very amusing. While he was speaking, he was always drawing a different picture. He drew, altogether, about fifteen pictures, and each one better than the preceding one. NOVEMBER 19. 1920—SOPH. MASQUERADE PARTY The Sophs entertained with a masquerade party at Old Hi on the night of November 19. Clowns, ballet girls, demons, and almost every character imaginable were represented. “Wink ’em” and other games were played. Refreshments were served in the cafeteria to this variety of Sophs. The Crowd then went upstairs to the main hall, where dancing was enjoyed. NOVEMBER 20. 1920—JUNIOR BARNYARD FROLIC The brightest star in the Junior “Social sky was the unique barnyard frolic. This affair out-shone the many brilliant events given by that class. The halls of Main never before held such a great number of country folk. Big farmers, little farmers, fat farmers, and skinny farmers could be seen gently whirling pretty innocent country maidens around wheat stacks, and carefully avoiding wild chickens, whose chief purpose was to make themselves heard. The stunts performed at this frolic will be a lasting memory to all fortunate enough to witness them. The tight rope walker exceeded our greatest expectations. The next stunt was historical as well as amusing. Before us was portrayed most vividly the ancient chariot races. We feel confident that had the young participants actually seen a race of this kind, they could not have shown it to better advantage. The red soda-water. sandwiches, and pickels fitted in remarkably well with the rest of the occasion. NOVEMBER 25, 1920—THAT EVENTFUL DAY Yes, Thanksgiving Day; but also the day on which the Feb 21’s goat disappeared. This noble goat’s name was Doc, and he figured in the game against Brackenridge. He survived and reached Main safely, only to be taken to his future home. Miss Mina HVIiP-ACHE Alvord’s house. Here he abode in peace (?) until the June 21's were blessed with an inspiration—that of purloining the goal. (The Junes would not stop to steal another’s property; they purloined it which is quite different.) A special committee consisting of Mr. Oscar McCraken. in whose fertile brain the plan originated, Mr. Gordon Lewis, who furnished the transportation, Mr. Spurgeon Mansfield, both of whom lent their elbow grease, sallied forth on the quest of Doc. They knew that the goat was at Mina Alvord’s house on Alamo Heights; so they proceeded in that direction. By some judicious scouting, they found that the goat was browsing cheerfully in the yard. After debate on the question of getting the goat away without being seen, either by a man chopping wood (people ought not to chop wood on Thanksgiving Day) or by some children playing near by (children should stay inside on damp days), a plan was agreed upon and quickly put into action. But alas! nobody reckoned on the car’s protesting. The engine died a painless death just four blocks from the fatal spot. Nevertheless, the resourceful committee managed to get some gasoline from Miss Dama Jones, and they went on their way rejoicing. Doc was unceremoniously dumped at Mr. Mansfield’s house, where he lived until he was presented to the Febs again, their long and endlessly mourned Doc. P.S. It rained very hard just after the purloining of Doc and washed away all the auto tracks. That’s why Miss Alvord’s detective force could not trace the doers of the deed Doc NOVEMBER 26. 192C--JUNE THANKSGIVING DANCE With the corridors of old Main as a rendezvous, the June ’21 Class of Main Avenue held their Thanksgiving Dance and Bunco Party on the evening of November 26. The school was artistically decorated with streamers of the class colors. Bunco (or rolling the bones) was played the first part of the evening. Prizes were awarded to the best players (the most experienced?) Refreshments consisting of chocolate and yet more chocolate and cakes were served in the cafeteria. The party then adjourned to the corridors, whre the strains of that Jazzy Eubanks Orchestra were floating thru the air. Dancing was in order, after which the party broke up and as two or three people expressed themselves: “We are thankful that the June Class is composed of such a con- genial and peppy bunch of young people.” —15— HyiLRACHE DECEMBER 3, 1920 SHAKESPEARE CLUB PRESENTS TWELFTH NIGHT The Shakespeare Club did an unusually good stunt by producing Twelfth Night at Main Ave. High School. Ever since they were organized twenty years ago. they have done some really worth while thing every year. This was this year’s accomplishment. Everyone pronounced it the hit of the season and decidedly the best thing that had been given by the Club. The cast was as follows: Viola................ Sir Toby Belch....... Malvolio............ Fabian............... Sir A. Ayueeheek_____ Olivia .............. Viola's Twin Brother . Duke Orsino.......... Valentine. Curio-Lords Antonio.............. Sea Captain.......... Clown................ Maria................ Ladies................ Sailor............... ..............Ruth Bourn ..............Jean Johnson .........Mabel Billingslea .........Virginia Kirkland ..............Jean Holland ............Marjorie Adams ...........Armine Lester ...........Elizabeth King Jimmie Steele, Gray Gillet ..............Grace Embry ..............Helen Jersig ...............Hallie Ball ....Dorothy De I esdernir ..Anne Page, Petra Alonzo ..........Diana Dickenson The chairmen of the committees were the following especially efficient young ladies: Play Manager . Costumes . . ., Properties . . . Advertising . . Tickets....... Programs . . .. ..................Jean Holland ...............Harriet Sprague .................Petra Alonzo ..................Mary Lupe ................Jessie Church Virginia, Fisher, Roberta Dear Besides these, and just as important, came Mrs. Davis Moore the coach, and Miss Scofield. They lent all their energies toward making this play the tremendous success that it turned out. The Shakes at a later meeting decided to give the proceeds from their play to the school library for buying bookshelves and a set of books describing the costumes of Shakespeare’s day. —16— DECEMBER 17, 1920—SOPHOMORE CHRISTMAS DANCE December 17, the Friday before Christmas week, the Sophomore Class entertained with a dance at the home of Allison Thompson. The house was attractively decorated with mistletoe and the different Xmas greens, and in a secluded corner, where it could not be found easily, was the beautiful punch bowl—a popular place. A three piece orchestra furnished such music that no person within a block of the house could possibly resist dancing when he heard it. At last, when the time was drawing near for the good-nights, a group of those Sophs who were ready to stay a few more hours tried to set all clocks and watches back. They were not smart enough to evade Mr. McDonald and the plan was furstrated. Our other sponsor, Miss Schultz, entertained the guests who did not dance with her numerous dandy jokes. DECEMBER 21. 1920—Los Pastores—A MIRACLE PLAY The Spanish Department gave a version of an old Miracle play in the auditorium of M. A. H. S. This kind of play is one of the oldest in the history of the drama. The Mystery and Miracle plays were given even before Shakespear’s time. It is especially interesting to note that the Azetc Indians, who were converted, gave such entertainments in their chapels. In the play, Delia believes that Gila is stealing her husband from her and both the husbands suspect each other of taking the other’s wife. Of course the Devil is the cause of all this discord. A good old hermit tries very hard to get things straightened out, while the Devil does his best to thwart the old man’s plans. At a feast of the shepherds and their wives, the hermit appears to tell them about the Savior’s birth: and to warn them about the Devil, who is parading around in disguise. When the Devil appears, the angel Michael also descends from heaven to tell the people to go to Bethlehem. Here the Devil and angel have a fight, in which the Saint Michael triumphs. The last scene shows the shepherds arriving at the manger. As a finishing touch, there was a tableau, the Adoration of the Magi. The angels and wise men were grouped round the beautiful Madonna and Child. Mrs. Carvajal managed this delightful little play. She worked tirelessly on it: and she surely reaped her reward in the enjoyment it afforded the large crowd that turned out to see it. DECEMBER 22, 1920—BETTY HENRY WINS Hurrah for Main High! Hurrah for Betty Henry! She won the Safety Essay Contest for us. And the number of her essav was “13”. Think of it! Of course Mr. Johnson and Mr. Howard prolonged the agony of suspense as long as possible. Then the crash came and there never was such a happy audience. The Brackies were the winners of the second and third prizes: and we carried off a special prize for Charles St. Clair’s very clever illustrated essay. —17— DECEMBER 27. 1920—PHIL. DINNER DANCE The Phils entertained their Feb. graduates. Mina Alvord and Sarah K rcher. with a Christmas Dinner Dance at the Original Mexican Restaurant, the evening of December 27th. The place cards and favors carried out the Christmas idea. After a delightful dinner had been served, toasts were given. Miss Frances Smith made a toast to Sarah Karcher, and Anna Patten to Mina Alvord. Oscar McCracken responded with a toast the “Old Main” and Miss Baskin read an original poem, “A Toast to the Phils.” The party then progressed to the High School, where Eubank’s Orchestra made dancing more than ever enjoyable. JANUARY 15, 1921—JUNE ’21'S ENTERTAIN FEB. ’21'S The biggest, best, most successful and most wonderful dance that ever thrilled the halls of old Main High was given by the June 21’s in honor of their friends, the Feb. ’21’s. The decorations were gold and maroon, which were the colors of the Feb. Class. These were artistically arranged and afterwards each person carried away some of the decorations for a remembrance, though they were not apt to forget such a splendid night of enjoyment. The programs were another attractive feature; these had every dance dedicated to somebody or something about the school. And that punch! It was deliciously abundant and was thickly populated with cherries, pineapple, and other luscious accessories. The crowd dancing had to have two floors so as not to step on one another's heels. And everyone agreed that the orchestra could jazz all right! Mr. Howard, the sponsors of the Junes and Febs. several other members of the faculty, and some parents were the chaperones of the affair; and it is a safe guess that they enjoyed themselves as much as anyone. JANUARY 19, 1921—FEBS HOLD FORTH The Febs class day was held January 19, at Main. When everybody was seated in the auditorium, the whole Feb. class came marching in, dressed in the most ridiculous costumes. Shy little girls with their fingers in their mouths, overgrown looking boys with patched clothes, and rolicking ones of both sexes, sucking pepperment sticks of candy, made up the happy gang. They sat in specially reserved seats and were envied by the whole school in general. The program began with a Feb. song. Miss Catherine Aubrey at the piano Mr. Joe Sparks then presented Mr. Harry Frey of the June ’21 Class with a ridiculous speech. Miss Vedder was made the subject of the same speech at the second assembly. Miss Aubrey sang several funny songs and received hearty applause. Then the June 21 class presented the famous Feb. goat, Doc. back to the Febs. There was a little excitement due to the fact that the Febs misunderstood the intentions of the Junes. But this was quieted and Doc survived. The Febs also took the oppor- HVIlP-ACH tunity lo Rive the pennant back to the Junes. The honor of carrying it across the stage rested with Snowball, a very small bashful member of the colored race. After the assembly the school adjourned to the front yard to witness the burning of pink slips and other troublesome literature. To cap the climax of such a hilarious morning, two periods were omitted, and the student body went on its lunch ward way rejoicing. JANUARY 20, 1921 HURRY! HURRY! HURRY! This decidedly clever play was presented by the February graduating class. It was written by LeRoy Arnold and won first prize in a newspaper contest, to which plays from all over the country were sent. The characters in the play were admirably well taken by the members of the class. The most popular character was, perhaps Jack Crandel, which part was acted remarkably well by Mr. Harry Jersig; the heroine, Miss Hilda Schaezler. was an ideal one for the part; one of the cleverest pieces of character study was Miss Letitia Brown, really Miss Violet Smith, who wept and giggled in turn without difference of meaning. Among other characters worthy of mention, was Mr. Hooker; Mr. Homer Stevenson took this role very successfully. Mr. Hymen Plenn was an ideal son and brother; and won the hearts of the audience by his wholesome humor and desire to help his sister. Those who missed this play certainly missed a good one. The whole cast were called back again and again; and the play is mentioned as the very best a graduating class has put on in the Main Avenue Auditorium. JANUARY 26, 1921 FEBRUARY ’21 COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES The night of the twenty-sixth of January was an important one for the members of the February ’21 class. The commencement exercises, one of the most solemn, and impressive ever held in the school, took place. The orchestra began with a selection by Massenet, “Scenes Pictoresques.” This difficult piece was rendered very well and deserved the rousing applause. Next came the Star Spangled Banner which the graduates sang. The presentation of the class by Mr. Howard followed. He said a number of very complimentary things about the class as a whole. Miss Ruby Perriman Hardin sang two beautiful selections, “From the Land of the Sky Blue Waters.” and “The Moon Drop Low;” both were enjoyed and appreciated by all. Dr. Rhodes introduced Dr. Bryan, who was the speaker of the evening. Dr. Bryan spoke on the “Meaning of Youth.” He talked fervently and impressively; and what he —19— said sank deeply into the hearts of those who heard him. A better speaker could not have been chosen for the occasion. Miss Sarah Karcher next rendered the “Meditation from Thais,” on the violin. Miss Karcher has real talent and ability, as she has demonstrated several times when she has played at Main. The diplomas were presented by I)r. E. O. Evans; the scholarships, of which there were no less than nine, were given by Mr. Howard. Then the exercises were closed with a benediction by the Rev. Charles E. McStravick. JANUARY 28, 1921—CONGRESS BANQUET Here they were again! Those snappy members of the Congress Debating Club. And this time it was a banquet held at the Original Mexican Restaurant. The purpose of this banquet, which, by the way. is a semi-annual occurrence, was to celebrate victories in debate, declamation, oratory; to swear in new members; to bid farewell to old ones who are leaving; to get in touch with friends of the club. An unusually large number of Congressmen and their girl friends were present this time. Mr. Hofstetter was toastmaster of the occasion and he first called on Mr. Lewis for a toast on the loving cups the club has won. Mr. Frey next toasted the old officers, and Mr. Blair the new ones. After the new members had been sworn in, the meeting closed with some stirring words from Miss Combs, Miss Cleary, and Miss West, Mr. William Hankla, an ex-president, also gave a few words of praise and congratulations to his club. It was an all-round success and everyone enjoyed himself. FEBRUARY 3. 1921 An assembly was held to boost the Huisache and to present little gold footballs to the heroes of the M. A. H. S. squad. These little tokens were given them by the school in recognition of their splendid playing. In the nickname dialect, the receivers of the rewards were as follows: Bones (captain). Red. Cotton, Hokey, Archie, Mac. Rap, Bob, Willie, Johnny, Mamie, Cholly, Cotton 2nd, Bill, Terry and his Majesty, (the) King. FEBRUARY 25, 1921—PHIL. VAUDEVILLE The Philomathean Debating Club managed a real vaudeville, which was given in the form of a contest. The prize of ten dollars was awarded to the club of Main Avenue High School staging the best act. This performance was really worth-while event and deserved every bit of the support it received. All kinds of clever stunts were enacted on the stage. These were “A Winter Garden” by the Jeffersonian Literary Society; “The Tragedy” a wedding, by the Congress Debating Club; “An Evening in Mrs. Van Stufesant’s Home” by the Mark Twains; “1776- Hviip-ACHE 1921” by the Shakespeares; “Current Art” by the Art Club; “At Gray Thornes” by the Hayne Debating Club. All of these were just as clever as they could be and each received a burst of applause. Especially humorous was “The Tragedy” in which Mr. Curtis Meeks was the blushing bride and Mr. Joe Kingsley the nervous bridegroom. The marriage service beginning, “We are about to hitch a team”, caused much hilarity. The Fates seemed to favor the Art Club, for the vote was in their favor. Miss Natalie Forsythe announced the winner at the close of the performance. MARCH 1718, 1921—MAIN ENJOYS ART EXHIBIT A most interesting art exhibit was held at the school on Thursday and Friday. A great many local artist’s paintings were displayed. Lucy Maverick’s, R. J. Onderdonk’s George Benson’s, and Elizabeth Newton’s works all contributed to the completeness of the exhibit. There were several miniatures by Eugenia Price and Eleanor Onderdonk. Two busts by Elizabeth Eberle, a former student of Main and since a pupil of Coppini and Larado Taft, received a great deal of attention. Besides the originals, there was a collection of reproductions of works in European and American galleries. These were very popular, the room being always crowded. Nearly all the English classes paid a visit to this interesting display of art. Those, who didn’t go, missed something very worthwhile. MARCH 18, 1921 VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT GRADUATION This is the first of its kind to be held at Main Avenue High School. Six boys received their diplomas, as auto mechanics and machinists, from the vocational department. In the front hall hung a large photograph of the Buick touring car, which these enterprising boys completed from a dilapidated old one. Mr. Fox voiced warmly the praise of the boys, who performed such a commendable feat. The work was, with the exception of painting, done in the school shops by the boys themselves. The address was given by Mr. J. H. Holmgreen. president of the Alamo Iron Works, and concerned the need of a vocational school in San Antonio. Mr. N. S. Hunsdon, State supervisor for vocational education, delivered a talk on the Smith-Hughes bill and how it could help the vocational training in Texas. The exercises were enlivened by a violin solo by Joe Karcher, and a saxophone solo by Oscar Dewees. The graduates, having the honor of being the first to receive diplomas from the vocational department, were: Clarence Berger, John Boykin, Harold Eckenroth, L. B. Holder, Edward Dunkin and Lynn Allen. Long live and prosper the first to arrive! —21 — HVIiPACHE MARCH 22, 1921—THE AMAZONS This clever and amusing play was the production of a combined Hayne and Dramatic cast. When there is hidden talent at Main, these plays always find it and bring it to light. The cast and coach. Miss Daisy Briggs, Miss Stone, and Miss Bryan, the sponsors of both clubs, all worked together admirably to make a grand success, and such it. was. Miss Stella Vodrie, as a stately marchioness of Castlejordan, was especially attractive. Her three boyish daughters, Misses Ada Lee Shuler, Elizabeth Maxwell, and “Peggy” Mitchell, were splendid actresses and showed marked masculine traits. Then there were three very good boy actors, Messrs. Harrison Pollard, Oscar McCracken, and Harold Shaw. Miss Cozette Lawrence was an athletic trainer. The servants and family adviser took their parts to great advantage. The two clubs, with such clever acting and capable management, gave the audience a very enjoyable evening. Amazons? Yes. _ 22___ 23— HVIiP-ACHE Interclub Contests DEBATING Years ago a public-spirited citizen of San Antonio presented Main Avenue with a cup for debating and each year a debating contest has been held between the various clubs to determine who shall keep the cup until the following year. This year, for the first time, the girls—the Philomathean Debating Club—entered the contest; the boys’ clubs were; Congress. Hayne, and Jeff. Each one choose a first, second, and third team, which were: Philomatheans—First team, Etta May Price and Dama Jones; second team, Anita Brenner and Natalie Forsyth; third team, Mina Alvord and Louise Ryan. Congress—First team. Hyman Plenn and Julian Blair; second team, Robert Col-glazier and Stanley Slavens; third team. Clovis Coffman and Harry Frey. Hayne—First team, Harrison Pollard and Spurgeon Mansfield; second team. Joe Sparks and Sam Maltzman; third team, Carvel Hunter and Britton McCall. Jeffs—First team. Carl Evans and Ellis Albaugh; second team, Robert Thomas and Albert King; third team, Russell Harpole and Leslie Evans. The first teams debated the state subject—'‘The Open versus Closed Shop;” the second teams had the subject, Resolved; That the Initiative and Referendum should be adopted in Texas;” the third teams debated the question Resolved; That the President should be elected by popular vote.” Debates were held on the first, tenth, and seventeenth of December. The standing of the clubs after each contest was as follows: December 1 December 10 December 17 Won Lost Won Lost Won Lost Phils 3 0 5 1 6 3 Congress 2 1 4 2 7 2 Hayne 1 2 2 4 4 5 Jeff 0 3 1 5 1 8 ORATION AND DECLAMATION Main also has cups for oratory and declaiming for which, after the excitement of the debating contest has subsided, contests are held each year between the boys’ clubs. In the oratorical contest the orations were written by the speakers. Each club entered one contestant and this year Congress carried off the cup, John Bailey of that club being judged the best. The entries from the clubs were: Hayne—Pascal Buckner. Congress—John B. Bailey. In the declamation contest the speeches were not original but by some prominent man or woman. Oscar McCracken, of the Haynes won the contest this year. The other contestant was Clifford Forster of Congress. —24— HyiipAegj Inter Scholastic Contests The debating and declamation contest was held at Main Avenue and was one that will always he remembered as the most exciting of events. It was particularly thrilling because we had for our opponent a most worthy one, Brackenridge. The girls declamation and hoys debate were set for the afternoon. Brackenridge filed in and occupied their alloted space. Main did the same. Pandemonium reigned. Brackenridge cheered, then Main out cheered them. Mr. Johnston, principal of B. H. S. introduced the speakers. Miss Leona Bridge. Main’s representative, was the first speaker. From the minute she stepped upon the platform, the atmosphere was one of breathless suspense. We knew she would win. But Brackenridge was also backing her declamer, Miss Dorothy Cooper. The boys debate came next. Main was represented by Mr. Milton Schneider and Carl Evans who supported the negative side of the question “Resolved. That a movement for an open shop in Texas subserves the best interests of the State and should be supported by public opinion”, while the affirmative was upheld by Mr. Roland Voight and Julius Nafach of Brackenridge. The contest was soon over and the “honorable judges” as Carl so often addressed them, rendered their decisions in favor of Main’s representative in declamation, Miss Bridge, and Brackenridge in debate. The boys declamation and girls debate were held that night. Mr. Oscar McCracken and Murrell Stockton of Main and Brackenridge were the contestants in declamation. Miss I)ama Jones and Anita Brenner of Main Avenue upheld the negative side of the same question that had been debated in the afternoon. The affirmative was supported by Miss Winifred Schuetz and Miss Kathleen Thompson. That debate was a thing of beauty and therefore as Keats says, “A joy forever”. Dama with her dignity and Anita with her pep made a perfect team. The judges gave their decision in favor of our girl debaters and Mr. Stockton of Brackenridge in declamation. This decision left Main and Brackenridge “even”. The honors were divided equally in favor of Main’s GIRLS and Brackenridge’s boys. The district meet was held in San Marcos. Main was represented by Miss Leona Bridge in declamation and Miss Dama Jones and Anita Brenner in debate. Even though Leona lost, her efforts were not wasted as she will probably declaim next year and win. Dama and Anita debated the teams from Staples and Luling and after two rather hotly contested debates, beat them both. —25— -26— HARRY FREY MADALYN EDGINGTON ELIZABETH MAXWELL OSCAR MCCRACKEN JOYCE GARRETT GORDON LEWIS ■■■■■I Sponsors MR.KAY MISS BRAWNER MR.M9D0NALD MISS BRUNET PHOTO BY SMITH THE JUNE OFFICERS OUR SPONSORS OSCAR McCRACKEN..........................President MISS BRUNET ELIZABETH MAXWELL ..................Vice-President MISS BRAWNER (Huisache) MADALYN EDGINGTON .......................Secretary MR.

Class Poem Like chosen flowers in fresh bouquet Our Class has gathered here, For this occasion marks the day When, vivid bright and clear, Our flying colors, Red and White, Are gayly waving high, While laurels fresh o’er us alight To praise and glorify. Indeed we proudly stand today, For we have won the prize That’s worth far more than words can say And that we realize; So thankful hearts we bear for all Who made our road so clear, So short and sweet, without a fall; We love you far or near. Our faithful loyal teachers all Whose faith in Youth holds true Our Class forever will recall, For they, sweet honey-dew So rare, so pure, by far more sweet Than that which stars bv night On flowers leave where kisses meet, Gave us for labors light. Our Alma Mater’s paths so dear, Her ever cheerful halls, Where voices sweet we joyed to hear Resounding on the walls; Where all are filled, that come and go, With pure unstinted glee That swells the hearts and makes them grow, Are always sweet and free. Since we must part and leave today The place we hold so dear We feel we’re more than living clay; That we cannot veneer With smiles sublime and solemn truth; For we are sad to part— To leave the dearest home of Youth Where grows the Mind and Heart. But we will keep a niche for you That time cannot betray, Where that and those we love so true Can never fade away. Now, Class and friends, here part our ways; Aim high as high can be And let the future bring more days Of true PROSPERITY. —33— —Magdalene Rodriguez, Class Pod.

Never greatly excited over anything, she calmly pursues her path. LOUISE WAY—“Louisc”—Assistant Editor Annual. Louise has a full supply of energy and enthusiasm. Attractive, always efficient in whatever she undertakes, and unselfish; this is Louise. ANNA MAE ARMOUR—“Kitten”.

But really aren’t you a trifle old fashioned, or do you revel in long skirts. FRANCES MORRISON—“Frances” A kind of enamel smoothness surrounds her.

ARCHIE SCOTT—“8 cot tie”—Huisache and Annual Athletic Editor: Basket Ball Team ’21; Track Team 21; Students Council; Football Team ’20; Congress. Archie was a determined and willing worker in Basket Ball and Football. TEDDY FLINT—“Teddy” His crowning glory is the envy of every straight haired girl in school.

She loses it frequently hut it never stays away long. She hates business and Add Manager does take up one’s time so.

You are alright Ruth “Give to the world the best you have and the best will come back to you.” JOSEPH WEBB—“Joe” “Does anyone in here know Joe Webb? — asked of the usual Huisache Office mob. “Uh hug. he’s little and quiet, smart in English, Geometry and everything.” Nuf sed. STANLEY SLA VENS— Stan” —Vice President Congress ’21; Interclub Debate. No one has ever accused Stanley of being goodlooking. All the same he made an adorable girl in the Phil vaudeville.

Her disposition is like the sunshine. Troubles flee when she arrives. LOIS HANKINS—“Sheet”—Dramatic; Class Play. “Jazz” personified! Whenever delicious “Jazz” music floats thru the halls, everyone sighs and says “That’s Lois Hankins playing the piano. No one else can play that way.” OTTO MACKENSON—“Otto” Here is the visage of Otto—son of the noted naturalist. Of course he is distinguished. Who wouldn’t be? There are no boasts from Otto. He is the quiet type, but then “still waters run deep.” BLIX HANKINS—“Speck —Dramatic; Class Play. Whenever Blix joins a crowd enthusiasm picks up with a bound. As the blackfaced comined ienne in the Phil vaudeville she was a genuine hit. She truly interprets the darky. —37— k' Photo by Smith Photo by Smith GLADYS PALMER—“Billie”—Students Council; Phils. When needs be she is serious and capable. Gladys has made many friends. She is a plugger, puts her heart into her work and carries on with a vim. MARJORIE MURRAY—“Margie”—Dramatic. A smile, a curl and a breezy disposition grace Maggie and give her an attractive personality. PASQUALE GALLERANO— Patay Is your name French, Irish or Greek? Why haven’t you loomed up larger in class affairs Patsy? You are entirely to much of a recluse. JACK McGHEENEY—“Jack “My double and how he undid me”, suits Jack to a “T”. He is a twin.

MARIAN GOOI)E—“Marian”—Shakespeare If all of us had your good looks and ability to make 95’s. we would indeed be happy. LYNN MrCARTY—''Patty —Parliamentarian Art Club. Observe the countenance.

We have all come to like her and wish for her the best the world has to offer. —38— Photo by Smith Photo by Smith Photo by Smith BEULAH GEORGES— “Andy —Dramatic Treasurer 21. She is not an angel but a human being in angel form. Demure and sweet—that’s Beulah. We don’t know what her aspirations are, but we back her to the limit. ETTA MAE PRICE—“Bobbie”—Phil; Interclub Debate. Well in the first place there’s her awful line. Her possibilities for chatter are unlimited— but Etta Mae is a human being and we all have our little failings. DELBERT HICKS—“Delbert” Delbert is a boy who can stand the acid test. Inspired with the highest of a strong per sonality, he has always worked for the best interests of Main. CHARLES ST.

Just see all the things she is Vice-President of. HAZEL FUQUAY —“Hazel'' Hazel can cook. She is good natured and has the ability to make people like her. Such a combination would turn an ordinary person’s head. Not Hazel, she’s too sensible. WILLIAM WINCKLER— Bill —Students’ Council President. Serious minded is the President of the Students’ Council. A hard worker on anything he starts, he pursues his ideas until opposition is overcome. JAMES A. GALLAGHER—‘Vimmir “Hello Jimmie” how’s the boy? Fine, only we think he is too popular. His tired eyes bespeak late hours—or is the surmise incorrect? Perhaps it is of a free Ireland he is dreaming. Gallagher sounds suspicious. CHRISTINE VANDER STUCKEN— -Mouxr” — Students’ Council. Irresistible Christine, bubbling over with fun and good cheer. In Geometry, “Mouse isn’t the word to describe her, but that doesn't worry her for long. FAYDETTE TALLEY—“Baby Fo ”—Girls’ Athletic Association. Her mother named her after a heroine in a book. She has grown up that way. Upon seeing Faydette one is instantly reminded of covers on Colliers or the Cosmopolitan.

Open-hearted and good-natured. “Slim” is liked and respected by all. KENNETH HUBER—‘‘Slim”—Hayne; Four Minute Speaker. Kenneth needs no introduction. As the handsomest boy in school he is known to all. A harmless creature except where the ladies are concerned. One glance and they all flutter and flop. LEN MrFARLANE—“Len’’ Another fuzzy haired individual. It may, with all truth be said that she contains a 100 full measure of pep. MARY BRUNER— Jeff —Students Council; Mark Twain ’20.

Although he never shouts he has a line that is guaranteed to bring any cow on a gallop. But it never hurts the cow because Reg never drinks anything but—. ETHEL MARTIN—“Ethel” When things go against her, she floats a composure that makes the statue of liberty seem flurried. ANNE SMITH—“Mike Anne leaves us for a wild plunge into the future. Never voicing any ambitions, she gives no clue as to what her aspirations are. She will be remembered as a pleasant companion. HOWARD PADGETT—“Pooffe” Howard has a smile that looks like the entrance to a gold mine. It’s rich. He can enjoy a good grind to the utmost and won’t even hesitate to laugh at a bad one. MILTON SCHNEIDER Secretary Con- gress; Vice-President “Los Amigos”; Interscholastic Debating Team. Milton is the kind of boy who can always get the best results whether debating against Brackenridge or talking politics to a lightning rod agent. PHILIP ADELMAN—“Phil” Philip has a beautiful line. We wonder if it runs in the family. MILDRED McGOLDRICK—“Mildred” There is a charm about Mildred one cannot define. She is never in a hurry or flurry, but pursues life in an unruffled manner. Oh those lovely dimples. .JOSIE LEONARD— “Joe' Did you ask who that girl is with the mischievous grin and flaring red hair? Why that’s “Joe”. Believe me, boys, when they turn her loose there will be some dust raised. ALICE SCHNELL—“Alice”—Circulation Manager Annual.

JEAN HOLLAND—“Jennie —Shakespeare, President 21; Students’ Council; Executive Committee, “Twelfth Night.” Jean has always carried a stern and serious mien with her. Yes. ever since she was a froslilet. But her high standing in her classes more than makes up for all seriousness. CARLOS NAUSCHUETZ— “Carlos” — Congress; Students’ Council; Huisache Literary Staff; Assistant Editor Annual; Class Play. Carlos is an able talker and he delights in friendly discussions. Stubborn to the point of obstinacy and a hard worker when interested. He is an independent thinker. LOUIE GOETHEL—“Lottie” Beyond saying that he is exceedingly courteous. he is almost indescribable. We wonder if his frigid nature is due to the fact that he has worked in an ice plant? HARRISON POLLARD—“Tween ”—Annual Editor; Vice-President Hayne '20. President ’21; “Amazons”; Inter-Club Debate. “We never eat.” Though interpreting the weakling in the “Amazons” Harrison is shown in true light by being the Editor in Chief of this Annual. His ability speaks for itself. MABEL BILLINGSLEY— “J cfte ” —Shakespeare Club Twelfth Night. Mabel will always be remembered as Malvolio in Tewlfth Night and also as being able to interpret Shelley.

Everyone adores Dama even if she does make the highest grades in school. WALTER FRANKS—“Walt” It is as a friend in need that he has endeared himself to us. When in the days to come, some one has to send an S. O. S. call, he will indeed be lucky if Walter is near enough to answer it. Photo by Smith —42— Photo by Smith DOROTHY DAR ROUGH— “Dorothy —Dramatic Club ’20. Anyone speaking of Dorothy says “That’s a bright girl”. Previous statement correct. Even though austere in her bearing, we feel that Dorothy can smile. HELEN McCOY—“Happy Her nickname is “Happy”. That word fits Helen to a “T”. Few and far between are those who have seen her downhearted. Loyal to herself and those she loves—Helen will always be a genuine friend. FRANK O'NEILL—“Frank If academic laziness were a virtue Frank would be resplendent with halos. He has done as little studying as anyone in the class. At heart Frank is a truly pleasant and likable chap. ELLIS ALBAUGH—“El —President Jeffs; Students’ Council; Cadet Corps, major, ’21; Basket Ball Team. He must be pretty good or popularity would not be one of his attractions. Ellis is also a Basket ball shark. Have you watched him at the games? Wasn’t he a corker in that last glorious game with Brackenridge? HELEN HOLDER— Hay —Main Ave. Friendship Club. Though she may be a passive and guileless looking blond she can tear up the earth with a vengeance when things go against her. MADALYN EDGINGTON— “Dimples —Dramatic Club, June Class Secretary. “Dimples” has a host of friends and never an enemy. She is always filled to the brim with happiness and fun.

AGNES TERRELL—“Aggum —Shakespeare Club. Athletics are interesting aren’t they Agnes? Particularly basket ball captains. Boys have you ever danced with her? If not by all means do it. She’s a wonder. Photo by Smith —43— Photo by Smith MABEL BLOCK HAUSEN—“Babe”—Students Council; Dramatic Club, Annual, Personals and Alumni. Behold Babe, the cheerful infant of the June Class. Her sunny smile keeps cheerfulness in the terrible chaos of the meetings and her disposition is one of her strong points. GENEVRIA JOHNSTON—“Neva'' A dependable girl! You can always count on Neva. When Miss Chipman called for a pianist for the June Class play, Neva instantly reported. She is an accompanist of no mean ability. GEORGE GEYER—-“Gryo”—Jeffersonian Literary Society; Cadet Band. 1st Sergeant; Class Play. When it comes to pitching a cabbage from the audience at a certain fat Phil. Vaudevillian he is THERE. Let George do it—he did! GEORGE LEKOES— George As a Physics shark George adorns the world (not). He sometimes has difficulty in conveying his ideas to Mr. Pfeiffer on account of the intricacies of our American lingo. He is a gracious boy with gentleness and neatness among his virtues. VIRGINIA CRIBB—“Virginia” Here’s another we don’t hear much about. She certainly has kept herself in the background of class activities. The best luck ever, Virginia! JAMIE BELL—“Baby Heir Though she is plentifully supplied with freckles and has a woebegone look when in public speaking class. Jamie is a fine girl. BRADLEY HUSTON—Basket ball Team.

BERNARD WEBBER—“Bernard” Though being loved by the ladies is his chief fault and missing all June meetings, another, he has kept up with the class by gazing at the Bulletin Board occasionally. LOUISE RYAN—“Louise —Phil. Secretary’ 21. When Gordon Lewis introduced his captured infant snake into the Huisache office one special day, everyone was petrified but Louise; calmly advancing on the brute, she said, “Why, I’ll pick it up”. Does that suffice? NORMA McKENZIE—u Hubs' —Shakespeare Club. Naturally curly dark hair, blue eyes and a lovely color makes her an attractive girl. GLADYS WARNOCK—‘'Twecdlc” Complacent, agreeable, yielding and docil. she has a clever little trick of winning out in her undertakings. ALTA HILEMAN—“Alta” Her beautiful brown eyes tell their own story. Speaking of soul movements, why her eyes register “Them things” continually.

ELLA MAE NORTH— Ella J ac” Her easy going temperament pursues its untrammeled course. She will meet all situations squarly and cooly.

A dear little tot who wears a big red sweater: she is seen at all the games, yelling, Come on Main”. ERNA ADA MS—“Errui Who is she anyway?” Nope never heard of her.” Thus is chronicled the history of Erna. HAROLD PICKLER—“Pick”—Congress. Harold believes in standing up for his own rights and despises to see the rights of others walked upon. ESTHER PIZZINI — Esterita” Esterita as she is called, says very little. But is that necessary when the face reflects every thought? With her ability to mimic, Esther ought to go on the stage. DOROTHY WILLIAMS—“Ducky”—Dramatic. This little girl has a record for gossip and chatter, but it is a harmless and amusing kind, so people like to listen. She is quite a sociable companion. THERESA HAS LB A U E R—“Til crcs r ’ So quietly and demurely has she spent her school days that we hardly knew she was one of us. Her smile sends a radiance of love and kindliness.

Yet her tasks are always completed—even better than those of the people who blow. Photo by Smith —45— Photo by Smith DOROTHY JACKSON—“Dot”—Dramatic Club. A delightful «irl. What else should be said?

JACK RAYHOURN— Jack” Have you ever seen Jack tackle a hard geometry proposition? He always gets it no matter how difficult. WILLIAM K. BROWN—“Will” Have you heard Will play the violin? He’s a wonder. Now don’t misunderstand me and think him a dreamy musician. His grade cards are proof enough to the contrary. ROSSY MEADOWS—“� Slis”—Main Avenue Friendship Club. She wears freckles and carries about with her a comfortable atmosphere. It is a pity that Rossy hasn’t gone about more among us. CHRISTINE CRAVEY—“Christina She can keep them all guessing. That delightful subdued manner is truly enchanting. Just what are her intentions? Well, we are in the dark. CORA BELLE HART—“Dear Harr—Dramatic Club; Art Club. Cora Belle sports enough “Frat Pins” to sink a battle ship. She says they’re her brothers— now we wonder!!!!!! KEITH HUBER—“Keith”—Hayne Debating Club Four Minute Speaker.

Just what is it you are musing about. Please come back to earth. You make me nervous. LOUISE MUENZENBERGER—“Louise” Louise has a very learned air. Because of her natural reticence and uncommunicativeness few of us have truly appreciated her capabilities. GLADYS HEDGES—“Gladle Modest little Miss Hedges is in a class of her own. There is no one like her in the whole June Class. Her baby blue eyes and pretty smile portrays to us an incomparable disposition. EDWIN CRABTREE—“Edwin”—Rifle Club. Executive Officer. Although Edwin is more or less of a puzzle, there is one answer to the conundrum that always fits to-wit; he has won his way into the hearts of all of his associates. Photo by Smith —46— ■M Photo by Smith ESTELLE LIVINGSTON— Estelle'' “Mr. Chairman, Fellow Classmen, I will now etc.” Estelle raves on. An interesting talker. In the “clean-up campaign” Estelle did her part as a four-minute speaker. LUCILLE HICKEY—“L ucillc” Lucille has a most cordial and friendly greeting for everyone. Each acquaintance in turn is flattered by the singling out of himself as a recipient of such warmth and appreciation. RICHARD DAWSON—“Richard” Richard is a nice boy. He has never missed an opportunity to get as much out of Main as possible. This ability applies something very worthy in his makeup.

ELIZABETH MCDONALD—“Lizic” A dear little piece of fluff. She impresses one as a tiny kitten who will curl trustingly up in your lap and fall asleep. FRANKIE GRIMSINGER— “Fritz —Class Play. The boys can’t be blamed for flocking after you. That adorable smile and manner enchants them all. MELLIE FRANKLIN— “Mcllie” —Art Club Reporter. It takes a good while to penetrate her quiet exterior and find the real person who dwells within. RUTH HOLLEY—“Itnth' Ever see a quiet, subdued, modest, quaint, attractive girl who knows just heaps, while everyone else in class searches the ceiling for an answer? That’s Ruth. LORENA PAYNE—“Lorena” Many times have the relations between Lorena and the study hall teacher become strained, all due to her unauthorized chattering. But, leave it to Lorena, she is always ready for fun. Photo by Smith —47— photo by Smith CONNIE REDUS—“Connie” Connie is a slim princess. Tho quite willowy she is athletically inclined. (Tennis, golf, etc.) English is her strong point. Shakespeare says, “What’s in a name?” Evidently a lot as Connie’s name is Constance. OSCAR McCRACKEN—“.1 f c”—June '21 Class President; Major Cadet Corps ’20; Inter-Club Declamation; Chief of Police; “Amazons”; Students’ Council; Interscholastic Declamation: Hayne.

BORDEN WEDEMEYER—“SA'inity”—Class Play; Jeff Sergeant-at-Arms. A singer of no mean ability, Borden warbled his way thru the class play. His eye brows go just the right way to make him a cunning Jap. MAGDALENO RODRIGUEZ— Maggie9' —Annual and Huisache Proof Reader; Class Poet. “Maggie” is not given to blowing his own horn, however he has been a faithful worker on the Huisache and Annual. Our class poem is representative of his efforts. FLORENCE SHAW— Florence Florence reminds one of a mouse,—not a frisky little imp. but a rather reserved and timid one. She rarely volunteers to recite but when called upon, usually has a generous supply of knowledge. ESTELLA ELIZONDO— Estella As a magnet attracts, so does Estella. Her dark lustrous eyes seem to murmur to the would-be victim. “Follow the path of least resistance.” EUGENE OVENSHINE— Eugene99 “For Necessity’s Sake” he wrote a poem, the Huisache published it. One line of it he applies to himself. “Poesy is the senseless babble of dreamers and the lovesick, I can’t join this helpless rabble; My mind is truly prosaic.” STELLA YODRIE—“Si ”—Dramatic Club Vice-President; Annual Joke Editor; “Amazons”: Class Play. “A derby hat, a little Paige.

Students' Council; Reporter Con Kress '21; Chief of Huisache Editorial Staff; Class Play. When once started, watch out; he’s like a Ford; he never knows when to stop.

MYRTLE SULLIVAN— Myrtle” There is always her type in every school. What a necessary one it is. She is a plodder, a faithful worker and a trustworthy friend. What else need be said?

EDITH WHITAKER—“Edith 1 Who would ever suspect such a tiny, submissive bundle of being able to master lengthy and complex geometry originals? FRANCES PAYNE—“Frances Cheerfulness, indifference, to the opinion of others, and stubborness are hers. Frances has the happy faculty of hiding opposition under tact, and her suave line usually gets her what ever she is after. ADELAIDE GOODENOUGH —“Goodie”—Giris’ Athletic Association. She’s O. K. until you trample on her rights. Then, Caesar’s ghost, watch out! She is a holy terror. MELVA FANSET—“Melva Speaking of athletics, why Melva eats ’em up. The June class is playing a mean trick on the G. A. A. by taking her away this year. LOGAN STEPHENSON—“Logan Hailing from the metropolis of Yoakum, somewhere in Texas, comes Logan. He has developed a talent for asking questions that keep everyone on the jump. Added to this, he has a fund of dry humor that is always amusing. BETH MOODY—“Beth” Here is a girl who can swim, play golf, tennis and ride horse back. She does them all 100r c, too. MARGARET GREEN—“Margaret”—Class Play. We can never say that Margaret lets credits worry her. Life is too short. A few less makes no difference. But can she sing? Say, you should hear her warble, “Drink to me only with thine eyes.” ABELARDO MARTINEZ—“Abclardo Abelardo will be remembered by his unruffled pompadour, spats, and inevitable neatness. He is always the same, smiling and attentive. A lady’s man. first, last and always. DEAN PORTER—“Dean” A good fellow, always ready for a bit of excitement. His social calendar is always full. VIOLA AYCOCK—“Viola” Viola’s soft brown eyes delude her classmates into believing that she is innocent of any critical ten dencies; but when she begins to analyze, the most person will perceive that red hot judgments are flung around. • LEROY BATES—“Skinny” One’s first impression is that this infant is slow, quiet, and hard to know. On the contrary, he is quite the opposite. After a short friendship you feel that you have known him a long time. JACK Db BRUIN—“Jack” Another arrow collar hero! At games, dances, or on any occasion we see Jack with his girl, or I should say, girls. We don’t know much about his math or history records, but he gets by. Anyway, with such a good nature and cheerful smile, why worry? RICHARD F. CORRIGAN—“R. F.” Extremely democratic is R. F. He is a prominent fellow in the Cadet Corps, handsome and popular with both genders. HERBERT BOOTH—“Herbert He has always been a happy mixture of efficiency and indifference, of freedom from worry and deter initiation. “What’s the odds so long as you’re happy”? ROLAND WILKINSON—“RohnuV Nay. do not let me play with a woman. I have a beard coming,” drawled forth William in Public Speaking Class. He is simply delicious in any part he portrays, from scrub woman to Othello. CORNELIA WOOD—“Cornelia” And she drapes her hair over her ears. Please don’t be angry Cornelia, because they all do it Yours is especially noticeable because it’s curley.

We hope that the inhabitants of this abode will, as we did, take good care of first, the paste; second, the office ink; third, the office paper; fourth, the office furniture; and fifth, the office’s cleanliness. —50— Some of the individuals of the class have been so considerate as to bestow their worldly effects and possessions individually and separately as follows: I, Oscar McCracken, the President of the June ’21 (‘lass give and bequeath all of my natural charm and beauty to the President of the Feb. ’22 Class together with my ability to manage successfully our small class of only two hundred.

While the 1920 football season was one of the most successful seasons it was at the same time the most disappointing season experienced by a Main Avenue team in a long time. Of the nine games played, five were won by overwhelming scores, three were lost by closs scores and one was tied. Austin High, San Marcos Academy and Bracken-ridge were successful in downing the red and white warriors. The defeats by Austin and San Marcos were greatly to be regretted of course but they were quickly forgotten. The defeat by Brackenridge was a surprise and shock to everyone and was bitter medicine to take. No season can ever be a complete success unless we succeed in defeating our deadly rivals of the southside. When practice started in late September the future looked rosy indeed and prospects for a championship team were favorable. Ten letter men of the past years squad were on hand with quite a large number of other promising players. With only about ten days in which to pick his team. Coach Winchester Kelso Jr. started work with the squad and when the season opened he sent his team into the game against the Academy and held them to a scoreless tie. Besides having two weeks start in practice the academy team was composed of several All-Academic men from the different schools of the city. Little trouble was experienced in defeating West Texas Military Academy and even the second team kept them on the run. Austin won over Main by playing a steady game HUIiPACHE throughout the time while the red and white let up twice and Austin scored each time. One week later Main lost to San Marcos Academy in a game played on a muddy field which greatly handicapped the fast backfield from high school. Shortly afterward. Pea cock Millitary College was swamped by the highest score roled up in the Academic League 77 to 0. St. Louis College and St. Anthony’s College were walloped in quick succession by goodly scores. The Brackenridge game was a surprise to all. On account of the erratic work of several players the purple and white managed to shove across the line for a touch down, the first and only one to be scored against Main in the Academic league for the 1920 season. The season was concluded when Main invaded FloresviHe and defeated them 40 to 6 in a game in which every player starred. Great credit is due Coach Kelso for his untiring work with the squad. Several of the most prominent football men in the state remarked upon the thorough coaching that the team exhibited. Not within several years has such a strong team represented Main as did represent it during the past season and it will be many moons before another of its calibre will abide here. This team was not made up of just eleven men only. Coach Kelso had seventeen or eighteen men that fitted into his football ma Coach Winchester Kelso chine equally well. He had seven men in the back-field, each one fast, and each one could be depended to star whenever they played. McCoy, Stevenson, Phillips. Scott and .Jersig could be counted on to gain ground at any time while Wendland and Wyatt ran the team in a wonderful fashion. This backfield was about the fastest in the city. With five speedy players scrapping for the end positions throughout the season little could be desired in that department. Hinman, Palmer, Votaw, Rathbun and Kerr kept things hot on their positions. Main’s stonewall which was composed of Irvin, Nami, Meitzen, Waugh, Hornaday and King was the most dependable line of any of the schools in the city. Jackson. Dunsmore and Webb were able line substitutes and could be depended upon. Four members of the team were picked for the All-Academic team. Irvin. McCoy, Nami and Palmer were the deserving ones. 1920 RECORD Main.............................. 0 Main..............................45 Main.............................. 0 Main.............................. 6 Main..............................77 Main............................. 16 Main..............................27 Main.............................. 0 Main..............................40 San Antonio Academy .................. 0 West Texas Military .................. 0 Austin High School ...................14 San Marcos Academy ...................19 Peacock Military...................... 0 St. Louis College..................... 0 St. Anthony’s College................. 0 Brackenridge.......................... 7 Floresville High...................... 6 HVIiP-ACHE Wend land, captain, Miller.

The 1921 season was one of the most unusual season.; ever gone through by a Main Avenue team. The team got away to a disasterous start, winning only four out of the first six games and seeming to be completely out of the race for the honors. But this scrappy ageregation staged one of the prettiest comebacks ever witnessed in basket ball circles of the city and defeated St. Mary’s College for the title of the North side section of the league. Not content with this honor they defeated Brackenridge High the run or up for the state basket ball title, two games out of three in the big championship series and thereby won undisputed right to the city academic title. The team did not begin to working well until the latter part of the season when Coach Henry Gott-wald finally got the members working in earnest and from then on they played a fine brand of basket ball. Coach Gottwald deserves a great deal of credit for turning out a championship team with as many handicaps as he had to face. Gildbert Wendland, captain of the team played a steady game throughout the season and was the star of the final series. William Miller, at forward was the leading point gainer of the team averaging twelve points in each game. Ellis Albaugh. Archie Scott, and Clarence Dolan alternated at center during the season and played a steady game at guard also. Bradley Huston proved to be a valuable man for one of the guard positions. Gilbert Santacruz. at forward and Leslie Pfeiffer at guard were able substitutes and did some excellent playing while in the game. The entire team with the exception of Leslie Pfeiffer, leaves school in June and will be greatly missed for next year’s team. Many promising players will be on hand and the team for next year gives promise of being able to folow in the steps of the past two teams and to win another city academic championship.

The dual meet with Rrackenridge was lost for tin lack of runners for the relay team. The relay decided tin- outcome of the meet and tin- southslders won. Howard Kiser, star hurdler, and Captain of the team was unable to take part in the meet and this greatly weakened Main. Curtis Meeks and Archie Scott were high point men for Main the former making 11 points and the latter 10. The records made in the meet this year are better than those made last year with hardly an exception. Meeks tossed the javelin 127 feet which is the city record. Kathhun threw the discus an even me feet. In the high jump Kicholtz of Rrackenridge-cleared the bar at 5 feet 7 inches while Scott of Main made f feet (1 inches. Forgason put the shot 28 feet. The track events were very fast hut no accurate time was taken on them. Leslie Pfeiffer, the half miler won his event at the District Meet and will represent Main at the A. M. College meet and at the Inter-Scholastic meet in Austin. Roland Rath-bun won the Discus and will attend both meets also. Howard Kiser. Curtis Meeks and Archie Scott will go to the meet at A. M. Main is assured of having a team that will he worthy of the State Championship for next year provided they get a good coach because the entire team with tin exception of Kiser. Scott, and Stevenson will return. TENNIS Main Avenue won the city tennis championship this year in boy's singles and doubles. George (Jeyer won tin singles for Main, and he and Clifton Wilkinson also took the doubles. The girls singles went to It. II. S.. and we won the doubles in the persons of Myrtle llinman and Sibyl Vedder. As it poured on the day of the city contest, the contestants went to the V. W. C. A., and after a little practice, started to play. Roth schools finished their elimination, and then the contest began with boy’s singles. George took this in a deuce set. Roth the boys played hard, but finally George’s game proved the better. Next came girl’s singles. Ruby, of R. H. S.. won this from Sibyl Vedder. She played a good game and knew the value of good placing. Then the boys took the floor and played a long doubles game. It was a fast hard game, and well worth seeing. Finally we won. after a hard fight. By this time it was dark and late, but the gill's doubles had to be played, so the lights were put on and they started in determined to win for Main, and they put it over in two sets. Playing on an Indoor court is hard, as they discovered. The halls bounce high and the walls have a disconcerting habit of getting in the way. Next day thev went to San Marcos, but lost out. The courts were impossible and the players tired'. Better luck to the representatives next year. —81— iraiipACHE Baseball TOP ROW—Patino. Coach Wasserman. Goforth. Photo by Smith MIDDLE ROW—Kerr, Meeks. Evans, West. Driver. Fletcher. Evans. BOTTOM ROW—Irvin. Palmer, Schaezler. Anderlitch. McCoy. Phillips, captain. The 1921 baseball season at Main Avenue has been the most disasterous season experienced In many years. At tlie opening of the season there was promise, hut with the first defeat the team started slipping and has continued, losing the majority of their games. One of the chief causes of this has been the lack of support of the team by the school. The students not only failed to support the team financially but would not attend • he games. If Main ever expects to put out another winning team, that team will have to be supported both financially and morally. Leslie Wasserman, a member of the team in 1918. as coach has worked wonders with the team and has developed one of the fastest infields in the city. The infield is composed of Homer West, who grabs ’em all. Willie Palmer cuts capers around second base and has a keen batting eye, Bill Phillips, captain of the team, plays shortstop and specializes in sensational stops, while Vic Sehaezler has charge of the hot corner around third base and handles it in great style. Harry Anderlitch. Bones Irvin and Gilbert Santas cruz are three classy fielders who get everything in sight and then some. With Goforth, Meeks and Evans doing duty on the mound little can be desired in the hurling department. Driver did most of the catching for the team and did a good job of it. though McCoy caught the first games of the season and Ketchum caught too. Patina. Fletcher and Thompson proved themselves dependable substitutes. The best thing about the season is that the entire team with one exception will be back next year and can be ocunted on to cop the flag.

Lower Row: Ethel Wiggs, Lorena Payne, Gladys Talley (captain), Etoyle White, Grade Cocke. GIRL’S BASKET BALL The girls have played four games this term, not with the hope of winning for they have had no coaching, but just to show that they are good sports and can lose as well as they won last year. The first game played was with the Turner Hall team. The girls had had no practice, and did very well considering that. What boy’s team could play without coaching or practice? Then after one day rest they tackled the fast Y. W. C. A. team that always puts up such a hard fight. They tried hard, but the Y team was in fine condition and had their passing down pat. The cross passing in the center won the game for them. The Lady of the I ake was the next team played. They were the gamest of sports when we beat them all to pieces last year, so we showed them we could be, too. All told, the girls did well, and they got a great deal of fun and good exercise while playing. Alamo Heights is the game to their credit. They won from them and so showed what they could have done with proper training. HVIiP-ACHE —85— 7 he photographic work n this A nnual has been very satisfactorily done by the Smith’s Studio.

It offers greater opportunities for advancement than any other line of work, not excluding the more popular professions.

Study hard? Walter Jones: Yes, ma’am. What kind of History, United States, Ancient, Modern or what? Walter Jones: I don’t know yet. we’ve only been at it about three months and my hook hasn’t any cover.

Bob Thomas: Suppose there was a Russian Jew living in England with an Italian wife, smoking Egyptian cigarettes near a French window in a room with a Turkish rug on the floor. If this man drank American icecream soda, while listening to a German Band play “Come hack to Erin” after a supper of Dutch cheese made up as Welsh Rarebit, then we might he quite safe in saying that he was r 'mo-politan. He: I wonder what you wear in Heaven? She: I know what I’ll wear if I see you there. He: What? She: A surprised look. We fought for the freedom of Cuba in ’98 and now we have to go there to enjoy it.

Elizabeth M.: “Honestly?” “Well what difference does that make?’’ The other day a man dashed into the Katy Depot with just one minute to catch the train. “Quick give me a round trip ticket”, he gasped. “Where to”, said the clerk. “Back here, you fool”.
