In this group of thoughts we haue endeauored to the best of our abilities, to portray for you, as uiuidly as possible, the joys, the pleasures and the real true spirit of high school life. As each day brought its touches of pleasure and joy, confused with care and strife, we learned to loue it all, the lining spirit of Main Auenue Htqh School. □ ©EDHCATIION 19 19 r HE year 1923 will be placed in history as King Tutankhamen’s '“'L year; for every where have Ihe words “’King CTut’’ been on people’s lips. The Staff this year, has consequently made the Annual a King Tut Book. However, within our school, it has been a Museum Ijear”; so the staff carries out the wishes of those whose hopes are brightest for the future years of Main Avenue High School by dedicating this King Tut Book, the 22 volume of The Huisache Annual to MISS ELLEN D. SCHULZ loved and honored because of her untiring efforts in obtaining for us. our Main Avenue Hic h School Museum. In silent grandeur by the Nile, For age on age the watch you’ve kept; And empires rose and waxed the while, And then in History’s folds have crept. The creeping centuries that saw The birth of Greece, and Rome’s decay, Were but as beads you counted, slow And solemn, at the close of day. You saw the cedars tall that grew On Leb’non’s slopes, and there were felled And Moses marvelled what you knew, The while in Pharoah’s land he dwelled. You saw the son of Joseph named, And Mary’s eyes with weeping wet; You saw a shudd’ring world when flamed The scimiter of Mahomet! I will not ask you, then to tell The story of your vigil long; The secret that you guard so well Shall never burden earthly song. But when Life’s fires have ceased to glow, If Vergil’s shade I chance to meet; Or Dante’s spirit, whispering low, Shall lead me to Osiris’ seat, Perchance I’ll keep the watch awhile, With you, beside the River Nile. —John Henry Steulvvillc. y y T IT!! rr 7! TT H ? ?y : T! TffC 192 3 tft fSACffC Air At fntu M1C.M school OUR ALMA MATER t As you leave Main Avenue High Sehool for the last time, what pleasant memories are recalled! You think of all the old familiar places that you have seen day after day and never thought about; yet they seem to have made a deep impression upon your memory! You like to remember the cafeteria, where you had twenty-five minutes a day to eat hamburgers and peanuts, to step on everybody's feet and everyone on yours and still not to mind, and to gaze at all the teachers perfectly happy on their miniature stage. And the auditorium! Can’t you remember the many times you pushed and shoved to get a seat at assemblies, when you had such a glorious time talking; in the meanwhile snatching a minute or so to listen to the speaker. Surely you've had a study hall there, where you've developed your mind by trying to study, talk and watch the teacher ull at the same time. Hut your favorite pastime was the library. As you think of it you probably remember that chair farthest from the desk where you used to enjoy the period; or, if you were a bookworm you remember that favorite shelf from whose books you gained such a wealth of knowledge. 1 0 TffC f 23 ffVf-SACtfC.

You’ll remember the domestic science and manual training rooms, but a more prominent feature was the saw, which seemed to sound like the saw always in the corner near the sleeper in the comic sections, and which always seemed to correspond exactly to your humor. It was congenial to say the least! No one could forget the front hall—you passed there or danced there so many times that you’ll always want to remember it. Hut what Is that your eyes behold? The front steps—those steps to knowledge! You have sat or stood, baked or frozen there; you went up those steps when you entered Main and now you are leaving by the same ones. So, we beg you. always remember Main and your happy school days there; hut there Is no use entreating you to do so unless you haven’t already realized that you can’t forget so— we bid you good-bye and good-luck! Dkak Boys and Girls: German legend tells of an enchanted castle, over grown with flowers, the door of which is opened by the little key flower. In the interior is gold and silver and precious stones in profusion, and on the walls the inscription. “Take what you will, being careful to choose only the best.” The place, called the world, stands before you in all its crystal splendor. Its doors are to swing wide open through the electric current of the tiny key “self”, which you hold in your hand, and while your companions shiver on the threshold striving in vain to force the bolt by the key “luck”, “fortune”, “chance”, you yourself are in the mighty interior of the citadel, selecting and classifying, for you are to take what you will, being careful only to choose the best. Like all untrained and unsystematically trained people, the simple pea-ant boy of the legend thrust aside the real treasures of this dazzling world, and filled his pockets with glittering gems, only to find them turn at last to dry and withered leaves. His treasures were gone, for he had forgotten that, without which all else were worthless dross,—the little flower that bloomed on the hillside, the key to the beautiful. You will find the world, rich, beautiful, and pure, or poor, ugly, and miss-happen, according as you have learned aright or have missed the lessons of life; and are, or arc not able to apply those lessons in the days before you. The time of leaving the public schools for the battle of life is a period of profound expectancy and of fearful potency, inspiring to the young men and women, standing somewhat apart as they do, and yet ready to pass through the gate “Action”, into the mighty Amphitheater, the World. The hope of the nation and of civilization, rests on the fact that every springtime thousands of young people, with faith strong, hope bright, and ideals pure, “untainted as yet by the world’s slow stain,” go into business and professional life from the public schools of America. My message is a message to the young, to those whose hearts are the reflection of the divine optimism of the world, whose faces arc toward the light. I speak to young people who have the trust of innocency and the strength of virtue; who have laid fast hold on the Eternal, the purposeful, the Unchangable, the Unconquerable, the Unshackled. To such, and to such only, is the possession of the world’s treasures at all possible. fTfYTTTTHT? fT Tff€ f! 23 ffVfSACffC 11� «J fl 1«, jf ttt t y y 7 t TTTT TTT H1 TTT t1 ft TTTJ y fy t fyy TTT TT TT T MATfl AvicotJC tf foVf 3 C 100 7] Leadership soenis to le essential in any form of human society we have as yet evolved. The loader for whom we search is he who can inspire us to faith in a new idea and can enlist our aid in transmitting its promise into realty. It is to you Seniors that we have looked for leadership during the past year,—the most eventful year of your school career. It is to you that we shall look in the future for leadership fn our community. My hope is that as you leave high school you go equipped with enlist our aid in transmitting its promise into reality. three of the fundamentals upon which the principles of leadership are based: character, the ability to adapt yourself to conditions as they arise, and a realization of your responsibilities. Thus equipped, and inspired by your achievements in various school activities, you should go out as leaders to promote the interests of cur fiee schools, and to defend the principles of our democracy. Again it is Graduation time and again there are sorrowful good-byes and glad plans for future achievements. And so life rolls on—a day completed another planned ahead. Happy, he who plans wisely and joyously -who looks upon the ended day in peace of mind, and who enters upon the opening one ready to meet its demands with brave heart and strong will to do his best to achieve the best. You, boy, who is graduating --l e a man ami do a man’s work with all your strength. You, girl, he a woman and give a woman’s heart with all its splendor and sweetness. Hot each day be richer for your having lived it. With every wish for your happiness, 1 am always. Sincerely yours. TMtHIMIllMHUfUMIIIimmilUillimt!

We’ve labored hard, we’ve worked, we’ve hoped. Pray God we’ve done what’s right. It’s up to us to carry on, To carry on the fight. We “twenty-threes”, before we go, Would leave this with you too, He loyal to your High School, And she’ll play fair with you; And you the class of “Twenty-four”, Your heritage is “Main”. Iler reputation then is yours, Now keep it free from stain. You who would he remembered, Make for yourself a name; Take not your path from lowly roads, But set your mark on fame. Look then on life and laugh, And meet it face to face, For he who, fallen, battles on, Is he who wins the race. Farewell dear school, we'll ne’er repay, The debt we owe to you, And yet the time will never come, When we will prove untrue. Then, “Twilight and Evening Bell, And after that the dark; And may there be no sadness of farewell, When we embark.” —Talk Hicks, 1923 Class Poet.

THE JUNE BOOK OF PROVERBS E3 EALIZING that the Book of Proverbs in the Bible was formulated on the principle that every individual should have a proverb peculiarly adopted to his character, the Annual staff has followed this wise example by adapting peculiar proverbs to just such people. Elizabeth Marvin—A false balance is an abomination to the Lord; but a just weight is His delight. Raymond Banowsky—A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.

The largest and most beautiful was that of the Senior Class. With its Queen sitting high on her throne and her attendants in courtly array about her, brought many enthusiastic cheers from the people on the streets and especially the students of Main and Main's alumni. This float was so attractive that it took that ribbon for second place in the parade. Among the other wonderful floats were the Girl Reserve, a beautiful white float trimmed in blue with lots of Main’s prettiest girls beautifully dressed. The Student Council had an automobile covered with red and black poppies from the front bumper to the tail light and also carrying some of Main’s prominent boys and girls. The Mark Twain, another automobile covered with bright colors and filled with a real group of representatives of one of Main’s peppiest clubs. Last, but not least, was the High School Dramatic Club’s automobile covered with white and yellow flowers and filled with some more of Main’s pretty maidens in the club colors. Main Avenue certainly felt well represented in the parade and was proud of them all. Here is hoping that Main will take as much interest next year. HUIIinTinirnTTIiraYTTTTYnTTTTTJTITTTTT!

ARTHUR PEREZ “In the Garden of the Shah”, presented by the June ’23 class, was one of the most beautiful, elaborate and successful productions ever put on in Main Avenue High School. The three acts of the musical comedy take place in Persia, in the garden of Perunah, the Shah. Ted Harding and Billy Cummings, American mining engineers, accompanied by Sam, their body servant, come to Persia to work the Shah’s gold mine. They come to the Shah’s garden, and when they say they have come miles to see the Shah, they gain admittance to the harem. Ted immediately falls in love with Zohdah, the Shah’s daughter, and Billy with lx)hlan. Zohdah’s friend, while Nowobeh, Zohdah’s old nurse, pursues Sam, much to his discomfiture, thinking him “her king of hearts’’ in some other incarnation. The Shah returns with Somecraba, an Arab Shiek, who desires to make Zohdah five hundredth maiden in his harem. However, the Shiek was found to be flying under false colors, having been compelled to abdicate his throne, whereupon the Shah orders him away. At the same time he throws Ted, Billy and Sam into prison because of their continued attentions to Zohdah, Lohlah and Nowobeh. Nowobeh finally makes the Shah see that by keeping the Americans imprisoned, he is defeating his own plans for operating his gold mine; so he at last is persuaded to give his consent to the marriages of the three couples. To quote Ted, upon the happy reunion: “As Shakespeare says, ‘All’s well that ends well’ and you may soon expect invitations to a tripple wedding in the Garden of the Shah.” CAST OF CHARACTERS Zohdah (Daughter of the Shah).........................MARION McCRORY Lohlah (Zohdah’s Friend and Confident;................ELIZABETH WHITE Nowobeth (Zohdah’s Old Nurse).........................LOUISE BASENBURG Ted Harding, American free lance....................GEORGE McILLHENNY Billy Cummings, mining Engineer.............................CARLOS COON Samuel Johnson Jackson.

In September when school opened a heated election was held and the following officers were elected: On with a draped pumpkins, and all the Hallowe’en essentials. The music surpassed all expectations and everyone had the kindliest feelings toward his friendly enemies; so the affair was a brilliant success. DECEMBER 19. 1922 One of the most interesting meetings of the year was that which was held in the Teacher’s Cafeteria on December 19. The meeting was opened by the Main Band playing some very jazzy inspiring dance music. Discussions were held concerning the Christmas Dance and the final plans were n ade. The business meeting was closed by unother selection from the band. Mr. May spoke and Mr. Scarborough led some snappy yells. Hot chocolate and cakes decorated with icing forming ’23 were served by the very able social committee. Hearty Christmas greetings were then exchanged and calls of, I’ll see you at the dance’’, were heard. DECEMBER 23. 1922 Just before Christmas Day, when all San Antonio was busy with Christmas shopping Main High’s corridors were not idle. By eight o’clock they were glowing with brilliant red flaring lights shinning on artificial snow that looked as if diamonds had been strewn over the moss and holly and cedar branches. The music, furnished by the members of the class was real holiday music with all the jazz and punch desirable. Many a senior’s heart holds fond memories of this joyful, glorious evening. OSCAR S.

The famous old afore mentioned halls were turned into a barnyard. The occasion was the Senior Barnyard Frolic. In the profusion of hay and overalls the dignified students forgot they were dignified and in school, so played to their hearts content. The place had the appearance of a roomy barnloft In the year of 1492. The boys carried corn cob pipes, red handkerchief and the girls wore pigtails, bonnets and aprons. A real negro orchestra, cider and doughnuts completed a real picturesque, whole some, marvelous evening of merriment. THE CLASS PLAY May 10 and 11 The class play presented on the above mentioned date was In the Garden of the Shah”. This was the best play of its kind ever given at school. Before packed houses the members of the cast did some splendid acting and the chorus with their attractive steps and clever voices added much to the l eauty of the play. GRADUATION WEEK It was during this week that the climax of high school life was reached by members of the Senior Class. This was not only the most interesting part but it was the end of a perfectly delightful high school career. Everything was wonderful and now we look back realizing how different school life is from the daily grind that comes afterwards, and live again in our memories those happy gone-by days. Sunday, May 20. marked the beginning of class week. This was Baccalaureate Day. It was a serious minded group of students to which Dr. P. B. Hill was called upon to expound his sermon. The invocation was given by Rev. A. .1. Moore. Monday. May 21. from the time the golden orb of light began to rise in the east until it set in the west, was spent by the class on a picnic at New Braunfels in honor of the play cast. Tuesday May 22. was class day. In the morning our last and farewell assembly was . held. At noon the teacher’s cafeteria was borrowed for the Jolllest of all Jolly class luncheo. s. At night the queen was crowned and the prophet read and hud the prophecy enacted in the auditorium. Wednesday, May 23. the Seniois held their banquet at the beautiful St. Anthony Roof. From beginning to end it was exquisite. Thursday May 24. Graduation Night at the Majestic. With a touch of sadness in our hearts we sat through the beautiful service and realized our high school days were over. Friday May 25. the big Junior Senior Prom in the front corridors given by the Junior class. It was a big wonderful affair, one of the most magnificant ever given at Main Avenu High School. Saturday. May 26, was the date of the farewell dance. The St. Anthony Roof was filled with gaiety and mirth at this last gathering of the Senior Class of 1923. As the small hours of the morn begin to approach the seniors, who had spent so many happy days together, parted and sorrowfully left to enter the outside world to make a name for thems Ives and Main Avenue High School.

As usual, they lived up to their motto of “Whatever we do, we do well”. From the beginning to the end the play was a howling success, Judging from the appreciative laughter of a delighted audience. It is hard to pick out any individual star because of the talented cast. Jack Joyner as Sam Harrington, was all that could be expected, and then some. He certainly did know how to make love to Deity Scheer. who played the part of Peggy Fairfax. Her portrayal of the modern girl was inimitable. Vivian Burleson, as Larry Crawford was a very villainous villain. Olivia Baldesareli, as the flighty widow, Mrs. Chadwick, played her part to perfection. Albert King and Beatrice Adelman played the part of the very realistic couple, Mr. and Mrs. Ollie Gilford. Eddie Valenta, as the butler, Swift, did very fine. Jodie Burnett, as Alec Fairfax, did very well as the dashing young brother to Peggy. The rest of the cast, Marie McArdle, T. W. Roberts and George Manhoff can also be highly commended for their acting. The coach, Miss Baskin, cannot receive too much praise for the excellent work she did in training the cast in such a short time. If the Jeffs present such a wonderful play every year, the Jeff play will be an honored school event. 1 OB TTTTTir f f fTTTf F in rryrTTTTTTTTrTTTTTTT! ......TffC f! 23 MVfSACffC Kir PTPHTTTlMTlTTTMfTTTl ttATD AVCOUC tftOff SCif6olT) THE CLASS OF ’24 mHE CLASS of June 1921, being from the very first minute they stepped into Main Avenue High School, the brightest, peppiest, most enthusiastic class that ever was or will be, was organized as the Junior class in September, 1922, although a freshman and sophomore class had been formed in the two preceding years. Then and there, the class gained a reputation which any organization might well envy. As freshmen, the members made themselves seen, heard and felt, in doing everything in their power to add to Main's glory; as sophomores, they continued and heightened their excellent record; and, as Juniors—it would take a volume in itself to tell of this class’ achievements. At the very first meeting of the school term, 1922-23, the elections were held. Under the able guidance of Mrs. Dolton, as sponsor, and John Edwin Canaday, as president, the Juniors immediately began making plans for the future, wich they succeeded in carrying out. The first social event of the Fall term was a Hallowe’en bunco party, which was “Spooky” enough to satisfy even the most fastidious. The next social function was the Christmas dance, a very successful affair. Probably the most, original party given at any time was the “Bowery Party”. Never before had Main seen such a Gay group! The entertainment given the graduating class was the most enjoyable that anyone could imagine. To think that giving parties was the only, or even anywhere near the most important business of the ’24s, would be a sadly mistaken idea. First of all, a fact worthy of mention is that the Juniors attended all the games during the football season in a body, thus helping the team to its glorious victories. The '24 class did one thing, in particular, which no junior class ever attempted, much less succeeded in accomplishing. During the Fall term, a special number of the “Huisache” was put out by a staff composed solely of juniors. This was a most successful enterprise—both from a literary and financial standpoint. This gave the school an idea of what it may expect for the coming year. The class ordered their rings, pins, and stationery early, and are prepared already to be the best senior class that ever graduated from Main. It would be impossible to tell all the things the '24 class accomplished this year in the space alloted to each organization; because it has done so much that if it were allowed to use a whole book, it would still find it hard to tell of everything. The Junior class may well feel proud of the wonderful record it has made this year, for it has set a standard and precedent for the classes to come, in trying, as hard as possible to further the highest interests of Main Avenue High School. l l l TamimnmunumrAiiuuyzniuum TtfC 1923 ffVfSACffC rTTTTmrt TTTTTTyTry TTTTfTITTTTI MATT) At f nUC iffOIT «SC fOOL THE CLASS OF ’26 •� � The Freshman Class was organized at mid-term February 6. Although we were not very strong in membership at first and met with many difficulties, when' we did get started we did some real work. The first thing we did was to have a drive for new members. It was a great scheme and proved a success; so we gave a big picnic in the woods and every Freshman was invited. v Our class was made up of plenty of pep. good spirit and ambition. The main thing we have accomplished is the building of a firm foundation for our High School career. We are now, with a wonderful crew, setting sail on the tossing seas of old Main. We shall sail on and on for four brief years. We shall pull together eagerly for the distant shores. And then, as we sail on, our surroundings shall change, we shall know all that is between us and our starting point as Freshmen. THE FRESHMAN CLASS Motto ■ 1 1 4 t-TAtn AVCOUEtffGM SCHOOL, ttt rH og| THE STUDENT C0UNCI1 HR STUDENT COUNCIL, organized in 1920, represents the first effort at student self government in Main Avenue High School. With Howard Doolittle as President, the Council has made 1922-23 the most successful year in its history. The Council attained the distinction of making Main the first Texas High School to put out a Students’ Handbook. This sixty page pamphlet contains all the information necessary to the incoming student, as well as articles designed to instill school spirit into the incoming freshman. It can easily be seen that more than a little prestige was given to Main by the successful publication of this book. The past year was also marked by the first social affair which the Student Council has ever held. This was a banquet, in honor of Washington’s birthday, and the fact that business could be mixed with pleasure to great advantage was demonstrated to the fullest extent. A determined effort was made to stop petty thievery in Main. Different students accused of stealing were tried by the Executive Committee, and if found guilty, were put on probation or expelled from school. A marked improvement was noted immediately, and, however unpleasant the duty has been, the Council felt justified and repaid for the effort. During the latter part of the term, the newspapers began printing articles about high school “parking parties’’ which were detrimental to reputation of the school, and to a large extent, untruthful or exaggerated. The Council immediately wrote to the papers, telling them of the real conditions, which were not as black as they had been painted, and assured the papers of Main’s co operation in remedying any evil. As a result, parking during school hours in front of the school was prohibited. These are only the outstanding accomplishments of the year. The others, by no means unimportant, can only be touched upon. The chief of police deserves special credit for the way in which he promptly and efficiently installed traffic regulations in the halls. Metal badges were purchased for Council members on police duty. The committee that worked so diligently on the successful Fiesta float also deserves much credit. During the year, a large Thanksgiving offering for the orphans, and money for gold footballs for the football squad, were also collected. But of all these things there is not space to tell. The minute book for the past year will be left with Main, to testify to the good work done l.y the council during the past year. The last business of the year was the election of the next year’s president and the drawing up of a schedule of things to be accomplished after the summer vacation. The Student Council feels, and is certain that both faculty and students will agree, that there is nothing to be regretted and everything to be acclaimed about its work during the past year, and wishes equal success to all Student’ councils to come. l 15 E !imiiIIlUIl!mJlH???TT!!TTT?TTTTTr TtIC 1923 ffUTSACfTC TT T T TTTT'TTTfTT TTTT fH fTTHT ITTTTTTTTTrH HT rfAtn Avtnuc trtoH cmool i 1 e 'TiinrrTTTrufflmimiinmimTinnniirf TffC 1923 MUrSACfft 2M JnTiTTTTT'� TTTTH:iinTTnTTimiminmiiiT rTATn AVCOtJE f TOW 5CWOOL THE CONGRESS DEBATING SOCIETY |T TIIE beginning of the school year in September, Congress started out with high ideals. To begin with, it was the ambition of every member of the club to win the Inter-Club Debates. In thi contest between the Literary societies of the school, Congress won first place. The old Congress spirit was disp’aycd in all these contests. Whether the dcbators won or lost, they took the victory or defeat in a true sportsmanlike manner. During the first school term, Congress was led by Lester Sack, as President, who was assisted by a wonderful corps of officers. During the second term Malcolm Holliday held the chair. To these two men Congress gives a great deal of the credit for the success the club made this year. Congress always boasts of having a good time while working. To live up to this boast, the members entertained with several parties and two banquets during the year. Needless to say these were as successful as are Congress enterprises. Congress feels that this school year is closing one of the most •uccessful seasons it hits ever known. t 1 7 MAtn AVCmJCtffGM SC+IOOL, 1 1 8 TTTTHfHrnmHTTHT'HTTTTTTTTITHimiT rtic 1923 MUTSACfft fl!TTfTHTrTTUT,TTTPTT,,m|,l,nTT™1Mrcrc' MATT AVfntlE WfCW -SCHOOL- THE HIGH SCHOOL DRAMATIC CLUB [Yf] ITH approximately thirty-five of the best girls in Main Avenue, the High School Dramatic Club has carried on through the school year 1922-23 its policy of being the best, or at least one of the best clubs in the school. This dramatic club was organized in the year 1910, for the purpose of reading and appreciating truly good drama. This year they took the play known as “All of a Sudden Peggy”, studied it and at the same time made it realistic. Every member took the greatest interest in this play, studying one play only this year. During the first term initiation was held and several new members were brought into the club. The Dramatics started at the beginning of the fall to work up their act for the Interclub Competitive Vaudeville, which is presented by the Philomathean Debating Society annually, hut they did not place this year as there were no second or third places given. Though they did not win the Vaudeville prize, they did win the $5.00 prize offered to the club selling the most tickets. The largest social affair of the year was a big picnic held in March at Covington Park. There was much gaoity and pleasure among the club members and their honor guests. Much do the Dramatics owe to their sponsor Miss Q’Keil for she has put the spirit and pep into the members. In a summary we can readily say that the accomplishments of the year have been most prospero l i � OS I I'TOOUDs- noiii 3ao3Av aivw, ' inimun ItTMTTrmrmTrTTTTTTTTnuriiiiiiiimrTHTH ATnAVtnt3cTrro r cif6oL' THE GIRL RESERVE CLUB � OFFICERS FOR THE 102:5 YEAR President...............................Elizabeth Marvin Vice-President...............................Edna Braden Secretary.................................Blanche Solcher Treasurer..................................Evelyn Jackson Reporter.......................Olivia Baldesareli I HE (URL RESERVE C'Ll'B endeavors to give girls thorough, normal and natural activities, the habits and ideals which will make them responsible, Christian women, ready to help make America more true to its best hopes and traditions.

All through the school year the Girl Reserves have followed out their program of service, diseussional, business and social meetings. The service meetings consist of giving service in many and varied ways. The diseussional meetings are composed of very interesting discussions on subjects that are of vital importance. The program meetings are always devoted to clever, attractive programs, with plays, songs and various other entertainments. An enjoyable social affair is held the last Thursday in every month. One of the most important events of the year was the Girl's Week, which was celebrated by all the Girl Reserves of the City. The climax of the week was the Mother and Daughter Banquet on Friday, March ninth. During that week the dub put out a “Girl’s Week Issue” of Huisachc. The Girl Reserve Clubs of Braekenridge and Main had several cabinet meetings together and also held a joint initiation ceremony. For the success of the past year the Girl Reserves feel they are indebted to the sponsors for their splendid help and co-operation. The sponsors are: Miss M. M. Wilson of the V. W. C. A..

During the year 1922-23, the club was more than ever interested. They started the year right by working hard to win the Inter-Club Debates, and lost only two out of nine. Although tlie First team was undefeated, the cup was lost by one debate. The lnter-club Debating teams were: first, W. R. Beaumier and Sedge- wick Coppock; second, Britton McCall and Donald Green; third, Malone Duggan and Robert Maxwell. In Inter club Declamation and Oratory, the Haynes were represented by Sam Rolefs and Tom Johnson, who both won second, place. In the Interscholastic Debate and Declamation eliminations, the Haynes were represented by W. R. Beaumier and Albert Hartman, in debate, and Alex Klein, in declamation. who were chosen to represent Main against Brackenridge. In the school Extemporaneous Speaking Contest, the Haynes were represented by Sedgewick Coppock, who won the E. Y. White silver cup. The Haynes promptly challenged Brackenridge, but they were unable to accept. The Haynes produced an act featuring the Andricks brothers, in the Philomathean Vaudeville, and according to the spectators, this was more like professional vaudeville than any other of the acts. The Haynes entered the Interclub dance one-hundred per cent strong. The Haynes challenged Congress to a tennis contest, and came out victorious. The Haynes first team in doubles, Lucien DaCoste and Clifton Wilkinson, represented Main in interscholastic Tennis, singles and doubles.

' Each year, the history of the Shakespeare Club repeats the interesting story of its progress, in every way. On account of the many plays given by other clubs, the Shakespeares did not give their annual play, as they did not desire to detract from the success of the others. The club gave a clever act, entitled, “Kn Cachetic,” in the Competitive Vaudeville given by the Philomathean Club, which was a great success. The Shakespeares have endeavored to live up to the great man whose name they bear. The club as a whole, read “Much Ado About Nothing”, at their weekly meetings. A Year Book was published, which contained the names of the girls who took the roles of Shakespeare’s famous characters in this play. A great deal of the success of the Year Book w'as due to Elizabeth McGehee, Chairman of the Committee and her splendid coworkers. For their Christmas entertainment, the Shakespeares gave a beautiful luncheon at the Wolff Marx Tea Room, December twenty-third, 1922. The Christmas color scheme was artistically carried out with exquisite poinsettas. The menu was delicious and beautifully served. Thanks to the excellent work of Lillie Beall Frost, our former Vice-President and her Committee. The Monthly Social Meetings were held at the homes of various members of the Club. These were attractively arranged by Ann Belli Price, our new and capable Vice-President, and were greatly enjoyed. Both our retiring President. Mary Terrell, and our incoming President, Mary Kenny, have contributed greatly to the progress of the Club in every way. The other officers have been alert and ever ready to offer every assistance. Our loved and honored sponsor, Miss Louise Brunet, has ever been ready to offer sound advice, inspiration and helpfulness, which is greatly appreciated by every Shakespeare.

The Jeffersonian Literary Society is one of the oldest Clubs in Main. The boys have been very prominent in school affairs the past year, so it is impossible to name all of the noteworthy achievements. After the various officers took the oath of office, they started to work on training the debaters and declaimers. All of the boys did good work but did not meet with much success, due to their inexperience. The first team was composed of Eugene Houghton and George Perkins: the second of Jack Joyner and Frank Baskin: and the third team was composed of Oscar DeWee e and Joe Ansley. The Declaimers were Albert King and Fred Hofstetter. The Jeffs promise to have the best teams next year, as thy now have some very promising and experienced material. The Jeff Christmas dance was the biggest affair of the season. Of course it was held in Main. The main hall was very effectively dccoritod in the club colors, purole and white. A very large crowd was present to have (lie grandest time of their lives. We had the best act in the Phil. Vaudeville It was a dancing and musical act. and the judges rendered a unanimous vote in favor of the Jeffs Gcoree Manhoff, dressed as a girl did a danc , while Alfonso Patino. Oscsr D Werpo, Marvin Jackson, Fugene Houghton and Vivian Burleson made some real syncopated harmony. The biggest event of the year was the presentation of the Hottentot, Friday. April 13. in the Main Avenue Auditorium. According to old timers, the play was the best ever produced here. We had the honor of having four of Main’s most popular girls in the cast. They were Betty Scheer, Olivia Baldesareli, Marie McArdle and Beatrice Adelman. The boys were Jack Joyner. T. W. Roberts, Albert King. Jodie Burnett, Eddie VaVnta. George Manhoff and Vivian Burleson. No one knew that there was such fine talent in the school until it was brought out in the Hottentot. Those famous “Jeff Entertainers” provided some real music between acts. To say the least about them, they can’t be beat. According to the applause that was given to the cast, nothing like it has ever been given here. i 27 8?: I lOOAiDS’ HOIH 3ftU3AV UlVA 3 ±3VSm ± CC 5I 3A X JumlAiAi' fTTTTTTT TITIH11 TTTIT’TrTTTrTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT t ■ TffC 1923 HUfSACffC tnrnni tH’tir uni i ui ? t; y ui i m rrATn Avcrruc trtow school. THE PHILOMATHEAN DEBATING CLUB nHE school term I922-23 will go down in the annals of Phil history as one of the biggest, brightest, and most successful the club lias ever known. Under the able guidance of John Louise Roberts, the club started with such enthusiasm that it would have been impossible for the Phils not to have accomplished great things during the year. The campaign for debating was carried on throughout the entire year, and by the end of the term every Phil had acquired the ability to prepare and give a debate. After the Interclub Debates, in which the Philomatheans were represented by John Louise Roberts, Katherine Patrick, Bedelia Mulkern and Dorothy Lc Gendre, the club entertained the debaters and officers of the other c'ubs. Til's irost enjoyable affair started the social functions for the season, which will long be remembered by every member. Among these were a Valentine parly at the school; another Valentine party, a never-to-be-forgotten good time, given by Georgie Anna Looney; and a wonderful celebration for the Phils’ 21st birthday. Of course the Phils supported Interclub dance with 100 per cent attendance. This year the annual Philoinathean competitive vaudeville, as far as we can dig back into the records of the past, was the most successful ever given. Long will Main Avenue remember the Vaudeville of 1923! The Phils were represented in the oratorical contest by Helen Gugen-heim, who brought one more cup to add to the glorious record of the club. The ideals of the Philoinathean Debating Club have always been of the highest sort, for at all times it has sought to promote the welfare of the 120 pTTTTTT TTTTTrrTTnTTTTTTTYTTTTTTTTTTTTTrfTTTTS TffC 1923 tfUfSACtfC 7! rrrr rn tTATD AVtOtJC tTTGYT SCHOOL 1 30 [TTTTfTTf!iimiiiimTmiiniiTT.HHLmrin TffC f! 23 WJfSACffC 'matn Avcntrc irfair scHool, THE MAIN MERMAIDS CLUB 0 � � OFFICERS Lola O’Coxkll Louise Dubose Miss Vfltman ...............President Secretary and Treasurer .................Sponsor ROLL Blanche Solcher Loy Embry Maxine Robinson Lee Silivan Allie Wackerbarth Jane Koetter Margarette Glasscock Evelyn Jackson Miss Stoddard Lola O’Connel Sammie Van Pool Geneva Mosely Mary Bess Whatley Mildred Lad man Jewell Jones Gladys Tullos Phylis Parmentor Bernice Thomas Mildred King Lucile Thompson Elizabeth Marvin Grace Messinger Gladys Kischell Helen Hulsey Margaret Gill Isabel Kalien The name implies our ambition and loyalty. This club is young, but sometimes youth is genius; we have only been organized since September, 1922. The club possesses a very able sponsor and founder, Miss Velma Veltman, who knows a great deal about the art of swimming. The acquatic meet between Main and Brackenridge in which Main was defeated took place last September. We were then more determined to become efficient and consequently decided to swim during the winter to improve the different strokes. We obtained the pool at the Y. W. C. A., where we swam to our hearts content. The Elk’s pool was used, also, through the courtesy of Katherine McManus. Twenty-five active members were allowed membership with the privilege of asking friends. The meetings have been held just before a plunge, which has been very satisfactory and proved fascinating enough to attract a large attendance.

To give us the right inspiration in our work, we elected Miss Thelma Van Trease as our sponsor to guide us in our numerous undertakings. We feel that as our faithful sponsor, she has helped us to gain whatever success we have won. To celebrate Hallowe’en, we had a big bonfire in the wilderness. Girls in khaki, devouring buns, wienies, pickles, marshmallows and all the essentials of a bonfire could be seen darting in and out the moonlit wilds. This was a peppy, wholesome, joyful affair giving us an enthusiastic start into our school year. On the thirtieth of December, to crown the Christmas social season, our annual Christmas dance was held. Moss, poinsettas, good looking programs, delicious punch and a jazzy jazz orchestra gave the Mark Twains and their gentlemen friends the most delightful time imaginable. The next activity that occupied our minds was the Interclub Vaudeville. We presented a very attractive sketch entitled “That Old Sweetheart of Mine’’. And may we say that we received praise and many compliments? Next was our initiation. All we can say is that it happened at the home of Olivia Baldesareli—almost at the end of nowhere. But that is all, for the initiation activities of the club are a deep dark secret, only known to those who go through with them. In the spring term we entertained in honor of the twenty-three graduates of our club. The Club entered the Interclub dance and had a beautiful, representative float in the Battle of Flowers Parade. At our weekly meetings on Wednesday, in room 222, we read many stories together and discussed the lives of modern American authors. 1 33 f 8l garages s� SB AiOm3fM33AV U1 3Ai3VSAAAi CZGA 3 U iiiiliiuUiiiilllliUilIlIlUllllUlillliillllr :-:—z eEr— - Wtttfiti fK + + + J i. —3 -===== E5nixiii ruiAiiuiiiiiiiii rrrri i imri 11 rrm 11 invijm’mrimtmumuiuiijmmim MAin avtnoewfow.school THE MAIN AVENUE HI-Y I’re.ski oil Carlos Coon Vice President Sidney Blair Secretary and Treasurer......George Man hope LT IIK III-Y CLUB v;is organized in Main Avenue in by the '----' V.

The Club began the year by establishing an information bureau in the front corridors for the benefit of Freshmen and other new students. On January 26. 27, 28, the Hi-Y sent a delegation composed of 'four boys to the State Older Boy’s Conference held at Dallas. This trip was most successful for the delegation brought back many helpful, democratic ideas which raised the already high standard of the Club. The club also had its show of social events including: The Best Girl Night and the annual Mother and Son Banquet. a Such a successful year for a club can be possible only by closing it with plans for a still greater year in 1024.

The State Violin Scholarship won by Saul Klein last year was captured this year by Felix St. Clair. The contests are held annually at Baylor College, Belton. Texas, and much enthusiasm and rivalry is shown. Although competiting with nine other contestants, representing schools throughout the whole s'ate of Texas, Felix came out gloriously victorious. As Felix is only thirteen and a freshman, we feel justly proud of him. Both Saul and Felix are exceptionally talented and all those who have heard them perform predict a brilliant future for them. Main extends her congratulations. 1 36 gTTTTT TIT 11 nTnTTTTrrTTTfTT f TTTrnT T T’TTT TTTTTT rfATD AVCnUEtrfOf SCHOOL, THE MAIN' AVENUE REPRESENTATIVES IN PUBLIC SPEAKING One of (he most important contests held during the school year is the big Interscholastic contest held every March against Brackenridge. Early in the year students start their work, preparing for the tryouls which will determine the Main Avenue representatives in the various places. This year the first tryouts held were the boys and girls declamation. In the girl’s contest there were fifteen entries and Olivia Baldesareli was chosen. She was a member of the debatin'? team in 1922. that won the State Championship. The boy declaimer picked from a large number was Alex Klein. The representatives in girl’s debate were Dorothy Brenner and John Louise Roberts and the boy debators were Hampton Beaumier and Albert Hartman. March the ninth proved to be the fatal day. The contests were held in our auditorium and Main’s loyal supporters were all present. But fate was against us and we were defeated by a to to one vote in all events except boys debate and we lost that unanimously. Special credit should be given to Mr. Philip Dunklin, the debate coach and to Mr. Frederick, the declamation coach, for the splendid work they did in training the speakers. Main is proud of her speakers not only for the excellent work they accomplished, but also for the wonderful sportsmanship they displayed. Therefore, taking into consideration the whole, though our speakers did not win, they did their best for Main and the entire school thanks them. The Inter-school Extemporaneous speaking contest held annually for the E. Y. White Loving Cup was won this year by Sedgwick Coppock. 1 37 tTAtr AVCntJCfffGtf SCHOOL muiri OOLj MOTHER CLARK’ CO-OP Mrs. Elizabeth M. Clark, known to the students as “Mother Clark” is without a doubt the most well known person in Main Avenue High School. Mother Clark came to our school In October. 1914, and has been steadily working for the pupils ever since. She was the first matron ever appointed by any school board in Texas; consequently we feel very proud to have her with us. A new feature established by Mrs. Clark this year is the supply store, now called the Main Co-op, which closely resembles the “Co-op” at the University of Texas. Here one may purchase all school supplies at the smallest possible expense. In addition, she has founded a secondhand book exchange. The exchange is open for two weeks at the beginning of each term and pupils may buy and sell second-hand at a fair price which is satisfactory to all concerned. Regardless of her other achievements, this alone would stamp favor upon her from the students; for much money has been saved for the pupils through these transactions. At all hours during the day students requiring medical attention such as headaches and injuries go to the hospital included in Mother Clark’s Rest Room. Mother Clark also runs a Lost and Found” bureau which we might estimate to be 95% efficient. Here students turn in any articles found and retrieve those lost. The inspiration that prompted Mother Clark to install this bureau was, without a doubt, one of the most progressive thoughts fostered by one of the faculty. The establishment of this bureau cannot be valued in dollars and cents. Mother Clark not only takes care of the foregoing things but also runs an information bureau. Here the student may ask any question concerning school life. The Editor would like to take the privilege of thanking Mother Clark for all she has done to uplift Main and help her students during their school life. All in all. Mother Clark has done more than any other person for Main Avenue students and we feel grateful and appreciative for her constant efforts in our behalf. 138 ee i '700 0S'H0lii3aU3lAV U1VU iiinniiTiTiTiirrniiimTiimniiiiiiinrm iiuvr? -w TniiJiii11 m X,1 'iiiuirw r mi C2 5A [ TffC 1923 MUfSACffC VOCATIONAL AUTO REPAIR nNE of the most inconspicuous and, yet one of the most important departments at Main Avenue is the Auto Repair Shop. From a very modest beginning in the Fall of l!)l(i, the Automobile Department has developed into a full-fledged Vocational Training School for Automobile Mechanics, backed by the United States Government under the Smith-Hughes Law of February 23, 1018. In the Auto Shop the boys who feel that they must have a definite, serious aim in life, and who feel that they cannot or do not wish to do College or University work, are given a helping hand to the position of a skilled tradesman, carrying with it the independence which can come only to the man who is sure of himself. Although housed in an unpretentious frame building, the Auto Shop has been the cradle of the ambitions of many a rising young mechanic, destined, perhaps, to become the Henry Ford of the coming generation. With their definite decision to follow an established trade, the embryo mechanics signify their inventions to become producing citizens of the country which protects them. The subjects taught in the Auto Shop are, of course, of a very practical nature. In addition to the basic subject of Shop Work the related subjects of Mathematics, Drawing and English are taught. The Shop Work is handled by Mr. C. W. Peavey, a recognized expert in his line and member of the Society of Automotive Engineers. The related Drawing and Mathematics are handled by Mr. W. G. Scarborough from the Department of Engineering of the University of Texas. The English is taught by the regular High School English Department. In the related subjects the young mechanic is taught the auxiliary knowledge of the trade without which the practical man could not be practical. Although the Auto Shop is at present housed in the frame building of its infancy, sundry whispers of a new and greater Auto Shop, housed in the best of fireproof buildings, and with the latest in the way of equipment are being noised abroad, and soon you may see an Auto Shop building which is second to none. Until that day the unromantic old Auto Shop will go on producing solid, useful citizens who go out into the world of business prepared with a definite trade to stand their ground and be a credit to .Main Avenue and San Antonio. 1 40 11-1 |n!ir ,unu! n!Humnniri jumimmmuimi'mimmunmnnu TTAtn AVCntJCtTfOM CffOOL THE MAIN AVENUE HIGH SCHOOL CADET CORPS 1922-23 FALL TERM: Beginning in the fall of 1922 the Cadet Corps seemed to regain new life. The government sent Main Avenue two efficient .officers to take hold of the Corps and work for an R. O. T. C. These officers were: Major Deshler Whiting and Sergeant Schnieder. The first big accomplishment of the year was the building of a gallery range. In a short time the results gained from this range were amazing. With this encouragement the Cadets organized a rifle team, which shot for the Hearst Trophy, and in the 8th Corps Competition, against Hrackenridge. West Texas ami is known as the undefeated rifle team. The next important thing Main’s wide awake Cadets did was to appoint Mr. Otto Pficffer, a member of the faculty, as the Commandant. Mr. Pfieffer has given a great deal of his time to the commissioning officers. Heretofore it has been the custom to appoint the senior officer to the next grade, in time of vacancy. This was changed, for Major Whiting gave to every student wishing a commission an examination. SPRING TEJRM: At the first of the Spring Term the Cadet Corps noticed a fact that many students have overlooked. “We have a flag pole and a flag.” The following customs were again started, every morning before school and every afternoon at the close of school the Cadets hold Reville and Retreat. These ceremonies are very impressive ami picturesque. During ceremonies silvery notes are blown from the bugle. It is every student’s duty to stand at attention and salute the flag during these few minutes set aside by the loyal members of the school, the Cadets. In March an Intermural Drill Competition was held on the drill grounds of Hrackenridge High. San Antonio Academy, Hrackenridge and Main were the schools competing. Hrackenridge won with 82 points and Main came second with 7S. The sponsors elected by the Cadets were: STATP Betty Morris Harriet Kellond Miss Huey Mr. Scarborough Miss Brunet Company A Olivia Baldesareli Marion McCorey Miss Parr Miss Thompson Company B Patsy Knox Virginia Carter Miss Brawner Miss Montgomery HONORARY COMMANDER Fred Hofstctter, Sr. The week end of April the 26th the Cadets of Hrackenridge, West Texas and Main went in trucks to New Braunfels and pitched camp. They lived camp style and swam, played and enjoyed themselves in a wholesome thoroughly American way. This year has been the most prosperous for the Cadet Corp since its organization. 142 I rtfC f 23 ffVfSACffC Tftt f 1 H! m T n r ?! iTv iWimmui rid rTAtn Avcnui wg t .scffooiJ 1 43 fTTTTTrTTTTTTTTTT!IT!I!!I!I!H!T!!!T!!nnTT’ TffC 1923 fftJfSACffC.

With the cooperation of the student body and the band, Sidney with his red and white megaphone can lead a group of several thousand people in the best yells in the state. EUGENE HOUGHTON Band Director We also feel justly proud in claiming ‘‘Bussey” (as he is very often called) as our band director. With his initiative he organized the band, with his enthusiastic energy he kept it alive, with his hard work he made it a success. “Bussey” is noted for his hard, earnest work and we can truthfully say that the band was one of his “masterpieces”. He had his twenty-five piece band at every game playing between plays and cpiarters. The band was an inspiration to the boys, making them realize that the school was backing them. ■ — fTTTTtTTrTTTTTTfTfff. i n hhjllllii ■ ■ I TffC 1923 MVfSACffC YfiJiyumi 1 ?! I IM Ml?'.!!''ll ?.! U!

He had coached a winning team the year before and every one was looking for him to repeat his work of that season. With the first call for practice came many of the old men and a wealth of new material, which after a few weeks of hard practice rounded into one of the best teams Main has ever put forth. When the season started Coach Clark had a team made of a full quota of individual stars who could work as well together as they could individually. With Cox, Johnson, Fletcher, and Willie Dunsmore to fill up the tackles positions, lirotze, Yantis and Donaldson, who though new men, filled in the line to make it the strongest in Texas. At the ends were Captain J. 1 . Kerr, who was playing his fourth year with the Crimsons, West, who placed on the all city team, and Ketchem, Peacock and Dwyer, who when called upon to substitute were ready and steady. In the backfield was a wealth of material namely Bill Philips, Leroy Gunn, Heine Jordt, Presnall Newberry and Seng. These men rightfully earned the name of the hardest hitting backfield in the state of Texas. 147 TTTTTTTTT T TTT TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTITTTTTTTTTTTTS _ TffC f923 ffVfSACffC ■ Alt t; hilmhih!; hi ip iiminiiiiiininin: matt) Avcnxjt: trro+T school. FOOTBALL (Continued) The 1922 team lived up to the expectation of the school, winning all except one game, carrying off the city Championship in the meantime defeating their old rivals, the purple and white in a memorable game, the score being 7 to 6. The games in their order were: FLORESVILLE In this, the first game of the season, the Crimsons carried of the long end of 31 to 0 score. The students were given their first ideal of Main’s team, and were not disappointed. LOCKHART The score in this game was the same as that of the first, the work of Philips, Gunn, Davis and Jordt being a feature. GEORGETOWN Georgetown, whom Main had defeated the year before, journied up to avenge the loss but were sent back home, lamenting a 51 to 0 loss. Philips was the star for the Crimsons, though the entire team played and all scored against the Williamson county Champions. STOCKDALE In their first out of town game, Main defeated Stoekdale, 38 to 0. Heine Jord’s consistant gains put Stoekdale back, time and again. AUSTIN Under the steady pounding of King and Maufrais, the light Main team gave way to their heavier opponents and were overwhelmed by a 25 to 0 score in their first and onlv defeat of the season. LLANO With a changed lineup, the Crimsons easily defeated Llano 32 to 0 in a game in which every player did his part of the starring. BRACKENRIDGE For the first time, Main defeated their old rivals, the Purple and White in the hardest fought game of the season. The playing of Aimer. Jordt, and Cox had a great deal to do with Main’s winning. DEVINE Philips, the star halfback of the Crimsons reached his peak of fame when he booted two perfect drop kicks in the Devine and also two touchdowns, these points going far in Main’s 39 to 0 defeat of the aforementioned team. LAREDO In another out of town game, the Main journied down to the border to defeat Laredo 25 to 0. There were no individual stars as the entire team started the scoring before five minutes of play had elapsed. SAN ANTONIO ACADEMY In their final game of the season.

MEN COACH GOODRICH took over the basket-ball squad, he was confronted with the problem of building up an entirely new team, practically all of last year’s men, Rathburn, Phillips, Pfieffer, Irvin, Parker. H. Friery and Beatty having graduated. The only veterans left were McCabe and Fletcher. However, after some hard practice the outlook became rosier as the new men rounded into form. Thia year’s team of inexperienced men made a fine record capturing the title of their league and losing the city title after two close contests with Brackenridge. Most of this year’s men will return and should insure Main of an extra good team next year. Allen Smith, a newcommer from California, blossomed out early, and as Captain of the team was the outstanding player. The two forwards, McCarley and Friery, were a light but speedy pair, and hard to stop. The pivot position was taken care of alternately by McCabe and Meyers while McDougal was Smith’s colleague in the guard position. Fletcher, Leighton, Sagar. F. Smith and Dryer were the understudies and did fine when called upon. 1 6 l ............

Main opened its regular season against the fast Wesleyan Institute team and turned in a victory by the score of 22-13. Jody McCarley’s good all around playing and his twelve points were a large factor in the win. WEST TEXAS Main met its first defeat when West Texas, after a close contest won out by an 18—17 score. This game was closely fought throughout, first one team and then the other getting the lead Friery with eight points to his credit was high score man. SAINT ANTHONY Main came back after its defeat by West Texas and downed St. Anthony 24—1G. McCarley with fourteen points and Smith's close guarding stamped them as the outstanding stars in the game. WEST TEXAS Main revenged itself for a former one point defeat, by defeating West Texas 27—13. “Hub” Friery was the leading scorer with eleven points. BRACKENRIDGE Main played its first game against Brackenridge to determine which team should go to Austin. Main lost after a hard fight by a 25—24 score. The entire team put all they had into this contest. McCabe stood out. BRACKENRIDGE Main lost another hard fought game to Brackenridge 20—15. This game was rough and both teams were weakened by the loss of man on personals. Friery showed up well for Main. SAINT ANTHONY In losing to St. Anthony, Main lost its third game by a one point score. The entire team seemed to be off form in this game; result 12—11. WESLYAN INSTITUTE Main Avenue came out of its slump and easily downed Weslyan Institute 38—18. Captain Allen Smith played his usual excellent game. WEST TEXAS Main met West Texas again, because of a triple tie that resulted at the close of the regular playing season, and decisively defeated them. Smith was the outstanding star. SAINT ANTHONY Main continued its winning streak, turned the tables on St. Anthony and thereby won the championship of league “A and the right to meet Brackenridge, league “B” champions, for the city title. The score was 38—18. BRACKENRIDGE Main, in the play-off for the city title was downed by Brackenridge 29—17. Smith continued his fine work playing his best game. BRACKENRIDGE Main lost the last game of the season and the city title went to Brackenridge by a 40—11 score. Main was completely outplayed in this game. This game closed a successful season and much credit should be given to the team for their hard work. With the number of letter men back next year, our prospects look bright for a more successful record; and Main is looking forward optimistically to beating Brackenridge. 1 62 TtfC fS� 2 3 ffVfSACffC ✓t_Ll | '1 111 111i-i i tfATD AVCOtJg tffGM 3CffOOL Reading from left to right (top rou):—Beaumier, Edwards, Fletcher, Cordova, Knox, Phillips.

THE TRACK SEASON NE of the most successful years that Main has ever had on the cinder path, was that of 1923. Though the Crimsons were minus the service of Dullnig. Pfeiffer, Rathburn and other old stars, there were many new men out and after hard steady coaching by Lieut. Crawford, the team developed into one of the best ever put out by Main. The team easily carried off the City and District meets and took two places at the State meet. THE CITY MEET The teams of Main Avenue and Brackenridge contested at San Pedro, April 7, in a one-sided contest for the Crimson! Brackenridge was only able to take two firsts out of thirteen, the score being 70 to 40 in favor of Main. Gunn took the 100 and 330 yard dashes in record time. Davis was an easy winner in both hurdle events. Cordova, a new 163 frTTTTTTfrtTTTTtTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTI TffC 1923 ffVTSACffC MAth Avcrutje THE TRACK SEASON ( Continued) man, left the field behind in the mile and half mile. In the broad jump Stedham set a new city record of 20 feet 3V6 inches. Houghton took the high jump and Kelton the 140. Trabucco was first in the shot put and second in the discus. The relay team, composed of Gunn, Kelton, Fletcher and Davis left their opponents over fifty yards behind. Other place winners were: Bcaumier, second in mile; Hamilton, second in half mile; Roberts, third in ICO yard dash and 220 low hurdles; Greer, third in 440; Knox and Phillips, third in broad jump and high jump respectively. DISTRICT MEET After another week of coaching, the Crimson team went to San Marcos, where it participated in the District meet, against its old rivals, Lockhart and Brackenridge, these and Main being the strongest contenders for the title. Again Main carried off first honors, this time taking nine firsts, the score amounting to 56 for them against 45 for Lockhart, the second team. Gunn again carried off first places in both 220 and ICO yard dashes, setting a new record in the latter event, of 10-2 5 seconds. Davis hung up a new record in the 220 low hurdles and was an easy winner in the high hurdles. Cordova took the mile and half mile, making a district record of 2 minutes 13 seconds in the half. Trabucco, repeated his work in the city meet, winning first in the shot and second in the discus. Houghton carried off another record in the high jump, jumping five feet seven. Kelton ran a wonderful race in the 440, but with a lead of several yards, fell unconscious five yards from the finish. The relay team showed up better than before, making a district record of 3 minutes 46 seconds. Beaumier won second in the mile; Hamilton, fourth in the half; Marsh, fourth in the 440; Roberts, fourth in the 220 low hurdles. STATE MEET Main journied to the Slate meet confident, but a series of hardships put the Crimson out of the running. A mfxup in the registration of the team made it possible for Main to enter only seven men: Gunn, Davis, Cordova. Trabucco, Kelton, Fletcher and Houghton. In the preliminaries, Gunn qualified in the 100 but was left out of the 220 by a change in the ruling as to who should qualify. Davis qualified in the 120 high hurdles, but in the semi-finals pulled a tendon and was out of the meet. Trabucco was not entered in the discus, but qualified in the shot. Houghton was eliminated in the high jump, his best being five feet eight inches. The relay team, minus Gunn and Davis, was unable to place, being among the last at the finish. In the finals Gunn took third in the 100 and Trabucco was third in the shot. Cordova, though he ran a hard race in the mile and half mile, was beaten by men who had had state experience before. Main’s total points in this meet were 4. 1 64 ..............rTTTTTTTTTTTTrTTr r TffC f! 23 tfUTSACffC � ....tt7TTTTT tt at r AVI mi c TffGtf sctiooL 1 66 p tTAtn AVCntJEtffGM SCffOOL THE 1923-TENNIS TOURNAMENTS 7 Tennis at Main made a broad leap forward this year and turned out to be a very popular sport. Early in the year the candidates met and elected Clifton Wilkinson captain and under his leadership a strong team was developed. The team that was chosen to enter the state eliminations was made up of Luclen I aCoste and Clifton Wilkinson. Lucien represented Main in the singles and he paired with Clifton in the doubles. Brackenridge forfeited to Main and then the boys went to Austin to play for the state title. Besides the win over Brackenridge and the winning of tlje distiict championship at San Marcos, three tournaments have been played to date and several more are schedul d. The members of the team taking part in these tournaments were Clifton Wilkinson. Nucien BaCoste. Bill McCabe. Francis Smith. Joe Kincaid. Benny Smith. Clifford Tatem, Fred Smith and Malcolm Halliday. A summary of the matches is as follows: In the first contest Main was defeated by Austin Nigh at Austin by the score of 5—2. 1 60 'ummumimmmmmuumunum TffC ff 23 ffVfSACffC ftAtn Avcntic ifiroir sciiooC THE 1923- TENNIS TOURNAMENTS (Contimfd) AUSTIN HIGH SINGLES Bell.......................lost to .

Mr. Hofstett’er was fortunate in securing as our coach. William •Heavy ’ Briggs, who was a former Main student and who had coached the 1920 baseball team to a State Championship. When the first day of practice was called, the last year men. including Bill Phillips, ss: Homer West. 1st.. Honky Fletcher, cf: Byrne James, 2nb; Goforth, p; Ketchum. c; were out in uniform ready to work hard toward a championship. Besides having these men as a nucleus, around which to make a team, there were many new faces that were out to try for positions on the team. During the first two or three weeks of practice, the Main team quickly rounded into champion ship form. With Phillips on shortstop and Jordan at the hot corner we had a pair that the batter had difficulty on reaching first. On the Keystone sack we had the old veteran. Byrne James, while Homer West held down the First sack in rare form. Both James and West were death on gr orders and both had a great throwing aim. In the outfield was the Waco flash. Thomas Greer, who held down the left garden in great style. In center field we had Munk Faulk, who caught iranv a ball and saved many a run being chalked against Main. He was put on short later in the season. In right field the honors divided between Cortinez. Dyer and Dunsmore, who played the right field in good form. All three of these men will be back next year. When Fau’k was put on shortstop, Tilford “Honky Fletcher took center field. He had played tin year before but on account of a class play and track he was unable to play early in the seaso-. When he did got in he hit the old apple at a 400 clip ami made many wonderful shoe strin r catches. Behind the home plate were Yantis and Shiner. Both of these men did good work while in the game. The pitching staff was composed of Lefty Goforth and Riechert who showed much stuff toward the end of the season. They both should make good pitchers in the future. 1 59 Ste F lens R. Had lens R.
