Senior Qiass Legend ( Continued) During the winter months, the Baby In- dians came forth with one of the strong- est of all freshman basketball teams, trimming the rival Minors four straight times, three of the battles being decided by one point. Several junior college teams went down in defeat before this array of McPhearson, Lee, Eubanks, Kelly, Craft, Farrell, Drury, and others, who played important reserve roles. The Papoose baseball and track teams were also of a high standard in the spring of 1932. The freshman class of that winter contributed fifteen men to the 155th Infantry Band and a dozen or so to the Choctaw Glee Club. These men have continued in the places they made for themselves in that year and are now leaders in all the musical organizations. Freshmen, freshmen, freshmen, every- where!

Hederman, who was later destined to lead the Choctaw student body in his senior year. Other officers were Fred Jackson, Ray Hunt, and Marlee Gordon. The spirit of the Papooses was ably guided by this group of class officers throughout both semesters. The Papooses produced outstanding athletic teams during 1931-32. The football team won three victories in four starts, before they lost to the brilliant Minor eleven in the final game. This team had as members such players as Priester, Craft, Gordon, Peeples, Eddle- man, Davis, Hunt and others who were to star on the varsity in later years. Page nineteen

Conferences, or in other campus organ- izations, or in just making life as com- fortable as possible for their elder brothers, those blue and gold caps were to be seen on every side of the campus at all times, for they were worn through- out the nine months. In the autumn of 1932, these peppy young men of a year ago found” themselves. Now they were really Choc- taws, and could guide the destinies of another group of young Papooses, who learned early in their career to respect the wisdom and sagacity of the Class of 1935. Although many enjoyable events of the 1932-33 session can never be forgotten, this year is most often re- called as that in which the members of Page twenty-one
