EX UMBRIS Board of Editors DOUGLAS HEMPSTEAD Editor-in-Chief CRAIG MURRAY Business Manager ROY WILKIE Advisor THE 1935 MOHIAN PUBLISHED BY THE SENIORS OF MURPHY HIGH SCHOOL MOBILE ALABAMA DEDICATION To Miss Josephine Michael whose untiring patience and interest, whose never-failing sympathy and counsel en- dear her to all and especially to us, the class of 1935, who have found her not only an excellent teacher but also a worthy friend, we dedicate this, the ninth volume of the Mohian. gjj 3 FOREWORD In presenting this yearbook, we have kept in mind the double mission of the book; first, to portray Murphy as it is today; and second, to afford to the members of the class of 1935 a record of memories which are dear and everlast- ing. Our success in carrying out this mission can only be judged by the pages that follow. tai!iiiiii iiiTnifl|(! ii mi ii i i m i in 11 mmrnmwimrrtWfM I CONTENTS BOOK BOOK BOOK BOOK BOOK BOOK I ...................The School II .....................Seniors III ...............School Life IV .................Activities V ..................Athletics VI .............Advertisements THEME An outstanding celebration that at- tracts thousands to Mobile annually is Mardi Gras. In this volume we have endeavored through words and pictures to portray the history of this event. Our information has been gathered from Craighead’s Mobile; Fact and Tradi- tion, DeLeon’s Mobile Carnival, Lud- low’s Dramatic Life, Mobile Register: Seventy-third Trade Review-1914, and books by Hamilton. Although there is much conflicting information concern- ing Mardi Gras we have tried to record true facts. gTHER oQiysTir THE SCHOOL; ry ' • • ■ V • '■ 1 1 1 ' : Reproduction of oriKinnl Mnrdi Gras invitation. One year after the “0. 0. M.’s” came into being; the Infant Mystics was formed. The “I. M.’s” made their debut in 1869 and has continued ever since. In 1875 after obtaining permission from the Carnival Association to have charge of the entire day, the Infant Mystics evolved a day pageant that has never been surpassed, it had 24 floats illus:ratirg Biblical His- tory and led by the Emperor Felix mount- ed on a black horse. This parade was mar- shalled by Millard F. Kirkbride an ener- getic and enthusiastic “Infant.” South Tower by Night ‘ V° Wl r “Hope, like the gleaming taper’s light, Adorns and cheers our way; And still, as darker grows the night, Emits a brighter ray.” Goldsmith. Auditorium by Night The Kind’s Dinner is a traditional ban- quet given each year by Felix to his queen, her maids, and the knights. This is an elaborate affair, usually at the Battle House Hotel on Saturday night before Mardi Gras Tuesday. At this banquet the king presents some small token to his knights in remembrance of their devoted service to him. There is dining, dancing, and drinking to add to the festivity of the occasion. This i3 a great event for the public of Mobile, who throng to the dining room to view their king as he holds sway over his court. The above invitation is a reproduction of an old original one issued for this occasion. )mAN i — The Administration Department Principal..........................Mr. K. J. Clark, M. A. Assistant Principal......................Miss Mae Eanes Registrar.......................................Miss Lucile Fitzgerald Secretary..............................Miss Effie Lou Brown Clerk.............................Miss Willie Mae Gaston The Administrative Department of Murphy High School holds a dominant place in the supervision and direction of the student body. Mr. Clark, with the assistance of Miss Eanes, presides over the faculty and student body as a whole and as indi- viduals. Both he and Miss Eanes are always lending a hand to some unfortunate student or puzzled teacher. The untiring assistance of the capable and beloved of- fice assistants is the main reason why the details of our curricula and schedules do not go amiss. It i3 therefore needless to say that the Administrative Department is the hub of all school activities. Clark; Kane ; Fitzgerald; Brown; Gaston PAGE 18 qmAfl 33E Miss Brown Miss Gaston and Miss Fitzgerald Mr. Clark Miss Eanes PAGE 19 The Commercial Department Mr. Oscar Boland, B. A., Chairman. The commercial curriculum consists of courses in stenography, typewriting, bookkeeping, business principles, commercial law, commercial arithmetic, commercial geography, and salesmanship. The training in these courses is designed not only to help pupils to get jobs, but to enable them to hold them after they are secured. Mr. Boland, the capable head, is a graduate of Ruskin College and has attended sum- mer schools ih many universities since. He is business advisor to the principal and has charge of the business office of the school. One of his hobbies is that of writing poetry. Boland, B. A.; Chancellor. B. S.; Knkin. A. B.; Franklin, B.

Schools exist to develop and direct the lives of boys and girls so that they may become good citizens. The English course, aiming to contribute to this one general end, plans through language-composition and through reading-literature, to produce the following outcomes: mastery of language, activities in life, development of right attitudes, and discriminating reading habits. The Department, in efforts to improve teaching methods and pupil guidance, has published “Fundamentals in English” and “English Sourse of Study.” To the regular English courses have been added the following for gifted pupils: Creative Writing; Dramatics; and Journalism, all for upper classmen.

The Industrial and Fine Arts Department is comprised of all teachers of indus- trial and fine arts subjects. Mr. W’ard is chairman of the department, and Mr. Hubbard is secretary. In all the courses offered in this department the pupil actually creates something in completing the work assigned. He learns by doing. Formally, the courses consisted of the making ef various useful project?. Now the courses are made more educational by studying the sources, production, and manu- facture of the materials used. All the courses in this department receive the same amount of credit as academic courses. Ward, M. A.. Adam . B. S.; Botiue: Hrimni. B. S.: I nhmer Gresham: Houser: Hubbard, B. S., M. K.; Nixon. B.

The Foreign Language Department of Murphy High School consists of Latin, Spanish, and French; the classes are housed in a separate unit of the school. Latin offers a four year course and requires three full time teachers, Spanish offers a four year cour;e and requires five full time teachers, and French offers a three years course and has one full time teacher. The work is planned to conform to college requirements, but two years of any one language, or one year each of two different languages gives full credit toward graduation. Duffee; flay, A. B.; Jones.

Faculty Advisor OFFICERS Thomas Greaves ....Leon McVay ....Jane Smith ....Mr. Stapleton The Student Council is the governing body of Murphy High School. It has been manifested for a number of years as the greatest step toward developing our so-called democratic ideals among students in high school. Composed of representatives from each of the four classes, this body may be said to be the Congress of the student body. The seniors elect six members, the Juniors four, the Sophomores three, and the Freshmen elect two to this council. Leadership, initiative, and responsibility are effectively promoted through the activities of this body, not only among the representatives but throughout the school.

Their great feast day was that sacred to St. Louis, for whom their parish was named, when all dressed in mask and danced the rest of the day after service. They furnished their guests with refreshments also. Mobilians were accus- tomed to participate or to witnes- the exercises which lasted the day and a great part of the night. It is noted that in the early eighties of the eighteenth century in Mo- bile there were Spanish mystic paraders, dressed as phantoms ar.d bearing torches, these appeared on Twelfth night; the last one being on January 5, 1833. In yean back on August 25, Merry Mardi Gras was observed at Old Fort St. Louis at Twenty- Seven Mile Bluff. The mystic form of the celebration commonly called “Mardi Gras”, originated in Mobile on the eve of the year 1831, but the celebration of Mardi Gras, or Shrove Tuesday, was not begun in Mobile until 1867. Mobile, the first to organize mystic societies, finally adopted the day of celebration that New Orleans honored. Although all this is true, it must not be imagined that Mobile originated any- thing but the manner of the celebration for Mardi Gras is an ancient festival. It is observed in all Catholic countries of Europe. PAGE 38 % Dorothy May Abbot “Dot” L. G.

The staff decided that many subscribers at a low subscription price would profit more, both in popularity and in proceeds, than a few subscribers at a higher rate. After the advertising revenue had been carefully estimated, the subscription price was dropped from twenty-five cents to ten cents. Th result was satisfactory— a circulation of 1850!

Toward this end, the club studies modern poetry, short stories, plays, drama, essays, and novels. Taking one type of literature at a time, the club studies its history and structure and then the members attempt to produce original works mpdeled upon the types studied.

The present club is undertaking a general study of mineralogy. A series of talks by men of experience in the fields covered by the curricula of the club has been planned. Between the interest aroused by the outside speakers and the study of the individ- ual club member, it is hoped that a more than ordinary understanding of scientific fields will be obtained.

In answer to this question I wish to say that it not only helps one by giving him a chance to act in public but develops personality, and develops self-confidence in public speaking. Our meet- ings, once every two weeks, gives one a chance to learn parliamentary law'. In later life this early training will help a girl in her social life and will be of use to a boy in the business world.

In as large a school as Murphy High, with around three thousand students and teachers, there is a great need for an organization of this kind. The boys’ and girls’ emergency rooms are attended by two students at each period of the day. Through the years of their existence the emergency rooms have proved to be a very-worthy undertaking.

The third carnival organization was the “Order of Myths” or the “O. 0. M ”, as is is known. It had its inception in 1868, and was the first society to have night parades. Mr. Harry T. Pillans. a resident of Mobile, was one of the charter mem- bers. The “0. O. M.” roms burned about eighteen years a?o so that the official records were destroyed, but there are sev- eral of the members who recall much of the past history. f - M % A____ Review of the Varsity Football Season Murphy’s Panthers ended one of their most successful seasons in recent years with a 25-6 victory over the U. M. S. Bulldogs, giving them a co-championship claim on the city prep school title. Murphy did not schedule McGill Institute and each held two victories against no defeats in the titular race. The Panther’s brilliant victory over their ancient rivals, the Sidney Lanier Poets, was the climax of the season. The game marked the first time in more than a decade that the Golden-clad team has defeated the mighty Poets. On September 21, the Panther’s led by George Jumonville, fullback, turned back a fighting Leaksville High eleven. The score was 20-6. (1933 no game.) An experienced, hard-driving Pascagoula eleven spelled defeat for the Golden Gale in its second encounter. The team from the city by the singing river, led by Ernest Larson, backfield ace, ran wild to score in every quarter. Murphy scored once, early in the third quarter; the final score being 37-7. (1933-Pascagoula 7, Murphy 6.) On the following Saturday, the Panthers, playing against Pensacola High’s Tigers, entered the game the “underdogs” and fini-hed with a 20-6 victory to their credit. The Murphy squad, led by Jumonville, Jones, Sayers and Boutwell, worked well both offensively and defensively, scoring all three touchdowns by their clever overhead attack. (1933 Penascola 12, Murphy 0.) Seemingly unable to score a victory over any of her Mississippi coast rivals, Murphy absorbed a 13-6 lacing on October 13 in Biloxi. The Indians came back strong after a fair showing in the first half, to win the game in the last few min- utes of play. Adams of Murphy and Joe Wallace, Biloxi, were outstanding for their respective teams. (1933-Murphy 13, Biloxi 7.)

Review of the Varsity Football Season Ramsey Tech’s Rams, of Birmingham, invaded the Panther lair on October 20 and rammed their way to a 13-0 victory. Minus the services of George Jumonville, backfield star, the Panthers were unable to capitalize on their few scoring threats. (1933-Ramsey 26, Murphy 14.) The Ramsey game marked the last defeat of the reason, as a much improved team took the field against Springhill on October 28. Using new plays, and com- bining a clever air attack with powerful ground rushing and a stellar defense the Golden Jungle Cats easily rolled up a 60-0 score over their ancient Jesuit rivals. The Panthers made 19 first downs and gained 497 yards from scrimmage against 7 first downs and 109 yards gained from scrimmage for Springhill. (1933-Murphy 38, Springhill 0.) A bad pass from center in the fourth quarter resulted in a safety and victory for the Panthers in their Birmingham encounter with Phillips High under flood- lights. Both teams scored in each of the first three quarters. The game was hard fought and both elevens showed a willingness to mix it. (1933-Murphy 7, PhillipsO.) Carl Jones, Murphy quarterback, was the “big reason” for the Panther’s 14-7 victory over Lanier on November 10. The Panthers held a slight edge in the first half, otherwise the teams played on almost even terms. Yardage gained rushing was 151 yards for Murphy against 94 for Lanier. (1933-Lanier 32, Murphy 6.) The final game of the season was colorful and hard fought, although the Pan- thers were clearly the winning team from the first touchdown. The Golden Jungle Cats gained 227 yards rushing against 133 for Wrights and made 10 first downs against six. Jumonville was the Murphy star, while McKenzie was outstanding for the losers.

G. Adams (End—Two Years) Shifted from halfback to end in order to fill a gap at that position, L. G. proved his adaptability. Few were the plays which went for gains around his end. Ossie Boutwell (Back—Two Years) This big junior’s specialties were line driving and backing up the defense, both of which he performed well. Albert Cessna (Tackle—Two Years) “Chick” was a sure tackier and blocker, playing hard on both offense and defense. Billy Gaillard (End—Two Years) Billy was at his best on offense. He was a main cog in the Panther aerial attack. Bryant Gorday (Tackle—Two Years) This big tackle consistently camped in the opponents’ backfield. He blocked sev- eral punts during the season. Ralph Harold (Back—Two Years) This little back could always be depend- ed on when a few yards were needed for extra point, first down, or touchdown. Wilson Jensen (Guard—One Year) Wilson always got his man and a grunt usually came from the backs he tackled. Carl Jones (Back—Three Years) Carl’s passing ability alone made him an outstanding quarterback. Besides this, he punted well and carried the ball ex- cellently. PAGE 138 Letter Men George Jumonville (Back—Two Years) “Hock” was the outstanding punter of the Murphy squad. Fred Padgett (Guard—Three Years) As captain, Fred led his cohorts through one of the most successful seasons in years. Charles Roberts (Guard—One Year) Charlie never gave ground and was adept at breaking up his opponent’s plays. Howard Sanders (Back—Two Years) The lightest man in the Panther back- field, Howard was a potent blocker. Edward Sayers (Center—Two Years) Ed starred consistently with line play. His passes from center were quick and accurate. Ed Valenzuela (End—One Year) Many times Ed broke up plays before they were formed by opposing teams. Austin Witt (Guard—One Year) “Little but loud-plenty loud”—that de- scribes Austin. He was the smallest Pan- ther lineman to make a letter. Bernard Jacobs (Manager—One Year) Red was friendly, helpful and cheerful, always doing his duties fully. He was well liked by the entire squad.

The Cowbellians commenced its exist- ence about the year 1831 with a party of young men out on a midnight frolic the last day of the year. The moving spirit of the party, Mr. Michael Krafft, found a cow-bell in his path, while crossing a street; this he took up, and placing himself at the head of the party, commenced ring- ing the cow-bell as he marched along. These gentlemen banded together and formed a mysterious society, calling them- selves Cowbelliant. Their efforts were to cheer the lowly, help the widow, and pro- tect the orphan. The society paraded in public once a year when they sometimes represented personages from the heathen mythology or historical characters of va- rious nations. This society was very se- cret and no one knew from whence they came to frolic or where they went after- wards. LETTERMEN Houtwcll, Osmond Two Years (Guard) “Ossie” was always “there” on defense, and he pulled several games out of the fire by the shots he obtained under the basket. Curry, King Two Years (Forward) King possessed fast, shifty footwork, with sure-shots from mid-court his spe- cialty. Drury, Rufus One Year (Forward) Nicknamed “Dead-eye Dick,” Rufus proved his ability by living up to that name. Gaillard, William Three Years (Center) Murphy’s lanky cage captain was a marked man from the starting whistle of the season. Despite this, however, he led his cohorts through their most success- ful season in years, scoring eighty-three points himself to lead scorers in the prep league for the second consecutive season. Griffith, James One Year (Guard) James, did not play in all the games, but he proved himself regular varsity ma- terial for the next season. Jumonville, George Two Years (Forward) “Hock” was a mainstay of the Goal- digger’s offense and starred consistently with his superior shooting and floorwork. Osborne, Ed One Year (Guard) Ed’s passing and dribbling were fine, and he possessed a good eye for the basket. Roberts, David Two Years (Guard) Not a flashy player, David allowed few opposing forwards to get easy shots at the wicker. Williams, Donald One Year (Guard) “Flash” was adept at working the ball to his forwards under the goat. ■i PAGE 144 Greer; Filer: Chasuk; Fuqua: Griffith Drury; Diamond; Robert ; Williams; Mason Osburne; Bout well; Gaillnrd; Jumon ville; Curry REVIEW OF THE 1935 BASKETBALL SEASON 1935 edition of Coach Greer’s “Goal Diggers” enjoyed one of their best sea- sons in recent years in turning in seventeen victories against one defeat. The main factor in bringing about this success was teamwork. Perhaps the three best games the Panther five played were again-t Phillips High of Birmingham and two games against Citronelle High of Citronelle. In the Phil- lips game the Red Raiders” got of to a good start which they held until the last few minutes of play when the Panthers rallied to eke out a 24-22 victory. The two Citronelle games were both overtime battles. In the first, played on the Murphy court, the Panthers won 28-26 in one extra period. The second was played in Citronelle where two overtime periods were required to decide the contest. The score was 27-24 for Murphy. Coach Greer’s cohorts made a clean sweep of the city prep league champion- ship. They were victors in the nine contests against their three ancient rivals of the “Big Four.” Robertsdale, first district championship title holders for 1934, were twice de- feated by the Gilded Panther five. The first victory came as a surprise, especially to the Robertsdale faction, since their team has been a jinx to former Murphy hardwood teams. The score was 34-10. Almost'a month later the teams met again. The Panthers, playing at home easily piled up a 53-19 count. This score was the highest made by the Murphy team for a single game throughout the year. All were close. Two Panthers, Gaillard and Jumonville, were placed on the city prep league all-city quintet. It marked the second time in which Gaillard received this honor. The Murphy five entered the first district tournament as favorites to win the title. They emerged runners-up, the victims of an upset “staged by Spring Hill High’s Baby Badgers.” The Jesuit hardwood team got an early lead which they de- fended throughout the game. Although the Blue and Gold team rallied desperately in the closing minutes of play, Spring Hill’s five won 27-24. Three Goal Diggers” were named on the all-district quintet for 1935. These were: Jumonville, forward; Gaillard, Center; and Boutwell, guard. At the close of the season, Murphy’s cage team journeyed to Tuscaloosa where a rangy, fast-moving team from Oxford eliminated them in a first round match.

During the worst of the Reconstruction days the old feeling which had organized the “Cowbellians” came back again. The Strikers and T. D. S., dating from before the War, kept up their New Year’s parade at the same time as the Cowbellians; but the members were getting old, and the younger men preferred to organize them- selves into new societies and parade at Mardi Gras. The transfer of these turn- outs to the more pleasant season reacted upon the older societies, and these after a joint parade on New Year’s Eve of 1881 ceased to appear. BASEBALL Daughdrill, Colin Two Years (Pitcher) Colin, a tall portsider, could always be depended on to tighten down effectively when the going got tough. Gaillard, Billy One Year (Outfielder) This lanky outfielder was the outstand- ing slugger on the Blue and Gold team. Jumonville, George One Year (Short Stop) Hock” filled his position well both de- fensively and offensively. Martin, Willie One Year (Outfielder) Willie was at his bsst when playing de- fense. He seldom missed flys and his throw-ins were accurate. Sayers, Ed One Year (Pitcher) Ed was Murphy’s slugging pitcher. He won games with his batting as well as with his pitching ability. Sheddin, Foster Two Years (Pitcher) A former American Legion slab ace, Peanuts” effectively put it past” rival batsmen throughout the prep league sea- son.

Jerniican Sherrin; Sayers; Jumonville; Sheddin; Gaillard; Dauxhdrill REVIEW OF THE 1934 BASEBALL SEASON Garland Hayes, second baseman, captained the 1934 Panther baseball nine. He led his cohorts through an unbroken string of nine victories to the city prep league title. Murphy's team defeated University Military School three times and Spring Hill High School four times in the prep league titular race. The fourth and last game with U. M. S. was not played. The remaining two games of the nine game schedule were played against Moss Point High School of Mississippi. Two tight contests were played during the season, one against each of the Pan- thers' “Big Three” rivals. The scores for each were 5 to 3. The game won by the widest margin was played against U. M. S., the score being 21 to 4. The above in brief is an account of what Coach J. H. Greer accomplished in 1934 with six returning lettermen and good rookie material. The outlook, accord- ing to his pre-season statement, was terrible. The strongest points developed in the 1934 diamond squad were pitching and hitting. The 1935 squad again has a strong pitching corps. Ed Sayers, Colin Daughdrill and Foster Sheddin, all dependable hurlers, return to the fold. Other returning let- termen are George Jumonville, short stop; Billy Gaillard and Willie Martin, Out- fielders; and George Sherrin, Utility catcher. The schedule this year will include McGill Institute, Springhill, U. M. S. and po-sibly Pensacola and Gulf Port. Plenty of good rookie material to round out a tight infield and good outfield reported to practice March 19 and Coach Greer says he sees no reason why the team cannot repeat the performance of 1934.

In the early forties there were, in every large cotton firm of Mobile, young men learning the cotton business as appren- tices who were called “strikers”. These men were considered either too young or too impecunious to be invited to join the “Cowbellians” so in 18-14 a new society made its debut. “The Strikers” was com- posed of these youngsters from the cotton offices who added their celebrations and parades to the carnival celebrations start- ed by the “Cowbellians”.

G. Brimm’s 1934 track team set two new records in taking three dual track and field meets by goodly margins. The Panthers cindermen beat Pensacola 65V to 32V , Biloxi lost to the gold-clad team by the score of 59V4 to 44 H, and an alumni team fell by a 73V to 30 count before Brimm’s vaunted .cquad. The team worked as a well balanced unit with perhaps the greatest strength concentrated in pole vaulting, high jumping, broad jumping and relay running. The 880 yard and mile relay teams each set a new record in 1934. Jones, Bout- well, Baker, and Battiste composed the 880 relay team which rounded the cinderpath in the record time of one minute thirty-six seconds against Pensacola. The other team, Smith, Greer, Jones and Battiste, set the record of three minutes forty-four and four-tenths seconds in the Biloxi meet. Benny Saucier of Biloxi se; a record for the mile run in this meet. His time was four minutes and fifty-one and nine- tenths seconds. To the 1935 team six lettermen return. They are: Carl Jones, Marion Bat- tiste, Osmond Boutwell, Billy Gaillard, Clyde McLean, and Eston Caton. From these Coach Brimm has moulded a team which is strong in the field events. Bout- well and Gaillard are pole vaulters and high jumpers. Battiste specializes in the broad jump and sprinting. McLean’s specialties are shot-putting and low hurdles. Caton is a distance runner. The team of ’35 meet Pensacola, Biloxi, and possibly one or two other prep squads, according to its coach. Reed, a fleet Tiger runner broke Joe Springer’s two-year mark in the 440-yard run in helping his team defeat the 1935 Panther cinder squad 66-56 in the initial meet of the season. The red-clad Florida team took the eight first places possible and set the new time of 54.1 seconds in the 440. Murphy’s team flashed outstanding strength in the field and weights where, according to pre-season “dope” it was weakest It took five out of six possible first in those events. The defeat by Pensacola marked the first time in three years the Panther squad has met a reverse.
