For the first time in local school history, the band was chosen as one of only three out of thirty competing bands for a place in first division in the region, which extends beyond Fort Worth and which embraces many schools larger than Nocona's. This, in itself, is a great honor for the school system. -- The Nocona News The yearbook staff hopes that the 1956 CHIEF will reflect the pride of the l X school in our glamous lndian Band. 0 if J ' V944-'54 0'1A47vC7f.e4, Comfff rgggfyw for MMM '11 Z jg Z9 ,T 2 a:.f4w,07f4 fl' :Z 0.54 Lfcc.

Daon Wall f5'7 1f2 1: All-Tournament team at Wichita Falls, all-area. Speed, aggressiveness, and the ability to make his own breaks made Daon one of the outstanding players of the area. His spirit will be sorely missed next year. Clifton Baxter f6'1: One of our most consistent players, a good ball handler, who was depended upon For his rebound strength. A senior, he has lettered two years. James Weaver f5'9 l: A iunior who was the utility man ofthe squad. His versatility permitted him to play every position except that of our 6'5 post man.

Tom Uselton l5'11 1: Selected for all-tournament team at Wichita Falls, and all-area AA team. Tom was second high point man for the season with an average of 18.2 points per game.

The crowing of the Valentine Sweetheart was the climax of Twirp Week spon- sored by the Student Council this year. By secret ballot the students chose a Valentine Sweetheart whose identity was not known until the coronation in a colorful assembly program February IO. Throughout Twirp Week the girls made the dates, paid the bills, Furnished the transportation, and otherwise reversed roles with their escorts. Thursday was Dress-Alike Day, when the steady couples appeared in similar attire. At the coke dance on Saturday night the Valentine Sweetheart reigned over a dance where the girls asked forthe dances, and the boys occasionally had a Gentle- men's Choice. .M S BBING BAILING SAND PUMPING REVERSE CIRCULATION TUBXE ANI?
