IN PLANNING this book, we looked for something that could be used as a symbol, a symbol of all the things that made the school year 1946-47 a big event--your memories, in other words. Nat- urally, we couldn't draw a picture of a memory, so we decided on a footprint instead. The significance of the footprint, therefore, is purely symbolical. The footprints scattered throughout the book may also repre- sent impressions, the impressions we in Paris High School, par- ticularly the graduating class, leave with our town, our teachers, our school. The real theme of The 1947 Owl is told in these four lines, taken from Longfel1ow's A Psalm of Life : Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of timegl' The departure referred to, in our case, is the departure of the Seniors from Paris High. The footprints are simply memories, impressions, and hopes, in keeping with the message of the entire poem. We refuse to constantly look backward, we choose, rather, to look forward to a bright future of high promise! These, then, are the reasons for the prominence of the foot- prints so generously sprinkled through the pages of this annual. While serving to tie the divisions of the book into a whole, they also serve as reminders of everything that this past year has been and everything that the future can be. f 1. -' ' ,sniff . ,, - af: .gxgyfa .R X' I ' t ...rgggf ' 2 I yu K ,wxbmw cm , 5 Owl 4 its .. fs. 11,1 .-an ,M .f T Ngwfik' 'Z , f MR.

The impressions he leaves are good and lasting. There is no more popular person in our midst, and there is no one more Worthy of this recog- nition.

HOLLAND THIS GROUP, elected by the voters of the Paris Independent School District, was chosen because each member was considered capable of over- seeing the management of the Paris schools. In no instance have they fallen short of the faith placed in them. They see to it that efficient teachers are employed, and they are the judges of the amount of money to be spent in each school. For their services they receive no mone- tary reward, but the board of education has the MR. J. B. HARVILL good will of the student body of Paris High and p,em,3e,,, the citizens of Paris.

JUSTISS Superintendent Miss BETTY Cnoss, B.A. Secretary to Superintendent Ow 10 MR. JUSTISS, new position as Super- intendent of the Paris Public Schools has not caused him to feel less in- terest in Paris High School. This past year has seen him on the side- lines everywhere the Wildcats played, at many school parties, and willing to advise or sympathize with any student who Came seeking him. He was never too busy to listen and answer. His ability and fitness for the office he now holds are without limit. We miss him as our principal, but we are proud of his promotion. We wish him success in everything he undertakes. MR. RoBY FAGG is a comparatively new personality in our midst. When he made his first appearance, he was greeted with apprehension and a Let's wait and see attitude. Since then he has been warmly accepted by the student body and the citizens of Paris. We have found him to be one of the most thoroughly likable persons we've known. His sense of humor crops up in assemblies, fac- ulty meetings, and in his office, but his ideas are always sound and prac- ticable. He envisions great things for Paris High, and he is a man who carries through what he plans. For this reason, progress forward is pre- dicted for Paris High School. Our . uiding Star MR. Rosy C.

Top Row: McLemore, Jackson, Justiss, Abshire EACH MONTH the faculty of Paris High School chooses a Senior boy to be Junior Rotarian. To be considered eligible the boys must be out- standing members of the graduating class, courteous, dependable, and must maintain a good scholastic standing. Bottom Row: Fagan, Atwell, Ashmore, Reddell The object of the Junior Rotarian idea is to give the boys an opportunity to meet the business men of Paris and to train them for future citi- zenship. It is indeed commendable tobe cori- ' sidered worthy of this honor. Owl 37 A 5 2 si I ' E22 ,,,. iff, figs L Alix, , ,- si Us QL V5 IZ sfo me z 4 . , qw '.

V THERE ARE FIFTY-ONE AND ONE-HALF affiliated credits offered in P.H.S. in the 148 classes taught daily? CWe have variety if nothing else.J We are very language-minded people, what with four years of English required and electives in- cluding four years of Latin and two years of German, French, or Spanish. CThat way we learn to discourage salesmen in four different languages.D Required subjects which compose our math department are general math, algebra, and plane geometry or senior algebra. A half-year of trig- onometry and a half-year of solid geometry are the students' electives. For those interested in secretarial work, a varied course is offered, including typing, shorthand, junior business training, and bookkeeping. .Two years of social science are required, Ameri- can history and one elective, either Texas history, world history, civics, or economics. In the industrial arts department are included mechanical drawing and manual training. In our science department are general science, biology, chemistry, and physics. Featured in our music department are the band Owl 58 2 and choral club, two of the most popular courses offered. If on most any day of the week you hear screams and look toward the gym to see little children CSophs and Freshmenl running around in bloomers, that's a phys. ed. class. They some- times are overcome by the excitement of the volley ball games. We also have an efficient speech department, which sponsors several entries in the interscho- lastic events. Continued this year is a course in Bible. In the foods and clothing classes the future homemakers are given the best training possible along that line, while in the vocational agricul- ture classes the boys study the various phases of modern farming. Thus you see the numerous subjects studied by the students of P.H.S.g but in spite of classes we have a pretty good time. One reason could be the fourteen well-organized and active clubs featured in our school life. These, plus the com- petition met in interscholastic events track, tennis, debate, typing, shorthand, and dec- lamation, add incentive and sparkle to our cur- riculum. such as 5 2 V , ,,A. ,.,..,,. . 4 -,- - -. -f , - .,,.

RAYMOND BERRY Head Coacb Leaders LOTS WAS said this year about the 12th man, the students, but little about the l3th, the coaches. Our coaching staff, led by Mr. Ray- mond Berry, head coach, proved to be one of the most efficient in the State. Helping to carry the load that rested on Coach's,' shoulders were Mr. Paul Lively, line coach and scout, and Mr. Peter Barnett, assistant football coach and basketball coach. These three, the strate- gists of the fast-stepping ,46 Cats, hold our respect, admiration, and sincere gratitude. The task of preparing the younger boys for their future positions falls to Mr. Earl Witch- er, Mr. Felix Hoot Gibson, and Mr. Thomas Echols. The result of their work will be seen in future Wildcat elevens, for the fundamen- tals that the boys learn while under their supervision are the things that pull the Wild- cats through the tough spots. Assistant Coaches MR. PAUL LIVELY MR. PETER BARNETT MR. EARL WITCHER MR. FELIX QHooTJ GIBSON MR. THOMAS ECHOLS of '46 Wildcats PARIS HIGH has a varied athletic program touching everything from football to setting-up exercises. By far the most important sport, not only in Paris but the entire Southwest, is foot- ball. Until l938, P. H. S. grid teams were slaughtered, but since the arrival of Mr. Berry, the Cats have won three district championships and one bi-district title. Basketball has never aroused excessive enthusi- asm within the student body of Paris High, but each year shows added interest in our cage per- formers. For the ninth consecutive year our netters will be the defending District 1lAA champs at the April meet to be held at Paris Junior College. The softball league, an intramural affair, offers some of the most exciting competition of the year because more boys take part, therefore, more can happen. At the District 11AA track meet which is held also at Paris junior College, the Cats always make a good showing. WILDCATS B TEAM rt Re ie Sept. 13 Kilgore 13 Paris Sept. 12 Mt.

Meets sched- uled are District, Regional, and State. Norma Lawrence, Frances Cook, and Billy House are the returning lettermen, and with these, plus the other tennis hopefuls, prospects look bright for the Paris High ten- nis teams. District, Regional, and State Meets will be held, but the results of these will come too late to be noted here. Softball plays an important part in the spring athletic program of Paris High. Teams are organized among the boys, and they play a double round robin. Spencer Ab- bett's group came out winner last year, and we'll have to wait and see about results this season.

Mar- tin, Fagan, Dabbs, Greer, Jackson, Patterson Second Row: Davenport, Moye, Carpenter, Pratt, Kammer, Bone, Yeager, Abshire ALTHOUGH THEY were considered a danger- ous opponent, the '46 Wildcats lost the district SAA trophy which they had hoped to help win permanently for P.H.S. The Cats, who dropped to third place, still topped their op- position's total of 1182 yards rushing with Third Row: Antoine, C. Thielman, Spencer, Bell, Ellis, Stevenson, Ingram, Atwell Fourth Row: Reddell, Williams, Floyd, Ashmore, Matney, Walker, McLemore, C.

Outstanding on the offense was W. D. Stevenson, who ran for one TD and passed to Fagan for another. The Bulldogs, scoring early in the first period, seemed confident of a victory, but Reddell's 85- yard jaunt to paydirt took the wind from their sails. ' FIGHTING GAMELY to the final whistle, the light, speedy Cats tripped before the heavy Waxa- hachie Indians, 14-7. Matching power with blazing speed, the Cats jolted and jarred the Indian line time and again. In the first quarter, a fumble having placed the Cats in scoring po- sition, Reddell cracked the middle for six points, and Charles Burton kicked the extra point. Big Rueselle Matney, charging through fast on de- fense, caused the Indian backs plenty of head- aches. Paris 13 Longview 0 LEADING IN every department, the Wildcats trav- eled via air and ground to blank the Lobos, 15-O. Although the field was muddy and the ball slip- pery, the Cats held on to the ball well enough for Fagan and Reddell to cross the double stripe once each. Our forward wall worked better than it had all year, but the defensive play of Bobby Floyd and Buddy Kammer was exceptionally good. Paris 0 Amarillo 20 PLAYING ONE of their best games of the season, the blue-clad Cats looked good even in defeat as they fell before the powerful Amarillo San- dies, 20-O. The driving, jarring force of their ground attack, which pounded the West Texas District Champs for four quarters, was led by battering Billy Reddell, who churned olf ll2 yards. The hard-fighting Wildcat line was paced by Charles Burton, who was responsible for the failure of many Sandy plays. L e t t e r m e n BILLY REDDELL W. D.

The Cats' 47- yard drive that would have won the game was halted when the Jackets covered our fumble on their one-foot line. In an amazing punting duel with Denison's Newman, Reddell, who played in his same dependable style, emerged with an average of 49 yards plus. The Cat line allowed .Qthe jackets only six first downs as compared to :nine for Paris. O1vl78 LED BY the fancy feet of Joe Fagan, the P.H.S. Wildcats repulsed the strong bid for victory made by the inspired Sulphur Springs Wildcats, 20-14. Co-Captain jack Ashmore passed to Little joe for the first tally, and Reddell bat- tered the middle for the second. A fumble, re- covered by Hugh Antoine, started the drive in which Fagan skipped 50 yards in five plays to chalk up the winning TD. Paris 33 Bonham 0 PLAYING ON a mud-soaked field minus the serv- ices of Reddell and Floyd, the Cats massacred the Bonham Warriors, 33-0. Pondus McLemore, Donald Bell, Buddy Kammer, and Calvin Thiel- man all showed up well as the Cats held the Warriors in their own end of the Held through- out the game. Fagan, Ashmore, and Martin car- ried the mail for the Cats as they racked up a total of 3G7 yards rushing and 17 first downs. , , Paris 0 Sherman 13 AFTER A hard-fought first half, the Wildcats met defeat at the hands of the Sherman Bearcats, 13-0. Even in defeat the stubbornness of the Paris defense, and especially the play of Bobby Floyd, was worthy of praise. The Wildcats made two long drives that went nearly the length of the field, but each time the Cats lost their punch before reaching paydirt.

After the Leopards' first 74-yard march to paydirt, the Cats put up the stop sign, and with Wallace Williams and Rueselle Matney setting the style, held the visitors to a total of six yards gained during the rest of the game. Jack Ash- more, 'who knocked off 20 yards for our second TD, played an outstanding game. Owl 80 Right Snaps: Top: A view of the B Team against Greenville. Center: More of the stands at Greenville.

Paris 27 Greenville 0 SCORING IN every period except the last, the Cats dropped the Greenville Lions, 27-O, to se- cure third place in District SAA. Led by Rayford Walker and Pondus McLemore, the hustling P.H.S. line held the Lions to a total of 35 yards gained rushing compared to 369 yards for Paris, While the backfield tore off 23 first downs com- pared to Greenville's 3. Reddell led the scoring parade, and Charles Burton split the uprights three times in three tries. The Hotshots and Super Nubs WITH ONE step behind them on the road to varsity fame, Hoot's Hotshots came through the season's four scrappily fought contests win- ning three and tying Greenville, 7-7. Our diminutive Super Nubs, under Mr. Echols' tutelage, mixed it up with the various grammar schools of Paris, emerging with a total of iour wins, one tie, and one loss. In future years the Freshmen and Sophomores will put to use the valuable experience gained on the Hotshot and Super Nub teams.

Any crumbs of praise thrown their way would be justly deserved. The innumerable trips kept all four, with the exception of Billy Bob who was unable to finish the season, going in circles.

Teamwork and fine defensive playing were prime characteristics of our hard working Wild- cats. All of them saw plenty of action, each being one of the starting five at one time or another. Frank Wear, the P.H.S. high point man with 62 points, ranked tenth in district scoring. The fans will long remember that last Greenville game for the beautiful shot Reddell made from the Center stripe and Rayford's line performance against Freibergerg those two wins and the two heartbreaking points we lacked in the Gainesville game. The boys Won't soon forget Burton's early retirement to the showers, Rayford's tardiness to the steaks, and W. D.'s forgetting that he was supposed to report to the scorekeeper. Owl 8 2 Happ Tense moments like this made the second Gaines- ville-Paris game the outstanding one of the DECEMBER THROUGH February found the Cats pounding the hardwood floor, winning two and losing thirteen. Warm-up games with Sulphur Springs ended 42-18 and 44-14 in their favor. The Boys, Club games resulted in two losses for the Cats, 44-38 and 39-28 telling the sad tale. At Gainesville, Ellis did all right with six points, the final score being 29-24. Greenville beat us 36-26 in spite of Wear's and Moye's fine defensive playing. 39-22 was the Sherman score though Walker, high point man with Front Row: Dancer, Taylor, St. john, Locke, C.

The final score testifies to this fact- Gainesville 29, Paris 28. In the inset is Walter Bridges, manager of the basketball team. eight, Ellis, and W. D. played swell games. Everybody was happy with our 28-33 win over Denison. In the second round Gainesville pulled out in front with one point to spare, 29-28. Green- ville found a good defensive team though the game ended 38-21. W. D. scored eleven points at Sherman, but the scoreboard read 47:32. Denison took the starch out of us with 34-27 and a little roughness on the side. Our final game with Bonham and second win resulted in a score of 28-33. 1.

O O OUR YEARBOOK must go to press before any Inter- scholastic League results are available. This year will make the eighth time we have defended the District title in tennis, and Coach Echols has in the past sent six teams to the State Meet. In preparation for the District Meet our singles play- ers, Norma Lawrence and Pondus McLemore, and our doubles teams, Frances Cook and Harriet Kille- brew, Charles Hatcher and Billy House, played prac- tice games with Bonham, Sherman, and Denison. Last year our tennis teams again went to the State Meet. johnny Amis, Ben Billingsley, and Billy House lost out in the District Meet, but Norma Lawrence and Frances Hutchings, girls doubles, went to the Regional Meet and lost to Longview. Huldah Wil- liams, girls singles player, won first place at the Regional Meet and remained unbeaten until the quarter-finals of the State Meet. 3. Norma Lawrence. 4. Charles Hatcher. 5.

Basic Activities WE BROKE no circulation records due to a decrease in our enrollment, but We printed 800 copies of the 1947 yearbook with 773 class pictures. These numbers represent over 90 per cent participation by our student body. Our advertising quota, 31800, Was far sur- passed. Figuring, cutting, and mounting of all panels for the annual Was a three months' job and saved several hundred dollars.

The enthusiasm of the members is not confined to Back to Latin A visitor at one of their meetings finds him- self enjoying every detail of the lively pro- grams, even those parts in Latin which he, of course, does not understand. The first meeting of the year honored the new members. A dia- logue prepared by a Senior member was pre- sented at the next meeting, and the traditional Christmas festivities followed in short order. At this party the entertainment, food, and spirit of the occasion were all that could be desired. One meeting, which proved to be very funny, featured customs and superstitious of the ancient Romanst and evm membern the lionmly meetmgs alonefhoweverg they work constantly to better their standing in the state federation of Latin departments, the Junior Classical League, of which the Paris High Latin Club is a part.

The colorful legends and gay music of the country in which they were partic- ularly interested formed good back- ground for the entertaining and varied monthly meetings. It might be added that all their programs were student- planned and usually were carried out by the students themselves. The high point of the Spanish Clubls festivities was the traditional making and breaking of the bright-colored pi- natas at Christmas. The social activities of the club were ended in May with their annual picnic. An outstanding meeting featured Mr. G. W. Harrison, immigration official.

Under the able direc- tion of their sponsors and president the boys belonging to the Hi-Y enjoy the interesting programs brought to them by their well- chosen guest speakers. Not all of their meet- ings are educational, however. All participate in such amusements as wrestling, boxing matches, picture shows, sing-songs, and pro- grams presented by the members. The initiative of the Hi-Y members has re- sulted in a profitable year. This year's social calendar listed an initiation dance on October 5 held at the gym, a Christmas dinner-dance at the Paris Golf Club on December 27, two one-act plays presented on january 31, and The annual springlwquet in May.iTT The Hi-Y was established to guide the foot- steps of those who are to be leaders of tomor- row and to aid them in the solving of their problems. BEVERLY STALLS Hi-Y Sweetheart THE TOP secret of the Hi-Y year was exposed when Pondus McLemore presented Sweetheart Beverly Stalls to the members and their guests at the Christmas banquet. She was given an engraved, fan-shaped com- pact. Much of Beverly's attraction may be attributed to her stunning clothes and her inimitable way of wearing them, her gracious smile, and beau- tiful blond hair. These are only a few of the many reasons for Bev- erlyls being the perfect choice for Hi-Y Sweetheart. s Owl 111 Ow Top Row: Bankhead, Bussell, Chesney, Cox, Crouch, Cullum Dietz Second Row: Evans, Francis, Greer, Henry, Hop- kins, Horn, Jackson German Club Left Snap: Second Year Officers President .......

Q, R Masters Of Gra Matter PARIS HIGH employs this method of electing the highest fifteen per cent of the Senior class to membership: the first five per cent are initi- ated during their Junior year, and the re- mainder are included after mid-term of their Senior year. Scholarship is not all, however, members are selected also on a basis of their character, leadership, and service. The National Honor Society this year spon- sored an hilarious Stunt Night, with prizes and fun.

The first social of the year was a Wiener roast and dance held in October at the Gordon Country Club. Besides a traditional Christmas party, the club gave an informal dinner in the spring. Not forgetting their team, les femmes sold chrysanthemums to promote school spirit for the Sherman football game. To give other students an idea about the life of Frenchmen and their country, the club showed a French moving picture which aroused much interest in the customs, language, and people of France. 1' r S75 Z' N 1m,,,:A '5f ' -...fn 'k't X ,,...

The student body then discovered that there is ability in abundance among them. Later in the year the Drama Workshop was respon- sible for an assembly program which further established this fact. We wonder if the inspired members talked dramatics even at the Wiener roast, the Christ- mas party, and the tea with which they enter- tained themselves during the year.

Throughout this book you have found the '46-'47 record of P.H.S., the result of our labor. I hope that those of you who have skipped the last seventy pages will go back and read them, because there you will find the foundation of the book. The small price that you paid for your Owl covered about half the cost of the book, and the remainder came from other sources. The business men and women of Paris are these other sources, and without their interest and cooperation The 1947 Owl would have consisted of a cardboard cover and blank pages. Patronize them! I would like to thank those students, other than staff members, who assisted in the circu- lation and advertising campaigns for their enthusiasm and tireless effort. Carolyn Cross, Hassell Grimes, Norma Henry, Dorothy Lewis, Mary Isabel Ludwick, LaVerne Mears, Catherine Palmer, Billy Reddell, Billy Ray Steed, Joe Ed Young, Jeannine Council, Billy Hub Hill, Harriet Kille- brew, Joan Lay, Ted McElroy, Earldene Miller, John Charles Ribble, Fred Rives, Don Spann, Bobby Staples, Virginia Walberg, Bill Waterman, Frank Wear, Myra Shelton, Wendell Babb, Gerald Burnsed, Elizabeth Ann Chism, Sally Henry, Lacretia Kincaid, Joe Al Nixon, Martha Sue Osburn, Ann Robinson, Virginia Rosson, Charlotte Smith, Elizabeth Ann Walters, jess Alford, jean Cecil, jack Coleman, Billy Epps, Ammie Alice Galbreath, Ann Harty, Martha Ann Hodges, Lora Lee Holland, Betty Hornbeck, Mary Moore Hubbard, Rodney Rodgers, Nancy Short, Catherine Speairs, and Marilyn Reeder helped with circulation. Rita Chance, joe Eagan, Dorothy Hudson, Jean Hutchinson, Thomas Carney, Katherine High, Peggy Rodgers, Peggy Short, Bettye Lou White, and Byron Wortham helped with both circulation and advertising. My thanks also go to the faculty, the administration, and the student body for their co- operation. The success of your yearbook depended upon the interest, promptness, and excellent work in their respective fields of Furey Printing Company, Turner's Studio, Southwestern En- graving Company, and the American Beauty Cover Company. I speak for the entire staff of '47 when I express our sincere appreciation to Miss Martha Hankins, our sponsor, for her patience, understanding, and ceaseless toil, without which The 1947 Owl would have been doomed to failure. This is your book! We hope you've enjoyed reading and inspecting every page. The thought foremost in our minds for the last year has been to please you, THE STUDENTS. In writing finis to this year, let us try to remember and profit by Longfellow's famous words: Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime. And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time, ',i- 1G,vfnrM3w ' Lgggmmzwm-W , '59 I J V Business Manager Q bp., :,:,, I zzp Tlre 1947 Owl Q v--is M L l , 5: ' ':.f:,w3iI4774c1Z,, ll ' O wl 2 0 4 Calendar For May 2 The Delta Ro Sigma members held a banquet at the Golf Club.
