THOMAS S. JUSTISS Superintendent For the past three years Mr. justiss has been the Superintendent of the Paris Public Schools. He entered into this position with enthusiasm, and he has succeeded even better than we could have hoped. Mr. jusriss is an ardent admirer of football, and he may be seen on the sidelines at every Wildcat game. He also frequently visits the school parties. His cheery smile and friendly manner leave im- pressions in the minds of our student body which are good and lasting. For these reasons and many others, we salute Mr. Justiss, our Superintendent. 10 OWL Yan :' 3 X ...,, Uwe Siclwnl, Bnafwl, Those who compose our school board are entrusted with the problem of supervising our schools, of making our rules and regulations, and of employing and discharging our teachers. They have generously given of their time to help us in our progress toward making our schools outstanding and worthy of the opportunity which they provide. Our school board is elected by the voters of the Paris Inde- pendent School District and do not receive a salary for this work, but their reward is the knowledge that they are helping our youth to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Fagg came to Paris High School three years ago to replace Mr. justiss as principal. He has a refreshing and pleasing personality which is appre- ciated not only by the student body, but also by the faculty and the school board. He is always ready to help in any way possible to encourage the students and the school in a program to further education in these modern times. Mr. Fagg has brought about numerous improvements, and we are sure he will continue to do so with each passing year. We feel that as long as he is with us, our school will, as it has in the past, continue to thrive on comradeship and it will keep striving for the best in education. On behalf of the student body, the faculty, and others who are in any way connected with Paris High School, we salute him with our appreciation for the good work that he is doing. flu Cf A faculty. t if - -fafff Miss Euna Anderson, B.S., M.S.

THE FORTY-NINERSH PASSING PARADE The seniors are about to leave the dear old halls of Paris High School, but before they do let us cast a backward glance over the last four years. In 1945-46 we entered Paris High School as Freshmen-252 strong. We were awed and proud of our beautiful building and our wonderful faculty. We elected Charles Hatcher president and Miss Fran- cenia Hicks, sponsor. The previous Freshmen had left us the heritage of a wonderful name, and we tried to leave this intact. When the last of May came we proudly took our place in Paris High School as Sophomores. Billy Martin and Mr. Witcher were elected president and sponsor respectively. On December 7, 1946, we had a tacky party, and on january 16, 1947, the Sophomore class, presented an assembly program. One of the annual events of Paris High School is the electing of cheer leaders from the Sophomore class. From much talent we chose Pan Chism, Patsy Whitlow, and Bobby Booth. Finally came that wonderful day when the forty-niners were upper classmen. We elected Billy Mar- tin president and Miss Hankins, sponsor On February 27, 1948, we had a stunt night, and everyone including the teachers participated. If you were there, you know the outcome, but for the benefit of the absentees, it was a tremendous success. The junior class also published a newspaper, The Parir Hi Liler. On May 21, the class gave a box supper to add more money to their steadily growing funds. The result was one of the finest junior-Senior proms ever given. Now we are Seniors. Although we have long awaited this time, the pleasure is marred by the thought of leaving school. We laugh and say we are glad, but somehow our laughter does not ring true. But even though we are sad we are still upholding the dignity of our wonderful class. We elected class officers who we thought were capable of directing the Senior class, and when commencement comes, we will want to be able to walk with pride across the school stage for the last time. We will be back, as years go by, to see our teachers and the familiar halls, but it will never be the same. So take heed, Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors, get the most out of Paris High School that you Can, because you will have few better times than you have here.

Little dandelion Your gold hair is no more Grey Hud has come to replace The golden head of yore. A careless hand will pick you up And blow your fluff away. This will make more dandelions Come another spring day. Along the shore of a vast sea Stands a huge and very mighty tree, Who through the many despairing years, Has kept her beauty despite life's fears. She has kept, behind that wrinkled face, Her splendor and her ever envied grace, Her strength has conquered every storm While the sea howled in great alarm. This tree has courage both strong and bold, For she has fought the bitterest of cold, No storm, no cold, can match the wits, Of this daring tree which never quits. -Lida Litvin -Thomas Pierce The above poems, by a Freshman girl and a Senior boy, received national recognition when printed in The National Anthology of Student's Poetry, Los Angeles, California. 46 OWL il 21, :Ni w , V - -Q' X FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS jerry Ashford Jimmy Christian Jimmy Heavner Bertha Lee Carter P rc,ri11'e11l Vice-Prefidemf Secretary Tremlzrer OWL 47 4 Q S Bobby Allen Dorothy Allman Donna Fay Anderson Wayne Antoine Mary Dorothy Arnold Nancy Arnold jerry,Ashford.

Norma Lawrence won the class AA girls' singles crown in the state meet. Charlie Hatcher, Billy House and Norma won their way into the re- gional tournament, but Bobby Sta- ples, Hattie Killebrew and Joan Lay were beaten in the district meet. Tennis will be back in the sports calendar this year, coached by C. A. Dempsey. BASEBALL For the first time since before the war, Paris High, under Ted Carley's leadership, had an organized baseball team last summer and lost no time in latching on to the championship. They lost only to Sherman and Gainesville, but later beat the Bear- cats twice for the title. GOLF Adding to the long list of cham- pionships for Paris High, Wildcat golfers grabbed the district 5AA crown this season. The Wildcats are the HIST, and only golfers to win a SAA title, since 1948 was the inaug- ural year for SAA golf. Frank Wear, Wallace Williams, Carl Chambers and Billy Grimes Phillips made up the champion four- some. As a result of their work on the greens, there's a new trophy in the Paris High trophy case.

Bobby Ingram went over from the 2-yard line in the first quarter to put Paris in the lead, 6-0. Billy Martin went 86 yards in the third quarter for a TD and Louis Pratt added the extra point. In the fourth quarter, Ingram intercepted an Elec- tra pass and went over for the final tally. CATS TAMED BY TYLER Tyler Lions whipped the Paris Wildcats 24-14. Al- though the Wildcats lost, they fought hard to crack the Lions' heavy forward wall. Paris Wildcats led at the half, 7-6, but the hefty Lions, superior in weight and reserves, stormed back to batter down the Cat defenses. Billy Martin tallied both the Paris touchdowns. Pratt booted both the extra points. CATS LASHED BY LOBOS The Paris Wildcats were tops in defense, but lost the ballgame offensively. Longview's touchdown came late in the third period making the score 6-O. The Lobos took the opportunity to catch fire after Martin's arm injury in the second quarter. The Wild- cats' line was red hot as Oakleaf, Patton and Raymond Berry turned in their share of defensive work. CATS CUT WITH CATS Statistics favoring the Cats, they were nearly beaten out by the Sulphur Springs Wildcats. Dick Garrison, safety man for Paris' team, fumbled twice, then headed down the sidelines for 60 yards and a touchdown. Buckman's block back on the 40 helped Garrison to break away. Pratt's placement was high-arching, good for the extra point. Top map: Garrison and Martin want possession of the hall in this confusing play against Electra. Paris won, 19-0.

OWL 101 ADAMSON ADDLES PARIS The Adamson Leopards ran and passed their way to a 26-7 victory over the Paris Wildcats at Dal-Hi Stadium. The Leopards kept the Wildcats scoreless until the final half. Dick Garrison carried the ball to the 53, then it was Garrison and Martin all the way with Garrison making the only touchdown for Paris. Louis Pratt kicked the extra point. CATS BUMPED BY BUGS Defending the SAA crown they won last season, the Cats let Denison's Yellow jackets slip past them for a 12-6 victory. With the jackets scoring first, the Cats let go in the third quarter when Billy Martin passed to Dick Garrison, who ran for the tieing TD. Denison took the lead again with their second touch- down. Martin completed 9 straight passes, but the 10th was incomplete and Denison took over on downs. CATS BOUNCE BONHAM From bench-warmer to game-winner, Reserve Bud- dy Alexander yanked one out of the fire for Paris. In the second quarter, Martin completed his fourth straight pass to Bossy Robison, who made a beautiful over-the-shoulder catch deep in the end-zone. Pratt added the extra point and Paris went ahead 7-6. just before the half, Bonham scored again as a result of Paris' only fumble. Early in the fourth quarter the Cats went ahead to stay as Buddy Alexander took Golden's punt and ran 70 yards for the TD. Pratt's try tor the extra point was blocked, but the Cats still led 13-12. WILDCATS SLAUGHTER SHERMAN In the worst defeat a Paris team has ever handed a Bearcat crew, the Wildcats held their stride to knock over Sherman, 59-0. Every man on the Paris squad participated in the game. Martin scored four touch- downs and passed to Garrison and Robison for two more. J. E. Christian played his best game of the year, accounting for 12 points, and Bobby Buckman, bruis- ing blocking back, marked up six more points. Louis Pratt booted 5 out of 7 extra points. Top Jmzp: Martin goes around right end to gain yardage against Denison. Second map: Robison completes the pass that scored the first touchdown against Bonham. Third map: In the last quarter of the Bonham game, Buddy Alexander, on a punt return, scores the winning touchdown. Boftom snap: Garrison carries thc ball in the Sherman game that gave Paris a slight chance for lead in the District. lO2 OWL CATS LOOPED BY LEOPARDS The final home game of the season brought an 18-6 defeat from Gainesville on a muddy field. Gainesville started scoring first and didn't let up. They led 6-0 at the half after holding the Cats down on the 6-inch line. Taking the opening kick-off in the second half. they marched to the second touchdown. Paris scored midway in the third when Martin passed to jim Bill Ratlilf on the Gainesville one and fullback J. E. Christian went over for Paris' only TD. A pass inter- ception and an 85-yard touchdown in the 4th quarter iced the game for Gainesville. CATS GROUND-OUT GREENVILLE In the final game of the season, the Wildcats bumped Greenville in spite of the 113 yards in pen- alties. Paris scored first with Martin crossing to climax a 44-yard drive. Pratt's kick was good for a 7-0 lead. Midway in the second quarter Greenville's only touchdown came as a result of an unnecessary rough- ness penalty, that carried them to Paris' one-yard line. Just before the game ended, another Greenville drive was nipped when Martin Oakleaf hovered on Smith's fumble on the Paris 12. Two more plays and the game ended. Penalties or no penalties, we won!

XWith three returning lettermen back from the l948 quintet, the forthcoming season looked fairly bright. Starting slowly in their warm-up games, the Cats opened stride when district play began. As a result of a tournament held in Bonham, the Wfildcats were scheduled to come out in the cellar spot. They fooled everyone, though, and up to the last two games they held the top spot in District SAA. The quintet started off with a loss to Greenville but made it up by winning one from Sherman, They lost their second one to Bonham in overtime play, and won the next three games from Denison, Gaines- ville, and Greenville respectively. Then they took another from both Sherman and Denison. ln a heartbreaking loss to Bonham the Cats gave up most of their hope of keeping the top spot. They lost the linal game to Gainesville, making a total of four losses. Wfayne Chapman was Paris' high point man with 84 points and also held second place in District SAA scoring. Four of the live starters placed in the top ten of the district scorers. Although they didn't win the championship, they came out in second place, and everyone was proud of them for their tine teamwork and fighting spirit. OWL l. Garrison sinks another free shot. 3.

Baseball returned as a District SAA schoolboy sport, last summer. Losing only two games-one to Shermanl and the other to Gainesville-the Wildcats came back to top the Sherman Bearcats twice for the loop cham- pionship. Carley's ace pitchers and power hitters helped to give them their lead. Second baseman Billy Barnes finished the season as the top hitter, but was closely followed by several play- ers. Coach Carley's ideal line-up had either Bossy Rob- ison or Reginald Blackburn behind the plateg Gerald McGee, first base, Billy Barnes, second baseg Dickie Garrison, third base, Thomas Williams or Jimmy Mayes, shortstop or in the outfield, Kenneth Dabbs, centerfield, and Louis Pratt, Kenneth McNeal, or one of the pitchers in right field, and either Edmond Ellis, Leslie Bramlett or johnny Mack Brown, pitching.

Perhaps the greatest change was noticed in the providing of a modern library. The old south study hall was remodeled into a modern, spacious library with proper 'ivhting and plenty of book shelf space for the books now owned by the school and with ample provisions it future additions. A guidance program had been under way for some time, and it was helped very much when a room on the second floor was remodeled for consultation and for housing the necessary materials. For the ever-growing music department there was the complete renovation of the music room in the gymnasium. The room was walled and sealed and inlaid linoleum Hoors added to sound-proof that part of the building. An office was arranged for the musical director, and a storage room for the uniforms was built. New opera chairs replaced the old seats in the auditorium and added to the comfort and looks of the school. , Our curriculum has been increased by three new subjects: commercial law in the business department, commercial geography for the Freshmen and Sophomores, and needlecraft open to all girls. These innovations have been made for the improvement and benefit of the students, and they appre- ciate these efforts in their behalf and in many instances have shown their appreciation by availing them- selves of the opportunities offered them. Yes, all in all, this has been a wonderful year!
