To make Qhg Qallgpn more interesting, we are using our artist's version of students in typical phases of their lives on the campus. We call this boy and girl Joe College and Jane Co-ed. Joe and Jane represent you, the students of Paris Junior College. There were a lot of things we wanted to include in this book, but the limitations of type are many. Nevertheless, you will remember many events of this past school year. -You will remember hearing the voices of the Choral Club as they went ringing through the corridors, you will remember tones and expressions of a certain professorg you will remember the music of the record player in the recreation room, and too, you will not forget that uKilroy was heren. Would it not be fine if Qhe Galleon could record sound? We have tried to get parts of all into this book, but we have probably left out much. You cannot see the difficult time we have had in making this book, but perhaps it is just as well. We have had a fine time putting it out, thoughg and we do not regret a single minute of those many hours spent on it. Well, here it is. Have fun with it!

She is a graduate of the Univer- sity of Texas, having acquired both a B.J. and M. Ed. degree. In spite of her many responsibilities, she still finds time to sponsor the Ariel Study Club. l-ler win- ning smile and willingness to help have won for her a place in the heart of each student with whom she has come in contact. Miss Hanlcins is ably assisted in her office by Mrs. James Wideman, who also serves as switchboard operator. Students find Mrs. Wideman always willing to stop what she is doing to connect them with the hello girl. Also aiding Miss Hankins with her tremendous chores, such as sending out grades and issuing class cards, are the following students: Anna Fae McGee, Betty Fennel, Joy Ricks, Maxine Hornbeck, Jacque Ridens, Katie Van Deaver, Edith Mitchell, and Lucy Somerville.

The Three capable coaches pictured above earned the respect and admiration ot the players and of the entire school as they strove from day to day to build our team into a winning machine. They are truly coaches ot whom we are proud. They were gentlemen on the field os well as in our school life.

Assistant Coach Harold McRae came from Neder- land this year to add his able assistance to our coaching staff. Bill Moomaw, a resident of Paris, is a friend to both men and boys and is a member of our Paris Fire Department. These three directed our boys through a ditti- cult seoson.

The Rams tallied twice in the first, once in Page 78 of Eudell Dicus, but the comeback was halted by the rest period. Striking swiftly after intermis- sion, the Indians tallied again despite the defen- sive efforts of Joe l-lillhouse, Amos Priddy, and the Coker brothers.

The members of the council are the president, who is elected by the student body in the preceding term of school, the vice-president, the presidents of the classes, and the representatives from each class. The chief function of the council is to keep student activities running smoothly. The organi- zation is in charge of all student elections, it is its duty to keep the school calendar, and the of weekly assembly programs. The recreation room, also under the direction of the student council, has been a major part of student life this year. The council inaugurated the Record l-lop which is held in the rec. room every Friday. ln this year of success, the council added to its achievements by being instrumental in ar- ranging a schedule for club meetings and spon- soring the Christmas offering which was turned work for which it is noted is the arranging overto the Red Cross.

The club for the scholastic Joes and Janes at P.J.C. is the Beta Zeta Chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa, the National Junior College Honor Society. The chapter of the intelligentsia was established at P.J.C. in i932 and has been very prominent in campus activities. For the last four consecutive years, the distinguished service cup has been awarded to members of the club at the commencement exercises. This term has been most successful both scho- lastically and socially. The ball was started roll- ing with the annual box supper. Soon thereafter, Smart Set T i the members and their guests were given a din- ner at the college. Another of the club's lighter moments was the sponsoring of the bingo parlor at the Hallowe'en Carnival. On the serious side was the impressive initiation of its new members and the national convention of the Phi Theta Kappa held in Wichita Falls on February 28. To be a member of this elite club, a student must maintain an average of 90? or more dur- ing the first half of his Freshman year, or bring his average up to that standard by mid-term of his Sophomore year.

After the election, Virginia was presented at a formal banquet given in her honor. Virginia shows a decided interest in dramatics and has made quite an impression on everyone as one of the twins in The Sunshine Twins . Her friendly manner and willingness to serve has made her invaluable to the Ex-GI Club and a great asset to the school as a whole. !. ww. Ivlr. Charles Wo Second Semester President .....

ARIEL STUDY CLUB For the benefit of many uninformed people, this is not a girls' flying club. ln Shelley's words, Ariel is the free, fairylike, colorful spirit transcribing light and color into the difficult material of words. Ariel Study Club originated in October, l945, under the guidance of the Texana Study Club of Paris. Now, the club is a member of the Paris and Texas Federation of VVomen's Clubs.

Henry Elbert Much of the success ofthe band may be contributed to the fine direction and cooperation of the new bandleader, Mr. Henry Elbert. He worked hard and fast to get the band organized by the first football game of the season. Their maneuvering, under the leadership of Drum Major Lometa Hildinger, was indeed com- mendable. At the football games, pep rallies and in assemblies, the band aroused enthusiasm inthe student body for the Dragons. This was the first time since before the war that the band was able to make trips to out-of-tovvn games. Also, the music makers took part in several parades that were out of town, and they played a large part in the success of Homecoming Day. it is needless to say that everyone realizes what the band has meant to our college this year. l l i i LOMETA HILDINGER Drum Major Band members are: Braswell, Bennington, Berly, Bryson, Campbell, Disman, Fry, Graves, Hamilton, Harris, Harvey, 1 Heuberger, Hildinger, Hogue, Hooker, Huffman, Hurt, Johnson, Keyerleber, Lay, McKelva, McKinney, Mikel, l Morphew, Myers, Nobles, Norman, Patterson, Pearce, Ray, Reeder, Snyder, Tadlock, Taylor, Thomas, Ward, l Weaver, Westbrook, L.

Proof of this taste is this year's choice, Lometa Hildinger. The boys must have had ver- satility in mind when they chose Lometa, for she is an active participant in all' campus activities. Lometa hails from Bon- ham, Texas, and is a sophomore student this year. No other person could be more deserving of ROGD Sweetheart than Lometa, for she has proved herself to be an all-round student. ROYAL ORDER OF THE GREEN DRAGONS Lucky girl, if your boy friend happened to be in the ROGD! You attended the formal Christmas banquet when Lometa Hildinger was presented as Sweetheart of the club, the scavenger hunt, the trip to Tyler, the formal spring dance, and numerous other social events. For the members alone, there was that memorable initiation day, and the prize- winning Dragon float in the Homecoming Parade. This organization originated in 1944, and has been most successful in its third year at Paris Junior College. lts only requirement for members is that they take an active part in the club's functions. They have contributed a great deal of school spirit to P.J.C., and have devel- oped an unforgettable fellowship among its members. y OFFICERS Grand Master ...... .

The task was no easy one, for even yet shortages resemble those cluring war time. Because of these shortages in labor and ma- terial, the staff was forced to get the dummy in the hands of the printer earlier than usual. The iob could not have been clone except for the never-ending cooperation from many, both in and outside the school.

Through ads, which have been solicited by a hard- working and interested staff and assistants, we are able to publish this, the 1947 edition of The Galleon. As P.J.C. is a record-breaking college this year, we cannot leave out the fact that The Galleon has also accomplished some unusual feats. Along with the largest enrollment in the history of the school, our circulation campaign reached the peak of five hundred copies, the largest amount ever printed at P.J.C. While the Lamar County Fair was in progress, the Galleon staff, in collaboration with the ROGD, ran a stand, having fun as well as making dividends. We have attempted to increase school spirit by selling ribbons for the football and basketball games and by selling P.J.C. stickers for both cars and notebooks. We alsogsold miniature stickers, in fact, just about anything could be purchased in the Qalleon office, including peanuts! With football returning to P.J.C. after four years' absence, we had another stand which we ran at all the home games--more work, but more profit! Next came our advertising campaign, our goal of one thousand dollars was reached and surpassed. I would like to thank each and every member of the student body for his interest and enthusiasm in helping with his own book--you who sold ribbons, stickers, and worked in the stands, as well as you who helped by buying them. Thanks also goes to the faculty whose understanding and cooperation is deeply appreciated, and to the and women whose financial assistance helped in making this Galleon, which business men 'on of The lggl ' remember book possible. resent to you the Advertising Secti ok When you look through this section, We p is the life line of the bo .

Mrs. Ashmore: I hardly think so. You see, we have a man come every night who sprinkles powder around and kills them. Mrs. Neyland: Whenever I get down in the dumps, I buy a new hat. C. J. Cooper: ls that so? I was wondering where you got them. Mr. Turner: Are they very strict at school, Billy? Billy: Well, one guy died in Eco today, and they propped him up until the lecture ended. The only thing left in the world that can be shocked is grain. The moon was white: The road was dark, The perfect place To stop and park. He gave a sigh: He gave a groan. He cursed his fate: He was alone. Mrs. Fuller: Take this sentence: 'Let the cow be taken out of the lot.' What mood? Wanda Ward: The cow. Beg pardon, but aren't you one of the college boys? Now, I couldn't find my suspenders this morning, my razor blades were used up, and a bus just ran over my hat. Miss Smith: This exam will be given on the honor sys- tem. Please sit three seats apart in alternate rows. An instructor will be placed between every two students. Mrs. Baxter: Sonny, don't use such bad words. Charles: Shakespeare used them. Mrs. Baxter: Well, don't have any more to do with him. Page T66 A wolf is a member of the male species who has de- voted the best leers of his life to women. Have you heard about the fellow who walked into a bar optimistically and left misty optically? Mr. McPherson: Are you teaching this class? Joe Edzards: No, sir. Mr. McPherson: Well, then, sit down and stop acting like an idiot. Walking one day with a friend, Mr. Norris passed a large fish shop where a fine catch of codfish, with mouths wide open and eyes staring, were arranged in a row. Mr. Norris suddenly stopped, looked at them, and clutching his friend by the arm, exclaimed: Heavens, that reminds me-I should be teaching a class. Maynita Love: There is a patient in my ward who hasn't made love to me yet. Thalia Skeen: One of mine is unconscious, too, Joe Murphy: l hear your blind date was sorta homely. Hugh Hooks: Homelyl Say, that gal was so homely that when we walked along the waterfront even the tugs stopped whistling! Sound Advice - Never shift your mouth into high gear until you're sure your brain is turning over. Mrs. Bland: Lenore, every time you stay out so late I get another gray hair. Lenore: Jiminy, Mother, you must have hit the high spots - look at Grandma's hair. Ray Williams: Hey, your shoes are mixed. You've got the left shoe on the right foot. Amos Priddy: And here, for twenty years, I've thought I was clubfootedf' Sonny Ford: If you don't marry me, I'll blow my brains out. Martha Snyder: That would be a ioke on Father. He Cloesn't think you have any. Love makes the world go 'roundg but then, so does a good swallow of tobacco juice. Mrs. Watkins: I want an explanation and I want the truth. Hank: Well, make up your mind. Warren Dill says. Doctors get by-they have inside information. The Freshman English classes recently had the follow- ing study in punctuation: Woman - without her, man would be a savage. Woman, without her man, would be a savage. Doddie Blackburn: Goin' to the party? Johnny Mosley: Sure, Doddie: Who ya draggin'? Johnny: Nobody, Doddie: Don'cha know you can't go stag? Johnny: Yes Doddie: Well - '? Johnny: She walks -I ain'tdraggin' any dame. A bum leaning against a lamp post, spit his cigarette butt out and asked a rapidly approaching freshman if he had a nickel for a cup of coffee. Not quite, replied Henry Braswell, but l'll get along all right. Now I lay me down to sleep: The prof is dry, the lecture's deep. If he should quit before I wake, Someone kick me, for goodness sake! Funeral Director Orbie Floyd Ito an aged mourneri: How old are you? Mourner: l'll be ninety-eight next month. Orbie: Hardly worth going home, is it? Betty Fennel Cat a dancel: Wait right here for me, Ki, while I go powder my nose. Betty ithree dances lateri: Been waiting long? Charles Kirkindoll: No, but l've been looking all over for you to give you your compact. Norma Jean Reeder: Do you have any airmail en- velopes? Nell Barnett lbook store operatori: No, will some fly paper do? Campus Cut-Ups The little moron's watch had stopped ticking, and he tried to find the trouble. Finally, he took the back off of it, went into the works, and found a dead bug. No wonder it doesn't work, he said, the engi- neer's dead. Traffic Cop: Soon as I saw you I said to myself, 'Forty- five at least.' Miss Evans: Well, you needn't be so insulting, officer, ii's this hat that makes me -look so old. And then there was the man who rebelled against helping his wife dye her hair. He just didn't like giving the old henna rinse. Employer: So you have been to college, eh? How high can you count? Leroy Whitaker: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, jack, queen, king. Then there was the co-ed working her way through college selling Saturday Evening Posts, until she found the boys wanted to take Liberties. Mrs. George: What binds us together, sustains us, shapes our ends, and makes us better than nature intended? , Bitsy Duncan: Girdles. Hugh Brown: You're not living at the some boarding house any more, are you? Tinker Mills: No, I stayed five weeks and then found out they had no bathtub. Oh, dear, l've missed you so much! And then she raised her revolver and tried again. There was a young maid from Iran, Who said, 'fYes, if I possibly can, l'll go onto college To get me some knowledge, But mostly, l'm after a man. Then there was the cross-eyed professor who couldn't control his pupils. We editors may dig and toil Till our fingers are sore, But some poor fish is sure to say, l've heard that joke before.
