Leading many a grey sheep' who wouldn't follow Mary to school, back on the path, is today his main duty. We, the Senior Class, will not only remember Mr. Rambo as our Vice-Principal, but also as a teach- er. I-le at one time taught World History and Speech. Mr. Rambo isusually seen with a group of students, sometimes laughing,sometirnes serious, but always friendly, always eager to en- ter in with the students in their activities. lt. is with gratitude that we dedicate this '53 Bear Memories to Mr. Carl Rambo. -Kmnii H H Wxttenburg V Prec. 1 M D R Ralston v- 'i R, S.

But, also like us Elmer has serious thoughts and works that are as much a part of his life as the fun. One of the more serious organizations at P. S, J, A. is the student council that serves as acompactbetweenthose who govern and those who are governed. They are our own legislature elected by the different states , in our case ahome room. From these representatives officers are elected by the entire student body. The leaders in the student council are foremost among all Student officials They parallel zn importance to ou r school the officers of the federal government Being chosen one of these le ade rs 15 an honor among honors but the se students must shoulder the numerous responsibilities that go with the honor They must se e that our school IS favorably represented at alltlmes that there 19 no discontent among the students that the faculty s views are explained to the students In short the student counc1l officers must boost the sometimes hes1tantP S I A ers to greater heights .ana-1-IP'- NO 'bf' .3--4 but P.

H Coaches Stewart and Cooke look over a play used by the Bears in 1952. Fighting Bears . .. Statistically the Be a r s didn't rank very high. They scored only 103 points to their opponents' 220. Mentally they we re a great team. They never gave up until the final whistle and th e i r spirit was some- thing wonderful to see. We salute the en- tire 1952 Bear football squad. 4 Dick Bernard sees an opening at the Mission game. The Bears dropped their opening game of the season on September 12 to the Mercedes Tigers by a 6-0 count. The game was purely a defensive one that saw Mercedes scoring scant minutes before the end ofthe game and the Bears being stopped short by the clock. Donna's Ken Whilhite and company proved too much for the Bruins on September 9 as they scalped the Bears Z5-0. The Bears' highly regarded passing attack failed to materialize.

Heavy underdogs, the Bears uppe d their prestige by holding the Brownsville Eagles to a Z6-Z6 deadlock on October 10. The Bruins showed t r e me nd o u s spirit and led Z6-19 until the final minute which saw an intercepted pass. On October 16 the Bears d r 0 ppe d a hard-fought tilt 19-O to the San Benito Greyhounds. Billy Parsons' running proved too much forthe Bruins who tried mightily but never seemed to get started.
