P01-ITICLL D UUE Chief Gentry Rescues Blondes From Flames Compact Powder and Rouge Co. Destroyed. Mamie Capell, Nannie Atkin- son, and Odis Coleman, over- come by smoke from fire which totally destroyed the Compact Powder and Rouge Company early today, we1'e carried to safety in an unconscious condi- tion, from the 30th floor of the burning building, by Fire Chief Jay Gentry of the Ft. Worth Fire Department. Shouts greeted Chief Gentry as he appeared in the window of the 30th floor carrying the three girls, and a hushed silence fell upon the crowd as he made his way cautiously down the seventy-five foot ladder with the l precious parcels under his arms. Chief Gentry's moustache was severely singed, but the women soon recovered and asked for rouge and powder. Chief Gentry was reticent when praised by the girls for his daring and prowess. Later he said that he owed his strength to Ellina. Several spectators were ques- tioned as to the origin of the fire. Marvin Youngblood, prom- inent lawyer, said he knew noth- ing of it other than that on seeing the building enveloped in flames, he thought it must be on fire. Clyde Weed, street in- spector, when asked, said, I didn't see nuthin', until I come up on Main Street where the crowd wuz. I haint seen no- body runnin' around though, as looks like they might a set it on fire. The janitor, Hugh McCor- mick up to a late hour today! fContinued on Page Twoj l The Reunion of a Great Class Class of '24 Meets in P. H. S. Auditorium. Never have so many great people assembled in one gath- ering since the peace conference at Versailles in 1919, until the graduating class of 1924 of the Polytechnic High School met last night in the auditorium of their old Alma Mater. Besides the ninety-six who were graduated in 1924, probab- ly 1,000 others attended, includ- ing their families, old faculty members, and the 1924 Board of Education. Members of the Class of '24 who spoke to the assembly were Professor Leo Schmidt, presi- dent of State University, who talked on Teachers we have taught, and Smith Langford on Divorce and what it has done for me. The Honorable Glenn Canfield, the eminent psy- chologist was present, also Gar- land Roberts, inventor of the indeterminate gear for gasless autos. Many of the old g'raduates are listed among the Thousand Starred Men of Science, the most outstanding being Dick Parman. With few exceptions the entire group can be found in the 1934 Who's Who. The Class of '24 is in all re- spects the glory of P. H. S., and should be an inspiration to the members of the Class of '34, who at its commencement-time have the privilege of attending this convention. , Texas Farmer 4 Wins by Large Majority Over New York Gov. The greatest presidential elec- tion in the history of the coun- try ended tonight with a majori- ty of 90,000,000 votes for the Texas farmer, Mr. Jay Francis. This has been, according to fig- ures, the largest presidential landslide ever recorded and to the surprise of every voter, it went in favor of Mr. Francis. Gov. Lyman Boswell of New York having received the small minority of the votes cast says, I have fought a clean fight and fought it well. I hope the best man has won. Mr. Francis and the first wo- man vice-president, Katie Sue Findley, will go into office next March 4. Miss Findley has an- nounced that she will be the mainstay at the Capitol and all important business will be trans- acted through her. Mr. Francis will have charge of the keepers and janitors of the Capitol, she announces. The new cabinet will be, it is announced: Secretary of State-Esther , Yarbrough. Secretary of War-Otis Fitts. Secretary of Treasury-James Gilliam. Secretary of Navy-Kenneth Ford. Secretary Dept. Labor-Smith Langford. Secretary Dept. Agriculture -Theodore Brown. Secretary Dept. Commerce- Jessie Smith. Ruby Phillips, campaign man- ager for the successful candi- date, will be private secretary to the new president.

Yale sustained the attack of the vicious Harvard team today, and emerged from the field marked with the hardest grid- iron struggle of the decade. Mat- thews and Bond, coaches for Yale, are extremely proud of their boys. They are very much elated over their victory because the coaches of the Harvard team, Sanders and Hays, were their old team-mates in Poly- technic High School of this city in 1924. No stellar plays were made, the two machines clash- ing together steadily to see how many opponents' heads could be smashed. POLY WINS OVER CENTRAL Ancient Grudge Between Schools Settled Temporarily. The Parrots of Poly High jumped upon the Panthers of Central High, yesterday and clawed and peeked the largest end of the score out of the Pan- thers to the tune of 72 to 0. For many years the Parrot has been in the jaws of the Panther, and it is hoped that the students of Poly High will not tear up the town. The Panthers played a good game but were completely outclassed by the college-like Poly team. The 72 to 0 score completely satisfied the Parrots and they flew off the field in the highest of spirits. How a graduation invitation should read: The Senior Class of Polytechnic High School announce that they have at last put it over the teachers and will receive their sheepskins on the night of June 3, at 8 P. M. You needn't come, but be sure to send a present. Do not send handkerchiefs, as we have no colds and a full supply has al- ready been received. A watch, diamond, or car would be ac- ceptable. P.

It is presumed that on discovering the fire in the early stages, in the excite- ment, he fell down the elevator shaft and was unable to extract himself. The fire which destroyed the building caused a loss of about 31.98 worth of powder and rouge, approximately 330,000,- 000 loss to the building, was dis- covered by patrolman Coy Mor- rison, who immediately turned in the alarm.

Worth People Hurt in Crash Dean Ivy and his two passen- gers, Berniece Feemster and Kate Lee, all of Fort Worth, sustained a few scratches and a carload of thrills when the air- plane in which they were riding crashed to earth in the midst of a herd of longhorn cattle near Abilene, Texas, this morn- ing. The plane was completely demolished but the three flyers were only scratched. The large held of longhorns completely surrounded the plane and ground it to pieces with their hoofs and horns, but the two girls with their ability to handle cattle, achieved and displayed at the Fat Stock Show and Rodeo, jumped upon the cattle and rode to safety. The pilot, Mr. Ivy, succeeded, by main strength and awkwardness, in battling his way out of the maddened herd. of his head, what gems are found '? Can he use, when shingling the roof of his mouth, the nails on the end of his toes? I'1l be hanged if I know, do you? Can the crook of his elbow be sent to jail? Can he sit in the shade of the palms of his hands? Or beat on the drum of his ear? Does the calf of his leg eat the corn on his toes? If so, why not grow corn on his ear?

Children Cry For It, by the well known au- thor, C. Fletcher Castoria, was presented by the Sons and Daughters of the Trinity River, last night at the Majestic Theater. The leading role, that of Baby Clara, was taken by Mrs. Ray Matthews, formerly Miss Ruth McNaught. This portrayed her excellent characterization and brought more than one tear to the eyes of the audience when they applied the garlic furnish- ed by the ushers, Countess Cal- lan, Modrel Cooper, and Mayme Yager. The part of the villain who was caught in the act of steal- ing the baby's food, was played by John Newberry. He incur- red the hatred of the entire au- dience by his cruel treatment of the poor child. The anxious mother, who bravely fought off the villain was Miss Alma Hub- bard, who has been seen here in a number of hair-raising dramas. The remainder of the cast included James Sanders, the lover, Lorraine Knight, the mother-in-lawg Alice Reynolds, the maid, and L. T. Easley, the butler. All played their parts equally well and added deeply to the pathos of the play. The house was filled to ca- pacity and the organization is reported to have cleared 551.98 net proceeds.

MOOIIE Business Manager An ardent supporter of high school athletics in Poly Hi. a friend of all boys, and one whose managing and financial ability has always made both ends meet. RAYMOND MA'l'TllEWS End '20, 'Zl, '22. Captain 'Zl. Xvhen the name Rags is men- tioned-All-City end is the an- swer. Matthews has been one of the best all-around players Poly has ever had. The Col- lege that gets Rags will be very fortunate, as he is a good stu- dent as wclluas a sure tackler. Page 7 3 HARRY BLACK Quarter Skip has all the essentials necessary for a good quarter- headwork. snap and fight. The past season has shown that he had these qualities. for he was unanimously selected as All-City quarter by sport writers. Harry is Captain-elect for 'Z-1. HOMLR BOND Cenler Skinnie. playing his first season as a regular this year. played like a veteran and showed some real form in the art of passing the ball. Poly will miss Homer in the line-up next year as he graduates this year. SMITH LANGFORD Guard Smith played a wonderful game at guard all the season. Although only a first-year man. he was Ubattling 'em every minute. Poly will lose a good guard when the sheepskins are passing around this spring. JAMLQS SANDERS End Although he was rather light, James played in nearly all of the games the past season and showed some real Hght to make up for his handicap in weight. James leaves us this year. Page 74 RAYMOND LEE CROUCH Quurler Raymond showed the mak- ings of a wonderful quarterback. but when Harry came into school. he was shifted to line. where he played a nice game. Raymond l.ee. Poly is expecting much from you next year. PAUL CURLEE Guard Paul proved a good running mate for Smith at guard and held down either side of the line with equal ability. Much is ex- pected from him next year. EMMITT JONES Tackle Flop's general all-round work anywhere on the line proved him to be the best utility man Hansard had. He will be back next year. WALTER HARRIS Center Iron Head's good work on the pivot position and halfback marks him as a man to be watched next season as a coming star. Page 7 5 Al.BliR'li FLYNN Full Slim's great line plunging as a first-year man this season. coupled with his punting and passing. gives him the earmarks of the best triple treat man in the city next year. XVf'Xl.l.AClf l'fVN'lil.l, Tackle lVloco's sure tackling was a feature of every game this year. No doubt he would have been placed on one of the All- City elevens had not an injured shoulder in mid-season kept him out of the last few games. Wal- lace graduates this year. HORACE Wl-lI'l'lE Half Rowdy's plunges on weak side bucks were always good for three or four yards. He was probably the surest man in the back field when a couple of yards were needed. Next year Horace should have a great sea- -son in the backfield. CECIL lVlCCORD Tackle Mack's wonderful defen- sive and offensive work all the season earned him a place on the second All-City eleven. He upheld his reputation from Cisco, where he was Captain in 'Z2. Cecil will be back next year for his fourth year of high school athletics. Page 7 6 Gll,l3l:RT Dl2lVlPSl5Y Guard Jack did not round into form until rather late in the sea- son, but when he did come thru. he tore great holes for his backs. in the opposing lines. .lack should have a great year next season. FRENCH STONE Half Frenchy's side-stepping is very seldom seen on a tirst year man, and by the time he has played another season, he should he ranked as one of the best halves in the city. AUBRFY ATKINSON End Aubrey has the weight. size. and aggressiveness of a good end and all he lacks is experience. lf he plays next season as he played in the North Side game this year, he will be ranked as one of the best ends in the city. JACK WOMACK Half Jack never failed to gain when he was called upon to carry the ball, but his best work was his interference running. He always blocked his man in or out as the play called for. Jack will be back next year. Page 7 7 1 3 . ,fe--fr. Nl ' Nl Eval ! ' A l - f -V 'V . F , ggks'---ii-f- ' '-'- ' - f' v--1 L lf-4- -- Y ---o-o- 7 L-L'-I- -Tl- 'Z4'5-712'-1, . I - g. .

The odds were against Poly in this game from several viewpoints and her team lost by the score of 27 to 13. The next game was played with Central High in the Poly L 'l 11 tv 11 1 gymnasium. Poly had an easy victory over the 43 to 10. The girl cagers met Denton High on Poly gymnasium. After one of the best games by clean sportsmanship by both teams, Poly lost ' il .

North Side fell in defeat in tk Parrot's gymnasium for the first time in two years by a score of 12 to 1. Central and Arlington Heights were again Poly's victims, losing by large scores. On March 28 Poly played at Denton scoring 22 points to Denton's 14. At the end of the '24 season Poly and North Side were tied for city championship honors, each having lost only to the other. On April 3 these two teams met on the First Baptist floor in the last game of the season. This game was characterized by excellent passing and accurate goal shooting, but owing to the Poly team's superior team work and undaunted spirit the North Side Girls simply had their eyes pecked out by the Parrots. Because of this victory Poly won the city championship.

Coach Hansard issued first call for baseball aspiranls. They reported for practice at Sycamore Parlt. and after three weeks of work, the Coach cut the squad to twenty men. These twenty battled for the regular berths for a week. Then the lucky ones were taken to Bridgeport to win a three-game series. The following Saturday the team journeyed to Van Alstyne and lost one game. Upon their return. they defeated Arlington Heights in the Grst game of the City series.

The purpose of this club was to make the two staffs more unified, and to enable them to co-operate more fully in the two publications. lt has been very successful in these things and in its social affairs as well. The Press Cluh belongs to the Press Association and is greatly interested in it. Two representatives, Buck Hood. from The Poly Parrot staff and Glenn Canfield. from The Parrot staff, were sent to the Texas State High School Press Association Convention. which was recently held at Belton.

'lo be in the Commercial Department of Poly l-ligh is to be associated daily with pupils who have a definite aim in life. Not all of them will go into the business world. Some will use their training toward advancing their general education. Others. while in college, will specialize in some branch of the Commercial Arts. At least all of them will have found a point of contact with the great industrial life of today, And in years to come when we pick up those magazines which tell about successful men and women. we expect to find, every now and then. a photograph that looks laniiliar: and under the picture will he these words: He received his tirst training at Polytechnic lligh School.

Qt, ' - The purpose of military training in the high schools is not to make military ' men out of the boys. but to convert them into the Finest type of American citizenship. However. to do this, there must be a foundation upon which to build. This is pro- ,il ' V duced b elementary military drills, military courtesy, shooting, hysical trainin . 1 I A V I P H camping, scouting. and leadership. .-1- All of the above subjects are carried out in the Polytechnic Cadet Company 4 t the Hrst four school days of the week. while Friday is used for games. Close and extended order drills become very interesting to the cadet. This is , l t , proved by the fact that Polytechnic High School won first place in competitive squad drill held by all city schools. , I The whole company always looks forward to the day of the rifle range and the V1 beginning of gallery practice.

Many entertaining games, such as We're Marching Round the Levee, Fruit Basket Turn Over, Spin the Plate, Little White House Over the Hill, and Winkum, were played: and such appro- priate contests as a Heart Race and a contest for the most original valentine were taken part in.

SENIOR BANQUET One of the most brilliant social affairs of the season was the banquet given by the Senior Class for the Annual. Four hundred and fifty guests were ushered into the lunch room where the tables were beautifully decorated in the various class colors. When the noise was quieted, Superintendent Moore returned thanks and the guests were then served a delicious chicken dinner by the mothers and members of the Senior Class. After all the appetites had been appeased, Charles Ellis, acting as toastmaster, thanked the mothers for their untiring efforts in making the affair a success. Mr. Benny Potts, reporter from the Star-Tele- gram sang Dreamy Melody accompanied by May Belle Boaz on the piano. Each class then gave a clever stunt which counted fifty per cent toward the prize offered for the best stunt and most artistic table. While the decision of the judges was being made, a chicken, ham, and some pies were auctioned off. Mr. Moore then presented the prize, a beautiful picture of a Texas bluebonnet field, painted by Mrs. Vance, one of the Senior mothers. to the Senior Class. Miss Thornton, of the Southwestern Engraving Company, gave an interesting talk on Annual work. After this, May Belle Boaz played Last Night on the Back Porch' on the piano while six girls dressed in class colors walked around the tables and sang a song about the sale of annuals. Lyman Boswell, speaking in behalf of the class, expressed his ap- preciation to the mothers and guests for their 'hearty co-operation in making the banquet a success. The crowd was the dismissed by Mr. Stricklin. Page Ill .4. ?5EiGFiWS ff 'f l f , I , 1 M , V ,A...,,T-.

One, crowded and teeming with human beings, leads to the depths of failure. The other, thinly sprinkled with men and women of courage and ambition, stretches out to the glowing heights of success-to com- fort, influence, wealth and independence. Which road will you take? Will you choose the crowded, sunken road that leads to the human scrap heap, or will you take the clear, open road to success-the road upon which there is plenty of room for YOU-the friendly road, where everyone has a happy smile of welcome? Will you choose that road which is lined with everything that makes life worth living? Now is the time to decide. Both roads beckon, and remember, you will- you must-take one. Which will it be?
