HURD WREN Football '253 President Class of '25. Although Hurd was not known to the students of Poly High before this year, he was elected president of the class. What more could be said as to his pop- ularity? Y III! gnu-El, H Q 2, 5 .'mmmmfI'mnullmmnm.uu.ml 1 IHIHIIIllilill'llIXl1!l1M1lll llmllm Dear Hurd. How can I express my joy at your safe return to civilization? Joy for old friendship's sake, and joy for what your return will mean to the United States. How glad I am that you have explored this vast territory and planted upon it the flag of our country. Gone ten years! Much has happened since you sailed away those long years ago. As you have been so far from civilization, perhaps you would like to know of the fortunes of your classmates of '25. Last summer on my return visit from Europe, by chance I stopped in Washington for a few days. The presidential campaign was in full swing. Rena Alvis was the candidate of the National Woman's Party, being the first woman candidate for the office of president. Her campaign managers, Gladys Brister and Josephine Collier, were so successful in their work that Rena was elected by a large majority. The Class of '25 has produced the eighth wonder of the world in the guise of the firm of Collins and Elliott, two oil magnates who have not spent a term in jail. Wallace Ewell, now the commander-in-chief of the United States Army, has just quelled an uprising of the Japanese, which was instigated by three former Poly High students, J. C. Grable, Vale Parker, and Mack McWhir- ter, who claim that the United States should be vanquished because of the feeble-mindedness of the people in electing a woman for president. Ellen Alexander and Shirley Lawing are touring the country, lectur- ing on The Annihilation of the Male Species from the Human Race. Many people are in sympathy with their attitude and the situation has become so serious, that Jack Garrison, Jack McWhirte1', Henry Lee Stout, and Walter Harris are leaving the United States for the Fiji Islands where they will be safe from all harm. The twentieth century Aristotle, none other than Bertel Jenkins, has gained universal fame for his latest work on philosophy, entitled Idiosyn- cracies and Their Hereditary Traces. E. Rachel Caylor, the great com- edienne, has produced a burlesque of Bertel's book and has featured it on Broadway, and by doing so has created much public opinion. It has been rumored that Bertel is bringing suit against her through the law firm, Cur- rie, Hunt and Doggett, on the grounds that his reputation as an authority on philosophy has been ridiculed and thus his standing lessened. But, as Rachel is to be defended by the shyster lawyer, Hazel Kinney, it is thought that the suit will not be successful. Dalby Crites has become the director of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. Roberta Dedmon has been studying music under Paderewski, but, hav- ing finished that course, is completing her study under Marguerite Oliver. Albert Flynn and Jewel Beasley have built up a steady business by publishing a weekly magazine, The Matrimonial Ship, a paper noted for its aid in reconciling unsuccessful marriages. John Burgess has recently been elected president of the Robbers and Hi-Jackers' Country Bank, and it is said the bank has become exceedingly prosperous. Everett Kenelly's voluminous voice has at last won for him national fame. He is at present one of the foremost motion picture directors in the movie world. In his latest film he starred Gale Tomlin and Harry Fort Worth Texas June 6, 1942.

Loree Dalton has become a great woman boxing champion and rival of Jimmie McFadden. She and her manager, Louise Osburne, have recently toured the country. Mildred Austin has become famous for setting the poetry of the Cow- boy Poet to music, while Pauline Herring is attracting great masses by rendering these songs as vocal solos in concert tour. Eunice Cromer won first honors in the Olympic meet last year as representative from the United States. On her return home, she became the guest of America's richest capitalist, Mr. John O. McEntire, who re- cently purchased the famous McCarty Automobile Works. Cleo Foster, an extraordinary stenographer who takes ninety-five words a minute and two hours for lunch, has become Mr. McEntire's private secretary. Fleming Loden, having completed her college course, is now united in the Holy Bunk of Matrimony. The newspapers are heralding the latest discovery of the chemist, Webster Lobdell. It is said that he discovered a gas which is forty times as light as helium, and which will revolutionize the air program of the gov- ernment. But Webster has met with some opposition, for Roquemore Brown, a famous Senator of much power, has openly accused the chemist of false representation, saying that the discovery is absolutely groundless. This is creating quite a disturbance at present. As I was walking down the street last week, I noticed a sign which read, Cowan and Donaldson Circus coming Friday. The show was com- posed entirely of former Poly High students. Among them were Zella Gribble, tight rope walker, Veta Grove, animal trainer, Mattie Mae Powell, fattest woman in the world, Maude Lanham, famous bare back rider, Frank Scrivner, sword swallowerg Mildred Cooper, snake charmerg Thomas Nichols, wild man, and Ashford Miner and Grettel Matthews, midgets. Also there were many clowns, some of whom I shall mention, Earl Scott, Irby Spear, Ernestine Carmichael and Ada Williams. Mildred Guinn, an opera star, is now touring the country, singing in the company with Wendell Pendleton, the only rival of Caruso. Wade Hawkins, newly elected president of the United American Gas Association, has been accused of forgery, and has been taken into custody by the two famous women detectives, Julia Brandt and Marie Brown. Al- though Wade has emphatically declared his innocence, it is feared by his friends that he will be convinced, for he is to be tried before the judge, Neil Carmichael, who is noted for his decisions based on technicalities, of which there are many that will be against Wade in this case. Geraldine Ray and Nedra Cooper are teaching school in the great metropolis of the South, Joshua, Texas. A faction of women, of which Roberta Johnson is leader, is advocating that the position of men and women be entirely reversed so that man may realize and appreciate the value of woman's presence on earth. Among the foremost of this group are Dee Rema Parker, Claire E. Kiker, Leva Morrison, Bess Nordyke, Audrey Parmon, and Patt Lowe. The Old Maid's Convention is in session here, with the following prom- inent members on the program: Isabel King, Gertrude Latimer, Venis Knight, Vesta Nelson, and Frances Major. They are accomplishing great things and are daily increasing the membership of the club. The other day, while down at the station, I met Cassie Thomas, who -I Il'1llllll1Itll12al!JlmmlllIl2lIl!WInlll1lml nu : Bl--lllllllll H 9 1 5 .nmillliurxrwuml 1 1 was bound for Reno to obtain a divorce. She complained that married life was unsuccessful and that she wished to be free once more J. F. Thompson is one of our leading men in Wall Street, but as yet has found no one to lead him, and he seems to be enjoying this single blessedness. , Frankie Dell Jones, Clara Faye Shoemaker and Mary Frances Kell have become nuns in the convent. They seem to be very happy and devoted to their duty. Last Wednesday, while transacting business at the bank, I happened upon my friend, Kate Williams, who was cashier there. As I was talking to her, I was interrupted by someone whom I finally recognized as none other than Hazel Paschal. She was trying to borrow ten dollars from the bank, but Kate, being a shrewd and practical business woman, refused to lend it without security, of which Hazel had none, so was forced to leave empty handed. Last summer, while in Paris, I visited the famous shoppe of Mme. Laurie, whom you would know better as Annie Laurie Seymour. Her models were Evaline Sandlin, Addie Belle Rochelle, and Gladys Scott. This shoppe had become famous for both its designer and its models. I noticed recently in the paper where Rowena Hunter, famous novelist, accompanied by Janie Marie Philips, was touring the country and was received everywhere with the greatest applause. Doris Newberry and Juanita Wilkerson are still advocating the independence of the Philippine Islands. They have recently been brought into custody by Harmon Shankle, one of the United States Secret Service officials, because they were found guilty of stirring up the people of the Islands to rebellion against our government. Wilbur McDaniel, the renown archaeologist, is at present doing re- search work in Asia Minor. It has been rumored by many that he has found a clew to the missing link. Reba Milrany and Mary Leach have established a new industry in China. They have a two hundred-acre farm on which they raise pedigreed rats and mice, which they sell to the nobility as a great delicacy. They are doing a prosperous business and are contemplating introducing the industry in the United States and placing Eunice Etchison and Marie Tole in charge of it. They have been offered vast sums for their present farm by the Sec- retary of Agriculture, Vernon Pompell, but they have refused the offers. Virginia Halliday is President of West Point-an honor which has never before been accessible to women. It was through Mary Roach's in- fluence that girls have been allowed to attend this school. The Plunket Follies, with Elsie Pearl Hodges and Opal Tubbs in the leading roles, has completely surpassed the fame of the Ziegfeld group. Although all of these have gained world-wide fame, none are more noted than Norma Parham, composer of the celebrated comic opera, The Organ Grinder, and Cordie Mitchell, starring in the leading role. Little did we realize, while we were Seniors at Poly High, that in years to come, the members of our class would become so prominent. But suc- cess comes to those who open the Golden Door of Opportunity. Permit me, in closing, to quote a line from a famous author, Success comes in cans, failure in can'ts. Q lllllllllll WI!

SENIOR HALLOVVE EN PARTY The Seniors of 25 were royally entertained in the Poly High gym- nasium on Hallowe en night. The gym was beautifully decorated in Hal- lowe en colors with wltches cats and hobgoblms everywhere As the guests assembled they were received and escorted into the land of mystery by the ghosts of the underworld When everyone was there the grand march began, led by the Class President, Hurd Wren, and the Vice-President, Doris Newberry. The next event was a big surprise to the dignified Seniors. They were led in couples to the throne of King John and Queen Mildred, who asked them what person they loved the most in the world. Of course they lied very promptly and as a penalty, were forced to kneel before the sovereigns and place their palms on the silver plate. When they complied, they received the shock of their lives, by way of electricity. The guests then had their fortunes told, ducked for apples, and found out when they were to marry. Refreshments were served to about one hundred guests, who pro- nounced it a delightful party.

Garrison of Polytechnic entertained the Hi-Y and Girl Reserve Clubs at Meadowbrook Country Club on Friday, January 16th. Mrs. Garrison received her guests at the door, after which they were ushered to the ballroom above. A color scheme of blue-and white was carried out and the club house was artistically decorated. Jack Walker's Jazz Orchestra furnished music which greatly enlivened the already lively party. Showers of confetti fell amidst the rainbow colors and myriads of lights. Games were played and contests were held. A grand march was staged, in which all of the guests participated. Favors were given in the form of many colored paper caps, and the rainbow wound about the room to the strains of the music. Members of the Parent-Teacher's Club attended and- watched from their seats the gaity on the fioor. They cast envious eyes at the merriment there. Refreshments were served to about two hundred happy members of the clubs, who left, feeling that this was the most delightful occasion of the season. HI-Y SAVAGELAND MINSTREL The H1-Y Minstrel entitled Savage Land was given in the Poly- technic High School Auditorium Thursday evening February 26th. The The personnel of the mmstrel consisted entirely of Poly High boys with the exception of Mr Mitchel who gave a few dances -Richard Parmon the interlocuter and Charles Ellis one of the end men were members of the H1 Y last year The other men were Marlin Bone Black Hollls, Web- ster Fertilizer Lobdell Paul Flu Jay Curlee Reagan Shallowbraln Rutledge and Lonnie Cannonball Carruth . , ' Y , -v, .

The personnel of this orchestra is as follows: Henry Lee Stout, cornetg Parker Taulman, drumsg Jack Walker, leader and banjog Dalby Crites, clarinet and saxophone, Frank Scrivner, saxophone, Forrest White, violin, and Milton Wood, piano. The music played by the orchestra was said to be the best ever rendered by a group of high school students. The credit for the success of the show goes to Miss Mildred Puckett, who directed the boys, to Miss Louise Puckett, who helped with the music, and to Mr. Carlton, who had charge of the costumes. The chorus was composed of forty Hi-Y boys, neatly attired in uni- forms with black, long-tailed coats, some black and some yellow ties, white shirts, yellow trousers, and black shoes. Aubrey Atkinson sang two songs that brought loud applause from the audience. Jack Walker gave a very interesting selection on the banjo. The management of the minstrel is as follows: Mr. D. W. Carlton, general supervisor, Frank Lindsey, business manager, Wallace Ewell, stage manager, and Frank Youngblood, cartoonist. SENIOR BANQUET The most brilliant affair of the social season was the banquet given by the Senior Class for the annual. Two hundred and fifty guests were present and were served a delicious chicken dinner by the mothers of the Parent-Teachers Association. The Seniors of last year were also present. Kennedy Orr and his sister, Miss Marjorie, furnished the musical en- tertainment for the Freshman stunt. Harry Jeane Boone and two Soph- omore boys performed a difficult and dangerous operation as the Soph- omore stunt. Margaret Speer and her numerous lovers gave quite a laugh- provoking stunt for the Juniors. Then came the Senior stunt. A number of dignified Seniors made themselves ridiculous by imitating young Loch- invar and illustrating the poem about him. Last, but certainly not least, came Dick Parmon and Chock Ellis, popular Seniors of '24, who per- formed one of the most popular stunts of the evening. The Freshmen won the prize for the best stunt and the Seniors won first prize for the most beautifully decorated table. Hurd When, President of the Senior Class, acted as toastmaster for the evening., M ' J GRGANIZATIONS mueux.-sv n - M- 1 umm m u m- A Y x .

Although it has been taught here only a few months, nevertheless the students are taking so much interest in the course that the classes have become overcrowded. - It has been discovered that many of the students have excellent talent alonlg this line, and the purpose of the course is to develop such ability as t is. Under the supervision of Miss Sallie Gillespie, the Art Club, which has for its aim the appreciation and understanding of the beauty of art, was organized. The membership in the organization has rapidly 'increased and indications are that still more pupils will take up this work next term. The following are the names of the students who are studying art this term: D Olen Puckett Virginia Medford Norma Parham Maude Sims Faye Garrett Frankie Dell Jones Benetta Ross Margaret Mackey Jessie Lawlis Mattie Mae Powell Gretel Matthews Annie Laurie Seymour Harold Reigle Fern McCarty Audrey Parmon Wingate Williams Eunice Miller Tressye Ellis Marcella Sprouls Ruby Russel Margaret Irving Clara Sullivan Juanita Noble Claire E.

M. C. A., was organ- ized in 1920 under the direction of Mr. O. O. Burkenholden of the Y. M. C. A. The enrollment, which originally numbered eight boys, has increased to forty. The President of the Club is a member of the State World Out- look Committee. The organization has striven in every possible way to help in all school activities. During the football season, it staged the Hi-Y Circus' to raise money for the football sweaters. The minstrel, also sponsored by the Hi-Y boys, was given for the benefit of the basketball sweater fund. Under auspices of this club, several bands and orchestras have been brought to Polytechnic High School-A. Sz M. Band, Fred Cahoon's Orchestra, Jim Riley's Texas Hotel Orchestra, Frensley Moo1'e's Black and Gold Sere- naders and several others. Purpose: To create, maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian Character. l 114915 J ,,, , wr , M.-,..-4 , 4 1 3-:f,'.,., '1 ' ' ' ' WV xg ' u.f2,,'x.,1 M uk ,I , :Qi v gm iii Vi is irsl Row Wilkorsuu ll'1'm-s.I, Miss llulwl' 1SpulNurr, Nw-wnul Rum- Johnson :Som-.4'l'1'1-.1s.I, HUl'l'ill!, Austin, Ahlmtl, Kinmfy. ,, lhilwl Row lluinn, Tulxhs, Ilullon, Kiki-r, Huy.

Too much praise cannot be given to the members of these teams. Each of the debaters, by extensive reading and long hours of practice, was able to handle the question efficiently. The teams met all other city, and many out-of-town teams in practice debates, and were defeated only twice during the entire season. The girls, in addition to preparing the Interscholastic League question, worked up the debate, Resolved: That the Recent Child Labor Amend- ment Should Be Ratified and Made a Part of the Basal Law of the Land. The work of both teams was exceptionally good and We foresee a bright future for the Poly High debaters. It is not to be supposed that these teams could have met with such success had it not been for the competent training given them by their coach, Miss Mildred Puckett. She is to be commended for her untiring ef- forts and patience as Well as her efficiency. The success with which the team met is proof enough as to her ability. -I N 5 M lllH'llllllliIllllllll'IlllI ll ll 'Ill 'mllklllll lllhilwshlllllfln B Q E 5 .llI!lll!Il'lt!!'1l1ll1l1!llYiVLlllll2l1lllfUl llXl'llIll1YllIl!l!llllllIl1llIIll!l .,..,.,,.,.........,.. .... j k -.,.....,....f. .......,.i................. llllllllm NOYMIIHI llllllllllll I 5 LT.

When he came to Poly, all the material he had to work with was practically new and unlearned in the art of football. But coach has trained them so thor- oughly that, in another season, they should be able to accomplish much. ALBERT FLYNN Captain Left End This towering giant made his first appearance in athletics three years ago. Runt has the strength of a Missouri mule and the nerve of a Swiss mountain climber. He will be back next year as a member of the club. MAck MCWHIRTER Right End One of the surprises of the season was the record made by Mac at end. Unexperienced though he was, he developed into one of the most accurate and valuable ends in the club. To him belongs the honor of making the first touch- down. l E VERNON POMPELL HURD WREN YVALTER HARRIS Half Back Pump proved in every game, that he was a ster- ling' half-back, speedy, shifty, hard to tackle and a hard tackler. He will be back next year for his second letter. Quarter Hurd was a new man in Poly. He played as quar- ter, was a good passer and fighter. Although he was with the club only one season, his work on the team was very valuable. Center A better man in Poly could not be found for the position of Center. Wal- ter was unable to finish the season as his injuries prevented him from doing so. H He wears his second ' P. l l l JACK MCCLENDON Center This is Jack's second year on the team. He is known by all the members as a hard fighter and a good sport. We are ex- pecting great things from him next year. HARVEY BRADSHAW Full Back Harvey is exceptionally good at line plunging. We shall never forget his mar- velous playing in the Poly- Ranger game. He will be back on the team next year. ROBERT CURRIE Half Back Although this is his first year at football, Robert has proved his worth. He played a steady game and could always be depended on to take care of his po- sition. ,,-.a-1 -.. 55 N ' -sr 71- ff-X -..,.

With such an accomplish- ment in his first year, he should make a guard wor- thy of any team next year. 1 WESLEY LE SAGE End Wesley played a good and steady game all sea- son. His motto was get the man with the ball. He will be back with the club next season. RAYMOND LEE CROUCH Quarter Back Raymond is captain- elect for next year. For two years he has played quarter. For a man of his weight, he is an un- usually good player, and has wonderful ability to direct the maneuvers of the team. gals? , . -,. A -.1..,.--.,JJ Nt .ni . B .. i 3 ef 5 M-'W HARMON SHANKLE JACK DEMPSEY WEBSTER LOBDELL Guard Harmon has the power of a locomotive. When a play came through his side it was almost invariably blocked. Hanner will be back next year and much is ex- pected of him. Tackle Gilbert is all his name implies. He hits his man hard and enjoys seeing him fall. He is a valua- ble man to the club, and he will be back next year for his third letter. V . , Half Back Webster played hard at half back, and he fully earned his first letter. He can be depended on to take care of his position in a crisis. . i l PAUL CURLEE Guard Curlee is a good fight- er. He was usually suc- cessful in tackling his man and never failed to get through the line. He will be back next year for his third P, JEWEL BEASLEY Guard To Jewel belongs the distinction of being the best guard in the club. His motto is fight, as long as there is any fight left. AUBREY ATKINSON Tackle In the two years that he has been with the team, Aubrey has earned the honor of being one of the best club players. He will be among those who are to sign up next Sep- tember. fl .I. ---4 L, CL. ' ' 1: , '- V.. , s ' Poly Poly Poly Poly ............ Poly .......... 1.

N5 The baseball team of Polytechnic High School is stronger this year than it has ever been before. Much more has been accomplished than in former years. The team has progressed rapidly under the capable man- agement of the coach, Mr. F. F. Leissner. We regret that the Parrot must go to press before the season is over and the final scores are made.

SARGENT Coach None but a championship team could be created by such a coach as Sargent She pos- sesses all the qualities essential to a good leader. She has the welfare of the team always at heart, and is a regular pal and a good sport. Poly is indeed fortunate in having her and should appreciate the work she has done in building up the girls' athletics. KATE PHILLIPS Forward Katie was the high score girl of the season. She is al- ways willing to aid in every un- dertaking, doing her bit. N0 matter how hard the task, her smile was present to help over the rough places. She will be with the team next year. FRANCES MAJOR Capt., Forward Majie has been with the team two years. She has done her part toward building up a championship team by means of her wonderful athletic ability. Her sunny smile and sweet dis- position have oftentimes cheer- ed the team when they were losing courage. MARGARET SPEER Jumping Center Margaret held city honors in tennis last year and also won the semi-finals this year. She is a great asset to the basket ball team and will be remembered for her dry wit, humor, and sunny disposition. MARY HELEN LOCKLEAR Sub. Guard Mary Helen has proved her worth to the team. Without her Poly could not have won city honors. She will be back on the team next year. MARY ROACH Sub. Center Mary has made a wonderful substitute. She can hold any position on the team equally well. She will not be back again next year on account of grad- uation. EUNICE CRO MER Running Center To Bobbie belongs the dis- tinction of being one of the best sports on the team. She is a girl who is ever loyal and willing to sacrifice for the good of the team. DEE RE MA PARKER Guard Dee Rema will be greatly missed next year. She has la- bored hard for her team and well deserves the honors that have been given her. NINA TAYLOR Guard The best little pal a team could have. Nina does her part cheerfully and well. She will long be remembered for her sweet disposition. She has done much to help in the upbuilding of her team. r Ju QHUCKLES HE 'l A TRAI ED MI D- Plus Character Is the Equipment That Will Enable Us to Get the Most Out of Life i8282828i828232S98282338SS38 Thrift Is Also a Necessity if You Would Be Successful ' 23383 2 ESTABLISHED 1873 THE FORT WORTH I NATIGNAL BANK MAIN AT FIFTH STREET United States Depositary : S 2 I T0 THE DEAR DEPARTING ' SENIORS Pass on!
