ADMINISTRATIGN CLASSES ACTIVITIES ORGANIZATIONS FAVORITES SPORTS F EATURES WHHHMW OLD IRONSIDES A tall, graceful, stalwart ship, the U. S. S. Constitution, matching her crew and officers in fighting spirit and strength, sailed the seas for many years, and held her own in many battles. Captain Issac Hull, 3 man of strong character and personality, commanded the U. S. S. Constitution. Among her many battles on the seas, the swan-like ship defeated the pride of England,s navy, a British thirty-eight gun figate, and outran five British ships. And so, in commemoration of a glorious past, the U. S. S. Constitu- tion is being towed to the parts of the states to revive the memory of history when she sailed like a mighty bird over the waters to defend and protect the people. Eahuuk YX E Rm 7: G. M. SIMS, Superintendent R. A. COLLINS, Principal STUDENT BODY CONGRESS To receive and act upon suggestions from the school administration, members of the faculty, or members of the Student Body; to recommend measures, to recognize work of merit, to be a medium of service to the Student Body, to offer a means of fuller cooperation between the students and faculty, to promote high scholarship and citizenship, and to investi- gate and report on high standards of other similiar institutions is the purpose of the Student Body Congress. Besides its regular governmental business, Congress has succeeded in sponsoring two Seagull subscription drives, sponsoring Bi Centennial con- tests and framing patriotic pictures, amending the constitution and estab- lishing a Hall of Fame for students. Officers of Congress were: First Term Second Term President V . . M. J. Babin Otis Lee Vice President Robert Kavanaugh Lillian Repschleger Secretary Doris Becker Jerry McAfee Parliamentarian Edward Meyer . M. J . Babin BOARD OF TRUSTEES C. E.

BAKER DR. L. C. HEARE J. M. NICKLEBUR TRAFFIC SQUAD With the worthy aim of service in aiding to direct traffic and preserv- ing order, our Safety Patrol has been organized. This organization is of great value to our school, because its forty-seven cops, directed by Miss Anderson and Chiefs Balliette and Sutherlin, have relieved congested con- ditions in our corridors. It is the duty of this squad to cope with every obstacle which may offer interference in efficient transition of the student body from class to class. These problems are brought up for discussion before the club at each weekly meeting. The members contribute their suggestions, after which the club chooses and experiments with the best method. E. M.

THE SENIOR PICNIC thDignified seniors WheneF'riday, April 29, 5 a. m. WhateSenior picnic Destination-Willardis lake Ninety-four of the more or less dignified seniors met at the library Friday morning for the annual thrilling and hair raising expedition to Willardis lake. The truck finally pulled up after Kenneth Price, who was an impatient waiter, had fallen into a puddle of water. Although the weather was misty, it failed to dampen the spirits of the picnicers. Mr. Dunn, accompanied by Miss Wyche, Miss Dean, and the eats, fol- lowed so as to pick up anything and everybody that fell off the truck. Mr. Collins led the way so they could not be left behind. After about two hours of yelling and struggling for elbow room, the truck arrived at Willard,s lake. Everyone went swimming immediately after the arrival. Some went of their own accord and the others went in by request, some of them with their clothes on. Soon there arose the age old cry of When do we eat ? and the bread line formed quickly. After sandwiches, salad, cakes, fruit and all that goes with a picnic lunch had disappeared, Evlyn Long furnished music for dancing. Boat riding Lhen captured the spot light, but the boats were so hard to keep upright that Mr. Collins refused to ride in one. It was not long until 1he figure of Mr. Dunn could be seen poised on the cliff. He issued the Home Sweet Home call. Everyone piled on the truck and the homeward journey was begun. Tired, bu: still able 40 yell and sing, everyone got home safely and gave fifteen lusly shouts for the seniors. Whoeno': f0 dignified seniors When-Friday, April 29, 5 p. m.

PHILHARMONIC CONCERT Port Arthur High School's musical festiviLies were opened this year with a concert presented at Franklin auditorium, 8:00 p. m., December 4, by the Philharmonic orchestra, directed by Mr. Thomas A. White. The program, sufficiently varied to interest music lovers as well as laymen, included several selecLions by the Glee Club, sponsored by Miss Wilma Sprague, instrumental solos, and classical orcheera'ions among which was one of Mr. Whitebs own compositions, Psyche and Zephyrus. 2:3..- .. ,5 w. .;u..;.......;eu.l.r$2;a;:, , .2153; VOD-VILh' The girlsy physical education department presented their fourth uVod- Vil for the benefit of the Red Hussars. The performance was a great success. The proceeds will be used for more equipment in the nRed Hus- sars drum and bugle corps. There were many feature numbers ; of special interest were the boys' tap numbers. DEBATE Resolved, That lobbying as practiced in this country today is detri- mental to the best interests of the people was the question for debate this year. After the final run off, the teams chosen for Port Arthur were Nellie ., Mae Steussy and Mary Rhodes to represent the girls, and Harvey Riviere l, and J erry McAfee to represent the boys. 1 Both teams were responsible for some violent argumentation from the teams of surrounding schools. PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA Since the reorganization of the orchestra two years ago under the direction of Mr. Thomas A. White, at which time it adopted the name of Philharmonic orchestra, it has been an invaluable asset to the curriculum as well as to the activity program of our high school. Its rapid progress is mirrored in the mastery of difficult compositions, such as uPeer Gynt Suite, uRhapsody in Bluef' and one of Mr. Whitehs own compositions, Psyche and Zephyrus. The orchestra has answered every call to service loyally and willingly. It is with pride that we gratefully acknowledge our appreciation of it and its accomplishments and its unfiring director. .4 .4 Hum. a... anuL-Rg , unaw. or gname e. THE TUMBLING TEAM The Tumbling Team was organized by Miss Bessie Cox this year. Much drill and practice was necessary for the successful performance the team displayed at the Vod-Vil, in assembly, and at the college. The cos- tumes used were very attractive. The Tumbling Team is very popular and is organized every year. Much inthusiasm is shown in tumbling. S. B. C. INAUGURATION On Thursday, October 1, 1931 an impressive and memorable inaugural ceremony took place. Mr. Dunn, acting as master of ceremonies, introduced Mr. Collins who addressed the student body; then he administered the oath of office to the vice president, Robert Kavanaugh, and to the new presiddent, M. J. Babin, Jr. President Babin then delivered his inaugural address. Ex-Chief Jerry McAfee gave the oath of office to the new chief of safety patrol, Bern Balliette. With President Babin presiding on February 5, 1932 student body officers for the spring were inaugurated. Mr. Collins administered the oath to Vice President Lillian Repschleger and President Otis Lee. President Lee in his inauguration speech outlined melhods of serving the school. Ex- Chief Fern Balliette administered the oath of office to Waneta Sutherlin, the new chief of safety patrol. uTHE VALIANT The one act tragedy, ttThe Valiant , Port Arthur High School's first entrant in the Interscholastic League District Meet was highly commended, and Rodney Crowder, in the role of the warden Holt, took the honor of the best male character. Rodney made an excellent cold, brusque warden, from under whose exterior crept humanly rympathetic traits. James Hall excellently acted his tragic role of James Dyke, the mystery man, condemned to die at mid- night. Fern Balliette in her realistic role of the condemned manhs sister brought tears to the eyes of the audience. Other characters in the play were Dan, a jailer, Ulysses Rising; and Wilson, an attendant, August Wagner. Egg Mxxz Naavxa SEAGULL STAFF Despite the fact that the 1931-32 Seagull staff was formed unusually late, it has proven its efficiency by the publication of such an attractive annual as is this one. The editor, Owen Atkinson, and the business manager, Claude Barbay, who were elected by the student body at the close of the first semester, selected a very capable staff. It is to Mr. Francis B. Dunn, the faculty sponsor, and to Lee Eagleson, assistant sponsor, that the success of the publication is in large measure ue. ASSLGDITOR A55T.MANAGEK FHOMP$ON BALLIETYG PILOT STAFF A determination to foster and encourage school interest in the pub- lication of The Pilot has been the aim of the newspaper staff during this year. The achievement of state affiliation of the journalism course has been instrumental in aiding The Pilot to attain a much higher degree of success this year than in former years. Twenty-nine students chosen from the journalism classes are active members of the staff and approximately one hundred and forty-five journalism students assist in the publication of the paper. ,z:sy5,,; A921IA , T525 Mun. Alh p; . :; BAND Rivaled by only the best and outclassed by no high school band, the Maroon and Gold band is our premier musical organization The band has, by continuous growth developed into an organization of forty-five proficient musicians. The Eleventh Concert Unique presented this year surpassed all others. It was accorded success by two enthusiastic audiences. During the year the band made trips to Beaumont and Galveston. AL Beaumont, it assisted the Royal Purple Band, the Orange Band, and the Red Hussars in boasting the Royal Purple to victory in their bi-district game with J ohn Reagan. At Galveston it supported its Yellow Jackets. The Jacket Band has an enviable record in State contests. The record follows: first place in 1925, second in 1927, second in 1929,third in 1930, and second in 1931 Under Mr Lantz' s capable direction the band will continue to add that needed splash of color at P. A. H. S ELEVENTH CONCERT UNIQUE The Eleventh Concert Unique presented by the Port Arthur High School band at the Franklin auditorium featured a varied program, divided in two parts. In part one Mr, Lantzys own composition, A Trip to Chicago, was accompanied with fitting effects and dances. Other outstanding numbers were overture, HRaymond, by Thomas, hPrelude in C. Sharp Minor, by Rachmaninoff, and the clarinet trio, hMerriment Polka? by Barnard. Part two of the concert was designed for light amusement only. LaughLer was frequent during the performance of Maestro Poffinoffski and his hick saxaphone band. The Equilibrist and uTen Nights in a Bar Room , .119 last two numbers, were a zestful close to a complete program. V, uiMiEEiiiRHLiiliiiiiEWkiilE ?ESEHEH miamu-aiimmustash THE NATURE STUDY CLUB The Nature Study Club was organized by Miss Lucile Wear for the purpose of widening the students knowledge of nature and encouraging the reading of nature magazines. To accomplish these aims each student is required to give four oral and one written reports during the semester. 3 v The girls have been making picturesque dish gardens by planting different kinds of plants in bowls to represent life scenes. Even miniature animals and peoples are added to make them completely realistic. The officers of the club are: Robert Castille, president; Julius Gans, vice president; Maurine Coleman, secretary; and Hazel Pennington, re- porter. x x T ' x WAGULL kpe hTHE PEP SQUAD Forty-five loyalty girls, the Pep Squad, uniquely costumed in White shirts and white sweaters, bearing the golden Yellow Jackets, create and direct the enthusiasm of the fans at the Port Arthur football games. The organization awards each member a stripe for each year of ser- vice. Miss Gill sponsors the squad. Mary Rhodes acts as captain, and Hazel East. as pilot reporter. TAP DANCING CLUB The newly organized girlsi Tap Dancing club, under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Stevenson, has thirty-four members. Plans for the first semester included the mastery of the fundamentals of tap, such steps as the shuEle, falling off the log, tap, waltz clog, Irish step, time step, triple time step, and buck. When these fundamental steps are mastered, they are combined into two complete dances which serve as tests of members' abilities. An extraordinary feature of the club is that it has no permanent officers, except the pilot reporter, Lillian Rice. Instead leaders are chosen for their ability to execute well a particular step. SENIOR HI-Y CLUB During the fall semester new members were taken in, a charter for the year secured, membership cards distributed, a Negro Minstrel put on in assembly, and the boys, gym and the swimming pool obtained for Tuesday nights. This was done under the leadership of Eldridge Laughlin, president, and Edwin Wukasch, secretary. The main feature of the spring semester was the Older Boys' Cone ference in Beaumont, February 19e20e21 which was well attended by the club. The senior Hi-Y Club aided the Port Arthur Delegation in winning the Honor Banner for 1932. Most of the time in the meetings of the spring semester was spent in adopting a constitution for the club.

While limiting their activities strictly to the field of high school dramatics, the National Thespians are desirous of cooperating in any educational program which ultimately leads to the building of character, leadership, and ideal citizenship among the boys and girls of the secondary schools of America. The National Thespians forbid secrecy, and any attempt made to segregate dramatics for the ben- efit of a few, or to deny any students the opportunity of participating in dramatics, is inmicable to the spirit of the society, and is under no circum- stances excusable or justifiable. AUTO MECHANICS Under the leadership of Mr. Spahr, the Auto Mechanics Club has re- spected the motto, HWe shall and will learn all the parts of the various makes of automobiles. The club elected Russell Dumesnil, a capable mechanic, to serve as its president. ttTHE RED HUSSARS One of the unique girls, organizations in Texas is the ttRed Hussars, the drum and bugle corps which is under the directorship of Miss Elizabeth Smith. Snappy red and white uniforms, military precision, and musical ability have been complimented highly by spectators and sport writers. The strutting and performing of drum majors, Ethel Thompson and tda Mildred Keith complete the spectacular make-up of this loyal and serv- mg corps. It is to these girls, the other members of the corps, its sponsor that we owe our appreciation for one of the most colorful and successful drum and bugle corps in the state. hTHE WHITTLERSh Webster says n1.0 whittleh is to cut aimlessly at a piece of wood with a jackknife, but Mr. Ellis says that his whittlers have a definite aim, hto learn how to construct projects of wood, and to become acquainted with the different kinds of wood.

This was his fourth and last year after serving two previous years as a letterman. With his lettering three out cf the four years, his receiving honorable mention on the all- district team, and his captaincy this year, uScotty leaves be- hind him a record worth while WILLIE BROWN One of the mainstays in the Jacket line this season was this tackle. HScorch has lettered three years and has been a harde worker ever since he broke in at that memorable Breckenridge game in 1929. Willie showed the fans that it does not take a big man to piay tackle. LOYD MYERS This halfback was the Jackets triple tnreat man this season. His ability to pass and punt ranks among the best in the district, and as for running, Loy covered much graund. uRed leaves us this year after serving three years as a letterman. MATTHEW McKNIGHT Sh'fted from center last year to tackle this year uMac sh owed mean ability. Desp1te continuous shoulder injuries he turned in a splendid game. Mac' 5 abil- ity to stop Viverette in the Beaumont game was shown many times; he will be on the squad next year. 4w: EMMET BONE This diminutive tackle serving his second and last year as a letterman turned in a splendid performance. For what Emmet lack ked in size he made up in fight. His performance in the Beaumont game this year will very likely be remembered TEDDY DORSEY uTed was the Jacket' 5 second triple threat man. For a small fellow he carried the ball with more speed and drive than anyone on the team. This was Ted's last year. He lettered twice in two years. ULYSSES RISING Playing center on the Jacket team, Sheik was a wander on the defense and upoison to a team using an aerial attack. This was Sheikis third year on the squad, lettering twice out of the three times.

He was forced to the bench early in the season because of an injury, but in the games he played he shown brilliantly. DON BLANTON Don has played with the Jackets for three years, and throughout his service he has played brilliantly. He was one of the best fighting tackles 0n the team. 'ihis was Don's last year as a member of the team. FRANK BORDONARO Frank held down the wing position for the Jackets. He was a Hbear on the de- fense and showed mean ability to grab passes. A pass any where near him was a sure catch. This was uTonys second year, and he will return next year. FRANK FERRELL In his earlier trial for the team Frank Iound himself handicapped by lack cf weight but two years later, he came back to be one of the best little quarterbacks 0n the team. Frank is well remembered for his brilliant playing in the Goose Creek game. RAYFORD PEACOCK Rayford has been one of the hardest working guards on the J acket squad dur- ing his four years of playing. His fight- ing ability and power on the Jacket line has shown in many of our games.Rayford leaves us this year after lettering in '31. FRED HAWSEY Fred had a misfortune in the Beaumont game Where he received a dislocated knee. His playing before his injury was splendid. He was one of the best fighting full-backs that the Jackets had on the field. He still has another year of Jacket service after serving two years. LEON DORSEY Playing his last year, hHuck was one of the best defense guards and a neat blocker. He was a valuable man to have on the line. Staving off injuries, Huck played consistently throughout the year. JACK ELKINS The old injury has haunted Jack for the past two years. He suffered a sprained ankle last year, and early this year he received a broken collar-bone. This was his second year on the squad. His ability to snag passes has been outstanding. Jack played end; NICK NORRIS Nick is one of those unsung heroes who devote their time to aiding their team mates progress by blocking. Nick seldom carried the ball; he cleared the way for the ball carriers. He has two more years ROSCOE CLAYTON iiTallboy has been on the squad for two years, and this year he succeeded 1n hold- ing down a wing position the majority of the time. He still has another year of service. He specialized in blocking and receiving passes. HEN RY BELLANGER Henry proved to be the Jackets' main ground gainer and touchdown ace. He was the leading scorer this season and will be back with us for two more years. His p.aying in the Polytechnic game w.11 be long remembered. He developed rapid 1y as a quarterback and pass receiwr. WILLIS HONEYCUTT 'lhis was MHoneys first year of foot- ball for the Jackets. Though nand capped by an injury received early in the sea- ssn, Willis turned in some line gam s as a hard driving full- back FOREST KETKERSIDE Forest made a very capable football manager. His winning personality made him many friends. The staff wishes to express its appreciation for the splendid service he has rendered 1 Lg; 1 '1 w.s ms 1 WEARERS 0F PA FOOTBALL WYBLE '33 J.

The lettermen this year, are Willie Brown, Captain; Patrick Patin, Vernon Bodin, Warren Wyble, Woodrow Southerland, Harold Williams, Patrick Riley, Roscoe Clayton, and Jack Elkins; the latter four will return for the 1932 season. A close check of the season shows that the points ran high with Riley and Woodrow Southerland being high point men. ttTallboy Clayton took care of center position, while ttScorch Brown and ttRed Williams were regular guards. Coaches Dennis and Forwald succeeded in developing a well balanced cage club whose capability was displayed in the many hard fought games of the season. WILLIE BROWN Our three year letterman, guard and cap- tain of the Jackets turned in another great season. He was one of the flashiest guards on this year's team. We will be sorry to lose him this year. WARREN WYBLE Wyble has just completed his third am' last year on the Jacket basketball machine. He has proved himself a worthy player in the last three years. PATRICK RILEY Pat turned in a splendid season. In his many games, he showed a rare ability in handling the ball, with his accurate shmting and passing. WOODROW SOUTHERLAND This was uSuds second year on the squad He held dawn his position like a veteran. His accurate shooting gave the Jackets many points.

He played brilliantly throughout the sea- son at forward. He will be back again next. year. BERNARD KETCHERSIDE Bernard showed rare ability as a man- ager. The success of the basketball team was largely due to his capable leadership. E uaah AXX JACKET DIAMOND SQUAD The varsity nine, piloted by Coach Dennis and captained by Otis Lee, has proved our right to enter organized baseball. In 1931, the first time since 1927, the Jackets put out a team which went through the season without losing a game. No letters were awarded then, however, this year baseball was made a major sport and the varsity received its letters. For the first time in two years, the maroon and gold trackmen have won the district meet in an uphill battle with the Royal Purple. The trackmen who placed in track meet are as follows: Loyd Myers, who set a record in the preliminaries of the 1931 meet, when he turned in a record time in the high hurdles. Owen Atkinson, last year's track captain, who now holds district record for high hurdles William Gray, who took first place in the 220 and 100 yard dash, placed second in the 100 and third in 220 in the district this year. Russell English, who upset the dope to take the 220 yard dash. Oswald Dionne, who 'ied for first place in the broad jump. A. V. Corley, who in his first year made a fast dashman. Wade Blanchard, who ran the mile relay which placed in the district. LOYD MYERS Captain Red is a three year football letterman also.

He set a record in the pre iminaries of the 1931 meet when he turned' in record time in the high hurdles CLYDE VILLEMEZ Villemez served his second year with the Jacket trackmen as one of the best milers in the state. Clyde will be lost to the team next season. RUSSEL ENGLISH Russel surpr1 sed everyone when he upset 1e dope to take the 220 dash at the 11 trict He came to the fore in the event in the last few yards. OSWALD DIONNE Os' tied for first place in the broad jump with Guidroz in the district meet. He has participated in the broad jump, 440 relay and the mile relay. This is his second year on the track squad. MELVIN GUIDROZ Melvin turned in his best broad jump of the season at the district meet when he leaped 20 feet, 6 inches. He went out for the 880 run at the first of the season but later became a capable broad jumper. WADE BLANCHARD Although Wade did not place in the dis- trict, he ran in the mile relay team which did place. Fish is known as a hard worker on the track team. WILLIAM GRAY HBill came into his own in the Lake Charles meet when he took first in the 7120 and the 100. He placed second in the 100 and third in the 220 in the district this year.

By defeating their rivals, Miss Benzws home room was declared the sophomore home room champions. Those composing the team were Vaughn, Higgs, Townsend, Young, Schmitz, and Meyers. SOCCER Who can tell but that soccer will compete with football in the near future? This year a demonstration game was played during the half at a football game, and it was declared to be suprisingly interesting. To see the gym girls go out for this sport is a treat. It must be fascinating. Participants in the varsity game between the maroons and golds must be girls who have been out to practice at least five times. The maroons who are pictured here are the winners of the season, and they are to be con- gratulated, because they had some competition. VOLLEY BALL This year, the girls took much more interest in volley ball than they have previously. Eliminations were made in practice periods after school. A maroon and a gold team were chosen, and excellent players participated on both teams. A group composed of both maroon and gold teams was chosen to com- pete in chartered games in Beaumont. This was the first year the volley ball team had played any outside games, and we were very proud, for Port Arlhur won the two games played with the neighboring city. GIRLS SCHOOL LETTER In order to arouse more interest in Physical Education work, the girlsh letter club was organized three years ago. The one qualification for its members is that every girl must have her letter. To get the letter, students must pass 1000 points which are checked in booklets provided for each girl. The points cannot be gotten at random, but instead a certain number must be earned in each activity. i 1 0 SWIMMING All the girls who had not taken swimming before were urged to partic- ipate this year. It proved to be a very successful sport in which everyone can learn at least the fundamentals. Even the person who does not know how to swim at the beginning of a six weeks term is able to gain some points on the easy strokes and dives. SENIOR HOME ROOM CHAMPXONS One of the most interesting championship contests was between the low and high senior home rooms. By winning 1he first two games of a three game series, the high senior home men , sponsored by Mr. Dunn and Miss Dean, was declared senior champion.

Wyble, Levy, Buttrill, DeJohn, Ellis. and Bergeron. FRESHMAN HOME ROOM CHAMPIONS There were more competition among the freshman classes than any other class.
