But as the weeks passed and we at Sam Houston became friends, the knowledge that the group attending Big Sam were members of an undertaking which had great promise more than compensated for any broken traditions and lost unity. As the first year progressed and the achievements of our students began to be recognized, the public became aware of a fact that had long since been common knowledge among the members of the Sam Houston student body, the fact that we, in our search for greatness, were beginning to find it. No school is without its pride-whether it be of respected and unbroken traditions or of some other intangible, something in which the student body unanimously takes pride. The student body of Sam Houston, at the beginning of this school year, had not a single tradition to honor. Did this situation place us at the disadvantage of not having anything of which to be proud? Of course not! When our school was given the name Sam Houston High, we were endowed with a rich heritage which far surpasses that of most other schools. Our heritage is of splendid deeds and of great men Whose ideals were noble, yet not out of reach. We can be proud to have our school's name associated with Sam Houston, Stephen Austin, Davey Crockett, and jim Bowie, and others who helped to make Texas what it is today. It is the everlasting spirit of these men and our pride in their deeds which are dominant characteristics in our school's spirit. It is this influence which shapes the overall atti- tude of our active student body. While many other student groups and individuals have been expending time and effort in their fields of endeavor, we, The Cherokee staff, have put in many hours on this annual. We hope that our efforts have resulted in a yearbook which displays quali- ty necessary to distinguish it from others, We have tried to utilize the historical heritage of Texas in presenting to you, the student, this picture of Sam Houston High School in its youth. 1 Memorlam F, 4, ' .,,., t, V i ,V 'graft :V ,fx 1213 , tiillrn- f ,, ,,,, , , , , , When The Cherokee staff chose Texas history as the theme of this annual, little did we know that one of the blackest days in Texas history was yet to take place. On November 22, 1963, just twenty miles from our city, President john Fitzgerald Kennedy was killed by an assassin's bullets. This was a great blow to the people of America and to the world, Our country seemed to be at a complete standstill for days after the tragic event. The student body solemnly listened to the reports on the radio, and when the confirmation of the Presidents death finally came, a hush fell over the school, broken only by the sobs of the girls and the state- ments of disbelief uttered by the boys. We feel a deep sorrow for the loss of this man. He was the symbol of youthfulness and vitality of the people he governed. He seemed close to the people, because he let the people see him as he really was. We saw him as a family man who loved his wife and children. He brought his children and their gay laughter to the White House and allowed America to watch with pride while they grew. He brought the lovely glamour of his wife jackie and gave America a majesty that it had previously lacked. He gave us his time, his ideas, himself. For years to come, we will remember the disbelief we felt when the radio announced with a solemn voice, Our President died shortly after one o'clock today. There will always be in our minds a picture of a smiling young man with so many hopes and high ideals for his country. We could find no better words to ex- press our love than these: In memoriam to john Fitzgerald Ken- nedy, our president. e Proudl Dedieate The 1963-64 Cherokee We, the 1964 CHEROKEE staff, were prompted to this ded- ication by the fact that Sam Houston High School started this year as a young, unheralded school and has already gained recog- nition as a fine high school. We feel that this recognition has been achieved through the work and effort of the entire faculty. Each member of the faculty has contributed his own personal touch to the success of our school. Each has strived to work in harmony with his students, and has treated each of them as an individual. For these reasons we dedicate, with love and respect, the 1964 CHEROKEE to the entire faculty of Sam Houston High School. To The Faculty of am Houston Hi h ,-. X ff '96 :M fu...

Along with being elected junior class president this year, Tom- my was elected cohchairrnan of the newly formed Tarrant County Youth Council. Aside from being a good leader, Tom- my is amusing and is a hard worker. He is always willing to do his share of the work in any project that comes his way. Junior Favorite-Sherry Suggs Sherry Suggs' winning personality, sincerity and devotion, and her willing leadership all contributed to her being elected junior class favorite. Through her participation in various school activities, Sherry's warm smile and friendly attitude have become familiar to her classmates. She was elected sophomore class secretary and was a class favorite run- ner-up last year. This year Sherry supported the Texans through cheerleading and was chosen the 1963 football sweetheart by the team. Sher- ry displays her pleasure for music by ac- tively participating as a member of the Houston Harmonics. S oplaomore Favorite-Jackie Brandon The sophomores have already indicated their liking and respect for jackie Brandon by electing him their class president this year. His ability as a leader plus his meek- ness and friendly manner well qualify him for class favorite. Aside from acting as class president, jackie played on the 'A' football team last fall, and he is a member of the Tarrant County Youth Council. 9 l . ophomore Favorite-Carole Anderso I1 An outstanding personality and 21 COD- ties and her school spirit, her classmates al- ' stant smile are characteristics that led 50 elected Carole Social Chairman Of her Carole Af1d6fS0U,5 C12lSSIU21fCS to Cleft hef class and cheerleader.

All schools in Arlington are taking part in this plan. After the first month of this program Sam Houston was eligible to fly the Green Pennant, indicating that there were no student-caused accidents for Big Sam that month. The program is sponsored by Gen- eral Motors. Accident records are kept by the Ar- lington Police Department, and schools are notified of their eligibility to fly the flag at the end of each month. The program is in effect 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and was begun to make Arling- ton students more safety conscious when on the streets.

Outstanding performances have provided for this group recognition in the school' and in the city. These performances have also won praise and friends for Sam Houston High. The members of the choir take great pride in the ability of the group and the warmth and sinceri- ty with which Mrs. Doreen Young directs them.

The pep rallies gave every stu- dent a chance to show his school spirit in a most exuberant way, After the first pep rally, it seemed impossible that the school spirit could increase any more. Yet, each pep rally exceeded the last in spirit. The cheerleaders worked hard to present the finest pep rallies possible. They gave en- tertaining, humorous skits at the rallies. At each pep rally, the tri-captains of the week gave a pep talk to encourage the team and promote attendance at the games. Highlights of the pep rallies included the presentation of the Victory Flag, the pres- entation of the Football Queen nominees, and the adoption of Long Tall Texan as the school's unofficial song. Without these pep rallies, Sam Houston High's school spirit could not have reached the heights it attained. Beatniks, Sandra Gregg.

The week had been filled with parties of various clubs and organizations. The giant Christmas tree in the student lounge, the halls, and the display cases had been beautifully decorated. Canned foods, clothing, and toys had been col- lected for needy families and displayed under the tree. The sophomores cele- brated the season with a Christmas dance. Finally, the day had come for Christmas vacation to begin, and each homeroom celebrated with a party.

Their smiles changed to looks of bewilderment as the Texans exploded into action in the second half. Halfback jimmy Matthews scored the first touchdown in Sam Houston's history on a ten-yard sweep a- round the end.

Both teams had a slow start. Late in the first quarter, the Texans forced the Apaches to punt from their own 15-yard stripe. The snap was high and three Sam Houston linemen swarmed the punter. Guard Bobby Kolenovsky slapped the ball out of bounds on the 8. Half- back Robert Cox went over on the next play and jimmy Matthews added the extra point. At the half the Texans led, 7-0. After the ball changed hands several times in the second half, Spruce moved it to the Texan five.

Two plays after picking up a Texan fumble, the big halfback Went over for the score. Clements' punt was good and made the score, 7-O. Late in the second quarter, he added another touchdown, but missed the extra point. The Texans left the field at the half, lagging behind, 13-0. Carrollton came back in the third quarter and added another score to its total. The Texans suddenly came alive in the fourth.

Matthews, who scored all 20 points, made the score 7-O in the first two and a half minutes of the game on a pitch-out from quarter- back Neil Kirk and a punt for the extra point. A fumble recovery by Mickey Eddleman set up the Texans' second score. Matthews went over on a 12-yard run. The Texans left the field at halftime, leading 14-O. A 25-yard scamper by Matthews in the third quarter added the final score to the Sam Houston total. The Bears found the Texan defense tough as well, since they were allowed inside the 10 only twice.

These were Alan Craig and Walter Lowe. Both boys had 13 point averages. The A-squad won two of 18 games, and both were district wins.

In their first game, the Texans fought valiantly but were outgunned by Bell's three mem- bers of the top team scorers, including Gary Sibley, the district's top scorer. The final score was in favor of the Raiders, 78-49. The Texans' own members of the top ten district scorers, Alan Craig and Wal- ter Lowe, showed Bell that it takes two teams to make a game, as Sam Houston met the Raiders for the second time.

Teams falling to the Texans were Bell and Carrollton. The B-team sneaked past Bell by one point, 49-48. They defeated the Carrollton Lions by 51-42 in their last dis- trict game. In preseason play the Texans defeated Mansfield twice and Nolan twice. They de- feated Mansfield both times by sizeable margins, 57-39 and 53-20. Nolan posed more of a problem, but the Texans came out on top 47-30. Jim Elza, on the B-team's top scores, was unable to finish the season because of a broken arm. Jim averaged in the double figures for preseason play, but played in only seven games in district play. Glenn Sodd and Harry Hopkins both finished in double figures for the district loop. Glenn, who began to get hot in the fi- nal games of the season, finished with a 12.3 average for district play.

The future of the school will be built on the structure of this his- tory with strong blocks of scholastic endeavor, so- cial highlights, traditions, and a continuing school spirit, so that in future years the towers of educa- tion at Sam Houston High will shine brightly with the light of learning, loyalty, and love for our alma mater. As the Usenior class, in effect, if not in name, the juniors this year assumed the responsibilities of seniors, acting as the school's leaders. These respon- sibilities will be theirs again next year. The juniors, with the aid of their sponsors, worked hard to make this, their first year at Big Sam, a successful one. They eagerly participated in the Junior Play, Big Sam Day, the Christmas party, and other school so- cials. They played football, debated and cheered the school's teams on to greater efforts. They sang in the school choir, and played in the band. They achieved scholastically. They developed good citizenship, school spirit and loyalty. And they are unique in the sense that, instead of having one senior year with its privileges and responsibilities, they will have two such years and probably will be the only class in the history of Sam Houston High School ever to have such an experience. ,V . i n ,,,, y g ,, ,,,. 5' ' X f M s , F52 t, If Q Mugs? l JUNIOR CLASS SPONSORS: standing, Robert Baldwin, Elo Nohavitza, Wallace johnson, Rob- ert Rober, sitting, Mildred Helms, Mary Brown, and Wanda Shelton.

They also started with the knowledge that they would have the honor of being the first class to coinplete all of their three years of high school at Sain Houston. They have contributed greatly to laying the foundations of Sam Houston High and have quickly fallen into the pattern of high school life. The sophomores diligently learned the fight song for Big Sain Day and continually tried to outyell the juniors on the Class Victory Yell. Their class spirit has added greatly to the spirit of the whole school. They have been active in all school activities from cheerleading and football to choir, band, and de- bate. They have set high standards for their next two years at Sam Houston High. SOPHOMORE SPONSORS fLeft to right. standingl Kenneth Pickett. jerry Newell, jerry Griffin. Iames Hyden.

Cknowled ment In every major activity there are always those people who give more time and effort than is required of them. The Cherokee staff would like to give recognition and thanks to a few such deserving people: To Mr. Don Dorsey for his technical advice on pictures and his willing- ness to aid us in our lack of knowledge of photographyg To his crew of photographers who willingly gave their time when only their interest in photography and the yearbook required them to do so, To joe Turner for his extra time and excellent art workg To Mrs. Mildred Russum, who saved,' us when our photograph of John F. Kennedy was lost QWe like her sketch better.jg To Charles Hester, who answered our calls of We're desperate! and re- shot our color transparenciesg To Pendleton Studios who tied our ties and straightened our collars and took our class and faculty picturesg To Mr. Key for his interest in our work and for allowing us to use school time and facilities, And to other faculty members and students for their moral support and encouragement. , muscle -an Av 1...- ,1 1 3 -f mu! .2': i 4 cnllin-.L unnnfih K- I J-5.2, --:.-'....... l 41,311 X ---z- -' a?- 1-tru-w '-9: ul--sr gud' alla , 71.1 1 1'
