A I 3 2, 1 ,X ZLL.- The Past ls Prologue The past is a memory, a beginning, an introduction, a lesson, a future- a Prologue. ln a broad sense, the world in which we are living is in many aspects the product, the pupil, and the partner of its past. Thus, the present is but the shape broken from the cast which was molded by an experienced and learned past. The past shapes the future: within its folds is the evolving structure of civilization, today and tomorrow. Within is the framework for the pioneering spirit which is oneof the great American heritages belonging to each who can find within it a treasured collection of memories I and an introduction to the very future he so eagerly anticipates. Within this book are your memories- memories built solidly upon a past Wrought by that pioneering spirit, a past which as an introduction contrarily becomes the incessant beginning of the future as each moment or realization presents new, challenging, ever-changing horizons. Here then is 5 part of your past holding the experiences which teach and guide you to the goals before you-as you resolutely pioneer your individual future. x X 5, ww is ,y V 5 ! . Y' s I .

The admirable Raven, revered by the Indians as one too directly descended from the Great Spirit to be approached with familiarity, yet so greatly beloved by them that he was always befriended as their father. The shrewd general, envied by many of his political contemporaries because of his tremendous popularity and the esteem which he earned as the only man who through his own personal magnetism was capable of keeping the army of Texas in dominance and thus through their compliant allegiance achieve the independence. The honorable President, endowed with those lofty and noble qualities of statesmanship which strengthened his determination to lay a deep, strong foundation for the Texas Republic and then sagaciously to guide it to its annexation. The resolute Governor, destined as a national patriot to oppose in defiance of popular sentiment the futile secession and consequently to be deposed from the governorship because he refused to preside over what he believed to be the ruination of his beloved Texas. The manly man, . acknowledged as one whose flaming spirit and dauntless courage characterize the pioneering foundation of the entire nation and whose past was prologue to our great American heritage, to this man among men-SAM 'HOUSTON- humbly and proudly we dedicate the 1960 CoLonNeh.

Here is the feeling, the spirit of greatness, for it is here that one destined for fame had his rendezvous with greatness, here that a historic decisive battle gave birth to a new nation and brought fame to General Sam Houston, then commander of the Texas army and later the first president of the Republic of Texas, Governor of the State of Texas, and U. S. Senator from Texas. ' f On his forty-third birthday, March 2, 1836, General Houston was one of the rugged pioneers, dauntless in spirit and unmatched in determination to carve from a wilderness a land of security, who made a declaration for lndependence from oppression and for freedom to make secure their homclands and their human dignity. Shortly thereafter, on the afternoon of April 21, 1836, by the Battle of San Jacinto, Texas gained independenceg -the world gaine a proved champion of freedom-Same Houston. x Four months after the Battle of San Jacinto, on August 29, two brothers-J. K. and H. C. Allen-founded' a little town on the same bayou, just 22 miles inland from the battleground where history was made, from whence cherished dreams came true. From thathistory, those dreams, from the pioneering spirit of the Allen brothers has spread the teeming, throbbing metropolis of Houston. From a few hundred people in the little town that honored General Hous- ton by giving it his name, there emanated always the same resolute spirit which has built a city encompassing a S million inhabitants and affording a million opportunities for individualism and perpetuation of the legacy of such a Stephen F. Austin who said, My object is to build for the present as well as for the future. When the town of Houston had outgrown its bayou. the people udared to dig a ditch and bring the sea to its doors. From the sea, across a bald prairie. past the famous scene of the fight for freedom and independence, wrought from the languorous. winding Buffalo Bayou, another great dream became a ship channel 50 miles inland, a great watt-rwav ending at the Port of Houston and a most significant event in the city's growth. Today operation at the port lr a two-billion dollar a yeat business. gave thought, however, to education stillctl. own stronghold of greatness. - A- The early townspeople in Houston became quite busy clearing the way for the town to grow and thrive.

This November date marked the first appear- ance of a S-am Houston drill team since the dis- continuance of the Widely acclaimed Black, Bat- talion. This group, named to honor former director of Houston High Schools-F. M. Black, 'built a high standard for the Houstonians to uphold and gave them a wealth of tradition to follow. Under the direction of their founder, Miss Verner Benton, the Battalion received such honors as pe-rforming for an international broadcast, giving a review be- fore Governor Ross Sterling and 10,000 spectators, being featured in an article in one of the World's largest musical magazines, making a Paramount and Fox newsreel, and participating in out of city and out 'of state events as outstanding as the Woirldls Fair at Chicago and the Centennial celebra- tio-n at Shreveport.

Determined to under- take more than just drilling, the ambitious Houston ettes have edited since- 1955 the Sam Houston Stu- dent Directory, using the money from the sale of the directories and from the annual magazine drive to help pay for uniforms and instruments. Too, they answer the call for assistance in drives and funds which are of community interest, one of which is the annual Poppy Sale sponsored by the American Legion in behalf of the Veterans' Ad- ministration. All Houstonettes eagerly await the Mother and Daughter Banquet given in the fall to honor the Houstonette mothers and the Seniors. At this ban- quet sweaters are presented to the girls who have demonstrated outstanding service to the corps. One of the major social eve-nts for the school is the Houstonette Stardust Ball, which is he-ld each spring. The senior whose personal traits and quali- ties exemplify tho-se of an ideal Houstonette is crowned Houstonette Honey at this gala affair. lst Lieutenant Maj orettes DIANA DWYER lley all lVlajorettes Ruth Lozano, Judy Gregg, Diana Dwyer, Glenda Hed e Nlary Salmeron Billie Carlile Drum and Bugle A w I F i I Kathryn Castoria, Sally Cole, Judy Cyree, Sharon Evans, f Bettie Gaines, Charlotte Gamble, Judy George, Barbara Gerland, Nancy Grassel, Jo Carol Graves, Carol Ham, f i Linda Hamilton, Mary Hard, Lois Faye Harris, Nancy 2 Hunt, Imogene .lo-nes, Betty Carole Lingle, Phyllis Knight, ' f Lynetta Mooney, Georgia.

Further- more, these versatile musicians have won even more ac- claim as a concert group, giving very creditable perform- ances for the N.D.C.C. reviews and school-community pro- grams, as well as during their participation in area musical festivals. One of the largest undertakings for the band is the great number of concerts they give at nearby elementary and junior high schools. These concerts are given to en- courage interest and participation in the instrumental music program, and the good results of the project are shown each year as the number of interested, talented musicians increase the membership of the Sam Houston High School Band!

Margie Lee, Capt. Victor Thomson, Lt. Barba.ra,.Buckner. The N.D.C.C. at Sam Houston is a military organization whose purpose is more than military in extent. When a Cadet graduates from the Corps, he takes with him not only an understanding of military science and procedure, but also a deep patriotism and love of country-qualities which are necessary to the develop- ment of an outstanding citizen. Of invaluable assistance to the school, the Corps is given such responsibilities as keeping the halls clear in the morning, guarding the parking lot during special activities held at' night, and directing visitors. Quring football season, the cadets aid the Houstonettes by guarding their instruments, serving them cokes after the half time, and providing an honor guard for special Houstonette drills. Constant incentive each year to the hardworking cadets is the Distinguished Unit Trophy, which is award- ed to the high school corps attaining the highest degree of proficiency in drill team meets, rifle matches, Federal inspections, and Superior Instructor classes.

They have administrative functions, including typing, filing and maintenance of records and orders, social functions, including being hostesses during inspections. They attend ,all classes and are prepared to instruct in many subjects. Wanda Phillips brought honor to the entire school this year by being given the Superior Instruc- tor Award. This award is one of the hardest to earn and is obtained only after a sponsor has been observed by a representative from the United States Army while she is conducting a class and is found to have met the rigid and comprehensive qualifications for instruction ac- cording to Fort Benning standards. As reserve army personnel, Capt. Ferrin and Sgt. Edmiston are well qualified to present to 'the cadets the military science courses which are essential to N.D.C.C. training.

Aegis was selected as the name because it appeared on the shield of I Minerva, patron saint of the class of 1890. At firstvthe Aegis was printed as a magazine, with a special issue containing pictures of the candidates for gradua- tion. When the old Sam Houston closed in 1952, the Aegis was discontinued. Roberta Horn, Associate Editor, delivers as- signments to the staff. l42 An important step in publication of the paper is planning and setting up the dummy.

Editor JOHN SHOCKEY The purpose of this book is to represent every phase of high school life, that it may prove a Source of enjoyment to all, and serve as an ever- lasting memory of high school days. The CoLon- Neh staff has endeavored to fulfill the highest as- pirations of the purpose set forth by the first yearbook staff in 1923. In obtaining the quality necessary to bring to the student an accurate sampling of his high school Cxperiences, the yearbook has undergone a series of changes. Editor CHARLES JACKSON Editor JUDY SHELLEY Associate Editor Raymond Schaub and Layout Editors Marilyn McKown and Beverly Lott plan the well-balanced layouts so necessary to the pleasing appearance of any yearbook. ' Glenda Hedges, Dale Thompson, and John Hitchock prepare news, feature, and editorial script to unify the maze of pictures and layouts. I46 Before 1923, the yearbook was published as a special graduation issue of the Aegis. It contained pictures of the candidates for graduation and short verses including their achievements and ambitions. ln order to make 'possible increased coveragetof student life, the yearbook and Aegis became separate publications, and in 1923 the first issue of the Cosmos appeared-. The yellow blossom of the flower symbolizes 'ggetting together in good orderf' This was the primary job of the staff, for it was their duty to record all ofthe activities in which the students participated during the year and then organize them in an attractive, orderly manner to form a uyearbookf' l i l I . r f Photographer Tommy Sellers works closely with Sports Editors Judy Slaughter and Melvin Moy to provide enicitmg shots of Tigers in action. Melvyn, too, is often seen with camera in hand as he makes the rounds of seasonal sports events With E e e Yfafl a DSW 'iles il' e same 0 bring Ialue wh ries ofl - 11 l Alphabetizing, job stamping, and the editing of senior-class Writeups head the list of headaches that are overcome by Class Editors Carolyn Stanley, Delores Templet, and Judy Dunson. With the opening of the Sam Houston, the yearbook received a new name as well as a new home. Except for the change in titles, the CoLonNeh has remained much the same as its predecessor. lts goal is still to bring to the student a book of lasting value which will contain the priceless mem- ories of high school life. Joan Pierce and Bill Hayes carefully file subscription receipts to assure Q orderly delivery of the yearbook. Business Manager Carolyn Navarro and Sponsor Mrs. Sylvelin.Manning keep careful account of CoLonNeh finances and estimate possible yearbook expenses forthe year. At mid-term Diana Dwyer, Bobbe Gentry, and Carol Cooper are wel- come additions to the staff. THE PEECH, A Reflectedl Jim Middleton, Senior debate student, is open ,to cross-examination as he pre- pares for a coming tournament. , Speech students view the annual debate topic with eager anticipa- tion. l485' Courses in the Speech Department are elective and are designed to give the many students enrolled in these subjects a solid background in the varied aspects of associating and communicating with people. After learn- ing the fundamentals of speech, the students learn and become proficient in parliamentary procedure, public speaking, extemporaneous and after- dinner speaking, declamation, poetry reading, or they choose to associate themselves with drama, learning the history and background of dramatic arts, staging, directing, pantomime, make-up, as Well as the techniques of acting. Another vital aspect of the speech arts which may be selected is debate. The debaters find that the hours of research done and the prepara- tion of briefs and statements of cases, as well as the actual debating, are of intrinsic value to them. In addition to the programs, plays, morning devotionals and announce- ments, which are the responsibility of the speech classes, the speech activities are highlighted by the speech tournaments in which the out- standing students participate, and the lnterscholastic League contest. ln fact, the vast success of this department can be measured somewhat by the numerous trophies on display in the front hall.

I will trust in my God and in the United States of America. fAdapted from The Code of Conduct for members of the Armed Forcesj The purpose of the Patriotism Society, to instill the qualities of true Americanism in each Sam Houston student, is one of the most praiseworthy goals ever attempted by any club. Sam Houstonites have quickly realized the importance of such an crganization, the first of its kind in the city. Their enthusiasm and earnest endeavor resulted in the opening of similar clubs throughout I-Iouston. The ac- tivities of the Society have even sparked the interest of the Christian Anti-Communism Crusade which has been instrumental in pro- viding speakers, recordings, and films which are utilized in teaching young people of the devastating effects of Communism on the American way of life. - Officers President Bill I-Iayes Vice President Bob Rider Secretary Michael LaValle Treasurer Sue Keen Parliamentarian LaDon White Chaplain Pat Mitchell Reporter Melvin Moy Sponsor Mr. Byron Parker i I will never forget that I am an American citizen . . . l78 IOT tn ,tm . ,mmfggg-i F eo t the Ugg :olldqct for sm Socieili to tneric US of itmted by any uc1f1YrealiZed lffllllation, the Hr enthusiasm Hnism in the most n the opening llSi0l1.

V The Spanish Club, through which students may advance their understanding of the language, sponsors participation in activities such as pro- grams, group singing of Spanish songs, and ban- quets held at Spanish restaurants. The members are quite enthusiastic about their club, however, no meeting holds interest to compare with the 'cSpanish Christmas party, at which time they experience south-of-the-border traditions-breaking the pinata and singing Spanish carols. Marilyn Vandel, Lynda Vance, Mrs. Haley, and Becky Johnson examine some of the curious ar- tifacts of our neighbors to the South. 1 Sponsor MRS.

STAGE CRAFT Working in close cooperation Wlth the drama department, the Stagecraft Club performs the tedious job of preparing the set and furnishing props for plays and programs conducted by various student groups The club offers 1tS services to all groups who are interested in performing a stage production. Distance offers no obstacle, for the Stagecraft Club will travel to great extents in order to offer their assistance. Such was the case last year when some of the club members accompanied the drama department to the State Drama Tournament and placed a member on the All-Tournament Stagecraft crew. Although their tasks required hours of long and hard work, their efforts are duly rewarded as the curtain comes down on a play Well done. This little lamb didnlt follow Mary to school, he's part of the animated props which the Stagecraft Club provided for the lovely Christmas program. 1 .

' N , At the beginning of the fall semester, each homeroom elects a president, and these presidents, who are represen- tative, dependable students, constitute the membership of the Student Council. Through the services of the council, 1 the members strive to develop high ideals of personal con- i duct and to encourage the practice of good citizenship i through intelligent participation in school affairs, good scholarship, creation of better school spirit and by pro- viding a training ground for both leaders and followers. This year the Student Council sponsored the project of selling the poll tax receipts and acting as election judges. Also, the council participated in the regional convention, E r I Q and in December sent Judy Johnson and- Bob Rider to the T conclave held at Spring Branch. i The group of Student Council .members who were selected to be election judges had quite a feat to perform. Here A they are receiving instruction in operation of the voting machines from Mr. Philip Thompson, who so graciously arranged for the use of the machines. In turn the girls had to teach the voters and keep poll tax receipts straight. After the last vote was cast, each judge left the building exclaiming '4What a day. 1 UDENTJ coo CIL homeroom rg ICPTCSCH' obership of the council, :1'SOIl3l Con' CitizenSh1P fairs, good nfl by pw' , followers' project of riorl in I 3f1i10Us COIIV h lidef to t 6 dges.

Trainers JACK DOSS BILL HARGROVWE JIMMY HICKS Managers DONALD WADSWORTH JOHN PFEFFER Overturf is leading the official in the far turn by two lengths, 1 Getting off to a fine start this season, the Tiger football team Won three of its first four games. As the season gained momentum, it became evident that the team was competing in one of the toughest city races there has ever been. Upsets occurred left and right and the Sam Houston eleven, un- fortunately, was the upset on several occasions. The defeats which the team suffered came largely as the result of the opponents' ability to capitalize on S.H. miscues, while the Tigers Were less fortunate in their capital gains. Injury plagued, the squad was weakened to three-quarters of its strength as district play began. Despite the fact that the Tigers must Wait another year for a title bid, the student body is proud of its team and continues to support it. Their fine sportsmanlike conduct, which has Won the Lions Club Sportsmanship Award several times inthe past, is indeed indicative of the undaunted Sam Houston spirit and the appreciation for the hard-Working team.

Putting together a yearbook is impossible with- out the help and cooperation of many people. Always we are heartened-our work is made easier -by the great number of people so willing to extend their hands to help and to cooperate. Humbly and gratefully we express our apprecia- tion to the administration and the faculty, to the wonderful student body. We are indebted to our photographer, Mr. Harold Bishop, and to Taylor Publishing Company, and very muchly so to Miss Joyce Hayward and her staff at KVHOU-TV Station for selecting the students to go in the most hand- some and most beautiful section. The Chamber of Commerce, especially Mrs. Ophelia Moran, helped us to find pictures for our division pages, as did the Sam Houston Museum of History, Sam Houston State Teachers' College, the Houston Post, and the Alley Theater. Miss Jeannine Blankenship did the beautiful art work, of which we are so proud. The News Service at the University of Houston supplied us with valuable historical information. We are indeed proud to acknowledge such splendid people. ' The CoLonNeh Staff THE END ible un. P00ple.
