John Hugghins: This 6 foot 2 inch, 1G3 pound end was placed on every All District team, and was Bryan's strongest candidate for All-State honors, as he yielded very few yards defensively, and was among the top scorers of the district offensively. Clifford Kelley: Six foot one and one half inches tall, and weigh- ing 160 pounds, this end really showed the old fight in stopping many yards around his post. J; raes Killer Griffin: The only three year letterman on the team, this 5 foot 11 inch 1C5 pound back, was a truly great blocker in spite of the injury to his knee, and was co-captain of this year's team. Curtis Turner: Standing 5 foot 10 inches tall, this blocking back, although the lightest man r n the team, weighing only 130 pounds, paved the way for many yards and oayed no attention to the size of his opposition, he was also co-captain of this year's squad. Janes Jackson: This 6 foot 1 inch ICO pound back was placed on practically every All-Dis- trict team. and ras proclaimed the best power back in the dis- trict in scoring honors, and was truly Bryan's most valuable man. Stuart Bubba Barron: This 5 foot 11 inch tackle, although out with injuries along the first of the season, played his post as only the best can do, and turned out to be one of the most valu- able men on the team. Morris Smith: 5 foot 10 inches tall and weighing 165 pounds, this substitute guard played good ball the whole year, and proved to be a guard of the highest cal iber. Bob Williamson: Although he play- ed very little, this 6 foot 1 inch one year letterman, was con- sidered by his term mates as a tackle of the very best. Thomas Hale: This 6 foot 1 inch 180 pound tackle saw very much service in substituting for Barron, and proved himself very capable of the job. Karl Merrel: This 5 foot 11 inch 155 pound back was placed on every All-District team, and was one of the most outstanding passers in the state due to the fact that he seldom missed his mark. Glenn (Bottle) Terry: Standing 5 feet 8 1 2 inches tall and weigh- ing 150 pounds, this guard was said by his team-mates to be the best man on the team at leading interference and was placed on the second team of several All- District selections. Bottle will be back next season, and should make a great guard. Johnny Lampo: This boy had one of the most responsible Jobs of all in keeping the equipment straight, which is more of a Job than most people think. Johnny was a truly great manager, loved and respected by the whole team. Bill Zak: This 6 foot 1 inch 172 pound tackle was placed on the string of several All-District teams, along with Terry, and really deserved it as he was a tackle of the very best. ' ,0,1 George Uachos: This 5 foot 10 inch 155 pound two year letterman after receiving an injury to his arm in spring training, was shifted from his backfield post to guard and showed that he was Just as capable of playing one place as he was another. Edwin (Red) Cloud: With his 6 feet 2 inches tipping the scale at 175 pounds this center was placed on several All-District squads, and was said by most sports critics to be the best defensive center in the district as well as an out- standing star offensively. Bart Haltom: This 5 foot 10 inch 157 pound substitute really turned in some splendid football in his outstanding passing and punting.

From the time the Broncs trampled the Brenham Cubs in the first game, until they were defeated in the final game, by the Cleburne Yellow-Jackets, they never let their supporters down. Finishing in third place with a 500% average, the Broncos first lost a 2-0 heartbreaker to the Waxahachie Indians; then playing Waco to a scoreless tie, a district meeting was necessary to determine the winner. The next loss came in the final game when the Cleburne Yellow-Jackets nosed them out. This season the Bryanites piled up 110 points to their opponents 31, and did not have a touchdown scored against them in district competition until the next to last game when Cannon, of Hillsboro, completed a pass and raced across the goal-line for the initial talley against the Broncos in their District 10-AA campaign. With only seven lettermen returning, Bryan fans had little hope for the Broncs at the first of the season. However this light but spirited team, although out- weighed in every game, came through with flying colors to lose only three games, with one of these being a scoreless tie, and also to lead the teams into the most scrambled chase for district honors, in the history of the district. The 1941 basketball season also was very successful for the Broncos, losing only five games for the whole season. The Bronco cagers succeeded in winning the District 17 title for the third straight time. The Broncs lost only four games in the newly formed Central Texas League, composed of Waco, Temple, Corsicana, Cleburne and Bryan, in finishing in second place; and two of these losses were to the undefeated champions, the Waco Tigers; the other loss for the Broncs was in the Regional 5 meet at Huntsville, when they were defeated by the Addicks Steers. Although the Bryanites did not go very far in the Interscholastic League playoffs, Hugghins, Conrad, and Franks were all placed on the All-District 17 team, which is something for any school to be proud of. Qualities of suc- cess are inborn and cultivated They denote de - termination, sacrifice,ability, purpose,ond persistence.Suc- cess is the height of otfainmen t, and throughout countless ages its possession has created the heroes andic eols of mankind.lhe ones chos en for this section are those whom you think wi i best re- place these,our ad- vertisers.
