ADOLPH POLLAK, the right end, was one of the two thl'eeeyeai' Ietter-men and was one of the two Captains LOUIS HUFFMAN being shifted from end to tackle showed that he would do his best anywhere and was always the first under the punts. CASEY DRYK hurt his leg early in the season and then came back and through his stellar performe ance proved to be a tackle that will long be remembered. ROY GOAD came into his own this yeaix His performance was sterling A. J. MERCER was the line men's key-man from his center position and though playing most of the season with a bad leg was head and shoulders above the other centers of the district, CHESTER CASEY for his size could do more than anyone else on the club and was a demon on both offense and defense Page Fitt3'-five JOE SKELTON was one of the hardest playing and most consistent players on the team, being the lines greatest spark-plug; he was a unanimous selection for all-district end. HERBERY McKINLEY improved greatly over the year before and after hard work was a capable tackle. RAY GOAD was an excellent guard, one of the best pver to play on the Wildcat teams, but a knee ins jury early in the season prevented him from playing further. DALE WEAVER was a big boy who did his best under fire WENDELL WILLIAMS was a fast slipping boy who was hard to stop. He was a steady worker and did his share in the backfieldl EMORY ROPER was an excellent wingback, one of the heaviest men on the club, who proved to be a capable maul BOB PASSONS played his first year at end in a truly great way and should be a real star in due time OTIS POOL was the fastest boy on the squad and will be expected to be a real climax runner next year. JUNE HOLCOMB, though small, was a very alert guard and will be one of the greatest before he leaves. ERWIN BOREN was a pass snatching end who played hard to earn his letter.

Page Fiftyvsuvvn MIKE DUNCAN was a fine center with all the fire in the world and could always be relied on to carry on in a magnificent style. MAITLAND AYCOCK was always a scrapper and hard worker, a very valuable man to have on the squad, HAROLD NAIL has just come over from junior high, but he is expected to be a real tackle by 1940. CHARLES CAUGHLIN was inexperienced and this hurt his clinics to letter; but he had the old fight and spiriL LOVE LEWIS was a real blocker on offense, but had too much competition to letter, HUB SPEER was a valuable man in the reserves, and has a very bright future as a Wildcat. GENE McCLUNG was a good back and a fine passer. He had too much competition to letter. CHARLES GOODE was inexperienced, but a hard worker, and is due to be a good tackle in 1939.

There is, however, one other pleasant task the staff Wishes to assume: that of expressing to you the heartiest of thanks for the many favors and courtesies shown the class the past year. Especially are we grateful for the Senior banquet, for it represented to us one of the outstanding activities of the year. In behalf of the entire class let the staff give you a world of thanks and wish you lots of good health and happiness. The Staff To Every Contestant: A word of thanks and commendation to each and every one of you for the effort spent in representing our school the past year. Whether on the field of athletic activity, in the debate room, 01' on the contest stage, the Very fact you did your best merits more thanks than we can exprese To you belongs the honor of making our school successful and recognized, Thanks again, To the Annual Staff: You are entirely apart from us since you received your place by election and the fun staff did not. For that reason this staff feels it owes to you a word or two of praise for the splendid annual you have published. You and the faculty sponsor should feel well repaid for your work by this splendid book.

Penney STRASBURGER'S ample Euninr Glnllege The TEMPLE JUNIOR COLLEGE has become a popular and well established institution. During the past year it has experienced a splendid enrollment. It is recognized both by the State Department of Education and by the Association of Texas Colleges as a junior college of the First Class without condition or reservation. The graduates of the College may enter any of our senior colleges with full junior standing. Some of the advantages offered by the TEMPLE JUNIOR COLLEGE are: The members of the faculty are scholarly and experienced and are prepared to render service of the highest order in the class room. The classes are relatively small, which condition makes individual instruction and personal attention possible. All students are taught by the heads of the departments. The expense is comparatively small. as the trustees are striving to operate the college on a cost basis. Our low rates will enable you to save enough. during your two years here. to pay for your junior year at a senior college. Our young men and women may remain in their homes two years longer. The extra-curricula activities are varied and afford opportunity to the students for development in public speaking. drama. music and athletics. The aim of the TEMPLE JUNIOR COLLEGE is not only to give two years of highly efficient literary work, but to develop talents and character in our young people as well. To this program the trustees and the faculty of the institution are dedicating their efforts. For further information see or write the Registrar.
