The monogram of the Apprentice School, as worn on athletic sweaters and jerseys, is an “A” of eight inches in height, whose width is seven inches at the base and two inches at the top. The color is yellow gold, with the sport insignia in maroon, thus depicting the school colors. To be allowed to wear the coveted “A” one must have played in the required number of quarters in football and basketball, earned the required points in track, and made the required wins in wrestling and golf. Each Apprentice winning the “A” wears it with great pride. Any- one may be in line to win a key for high scholastic average but to be eligible to win and wear the monogram of any school a person must possess fine character and stamina, and must be of the highest calibre, to fulfill all the requirements of good sportmanship. The monogram is presented by Coach F. M. Dobson, after the award has been suggested and approved by the athletic councilman and the board of directors of the school. MONOGRAM AWARDS H. C.

THE GOLD MUSIC AWARD The Gold Music Award is just as difficult to obtain as the Gold Athletic Award. After playing in the Apprentice Band for a period of two years, the musician, if his conduct is worthy of the honor, is presented with a monogram. If he displays the same high standard of service for two more years, he is then entitled to wear the Gold Music Award. This award must be approved by the Officers of the Band, the Faculty Advisor, and the Director of Education and Training. The student’s attendance records for rehearsals, as well as his conduct at rehearsals and in public are taken into consideration. Editor’s Note: Due to the discontinuation of awards in 1943 because of the lack of sufficient student body to make the presentation of awards practical there will be few awards given in time to appear in this yearbook. Pictures of those receiving the awards for 1947-48 will appear in the next volume of the Binnacle. The music award will be continued when the various music groups are reorganized. The journalism award is given since one does not have to be a graduate to receive this award and there is such a small group from which to select the recipients. THE GOLD ATHLETIC AWARD The Gold Athletic Award is the highest award that can be made to the Apprentice Student for athletic activities. To receive the Gold Athletic Award an athlete must prove his worth by receiving at least two monograms for one sport, playing for four consecutive years or serving satisfactorily until eliminated for some reason beyond his control. The award is made by the Athletic Council only after being approved by the Athletic Director and the Director of Education and Training. [ 28 ]
