Further evidence can be detected in all who have not fully grasp the complete m. , of this irreplaceable spirit. Proof of ' e fact that you have chosen the name WE DEDICATE . . . The 1959 Yellow Iatkel staff takes great pleasure in dedicating this year- book to Miss Burdette Smyth, who has served Thomas Jefferson faith- fully for more than three decades. In 1958 Miss Smyth founded the Junior Classical League, thus making it one of the oldest and most in- teresting clubs on the campus. Needless to say, the Language Department as well as TJ itself will never be quite the same without the guidance of Miss Smyth, head of Foreign Language Department. Lots of happiness, Miss Smyth, as you begin your well-deserved retirement. THIS YEAR'S ANNUAL . . . The 1959 Yellow jacket is also fondly dedicated to Mrs. Laurella Merrell for her unceasing effOrts in making TJ's Language Department one of the finest in this area. Mrs. Merrell has been sponsor of the Spanish Club for many consecutive years. She has been an inspiration to many of our Latin-Amen'can students, and has sought to help us better understand our southern neighbors. For these and many other reasons, the 1959 Yellow Iarket staff is most honored to include Mrs. Merrell in its dual dedication to two wonderful people.

Assistant student directors H J. Gralino and Judy Hatfield seem puzzled as student director Malcolm Wall attempts to fill Mr. Badgett's shoes. Under the direction of MI. John L. Bad- gett, our already famous Maroon and Gold Band has risen to an even greater degree of populaxitys The Maroon and Gold Band of Thomas Jefferson Senior High School is well known in many parts of the country for its precision marching, varied formations, and superlative playing. In addition to participating in the half-time activities at the football games and adding color to the many street parades, the Band also entertains the students in assembly programs and at its annual concert, Included in the long list of famous festivities in which the Band has participated, are the Cotton Bowl and the March Grass This year our Band is the Honor Band, leading the King Rex float and entertaining His Majesty in New Orleans' spectacular celebration, I94 STILL OUR VICTORIES ARE TOLD Adding color and beauty to all hand activities are: majorettes, Judy Hatfield. Gloria Redfearn, Judy Methvin, Barbara Myers: drum major Francis Ronhausen, and color guards, Peggy Rose, Martha Laird, Beverly Jackson. and Dewana Wn'borgl Malcolm Wall, accompanied by Mr. John Badgett, places a gleaming crown on Francis Ron- hausenl naming her a Band Sweetheart.

Wall, F. Ronhausen, L. Baker, K. Reid. The success of our great Band cannot be credited to one person or one group of per- sons. Its climb to success has been a long ascent which has been achieved through the will and undying school spirlt of each member, A foundation was built during the Bands first few years of existence. From that time forward, each ensuing Band added its achievements, gradually in- creasing the honors, awards, and fame of the Band. In the years to come, the challenge will be even greatert in that future members will have to retain the standards that have already been established.

Many hours of marching and playing will highlight the next two years for them at TJ. 304 A FOND AND FINAL FAREWELL We take one final look at the building we have loved. We hear the laughing of friends now gone. We remember them still, but someday we shall forget them, just as we shall forget the many happy hours here, Many students have come and have gone from this place of learning and growing. We came first afraid and young; we leave bold and triumphant. Our lives are ready, at last, to meet the world and its hardships. We do not attempt to be most wise, only most willing. Listen carefully to our song. It's the last time it will be heard in these halls. Another song will replace our song, another age our age, another way of life our way. All will be changed, yet all will remain in her memories. The laughter of the past, the cry of joy, the hopes of the future, the sorrow and pain are hers to keepThomas Jeffer- sonwur school. -LINDA LAUGHMAN Amotiate Editor , 305 306 A THANK YOU NOTE On behalf of the annual staff, I would like to take this opportunity to acknowl- edge my appreciation to everyone who has helped in the preparation of the 1958-59 edition of THE YELLOW JACKET. First, thanks is due Mrs. Mike Redman, our sponsor, for her Patience during trying times and her much-needed assistance at all times. Miss Jeanette Tenney and Miss Louise Erwin also deserve a kind word of appreciation for letting our staff delve so frequently into their files. Mr. R T. Reynolds has proved quite helpful in his direction of the advertising sales. Our photographers from Watkins, Rice, Provine, Cricchio, and Perkins' studios have been most patient. Too, our publishers, Taylor Publishing Company of Dallas, have proved most helpful in numerous ways. Special llprops for our Favorite division came from McClaeaners and Marvel's Gift Shop. There are innumerable other people behind the scenes who helped us im- measurably, particularly the homeroom teachers who have seen to the sale of the mnual. Sincere thanks is also due them. Last, but certainly not least, thanks is extended to the purchasers of this book for accepting it as is emistakes included. My sincere thanks, Alice Haynes Editor-in-Cbief TAYLOR PUBLISHING COMPANY The World's sesv Yearbooks Are Taylor-made
