If, through our efforts, there has been established among the students a closer relationship with our school and faculty, we feel that we have accomplished our task. THE RAINBOW ORDER OF BOOKS The School CLASSES Activities Athletics Feati: hiss The Rainbow the X ynne Hlgli School The construction of the Wynne High School, ns it stands today, marked tin beginning of one of our most fundamental institutions. Under the leadership of F. L. Burke, President of the Board of Directors at that time, and the co-operation of Messrs. Tom Holt, B. F. Hamilton, Fred Bolfe, Will Tver and F. 11. Lcgg, we were able to secure enough money from the St. Louis Bond Company to put the new school building under construction. For the location of the building, Mr. Burke purchased a lot, consisting of two and sixty-five one-hundredths acres in East Wynne, costing two hundred and sixty-five dollars. The total cost of the building was to be ten thousand dollars, and the equipment twelve hundred dollars. After the completion of the building in 1906, school opened the following September, having an enrollment of two hundred and fifty pupils, and Mr. Wood- ward as Superintendent. However, this school taught only the first eight grades, and in 1915, due to growing attendance and the need for more grades, the Board of Directors, who were as follows: E. L. Burke, president; S. B. Curtis, Will Tyer, C. B. Wimmer, Tom Holt and W. H. Harrell, realized the necessity of building an annex, which would fulfill this purpose. The Board appropriated, by bond issues, thirty thousand dollars for cost of equipment, including the furnace and steel re-enforcements for the roof. The new addition was built onto the east and west ends of the old building. The school, as it is now, furnishes the required twelve years in high school, offering in addition to the usual course, studies in science, music, expression, and foreign languages. In 1925 the Wynne High School, on account of its well equipped library and various improvements, was admitted to the North Central Association, thus grad- ing it as an A-l school. In the fall of 1928 the Board of Directors, consisting of W. W. Stacy, presi- dent; H. N. Faulkner, J. C. Hilliard, J. H. Harris, I). H. Hamilton and W. R. Tyer, again appropriated funds by bond issues for a new grammar school and a gymnasium. The total cost of the building and equipment of the grammar school was fourteen thousand dollars; the complete cost of the gymnasium was ten thousand dollars. Mr. .1. H. Andrews has been Superintendent of the Wynne High School for the past two years, and Mr. W. B. Ooley, Principal. The enrollment of our High School at present is about one hundred and forty- five pupils, and under the faithful leadership of our superintendent, Mr. J. H. Andrews, together with the co-operation of the Faculty, Board of Directors, Parent- Teachers Association, and citizens of Wynne, we, as students are prone to look forward to making cur High School one of the greatest and best equipped of its size in the State.

The Rainbow Senior O ass History One September morning, twelve years ago, some forty little girls and boys made their advent into this great institution of learning. How happy and eager were these little folks as they began their education! This was the beginning of our class. The first term was over and from year to year this class passed on from grade to grade. Many were gained, but some also moved away and stopped school. Thus, our number remained about the same until grammar school was completed. In September, 1926, High School was made somewhat larger when forty-three Freshmen were added to the roll. How fearful we were lest we would not come up to the standard. Hut we feel we did succeed, and we, ourselves, helped hold up the standard. We had four new members- Davie Jones Howard Brimhall, Womack (iordon and Pauline Homan. Allie Mae Kennedy, Jewel Montgomery, Johnnie Dobings. and Murray Winningham came to us from Levesque. Others to come were Thelma Coffman, Elizabeth Primin, Cyril Talley and Carson Brown. We started off with a bang and were scarcely started when two old members, Estelle Gordon and Virginia Campbell, joined us. Pauline Waldrep and Madge Jayner came the second term. In the second year we were better acquainted with high school and we started off in earnest. We had lost several of our class members. These were Thelma Coffman, Pauline Homan, Womack Gordon, and Helen Campbell. Allie Mae Kennedy and Johnnie Howland found themselves capable of entering the Junior Class. Frank Collinsworth decided to join the Navy. Helen Evans and Thelma Cashier joined us that year and helped us greatly. During the third year we were nearing our goal, and we strived on. Davie Jones, by acquiring an extra amount of knowledge, entered the Senior Class. Thelma Cashier was back in Helena. Bernice Bloxon and Agnes Houston came to us as excellent pupils from the Freshman Class. Now, at last, we have reached our goal. We have at last attained the name “Senior,” and we feel we deserve it. We had lost several members. John Harrell. Murray Winningham, Johnnie Dobings, and Paul Caubble had left during the Junior year. Juanita Blair had gone in the summer. On the other hand, we gained three. Evelyn Holt and Earl Chapman entered our class. Louise Sullivan came from the Sophomore Class. Nadine Brown. Doris Bostic and Madge Joyner had to leave on account of sickness. Thomas Weeks left early in the year to do other things. Thus, here we are. twenty-eight in number, at the end of our High School career. We are eager and ready to go out to larger and greater fields. Virginia Campbell.

The Rainbow AH things considered, the 1929 football season was a very successful one, with six games won and four lost. Wynne met the best that Eastern Arkansas had to offer in the way of opposition, and won more than half of its games. The season started with almost a new team. The experienced men who re- turned were, Captain Spencer, halfback; Lester Billing, end; Jim llalk. tackle; Hobin Johnson, tackle; and Cldye Burke, guard. New men were forced to fill the vacant berths, among them, Howard Hall, Lindsey Mcbane, Harry Saripkin, halfbacks; Wesley Ogan, quarterback; and Clif- ford Hilliard, fullback. New linemen were Vernon Hancock, guard; Hulen Bridge and Jim Gooch, guards; Charley F. Steward, guard; Earl Chapman, center; Allen .Mcbane, end; and Benton Sander, end. The team worked well as a unit, its strongest feature being its team work and color. The opening game with McCrory was featured by two brilliant runs by Spencer, one (50 yards, resulting in a touchdown. Score. W. H. S. 19. McCrory . During Fair Week the veteran Earle team defeated the Jackets 24 to 0, due to inexperience and stage fright on the part of the locals. The following Friday, Harrisburg was defeated in the rain, 18 to 0. The entire line did splendid work. Osceola was the next victim, going down 20 to 6 on their own field. Brinkley proved a decided surprise, offering swift enough opposition to hold the score to 12 to 0 in favor of the locals. The veteran Cotton Plant team proved too much, and we went down with the lop-sided score of 52 to 0. Mariana proved the best mudders and due to blocked punts won 28 to 0. Paragould offered stiong opposition but went down in a 6 to 0 defeat in the last minute of the game, when Ogan intercepted a pass for a touchdown. Wynne fumbled four times on their own goal line in the first quarter, due to the excessive cold weather, and Helena won, 30 to 13. In the Thanksgiving game for the (boss County Championship, Parkin was defeated, 21 to (i, before the largest crowd of the season. Ogan ran the opening kickoff back 85 yards tor a touchdown. Johnson blocked a punt for a safety. Sanders received a long pass for a touchdown and Spencer intercepted a Parkin pass for the final points. In this game Parkin was taught a new way to spell defeat—W-V-N-N-E. the Rainbow FOOTBALL S iI A l Seated—First Row: HALL, HILLIARD. SPENCER. Captain. OGAN. SARIPKIX.

The Rainbow Basket Ball The season was begun with an inexperienced team. Captain Billing and Harry Saripkin, guards; Chester Spencer and Hugh Tucker, forwards; and Billy Farr were the only men returned. The first eight games of the season were lost and paved the way for a winning streak of eight games. The fifth district tournament was held in the new gymnasium on March f and 7, with Mariana winning and Helena finishing second. Wynne missed second place by two points when they lost the consolation final to Hughes. Financially, the tournament was a big success, bringing in well over $200. The gymnasium was packed for the final session. Prospects are bright for next season and with a year’s experience behind them, the team should be hard to beat. The squad were: Billings, Spencer, Saripkin, Farr, Tucker, A. Mebane, L. Mebane, Chapman, Sanders, Hancock and Johnson. Basketball Squad Seated A.

S., the Wynne sextette went through the season, winning seven games and losing four. The team worked hard, trying to produce a winning team, and we are proud of them. The girls were fortunate in having Mrs. Fields to coach them. A large part of the credit goes to her tireless efforts to make the team what it was. The team as a whole played good, clean basketball and was captained by Delma Hall.
