The next day, Thursday, was the
day for the solos and ensembles.
The only real tragedy that day
was when Linda Taylor. Nancy
Grandey -and Carol Sheirly got lost
in the First Baptist Church, where
some of the solos were held, and
didn't get to hear any solos. But
don't laugh many more got lost
but kept it a secret. I believe Mr.
"Mac” was the only one who found
his way through the maze of doors
and floor levels, and only with the
help of his Capt. Video Ultra-Violet
Compass. There were also a couple
of minor problems. The first when
Ernest Brown couldn't find the
convention hall. Now this in itself
was nothing; but he had Jack Ker-
stine's drum, and Jack had a solo
at 8:45. So Jack ended up using
some ’ole boys drum that he
hadn't ever seen before. And then
Mitchell Wells, bless his heart,
went up to the room and rememb-
ered that he had previously left the
key in the room. So instead of
going to the janitor and getting a
master key, he climbed through
the transom. But just between you

might say that Nub didn't make
the trip with the band, in fact
everyone was very surprised when
he showed up in Enid Friday
night. You should have seen the
look on his face when we told him
he had over shot the Rancho Drive-
In.
We ( say we because I went,
too) heft the band hall at (ho-hum)
6:30 Wednesday morning. After a
long trip, we arrived in Enid. The
first thing we did was to go to
the football field to practice our
marching routine. The field is the
outstanding field for high schools
in Oklahoma. One of the reasons
is the unique lighting arrangement.
After our little exercise we went
to register in the Oxford Hotel,
which was our home for four days.
We crowded into the lobby while
Mr. McMath registered us. His
arm got mighty tired writing 72
names but that is one of the many
duties of a conductor. The rest of
the afternoon, the whole hour and
fifteen minutes, was strictly free
time. That night we went to see

To avoid the chance of a hot

salesman conslts the head office,
Spaulding sends the “head office"
along on the sales trip.

the sales manager can make an

available for demonstration rides.

Mr. "Mac" told band members
that he was very well pleased with
the performance and show that
they gave both in their concert and
marching. He also expressed his
thanks for the fine behavior of the
band. The sponsors on the trip
were Dr. Sam Trickey, father of

BIRTHDAY HONORS
By four o'clock last Friday, any-
one offering cake or cokes to Mrs.
L. A. Hanley, the Latin teacher
at Denton High, would’ve receiv-
ed a polite but emphatic "No" for
an answer. Unusual? Yes, but aft-
er four of her classes baked fancy
birthday cakes and served with
acompanying songs, she figured a
diet was in her near future!
The first class really weut
Latin with cup-cakes spelling out
"Tempus Fugit" (Time is flying-
a facteious crack) and a big cake
stating "Amamus Te" (We love
you.) Mary Ann Lockhart baked
the delicious cake, and Josephine
Hutcheison, the cup-cakes. In sec-
ond hour, sixteen candles (for
sweet sixteen — oh those sly ones)
graced a lovely cake that Suzanna
Hindman baked all by herself.
(Time off while you fellows jot
down these good cooks' names).
The third hour came up with an
all-aqua colored cake with pink
roses, etc; the fancy-work of
Charlotte Mitchell, (Oh, that lucky
Ernest Fisher!)
Not to be, outdone, the fifth hour
Latin Whipped into old 304 with
their confections, and that, plus a
long-distance call from the band
members, who were in Oklahoma
and couldn’t be in on the celebra-
tion, really made it a big day for
all concerned. Everyone thought
that the festivites would ward off
a test for a few days.. or maybe
a few hours, aw Mrs. Hanley just
a few minutes. Where did all
those hard earned brownies go ??
COLLECT BOOKS
Maybe the Girls Athletic Asso-
ciation of Denton High should be
dubbed the Future Story-Tellers of
America. The girls have been col-
lecting children's toys and pooks
as one of their projects. On Thurs-
day the toys and books were pre-
sented to the City-County Nursery
by Jan Smith. Imogene Owens.
Billie Ruth Haryill and Bleva
Jones. They also played games and
read stories from 4:30 to 5:30
at the nursery. On Tuesday after-
noon, LeNonia Starr and Mary
Gallagher helped with the recrea-
tional program at the nursery.
They played games with the chil-
dren, supervised other play aetivit-
les, and read stories. There were
about 20 children at the nursery
during the afternoon.
Spilled ink on the floor, used ball
point cart-ridges in the paper bas-
kets, and kids being nile to one
another are all signs of annual
signing time, and Denton High is
no exception. We received our
books, the 'M Bronco, Friday aft-
ernoon in a special assembly, and
since "we have been signing like
mad. The Bronco is gold with
black lettering and is filled with
the pleasant memories of the last
school year.
The staff for the book this year
was editor - in - chief, Beverly
Gross; Class Editor, Peggy Aiken;
Business Manager, Mary Margaret
McBryde. Typist, Kathryn Weed-
on; Art and Feature Editor, Jo-
Ann Roberson; Sports Editor, Da-
vid MacKenna, and Photographers,
Todd Messinger, Teddy Broyles
and Henry Terrell. Others were
Sally Hannah, Shirley Stephens,
Betty Fultz, Mitchell Wells, and
Tommy Spillman. The staff was
sponsored this year by Douglas
Bennett.
