ral schools. Mr. Simmons re-
ceived his B. A. and M. A. De-
grees from the University of
Texas. He came to Golden to
become superintendent of the
an affiliated high school.
All that Mr. Simmons has

________Paul Henson | wish to give him all the credit
Harold Simmons Iand honor we can because,
through the many years he has
toiled preparing us for life and
its problems, we have learned

he is dead.”

grade, but through the untir-

the school board, there was a
new addition added to the
school and Golden then became

Senior News
The seniors held a class meet-
ing November 5 to decide upon
their senior play. After much
debating and many arguments
everyone agreed to have “Here
comes the Prince.” Since this
is the last play of our high
school days, it should be the
banner play of the year.

Alton Littleton, an ex-grad-
uate of Golden High visited

Here, there and everywhere, Hudson style and stamina are making new
conquests—taking thousands of hearts by storm.
This preference for the new Hudson is phenomenal, even in a year when car
demand is far above normal. You ought to know the reasons for it.
Women's hearts—men’s, too—have been captured by the smartness of new
exterior styling, and the luxury of new interiors upholstered in a leather-fabric
combination found in only one other 1946 car (one of the highest priced).
Present Hudson owners—and thousands of "habit buyers” of other makes as
well—also know what a mountain of evidence Hudson piled up during the
war years for smooth performance, reliability, endurance and economy.
There’s another reason ... the splendid Protective Service offered by 3,000
authorized Hudson dealers from coast to coast—with expert mechanics, modern
equipment and genuine Hudson parts.
We are here to serve you—promptly, courteously, at moderate cost. Visit
us today. You will find this Hudson organization, too, is "the perfect team”
—backing fine cars with expert service, for your satisfaction.

BOY’S SPORTS NEWS
.The Golden team defeated
the Yantis Owls 20-15 to move
into the finals with Point in
the lattcis invitation tourna-
ment November 1st and 2nd.
Because of rain, the final game
was postponed to the 9th cn
which dale the mo re-exper-
ienced Point veterans edged
cut the much-improved Hor-
net Quintet, 30-29. Golden re-
ceived an engraved trophy for
second place.
Point viited the ole’ home-
town November 12th and took
away a 40-24 decision—their
victory being credited to their
very fast start. The quick-
breaking visitors made 10
points before the startled Hor-
nets counted. Afterwards the
game was fairly evenly fought,
the Panthers never losing their
lead.
13-12 was the narrow mar-
gin between Miller Grove and
Golden the last-named on top,
when the M. G. Hornets visited
the Golden Hornets at the lat-
ter Hornets, November 14.
Alba’s Eagles were no match
for the local squad November
19 as the Golden five “mopped
the floor” with the former to
a tune of 40-14. No return
game is scheduled, as yet.
The articles under Sports
News every two weeks are
merely a summary of the
games played by the Golden
Hornets. Very few details will
be given due to the fact that
there will be so many games
to report at once--and they’ll
be so old.

Know Grady Dawkins? Only a few do

Well, to make a long story short,
