Shoes — the echoes of their footsteps Whisper many secrets down the Corridors of time. From the Days of Old, they have carried Men about their tasks of both Good and evil; and these deeds Have left indelible footprints In the sands of time, pointing the Way to glory and valor, or The way to cowardice and destruction. Shoes — many are the interwoven Pathways they have trod During our high school years. Their footprints mark the pathways To classes, to sports and social events. Shoe-skates, loafers, oxfords, tennis shoes, Football shoes, and the Staccato beat of high heels— All are a part of a phase In our lives that we shall never forget. Always in El Reno High School These shoes have taken steps In the right direction under expert guidance. So now, for memory's sake, and Lest we should forget in years to come, We have recorded here, for all to see and read, A printed and pictorial record of the steps we took During the school year of 1951-52. K

^Dedication

The corridors and the rooms of El Reno High School would be just a little less bright, just a little less cheery, and somehow just a little empty without the never-ending bright smile and the ever- understanding* heart of our friend, teacher, and registrar, Mr. M. A. Mitchell, Jr. As a member of the faculty, he has given the students a better and more comprehensive interpretation of what the word'"life" really means and has been a close friend to everyone with whom he has been associated. Quietly going about his / daily tasks, he has served our high school in a most commendable manner. In dedicating this 1952 Boomer- Collegian to you, Mr. Mitchell, we wish for you many, many years of happiness and many more success­ ful years as the EHS registrar.

To all of us who knew her, Miss Hodnett was more than an instructor; she was a sym­ pathetic and understanding friend. Her personality drew the student into a friendship that led to everlasting memories. Her guidance was appreciated and cherished because the stu­ dent always knew that she had his best interest at heart, and her advice came from a vast store of knowledge and experience. As our principal Mr. Walter P. Marsh has said, "Although she won't be with us in our classes, we won't count her absent, for she has a DCA from the Master Teacher."

This year's band of El Reno Indians brought the Even though El Reno's fighting Indians did not long absent football fever back to the El Reno towns­ go all the way, they gained the respect and admir­ folk, as the team went through the most successful ation of fans and opponents alike because of their season in the history of the school. fine, clean, hard playing; and they established themselves as a leading team in the state football Running over 11 opponents while dropping but 2 power houses. tilts, the 1951 edition of El Reno Indians, built around 15 returning lettermen, won district, bi-district, and state quarter-final games before bowing in the state semi-finals to the Ponca City Wildcats. They racked up a total of 346 points during the season compared with 142 points scored against them by opponents. After two weeks of pre-season football training at Fort Reno, the hardened El Reno gridsters started rolling toward a schedule that would find them as one of the top 10 teams in the state most of the year. Opening the season on the home field, El Reno knocked over Watonga's Eagles, 32-0, and followed suit by whipping Guthrie, 34-20; Clinton, 34-7; North­ east, 38-0; and Chickasha, 14-0. Duncan snapped the win streak, 20-7, but did little damage to the In­ dians' spirits, as they came back to sweep the remain­ ing games on the regular schedule. Lawton fell by a 13-0 score, Edmond fumbled through a 46-12 defeat; Putnam City absorbed a 40-0 licking on a muddy Adams Park turf; and, in the final regular season game, El Reno, won the district championship by downing Anadarko, 27-13. The 1951 Indians, the first El Reno team ever to enter the state playoffs, won the bi-district game over Edmond, 20-13, in a Thanksgiving day classic; and, the next week, faced Stillwater's Pioneers, who had been tabbed as likely state champs all fall, in the state quarter-final game. Unleashing a devastating air and ground attack at the cocky Pioneers, the E) Reno boys turned in one of their finest all-round per­ formances of the season, as they dusted Stillwater off, 21-13, and gained the right to enter state semi-final play against the Poncans. Although El Reno put on a fine display of foot­ ball art, the Ponca City squad went home with a •'!!- 20 victory, enabling them to enter the state finals.

CHS Diary for IQ52 Dear Diary, So that we may remember in future years the events of our schoolyear of 1951-52 that we recall so vividly now, we have written them down in this, our diary, and have published them in our Boomer to preserve them in a permanent record. SEPTEMBER Dear Diary, In September we happily—and reluctantly—came back to school from summer vacation for the beginning of the 1951-52 term. The girls were beginning to worry because they out-numbered the boys 328-267, and leap year was coming on. Everyone was noticing the changes in the building. There was a cafeteria where the old study hall had been, a new library on the main floor, the old library, ^l* now the site of a club luncheon room called the Rose Room. The Forum had the ^ honor of being the first club to hold a meeting there. We really weren't accustomed to school yet when we found ourselves right in the middle of the football queen race. Cute little Doris Merveldt was elected in one of the closest races in EHS history. We thought we were seeing double for a while, but then we discovered it wasn't our eyes at all, but twins! EHS had four sets! Installation and initiation of FHA officers and members was held toward the last of the month. A half holiday for the State Fair made everybody happy. Well, dear diary, these were our activities for September. This is the first time we've kept a diary, and we trust we related the facts to you accurately. If our efforts weren't satisfactory, however, maybe they will improve in October.

OCTOBER Dear Diary, October opened with a big musical production. The vocal and instrumental music departments and the speech and stagecraft departments worked together to bring to the stage of EHS the music from the Broadway productions of "Oklahoma," "South Pacific," and "Showboat." itffo). We were busy "looking pretty" to have our pictures taken for the annual. T&I ^P students took over Penney's store for a day. In spite of the snow that caused many delays, six organizations decided to ob­ serve the traditional hayrack rides. They were Phi, BMC, Art Club, Senate, Forum, and Service Patrol. Eighteen of our bright and shining journalists made a trip to Norman—to attend a journalism conference, that is. Perhaps the outstanding humorous event this month was the Pepett and Squaw pledge day. Many of our freshmen, who had never witnessed this before, thought the witches and goblins of Halloween had really come to life, but we managed to convince them that these hideous sights were really harmless pledges. The formal initiations were also held this month. And just so the favorite EHS pastime of upperclassmen—torturing the poor pledge—could continue, the Forum and Senate issued bids. The FFA held its initia- tion for "green hands," and October faded into November. NOVEMBER Dear Diary, One of the first social events of November was the T&I hayride. We were all very proud of Franklin Shive when he was named "lineman of the week" by the Daily Oklahoman sports writers. Finally, after many postponements because of snow and rain, Doris, our pretty football queen, was crowned. The BMC and Phi issued bids, and the poor girls who were just recently ini­ tiated into the pep clubs found themselves pledges again. The art club also acquired new pledges, and the Adelante initiated theirs. During the two-day Thanksgiving vacation Miss Hodnett and four students at­ tended a press conference in Topeka, Kansas. Mary Jane Joehnk and Peg Huston even got their pictures in Topeka's daily newspaper. Big wheels. . . . The pep clubs gave the football boys a big send-off to the state quarterfinal game, at Stillwater, and November, 1951, passed forever from our midst.

DECEMBER Dear Diary, Needless to say, even as the month opened, everybody had already begun to think of Christmas, and most of the December social events were planned around this holiday. Added to this excitement was the state semi-final football game—first semi­ final in the history of EHS. Th3 all-school play, "The Night of January 16th," however, kinda jumped the gun on the new year. The BMC and Art Honor Society conducted initiations, and we entered the last six weeks of the first semester. Four of our student council members attended a conference in Stillwater, and Nancy Erbar was chosen 1951-52 FFA sweetheart. EHS students like to have some sports going on all the time, and almost as the football season closed, the basketball season opened. By now, the Christmas spirit was really in full swing. The music departments presented their annual Christmas concert, and holly-bedecked halls saw socials spon­ sored by Pepetts, FHA, Senate, Forum, Adelante, freshman pep club, and FFA. The vacation for the holidays began, and students and teachers parted with shouts of "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year."

JANUARY Dear Diary, l^-v-1 New Year's resolutions were floating around the halls when we came back to school in January. Initiation was held for Phi pledges, and nine new students entered EHS as second semester began. A savings stamps booth was set up in the hall by the student council, with stamps to be sold each Tuesday and Thursday. We were entertained in assembly by the Norman trio from the University of Oklahoma, and our own EHS talent presented a very entertaining program later in the month. Fair weather put a hint of spring in the air, and we wondered if it were really February staring us in the face.

FEBRUARY Dear Diary, Valentine's day set the theme for February. The advanced girls' chorus presented an assembly entitled "Sweethearts on Parade," and comments of "What a sweetheart" were heard when Lorene Garrett was elected basketball queen. Her majesty's coronation was also this month. The National Honor Society made nineteen juniors and seniors very happy by issuing them bids. More music held the spotlight when the EHS band presented its annual mid­ winter concert. Another annual event was the FHA parent-daughter banquet, and National FFA week was observed February 17-24. Something different in the way of social events was held when the BMC's and their guests dressed up to go to a costume party. The Forum and Senate held a benefit basketball game for the March of Dimes. The score was tied at the end. The juniors received their class rings and seniors voted on graduation announcements. February changed to March. MARCH Dear Diary, In March a great tragedy overshadowed all other events here at EHS. It was the untimely death of Miss Josephine Hodnett, our Boomer supervisor, in an auto­ mobile accident. School wgs dismissed for her funeral, and a great many students and teachers attended. '7j'\ (lAst-Co '3-7, / f $ oLs Earlier in the month some of A&M's students journeyed all the way from Still­ water to present an assembly in the EHS auditorium, and basketball season passed to make way for spring sports. Track, tennis, and baseball held our attention. Students were rushing to get in their down payments on the annual before the deadline, and EHS made a good showing in inter-school competitions. The speech department placed second in the speech sweepstakes contest at East Central college in Ada, and Jane Bailey was runner-up in the state VFW oratorical contest. Judy Hud- dart won fourth place in the state essay contest, "Employment of the Handicapped." Musically speaking, the band attended a contest at Central State college, Ed­ mond, and the vocal music department held its annual spring concert. We all rooted for our favorite team when the Senate and Forum held their second benefit basketball game, the victors being the Forumites. El Reno sent its share of Future Homemakers to the state rally in Oklahoma City. Campaign speeches were heard all through the halls just before student council election; it was all climaxed when we filed to the polls to elect our student leaders for next year. There were three parties during this month of the lion and the lamb. The Squaws entertained their guests at a dance and game party and the cast of the junior play celebrated its success as Thespians. The Adelante enjoyed traditional Spanish games at their social. So the March breezes ushered in the April showers.

APRIL Dear Diary, The poor boy was reveling in the joy of "twirp season" the first week of April when his billfold was spared by the "generosity" of the girls. Climaxing this week TwiRf> of merriment the student council sponsored a sock hop in the gym. The freshman pep club also held a sock hop this month and the Phis enter­ tained guests at their annual spring social. The school building literally shook with excitement the second week in April when an earthquake caught the entire student body assembled in the auditorium. We all enjoyed a day's Easter holiday, and as part of our annual observance of Easter, devotional assemblies were held every day the preceeding week. The Thespians of EHS presented a one-act play festival the middle of the month, and the seniors took the spotlight with their play toward the last of the month of showers. One of the biggest social events of the early spring season was the Pepett athletic banquet, which is an annual affair and is always the occasion for a lot of preparation. Pretty Dorothy Whipple was elected and crowrted 1952-53 band queen at the annual spring band concert. Another annual event was the school carnival which always has a large turn­ out. This year was no exception. With all this activity over, we said goodby to April, and hello to a month that promised to be even busier.

MAY Dear Diary, The band was quite busy this last month of school. They attended two festivals and held a banquet. The juniors were industriously making decorations for the junior-senior ban­ quet, and the Phis held their mother-daughter tea. Senate members also stepped into the social spotlight this monh with a hayride. The seniors, at last reaching the goal for which they have long struggled, en­ joyed senior class night and commencement immensely. And with all the excitement of these events over it became time for us to say farewell to school, some of us not to return again next autumn. When school closed, we knew some of our paths would never cross again, and that these faces and the events of this year would fade in our minds as the mists of time close about the years. That is why, dear diary, we have recorded them here, as faithfully as we possibly could. In this way the mists of time may be pushed aside in future years when we recall the school year of 1951-52.

With many happy memories of our years spent in EHS, we bid farewell to the underclassmen and wish them success and happiness. —Seniors of '52 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS —Bob Maine, Marilyn Birlew, Patsy Royse, Shirley Flippen, Jo- lene Wilcox ....

There are oxfords, sandals, loafers, boots, overshoes and Rom­ an sandals; there are high topped, low topped, high heeled, low heeled, leather, cloth, wooden, red, white, and black, as well as those of doctors, statesmen, economists, poets, preach­ ers, teachers, humanitarians, and philanthropists. Some shoes make foot-prints in the sand; others make foot-prints in the sands of time. Some shoes are easily fi-lled; others are rarely if ever completely filled. Are your shoes of the description which give you a feeling of adequacy and satisfaction? It takes conscien­ tious effort to make them so. GfyG

fin Unforgettable txperience

I suppose that we all agree that this, our first (for some) or last (for others) year in junior college was an unforgettable experience. It is fixed in our minds, not because it was awe-in­ spiring, but because, enjoyed or not, we remember it as being different from the "school" that with which we are all so familiar.

A fellow begins to realize that this business of "growing up" is accompanied by a new feeling after all. That sense of re­ sponsibility ... of knowing that what you do is a product of your own iniative; not of someone shoving you. The satisfaction of finding out that people do respect your judgment and aren't as­ tonished when you actually come up with something good.

Situations like these lead you to believe that you are on your way. It's a good feeling. You realize that from here on out you're an individual personality; one of a group, but an individual. oZl>.-7^ <-• c^y*^^*^
