0 upcx xu I#euaefli Mr. C. J. Duncan has been in Burkburnett schools for seventeen years, beginning as a math teacher, then advancing to principal and later to superintendent. During this time he has been large ly responsible for many improvements. Among these are: the new grade school; the new football stadium and dressing rooms; the tennis courts; es­ tablishment of the school band; enlargement of the high school curriculum, library facilities, and commercial department, and the combining of Clara schools with Burkburnett on a contract basis. Mr. Duncan received his B. A. and M. A. de­ grees from the University of Oklahoma and did further graduate work at the University of Southern California. In his leisure time he enjoys fishing and traveling.

Principal Mr. Guy C. Pryor has been principal of Burkburnett High School for three years. During this time, he has given his support to many improvements. Among these are: The school publications, choice of curricula, activity period, point system, and the student council. Having received his B. A. degree at North Texas State Teachers College, Mr. Pryor went to Southern Methodist University and was there awarded his M. A. degree. He also did additional graduate work at the University of Texas. Reading and traveling are his favorite hobbies. He likes social studies, such as occupational guid­ ance, which he teaches.

When, through extensive discussion and study the students of Burkburnett High School learned the principles of self-government, a student coun­ cil was organized. At the beginning of the 1940-41 school term each class selected its representatives to serve on the Student Council, which became our miniature congress. From that day forth, through their representatives, students began to have a voice in the government of Burkburnett High School. The preamble of the Constitution for the Student Council of Burkbur­ nett: "We, the members of the Burk­ burnett High School, in order to foster a spirit of cooperation amongst the student and faculty, coordinate and regulate student activities, maintain a high standard for the school by up­ holding high standards of per­ sonal conduct, promote and en­ courage activities for the best interests of the school, and develop good citizens through experience in govern­ ment, do hereby establish this constitution for the Student Council of the Burkburnett High School."

Through the cooperation of the student council, the class favorites were elected this year without any sort of restriction or money being involved. In a democratic manner, the election began by nominations of favorites from each class by secret ballot. The nominations were then voted on and the favorite boy and favorite girl from each class were determined. Their election is a distinct honor to the favorites, since the majority of the students took advantage of their chance to cast one free vote, and the selected favorites are really the choice of the students.

Three cheers for the cheer leaders! Good football and basketball teams can do wonders if they have th support of their school. Our student cheering sec­ tion has been a decided succes in its purpose of giving our teams the support they so obviously de­ serve, and the untiring efforts of our four cheer leaders have contributed greatly to the success of the cheering section and consequently to that of ou: teams. Under their influence school spirit has risen to a new high. The sound of their songs and cheers echoes through every hall and room, and has given life to a sentiment of pride for our school that will linger long in the minds of the students of Burkburnett High School— past, present, and fu­ ture.

Who’s Who Who’s who? The qualities of leadership, character, scholarship, sportsmanship, and extra curricular activi­ ties determine the answer to this question. This year twelve Seniors representing the outstanding students from the Senior class were nominated by the faculty of Burkburnett High School. The nominations were then submitted to the Senior class to be voted on, and the eight nominees receiving the highest number of votes were the answers to the question "Who's who?" The names, personal information, and high school ac­ tivities of the "Who’s Who" selections will be listed in a book entitled "Who’s Who Among High School Students in Texas," published by the American High School Educational Association at Baylor University. The significance of their selection to the "Hall of Fame" can hardly be better expressed than in the words of a congratulatory letter from the American High School Educational Association to the "Who’s Who" students, "This Association knows that you will be one of the leaders of tomorrow who must and will be prepared to protect our great democratic ideals and to foster good government and citizen­ ship in the State of Texas.

Basketball Champions This year for the first time the Bulldogs won the basketball District championship, playing 22 games and winning 20 of them. A team is as strong as its weakest member and the Bulldogs won the District. Every boy had a great part in winnings each game, whether he played in all the games or in none of them. Through his display of clean sportsmanship, Coach Polk Robison has set excellent examples for his boys. Through the great efforts of the team and the support of the student body, it has been proven that Burkburnett High School excels in more than one field.
