REPORTERS
The Tourth six weeks period is
coming to a close soon. At thia
time of dismay, tragedy, and sor-
row it would be nice to have some-
thing to cheer us up and help us
through this forthcoming crisis.
That is the purpose of the follow-
ing peeks at other school news-
papers.
If you think you think you have
a talent for putting your foot in
your mouth you should see what
these famous people are rumored
as having said.
“I don’t care how faithful you’ve
been, Prancer, my wife has a ter-
rible craving for venison.”—Santa
Claus.
“Get your cotton-picking hands
off my gin.”—Eli Whitney
"On the contrary, I think an
electric razor gives a very close
shave.”—Fidel Castro
“Say, Doc. Have you got any-
thing for this rash on my chest?'
—Napoleon
In Atlanta the government re-
spects the dead. The Associated
Press sent this story over the
wires.
“The Welfare Committee of the
Georgia House has killed a bill
which would have permitted the
eviction of the dead from their
graves for nonpayment on ceme-
tery lots.
“ ‘I've got too much respect for
the dead to see this pass.’ This was
the remark made by Rep. Richard
Thornton, who led the move to
table the measure.”
Now that you have read this
column and received the power arid
will to face the coming report cards
go forth and meet your fate. (Good
luck!)

Hi-Lo
we,' the youth of America, do not
believe in it ! ! !
Brotherhood has many meanings.
Brotherhood as we think of it dur-
ing Brotherhood Week is the Broth-
erhood of people of different re-
ligions and racial beliefs. The reali-
zation that God is the Father of all
men, and that all men are brothers
is the Brotherhood of the Bible.
Webster’s definition of Brotherhood
is a state of being brothers.
Remember, there can be no
Brotherhood when Swastikas are
being painted on Jewish syna-
gogues. Brotherhood does not exist
when an able presidential candidate
may not become President because
he is a Catholic. Brotherhood and
a state of distrust with the Central
American nations cannot co-exist.
When Russia and the U. S. stand
ready to blast each other off the
face of the earth true Brotherhood
cannot be achieved.
We, the teenaged youth of Amer-
ica and of all the world, have a
heavy burden to bear. We bear
the burden of the future of the
world, for we will be the adults of
tomorrow. Today we live in a world
of strife. Tomorrow we must have
the toppers: “Melody of Love;”
“Sincerely;” “Hearts of Stone;”
“Ko-Ko-Mo;” “Earth Angel;” and
“Tweedie Dee.” And now a peer
into the future ball. Ricky Nelson
has changed from his regular style
of song. He has recorded an E.P.
of Spirituals, “Ricky Sings Spirit-
uals.” Johnny Mathis’ “Starlight,”
“Step By Step” by the Crests, the
repress of “One Mint Julep” by
the Clovers, and a Homer and
Jethroe “spoof” on “El Paso,” spot-
light the crystal ball.
Still ranking No. 1 in Dallas is

Future Teachers Hear
Panel on Teaching
“Should a future teacher major
in education in college?” “Which
are the best colleges for teachers
training?” These and many other
questions concerning qualifications
of teachers and teaching require-
ments in college were presented at
the Future Teachers meeting Wed-
nesday, March 2, to a competent
panel of Thomas Jefferson teachers
consisting of Mrs. Cooper, Mrs.
Penry, Mrs. White, Mrs. Hiller,
and Miss Cole.
The meeting was called to order
by President Jill Morton. Elaine
Porter gave the invocation and
Karen Schneider was in charge of
the program, which was almost a
continuation, of the A & M Career
Clinics.
Refreshments followed the meet-
ing.

The criticism usually runs along lines of this nature:
“The competitive sport is placing emphasis on the wrong foot. It is
the beginning of the downfall of American education. It is completely
over-emphasized and out of proportion. Are athletics more important
than education? Can we win with good basketball teams?”
These are the major arguments against competitive athletics in the
academic high school. Such arguments sound strong and overpowering.
Let us, however, examine them at closer range. It is true that a great
deal of significance is placed upon athletics in the high school. The
justification of this stress, to this writer, is completely logical. The
environment of our very lives is a forceful and competitive one. We did
not make it that way. We did not ask for it to be that way. But it is
here. Our only alternative is to attempt to exist in this perplexing world
and try to make something of ourselves.
The competitive sport drenches the youth with the spirit of conflict,
so necessary a tool for everyday living. It teaches one to form a goal
and work tediously and honestly to meet his aim. More important is
the fact that competitive athletics gain a knowledge of what it is like
to lose, to be defeated. An ignorance of this could easily crush a
person’s life. Can we learn this in a classroom? Can words express
these ideas to us ? I think not.
In a world where competition is threatening our very existence and
security, our youth must be taught how to face opposition with courage.
Athletics is a fine and honorable manner in which to learn this. Some
men feel the need to develop their God-given resources in a physical
vein. Have the scholastic standards of Thomas Jefferson gone down
because of our fine athletic department ? Check the records and you
will learn that just the opposite has occurred. I say to those who
criticize: give these athletes a chance. Critics of athletics could well
learn a lesson from the very thing they criticize.
Consider the world in which we live realistically, and then consider
the part competition plays in it.

Who s the Ideal Sophomore?
Hark! A new feature is coming: the election of the ideal boy and
girl in each class. A different person'will be elected in each of the
categories listed in the ballot below. The voting procedure is simple.
On the ballot write your choice for each characteristic. When your
ballot is complete, bring it to room 203 and drop it in the box which
will be there for that purpose. The voting deadline is 3:45 p.m.
Wednesday, March 16. The winners will be announced in the next
issue of the Reveille.
Sophomores only are asked to vote this time. Each vote must be
cast for a sophomore. Juniors and seniors, your turns are coming.
Who was best in 1959? From
the Billboard Magazine we have
the winners in the 12th Annual
Disk Jockey Poll. They , chose the
favorite L.P. as “Come Dance With
Me” by Frank Sinatra and the
favorite single as “Mack The
Knife” by Bobby Darin. Other
single favorites were “High Hopes,”
“The Three Bells,” “The Chip-
munk Song,” “I Loves You Porgy,”
and “Battle Hymn of the Repub-
lic.” The L.P.’s were ‘-‘That’s All,”
“More Sing Along With Mitch,”
“Kingston Trio At Large,” “No
One Cares,” and “Heavenly.”
Again we shall peek into the
past. In March, 1955 these were
The brunette with the 100% personality you see in the halls is Betty
Emory. Betty takes part in both the Drill Team and Y-Teens.
Tennis, water skiing and bowling head Betty’s list of favorite sports.
The Mexican trend, fried chicken, and . . . “anything that tastes good”
strike Betty’s fancy.
As a choice for a top signer Betty chooses Pat Boone, although her
favorite current record is “Let It Be Me” by the Everly Brothers.
The one thing that disturbs Betty most is people who think they’re
better than someone else.
North Texas is Betty’s choice for college and she plans to major
in social work . . . (plug for career clinic).
BRUCE ROBERTS
Bruce Roberts, 4A, is on the football team and a member of the Key
Club, student council, and the Lettermen’s Club. Football, basketball,
and water sports are Bruce’s favorite sports.
As far as singers go, Bruce prefers Johnny Mathis and Pat Boone.
However, “Theme from a Summer Place” by Percy Faith seems to be
the most appealing record at the present.
Upon planning an ideal menu, Bruce would have either steak, turkey
or “anything that’s available.” Bruce’s pet peeve is people who are
always whispering when they’re in a group.
S.M.U. or Texas Tech are Bruce’s choices for college.
JOHN SPENCE
John Spence, 3A, likes dating, reading, and buying good looking
clothes with his parents’ money. His favorite singer is Johnny Mathis
which goes along with the type of music he likes best, moody.
John enjoys working on cars, and eating Mexican food.
As a pet peeve, John firmly dislikes family arguments and loud noises!
After completing high school John chooses either Texas A & M or
Texas University. His major will be aeronautical engineering.
SUSAN DOBSON
Susan Dobson, a candidate for sophomore favorite, takes an active
part in the French Club. Tennis, swimming, badmitton, and basketball
are favorite pastimes of this all around sports gal.
Tops on her list of a favorite vocal group are the “Kingston Trio.”
Enchiladas or fried chicken formulate her ideal meal.
When asked what the ideal traits are she likes in a boy Susan
replied sincerity and respect.
After completing her high school education, Susan plans to attend
S.M.U.
