Playing strong intersectional foes again last fall, the Fayetteville Bulldogs
won five and lost five—not bad against such teams as Subiaco, Tulsa, Will
Rogers, and Springfield, Missouri.
The Dogs opened the season by upsetting Siloam Springs 7—0. Rain, fumbles,
and penalties held the score down.
Springdale also fell before the Bulldog attack 12—6, but Subiaco put a damper
on Fayetteville spirits 13—6.
Harrison was the third victim 13—6. The Bulldogs quicJcly scored two touch-
downs but bogged down after the first quarter.
Will Rogers outscored Fayetteville 40—27 in one of the best games of the
season. Bill Brooks made a brilliant 95 yard kickoff return.
Fayetteville came within inches of the District One AA crown. With the score
12—7 and less than two minutes to play, Van Buren held for downs on the six
inch line.
Playing the best game of the year Fayetteville beat Springfield 13—12, scoring
in the last 10 seconds.
Joplin spoiled a perfect homecoming by scoring the winning margin on a late
fourth-quarter drive. Final score 22—19.
By beating Rogers 32—6, the Bulldogs got the thirty points coach Vandergriff
had been waiting two years for.
Tulsa Daniel Webster was played to a stand still for three quarters but
finally over-powered the Dogs 32—20.

With a host of juniors on the squad, Coach Glenn
Stokenberry's Fayetteville Bulldogs hung up an 8—11
record for the 1950—51 basketball season.
Among the eight losses were two point defeats at the
hands of Siloam Springs in two overtimes, Springfield,
twice to Joplin, Missouri defending state champions, and
one point to Van Buren, Arkansas defending state
crown in 1951, by a score of 37—32.
Fayetteville was knocked out of the state play-offs
when Bentonville pulled an upset in the first round of the
district tournament. A free throw in the fading seconds
broke a 54—54 tie. Russell McConnell was named on the
all-district team.

tinuing projects of previous years such as the circus, pie supper, music room, concession stand, coke
machine, Goodfellow baskets, social benefit drive, and school parties, they have started the new

This is to all of you who helped with our production,
THE AMETHYST. It’s impossible to tell you how much we
appreciate it.
At the time it may have seemed like an awful lot of hard
work but now that it’s over and done with we know you’re
mighty proud of it and glad you had a part.
This letter’s for all of you FHS guys and gals, too. This
record of ’50—'51 was planned with “you” in mind.
We hope you've enjoyed every page.

In the first days of Indian Summer....
the grind begins....purple and white
uniforms tumbling in the mud and dust....
brassy band marching under the flood-
lights of the football field____cheer-
leaders in their first stiff work-outs____
Peppers performing precise routine....
County Fair hits town and the kids hit
the fair....holes in FHS attendance
mean SC Convention____sun turns to
shadow and heavy winter coats....
southern belles and gentlemen at the
Southern Melodies Show....pep rallies
and alumni bring memories ofother Home-
comings while Queen Susie holds the
spotlights.....“Step right up, ladies and
gents, the SC Circus is here!”....
Christmas with its parties and smiles
and presents (and vacation!)....football
rolls into basketball and FHS meets
Tulsa Central....Peppers hard at work
on the Spaghetti Supper....Color’s Day
with Lorraine crowned queen...harassed
students digging into their books for

the first snow has “crept in on little cat
feet”....end of first semester.
Trudging back to school with books in
arms....hearts and loving glances mark
Valentine’s Day and early spring....
Home Ec banquet and savory smells....
FHS is knocked out in the first game of
the district tournament with tears and
woe-begone faces....excitement and well
placed hints mount as the SC Pie Supper
approaches....we air our vocal talent
in Mrs. Mitchell’s concert....daffodils
bloom, robins return, the sun keeps late
hours, love reigns supreme, and cares and
lessons are forgotten as Easter Vacation
rounds the bend....convention time
again, NHS and SC....proud students
accept their honors on the 11th of April...
...scared “to be’’ freshmen at the Sopho-
more Guides party....the band with
shining instruments takes off for state
meet....the first senior event of the
year, the play....then it's the FFA'S
to have a banquet...Mammasand Poppas
