In September 1954, The American Statesman started a column called "Tri-High Scoop". A student from each high school wrote about the happenings at their school and then it was published in the Sunday paper. Each school had a "catchy" name, Austin was Maroon Musings, McCallum was 'Callum Clues and Travis was Travis Drawl. Enjoy reading about the days when you were at Travis.

Tri-High-School-4
Travis Drawl
By Carol Cotman
November 10, 1957

With a trophy and a victory as their goals, the students of William B. Travis left Friday afternoon on a school trip for a bout with the Temple Wildcats. The trophy in their sights was the one which is presented by the Temple Band to its best opponent band each year during football season.

The Rebel Band and Rebelettes have had this trophy for the past two years and hope to win it a third year, thereby making Rebelland its permanent resting place. Assisting Mr. John Montgomery for these past few weeks in drilling the band and Rebelettes has been Mr. Ray Atkins, who is a practice teacher from the University of Texas.

On the agenda for the Rebel Band this weekend was also a dance, which was held in the school cafeteria Saturday night. Tuesday was the day for taking the band picture for the annual, as well ass the Rebelette, FHA and senior class pictures. Sponsor of the senior class is Miss Mary Campbell.

Senior Y-Teens this year will be presided over by Judie Wood. Adda-Dabba-Powda is the name of the organization for this year, and it has as one of its goals a cake sale on November 23. Other officers are: Nany Pearson, vice-president; Billie Suhr, secretary; Sherry Bernard, treasurer; Myrtis White, sergeant-at-arms; Pat Morgan, program chairman; and Mary Jane Burt, reporter.

Dixie Teens, the junior club, will be led by Diana Nichols this year. Judy Barker is vice-president; Nancy Thomas is secretary; Elaine Toll is treasurer; Dian Macry is sergeant-at-arms; and Judy Ingram is reporter.

Saturday is the day for the Tri-Hi-School Volley meet, which will be held at Austin High School. Representing Travis at this tournament will be Mary Sheppard's team, which won first place at Travis in the play-offs, and Elaine Toll's team, which won second.

Jim Browder, Martha Cain, Ruthann Bray, Pat Gurley, Karen Hampton, Joanne Mallett, Marilyn Preusse and Joy Toungate are the eight members of the sophomore class who reached the ten scholastic record the first six weeks of school. These students made no grade below A-.
