Soon after 1928 Monahans began to feel the beginning of the oil boom that came to Ward County in the ensuing years. Bert Morris, another employee of the T&NM Railroad, gives us another insight on these developments as he rode the line:

"After the depression I went to work on the Texas and New Mexico. Things had begun to pick up somewhat. In fact, it was not unusual for us to bring in from 100 to 150 cars from Lovington and put them in the yard here in Monahans. Very seldom we worked under sixteen hours a day. There was a lot of building going on up that way and a lot of oil being shipped out. A little extra boom came along, and the T&P built a bunch of these loading racks and shipped the oil by rail. That was about the time the Permian Basin was being drilled. The Keystone was about the hottest spot about that time. It seems like I remember that you could get up on top of that train at night and you could see nothing but a string of lights on the oil rigs all the way from Eunice to Crane. It was just something else, that's all. Then the T&P was really on a boom. The New Mexico oil was shipped in by car and at that time they had seven "dodgers" running out of Monahans. They would take as many cars as they could take up Duoro hill (in Ector County), put them in the yard there, and come back and get another load. From Duoro hill, one engine could pull as many as two engines could pull up the hill. This lasted until the oil companies got their pipe lines completed. Mr. Fred Gipson was the agent for the T&P at that time."

Burt Morris: "On December 31, 1927, there were four pipelines being built in and around Monahans. Thirty-five men spent the night in the cafe because there were no beds anywhere. Some just laid their heads on the counter, to be roused at 5 o'clock in the morning when the cafe opened. Shell was getting ready to build the Million Barrel Tank." (He was night cashier for his step-father, J. I. Rogers. The cafe was located in a building owned by W. M. Casey.)

In 1930 he lived in Monahans, Ward, Texas, with wife, Verdia and son, William C. He was 23 years old, she was 22, and their son was 1. His occupation was Truck Driver for Shell Pipeline Co.

Occupation: High school band Director for 20 years.
The earliest records of a high school band in Monahans, Texas, are of the 1928 group which was organized by Earl (Rosey) Ray. It had 18 or 20 members. When Mr. Ray moved from Monahans the band crumbled. He also organized the first band in Wink, Texas.

"Earl attended Tarleton State College in Stephenville, TX for two years where he played euphonium in the band. His family moved to Breckenridge, TX where Earl was befriended by the high school band director, Pop Frazier. There was a band director job open at Monahans, TX and they were interested in Earl Ray. Pop Frazier gave him a "crash course" on woodwinds and conducting. In addition, Col. Earl D. Irons and D. O. Wiley helped Earl with literature, teaching techniques, etc. After a year at Monahans, Earl was hired by Wink High School to organize a band. He directed both bands for a year then became the Wink High School band director. Earl took the Wink band to Tulsa, OK in 1931 to the first National Band Contest where he met John Phillip Sousa. In 1935, Earl became the director of the Abilene, KS High School Band. During this tenure, his bands continued to win National Contests and some of his judges included: A. A. Harding, Franko Goldman, Frank Simon, Bill Revelli, and Mark Hindsley. Earl continued his education during the summer months. He studied euphonium with Joseph De Luca, the euphonium soloist with the Sousa Band. Earl earned his bachelor's degree from Texas Tech University and his master's degree from the University of Northern Colorado. In 1942 he became the band director at Highland Park High School in North Dallas. In 1946 he became the Co-Ordinator of Music at Highland Park High School.

In 1954 Earl and LaVerne opened the Earl Ray Music Company in Lubbock, TX where they remained until retirement in 1984. During that time and until his passing in 1995, Earl and LaVerne served as Texas Tech Band bus sponsors for 35 years! LaVerne continues to travel with the "Goin' Band from Raider land". Earl and LaVerne have been honored with many memberships and awards. Scholarships and service awards are named in honor of them by Texas Tech's chapters of Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma. Earl and Laverne had three highly successful careers as band director and supporting spouse, as music store owners, and probably most importantly, advocates of band music and counselors of young band directors. Through their love of bands and support of band activities, they have affectionately touched thousands of lives.
