COLLEGE PRESIDENT'S AVELCOME

September is a time for two kinds of welcome to be extended by Mary- ville College: one to old students returning to meet friends and to walk familiar paths; one to new students, many of whom wonder what the place, the people, and the life will be.

I am happy to extend both of these welcomes on this page. May the college year of 1937-1938 become a year of growth for all who live and study near "Chilhowee's lofty moun- tains."

Ralph Waldo Lloyd, President of Maryville College.

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

THE EDITORIAL PREFACE

We of the Editorial Staff take pleasure in doing our part to malce you more fa- miliar with the campus life of Maryville. The Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. pub- lish this book as a part of their activities on the "Hill." Our efforts to give you help are only a manifestation of the Maryville attitude toward freshmen. You will find that upper-classmen are anxious to help you as much as they can. This is but a small part of the spirit of the college which we have learned to love and which we hope you will learn to love.

The information on the following pages has been considered essential to a thorough understanding of the college. For that rea- son we suggest that you read it well. Know- ing a few of these facts will relieve that somewhat lost feeling always felt in a new place.

As we try to help, we remind you that you must do your share of the work, and your share is the largest. The pride we have in calling Maryville our college you will soon understand as you call it your college too.

We wish you as much happiness and suc- cess as you desire in the coming year.

THE EDITORIAL STAFF.

PART I

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO MARYVILLE

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO MARYVILLE COLLEGE

AVhen one has really come to know Mary- ville by experience any words that might be used in describing it seem vain and in- adequate. There is something about Mary- ville that captivates the affection of even the most self-complacent students. One can- not stay at Maryville long without feeling himself affected by that certain something that some have chosen to call the "Mary- ville Spirit." What it is we do not know. We merely know that it exists. So, as we present the general facts about Maryville, we do not claim to introduce you to the real Maryville. You must experience that for yourself.

Maryville College was founded in 1819 by Isaac Anderson to supply the need for an educated ministry for the Southwest. The school continued with a slow, steady growth until the Civil War, which closed the Col- lege for five years. In 1866 the institution was reopened with a very small enrollment which, however, grew very rapidly. The en- rollment, in 1900 was about 400, of whom only 80 were of college rank. Last year 829 students, all of them of college rank, were enrolled.

Through the years the function of the College has changed to suit the varying needs of the people it served. About ten years ago the preparatory department was discontinued and the College became what it is now. a liberal arts college providing a cultural background. Maryville is on the

"M" HANDBOOK 11

approved list of the Association of Ameri- can Universities and offers to the student who will work an education comparable to any to be obtained anywhere in the country.

The city of Maryville ic situated sixteen miles south of Knoxville. Tennessee, in a section of the country rich in historical lore and tradition. It has an elevation of 1,000 feet, and, besides being one of the gateways to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, is quite near the recently completed Norris Dam project of the Tennessee Valley Authority. The population of Maryville is 5,000, with another 5.000 living in Alcoa, a twin community named for the Aluminum Company of America, which operates its largest factory there.

The territory surrounding Maryville offers much in the way of beautiful scenery. From the campus can be seen the heights of the Great Smokies, the Chilhowees, and the Cumberlands, green in spring and often white with snow in winter. You will have opportunity to visit the mountains many times. Various campus organizations spon- sor overnight hikes to these places of in- terest. Plan to take advantage of these opportunities.

As for the campus we would venture to !-ay that there are few more beautiful in the country. A definite program of campus beautification has been in progress during the past three years. Hundreds of small trees and shrubs have been added to the campus; a new circular drive is soon to be completed; and numerous other improve- ments are being made. Included in the campus is an extensive College woods of

MARTVILLE COLLEGE

pine and fir. Here, very near the Collegre botanical gardens, is a huge, natural amphi- theatre in which the beautiful and impres- sive May Day pageant is given each year. Included also on the campus is a nine-hole golf course.

There are twenty buildings on the campus, the principal ones being described in the school catalogue. You will find no diffi- culty in becoming located, however, for within a few days after your arrival you will know them as well as the upper-class- men do.

As from the very beginning of the College Maryville aims to lay positive emphasis on religion and morals. Students are required to attend Sunday school and church. At- tendance at daily chapel services is also re- quired. The College is organically related to the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A., but it is not sectarian in purpose or program, and students attend the church of their own choice. The leading denominations have churches in Maryville. More will be added about the churches on a later page.

There are no social fraternities at Mary- ville and no dancing, as it is not felt that they are necessary or in harmony with the general aims and purposes of the school. Howevei', there will be plenty of social ac- tivity, sponsored by the two "Y's", the Student Council, and various other organiza- tions and clubs. There are four societies, two for men and two for women, each of which presents a short, entertaining pro- gram every Saturday night.

To give an indication of the activities on the "Hill" we will list some of the clubs.

"M" HANDBOOK 13

The vocational clubs, mainly for study and fellowship along particular lines, are: Stu- dent Volunteers, Ministerial Association, Pre-Medical Club, Law Club, Chemistry- Physics Club, and the Language Clubs. Be- sides these clubs there are the various state clubs composed of students from the same section of the country, a Shakespeare Club, and honor societies for athletics, debate, dramatics, and scholarship. More detailed descriptions of some of these clubs will be given later. There are also other clubs not mentioned which will welcome you to their membership as you qualify and feel inclined to join. Club membership is not essential but it always proves helpful and worthwhile. However, don't just be a "joiner." When you join a club support your club.

One of the advantages that everyone who comes to Maryville enjoys is the wide con- tact that is possible within the limits of the campus. Students come from thirty-six states as widely separated as Massachu- setts, Florida, and California. Last year two foreign countries were represented, chiefly by members of missionaries' families. The enlarged vision, the more sympathetic understanding, and the new interests gained by these contacts are among the many values found at Maryville.

A general introduction to Maryville Col- lege would not be complete without a word about sports records and the athletic de- partment. Maryville, last year, won the state wrestling championship for the fifth consecutive year. The "Scotties" also copped the Smoky Mountain Conference titles in basketball, and track. When you come to

14 MARYVILLE COLLEGE

Maryville be a loyal supporter of the Orange and Garnet. The teams will appreciate your encouragement. Football starts the athletic program off at the opening of . school in September, and athletic activity continues throughout the year.

When you arrive in Knoxville, either in the bus or in the train station, look for someone with a Maryville tag. They will be glad to direct you over to Maryville. Then when you arrive on the campus, go to one of the information desks or tables staffed by members of the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. Make yourself known to them and they will direct you to your dormitory. There, other students will help you with your baggage and assist you in finding your room. There will probably be some con- fusion, but it won't take you long to get your bearings.

New students are continually surprised and impressed in finding such a friendly spirit in evidence at Maryville. As a gen- eral thing new students expect to be the under-dogs, but this is not the case at Maryville. There is no hazing or mistreat- ing of the new students. You will find the upper-classmen ready and willing to help you in every possible way. Ask them ques- tions, borrow from them until your trunk arrives they won't mind. It's the Mary- ville spirit. The new girls will be especial- ly taken care of by their "big sisters", arranged for by the Y. W. C. A. As for new fellows you won't be assigned a "big brother," but you will be "big-brothered".

Now that we have given you this general introduction we urge you to come to Mary- ville prepared to make friends and to spend the happiest four years that you have ever experienced.

Y. M. C. A. PRESIDENT'S WELCOME

DEAR FRIEND:

Greetings to you from the Y. M. C. A.! We are looking- forward to your arrival in Maryville, Of course College life is quite different from what you are used to, and you will have many problems during the first days and weeks. We hope you will let us help you with them, whether they be big or little. Each officer and member of the "Y" cabinet is ready to be of service.

College, like many other things in life, will be of greater worth to you if you come with the thought of constantly seeking the best in life, and at the same time of giving your best. And the Y. M. C. A. can help you in all this. We firmly believe in the teachings of Christ as the ideal guide both in our "Y" work and in our personal living. The "Y" programme stresses the four-fold life, and gives special emphasis to the needs that are not filled by other organizations on the campus. We hope you will take part in the activities sponsored by the "Y"— the interclass athletics, the worship services, the hikes, banquets, and other events. First of all is the pow-wow on the Saturday night after school opens.

Please accept this as a personal invita- tion to the "Y" headquarters in Bartlett Hall. And in the meantime, if you have any questions you would like to ask, write me in care of Maryville College.

Sincerely yours. MARVIN MINEAR. Y. M. C. A. President.

\'. M. C. A. ACTIVITY

The Y. M. C. A. endeavors to lead on the campus in every phase of college life. The cabinet is chosen with the end in view of having campus leaders working for the "Y." You will find that the Y. M. C. A. as a whole consists of hard-working, progressive young men with whom you will want to work or have good timies.

The "Y" sponsors interclass athletics in football, basketball, baseball, track, and swimming. Tournaments are also conducted in handball, boxing, wrestling, ping-pong, tennis and badminton.

The semi-annual mountain hikes and ban- quets are naturally among the most popular features of the "Y" program.

In Bartlett Hall the "Y" headquarters will be found the reading and game rooms. Here there is a good radio, current mag- azines, and newspapers. Games including pool, ping-pong, checkers, chess, and domi- noes are here for your entertainment.

The Sunday afternoon meetings in Bartlett Hall are the times when we try to reach decisions on the vital issues of life. These meetings are brief, interesting, instructive, and inspiring. They are featured bj' special music, prominent guest speakers, and student discussions. They are the hub of the "Y" program.

Every year the Y. M. cabinet, along with the Y. W. Cabinet, spends a week-end "Re- treat" in the mountains in order to plan the work of the following year. The motto this year is "Let your light so shine ". Join the "Y" and help us in our work.

•M" HANDBOOK

Y. W. C. A. ACTIVITY

Maryville's Y. W. C. A. has always en- deavored to help girls to find satisfaction and peace in Christian living. Keeping this main aim ever in view, Y. W. has organized such movements as the Nu Gamma Sigma groups, Big Sister movements. Peace Forum, and participation in the East Tennessee In- terracial Commission.

The Sunday afternoon worship services are planned to give inspiration and help. Prob- lems of vital interest to all college girls are presented personal, social, and international problems. Both old and new girls have opportunity to assist in some part of these services, and are greatly benefitted by the actual participation.

Besides the joint activities with the Y. M. C. A., the program of Y. W. includes such activities as semi-annual tennis tournaments, production of the May-Day pageant, social service work in the mission chapels and in the orphanage, and various social activities for its members. The Y, W. rooms are espe- cially well adapted and equipped for group events or individual relaxation and enjoy- ment. All members are invited to use the "Y" rooms.

You will find that the members of the "Y" cabinet, the Nu Gamma leaders and the Big Sisters are sincere, friendly, and willing to help in every way possible. Give Y. W. a chance to be your friend and guide, and join the old members as they follow this year's motto, "Let your light so shine "

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

JOINT ACTIVITIES

Joint Dcvolional Meetings

LTsually the devotional meetings of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. on Sunday afternoons are lield separately, but at vai'i- ous times, joint meetings are held, in the conduct of which both organizations co- operate.

Peace Forum

This organization is sponsored by both the "Y's" in the effort to make students con- scious of world affairs. Through well- informed speakers and informal discussion groups, an attempt is made to educate for peace.

Blue Ritlg:e Conference

Each spring, following commencement, a conference of Southern college Y. M. C. A.'s and Y. W. C. A.'s is held at Blue Ridge. North Carolina. The two organizations on College Hill regularly send delegates to these conferences.

The Artist Series

The Artist Series, sponsored jointly by the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., consists of three numbers each year including musical, literary, or other cultural entertainment. You will want to attend these progranrs, for you pay for them in ^vith your student activities fund, and they are of great inter- est here at Maryville.

Barnvvarniing*

Each year at Thanksgiving the "Y's" put on a barnwarming in the alumni gymnasium. It's a gala affair and so much fun you won't think of missing it.

'M- HANDBOOK

NU GAMMA CHAIRMAN'S AVELf OME

DEAR NEW GIRLS:

May I present to you the old girls who are eagerly looking forward to having you with us next year? Emily Post or no, we must tell you we're glad to meet you. Just how sincerely we mean that you probably won't realize until you join us in saying it to new girls the following year, but we're going to do our best to show you.

Before you leave for school, you should receive a letter from your Nu Gamma leader. Through the small, informal gatherings she leads the first few weeks, you learn the fine points of Maryville custom, talk over your current problems, and become better ac- quainted with at least nine other new girls. Nu Gamma, a branch of Y. W.. was organ- ized primarily for j'our benefit, but our share enters in. too. It gives us an opportunity to know you sooner and to learn what to expect from you. Perhaps, it's just a little selfishly that we invite you to be Nu Gamma girls.

Wherever you are. New Girl, we say, "Welcome to Maryville."

Sincerely yours,

HELEN BOBO, Nu Gamma Chairman.

GENERAL STUDENT ACTIVITY

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

General Student Activity

On the Maryville College campus there are enough organized activities to capture the interest and utilize the ability of every student. To some of these organizations you may belong by merely expressing the desire. Some, however, are run on a selec- tive membership basis, and in still others, such as the honorary fraternities, member- ship is a distinction that comparatively few- attain.

Student Council

The Student Council is composed of eight seniors, six juniors, four sophomores, and four freshmen. This body is not student government, but it represents student opin- ion and works with the faculty in promoting desirable movements. The members are elected by their classes as representing stu- dent sentiment. From the Council two com,- mittees are chosen, the Student-Faculty Committee and the Highland Echo Commit- tee.

NATIONAL HONORARY FRATERNITIES

Pi Kappa Delta

Maryville has the distinction of having the Tennessee Alpha Chapter of the national honorary fraternity Pi Kappa Delta. In the spring of 1937, representatives went to the Provincial Convention at Johnson City. Tenn. In the competition there they achieved high distinction.

"M" HANDBOOK 27

Theta Alpha Phi

Talented dramatic students may. upon meeting certain requirements for member- ship, be initiated into the Tennessee Delta Chapter of the national honorary dramatic fraternity Theta Alpha Phi, located at Maryville.

Sigma Alpha Psi

The Maryville chapter of Sigma Alpha Psi was established in 1930. Membership is open to all men of the college "who maintain sat- isfactory scholarship and command the re- spect of their associates as athletes and gentlemen." Membership Is earned by meet- ing the requirements of the various athletic tests in the presence of a responsible com- mittee. The object of the society is the en- couragement of the moral, physical, and mental development and training among col- lege students.

Local Honorary Fraternity

Alpha Gamma Sigma was organized in the spring of 1934, for the purpose of motivat- ing high scholarship among students. Its requirements are equal to those of Phi Beta Kappa. Ten per cent of the graduating class may be admitted provided the mem- bers have a grade point ratio of 6.5, or somewhat more than a "B" average.

LITERARY SOCIETIES

There are on the Hill two sets of literary societies. Each set consists of a society for boys and one for girls that are known as brother and sister societies. Theta Epsilon

MARTVILLE COLLEGE

and Bainonian are the sister societies, re- spectively, of Alpha Sigma and Athenian.

All four societies hold regular meetings every Saturday night. Each has its respec- tive hall. The meetings held here consist of short business meetings followed by pro- grams of varied sorts in which members of the society are expected to take part when called upon, in advance, by the program sec- retaries. Once a semester each set of so- cieties holds a joint meeting in which boys and girls co-operate on matters of program, decorations, and refreshments.

At the beginning of the year the women's societies sponsor rush weeks to introduce new girls to the members of each society. At the end of the two weeks taken by the rush program new girls are given the op- portunity to join either of the societies. Both groups are glad to receive new mem- bers, and there is a friendly rivalry as to which one can attract the larger number.

Men make their choices as to society membership by visiting regular meetings of each.

There is another form of rivalry among the societies besides that of membership. Each society presents a play during the winter known as its mid-winter. A com- mittee of judges gives a decision as to the relative merits of the plays, and the so- ciety presenting the best play is awarded a silver cup. The society receiving the cup three years in succession is the permanent owner of it. Last year Theta Epsilon re- ceived the cup.

We sincerely hope that each new student will find a place truly his in one of the organizations. Choose the one in which you feel you will be happiest after you have carefully considered each. Each society sends a hearty greeting to every new stu- dent.

MUSICAL. ORGANIZATIONS

The five musical organizations on the campus provide an opportunity to develop musical talent. Three of the organizations are choral and two instrumental.

The three choral organizations are the Vesper Choir, the Maryville Glee Singers, and the Women's Glee Club. The Vesper Choir is composed of nearly fifty mixed voices chosen through try-outs by the choir direc- tor. In robes and surplices it serves at the Sunday evening services, and on week days without the robes leads the daily chapel singing.

The Maryville Glee Singers is a male chorus of twenty-five voices. This chorus gives at least one concert every year. The Women's Glee Club is a similar organization for women, and has for the past three years presented a light opera in cooperation with the men's group.

The two instrumental organizations are the band and orchestra. The orchestra has a concert every year and plays at many other functions. The band is most active during the football season, and lends color and entertainment to the games.

RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS

Besides Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. there are three other outstanding religious activities. The Ministerial Association and Student Volunteer Band are organizations for those interested in the ministry and mis- sions respectively. The ministerial group holds weekly meetings, but its most im- portant activity is that embodied in four standing committees which conduct regular preaching and pastoral work in the county prison, the county almshouse, the McGhee

MARTVILLE COLLEGE

Street Chapel, and the country churches in the vicinity of Maryville,

The Student Volunteer group is composed not only of those who have pledged them- selves to the foreign field, but of those who are interested in this form of Christian work. Regular meetings of the group are held Sunday evenings after vespers. Some phase of missionary work is considered, and fre- quently missionaries on furlough provide val- uable and inspiring first hand material.

Another religious activity is the annual series of February meetings. The first series was held in 1877, and they have been held every year since. The object of the February meetings is a deepening of the spiritual life on the campus and a strength- ening of the spiritual attitude conducive to greater seriousness of thought and action. The speaker for the meetings is a. prominent religious leader of the day. chosen long be- forehand with the purpose of the meetings as the objective in selection.

The annual Fred Hope drives conducted by the college are participated in by all stu- dents. Fred Hope, a former Maryville stu- dent, is the superintendent of a mission school in Africa. The funds collected by this drive are used in his work.

There are in Maryville. churches represent- ing the leading denominations. They wel- come the students of the College into their fellowship and strive to serve their various needs. Attend the church of your choice, and enter into the activities offered.

ATHLETICS

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

MARYVII>LE ATHLETIC POLICY

Maryville stands for the well-rounded, well developed college life. For many years the College has realized that one must not only be developed mentally and morally but also physically. As a result of this realization Maryville College holds a high rating among the schools of the southeastern states in re- gards to athletics. Her teams rank high in comparison with colleges of similar size throughout the country. Besides having inter-collegiate athletics the Y. M. C. A. conducts a well-developed, highly organized system of intra-mural athletics for men, and under the leadership of Mrs. Verton M. Queener, coach of women's athletics the women have, what is known as, the point system. Both of these programs will be more fully described later.

Maryville is the largest institution in the Smoky Mountain Conference which is com- posed of ten colleges and universities in East Tennessee and West North Carolina. Although it is not one of the best known or largest conferences in the country, few conferences have such a high reputation for honest and clean sports activity that the Smoky Mountain Conference has. Hardly a year passes by that does not find Maryville at the top of the conference heap in one sport or another. Only twice in sixteen j^ears has Maryville failed to win the conference championship in baseball. During the past year Maryville was runner-up in the con- ference in track, and basketball. For the sixth consecutive year Coach Bob Thrower led his "Scottie" wrestlers to the Tennessee state wrestling crown. In past years con-_ ference titles have been won in football and tennis. Besides the numerous titles that are won from year to year there has come to Maryville the reputation for clean and fair playing.

Maryville does not buy her athletes. It is not deemed wise to commercialize or over- emphasize the athletic feature of the College

"M" HANDBOOK

in such a way for then the Maryville ath- letic reputation of clean and fair playing would be lost. Those who come to Mary- ville enter whole-heartedly into the athletic program of the College in an effort to win prestige both for the college and themselves. Places on Maryville teams are won by having physical, and average scholastic ability. And to have athletic ability is not enough for a Maryville College student to be pop- ular. He must be well-rounded in all phases of his college life in order to be well liked by his fellow students.

The men's athletic program is under the direction of Head Coach Lombe S. Honaker. assisted by Coaches Bob Thrower and George F. Fischbach. Their reputation is known throughout the Smoky Mountain Conference and the Southern states because of the cal- ibre and fighting spirit of the fine teams that they produce. Each of these three coaches is willing and waiting to try to develop your athletic ability in his particular sport.

For several years Maryville teams have been on the schedules of much larger col- leges and universities. Although she seldom succeeds in defeating these opponests she gains experience that is invaluable through- out the remainder of that season and in the following years. And what is more than that the spectators at these games, or matches, or meets, are always impressed by the "Scottie" fighting spirit and the clean ^nd fair playing of Maryville participants.

If you have any ability at all, as you come to Maryville decide to try out for at least one of the varsity sports. Perhaps you have never fully realized your athletic abilities. Athletes are being developed and even some are made at Maryville each year. And if you can't, for some reason or the other, try out for the varsity or intra-mural sports, give your local support to those who do try out for them. After all, the Maryville spirit is what you and the other students make it. Whether it be on the field or in the stands show your sportsmanship by being a loj'al "Scottie."

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

VARSITY SPORTS

Football

On some Friday night vei'y soon after the opening of the academic year, the flood lights of Wilson Field will be turned on, the "boys" will be out there on the field passing and kicking the ball around, the campus will be crowded with excited students and town people, the band will strike up one of the old pep tunes, inaugurating the begin- ning of another football season at Maryville college. But this season will somehow be different because you will be there. From the opening kick-off of the first game until the final whistle of the last game of the season on Thanksgiving Day. there will be plenty of action and excitement on Wilson Field.

Coaches Honaker and Thrower begin foot- ball practice about two weeks before college starts and with the coming of new men the squad gradually rounds into shape for the opening game with the University of Chat- tanooga at Chattanooga. About fifty men enter into competition each year for varsity positions. The eleven positions are all open. If you have the ambition and the ability, one of them may be yours before the season is over. Report as soon after you come to school as possible. Put everything you have into making the varsity, but don't get dis- couraged if you fail to make it. The coaches will still have a personal interest in you even though you remain a "scrub" for they will want to develop you for the other three years of your stay here.

Make up your mind to get out there and show the coaches and the rest of the squad what you have. Play squarely and honestly with them and you will find that they will do the same with you.

'M" HANDBOOK

Basketball

Basketball is one of the sports which really holds the interest of the sports en- thusiasts throughout the winter months. Last season, for the first time in several years, Maryville lost the Conference crown to Carson-Newman, "the rival," in two hard fought games. Maryville dropped them both, one by one point, the other by three.

This sport comes under the direction of Coach Lombe S. Honaker, who "knows his basketball." During the closing days of football season the call is issued, and until the end of the football season the captain of the team conducts the workouts. After Coach Honaker comes out, the squad is gradually cut down to about twenty men and then the real preparation for the production of a smooth, well-balanced quintet is begun in earnest. A long schedule with various independent and college teams is then begun which continues on into March before the season is finally ended.

Although five of the seven lettermen will probably return from last year's squad there will still be plenty of places left open for you if you have the ability. There will be plenty of room for improvement. Let us see you out to make that basketball varsity.

Baseball

Again, in the 1937 season, the Maryville baseball team won the Conference champion- ship. Only twice in the past sixteen years has the Highlander team failed to win this title. This is a record that Maryville stu- dents may well be proud of, but there is still an indication that the team can be improved over the past year's team.

Here is a sport that Maryville is known to produce good teams in, not only through- out the South but also in such northern states as Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana. Base-

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

ball also comes under the able tutelage of Coach Honaker who is considered to be one of the best baseball coaches in this section of the country. Some of the exceptionally good players who have come under his in- fluence have gone up to the big leagues to make good. Scouts are always on the watch to see what "Honaker has at Maryville." If you have any leaning towards baseball Coach Honaker wants you for he must needs have good material for his championship teams of the future.

Track and Field

Maryville is widely known as the homing place for strong track teams. Although the past season was greatly hampered and handicapped by the loss of the ace runner of the team early in the season, the "Scot- ties" were the runners-up in the conference meet and placed third in the state meet against such competition as the University of Tennessee, Sewanee, etc.

One of the key reasons for the Highlanders exceptional track teams is the coaching of Bob Thrower. Coach Bob's record for the shot put, established when he was a student in college, has not been broken and it is the oldest of the existing college records held by one person.

Track practice begins about the middle of March and it continues until about the first or second week in May. Among the six or more meets, is the state track and field meet and the Smoky Mountain Conference meet.

You may show your ability in any one or more of the track and field events. Take a look at those college records, which are listed on a later page, and then drive at some of them! Perhaps you feel that you can already beat some of them. If so re- port for the track team for Coach Bob will be able to use you.

'M" HANDBOOK

MINOR VARSITY SPORTS

Wrestling

As has already been stated, Maryville won the state title in wrestling- for the sixth con- secutive year last season. The only defeat of the year came from a strong North Car- olina team, that of Davidson. Under the g-uidance of Coach Thrower the college grapplers have built up an enviable record. Each year Coach Thrower takes untrained, inexperienced men and develops them into first class wrestlers. You are bound to fit into one of the eight weight class divisions. Come out to help Maryville win another state championship.

Swimming

Maryville is rapidly developing-, under the leadership of Coach Georg-e F. Fischbach. one of the strongest swimming teams in the South. Every year meets are held with such teams as Auburn. Emory University, University of Kentucky and University of Tennessee. Other meets are scheduled with conference and non-conference teams. Al- though the past season wasn't as perfect as it could be the team usually gets better year by year and there are the college records to aim at. During the past season seven college records were broken by the swimmers. That shows what you can do if you are a swimmer!

Tennis

Here is another sport that is developing under the fine coaching of George Fischbach. Throughout the spring several matches are held each week, unless they are rained out. Trips are taken up into Kentucky and all through Tennessee. During- the past season several four-day trips were taken and many trips of a smaller duration of time. Almost

42 MARTVILLE COLLEGE

all of the lettermen are returning next sea- son but this shouldn't discourage anyone for last season two of the first three ranking men were freshmen and several more fresh- men were on the squad. The college has only nine courts and these are usually filled in the early fall and spring months, so if you want to do . anything with tennis you better get out there quick.

Cross-Country

Because this sport comes in the fall during football season, it is not under the official guidance of any one of the coaches but one of the runners is usually captain and coach. Interest in cross-country is gradually in- creasing because of the inter-collegiate com- petition and the college cross-country championship. Last year's season was fea- tured by victories over University of Ten- nessee and Lincoln Memorial LTniversity. The cross-country college championship is held each year between the halves of one of the football games. The run is five miles long and the Y. M. C. A. presents the win- ner each year with a cup.

Interclass Sports

A great improvement was made last year in the intra-mural sports program. This program is sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. and includes everything from checkers to football. Some of the other sports included are: tennis, billiards, ping-pong, basketball, swimming, track, baseball, etc. Several of these are conducted not as interclass sports but as tournaments.

This type of athletic competition is rapidly assuming a more important place in the athletic program of the college. Here lies the chance for you who feel that you do not have the time or the ability to go out for the varsity. There is no fear of varsity

competition foi- all members of the squads ai'e ruled out of the sports.

Support your class by entering into inter- class competition! And it won't be your ilass that will derive the most benefit from this participation for it will help to develop you physically, if you go at it in the right way, and you will have a better fellowship with the other members of your class.

LETTERS AND MONOGRAMS

Designs

Football: Garnet sweater bearing garnet letter "M" 8 inches by 8 inches.

Basketball: Garnet sweater bearing garnet letter "M" 6 inches by 6 inches.

Baseball: Garnet sweater- beaming garnet letter "M" 7 inches by 7 inches.

Trade: Garnet SAveater bearing garnet let- ter "M" with wings, 5-inch block.

Wrestling: Letter "M". 5 inches by 5 inches.

Tennis: Letter "M", 5 inches by 5 inches.

Swimming: Letter "M", 5 inches by 5 inches.

The letter for women's athletics is more decorative in form and the monos'-am con- sists of the letters "M" and "C" super- imposed upon each other.

THE WEARING OF MARYVILLE LETTERS

Maryville letters and sweaters are to be worn only by those who have won them in one of the sports. Those winning letters will be so designated by the coaches. Any violation of this rule is frowned upon by the students and faculty alike. Any loyal "Scottie'' would never wear a letter unless he or she had won it.

Any letter or monogram from any other school, whether it be high school or college,

MARYVILLE COLLEGE

may not be worn Avhile you are at Mary- ville. This rule has been violated several times. Maryville has no way of enforcing such a rule except by the will of the stu- dents. We hope your school spirit and loy- alty will not allow you to break such a rule. So leave all other letters and monograms at home and come to Maryville with the idea of having a. garnet "M" on your sweater in the near future.

WOMEN'S ATHLETICS

Point System of Athletic Awards

Since the intercollegiate contests have been dispensed with, the point system has been adopted. Women are given an oppor- tunity to participate in every sport, and a chance to win the monogram, the small let- ter, or the large letter and sweater. By qualifying for basketball, soccer, indoor baseball, and speed ball teams a girl may win 30 points for each team. Additional points are awarded for sportsmanship, mem- bership on a squad, captain or manager of a team, and perfect attendance. In swimming, track, tennis, hiking, and aerial dart tour- naments, 50 points each may be won. High scholarship adds a certain per cent to the total of points won. The observance of health rules may total 25 points for each semester. In these activities sportsmanship is stressed as well as skill.

Honors are awarded as follows: 300 points, Maryville Monogram (MC) ; 400 points, Maryville "M" ; 500 points, Maryville "M" with sweater.

Maryville College

MARYVILLE, TENNESSEE

One Hundred and Nineteenth Year Beg-ins September 15, 1937

Marj ville Collegre is one of the im- portant church-relate<l instituti.ins of America, and seeks to be true to the noblest traditions of the association of education and relig-ion. Its Direc- tors are elected by the Synod of Ten- nessee of tlie Presbyterian Cliurch in the U. S. A.

It is a Cliristian liberal-arts col- lege with the purpose of providing a general cultural education. It is not a professional or pre-professional school, although its courses form sound foundational preparation for professional study.

Its fees are deliberately kept at a low figure for the benefit of those who might not be able to attend otherwise. This makes earnest co- operation on the part of all an es- sential factor.

It desires to select its students on the basis of preparation, earnestness, capacity, character, and co-opera- tiveness.
