Alma Mater_, dear old Millsaps,

Loyal sons are we;
Our fond hearts are thine alone

And ever more shall be.
Proud art thou in classic beauty

Of thy noble past;
With thy ivatchword. Honor, Duty,

Thy high fame shall last.

Ev'ry student man and maiden,

Sivell the glad refrain.
Till the breezes, music-laden,

IV aft it back again.
Proud art thou in classic beauty

Of thy noble past;
With thy watchword. Honor, Duty,

Thy high fame shall last.

FOREVER can not he spent in college ivalls — no matter hoiu
pleasant the life fuay be; hut an effort can be made to preserve
in some form a reminder ivhich u'ill last ivitfi life. Some par-
ticular thing can he attempted ivhich, if done ivell, will stand as
the best that can be offered the Alma Mater. In planning this, the

\%Z% SDbaalirla

and in its making, there ivill he otie idea in mind — to give you a
keepsake that you ivill he proud to own. There are going to he many
innovations that will he radical; originality ivill he the predominating
motif; the ai/n will he to make this as truly representative as the
actuality; and through it all will be the feeling that some Token of
Appreciation should be left to the Alma Mater. Neither the serious
nor the frivolous side will be unduly stressed. There will he a
mixture of sedateness and silliness, professors and protesters, flunkers
and flyers, prowlers and preachers, brains and brass, intellectual and
ineffectual. Not too much of the Academic will be represented, nor
too little of the Athletic.

To what extent these ideas and plans will be carried out you will
have to judge for yourself.

^^9^SHh progress of timf makes it necessary to change things. It nvas my
t f idea that Millsaps had so groivn that a different type of annual ivas
needed to properly represent the College.

Much thought luas given to the method of treatment — to tlie proper
distribution of emphasis betiveen the 'uarious sections. The final decision ivas
"to start anew" as it were, to make an annual so radically different from the
accepted idea of annuals that there would be a "howl of protest" from all
sides (that ivas the actual result); and at the same time to build a foundation
upon which mucli progress could be made in the future. This foundation
is the training of various members from the under classes which will be
available for the next Staff.

To treat in proper perspective things so close at hand and to portray
correctly all phases of college activities in the light of actual worth would
tax t/ie ability of the wisest editor. I have given my serious attention to
determining luliat to omit, in the limited space, and to <weigh the importance
of everything going into this volume. There are no apologies offered. The
/Q26 Bobashela is the best Year Book possible under the limitations.

Many students and friends not on the Staff liave unselfishly helped with
this work. I am grateful to each. To the Staff as a whole much credit
is due. To each member appreciation is expressed in proportion to credit
due. It is not my wish to unduly laud any member. However, I would
indeed be ungrateful if I did not give them the praise ivhich they merit.
To Sarah Hester Legg, Associate Editor, I am especially grateful for her
constant and unfailing assistance and inspiration. To Franklin I'aughan,
Art Editor, ivliose invaluable work has made this volume so attractive, my
sincere thanks are given. To his grandmother, Mrs. E. IF. Featherstun, I
am indebted for tw)o excellent drawings. To J. B. Price, Sports Editor,
who at no time failed to do the appointed task, I am grateful. Robert Calhoun,
Junior Editor, must be mentioned as an able assistant and the "goat" for
all outbursts.

IFhen the time comes "that tlie dark of the days that are will be bright-
ened by the light of the days that were," may this volume be reminiscent of
memories that will cheer.

When war shook the earth with threatening shock,
The men of Rlillsaps stood like monuments of rock.

Nor has the breath of Time

Dissolved that proud array

Of never-broken strength :

For though the rocks decay.

And all the iron bands
Of earthly strongholds are unloosed at length.
And buried deep in gray oblivion's sands;

The ivork that heroes' hands
Wrought in the light of freedom's natal day

Shall never fade away.

But lifts itself, sublime

Into a lucid sphere.

Forever calm and clear.
Preserving in the memory of the fathers' deed,
A never-failing fortress for their children's need.
There ive confirm our hearts to-day, and read
On many a stone the signature of fame.
The builder's mark, our Alma Mater's name.

To highest heaven their gladsome flight ;
Though moons are full and stars are bright,

O Though voices clear in joyous strain

Repeat a jubilant refrain;
Though rising suns their radiance throw
On summer's green and ivinter's snoiu.
In such rare splendor that my heart

"Mack," although serious when the occasion
requires it, takes an optimistic view of every-
thing. He deserted us one year for A. and M.,
but Millsaps had so strong an appeal to him
that he returned to complete his college course
with his class.

Historically Speaking

■^^^^^ODAY, May 25, the class of '26 goes out from Millsaps! We have come to
M C^\ the final parting of the ways! We have finished the course, and we trust
^ } that we have "fought the good fight!" That anticipation which began with
^^^ our grammar school days has become a realization, and, although it seems
strange, now that our ambitions have been realized, we find that we are not eager to
leave — we hesitate to break the ties that bind us to our Alma Mater. We are loath
to say goodbye to our friends; we are sad at the thought of not planning for another
year together.

We are glad that we have completed the course required of us; many times we
feared that we would be left behind, and we feel a thrill of pride when we realize that
the goal toward which we have toiled for fifteen years is reached at last — to reside
henceforth in two capital letters placed after the signing of our name.

It is all done, and yet, even now, at the completion of our Senior year, we can hardly
realize that tlie halls of learning will see most of us no more. It seems to us that this
Senior year has been unique. Under the leadership of "Jobie" Harris we have forged
ahead in the highest of spirits. The football season particularly filled us with pride —
and we will ever smile with joy when we say that it was in our year that Millsaps beat
Mississippi College!

We shouldered our responsibilities gaily and we will long remember the pleasant
work on the Bobashela imder Combs, with Swayze holding the money-bags. It has
been a good year for us — we feel — though we wish we might have done more for our
college.

Was it only last year that we were Juniors! Freed from the cares and responsibilities
of Seniordoni, it seems to us now that we must have romped the year away.

We started in by electing Bealle for our president, and then it seems that we went
right into making paper flowers for our big parade preceding our football game at the
Fair. The parade was the best ever. We had beautiful floats, lovely noise, and all the
co-eds garbed in white. We didn't agree with the judges when they gave the prize to
another school. However, we soon cheered up. We came back from the holidays with
a "pass or die" attitude toward exams — and most of us passed. April Fool is "clean-up"
day on our campus, and we got under way bright and early. We helped Mrs. Wilson
plant flowers, some even plowed, we built walks, cleaned the tennis courts, and painted
benches — to say nothing of clearing off the golf course. It was a great day — especially
the "feed," and the athletic contests in the afternoon. Exams came at the end, and we
eyed the Seniors with jealous feelings when we realized that they wouldn't have exams
any more.

Our Sophomore year passed in a sort of happy haze. The glory of knowing "every-
thing" fairly shone from our faces — and what a life we led the freshies! The days
were long and full of fun, it was enough just to be alive and to be Sophomores. We
"crammed" just before exams, and almost gave up over Chemistry, but we bobbed up
again and went on our way. That was the year (speak it in a whisper) that we shaved
the heads of the Freshmen. Yes, we "caught it" too — but the Fresh were the worst
looking things — it wasn't so bad, taking it all in all.

It's so hard to remember back in that long ago when we were Freshmen. It really
doesn't seem possible that we were ever that young, and childish, and green, but memory
tells us that we were — just as verdant as any class ever was. It was all so strange at
first — we had to grow accustomed to the freedom of it all, and we reveled, and the
Grill grew rich, in our "ofif" hours — which were blissfully free from anj' studious pur-
suit. We were "petrified" over those first exams, and we studied far into the night, and
resolved that next term we'd study from the very first. It was after the holidays that
we were favored with the loveliest snow Jackson had seen in years, with sleet to crown
it all. The campus was a veritable fairyland, and the novelty and the sport of it fairly
took us off our feet. With hastily improvised sleds we explored the campus and found
delightful little hills, of whose very existence we had been unaware. The steps on the
north side of the building were a smooth slide of ice from which we were reluctantly
dragged inside to work logarithms.

When Spring came, and we realized that we were Freshmen no more, our joy knew
no bounds — we felt that we had grown up at last.

And so. Alma Mater, we will always feel that we have "grown up" in you. It is
you who have fostered in us those ideals of Honor and Duty — you who have taught us
to work, and to play, and to have courage, and if, in after life, we do praise-worthy
deeds, we will always remember that it was you, who gave us the Vision.

It is hard for us to leave, but in leaving we part only from the material brick and
stone of your buildings, from the sound of the words of cheer of your faculty, and from
the actual sight of your green trees. The memory of these things will remain in our
hearts forever; and always will we cherish in the depths of us the Love and Pride which
you. Alma Mater, have instilled into us!

Norma Caldwell, '26.

2 An Admonition to tke - Hoi Polloi

'S POTENTIAL Seniors, you have many delicious experiences in store for you, my
friends. You will tremble with delight when you hear of them. Already have you
become acquainted with the possibilities of a restful little nap with Doctor Walker;
already have you learned what a veritable incubator of original ideas concerning broad-
mindedness and unconventionality is that egg-man who paints his Willys-Knight every morning
before Breakfast (he's the One you'll remember who made that wise Crack about the impos- §

sibility of using horses in the Drama during Shakespeare's time because the stage was just a
little unstable) ; but, mes enfants, you are yet to learn the glories of hero-worship! Little do you
realize what great men there are in the world, and right close around you, too!

Then, did you know that you can't always rely on what you learn at your Mother's knee?
Ah! When you take the seats we vacate, you will be instructed by our logical philosopher that
this is a profound fact. Why, Lee Hong Chong believed what his mother taught him on her knee,
and where is he today? Plow your soil, sons of Millsaps, before you sit at the feet of this man and
expect him to sow seeds of knowledge in your midst. And for the sake of the honor of your Alma
Mater, be courteous and considerate of others; never, never by any means should you open a
window when there is someone in the room with an overcoat on, trying to keep warm.

Have you become thoroughly familiar with Raymond, "the little boy over at our place?" If
not, by all means make Red Hkrrel sign you up for Psychology next year, otherwise, the diploma
which you may receive at the close of your course will be a worthless scrap of parchment.

Speaking of Red: Are you aware that Betelgeuze is a fixed star of the first magnitude with a
diameter of two hundred and sixty million miles? Boys, take Astronomy and go over on the hill
and break your necks learning such facts as these. They are Invaluable, ^'ou'll learn, in due
time, to convert siderial time into mean time (if you live long enough).

Countless trite platitudes will be handed out to you. Hitherto, you have been forced to
swallow what's been given you, like the proverbial little bird, but no^v remember, soon you will be
Seniors, your eyes are supposed to be gradually opening. Therefore, we, the departing victims of
this awful regime, earnestly and unanimously admonish you to look at what's being handed you ;
examine it closely; is it questionable? Ask yourself: "Will this induct me into the great society?
Does this have a vital relation to any of the six great human interests?"

Now that our admirable legislature has put the ban on the monkeys, it wouldn't do any good
for Doctor Walker to establish his vocational training for teachers, because you couldn't teach
Evolution anyhow. Hereafter, we must guard carefully our thoughts or we will be so walled in
by legislation, that we will be forced to go out of the state in order to think.

We are now leaving our dear old Millsaps. Yours will be the standard to hold, and may you
hold it high! Let not its trusty colors drag the dirty earth. Carry on! Carry on!

Our departure is indeed a sad one! We want to stay but we have to go. It is like unto the
flock of sheep which blindly hurl themselves over the precipice, those behind push the others on and
they have to leap. The swarms of Freshies crowd the Sophs, the Sophs crowd the Juniors, and
you all pushed us over! But you'll get yours by and by.

Postscript.

By an oversight I neglected to mention a fact which will, no doubt, give you joy. No longer
need you fear of being shot at sunrise without praying for a rainy spell. The Dean hates to stay
here with all the Seniors of '26 gone, so she is leaving with us. We trust that peace and quiet will
again reign tran<iuil over the old campus grounds.

Tke All-One Club

There are many students who make high grades in their "hobli\" subjects; but there are few
who consistently make high grrades in all subjects. In this group each student has done consistent
and efficient work in all subjects, both liked and disliked. At the present time there is no regular
organization; but rather a group into which each student, who does good work, is automatically
placed. There is a real need for the organization of this group into a club whose purpose will be
to raise the general literary efficiency of the college.

At times the Science Club was little more than a name. When Joe Price was elected President
it was due to start on the up-grade. That has been true. The purpose of the club is to give the
students, who are interested in the sciences, an opportunity to come together and study the relation
between science and everyday life, in a somewhat different way from the regular class-room
routine.

College Band

There had been riiinnrs of a college hand for ages — hut in the Fall of 1925, when the pande-
monium broke loose in Burton Hall, the wise ones nodded and said, "We've got a band." Later
in the year, the student body came through with enough cash to pay for the instruments and to
help pay a full-time director.

It is still more or less in the embryonic stage, but with Roger Philp as Director and the interest
of the individual members holding on, we will soon have the sort of band that Millsaps should
have.

T. B. IloLLOMAx Secretary

Another long step in the devlopment of Student Government at Millsaps College was taken in
the Fall of 1925, ^vhen a Student Council was organized to take care of the non-athletic activities
of the Col'ege.

Up until this time, the president of the Boys' Athletic Association hail acted as the ex-ofhcio
president of the student body; and with the help of the Athletic Council had performed all the
duties that belong to a regular Student Council. Under the old style of student government the
co-eds of the institution did not enjoy the rights of suffrage; and when the women began voting in
all other kinds of elections, in order to prevent a heated controversy, the eds of the institution
decided to franchise the co-eds. There is another reason why the girls should vote, just as conviiic-
ing as the universality of Woman Suffrage, and that is that they make up a large per cent of the
student body, and contribute their share towards the upkeep of the Student activities.

Of course, as it is to be expected, the organization in its infancy has not assinned all the
duties that \vill eventually be under its supervision; but even with just the establishment of the
Council something \vas accomplished that will have a far-reaching effect on the future histor\ of
Millsaps College. This organization when it begins to function as it should, will do more than
anything else to bring about an understanding between the members of the various factions which
work against each other in the school politics. It should act as the go-between of the student body
and the faculty, thereby helping to smooth over matters that would otherwise cause trouble.

Tne New Eta Sigma

In former years the Eta Sigma and the All-One Club were the same. In the
fall of 1925, J. C. Satterfield conceived the idea of making them different. Pins
were designed, ordered and adopted. The above members were organized into the
Eta Sigma, taking the old name of the All-One Club. To be a member of the Eta
Sigma, one must, among other things, be on the all one list for two terms. Eta Sigma
under the capable leadership of J. C. Satterfield, is now taking its place among the
other organized groups at Millsaps.

The Athletic Association

Since the Methodist Conference lifted the ban on intercollegiate athletics for Millsaps College,
the Athletic Association has been the most active organization at this institution. At the present
time its active membership includes all the male matriculates of the College. The Girls' Athletic
Association is an outgrowth of this organization, and it was only this year, with the election
of a Student Council, that the business of the student body at large, other than athletic affairs,
passed from under the control of the Athletic Association.

One of the most important reasons why athletic activities are indulged in is because it is
one of the best methods by which to teach the individual fair play and self-control. This worthy
purpose is rather ingeniously expressed in the motto of the Association, "B^." A condensed motto,
but it includes all that could be written in a whole volume.

Millsaps College, from the very beginning of her existence, has always maintained a place
of leadership, among the other institutions of higher learning in Mississippi, in the realm of

literary activities. With the smallest student body in the Big Four, her advancement in the
world of sportdom has not been so rapid ; and it is nothing but desirable that it has been in
this way, because when athletics gain the first place of consideration in the life of an institution,
the benefits of the system are lost and it becomes a curse.

It has been said that Millsaps College has not advanced so rapidly in athletic achievement,
and it is true ; but this stage of advancement has been gradual, and it has been going on long
enough to make itself felt. Our baseball teams have held the Southern Intercollegiate Cham-
pionship more than one year in succession; and last season, for the first time after the intro-
duction of football, five years ago, our deadly rivals, the Mississippi College Choctaws, went
down in defeat before the fighting Major eleven. As a result of that season's playing, the
Majors tied with the teams of three other institutions for S. I. A. A. honors.

With the growing importance of football, baseball, basketball, and track are receiving less
and less attention. This decline on our part is to be regretted, for it seems that the other insti-
tutions of the South are keeping these sports up to the usual standard of perfection. Perhaps the
main reason is that the Millsaps student body is not large enough to furnish material for more
than one major sport. Be that as it may, it is the concensus of opinion that Millsaps College
always has good material for the other major sports, and the reason why nothing comes of it is
because it is poorly handled. It is practically impossible for one man to successfully coach the
whole athletic program and teach some classes during his space time. The thing that is needed
more than anything else is a graduate coaching staff, a man to assist the head coach with ever}'
sport. One step towards the realization of this goal was taken when Mr. Ormond Van Hook
was elected to coach the freshmen and to assist with baseball.

Another worth-while achievement of the Athletic Association of last year was the intro-
duction of intermural sports. If the true purpose of athletics is to be accomplished, all of the
students must have the benefit of the training. The typical American practice of picking the
most robust physiques, and of giving them all the training is the wrong idea, as it tends to com-
mercialize the sports. The reason why athletics should be taught with other essential things, is not
because the institution needs to build a reputation through the prowess of athletic teams, but for
the reason the students need the physical education. The method used by the English universities
in maintaining athletic instruction for all, is by far a better plan than the one used in the
United States. Millsaps College is gradually bringing about the proper reforms, and providing
the facilities for the carrying out of that purpose; the new stadium, the introduction of inter-
mural sports, and the construction of a golf course will all bear fruit.

It will ameliorate the condition if other sports were provided for those students ^^ho want to
participate in them ; for instance, wrestling, boxing, and swimming. The equipment for the
last-named sports, with the exception of swimming, could be obtained very cheaply, and it would
not cost a mint to dig an artificial lake or construct a swimming pool.

It is to be hoped that in the future development of athletics at this institution, more students
will have an opporunity to get the training so necessary to their physical growth. At the same
time, may athletic sports continue to be subordinated to the academic courses of the College.
If all of this happens, it will be true indeed that, "Millsaps Makes Men."

The Co-ed Athletic Association

\^'hat the Co-eds have contributed to Millsaps College in the realm of athletics is of a two-
fold nature: that which they have (lone alone, and that which they have helped the "Eds" to do.

Onlv three years after girls' basketball became a part of the Millsaps athletic program, the
Co-eds tied with the three older and larger institutions for the state championship. In 1922, the
first year in the history of the Co-ed Athletic Association, a small number of inexperienced girls
raised enough money, among themselves, to buy a ball; and without the supervision of a coach,
organized a team and played several games. As far as victories are concerned, this first season
of endeavor was an overwhelming disaster for the Co-eds. Every team they played had little
difficulty in running up scores, which were unbelieveably high, but after all, the Majorettes
gained more and better experience in defeat than they would have gained in victory.

At the beginning of the 1923 season, the faculty employed Miss Dickerson, a resident of
Jackson, to spend part of her time in the supervision of Co-ed athletics. The team, much im-
proved by one year of experience, surprised everybody by defeating the Co-eds from Clarke
Memorial College, the first game of the season. Grenada College came down to this institution
over-confident, and the Majorettes romped to a decisive victory, which gave cause for a rise in
the estimation of the outside world for Millsaps Co-ed athletics.

Mrs. Calvin Barbour coached the team in 1925, and she deserves a generous amount of the
credit for the successful record of that season. The Ole Miss Co-eds, Mississippi Woman's
College, and Mississippi Teachers' College all met the Millsaps Co-eds, but thev were unable
to do more than split their respective series.

In 1926 the Majorettes won twelve of the thirteen games played, and piled up a total score
of 568 to their opponents' 169. The only defeat was at the hands of the Ole Miss Co-eds, and
it was a pre-season game. The Mississippi Woman's College Wildcats, heretofore undefeated

on their own court, were easy prey for the Co-ed Majors in Hattiesburg; and when the team
came up here to repay the visit, the performance was repeated. Rgardless of the mix-up caused
by the Ole Misses' refusal to play the regular scheduled game, a majority of the sport writers
believe that the Majorettes had more than an even chance, and, therefore, were deserving of the
championship title.

What has been said is an account of what the Co-eds have accomplished alone; but that is
not the whole story, because they have probably done more for the institution by whole-heartedly
supporting the boys in their athletic endeavors. When the girls first came to Millsaps as students,
the boys made an agreement among themselves not even speak to them, unless on occasions
of absolute necessity (you didn't know that, did you?) ; but now the situation has changed;
the Co-eds long ago conquered the aversion of the boys and now they are taking the lead in
a goodly number of the college activities. When the Major teams go on the field, or in the
gym, the girls' cheering section is the first one to start singing the "Alma Mater." In 1924, when
the Millsaps float, in one of the state fair parades, attracted the admiring comment of so many
spectators, it was the Co-eds who deserved the praise; it was their dexterous fingers which con-
structed the thousands of purple and white chrysanthemums which covered the automobile truck.

Very often it has happened that football games have been played on days when it rained.
Of course, the team is obliged to go ahead and play in spite of the inclement weather, but not
until a very recent date in the history of the college has the school spirit been strong enough to
force the spectators to brave the fury of the elements in order to give the best support. It is
a significant fact that our sisters have proved a willingness to stay in the unsheltered bleachers
as long as anyone else; and the example they set is one cause of the revival of school spirit.

When the Girls' Athletic Association was first organized, basketball was the onlv sport on
the program, and as a consequence, only those girls who tried to make the team were directlv
benefited. Now, however, since the completion of a nine-hole golf course, and the introduction
of tennis and volley ball, more Co-eds are able to participate in athletic sports. This development
is very encouraging, and it shows that this institution is breaking away from that undesirable,
typically American tradition of the specialization in a few major sports. If athletics are to
serve the purpose for which they are fostered, and not become a curse to the institution, more
students must be allowed to participate.

If this process of evolution continues with the same acceleration, the Co-eds will soon be the
permanent basketball champions of the State of Mississippi, and they will vie with the boys for
the place of leadership in the institution.

Tie for Ckampionsliip in 1925 — Won It in 1926

X the spririK of 192n, the Majorettes tied with the Ole Miss Co-eds, Grnnada. and Mississippi
Woman's College for the state championship. That is a record to be proud of, but it is
not nearly so remarkable as the accomplishments of the 1926 season. The star forwards.
Elizabeth Setzler and Elise McCallum, were the only members ot the 1925 team who were
available for 192K; but Coach Stephen.'; found some good material and developed a team that

• out uf thirteen games, as well as the unquestionable right to be called State Champions.

Grenada College, io; Majorettes, 20

The first game of the season and played on the Grenada court, but even that early, before
Christmas, 1925, the Millsaps Co-eds demonstrated a remarkable brand of team work.

5 Ole Miss Co-eds, 28; Majorettes, id o

The first and the onl.v defeat ot the season. Because of a very unessential technicality, Ole MLss
forfeited the championship to the Majorettes, by refusing to play the regular scheduled game.

Belhaven College, 10; Majorettes, 47

The team from our sister institution played a fast game, but it could not solve the lightning-like
pass work of the Co-ed Majors.

Hinds County Junior College, i ; ^^Iajorettes, 57

It looks incredible, but the figures speak for themselves.

Clarke College, 12; Majorettes, 52

A game that the spectators enjoyed, in sitite of the overwhi'lmingly one-sided score. The forwards
performed as usual. Mrs. Teague and Helen Newell always got th tip-off, and the guards did their
duty to the fullest extent.

Mississippi Woman's -College, 22; Majorettes, 31

Basketball enthusiasts of Hattiesburg said that it was the greatest demonstration of team work
ever seen in that city. Elizabeth Setzler scored 19 points, and Elise McCallum, in spite of a sprained
ankle, was responsible for 12 more. The whole team worked like a well-oiled machine to give the
Wildcats the first defeat on their home court in three years.

Belhaven, 4; Majorettes, 84

For "long distance" scoring, the most outstanding game of the 192ii season.

Delta Teachers, 14; Majorettes, 21

In many respects this was the hardest game of the season, and it is a significant fact that onl.v
one member of the team was in perfect trim; the others were suffering with light attacks of influenza.
Handicapped as they were, however, they made up for physical strength with mental determination,
and with the moral suitv>ort of the cheering Eds, won another victory for the .\ln\a Mater.

Hinds County Junior College, 16; Majorettes, 52

This game was an improvement over the first one, but the Ilayniond team was still unable to make
things interesting.

Whitworth, g; Majorettes, 57

The I'o-eds wi'Ut all the way to Brookhaven for this game, and that is all the opposition they
got for the trouble.

MississiPi>i Woman's College, 13; Majorettes, 23

A bunch ot Choctaws from Mis.sissippi College cheered for their sisters, the Wildcats, but the
Millsaps Eds sang the Alma Mater, and the Majorettes romped to an overwhelming victory. The
visitors were good sports, and they played a good game, and if the contest had ended with tlu'

first half they would have been victors by one point; however, the Co-eds were able to carry on y

to the cnil and win another game. 0

Whitworth, 24; Majorettes, 53

The team from that institution lamc up to Jackson for a return game with the Majorettes and,
much to the surprise ot everyone, including themselves, they did better away from home.

Hinds County Junior College, 9; Majorettes, 62

This game, the last one of the season, was played on the Mississippi College court at I'linton.
Elizabeth Setzler and Elise McCalluiTi were the ones who did the scoring, and although tluy are
small in stature, they moved like greased lightning. The work of Mrs. Teague and Helen Newell in
center was of a sensational nature, and they were directly to blame for the low scores of the
opponents, Linnie Lingle and Ruth Cgnerly would make the guard positions on any all-state team.

MiLLSAPs Won From Clarke-Memorial on Muddy Field
Majors, 6; Clarke Panthers, o

As in former years, the Majors began the season with Clarke-Memorial College. On the
twenty-ninth of September, the game was played during the short intervals between heavy
showers. Mud and water were ankle deep, therefore, the most outstanding feature of the game
was the consistent fumbling of both teams. Major Leroy Brooks recovered a fumble on the
Panthers four-yard line, and scored the only touchdown of the game.

Maroon Bulldogs Too Strong For Majors
Majors, o; Maroons, 34

A whole train load of loyal, but heart-broken, Millsaps students looked on while the heavier
and much more powerful Aggie team ran riot over the Majors, to the tune of 34 to o. The team,
as a whole, did not work like the well-oiled machine of the Aggies, although several individual
Millsaps players showed up better than any of their opponents. In the fourth quarter, Francis
received the ball from kick-off, and made the sensational run of the game. Probably the next
important thing to the playing ability of the Maroon Bulldogs, as a good reason for the over-
whelming defeat, was the exhausted condition of the Majors when they went on the field, they
having made the tiresome trip from Jackson to Starkville the morning before the game.

Louisiana Wildcats Were Easy Prey
Majors, 27 ; Wildcats, o

O In the battle with the Louisiana Wildcats, October lo, the Majors piled up a score and

" demonstrated an offensive drive that was soinething new to Millsaps football. While the

Purple and ^^'hite line held "like a stone wall," the backfield went through, over, and around
the clawing Wildcats to win, for the Alma Mater, the first Association game of the season.
The Majors were unable to score in the first quarter, but earh' in the second period, Francis
went through the line for a touchdown after the ball had been brought down the field bv everv
conceivable method of football procedure. Oaines Crawford was responsible for touchdown
number two, which came in the first part of the second half. Chalfant and Bealle, with the
cooperation of their team mates, crossed the goal line two more times in the last quarter. Another
thing which will stand out in the memory of those who saw the game was the sensational
defense work of Charles Henley, Clyde Atkins, and Leroy Brooks.

_ Millsaps Crushed Louisiana Tech

g Majors, 13; L. P. L, 2

The Millsaps Majors went to Ruston, October 17, and won the second Association game of
the 1925 season, by defeating the Louisiana Polytechnic Institute. The first touchdown came in
the first quarter, after a series of passes from Francis to Byrd. The second touchdown, made
in the last quarter was a result of the combined gains of Rouse, Francis, Chalfant, and Bealle;
Francis carrying it over. Tech scored a safety in the first period, when a Major fumbled the
ball behind his own goal line.

"Windy" Crawford and the IVLajors Scalped the Choctaws
IMajors, 6; Choctaws, o

The whole Choctaw Nation, including their squaws and papooses, came to Jackson, October
23; pulled a big parade in a drenching rain, and that afternoon, while it was still raining,
went down to the Mississippi Fair Grounds to fight with the Millsaps Majors. Ever since that

133

— >..sv M^sM AAu HoTHF. BOBASHELAoK=Mo

eventful date, there is one deed that the Choctaw warriors have refrained from talking about in [,

the presence of their people, and that is, what the Milisaps Majors did that day. And why

should they talk about something that they want to forget? Major Oaines "Windy" Crawford

caught a punt on the forty-yard line, evaded the grasp of "Big Chief" Berry, and ran through

the mud, water, and Choctaw team for a touchdown. In spite of the downpouring rain, Major

Jobie Harris, the boy with the magic toe, always kicked the ball beyond reach of the Indians;

they could not bring it back for the lack of canoes in which to navigate the gridiron. When

the last whistle blew, and the sun went down, the purple-clad Majors trotted off the field victors

by one touchdown.

S. P. U. Defeated the Majors
Majors, o; Lynx, 7

The football squad of the Southwestern Presbyterian T'niversity had the honor to be the
second team that defeated the Majors. With a string of three clean-cut victories to their credit,
the Purple and White warriors went to Memphis on the thirty-first of October with high hopes
of adding the Lynx to their list of victims, but S. P. U. proved to be better than she was cracked
up to be, and the Majors lost.

The Howard Bulldogs Were Defeated
Majors, 14; Bulldogs, 13

The Howard Bulldog Squad was the fourth Association team to go down in defeat before the
purple-clad Majors, in the race for the 1925 championship. The game was played in Birming-
ham, November 6. Major Gaines "Windy" Crawford's ninety-yard run for the second touch-
down, and Francis' unerring place kick won the game for Milisaps. Mabry was the underlying
cause of the victory, because it was when he knocked the ball from the arms of Bancroft, Bulldog
quarter, that Crawford got loose for the ninety-yard run. Captain Brooks, according to Alabama
sports writers, "played the sweetest game at end ever seen on a Birmingham gridiron."

Birmingham Panthers Crushed Majors' Hope For Championship
Majors, 6; Panthers, 19

The Birmingham-Southern Panthers shattered our hopes for the S. I. A. A. championship,
Friday, November 13, when they came to Jackson with Curly Black and a brass band, to beat
the Majors. Whether or not the unlucky date was responsible for the defeat is a controversy
that will never be settled, but the work of Curly Black and that brass band cannot be denied.
During the first half, Curly went through the Major line for gain after gain, putting the ball in
a position where his team mates could score a total of three touchdowns, while that brass band
played gleefully on. In the last half, long passes, Francis to Crawford and Brooks, resulted in
the Majors' only touchdown.

Mississippians Defeated Majors For St.ate Honors
Majors, o; Ole Miss, 21

The so-called Mighty Mississippians, from that institution known as Ole Miss, came down
to the Capitol City Thanksgiving Day to help the Majors wind up the 1925 season. By taking
advantage of all the breaks, the Mississippians managed to pile up a score of 21 to o, and as a
consequence, called themselves "runners-up" for the state championship. This one-sided score
cannot be taken as an indication of how the game was played, for Milisaps made as many
first downs as Ole Miss, and had more individual stars. Gaines Crawford easily outclassed
Solly Cohen, and "Pole" Webb handled his opponent with one hand. Jobie Harris broke the
state punting record when, in the last quarter, he booted one for seventy-five yards. On this
day nine men played their last game for Milisaps.

Tke Members of tke 1925 Football Team

In 1925, the fifth year in the history of
Millsaps football, the Militant Majors won
four out of five Association games and tied
with Howard and BirminKham-Southern for
the S. I. A. A. championship. Here is a list
of the men who were responsible:

Clyde Atkins, Right End

The best defensive man in the state. He
will be missed after three years of varsity ex-
perience.

James Baxter, Center

A senior who made the second team of the
All-State Eleven in spite of the fact that he
was on the injured list for the best part of
the season.

"Cyrus" Bealle, Fullback

A hard-driving plunger, who never failed
to make a substantial gain. In 1925, he played
his last game for the Majors.

Leroy Brooks, Left End

Captain of the team and noted for his
ability to grab the almost impossible passes.
He was an All-State man in 1923.

"Tiny" Brooks, Left Tackle

The heaviest man on the team and one of
the most consistent tacklers.

"Puny" Brooks, Left Tackle

A 230 pounder, who was promoted from the
Minor team of 1924. His huge frame was
a bulwark of defense.

"Grandma" Chalfant, Halfback

One whom the coach always sent in when
it was necessary to make some long gains.
1925 was his last year, after three years'
faithful service on the varsity eleven.

Gaines "Windy" Crawford, Halfback

Although 1925 was his first year with the
varsity, he easily made the first team of the
mythical All-State Eleven; and many sport
writers said that he was the best individual
player in this part of the football realm.

Paul Byrd, Halfback
Paul looked good with the varsity this year,
especially Avhen he got loose and made a
touchdo\\n in the L. P. I. game.

Jimmy Francis, Quarterback
Another recruit from the 1924 Minors and
a triple-threat man who was a thorn in the
side of his opponents.

Jorie Harris, Halfback
Jobie's magic toe served his Alma Mater
for three years. This season, although he was
on the injured list, he won a position on the
second team of the All-State Eleven.

"Bo" Holloman, Quarterback
For three years the lightest football player
in Mississippi. He made the second team of
the All-State Eleven in 1924.

Charles Henley, Right Guard
All-Stater for two years, elected captain of
the 1926 squad, and a football player cap-
able of making any' man's team.

"Kirk" Kirkpatrick, Left Guard

A good running-mate for Henley. The
two go to make up what are known as the
"Gold Dust Twins."

"Hot" Mabry, Tackle

An all-round good linesman, who flashed
into the limelight for what he did in the
Howard game.

"Brown JVIule" Rape, Center

Rape was a substitute, and he did not get
many chances to demonstrate his ability, but
he is going to have an all-time job next .\ear.

"Speedy" Rouse, Fullback
A pile-driver is the best illustration that can
be used in describing the ability of this man.

Harold "Pole" Webb. Tackle

"Pole" played and "put out" with his finger
in a sling, but he made the mythical All-
State Scjuad.

"Brute" Wright, Tackle

Although only a substitute, he played in
nearly all of the most important games.

R. Ba.xter and Blount, Ends
Two good recruits from the 1924 Minors,
who have a good chance to make the varsity
next year.

S. R. Moody and Jack ^V^,LIAMS

Two men who tried for backfield, but they
did not get a chance to show their ability.

"Partner" Ben

C.oinh'nuillnn Mascot ami ICatcr-Bny
He blames himself for the H.-S. C. defeat
because he was too excited to tell "Partner"
Crawford to "cut in.''

The 1926 Tennis Teams to flave Busy Season

In January, 1926, the varsity tennis team, composed of R. C. West and "Son" Whitehead,
defeated the Mississippi College team in doubles. At the same meet, which was held in Clinton,
West lost the singles contest to his Choctaw opponent. The freshman team lost both contests.

Professor White, the official sponsor and director of the tennis activities, has planned to carry
the teams to Birmingham some time this spring to play with the aggregations of Birmingham-
Southern and Howard colleges. The teams will also probably go to Shreveport, Louisiana, to
meet the Centenary College ra(iueteers.

Before commencement week there will he another match with Mississippi College, and the
state tournament between A. and M., Mississippi College, Ole Miss, and Millsaps will be held
this spring at Clinton. Ole Miss may not participate in this tournament, because she has been
outlawed by the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association, but the other teams will meet as
scheduled.

West and Whitehead go to make up the varsity doubles team, and ^^'est pla\s the singles
contests. George Greenway is a substitute. The freshman team is composed of Cato, Hudson,
Fowler, and Lewis.

Good Material for 1926 Track Team

If Millsaps College does not have a good track season in 1926, it will not be
because there is not enough good material from which to select a team. Captain
Harold "Pole" Webb, star shot-putter and discus thrower, is carrying his men through
a strenuous practice period in spite of the prevailing bad weather.

One serious drawback to the possibilities is that the boys have no track coach ; but
in times past Millsaps has been without a track coach, and jet she has developed
creditable teams.

Golf a New Addition to Millsaps Sports

For the hist several years at Millsaps College, there has been a growing interest in all kinds
of athletic sports; hut unfortunately, due to the fact that only a limited inuiiber of students are
able to participate in the major sports, the true purpose of athletics has not been accomplished.
With the construction of a nine-hole golf course on the campus, in the spring of 1925, a long
step was taken towards the realization of this purpose. This sport, while not too strenuous to
be played by even the Co-eds, is thrilling enough to hold the attention of the most confirmed
sportsman ; and those students who do not have a chance to make one of the major teams, and
soine of them who do, have already become golf enthusiasts.

The :926 Ciolf (^luli is composed of those in the picture and the following: Blount, Bolton,
Barnes, Crisler, Babington, and Dr. D. M. Key.

Bright Outlook for Baseball in 1926

The 1926 baseball team has not yet developed, but with the wealth of material to pick from, and
the prevailing good weather at the time of the practice season, the Majors have good reason to bo
optimistic.

The pitching staff will not be incomplete. There are "Speedy" Rouse, Blaekwell, Swango, and
Chalfant from Varsity of last year; Oerald and Moody from last year's Minors, and Applewhite, who
is a former Major. "Windy" Crawford is a good catcher, and "Bo" Holloman can lie depended upon
behind the hat. Jobie Harris (Captain), Jack Williams, and Paul Byrd, of last year's infield, will
probably hold down the old positions. "Brown Mule" Ra]>e and Francis, of last year's Minors, will
be valuable infield material. The outfield will be altogether different from last year. Baxter, Blount,
Combs, Fleming, Tatuni, and Walton should be enough material from w^hich an outfield can be bull*.

Games have been scheduled with Howard, Birmingham-Southern, A. and M., L. P. I., and Missis-
Bippi College.

What the Millsaps Minors Did in 1926

For the fust time in the history of Millsaps athletics, the Freshmen had the supervision of a
full-time coach. Ormoiut Van Hook, an alumnus of the College, fashioned a team that trained
some good material for the 1936 Majors; although it was too light to defeat any of the Freshman
teams on the schedide.

The Minors opened the season with a 34 to o victory over the "Dummy" team in West
Jackson. They then went to Starkville and lost to the A. and M. Bull Pup aggregation, 18 to o.
The other two road trips both turned out disastrously for the Minors: the Centenary first year
men, the strongest freshman team in the South, won the long end of a 68 to o score, and the
L. P. 1. Freshmen of Ruston, Louisiana, came out on top with a score of 20 to 7. Ihe next game
and the last victory for the Minors was a 2+ to o win over the Yazoo County Aggies. The day
before Thanksgiving, the strong team of the Mississippi College Papooses defeated the Little
Majors, 32 to o.

In spite of this very poor record in the realm of college football, the 1925 Minor team trained
several good men for service with the Majors in 1926. The backfield men: Captain Elton Rouse,
Wascom, Bilbo, O'Steen, Legan, Davidson, Caver, J. B. Green, Stackhouse, and C. H. Babington.
The line: Guyton, Rape, Reid, Bounds, Holcomb, McManus, Porter, Williams, and Farmer.

The 1926 Minor Basketball Five Won 18 Out of 19 Games

Under the tutelage of Coach Ormorul Van Hook, the i<)2.() Freshman basketball team de-
veloped into one of the greatest potential scoring machines in the South. They ran up a score
of 852 to their opponents' 326.

The Mississippi College Papooses was the only team which overcame the Minors, and this
defeat was avenged by three decisive victories. Series were played with Gulf Coast Military
Academy, Hattiesburg "V," Canton "Y," and various high school teams, none of which were
able to win from the Minors. The first team always started the game, and as soon as the score
was high, Coach Van Hook sent in the Wrecking Crew, which usually finished things up.

SUPER-POWER AND INDUSTRIES

Only a few years ago Massachusetts led North Carolina as a textile
manufacturing state. North Carolina brought super-power within
the state, and today North Carolina leads Massachusetts in textile
mills.

Industries follow in the wake of super-power development, for an
abundancy of electric power is essential to manufacturing economy.
Mississippi is the second largest producer of cotton in this country.
There are very few textile mills.

Mississippi Can Offer the Manufacturer
AN IDEAL CLIMATE CHEAP LABOR

Local Activities of '25 and '26

1 for the Co-eds, this was an age of transi-
from Bobbed Hair to "Charleston" Socks.

During the regime of Dr. U. Z. Hathorn.
no less than thirty per cent of the Millsaps
students lost their appendixes. Investigation
of a current rumor brought to light facts which
proved, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the
College authorities were in "cahoots' with the
local hospitals. Under the supervision of a
competent physician, the dining hall fare was
adulterated with a concoction which immediately
caused the appendixes to become inflamed enough
to cause a desire for their removal. When it
became necessary for operations, the students
were removed to the hospitals, and Dr. Hathorn
collected a handsome commission for his part of
the transaction.

The members of the Millsaps Geology class
made an important contribution to scientific
knowledge when they discovered that Jonah
made his trans-atlantic voyage in the hot sum-
mer season. This fact was disclosed when the
petrified carcass of a sea-going whale, uncovered
by the excavations on the new athletic field, was
found to contain, among other interesting objects,
a 1926 model straw "Katy."

Juot 'before the Christmas holidays in 1925,
the supply of chapel cards became exhausted,
and it was not possible to get any relief for
the emergency, so for several long and boresome
days the inmates of this institution were not
allowed to attend chapel.

Shack Row. inhabited for the most part by
the preachers of this institution, was the scene
of many long and bloody struggles. One day
two prominent preachers met in the middle of
the street and became involved in a controversy
over the constitutionality of the Ten Command-
ments. The intensity of the situation increased
so rapidly it soon attracted the entire population
of that sector of the campus, and the property
of the College became endangered. Dr. Demos-
thenes M. Key, chairman of th^ in;;titution, called
the Faculty into special session and they ob-
tained the passage of such legislation which was
necessary before Shack Row could be legally
fortified. As soon as it was expedient to act,
the College artillery, consisting of one piece, was
removed from its foundation near Foundei's Hall
to the roof of Mrs. Fadra Wilson's residence.

In order to ascertain the rank and standing
of all fraternities at Millsaps, the Editor wrote
them personal letters, to which they replied in
the following manner;

Dear Editor:

In reply to your
this Sorority has al
in more than sixty

uiry, we will say that
ist succeeded in roping
cent of the Co-ed sec-

tion of Millsaps. In order to reach this high
mark of perfection, it was necessary to lower
our standards of membership, but the results
justify that action.

Lovingly yours,

PHI MU.
Dear Editor:

Please publish in your worthy publication
that we are still in search of pledges for the
1926 season. If there is anyone with, whom
you are acquainted who might be interested
in a bid, we will appreciate it if you will let
U3 know immediately.

Respectfully,

KAPPA ALPHA.
Dear Editor:

In answer to your inquiry we wish to state
that the fiscal year just ended has been a very
successful one for us. After the expenditure
ot much effort we were able to persuade a goodly
number of the 1926 Co-eds to join us, and as a
consequence we are in duty bound to take in all
their home-folks.

Yours for a better Sorority,

KAPPA DELTA.
Dear Editor:

-This fraternity has at least succeeded in
pledging all the outstanding athletes In the
future, as in the past, that will be our paramount
purpose. Respectfully yours,

THETA KAPPA NU.
Dear Editor:

Our scribe has been authorized to inform you
that this fraternity is the most exclusive one on
the campus, but in order to fill in a few gaps
we will take in anybody.

Yours truly,

PI KAPPA ALPHA.
Dear Editor:

Our condition is hopeless unless vou come to
our rescue with a little publicity. By virtue of
our modesty and the fact that we are young
in Greek letter organization, we are bullied by
the others, and beaten to all the best material.
Yours in hope,

CHI KAPPA.
Dear Editor:

We have had bad luck this year. Although
we have tried to pick all mem'jers with regard
to their inability and social standing, we find in
spite of all precautions, we have taken in some
who get along like "cats and dogs."
Yours truly.

KAPPA SIGMA.
Dear Editor:

Yours of February 31st received and contents
duly noted. We wish to say in reply that it will
be impossible for us to take a page in the 1926
Bobashela, if we do not get a cut, because our
budget does not provide for such an expense.
It costs so much for us to petition the Greatest
Woman's F.aternity in America for a charter,
and with all our other publicity schemes on
foot, it will just be out of the question for us
to be represented unless you donate the page
without any cost to us.

Yours with regrets,

BETA TAU.

Students of Pliny— Observe!

When one considers how the time passes at Millsaps, one cannot be surprised
that, take any single day, and it either is, or at least seems to be, spent reasonably
enough; and yet, upon casting up the whole sum, the amount will appear quite
otherwise.

Ask anyone, "What have you been doing today?" He will tell you, perhaps.
"I have been putting on a feast; I have attended two classes; one fellow begged me
to be his second at a bull session; another to answer for him at class; a third called
me to read a choice one from the Whiz Bang." These things seem important enough
whilst one is about them; yet, when you reflect at your leisure, that every day has
been thus employed, they seem mere trifles. At such a time one is apt to say to
oneself, "How much of my life I have frittered away in dull, useless routine." At
least it is the reflection which frequently comes across me at the Edwards, after I
have been doing a little reading and writing, and taking care of the animal machine
down in the coffee room. There I neither hear nor speak anything I have occasion to
be sorry for. No one talks scandal to me, and I find fault with nobody, unless myself.
There I stay undisturbed by rumor and free from the prying eyes of the "profs."
conversing only with my notes, telephone numbers and chance pickups. True and
genuine life! Sweet and honorable repose! More, perhaps, to be desired than em-
ployments of any kind! Thou solemn mezzanine and solitary nook, true and most
convenient school of fun, beauty and pleasure, many happy thoughts do you inspire
in me! Snatch, then, my friend, as I have, the first opportunity of leaving school
with its din, its empty bustle and laborious trifles, and devote your days to pleasure
or to repose, for as my friend Oakey happily observed, "It is better to hold a full
house than to bluff on nothing." Vale — that is to say . . . Farewell!

years old, crying because his father slapped him for sassin' his grand-dad . . . This so-called
baseball team is trying to run up an all-time error record . . . Must be nice to be thru — I am
going to try it.

Just making a rough guess I'll bet that Old Man N. Webster was glad when he had finished
writing his classical work — "Words and Some Meanings." Anyway, this is being written with
a lot of relief. Seems to me that I wrote something in the "Preface" or somewhere, what a
lot of help the Staff had been, et cetera — especially the cetera . . . But now, when it comes to
this, I am ALONE — alone to answer all the thousands of questions about "when will it be out?"
The Associate Editor is planning to get out a better book next year. The others are doing various
things. Old MB will still have to fight for the money to pay for all this — and I envy him not
hia job. Speaking of next year: I hope that the coming Senior class will co-operate with the
Editor-Elect and I know that Miss Legg will get out a good annual. Glad this College is get-
ting far enough away from petty jealousy and prejudice to elect a girl as Editor. Miss Legg,
you have an honor no other girl will ever have at Millsaps — the First Co-Ed Editor! Outa
this job some hours should be rated — wonder if the Faculty will "know enough" to give them to me.
Studying a little now — this Cena Trimalcliionis is hot stuff. Going to Paris summer after next —
may drop down in Rome and send you coming Latin sharks a picture-card of that "Do as Romans
Do" place. This thing, leaving college, gets a funny feeling going inside you. Joe Price has
been writing about Spring — boy must be bugs — need an overcoat today. This "Charleston"
thing they are doing — saw-mill niggers used to dance that for me, years and years ago. Rather
curious to note that the dances, songs and talk seems to be sinking to that level. To the Coming
Students of Millsaps: Try thinking a bit — maybe you'll get accustomed to it!
