The
BOBASHELA
1929
PRESENTED BY THE
SENIOR CLASS
OF
MILLSAPS COLLEGE
JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI
Volume XXIII
Dedication
ONE who has proved himself the highest type of
scholar and gentleman; who in his unassuming
manner has always done his work thoroughly and
has accomplished much; whose attitude toward the
students has ever been broadminded and impartial;
one for whose influence and friendship we are
indeed grateful — to this man,
PROF. A. Q SANDERS
with the greatest admiration and respect this
volume of the
Bobashela is dedicated.
p
HOREWORD
Within these pages we have
attempted to chronicle ac-
curately and interestingly the
year of '29 at Millsaps, en-
deavored not only to give a
mere record of events but to
preserve something of the at-
mosphere, traditions, and in-
spirations of the Alma Mater.
We have labored long and
tediously and have given our
best. But, if in future years,
when our youth and laughter
are of the past, a perusal of
this volume should stir again
the golden dust of cherished
memories . . . then, it
will have served its
purpose well.

FEATURES
Alma Mater
Alma Mater, dear old Millsaps,
Loyal sons are we;
Our fond hearts are thine alone
And evermore shall be.
Proud art thou in classic beauty
Of thy noble past.
With thy watchword, Honor, Duty,
Thy high fame shall last.
Every student, man and maiden.
Swell the glad refrain,
'Til the breezes, music laden.
Waft it back again.
Proud art thou in classic beauty
Of thy noble past,
With thy watchword, Honor, Duty,
Thy high fame shall last.

SENIORS
JVith a steady swing and an open brow
We have tramped the ways together,
But we're clasping hands at the cross-roads now,
In the Fiend's own night for weather;
And whether we bleed or whether we smile
In the leagues that lie before us,
The ways of life are many a mile,
And the dark of Fate is o'er us.
Here's luck!
And a cheer for the dark before us!

Good morning, Life — and all
Things glad and beautiful.
My pockets nothing hold,
But he that owns the gold,
The Sun, is my great friend —
His spending has no end.
Hail to you women fair,
That make a show so rare
In cloth as white as milk —
Bet calico or silk ;
Good morning, Life — and all
Things glad and beautiful.

Comrades, pour the wine tonight,
For the parting is with dawn.
Oh, the clink of cups together,
With the daylight coming on!
Greet the morn
JFith a double horn,
When strong men drink together!

When I was a student, gay and free,
And life was a constant Thrill
I belonged to a swell Fraternitee —
And, of course, I belong to it still.
And I bought me a pin bejeweled and smart,
And it cost me a lot of dough,
And I -wore it constantly , next to my heart,
Or only a bit below.
The law's decree and its firm intent —
Which Brothers were bound to obey —
Proclaimed that a pin could only be lent
To its owner's Fiancee.
And I kept that law to the letter thereof,
For mine was a loyal flame;
That pin is held by a long-lost Love —
/ wish I remembered her name!

Coach Van Hook
The Coaches
A perfect football machine, full of dynamic energy, and an excellent strategist, is Edwin
"Goat" Hale — the Majors' head coach of football and baseball. As an athletic mentor his pur-
pose has been to have winning teams, and he has taken pains to build them. To him is due the
credit for lifting Millsaps' football and baseball from the mediocrity of former years to the po-
sition they now occupy — in a class with other good teams. And to him will He due the majority
of credit for the future of the Majors in these two sports. His men admire him for his strong
character and unquestioned ability, and because of the discipline that he has always demanded.
The student body is behind him and gives its loyal support. "Goat" has just finished his second
year at Millsaps and his first year as head coach.
Benjamin Ormand Van Hook, who in the capacity of Athletic Director determines the who,
when, where, and wherewithal of the Majors' schedules, is perhaps the busiest man on the campus.
He began his career as a Millsaps coach a few years back when he coached the Freshman teams.
He was the favorite of each incoming class and his excellence won for him his present high po-
sition. Besides his general athletic responsibilities he is head coach of basketball and assistant
in football and baseball. To him also Millsaps' Athletics are greatly indebted. "Coach's' pop-
ularity with his teams and the student body is well deserved.
"A good scout, any way you take him" — may be said of the Freshman Mentor, "Slim" Young
— whether he is ferreting out and diagnosing the plays of an opposing eleven or just "being him-
self." He came to us from a responsible position with Meridian High to guide the destinies of
the Freshmen, and although this is but his first year he has won his place already. Other than
first year sports, "Slim" coaches track, and, incidentally, he is quite a track man himself, holding
the S. I. A. A. record for the pole vault. The sport here under his tutelage should flourish. He
is an old Millsaps man of the time of "Tuck" Henley and "Pole" Webb.

THE FOOTBALL SQUAD

The victorious season of '28 was perhaps the best ever experienced by Major gridders in the
history of Millsaps. Losing only tliree games out of nine played, and piling up 140 points to
their opponents' 86, they accomplished more than enough to be proud of.
Meeting Clarke College in the initial clash of the season, the Major crew worked under a
great handicap in being forced to cover up practically all of their better plays. Saving their
best bets for the Choctaw contest they played straight, hard football to win, 7-0.
The following week the team met their first defeat of the year at the hands of Birmingham-
Southern, T2-o. However, they gave a good account of themselves, putting up a game fight
against their heavier, more powerful opponents. A lack of reserve strength on the Major side-
lines was a decisive factor in the defeat. Captain McManus and "Goat" Hale played exception-
ally well.
On October 13, playing a militant game, the Majors downed the Spring Hill Badgers at
Mobile by the count of 6-0. Brainy, heads up football was responsible for the win. Unleashing
an unexpected, powerful, running offensive, the Purple team mastered the situation at all times
and, except for some bad breaks, would have rung up a higher score. "Goofy" Wright was
right in this game.
Friday of the Fair the game, scrapping Majors went up against the powerful Mississippi Col-
lege Choctaws and overwhelming odds. Their newly-found fight and great football playing,
however, evened things up and it ended in a 6-6 deadlock. The Purple defense against the far-
famed Indian passes was impregnable and only an untimely break was responsible for the Choc-
'--1

taw touchdown. The Majors made three drives during the (;amf which ended inside the Blue
and Gold 5-yard stripe, while the Braves threatened only once — a loose ball recovered on Mill-
saps' 2-yard line. Bealle, Bell, Selman and McManus were outstanding.
The next week an over-confident Purple team met Louisiana Normal at the stadium and in
the early minutes of the first period found themselves trailing, 6-0. Realizing their position, they
shoved over three quick touchdowns and from then on were never in danger. Before the final
whistle the Majors crossed the Louisiana goal line five times for a total of 32 points. The Normal
team in the last quarter scored twice more against the Major reserves, who finished the game.
It was a sensational contest featured by many long runs and fast, open plays. For Millsaps
Punch McDaniels, Cap'n Mac and Charlie Strait were the stars. Final score, Majors, 32;
Louisiana, 19.
It was November 3rd that the Majors showed what a great little team they really were when
they struck the Tulane Greenies at New Orleans. A gamer, scrappier eleven never set foot in the
Tulane bowl. Against one of the greatest teams in Dixie the Purple crew went out to win. For
the first two periods the great green wave was fought to a standstill. All the first half the ball
was held in Tulane Territory with the Green eleven desperately holding off each Major thrust.
Reserve strength told the tale. The Purple squad came on the field to start the second half with
a battered line and a backfield that had shot its bolt. The Greenies came back fresh and untir-
ing, and with a massive, charging line, the famous "Blondy Bill" Banker pounded through be-
hind terrific interference to finally crush the weakened, but fighting Major team. The score
was 27-0.
After putting up such a great exhibition at New Orleans the squad met their next opponents,
doped to win and overconfident. At Ruston, Louisiana, they suffered the only humiliating de-
feat of the season. The L. P. I. Bulldogs caught the Purple off their guard and swept them back
to a 15-7 loss. The Majors outplayed the Bulldogs, but were the victims of bad breaks through-
out and failed to get their attack going. Jake Miller alone played in consistent form.
Home-coming found the Majors facing the Southwestern Louisiana Wildcats on a muddy
field. Stung by the defeat of the past week, and playing before the expectant home-coming
crowd, the team played inspiring])' to win by a top-heavy score over the team that previously
had licked L. P. L, 41-0. The Purple pushed over three quick touchdowns at the start and were
never headed. Jake Miller's 76-yard run for touchdown, and "Goofy" Wright's 65-yard run
to the goal featured the game. Jones, at tackle, played a great game, as did McManus and
Bealle, linesmen. Final score, 31-7.
It was on Thanksgiving that the Purple wave hit its true stride. With the Union Bulldogs
opposing, Captain McManus, playing his. iast game as a Major, led an eleven into the Jackson
stadium that was on that day invincible. The Majors were at the peak of their game and from
the beginning the contest was a riot, a massacre. Scoring at will, twice in the first period, twice
in the second, three times in the third, and once in the last, the Purple literally battered the
bewildered Bulldogs down to the most crushing defeat ever administered by a Millsaps team.
The final score was 51-0. Sweeping the ends, slashing off tackle, and plunging through the mid-
dle of a charging, forward wall, the militant backs drove down the field for touchdowns time
after time. McManus wore his purple jersey for the last time, and playing the game of his life,
was an inspiration to his teammates throughout. The entire backfield was running on schedule
with Jones and Selman playing stellar roles in the line. This game drew the curtain on the '2S
schedule. Watch 'em go in '29!

BOSWELL— "Potts,"
jam-up tackle, trainei

MILLER — "Jake" was Millsaps' sensational Sophomore half. Fast and
shifty, he was always a threat on the offense and played a strong de-
fensive game. New Orleans newspapers classed him as one of the best
seen on the Tulane field in several years. Two years left.
McMANLS — "Cap'n Mac" drew the curtain on his career as a Major
last season, having played the full period in every game for three years
with the exception of three minutes. He was all-state center for two
3'ears and one of the best gridders Millsaps has ever produced.
BILBO — "Gov" made up for his lack of weight with speed and a knowl-
edge of the game. A good little quarter who will be missed next year.
KELLY — "Kelly" at guard was one of the mainstays of the line. His
ability and fight will make him still better next year.
BEALLE — "Johnny" played an end and few plays went around him. He
was in there smearing them all the time. Watch him next season.

JONES — "Jones" came to Millsaps from Clarke with a rep as
:rack
he was a thorn to every opposing eleven. Another good man who will In-
back next year.
COTTEN — "Cotten" had more drive ptr pound than any man on the
squad. Small, but with lots of speed and grit.
WRIGHT — "Goofy" deserved the confidence placed in him by his team-
mates when they elected him next year's captain. Heavy and fast on his
feet, he hits the line and runs the ends equally well. A good passer and
kicker, he is everything a fullback should be.
WELSH — When "Kid" took quarter the team played real football. Fine
on the defense with his hard tackling, he also was popular with the men.
BELL — "Eboo" could snag passes from any position and at any angle.
Light, but fast and nervy, he was a good end. Remember the Choctaw
game ?
MAYNOR — "Molly" took over a regular varsity tackle as soon as he
graduated from the Frosh ranks. Lots of good gains went through holes
that he opened. He has two more years to play.

HOLCOMBE — "Robert" knew how to play guard and had the ability to
do it better than most men. A broken arm in mid-season put him out of
the game while he was at his best. He will be missed in the line next
year.
GRAHAM — "Fred" came to Millsaps his Freshman year as an all-South-
ern High tackle and immediately fell into line as a reliable forward. He
loved the game and gave his best always.
STRAIT — "Charlie" played a good end until the team met Tulane. And
then, lie starred. His pass receiving kept the "Greenies" in hot water
the entire game. Another fleet, powerful Sophomore.
McDANIELS — "Punch" carried 160 pounds of hard bone and muscle,
and when he hit he jolted. A powerful, courageous back who has two
more years of regular varsity ability.
ROl'SE — "Pat" was shifted last year from the backtield to the line and
there found the position which he played best. A strong, rangy guard who
was hard to take out of a play.
BOUNDS — "George," during his four years at Millsaps, showed real
spirit. He came out and fought for a berth on the team and never let
up. He deserved his letter. Good luck, George.

HOLLOMAX — "Bo," the lightest man on the squad, fai'ed to get in many
games, but when he did play, he did it well.
CAMPBELL — "Ted" backed up the line with the best of them and his
twisting runs have been good for some substantial gains. He plays full

Freshman Football
Coach Young and Iris powerful group of Freshmen spent more
time this season versing themselves in football fundamentals than
in organizing too compactly into a team and playing a definite sched-
ule; hut showed as the season progressed the fine potentialities of
the men for the Varsity next year. It was the plan of the coach-
ing staff that they not become too organized and develop peculiari-
ties hard to eradicate in their varsity career. So blocking, tackling,
kicking, passing, and scrimmaging the Varsity — with a number of
well played games — comprised the Frosh routine for the past year.
In scrimmages with the Varsity they gave, as well as obtained,
much valuable experience.

Minor Eleven Ready for Action
The games played were hard fought. Decatur was defeated by a
close margin in the first game of the season. Clarke College, over
whom the Varsity barely eked out a 6-0 victory, defeated the Minor
gridsters by scoring late in a struggle that was "anybody's" game.
Perkinston was played on the coast and tied. The Mississippi
College Papooses, highly touted to win, were decisively beaten at
Clinton. The last game of the season at Carthage resulted in a tie.
"Slim" Young, the coach, was well liked by his men and received
excellent co-operation. At the end of the season for the first time
in the history of the institution Freshmen were invited to the varsity
banquet and presented with sweaters.

VARSITY BASKETBALL
The 1929 Major basketball crew experienced a season
only a little better than mediocre. This was in part due to
the fact that there was only one regular letter man returned
from the 1928 line-up, and partly due to the fact that Coach
Van Hook found it a difficult job to assemble a combination
that worked well together. The season's wins totaled 12
with nine losses.
Captain "Goober" Carruth and Charlie Strait were the
most consistent performers on the team. "Goober" was
the left-over from the year before and Charlie, a sophomore,
who filled the other guard vacancy very capably. These
two men were highly instrumental in all the Purple wins.
Jones, a transfer from Clarke, played forward ami possibly
was the outstanding goal-tosser of the quint. A better de-
fensive team would be hard to find in this section, but it
was the lack of offensive strength which kept the Majors
from producing an excellent array of cagers, and the same
weakness was responsible for their early elimination from
the S. I. A. A. tournament. Three other men played regu-
larly besides those above. They were Wright, center. Mapp
and Ladner, forwards.
One of the high lights during the course of the season
was the decisive drubbing handed the Mississippi Choctaws
in the first game of a four-game series. The score was .^2-12

Majorette Basketball
Placing on the floor an excellent first-string six anil supporting
them with a well-coached group of reserves, Mrs. Brumfield developed
a co-ed basketball team the past season which ranked with the best of
former Majorette machines. Due to the fact that only two of the 1927
regulars were back in the Line-up as a nucleus with which to work, the
Coach is due a great deal of credit for the fine showing made by the
sextette in their engagements over the state. Eleven victories to four
losses was the record attained for the past year.
Captain Myrtle Steen at center and Linnie Lingle at forward were
the mainstays who formerly had played under Millsaps colors. The
other four who played regularly. Flurry, forward; Ratlift, center; and
Loflin and Morgan, guards, were all new but gave good accounts of
themselves. A fast passing attack in the center court, accurate shooting
by the forwards, and a pair of strong guards, all went to round out the
team which fought valiantly at all times and served to keep the high
record that the Millsaps Majorettes have ever maintained.

Freshman Basketball
The Frosh cagers of '29 were ably coached by "Slim" Young and toward the
close of the season were showing form that within a year or two should place several
of them on the Varsity. The inability to organize into a team and to develop a better
brand of offensive handicapped them greatly early in the season.

First Row: Cammack, Flowers, Scott, Ford, Bilbo, Butler, Haixixg.
Second Row: Shipman, McDaxiels, Hale, Hollomax, Ellisox, Rouse, Miller, Harala, Ladxer.
Third Row: Coach Hale, Miller, Wright, Selmax, Caver, Carruth, "Podxuh Bex."
Varsity Baseball
"Goat" Hale begins his second Spring as Major baseball mentor
this year and from all indications will place on the field a team on a
par with any in the state. "Goat" knows baseball and has formerly
played in fast company, and with his men already disciplined and pos-
sessing a knowledge of the game, his job will consist mainly in keeping
them on their toes and keeping them fit. Only a few of last year's letter-
men are missing and the squad does not lack plenty of reserve ability.
The infielders are fast and can field and hit for themselves. And with
a hard-hitting outfield, the team will not be weak at the slugging end
of the game. The only probable weakness lies in the moundsmen. Six
or eight men are cut for the jobs but none have done outstanding work
in the past. However, with more experience and with the approach of
warm weather, they are expected to come around with greater develop-
ment and by the time the season gets under sail should compose a very
capable box staff.

Varsity Track
After "Slim" ^ oung left Millsaps some years back, the Millsaps
track team ceased to exist. Slim was a team in himself, capable of en-
tering any of the track's events but specializing in jumping and the
pole vault. He established several records in the South and in the S.
I. A. A. in the latter branch. And now he comes back to his Alma
Mater not as a team, but in the capacity of Coach. And under his
tutelage the sport should flourish. A large number of men are turning
out and keeping the cinder path warm with intensive training. Mill-
saps' track team has its future assured in that at its beginning it has a
wealth of material and a jam-up Coach who can bring the material out.
Meets are being arranged by the director of Athletics and by the
time mid-season is here the men should be in good shape and ready for
all comers. May the Purple's initial venture in the field of tracks and
hurdles be a successful and victorious one.

Varsity Tennis
Millsaps tennis has always been a successful sport and in '28 ex-
perienced one of its best years. The same four who made letters in
that year are back in harness and ready for the schedule. Sessions,
Fowler, Boswell, and Ford are the members of the team, Ford being
lost to baseball this Spring. However, in Martin, Wilson, and Doss,
Professor White, coach, has some good reserves who can easily take the
places of any of the veterans after a little tournament experience.
The College courts during the winter months have been recon-
structed and are now in fine shape for the racquet wielders to begin
their early practice sessions.
Although faced by a difficult schedule, the men are anxious to begin
the season and are preparing themselves for the tougher opposition which
they will strike with the arrival of warm weather.
