qAs  the  glories  of  ancient 
Greece  live  for  us  in  the 
fragmentary  remains  of  its 
literature,  so  we  the  editors 
hope  that  your  happy  days 
at  Sewanee  may  live  again 
in  these  imperfect

In  olden  days,  when  the  sons  of 
Sparta  went  forth  to  war,  each  was 
given  a  shield  by  his  mother,  where- 
with to  prove  himself  a  man. 

Today  our  mothers  still  send  us 
forth  to  fight  for  truth  and  honor. 

cAs  a  loving  tribute,  therefore, 

To  those  who  have  called  us  into 
being, 

To  those  who  have  given  us  our 
honor  and  our  ideals, — 

To  our  mothers,  and  to  our  £M oth- 
er Sewanee, — 

We  dedicate  this  volume.

cAlma  <5\4ater,  Sewanee, 

SMy  glorious  ^Mother  ever  be, 
I  will  give  my  all  to  thee — 

Qod  bless  thee  to  eternity. 
Thou  canst  make  me  worth  the  while, 

O  guide  and  shelter  me, 
oAnd  all  my  life,  through  storm  and  strife, 

£My  star  thou  It  be.

oA  towered  city  set  within  a  wood, 

''far  from  the  world,  upon  a  mountain's  crest: 

There  storms  of  life  burst  not,  nor  cares  intrude; 

There  Learning  dwells,  and  cPeace  is  Wisdom's  guest.

This  board  is  elected  by  the  Board  of  Trustees  and  consists  of  three  bishops,  three  presbyters 
and  nine  laymen.  The  chancellor  and  vice-chancellor  also  serve  ex-ofhcio.  It  has  all  the  powers 
of,  and  acts  for,  the  Board  of  Trustees  when  that  body  is  not  in  session.  Its  functions  are  largely 
financial,  but  may  extend  to  any  phase  of  the  university  interests. 


Rt.  Rev.  Thomas  F.  Gailor 
Chancellor 

Bishop  Thomas  F.  Gailor,  throughout  his  long  connection  with  the  univer- 
sity, has  taken  an  active  part  in  its  development,  and  to  a  large  extent  has 
moulded  its  sentiments  and  traditions.  Among  his  varied  activities  have  been 
the  laying  of  the  cornerstone  of  Wash  Hall  in  1890,  and  that  of  Thompson 
Hall,  the  Union,  a  few  years  later.  He  also  has  written  the  Sewanee  Hymn 
and  has  composed  several  beautiful  Sewanee  Apostrophes.  In  1882  he  was 
appointed  professor  of  ecclesiastical  history  and  in  the  next  year  chaplain  of  the 
university.  He  continued  in  these  positions  until  1890,  when  he  was  made  vice- 
chancellor,  serving  for  three  years.  In  1908  he  was  elected  chancellor,  and  has 
continued  uninterruptedly  in  this  place  for  the  past  twenty-two  years. 

Bishop  Gailor  has  likewise  been  active  in  the  general  work  of  the  church 
during  this  period.  He  was  made  a  deacon  in  1879  and  a  priest  the  next  year. 
In  1898  he  succeeded  to  the  bishopric  of  Tennessee  on  the  death  of  Bishop 
Quintard.  Since  then  he  has  been  chairman  of  the  House  of  Bishops,  presiding 
bishop  and  president  of  the  National  Council.  He  is  again  attending  the  Lam- 
beth Conference  in   England  this  spring  and  summer. 

He  holds  the  following  degrees:  A.B.  and  A.M.,  Racine  College;  S.T.B. 
and  S.T.D.,  General  Theological  Seminary;  S.T.D.,  Columbia;  D.D.,  Trinity, 
University  of  the  South,  and  Oxford;  LL.D.,  Oglethorpe. 


Dr.  B.  F.  Finney 

I  ice-Chan  cellar 

Dr.  B.  F.  Finney  was  first  associated  with  Sewanee  as  a  student  in  1885.  After 
graduating  from  Virginia  Polytechnic  Institute  at  Blacksburg  and  engaging  in  private 
business  for  some  years,  he  was  made  vice-chancellor  of  the  university  in  1922. 

During  these  eight  years  as  vice-chancellor  Dr.  Finney,  or  "Uncle  Ben,"  as  he 
is  affectionately  called  by  the  students,  has  been  able  to  liquidate  the  debts  of  the 
university  and  secure  an  endowment  which  easily  removes  the  possibility  of  financial 
trouble  in  the  future.  He  has  likewise  been  responsible  for  much  material  development 
on  the  mountain — three  new  dormitories,  including  the  new  Tuckaway  Inn,  have  been 
constructed  and  improvements  have  been  made  in  the  athletic  field  house  and  Sewanee 
Military  Academy. 

Throughout  his  entire  life  Dr.  Finney  has  been  interested  and  active  in  church 
and  educational  work.  Before  coming  to  Sewanee  he  devoted  much  time  to  the 
Brotherhood  of  St.  Andrews,  of  which  organization  he  has  been  secretary  and  vice- 
president.  In  1 9 13  he  was  elected  to  the  Board  of  Regents  of  the  University  and  at 
the  present  time  is  a  trustee  of  St.  Katherine's,  a  girls'  school  at  Bolivar,  Term.,  and 
also  the  executive  head  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Columbia  Institute,  a  girls'  pre- 
paratory school  at  Columbia,  Term.  Both  of  these  institutions  are  connected  with 
the  Episcopal  Church.  In  recognition  of  his  valuable  services,  he  was  given  the  hon- 
orary degree  of  LL.D.  from  Hobart  College,  Geneva,  New  York.

Dr.  George  M.  Baker 

Dean 

Dr.  Baker  has  spent  his  entire  life  in  educational  work  (with  the  exception  of 
several  years  during  which  he  was  connected  with  the  American  expeditionary  force 
in  France).  He  graduated  from  Yale  University  in  1900,  obtaining  his  Ph.D.  degree 
from  that  institution  a  few  years  later.  For  nine  years  he  was  an  instructor  of 
German  at  Yale,  after  which  he  became  head  of  the  German  Department  at  the 
William  Penn  Charter  School,  Philadelphia.  During  this  period  he  also  studied  at 
the  Universities  of  Berlin  and   Munich. 

Dr.  Baker  came  to  Sewanee  in  19 17  as  professor  of  Germanic  languages  and  was 
appointed  dean  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  in  1920.  During  the  ten  years 
he  has  held  this  position  the  requirements  for  entrance,  classroom  work  and  degrees 
have  been  raised  considerably,  the  number  of  transfer  students  has  been  reduced  and 
the  general  scholastic  tone  of  the  college  has  been  improved. 

During  the  war  Dr.  Baker  was  connected  with  the  General  Staff  College  of  the 
American  expeditionary  force  in  France,  later  seeing  general  staff  duty  in  Germany 
with  the  army  of  occupation. 

He  is  well  known  as  a  student  of  Germanic  literature,  being  the  editor  of  "Ger- 
man Stories"  and  Kleist's  "Prinz  von  Hotnnurg."  He  has  also  contributed  articles 
to  the  "Journal  of  Germanic  Philology,"  "Modern  Philology,"  the  "Sewanee  Re^ 
view"  and  "Modern  Language  Notes." 

Because  of  his  knowledge  of  international  affairs,  Dr.  Baker  was  sent  to  Geneva 
by  the  Carnegie  Institute  for  International  Peace  in  1927  for  the  purpose  of  studying 
the  organization  of  the  League  of  Nations,  World  Court  and  other  institutions.

Sewanee  is  one  of  the  few  universities  throughout  the  country  in 
which  each  dormitory  is  presided  over  by  a  matron.  These  ladies  not 
only  create  a  certain  social  dignity,  but  take  a  personal  interest  in  the 
men  with  whom  they  come  in  contact,  ministering  to  their  spiritual 
and  physical  needs,  and  making  an  atmosphere  more  home  like  and 
pleasant. 

On  May  5th  Mrs.  Fannie  Preston  died  at  Sewanee  in  her  fifty- 
second  year  as  a  matron  and  in  the  ninety-sixth  year  of  her  life.  She 
was  indeed  the  mother  of  hundreds  of  Sewanee  men  who  had  come 
within  her  care  and  friendship,  and  her  passing  is  a  real  loss  to  the 
mountain.

The  proctors  of  the  university  are  chosen  from  the  outstanding  mem- 
bers of  the  Order  of  Gownsmen  by  the  vice-chancellor.  Their  duty  con- 
sists in  maintaining  discipline,  both  in  their  respective  dormitories  and 
on  the  campus.  It  will  be  seen  that  in  this  instance  Sewanee  has  departed 
from  the  Oxford  tradition  by  making  its  proctors  members  of  the  stu- 
dent body.

The  Honor  Council  consists  of  two  seniors,  two  juniors,  one  sopho- 
more and  one  freshman  from  the  college  and  one  member  of  the  Theo- 
logical School.  Before  this  body  all  infringements  of  the  honor  system 
are  brought,  and  it  passes  judgment  upon  the  cases,  having  the  power 
to  acquit  or  to  punish. 

This  year  there  was  considerable  agitation  concerning  the  honor 
system,  and  a  vote  was  taken  of  the  entire  student  body  to  determine 
whether  it  should  be  abolished,  modified  or  kept  in  its  present  form. 
Only  two  in  the  entire  student  body  voted  to  do  away  with  it;  the 
majority  voted  to  retain  the  system  unchanged.

This  organization,  composed  of  two  members  from  each  class  in  the 
college  and  two  members  from  the  Theological  School,  plays  an  active 
part  in  the  everyday  life  of  the  students. 

For  the  first  time  this  year  it  maintained  the  former  home  of  Miss 
Sarah  Barnwell  Elliott  as  a  music  studio  for  the  choir  and  Glee  Club. 
In  addition  it  sponsored  a  program  of  Lenten  speakers,  which  included 
such  men  as  Bishops  Juhan  and  Penick,  Dr.  Charles  Jefferson  Miller, 
president  of  the  American  College  of  Surgeons,  and  Mr.  Coleman  Jen- 
nings of  Washington,   D.  C. 

It  also  distributed  the  Lenten  and  Easter  offerings  to  the  mountain 
missions  around  Sewanee. 


OUR  men  met  in  Washington,  the  nation's  capital.  One  was 
the  President  of  the  United  States,  Theodore  Roosevelt. 
Turning  to  Major  Archie  Butt,  his  aide,  he  said:  "Butt, 
where  were  you  educated?"  "Sewanee,  sir,"  said  Butt.  Dr. 
Cary  Grayson,  later  admiral  and  personal  physician  to  Presi- 
dent Wilson,  was  one  of  the  others.  He  spoke  up:  "I  went  there  too." 
Roosevelt  turned  to  the  third  man — the  man  without  whom  the  Panama 
Canal  could  not  have  been  built — General  William  C.  Gorgas.  "And 
where  were  you  educated,  Gorgas?"  the  President  asked.  "Sewanee, 
sir,"  came  the  answer.  The  President  was  deeply  impressed.  He  made 
many  inquiries  about  the  little  university  which  produced  big  men. 
Then  he  wrote:  "I  know  of  no  university  of  the  same  size  in  any  part 
of  our  country  which  has  done  more  for  the  cause  of  good  citizenship. 
It  is  called  'The  University  of  the  South,'  but  it  is  much  more  than  that. 
Its  welfare  should  be  dear  to  all  Americans  who  are  both  patriotic  and 
farsighted." 


The  University  of  the  South  at  Sewanee  lies  midway  between  Nash- 
ville and  Chattanooga.  It  is  a  small,  compact  institution,  situated  in 
the  center  of  a  magnificently  forested  domain  of  ten  thousand  acres 
which  the  university  owns  and  controls.  Within  five  minutes'  walk  of 
the  university  campus  in  any  direction  is  the  untouched  forest.  Here  are 
also  deep  valleys  running  off  the  plateau  on  which  Sewanee  stands,  val- 
leys surrounded  by  huge  cliffs  of  rock  and  containing  in  almost  every 
case  rapidly  running  streams.  Such  a  setting  is  almost  unique  in  Amer- 
ican educational  institutions. 

The  university  itself  consists  of  a  College  of  Liberal  Arts  and  Sciences 
and  a  Theological  School.  The  corporation  also  directs  its  preparatory 
school,  the  Sewanee  Military  Academy.  The  College  of  Liberal  Arts 
and  Sciences  is  the  heart  of  the  university.  It  is  here  that  all  the  dif- 
ferent courses  are  given  toward  the  construction  of  a  liberal  education 
in  the  highest  sense  of  that  phrase.

Too  much  cannot  be  said  of  Captain  Bill 
Cravens'  performance  during  the  past  football 
season.  Himself  a  steady  and  consistent,  though 
not  a  flashy  player,  he  ran  his  team  well  and 
proved  a  leader  of  ability.  In  recognition  of 
his  services  both  on  the  gridiron  and  on  the  cin- 
der track,  where  he  was  a  hurdler  of  ability, 
Hill  was  awarded  the  Porter  cup  of  1 930  as  the 
athlete   most  valuable   to   Sewanee   in   that  vear. 


Sterling  'T^abs  lianker  of  Tulane 


Keview  of  the  Season 

Sewanee,  46;  T.  P.  I.,  0 

Sewanee  inaugurated  her  1929  season  by  swamping  Tennessee  Tech  by  the  overwhelming 
score  of  forty-six  to  nothing.  The  Tigers  started  with  a  rurh  and  never  stopped  during  the 
whole  sixty  minutes  of  play.  The  visitors  never  came  any  closer  than  the  Tigers'  forty-five-yard 
line  and  were  on  the  defensive  throughout  the  whole  game.  Sewanee  uncovered  a  galaxy  of 
stars  in  the  backfield  led  by  Worrall  and  Boyd.  Barron,  Wise,  Philips  and  Jeffries  gave  a  neat 
exhibition  of  play.  In  the  line  Captain  Cravens,  Stimson,  Page,  Sterling,  Patton  and  Dawson 
were  the  luminaries.  The  Tigers  built  up  a  comfortable  lead  by  scoring  four  touchdowns  in 
the  first  half.  Dawson  snagged  a  beautiful  pass  and  raced  across  the  line  to  bring  the  stands 
to  their  feet.  In  the  second  half  Charlie  Boyd  cut  over  tackle,  shook  several  would-be  tacklers 
off  and  raced  seventy  yards  for  a  touchdown.  Worrall  made  the  last  touchdown  of  the  day 
when  he  darted  around  end  for  about  six  yards. 

Sewanee,  6;  Transylvania,  6 

In  a  sea  of  mud  Transylvania  and  Sewanee  battled  to  a  six-six  tie  on  Hardee  Field.  Three 
minutes  after  the  beginning  of  play  it  was  impossible  to  hold  the  slick  pigskin.  The  visitors 
used  the  Minnesota  shift  which  gained  them  a  lot  of  ground  during  the  first  quarter,  but  which 
later  on  drew  for  them  many  five-yard  penalties.  Sewanee  was  the  victim  of  an  unfortunate 
break  in  the  first  quarter  when  a  high  short  punt  hit  one  of  her  own  men  and  the  visitors 
recovered  on  the  Purple's  nine-yard  line.  The  visitors  took  advantage  of  this  break  to  drive 
over  a  counter  and  from  then  on  for  the  most  part  stayed  on  the  defensive.  Sewanee  came 
back  in  the  second  half  with  lots  of  drive,  but  was  unable  to  gain  when  it  really  needed  the 
yardage.  Dame  Fortune  finally  smiled  on  the  Purple  Warriors  and  they  recovered  a  fumble 
on  the  visitors'  thirty-five-yard  line.  On  the  next  play  Worrall,  the  phantom,  broke  off  tackle, 
shook  off  some  would-be  tacklers  and  raced  thirty-five  yards  for  a  much  needed  touchdown. 
The  try  for  the  extra  point  failed.  The  remainder  of  the  game  was  fought  out  in  midfield. 
Worrall  and  Boyd  played  great  ball  for  the  Tigers.  Patton  and  Stimson  were  veritable  "Rocks 
of  Gibraltar"  in  the  line.     Camp  and  Haseldon  bore  the  brunt  of  the  visitors'  attack. 

Sewanee,  14;  L.  S.  U.,  27 

Sewanee's  Purple  Tigers  faced  their  first  conference  opponents  in  the  Tiger  of  Louisiana 
State.  It  was  a  great  battle,  and  although  the  Purple  fought  valiantly  it  was  never  able  to 
overcome  the  lead  that  the  Tigers  from  L.  S.  U.  piled  up  in  the  first  quarter.  The  final  score 
was  twenty-seven  to  fourteen  in  favor  of  L.  S.  U.  Holden,  Hendrix  and  Reeves  skirted  the 
ends  and  ran  off  tackle  in  the  first  quarter  to  give  the  Tigers  three  touchdowns.  Sewanee  staged  a 
comeback  and  Worrall  ran  through  the  whole  L.  S.  U.  team  until  he  was  forced  out  of  bounds 
on  their  thirteen-vard  line.     At  this  point  the  Purple   fumbled  and  the  rallv  was  crushed.     The 

8i 


Purple  was  not  to  be  denied,  for  a  little  before  the  half  ended  Boyd  tossed  a  pass  into  the  arms 
of  Captain  Cravens,  who  eluded  several  tacklers  and  raced  sixty  yards  for  a  touchdown.  Boyd 
kicked  the  extra  point.  Sewanee  made  a  decisive  comeback  in  the  second  half,  playing  the 
Baton  Rouge  boys  on  even  terms.  Boyd  ploughed  through  the  line  in  the  third  quarter  for  the 
Tigers  second  score  nad  added  the  extra  point.  In  the  matter  of  first  downs  both  teams  had 
to  be  content  with  fourteen  apiece.  Boyd  and  Worrall  were  threats  at  all  times  to  the  opposing 
teams.  Patton,  Bean  and  Stimson  smeared  many  plays  in  the  making.  Captain  Cravens  was 
a  defensive  star  and  was  on  the   receiving  end  of  many  passes. 

Sewanee,  33;  Cumberland,  6 

Although  outweighed  some  fifteen  pounds  to  the  man  the  Tigers  uncovered  a  relentless  attack 
that  swept  their  slower  opponents  off  their  feet.  The  Bulldogs  started  out  with  a  big  rush 
and  on  a  series  of  off-tackle  plays  and  line  smashes  drove  the  ball  to  the  Tigers'  twelve-yard 
line.  At  this  point  they  tried  to  use  a  little  strategy  and  passed,  but  it  fell  into  the  open  arms 
of  Abe  Philips,  who  raced  seventy-five  yards  up  the  field  before  being  driven  out  of  bounds 
on  the  visitors'  twelve-yard  line.  The  Tigers  in  three  plays  had  sent  Jeffries  over  with  the 
first  counter  and  they  were  never  threatened  seriously  during  the  remainder  of  the  game.  Boyd 
gave  a  wonderful  exhibition  of  running  by  dashing  through  the  whole  Cumberland  team  for 
seventy  yards  and  a  touchdown.  Charlie  Barron  intercepted  a  pass  in  the  fourth  quarter  and 
unmolested  sprinted  fifty  yards  across  the  last  white  line  for  another  score.  Sterling,  Page 
and   Cravens  were  the   Tiger  stars  in  the   line,   while   Barron,   Philips   and   Young   stood   out   in

the  backfield.     Woody  and  Cook  were  most  consistent  for  the  visitors  in  the  line,  while  Standard 
and  Taylor  bore  the  brunt  in  the  backtield. 

Sewanee,  7;  Alabama,  35 

October,  1929,  meant  the  meeting  of  the  Crimson  and  the  Purple  again  in  combat.  The 
Crimson  showed  a  complete  reversal  of  form  from  the  Saturday  before  when  they  had  fallen 
before  the  mighty  Vols,  and  smashed  the  thin  Purple  wall  into  submission  with  a  battering  ram 
in  the  person  of  Mr.  Tony  Holm.  In  an  effort  to  break  into  the  scoring  column  the  fighting 
Purple  Tiger  sought  the  air  and  in  this  they  found  a  real  weapon.  They  tried  several  passes 
and  completed  some  for  neat  gains,  but  not  until  the  last  play  of  the  game  did  they  score.  A 
pass  from  Boyd  found  its  way  into  the  arms  of  Hugh  Goodman,  who  stepped  across  the  goal 
line.  Boyd  made  the  try  good  for  the  extra  point.  Sewanee's  small  pair  of  ends,  Captain 
Cravens  and  Cotton  Ezzell,  distinguished  themselves  nobly  by  time  and  again  worming  their 
way  through  the  Tide's  offense  and  throwing  their  heavier  opponents  for  losses.  Sterling  and 
Stimson  played  great  ball  in  the  line,  while  Jeffries  and  Green  played  the  best  defensive  game 
in  the  backfield.  Hugh  Goodman  was  on  the  receiving  end  of  some  neat  passes.  Holm  was 
the  Alabama  star  throughout  the  game. 

Sewanee,  6;  Mississippi,  6 

The  proverbial  Mississippi  mud   proved  tco  much  for  the  Tigers,  for  their  pony  backs  were

unable  to  stand  up,  although  they  outgained  their  heavier  opponents  at  will.  "Ole  Miss"  was 
invincible  in  her  own  territory,  and  the  Mountaineers  had  to  resort  to  the  aerial  route  to  gain 
their  only  score.  A  pass  from  Worrall  to  the  fleet-footed  Goodman  in  the  last  quarter  was  good 
for  the  needed  yardage.  "Ole  Miss"  had  welcomed  her  alumni  on  Homecoming  Day  by  march- 
ing straight  down  the  field  in  the  early  part  of  the  first  quarter  for  her  touchdown.  Boyd  and 
Worrall  were  the  Tiger  mainstays  and  gained  at  will  through  the  heavier  line.  Sewanee  had 
a  total  of  eighteen  first  downs  to  her  opponent's  six.  The  Purple's  comeback  in  the  second  half 
was  magnificent,  and  they  registered  twelve  first  downs,,  while  "Ole  Miss"  was  able  to  garner 
only  one.  Sterling,  Stimson  and  French  were  superb  in  the  line  for  Sewanee.  Woodruff  and 
Wilcox  were   the   best  gainers   for  "Ole   Miss",   while   Jones   and    Peeples   stood   out   in   the   line. 


Sewanee,  0;  Southwestern,  9 


Sewanee  suffered  a  terrible  reversal  of  form  the  following  week-end  to  drop  a  weird  exhibi- 
tion of  football  to  a  fighting  Southwestern  team.  This  was  the  first  time  this  year  that  the 
Tigers  were  unable  to  dent  the  scoring  column.  The  Lynx  had  pointed  to  this  game  as  their 
biggest  of  the  year  and  they  succeeded  in  breaking  up  the  aerial  attack  of  the  Tigers.  The 
first  downs  were  even  with  each  team  having  nine.  A  blocked  punt  gave  the  Lynx  a  safety  in 
the  first  half.  The  Lynx,  however,  added  insult  to  injury  by  blocking  another  Tiger  punt  in 
the  fourth  quarter  and  this  time  they  recovered  for  a  touchdown  and  made  the  try  for  the  extra 
point  good.  Two  Memphis  boys,  Stimson  and  Page,  played  great  ball  for  the  Tigers.  They 
were  all  over  the  field  and  were  in  every  play.     Patton  and  French  also  broke  through  on  many 


Worrall  and  £z<ell  ^reak  Through  ^Vandy's  Interferenc 


occasions  to  throw  the  Lynx  for  losses.     Boyd  and  Worrall  played  best  in  the  hackfield.     Brown 
and  Hightower  were  the  luminaries  for  Southwestern. 


Sewanee,  0;  Tulane,  18 


A  Green  Wave  which  flowed  and  ebbed,  but  mostly  ebbed.  Therein  is  the  story  of  the 
Sewanee-Tulane  scrap  which  finally  ended  in  the  champion's  favor,  eighteen  to  nothing.  Banker 
and  Armstrong  were  thrown  for  repeated  losses  by  Captain  Cravens  and  John  Ezzell  who  were 
in  every  play.  The  first  half  was  scoreless,  with  Worrall  having  the  better  of  the  blonde  Banker 
in  a  punting  duel.  Tulane  was  able  to  gain  ground  in  the  open  field,  but  was  never  able  to 
penetrate  any  further  than  the  twenty-five-yard  line.  The  second  half  began  optimistically 
for  the  Tigers  when  Captain  Cravens  caught  the  kickoff  and  ran  it  back  fifty-five  yards  to 
Tulane's  thirty-five-yard  line.  Two  passes  from  Worrall  to  Phillips  and  Cravens  put  the  ball 
on  the  ten-yard  line,  but  Tulane's  defense  stiffened  and  the  Tigers  were  powerless.  Tulane  took 
the  ball  hack  up  the  field  for  a  score.  Another  march  down  the  field  netted  another  and  Whatley 
made  the  third  on  a  twenty-five-yard  run.  Cravens,  Ezzell,  French  and  Patton  shone  for  the 
Tigers,  while  Worrall  was  the  backfield  star.  Banker  and  Armstrong  carried  the  brunt  of  the 
attack  for  the  Wave. 

Sewanee,  6;  Vanderbilt,  26 

Dan  McGugin  pulled  a  Knute  Rockne  on  the  Purple  Warriors  by  starting  his  second  string 
line   up.     The   Tigers  clearly   showed  they  were  to   be   reckoned   with  by   marching  the   kick-off 


Worrall   ^uns  from   'Punt   "formation 


back  down  the  field,  only  to  lose  it  when  one  of  Worrall's  passes  fell  into  the  arms  of  Askew, 
who  raced  sixty-five  yards  back  up  the  field  before  being  brought  to  earth  on  the  Purple's  four- 
yard  strip.  Vandy  fumbled  on  the  next  play  and  the  Purple  recovered.  At  this  point  the 
first  string  of  the  Commodores  entered  the  fray  and  with  the  aid  of  McGaughey  drove  over  two 
touchdowns.  The  half  ended  with  the  Commodores  out  in  front,  thirteen  to  nothing.  The  Tigers 
came  back  in  the  second  half  and  with  two  first  downs  in  succession,  things  locked  good.  On 
the  next  play  Worrall  was  thrown  for  a  loss;  he  kicked  and  the  ball  struck  a  Vandy  man. 
Phillips  recovered  for  the  Tigers.  The  Tigers  were  halted  at  this  point,  however.  The  Com- 
modores scored  two  more  touchdowns  in  the  third  and  fourth  quarters,  respectively,  McGaughev 
making  both  of  these.  Coach  "Kirk's"  boys  were  not  to  be  denied,  however.  In  the  last  of  the 
fourth  quarter  a  pass  from  Worrall  to  Captain  Cravens  was  good  for  forty  yards,  placing  the 
ball  on  Variety's  three-yard  line.  Worrall  plunged  over  on  the  first  play  for  the  score.  Captain 
Cravens,  Pete  Young  and  Ezzell  played  great  defensive  ball  for  the  Purple  and  White.  They 
were  in  practically  every  play  and  Craven's  snagging  the  pass  ultimately  paved  the  way  for 
the  Tiger  score.  Worrall  was  easily  the  star  of  the  game,  getting  off  to  some  neat  gains  and 
making  a  large  share  of  the  tackles.  His  punts  were  well  timed  and  very  consistent.  McGaughey 
was  the  bomb  shell  that  wrecked  the  Tiger  hopes.  He  gained  almost  at  will  and  was  respon- 
sible for  all  four  Commodore  touchdowns.  Captain  Cravens,  Pete  Young  and  Bobbie  Worrall 
rang  down  the  curtain  to  their  college  careers  in  a  blaze  of  glory. 


The  Fresliimain  Season 

In  answer  to  the  first  call  of  the  season  a  thin  and  light  squad  of  freshmen  turned  out  and 
Uncle  Ben  Cubbage  took  them  under  his  wing  to  make  them  into  college  players.  Only  a 
few  big  men  bolstered  the  weight  of  the  aggregation,  and  not  many  of  them  had  been  heard 
of  before  they  came  to  the  Mountain.  However,  they  displayed  speed  and  enthusiasm  and 
were  soon  on  the  way  to  organizing  a  team  out  of  chaos. 

The  S.  M.  A.  Cadets  were  the  opponents  for  the  first  real  scrimmage  of  the  season.  The 
game  on  the  whole  was  ragged,  for  neither  team  had  had  more  than  two  weeks  of  practice. 
S.  M.  A.  pushed  over  the  first  touchdown  on  a  blocked  punt,  but  the  freshmen  came  back  not 
long  after  to  tie  the  score  at  six  and  six  and  the  contest  ended  with  that  count.  Morton  and 
Manthey  at  the  tackles  showed  plenty  of  possibility,  while  Voss  and  Holland  held  down  the 
guard  positions  to  good  advantage.  Egleston  at  center  snapped  the  ball  with  deadly  accuracy. 
Huntley  as  substitute  center  showed  that  he  was  willing.  Piplar  and  Craig  on  the  ends  kept 
down  the  long  runs  around  the  wings.  Fitch  was  an  able  field  general,  with  Robinson,  Under- 
wood and  Stimson  obeying  his  commands  for  many  gains. 

The  Yearlings  battled  the  next  game  of  the  season  to  a  scoreless  tie  with  Morgan.  Gene 
McLure  came  in  for  great  work  throughout  the  game,  both  in  punting  and  in  running  the  ball. 
He  booted  the  ball  for  an  average  of  forty-five  yards  and  made  several  substantial  gains.  Clark 
and  Underwood  contributed  to  the  yardage  gained,  while  Robinson,  handicapped  by  recent 
injuries,  was  unable  to  get  going.  Morton,  Egleston  and  Manthey  were  the  stars  of  the  line, 
displaying  lots  of  fight.  Morgan  had  a  pass  attack  that  the  first  year  Tigers  were  able  to 
offset  only  with  McLure's  punting.  A  pass  formation  from  a  screened  end  run  was  a  thorn  in 
the  side  of  the  freshmen  ends,  and  netted  the  opponents  many  yards  towards  the  goal.  At  crucial 
moments  the  pass  attack  of  the  freshmen  failed  to  materialize  and  the  ball  often  went  over  when 
they  were  within  scoring  distance. 

After  a  rest  of  two  weeks  the  Yearlings  invaded  Murfreesboro  to  battle  the  freshmen  from 
the  Tennessee  Teachers'  College.  McLure  played  his  first  game  as  captain  of  the  squad  and  showed 
that  he  was  worthy  of  the  position.  His  team,  however,  played  ragged  football,  but  showed 
that  they  should  have  had  it  over  the  Teachers,  who  put  forth  no  stellar  brand  of  football. 
For  the  first  counter  of  the  game,  the  Teachers  received  a  beautiful  punt  from  the  toe  of 
McLure  to  make  a  freak  run  back  down  the  field  across  the  goal  line.  Their  other  score  came 
when  they  punched  the  hall  within  scoring  distance  and  then  heaved  a  pass  over  the  heads  of 
the  frosh  backs.  In  the  final  minute  of  the  game  Joe  Robinson  tore  around  and  through  the 
entire  opposing  team  for  the  freshmen's  only  score.  Knorr  opened  the  way  for  Joe  and  let  him 
do  the  rest.  McLure  played  his  usual  good  game,  but  the  other  backs  had  a  hard  time  getting 
started.  Stimson  backed  up  the  line,  doing  good  work  all  the  time.  Smith,  on  end,  Egleston  at  cen- 
ter and  Morton  at  guard  were  the  stars  of  the  line.    On  one  occasion  the  entire  line  showed  what 


87 


the  old  Sewanee  spirit  is,  when,  with  their  backs  to  the  scoring  line,  they  held  the  Teachers  for 
four  downs  and  then  took  possession  of  the  ball  to  bring  it  back  down  the  field. 

The  fourth  game  of  the  season  brought  the  freshmen  from  the  University  of  Chattanooga  to 
the  Mountain.  They  were  a  huge  lot  of  men  for  a  freshman  team,  but  when  they  got  out 
there  on  Cope  Field  they  proved  the  statement  that  the  bigger  they  come  the  harder  they  fall. 
The  Sewanee  freshmen  outplayed  them  throughout  the  game  in  spite  of  the  indications  deduced 
from  a  six  to  nothing  score  in  favor  of  the  Moccasins.  The  game  was  contested  in  a  sea  of 
mud  and  the  clouds  were  so  thick  on  the  mountain  that  it  was  impossible  to  see  from  one  side 
of  the  field  to  the  other.  The  boys  from  Chattanooga  made  only  the  one  bid  for  a  score.  The 
first  half  was  mostly  a  punting  duel,  but  the  Tigers  took  the  ball  on  the  offensive  in  the  second 
period.  They  seemed  to  lack  the  punch  to  put  it  over,  and  several  times  lost  the  ball  while 
well  within  the  scoring  territory.  McLure  and  Underwood  were  the  brilliants  in  the  backfield, 
while  Morton,  Eggleston  and  Manthey  held  their  front  line  positions  like  veterans.  McLure's 
steady  kicking  power  was  the  feature  of  the  game  and  Morton's  steady  ability  to  crash  the  line, 
which  netted  him  one  blocked  punt,  was  disastrous  to  the  opponents.  The  Yearlings  fought  and 
tore  their  way  into  the  Moccasins'  team  with  good  work  and  the  real  spirit.  On  a  dry  and 
clear  field,  it  is  certain  that  they  would  have  been  picked  to  win.  Their  teamwork  was  a  vast 
improvement  over  the  first  games  of  the  season,  as  was  their  knowledge  of  the  game. 

Hopelessly  outclassed  and  outweighed  by  a  heavy,  fast  Vanderbilt  team,  which,  it  was  rumored, 
could  hold  the  Vanderbilt  varsity  scoreless,  the  freshmen  went  down  under  a  71-0  score  in  the 
last  game  of  the  season.  By  some  good  fortune  our  ancient  rivals  had  obtained  one  of  the 
greatest  first-year  teams  seen  in  the  South.  Every  man  on  the  Sewanee  Yearlings'  team  was 
up  against  the  biggest  odds  of  the  season  and  every  one  played  his  heart  out.  That  unsurmount- 
able  score  seemed  to  discourage  not  one  of  the  wearers  of  the  Purple,  for  they  continued  with 
the  old  fight  to  the  last  whistle.  There  is  nothing  but  praise  for  those  men  who  played  on 
McGugin  Field  that  day  because  in  spite  of  the  overwhelming  odds,  they  showed  Nashville 
what  is  the  meaning  of  Sewanee  spirit.  Early  in  the  game  the  freshmen  were  deprived  of  one 
of  their  fishy  backs  when  Robinson  went  out  of  the  game  with  a  badly  twisted  knee.  McLure 
played  such  a  game  as  he  had  never  before  put  up.  His  running,  passing  and  punting  comprised 
a  stellar  performance,  and  were  an  inspiration  to  the  entire  team.  Stimson,  backing  up  the  line 
and  punting  the  ball,  was  one  of  the  stars  of  the  backfield,  while  Underwood  did  some  good 
defensive  work.  Clark  as  quarter  led  his  team  with  more  than  his  usual  ability.  In  the  line 
from  end  to  end  the  boys  showed  that  they  knew  the  game  and  that  they  could  fight,  but  it  was 
of  little  use  against  the  heavy  primary  defense  of  the  opponents.  It  was  only  through  sheer 
brute  strength  that  the  Vandy  frosh  could  pierce  our  freshman  line.  The  last  game  of  the 
season  ended  disastrously  for  the  Sewanee  freshmen,  but  don't  forget  that  they  fought  every 
minute  of  the  contest. 


BASKETBALL 


THE   CAP   AND    GOWN 


Review  of  the  Season 

Sewanee  experienced  a  very  successful  basketball 
season.  She  won  six  of  her  ten  conference  games, 
although  she  was  outscored  by  her  opponents  by 
fifteen  points.  She  was  also  handicapped  in  that 
Coach  Emerson  was  only  able  to  come  up  three 
nights  a  week  to  instruct  his  boys.  The  Tigers 
have  even  brighter  prospects  next  year  in  that  they 
only  lose  two  men — Captain  Hines  and  Frank  Thig- 
pen.  In  the  way  of  substitutes  and  prospective  var- 
sity material  the  Tigers  are  receiving  very  good 
aid    from   the    freshmen. 

The  Tigers  started  their  season  off  in  fine  style 
by  successfully  trimming  the  Chattanooga  V.  M. 
C.  A.  by  the  overwhelming  score  of  fortv-seven  to 
twenty-six.  Goodman,  Dawson  and  Yates  led  the 
Tiger  scoring  by  amassing  thirty-five  of  the  forty- 
seven  markers  for  the  Tigers.  Captain  Hines  was 
easily  the  defensive  star  for  the  Tigers  and  kept 
the  visiting  total  down  during  the  whole  fray. 
Bob  Owens,  a  former  Tiger,  played  well  for  the 
visitors. 

Back  after  the  holidays  the  Tigers  dropped  a 
rather  loosely  played  game  to  the  Dupont  Rayon 
plant.  The  final  score  was  thirty-nine  to  twenty- 
nine  against  the  Tigers.  Dupont  exploded  a  bomb 
shell  in  the  Tiger  camp  in  the  person  of  Duck  Rob- 
erts, who  led  the  scoring  with  fourteen  points. 
Dawson  starred  for  the  Tigers  and  rang  up  thir- 
teen   points. 

Penn-Dixie  took  the  measure  of  the  Tigers  in  an 
overtime  affair  by  a  thirty  to  twenty-eight  count. 
Captain  Hines  was  the  offensive  and  defensive  star 
for  the  Tigers,  having  ten  points  to  his  credit  and 
being  a  demon  on  the  defense.  Goodman  also  played 
a  nice  floor  game  for  the  Tigers.  McCoy  was  the 
star  for  the  visitors. 

That  week-end  proved  disastrous  for  the  Tigers, 
for  they  dropped  a  loosely  played  affair  to  the 
Chattanooga  Moccasins  also  The  Tigers  were  dead 
on  their  feet  and  couldn't  shoot,  losing  by  the  rather 
one-sided  score  of  thirty-four  to  twenty-three. 

What  a  difference  two  days  make.  The  Tigers 
came  to  life  against  the  ferocious  Clemson  Tiger, 
building  up  a  commanding  lead  in  the  first  half 
and  fighting  on  even  terms  in  the  second  to  hold 
to  it.  Dawson,  Yates  and  McRee  were  the  big  guns 
on  the  offense,  while  Captain  Hines  and  Hugh 
Goodman  were  equally  as  great  on  the  defense. 
The  final  score  was  twenty-six  to  twenty-four.    Cap- 


tain  Hines  was  a  source  of  inspiration  to  his  men 
throughout  the  game. 

A  diminutive  sophomore  by  the  name  of  Smith 
was  the  best  threat  Clemson  had  and  led  their 
scoring  with  four  field  goals.  Woodruff  starred 
on  the  defense,  breaking  up  many  Purple  passes 
inside  the  foul  line. 

Sewanee  was  right.  She  completely  humbled  the 
proud  Black  and  Gold  quintet  for  the  first  time  in 
the  history  of  the  two  institutions  by  the  crushing 
count  of  thirty-six  to  fifteen.  The  Tigers  were 
never  threatened  from  the  start  and  by  virtue  of 
their  close  guarding  held  the  Black  and  Gold  to 
three  field  goals.  Captain  Hines  and  Goodman 
were  thorns  in  the  side  of  the  Commodore  forwards. 
Havis  Dawson  and  "Piggy"  Thigpen  did  the  scoring 
with  thirteen  and  eight  points,  respectively.  McRee 
got  the  ball  off  the  backboard  and  advanced  it  up 
the  floor  in  fine  style.  Marsh  and  Franklin  starred 
for  the  visitors. 

The  Tigers  made  more  history  the  following  week 
by  beating  the  Ramblers,  forty  to  twenty-two  in 
Nashville.  Thigpen  and  McRee  were  the  big  offen- 
sive guns  for  the  Tigers,  with  thirteen  and  ten 
points,  respectively.  Dawson  played  a  nice  floor 
game.  Hines  and  Goodman  were  bulwarks  on  the 
defense.  Worrall  and  Eaton  were  stars  for  the 
Ramblers. 

A  return  visit  on  the  Mountain  saw  a  scoring 
orgy  which  the  Tigers  finally  won  by  a  sixty-nine 
to  fifty-one  score.  Dawson  and  Goodman  were  re- 
sponsible for  forty  of  the  Purple's  points.  Barron 
and  McRee  both  played  great  floor  games  for  the 
Purple  and  White.  Thomasson  and  Coverdale  were 
best  for  the  losers. 

The  Tigers  slipped  up  on  the  next  game  to  an 
unknown  foe,  Jackson  State  Teachers'  College,  and 
lost  a  weird  exhibition  of  basketball,  twenty-four  to 
eighteen.  The  Tigers  were  ragged  and  not  up  to 
their  usual  form  at  all.  Dawson  and  Goodman 
bore  the  brunt  of  the  offense,  while  Hines  sparkled 
on  the   defense. 

The  Tigers  took  Coach  Frank  Faulkinberry's 
Teachers  over  the  hurdles  in  a  game  that  in  the  last 
part  more  or  less  resembled  a  football  game.  Daw- 
son and  Goodman  starred  in  this  gridiron  court 
battle  and  free-for-all  which  finally  ended  in  the 
Purple's  favor,  forty-eight  to  twenty-five. 

The  Tigers  then  embarked  on  a  trip  into  the 
Old  Dominion.  Their  first  game  was  with  the  V. 
P.  I.  Gobblers  whom  they  subdued  in  a  hectic 
struggle   by  the   figures  of   twenty-seven   to  twenty- 


m 


three.  The  Tigers  were  trailing  at  the  half,  but 
the  sharp  shooting  "Colonel"  Dawson  looped  in 
eighteen  points,  enough  to  win  the  fracas  for  the 
Mountaineers. 

Another  night  found  the  Tigers  encamped  at  Lex- 
ington for  a  tussle  with  V.  M.  I.  "Kaydets."  The 
Tigers'  defense  was  superb,  but  they  were  off  on 
their  shots.  The  first  half  was  a  tight  affair  with 
the  score  deadlocked  four  times.  The  Tigers  eased 
ahead  before  the  half  with  a  one-point  margin. 
Goodman  and  Thigpen  led  the  scoring  with  ten 
and  nine  points,  respectively.  The  riot  act  was 
served  on  Captain  Hines  and  "Big"  John  McRee. 
This  only  stimulated  the  Tiger's  zeal  and  Yates, 
Sterling,  Goodman  and  Thigpen  put  the  game  on 
ice  in  the  last  few  minutes  with  four  successive 
field  goals.  The  final  count  was  thirty-one  to  twen- 
ty-two. 

"It  was  worth  traveling  miles  to  see."  This  was 
what  a  non-partisan  of  both  teams  had  to  say  after 
the  game.  W.  and  L.  conquered  the  Tigers,  thirty- 
five  to  thirty,  but  after  one  of  the  hardest  fights 
they  ever  had  in  their  life.  The  Tigers  played 
together  as  a  coordinated  whole,  and  although  be- 
hind at  the  half-way  mark,  seventeen  to  seven,  thev 
completely  swept  the  Generals  off  their  feet  in  the 
second  canto.  All  of  the  Tigers  played  great  ball 
and  it  would  be  an  injustice  to  name  the  stars. 
Hanna  upset  the  Tigers  by  scoring  thirteen  points. 
Cox  and  Williams  were  both  smothered  by  the 
close  guarding  of  the  Tigers. 

The  Tigers  came  back  from  the  Virginia  trip  and 
on  that  week-end  journeyed  down  to  Nashville  to 
take  the  Commodores  over  the  hurdles  again  by  the 
close  score  of  forty  to  thirty-five.  Dawson,  Hines, 
Thigpen  and  Goodman  proved  too  much  for  the 
Commodores  in  close  places  and,  with  the  score  tied 
in  the  final  stages,  crashed  through  for  a  victory. 
McRee  played  a  wonderful  floor  game  and  fed  the 
ball  to  his  mates  in  fine  style.  Coffee  and  Chalfant 
starred  for  the  Black  and  Gold,  keeping  the  Com- 
modores in  the  game  when  they  seemed  lost. 

Sewanee  lost  a  sorry  exhibition  to  Chattanooga 
on  the  Mountain  by  the  heart-breaking  score  of 
twenty-eight  to  twenty-four.  Goodman  played  the 
whole  game  for  the  Tigers,  contributing  thirteen 
points  and  playing  a  cracking  good  floor  game. 
Donnelly  and  Lotspeich  were  the  big  guns  for  th: 
Moccasins. 

The  Tigers  took  a  trip  into  "Bama".  They 
stopped  off  in  Birmingham  long  enough  to  drop  a 
ragged    decision    to    Birmingham-Southern    by    the 


score  of  thirty-six  to  twenty-four.  The  Tigers 
pulled  a  "Rockne"  by  starting  their  second  string, 
but  this  was  a  grave  mistake.  The  regulars  went 
in  and  did  no  better,  for  the  game  was  too  far 
gone. 

The  next  night  it  was  Tuscaloosa.  The  Tigers 
experienced  a  neat  drubbing  at  the  hands  of  the 
Crimson.  They  fought  hard,  but  the  advantage 
of  height  at  the  pivot  position  was  a  little  too 
much.  The  Crimson  were  on  in  their  shots,  and  hit 
them  with  constant  regularity  from  every  position. 
It  is  useless  to  mention  the  score,  but  they  more 
than   doubled  the  count  on  the  Purple. 

The  Tigers  played  a  return  engagement  with 
State  Teachers  and  tasted  of  defeat  for  the  fifth 
time.  The  Teachers  were  right  and  built  up  a 
lead,  and  although  the  Tigers  tried  valiantly  to 
overcome  this,  they  were  unable  to  and  finally  suc- 
cumbed, thirty-two  to  twenty-six.  Dawson,  Good- 
man and  Hines  were  the  stars  for  the  Mountaineers. 

The  Conference 

Sewanee  bowled  over  the  1929  champions  as  their 
first  opponents  in  the  opening  round  of  the  S.  I.  C. 
basketball  tournament.  The  final  score  was:  Se- 
wanee, twenty-five ;  N.  C.  State,  nineteen.  Good- 
man and  Dawson  led  the  scoring  for  the  Tigers 
and  Hugh's  long  shots  from  out  in  the  center  were 
one  of  the  bright  spots  of  the  first  day's  play. 
Dawson  made  some  beautiful  shots  from  the  side. 
Hines,  McRee  and  Sterling  played  the  best  brand 
of  ball  defensively  that  they  had  played  the  entire 
year. 

Goodman  crashed  through  with  some  nice  shots 
at  critical  moments  to  put  the  game  on  ice  for  the 
Tigers.  Rose  and  Johnson  were  the  stars  for  the 
Wolfpack.  Rose  cashed  in  with  three  field  goals  to 
lead  the  Tarheels'  scoring. 

The  Tigers  tried  desperately  to  tame  the  Wild- 
cats the  following  night,  but  the  breaks  were  against 
them.  They  had  some  really  tall  men,  were  fast 
and  aggressive  and  broke  for  the  basket  in  a  light- 
ning-like fashion.  The  Kentuckians  led  at  the  half, 
sixteen  to  fourteen.  The  second  half  was  a  night- 
mare. McRee  was  put  out  of  the  game  on  excessive 
fouls.  The  Tigers  went  to  pieces  and  the  Wildcats 
went  wild.  The  final  score  was  forty-four  to  twen- 
ty-two. Dawson  was  the  big  offensive  gun  for  the 
Tigers,  while  Goodman  and  Hines  as  usual  played 
well  on  the  defense.  The  three  "Macs" — McBrayer 
and  the  two  McGinnis — spelled  victory  for  the 
Blue  five. 


The  Freshman  Season 


In  the  first  game  of  the  season  the  Freshman  Quintet  lost  to  the  Little  Tigers  of  Sewanee 
Military  Academy  by  a  score  of  nineteen  to  eighteen.  A  gallant  freshman  rally  in  the  last  half 
fell  short  by  one  point,  while  the  Cadets  did  not  mark  up  a  counter  during  this  period.  The  rally 
was  just  too  late.     Morton  and  Hatch  did  the  stellar  work  for  the  freshmen. 

City  High  of  Chattanooga  fell  before  the  frosh  when  they  won  by  a  score  of  thirty-eight  to 
twenty-five.  In  the  first  half  both  teams  seemed  about  even,  and  the  ball  went  through  the  net 
at  frequent  intervals.  The  half  ended  seventeen  to  fifteen  in  favor  of  the  freshmen.  At  the 
beginning  of  the  second  half  City  took  a  lead  of  three  points,  but  the  Tigers  soon  began  to  show 
signs  of  life,  and  after  that  it  was  simply  a  case  of  which  one  got  a  shot  at  the  basket.  Lyttell 
and  Hatch  were  high-point  men  with  eleven  points  apiece. 

Castle  Heights  defeated  the  frosh  in  their  third  game,  twenty-two  to  twenty.  The  freshmen 
trailed  at  the  half,  fourteen  to  six,  but  staged  a  determined  rally  in  the  second  half  that  tied  the 
score.  The  visitors  hung  up  their  winning  tally  in  the  last  forty  seconds  of  play.  Morton  was 
high  scorer  with  eight  points.     Piplar  and  Hatch  played  well  and  scored  four  apiece. 

In  a  game  that  proved  sensational  in  the  closing  minutes  rather  than  any  other  time,  the 
freshmen  lost  to  McCallie,  thirty-eight  to  thirty-five.  The  game  was  slow  in  the  first  half, 
but  quickened  to  a  fast  pace  in  the  second.  Morton  and  Hatch  were  the  shining  lights  in  the 
last  minute  rally  that  cut  the  visitors'  lead   from  twenty-seven  to  eighteen  to  the  final  score. 

In  the  last  game  of  the  season  the  frosh  lost  to  Montgomery  Bell  Academy  in  a  fast  and 
hard-fought  game.  The  frosh  led  throughout  the  first  half,  but  were  unable  to  stand  the  pace 
in  the  last,  and  the  game  went  to  the  visitors,  forty  to  thirty-four.  Their  famed  second-half  rally 
failed  to  materialize  this  time.     Morton  was  high  point  man  with  twelve  counters. 

At  the  end  of  the  season  the  Athletic  Board  of  Control  voted  the  following  freshmen  and 
the  manager  certificates:  Morton,  Stimson,  Hatch,  Lyttell,  Piplar  and  Nash  (manager).  Under- 
wood, Quisenberry,  Hobart  and  Boots  Jeffress  served  as  subs  during  the  year,  and  came  to  the 
assistance  of  the  regulars  on  many  occasions. 


TRACK 


Sewanee,  43%;  Tennessee,  68% 

Tennessee  came  back  to  revenge  the  defeat  the 
Tigers  had  handed  them  a  year  ago.  Sewanee  was 
unable  to  cope  with  the  Vols  in  the  dashes  and 
this  ultimately  spelled  victory  for  the  visitors.  The 
Purple  Clan  was  unable  to  scratch  in  the  century, 
the  mile  cr  the  two  mile.  Corbett  for  the  Vols 
was  high  point  man  of  the  meet  with  a  total  of 
thirteen  points.  Billy  Cravens  was  in  his  usual 
good  form  and  stepped  out  to  win  both  hurdle  races 
to  claim  first  honors  for  the  Mountain  clan.  Stewart, 
captain  of  the  Vols,  negotiated  the  miie  in  the  neat 
time  of  four  minutes  and  thirty-two  seconds  which 
is  good  enough  to  win  in  almost  any  dual  meet. 


Alabama,  74;  Sewanee,  38 

The  Tigers  ran  into  some  hard  luck  down  in 
Tuscaloosa.  This  hard  luck  was  the  Crimson  Tide 
and  for  the  third  time  this  year  they  were  at  the 
height  of  their  form  against  the  Purple  and  White. 
Again  in  the  running  events  the  Tigers  were  a  little 
weak,  although  their  time  had  improved  very  much 
since  the  preceding  Saturday.  Barron  broke  the 
half  mile  record,  but  it  was  not  official,  due  to  the 
fact  that  he  failed  to  place  first.  Captain  Young 
won  the  high  jump  and  placed  second  in  the  shot. 
Our  star  hurdler,  Bill  Cravens,  duplicated  the  feat 
of  the  Saturday  before  by  winning  both  hurdle  races. 
Goodman  ran  a  beautiful  quarter,  but  was  nosed 
out  by  only  a  few  inches  at  the  finish.  Dawson 
won  the  javelin  to  give  him  his  second  letter  of 
the  year  by  winging  it  over  one  hundred  and  fifty 
feet.  Smith  was  the  star  for  the  Crimson  by  virtue 
of  winning  the  century,  the  two-twenty  and  the 
broad   jump. 


Kentucky,  74%;  Sewanee,  43% 

The  Tigers  now  journeyed  up  into  the  Bluegrass 
State  to  have  their  annual  encounter  with  the  Ken- 
tucky Wild  Cat.  The  Tigers  had  taken  a  very  close 
meet  from  the  "Cats"  the  year  before  and  for  this 
reason  they  were  not  %'ery  playful.  "Revenge  was 
sweet"  and  in  a  record-breaking  contest  they  finally 
subdued  the  Tiger  by  a  score  of  73}-^  to  43^2.    The 


Kentuckians  were  forced  to  such  limits  that  they 
broke  three  records  in  the  mile,  the  shotput  and 
the  broad  jump  The  Tigers  were  not  far  behind, 
for  the  fleet-footed  Barron  broke  the  half  mile  rec- 
ord by  stepping  it  off  in  2:2.6  and  lowering  it  by  1.4 
seconds.  Hoppen  almost  jumped  himself  into  a  rec- 
ord in  the  broad  jump,  missing  by  only  an  inch. 
He,  however,  extended  Kelly  of  "Ship  Wreck"  fame 
into  breaking  the  Kentucky  record.  Cravens  still 
kept  his  slate  clean  by  winning  both  the  high  and 
low  hurdles.  Goodman  and  Barron  cinched  their 
third  letters  of  the  year  in  this  meet.  Captain 
Young,  Bean  and  Dawson  accounted  for  the  other 
Tiger  first  places  by  winning  the  high  jump,  discus 
and  javelin,  respectively.  The  mighty  Kelly  was 
the  star  performer  for  the  Wildcats  with  three  first 
places  in  the  century,  two-twenty  and  broad  jump. 
Cravens  with  two  firsts  in  both  hurdles  was  the 
Tiger    luminary. 


Chattanooga,  18;  Sewanee,  94 

The  Purple  came  into  their  own  against  Chat- 
tanooga. It  was  the  most  brilliant  victory  a  Purple 
team  ever  won  on  the  cinder  path.  Chattanooga 
was  unable  to  annex  a  single  first  place  during  the 
entire  afternoon,  but  Gross  with  four  second  places 
was  high  point  man  of  the  meet.  Hoppen  was 
high  point  man  for  the  Tigers  with  eleven  points, 
being  closely  seconded  by  Captain  Young,  Goodman 
and  Cravens  with  ten  points  apiece.  The  time  in 
most  of  the  events  was  very  slow,  due  to  the  rains 
throughout  the  week.  This  meet,  however,  gave 
letters  to  five  Tigers  who  had  worked  diligently 
all  through  the  season — Hoppen,  Ward,  Robinson, 
Eby   and   Bean. 

This  meet  closed  the  track  season  and  the  boys 
are  looking  forward  to  a  more  successful  one  next 
year.  Letters  were  awarded  to  the  following  men 
at  the  close  of  the  season:  Captain  Young,  Captain- 
elect  Barron,  Bean,  Eby,  Ward,  Hoppen,  Dawson, 
Goodman,  Cravens,  Robinson  and  Manager  Way. 


The  1930  Southern  Intercollegiate  Boxing  Meet  saw  a  Sewanee  team  take  part  in  the  contest 
for  the  first  time  in  years,  and  in  spite  of  that  handicap  the  Tigers  put  up  an  admirable  displav. 
Charlie  Walter,  bantamweight,  opened  for  Sewanee  against  a  superior  opponent  and  lost  the 
decision,  but  brought  down  the  house  in  cheers.  Fred  Hollis  survived  the  ordeal  till  the  first 
round  of  the  semi-finals  when  he  was  defeated  on  a  technical  knockout  Coach  Jackson  won  his 
first  two  fights  and  was  putting  up  a  good  struggle  against  Captain  Allen  of  North  Carolina 
State  when  he  suffered  the  same  fate  as  did  Hollis.  Page's  opponent  proved  to  be  a  left-hander, 
and  Carlyle  never  succeeded  in  adjusting  himself  to  the  situation.  Syler  drew  a  bye  which 
threw  him  into  the  second  round.  He  lost  out  in  the  third.  Big  Patton  went  up  against  the 
well-known  Proctor  of  Florida,  but  lost  by  decision. 

Because  of  the  success  of  this  team  it  is  rumored  that  the  boxing  equipment  of  the  school 
is  to  be  enlarged  next  year,  and  it  is  likely  that  this  sport  will  be  added  to  those  in  which  the 
fraternities  participate.  This  team  certainly  had  fight,  and  there  is  no  reason  why  Sewanee 
should  not  send  out  others  like  it  in  the  future. 


Captain  Edwards  took  his  team  to  Athens  for  the  first  meet  of  the  year.  The  Tigers  were 
outclassed  by  the  boys  from  the  University  of  Georgia  and  lost  by  the  score  of  fourteen  and  one- 
half  to  three  and  one-half  points.  Butler  scored  the  only  points  for  the  Tigers.  On  the  next  after- 
noon in  the  match  with  Georgia  Tech  the  Tigers  came  near  to  tieing  the  score  with  the  final 
count  of  nine  and  one-half  points  for  Georgia  to  our  eight  and  one-half.  The  opponents  of 
Edwards  and  Butler  ended  the  match  two  up  and  one  up,  respectively.  Rice  and  Williams 
took  a  total  of  eight  points  from  their  opponents.  The  Purple  golfers  displayed  good  form 
throughout,  but   lost  their  deciding  point  on   the   greens. 

The  second  trip  of  the  year  took  the  Tigers  to  Nashville,  where  they  lost  to  Vandy,  eleven  to 
seven.  Butler  and  Williams  did  the  majority  of  the  scoring,  but  were  unable  to  beat  the  advance 
of  the  Vandy  men.  From  Nashville  the  team  traveled  to  Memphis,  where  it  beat  Southwestern, 
fifteen  to  three.  The  medal  play  of  the  team  was  outstanding.  Edwards  and  Butler  turned  in  a 
seventy-one  apiece,  Williams  a  seventy-seven  and  Rice  a  seventy-eight.  This  was  the  second 
time  in  two  days  that  the  Tigers  had  turned  in  scores  under  the  eighty  mark. 

On  the  day  before  the  Southern  Conference  matches,  Sewanee  lost  to  the  University  of 
Alabama,  eleven  and  one-half  to  six  and  one-half.  The  match  served  as  a  good  practice  round, 
however,  for  the  Purple  showed  up  well  in  the  tournament  the  next  day.  The  scores  for  the 
qualifying  round  were:  Edwards,  one  hundred  and  sixty;  Butler,  one  hundred  and  sixty-two; 
Williams,  one  hundred  and  sixty-four,  and  Rice,  one  hundred  and  sixty-five,  which  put  them 
just  outside  of  the  first  flight.  Butler  defeated  Williams  and  Edwards  to  take  first  place  in  the 
second  flight,  these  two  following  second  and  third,  respectively.  To  cap  the  meet  and  the  season, 
Butler  was  elected  president  of  the  Southern  Intercollegiate  Golf  Association.  This  makes  the 
second  time  in  three  years  that  a  Sewanee  man  has  held  this  honor. 


Tenuis 


Much  of  the  activities  of  the  varsity  tennis  team  centered  around  the  spectacular  and  entirely 
sound  tennis  tactics  of  one  Teddy  Burwell,  a  sophomore  in  the  college  and  the  holder  of  some 
four  or  five  state  titles.  As  Burwell  played  so  played  the  team  and  when  Burwell  was  absent 
from  the  Mountain  the  remaining  netters   ran   into   extremely  difficult  sledding. 

Sewanee  tennis  teams  have  been  handicapped  constantly  because  not  one  of  them  has  pos- 
sessed the  power  to  command  the  elements,  and  the  rain  has  done  its  part  in  making  outdoor 
work  an  impossibility  this  season.  The  indoor  court,  which  is  housed  in  the  Ormond  Simkins 
Gym,  was  noble  in  its  efforts  to  supply  the  Purple  raqueteers  a  place  to  display  their  strokes, 
but  it  was  out  of  the  question  to  play  seven  or  eight  matches  on  one  court  in  one  day.  To  pass 
from  clay  to  wood  is  not  an  attractive  prospect  for  any  tennis  team,  but  the  opposite  procedure 
is  still  less  inviting.  Nevertheless,  the  Tigers  found  it  necessary  to  make  the  best  of  the  change 
whenever  the  enemy  was  encountered. 

Vanderbilt  won  the  first  meet  early  in  the  season  in  Nashville.  Donald  Cram,  fresh  from 
a  week's  play  in  New  Orleans  against  the  nation's  best,  took  Burwell's  measure  in  sets  which 
were  featured  by  flashing  drives  and  sparkling  volleys.  Teddy  was  unable  to  locate  his 
distacnes  and  dropped  many  valuable  points  through  over  and  under  estimation.  Paired  with 
Allen  he  won  partial  revenge  by  defeating  Cram  and  Thomas  in  the  first  doubles  match,  al- 
though the  losers  were  a  combination  which  advanced  to  the  final  round  of  the  Southern  Inter- 
collegiates  later  in  the  season. 

Shortly  after  the  Vanderbilt  match  Burwell  left  Sewanee  for  the  North-South  Tournament 
which  was  held  at  Pinehurst,  North  Carolina,  and  the  White  Sulphur  Springs  Invitation  Tourna- 
ment which  followed  in  West  Virginia.  At  Pinehurst  he  advanced  through  two  rounds  at  the 
expense  of  Robert  McMillan,  former  University  of  Wisconsin  star,  and  Herbert  Vail  of  Long 
Island.  Both  matches  were  won  in  straight  sets.  In  the  third  round  Burwell  met  Berkley  Bell, 
National  Intercollegiate  champion,  and,  after  leading  one  set  and  four-love  on  the  second,  faltered 
to  lose  the  match  in  three  thrilling  sets.  It  was  a  splendid  exhibition  on  tennis.  At  White  Sulphur 
history  was  repeated   and  Teddy  was  again  eliminated   in  the  third   round  by  Bell. 

With  Burwell  playing  at  Pinehurst,  Georgia  Tech  and  the  University  of  Kentucky  were 
encountered  on  the  Mountain.  Sewanee  barely  missed  a  tie  when  Hines  and  Raines  lost  the  last 
doubles  match  to  the  Tech  pair  in  three  trying  sets.  Yates  downed  his  man  in  a  fine  come-back 
and  Raines  defeated  his  in  straight  sets.  Golden  and  Williamson,  playing  one  and  two  for 
the  Tornado,   defeated  Hines  and  Allen  to  win  the  meet. 

The  Kentucky  'Cats  took  the  next  meet  by  a  five  and  two  score.  They  presented  a  well- 
rounded  outfit,  winning  three  singles  and  two  doubles  for  the  total.  Yates  scored  his  second 
victory  in  as  many  days  when  he  turned  back  Senff  of  the  opposition,  and  Hare  turned  in  a 
win  over  Brock  for  the  second  Purple  victory. 

Tennessee  was  handed  a  three  and  two  defeat  on  the  following  Monday.  Burwell  won  his 
match  and  dropped  but  one  game.  Yates  and  Raines  won  in  three  sets  which  went  into  extra 
games,  while  Hines  and  Allen  were  defeated  in  three  sets  each,  all  six  going  to  extra  games. 
So  long  did  the  singles  matches  last  that  darkness  put  an  end  to  the  doubles  play  when  Burwell 
and  Allen  had  a  lead  on  one  set  in  the  first  match. 

On  May  9th  Sewanee  missed  tieing  with  North  Carolina  when  the  final  doubles  match  went 
to  the  Carolinians  in  three  sets.  Burwell  won  from  Merritt,  losing  only  one  game.  Burwell 
and  Allen  took  the  measure  of  Hendlin  and  Linisk  in  straight  sets  in  doubles.  The  defeated 
were   semi-finalists   at  the  conference   meet  the  following  week. 


Southern  Conference  Tournament 

Teddy  Burwell  and  Bob  Hare  represented  the  Purple  at  the  conference  meet  in  New  Orleans 
on  May  14th.  The  latter  won  his  first  match  from  a  Mississippi  opponent,  but  lost  in  the 
second  round  Burwell  defeated  Polites  of  Florida  and  advanced  to  the  quarter-finals  by  trim- 
ming Merritt  of  North  Carolina  in  straight  sets.  His  quarter-finals  match  was  played  against 
Clifford  Sutter  of  Tulane,  the  defending  champion.  Burwell  was  defeated  by  Sutter  in  a 
hard-driving  match  which  was  the  feature  of  the  day.  The  victor  won  through  a  net  attack 
which  he  started  from  behind  a  protected  serve.  Once  he  was  at  the  net,  it  was  almost  an 
impossibility  to  pass  him.     Sutter  won  the  intercollegiate  title  by  defeating  Fuer  and  Cram. 


Interfraternity  Athletics 

Almost  as  full  of  interest  and  excitement  as  the  intercollegiate  contests  are  the  interfraternitv 
games.  Sewanee  has  the  distinction  of  being  the  originater  of  this  system  of  athletics  in  the 
South.  Cups  are  given  the  victors  in  baseball,  basketball,  swimming,  track  and  football;  and 
the  points  from  these  contests  and  the  minor  ones  such  as  golf  and  tennis  are  counted  in  towards 
a  major  cup  given  by  Dr.  Bennett  to  the  fraternity  most  successful  in  all  fields.  First,  second 
and  third  places  are  counted. 

Touchball  Ends  in  a  Tie 

Sigma  Nu  and  Phi  Delta  Theta  emerged  from  the  football  season  in  the  lead.  Even  after  a 
game  to  play  off  the  tie,  they  remained  tied;  and  a  second  game  has  not  been  played.  Alpha 
Tau  Omega  is  the  next  in  the  running,  securing  third  place. 

K.  A.'s  Cop  Basketball  Title 

Pete  Young's  great  height  enabled  the  Kappa  Alpha's  to  offer  first  rate  competition  in  the 
interfraternitv  league,  and  contributed  greatly  to  the  winning  of  the  title.  It  was  a  nip  and 
tuck  affair  all  through  the  season,  but  the  K.  A.'s  gradually  became  most  prominent.  Alpha  Tau 
Omega  was  a  close  second,  with  Phi   Gamma  Delta  and   Sigma  Nu  tieing  for  third. 


Bengals  Retain  Handball  Crown 

Joseph  Schuessler  and  Hedley  Williams  won  first  in  the  handball  league  for  the  Bengals, 
this  being  the  second  consecutive  year  that  lodge  has  held  that  honor.  They  went  through  the 
season  on  a  surge  of  victory  and  the  title  was  easily  theirs.  Sigma  Nu,  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon 
and  Phi  Delta  Theta  split  the  second  and  third  place  points  when  it  grew  too  late  to  play  off 
the  tie. 

Deltas  Splash  Way  to  Swimming  Title 

The  Delta  Tau  Deltas,  under  the  leadership  of  Jerry  Thompson,  won  the  first  swimming 
meet  in  the  history  of  Sewanee.  Sigma  Nu  came  second  with  Alpha  Tau  Omega  taking  third 
place.  Competition  was  keen  and  every  event  was  crowded  so  that  the  outlook  for  future  meets 
is  very  bright. 

A.  T.  O.'s  Annex  Track  Meet 

It  looked  like  anybody's  meet  throughout  the  day  of  the  preliminaries  and  for  a  while  in  the 
second  day.  When  it  came  to  the  relay,  however,  the  contest  had  narrowed  down  to  the  Phis 
and  the  A.  T.  O.'s.  The  A.  T.  O.'s  came  through  to  win  that  event  and  clinched  the  meet. 
Phi  Delta  Theta  was  a  close  second,  while  the  Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon  fraternity  came  in  for 
third  place. 

Baseball,  Tennis  and  Golf  Unfinished 

As  the  annual  goes  to  press,  the  above  sports  are  still  undecided.  It  looks,  however,  as  if 
the  Sigma  Nus  stand  a  good  chance  of  winning  the  baseball  title.  Tennis  and  golf  are  too

The  Pae^Hellentic  Council 


HE  Pan-Hellenic  Council  has  for  its  object  the  promo- 
tion of  better  interfraternity  relations  and  the  govern- 
ment of  fraternity  activities.  Its  membership  consists 
of  two  representatives  from  each  of  the  national  Greek- 
letter  societies.  The  council  issues  rules  governing  rushing  of  new 
men  and,  in  cases  of  violation  of  these  regulations,  acts  as  a  court 
to  try  the  offending  fraternity  or  individual.  The  council  also 
sponsors  entertainments  given  throughout  the  year  by  the  fra- 
ternities for  the  Senior  Cadets  of  the  Sewanee  Military  Academy 
and  in  other  ways  creates  a  general  interest  in  fraternity  activities 
on  the  Mountain. 

Much  favorable  comment  on  the  Sewanee  system  of  rushing 
has  been  heard  from  various  universities  in  the  South,  and  in  some 
cases  the  plans  adopted  by  Sewanee  Pan-Hellenic  in  1924  ha^- 
been  copied  by  neighboring  schools.  The  second  Sunday  after 
the  opening  of  the  school  year  is  usually  designated  by  Pan-Hel- 
lenic as  Pledge  Day.  At  this  time  men  who  have  received  invi- 
tations to  join  fraternities  go  to  the  house  of  their  choice  to  be 
welcomed  by  their  future  brothers. 

Officers  of  Pan-Hellenic  Council  for  the  year  1929-1930  were 
John  Ezzell,  president,  and  Charles  Barron,  secretary.

Under  the  able  guidance  of  Mr.  Abbott  Martin,  who  was  a  member  of  Sigma  Upsilon  at 
William  and  Mary  before  coming  to  Sewanee,  Sopherim  enjoyed  a  most  successful  year.  Poetry, 
essays  and  short  stories  were  presented  at  the  bi-monthly  meetings. 

A  new  national  constitution  provides  for  honorary  members,  and  Sopherim  had  the  pleasure 
of  initiating  General  J.  P.  Jervey  into  the  fraternity.  The  increased  relationship  between 
members  of  the  faculty  and  members  of  the  fraternity  proved  a  real  benefit. 

One  of  the  most  enjoyable  meetings  of  the  year  was  held  at  the  home  of  General  Jervey 
when  Sopherim  had  as  its  guests  the  members  of  Neograph  and  Mr.  Long  reviewed  "The  Testa- 
ment of  Beauty,"  by  Robert  Bridges.

come  within  the  scope  of  the  student.  The  local  chapter  maintains  a  fire  department,  as  one 
of  its  chief  interests  and  throughout  the  past  year  has  acted  as  host  to  all  visiting  athletic  teams 
which  have  been  on  the  Mountain. 

Only  gownsmen  are  eligible  for  election  to  membership,  and  those  men  elected  are  supposed 
to  have  rendered  some  valuable  service  to  the  school   in  order  to  merit  this  distinction.

O.  D.  K.  was  installed  at  Sewanee  in  the  late  spring  of  last  year.  Its  purposes  are  three- 
fold: First,  to  recognize  men  who  have  obtained  a  high  standard  of  efficiency  in  collegiate 
activities  and  to  inspire  others  to  strive  for  conspicuous  attainments  along  similar  lines;  second, 
to  bring  together  the  most  representative  men  in  all  phases  of  collegiate  life  and  thus  to  create 
an  organization  which  will  help  to  mold  the  sentiment  of  the  institution  on  questions  of  local 
and  intercollegiate  interest;  third,  to  bring  together  members  of  the  faculty  and  student  body  of 
the  institution  on  a  basis  of  mutual  interest  and  understanding.  O.  D.  K.  aims  to  actively  engage 
in  constructive  work  on  the  campus,  discussing  questions  as  a  group  but  attaining  its  aims 
through   its  members   as  individuals.

In  the  good  old  days  of  which  we  hear  so  often,  there  were  at  Sewanee  three  organizations 
and  three  only — Sigma  Epsilon  and  Pi  Omega,  rival  literary  societies,  and  the  Red  Ribbon  So- 
ciety, an  honorary  organization  for  men  of  recognized  achievements.  The  entire  student  body 
belonged  to  either  Sigma  Epsilon  or  Pi  Omega  and  both  were  flourishing — to  be  a  Red  was  a  most 
coveted  distinction.  With  this  in  view  men  labored  for  and  supported  student  activities  in  order 
to  show  their  ability  and  spirit. 

It  is  written  in  the  Book  of  Life,  "To  him  that  hath  shall  be  given."  Verily  today  is  the 
Scripture  fulfilled  in  our  ears.  As  is  always  the  case,  a  few  men  were  most  outstanding  in  their 
several  fields  of  endeavor.  They  banded  together  and  brought  another  honor  society  into  being. 
The  process  has  continued  until  today  we  have  approximately  sixteen  student  honor  societies. 
To  a  casual  onlooker  this  would  seem  to  indicate  that  Sewanee  is  inhabited  by  a  race  of  super- 
men— this  evidence  at  least  w.ould  have  to  be  rejected.  What  has  happened  is  this:  We 
have  so  many  honor  societies  that  none  of  them  mean  much.  In  the  days  of  old  the  workers 
complained  because  they  had  no  recognition;  now,  like  the  frogs  in  the  fable,  they  are  so  bur- 
dened by  what  they  formerly  desired  that  they  look  with  longing  into  the  past. 

Our  honor  organizations  and  student  body  have  increased  in  a  somewhat  similar  ratio  to  the 
cost  of  living  and  the  pay  of  the  wage-earner.  We  have  unlimited  organizations,  but  only  a 
limited  list  of  outstanding  men,  so  the  leaders  in  any  line,  no  matter  what,  are  promptly  taken 
into  all  of  them.  The  societies  need  more  members  though  ;  the  good  fellows  are  added  to  the 
ranks.  The  rosters  are  now  full  and  the  deserving,  hard-working  men  who  would  have  time  and 
interest  to  devote  to  the  organizations  are  left  out  in  the  cold.  The  results  of  this  process  are, 
no  doubt,  agreeable  and  polished  social  bodies,  but  they  could  hardly  be  called  honor  organiza- 
tions for  recognizing  merit  in  definite  fields.  The  world  we  live  in  is  not  idyllic  as  we  all 
acknowledge  with  regret,  but  there  is  a  hope  of  making  it  rnore  so- 

Let  us  leave  the  unrequited  but  deserving  men  vlhere  the  honor  organizations  have  left 
them.  What  is  the  result  of  their  popularity  upon  the  selected  few?  It  is  twofold.  They  belong 
to  so  many  societies  that  they  cannot  work  in  all.  As  a  consequence,  they  work  very  little  if 
any  to  the  obvious  detriment  of  both  parties  concerned.  We  could  condone  this,  however,  but 
thev  are  so  busy  chasing  the  devil  around  the  bush  that  they  neglect  their  original  line  of  en- 
deavor for  which  they  merited  this  elevation.  Student  activities  have  taken  a  decided  slump — 
just  look  around  for  yourself.  As  for  the  studies  for  which  they  came  to  college,  these  are 
given  about  as  much  time  as  we  have  given  them  space. 

The  Scripture  lesson  concludes:  "From  him  that  hath  not  shall  be  taken  away  even  that 
which  he  hath."  We  have  lost  interest  in  our  honor  organizations;  we  are  losing  interest  in  our 
activities — there  is  only  one  thing  left  to  lose.     Verbum  sat  sapienti.

HE  SEWANEE  REVIEW,  a  quarterly  edited  by 
Dr.  William  S.  Knickerbocker,  head  of  the  De- 
partment of  English,  is  the  oldest  publication  of 
its  kind  in  America.  The  Review  is  scholarly  in  at- 
tainment and  widely  cultural  in  scope.  Articles  by  many  of 
the  foremost  writers  in  the  country  appear  in  its  pages. 

"The  Sewanee  Purple,"  although  edited  entirely  by  stu- 
dents, is  a  weekly  publication  financed  by  the  Athletic  Board 
of  Control.  By  means  of  its  Open  Forum  the  entire  student 
body  is  afforded  an  opportunity  of  expressing  its  views  and 
ideas.  All  campus  news  and  other  news  of  interest  to  the 
alumni  and  students  appear  in  its  pages.  A  short  article 
each  week  by  some  outstanding  writer  on  college  problems 
is  a  feature  of  the  publication. 

The  Cap  and  Gown  is  the  yearbook  of  the  university, 
being  published  at  the  end  of  each  session.  It  is  under  the 
management  of  the  Order  of  Gownsmen,  which  elects  the 
editor  and  business  manager,  and  for  many  years  has  been 
outstanding  in  its  class. 

The  Mountain  Goat  is  a  humorous  magazine  appearing 
four  times  a  year.  It  is  entirely  under  student  management, 
the  editor  and  business  manager  being  elected  by  Sopherim. 
Although  only  five  years  old,  the  Goat  has  already  taken  its 
place  among  the  publications  of  the  Mountain.

Debating  represents  a  very  important  phase  of  forensic  activity  at  Sewanee.  This 
year  university  teams  met  representatives  of  such  schools  as  North  Carolina,  South 
Carolina,  Tulane   and   Vanderbilt. 

As  head  of  the  Public  Speaking  Department  of  the  university,  Major  W.  H. 
MacKellar  coaches  and  trains  all  of  the  debating  teams.  The  result  of  his  endeavors 
is  shown  in  the  success  of  the  teams.  This  year  debating  was  put  into  the  hands 
of  the  students  by  electing  a  Debate  Council  from  the  varsity  debaters  for  all 
executive  purposes.

The  Glee  Club  continued  its  policy  of  one  extended  trip  during  the  year,  and  leaving  the 
mountain  on  the  twelfth  of  February  appeared  successively  in  Chattanooga,  Cedartown,  Ga., 
Mobile,  New  Orleans,  Beaumont,  Houston,  San  Antonio,  Waco,  Little  Rock,  Memphis,  Green- 
ville, Miss.,  and  Jackson,  Tenn.  Additional  trips  to  nearby  Tennessee  and  Alabama  towns 
brought  the  total  distance  traveled  well  over  five  thousand  miles. 

The  personnel  of  the  club  was  exceptionally  good  this  year  and  the  audiences  were  invariably 
pleased.  Solos  by  John  Gowen,  a  humorous  skit,  and  numbers  by  the  Sewanee  Syncopators 
were   the   outstanding   features  of  the   performances.

While  mainly  complementary  to  the  Glee  Club,  the  Sewanee  Synco- 
pators  must  receive  a  good  share  of  praise  for  the  success  of  the  trips 
taken  by  that  organization.  Besides  having  a  part  in  each  performance, 
the  syncoptators  often  played  for  dancing  later,  and  were  enthusiastically 
received  in  both  instances. 

Their  Sewanee  activities  were  largely  limited  to  a  few  appearances 
at  the  union,  but  these  were  greatly  enjoyed  by  all  fellow  students.

Sigma  Epsilon,  together  with  Pi  Omega,  is  one  of  the  oldest  student  organiza- 
tions on  the  mountain.  Its  name  is  taken  from  the  initial  letters  in  the  name  of 
Bishop  Stephen  Elliott,  one  of  the  founders  of  the  university.  Membership  in  the 
society  is  non-elective.  Sigma  Epsilon  sponsors  debtates  and  discussions  among 
its  members  at  regular  bi-monthly  meetings.  It  has  also  arranged  addresses  given 
by  members  of  the  faculty  on  both  pertinent  and  cultural  topics.  Membership  in 
Sigma  Epsilon  or  Pi  Omega  is  required  of  those  taking  part  in  commencement 
declamations,   orations   or   debates.

A  series  of  informal  addresses  by  members  of  the  faculty  proved  a  boon  to  Pi 
Omega  in  the  winter  and  spring  terms  of  this  year.  Covering  a  wide  range  of 
subjects,  the  talks  attracted  many  members  and  their  friends  who  found  in  them 
much  valuable  information  as  well  as  enjoyment. 

The   annual    banquet,    held    late   in   the    spring,    served    as    a    fitting   climax   to    a 
successful  year. 

The  name  of  the  society,  Pi  Omega,  is  taken  from  the  initial  letters  in  the  names 
of  two  of  the  founders  of  the  university — Bishops  Polk  and  Otey.  The  society  is 
one  of  the  oldest  of  any  sort  at  Sewanee.

A  Word  of  Explanation 

All  is  well  known,  all  fraternities  issue  secret  numbers  of  their  magazines  which 
are  carefully  guarded  from  the  great  unwashed  public.  By  dint  of  much  perseverance 
the  Cap  and  Gown  detectives  were  enabled  to  procure  issues  of  the  magazines  pub- 
lished by  the  several  fraternities  on  the  Mountain,  and  from  these  issues  the  following 
extracts  have  been  gleaned : 


MASS  MEETING  HELD  IN 
UNION 

In  Attempt  to  Determine  If  Sewanee  Students  Study, 
and  If  So,  Methods  of  Correcting  the  Situation 

(TMs  is  a  Super-Special  CAP  AND  GOWN  All-Talking 
Feature) 

The  meeting  was  called  to  order  after  a  pre- 
liminary argument  between  Messrs.  Yates  and 
Hines  as  to  which  one  of  them  should  preside, 
Mr.  Yates  finally  winning  out  by  calling  "Heads" 
on  a  flipped  coin  that  came  heads.  The  fact  that 
the  coin  was  heads  on  both  sides,  having  been 
furnished  by  Mr.  Yates,  should  not  be  held 
against  that  gentleman  since  he  knows  more  than 
Mr.  Hines  any  way,  as  evidenced  by  the  neat 
way  in  which  he  tricked  him. 

"Fellows,"  began  Mr.  Yates  with  all  due  re- 
straint, but  in  a  voice  that  could  be  heard  in  the 
farthest  corner  of  the  Union,  "you  know  as  well 
as  I  do  that  there  has  been  open  studying  going 
on  at  Sewanee  not  just  occasionally,  but  all  the 
time,  and  in  every  dormitory.  Now  what  are 
you  going  to  do  about  that  ?  That's  what  I  want 
to  know.  The  Sewanee  gentleman  is  known  far 
and  wide  as  a  real  gentleman.  You  never  heard 
anyone  talk  about  the  Sewanee  scholar,  but  that's 
just  what's  going  to  happen  unless  things  are 
changed.  Now,  I  want  to  hear  what  some  of 
you  think  about  it.  Mr.  Hines,  did  you  have 
something  to  say?" 

Taking  the  floor,  Mr.  Hines  said:  "It's  just 
this  way — we  either  study  or  we  don't  study. 
Nor  can  the  Platonic  citation  at  this  point  avail, 
nor  the  fact  that  at  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  last  year  a  similar  situation  developed. 
It's  simply  that  we  study  or  that  we  don't  study. 
Can  anyone  differ  with  me  at  this  point?  I 
think  not." 

Mr.  Hines  sat  down  plainly  satisfied  that  a 
most  difficult  situation  had  again  been  met  and 
avoided.  At  this  point  Mr.  Thomas  Parker  takes 
the  floor.  Spake  Mr.  Parker,  "I  hardly  know 
whether  studying  has  been  indulged  in  to  as  great 
an  extent  as  claimed,  but  if  so,  certainly  some- 
thing ought  to  be  done  about  it." 


"Thank  you  for  your  help,  Mr.  Parker,"  said 
Mr.  Yates  and  then  turned  the  floor  over  to 
Major  Henry  M.  Gass. 

"Now  I  hear  all  this  talk  about  studying,  but 
frankly,  gentlemen,  I  don't  believe  there's  a  word 
of  truth  in  it." 

Undoubtedly  Mr.  Yates  had  erred  in  not 
sounding  out  the  major  beforehand,  and  he  was 
plainly  disturbed  at  this  discordant  note  in  the 
proceedings,  but  he  smiled  blandly.  Mr.  Wal- 
ter (Buster)  Boyd  is  recognized. 

"Men,  I  look  at  it  this  way,"  began  Mr.  Boyd 
in  a  stirring  tone,  "the  honor  of  the  school  is  at 
stake.  It's  a  question  of  'Is  Sewanee  Right? 
We've  got  to  all  get  together  on  this  thing  and 
put  this  thing  across.  We  can  do  it  if  we  want 
to.  You've  heard  what  these  other  boys  have  said, 
and  now  it's  up  to  you.  If  anyone  can't  agree 
with  us  he  ought  not  to  be  here — that's  the  way 
I  feel  about  it.  Let's  make  Sewanee  right!" 
Loud  cheers  greeted  the  ending  of  Mr.  Boyd's 
speech.  As  he  moved  back  to  his  seat  it  was  plain 
to  see  that  he  was  deeply  moved. 

His  voice  aroused  from  his  own  aroused  passion 
on  the  subject,  Mr.  Yates  called  on  Mr.  Abbott 
Martin  and  Mr.  Tudor  Long  for  their  opinions, 
but  neither  would  be  so  bold  as  to  speak  before 
the  other.  A  suggestion  that  they  should  both 
speak  at  once  was  vetoed  by  Mr.  Yates  with  the 
explanation  that  it  would  be  too  High  Church 
and  the  members  of  the  Student  Vestry  nodded 
their  heads  in  approval. 

Mr.  Yates  then  asked  Mr.  Eugene  Kayden  to 
come  forward  and  give  his  views,  but  after  a 
short  silence  it  was  evident  that  Mr.  Kayden  had 
not  been  able  to  attend,  and  Dr.  William  S. 
Knickerbocker,  Ph.D.,  was  called  upon. 

"Gentlemen,"  began  Dr.  Knickerbocker  with 
evident  mental  reservations,  "this  is  a  subject 
upon  which  I  feel  very  keenly,  for  if  one  takes 
the  humanistic  viewpoint  coupled  with  the  fact 
that  Sewanee  is  a  church  school,  it  is  reasonably 
certain  that  there  is  some  studying  here,  but  just 
what  we  can  do  about  it  is  another  matter.  One 
method  might  be  to  assign  so  much  work  that 
no  student  will  do  any  of  it.     Then  there's  the 


"So  you  want  to  start  something?" 

"Yes,  I  do." 

"Well,  step  into  the  garage  and  start  my  car." 


matter  of  sex  which  interests  me  a  great  deal. 
However,  we  won't  pursue  that  point,  although 
I  often  do." 

After  thanking  Dr.  Knickerbocker,  Mr.  Yates 
called  upon  Mr.  George  Herbert  Edwards,  presi- 
dent of  the  Order  of  Gownsmen,  who  spoke  as 
follows : 

"Er,  studying  ought  not  to  be  going  on,  er,  er, 
of  course,  er,  if  you  are  going  to  study,  you  are 
going  to  study,  but,  er,  it  looks  like  you  ought 
not  to — they  asked  me  to  say  this,  and  I'm  saying 
it,  and  I  believe  studying  is  harmful,  er,  that  is, 
it's  harmful." 

In  conclusion  Mr.  Yates  asked  that  all  those 
who  were  in  favor  of  keeping  the  old  tradition 
let  it  be  known  by  standing,  and  as  everybody 
got  up  and  started  for  the  door,  it  was  evidently 
unanimous. 


FROM  THE  PALM  OF  ALPHA 
TAU  OMEGA 

As  everybody  knows,  Tennessee  Omega  is  the 
oldest  fraternity  at  Sewanee,  and,  although  the 
joints  are  creaking  and  there  is  patching  at  sev- 
eral points,  still  we  manage  to  carry  on,  thanks 
to  our  reputation  and  the  nine  faculty  members. 
Houston,  Texas  (you  know  the  place  where  they 


had  the  Democratic  convention  last  time),  and 
the  Mississippi  Delta  are  where  we  get  most  of 
our  men,  both  places  being  rather  primitive.  But 
why  we  pick  on  those  places  nobody  knows,  since 
we  got  Harry  Lovelace  and  George  Hart  from 
the  Delta,  and  Joe  Scott  and  Buster  Boyd  from 
Houston.  Habits  are  hard  to  overcome  though, 
especially  bad  ones. 

We  don't  go  out  for  athletics  very  much,  ath- 
letes being  a  crude  lot  for  the  most  part,  although 
we  have  got  Big  Patton.  Tennessee  Omega  has 
always  attempted  to  confine  its  workouts  to  rum- 
ble seat  gymnastics,  and  has  usually  succeeded 
very  well,  but  whether  this  is  due  to  our  tech- 
nique or  just  our  perseverance  we  can't  say. 

I'hw.  ecclesiastical  appearance  of  our  house, 
both  inside  and  outside,  probably  explains  our 
success  in  rushing,  such  as  it  is,  coupled  with  the 
large  number  of  our  faculty  members,  since  most 
freshmen  come  to  college  with  the  idea  that  the 
professor  is  an  important  part  of  his  education. 

It  was  suggested  that  Jimmy  Bass  register  at 
Vanderbilt  and  take  some  work  there,  since  he 
spends  as  much  time  in  Nashville  as  at  Sewanee, 
but  he  declined,  since  it  would  then  be  necessary 
to  go  to  Chattanooga  to  cut  classes,  and  he 
doesn't  at  all  like  Chattanooga. 


FROM  PHI  GAMMA  DELTA 
OF  PHI  GAMMA  DELTA 

Although  Gamma  Sigma  Chapter  can  no 
longer  be  disguised  as  the  Texas  Club  we  still 
lay  claim  to  being  the  original  lads  from  the  great 
open  spaces,  for  Kansas  has  taken  the  place  of 
Texas  as  the  state  guilty  of  producing  Sewanee 
Fijis.  Offhand,  one  would  hardly  think  Kansas 
could  be  an  improvement  on  Texas  when  it  comes 
to  furnishing  fraternity  material — nor  is  it. 

We  have  lost  none  of  our  physical  prowess, 
and  Cannon  Hall  and  the  Inn  still  shake  on  those 
Saturdays  nights  (most  of  them)  when  Phi  Gam- 
ma Delta  is  right.  It  is  no  mean  accomplishment 
to  break  a  door  in  with  one  blow  of  a  fist,  but 
Al  Capone  Spencer  can  do  just  that. 

It  is  true  that  this  year  we  have  but  one  Bean, 
but  somehow  we  find  that  one  is  quite  enough. 
Bean,  as  well  as  being  a  prominent  figure  on 
all  athletic  courts,  gridirons,  tracks,  etc.,  is  quite 
a  scholar,  taking  a  major  in  Biology  I. 

Buzz  Ward  is  a  good  athlete  in  his  way,  being 
a  wizard  at  the  mile  and  two  mile  on  the  cinder 
track  and  practically  unbeatable  (except  perhaps 
by  Freshman  Smith)  at  long  and  short  distance 
food  throwing  at  Magnolia. 

Frank  Brunner  was  awarded  the  Gamma  Sig- 
ma trophy  for  winning  the  class  and  chapel  cut 
marathon.  The  dean  asked  Frank  not  to  come 
to  chapel,  since  the  morning  he  came  the  proctors 
became  confused  and  were  unable  to  take  any 
cuts  at  all  due  to  the  shock. 


We  have  a  well-rounded  chapter,  too,  boasting 
in  addition  to  the  above  men  a  scholar  in  Tommy 
Parker  and  a  senator  in  Phil  Walker  and  his 
Buick. 


FROM  THE  KAPPA  ALPHA 
JOURNAL 

Although  we  heard  two  students  on  the  quad- 
rangle the  other  day  arguing  as  to  whether  or 
not  there  was  actually  a  Kappa  Alpha  chapter 
at  Sewanee,  we  want  everyone  to  know  that 
Alpha  Alpha  is  still  alive,  if  not  kicking.  Being 
true  and  worthy  inheritors  of  the  heritage  of  the 
Old  South,  we  feel  it  our  duty  to  maintain  a  lan- 
guid and  sleepy  air,  although  there  really  isn't 
any  use  in  carrying  it  as  far  as  Bill  Cravens  does. 

The  yard  has  been  much  improved  lately  by 
Brother  Abbott  Martin  of  the  English  Depart- 
ment, although  some  members  have  protested 
that  they  have  to  keep  on  the  walk  instead  of 
cutting  across  the  lawn  (?).  But  the  flower 
beds  won't  last  long  any  way,  since  weeds  will 
grow  up  and  kill  the  plants. 

In  activities  Pete  Young  has  brought  glory  to 
the  chapter  by  winning  the  Country  Gentleman 
magazine  prize  for  being  the  nearest  approach 
to  a  typical  country  gentleman,  since  he  was  so 
overwhelmingly  and  unmistakably  country.  Pete 
hails  from  the  wilds  of  Mississippi,  but  makes 
no  attempt  to  conceal  the  fact. 

George  Herbert  (Ug)  Edwards  by  some  de- 
vious workings  of  the  gods  and  the  politicians  is 
president  of  the  Order  of  Gownsmen  and  is  a 
good  one  too  since  he  never  makes  the  order  meet. 

Dixon  Dossett  has  been  elected  Chapter  Fa- 
ther, a  fitting  tribute  to  his  years  and  especially 
to  his  long  association  with  Alpha  Alpha  chapter. 
Dixon  was  a  member  of  the  Freshman  Class  of 
'89,  and  tells  many  a  stirring  tale  of  the  early 
days  of  the  university. 

Next  year  Alpha  Alpha  is  going  to  turn  over 
a  new  leaf  and  really  get  out  and  do  something, 
although  we've  gotten  along  so  far  all  right,  or 
at  least  gotten  along. 


THE  PASSING  OF  SUE 

Beep — beep!  The  train  at  Cowan  has  dis- 
gorged its  feminine  freight  and  our  hero  fastens 
himself  to  the  three  or  four  fifty-pound  traveling 
bags  lady  visitors  to  the  Easter  dances  always 
bring.  They  hie  over  to  a  taxi  and  amid  much 
small  talk  and  many  "helloes"  clamber  aboard. 

"Well,  Sue,  how's  things  back  home?" 

"Gorgeous,  sonny.  Oh,  isn't  that  mountain 
so — o — o  imposing  looking!  I  just  know  I'm 
going  to  love  it." 

"And  has  Mrs.  Parker  still  got  that  ancient 
Buick?" 


"Yeah,  it's  positively  on  its  last  legs.  Sonny, 
you  don't  really  mean  I'm  to  stay  at  the  Inn?  It 
looks  so  English — and  all." 

"How're  they  coming  with  that  new  hotel  back 
in  dear  ole  Juanita,  S.  C.  ?" 

"Oh,  Sonny,  it's  just  marvelous.  Did  you  say 
one  boy  I've  a  date  with  is  captain  of  the  foot- 
ball team?" 

Auto  gears  unmesh  and  the  brakes  moan  to  a 
stop;  business  of  removing  Sue  and  the  luggage. 
Came  the  night. 

"I've  never  been  so  thrilled.  Is  that  tall  blond 
man  realy  Blue  Steele?  That  can't  be  he — why 
he's  just  divine  looking." 

"Let's  go  look  at  Saturn." 

"I'm  cold  way  up  here.  You  know  it  makes 
me  poetic  to  see  those  little  lights  in  the  heavens." 

"Gee,  I  wish  this  intermission'd  never  end. 
You'll  be  leaving  so  soon." 

Another  interval,  in  which  a  great  how-de-do 
of  getting  sleep  and  putting  on  a  new  ensemble 
transpires.  The  figures  again  appear,  this  time 
on  the  dining  hall  porch.  Sue  has  become  a  little 
demure  Rhapsody  in  Blue  and  Sonny  for  once  is 
the  great  big  gorgeous  man  from  the  South  with 
a  camel  in  his  mouth. 

"My  first  meal  at  Magnolia.  How  will  I 
ever  go  through  with  it?" 

"Don't  pay  any  attention  to  the  boos.  It's 
just  bovine  humor,  you  know." 

"Do  those  funny  looking  waiters  really  go  to 
college  too?  Oh,  see  that  one  over  there;  he 
looks  like  Bull  Montana." 

"Hush,  he'll  hear  you.    That's  Ducky  Hollis." 

That  night  there  is  a  wise  old  moon  riding 
high.  Stage  properties  (essential) :  a  roadster 
with  top  down,  red  lips,  lights  of  a  small  town 
twinkling  in  the  distance,  weather  a  little  too 
cool  to  sit  far  apart,  a  sense  of  loneliness  mingled 
with  that  of  youth  and  romance  hovering  over 
the  pair. 

"Sonny,  you  know  I'll  never  forget  you.  Your 
having  me  up — and  all." 

"Think  no  more  of  it,  Sue.  The  debt's  prac- 
tically wiped  out.  You've  taken  every  man's 
heart  here.    Why  they'd  die  for  you,  honey." 

"Oh-h-h!" 

"Ah-h-h!" 

"You  don't  mean  always,  Sonny?" 

"Yeah,  I  mean  forever,  and  then  some." 

Gray  day.  Taxi  picks  way  down  from  the 
Olympic  heights  to  a  dingy  N.,  C.  &  St.  L.  sta- 
tion. Girls  in  blue,  purple,  gray ;  in  sedans,  road- 
sters and  ecstacy.  Men  in  knickers  and  trench 
coats;  some  in  their  cups. 

"Oh,  Sonny,  mail  my  compact — it's  in  the 
clothes  closet.  Tell  Buddy  I  think  he's  sweet. 
Give  Sam  my  very  best.  When  are  you  going 
to  write?  What  must  I  tell  your  folks?  See 
you  commencement." 


Sonny,  feeling  a  hundred  years  old,  struggles 
to  his  dormitory  lair  and  bellows,  in  stentorian 
tones,  "Freshman,  Sup'  Store  n'  two  bottles  Mis- 
sion Dry — quick!" 

God  bless  'em.  We  love  'em  both.  Girls  and 
Mission  Dry.

FROM  THE  STAR  AND  LAMP 
OF  PI  KAPPA  PHI 

Alpha  Pi,  although  it  has  only  been  a  chapter 
of  Pi  Kappa  Phi  for  one  year,  is  still  going 
strong,  or  at  least  as  strong  as  it  ever  has.  Some- 
how we  feel  that  in  fifty  years  this  will  be  a 
good  chapter,  which  gives  us  something  to  look 
forward  to.  Lots  of  Sewanee  fraternities  have 
fine  pasts,  but  our  past  is  all  in  the  future  and 
we're  trying  to  catch  up  with  it.  Any  way,  we 
can't  backslide. 

We  lost  most  of  our  activities  last  year  when 
Byrom  Dickens  graduated,  but  before  he  left  he 
fixed  some  of  us  up,  but  outside  of  that  we  don't 
seem  to  be  very  active.  Brother  Tom  Byrne 
plays  the  drums  in  the  Glee  Culb,  he  being  the 
only  man  who  had  any  drums.  We  have  got 
several  men  on  the  Mountain  Goat  since  Brother 
Burger  is  editor.  Jack  Cross,  the  man  from  the 
big  city,  is  art  editor  of  the  Goat,  which  prob- 
ably explains  how  he  got  his  drawings  in,  and 
Dick  Taylor  is  exchange  editor,  whatever  that 
is,  because  the  staff  reads  the  exchanges  itself 
and  then  sends  them  to  its  girls. 

Brother  Taylor  has  shattered  all  Sewanee  rec- 
ords for  food  consumption  in  Magnolia  Hall, 
both  for  endurance  and  in  the  springs.  Once 
his  friends  at  the  table  and  the  waiters  helping, 
Brother  Taylor  was  given  fifteen  pieces  of  mince 
pie  as  a  joke,  but  he  turned  the  joke  on  them  by 
eating  all  the  pie  and  then,  perhaps  from  force 
of  habit,  asking  for  an  extra. 

Charlie  Eby  is  a  good  track  man  when  he 
trains,  but  he  seldom  finds  time  to  do  that. 
Probably  he  is  reluctant  to  shatter  the  world  rec- 
0  ords  for  the  distances  as  he  has  the  Sewanee  rec- 
ords. All  in  all,  Alpha  Pi  is  doing  about  as 
well  as  could  be  expected,  if  you  hadn't  expected 
anything. 

FROM  THE  SCROLL  OF  PHI 
DELTA  THETA 

Well,  at  last  Tennessee  Beta  has  moved  into 
its  new  house  which  has  taken  only  twenty-three 
years  to  build.  Some  little  inconvenience  was 
caused  by  the  fact  that  the  architect  who  drew 


the  original  plans  grew  old  and  died  before  the 
house  had  reached  more  than  the  first  story.  As 
a  result,  none  had  any  idea  what  the  house  was 
originally  supposed  to  look  like.  It  seemed,  how- 
ever, that  the  plans  included  a  tower,  so  the 
tower  was  built.  When  the  right  hand  wall  was 
finished  an  embarrassing  hole  was  created  be- 
tween that  wall  and  the  tower  on  the  left.  This 
was  later  solved  by  glassing  the  hole  in.  Find- 
ing that  some  stone  was  left  over,  we  added  three 
rooms  to  the  tower  which,  with  the  second  floor, 
make  the  house  have  a  floor  space  four  times  that 
of  the  Piggly  Wiggly  warehouse  in  Chatta- 
nooga. 

While  the  house  doesn't  look  at  all  like  any- 
thing you  ever  saw  before,  much  less  like  a  fra- 
ternity house,  don't  mind  that  but  any  of  you 
brothers  who  are  around  this  way  drop  in  to  see 
us.  Also,  we  are  hoping  that  some  visiting  broth- 
ers will  feel  moved  to  make  a  small  contribution 
to  the  house  debt,  which  has  been  reduced  to 
$134,675,390.73. 

In  activities  Tennessee  Beta  has  flopped  com- 
pletely this  year.  Time  was  when  we  had  real 
big  men  like  Duke  Kimbrough  and  Billy  School- 
field.  In  fact,  we  used  to  be  good,  but  some- 
how that's  all  changed  now.  Booger  Barron 
would  be  our  best  all  around  man  if  he  were  a 
little  better.  We  suppose  we  ought  to  mention 
big,  bad  Bob  Hare  from  Atlanta,  although  we 
hate  to,  and  then  there  are  lots  more  but  nobody 
any  better.  Maybe  we  should  mention  Snipe 
Adair,  who  is  good  at  drawing  Valentines  and 
Stud  Horse  Cowan,  the  well-known  gentleman 
from  the  South  with  the  large  Cheroot  in  his 
mouth.  But  that's  only  making  it  worse.  Any 
way,  we  have  got  a  new  house  now  and  all  you 
brothers  and  alums  drop  in  on  us. 


SEWANEE  CREDO 

That  ratting  develops  school  spirit. 

That  Sewanee  is  the  one  university  in  the  coun- 
try that  doesn't  hire  its  football  players. 

That  beer  made  in  Johnson  Hall  is  as  good  as 
any  pre-war  beer. 

That  Monteagle  whisky  is  the  worst  in  the  world. 

That  a  winning  football  team  is  a  school's  best 
source  of  publicity. 

That  all  Phi  Beta  Kappas  cherish  a  secret  desire 
to  be  captain  of  the  football  team. 

That  all  of  Dr.  Knickerbocker's  courses  are  reve- 
lations of  What  Every  Boy  Should  Know. 

That  the  only  reason  Economics  I  seems  so  hard 
is  that  it  is  the  only  practical  course  in  the 
school. 

That  fraternities  are  the  most  important  part 
of  college  life. 

That  although  it  is  forbidden  to  drink  in  a  fra- 
ternity house,  it  is  all  right  to  drink  in  the 
front  yard. 


That  Major  Mac  is  the  only  professor  in  the 
world  who  isn't  opposed  to  football. 

That  one's  grades  are  in  direct  proportion  to  the 
frequency  of  Sunday  night  calls  on  the  faculty. 

That  putting  corn  whisky  in  a  keg  for  three 
weeks  makes  it  fit  to  drink. 

That  Sewanee's  football  difficulties  are  solved 
with  the  signing  of  new  coaches. 

That  there  are  fewer  good-looking  girls  in  Nash- 
ville than  anywhere  else  in  the  world. 

That  it  is  inhuman  to  beat  a  dog,  but  commend- 
able to  beat  a  freshman. 

That  four  years  at  Sewanee  will  make  a  gentle- 
man of  anyone. 

FROM  THE  CADUCEUS  OF 
KAPPA  SIGMA 

Believe  it  or  not,  since  this  time  last  year 
Omega  has  become  99  44-100  pure,  or  at  least 
in  comparison  it  looks  that  way.  No  longer  can 
Omega  masquerade  as  the  Society  for  the  Repeal 
of  the  Eighteenth  Amendment.  It  is  our  proud 
claim  (although  some  lament)  that  it  is  doubt- 
ful if  a  truck  load  of  beer  could  be  found  in  the 
entire  Kappa  Sigma  house.  We  have  given  up 
the  old  practice  of  drinking  in  the  house  and 
have  adopted  the  more  popular  one  of  the  other 
fraternities — that  of  drinking  out  in  the  yard. 
Although  this  is  a  trifle  inconvenient,  it  protects 
the  varnish  on  the  floor. 

With  the  drying  up  of  the  chapter,  we  have 
also  inaugurated  a  more  gentle  system  of  recrea- 
tion in  the  house.  Chairs  are  practically  never 
thrown  at  one  another  by  the  brothers,  and  Runt 
Blair  has  by  wonderful  self-control  refrained 
from  hurling  brothers  or  guests  through  the  win- 
dows. The  thug  brothers,  J.  and  R.  Kellerman, 
have  also  quieted  down  somewhat  and  only  vent 
their  playfulness  on  the  crockery  at  Magnolia 
Hall. 

Instead  of  the  din  that  formerly  came  from 
the  house,  a  restive  calm  pervades  all,  and  the 
quiet  brothers  may  be  seen  pitching  horseshoes 
in  the  front  yard.  The  only  discordant  element 
is  the  loud  hullabaloo  constantly  surrounding 
Brother  Charlie  Walter,  due  to  his  inability  to 
either  talk  less  loudly,  or  what  would  be  better 
still,  not  at  all.  However,  things  are  greatly 
improved. 

All  of  this  improvement  is  due  to  the  wonder- 
ful influence  of  Brothers  Gregory,  Walker  and 
Bridewell.  But  now  we  ask  you,  which  is  worse: 
whisky,  or  Gregory,  Walker,  and  Bridewell? 
Pass  the  bottle. 

FROM  THE  RAINBOW  OF 
DELTA  TAU  DELTA 

Delta  Tau  Delta  at  Sewanee  still  carries  on, 
and  does  about  as  well  as  most  Delta  chapters 
we  reckon.     We  have  three  Craigs  and  lots  of 


boys  from  Selma,  as  well  as  three  and  one-third 
automobiles  for  each  member.  We  still  try  to 
maintain  the  old  Delta  tradition  of  exclusiveness, 
but  lacking  anything  to  really  base  it  on  nowa- 
days, it's  sort  of  hard. 

Since  Christmas  the  chapter  has  chartered  a 
special  railroad  car  and,  calling  itself  the  Se- 
wanee  Glee  Club,  has  enjoyed  a  pleasant  tour 
of  the  country.  Various  performances  were  given 
which  people  paid  to  see  and  hear  so  that  no 
expense  was  placed  upon  the  members.  The  gen- 
eral sentiment  of  the  brothers  proved  to  be  that 
prohibition  was  a  failure. 

While  the  chapter  was  away  with  the  Glee 
Club,  Jimmy  Mann  was  left  at  home  to  keep  the 
fire  going  in  the  furnace. 

Gasoline  Gus  Rounsaville  was  elected  chap- 
ter historian,  but  on  telling  his  story  about  the 
frogs  in  Texas  that  swallowed  chickens,  he  was 
recalled  from  that  office  since  it  was  seen  that 
his  was  not  the  historical  mind.  The  chapter 
is  thinking  of  running  him  for  United  States 
Senator  instead. 

Ed  Nash  is  supposed  to  have  had  a  very  fa- 
mous brother  at  Sewanee,  which  is  likely,  since 
every  family  has  one  member  who  amounts  to 
something.  Ed  is  a  firm  believer  in  hazing  as  a 
means  of  producing  Sewanee  gentlemen — witness 
Ed  himself. 

The  best  argument  for  ratting  that  has  ap- 
peared at  Sewanee  in  some  time  is  George  Dun- 
lap.  Some  say  George  is  the  only  reason  for 
ratting  they  can  think  of.  George  is  quite  a  per- 
sonage down  Mobile  way,  where  the  girls  give 
him  quite  a  bit  of  trouble,  or  at  least  George 
says  so. 


A  BENGAL  PENS  A  LETTER 
TO  HIS  GIRL 

Dearest  Honey: 

I  don't  believe  I  have  ever  told  you  about  all 
the  fellows  here  in  the  chapter.  They  are  a 
fine  bunch,  although  some  of  them  seem  sort  of 
funny  to  me.  Nearly  all  of  them  are  terribly 
smart,  and  I  know  I  will  be  too  before  long.  Ed 
Watson  is  a  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  but  I  asked  him 
if  he  knew  a  fellow  out  in  Texas  where  he 
comes  from  and  he  didn't,  so  he  isn't  so  smart 
after  all.  Matthews  is  assistant  in  biology  and 
is  getting  so  he  can  call  the  roll  pretty  good,  but 
he  doesn't  seem  to  know  much  biology. 

Then  there  are  Biehl,  Richardson  and  Han- 
num  who  study  a  lot,  but  don't  seem  to  get  any- 
where. But  if  they  have  a  good  time  studying 
I  guess  it  is  all  right. 

Then  there  is  a  fellow  called  Campbell  Gray, 
and  he  is  a  son  of  a  bishop.     Campbell  told  me 


"/  just  revel  in  my  work." 
"What  do  you  do?" 
"1  run  a  night  club." 


a  joke  that  was  funny  all  right,  but  I  didn't 
laugh  at  it  'cause  it  didn't  sound  like  the  kind 
of  a  joke  a  bishop's  son  ought  to  tell.  If  we 
ever  get  married  like  you  say  we  are  I'll  tell  it 
to  you. 

My  favorite  brother  is  Julius  French.  He  has 
got  a  great  big  chest  and  rolls  when  he  walks 
just  like  a  sailor.  He  is  a  fine  football  player 
and  I  cut  his  picture  out  of  the  paper  to  send  to 
you,  but  don't  you  get  interested  'cause  he's  got  a 
girl  down  at  Tulane  who  writes  him  a  letter 
every  day  and  besides  you  remember  what  you 
told  me  that  night  just  before  I  came  here  and 
so  keep  on  loving. 

Your  faithful  Bengal. 


FROM  THE  DELTA  OF  SIGMA 

NU 

Rising  to  great  heights  in  the  Sewanee  frater- 
nity world  by  pledging  the  1928  freshman  foot- 
ball team,  Beta  Omicron  at  Sewanee  has  suffered 
a  relapse,  since  a  goodly  part  of  that  team  quit 
when  the  coach  quit.  However,  we  still  h*fe 
one  of  the  largest  chapters  at  Sewanee  since  there 
are  payments  on  the  house  that  have  to  be  met. 

John  E.  (Doc)  Hines  is  our  best  all  around 
man,  being  both  athlete  and  Phi  Beta  Kappa. 
There  was  a  rumor  once  that  there  was  an  or- 
ganization Doc  had  failed  to  join,  but  it  was  later 
proved  unfounded.  Nor  does  it  matter  what 
kind  of  organization  it  is,  Doc  will  join.  St. 
Elmo  Massengale  follows  closely  after  Doc  and 
if  he  isn't  yet  in  as  many  organizations  as  Doc, 
he  will  be  next  year.  Outside  of  these  two  men, 
no  Sigma  Nu  is  in  anything. 

We  still  have  plenty  of  athletes,  Morton  play- 
ing football,  basketball  and  missing  his  share  of 
notes  in  the  choir.  Carper  also  is  in  the  choir 
and  misses  more  notes  than  Morton  because  he 
sings  more  of  them.     Goodman  and  Jeffries  are 


pretty  good  at  football  and  the  training  table, 
but  have  some  trouble  in  distinguishing  a  frog's 
front  leg  from  his  rear  in  biology  lab.  Dawson 
is  also  an  excellent  athlete,  performing  equally 
well  in  football,  track  and  on  the  davenport. 

If  we  aren't  much  on  the  campus  this  year,  we 
will  be  even  worse  next  year  when  we  lose  Hines, 
Davidson,  Hodges,  etc.  We'll  be  ioo  per  cent 
athletic  by  1931  except  Massengale,  Carper  and 
Fortune.  Fortune  thought  Sigma  Nu  was  a 
scholarship  fraternity,  that's  why  he  joined,  which 
was  either  a  good  joke  on  Frank  or  on  Sigma 
Nu — it's  hard  to  say  which. 

Some  fraternities  have  a  glorious  past,  and 
some  have  a  wonderful  future,  but  what  can  you 
do  when  you  have  neither?    That's  us. 


FROM  THE  RECORD  OF  SIG- 
MA ALPHA  EPSILON 

Unfortunately  Tennessee  Omega  has  never 
been  able  to  live  up  to  the  S.  A.  E.  custom  of 
having  at  least  66  2-3  per  cent  of  the  student 
body  members  of  S.  A.  E.  We  realize  that  we 
have  fallen  down,  but  have  partially  made  up 
for  it  by  thinking  that  we  are  66  2-3  per  cent 
of  the  Sewanee  student  body. 

Lots  of  visiting  brothers  say  they  can  never 
distinguish  Bill  Turner  from  John  Turner  so  we 
will  take  this  time  to  explain  that  John  is  the 
one  who  is  always  eating  candy. 

In  activities  Tennessee  Omega  is  right  there, 
or  at  least  we  think  so.  The  captain  of  the  1930 
football  team  is  an  S.  A.  E.  He  is  Bob  Stim- 
son,  and  has  lots  of  school  spirit,  as  manifested  in 
the  way  he  beats  freshmen  and  shoves  through 
the  door  at  Magnolia.  The  two  sonny  boys, 
Butler  and  Poellnitz,  are  always  up  to  some  sort 
of  trick.  Poellnitz  has  just  signed  a  contract  to 
make  a  Victor  record  of  "Love  Made  a  Gypsy 
Out  of  Me,"  the  Victor  agent  having  heard  him 
singing  it  while  he  was  shaving.  Since  Butler 
never  shaves  he  couldn't  get  in  on  this. 

"We  ought  to  say  something  about  our  most 
prominent  campus  figure,  H.  A.  (Tony)  Gris- 
wold,  but  it  has  all  been  said  so  many  times  be- 
fore that  we  sort  of  hate  to  repeat  it.  We  will 
say  that  since  last  year  his  suppressed  desire  of 
having  a  Vitaphone  in  the  Union  has  been  real- 
ized. We  would  like  to  state  that  seeing  and 
hearing  is  all  we  will  put  up  with,  however. 
If  they  start  any  feeling  we  will  rebel  except  in 
the  case  of  Laurel  and  Hardy.  Just  give  us  a 
chance  at  them. 


Cap  and  Gown  Beauty  and 
Popularity  Contest 

At  great  expense  and  trouble,  but  feeling  that 
nothing  was  too  good  for  its  readers,  the  1930 
Cap  and  Gown  has  conducted  a  Sewanee 
Beauty  and  Popularity  Contest.  The  judges  in 
this  contest  were  the  well-known  authorities, 
Messrs.  Bob  Hare  and  Waldo  Wilson.  None 
of  the  results  were  decisive,  all  of  the  balloting 
ending  in  a  tie  as  follows:

What  Sewanee  Stands  for 

THE  EDUCATION  OF  THE  WHOLE  MAN— 

His  BODY,  in  a  physical  environment  and  training  almost 
ideal. 

His  MIND,  through  courses  in  a  scientifically  correct  cur- 
riculum, and  through  contact  with  a  faculty  strong  in  schol- 
arship and  personality. 

His  CHARACTER,  through  the  constant  influence  of  Chris- 
tianity as  expounded  and  exemplified  in  the  life  of  the  Uni- 
versity Community. 

THE  MAKING  OF  A  CITIZEN— 

In  theory,  through  the  influence  of  that  ideal  of  patriotism 
which  we  call  the  Sewanee  Spirit. 

In  practice,  through  the  dynamic  living  as  a  citizen  in  a  com- 
munity of  which  the  student  body  constitutes  the  citizenship.
