T5he Inauguration
One of the most important events in the history of Eastern is to be recorded in
this Milestone: the formal inauguration of Doctor Herman Lee Donovan as Presi-
dent of our institution, on the 25th of October, 1929.
Following the death of our beloved President Coates, the Board of Regents met
in Louisville, March 27, for the purpose of selecting his successor. Doctor Dono-
van, Professor of Education at the George Peabody College, Nashville, Tennessee,
was their unanimous choice. An editorial in the Courier- Journal of the following
day, entitled A Kentuckian Reclaimed, pointed out in a singularly felicitous way
the rare good fortune of Eastern — and of Kentucky — in having been able to secure
the services of a man, who by birth, training, and experience, is pre-eminently fitted
to guide the policies of the Eastern Kentucky State Teachers College at this time.
The editorial seemed to strike a responsive chord throughout the state; on all
sides its sentiments were re-echoed. Naturally nowhere was the selection of the
Regents more warmly applauded, or the value ot the man chosen more readily
recognized than at Eastern. Faculty, students, Alumni, and friends of the institu-
tion united in their approval ot the choice. Doctor Donovan was not coming to
Eastern, or to Eastern Kentucky, for the first time; he was, as the Courier pointed
out, only returning. A native of this section of the state, a graduate of the Uni-
versity of Kentucky, he had served his state in various educational capacities, hav-
ing gone to Peabody from the position of Dean of Eastern.
A committee was appointed by the Board of Regents to take care of the formal
induction of the President-elect. The members ot this committee were Dean
Homer E. Cooper, Superintendent W. C. Bell, Regents Judge J. A. Sullivan and
Honorable C. F. Weaver, and Mr. Paid Burnam. They were aided by various
committees of faculty and students. The enthusiasm and interest which every one
connected with these ceremonies exhibited served to emphasize the auspicious be-
ginnings of President Donovan's administration. The official ceremonies brought
to Eastern's campus a number of Kentucky's most prominent educators and citizens,
together with others of high rank in the educational circles of the South and the
states to the north of us.
Representatives were here from the following institutions: Transylvania Col-
lege, Centre College, Indiana University, Wake Forest College, University of
Louisville, Marshall College, Berea College, University of Kentucky, Kentucky
Wesleyan College, Indiana State Normal School, Alabama State Normal School,
Peabody College, Johns Hopkins University, Union College, Asbury College, Ala-
bama College, Western Kentucky State Teachers College, East Tennessee State
Teachers College, Murray State Teachers College, and Louisville Normal School.
In addition to the official representatives there were many other visitors present in
an unofficial capacity.

The occasion served not only as the formal installation of President Donovan,
but it likewise afforded a legitimate, dignified, and impressive means of displaying to
the friends of Eastern and to the public at large the growth of an institution just
now arrived at its majority. Visitors who had not been on the Campus for main
years and others arriving tor the first time were outspoken in the surprise they felt
at the size of the plant, the number and appearance of the buildings, the beauty of
the grounds, and the size of the student body. Eastern was on parade, and no
mean showing she made. Everywhere in every detail of the inauguration plans and
ceremonies one had the conviction that a propitious era was at hand, made possible
by the life and sacrifices of those who had gone before, that the institution over
which President Donovan was called upon to guide had arrived at a place of dignity
and worth, that it had justly earned the affection and respect of its constituency and
its sister institutions, and that it was no longer in the experimental stage.
The occasion was one of much value to the student body. They had an oppor-
tunity of seeing the most brilliant and colorful procession in full academic regalia
that Eastern's campus has ever witnessed. They saw the colors of the oldest uni-
versities of Europe and America float to the October breeze, as the line of march
proceeded from the Administration building to the Gymnasium between two lines
of flanking students who stood at attention to form a guard of honor, with Eastern's
banner and the American flag being borne by students at the head of the procession.
Every department of the institution aided: students assisted in furnishing the music,
in preparing and serving the two elegantly appointed banquets, that of the Alumni
Association on the evening preceding the inauguration, and the formal luncheon to
one hundred fifty guests immediately following the Thursday morning ceremonies,
and in assisting President and Mrs. Donovan in the reception which they gave later
in the day; they acted as ushers, pages and hosts.
It is impossible to give here a detailed account of the formal ceremonies. W. C.
Bell, Superintendent of Public Instruction in Kentucky presided and administered
the oath of office to the President-elect. Addresses were delivered by President
Bruce R. Payne of Peabody College on The Trend of Higher Education and by
President Frank L. McVey of the University of Kentucky on Administrative Rela-
tions in Colleges.
President Donovan's inaugural address, The Duality of the Teachers College
will long be remembered by those who heard it. After delivering a memorial
sketch of those men who had preceded him in the office and setting forth in some
detail the particular contribution of each, he outlined the history of Normal Schools
and Teachers Colleges. He then proceeded to what he termed the two-fold ob-
jective of the Teachers College of today: that it must lead the student to master
subject matter and help him to acquire skill in teaching. His address was most
stimulating, amounting as it did to a fronunciamento of his hopes, ideals, and ambi-
tions for Eastern of the future.

Seniors! Yes, at last this long looked for goal has been reached. And now,
like all the rest, our parting time has come. We pause here to make the last ac-
count of our class and to add its eulogy to the history of Eastern before passing on
to become a part ot the world ot affairs.
Four years! Four years of sorrow and joy, of work and play, of hope and dis-
appointment, of yearning and attainment. In reaching this hour to which we have
looked forward with such joy and happiness the tour years seemed long, but now that
this goal is attained they seem all too short.
Four years ago we began our career at Eastern. We were the greenest of
Freshies with little love for our Alma Mater and little college spirit. How time
changes things. Since then we have lived and that with a vengeance. We have
become quite a polished class, with an undying love for our Alma Mater, and we
have helped develop a real school spirit at Eastern, we hope. As we look back we
see where we succeeded at times while we too see failures. Yet we feel we have
contributed something to Eastern and that she will be somewhat better for our having
been here.
In our Freshman year under the guidance of Miss Schnieb we contributed over
$100 to the Student Loan Fund. We bought an Eastern banner that is still being
used here. We also organized the first class orchestra at Eastern during the year.
Miss McKinney directed us through our Sophomore year and by that time we were
beginning to appreciate Eastern. As Juniors, with the aid of our faculty adviser,
Dean Cooper, we were active in the customary Junior duties. Some of the things
we have done this year are: standardized the Eastern ring in order that an Eastern
ring can he recognized anywhere, begun the custom of seniors wearing derbies and
tarns and carrying canes and swagger sticks, reserved senior seats in assembly, and used
a full page in the annual for seniors.
We have enjoyed this work and now that the time for parting has come we
hesitate and feel that it is all too soon. ^ et this is just commencement, the begin-
ning of our fight in the world; for
"Heaven is not reached by a single bound
We build the ladder by which we rise
From the lowly earth to the lofty sky
And mount to the summit round by round."

Alex, as he is familiarly known on the campus, has made many friends while he
has been with us. He has always been ready to lend his hand wherever needed and has
won distinction in many phases of college life. He has excelled especially in the realm
of science; he not only did excellent class work, but made quite a success as laboratory
assistant in both the chemistry and biology departments. Besides his scientific ability,
he has ability as a singer, being a member of both the choral club and the men's
quartette.

a steady worker, earnest, energetic, enthusiastic, enjoying repartee and retort, he dislikes
formality and hates sham. He is eager to know and anxious to achieve.

Mrs. Atkinson is perhaps the most quiet and is one of the most genteel members of
the class of '29. She is a conscientious student and is very fond of books. She is never
happier than when thumbing the pages of Horace. Whether she teaches, or whether she
remains at home next year, we are sure that she will brighten her corner of the world,
and our best wishes go with her.

Though somewhat reserved, when you learn to know her as we did, she reveals manv

believes knowledge is the greatest sun in the firmament, and when it comes to history, she
knows more than her dates. Where duty calls she is always found.

The fairest flowers bloom amid quiet surroundings, and sometimes we find the most
pleasing qualities of human nature flourishing beneath a calm and quiet exterior. Such
is Molly. She is one of those friends of whom we are always sure. She has delivered
the goods while in Eastern, as she may be expected to do when she takes up teaching.
"Happy, thoughtful, kind, and true,
There is no favor she taill not do."

Where will you find another like her? Not that her distinctiveness is to her dis-
credit ; decidedly to the contrary. Few could achieve all that she has accomplished. Her
social disposition and her ability to maintain a jovial smile in the face of most trying
circumstances are responsible for her success. These same characteristics have made
Hasel synonomous with good humor. Here we have a jolly disposition, a comrade, and
a friend to all.

"Bob" possesses that "stick-to-it-ive-ness" which always spells success — success in his
class work, athletics, and in winning the friendships of his classmates. Through his
perseverance he has taught and kept up his college work and will graduate with his class
in the summer. He has not allowed his profession to interfere with his frequent return
to the campus this year and has thus kept in touch with student activities.

"Swept" comes to us from the marshes of Mississippi and is proud of it, but he has
learned to love Kentucky and Eastern as dearly as his native state in the four years he
has been with us. He has a sunny disposition, a level head, and a winning personality.
He is quiet and unassuming, but his determination of purpose, his sincerity and dependa-
bility make him one of the outstanding members of the class.
"They might not need me; hut they might.

Henry is a hard worker, an efficient organizer, a clear thinker, a forceful speaker and
a loyal Easterner. Henry finished the requirements for his degree at the end of the first
semester and was asked to teach in the Normal School, where he is making great success.
However, peadagogy is only Henry's avocation. His vocation is to be the husband of
Mrs. Henry Coates. The only picture we can conjure up for Henry is one of success.

This is Beck.
For four years he has been most outstanding figure in Eastern's athletics. His
grit
and pep have made way through the line on the football field when it seemed impossible.
His fearless, level-headed playing on the basketball court has been the despair of many
an opponent. During the seasons when Beck was captain of the teams, their pep was due
largely to his ability to get his men lined up and in action quickly.

Evelyn has, during her college career, maintained a certain dignity and poise. Her
dignity is a very charming characteristic and by means of this and an unusual amount of

Though Mrs. Farris has only been with us a year, we cannot help feeling that Eastern

quiet members of the class, but she has plenty of pep just the same, and is not afraid
to speak her convictions. Her friendliness and courtesy, which are genuine reflections
of inner kindness, make her liked and respected by all.

No task, whether large or small, intimidates him. and he enters upon each with cheer-

this fine character possessed by our friend, that we feel will push him to the top of any

Nobility indeed! A noble character, and a noble friend. With her dynamic force
of making friends, "Suze" has made a host of them during her college journey. She ac-
quired a concrete friendship among her fellow students by her attractive personality as
a real Easterner. The faculty admires her because of her diligence as a student. Susan
never leaves a task undone; she is thorough in all her undertakings; she never voices an
opinion without a logical or plausible reason.

Edna has only been with us for a year, having had three years of her college work
in Berea. During the year she has been with us, she has proved her real worth as a
student. She is a valuable member of the senior class, for she is always there ready to
do her part in all the class activities. It may be truly said of her that she has set for
herself a worthy goal, and has summoned all the powers of her womanhood into the
struggle for the attainment of that goal.

If yon have seen a long, lean, lanky "lemon" hurrying across the campus, looking as if
the business affairs of the whole world rested on him, you have seen David. He is the
original business man of the campus. This vear he was made business manager of both
the "Progress" and the "Milestone" and he has handled their affairs like a veteran.
David's is a nature that cares little for any particular thing. He is of the independent
type, taking things as they come and always on the lookout for opportunities. He would
make a wonderful dealer in futures.

Edna came to us four short years ago with the determination of securing, first, friends,
and then as a sort of by-product some degree that Eastern would permit her to attach
to her name, fn these years she has accomplished both her aims. Although we are ex-
pecting great things from one of such ability, ambition and friendliness, we feel that
it is almost impossible for us to be disappointed.

"Codger." as he is known on the campus is one of the most unassuming anrl best
known students of our class. He is never self-assertive, and yet his presence is felt
wherever he is found. Roger's scientific leanings and learnings led him to specialize
in this field, and we should not be at all surprised to know that in the future he has
taken his place in the ranks of the great in the scientific field.

JOHN E. PENNINGTON, A. B.
"Penny"
ASHLAND, KENTUCKY.
Major: English.
Canterbury Club.
We sometimes wonder what his deep interests and strong dislikes are. He wears
well the mask of appearance, but even if he tried he could not conceal something innately
appealing in his personality. He is a conscientious and persevering student; and is
master of many things.
"True icorth is in being, not seeming,
In doing, each day that goes by.

Y. VV. C. A., Sigma Lambda.
Betty came to us in the fall of 1928 as a senior, and though she has been here only a
year she has extended her usefulness and support to all forms of student activity, and
has formed many lasting friendships. Quiet, but wonderfully capable, is the verdict of
those who know her best. She is always ready to help.

CHARLES P. RAY, A. B.
"Charlie"
MALCOM, KENTUCKY.
Major: English.
Horace Mann Literary Society, Little Theatre Club, Canterbury Club.
Courteous in manner, modest in demeanor, and a true gentleman to all — that's Char-
les. He can be gay as well as serious as is manifested by his popularity on the campus.
An excellent student but by no means a book-worm, a lover of literature and beautiful
women. In sending him out into the world in January when he finished his college
career, Eastern feels that she has sent one of her best, and wishes him all success.
"To say little and to perform much
Shows the character of a great mind."

R. R. RICHARDS, A. B.
"Dick"
RUSSELL SPRINGS, KENTUCKY.
Major: Commerce.
President, Senior Class, Sigma Tau Pi, Progress Staff, Milestone Staff, Football, Basket-
ball, Baseball, Tennis Team, Student Instructor.
Dick is a student, an athlete and every inch a man — the embodiment of good sports-
manship in every sense of the word. What he lacks in stature, he makes up in broad-
ness of mind, largeness of heart, depth of character and length of knowledge. As presi-
dent of our class, he has guided us safely through the stress of weighty decisions that
were ours to make. Our best wishes go with you, Dick, and we know that all your
life you will be square with everyone you meet.
"He was a man, lake him all in all.
I shall not see his like again."

EVELYN ROSS, B. S.
"Betsy"
RICHMOND, KENTUCKY.
Major: Mathematics.
Sigma Lambda.
Her ever sparkling black eyes portray her energy and ambition. She has a magnetic
personality which draws not only friends but also good luck. She is one who will never
bow her head to adverstiy, but will push on, unconquerable, to her zenith. Her major
is mathematics and we expect her to startle the world in days to come, for she has the
name of a hard worker both in the class room and out.
".-Is busy as can be and studious too,
A friend highly valued by all whom she knew."

ROBERT L. SMITH, A. B.
"Bob"

Major: Social Science.
President Horace Mann Literary Society, Canterbury Club, Upper Cumberland Club,
Editor Milestone, Neon Krypton Literary Society.
If at any time you need help on anything, either curricular or extra-curricula, all that
is necessary is to call on "Bob." It's the art of being able to do anything in a credit-
able way. There are few who are gifted with this ability and still fewer who are will-
ing to exercise it. He is as useful on the campus and in the life of his classmates as one
poor mortal of clay could well be. His sturdy traits of character will carry him far
along the highway of success.
"We are, iv/ien ire n-ill it, masters of our oirn fate."

LEE ROY STATON, A. B.

SNOW, KENTUCKY.
Major: Commerce.
President, Sigma Tau Pi, Eastern Progress Staff, Milestone Staff, Football, Baseball,
Student Instructor.
Roy is one of those rare spirits possessing the ability to do many things well and the
energy to express this versatility. Although he excels in classroom work, his activities
are far from being circumscribed by the narrow limits of this work. Roy will be re-
membered primarily for his work in the commerce department, and his efforts to stimulate
interest in the commercial field. Roy has all the qualities necessary for success in his
chosen field.
"He is a true friend, upright, straightforward and honorable;
What more can be said?"

ROBERT K. SALVERS, A. B.
"Bob"
RICHMOND, KENTUCKY.

Football, Basketball, Little Theater Club, Sigma Tau Pi, Editor Eastern Progress.
The class of '29 takes one of Eastern's best and most popular men away from the
campus and its activities. Bob is one of those fellows who stand for the best in life and,
by his example, encourages all he meets to better things. He is a typical college man —
the sort that develops mental strength with physical. His smile is enough to make him
popular, to say nothing of his scholastic attainments and success in athletics.
"The world means something to the capable."

FOREST S. THOMPSON, A. B.
"Forest"
MYERS, KENTUCKY.
Major: Social Science.

He is an obliging, courteous gentleman of the old school. He is an earnest, hard-

ourselves; it takes no rise from outward things whatever you may believe."
"Waste not thy gifts
In profitless waiting for the god's descent

She always has a ready "howdy" for everyone. Her kind words and winning smiles
have soothed ever so many aches. She has led a very busy life the last four years, for
besides her school activities she has been an efficient housekeeper. She has a purpose in
life, and we predict that her Christian character will have much influence for good in
whatever she undertakes.

Thelma. better known to her intimate campus chums as "Wag"', is one of the famous
"Hail-fellow-well met variety. She wears a smile continuously, when she is not chewing
gum, and radiates mirth and laughter wherever she goes. When one tries to analvze
"Wag" there is a pause similar to that of a freshman exposed to one of Doctor Albers'
famous math exams. The feat is almost impossible.
"To see her is to iconjer.
To know her is to love her."

There is no one like her. A friend to everyone, a jolly good sport, a believer in
Eastern and a staunch supporter for everything that is good for Eastern's progress.
Such are the characteristics of Stella. She has joked with us, laughed with us, studied
with us, played with us, fought with us and never have we found anything that did not
show a sincere wish and desire for the welfare of us all. That is why we love her.
"It's the songs ye sing and the smiles ye wear
That's a-makin' the sunshine everywhere."

President Senior Class, V. \V. C. A., Upper Cumberland Club.
To the friends that really know Mildred, she is an all round girl and true friend.
She is one member of the senior class about whom we may say with certainty "She will
succeed." Her character and mental ability offer the most reasonable guarantee in sup-
port of this statement. She is a conscientious worker, a good student, and an enthusiastic
supporter of her Alma Mater.

Mildred is just about the finest girl in this wonderful senior class. She is a quiet,
but active member. Not only does she take an interest in all college activities, but she
is one of the best students in the class. During her college career she has made many
lasting friends, to whom she has always proved faithful. She has met all the ups and
downs of college life with a smile. We prophesy a bright future for her.

Hobart ha* a quiet, reserved, dignified manner and has nothing of the frothy, friv-

time." We wish for Hobart the best of all success as he goes out from among us, and
we are sure that a man with his character and ability can meet with nothing but happi-
ness. His courteous manner would gain for him a respectful hearing anywhere.

"Gin" spent her first three years of college in O. W. U„ Delaware, Ohio. Though
she has been with us only during this year, in that time we have found that she is an
all-around girl. She has won her way to the hearts of the cla^s, and we wish that
she could have been with us during the four years. She loves life; to her it is living,
not simply being.
"She was active, stirring, all fire —
Could not rest, could not tire —
To a stone she might have given life."

Qlass of '30
How quickly the years roll by! As we are about to pass another Milestone,
we begin to realize that it is the third since we came to Eastern, and we stop to look
back over the years that we have spent here and view the many things that have
happened.
In September, '26, we came to Eastern from all parts of Kentucky — -a large
<jroup of strangers in a strange land. We were green, just as all freshmen have
been throughout all time since their beginning. The strange part of it is we didn't
really realize we were green until very forcibly reminded by our superiors, the
sophomores. I don't suppose we actually realized what college life was all about
anyway until we were all enrolled and well started in our classes. By this time
Mr. Carter had taken us in charge and helped us over the roughest places.
In September, '27, the class of '30 arrived again at Eastern, but this time, a
much smaller and far wiser group. By this time we had outgrown our childish ways
and we took it upon ourselves to take the new freshmen, the class of '31, in hand
and bring them up in the way they should go. Under the guidance of Mr. Mattox
man\r of our number received life certificates with the minimum amount of trouble
and went into the field to teach.
September, '28, found us again at Eastern, this time with a deeper knowledg;
of the meaning of an education, a deeper love for Eastern, anil a deeper desire
to work for her. We now fully realize the truth of the saying, "Give unto Eastern
the best that you have and the best will come hack to you." And so we go about
our work, quiet anil unassuming, seeking to do our best to render service, using
this poem as our motto:
Do not then, stand idly waiting
For sonic greater work to do;
Fortune is a lazy goddess
She tail/ never come to you.
Go and toil m any vineyard
Do not fear to do and dare
If you want a field of labor
You can find it anywhere.

Sophomore Qlass History
We, the present Sophomores, entered the sacred portals of Eastern Teachers
College in September, 1927. Under the leadership of our class president, Mr.
Henry Arnold, and other class officers, Misses Thelma Moreland and Nell
Pelphrev, we weathered the stormy seas of our Freshman year. Thoroughly razzed
and looked down upon by upper classmen we steadily forged ahead, lending our
support to all school activities.
Air castles, desires, ambitions and longings filled our heart, mind, and soul
until we finally attained the noble ranks of Sophomores, the wisest of all. We
were saddened just a little in September, 1928, when so many faces failed to
reappear. Still that same old determination for success was there, and at once we
organized our class. The following officers were elected: President, Mr. Robert
Davis; Vice-President, Miss Emily Land; Secretary, Miss Nell Pelphrey; and
Treasurer, Mr. William Cornett.
It was the active parts, which members of this group took from the verv
first, that made this Diploma Class outstanding. We have been ably represented
on the football, basketball, and baseball squads and the Progress Staff. Our class
has also received due honor in furnishing the presidents of the following clubs:
Little Theatre Club, Home Economics Club and The Upper Cumberland Club.
Some of us are ready to launch out into our teaching career. We have suffered
both triumph and defeat within Eastern's walls and have grown to love her in these
past two years. No matter what our future may be her indelible influences will be
written on our lives.

Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of education all the

me. For lo! am I not a member of that class which has reaped honors in scholastic,
dramatic, and athletic fields? Am T not a member of the three hundred throng
known unto all as Freshmen Have I not attended chapel regularly walking fondly
beside the other members of my most learned class? Yes, be it known throughout

-Athletics at Eastern
The growth that has placed Eastern among the foremost colleges of the
south has been along many lines. About a year ago application for membership
in the Soutlhern Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association was filed with officials of that
organization. As a result Eastern became an active member with the beginning of
the present school year.
This move made it necessary to employ a treshman coach and enter into col-
lege freshmen athletic contests, the first time in the history of the institution that such
has seen so. Such a move placed a great handicap on varsity athletics for the past year,
but only for a short time. Eastern produced one of the strongest freshmen basket-
ball teams in the state and the same fellows played good football, insuring Eastern
of better teams next fall.
All athletics at Eastern are under the direction of the Athletic Committee com-
posed of members of the faculty. They are as follows:
A. B. Carter, Chairman
George Gumbert
R. A. Edwards
T. E. McDonough
George Hembrec

C. A. Keith

1928 Football Season
Eastern's 1928 varsity football season was far from a success. The fact that
the Maroons did not win a single game out of the fix played is no reflection on the
coach.ng staff.
This was Eastern's first year to take part in athletic contests as a member of the
Southern Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association. Members of that organization are
not allowed to use freshmen on the varsity teams, making some very valuable men
ineligible for this year.
It was necessary for Coach Hembree to build a team of green material around
six letter men from last year's squad. Five of the six men, Captain Combs, Trip-
lett, Crace, Clifton and Dial were linemen, insuring the foundation for a fair
line. But before the season was over Triplett, Combs and occasionally Dial had
to be called to the hackfield to help Guy, the only letter man in the backfield.
Six of the seven scheduled games were played, the Thanksgiving game with
Western being canceled after it was found impossible to play it because of injuries
to all the old men and some of the new ones.
The freshmen, under the direction ot Coach McDonough, played five games,
the number allowed by the S. I. A. A. They were much more successful than the
Maroons, winning three of their tilts.
Much good material was found in the freshman squad and with plenty of hard
work next fall there is no reason why the Maroons shouldn't at least break even
in their football schedule.

1928-29 Basketball Season
It cannot he raid that the Maroon basketball squad's season was a success nor
can it be said that it was a failure. They failed to win a majority of their games,
but then we must consider the fact that basketball in Kentucky colleges is stronger
than ever before and that the Maroons were handicapped, to some extent, by the
freshman rule although not as much so as in football.
The worst defeat of the season was administered by the Tigers of George-
town College. However, Georgetown had the strongest team in the state ex-
cepting the University of Kentucky.
The Maroons were able to take their second game with Western, the first time
they were able to defeat the hoys from Bowling Green in several seasons. The
strong University of Louisville team was held to low scores during the regular
season as well as the game played in the tournament at Winchester.
This was Captain Beckham Combs' last year to play with the Maroons. Comta
has been here for several years and is probably one of the best football and basket-
ball men ever turned out at Eastern.
This was Eastern's first year to support a freshman team. It had a most suc-
cessful searon, winning sixteen of the eighteen games played. The two lost went
to the University of Kentucky Kittens, the first hy a doubtful one point margin.
The Little Maroons were fortunate in having a number ot stars on the squad.
Ben Adams and Zelda Hale, regulars on the famous Carr Creek High School team
of last year, and Herman Hale, substitute on the same team, were most valuable
assets to the Little Maroons. Bill Melton, Bill Insko and Tom Deaton, while he
was a member of the squad, were excellent players.
The girls did not play many games. They were able to take one game from
Transylvania and one from Campbellsville, hut lost two to Western. Wood
at center, Clay, Waggoner and Hall at forward, played the best game for the
Maroonettes.

1928 (Baseball Season
The 1928 Maroon baseball season was the most successful season for several vears.
Fourteen scheduled names were played, with the Maroons winning eight of them
for an average of 5 71, the same standing as the year before when there were more
long distant hitters on the squad than at any time for several years.
Some of the heavy hitters of the years before were absent from the batting order,
but the steady hitting of all, and the fine fielding accounted tor as many wins as
the previous year.
No small part of the success of the Maroons goes to two lefthanders that served
them up to the opposing hatters in such a style that they were not able to hit the
old ball anywhere. Raider, from last year's squad, and Hatter, who tosses them
from the left side, are the chap, that made it hard for the opposing batters. Hatter
opened the season against the Colonels at Danville and was directly responsible for
twenty of the twenty-four put-outs during the game. He continued the good work
thruout the season. Raider pitched several good games of ball and when not pitch-
ing was out in right field because of his power with the bat.
Taylor was on the receiving end of the battery again. If anything he was
better than the year before and some stronger with the willow. Moherlv played
at third until it was necessary lor him to drop out of the line-up. Hensley took his
place at third. Cecil Hatter at short, Hampton at first, Deaton and Dial ;Vt second
completed the infield.
Jim Cornett, Fryman, Lines, and Raider, when not pitching, patrolled the out-
field in fine style. Cornett was able to hit the ball with much more regularity than
the season before and Fryman was no easy man at the plate.

The Open Forum, the student organization including all college and normal school students,
has completed a fifth year of constructive work which has been most beneficial to every one
connected with the school. The success of the year's work has been due to the untiring efforts
of the committee which acts as a medium through which the student body works, to the fine
spirit of co-operation and loyalty of the student body, and to the unselfish and whole-hearted
help given by Miss Anna A. Schnieb, faculty member of the executive committee.
The outstanding things accomplished are:
i. Bringing prominent speakers to their assemblies
Colonel Morrow, Mr. Bogart, Sr., Mr. Geovonalia, Dr
Hayes of Washington, D. C.
2. Raised $151 for Red Cross Florida Relief and for memberships.
Established a scholarship fund and continued the scholarship work started last year.
Sponsored the Junior Red Cross exhibit.
Earned and saved over $300 for the Student Loan Fund.
Sponsored four art exhibits, financing two: Chester Springs exhibit of thirty-three
paintings; Elizabeth Kei:h Wood Block exhibit of forty-four paintings.
7. Brought Christmas cheer to the community by singing carols and leaving Christmas
greens at the hospital and a number of homes.
Gave a large floor basket to each of the girls dormitories.
9. Established and executed a plan for correct daily use of the American flag.

15he Eastern (Progress
The Eastern Progress is the official student publication of Eastern, and is issued
every other week' during the school year. Since there is no journalism department
at Eastern, the major staff officers are elected and the remainder filled by appoint-
ment from those students who are interested in journalistic work.
Prior to last fall the Progress was a five column paper, with seventeen inch
columns, usually four pages. With the selection of a new staff in the fall, it was
decided that this size was too small, and after the first issue, which was the usual
size, the paper was made a column wider, and beginning with the first December
issue, the length was increased by two inches. In addition to this increase in the
size of each page, more than half the issues have been six or eight passes. As a re-
sult, more space has been devoted to school news and features than ever before in
the history of the paper, without any disadvantage to advertisers.
In addition to those already a part of the paper, many new ^features have been
initiated. Regular departmental heads for Chapel Notes, Social News, Alumni Ne\v^,
Exchanges, and others have been adopted. New features which have been incor-
porated are Margery Mix, who gives advice to the lovelorn, Library Whispers, Train-
ing School Column, Sports High Spots, With Our Poets, K. I. P. A. News, Campus
Philosopher, President's Column, Progress Platform, and the Letter Box, which is
open to student and faculty opinion. Greater emphasis has been placed on the edi-
torials, which are written by the editor on timely subjects, and printed in larger
rize, distinctive type. A feature of long standing, The Prowler, has also been con-
tinued with great success.
School and local news have received greater emphasis this year, and progress
toward more uniform make-up and definite style has been made. The attempt
has been made to secure timely cuts at all times, and only one issue of the paper
has failed to contain one or more cuts of special interest. Definite progress along
other lines has been made in all departments.
A feature of the activities of the Eastern Progress this year was the convention
of the Kentucky Inter-Collegiate Press Association, sponsored by the publication and
held at Eastern March 1
The largest attendance in the history of the or-
ganization was present, and a complete program was arranged and presented.

Sigma Tau Pi, formerlv the- Commerce Club, is the official organization of the commerce
students at Eastern. It has been in existence for three years, having been an institution in
the commerce department since its establishment.
Sigma Tau Pi is open to all students in commerce, and its primary purpose is to promote
the welfare of this group and to provide a working organization for those of kindred in-
terests. Bv means of its varied activities, it attempts to provide for social and educational
growth as well as furnished recreation.
At the beginning of the fall semester in 192S, the club was entirely reorganized, the
new name adopted and an official pin designed and obtained by each member desiring it.
Later a constitution was drawn up and accepted, and the organization is now functioning
smoothly and regularly.
The meetings held by Sigma Tau Pi are of varied types. In addition to the regular
executive sessions, dinner meetings are occasionally held, at which speakers from other col-
leges address the club members and their guests. One of the outstanding dinners of the
year was that given bv Sigma Tau Pi, co-operating with the Exchange and Rotarv clubs of
Richmond. Sigma Tau Pi also gives several dances each year. During the meeting of
the Kentucky Inter-Collegiate Press Association held at Eastern, the club co-operated with
the Eastern Progress in entertaining the delegates from the various colleges.
During the past year the organization has undergone a remarkable growth, membership
now being forty-two. Professor A. ]. Lawrence, head of the commerce department, is
Club adviser, and other members of the faculty co-operate with the club in its activities.
