To  the  Members  of  the  Graduating  Class  of   1929: 


Accept  my  hearty  congratulations  upon  your  successful  completion  of  the  junior  college 
course.  I  can  assure  you  that  this  is  no  mean  accomplishment.  The  very  fact  that  you  have  reached 
this  objective  shows  that  you  are  possessed  of  some  distinguishing  marks  of  merit.  For  every  one  of 
you  who  is  finishing  this  course  there  are  at  least  twenty-five  or  thirty  others  who  entered  grade 
school  at  the  time  that  you  did  who  have  fallen  by  the  wayside,  so  far  as  their  educational  program 
is  concerned.  The  fact  that  you  have  carried  on  to  the  end  is  no  small  compliment  to  your  ability 
and  to  your  determination.  At  the  same  time,  this  distinction  that  is  yours  carried  with  it,  as  do  all 
distinctions,  added  responsibility.  The  world  has  a  right  to  expect  more  of  you  than  ;t  does  of  the 
other  twenty-five  or  thirty  to  whom  I  referred.  My  chief  hope  for  you  is  mat  this  expectation  will 
not  result  in  disappointment,  so  far  as  you  are  concerned,  and  that  you  will  continue  to  press  on- 
ward and  upward  to  the  large  career  of  which  you  are  capable. 

One  thing  which  we  have  hoped  to  impress  upon  you  at  Tennessee  Wesleyan,  and  which,  I  be- 
lieve you  have  come  to  recognize,  is  the  fact  that  the  successful  life  consists  in  doing  successfully  every 
task  that  comes  to  hand.  I  trust  .that  this  may  be  a  guiding  principle  for  each  of  you.  My  best 
wishes  go  with  you. 

Yours  sincerely, 
PRESIDENT  JAMES  L.  ROBB.

HISTORY  OF  THE  CLASS  OF  '29 


It  was  spring  and  all  the  world  was  happy.  The  event 
called  for  just  such  a  seascn  as  Spring.  The  class  of  '29  at 
old  Wesleyan  was  making  its  final  preparations  to  say  adieu 
to  the  shaded  walks,  and  whispering  trees,  and  the  soon- lo- 
be-silent halls  deprived  of  their  laughter  and  the  busy  hum 
of  students  at  work.  Old  Wesleyan  had  guarded  the  class  oC 
'29  well;  some  had  entered  her  portals  as  tiny  acorns  and 
grown  to  be  mighty  oaks  that  could  stand  the  hardest  win- 
ters and  severest  storms  of  life. 

But  now  in  the  Spring  of  '29  the  time  has  come  when 
friends  must  part,  some  to  meet  again,  some  maybe  never  to 
meet  again.  The  last  one  has  gone  and  as  I  stand  on  the 
bottom  step  in  the  archway,  where  I  have  so  many  times 
stood  and  watched  the  Seniors  as  they  passed  in  and  out  the 
campus,  I  think  of  what  the  future  holds  for  my  comrades; 
but  breaking  my  reverie  I  myself  take  the  last  step  and  am 
no  longer  a  student  of  Tennessee  Wesleyan. 

Tempus  fugit.  A  thousand  years  have  elapsed  and  I,  a  dis- 
embodied apparition,  cannot  rest  till  I 
have  found  a  history  which  seems  to 
have  been  lost.  It  is  the  history  of  the 
class  of  '29.  After  a  search  over  the 
mass  of  ruins  of  what  was  once  the 
buildings  of  the  college  I  was  about  to 
give  up  in  vain;  yet  something  caused 
me  to  search  on.  Day  after  day  I  toiled 
on  in  what  seemed  to  me  an  endless 
search.  The  spirit  of  Professor  Fisher 
was  laughing  sarcastically  at  my  end- 
less search  for  this  bit  of  truth  and  I 
was  growing  weary;  my  spirit  was  bent 
and  heavily  burdened,  but  I  stumbled 
on  in  hope — over  the  huge  stones  and 
masses  of  bricks  and  steel.  Book  after 
book  I  found  do,  here  was  Tom  Cash's 
long  lost  Economics  which  nearly  drove 
him  mad  way  back  in  the  Spring  of  '29; 
and  here  was  Miss  Johnson's  cracked 
stove  with  a  bale  of  hay  wire  merrily 
defying  the  efforts  of  time  to  render  this 
warm-hearted  friend  of  the  students 
apart.  And  here  is  a  record  of  love's 
coming  to  life  after  a  winter  of  hiber- 
nation. It  was  a  balmy  Spring,  that  March  of  '29.  Vally 
should  have  been  more  careful.  Kemp  told  her  to  burn 
his  notes.  I  thought  perhaps  that  this  valuable  docu- 
ment might  have  been  stolen  by  Mrs.  Hammontree  and 
that  she  had  tucked  it  away  in  her  laboratory.  But  the  day 
was  over  and  my  spirit  returned  ten  minutes  late  for  the 
first  period  class  the  next  morning.refreshed  for  a  hard  day's 
search.  As  the  sun  was  casting  its  oblique  beams  on  my 
weary  back  I  had  nearly  given  up  hope.  All  day  I  had  been 
searching  amidst  bones  of  innumerable  dissected  frogs,  when 
I  came  to  a  mass  of  unclassified  bones,  fish,  frogs,  grasshop- 
pers, snakes  and  other  denizens  of  the  biology  laboratory. 
This  was  my  last  search.  I  scattered  bones  helter  skelter  and 
there  was  the  precious  history,  the  last  issue  of  the  Nocatule, 
and  now  my  spirit  could  rest  in  quiet  contemplation  of  this 
valuable  record. 

The  eld  North  State  has  contributed  its  part  of  the  stalwart 
sons  of  this  class.  When  I  read  the  names  of  Howard  Den- 
nis, Tcm  Cash  and  J.  Walden  Tysinger,  a  picture  came  to  me 


MISS    JESSIE    JOHNSON 
Class  Sponsor 


of  Howard  Dennis  whispering  chapel  announcement  in  lieu 
of  Dean  Miller;  Tom  Cash  with  a  pencil  and  paper  in  his 
hand  at  the  basketball  games,  and  Tysinger  preaching  hell 
out  of  his  congregation  of  sinners. 

Lo,  here  is  a  lone  son  of  Pennsylvania!  Roxy  dragging  his 
heavy  heels  up  to  Miss  Moffitt's  piano  to  frighten  out  of  it 
one  of  the  immortal  compositions  of  his  beloved  Chopin. 

The  old  Dominion  state  contributed  to  the  class  roll,  dig- 
nified and  studious  May  Long,  who  helped  Mrs.  Stone  keep 
her  sheep  in  the  fold. 

Yes,  and  how  in  the  world  did  Howard  Guthrie  get  way 
up  here  from  Florida?  But  that's  just  another  of  Nature's 
phenomena.  Howard  and  his  cornet  are  always  blowing 
around. 

Ha.  bright  eyes  from  Alabama  flash  at  me.  Shades  of  Bir- 
mingham envelop  me  and  I  grow  dizzy  in  the  memory  there- 
of. I  see  Bill  as  if  yesterday,  and  such  a  lot  of  feminine 
loveliness  in  one  personality  is  hardly  believable. 

Windswept  Kansas  also  contributed, 
and  we  find  the  ever  mischievous  Paul 
Terry  here  before  us  in  black  and  white. 
Yes,  he  was  playing  the  villain  in  "A 
Corner  of  the  Campus".  And  if  I  re- 
member rightly  he  was  playing  the  he- 
ro in  another  corner  of  the  Campus. 
We  think  that  this  little  paly  will  prob- 
ably end  in  a  fade  out  at  Cullman,  Ala  , 
with  Gladys  Parker. 

Tennessee  as  characteristic  has  vol- 
unteered many  of  her  sons  and  daugh- 
ters. Here  is  Chatter  Laws  on  the  flag 
head  of  the  issue.  Well.  I  remember 
Chatter  and  her  full  lipped  smile.  She 
could  write,  talk  and  was  she  mischiev- 
ous?— here,  Mrs.  Cummings,  you  take 
the  witness  stand. 

Townley,  what  can  we  say  about  him 
Let  us  quote  his  lugubrious  roommate. 
"Doc":  "Johnson  has  more  ideas  than 
anybody  I  have  ever  seen.  One  weeK 
he  plays  the  sax  and  the  next  the  clari- 
net." His  versatility  included  more  than 
dabbling  in  music.  Classes,  music, 
plays,  literary  societies,  debating,  and  Chatter  were  all  in  the 
day's  work  for  him.  And  Doc  Phillips,  his  roommate,  always 
found  amidst  bottles  labeled  poison,  and  always  doctoring 
somebody  for  something  they  didn't  have. 

Fred  Whitehead  and  his  roommate,  Frank  Sexton,  cannot 
escape  the  searching  eye  of  the  historian.  Fred's  abil-ty  as 
an  athlete  was  only  topped  by  his  ability  as  a  student.  A; 
a  lover  we  refer  you  to  Jim  Lee  for  he  does  not  love  before 
crowds  as  he  plays.  Frank,  known  as  "Crip",  was  noted  for 
his  intricate  discussions  in  Economics  and  his  attention  to 
Doctor  Brock's  daughter. 

The  Jenkins's  "Sweeney"  and  his  uncle,  Hicks,  also  roomies. 
Hicks  felt  like  he  owned  the  place  by  right  of  the  Hcmescea  \ 
Laws;  if  he  had  just  stayed  another  year  Dean  would  have 
given  him  the  deed.  Sweeney  was  the  boy  who  was  a  mem- 
ber of  everything.  Literary  society  member,  chemistry  stu- 
dent, cum  laude.  hash  slinger  at  "Mack's"  and  one  of  these 
mysterious  Pi  Phi  Pi's  who  never  met  before  11  o'clock.

SENIOR  CLASS  PROPHECY 


The  Oriental  Skies!  Far-famed  and  far-sung;  over-reach- 
ing every  poet  land  of  mystery  and  drama.  Heeding  its  woo- 
ing whisper  we  are  enabled  to  learn  a  little  of  the  infinite  and 
to  solve  a  little  the  secrets  which  the  blue  depths  well  know 
but  have  heretofore  pitingly  withheld.  We  leave  the  prac- 
tical world  behind,  while  our  imaginations  wing  themselves 
on  languid,  listless  winds  which  know  not  cloud  nor  storm 
save  as  recollection  past. 

Just  a  year  ago,  in  the  good  year  nineteen  hundred  thirty- 
nine,  we  chanced  to  be  in  Chinese  waters.  (The  purpose  of 
the  trip  is  being  withheld  as  it  has  not  reached  its  fullest  de  - 
velopment  yet).  A  curious  experience  was  experienced  here, 
one  might  say,  which  will  be  set  down  here  at  no  short 
length.  On  the  wharf  at  Shanghai  we  saw  an  old  man  - 
he  seemed  old — sitting  and  talking  and  smoking.  His  small 
beady  eyes  seemed  familiar,  and  as  we  could  readily  see 
that  he  was  not  an  Oriental,  we  inquired.  He  was,  we  dis- 
covered in  the  process  of  our  question- 
ing, Tom  Cash.  He  sat  on  the  wharf 
for  hours  at  a  time  smoking  his  pipe 
and  expounding  Epicurus  et  cetera  to 
the  wharf  workers  and  the  coolies.  The 
sight  of  him  bruoght  back  memories  to 
us  of  our  class  of  twenty-nine  at  Wes- 
leyan.  We  fell  to  making  conjectures 
as  to  what  the  other  members  of  the 
class  were  doing.  While  in  this  frame 
of  mind,  we  were  led  to  an  ale  house, 
where,  coming  into  contact  with  the 
baleful  influence  of  opium  fumes  et 
cetera,  one  member  of  the  group  fell  in- 
to a  stupor — no,  he  didn't  get  drunk — 
and  had  a  nightmare — what  else  could 
it  have  been? — and  the  whereabouts  oi 
every  member  of  the  twenty-nine  class 
were  revealed  to  him.  The  ones  whim 
he  remembered  will  be  set  down  here 
to  satisfy  the  curiosity  of  other  mem- 
bers cf  the  class.  We  have  it  as  fol- 
lows : 

Johnson  Townley,  when  sober,  acts 
in  official  capacity  as  director  of  the 
Townley  School  of  Dramatics.  He  is 
author  also  of  several  popular  songs.  Lee  Elbridge  Rothrook 
writes  the  music.  Among  them,  the  most  recent  is,  "I  don't 
knew  who  kissed  you  first,  but  I've  kissed  you  last."  Roth- 
rock  teaches  music  and  typing  in  some  high  school. 

Among  those  who  are  educating  themselves  off  the  rising 
generation  (of  course  they're  teachers)  are  Eula  Barker; 
Pansy  Thomas;  Beulah  Clayton  who  teaches  dancing;  Jessie 
Kelley;  Prank  Sexton,  who  married  a  school  madam  and 
thus  get  himself  involved  in  the  profession;  Young  Querry, 
who  teaches  Chemistry;  Creed  Mantooth,  who  teaches  Span- 
ish to  the  ninos  de  Espana;  Catherine  Walker,  who  teaches 
Art;  Latham,  who  is  the  county  superintendent  of  public 
instruction  somewhere;  and  Frank  Perry,  who  is  principal  of 
a  colored  school  in  southern  Alabama. 

May  Long  and  Annabelle  Skillern  (People  may  talk  about 
the  Prince  of  Wales   but  it  cannot  be  denied  that  we    have 


PRESIDENT   JAMES   L.   ROBB. 
Tennessee   Wesleyan   College 


the  Princess  of  Whale,  I  mean  Wales.)  have  gone  into  busi- 
ness for  themselves.  They  pose  for  before  and  after  pictures 
for  a  reducing  tonic. 

After  Marie  Rogers  and  Catherine  Lane  got  into  opera  a 
year  or  two  ago,  New  York  closed  its  opera  houses  to  pro- 
tect the  public.  Who  blames  them?  Marie  is  now  singing 
Dutch  operas  in  Siberia;  Catherine  is  singing  Italian  operas 
in  Argentina. 

Myrtle  Patterson  is  on  the  Pacific  Coast  waiting  for  ships 
which  seem  never  to  come  in.  But  occasionally  they  do  come 
in;  then  "Glory  be,  she  makes  whoopee!" 

Howard  Dennis  is  directing  a  glee  club  in  some  university. 
He  says  that  he  only  needs  twenty-five  or  nineteen  good 
tenors  and  twenty-seven  or  ten  good  basses  to  have  a  good 
club. 

Lura  Cook  recently  lost  a  match  in 
tennis  to  the  contender  for  the  cham- 
pionship. Did  she  feel  like  thirty  cents? 
Absolutely  not!  She  couldn't  possibly 
feel  like  less  than  sixty  cents! 

Rat  Ray  is  a  tailor.  Yes.  you're  right! 
He  makes  clothing. 

Ghormley  and  Tysinger  are  serving 
their  ideals  in  the  Church.  Ghormley 
fills  an  excellent  pastorate.  He  fills  the 
door,  too  when  he  passes  through,  and 
he  fills  a  rather  large  body  when  he 
feeds  his  face.  Tysinger  is  another 
chicken-eating  preacher. 

Hicks  Jenkins  has  been  in  the  state 
penitentiary  for  a  year.  Oh,  no!  What 
a  cruel  thought!  He  isn't  a  prisone<\ 
He  is  the  chaplain.  He  likes  to  visit 
his  nephew,  Eugene,  who  is  a  tooth  me- 
chanic. Eugene  pulls  a  mean  molar — 
if  one  allows  him  to  do  so. 

Ruby  Bailey  is  following  in  the  foot- 
steps of  Aimee  Semple  McPherson. 
Rather  broad  steps  they  are,  but  then 
Ruby  has  rather  large  abilities. 
Fuzzy  Green  tried  a  season  as  Clown 
with  Ringling  Bros.,  but  failed  and  has  gone  into  a  less  re- 
sponsible position — football  coaching. 

Whitehead  started  to  take  the  examination  for  the  Rhodes 
Scholarship,  but  when  he  asked  to  see  Mr.  Rhodes,  he  was 
dismissed  as  incompetent.  He  says  that  he  is  going  to  get 
tiiat  scholarship  if  he  has  to  go  see  Mr.  Rhodes  personally. 
When  he  does  that  he  will  be  wearing  feathered  attachments 
to  his  shoulders  or  asbestos  trousers. 

Wilsie  Wilder  is  married — this  prophecy  includes  two  se- 
niors— and  he  stays  out  late  at  night — running  a  moving  pic- 
ture projector. 

Lucille  Keys  awaits  anxiously  the  close  of  every  baseball 
season.  Her  man  plays  with  St.  Louis,  in  which  village  they 
live. 

Katie  Peterson  discovered  the  trigonometric  functions  of  r 
mousetrap  and  now  lives  off  the  fat  of  the  land.     No,  she 
didn't  marry  a  butcher.    She  patented  a  mouse-trap  with  a 
self  loader,  an  automatic  ejector,  and  balloon  tires.

We  know  the  time  is  almost  here, 
When  we  must  leave  old  Wesleyan  dear. 
We  feel  that  folks  won't  have  to  guess, 
Tc  know  our  class  is  a  success. 


V/e  like  to  think  we've  been  the  best. 
And  what  we've  done  will  stand  the  test, 
We've  tried  a  helping  hand  to  lend, 
And  hope  cur  work  will  never  end. 


They'll  say  the  class  of  twenty-nine. 
Has  been  a  class  with  record  fine. 
At  every  task  we've  set  right  in, 
And  we  have  always  tried  to  win. 


We've  tried  to  let  ambition  lead, 

So  some  day  we  may  each  succeed. 

We  have  not  dreamed  away  each  day, 

We  grasped  each  chance  that  came  our  way 


We've  tackled  Math,  and  French  class,  too. 
The  hardest  tasks  we've  tried  to  do. 
But  with  our  work  we've  had  some  fun, 
There's  been  a  place  for  everyone. 


We  now  stand  on  the  great  divide. 
Looking  on  the  other  side, 
Great  honors  we  hope  we  may  gain, 
Out  there  in  the  world  of  fame. 


We've  met  our  teachers  with  a  smile, 
And  they  have  helped  us  o'er  each  mile, 
We've  been  so  glad  they  would  hlep  us. 
That  we  have  tried  to  never  fuss. 


Time  now  comes  swiftly  rushing  by, 
And  with  our  standards  very  high, 
We  plunge  headlong  into  the  strife, 
And  hope  to  make  the  best  of  life. 


The  world  to  us  is  beckoning, 
And  at  the  time  of  reckoning, 
We  hope  that  we  may  lead  the  line, 
This  dear  old  class  of  twenty-nine.

FOOTBALL   REVIEW 

@ 

Outside  of  one  basketball  game  and  one  or  two  football 
games  the  Wesleyan  students  have  nothing  to  be  ashamed 
of  in  the  way  of  athletics. 

When  a  team  is  beaten  by  a  superior  team  there  is  nothing 
to  be  ashamed  of  but  when  an  inferior  team  humbles  it,  then. 
there  is  something  to  regret. 

Looking  back  over  the  football  season  we  find  that  the 
team  won  five  and  lost  four  games.  They  started  out  like 
a  house  afire  when  they  took  the  game  from  Maryville  Col- 
lege, a  team  with  a  superior  rating,  by  a  score  of  13  to  6. 

As  the  season  progressed  the  team  had  its  ups  and  downs 
One  Saturday  it  would  look  like  a  team  of  well  trained  col- 
legians and  then  it  would  play  the  game  of  a  country  high 
school. 

The  two  games  that  the  Coach  and  team  regretted  were  the 
King  game  and  the  Bryson  game.  The  King  game  went 
fourteen  to  6  and  the  Bryson  game  24  and  6.  These  games 
went  to  teams  which  football  experts  judged  inferior  to  Wes- 
leyan— therefore  the  blot  on  the  Escutcheon. 

The  two  games  which  the  Wesleyan  students  have  the 
right  to  be  most  proud  of  were  the  Union  game  which  they 
took  by  a  score  of  46  to  0,  and  the  showing  against  U.  T. 
Frosh.  Although  the  Frosh  game  was  dropped  by  a  score  of 
34  to  0,  it  was  a  good  game  from  the  Wesleyan  stand- 
point. The  Frosh  had  their  best  team  in  years.  They  had 
the  Wesleyan  eleven  outweighed  much.  They  had  reserve 
material  galore — and  they  used  all  of  these  advantages. 
Six  of  the  Wesleyan  players  were  carried  off  the  field  and 
when  the  game  ended  few  Wesleyan  regulars  were  in  the 
lineup. 

Scoring  for  the  nine  games  give  Wesleyan  a  composite- 
score  of  216  and  her  opponents  118. 


ATHLETICS  AND  SCHOLARSHIPS 

9 

Athletics  are  popularly  thought  of  as  a  barrier  to  good 
scholarship  and  it  is  always  a  subject  of  front  page  interest 
when  a  great  athlete  takes  a  Rhodes  Scholarship  or  some 
similar  scholarship  recognition. 

The  public  in  general  thinks  of  athlet  s  as  students  who 
have  perfectly  marvelous  muscles  but  whose  grades  read 
like  the  thermometer  of  a  polar  expedition. 

The  athletes  of  the  graduating  class  this  year  thoroughly 
disprove  that  athletics  are  a  bar  to  good  scholarship.  The 
valedictorian  of  the  class  has  had  an  athletic  career  running 
fcur  years  back.  He  has  captained  two  teams  this  year  and 
has  always  participated  in  athletics  the  year  round,  taking 
part  .n  baseball,  basketball  and  football. 

Of  the  ether  men  of  major  athletic  standing  who  are  grad- 
uating three  are  rated  by  the  faculty  and  fellow  students  as 
excellent  students  and  the  remainder  as  students  of  more 
than  the  average  ability  and  industry. 

In  this  group  it  would  seem  that  athletics  stimulated  the 
mind. 


ATHLETIC  CUP 


Many  Wesleyan  Seniors  have  never  noticed  the  Athletic 
Cup  which  sets  in  Mr.  Currier's  office.  This  is  practically  the 
enly  athletic  award  given  at  Wesleyan  and  deserves  mention. 

This  cup  was  proposed  six  years  ago  by  Messrs.  Roberts  and 
Blair  and  was  given  by  them  to  the  school.  They  proposed 
that  each  year  the  names  of  students  most  valuable  to  the 
team,  selected  by  the  squad,  should  be  engraved  on  the  cup. 
This  year  the  name  of  Roy  Walden  was  engraved  under  those 
cf  Joe  Durham,  Bullets  Boyer,  Bud  Strange,  Here  Alley  and 
Rube  McCray. 

Two  graduating  players  this  year  have  played  with  ail 
these  men.    Thev  are  Wilsie  Wilder  and  Fred  Whitehead.

GIRLS  IN  ATHLETICS 

@ 

They  are  tanned  in  the  face  by  the  shining  suns  and  blow- 
ing winds. 

Their  flesh  has  the  old  divine  suppleness  and  strength. 

They  know  hew  to  swim,  to  row,  to  ride,  wrestle,  shooi„ 
run.  strike,  retreat,  advance,  resist,  defend  themselves. 

They  are  ultimate  in  their  own  right,  they  are  calm,  clear, 
well  posed  of  themselves. 

It  was  many  years  ago  when  the  poet  Whitman  wrote  those 
words  but  this  graduating  class  of  Tennessee  Wesleyan  and 
the  future  graduating  classes  are  seeuig  and  will  see  it  corns 
true.    It  was  of  the  girls  he  was  speaking. 

We  were  looking  thru  the  "Exponent"  issues  of  the  nineties 
just  the  other  day  and  lo  and  behold  here  was  a  specimen  of 
the  discreet,  shy,  but  somewhat  gay  (it  is  toldi  nineties. 
Her  dress,  her  expression  and  everything  about  her  qualified 
her  for  a  spectator  in  the  athletic  contests  of  her  day. 

Not  so  today.  The  girls  of  Tennessee  Wesleyan  although 
they  were  treated  somewhat  as  a  side  issue,  provided  with 
only  one  activity  and  clothed  in  antiquated  uniforms  came 
out  about  fifteen  strong  for  basketball  and  rivaled  the  bo\s 
in  ability  and  activity.  More  power  to  the  girls.  Here's 
hoping  that  some  day  they  will  have  tennis  teams,  hockev 
teams,  swimming  teams,  coaches  and  equipment,  and  that 
the  Walt  Whitman  prophecy  will  be  even  truer  than  it  is  to- 
day. 


GRADUATING  ATHLETES 

When  the  thump  of  the  pigskin  and  the  thud  thud  of  the 
basketball  is  first  heard  next  year  no  two  of  the  graduating 
Wesleyan  athletes  will  find  themselves  trying  out  for  the 
same  team,  for  the  six  graduating  letter  men  are  dispersing 
to  all  points  cf  the  collegiate  globe. 

Fred  Whitehead,  the  only  four  letter  man  in  the  group  will 
st-11  be  competing  for  the  big  W.  But  this  time  it  will  be  a 
W  of  another  color.  It  seems  that  old  John  when  he  passed 
thru  this  section  of  the  country  also  founded  colleges  in  Ken- 
tucky and  Ohio.  It  is  at  Kentucky  Wesleyan  where  Fred  will 
betake  his  lumbering  frame  and  his  Olympic  manner. 


Howard  Guthrie,  letter  man  in  two  sports,  baseball  and 
basketball  will  follow  John's  trail  out  to  Ohio  and  try  hit, 
batting  eye  at  Ohio  Wesleyan. 

Sweeney  Jenkins,  who  earned  his  yellow  W  as  a  member  of 
this  year's  only  thrice  defeated  basketball  team,  doesn't 
want  to  get  too  far  from  home.    He  will  go  to  U.  T. 

Wilsie  Wilder,  for  three  years  tackle,  seems  to  be  having: 
a  hard  time  making  up  his  mind  (he's  probably  waiting  for 
Bill  to  make  up  hers)  where  he  will  finally  betake  his  athlet- 
ic form  and  argumentative  mind.  He  has  Mercer  University 
in  mind  right  now. 

Fuzzy  Green,  the  smallest  man  in  the  Wesleyan  back- 
field,  will  go  back  on  his  Alma  Mater.  Alabama,  and  try  his 
luck  at  Auburn. 

Red  Latham,  who  matched  Wilsie  Wilder  at  tackle,  savs 
that  he  will  forsake  the  athletic  field  and  locker  room  and 
take  on  professorial  habits  at  the  beginning  of  the  next 
school  year.    He  will  try  his  hand  at  school  teaching. 


TENNIS  AND  BASEBALL 

@ 

Tennis  is  a  coming  Sport  at  Wesleyan.  Besides  the  vari- 
ous amateurs  who  play  for  well  deserved  pleasure  in  front  of 
Petty  every  evening.  Wesleyan  supported  a  tennis  team  which 
need  not  look  askance  from  anyone. 

The  team  composed  of  Jerry  Vestal,  John  Thomas,  Raul 
Leon,  Kyle  Haynes  and  Howard  Guthrie,  up  to  date  has 
played  four  matches. 

In  the  match  with  Hiwassee  College,  the  first  of  the  sea- 
son, they  swept  the  docket  clean,  taking  every  match.  Mary- 
ville  College  fell  before  them  5  to  2.  They  dropped  matches 
to  U.  of  Chattanooga  and  Baylor. 

While  the  college  supports  no  official  baseball  team,  thru 
the  efforts  of  Coach  Haynes  the  boys  have  banded  themselves 
together  into  a  nine  which  has  won  four  and  lost  one  game. 

A  tattered  looking  bunch  they  were  with  uniforms  of  every- 
body from  the  Chattanooga  Lookouts,  to  uniforms  which 
have  no  right  to  be  called  uniforms,  but  nevertheless  they 
pounded  the  old  pill  all  over  the  field. 

Probably  with  the  showing  that  nine  men  can  make  with 
no  effort  at  school  sponsorship,  the  school  will  see  fit  to  put 
out  a  baseball  team  in  the  future.

BASKETBALL 

By  far  the  most  successful  team  on  the  campus  this  year 
was  the  basketball  team  captained  by  Fred  Whitehead. 
A  representative  lineup  of  this  team  which  won  thirteen 
games  and  lost  only  three  would  be: 

Hanna  (F) ;  Vestal  (F);  Whitehead  <C>;  Walker  (G.i; 
Posey  (Gi. 

Substitutes  for  Wesleyan:  Fulkerson  <G>.  Jenkins  (F), 
Davis  (F),  Ragan  (C),  Walker,  Guthrie,  (F). 

This  team  started  out  in  a  manner  which  made  the  stu- 
dents heave  a  big  sigh  and  say:  '  We  won't  get  to  cheer  mucii 
this  winter,"  but  after  dropping  games  to  Birmingham  South- 
ern and  U.  T„  both  four  year  colleges,  they  went  to  the  finals 
in  the  Southern  Junior  College  Tournament  at  Asheville 
without  suffering  a  defeat. 

The  play  cf  the  team  was  characterized  by  a  fast,  clean 
dribbling  and  passing  attack  and  a  close  five  man  defence 
This  method  of  play  made  them  almost  unbeatable.  George 
Hanna  always  led  the  floor  offense  and  the  ball  usually 
landed  in  the  basket  from  the  hands  of  Whitehead  or  Vestal 
to  whem  he  fed  the  ball. 

The  last  home  game  was  the  best  game  played  in  the  Wes- 
leyan gym  last  winter.  In  this  game  the  Bulldogs  won  from 
the  Kncxville  Y,  37  to  11.  Knoxville  was  rated  as  a  mighty 
geed  independent  team. 

The  true  metal  of  the  team  was  tested  on  the  trip  which 
ended  up  the  scheduled  season.  Wesleyan  was  slated  to  lose 
at  least  two  out  of  three  of  the  trip  games  and  she  came 
thru  winning  them  all.  The  last  game  at  Sue  Bennet  was  the 
clcsest  of  the  season,  the  Bulldogs  taking  it  in  the  last  min- 
ute of  play  by  a  field  goal  which  put  them  one  point  in  the 
lead. 

At  the  tournament  in  Asheville.  the  Asheville  Citizen  gave 
them  an  equal  rating  with  any  team  there.  They  won  their 
preliminary  games  by  large  scores  and  only  lost  by  five 
points  to  Bluefield  College,  of  Bluefield.  West  Virginia. 
And  next  year  is  coming. 


SPORT   COMMENTS 

® 


The  Sports  Editor  has  suffered  thru  this  year,  making  nary 
a  comment  on  the  subject  of  sports  in  general  and  as  he  is 


now  singing  his  swan  song  as  a  contributor  to  the  columns  of 
the  noble  Nocatula  he  is  going  to  give  the  subscribers  of 
this  sheet  a  few  of  his  mental  verdicts  on  the  subject  of 
sports  and  sport  editors  w.fchout  extra  charge. 

College  sports  have  suffered  some  very  justifiable  criticism 
from  the  academicians  in  the  past  few  years  because  of 
the  tendency  of  sports  to  usurp  the  first  page  in  college 
newspapers,  relegating  such  things  as  literary  societies,  schol- 
arship societies,  dramatics,  etc.,  to  positions  under  ten  point 
headlines  and  on  the  pages  where  advertising  predominates. 
Commercialism  has  also  been  leading  these  hounds  of  re- 
form a  merry  chase  as  has  the  tendency  of  the  coaches  to 
dictate  the  policy  of  the  school.  One  Chinese  American  stu- 
dent described  the  American  College  as  an  athletic  institu- 
tion where  certain  of  the  more  feeble  were  afforded  an  oppor- 
tunity for  study. 

Our  institution  is  more  cr  le;s  free  of  all  these  so  called 
evils.  Inevitably  so  because  it  is  not  heavily  enough  en- 
dowed to  be  commercial  and  because  denominational  sm  is 
so  prevalent  that  any  other  icrce  must  lift  its  head  with  fear 
and  trembling  for  it  will  sure  get  it  knocked  down  again. 

The  trouble  in  cur  school  is  not  too  much  athletics,  but  too 
little  athletics.  By  this  we  mean  that  the  athletics  of  trie 
school  is  carried  on  by  too  few  people. 

Although  the  modern  youth  is  much  touted  for  his  strength 
of  body  and  freedom  of  spirit,  it  remains  that  the  average 
boy  is  constitutionally  averse  to  physical  exercise  and  that 
the  average  college  graduate  has  a  physical  development 
which  makes  him  unfit  for  a  hundred  yard  dash  and  common 
house  labor. 

This  may  be  the  fault  of  the  modern  trend  of  college 
thought — that  mind  is  more  important  than  the  body— or 
the  modem  methods  of  operation,  which  is  such  in  the  large 
college  that  none  but  the  exceptinoal  can  stand  the  commsr- 
cialized  competition  and  in  the  smaller  colleges  that  so  lit- 
tle equipment  is  offered  and  so  little  variety  of  sports  that, 
it  is  soon  taken  up  by  the  select  few. 

As  we  see  it  this  should  be  combated  in  two  ways — tif  it 
should  be  combated  at  all  and  if  we  are  right  in  our  premiss ' 
— first  the  college  student  should  be  taught  the  value  of 
physical  perfection,  not  merely  from  a  utilitarian  standpoint, 
for  it  is  the  mind  that  earns  the  living  in  this  age,  but  from

an  esthetic  standpoint,  and  from  the  standpoint  of  the  per- 
sonal satisfaction  that  a  perfect  physique  can  give.  Here- 
tofore this  has  been  done  in  a  negative  way.  We  have  been 
told  what  not  to  do  and  we  have  been  given  synthetic  meth- 
ods of  getting  our  play  and  exercise  but  there  has  been  lit- 
tle positive  effort  to  instil  a  love  of  the  body  in  the  minds  oi 
the  students  of  the  country. 

Second  there  should  be  a  positive  effort  to  minimize  the 
importance  of  the  varsity  athletics  and  make  athletics  a 
subjective  rather  than  an  objective  concern  and  to  give  every 
student  in  the  school  the  chance  to  participate  in  the  games 
he  prefers  without  having  to  compete  with  athletic  students. 

If  it  is  deemed  so  very  important  by  the  school  auhorities 
that  the  athletes  should  have  mental  training  we  see  no 
reason  why  it  should  not  be  just  as  important  that  the  av- 
erage student  should  not  have  athletic  training.  Certain  sub- 
jects are  required  of  all  the  students  and  we  cannot  see  the 
great  difference  in  the  intrinsic  value  between  them  and  ath- 
letics. The  athletic  temperament  is  a  classic  quality  and 
should  be  encouraged. 


SPORTS   DISCUSSION 

• 

We  have  listened  to  many  dormitory  bull  sessions  as  to 

the  relative  value  of  the  different  sports  which  are  played  in 
college.  The  discussion  has  usually  been  confined  to  the 
three  major  sports,  basketball,  football  and  baseball.  The 
three  major  sports  are  mainly  for  the  boys  of  athletic  body 
and  temperament  and  should  be  treated  as  such — the  inter- 
est of  the  majority  of  students  in  them  is  the  interest 
of  the  spectator. 

From  the  point  of  view  of  the  player  probably  football  is 
the  more  value,  for  in  it  one  gets  the  combination  of 
track,  wrestling,  boxing,  and  basketball.     It  is  physical  de- 


velopment and  the  enormous  crowds  seem  to  testify  that 
this  is  the  more  popular  from  the  spectators'  point  of  vie>v 
— we  beg  to  differ  we  think  that  basketball  is  the  tenser  of 
the  two  games.  Football  has  all  the  thrill  of  machine  like 
teamwork,  the  thrill  cf  clever  running  and  hard  tackles  but 
it  is  a  game  played  in  stops  and  gees  and  it  is  a  game  played 
in  heavy  pads.  B?.si:ettall  is  a  game  which  requires  as 
much  stamina.  It  is  a  game  which  is  played  with  the  barest 
of  uniform.  The  pretty  play  cf  the  muscled  arm  is  in  plain 
view.  It  is  a  game  played  much  faster  than  football  and  a 
game  taking  a  much  quicker  eye  and  a  clearer  head  than 
football.  The  eye  of  the  spectator  can  never  be  relaxed. 
The  team  work  is  more  evident  and  prettier.  A  one  man 
basketball  team  is  far  less  possible  than  a  one  man  footbpil 
team.  Baseball,  we  think  is  precluded  from  the  race  because 
of  its  professional  aspect  and  because  of  the  slowness  of 
game  allows  inattent'en. 

From  the  standpoint  of  the  student  who  wants  a  good  so- 
cial game  and  a  body  builder  at  the  same  time  we  think  that 
both  tennis  and  golf  are  far  superior  to  the  major  sports. 

When  a  football  player  graduates  from  college  the  chances 
are  that  he  will  never  again  wear  a  football  uniform  and  lire 
chances  are  that  his  fine  athletic  action  will  degenerate  into 
mere  talk  and  reading  of  the  sport  page. 

Both  tennis  and  golf  are  social  sports  which  can  be  played 
with  little  equipment  and  little  organization.  Neither  cf 
them  demands  youthful  vigor  but  both  can  furnish  a  good 
outlet  for  youthful  vigor.  They  are  the  games  which  can  be 
played  with  undiminished  pleasure  throughout  a  life  time 
If  the  technique  of  these  games  not  gained  in  college,  or 
the  majority  of  cases  they  are  never  played.  So  it  seems  to 
us  that  they  should  be  rated  higher  in  the  scale  of  collegiate 
athletics  because  they  are  fitted  to  serve  a  greater  number  of 
people  for  a  longer  time.

THE  RESPONSIBILITIES  OF  CITIZENSHIP 


Winner  of  1st  Prize  in  the  Wm.  Rule  Essay  Contest 

• 

"For  none  of  us  liveth  to  himself  and  no  wan  dieih  to  him- 
self."—Paul. 

Because  of  the  lack  of  responsiveness  on  the  part  of  most 
people,  for  ages  it  has  been  the  habit  of  reformers  to  go  to 
extremes  in  presenting  their  ideas.  With  this  fact  in  mind, 
it  behooves  me  to  try  to  guard  against  writing  of  ideals  that 
only  perfect  beings  can  carry  out.  John  Jay  well  expressed 
the  idea  I  have  when  he  said,  "I  do  not  expect  mankind  will, 
before  the  millennium,  be  what  they  ought  to  be;  and  there- 
fore, in  my  opinion,  every  political  theory  which  does  not  1?- 
gard  them  as  be'ng  what  they  are  will  prove  abortive." 

The  responsibility  of  citizenship  is  not  very  different  from 
any  other  responsibility.  In  every  case  of  accountability  ther; 
is  a  giver  and  a  person  to  whom  something  is  entrusted.  In 
a  sense,  the  giver  becomes  a  creditor  and  the  receiver  a  debt- 
or. Hence,  at  once  appear  two  general  aspects  of  the  re- 
sponsibility of  citizenship.  The  first  concerns  the  making  of 
a  debt  and  the  second  concerns  the  paying  of  that  debt. 

A  child  has  no  choice  but  to  become  a  debt  to  society;  the 
debt  has  been  made  before  he  is  given  a  chance  to  decide 
whether  or  not  he 
chooses  to  be  under  ob- 
ligation. However, 
the  decision  about  mak- 
ing with  the  govern- 
ment what  Roosevelt 
called  a  "square  deal"  is 
up  to  the  citizen  himself. 
Though  a  person  is  not 
born  with  the  power  to 
perform  voluntary  acts, 
and  as  Woodworth,  the 
psychologist,  says.  "Ob- 
viously he  cannot  imag- 
ine an  act  till  he  has  had 
experience  of  that  act." 
he  does  gain  the  power 
progressively  till  at  length  he  assumes  practically  all  of  the 
responsibility  for  his  mental  and  physical  welfare. 

This  is  an  age  of  extended  credit  in  the  business  world. 
As  a  matter  of  fact,  almost  anything  from  a  farm  to  a  pair 
of  shoes  may  be  bought  on  time.  The  idea  of  suspicion  an  J 
distrust  is  less  obvious  than  it  has  been  in  times  past,  and 
today  a  man  no  sconer  hears  that  his  factory  has  burned  to 
the  ground  than  he  begins  plans  for  borrowing  money  to  re- 
build. Such  a  liberal  policy  as  this  should  not  only  be  true- 
in  business  but  in  civic  matters  as  well.  There  being  no  oth- 
er way  of  paying  the  debt  to  society  except  by  first  becoming 
more  indebted,  the  citizen  need  not  hesitate  to  take  the  bes: 
that  his  home  and  community  offer  in  wealth  and  comfort. 
True  it  is,  the  more  he  takes  the  more  he  owes,  but  again  the 
better  prepared  he  is  to  solve  society's  problems  the  easier  it 
is  for  him  to  meet  his  debt. 

Our  talents  in  the  form  of  opportunities  for  wealth,  reli- 
gious freedom,  and  free  schooling  in  this  country  have  not 
been  given  us  to  hide  in  a  napkin  for  fear  of  assuming  re- 
sponsibility for  the  outcome,  but  rather  that  they  may  be  re- 
turned to  the  giver  with  usury.  Perhaps  our  greatest  op- 
portunity is  that  cf  training  in  the  school  for  citizenship.    As 


OLD  CHAPEL 


Dunn  says,  "Education  is  not  only  a  privilege;  it  is  a  duty, 
because  every  citizen  owes  it  to  his  community  to  equip  him- 
self to  render  the  best  citizenship  possible."  Why,  sociolo- 
gists tell  us  that  the  best  way  of  caring  for  the  feeble-minded 
is  in  sending  them  to  school !  According  to  Walter  R.  Smith, 
"Education  is  not  only  the  kindliest  but  the  cheapest  way  of 
dealing  with  all  sorts  of  un-normal  children."  Then  will  not 
education  pay  in  case  of  the  normal  child?  Our  country  h;is 
not  yet  reached  its  capacity  in  supporting  educational  ad- 
vances. Statistics  show  that  the  amount  of  money  spent 
in  1920  for  tobacco  and  cigarette  holders  exceeded  the  expen- 
diture for  public  education  by  more  than  800  million  dollar- 
The  amount  spent  annually  for  insurance  is  twice  that  for 
public  education.  Until  our  masses  and  our  legislators  are 
convinced  that  education  comes  before  idle  pleasure  and  un- 
til everyone  is  willing  to  sacrifice  tremendously  for  the  ad- 
vance of  education,  so  long  will  we  have  poverty  of  thought 
and  lack  of  ideals  in  this  blessed  land. 

We  are  told  that  the  freedom  of  speech  and  press,  the 
right  to  plead  for  redress  of  grievances,  protection  while  trav- 
eling in  a  foreign  country,  the  privilege  of  possessing  arms 
domestic  security,  and  a  fair  trial  in  the  courts  are  points 

of  advantage  which  our 
government  guarantees 
to  its  citizens  over  the 
rule  of  the  savages.  We 
boast  of  liberty  and  free- 
dom. Are  we  free? 
Should  we  like  to  be  at 
liberty  to  do  anything 
whatever  we  pleased? 
Ruskin  wisely  points 
out.  "Throughout  the 
world,  of  the  two  ab- 
stract things,  liberty  and 
restraint,  restraint  is  al- 
ways the  more  honor- 
able." After  a  second 
thought  we  may  not 
want  complete  liberty. 

The  restraint  which  our  government  gives  to  the  citizen  is 
covered  in  the  debt  that  is  thrust  upon  him,  which  debt  he 
is  asked  to  increase  and  to  pay.  No  doubt  many  of  the  peo- 
ple of  America  who  have  secured  naturalization  papers  cr 
who  have  been  born  in  this  country,  for  that  matter,  are 
really  without  a  country  and  are  unworthy  to  sing  "My 
Country  'Tis  of  Thee."  To  be  a  loyal  citizen  requires  more 
than  standing  when  the  "Star  Spangled  Banner"  is  played. 
This  requires  complete  settlement  of  the  debt  one  contracts, 
and  perhaps  a  little  more. 

Just  as  people  hate  to  be  dunned  for  a  grocery  bill,  so  do 
they  hate  to  be  reminded  of  a  civic  debt.  And  in  case  of  the 
latter  debt,  part  of  the  payment  is  often  avoided  by  the  adop- 
tion of  a  way  of  thinking  in  which  the  '  citizen"  is  every- 
body in  general  and  nobody  in  particular. 

It  seems  hardly  necessary  to  say  that  when  debts  are  not 
paid  the  creditor  inevitably  loses  out,  but  many  forget  the 
fact. 

Just  as   the   positive   forms   of   commandments   are   more 
impressive  than  the  negative  forms,  so  I  think  the  power 
of  suggestion  is  stronger  than  that  of  command;  consequenc-

ly,  in  telling  how  the  citizen's  debt  may  be  paid  I  choose  to 
take  the  "can"  attitude  rather  than  the  "should"  attitude. 
Though  there  is  no  definite  point  where  a  citizen  ceases  to 
be  a  debt  to  society  or  where  he  begins  to  pay  back  what  he 
has  borrowed,  in  general  the  time  of  debt-making  belongs  to 
youth  and  the  time  of  debt-paying  to  maturity. 

The  citizen's  first  debt  is  to  the  home.  He  can  pay  it  by 
actively  pursuing  an  honest  vocation.  As  only  three  out  of 
every  ten  in  the  United  States  work,  and  as  these  three  must 
support  themselves  and  seven  others,  it  is  easy  to  see  how 
any  avoidance  of  duty  here  would  play  havoc  with  the  na- 
tion's welfare. 

The  debt  to  the  school  closely  follows.  With  the  late  ex- 
pansion of  school  curricula  to  include  things  formerly  taken 
care  of  by  the  home,  such  as,  physical  training,  manual  train- 
ing, domestic  science,  and  religious  training,  the  responsibili- 
ty of  the  citizen  to  the  school  increases.  The  citizen  can  meet 
this  debt  by  giving  his  time  or  money.  He  will  realize  t'.i? 
latter  means  when  the  time  comes  to  pay  his  taxes. 
Often  an  opportunity  for  canceling  part  cf  the  debt  to  so- 
ciety comes  in  the  form  of  small  jobs  regarding  civic  beauty. 
It  may  be  to  plant  a  few  flowers,  to  keep  the  street  clean  in 
front  of  the  house,  to  mend  a  hole  in  the  pavement,  or  to 
take  care  of  the  trees. 

Regarding  attitude  toward  law,  the  citizen  can  accept  the 
siatu.es  whether  he  likes  them  or  not.  He  can  respect  the 
officials  for  the  office  they  hold  if  not  for  their  own  strength 
of  character.  He  can  discourage  all  forms  of  fun  which  mork 
tl-.e  law  by  not  engaging  in  them  himself. 

Regarding  the  operations  of  the  government,  the  citizen 
can  support  all  efforts  to  secure  an  economical  administration 
of  tl.e  affairs  of  the  community.    He  may  willingly  serve  on 


a  jury  when  the  time  comes  that  he  is  needed.  He  may  re- 
port all  law  breakers  whether  they  are  akin  or  dear  to  him 
or  not.  He  may  strive  to  keep  honest  men  in  public  offices 
by  carefully  studying  the  records  of  the  men  running  for  the 
jobs  and  by  being  strictly  honest  in  his  voting.  He  miy 
spend  seme  of  his  odd  moments  in  finding  out  how  his  gov- 
ernment works  if  he  does  not  know,  and  if  he  does,  he  may 
explain  it  to  someone  who  does  not.  He  can  take  off  a  few 
minutes  from  the  reading  of  the  murder  scandal  or  the  sport 
events  to  follow  the  actions  of  the  legislators  he  has  helped 
to  elect.  He  can  refuse  to  join  his  neighbors  in  puliing  for 
a  road  that  is  neded  in  some  other  community  worse  than 
in  his  own.  Or,  when  the  time  comes  that  no  person  can 
fill  a  particular  public  office  quite  as  well  as  he  himself,  the 
citizen  may  put  himself  to  some  inconvenience  just  to  serve 
his  community  and  country. 

The  citizen  can  be  tolerant  about  other  people's  idiosyn- 
crasies, realizing  that  there  is  no  100  per  cent  citizen,  yet 
acknowledging  that  in  the  midst  of  an  imperfect  people  can 
be  icund  wonderful  examples  of  loyalty  and  gentleness  as 
aptly  illustrated  by  the  life  of  the  late  Capt.  William  Rule,  in 
whese  memory  this  essay  is  written. 

The  responsibility  of  world-wide  citizenship  the  citizen 
may  realize  reaches  his  every-day  life  and  may  be  met  by  at- 
tending to  little  tasks  of  which  the  "still  small  voice"  of  his 
conscience  tells  him,  He  may  not  forget  that  ideas  brought 
together  in  a  mechanical  fashion  about  the  mid-night  hour 
by  the  essay  writer  do  not  always  contain  workable  sugges- 
tions, f.rd  that  ideals  toward  which  he  intends  to  work  must 
be  sought  out  by  his  own  deliberate  thinking.  And  most  of 
all,  the  citizen  may  not  forget  that  in  a  moral  sense  he  is  r. 
steward  of  all  God  has  lent  him  and  that  all  must  be  re- 
turned with  interest. 

THOMAS  MILLIGAN.

(Continued  From  Page  3) 


Katie  Peterson,  whom  I  salute  as  the  salutatorian  of  the 
class,  hails  from  Crossville  (you  will  have  to  look  on  the  map) 
Her  picture  was  run  in  all  the  Tennessee  papers,  for  seldom 
does  a  student  star  in  high  school  and  in  college,  too. 

The  last  of  the  Jellicoans  (he  must  have  been  dumber  than 
the  rest)  went  out  with  the  class  of  '29.  Wilsie  came  to  school 
to  be  a  preacher  and  he  is  leaving  to  be  a  senator  and  later 
President  of  the  United  States  (personally  I  think  he  is  a 
liar,  but  I  will  wait  and  see).  Wilsie  was  a  stubborn  man  to 
run  over  on  the  football  field  and  a  stubborn  man  to  argue 
with  in  English  class.  (This  bit  of  histary  written  by  Tom 
Cash.) 

Marie  Rogers  now  occupies  my  attention.  I  wonder  if  she 
has  a  hair-cut  yet.  Marie,  the  long  haired  vamp,  was  out- 
standing amid  so  many  short  haired  vamps  (upstarts  from 
the  Junior  class.)  She  stood  high  in  her  classes  and  her 
many  friends  grieved  at  the  parting. 

Here  I  see  a  eclumn  called  '  Signed  by  the  Bishop."  Yes, 
I  remember  now;  that  was  Mouzon  Peters'  pseudonym. 
Mouzon's  object  in  life  was  to  live  that  he  might  die.  I 
suspected  him  of  being  a  disciple  of  Sinclair  Lewis,  or  H.  L. 
Mencken,  but  I  was  never  able  to  discover  a  Mercury  in  his 
room.    Anyway  he  was  brilliant  and  usually  sarcastic. 

Sweet  tones  cf  female  voices  now  assail  my  ears.  Cath- 
erine Lane  is  singing  a  solo  and  Imcgene  Carr  is  accompany- 
ing her  at  the  piano. 

I  wonder  if  Lura  and  Pansy  have  ever  taken  that  long- 
planned  trip  to  Chattanooga.  Lura  with  her  laugh,  like 
water  coming  up  out  of  a  pump,  was  a  good  student  in  spite 
of  her  strong  brown  arms.  Her  love  of  beating  boys  at  ten- 
nis, and  her  basket  eye  which  made  her  the  high  scorer  in 
many  of  the  girls'  games.  Athletics  and  chemistry  were  her 
specialties  and  she  was  not  averse  to  boys.  Pansy's  one 
plump  smile  was  her  inevitable  companion. 

My  eagle  eye  alights  on  the  name  of  Vallie  Ogle.  I  was 
never  certain  whether  Vallie  was  a  Senior  or  a  Junior.  She 
could  not  pull  Kemp  up  to  Senior  standing,  so  she  had  to 
go  down  and  associate  with  the  Juniors.  Vallie  was  never 
able  to  finish  a  recitation.  She  told  half  of  it  and  the  Dean 
always  had  to  take  for  granted  that  her  resulting  giggle  was 
meant  for  the  remainder  of  it. 

If  my  memory  is  correct,  Ralph  Smith  hails  from  the 
metropolis  cf  Stanford.  Ralph  is  one  of  the  Waisman  boys 
and  one  of  Prof.  Stubbs'  chemistry  students.  Almost  any 
evening  around  four  o'clock  he  could  be  found  in  the  chem- 
sitry  laboratory  boiling  'things'.  I  always  thought  that  these 
things  were  water,  but  maybe  they  weren't. 

Like  Saul,  Red  Latham  stands  head  and  shoulders  above 
his  classmates.  He  is  the  tallest  man  in  the  class  and  has 
the  reddest  hair.  Red  was  a  football  player,  night  watch- 
man, (he  never  caught  anybody  in  two  years)  and  one  boy 
who  was  proud  of  the  fact  that  he  came  from  the  country. 
He  never  even  claimed  a  village  for  his  home  town. 

After  viewnig  Red  Parrot  and  Buck  Weaver  (pardon  me 
for  mentioning  so  insignificant  a  person  as  a  Junior)  we 
hardly  see  hew  Newport,  Tenn.,  can  send  out  such  contradic- 
tory people.  Paul  and  Creed  Mantooth  did  their  work  quiet- 
ly as  contrasted  with  the  whoopee  methods  of  Red  and  Buck. 
Marjory  Ledfcrd  came  into  prominence  on  a  wave  of  Car- 
lyle.  Carlyle  was  the  cpen  sesame  for  her  scholastic  ability 
(in  English),  for  members  cf  the  English  class  will  remember 


that  it  was  she  who  stuck  by  Professor  Fisher  till  the  bitter 
end  on  that  long  ordeal  thru  Sortor  Resartus. 

Ruby  Bailey,  the  quietly  efficient  president  of  Wesleyan 
Service  Club,  although  one  of  her  high  ideals  faded  into  an 
illusion  when  her  coming  young  Bishop  Harvey  Cook  forsook 
her  for  other  girls,  nevertheless  retained  the  most  of  them 
and  remained  one  of  the  idealists  of  the  class.  She  was  a 
geed  student,  a  quiet  but  thorough  thinker,  and  had  a  high- 
ly communicable  faculty  for  expressing  her  thoughts. 

I  sometimes  wonder  if  Mary  Lena  is  going  to  get  married 
or  teach  school,  but  I  have  never  decided.  You  see  she  is 
specializing  in  Home  Economics  and  I  am  sure  that  she  will 
do  cne  of  the  two. 

What  I  thought  to  be  a  true  romance  story  turned  out  to 
be  a  brother  and  a  sister,  but  I  was  not  the  only  one  fooled, 
for  every  cne  thought  that  Eula  and  Creston  Barker  were 
madly  in  love,  and  that  no  other  relation  existed. 

Ernest  Davis'  many  faculties  as  student  and  his  many  so- 
cial qualities  made  him  one  of  the  all-around  boys  of  the 
elzss.  Ycu  felt  the  presence  of  this  sandy-haired  lad,  and 
yet  lie  never  made  a  great  noise  about  himself;  he  seemed  to 
just  shp  into  the  crowd  and  there  you  are — that's  Ernest. 

Here  are  some  more  prominent  members  of  the  Senior 
class.  Jessie  Kelley's  class  record,  especially  in  English,  is 
one  that  every  student  does  not  make.  Little  Keys,  I  guess 
she  is  outstanding  in  keeping  'Lefty'  in  right  trim.  It  seems 
that  Jordan  is  the  next  name  to  shine.  She  has  slipped  into 
cur  midst  since  last  term  and  her  scholastic  work  ranks 
among  the  highest. 

Beulah  Clayton  and  Cecil  Cox  are  the  next  on  trial.  Mrs. 
Stone  says  'she  is  very  mischievous,'  that  will  do.  Beulah,  you 
are  a  good  Senior.  Cecil  is  noted  for  her  long  comments  in 
English  class. 

Frank  Perry  is  almost  a  stranger,  but  we  claim  him  as  a 
Senior.  I  have  been  thinking  if  Frank's  ability  as  a  singer 
would  some  day  make  him  famous.  'Rat'  Ray  is  another  one 
of  those  fellows  who  keep  their  doings  a  dark  secret;  but  I 
guess  it  is  best. 

Some  contrasts — here  is  Annabelle,  the  biggest  all-around 
girl  in  the  class.  Annabelle  has  a  very  pleasing  smile,  (she 
tells  me  a  lot  of  lies)  and  is  a  big  friend  to  every  one.  And 
here  is  Evelyn, — the  contrast  is  not  in  friendliness,  for  sel- 
dom do  we  see  Evelyn  but  what  she  is  smiling. 

Myrtle  with  her  high  ideals  and  her  quiet  way  of  express- 
ing herself  has  won  many  friends  in  the  class  and  she  will  be 
long  remembered.  Dorothy  is  from  that  far  West  state  uf 
Washington.  Dorothy  is  an  actress  and  I  am  beginning  to 
believe  she  is  about  to  start  a  life  long  play. 

Here  are  three  Seniors.  Swafford,  Williams,  and  Querry. 
They  all  put  out  to  sea,  and  one  is  already  married — the 
ethers  soon  will  be. 

The  last,  but  not  the  least  is  Rupert  Ghormley  (I  am  the 
first  who  has  ever  had  the  nerve  to  call  him  Rupert).  Ru- 
pert has  several  distinctions.  He  is  chubby,  bald,  and  cheru- 
bic. He  is  one  preacher  with  a  high  sense  of  humor.  Rupert 
did  good  class  work  and  was  an  ardent  supporter  of  all  the 
activities  of  the  school.  The  girls  liked  to  tease  him  because 
he  is  the  only  man  in  the  senior  class  who  has  to  account 
for  himself  when  he  comes  home  at  night.  Mrs.  Ghormley 
sees  to  that.

Mrs.  Ketron:    (seeing   Mouzon   Peters   leaving   the   dining 

room  with  a  hunk  of  meat)  "Did  you  not  have  enough  to  eat. 
Mcuzon?" 

Mouzon:  'Yes  ma'am."

I  received  a  check  from  heme.  I  asked  Smith  to  Cash  it 
for  me;  this  he  did.  I  tool:  the  money  and  bought  Gas  to  fill 
the  tank  of  my  Carr.  Everything  was  all  set;  me  and  marie 
got  in  and  rolled  off  down  the  Lane  and  out  into  the  cedar 
grove — there  we  stopped.  She  said,  "Let's  Parker."  'Suits 
me,  I  said,  "but  let's  be  sure  there  are  no  Laws  around  ior 
we  may  want  to  Terry  here  a  Long  while."  As  we  sat  on  the 
Green  grass  and  gazed  upon  the  flowers  with  slender  stems 
and  Whiteheads  I  felt  as  though — well,  in  short,  my  heart 
went  Pat-ter,  Pat-ter,  Pat-ter,  and  as  I  plucked  violet,  rose 
and  Pansy  I  told  her  I  had  one  Querry  to  ask.  She  says, 
"I'm  waiting,  Fisher  out."  As  I  told  her  my  Love  I  placed 
tlie  floweis  in  her  hand  and  asked  that  she  keep  them  as  the 
Keys  to  my  heart.  I  promised  that  if  she  would  be  my  Bak- 
sr,  Cooke,  Ray  of  sunshine.  I  would  employ  a  Sexton  immedi- 
ately. She  turned  her  smiling  face  toward  me  and  the 
sweet  look  she  gave  grew  slowly,  Wilder  and  Wilder,  and  the 
answer  she  gave  curdled  my  blood — I  stood  as  a  Stone  while 
my  teeth  began  to  Chatter.  When  I  had  regained  my 
strength  I  said,  as  I  stepped  into  my  faithful  Carr,  I'm  going 
to  ride  back  but  you'll  have  to  Walker." 


"What  can  be  done  with  the  by-products  of  gasoline?" 
"Usually  they  are  taken  to  the  hospital."

Townley:  "Do  you  see  that  scar  on  my  face?  That's  my 
birthmark." 

Fuzzy:  "Is  that  so?'" 

Townley:  "Yes,  I  took  a  sleeper  last  month  and  got  into 
the  wrong  berth." 

®  ® 
Querry:  "Did  you  hear  the  story  about  the  peacock?" 

Perry:  "No." 

Querry:  'It's  a  beautiful  tale."

Prof.  Douglas:   "If  a  man  springs  from  a  monkey;   wl
