Our  cyllma  cTWater 

A  search  is  the  thing  He  hath  taught  you 
For  Height  and  for  Depth  and  for  Wideness. 

WITHIN  the  thought  of  these  two  striking-  lines,  inscribed  over  the 
entrance  of  our  first  building,  may  be  discerned  the  key  to  the 
resurrection  of  Old  Oglethorpe  College  which,  with  its  Doric  col- 
umns, stood  on  Midway  Hill  in  Milledgeville,  then  the  capital  of  Georgia, 
in  the  early  nineteenth  century  as  a  tribute  to  education  in  the  South. 
And,  too,  the  thought  of  these  lines  may  be  described  as  the  palpitating 
note  in  the  heart  of  that  modern  philanthropist.  Dr.  Thornwell  Jacobs, 
our  founder  and  president,  as  he  went  about  indefatigably  in  his  effort  to 
bring  the  old  institution  to  life. 

These  almost  living  structures  of  blue  granite  which  surround  us 
today  are  not  "new"  in  the  sense  of  appliance  to  the  University.  The  dig- 
nity, honesty,  reliability,  reverence  and  beauty  expressed  in  them  reflect 
over  a  span  of  more  than  a  century  when  a  gi'oup  of  men  organized  the 
Georgia  Educational  Society  with  the  avowed  purpose  of  giving  an  educa- 
tion to  every  youth  in  the  Southland.  From  their  earnest  endeavors  grew 
Old  Oglethorpe. 

And  from  Old  Oglethorpe  comes  the 
ideas  and  ideals  of  our  University  today! 

Let  us  take  a  retrospective  view  of 
the  historical  genesis  of  our  Alma  Mater. 
We  find  that  the  educational  society  spok- 
en of  in  the  above  paragraph  as  early  as 
1809  began  a  movement  which  culminat- 
ed in  the  astablishment  of  a  Theological 
Seminary  for  the  southeast.  Before  they 
had  finished,  three  great  institutions 
sprang  up,  blazing  the  trail  for  similar 
ones  throughout  the  South  afterwards. 

The  first  of  these,  an  institution  of 
power  which  was  graduating  the  manhood 
of  the  southeast  into  careers  of  useful- 
ness, was  Old  Oglethorpe.  In  the  decade 
of  the  fifties  we  learn  that  the  school  had 
prospered  and  become  the  one  great  in- 
Lupton  Hall  Tower  stitution   of   the   South,

Among  its  foremost  professors  and 
graduates  we  find  the  name  of  the  im- 
mortal Sidney  Lanier,  who  finished  his 
work  in  three  years  and  then  became  a 
tutor  within  the  walls  of  the  college  un- 
til its  sons  marched  to  battle.  We  read 
of  James  Woodrow,  uncle  of  the  twenty- 
eighth  president  of  the  United  States, 
who  was  admired  for  his  scientific  at- 
tainments. There  was  Joseph  LeGonte 
who  ranks  as  one  of  the  greatest  geol- 
ogists America  has  ever  produced. 
Among  her  alumni  we  read  the  names 
of  governors,  statesmen,  discoverers, 
moderators,  all  true  Christian  gentlemen 
of  integrity. 

But,  as  President  Jacobs  so  ably  ex- 
pressed it  in  his  owm  story  of  Oglethorpe, 
the  college  "died  at  Gettysburg."  At 
the  outbreak  of  the  Civil  War,  the  sons 
of  the  Old  College  marched  to  the  ranks,  the  trustees  invested  the  en- 
dowment in  Confederate  bonds,  the  buildings  were  converted  into  hospitals 
and  later  destroyed.      Thus,  Old  Oglethorpe  died. 

From  the  smoldering  ashes  came  the  ideas  and  ideals  and  a  few  good 
souls,  despite  the  evils  of  Reconstruction  days,  made  an  attempt  to  res- 
urrect the  Old  College  in  1870  with  Atlanta  as  the  site.  The  financial 
disaster  at  the  time  made  the  task  utterly  impossible  and  so  the  doors 
were  closed  for  a  second  time  after  a  little  less  than  three  years  of  exis- 
tence. 

A  little  more  than  a  half  century  later  we  find  New  Oglethorpe  located 
in  the  capital  of  the  state  which  was  founded  by  that  great  English  phil- 
anthropist for  whom  the  school  was  named.  And  it  is  championing  the 
ideas  and  ideals  so  deeply  rooted  in  the  Old  College. 

It  was  Dr.  Thornwell  Jacobs,  who,  sixteen  years  ago,  accepted  the 
almost  impossible  task  of  resurrecting  Old  Oglethorpe.  The  story  is  a 
romance  within  itself.  It  began  in  the  youth  of  the  president  when  he 
listened  to  the  tales  of  his  grandfather  who  was  a  professor  at  the  insti- 
tution in  Milledgeville.  It  was  then  that  a  love  for  the  old  school  began 
to  kindle  in  the  heart  of  Dr.  Jacobs. 


^izaamcBaw^

Being  reared  in  a  tiny  South  Carolina  village,  a  population  of  1500, 
he  was  sent  to  Princeton  University,  a  Presbyterian  institution,  and  one 
of  the  most  beautiful  universities  in  the  world.  There  he  dreamed  of  the 
establishment  of  similar  institutions  in  his  native  section  amid  the  praise 
of  other  great  universities  by  his  fellow  classmates  who  came  from  all  sec- 
tions of  the  country. 

And  so  it  came  to  pass  that  "without  invitation  save  from  within,  and 
without  authorization  save  from  above,"  Dr.  Jacobs  came  to  Atlanta  on 
September  13,  1909,  to  refound  the  school  of  his  dreams.  And  there  be- 
gins that  romantic  story  which  ends  in  these  beautiful  buildings  of  ours, 
those  sound  educational  principles,  after  sixteen  years  of  effort. 

The  president,  with  his  corps  of  assistants,  appealed  to  the  good- 
hearted  people  of  the  Southland  and  dollar  by  dollar  was  added.  A  cam- 
paign of  four  years  was  conducted,  the  storay  told  to  people  in  cities, 
towns  and  villages  from  Galveston,  Texas,  to  Charlottesville,  Virginia, 
and  from  Marshallville,  Missouri,  to  Bradenton,  Florida.  The  city  of 
Atlanta  did  its  share,  more  than  seventy  men  subscribing  not  less  than 
$1,000  each  to  the  campaign. 

Despite  conditions  of  turmoil  and  financial  disaster  more  than  five 
thousand  people  have  contributed  to  the  cause,  the  assets  and  subscrip- 
tion pledges  having  passed  the  sum  of 
one   and   a   half   million   dollars.      And 
so   the   corner   stone   of   the   University 
was  laid  on  January  21,  1915  with  the 
.--rf         ^-^^^^^^V^a      motto   "Manu   Dei   Resurrexit"    (By  the 
^^^^^W  4'4%1^SmKl^m^      hand   of   God   she    has   risen   from    the 
WlmLp      Isjyt:^^^^^     dead)   engraved  upon  it.

After  more  than  a  half  century  of 
rest,  Oglethorpe  once  again  opened  its 
doors.  With  only  one  building,  now  the 
Administration  Building,  classes  began 
in  the  Fall  of  1916.  Today  we  find  three 
magnificent  buildings,  plans  underway 
for  a  wonderful  stadium  and  the  Univer- 
sity steadily  improving  in  greatness  as 
well  as  bigness. 

We,  the  members  of  the  Senior 
class,  upon  leaving  the  campus  of  our 
Alma  Mater  as  graduates,  trace  over  the 


i 

wii 


^uRnmcwsm^ 


past  lour  years  and  see  a  vast  improve- 
ment in  the  University.  As  Freshmen 
we  found  only  the  Administration  Build- 
ing and  the  executive  offices  of  Lupton 
Hall  standing.  As  we  leave  we  see  three 
magnificent  structures  and  plans  in  the 
making  for  more  strides  forward. 

To  read  the  history  of  our  Alma 
Mater,  to  stare  in  the  faces  of  these 
buildings,  to  adhere  to  the  teachings  of 
our  president  and  faculty,  is  indeed  a 
stirring  inspiration  and  we  are  justly 
proud  of  such  an  institution  as  our  Alma 
Mater.  We  shall  contribute  our  efforts 
to  its  growth  and  prosperity. 

As  we  go  forth  may  these  words 
forever  remain  in  our  hearts: 


We   have   finished,    we 
We  go,  noble  sons. 
But  from  within  'tis  i< 
Our  work  yet  iindone.

School  of  Science 

m/K^  The  School  of  Science  offers  the  degree  of  A.B.,  in 

'pP^B  Science  by  three  approaches:  those  of  General  Science, 

-Ww  Special  Science  and  Mathematical  Science.     These  give 

J      ^M  to  students  a  varied  selection  to  equip  them  specifically 

^H^  'J^^^^  for  scientific  research  and  for  general  culture.  In  each 
I^Bk'i^^H  ^^'°"P  one-half  the  requirements  for  graduation  include 
^^^B^H^H  the  humanities  of  language,  history,  etc.,  to  insure 
^^^^m^^KM  breadth  of  culture  and  knowledge. 

Of  the  large  number  preparing  for  their  professions  several  have  ex- 
celled at  Columbia,  Harvard,  Hopkins,  Tulane  and  other  institutions.  And 
of  these,  three  have  received  their  doctorates  and  others  are  research  fel- 
lows in  their  respective  branches.  Others,  still,  are  teachers  of  science 
and  practitioners  of  their  professions.  Within  the  short  life  of  the  Uni- 
versity, graduates  from  the  School  have  reflected  credit  on  the  institution 
and  have  become  useful  and  cultured  citizens.

This  School  consists  of  a  full  four  years'  course  in 
studies  relating  to  practical  business  administration  and 
industrial  life.      Upon  its  successful  completion  the  de- 
gree of  Bachelor  of  Commerce  is  conferred.      It  is  the 
f^-   A^  only  professional  school  at  the  University.      It  was  or- 

f^^^^^^     ganized  in  the  Fall  of  1919  by  Dr.  Arthur  S.  Libby,  who 
^^^^H|     then  took  the  office  of  Dean  of  the  School  of  Commerce 
f^^^^^^     and  Business  Administration.      Mrs.  Cora  Steele  Libby 
is  associate  professor. 

The  School  with  its  allied  departments  has  as  its  central  idea  the  pre- 
senting of  a  course  of  study  designed  to  give  an  adequate  and  thorough 
preparation  for  an  executive  business  career.  Among  the  outstanding 
graduates  are:  William  Nunn,  professor  of  Economics  at  University  of

a  preparation  for  life,  to  provide  a  groundwork  for  stu- 
dents who  wish  later  to  pursue  higher  work  in  post- 
graduate schools,  and  to  provide  a  career  and  means  of 
livelihood  for  such  students  as  are  able  to  make  the 
grade  in  any  literary  activity. 

The  chief  method  of  the  department  is  to  encour- 
age constructive  work,  in  the  belief  that  a  student  is  a  growing  organism 
that  grows  by  original  work,  not  a  sort  of  tank  to  be  filled  up  with  know- 
ledge. Hitherto  dramatic  training  and  newspaper  practice  have  engaged 
most  attention  but  not  to  the  neglect  of  other  literary  forms. 

Among  outstanding  graduates  of  the  school  are:  James  Larwood, 
publicity  agent  for  airship  corporation  in  New  York;  Oliver  Gramling, 
with  Associated  Press  in  New  York;  Fred  Stewart,  stage  manager  of 
Stuart-Walker  Company  in  Virginia;  James  Burns,  make-up  and  sports 
editor  of  Atlanta  Georgian;  John  Ottley,  Jr.,  officer  of  Pitcairn  Airship 
corporation ;  Bernard  Dekle,  officer  of  National  City  Bank  of  New  York. 


School  Of  Liberal  Arts 

The  School  of  Liberal  Arts  has  always  been  small. 
When  the  institution  was  opened  in  1916,  it  was  recog- 
nized that  the  commercial  spirit  in  Atlanta  was  strong 
and  that  it  would  be  useless  to  attempt  to  force  all  stu- 
dents to  take  Latin  or  Greek.  So  the  studies  of  this 
School  were  made  elective.  The  department  has  always 
had  some  fine  students.  In  the  first  year  we  had  the 
largest  Latin  class  in  our  history — Powell,  Moye,  War- 
Martin,  Mattox,  Stokeley,  Northcutt,  States  Jacobs  and  a 
The  Greek  classes  have  been  still  smaller. 

Among  the  most  brilliant  students  were  the  Parish  twins,  who  took 
the  third  and  fourth  years  of  the  Greek  course  simultaneously.  An  at- 
tempt is  now  being  made  to  popularize  the  School  by  allowing  a  wider 
range  of  selection  so  as  to  include  the  modern  languages  as  well  as  the 
ancient,  and  by  offering  classes  for  beginners  in  Latin.

School  of  Education 


The  School  of  Education  from  a  vocational  viewpoint 
meets  the  needs  of  those  expecting  to  teach.  From  a 
cultural  viewpoint  it  presents  the  needs  of  those  desiring 
a  deeper  understanding  of  the  mysteries  of  the  mind  and 
heart  especially  as  it  relates  to  all  forms  of  human  con- 
tact problems. 


& 

^^^^^^^^H  The  first  graduate  in  the  school  was  Miss  America 

^^^^^^^^^  Woodberry  in  the  class  of  1921.  Since  then  a  large  num- 
ber of  the  Atlanta  teachers  have  received  either  the  A.B.,  or  the  A.M., 
degree  and  about  one  hundred  Atlanta  teachers  at  present  are  enrolled 
in  the  department. 

The  new  curriculum  is  arranged  so  that  the  required  professional 
courses  are  offered  and  the  other  subjects  are  so  arranged  that  the  stu- 
dent may  concentrate  in  either  one  or  two  lines,  thus  fitting  him  or  her 
especially  for  good  teaching  in  high  schools.

School  of  Secretarial  Preparation 

\  The  department  was  organized  last  year  for  the  ben- 

efit of  the  following  students:  Those  who  wish  to  en- 
ter the  business  world  in  the  capacity  of  skilled  assist- 
ants to  those  in  the  executive  positions;  for  ofRce  man- 
agement and  the  like;  for  those  preparing  to  teach  the 
commerical  subjects  in  the  high  schools  and  colleges; 
for  young  ladies  who  are  preparing  for  work  of  a  literary 
nature,  or  as  social  secretaries;  and  as  an  aid  to  those 
majoring  in  journalism.  The  full  course  comprises  four  years  of  work 
in  which  languages  and  other  subjects  with  a  cultural  trend  are  stressed 
as  well  as  the  skilled  subjects  expected  in  such  a  course.  At  the  close  of 
the  first  two  years  of  work,  provided  a  record  has  been  established  for 
scholarship,  character  and  reliability,  on  request,  a  Certificate  of  Profic- 
iency will  be  granted.  This  is  not  to  encourage  a  premature  capitalization 
of  acquired  skills  but  more  as  an  incentive  to  complete  the  four  years  of 
work  for  the  diploma  and  the  degree.

CLASS 
HISTORY 


By  Evelyn  Silverman 

^^^^  On  a  September  morning  four  short  years  ago,  some 

^Unk         one  hundred  and  twenty  Mothers  and  Dads  smiled  brave- 
^*^H         ly  as  they  bade  fond  farewell  to  their  sons  and  daughters, 

Y"  ▼  off  to  college — to  Oglethorpe!  Sons  and  daughters  from 
^^pC  ^^^  modest  farmhouses,  pretentious  country  homes  and  fash- 
^^^^^^^^  ionable  city  residences — all  mingling  together,  determined 
^^^Hj^HH  to  seek  knowledge — and  the  truth. 

^^^^^^^^  With   the   enthusiastic   aid   of  the   Sophomores,   the 

class  of  '29  was  whipped  into  shape,  as  it  were.  And  ever  since  it  has 
displayed  an  indominable  fighting  spirit  that  makes  for  success.  Hayward 
Thompson,  at  the  first  class  meeting,  was  elected  president  of  the  "rats." 
Haywood  Clement  led  the  class  in  its  second  year;  Thompson  again  the 
third  year,  and  Stanley  Pfefferkorn  guided  its  destinies  during  the  senior 
year. 

On  the  athletic  field,  the  men  of  the  class  of  '29  distinguished  them- 
selves. Many  of  them  held  varsity  berths  the  memorable  year  that  Ogle- 
thorpe defeated  Georgia  Tech  on  Grant  Field.  Among  the  wearers  of 
the  "0"  in  this  class  are  Haywood  Clement,  Jimmie  Sims,  Lindsey  Vaugh- 
an  and  Jake  Malsby. 

On  the  baseball  diamond  we  were  represented  by  Captain  Erskine 
Thompson,  Howard  Lawson,  Jimmie  Sims,  Marion  Anderson,  Lindsey 
Vaughan  and  Manager  John  Crouch.  Clement,  the  athlete,  and  Gillman, 
the  manager,  upheld  the  class  reputation  on  the  basketball  court. 

Mary  X.  Gunter  was  Captain  of  the  Co-ed  squad  for  two  consecutive 
years. 

The  class  of  '29  did  much  to  contribute  to  dramatic  art.  Earl  Black- 
well,  an  officer  in  the  Player's  Club  for  three  years,  originated  the  Petrel 
Follies  and  wrote  "The  Temporary  Vamp"  which  was  produced  at  the 
Erlanger  Theater  on  the  annual  spring  production  bill.  Jake  Sutton  and 
Paul  Madden  are  two  of  the  most  accomplished  actors  of  this  class. 

In  campus  literary  activities,  Hayti  Thompson  is  an  outstanding  fig- 
ure.    In  his  freshman  year  he  was  elected  to  the  board  of  editors  on  the 


guaasacBaM^ 


el 


stormy  Petrel,  and  continued  to  be  a  contributor  to  tlie  paper  for  three 
years.  He  was  elected  Editor-in-chief  of  this  weekly  paper  in  his  junior 
year,  and  gave  the  college  a  season  of  fearless  journalism  which  was  in- 
strumental in  bringing  about  several  commendable  movements.  As  edi- 
tor of  the  Yamacraw,  Hayti  has  shown  that  he's  a  fighting  Irishman  with 
the  will  to  win. 

Homer  Gramling,  Leonard  Hill,  James  Howe,  Clarence  Wells  and 
Evelyn  Silverman  saw  service  on  the  Petrel  staff  as  reporters  and  assist- 
ant editors.  Ray  Todd  has  been  both  writer  and  printer  for  the  paper, 
having  worked  in  the  Printing  Office  during  his  entire  college  career. 
Louis  Gillman  acted  as  business  manager  of  the  Stormy  Petrel  for  two 
years;  Stanley  Pfefferkorn  assisted  him  as  business  manager  of  the  Yam- 
acraw. 

Beverly  Irwin,  veteran  debator,  with  Hayti  Thompson,  James  Howe 
and  Allan  Watkins,  represented  the  class  on  the  Debate  Council.  Their 
keen  young  analytical  minds  and  commanding  deliveries  have  won  for 
Oglethorpe  several  intercollegiate  debates. 

The  highest  award  for  scholastic  attainment  that  the  university  can 
offer — the  coat-of-arms  sweater — was  won  by  Stanley  Pfefferkorn,  Charles 
Pittard,  Thyrza  Perry  and  Bob  Shaw,  who  is  also  a  member  of  the  Phi 
Kappa  Delta  honorary  scholastic  fraternity. 

In  the  campus  musical  activities,  Bob  Shaw  takes  the  center  of  the 
stage  as  the  gifted  director  of  the  Oglethorpe  Orchestra.  And  Homer 
Gramling,  Beverly  Irwin  and  Jack  Murphy  have  made  music  these  past 
years  that  some  musically  inclined  co-eds  will  never  forget.  LeRoy  Tebo 
capably  managed  the  Glee  Club. 

The  "High  Victory"  was  an  outstanding  achievement  of  the  past  year. 
The  seniors  of  the  Commerce  Department  played  an  important  part  in  the 
management  of  the  J.  M.  High  Company  on  that  red-letter  day  in  Decem- 
ber when  the  Petrels  again  defeated  the  Yellow  Jackets,  this  time  in  the 
field  of  business  administration. 

The  members  of  the  class  of  '29  who  acted  as  student  instructors  in 
various  departments  were:  Stanley  Pfefferkorn,  Leonard  Hill,  Hilary 
Bryson,  Earl  Blackwell,  Hale  Kellogg,  Annie  Belle  Wills,  W.  W.  Hill,  E.  B. 
Hill,  Nellie  Kate  Noel,  George  Nowell  and  Antionette  Brown. 

Looking  back  over  this  record  of  the  Class  of  '29,  we  see  always  the 
names  of  its  leaders.  But  we  must  not  forget  those  names  that  do  not 
appear ;  those  men  and  women  who  have  worked  for  their  class  and  Alma 
Mater  earnestly,  honestly  and  conscientiously,  preferring  to  be  a  part  of 
the  harmonious  background  of  the  glorious  panorama  of  the  college  ca- 
reers of  American  Youth. 

"We  have  fought  a  good  fight, 
We  have  finished  our  course, 
We  have  kept  the  faith."

Our  Toast 

By  Eaton  B.  Hill 

Come,  men,  let  us  drink  a  toast  today 

In   water  sparkling   clear, 

From  the  old  red  hills  of  Georgia 

That   Oglethorpe   held  dear; 

Let   us  clink  our  glasses  and  hold  them  high, 

Let   IIS  smile,   no  need  for  tears, — 

We  must  bid  each  other  o  glad  goodbye 

As  we  go  forth  to  meet  the  years. 

Let  us  pledge  our  toast  to  Oglethorpe, 

Our  Alma  Mater's  name; 

Let  us  pledge  our  best  to  Oglethorpe 

The  man  who  sought  no  fame. 

But  left  a  glorious  heritage 

And  wealth  beyond  the  sea. 

To  find  a  home  in  an  untried  land 

For  those  less  blest  than  he. 

We  shall  drink  to  his  nobility, 

His  justice  and  love  of  truth, 

A7id  to  those  who  follow  after  him, — 

Jacobs,  Libby,  Routh; 

Men  who  live  for  others, — 

Not  for  themselves  alone, — 

Whose  lives  will  stand  the  test  of  time. 

And  the  light  of  the  judgment  throne. 

And  then  in  lighter  vein,_  we'll  toast 

Our  co-eds  sweet  and  fair. 

In  the  light  of  whose  smiles  full  nuiny  a  may 

Has  called  a  triangle  a  square, 

'Fore  teachers,  stern  and  critical, 

Im,mune  to  charms  like  these; 

But  were  they  really? — We  have  doubts 

But  just  forget   it, — please. 

Come  closer  lads,  let  us  drink  today 

To  the  class  of  '29; 

Who  can  tell  what  the  future  holds? 

Or  the  gift  of  fate  divine? 

Whatever  may  be,  we  will  stand  like  men, 

Our  goal  shall  be  high  and  true. 

Let  us  drink  to  the  class  of  '29 — 

Those  who  shall  dare  and  do.

The  Good  Fight 

By  Jean  Nutting 

The  spirit  of  mortal  can  justly  be  proud, 

It  has  climbed  from  the  depths;  it  has  challenged  the  cloud. 
With  vision  and   courage,  man's  strength  has  essayed 

To  wage  the  good  fight,  soul-free,  unafraid. 

The  body  will  falter,  the  life-spark  will  wane 

But  accomplishment  lives;  man  dies  not  in  vain. 

The  work  he  has  built,  the  good  he  has  done. 

Lives  on  though  the  body  has  withered  and  gone. 

Oh,  why  should  the  spectre  of  death  sear  his  soul? 

God's  still  in  his  heaven;   God's  throne  is  his  goal. 
From  the  plain  to  the  mountain,  man's  footsteps  have  trod. 

From  the  slough  of  despair  to  the  heights,  which  is  God.

Class  History" 


By  Robert  M.  Benson 


^t^  Of  one  hundred  and  twenty-three  freshmen  who  en- 

bIt      \         tered  in  1926,  only  thirty-two  remain.    As  Hannibal's  men 

^^^  fell  by  the  wayside  in  crossing  the  Alps,  so  members  of 

Sjpr  our  class  have  fallen  in  the  struggle  of  three  years  of  col- 

,^^%^        lege.      We,  who  have  survived  the  struggle,  are  proud  as 

^^^^t^^k    we  are  a  chosen  few  and  so,  with  our  heads  held  high, 

^^^^H^^A  we  are  marching  onward  toward  our  goal.      Spiritually, 

^^^^^^^*  mentally,   and   physically,   we   have   progi-essed   since   we 

iirst  entered  Oglethorpe — now  we  are  Juniors. 

Let  us  stop  and  take  a  retrospective  view  of  our  achievements  since 
we  first  came.  As  a  class  we  have  always  taken  the  initiative  and  as  Soph- 
omores we  abolished  the  time-worn  tradition  of  cutting  hair. 

In  athletics  we  played  a  leading  role.  On  the  1928  football  squad  we 
were  represented  by  Amos  Martin,  Harold  Coffee,  Charles  MacLaughlin, 
Asa  Wall,  Harry  Feinberg,  Curry  Burford,  Hoke  Bell;  Lyman  Fox,  "Cy" 
Bell  and  Charles  Aldridge.  In  1927  we  produced  eight  letter  men  and 
in  1926  nineteen  of  our  men  made  numerals.  For  the  past  two  years  we 
have  had  three  men  on  the  track  team,  Blanford  Eubanks,  Fred  Snook 
and  Lyman  Fox.  On  the  basketball  team  we  have  Charles  MacLaughlin, 
Harry  Feinberg,  "Cy"  Bell  and  Blanford  Eubanks,  while  in  baseball  we  are 
represented  by  Asa  Wall  and  Amos  Martin. 

As  individuals  make  the  history  of  a  class  it  is  only  fair  that  a  few 
outstanding  members  be  named  here.  First  on  the  roll  is  Bryant  Arnold, 
master  debater,  editor-in-chief  of  the  Stormy  Petrel  and  president  of  the 
class.  Next  is  "Banty"  Eubanks,  our  song-bird,  who  has  gone  down  in 
Petrel  History  as  one  of  the  most  versatile  track  devotees  in  the  history 
of  the  school.  Then  there  is  Vivian  McGowan,  representative  in  the  or- 
chestra; Fred  Snook,  advertising  manager  of  the  school  publication,  and 
"Cy"  Bell,  noted  football  star.  Those  foremost  in  scholarship  and  win- 
ners of  the  coat-of-arms  sweater  are  Harold  Coffee,  Eolise  Tanksley  and 
William  Powell. 

Now,  as  we  are  approaching  our  Senior  year,  we  can  only  say  that  if 
the  past  is  a  key  to  the  future  then  great  things  may  be  expected  of  the 
class  of  1930.

All  the  best  in  us  has  been  used 

To  make  our  future  bright. 

Some  times  we  thought  the  traveling  bad, 

The   mountains   high;    Sharp    stones   bruised 

Our  pride,   'till  never  was  as  sad 

A  plight  as  some  who  lost  the  way 

And  wandered  through  the  night. 

Now  we  stand  on  level  ground;   See 

Our  stock  rise  with  the  sun?      'Tween  you  and  me' 

For  three  long  years  we've  stood  the  test, 

I  think  we've  done   our  level   best.

Class  History" 

By  John  Turk 

As  the  fleeting  years  ripple  by  there  comes,  to  every 
striving,  wide-awake  institution,  changes  of  numerous 
and  various  sorts.  So  to  what  justification  have  we  for 
the  sweeping  assertion  that  Oglethorpe  in  all  its  forms — 
be  it  mental,  moral  or  spiritual — is  constantly  changing, 
shaping  and  mounting  to  a  higher  peak  of  success. 


Retrogarding  into  the  clear  and  unforgotten  pass, 
we  see  ourselves  as  Freshmen — dumb,  humble  and  unsophisticated.  But, 
regardless,  that  year  was  a  lesson  to  all  of  us  and  it  will  never  be  foi-got- 
ten.  One  hundred  and  eighty-two  strong,  hailing  from  the  wide  open 
spaces,  we  came  to  drink  of  the  fountain  of  knowledge,  many  drank, 
others  sipped,  few  inhaled,  and  those  who  refused  were  disposed  of.  Un- 
fortunately about  sixty-seven  of  our  Freshman  brothers  and  sisters  failed 
to  return — this  gap  was  somewhat  filled  by  the  appearance  of  about  fifteen 
new  Sophomores.  Among  them  were  Byrd,  Dennis,  Jackson,  Whitaker, 
Hawley  and  others. 

In  the  field  of  athletics  our  class  has  indeed,  furnished  many  valu- 
able men,  namely:  Herrin,  Fulton,  Riddle,  Therrell,  Holcomb,  Kimbrell, 
Golden,  Rabon,  Church,  Adams,  Woodward,  Brooks,  Everett,  Emerson, 
and  a  score  of  others. 

Looking  here  and  there  we  find  that  the  Sophomores  prove  to  be  an 
important  factor  in  every  branch  of  activities  offered  at  Oglethorpe.  Thus 
in  this  class  we  find  much  talent  and  a  glorious  future. 

By  means  of  a  talk  given  to  the  class  by  Dr.  J.  F.  Sellers,  whom  all  of 
us  admire,  the  class  held  a  meeting,  headed  by  President  Bridges,  and 
concluded  that  hazing  and  the  cutting  of  hair  should  be  abolished — thus 
another  step  was  taken  in  the  making  of  a  greater  and  nobler  institution, 
by  the  abolition  of  the  fear  and  distractions  of  hazing. 


^ 


Terminating  towards  the  golden  fleece  we  struggle  and  look  forward 
to  the  time  when  we  shall  be  initiated  into  a  new  era  of  life.  The  wolf 
stands  at  the  gate  awaiting  our  arrival,  the  time  is  two  years.

By  Ollie  Nall 

"Freshman,  grab  your  ankles!" 
"Freshmen  will  remain  in  dining  hall!" 


Such  were  the  stern  commands  heard  by  one  hundred 
and  eighty-two  bewildered  freshmen  on  the  morning  of 
September  23.  Like  all  freshmen  have  been  and  always 
will  be,  we  resented  the  lower  station  in  life  because  it  was 
a  tremendous  setback — from  a  lorded  Senior  in  high  school, 
accustomed  to  an  upper-hand,  to  a  lowly  freshman  who 
must  serve  superiors!     However,  the  resentment  was  short-lived. 

We  soon  realized  our  importance  for  our  big  brothers  had  gone  to  the 
trouble  to  map  out  a  definite  program.  First,  traditions  were  impressed 
such  as  the  learning  of  songs  and  yells,  smoking  of  corn  pipes,  last,  but 
not  least,  forbidden  to  "check"  with  the  fair  Co-eds.  This  restriction  was 
immediately  neglected.  But  the  violation  did  not  help  our  standing  with 
the  Sophs,  or  for  that  matter,  the  other  side  of  our  laps,  either. 

Our  first  class  meeting  was  held  in  the  auditorium  and  the  following 
ofiicers  were  elected :  President,  Harry  Emanuel ;  Vice-President,  Charles 
Gardner;  Secretary  and  Treasurer,  Jeff  McMillan;  Student  Council  Repre- 
sentative, Edward  Durst. 

And  then  came  the  Freshman  minstrel !  The  black  faces  amused  the 
student  body  for  more  than  an  hour  and  in  fine  fashion,  too.  Julian 
Stoval  acted  as  interlocutor  while  Whiteside,  Luther,  Mincey  and  Taylor 
carried  away  honors  as  end  men. 

The  class  was  well  represented  in  the  orchestra  with  three  mem- 
bers, namely:  Charles  Bourne  and  Jeff  McMillan,  saxophones  and  Ollie 
Nail,  trumpet. 

In  athletics  we  made  a  good  showing.  The  teams  of  the  three  major 
sports  should  furnish  excellent  material  to  the  varsity  squads  of  the  com- 
ing school  year.  The  freshman  teams  certainly  stepped  about  and  carried 
away  many  victories. 

We  are  proud  of  Oglethorpe  and  expect  to  help  in  making  it  the  great- 
est college  in  the  South,  yea,  even  in  the  whole  wide  world,  and  we  are 
going  to  drive  into  the  "rats"  of  next  year  that  grand  old  Petrel  spirit  so 
that  they,  too,  will  help  to  carry  on  this  institution.  But  let  us  add  these 
few  words  of  warning  to  the  Class  of  '33: 

"Beware,  you  freshmen,  for  revenge  is  sweet!"

Class  Poem 


By  Reavis  C.  O'Neal 

On   dances  now  our  boat  of  life  to  sunset, 
A-gliding  down  the  sparkling  sea  of  learning. 
Full  nine  months  past,  our  sea       .       .       .a  rivulet, 
And  we  midshipmen,  eager,  young,  and  yearning. 

But  blazoned  now  on  each  one's  shield  a  token 
Of  time  and  hours  passed  in  servitude. 
Of  tight  sealed  lips,  no  single  word  outspoken 
To  break  the  enforced  calm  of  solitude. 

What  lies  around  yon  greening  bend,  sweet  comrades? 
Who  knows  what  distant  fate   God  holds  in  store? 
Make  each  wave  from  the  prow  of  our  frail  vessel 
Twicefold  do  good   before  it  strikes  the  shore. 

Henceforth,  with  chains  of  slavery  cast  aside. 
We  walk  upright  in  brightness  of  the  sun, 
That  safe  in  harbor  we  may  point  with  pride 
To  tasks  complete  and  know  they  were  well  done. 

Again,  what  lies   beyond   the   nearing  bend,   my  fellows? 
Bring  forth  red  wine  and  freely  let  it  run. 
Who  knows  what  brings  today  or  holds  tomorrow. 
As  arrow-like  we  sail  to  rays  of  sinking  sun?

Anent  The  Seminary^ 

AT  the  beginning  of  the  school  year  of  1928  the  Atlanta  Theological 
Seminary  group  came  to  the  campus  of  the  University  to  continue  its 
work  during  the  transition  of  the  school  to  Elon  College  with  which 
institution  it  will  affiliate  in  1929. 

The  Seminary  was  organized  in  1901  with  a  small  body  of  students. 
Its  home  was  a  farm  house  on  the  site  purchased  for  the  campus,  1032 
Stewart  Avenue,  Atlanta.  The  student  body  continued  to  grow  until  the 
war  called  young  men  from  all  seminaries  and  colleges.  The  program 
has  so  enlarged  in  present  years  that  it  was  necessary  to  affiliate  with  a 
college  in  order  to  carry  on  in  a  more  efficient  manner. 

It  is  Congregational  in  denomination  but  is  non-sectarian  in  its  teach- 
ing and  has  always  opened  its  doors  to  students  of  all  denominations.  Dur- 
ing its  existence,  the  Seminary  has  sent  men  to  the  pulpits  of  Methodist, 
Baptist,  Presbyterian,  Evangelical,  Christian  and  Holiness  churches  as 
well  as  its  own  Congregational  churches. 

As  the  course  of  study  will  suggest,  it  is  the  aim  of  the  Seminary  to 
meet  the  widest  possible  needs  of  men  and  women  preparing  for  the  min- 
istry and  other  forms  of  Christian  service.  The  Seminary  recognizes  the 
new  day  that  calls  for  trained  religious  leadership  of  many  kinds.  By 
its  charter  and  its  purpose  it  is  free  to  meet  changing  conditions  in  the  life 
about  it. 

The  student  body  of  Oglethorpe  has  made  many  friends  among  the 
young  theologians  and  it  is  with  regret  that  we  see  the  Seminary  move 
lo  Elon  College.

Extension  Classes 

THROUGH  the  untiring  efforts  of  Dr.  Herman  J.  Gaertner,  who  ably 
assisted  in  the  resurrection  of  Oglethorpe,  the  extension  classes  of 
the  University  became  a  reality  three  years  ago  and  since  the  organi- 
zation has  been  on  a  rapid  increase. 

For  the  school  year  of  1928  more  than  seventy-five  enrolled  for  the 
extension  work  leading  to  degrees  of  Master  of  Arts,  Bachelor  of  Arts  or 
work  in  the  School  of  education. 

In  order  to  make  it  more  convenient  for  the  students,  a  number  of 
whom  are  teachers  in  the  Atlanta  Public  School  system,  a  majority  of  the 
classes  are  held  in  Atlanta.  Classes  in  French,  Biology,  Chemistry  and 
English  are  held  on  the  campus  on  Saturdays. 

The  overwhelming  success  and  the  encouraging  results  of  the  exten- 
sion classes  in  the  past  has  become  an  incentive  and  officials  are  centering 
their  attention  to  that  phase  of  work.

FRANK    [i.    ANDERSON,    Athletic    Director 

"The  Daddy  of  Oglethorpe  Athletics!"  Thai's  the  sobriquet 
he  earned  seven  years  ago  and  it  still  breathes.  He  has  seen  Ogle- 
thorpe athletics  at  its  worst  and  at  its  best  and  there  cannot  be  too 
much  praise  for  his  conscientious  endeavors.

NORTH  GEORGIA  AGGIE  GAME 

Thanksgiving  marked  the  end  of  a  rather  hectic  and  rather  unsuccessful  grid- 
iron campaign  for  the  Petrels  of  1928.  The  only  high  spot  in  the  entire  season  was 
the  licking  handed  our  ancient  and  time-honored  rivals, — the  Mercer  Bears  in  Macon. 

Coach  Robertson's  lads  flashed  a  most  brilliant  offense  in  whipping  the  North 
Georgia  Aggies  in  the  curtain-raiser  on  the  campus 
70  to  0. 

Those  who  knew  and  a  great  number  of  those  who 
did  not  know,  predicted  a  great  season  for  Oglethorpe 
right  at  the  start  on  the  strength  of  the  showing  made 
against  Adrian  Maurer's  out-fit. 

Coach  Robertson  started  his  second  stringers 
against  the  boys  from  Dahlonega  and  although  they 
were  only  scrubs  they  accounted  for  four  touchdowns 
ere  the  regulars  relieved  them  at  the  close  of  the  first 
period.  The  remainder  of  the  game  was  nothing  short 
of  a  track  meet  with  the  two  scions  of  speed,  "Cy" 
Bell  and  Lyman  Fox,  running  wild.  These  two  aces 
were  ably  assisted,  however,  in  the  ball  toting  de- 
partment by  Amos  Martin  and  Clau^  Herrin.

HIGH  POINT  COLLEGE 

The  following  Saturday  the  Petrels  experienced  no  real  difficulty  in  subduing  the 
purple-clad  warriors  of  High  Point  College  33  to  0  in  Asheville,  North  Carolina. 

Once  again  the  Oglethorpe  offense  was  unstopped  and,  except  for  two  or  three 
costly  fumbles  when  touchdowns  were  inevitable,  the  score  would  have  been  much 
larger.  Claud  Herrin  broke  into  the  limelight  during  this  game  when  he  replaced 
"Cy"  Bell  in  the  second  half  and  immediately  proceeded  to  gallop  for  a  touchdown. 

Lyman  Fox  and  "Cy"  Bell  were  once  more  shining  lights  in  the  offensive  play 
while  a  sophomore  by  the  name  of  McKissick  was  a  tower  of  strength  on  the  defense, 
backing  up  the  line  in  a  most  satisfactory  manner.

LOYOLA  UNIVERSITY 

The  Loyola  Wolfpack,  fresh  from  a  near-victory  over  the  famous  Notre  Dame 
"Irishmen,"  blew  into  Atlanta  with  one  of  the  most  powerful  offenses  ever  seen  at 
Spiller  Field.  When  the  smoke  of  battle  had  cleared  Oglethorpe  was  found  to  be 
on  the  short  end  of  a  33  to  6  score.  The  "Dixie  Flyer,"  who  in  private  life  is  known 
as  "Bucky"  More,  was  the  ace  in  the  hole  for  the  lads  from  New  Orleans.  This  in- 
dividual had  scored  two  touchdowns  before  the  game  was  ten  minutes  old. 

After  the  devastating  first  quarter  things  began  to  look  a  little  more  encouraging 
for  Coach  Robertson's  men.  Herrin  scored  Oglethorpe's  lone  touchdown  after  a  nice 
gallop  of  some  30  or  more  yards  late  in  the  third  period.  The  work  of  Fox,  Bell, 
Herrin  and  McKissick  stood  out  in  the  back-field  while  Sims,  Fulton  and  Clement 
were  potent  factors  in  the  showing  of  the  line.

ST.  XAVIER  COLLEGE 

Saturday,  October  20,  found  the  Petrels  doing  battle  with  the  St.  Xavier  Musket- 
eers in  Cincinnati,  Ohio.  Fumbles  on  the  part  of  Oglethorpe  proved  fatal  and  the 
Birds  were  forced  to  bow  to  the  enemy  9  to  6. 

Successive  fumbles  in  the  backfield  stopped  two  nice  Oglethorpe  drives  goalward 
in  the  first  period.  The  first  quarter  was  rather  dull  and  uneventful  save  for  the 
exhibition  of  fumbling  that  was  put  on  by  the  Petrel  backs.  The  second  quarter, 
however,  opened  with  a  bang  when  St.  Xavier  recovered  another  Oglethorpe  fumble 
in  mid-field  and  on  two  plays  were  on  the  Birds'  5  yard  line.  On  the  next  play  the 
Ohio  lads  took  the  lead  7  to  0.  Oglethorpe,  undaunted  by  this  twist  of  fate,  pro- 
ceeded to  work  the  ball  down  the  field  when  Fox  returned  a  punt  30  yards  before 
being  brought  to  earth.  On  a  pretty  25-yard  pass  flipped  by  Herrin  to  Fox  the  lat- 
ter raced  the  remaining  35  yards  for  a  touchdown.  A  beautiful  rally  in  the  closing 
minutes  of  the  last  period  brought  the  fans  to  their  feet.  This  drive  started  from 
Oglethorpe's  own  20-yard  line  when  "Cy"  Bell  passed  to  Herrin  for  12  yards  follow- 
ed by  two  nice  passes  from  the  hands  of  Herrin,  one  an  8-yard  heave  to  "Cy"  Bell, 
and  the  other  a  15-yard  toss  to  Wall. 


By  grabbing  a  punt  and  dashing  64  yards  through  the  entire  Maryville  team  with 
but  one  minute  left  to  play,  "Cy"  Bell  saved  his  mates  from  defeat,  the  game  ending 
to  6  tie. 

Just  why  Oglethorpe  couldn't  hand  a  decisive  licking  to  the  Maryville  High- 
landers is  not  known  unless,  perhaps,  the  game  with  Georgia  Tech  slated  for  the 
next  Saturday  was  uppermost  in  their  minds.  Anyway  it  was  the  great  work  of 
"Cy"  Bell  that  saved  the  day.  The  Petrels  seemed  to  be  able  to  gain  at  will  until 
a  certain  point  had  been  reached  near  the  Maryville  goal  line  and  there  the  advance 
usually  stopped.  Claud  Herrin  and  Amos  Martin  romped  up  and  down  the  field 
like  a  pair  of  young  colts  while  Jenny  Woodward  was  a  regular  wheelhorse.  "Cy" 
Bell  of  course  accounted  for  his  usual  number  of  good  runs  even  had  he  not  returned 
that  punt  for  60  odd  yards.  Burford,  Clement,  Sims,  Fulton  and  Coffee  were  out- 
standing in  the  line.

GEORGIA  TECH 

The  Oglethorpe-Tech  game  ran  true  to  form  with  the  Petrels  holding  the  nation- 
al champions  to  two  lone  touchdowns  for  three  long  quarters  only  to  have  Tech's  su- 
perior reserve  material  run  rough-shod  over  them  during  the  last  period  to  win,  33-7. 

The  Petrels,  as  has  been  the  case  for  the  past  three  years,  were  leading  the  Yel- 
low Jackets  at  the  half,  7  to  6  and  it  was  not  until  late  in  the  third  quarter  that  Tech 
was  able  to  take  the  lead  13  to  7.  Coach  Robertson's  lads  have  the  distinction  of  be- 
ing the  first  team  to  actually  earn  a  touchdown  against  the  Golden  Tornado  last  year. 
Oglethorpe's  score  came  in  the  latter  part  of  the  second  period  when  several  wall 
directed  plays  and  two  forward  passes  turned  the  trick.  The  touchdown  was  made 
on  a  line-buck  right  through  Tech's  million  dollar  line  for  three  yards  with  Herrin 
carrying  the  ball.  It  was  "Cy"  Bell,  however,  who  carried  the  ball  to  the  three 
yard  marker  on  a  pretty  pass  thrown  by  Herrin. 

Jake  Malsby  at  center  played  the  best  game  of  his  career  stopping  Tech  plays 
time  and  again  before  they  started.  Jimmie  Sims  played  his  usual  good  game  at 
tackle  as  did  "Curley"  Fulton  at  guard.  "Monk"  Clement  proved  himself  to  be  a 
really  great  end  by  stopping  the  famous  end  runs  of  Tech's  Ail-American  half-back, 
Mizell.  In  the  back-field  the  work  of  Fox,  Herrin,  Woodward  and  Bell  was  outstand- 
ing. 


^immjiG^cnm^ 


MERCER  UNIVERSITY 

The  one  bright  spot  during  an  otherwise  gloomy  season  was  the  way  Oglethorpe 
spanked  Mercer  down  in  Macon  on  Armistice  Day  15  to  0.  The  score  does  not  indi- 
cate the  complete  whipping  that  the  Bears  were  forced  to  take  at  the  hands  of  their 
bitterest  rivals. 

Oglethorpe  jumped  into  the  lead  in  the  first  few  minutes  of  play  when  Mercer 
fumbled  on  their  own  40  yard  line  and  Asa  Wall  broke  through,  scooped  up  the  ball 
and  lumbered  down  the  field  for  a  touchdown.  Burford,  Coffee,  Clement,  Sims  and 
Malsby  played  exceptionally  fine  football  in  the  line  while  the  old  faithful  trio  of  ball- 
toters,  Bell,  Herrin  and  Martin  were  the  offensive  heroes.  Martin  particularly  was 
right  and  it  was  through  his  efforts  that  much  of  the  yardage  was  gained.  His 
kicking,  too,  was  far  above  the  average.  Charlie  McKissick  was  a  terror  to  the 
Bears  when  on  defense  backing  up  the  line  like  a  veteran  rather  than  a  green  sopho- 
more.

PRESBYTERIAN  COLLEGE 

Oglethorpe,  in  an  attempt  to  play  two  games  in  one  week,  suflfered  from  the  ef- 
fects of  over-work  and  dropped  a  hard  fought  game  to  Presbyterian  College  7  to  6, 
on  Friday,  November  16.  The  victory  over  Mercer  the  preceding  Monday  seemed 
to  have  sapped  the  strength  of  the  Petrels  to  such  an  extent  that  they  were  not  able 
to  make  any  marked  headway  against  the  stubborn  defense  that  Presbyterian  present- 
ed that  day. 

Oglethorpe's  score  came  early  in  the  first  period  when  Jake  Malsby  intercepted 
an  enemy  pass  and  raced  45  yards  to  a  touchdown.  The  failure  to  kick  the  goal  cost 
Oglethorpe  the  game.  The  Petrels,  however,  maintained  this  six  point  lead  until  the 
final  period  when  a  sustained  attack  netted  the  Presbyterians  a  touchdown,  the  extra 
point  giving  them  the  struggle. 


:<:iiaamcBaM> 


CHATTANOOGA  UNIVERSITY 

The  Petrels  once  more  figured  in  one  of  the  most  heart  breaking  losses  on  record 
when  they  were  forced  to  take  the  count  up  in  Chattanooga  on  Thanksgiving  34  to  19. 
Oglethorpe  started  off  with  a  rush  when  on  line  plays  and  end  runs  they  placed  the 
ball  on  'Nooga's  two  yard  line  right  after  the  kick-off  only  to  have  the  chance  to  score 
again  taken  away  by  a  fumble.  And  so  the  ball  see-sawed  back  and  forth  during 
the  entire  first  period  and  most  of  the  second.  It  wasn't  until  late  in  the  second 
quarter  that  the  Birds  were  able  to  push  a  touchdown  across  when  Jenny  Woodward, 
after  a  series  of  bull-like  rushes  at  the  line,  crossed  the  final  white  line  to  tie  the 
score  7  to  7.  With  a  scant  45  seconds  left  in  the  first  half,  Chattanooga  heaved  a  long 
pass  that  was  good  for  a  touchdown. 

Oglethorpe  came  back  in  the  second  half  and  scored  two  touchdowns  before  the 
lialf  was  eight  minutes  old.  Oglethorpe  held  this  advantage  up  until  the  last  ten  min- 
utes of  the  game  when  an  intercepted  pass  thrown  by  Herrin  started  the  Moccasins 
on  a  scoring  spree  that  put  the  game  on  ice  for  Chattanooga. 

The  playing  of  Sims  in  this  game  earned  for  him  a  place  on  the  All-S.  I.  A.  A. 
aggregation.  Once  more  Jeff  Burford  stood  out  in  the  line  as  a  guard  of  no  mean 
ability.  Woodward,  Herrin  and  "Cy"  Bell  did  most  of  the  ball  carrying  for  the  Birds 
and  did  it  well.  Had  Herrin  not  been  hurt  in  the  first  half  things  might  have  been 
different  at  the  end.

Basketball  1929 

r-|-rHE  basketball  season  of  1929  could  not  be  termed  successful  by  even  the  most 
I  enthusiastic  Petrel  supporters.  Only  twelve  games  were  played  by  Coach  Rob- 
^    ertson's  men  and  of  that  number  the  Birds  were  able  to  win  only  three. 

Shortly  after  the  Christmas  holidays,  with  only  five  practices  under  their  belts, 
Oglethorpe  trotted  down  to  the  Atlanta  Athletic  Club  to  engage  those  individuals  on 
the  hardwood.  During  the  first  half  the  A.  A.  C.  lads  were  given  the  scare  of  their 
young  lives  when  Harry  Feinberg  and  Claud  Herrin  rained  in  shots  from  all  angles 
of  the  floor.  The  guarding  of  Clement  and  Bell  held  the  Clubbers  mighty  close,  too, 
making  scoring  almost  impossible.  The  score  at  half  time  found  the  A.  A.  C.  just 
two  points  ahead — 17  to  1.5.  Pat  Stephens  and  Company,  however,  came  back  with 
a  vengeance  during  the  second  half  snowing  the  Petrels  under,  the  final  score  being 
58-30.      Harry  Feinberg  was  high  point  man  for  Oglethorpe. 

Oglethorpe  had  a  little  better  luck  in  the  next  game  with  Joe  Hutson's  North 
Georgia  Aggies  in  Dahlonega  when  Claud  Herrin  found  himself  and  looped  the  ball 
through  the  basket  for  a  total  of  27  points.  The  game  was  hard  fought  most  of  the 
way  and  it  wasn't  until  the  closing  minutes  of  play  that  the  Birds  were  able  to  pile 
up  a  lead  that  assured  victory.  "Kid"  Golden,  substituting  for  Feinberg,  was  second 
high  point  man  for  the  day  with  10  points. 

The  following  week  our  Petrels  invaded  the  lair  of  the  Mercer  Bears  and  came 
out  on  the  short  end  of  a  41  to  33  score.  This  game  between  these  two  bitter  riv- 
als was  a  battle  royal  from  start  to  finish  and  it  was  not  until  the  final  whistle  that 
Coach  Robertson's  boys  were  forced  to  bow  in  humble  submission.      Herrin  was  once

again  the  high  scorer  for  the  night  with  17  points 
to  his  credit.  The  defensive  play  of  Clement,  Bell 
and  Therrel  kept  Mercer  from  piling  the  score. 

Oglethorpe  dropped  two  more  games  in  as  many 
nights  on  a  trip  to  the  southwestern  part  of  the 
state.  Columbus  "Y"  headed  by  Jack  Massey, 
barely  nosed  the  Birds  out  47  to  45  in  the  first 
of  the  series  and  the  soldiers  of  Ft.  Benning  won 
the  second  35  to  26.  The  loss  of  Clement  may 
have  had  something  to  do  with  the  reversals. 
Ilerrin  far  outdistanced  the  field  in  the  first  of 
these  games 
when  he  turned 
in  22  points  for 
his  share  of  the 
evening's  work. 
Riddle  was  sec- 
ond to  Herrin 
with  8  points 
while  Goldin  was 
third  with  7 
points  to  his 
credit.  In  the 
game  with  Uncle 
Sam's  guardians, 
Herrin  garnered 
16  points  to  step 
out  in  front  once 
more.  Therrell's 
guarding  was  an 
added  feature  of 
this  scrap,  hold- 
ing the  soldier 
star  All-Anieri- 
c  a  n  forward, 
Johnny  Re 
to    6    points. 


HARRY  PEINBERG 
Forward 


Oglethorpe  broke  the  losing  streak  by  nosing 
out  the  fast  Jewish  Progressive  Club  quintet  ir. 
Atlanta  28  to  25  in  one  of  the  fastest  games  the 
Birds  engaged  in  all  year.  "Monk"  Clement  car- 
ried off  the  scoring  honors  in  this  game  with  9 
points  while  Feinberg  was  a  close  second  with 
7  markers.  Bell  played  a  beautiful  floor  game, 
taking  the  ball  up  the  floor  on  numerous  occasions 
from  under  his  own  basket  to  put  it  in  a  scoring 
position.

The  next  game  was  dropped  to  Chattanooga 
after  the  Petrels  had  held  a  substantial  lead 
throughout  most  of  the  first  half.  The  'Noogans 
put  on  a  second  half  rally  that  quickly  erased  the 
lead  held  by  Oglethorpe.  The  final  score  was 
3.3  to  20. 

It  required  an  extra  five  minute  period  for  Mer- 
cer to  win  their  return  game  in  Atlanta  the  score 
being  dead-locked  30  to  30  at  the  end  of  the  regular 
playing  time.  During  the  extra  period  Mercer 
sank  three  long  shots  while  the  best  the  Petrels 
could  do  was  to 
get  one  and  so 
once  more  Mer- 
cer forced  the 
Birds  into  sub- 
mission. Her- 
rin  with  14 
points  and  Fein- 
berg  with  8  led 
the  attack  for 
Oglethorpe. 

The  return 
game  with  J.  P. 
C.  was  a  rough 
and  tumble  af- 
fair with  the 
clubbers  getting 
revenge  for  the 
licking  handed 
them  earlier  in 
the  season.  The 
Birds  were  ten 
points  behind  at 
half  time  and 
from  then  on 
they  dropped 
farther  and  farther  back,  the  final  score  being  55 
to  39.  Herrin,  who  had  been  badly  off  form  in 
the  last  few  games,  seemed  to  come  to  life  and  drop- 
ped a  total  of  20  points  through  the  mesh.  Once 
again  the  floor  work  of  "Cy"  Bell  was  outstanding. 

The  North  Georgia  Aggies  were  again  conquer- 
ed this  time  by  a  much  smaller  score  than  the  first. 
Herrin  and  Bell  were  the  big  guns  in  the  44  to  40 
win,  the  former  getting  16  points  while  the  latter 
amassed  a  total  of  12.

Chattanooga  came  to  Oglethorpe  all  set  to  make 
it  two  in  a  row  over  the  Petrels  and  after  a  decid- 
edly close  game  they  succeeded  in  accomplishing 
their   purpose.      The   score   was   27   to   22. 

In  the  grand  finale  Coach  Joe  Bean's  A.  A.  C. 
wonder  boys  handed  Oglethorpe  a  neat  lacing,  51 
to  16.  There  wasn't  anything  outstanding  in  this 
game  unless  it  was  the  regularity  with  which 
Herrin  and  Feinberg  missed  shot  after  shot  at  the 
basket.  Bell,  Therrell  and  Clement  played  their 
usual  good  defensive  game  although  the  score 
wouldn't  indicate 
that  the  Petrels 
even  had  any 
guards  in  the 
game. 

Basket  ball  at 
Oglethorpe  has 
never  been  a 
howling  success 
from  the  very 
first  year  which 
was  in  1926  up 
until  now.  Al- 
though the  Pet- 
rels have  played 
some  mighty 
fine  games  on 
the  court  at 
times  they  have 
never  approach- 
ed the  records 
made  in  t  h  e 
other  sports  on 
the    campus. 


LYLE  KRATZ 
Guard 


The  Fresh- 
man team  of  1926  whipped  everything  in  this  part 
of  the  south  and  were  counted  upon  heavily  to 
make  basketball  history  before  their  life  at  Ogle- 
thorpe was  ended.  "Monk"  Clement  and  "Cy" 
Bell  were  the  only  ones  of  that  Frosh  squad  to  play 
three  years  of  varsity  basketball,  the  rest  having 
dropped  out  of  school  one  by  one  as  the  years  roll- 
ed by.  The  prospects  for  next  year's  team  are 
the  best  that  they  have  been  since  1926  and  it  is 
hoped  that  the  jinx  which  has  followed  the  Petrels 
se  doggedly  for  the  past  four  years  can  be  shaken

Claud  Herrin,  the  star  of  this  year's  quint, 
still  has  two  more  years  to  go  and  should  this 
blonde  gentleman  show  as  much  form  in  1930  as  he 
did  this  past  year  he  will  rank  with  the  best  basket 
bailers  in  the  south.  The  task  of  filling  the  shoes 
of  "Monk"  Clement  next  year  is  not  going  to  be  an 
easy  task  for  Clem  has  been  an  outstanding  per- 
former for  the  past  three  years,  captaining  the 
team  in  his  sophomore  year.  Harry  Feinberg  did 
not  have  as  successful  a  year  on  the  hardwood  in 
1929  as  he  did  the  year  before  but  at  that  he  made 
a  very  capable 
running  mate 
for  Herrin  at 
forward.  "Irish" 
turned  in  some 
pretty  nice 
games  during 
the  early  part  of 
the  year,  espec- 
ially in  the  sea- 
sons' opener  with 
the  A.  A.  C.  out- 
fit. "Mutt"  Rid- 
dle played  the 
role  of  chief  sub- 
stitute to  both 
Herrin  and  Fein- 
berg and  played 
it  in  a  most 
satisfactory  and 
pleasing  man- 
ner. More  will 
be  heard  from 
this  individ- 
ual ere  his  days 
as  a  Petrel  are 
over.  "Cy"  Bell  played  better  basket  ball  this 
year  than  at  any  other  time  during  his  career.  His 
floor  work  was  of  the  highest  order  and  it  was 
through  his  efforts  principally  that  the  rest  of  the 
club  were  able  to  score  for  "Cy"  had  a  knack  of 
taking  the  ball  off  the  enemies'  backboard  and 
working  it  up  the  floor. 

This  past  year  was  perhaps  the  most  disastrous 
season  that  Oglethorpe  has  had  since  the  begin- 
ning of  this  sport,  winning  only  three  games  out 
of  fourteen  played.

Oglethorpe  Begins   Grind 
for  Mercer  Tilt  Saturday 


t 


BASEBALL  at  Oglethorpe  during  the 
Spring  of  1928  was  considered  very  suc- 
cessful by  Virtue  of  vv'inning  more  col- 
lege games  than  lost.  The  Stormy  Petrels 
played  a  twenty-two  game  schedule,  eigh- 
teen of  which  were  with  college  teams  while 
the  other  four  were  with  professional  teams 
of  high  standing.  The  Birds  got  off  to  a 
bad  start  when  they  dropped  two  games  to 
the  Atlanta  Crackers  and  a  pair  to  the  Co- 
lumbus "Foxes"  within  five  days. 

In  the  first  college  tilt  Oglethorpe  was 
forced  to  bow  to  its  bitter  rival,  Georgia 
Tech,  on  two  occasions.  Coach  Anderson's 
lads  started  scoring  early  in  the  first  game 
holding  a  three  run  lead  up  until  the  eighth 
inning  when  Tech  came  from  behind  win- 
ning by  one  lone  run,  5  to  4.     Asa  Wall  hit 


Coach    Anderson 
and  Managtr  Thrash. 


timcnRG^^M% 


one  over  the  right  field  fence  with 
two  on  to  give  the  Birds  three  runs 
in  the  second  inning.  Lawson  pitch- 
ed nice  ball  all  the  way.  In  the  sec- 
ond game,  with  the  Techites  the 
same  situation  was  in  vogue  with  the 
Petrels  holding  what  looked  like  a 
comfortable  lead  only  to  have  it  wip- 
ed out  late  in  the  game  with  Tech 
once  more  winning  by  one  run,  11 
to  12.  Vaughn  was  right  but  no 
amount  of  masterly  pitching  could 
have  won  the  game  it  seems.  It 
just  wasn't  in  the  books  for  Ogle- 
thorpe to  win. 

The  next  two  games  on  the  base- 
ball menu  were  with  the  University 
of  Kentucky,  Oglethorpe  winning 
one  and  tying  the  other.  In  the  first 
game  the  Birds  won  handily  7  to  5 
and  were  in  a  fair  way  to  win  the 
second  with  a  two  run  lead  up  until 
the  first  of  the  ninth  when  Kentucky 
tied  it  up.  The  boys  from  the  Blue- 
grass  state  had  to  leave  to  catch  a 
train  with  the  score  still  knotted  at 
4  to  4. 

Things  began  to  look  bad  for 
Oglethorpe  once  again  when  on  a 
week's  trip  they  lost  four  straight, 
two  to  Furman  in  Greenville,  S.  C, 
and  two  to  Davidson  College  in  Con- 
cord, N.  C.  But  by  winning  the  last 
game  of  the  trip  from  Wofford  in 
Spartanburg,  the  Petrels  started  a 
winning  streak  which  carried  them 
through  eight  games  before  they 
were  again  toppled.  During  these 
eight  wins  the  Birds  amassed  a  total 


vfe 


uaamcHaMI 


of  88  runs  for  an  average  of  eleven 
runs  per  game.      Not  so  bad! 

The  Mercer  Bears  were  taken  in- 
to camp  on  three  occasions  during 
this  winning  reign  of  the  Peachtree 
Road  collegians  by  the  scores  of  11 
to  2,  14  to  8  and  7  to  6.  These 
wins  alone  would  have  given  Ogle- 
thorpe a  successful  season  in  view 
of  the  intense  spirit  that  exists  be- 
tween these  two  institutions.  In 
the  second  game  the  Birds  hit  safe- 
ly exactly  sixteen  times. 

Tennessee  was  the  Anderson- 
men's  next  victim,  falling  11  to  5 
and  21  to  8.  Vaughn  pitched  steady 
ball  in  the  first  game  giving  up  a 
total  of  ten  hits  but  keeping  them 
so  scattered  that  only  five  runs 
could  be  scored.  Taliaferro  furnish- 
ed the  big  thrill  of  the  afternoon 
when  he  smacked  one  out  of  the  lot 
in  the  first  inning.  Turner  and 
Laird  with  a  pair  of  hits  apiece  were 
the  heavy  stickers  for  the  Petrels. 
The  second  game,  with  big  Asa  Wall 
on  the  mound  at  the  start,  looked 
like  a  track  meet  for  Oglethorpe,  the 
final  score  being  21  to  8.  A  total 
of  18  errors  were  made  by  both 
teams,  Tennessee  holding  a  slight 
edge  with  10  mistakes  to  their  credit. 
In  the  eighth  inning  Taliaferro  and 
Joe  Hutson  got  two  hits  apiece  in 
one  inning,  which  was  a  rather  uni- 
que occurrence.  Martin,  Laird  and 
Thompson  were  the  big  guns  in  the 
Petrel  attack. 

Oglethorpe     jumped     on     three 


timmRG^nm^. 


Howard  pitchers  in  the  first  of  a  two 
game  series  for  a  grand  total  of  13 
hits  and  11  runs  while  the  Howard 
Bulldogs  had  to  be  content  with  7 
hits  and  4  runs.  Vaughn  and  Hut- 
son  did  the  pitching  for  the  Birds, 
going  5  and  4  innings  respectively. 
Besides  pitching  nice  ball  Vaughn 
also  added  his  share  in  a  hitting  way 
by  getting  a  triple  and  a  double  out 
of  four  trips  to  the  plate.  Brant 
Boswell  also  had  a  good  day  at  the 
bat  hammering  out  three  safe  hits 
out  of  five  times  at  bat.  The  sec- 
ond game  was  not  so  easy  for  the 
Petrels  to  tuck  away  and  it  was  not 
until  the  eighth  that  Oglethorpe  got 
a  one  run  lead,  finally  winning  5  to 
4.  Lawson  did  the  twirling,  pitch- 
ing almost  air-tight  ball  except  for 
one  bad  inning. 

In  the  last  two  games  of  the  sea- 
son with  Georgia  down  in  Athens 
the  Birds  ran  into  a  lot  of  grief. 
Vaughn  pitched  the  first  game  and 
was  going  good  until  the  umpire 
took  a  dislike  to  him  and  from  then 
on  they  had  to  be  right  down  the 
middle  before  said  Mr.  Umpire  would 
call  a  strike.  Just  as  soon  as  Lind- 
sey  shoved  his  slants  down  the 
groove  the  Georgia  Bulldogs  prompt- 
ly smacked  them  out  of  the  ball  park 
or  almost  out  of  the  park.  Anyway 
Bill  White's  lads  had  plenty  of  trou- 
ble winning  those  two  games  despite 
the  handicap  under  which  the  Pet- 
rels were  laboring.  The  first  one 
was  lost  by  a  one  run  margin  while 
the  second  went  down  on  the  records

10  to  7.  Lawson  pitched  the  sec- 
ond game  and  ran  into  almost  as 
much  trouble  with  decisions  as  did 
his  teammate  on  the  preceeding  day. 

Coach  Anderson  made  a  pretty 
smart  set  of  ball  players  out  of  the 
1928  aggregation  after  all.  The 
pitching  staff,  composed  of  Howard 
Lawson,  Lindsey  Vaughn  and  Joe 
Hutson,  with  Asa  Wall  pitching  a 
few  nice  games  on  the  side,  was 
mighty  effective.  The  infield  with 
Turner  on  first,  Boswell  on  second, 
Taliaferro  at  short  and  Martin  on 
third  was  all  that  could  be  asked  for. 
Laird,  York  and  Wall  did  their  share 
in  the  outfield. 

There  never  has  been  a  time, 
since  the  founding  of  Oglethorpe 
University,  that  Coach  Frank  Ander- 
son has  not  had  an  exceptionally  fine 
baseball  aggregation.  Present  indi- 
cations are  that  the  season  of  1929 
will  be  no  exception  to  the  prece- 
dent as  set  by  the  Petrels  in  years 
gone  by. 

As  we  go  to  press  Coach  Ander- 
son's clan  have  participated  in  four 
baseball  games,  two  with  the  Atlanta 
Crackers  and  two  with  our  ancient 
and  honorable  rivals — Georgia  Tech. 
In  the  series  with  Atlanta's  entry  in 
the  Southern  League,  the  Petrels 
were  forced  to  bow  to  their  superior 
and  more  experienced  professional 
rivals  in  the  first  game  but  came 
back  the  next  afternoon  with  a  ven- 
geance, defeating  the  pros  8  to  4. 
Friday   and    Saturday    of   the    same

week  Oglethorpe  and  Georgia  Tech 
played,  the  first  game  resulting  in 
an  8  to  8  tie,  play  being  called  at  the 
end  of  the  ninth  inning  because  of 
darkness.  Saturday  afternoon  the 
Petrels  played  brilliant  ball  to  defeat 
their  opponents  from  North  Avenue, 
5  to  4.  This  victory  over  Tech  help- 
ed to  salve  the  wounds  so  often  in- 
flicted on  Oglethorpe  on  the  gridiron. 

In  the  first  game  with  the  Crack- 
ers, Oglethorpe  stayed  in  the  lead  for 
the  greater  part  of  the  game  and  it 
was  only  a  belated  rally  in  the  eighth 
inning  that  gave  the  pros  the  win- 
ning runs.  Lindsey  Vaughn  pitched 
mighty  good  ball  all  the  way  and  had 
it  not  been  for  that  one  bad  inning, 
the  eighth,  the  chances  are  that  the 
Birds  would  have  made  it  two  over 
Atlanta.  Howard  Lawson  did  the 
twirling  in  the  second  game  display- 
ing the  same  brand  of  baseball  that 
Vaughn  did  the  preceeding  day. 
Oglethorpe  collected  a  total  of  28 
hits  in  the  two  games  with  Mr.  Spil- 
ler's  men,  17  of  which  were  gotten 
in  the  second  game. 

Once  more  Vaughn  did  mound 
duty  in  the  first  Tech  game  holding 
the  hard  hitting  Jackets  to  8  bingles 
while  his  mates  were  collecting  10  off 
the  deliveries  of  three  Tech  hurlers. 
Marion  Anderson  was  the  outstand- 
ing hero  of  this  first  game  when  he 
hit  a  home  run  with  a  man  on  first 
base.  This  circuit  drive  of  Ander- 
son's drove  in  the  tying  run,  his  own 
run  giving  the  Petrels  a  one  run  ad-

vantage.  Asa  Wall  also  got  a  four 
sacker  in  the  fourth  inning  which 
helped  very  materially  to  overcome 
the  four  run  lead  that  Tech  got  in  the 
second  inning. 

The  second  game  was  perhaps  the 
more  spectacular  of  the  two  for  it 
was  not  until  the  first  of  the  ninth 
that  Oglethorpe  gained  a  one  run  ad- 
vantage over  the  Jackets  which  prov- 
ed to  be  the  margin  of  victory.  Once 
again  it  was  Marion  Anderson  that 
drove  in  the  winning  run.  Howard 
Lawson  did  the  pitching  in  this  game 
holding  the  Techites'  hits  so  scatter- 
ed that  little  damage  was  done  until 
the  seventh  inning  when  three  men 
scored  on  two  hits  and  two  errors. 
Vaughn  relieved  Lawson  in  the  ninth 
and  it  was  through  his  own  efforts 
that  the  Petrels  were  able  to  win. 
With  one  out  and  a  man  on  second 
and  third  Vaughn  raced  clear  over 
to  the  third  base  line  to  spear  a  pop 
fly  which  looked  like  a  sure  hit  doub- 
ling the  man  on  third  base  to  end  the 
game. 

Oglethorpe's  infield  has  received 
a  great  deal  of  favorable  comment 
from  the  sport  writers  of  Atlanta 
during  these  early  season  games, 
most  of  them  going  so  far  as  to  say 
that  it  is  the  best  college  infield  in 
the  south.  The  infield  composed  of 
Holcomb  on  first;  Anderson  on  sec- 
ond; Martin  at  short  and  Herrin  on 
third,  functions  in  big  league  style. 
Coach  Anderson  has  a  wealth  of 
pitching  talent  in  Vaughn,  Lawson,

Byrd,  Rabon,  Golden,  Holcomb  and 
Wall.  The  outfield  has  been  chang- 
ed so  many  times  that  it  is  hard  to 
say  just  who  are  the  regulars.  Wall, 
Kimbrel,  Reynolds,  Riddle,  Holcomb 
and  McLaughlin  have  been  doing  the 
bulk  of  the  work  in  the  outer  garden 
so  far,  and  doing  it  well.  George 
Everett  has  been  alternating  with 
Holcomb  on  first  base  and  it  is  a  toss 
up  as  to  which  one  will  get  the  call 
legularly.  Behind  the  bat  we  find 
captain  "Wild  boy"  Thompson,  one 
of  the  finest  college  catchers  in  the 
south.  "Tommy"  has  been  showing 
a  world  of  stuff  so  far  this  year  and 
he  is  expected  to  go  even  better  as 
the  season  advances. 

The  Petrels  dropped  their  first 
college  game  of  1929  to  the  Univer- 
sity of  Tennessee  on  Hermance  Field 
9  to  7  after  leading  the  Volunteers 
for  seven  innings.  It  was'nt  until 
the  tenth  frame  that  Tennessee  was 
able  to  break  the  7-7  dead-lock  es- 
tablished in  the  eighth.  Vaughn,  on 
the  mound  for  the  Petrels,  gave  up 
14  hits  while  his  mates  were  only 
able  to  collect  9  safe  bingles  off  the 
delivery  of  Bridges.  Martin,  An- 
derson and  Holcomb,  with  two  hits 
apiece  were  the  heavy  stick-wielders 
for  Oglethorpe.  Herrin's  home  run 
in  the  sixth  was  one  of  the  high  spots 
of  the  days  activities. 

The  following  afternoon  Coach 
Anderson's  proteges  evened  things 
up  with  Tennessee  by  taking  the 
second  game  12  to  7.

The  1928  Team 

COACH  Frank  B.  Anderson,  the  dean  of  Southern  baseball  coaches, 
faced  a  difficult  and  puzzling  problem  m  early  March  of  1928  when 
he  began  organizing  another  one  of  his  famous  ball  clubs  from  a 
group  of  candidates  who  lacked  the  polish  and  gusto  of  usual  Oglethorpe 
diamond  turnouts. 

Nevertheless,  the  sage  skipper  scratched  his  chin  and  busied  him- 
self. As  a  result  he  produced  one  of  the  fastest  infields  in  Oglethorpe 
baseball  history  and,  too,  introduced  several  outstanding  players  who  are 
destined  to  arouse  baseball  critics  before  their  college  careers  end. 

Kid  Jinx  was  the  stumbling  block  throughout  the  season.  Honestly, 
he  blocked  the  path  of  the  Petrels  at  nearly  every  turn.  Just  recall  the 
two  games  with  Tech  and  the  University  of  Georgia  series  and  you'll  cer- 
tainly place  that  sickening  mug  of  the  Kid ! 

Fourteen  letters  were  awarded  to :  Thompson,  catcher ;  Turner,  first 
base;  Martin,  second  base;  Taliaferro,  shortstop;  Reynolds,  third  base; 
Wall,  right  field ;  Laird,  left  field ;  Boswell,  centerfield ;  Mims,  utility  man ; 
Lawson,  York,  Vaughn,  Hutson,  pitchers  and  Buddy  Thrash,  manager. 


i 


-  And  The  1929  Team 


AS  the  Yamacraw  goes  to  press.  Coach  Anderson  is  again  busy  with 
his  young,   hustling  ball  players.      In  addition  to  the  veterans  of 
1928  — ■  Thompson,  Martin,  Reynolds,  Wall,  Lawson,  Vaughn  —  the 
skipper  has  a  bunch  of  recruits  from  the  Freshman  team  ready  to  fill  the 
vacancies  and  another  rosy  season  is  ahead! 

Al  Kimbrell,  a  backstop  of  ability ;  Mutt  Riddle,  a  pony  in  the  outfield ; 
Hubert  Holcomb,  first  baseman;  Horace  Byrd,  portside  pitcher;  Melton 
Rabon,  pitcher;  Ed  Emerson,  infielder;  George  Everett,  pitcher;  Keith 
McLaughlin,  outfielder;  Marion  Anderson,  second  baseman  and  a  chip  off 
the  old  block;  Harry  Adams,  backstop;  Ernest  Golden  and  Jenny  Wood- 
ward, outfielders  and  Claud  Herrin,  third  baseman,  are  the  new  candidates.

Track 

TRACK  at  Oglethorpe  has  been  more  or  less  a  one  man  affair  for  the 
past  two  years  with  a  slim,  frail  looking  lad  by  the  name  of  Blan- 

ford  Eubanks  playing  the  part  of  the  Lone  Wolf.  While  the  Petrels 
have  had  a  pretty  respectable  number  of  men  out  for  track  at  one  time 
or  another  through  the  seasons  of  1927  and  1928  only  two  of  these  men 
have  been  able  to  place  in  a  major  meet.  Hey  wood  Clement  is  the  only 
other  letterman  in  school  besides  Eubanks. 

As  a  freshman,  Eubanks  began  breaking  records  when  he  cleared  the 
bar  in  the  high  jump  at  the  Southern  Relays  at  5  feet  10  7-8  inches  and 
has  been  at  it  ever  since.  At  the  Southern  Relays  last  spring  "Banty" 
broke  his  own  record  in  the  high  jump  by  getting  over  5  feet  11  5-8  inches. 
A  little  later  on  he  journeyed  out  to  Lafayette,  Louisiana,  where  he  start- 
led the  natives  of  that  section  by  breaking  two  S.  I.  A.  A.  records  and 
equaling  a  third,  all  in  one  day.  Oglethorpe's  track  wizard  clipped  two- 
tenths  of  a  second  off  the  120-yard  high  hurdle  record  stepping  over  the 
barriers  in  15  seconds  flat.  His  next  feat  was  to  clip  four-tenths  of  a  sec- 
ond from  the  220-yard  low  hurdle  record  which  had  stood  since  1923  when 
he  ran  this  event  in  24  4-10  seconds.  In  equaling  the  S.  L  A.  A.  high 
jump  record  of  5  feet  11  1-2  inches  Eubanks  jumped  higher  than  the  rec- 
ord he  holds  in  the  Southern  relays.  Then  too  he  held  the  world's  record 
for  the  400  meters  hurdles  for  ten  minutes  last  summer  while  trying  out 
for  the  Olympic  team  up  in  Boston,  but  alas  some  one  came  along  and 
lowered  the  record  for  this  event  still  more.

Heywood  Monk  Clement,  who  acquired  the  sobriquet  "Apollo"  be- 
cause of  his  grace  in  handling  the  javelin  and  discuss,  stepped  from  be- 
hind the  scenes  in  1928  and  placed  in  the  Georgia  State  meet,  held  at 
Emory,  with  javelin  and  discuss  throws.  He  won  third  standing  in  both 
events.  Georgia  Tech,  Emory,  University  of  Georgia  and  Oglethorpe  par-

During  the  track  season  the  squad  participated  in  several  meets  of 
this  section.  In  a  dual  meet  with  the  Federal  Prison  aggregation,  the

Freshman  Football 


COACH  Homer  Chestnut  guided  his  battle-scarred  Freshmen— such 
they  were,  after  facing  the  varsity  in  the  first  few  scrimmages- 
through  a  successful  season  of  it  despite  the  many  reverses  in  the 
way  of  injury,  etc.     The  "rats"  came  through  with  five  victories  in  eight 
contests.      Not  so  bad,  huh? 

The  trio  of  losses  were  suffered  in  the  enemy's  backyard — one  to  a 
college  freshman  eleven  and  the  remaining  couple  of  prep  school  aggre- 
gations. The  University  of  Chattanooga  "rats",  tutored  by  "Scrappy" 
Moore,  former  Georgia  luminary,  inflicted  the  most  stinging  defeat  of  the 
season— a  25  to  12  victory  in  the  Tennessee  city  on  November  10. 

The  Frosh  ushered  in  the  season  along  with  the  varsity  on  September 
29,  dishing  out  a  sound  lacing  to  the  North  Georgia  Aggie  reserves  dur- 
ing the  rest  periods  of  the  Varsity-Aggie  game.  The  final  audit  of  the 
freshman  affair  was  32  to  0.  Dapper  Myers  and  Lefty  Sypert  were  the 
race  horses  of  the  day. 

The  "  rats"  suffered  their  first  defeat  the  following  week-end  in 
Rome,  Georgia,  bowing  to  the  Darlington  School  machine  by  the  score  of 
7  to  0.      And  the  following  week  the  Greenhorns  were  still  laboring  un-

der  the  strain  because  they  were  humbled  in  a  like  manner  by  the  River- 
side Cadets  in  Gainesville — this  time  by  a  6  to  0  score. 

But  the  good  times  started  again  the  following  week  when  the  Mad- 
ison A.  &  M.  team  was  smothered  70  to  0  on  Hermance  field.  The  boys, 
not  satisfied  with  the  trimming  handed  the  North  Georgia  Aggies,  jour- 
neyed to  Dahlonega  and  inflicted  another  defeat,  36  to  0.  Carrollton  A. 
&  M.  was  humbled  in  Carrollton  on  November  3  by  a  26  to  0  score. 

Then  came  the  third  defeat  of  the  season  at  the  hands  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  Chattanooga  freshmen.  It  was  a  rough  battle,  believe  us,  and 
the  crisis  was  not  reached  until  late  in  the  final  half.  But  the  "rats" 
redeemed  themselves  for  the  three  reverses  by  manhandling  the  Mercer 
Freshmen  in  Hawkinsville  on  November  29  by  the  decisive  score  of  25 
to  0. 

Coach  Chestnut  presented  an  exceptional  Freshman  team  and  from  it 
are  expected  to  be  graduated  several  outstanding  linemen  ball  toters  to 
the  varsity.

THE  Freshmen  of  1928-29  presented  a  most  colorful  array  of  basket- 
ball talent,  which,  besides  furnishing  the  varsity  formidable  opposi- 
tion in  practicing  rounds,  proceeded  to  humble  quite  a  few  of  the 
prep,  high  school  and  freshman  quintets  in  and  about  this  neck  o'  the 
woods. 

At  least,  the  "rats"  accomplished  something  that  freshman  teams  in 
the  past  have  utterly  failed  to  do.  And  that  was  a  victory  over  the  Jew- 
ish Progressive  Club  "Reds."  The  score  was  27  to  25.  But  the  "Reds" 
eased  their  feelings  by  administering  defeats  in  a  couple  of  return  games. 
In  Hubei't  Kadel  and  Cecil  Todd,  the  latter  of  Savannah  High,  Coach 
Campbell  had  a  pair  of  remarkable  scorers  and,  too,  flashy  and  capable 
as  floor  workers.  They  topped  the  "rat"  crew  in  performing  throughout 
the  season. 

All  in  all,  the  Frosh  commanded  situations  in  a  half  dozen  of  the  ten 
games  played  during  the  season.  Two  defeats  by  the  Atlanta  Athletic 
Club  "Reds",  one  by  the  Jewish  Progressive  "Reds"  and  one  by  the  Dai-- 
lington  School,  of  Rome,  constituted  all  of  the  bad  sailing  for  the  Baby 
Birds.  Two  of  these  defeats — by  Darlington  and  J.  P.  C.  "Reds" — were 
avenged.

The  Freshmen  had  their  biggest  froHcs  at  the  expense  of  the  North 
Georgia  Agricultural  College  Freshmen — once  on  the  Dahlonega  floor  and 
a  second  time  in  the  University  gym.  In  the  first  encounter  the  Babies 
came  out  in  front  by  a  63-25  score.  They  later  enticed  the  Aggies  to  the 
campus  and  thereupon  romped  easily  to  victory  by  the  overwhelming 
score  of  70  to  11. 

The  guarding  of  Frank  Anderson,  Jr.,  hailing  from  Darlington  School 
in  Rome,  and  Luke  Appling,  an  Atlanta  prep  star,  attracted  quite  a  bit 
of  attention  and  they  are  expected  to  add  to  the  strength  of  the  varsity 
in  1929-30. 

There  was  an  unusual  supply  of  forwards  on  the  "frosh"  team  and 
Coach  Campbell  had  very  little  trouble  in  finding  men  who  could  drop  the 
ball  through  the  mesh.  They  were:  Keener,  Bennett,  Sypert,  McMillan 
and  Leithe.  With  the  addition  of  several  of  the  Freshman  stars  to  the 
varsity  line-up  next  year,  Coach  Roby  should  place  a  winner  in  the  field.

Baseball 

A  LTHOUGH  "rat"  teams  in  the  other  two  major  sports  fared  very 
l\  satisfactorily,  the  real  glory  of  the  year  was  left  behind  for  the  hust- 
ling lot  of  young  baseball  scalawags  who  were  tutored  by  none  other  than 
genial  Coach  Harry  Robertson,  a  baseball  devotee  of  some  ability  himself. 
To  tell  the  interesting  feature  first  —  the  Frosh,  limited  to  a  small 
number  of  games,  buckled  down  to  brass  tacks,  as  it  were,  and  routed  the 
opposition  in  regular  order  without  once  erring  in  the  course  of  events. 
They  nicked  their  willows  five  times  for  as  many  victories. 

To  tell  still  another  interesting  feature  —  the  Frosh  humbled  the  first 
year  nine  of  the  University  of  Georgia  and  Georgia  School  of  Technology 
in  decisive  fashion! 

To  tell  yet  another  feature  —  the  Frosh,  at  this  writing,  have  placed 
seven  members  of  the  clan  on  the  1929  varsity  squad.  They  are:  Herrin, 
third  base;  Kimbrell,  catcher;  Riddle,  outfield;  Holcomb  and  Everett,  first 
base ;  McLaughlin,  outfield  and  Rabon,  pitcher.

One  of  the  most  promising  lot  of  balltossers  ever  gathered  at  the 
University,  the  critics  have  said.  They  corroborated  the  statement  in 
Freshman  activity  and  those  select  few  are  making  headway  on  the  var- 
sity squad. 

The  "rats"  ushered  in  the  season  with  a  landslide  victory  over  the 
Fulton  High  aggregation,  coached  by  a  former  Oglethorpe  performer,  by 
the  score  of  12  to  2.  The  opening  triumph  was  followed  a  week  later  by 
a  9  to  5  win  over  the  Georgia  Tech  Baby  Jackets. 

The  "rats"  invaded  Athens,  Georgia,  later  and  applied  the  paint  to 
the  University  of  Georgia  Bullpups.  The  score,  5  to  3.  The  Norcross, 
Georgia,  High  School  (home  of  several  big  league  players)  was  added  to 
the  list,  9  to  7.  The  "rats"  closed  the  season  with  a  shutout  win  over 
Fulton  High  in  their  second  encounter.     The  audit  was  8  to  0. 

The  hurling  duties  were  handled  mostly  by  Rabon,  Holcomb  and  Sul- 
livan.    To  say  the  least,  these  inexperienced  Freshmen  certainly  did  well.

The  Two  Leagues 


§ 


DID  the  basketball  folk  have  fun  ?  Well,  Boy  Howdy ! 
When  our  spirited  fraternity  brothers  and  loyal  sorority  sisters,  this 
time  arrayed  in  battle  formations  of  basketball  aggregations,  rubbed  el- 
bows in  the  University  gymnasium,  the  more  scholarly  boys  and  girls 
readily  recalled  the  legendry  tale  of  the  ten  years'  war  by  the  Greeks, 
under  Agamemnon,  against  the  Trojans. 

For  sometime  in  the  past  there  has  been  a  laxity  in  student  athletic 
activity  but  the  good  work  rerhained  for  the  newly  organized  Inter-fra- 
ternity council,  sponsor  of  both  the  Inter-fraternity  and  Inter-sorority 
basketball  leagues.  It  was  through  the  efforts  of  this  organization  that 
the  two  events  were  carried  through  so  successfully. 

Through  a  period  of  more  than  two  weeks  the  basketball  fives  of  the 
five  national  fraternities  and  the  three  sororities  waged  mortal  combat 
only  to  see  the  Alpha  Lambda  Taus  and  the  Phi  Kappa  .Etas  wobble 
through  the  thick  of  it  all  to  capture  the  bunting. 

It  was  great  fun,  believe  us,  and  the  scarred  belligerents  as  well  as 
the  excited  spectators  cried  for  more  when  festivities  had  reached  the 
official  close.  All  of  which  means  that  the  1928-29  league  movement  is  a 
precedent  which  will  be  followed  in  the  future  by  Oglethorpe  students. 

The  Inter-fraternity  Council  placed  in  competition  two  handsome  lov- 
ing cups  as  a  move  to  continue  the  activity  in  the  future.  One  of  the 
cups  was  donated  by  Dodson  and  Daniels,  Atlanta  jewelers,  and  the  other 
purchased  by  the  organization.  Any  team  winning  the  league  champion- 
ship twice  will  win  permanent  possession  of  the  trophy. 

It  will  be  remembered  that  in  1927-28  a  similar  movement  was  inau- 
gurated but  toward  the  climax  the  league  fell  through  with  the  Theta 
Kappa  Nus  topping  the  situation  without  suffering  defeat. 

Let  us  repeat  that  the  two  leagues  certainly  aroused  the  spirit  of  the 
student  body  but  what  manner  of  man  shall  he  be  who  sits  and  ponders 
during  the  procession  of  an  inter-fraternity  or  inter-sorority  basketball 
game  ?  •

CHAMPIONS     OF     INTER-FRATERNITY     LEAGUE 

DISPLAYING  a  superior  brand  of  basketball  throughout  the  league, 
the  young  Herculean  fellows  grouped  above  wended  through  the 
grind  without  suffering  defeat,  gaining  possession  of  the  trophy,  offered 
by  the  Inter-fraternity  Council,  for  the  year. 

The  declaration  of  victory  came  on  the  night  of  February  20,  in  the 
gymnasium  when  the  Pi  Kappa  Phi  quintet,  runner-up,  was  humbled  be- 
fore a  packed  house.  The  score  was  35  to  21.  It  was  a  rugged  game 
and  the  champions  did  not  gain  headway  until  the  latter  stages  of  the 
game  when  the  vanquished  weakened  considerably. 

The  personnel  of  the  championship  team:  Turk  and  Farrabee,  for- 
wards; Holcomb,  center;  Kimbrell  and  Baskin,  guards;  Brooks,  Tucker, 
Vaughn  and  Burford,  substitutes.

Phi  Kappa  Eta 

CHAMPIONS     OF     INTER-SORORITY     LEAGUE 

THESE  young  ladies,  by  virtue  of  a  decisive  victory  over  the  Zeta 
Tau  team,  runner-up,  became  champions  of  the  first  Inter-sorority 
basketball  league  at  the  University. 

The  bunting,  a  silver  loving  cup,  was  the  goal  of  three  sororities  at 
the  outset  —  Phi  Kappa  Eta,  Zeta  Tau  and  Chi  Omega.  The  last  men- 
tioned failed  to  score  a  victory  and  the  championship  tussle  remained  be- 
tween the  first  two. 

In  their  meeting,  the  Zeta  Taus  nosed  out  the  Phi  Kappa  Etas  by  a 
close  score  but  in  the  return  engagement  the  champions  uncorked  a  sur- 
prising  brand  of  basketball  and  swept  the  opposition  off  its  feet  to  win 
15  to  4.  Ruth  Frost,  captain,  led  the  victors  with  thirteen  of  the  total 
number  of  points  registered. 

The  members  of  the  squad :  Frost  and  Black,  forwards ;  Vardaman, 
center ;  Fowler  and  Alison,  guards ;  Brown,  McClung,  Woodall,  Williamson 
and  Martin,  substitutes.

oAll-Star  Team 


<?l 


!• 


FOLLOWING  the  championship  game  of  February  20,  between  Alpha 
Lambda  Tau  and  Pi  Kappa  Phi,  the  Stormy  Petrel,  school  publication, 
selected  an  All-Star  team  with  the  aid  of  the  coaches  of  the  various  teams. 
But  allow  the  publication  to  tell  the  story: 

"The  Stormy  Petrel,  after  carefully  considering  every  man  who  par- 
ticipated in  the  Inter-fraternity  basketball  competition,  makes  these  se- 
lections for  the  mythical  all-star  team. 


"First,  John  Turk,  Alpha  Lambda  Tau,  won  unanimously  one  forward 
berth.  No  explanation  for  this  selection  is  needed  for  those  who  saw  the 
final  game.  His  work  in  that  game  placed  him  head  and  shoulders  above 
the  other  forwards. 

"Hutchinson,  Theta  Kappa  Nu,  because  of  his  accuracy  in  scoring  and 
general  all-round  style  on  the  court,  was  awarded  the  second  forward 
position.     He  was  perhaps  the  most  valuable  man  to  his  fraternity  team. 

"For  center.  Jack  Mahoney,  Kappa  Alpha,  was  deemed  sufficiently 
worthy.  It  was  quite  difficult  to  decide  between  him  and  Holcomb,  A.  L. 
T.,  who  was  given  honorable  mention  for  center.  However,  Mahoney 
succeeded  in  getting  almost  every  tipoff  in  addition  to  scintillating  de- 
fensive and  offensive  tactics. 

"Kimball,  A.  L.  T.,  and  McSherry,  Pi  Kappa  Phi,  were  versatile 
enough  in  all  departments  of  the  game  to  be  awarded  the  guard  places. 


"Honorable  mention  as  forward  goes  to  Farabee,  A.  L.  T.,  while 
Dodd,  Delta  Sigma  Phi  exhibited  enough  ability  to  tnerit  mention  as  a 
guard."

Inter-Fraternity  Council 


f 


SHORTLY  after  the  opening  of  the  University  for  the  new  school  year, 
active  members  of  the  five  national  fraternities  on  the  campus — those 
interested  in  the  development  of  closer  relationship — gathered  and  form- 
ulated plans  for  Oglethorpe's  first  Inter-Fraternity  Council. 

The  purpose  of  the  Council,  as  stated  in  the  constitution,  leads  to  the 
creation  of  harmony  and  co-operation  among  the  fraternities  on  the  Uni- 
versity campus. 

It  was  stipulated  in  the  constitution  that  should  the  organization  be 
a  failure  or  meet  disapproval  of  any  of  the  fraternities  after  one  year  of 
trial,  then  it  shall  be  disbanded  at  the  request  of  the  dissatisfied  fraternity 
without  any  financial  loss.  But  if  it  proves  successful  and  is  allowed  to 
exist  more  than  one  year,  then  it  shall  be  considered  a  permanent  organi- 
zation changeable  only  through  the  unanimous  consent  of  the  members 
of  the  Council.

History  of  Fraternities 


^ 


THE  histoi-ical  genesis  of  fraternities,  both  national  and  honorary,  at 
the  University  carries  us  through  a  span  of  three  periods  dating  as 
far  back  as  the  year  of  1859  and,  too,  presents  a  kaleidoscopic  picture 
in  which  is  revealed  the  birth  of  one  national  organization  as  well  as 
several  honorary  fraternities  that  are  functioning  in  our  midst  today. 

The  establishment  of  fraternities  came  with  the  birth  of  Oglethorpe 
in  ante  bellum  days  at  Milledgeville,  Georgia,  then  the  capital  of  Georgia. 
In  the  year  of  1859  chapters  were  established  by  Beta  Theta  Pi  and  Sigma 
Alpha  Epsilon.  But  the  movement  was  short  lived  when  in  1861  the 
sons  of  the  University  marched  to  defend  colors  in  the  Civil  War. 

Later,  Oglethorpe  was  re-established,  locating  in  Atlanta.  Georgia. 
The  resurrection  was  brief — 1870  to  1873 — due  to  the  wave  of  financial 
disaster  following  the  War.  But  a  fraternity  spirit  was  active  and  three 
chapters  were  installed.  Kappa  Aplha,  Chi  Phi  and  Phi  Delta  Theta  in 
the  order  mentioned. 

The  third  period  of  the  fraternity  history  began  on  May  17,  1918 
when  Pi  Kappa  Phi  installed  a  chapter  at  the  new  University,  located  in 
Atlanta.  Since  that  time,  four  other  nationals,  Kappa  Alpha,  Delta  Sigma 
Phi,  Alpha  Lambda  Tau  and  Theta  Kappa  Nu  have  come  to  the  campus. 

The  national  fraternity  which  was  founded  on  the  campus  of  the  Uni- 
versity is  Alpha  Lambda  Tau.  It  entered  the  national  fraternity  field  in 
1920.  A  charter  was  granted  on  March  27,  1921.  From  1916  to  the 
time  of  the  big  adventure,  the  organization  was  known  as  the  Alpha 
Lambda  Club  on  the  campus. 

Following  the  installation  of  Pi  Kappa  Phi  on  May  17,  1918,  the  Kap- 
pa Alpha  chapter,  established  during  the  period  from  1870-73,  was  revived. 
In  1920  Zeta  Tau  was  founded  to  become  the  first  sorority.  Then  the 
Alpha  Lambda  Tau  Club  was  nationalized  on  March  27,  1921.  In  1922 
the  Alpha  Omega,  a  local  club,  was  granted  a  charter  by  the  Delta  Sigma 
Phi.  Chi  Omega,  second  sorority,  was  established  on  September  8,  1924. 
Theta  Kappa  Nu  was  the  next  fraternity,  coming  to  the  campus  in  1925. 
Phi  Kappa  Eta,  a  local  sorority,  is  the  latest,  being  founded  in  the  year 
of  1927.

History  of  Sororities 


SORORITIES  did  not  come  to  the  campus  of  the  University  until  1920, 
only  a  few  years  after  co-education  became  a  part  of  the  program  of 
the  University. 


(P 


It  was  in  1920  that  a  group  of  girls  banned  themselves  together  under 
the  name  of  Zeta  Tau  sorority,  leading  the  way  to  the  founding  of  two 
other  such  organizations  up  to  the  present  time. 

Two  years  later  another  female  organization,  Sigma  Alpha  sorority, 
was  established.  And  another  two  years  after  its  organization,  it  became 
the  Sigma  Gamma  Chapter  of  the  national  sorority,  Chi  Omega.  The 
chapter  was  installed  on  September  8,  1924. 

The  third  and  latest  sorority  is  Phi  Kappa  Eta,  a  local,  which  was 
organized  in  1927. 

One  of  the  most  harmonious  movements  of  the  three  sororities  took 
place  when  an  Inter-Sorority  Council  was  organized  for  the  promotion  of 
closer  relationship.      The  Council  has  been  very  active  this  year.

The  Boai-'s  Head,  first  honorary  club  to  be  organized  at  the  Univer-

Debate  Council 

Under  the  direction  of  Dr.  James  E.  Routh,  dean  of  the  School  of 
Literature  and  Journalism,  the  Oglethorpe  University  Debate  Council 
functioned  most  successfully  during  the  school  year. 

Beverly  Irwin  and  Bryant  Arnold,  president  and  business  manager, 
respectively,  arranged  two  outstanding  debates  for  the  spring  of  1929 
with  Louisiana  State  University  and  Princeton  University.  Allan  Wat- 
kins  and  Bryant  Arnold  won  a  unanimous  decision  over  L.  S.  U.,  on  Feb- 
ruary 12  at  Oglethorpe  and  James  B.  C.  Howe  and  Watkins  defeated 
Princeton  by  a  unanimous  decision  in  the  most  excellent  debate  ever  stag- 
ed here. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  present  council,  women  of  the 
university  were  admitted.  Misses  Gertrude  Murray  and  Helen  Board- 
man  were  elected  to  the  council.  They  did  not  take  part  in  an  actual 
debate  but  gained  much  valuable  experience  that  will  aid  in  their  work 
next  year. 

Just  before  the  National  election  of  the  fall,  Hayti  Thompson  and 
Beverly  Irwin  defeated  Clarence  Krebs  and  L.  Blake  Craft  in  a  debate  on 
the  question:  Resolved,  that  Alfred  E.  Smith  should  be  elected  president 
of  the  United  States  in  preference  to  Herbert  Hoover.  Mr.  Irwin  and 
Mr.  Thompson,  defending  the  affirmative,  won  the  decision  by  2  to  1.       .

Smith-Hoover  Debate 


Not  since  the  heydey  of  Mitchell  Bishop  and  Abe  Orowitz,  two  Petrel 
debaters  of  whom  we  have  heard  much  praise,  has  the  student  body  wit- 
nessed such  dramatic,  not  to  say  stirring,  debating  as  was  the  exhibition 
presented  by  the  Smith-Hoover  orators  in  the  auditorium  on  November  2. 

Words  flew  hot  and  fast  in  one  of  the  best  debates  witnessed  on  the 
campus  in  years.  The  forensic  artists  were  fired  with  a  great  enthusiasm 
for  their  respective  candidates  and,  secondly,  with  a  genuine  dislike  for 
the  opposing  candidate. 

The  Al  Smith  defenders,  Beverly  Irwin  and  Hayti  Thompson,  came 
through  with  flying  colors,  winning  a  two  to  one  decision.  Mr.  Herbert 
Hoover,  president  despite  the  loss  on  the  campus,  was  ably  defended  by 
Blake  Craft  and  Clarence  Krebs,  of  the  Atlanta  Theological  Seminary. 

Following  the  debate,  students  produced  the  red  pencil  and  cast  a  bal- 
lot for  one  of  the  two  candidates.  Congenial  Al  Smith  was  the  victor  the 
second  time  within  the  hour,  receiving  156  votes  against  69  for  Herbert 
Hoover.

University  Press 


With  two  cases  of  type  and  as  many  job  presses  in  addition,  of  course, 
to  a  corps  of  inspired  collegiate  printers,  the  Oglethorpe  University  Press 
got  its  start  in  the  year  of  1917.  Through  the  generosity  of  J.  Dillard 
Jacobs,  of  Atlanta,  Ga.,  the  necessary  material  and  equipment  was  fur- 
nished for  the  beginning. 

There  were  two  ends  in  the  establishment  of  the  University  print 
shop:  one  was  to  supply  the  institution  with  stationery,  etc.,  publish 
bulletins,  and  the  other  to  make  possible  a  means  of  earning  a  scholarship 
to  students  less  fortunate. 

The  print  shop  continued  on  the  increase  and  its  output  more  than 
doubled  in  less  than  ten  years  of  existence.  As  a  result,  in  1926  a  lino- 
type machine,  cylinder  press,  and  other  modern  mechanism  were  installed. 
It  was  the  gift  of  Dr.  Dillard  Jacobs,  of  Atlanta.  Shortly  afterwards,  the 
publication  of  the  Petrel  was  transferred  to  the  campus. 

Today  the  shop  is  just  twelve  years  old  and  is  producing  periodicals, 
campus  publications,  stationery,  and,  lately,  books,  winning  the  distinction 
of  being  the  only  college  press  in  the  South  to  print  its  own  text  books. 

J.  P.  Hansard,  member  of  the  Class  of  1926,  is  in  charge  of  the  Uni- 
versity Press  and  is  ably  assisted  by  Ray  Todd,  Morrell  Driver  and  Jen- 
nings Dennis,  students.

What!  When!  Why! 


The  Petrel  Follies ! 

It's  becoming  to  be  a  pet  expression  these  days 
among  the  theatre  folk  of  Atlanta  as  well  as  the  stu- 
dents of  the  University.  Those  performances  of  the 
past  two  years  at  local  theatre  houses  convinced  thou- 
sands of  theatre  folk  that  the  University  has  in  its  midst 
a  group  of  talented  students — and,  too,  a  talented  direc- 
tor. 

F^  Two  years  ago  Earl  Blackwell,  now  president  of  the 

student  body,  conceived  of  the  idea.  He  tackled  the  job  single-handed 
and  in  the  end  put  over  to  the  satisfaction  of  theatre-goers  for  two  nights 
a  splendid  production.  In  fact,  it  was  so  successful,  there  was  a  demand 
for  another  performance.     Earl  did  not  hesitate. 

And  again  in  1929  Earl  was  on  the  job  bright  and  early.  As  a  result 
he  devised  and  produced  another  Follies  equally  as  good  if  not  a  wee  bit 
better  than  the  1928  show. 

All  of  which  means  that  the  Petrel  Follies  has  become  a  permanent 
thing.  Just  who  will  take  over  the  burden  of  producer  and  director  when 
Earl  leaves  is  the  one  big  question. 

For  a  number  of  years  the  dramatic  students  of  the  University  have 
written  and  produced  their  own  plays,  being  the  only  group  to  do  so  until 
a  few  years  ago.  And  now  the  students  have  gone  one  better  by  produc- 
ing their  own  Follies! 

Aesthetic  dancing,  toe  dancing,  jazz  singing,  comedians,  choruses  to 
rival  the  best,  trained  musicians — they're  just  a  few  of  the  things  Earl 
presented  to  the  public.     It  was  an  array  of  talented  entertainers  capable       ^ 
of  even  causing  Flo  Zeigfield  to  wriggle  in  his  seat.  ^

c/4  Criticism 


^ 


THE  Oglethorpe  Players  Club,  with  the  able  assistance  of  the  Oglethorpe  orches- 
tra, December  6th  and  7th  presented  their  1928  contribution  to  the  gaiety  of  the 
community.  They  presented  the  "Petrel  Follies,"  an  entertainment,  friends, 
worth  much  more  than  the  price  of  admission,  whether  Oglethorpe  be  your  collegiate 
weakness  or  not. 

It  is  invidious  to  make  comparisons,  at  any  time  and  in  any  manner.  It  is  still 
more  invidious  to  attempt  to  compare  an  amateur  performance  with  the  work  of 
stage  professionals.      For  it  is  fair  to  neither.      They  are  two  entirely  distinct  specii. 

Professionals  may  have  more  training,  greater  mechanical  perfection  and  more 
aplomb  before  the  hundred-eyed  monster,  the  audience.  But  amateurs  have,  to  ofl'- 
set  this,  an  enthusiasm,  a  freshness  and  a  charm  that  professionals  can  never  hope  to 
duplicate. 

Last  night  the  "Petrel  Follies"  gave  us  a  program  that  sparkled  with  the  fresh- 
ness and  enthusiasm  of  the  amateur  and  added  to  it  a  perfection  of  production  that 
can  only  be  described  as  professional  amateurism.     So  let  it  go  at  that. 

It  is  impossible  to  name  all  the  incidents  and  acts  of  the  program.  It  is  one  of 
those  revues  where  one  item  follows  another  so  fast  that  you  lose  count  and  memory 
cannot  hope  to  list  them  later  in  orderly  progress.  Sufficient  to  know  that  you  enjoy 
each  one  so  much  you  wonder  how  come  you  thought  those  that  had  gone  before  could 
be  the  best  of  the  night. 

From  the  opening  numbers  by  the  orchestra — by  the  way,  professional  or  other- 
wise, there  isn't  a  theatre  in  Atlanta  with  an  orchestra  that  plays  as  zippily  as  the 
Oglethorpians — to  the  last  finale  it  was   amusing,  clever,  modern   and   zestful. 

Likewise,  it  is  impossible  to  name  the  performers.  There  were  too  many.  But 
recollection  picks  out  as  high  lights,  say  Sara  Sharp  and  her  tap  dancing.  Louise 
Madden  and  her  songs,  Hayti  Thompson,  Jimmy  Anderson,  Dwight  Horton  and  Jake 
Sutton  and  their  comedy.  Eugenia  Buchanan  and  her  splendid  voice,  Robert  Jester 
Harbour  and  her  gorgeous  "Peacock"  act,  George  McMillan,  Joe  Freeman,  Blanford 
Eubanks  and  their  vocalising. 

And,  if  Texas  Guinan  were  only  half  as  attractive  as  her  copy  last  night,  she'd 
be  too  good  for  New  York.  Also,  Marian  Attridge  can  "put  over"  a  song,  emphat- 
ically. 

Then  don't  forget  Frank  Inman,  Paul  Madden,  Theodosia  Hunnicutt  and  all  the 
rest  of  the  gang,  particularly  Earl  Blaekwell,  the  director,  and  Bob  Shaw,  musical 
director.  Anyway  who  knows  how  hard  they  must  have  worked  to  achieve  such  a 
resiflt. 

All  in  all,  the  "Petrel  Follies"  is  a  distinctly  snappy  item  of  the  season,  and  if 
you  are  so  forgetful  as  to  overlook  it  tonight  let  your  folly  be  on  your  own  head. 
Incidentally,  the  co-eds,  fair  and  brunette,  usher  all  comers  to  their  seats  with  a  de- 
licious touch  of  welcome  that  is  balm  to  a  tired  newspaper  scribbler's  heart. — Ralph 
T.  Jones  in  the  Atlanta  Constitution.

Co-ed  History 


1       snow  storm  in  the  desert !     Roses  blooming  in  Iceland ! 

■^^  Even  a  sophisticated,  cynical  world  would  be  sent  into  pandemonium 
should  such  a  thing  come  to  pass.  But  never  will  the  world  see  a  more 
frenzied  group  of  young  men  than  the  Oglethorpe  students  of  the  class  of 
1919  when  they  realized  that  a  co-ed  had  succeeded  in  crashing  the  gates 
of  the  Petrel  Institution  of  Learning! 

Miss  Martha  Shover — pioneer  of  Lindberghian  courage,  was  the  bit 
of  femininity  that  startled  the  heretofore  secure  male  existence  of  the 
Petrels.  And  from  the  very  beginning  she  gave  these  men  to  understand 
that  co-eds  were  not  content  to  be  mere  figureheads. 

So  the  Petrel  files  of  November,  1919,  relate  that  "to  Miss  Martha 
Shover  goes  the  honor  of  being  the  first  woman  to  hold  office  among  stu- 
dent activities  at  Oglethorpe."  She  was  elected  secretary  and  treasurer 
of  the  freshman  class. 

"Boys!  Sharpen  Your  Razors— Fifty  Co-eds  On  Their  Way!"  So 
read  the  glaring  headline  in  the  Petrel  for  September  1921.      And  then 

"An  incentive  for  every  Oglethorpe  man  adopting  a  slogan  of  'a  shave 

a  day'  and  the  return  of  the  lost  art  of  sporting  collars  and  ties  is  offered 
in  the  announcement  that  forty  young  ladies  of  Atlanta  have  registered 
at  the  university  for  the  coming  year." 

The  outstanding  achievement  in  1921  seemed  to  be  the  fact  that 
thirty-seven  per  cent  of  the  co-eds  were  red-haired,  so  the  Petrel  files  tell 
us.  But  storm  clouds  were  already  gathering.  The  winter  of  1922  the 
Co-eds  broke  into  print.  The  disturbing  crash  of  thunder  came  when 
Mariana  Goldsmith  wrote,  "If  the  girls  can  vote,  why  can't  they  also  be 
voted  for?" 

Meanwhile  these  brave,  courageous  pioneers  were  struggling  to  instill 
a  feminine  atmosphere;  they  started  with  the  Co-ed  Room.  "Some  want 
a  couch,  others  want  a  table.      But  all  are  in  favor  of  a  mirror."

In  the  fall  of  1923,  thirty-five  "young  and  innocent  males"  banded 
together  for  protection  against  the  winning  ways  of  co-ed  flappers,  and 
called  their  organization  the  Anti-Co-ed  Club!  But  this  did  not  inter- 
fere with  the  co-eds'  activities.  They  played  basketball,  went  out  for 
debating,  acted  superbly  in  the  Players  Club,  wrote  for  the  campus  pub- 
lications, competed  with  the  men  students  in  almost  everything  and  still 
maintained  their  "winning  ways." 

And  now,  in  the  grand  old  year  of  1929,  we  discover  the  fact  that  the 
female  students  are  taking  a  very  active  part  in  various  activities,  viz. 
Stormy  Petrel,  Yamacraw,  basketball,  tennis,  Follies,  Players'  Club,  de- 
bating. There  is  quite  a  contrast  between  the  years  1919  and  1929 — 
just  ten  years  difference — regarding  the  fair  student! 

Probably  one  Co-ed  whose  name  will  live  through  the  ages  of  Co-ed 
history  is  Evelyn  Silverman,  a  talented  writer,  a  wise  student  and  a  sa- 
gacious individual.  During  the  past  two  years  she  captured  the  literati 
with  her  "Brewing"  column  in  the  Stormy  Petrel.  She  has  had  several 
short  stories  accepted.  She  played  a  prominent  part  in  the  victory  at 
High's  department  store.  She  has  made  good  as  a  student  of  literature 
and  journalism  and  a  brilliant  career  is  ahead. 

Martha  Shover,  who  was  elected  secretary  and  treasurer  of  the 
Freshman  class  in  1919,  no  longer  can  be  labeled  the  only  Co-ed  to  capture 
votes.  In  1928,  Evelyn  Hollingsworth  was  chosen  vice-president  of  the 
Senior  class.  And  this  year  Mildred  Bradley  was  elected  advertising  man- 
ager of  the  Yamacraw  for  1930.     Not  so  bad  for  the  girls ! 

The  past  year  has  been  a  progressive  one  for  the  Daughters  of  Ogle- 
thorpe.     They  have  installed  with  notable  success  a  Co-ed  Council,  and 
have  drawn  up  the  first  Co-ed  Constitution  that  the  college  has  ever  had. 
But  sure  proof  of  their  growth  and  progress  is  presented  with  the  fact 
•L      that  where  one  mirror  hung  before,  three  now  hang!

Co-ed  Basketball  Team 

SINCE  the  year  of  1923  the  Co-eds  have  entered  a  team  in  the  basket- 
ball field  despite  the  many  handicaps  and  disheartening  reverses.    Dur- 
ing the  recent  season  they  failed  to  break  through  for  a  victory  but 
still  there  is  spirit  and  anticipation  for  a  better  round  of  it  in  1930. 

The  Co-eds  did  not  participate  but  in  three  games  in  1929  due  to  the 
Inter-Sorority  league,  sponsored  by  the  Inter-Fraternity  Council,  which 
occupied  the  most  of  their  afternoons.  Two  games  were  lost  to  Piedmont 
College  and  a  third  to  North  Georgia  Agricultural  College. 

Several  outstanding  players  did  not  join  the  Co-ed  squad  until  the 
Inter-sorority  league  was  concluded  and  thus  a  reason  for  the  erratic 
playing  in  the  early  games. 

The  members  of  the  squad  were:  Myrtle  Sullivan,  Jean  Nutting, 
Doris  Taylor,  Louise  Madden,  Ruth  Frost,  Margaret  Vardaman,  Mary  X. 
Gunter,  Pansy  Bugg,  Martha  Riddick,  Gertrude  Murray,  Mildred  Bradley, 
Helen  Boardman  and  Rosetta  Magill.

AN  ESSAY  ON  SILENCE 
Bv  Zelan  Wills 


ALL      IN 


N  A 


Editor  (to  Beall  and  Brinson)  :  Know 
any  jokes  we  can  use  in  the  annual? 

Answer:  Naw,  but  we  know  a  great 
Big    Joker. 

Editor:     Whoosit? 

Chorus:     John   Renfroe. 

FAMOUS  FOLK 

Many  famous  men,  or  rather  little  men 
with  big  names,  have  been  seen  around  the 
campus,  such  as:  Wilson,  Morgan,  Gordon, 
Bryant,  Hancock,  Adams,  Jackson,  Virgil 
Cooper,  Hamilton,  Brown,  Buchanan,  Em- 
erson, Goldsmith,  Johnson,  Marie,  Riley, 
Simpson,  Taylor  and   Smith. 

Jack  Murphy  tells  us  that  he  saw  a 
Scotchman  down  town  the  other  day  throw- 
ing rocks  at  the  newsboys  in  hopes  they'd 
hurl  a  paper  at  him. 


The  BMiop  and  the  ShoeHinith,  one  was 
English  and  the  other  a  Turk,  were  stand- 
ing on  the  edge  of  the  Brooke  arguing  as 
to  who  was  Wright  in  regard  to  a  Wade 
in  the  water.  "Shaw,"  said  the  Bishop, 
"you  be  the  fiirse  one  to  enter!"  But  a 
couple  of  bgrds  appeared  from  the  ivoods 
and  attracted  him.  As  the  Bishop  watched 
the  Height  of  their  flight,  he  fell  in  the 
Poole  and  shouted  that  he  was  a  Coleman. 
The  Shoesmith  faced  a  Riddle  in  pulling 
his  Pal  from  the  Poole  but  he  succeeded 
and  they  continued  in  the  Woods,  ap- 
proaching  two  Bridges.  A  few  feet  be- 
yond was  seen  a  Wall  which  was  very 
Long.  They  scaled  the  Wall  and  saw  a 
Broirn  Church  over  the  Hill. 

"Hoice  can  I  dry  my  clothes?"  said  the 
Bishop.  A  Gran  Fox  appeared  and  the 
two  ran  to  the  Church.  They  rang  the 
Bell  of  the  parsonage  but  no  one  answered 
so  they  found  the  Key  and  entered.  The 
drenched  Bishop  sat  on  the  Davenport 
■while  the  Shoesmifli  went  in  the  kitchen 
and  found  some  Coffee  and  Bacon.  The 
wet  Bishop  reached  in  his  pocket  and 
found  a  Hevrin  that,  evidently,  secreted  its- 
elf when  the  victim  fell  in  the  Brooke. 
"Am  I  crazy?"  he  shouted.  "Fll  be  going 
Nutting   soon." 

Before  he  had  hardly  finished,  the  But- 
lev  entered.  He  listened  to  the  Bishop's 
story  and  informed  him  that  the  pastor 
was  in  Montgomery  and  would  later  visit 
in  Hamilton.  "It  is  all  Wright  for  you  to 
stay,"  he  said  kindly.  The  Bishop  want- 
ed to  know  his  Price  for  the  trouble  and 
the  answer  was  in  the  negative. 

The  intruder  suffered  chills  so  he  plac- 
ed himself  in  a  Crouch.  The  Butler  put 
a  Black  blanket  around  his  body.  The 
Shoesmith  brought  the  Bacon  and  Herrin 
and  Coffee  and  they  dined. 

"We  wish  you  Moore  luck  than  the  gods 
can  give,"  they  said  and  then  departed. 

Don't  be  too  hard  on  the  Co-eds;  they're         (7 
hard   enough!

Dr.  Jacobs:  What  do  you  think  of  this 
Evolution? 

Nowell:  Well,  it's  a  good  idea  —  but 
can   they   enforce   it? 

WHAT,   HO! 

Hickory,  dickory,   dock, 
My  girl  has  bought  a  clock; 
I'm  afraid  to  squeeze  her, 
Yes,    even    to    tease    her. 
For  fear  she'll  gimme  a  sock. 

A  GENIUS 
The  dignified  Senior  was  filling  out  an 
application.  What  is  your  father's  occu- 
pation?" read  the  question.  The  answer 
was  '"Nothing."  The  next  question  was: 
"What  do  you  intend  to  do?"  and  the  ans- 
wer was:     "Do  the  same   as  my  pappy." 

Little  Boy :  Say,  Mister,  will  that  man 
there    (pointing  to  Vaughn)   go  to  heaven? 

Wild  Boy:     Sure,  lad. 

Little  Boy:  But,  Mister,  angels  don't

Wild  Boy:  Quite  right  but  he'll  get  in 
heaven  with  a  close  shave.

cestors did. 

Bob  Shaw:     Why,  the  dirty  things! 

Nixon:  What  business  are  you  going 
in  next  year? 

Sims:      The  food   business,   my   comrade. 
Nixon:     Yeah?     Well,  what  part? 
Sims:      Why,  the   eating   part. 

Neuhoff:  Why  did  you  run  away  from 
Hot? 

Carroll:     I  just  Wanted  to  be  chased. 


Clem:      Say,  that  girl  over  there    (Mar- 
tha)   is  a  man  hater. 
Asa:     Yeah?

HUMAN  NATURE 
Humanity  is  a  great  mystery.  Y'ou  can 
do  and  do,  serve  and  serve,  put  yourself 
out  time  after  time,  then  fail  in  one  single 
instance  and  all  the  good  you  ever  did  is 
forgotten  in  the  storm  of  hate  and  scorn 
hurled  in  your  direction.  Too  bad  we  are 
so  forgetful.

COCOANUT    BLUES 
Under   the   spreading   cocoanut   tree, 
I    counted    my   golden   treasure; 
A    monkey    looked    down, 
Dropped    a    nut   on    my    crown. 
And  I  looked  elsewhere  for  my  pleasure.

ON    THE   WAY  TO     LIBBY   CA5TLE 


tim(xmGiiM:m% 


THE      STRANGER 
"Well,   boys'   I've   come  to   town, 

The  call  of  the  bar  was  strong — 
Stop   all  of  your  games,   and  drink  to  the 
health 
Of  a  man  who  is  always  wrong." 

'Twas  in   a  way  as  this — 

On  a  cold  November  eve 
That   we   saw   first 
He  who  had  just  come  in 

He  told  us  to  call  him  Steve. 

He  had  the  face  of  an  eight  day  clock 
The   walk  of   the   mountaineer's   stride 

The  look  of  an   Indian, 

The  voice  of  a  bell. 

And  we  thought  he  was  here  to  hide. 

He'd  been  through  heaps  and  gobs  of  pain, 

'Twas  written  in  his  face, 
This  mystery  man  whom  none  had  seen 

Other  than  at  this  place. 

But,  true  to  the  style  and  customs 
Of  our  Northwest,  bless  the  ham. 

He  asked  no  questions. 

Got  no  answers, 

And  didn't  give  a  damn! 

Thus  we  sized  the  stranger  up 

And    though    we    eyed    him    still — 

As  time  flew  by, 

And  nothing  came 

We  let  him  alone  to  fill. 

For  he  loved  his  whiskey,  clear  he  said, 
And  though  he  was  always  drunk, 

He  kept  his  mouth  shut  all  the  time 
And  we  classed  him  as  a  skunk. 

Now  as  is  our  custom  to  make  one  talk 
In  our  far  Northwest  town, 
Q,^        We  called  in  one  "Mary  Ann" — 
^-^  To  open  the  mouth  of  this  clown. 


Now  Mary  Ann  is  the  flower  of  the  wilds- 
The  lil'  of  the  Valley— the  sun— 

And  though  she  took  to  none  of  us 

*^        (p  She  fell  right  for  this  bum. 


So  we  gave  her  a  week  to  open  his  mouth 

To  find  out  his  business  and  trade — 
But  they  fell  for  each  other  like  a  ton  of 
brick 
And   he   drank  naught  but  sweet  lemon- 
ade. 

Two  more  weeks  and  we  found  a  note 
That  drowned  us  in  all  despair — 
The  note  said  she,  "Mary   Ann," 
Has  for  him,  gone  to  care. 

She  also  found  out  who  he  was — 

A  reporter  her  note  had  said. 
Come  to  the  North  to  confirm  the  report 

That   Dan    McGrew   was   dead.

We  come  in  this  world 

All  naked  and  bare — 
We  go  through  this  world 
With  trouble   and   care. 
We    die!      We    go!

A  NEW  LIFE 

Bending,  moping,  flowers   sway, 
And   lift   their   heavy   heads; 
Waked  to  life  by  a  glistening  ray, 
They  rise  from  their  frosty  beds; 
Murmuring   brooklets    and    birds   that   sing 
Announce   the   advent   of    Patient    Spring.

JUST  WISHING 
0 !     Would  there  were 

Some   kind   of   power 
To    make    me   dream 

From   hour   to   hour — 

I'd   dream   of   Love 

From    day   to   day, 

And   always   live 
In    ecstasy.

BALL  GAME  EPISODE 
The  batter  stood  at  the  plate, 

The  count  was  three-and-two, 
His   face   bore   signs   of   hate 

And   vengeance   through   and   through. 

The   pitcher  breezed   one  by — 

It  split  the  center  o'  the  pan — 

The  batter  socked  'im  in  the  eye 
And  ran   and  ran  and  ran.

tii:^c[}MGWsm% 


9ik 


The  following'  writing  was  found  beside 
the  dead  body  of  its  author  in  the  middle 
of  the  Arizona  desert.  It  is  an  attempt 
of  a  dying  man  to  put  into  verse  the  ac- 
count of  the  only  good  deed  in  his  life. 
It  is  reprinted  here  as  it  was  found  except 
for  a  short  paragraph  that  was  too  blood- 
stained to  read,  but  which  started:  "To 
Whom  It  May  Concern.".  The  rest  was 
as  follows: 

I  was  knowed  by  seven  names 

From  Haiti  to  Nome  and  back, 

A   cut-throat,  grim-ridden   son-of-a-gun, 
Kept  alive  wid   a  blade,  and  tact. 

Yes,  I've  kilt,  for  revenge,  for  money, 

For  fun,  and  laughed   as  I  slit  a  gut, 

Half  drunk  for  months  at  a  time, 
A  fight-lovin'  fool,  a  slut. 

I  knowed  what  I'se  doin',  yes, 

Jest  in  me  to  do  it,  I  guess, 
But  there's  one  white  trick  I  pulled  in  my 
life, 

Though  I'm  payin'  for  it  wid  my  best. 

Yep!     I'm  dyin'  and  oh!     Hell, 

What   a  way  to   die, 
Wid   bullet   holes   all   through   me 

And  the  lid  torn  off'n  my  eye. 

But  strange  to  me,  it  seems,  I'm  happy, 
Yeh,   happy   By   God!      and   why? 

It's   cause  of  that  trick  I   jest  now  pulled 
And   though    it's   causin'   me   to   die. 

I   shake  my   own   damn  hand   on  it 

And   I'll   shake   it   again   if   I   live, 

I"l  tell  you  about  it  if  I  can  hold  out 

And   forget    about   being   like    a    sieve. 

Been    about    two    years    ago     that     I     wuz 
riding  through 
A   pasture   right   off'n   th'   road. 
Fell    off    my    horse,    couldn't    hold    'im    no 
more 
Cause    I'se    totin'    a    load. 


Yeh!  A  load  of  lead  pumped  into  me 
By  a  snake  I  took  for  a  friend, 

When  a  farmer  picks  me  up  and  says 
"You're  mighty  nigh  your  end". 

But  he  took  me  to  his  farmhouse 

And  lay  me  down  on  a  bed 
Jes'  like  he'd  done  for  any  man — 

If   it  wasn't  for  him   I'd  been   dead. 

Well,  he  dressed  my  wounds  and  fixed  me 
up 

And  saw  that  I  eat  and  drink, 
And   he's  th'   man   that   saved   my  life 

And    pulled   me   from   death's   brink. 

He   had   a   little  baby   gal. 

Oh!     She  was  a  purty  little  tot 

And  it  was  a  hell  of  a  combination — 
Them   two    and   me — a    sot. 

Well,  I  learnt  to  love  the  little  gal. 
She  was  about  six  and  a  half. 

And  while  her  pappy  wuz  off'n  to  work 
She'd  talk  to  me  and  laugh. 

I  couldn't  move,  even  my  arm 
For  six  weeks,  maybe  seven. 

And  I'll  never  forget  them   days   wid   her, 
It's  as  close  as  I'll  come  to  heaven. 

She  cared  for  me  like  she  was  used  to  it 
And  saw  that  I  got  along  fine, 

It  took  me  back  to  the  long  gone  days 
When  I'se  about  eight  or  nine. 

One  night  when  I  was  well  enough  to  leave 
And   I   bid   'em   both  goodbye. 

The  old  man  shook  my  hand  and  said 
He  guessed  the  little  gal'd  die. 

But    the    law    was    a-comin'    and    a-eomin' 
fast, 

Hot    again    on   my    trail, 
So  I  had  to  git,  as  my  kind  does. 

To   stay  outta  sight  and  jail. 

That  was  a  little  over  a  year  ago, 

I'd  been  pinin'  for  my  little  pal. 
While   the    sheriffs   was   keepin'    me   up    in

th'  hills 
And  away  from  that  baby  gal. 

But  I  made  up  my  mind  to  sec  her, 

Sn    one    night    when    there    wasn't    no 
moon, 

I   steps   outta   the   hills   and   starts   ridin' 
Wid   half   a   shant-e  of  a  loon. 

And   when   I   start   ridin'   I'm    shootin' 
So   five   of   'em   bit   the   dust. 

The   other   man   I    aimed    at   lives 

Cause   the   other   bullet   was   rust. 

But  there   was   plenty   more,   I   knew, 

Ilidin'  round  every  hill. 
And   they   had   but   one  thing   in   mind — 

To   see   me    in   jail,    or   to   kill. 

I   rode   out  two   horses'   tongues  that   night 
Trying    to    outrun    the    pack, 

I   wanted   to   fix   my   leg   they   got  to— 
The  blood   was  all  turnin'  black. 

Early  the  next  morning  I  lands  in  the 
yard 

Of  the  farmer  that  once  picked  me  up. 
But   there    was.nt   no    sign    of    life   there 

Save  for  a  little  mangy  pup. 

So  I  ditched  my  horse  and  limped  towards 

A   barn   half   full   of   hay. 
Slammed   the   door   and    heard    the   yells 

Of  the  posse   a  mile   away. 

Had   plenty   of   shot  and   felt  purty   sound. 

Wasn't    caring   a   bit, 
I  could  shoot  'em  all  up,  on  the  ground 

While  they   could  tell   when   I   hit. 

Well,  the  posse  arrives  twenty  men  strong. 

Blood  thirsty  and  rarin'  to  shoot, 
"Well,  I'll  give  'em  that,"  I  thought  to  my- 
self. 

With    a    little    more    to    boot. 
So   I   start  things   off,  the   pup   gets   pran- 
cing, 

And  lights  out  to  where  I  lay, 
I  cusses  to  myself  to  have  let  him  live 

To   come   and   give   me   away. 


But    I    draws    back    my    gat    and    get 

get    ready    to    work, 
Smilin'  and  frownin'  in  time. 
When   somethin'   back   o'   me   causes   me   to 

jerk 
And   forget   all   other   worries   o'   mine. 

Then   wid   shaking   hands   and   a   lead   of   a 
bullet 
I    wrote    a    note   on   tlie   door. 
And    with    tears    in    my    eyes    I    limped    to 
my    horse 
Playin'   target   like   a   boar. 

Shooting  to  all  sides  o'  me 

And   gettin'    shot   in    return, 

Tryin'   to   live   just   long   enough 

To  do  what  I  thought  I  had  earn. 

And  so  here  I  am  a  bleedin'  fool 
Wid  a  lid  torn  off'n  my  eye. 

With  white  ants  crawling  all  over  me 
A-helpin'  me  to  die. 

But  I'm  thankful  for  livin'  long  enough 
To  write  all  this  and — well, 

But  I've  gotta  hurry  and  finish  this  thing 
Before  I  go  off  to  Hell. 

When    the   sheriff   wonders   why    I    left   th' 
barn 

To  get  shot  at  by  his  men. 
He'll  go  in  the  barn  and  look  around 

And  find  my  note  then. 

That  I  was  a-goin'  to  face  his  guns 

I  put  in  the  note  just  why 
Kniiwin'  damn   well   I'd  git  shot  all  up 

And   had   nothin'  to  do  but  die. 

This  is  what  I  wrote  the  sheriff'. 

You  kin  understand  it  too, 
"Dear  Sheriff,  my  reason  for  not  shooting 
from  here 

Is  in  the  wood  box,  best  wishes  to  you." 

And  when  he  opens  the  wood  box  up 
Wid   a   gun   drawn   in   his   hand, 

He'll   see   a   blue   eyed   baby   gal 
And  then  he'll  understand.

Drink 


Delicious  and  Refreshing 


The  drink  that's  a  blend 
of  pure  products  from 
nature  .—  and  nature's 
finest  flavors,  gathered 
from  nine  different 
climes.  Nothing  syn- 
thetic or  artificial  is  used. 

The  proof  of  the  purity 
is  in  the  testing.  Twenty- 
two  scientific  tests,  cov- 
ering every  step  in  its 
preparation,  assure  it. 

It's  wholesome  refresh- 
ment^ just  the  thing 
for  a  minute's  pause  to 
relax  and  refresh  your- 
self. Such  a  little  min- 
ute is  long  enough  for 
a  big  rest.

No  wonder  COLDS 
yield  so  quickly 


Vicks  attacks  them 
2  ivays  at  once 

Just  rubbed  on  throat  and 
chest,  Vicks  relieves  colds 
two  ways  at  once: 

(1)  It  acts  through  the 
skin  like  a  poultice  and 
"draws  out"  tightness  and 
soreness. 

(2)  Its  healing  vapors, 
released  by  the  b  o  d  y- 
warmth,  are  inhaled  direct 
to  the  inflamed  air-pass- 
aees.  Most  colds  usually 
vield  oveTijqrbt.
