Realizing the deadliness of monoto- \ Wiimi) nous repetition, the editors of the

"^^-^ ,J- IQ28 Cap and Gou-n have attempted

to make this, the Greater Seu-anee ^ edition, a volume more colorful than

its predecessors and one more repre- .-^ sentative of student life on the Moun- J ^ tain. So, claiming no more than to be the result of good intentions, your annual humbly awaits you.

Dr. B. F. Finney III I'Cliaudtlor

Dr. B. F. FiniK'v attended Sewanee as a

.student, and later graduated from V. P. I. at Blacksburg, Va. In 1924, he was given th; honorary degree of LL.D. from Hobart Col-

lege, Geneva, N. ^ . Dr. Pinney was named a regent of the University in 1913, and in 1922 accepted the call to come to Sewanee as vic;- chancellor.

During the time that he has been in office, Dr. Finney has accomplished and done much for the betterment of the University. His

regime has been an active one, filled with the undying spirit and love for his old Alma Mater—Sewanee.

Dean George M. Baker

Sewanee has been fortunate in having for her dean Dr. George Merrick Baker, who, in his several years in that capacity, has won as his friends and companions the majority of men who have left this Uni- versity. Dr. Baker, a graduate of Yale Univer- sity, came to Sewanee in 1917 as Professor of the Germanic Languages. A few years later he was made Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Previous to coming to Sewanee, he had been Instructor in German at Yale, and later head of the German De- partment at William Penn Charter School, Philadelphia. During the World War, he enlisted in the Foreign Service Department of the A. E. F., and witnessed actual service in France.

Praising thee for light, to kindle Other lamps beyotid the rim.

Joy is thine, the joy of morning, Regal with extended palm. Alma Alater, noiv we praise thee For thy calm, eternal calm.

Sewanee s Coaches ^N»-^ Of recent years Se-

\\ anee has built up a

coaching staff which ranks

with the best in the South.

The University has real- ^^H l^^^^l '^ ized the importance of athletics in the college cur- riculum, and accordingly she has gathered together her leaders who are men w of the highest moral character, as well as men who

are able to impart their

athletic knowledge in a

way which brings real re-

^y |P| -as sults.

MiKh l>K \ M.IT Bes' Cubbage

Coach Mike Bennett

Head of all athletics, has developed a system which allows a light team to cope successfully with a heavier one; in other words Bennett is an exponent of the tricky over- head pass and lateral toss for which his teams have become famous.

Co.^CH Ben Cubbage

Bennett's right hand man, takes care of the line throughout the football season, Dur- ing the spring Coach Ben gives able advice to his fleet track aspirants.

Mr. Yarnell Barnes

Coach of basketball, successfully whipped his team into shape in spite of the loss of the gymnasium due to fire. His freshman team gives promise of making the best varsity material Sewanee has ever had on her basketball courts.

Mr. Hec Clark

Coached a freshman football team which carried away high honors. Clark teaches a hard driving attack, well spiced with passes. The victory over the Vandy Frosh made the usually taciturn Hec smile with the realization that his boys at last had broken the jinx.

REVIEW OF THE SEASON

A certain Mr. Babson \\ ho lives somewhere in New Enj^land. and who is one of the chief promulgators of the fallacy that figures never lie. if asked what sort of a football team Sewanee had last fall, would undoubtedly pull out a slip-stick and a percentage table, a com- pass, some dividers and a sheet or two of drawing paper, figure and draw a few pictures, and then smile up at you and reply that Sewanee had nothing to brag about. In making this statement the illustrious Mr. Babson would commit another blunde^- in the name of Mathematics, for despite figures, despite the loss of games that ought to have been won, Sewanee had one of the grittiest and pluckiest teams she has had in many years of plucky and gritty teams.

Sewanee, 34; Transylvania, 6

On September 23 Transylvania College journeyed to the Mountain imbued with the idea that they could defeat Dr. Bennett's Tigers. A passing game convinced them in the first few minutes of the fray that they would have to return another year if they would taste of victory. The Purple siege gun, Bdly Schoolfield, boomed pigskins to backs and ends for gains and more than occasional touchdowns. The Pioneers were unable to penetrate the Tiger defense when they were fortunate enough to have the ball in their possession. It was only late in the third quarter, when the valiant "Red-Dogs" were doing their stuff, that Elam's charges were able to score. There were no stars in this game. The entire squad played mid-season ball. If stars had to be picked, Young, Johnson and Schoolfield would deserve the honor.

Sewanee, ; Bryson, 7

September 30 was Friday the thirteenth for the Tiger. Bryson College traveled up from Fayetteville, and late in the third frame, one Mr. King snared a 2 5 -yard pass and fell un- believingly over the Tiger's goal line. The Bryson co-eds, all ten of them, went mad. It was in this game that Robert Nash, stellar end, was taken out with a broken ankle, that kept him off the field for the rest of the season. Sideline critics claim the game could have been saved if Bean had been crashed through the line. Certain it is that Bryson was unable to solve this enigma the few times it was pro- pounded. Instead of that, how'ever, the air was filled with flying pigskins which the Bryson- ites scrupled not to grab when opportunity offered. The day was a bitter one for Sewanee.

Undaunted by the Bryson fiasco, the Tiger hit the cinders for Dallas the next week-end. The Bengal arrived in the Texas Metropolis, and some hours later the Aggies dittoed. Sat- urday alternoon the Farmers opened the State Fair properly, from their point of view, by smothering a snarling and vicious Tiger under three touchdowns, Joel Hunt, journalistically styled diminutive captain and quarter, was too much for the Tiger. This Aggie star slipped and slithered his way through and around the Purple line almost at will during the first quarter. Later on his ambitions were held within reasonable bounds, but nevertheless there was entirely too much Joel Hunt in the game. He accounted for all three of the Aggie tallies, and then tried to kick the goals. Two of these three efforts were unsuccessful due to the somewhat brusque tactics of Messrs. Kinibrough and Allen; his third try went wide without help from Sewanee. The Tiger fouglit gamely against the Southwestern Champions, but the loss of Nash at one of the ends the week before, and the temporary loss of Captain Kimbrough at a tackle, put up a barrier that even the indomitable spirit of the Tiger could not hurdle. There were some thirteen or fourteen Tiger stars in this fray at various tmies. To nominate any man by name for the stellar role would be to show favoritism. Fighting against a hi_a%ier and more experienced opponent, an opponent since called the wonder team of the Southwest, slowed up materially by a strange and wet field, the Tennesseans put up a brilliant battle against Bible's doughty moleskin warriors, a battle by which they fought their way into the hearts of Texans and especially of Dallasites.

SEWANEE, 0; I'NIVERSITY OF ALABAMA, 24

Two weeks after the Ag'gie argument in E»allas. on October 22, to be exact, thi.* Tigers journeyed to Birmingham with high hopes of doing a little successful chanm 1 swimming. The Crimson Tide, howev< r. was turbulent in the first few minutes of that game, and thrice broke over the Purple Sea A\'all before the first round was more than half over. Some of the longest runs of the season in Southern football were made that afternoon, but none of them were registered by Sewanee. On the opening kick-off. in fact. Tuck. 'Bama end, received the pigskin and ducked and side-stepped his way to a touchdown. S7 yards in all. In the next seven minutes the Tide lashed out twice more and each time bit six additional tons of cement from the dike.

Once more in the second frame the Tide rose in imitation of a tidal wave. After that it trickled. Sewanee had stuck its thumb in the dike and held the waters in their bed. With the exception of the much lamented eight minutes the Mountaineers put up a wonderful exhibition of football. It was a dramatic afternoon. The huge red line could do little with the small Purple one. Fi'om the point of view of the stands there was pathos in that game, pathos and sublimity. The Tide l^it and chewed, rag.d and tore, but the valiant little Tigers, battered and weary, it is true, gave back as good as they received. And when the game was ended the Wadt-men knew the moleskin god had fought with them that day. They knew, and they were thankful.

Ole Miss visited the Mountain the following week, and their visit boosted them in the Conference percentage column. Fighting a jinx, Lily. Wilcox, Cohen and Knapp carried their team to a two touchdown victory over the Tiger. It was the first time the Mississippians have been able to twist the Tiger's tail. During the first half the Bennetteers played Vanderbilt football, and when the whistle for the rest period mounded the Mountaineers were leading 14-7. In the final periods Wiloox got himself one or two mentions for all-Southern on account of his uncanny ability to pierce a Purple line that had been practically impenetrable. Ole Miss scored first when Cohen culminated a 40-yard march down the field. Then the Tiger roared when Schoolfield got his hands on a triple pass for the second time and deposited the oval anent the final marker. Early in the second quarter Autin connected with a heave from Schoolfield and counted up to six. A few minutes later Smith nailed AVilcox behind his own goal line on a bad pass from center. This ended the Sewanee scoring. The aerial defensive displayed by the Tiger could have given von Rich thofen's famous Scarlet Circus tips that might have won the war for Kultur. Footballs were zooming all over the heavens in the first half of the game and most of them made safe landings. In the early rounds the Tiger was credited with nine first downs to the Mississippians five.

The final periods were better left buried in obscurity. Suffice it to say that Wilcox registered two tallies and booted all the extra points.

The Vols thought they could defeat Sewanee without the services of Witt and Elmore. Accordingly these two gentlemen were given a holiday on November 5; rather they were given a half holiday. Shortly after the opening whistle Dodson bucked his way to a talley. After this Sewanee got her hands on the ball and opened a baffling and brilliant passing attack that bewildered the undefeated Vols. Smith received a 42-yard pass, and a few plays later a pass to EsDorn netted a touchdown. Again in the same quarter EsDorn received a short pass which he was ambitious to turn into a long one. Figures show that he toted it 49 yards before the referee woke up to the fact that Tennessee was about to be headed and called the crimson comet out of bounds on the three-yard line. Johnson carried the oval over, and for the only time this fall the Vols were trailing the scoring column at the end of the half. Hereupon Witt and Elmore were rushed into an outfit and sent into the breach. Witt was hurt and Elmore lost a lot of his ambition. The Tiger made mistakes which cost them the ball and the Vols took advantage of breaks and turned them into touchdowns. The game ended as stated above. Again the Tiger had shown the South that Sewanee had a tepm but no reserve strength. EsDorn, Johnson, School field and Smith carried stellar honors in this game.

Sewaxee, 12; Tulane, 6

Although Tulane didn't rate a great deal last fall, she was doped to beat the Tiyer. She didn't. This victory in New Orleans was the only conference decision of the season. The Tiger, after scaring the daylights out of Tennessee, entrained for New Orleans with more confidence than they had had to date. EsDorn, brilliant Tiger wingman. drew first blood when h'^ carried the ball over the Tulane goal line in just two trips. The offensive was started from the Tiger 14 -yard line, and the only other play in the series that netted the Bennetteers six points was an incomplete pass from Schoolfield to Johnson. After this the Greenies went wild and tallied, and just before the half ended spring came to New Orleans when a little verdure cropped out on the Tiger one- yard stripe. An icy wind from the Tennessee Mountains laid its chilly hands on the Greenie backs—and the newspapers carried tales about the unseasonable frost. In the third quarter Smith received a pass from Schoolfield on the Tulane 41-yard line. After carrying it a few steps he dropped it. and Es'Dorn. though the pigskin was surrounded by anxious Greenies, plunged into the middle of the mess, scooped up the ball and stopped only when he had put the game in the Frigid-Air. It was a brilliant play on the crimson comet's part, and one which will probably be remembered in Praline-town for some years to come. After thi^ the Greenies realized the game was lost, and made only spasmodic and futile efforts to pull It out of the refrigerator. Tommy Toung snared a couple of passes that had Tulane bills of lading attached, and probably saved a tie by so doing. The stars of the game were EsDorn, Captain Kimbrough, once more himself after a leg injury; Schoolfield and Johnson, who did stellar work in backing up the line.

Sewanee, 6; Vanderbilt, 20

The Commodores donated a lot of money to the Sewanee Campaign Fund Turkey Day, Viut won a football game. As usual the McGuginites over-rated themselves and had a parade around Market Street in barrels until the next remittance from home. Although Spears was in the Commodore sick bay, one. Peck Owen, was found who played Spears' role to perfection. He did all that Spears could have done, and probably more. A heavy and slipp»ry field handicapped the bantamweight Tiger, but despite that fact the Bennetteers were determined to make a Commodore blood test. This they did in the last ciuart( r when Bean pU nged the ball over afti r Autin had r^^ceived a pass from Schoolfield and been forced out on the one-yard stripe. This was the only Tiger threat of the day. The rest of the afternoon belonged exclusively to the Commodores, although two gentlemen in the Tigf r line caused no little trouble to the ambitious McGuginite backs. These two were Messrs. Kimbrough and Bruton, who jjlugged up the right side of the Purple line and refused to budge. Of the Commodore tallies but one needs mention. It is typical of Commodore luck, also of Commodore training. Creson had receivi d a pass on the Tiger nine-yard line. Getting into his stride he stumbled and dropped the ball, and then recovered it over the goal line. That was not an easy thing to do at any time, and especially difficult was it with the ball in a part of the field where every Sewanee man on his fevt was watching it particularly closely. Kimbrough, Johnson and "Tommy" Young finished their football careers down in Nashvil'e last Turkey Day. They finished them in a blaze of glory, holding a Commodore team that had taken on and either beaten or tied the best the South had to off; r, to a respectable score.

FROSH TEAM

Tke Tigerette Season

Great things were prophesied for the Tiger yearlings hy bleacher experts; and great things came to pass, notably on Turkey Day, \vhen the Commodore Cubs were slightly damaged after

Boyd drop-kicked late in the last quarter.

The Purple plebes started off the season by losing to the Varsity, 12-0. Es'Dorn, flaming

Bennetteer wingman, staved off a possible tie by snaring a couple of passes and converting them into as many touchdowns.

As yet Clarke's charges had done nothing out of the ordinary. It was expected that they would be licked by the Varsity, and it was predicted that they would be pounded into submission by the Bryson Reserves, who, incidentally, had their starting positions reserved for them when they played Sewanee. With the exception of one man, the Bryson outfit that lost to the Tiger

Kittens was the same as that which chastised the adult Tigers. Several long runs by Boyd and

Lang gave the Tigerettes the Purple end of a 15-13 score. At the end of the first half the

Mountaineers were leading by 12 points; near the end of the game the Brysonites were clinging desperately to a one-point lead. It was at this juncture that Lang speared a long pass and deposited the oval in position for a field goal. Boyd cinched the two-point victory on the next play.

Shortly after this baptism of fire Clarke and Kent accompanied their charges up into the

Blue Grass State, where Centre brought up the best freshman team it has had in years, and gained a 19-7 decision. After the Sewanee game the Lieutenant-Colonels swore off military tactics for Ping-Pong. Barron snatched the ball out of the atmosphfre on the right side of his goal line, and Boyd kicked goal. It was in this game that Ware gave promise of future great- ness. He was good for consistent gains through any line for the rest of the season.

c_^^ 19 28 6^^

In the semi-final tie-up of the fall the Frosh took the Georgetown yearlings on, and although they produced a mighty ragged exhibition, they managed to eke out a 27-6 decision over the visitors. The Tigcrettes settled down appreciably in the two closing rounds of the fray, and succeeded in registering three tallies.

Turkey Day dawned, but that's all. The sun d dn't rise—it couldn't because it had looked down from the heavens the day before and decided that the day was to see the Commodore triumph over the Tiger. It could have shone with a clear conscience during the morning, however, for that morning was to see a Sewanee freshman team romp all over eleven Vandy rats; literally tumble all human obstruction here, there, and everywhere. The Clarke-Kent aggregation from the Tennessee uplands dazzled the city-dwellers by their brilliant running attack; by their snappy passes; as well as by their speed and sureness. The Commodore rodents were powerless before the Purple onslaught which time and again carried the Sewanee colors to within inches of the Black and Gold goal line, where something invariably went wrong, and the advance stopped. This was the weakness of the Tiger that day, and it was only through the educated toe of Charlie Boyd that the Purple was able to score in the last minutes of play.

A lone field goal, three meager points, separated the Kittens from a tie, and that though they had made 20 first downs to the Vandy yearling's one, and had hut once permitted the opposition within their 20-yard line.

On second thought, maybe that this is why the sun didn't shine that morning.

Sewanee had one of the best freshman teams she has had. This outfit reminded old-timers of the days when Beatty, Gooch, Haynes, Mahoney and others were wearing the Purple for their first season. It brought cheer to the hearts of Tiger fans and smiles to their faces. Joy- fully they thought of what the Mountain ought to produce in a year or two.

To name stars would be to show favoritism. Although there was much individual brilliance shown in the ranks of the freshman players last fall, team play was the factor that carried them through to a successful finish; team play combined with spirit.

Review of the Varsity Season

Hardly had the Tiger basketeers answered the call of the court, when the gymnasium was totally de- stroyed by a $13,000 conflagration. Set back at an

earl\- stage, the aspirants for honors had to resort to haphazard practice in the old gym, and through the courtesy of the Winchester and Decherd schools, part practice was done at night on their courts. Un- daunted by the handicap, Coach Barnes shaped his team as best as possible for the season.

The Tiger had his first real meal at home, and

the meat was ancient thorn-in-the-fle:h, Bryson. It was a nip and tuck affair, with many trials for shots but fewer goals. Toward the end of the game, Capt. \\'illiams and Frizzelle opened up, which gave the Purple a 25-13 win. \n a heartrending contest, Sewanee suffered defeat at the hands of the Commodores at Nashville. The Purple warriors were leading when Bruton, Frizzelle, and Smith were retired from the game on personal fouls. The three-point lead was then over- come by Vandy, but not without a stubborn fight on the part of the Tigers. The final count was 33-26. Frizzelle played his usual dependable game, scoring nine points and showing remarkable defensive \vork. January 26 marked the resumption of athletic relations with the University of Chattanooga, when the Tiger went over to play the Moccasins. The contest was marked by the appearance of a fast

Moccasin team that covered all parts of the floor at

all times. The final whistle found our opponents leading, 33-21. A return game was played with Bryson, in which Sewanee met an improved team. Suffering the loss of practices, the Sewanee boys had no team work, and went do^vn by a 16-15 no;.e-out. A road trip marked the closing games of the season. At Knoxville the llniversity of Tennessee boys were surprised after leading Sewanee, ii-o, for a

<^^-& 19 28 G-— c^^s THE CAP AND GOWN S~V^7

long while. In the first half, the Vols were still leading six points, but in the last frame the Purple came from behind to win, +0-31. Chesty Bruton was the meteor for the Mountain Quint. The team journeyed on to Black:4iurg, Va., where they met V. P. I. in one of the poorest contests of the year. The first part of the game was particularly sluggish, while the last half might have passed as a basketball scrimmage. The Tiger was ensnared for a 34-15 loss. Charlottesville was the next stop-over, when the

Tigers played the University of Virginia. The first half was marked by real playing on the part of both teams. The remainder of the game was just an opportunity for the Cavaliers to show their visitors how they could sink baskets from any angle on the court. The comedy ended 41-28 for Virginia. This contest brought out the hitherto hidden talents of Thigpen, who gave much promise throughout the rest of the season of being a future luminary. More punishment was in store at Lexington. Dur- ing the first fifteen minutes, the game was 14-12. Then the Washington and Lee boys settled down to work to end the game, 52-30. The game with V. M. L, a night later, marked the end of the season as well as the trip. In this 42-21 defeat, the Tigers were showing signs of fatigue.

Considering the difficulties of the year, the small sijuad who remained out for practice did remarkable things. There was no scrimmage opposition, for rarely did the frosh get to play their elder brothers.

With little chance for practice, Barnes made a creditable showing with his material. Captain Williams was a dependable center and forward, and on the Virginia trip he gained a reputation as a "bender-back," whatever that may be. "Big John" Bruton played good barketball throughout the entire season. Too much credit cannot be given to the rest of the boys, who worked hard and played steady games. Chances for a winner next year are extremely bright, with a flashy frosh squad playing varsitv ball.

Frosh Basketball

A little thing like a fire did not bother the Frosh basketball aggregation, and long before the season was over, Sewanee

knew that the quint of the Class of '3 1 was the best Frosh out-

fit that had ever represented the University.

Beginning the season with practices against the Varsity these

rangy yearlings showed themselves ready for foreign foes. Piper and Joe Bean, the lesser of the Frijole Twins, were the safe- guards of the all-victorious season. Mitchell held the center position, and Yates, of scholarly reputation, and Charlie Bar-

ron were quite Forward in making baskets. St. Andrews was swamped early in the season 52-32, and four days later the Frosh five took the Chattanooga Little Moccasins into camp by a 34-19 tally. At Decherd the next week, Joe Bean led

the fight which gave Decherd High the little end of the 29-15

score. The last tilt of the season was with the Decherd town team, and the least said about the score, the more the Decherd-

ites will appreciate it. All needed for more victories was a longer schedule.

Besides the above mentioned players. Sterling, Ware, and

Harrison were well in the race. It v^'ould be difficult to pick stars from such well-groomed material, but special mention must be given to Mitchell, Yates, and Piper for beautiful action throughout the season.

Yes, sir, there v\'ill be a "Greater Sewanee' basketball team next year.

Review of Varsity Track

Rain! Rain! Rain! That is the keynote to the track season. With all inducements that make a track man feel like giving up the sport, the Tigers went through a season that had no few colorful spots For instance there was Aut'n, the fast-stepping Louisianian, who time and again came to the front with four first places. Then there was Schoolfield who went into the air twelve feet three and one-eighth inches to break his own and Sewanee's record in the pole vault. Nor must we pass up Bill Cravens, who came into his true form this year in the high hurdles and who leaves us hopes of better next season. Then last, but certainly not least, the season uncovered Freshman tracksters in years to come. Among the first year men to show up well were fJarron, Foster, Hren'zer, Key^vorth, Eby, Sayles and Spencer.

Outlaws Wix ix Ixterdorm Meet

The interdormitory meet marked the formal opening of the season. The Outlaws, composed of Miller, Mag- nolia, and the Mountain at large, came through in the last minute to defeat the Inn boys, 36-35' j. Hoffman tracked close behind with 25. As never before S:^- \vanee spectators saw first year men place again and again. With the exception of Bill Cravens, none of the old men did anything exceptional. No I'ttle amount of praise can be given to Barron, Foster, Brenizer, Key- worth, and Bacon.

M.ARVviLLE Wins in Close Count

In one of the most thrilling meets of the season, Se- wanee lost to Maryville College 63;j-53'_i. The Tig- er's one man track team. Jack Autin, came through with four first places, the century, 220 yards, low hurdles, and the broad jump. I^esides this the speedy Louisianian came with'n a fraction of an inch of giving Sewanee the rela\' and tying the score. Bill Crav- ens and Schoolfield were up to their usual form. Crav- ens doing one of the prettiest quarters in the relay that has been seen for some time on the local track. Among other startling surprises, R. Bean was uncovered as a three letter man when he captured first in the shot and discus. The meet as a whole was fast considering \veather cond'tions. Sewanee showed her weakness in the middle and long distance events.

Volunteers T.ake Next Du.^l

The Tiger entertained the University of Tennessee track men the follo\^i^g Saturda\', a tlay on which Se- wanee kept holiday for a superior Tennessee team.

Autin won his usual dashes, and came in second to Duvie Cravens in the low hurdles. Bill Cravens was Sewanee's next hope. He took the high hurdles, and ran a close second in the quarter. Bean, our new field star, came in front with the discus and hurled the jave- lin for a second place. No one man of Tennessee came ihrough with more than ten points, but all were sure placers. The result was 66-46.

Alabama Takes Advantage

The coaches excursioned to Tuscaloosa with a mere ten men to take part against the University of Ala- bama. The light-footed Cravens brothers were unable to make the trip, due to injuries which kept them out of competition during the remainder of the season. Crippled in this way Sewanee was not expected to capture first honors. Even Autin's twenty points were unable to keep the Tiger in the running, and he went down to a 65-48 score.

SCHOOLFIELD VaULTS TO NeW HeIGHTS

Three da>s later the Sewanee team invited Vander- bilt to their mountain lair. Here it was that the flaxen haired Schoolfield shot himself through the air and over the bar at 12 feet, three and an eighth inches to break his own and the Sewanee pole vault record. After he had been marked a sure winner, Autin spilled in the hurdles and came in second, but Freyer saved the race dashing in ahead to win his letter. Vander- bilt's team was just too strong as the 72-40 tally indi- cated.

Wildcat T.^^mes the Tiger

That week-end the Tiger team journeyed up to Lex- ington to meet the University of Kentucky. The 70-42 defeat was one in which broken records featured. Gess of Kentucky broke the conference record b\' dashing around the track a couple of times in one minute, fifty-six and one-tenth seconds. Wildcat stars hung up new marks for their college in the quarter mile and shot heave. In some events our boys did very creditable work, Schoolfield taking the vault with ease; Bean won the discus, and Martino went over the bar for first in the high jump.

The Coxferexce Meet

Autin and Martino placed fourth in their respective events at the meet in Birmingham. Such speed and muscle had never before been displayed in the South, and ten records fell before the sharpshooting of the Dixie stars. That the Tigers were not closer to the tape may be explained by the phenomenal records hung up in the hurdles and jump.

Golf

The growing national interest in the game of golf has been felt on the Mountain, and for the last few years there have been more aspirants for the golf team. This year Capt. "Eckie" Williams called out his men as soon as the first warm spell loosened up the swing of the golfers. But even in golf, the weather man played an important role.

On April 2 1, the team went down to Birmingham to play a scheduled 36-hole match, but the morning's encounter was rained out. In the play of the afternoon Sewanee lost 16-1. Williams, Edwards, McFadden, and Buddie Young went to Nashville the next

Saturday to play Vandy. Edwards and Williams scored eleven points in the 23-11 defeat.

On May 7, "Eckie" took his boys to Chattanooga to meet the University of Georgia. Once mere the playing of the captain and Edwards was the bright spot for Sewanee. But the Georgians, who were later crowned Conference Champions, took the count of the Tigers, 13-5.

When the call for entries in the Conference Meet came, there was little doubt as to the team which would represent Sewanee. Edwards was eliminated by the well known Mr. Watts Gunn, 2-1. Williams played excellent golf to force his way to the semi-finals. One of the champion Georgians took the count of "E. Q.", beating him on the twentieth hole of a gruelling match.

As a tribute to the Sewanee captain, both to his ability to play the game and to his capability manifested throughout the year, the Southern Conference golfers chose him as their president for the next year. Tennis

Coach Bruton deserves worlds of credit for his untiring efforts shown during the tennis season. It was a fight between him and Jupe Pluvius throughout the spring, and it is no wonder that the Sewanee racqueteers did not show better form.

The first tilt, scheduled with Georgia Tech, was rained out. A pilgrimage to Chattanooga resulted in a 5-1 loss to the University of Chattanooga Moccasins. The doubles play of Allen and Finlay featured Sewanee's only win. The Chattanooga boys met an improved team when they came to the Mountain.

But the score went against us 4-2. Ware's brilliant playing for a victory in three hard sets, together with the doubles playing of Finlay and Allen accounted for victories. Fighting to no avail against the brilliant net work of the players of Birmingham- Southern, the Tiger went down 6-0. Seldom has such tennis been seen on the local courts.

As a reward for faithful playing. Coach Bruton took four of his men to the Con-

ference meet at New Orleans. Although they played at their top speed in the Cres- cent City, our team was eliminated.

Interfraternity Atkletics

"Mike" Bennett was right! The spirit of intra-mural athletics is more than a dream. Greek has met Greek; dormitory vies with dorm. As a result of the system worked out by the Tiger mentor, the dreary days after the Christmas vacation turned out to be fairly interesting.

Handball Introduced; Deltas Win

For the first time, handball played its part as a game for the Greeks. The weaker teams were eliminated till only the Deltas, Non-Frats, Kappa Sigs and Phis were left. In the finals the midget team of the Deltas, Freyer and Berry, managed to outpoint the hefty pair of the Phis, Cain and Pearce. Later during the winter an open meet was held which was captured by Coaches Cubbage and Barnes.

Phis Awarded Basketball Cup

AVhen the basketball tournament had just gotten under way something had to hap- pen. The loss of the gym made the second half of the tourney impossible. However, it was decided to award the cup to the team that had the clearest record and the most victories. There is no doubt that the winner was well chosen, for the Phi Delts went through the season with a string of victories and no defeats.

Heated Contests in Baseball

Although the season got off to a slow start, the baseball organizations have shown some speed in the last games of the year. The Phis and Sigma Nus were quickly eliminated by the Kappa Phi- Non-Frat combination. The Fijis moved up a bracket on the K. A.'s and earned a right to play the combination. The A. T. O.'s lost two to the S. A. E.'s, but came back in the next three to make themselves eligible in the semi-finals against the Deltas, who had defeated the Bengals and the Kappa Sigs. The A. T. O.'s and the Phi Gams survived the semi-finals, and as we go to press, opinion of the mountain is divided as to which team will win the league championship. The season showed some fine playing on the part of many players. Special credit must be given to Beckwith, Devall, Sanderson, Myers, Kennedy, Snowden, Frizzelle, Lang, Hawkins, Gamble, Duffy, and the Hoppen brothers.

Track. Outlook

Although the interfrat track meet had not been held at this writing, there seemed to be a fair chance of doping out the winners in the several events. The Fijis are picked to go one-two in the weights. Autin should lead Foster to the tape in the short dashes, and in the quarter the field is free. Eby promises to give the boys a race in all of the long events. The hurdles depend on the Cravens boys, and there is a good chance on dark horses being victorious. The broad jump is hard to dope out, and we predict that Lang will give Manuel plenty to worry about in the high jump. The vault is a cinch for the blond beauty. The winners of the meet we do not dare to pick. Four places count, and the small point men will decide the contest.

Tne Pan-Hellemc Council

^^^^^HE Pan-Hellenic Council has for its object the promotion of ^ M \ better interfraternity relations and the government of frater- ^^^^^ nity activities. Its membership consists of two representatives from each of the national Greek letter societies.

The Council issues rules governing rushing of njw men and, i;i car.es

of violation of these regulations, acts as a court to try the offending

fraternity or individual. It is significant to note that there have been no cases of violation of Pan-Hellenic rules during the past four ycarr. Much favorable comment on the Sewanee system of rushing has been

heard from various universities in the South, and in som; cases the plans adopted by Sewanee Pan-Hellenic in 1924 have been copied by neigh- boring schools.

The second Sunday after the opening of the school year is usually designated by Pan-Hellenic as Pledge Day. At this time men who

have received invitations to join fraternities go to the house of their choice to be welcomed by their future brothers.

Officers of Pan-Hellenic Council for the year 1927-1928 were: W. S. Turner, president, and John Snowden, secretary.

Tne Kappa Pni Fraternity

The Kappa Phi Fraternity was organized by a small group of men early in the Fall of 1927. A few promising Freshmen were pledged, and work was begun to make the organization stable and unified. A house was rented and furnished, and the necessary recognition of the

University and of Pan-Hellenic was secured.

Kappa Phi wishes to give to their members the pleasures and ad-

vantages of a fraternal spirit, and at the same time to build up an organization worthy of, and representative of, Sewanee and her high

ideals. The ultimate goal of the fraternity is a chapter in some national

of high rating.

Alpha Phi Epsilon is an honorary fraternity of forensic and literary activity. Membership is limited to Gownsmen who have shown proficiency in these fields. The Chapter holds monthly meetings at which time members discuss various phases of national liTe. The chief study of the past year has been devoted to lives and works of prominent American poets. The active roll taken by the faculty members of the fraternity was a feature of the year's work.

The year 1927-28 has been one of the best in the history of the mother chapter of Sigma Upsilon, national literary fraternity. Although the life of Sopherim \vas nil during the first term, activities were renewed \v!th vigor in January, and as a result several new men were admitted into membership. The ne\vl_\' elected men were chosen from students in the Order of (Jownsmen who were interested in Literary work and had shown proof of their ability. What most members consider the outstanding work of the year was the publi- cat'on, in co-operation with Dr. Knickerbocker and other friends, of the poems of L. Archibald Douglass. Mr. Douglass, who was a member of the fraternity, died during the second term. His works showed signs of marked ability, and they had received favorable comment not only from his brothers in Sopherim, but from prominent men in the literary world.

Members of the Faculty have addressed the Society at regular intervals. Round table discussion has added to the value of the meetings. To foster interest in the maintenance of scholarship and study, the Society awarded a cup to the fraternal group having the best average for one term.

The society of Neograph was founded at Sewanee in 1902. Its purpose is to encourage originality in writing and thinking, and to afford its members practice in these. Neograph continued and flourished from 1902 to 1920, when it was allowed to decline, and was dormant

for two years. In the year 1922-1923 the society was revived by those members of Sopherim who were alumni of Neograph. The society holds bi-monthly meetings at which time original papers are submitted by the members.

Tne Debating Season

The opening of the past debating season found the old men, pictured above, back and prepared to resume their duties. In addition to these there were found many new men possessing forensic ability, among whom Trichel and McGehee were outstanding. Debates were scheduled with Northwestern, Tennessee, Tulane, Mississippi, and other universities. Several of these were no deci-

sion affairs, while victories were gained over Tulane and Mississippi. In these debates most of the work was done by the new men since many of the old men were forced to remain idle because of other

activities.

This year Major MacKellar opened up a new field in debating

in that, instead of carrying on extension debates with Vanderbilt as

has been customary, he sent his own teams to many of the little

towns in Middle Tennessee. This plan, according to all reports, has

proved a great success and is much more satisfactory than were the old extension debates.

Ideality Versus Reality

There never has been an editor who does not think that his bool; will be a masterpiece of art. E%'en the most timid of col ege editors has an inkling that he can produce something that can make a "Lucky Bag," a 'Tomb," or the biggest of yearbooks look like a fadeout. God knows h^w he intends to fashion such a book on the budget with which he usually works. But for the first few months he ha:, visions and he dreams dreams; nothing is too good for the "dear student body."

Gradually, as he works with the "dear students," he begins to realize that somewhere there is a miscalculation! When the photographer comes, no one is ever ready to have his picture made. When a call is sent out for pictures, maybe four or five will be turned in to the Editor. And the organizations! Evidently they have a notion that engravings and pages are given to them because of their campus importance. So with page fees unpaid and sitting fees wilfully forgotten, the planned budget becomes a thing of dreams. But still "ye Editor" has hope. In the sale of the books there can be proceeds enough to meet the expense of enlarged plans. But alas! The students do not realize that a book published by them really needs their loyal support. And so those roseate plans of the bygone months are discarded. The editor does his best with whatever he can secure.

Well, now you have the Annual editorial gripe! If the Cap and Gown is ever to become

a truly greater book, it will be necessary for the student body to give it whole-hearted support.

Good books can not be planned when the budget is empty. We have done our best with what we have, and we hope that you will enjoy the 1928 Cap and Goivn. We have tried hard to make it better than its predecessors. But it has scarcely approached our own views of what we wished it to be. The work of the staff has been unusually faithful, quite surprisingly so indeed. Byrom Dickens proved that he was willing to become the Editor's office dog in order to succeed him in '29. Hines and Stewart labored with the activity blanks trying to make real activities out of the numerous affairs listed. Joe Earnest and his humor staff have contributed with a section which will remain invincible for many years. Sherwood's drawings fulfilled demands. Tom Dibble showed us a few tricks in the game of advertising, which helped a lot. And when our

editorial capabilities failed us, Harry Random was handy with advice from an old hand at the game. The rest of the staff was capable, too, and to all of them we extend deepest appreciation.

Well! the job is over but the "memory lingers on.'

Publications at Sewanee

M-fc_ '"^ SEWANEE REVIEW, the oldest periodical of its kind in America, has rendered since 1892 a distinctive I ^^^^^ service to Southern letters. At a time when the diverse influences in literary expression are culminating in schools most

truly Southern, the Review serves the world as a channel unbiased by sectional prejudice, influenced only by broad scholarship and truth.

The Seivanee Purple, published by the Athletic Board of Con-

trol, is the weekly organ of the student body and alumni of the

University. Ranking high in point of editorial makeup and policy among the better known Southern publications, the Purple serves

as an indispensable factor in the life of the Mountain.

The Cap and Gown, published annually by a management

elected from the Order of Gownsmen, has attained to a distinguished level among college yearbooks. Lapsing in 1925, the

annual was refounded by members of the student body interested in

the perpetuation of this influence at Sewanee, and has since been

eminently successful in the field of publications.

The mountain Goat, founded in 1925 by Coleman Harwell and John Whitaker, has developed into an integral part of the pub- lication body at Sewanee. Under the able editorship of Joe Earnest,

the Goat has this year developed into a most significant member of that group of better known Southern humorous magazines which are comparable to the productions of the East and Northwest. The youngest of the Sewanee family of pens and types, the Goat

promises to increase its popularity and influence on the Mountain.

^^^^^IIVIE was on the purple hill when the literary societies were ^ \ the great powers of Sewanee. According to a contemporary ^^^^^ of these halcyon days, a Sewanee man owed allegiance first to Sewanee, second to his literary society, and third to his fraternity. To become a prominent figure in either one of these groups of great intel- lects was to win fame; to be named as medalist in Commencement fes- tivities was to be dubbed an All-Southern brain. For two years there has been one literary society on the Mountain, and a second group functioning at Commencement under the nam; of Pi Omega. The men from this pseudo organization have been allowed to walk off with medals, after a year spent in apathy as far as meetings would indicate. Sigma Epsilon has maintained a high standard of regularity, but have allowed Pi Omega to continue to compete in the

Commencement contests. The moral is plain : under the existing con-

ditions, no genuine competition can take place between the two societies.

In order to rectify this situation, it becomes embryonic Pi Omegans to organize and to establish an efficient working basis for carrying on the work of the society. Then the literary activities of the Mountain may be said to be on a sound foundation. Until then, Commencement con-

test will be sheer pretense.

The medals awarded for participation in the society activities at

Commencement are the Overton Lea, Jr., medal for Oratory; the Knight medal for Declamation; the Inter-Society prize for Essay; the

Washington medal for Essay ; and the Jemison medal for Debate. With

so high a stimulus for worthwhile accomplishment, there is no reason

why the literary societies should not fill an important place in the life of the University.

The Purple Masque Dramatic Club, comparatively a new organization on the mountain, has developed into one of the most outstanding clubs on the campus this year. Under the able direction of Thomas Dudney, Purple Masque presented three splendid offerings during the season. The year opened with the presentation of "Lightnin'," in which Vet Wood played the stellar role. "Dulcy" was given during the second term, Tony Griswold playing the title role. The third play, A. A. Milne's "The Dover Road," was produced at commencement time.

Presenting an entirely new type of program, the Sewanee Glee Club of 192S toured through the states of Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Tennessee. In each city where the club appeared, only the highest of praise was to be heard for the efforts of the organization. The reviewer in the Birmingliam News said: "The program offered by the boys from the Tennessee mountains, like a certain popular soft drink, seemed to hit the spot."

Since early last fall. Director Dudney worked unceasingly to build up a program different from the ordinary routine of college glee clubs which would satisfy even the most discriminating person. His new idea of presentation met with such success that he hopes to enlarge upon it next year. 162

Syncopation de-luxe was the motto to which the Sewanee organization of this year certainly lived up. Their playing was the feature of the Glee Club's tour; applause keeping them on the stage for extra bursts of throbbing and pulsating music. Jack Walthour, with his presentation of "Banjovial Jack," merited the name given him of the "best collegiate banjo player heard in the South this year." Moore's ivory knocking was encored again and again. But to limit the work of the Syncopaters to soloists is to forget the perfect unison which really made the orchestra the music-playing group it was.

Sewanee dances have become a byword among the college people of the South.

Each \ear finds an increasing number of visitors who come to see the mountain at its gayest. And this year was the peak; more girls, prettier girls, better music, better

dances, and now a better reputation to live up to. So well did Charlie Trout's Orchestra preside over the Thanksgiving Dances that the Clubs demanded his return for Easter. And Charlie showed his appreciation by giving Sewanee a livelier and jazzier program of dance music than has ever been heard before on the mountain.

Commencement brought diplomas, the family, the sweetheart—but best of all, came Blue Steel. These non-pareil melod>'-makers carried us along into a dream- land of romance, and when we awoke our year was only a memory.

The following young ladies were selected by a Commit- tee composed of the Annual Board and the German Club Officers. We feel that their selection marks them as representative of the types of girls who attend our dances, and most certainly of the beauty that comes to Sewanee during the Dream Days throughout the vear.

SOUTH CAROLINA CLUB

To the South Carolina Club and the spirit it em- bodies! We see in this group the impersonation of the Sewanee gentleman while demonstrating that elusive

quality known as the Sewanee "Spirit," the spirit of aban- don, the quality of irresponsibility, the thoughtlessness

for propriety that makes the life of an editor so unper- turbed and calm. So to the Spirit of the Carolinians

is the Humor Section dedicated; also to those organizations and persons who would not pay their fees; and

lastly to the faculty, whom we have omitted from this section on special request. "

(From a Freshman s Uiary)

September 23—ALPHA Tau OmeGA: I was over at the A. T. O. house tonight. It looks like a church, and when I said that to one of the boys, he replied, "It should be; we are the cleanest bunch of boys on the campus." And to spoil this illusion, some one introduced me to Nellie Barr, who used the line about the number of preachers they have had on their rolls, and the present number of faculty members. All told, they have the cream of the campus, so he said, as I no- ticed Skeeter Webb and Dave Rotrofif (and I mustn't forget Squat) on the oppo- site side of the room. I met another Freshman over there by the name of Eustis.

At least, I suppose he's a Freshman. He acts that way on the campus. The A. T. O.'s told me the Deltas would pledge anyone. Think I'll go A. T. O. Nellie is so good to Freshmen, and we should have a straw with the faculty.

September 24—SiGMA ALPHA EpsilON: Was dragged by an S. A. E. to visit their lodge which they say is the first S. A. E. house still standing. It looks it, especially in the poolroom. Why don't they get some of the cobwebs down? Bill

Turner shot me a long line, and Tupper, who is an all round attractive boy, though rather quiet, finished with me. John Bruton didn't have much to say, but did condescend to sit by the fire and let me look at him. Tony Griswold was having a row with one of his brothers—no, I believe it was with several of them. Bur- rows told me he himself was the social light of the fraternity, and was already beginning to be quite prominent. Wonder if that fellow Cann I met is one of the boys? Anyway, I think I'll join S. A. E. Their house will be cozy with its open fireplace on these cold wintry nights.

September 25—Kappa Sigma : Was at the Kappa Sigma house tonight. While some of the brothers were having a pillow fight jumping on the divan and on top of tables, others were having a game of touch football. Tyler told me that they would have lots of Phi Betes this year, he himself and Oney not quite making it, however. Cap and Gown has been in their hands up to this year, and they intend to have it this year also. The quality of their chapters over the United States was stressed. Kappa Sigma goes Sigma Nu one better, so they say. It has two sons of a Bishop in its membership. Sorry I didn't get to meet the Green boys.

I'll go Kappa Sig. Their house is so near Magnolia.

September 26—Phi Delta ThetA: The Phis were very kind to me tonight. We couldn't play pool, but then, they have a nice victrola, and they showed me the memory book. I was told that Tommy Young was the biggest man on the Campus, and when I told them that the A. T. O.'s said the same of Herbert Eustis, they laughed and said, "You can't believe a word those fellows say." I met Tommy, who is O. K., and he introduced to me another Young called Buddy, this one quite supercilious. I asked Tommy if Buddy was his brother, and Tommy blushed and denied it. The funny shouts heard in the basement which couldn't be calmed were attributed to a guy named Mallory, who was feeling a bit indis- posed. Phi Delta Theta for me. They have culture, and are acquiring more Sleepy Pearce and the Winston brothers.

September 27—DELTA Tau Delta: Bill Craig drove me to the Delta house tonight. Someone told me I'd never get a ride in his car unless I was a Delt. One of the brothers told me that they might not be so good locally now, but one should think of the national reputation. Freyer said soon afterwards that they might not be so good nationally but just look at the local reputation. They have

some athletic cups on the mantelpiece, memories of years that used to be. I was told not to believe a thing the A. T. O.'s said about the Deltas. Some one brought in sandwiches made in their own kitchen, which they said was so nice, and then they took me to see it. Two of the brothers were passed out under the kitchen table. Think I'll go Delta. The pansy is so pretty. — September 28 Kappa ALPHA : Was out of breath walking to the K. A. house.

They say it's a sort of country club, and takes in only the best looking boys, like Hope and Pete Young. When I told some of the boys about the quality of chap-

ters the Kappa Sigs said they had, some K. A. said it must have been quantity they mentioned instead of quality. All the K. A.'s imitate their leader, Duvy Cravens, and naturally are quite active in various lines of work, including scholarship. Though few in number, they are the boys who do things on the Mountain. Must write home tonight to tell the folks that I've decided to join K. A.

September 2g—Phi Gamma DelTA: After feeding me at Jim's some of the Phi Gams took me to their lodge. The Fijis pride themselves on the "He Men" they have—no weaklings for them. They try to be as mean as Horrible Boyd looks to be. Every Easter they have a pig dinner, having visiting Fijis at the dances and at Magnolia at no expense whatever. They have a grand piano and an electric orthophonic. I want to go Phi Gamma Delta where Men are Men.

September ^0—SigmaNU: Ed Brailsford carried me out to the Sigma Nu house, getting very confidential with me on the way there. They showed me all about the house, including the gifts the boys had made. Every brother is out for some activity. For instance, Maxon is on the Glee Club, not that he can sing, but he got there through his ability to squirm into everything. Squeak is not so bad, they say, as he is painted. Dogface Weaver and Charlie Thomas are the big birds out there. Charlie told us a nice, pure little fairy story, and told us to run along to bed. I've finally decided that I'll go Sigma Nu. However, I don't like the way the boys dance together at the house.

October I : Today is pledge day, and I didn't receive any bids except one from the Bengals, which is the best bunch, after all. Hurray! I'm going over to their house now. Ask any freshman if Tupper isn't a golfer. He is always working on the green.

"Mr. Montgomery, why don't you get a bumper

and extra tire for your Ford?"

As a fitting culmination of all its yearly activities,

the Sewanee Straw Club held its annual straw party

"Aren't Hueling and Kirk thick?"

"Yes, each one of them is."

"Say, Bruton, we want to elect you to membership

in an organization. Will you accept?"

what Sewanee Stands for

THE EDUCATION OF THE WHOLE MAN—

His BODY, in a physical environment and training almost

ideal.

His MIND, through courses in a scientifically correct curri-

culum, and through contact with a faculty strong in scholar-

ship and personality.

His CHARACTER, through the constant influence of

Christianity as expounded and exemplified in the life of the

University Community.

THE MAKING OF A CITIZEN—

In theory, through the influence of that ideal of patnoticism

which we call the Sewanee Spirit.

In practice, through the dynamic living as a citizen in a com-

munity of which the student body constitutes the citizenship.
