This board is elected by the Board of Trustees and consists of three bishops, three presbyters and nine laymen. The chancellor and vice-chancellor also serve ex-ofhcio. It has all the powers of, and acts for, the Board of Trustees when that body is not in session. Its functions are largely financial, but may extend to any phase of the university interests. Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor Chancellor Bishop Thomas F. Gailor, throughout his long connection with the univer- sity, has taken an active part in its development, and to a large extent has moulded its sentiments and traditions. Among his varied activities have been the laying of the cornerstone of Wash Hall in 1890, and that of Thompson Hall, the Union, a few years later. He also has written the Sewanee Hymn and has composed several beautiful Sewanee Apostrophes. In 1882 he was appointed professor of ecclesiastical history and in the next year chaplain of the university. He continued in these positions until 1890, when he was made vice- chancellor, serving for three years. In 1908 he was elected chancellor, and has continued uninterruptedly in this place for the past twenty-two years. Bishop Gailor has likewise been active in the general work of the church during this period. He was made a deacon in 1879 and a priest the next year. In 1898 he succeeded to the bishopric of Tennessee on the death of Bishop Quintard. Since then he has been chairman of the House of Bishops, presiding bishop and president of the National Council. He is again attending the Lam- beth Conference in England this spring and summer. He holds the following degrees: A.B. and A.M., Racine College; S.T.B. and S.T.D., General Theological Seminary; S.T.D., Columbia; D.D., Trinity, University of the South, and Oxford; LL.D., Oglethorpe. Dr. B. F. Finney I ice-Chan cellar Dr. B. F. Finney was first associated with Sewanee as a student in 1885. After graduating from Virginia Polytechnic Institute at Blacksburg and engaging in private business for some years, he was made vice-chancellor of the university in 1922. During these eight years as vice-chancellor Dr. Finney, or "Uncle Ben," as he is affectionately called by the students, has been able to liquidate the debts of the university and secure an endowment which easily removes the possibility of financial trouble in the future. He has likewise been responsible for much material development on the mountain—three new dormitories, including the new Tuckaway Inn, have been constructed and improvements have been made in the athletic field house and Sewanee Military Academy. Throughout his entire life Dr. Finney has been interested and active in church and educational work. Before coming to Sewanee he devoted much time to the Brotherhood of St. Andrews, of which organization he has been secretary and vice- president. In 1 9 13 he was elected to the Board of Regents of the University and at the present time is a trustee of St. Katherine's, a girls' school at Bolivar, Term., and also the executive head of the Board of Trustees of Columbia Institute, a girls' pre- paratory school at Columbia, Term. Both of these institutions are connected with the Episcopal Church. In recognition of his valuable services, he was given the hon- orary degree of LL.D. from Hobart College, Geneva, New York. mg Dr. George M. Baker Dean Dr. Baker has spent his entire life in educational work (with the exception of several years during which he was connected with the American expeditionary force in France). He graduated from Yale University in 1900, obtaining his Ph.D. degree from that institution a few years later. For nine years he was an instructor of German at Yale, after which he became head of the German Department at the William Penn Charter School, Philadelphia. During this period he also studied at the Universities of Berlin and Munich. Dr. Baker came to Sewanee in 19 17 as professor of Germanic languages and was appointed dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1920. During the ten years he has held this position the requirements for entrance, classroom work and degrees have been raised considerably, the number of transfer students has been reduced and the general scholastic tone of the college has been improved. During the war Dr. Baker was connected with the General Staff College of the American expeditionary force in France, later seeing general staff duty in Germany with the army of occupation. He is well known as a student of Germanic literature, being the editor of "Ger- man Stories" and Kleist's "Prinz von Hotnnurg." He has also contributed articles to the "Journal of Germanic Philology," "Modern Philology," the "Sewanee Re^ view" and "Modern Language Notes." Because of his knowledge of international affairs, Dr. Baker was sent to Geneva by the Carnegie Institute for International Peace in 1927 for the purpose of studying the organization of the League of Nations, World Court and other institutions. ege of Arts and Sciences Brigadier General James Postell Jervey Henry Markley Gass (United States Army.

These ladies not only create a certain social dignity, but take a personal interest in the men with whom they come in contact, ministering to their spiritual and physical needs, and making an atmosphere more home like and pleasant. On May 5th Mrs. Fannie Preston died at Sewanee in her fifty- second year as a matron and in the ninety-sixth year of her life. She was indeed the mother of hundreds of Sewanee men who had come within her care and friendship, and her passing is a real loss to the mountain.

Daley St. Luke's The proctors of the university are chosen from the outstanding mem- bers of the Order of Gownsmen by the vice-chancellor. Their duty con- sists in maintaining discipline, both in their respective dormitories and on the campus. It will be seen that in this instance Sewanee has departed from the Oxford tradition by making its proctors members of the stu- dent body. Thomas Parker Seniors Richard Leroy Sturcis, Jr Seniors Charles C. Chadbourn Juniors Johx M. Ezzell Juniors G. Mallory Buford Sopliomores William Oscar Lindholm Freshmen Francis D. Daley Tlieologs The Honor Council consists of two seniors, two juniors, one sopho- more and one freshman from the college and one member of the Theo- logical School. Before this body all infringements of the honor system are brought, and it passes judgment upon the cases, having the power to acquit or to punish. This year there was considerable agitation concerning the honor system, and a vote was taken of the entire student body to determine whether it should be abolished, modified or kept in its present form. Only two in the entire student body voted to do away with it; the majority voted to retain the system unchanged. m Student Vestry The Rev. Mr. Moultrie Guerrv Cliaflain Thomas Parker Senior Warden David Yates Junior Warden Francis M. Thigpen Treasurer Frank Fortune Secretary Charles H. Barron Edward C. Voss Wayne McConnell William S. Turner Carlisle Ames Jack Walthour Harold F. Bache This organization, composed of two members from each class in the college and two members from the Theological School, plays an active part in the everyday life of the students. For the first time this year it maintained the former home of Miss Sarah Barnwell Elliott as a music studio for the choir and Glee Club. In addition it sponsored a program of Lenten speakers, which included such men as Bishops Juhan and Penick, Dr. Charles Jefferson Miller, president of the American College of Surgeons, and Mr. Coleman Jen- nings of Washington, D. C. It also distributed the Lenten and Easter offerings to the mountain missions around Sewanee. OUR men met in Washington, the nation's capital. One was the President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt. Turning to Major Archie Butt, his aide, he said: "Butt, where were you educated?" "Sewanee, sir," said Butt. Dr. Cary Grayson, later admiral and personal physician to Presi- dent Wilson, was one of the others. He spoke up: "I went there too." Roosevelt turned to the third man—the man without whom the Panama Canal could not have been built—General William C. Gorgas. "And where were you educated, Gorgas?" the President asked. "Sewanee, sir," came the answer. The President was deeply impressed. He made many inquiries about the little university which produced big men. Then he wrote: "I know of no university of the same size in any part of our country which has done more for the cause of good citizenship. It is called 'The University of the South,' but it is much more than that. Its welfare should be dear to all Americans who are both patriotic and farsighted." The University of the South at Sewanee lies midway between Nash- ville and Chattanooga. It is a small, compact institution, situated in the center of a magnificently forested domain of ten thousand acres which the university owns and controls. Within five minutes' walk of the university campus in any direction is the untouched forest. Here are also deep valleys running off the plateau on which Sewanee stands, val- leys surrounded by huge cliffs of rock and containing in almost every case rapidly running streams. Such a setting is almost unique in Amer- ican educational institutions. The university itself consists of a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and a Theological School. The corporation also directs its preparatory school, the Sewanee Military Academy. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is the heart of the university. It is here that all the dif- ferent courses are given toward the construction of a liberal education in the highest sense of that phrase. **w i^^ %v I^cocx: Clinton G. Brown ......

Kellerman Worrall Bartlam Dawson Fussell Green Third Row Coach Clark Crosland Rodgers Butler Blair Patton Bean Cantrill Young Captain Cravens Hawkins Coach Kirkpatrick Captain Cravens Too much cannot be said of Captain Bill Cravens' performance during the past football season. Himself a steady and consistent, though not a flashy player, he ran his team well and proved a leader of ability. In recognition of his services both on the gridiron and on the cin- der track, where he was a hurdler of ability, Hill was awarded the Porter cup of 1 930 as the athlete most valuable to Sewanee in that vear. Sterling 'T^abs lianker of Tulane Keview of the Season Sewanee, 46; T. P. I., Sewanee inaugurated her 1929 season by swamping Tennessee Tech by the overwhelming score of forty-six to nothing. The Tigers started with a rurh and never stopped during the whole sixty minutes of play. The visitors never came any closer than the Tigers' forty-five-yard line and were on the defensive throughout the whole game. Sewanee uncovered a galaxy of stars in the backfield led by Worrall and Boyd. Barron, Wise, Philips and Jeffries gave a neat exhibition of play. In the line Captain Cravens, Stimson, Page, Sterling, Patton and Dawson were the luminaries. The Tigers built up a comfortable lead by scoring four touchdowns in the first half. Dawson snagged a beautiful pass and raced across the line to bring the stands to their feet. In the second half Charlie Boyd cut over tackle, shook several would-be tacklers off and raced seventy yards for a touchdown. Worrall made the last touchdown of the day when he darted around end for about six yards. Sewanee, 6; Transylvania, 6 In a sea of mud Transylvania and Sewanee battled to a six-six tie on Hardee Field. Three minutes after the beginning of play it was impossible to hold the slick pigskin. The visitors used the Minnesota shift which gained them a lot of ground during the first quarter, but which later on drew for them many five-yard penalties. Sewanee was the victim of an unfortunate break in the first quarter when a high short punt hit one of her own men and the visitors recovered on the Purple's nine-yard line. The visitors took advantage of this break to drive over a counter and from then on for the most part stayed on the defensive. Sewanee came back in the second half with lots of drive, but was unable to gain when it really needed the yardage. Dame Fortune finally smiled on the Purple Warriors and they recovered a fumble on the visitors' thirty-five-yard line. On the next play Worrall, the phantom, broke off tackle, shook off some would-be tacklers and raced thirty-five yards for a much needed touchdown. The try for the extra point failed. The remainder of the game was fought out in midfield. Worrall and Boyd played great ball for the Tigers. Patton and Stimson were veritable "Rocks of Gibraltar" in the line. Camp and Haseldon bore the brunt of the visitors' attack. Sewanee, 14; L. S. U., 27 Sewanee's Purple Tigers faced their first conference opponents in the Tiger of Louisiana State. It was a great battle, and although the Purple fought valiantly it was never able to overcome the lead that the Tigers from L. S. U. piled up in the first quarter. The final score was twenty-seven to fourteen in favor of L. S. U. Holden, Hendrix and Reeves skirted the ends and ran off tackle in the first quarter to give the Tigers three touchdowns. Sewanee staged a comeback and Worrall ran through the whole L. S. U. team until he was forced out of bounds on their thirteen-vard line. At this point the Purple fumbled and the rallv was crushed. The 8i Purple was not to be denied, for a little before the half ended Boyd tossed a pass into the arms of Captain Cravens, who eluded several tacklers and raced sixty yards for a touchdown. Boyd kicked the extra point. Sewanee made a decisive comeback in the second half, playing the Baton Rouge boys on even terms. Boyd ploughed through the line in the third quarter for the Tigers second score nad added the extra point. In the matter of first downs both teams had to be content with fourteen apiece. Boyd and Worrall were threats at all times to the opposing teams. Patton, Bean and Stimson smeared many plays in the making. Captain Cravens was a defensive star and was on the receiving end of many passes. Sewanee, 33; Cumberland, 6 Although outweighed some fifteen pounds to the man the Tigers uncovered a relentless attack that swept their slower opponents off their feet. The Bulldogs started out with a big rush and on a series of off-tackle plays and line smashes drove the ball to the Tigers' twelve-yard line. At this point they tried to use a little strategy and passed, but it fell into the open arms of Abe Philips, who raced seventy-five yards up the field before being driven out of bounds on the visitors' twelve-yard line. The Tigers in three plays had sent Jeffries over with the first counter and they were never threatened seriously during the remainder of the game. Boyd gave a wonderful exhibition of running by dashing through the whole Cumberland team for seventy yards and a touchdown. Charlie Barron intercepted a pass in the fourth quarter and unmolested sprinted fifty yards across the last white line for another score. Sterling, Page and Cravens were the Tiger stars in the line, while Barron, Philips and Young stood out in Sewanee Stops Whatley of Tularu 82 THE CAP AND GOWN the backfield. Woody and Cook were most consistent for the visitors in the line, while Standard and Taylor bore the brunt in the backtield. Sewanee, 7; Alabama, 35 October, 1929, meant the meeting of the Crimson and the Purple again in combat. The Crimson showed a complete reversal of form from the Saturday before when they had fallen before the mighty Vols, and smashed the thin Purple wall into submission with a battering ram in the person of Mr. Tony Holm. In an effort to break into the scoring column the fighting Purple Tiger sought the air and in this they found a real weapon. They tried several passes and completed some for neat gains, but not until the last play of the game did they score. A pass from Boyd found its way into the arms of Hugh Goodman, who stepped across the goal line. Boyd made the try good for the extra point. Sewanee's small pair of ends, Captain Cravens and Cotton Ezzell, distinguished themselves nobly by time and again worming their way through the Tide's offense and throwing their heavier opponents for losses. Sterling and Stimson played great ball in the line, while Jeffries and Green played the best defensive game in the backfield. Hugh Goodman was on the receiving end of some neat passes. Holm was the Alabama star throughout the game. Sewanee, 6; Mississippi, 6 The proverbial Mississippi mud proved tco much for the Tigers, for their pony backs were - > .'Jtft...'' * Toss—Worrall to Vhillips vs. %)andy 83 unable to stand up, although they outgained their heavier opponents at will. "Ole Miss" was invincible in her own territory, and the Mountaineers had to resort to the aerial route to gain their only score. A pass from Worrall to the fleet-footed Goodman in the last quarter was good for the needed yardage. "Ole Miss" had welcomed her alumni on Homecoming Day by march- ing straight down the field in the early part of the first quarter for her touchdown. Boyd and Worrall were the Tiger mainstays and gained at will through the heavier line. Sewanee had a total of eighteen first downs to her opponent's six. The Purple's comeback in the second half was magnificent, and they registered twelve first downs,, while "Ole Miss" was able to garner only one. Sterling, Stimson and French were superb in the line for Sewanee. Woodruff and Wilcox were the best gainers for "Ole Miss", while Jones and Peeples stood out in the line. Sewanee, 0; Southwestern, 9 Sewanee suffered a terrible reversal of form the following week-end to drop a weird exhibi- tion of football to a fighting Southwestern team. This was the first time this year that the Tigers were unable to dent the scoring column. The Lynx had pointed to this game as their biggest of the year and they succeeded in breaking up the aerial attack of the Tigers. The first downs were even with each team having nine. A blocked punt gave the Lynx a safety in the first half. The Lynx, however, added insult to injury by blocking another Tiger punt in the fourth quarter and this time they recovered for a touchdown and made the try for the extra point good. Two Memphis boys, Stimson and Page, played great ball for the Tigers. They were all over the field and were in every play. Patton and French also broke through on many Worrall and £z Sewanee, 0; Tulane, 18 A Green Wave which flowed and ebbed, but mostly ebbed. Therein is the story of the Sewanee-Tulane scrap which finally ended in the champion's favor, eighteen to nothing. Banker and Armstrong were thrown for repeated losses by Captain Cravens and John Ezzell who were in every play. The first half was scoreless, with Worrall having the better of the blonde Banker in a punting duel. Tulane was able to gain ground in the open field, but was never able to penetrate any further than the twenty-five-yard line. The second half began optimistically for the Tigers when Captain Cravens caught the kickoff and ran it back fifty-five yards to Tulane's thirty-five-yard line. Two passes from Worrall to Phillips and Cravens put the ball on the ten-yard line, but Tulane's defense stiffened and the Tigers were powerless. Tulane took the ball hack up the field for a score. Another march down the field netted another and Whatley made the third on a twenty-five-yard run. Cravens, Ezzell, French and Patton shone for the Tigers, while Worrall was the backfield star. Banker and Armstrong carried the brunt of the attack for the Wave. Sewanee, 6; Vanderbilt, 26 Dan McGugin pulled a Knute Rockne on the Purple Warriors by starting his second string line up. The Tigers clearly showed they were to be reckoned with by marching the kick-off Worrall ^uns from 'Punt "formation back down the field, only to lose it when one of Worrall's passes fell into the arms of Askew, who raced sixty-five yards back up the field before being brought to earth on the Purple's four- yard strip. Vandy fumbled on the next play and the Purple recovered. At this point the first string of the Commodores entered the fray and with the aid of McGaughey drove over two touchdowns. The half ended with the Commodores out in front, thirteen to nothing. The Tigers came back in the second half and with two first downs in succession, things locked good. On the next play Worrall was thrown for a loss; he kicked and the ball struck a Vandy man. Phillips recovered for the Tigers. The Tigers were halted at this point, however. The Com- modores scored two more touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters, respectively, McGaughev making both of these. Coach "Kirk's" boys were not to be denied, however. In the last of the fourth quarter a pass from Worrall to Captain Cravens was good for forty yards, placing the ball on Variety's three-yard line. Worrall plunged over on the first play for the score. Captain Cravens, Pete Young and Ezzell played great defensive ball for the Purple and White. They were in practically every play and Craven's snagging the pass ultimately paved the way for the Tiger score. Worrall was easily the star of the game, getting off to some neat gains and making a large share of the tackles. His punts were well timed and very consistent. McGaughey was the bomb shell that wrecked the Tiger hopes. He gained almost at will and was respon- sible for all four Commodore touchdowns. Captain Cravens, Pete Young and Bobbie Worrall rang down the curtain to their college careers in a blaze of glory. The Fresliimain Season In answer to the first call of the season a thin and light squad of freshmen turned out and Uncle Ben Cubbage took them under his wing to make them into college players. Only a few big men bolstered the weight of the aggregation, and not many of them had been heard of before they came to the Mountain. However, they displayed speed and enthusiasm and were soon on the way to organizing a team out of chaos. The S. M. A. Cadets were the opponents for the first real scrimmage of the season. The game on the whole was ragged, for neither team had had more than two weeks of practice. S. M. A. pushed over the first touchdown on a blocked punt, but the freshmen came back not long after to tie the score at six and six and the contest ended with that count. Morton and Manthey at the tackles showed plenty of possibility, while Voss and Holland held down the guard positions to good advantage. Egleston at center snapped the ball with deadly accuracy. Huntley as substitute center showed that he was willing. Piplar and Craig on the ends kept down the long runs around the wings. Fitch was an able field general, with Robinson, Under- wood and Stimson obeying his commands for many gains. The Yearlings battled the next game of the season to a scoreless tie with Morgan. Gene McLure came in for great work throughout the game, both in punting and in running the ball. He booted the ball for an average of forty-five yards and made several substantial gains. Clark and Underwood contributed to the yardage gained, while Robinson, handicapped by recent injuries, was unable to get going. Morton, Egleston and Manthey were the stars of the line, displaying lots of fight. Morgan had a pass attack that the first year Tigers were able to offset only with McLure's punting. A pass formation from a screened end run was a thorn in the side of the freshmen ends, and netted the opponents many yards towards the goal. At crucial moments the pass attack of the freshmen failed to materialize and the ball often went over when they were within scoring distance. After a rest of two weeks the Yearlings invaded Murfreesboro to battle the freshmen from the Tennessee Teachers' College. McLure played his first game as captain of the squad and showed that he was worthy of the position. His team, however, played ragged football, but showed that they should have had it over the Teachers, who put forth no stellar brand of football. For the first counter of the game, the Teachers received a beautiful punt from the toe of McLure to make a freak run back down the field across the goal line. Their other score came when they punched the hall within scoring distance and then heaved a pass over the heads of the frosh backs. In the final minute of the game Joe Robinson tore around and through the entire opposing team for the freshmen's only score. Knorr opened the way for Joe and let him do the rest. McLure played his usual good game, but the other backs had a hard time getting started. Stimson backed up the line, doing good work all the time. Smith, on end, Egleston at cen- ter and Morton at guard were the stars of the line. On one occasion the entire line showed what 87 the old Sewanee spirit is, when, with their backs to the scoring line, they held the Teachers for four downs and then took possession of the ball to bring it back down the field. The fourth game of the season brought the freshmen from the University of Chattanooga to the Mountain. They were a huge lot of men for a freshman team, but when they got out there on Cope Field they proved the statement that the bigger they come the harder they fall. The Sewanee freshmen outplayed them throughout the game in spite of the indications deduced from a six to nothing score in favor of the Moccasins. The game was contested in a sea of mud and the clouds were so thick on the mountain that it was impossible to see from one side of the field to the other. The boys from Chattanooga made only the one bid for a score. The first half was mostly a punting duel, but the Tigers took the ball on the offensive in the second period. They seemed to lack the punch to put it over, and several times lost the ball while well within the scoring territory. McLure and Underwood were the brilliants in the backfield, while Morton, Eggleston and Manthey held their front line positions like veterans. McLure's steady kicking power was the feature of the game and Morton's steady ability to crash the line, which netted him one blocked punt, was disastrous to the opponents. The Yearlings fought and tore their way into the Moccasins' team with good work and the real spirit. On a dry and clear field, it is certain that they would have been picked to win. Their teamwork was a vast improvement over the first games of the season, as was their knowledge of the game. Hopelessly outclassed and outweighed by a heavy, fast Vanderbilt team, which, it was rumored, could hold the Vanderbilt varsity scoreless, the freshmen went down under a 71-0 score in the last game of the season. By some good fortune our ancient rivals had obtained one of the greatest first-year teams seen in the South. Every man on the Sewanee Yearlings' team was up against the biggest odds of the season and every one played his heart out. That unsurmount- able score seemed to discourage not one of the wearers of the Purple, for they continued with the old fight to the last whistle. There is nothing but praise for those men who played on McGugin Field that day because in spite of the overwhelming odds, they showed Nashville what is the meaning of Sewanee spirit. Early in the game the freshmen were deprived of one of their fishy backs when Robinson went out of the game with a badly twisted knee. McLure played such a game as he had never before put up. His running, passing and punting comprised a stellar performance, and were an inspiration to the entire team. Stimson, backing up the line and punting the ball, was one of the stars of the backfield, while Underwood did some good defensive work. Clark as quarter led his team with more than his usual ability. In the line from end to end the boys showed that they knew the game and that they could fight, but it was of little use against the heavy primary defense of the opponents. It was only through sheer brute strength that the Vandy frosh could pierce our freshman line. The last game of the season ended disastrously for the Sewanee freshmen, but don't forget that they fought every minute of the contest. BASKETBALL THE CAP AND GOWN Review of the Season Sewanee experienced a very successful basketball season. She won six of her ten conference games, although she was outscored by her opponents by fifteen points. She was also handicapped in that Coach Emerson was only able to come up three nights a week to instruct his boys. The Tigers have even brighter prospects next year in that they only lose two men— Captain Hines and Frank Thig- pen. In the way of substitutes and prospective var- sity material the Tigers are receiving very good aid from the freshmen. The Tigers started their season off in fine style by successfully trimming the Chattanooga V. M. C. A. by the overwhelming score of fortv-seven to twenty-six. Goodman, Dawson and Yates led the Tiger scoring by amassing thirty-five of the forty- seven markers for the Tigers. Captain Hines was easily the defensive star for the Tigers and kept the visiting total down during the whole fray. Bob Owens, a former Tiger, played well for the visitors. Back after the holidays the Tigers dropped a rather loosely played game to the Dupont Rayon plant. The final score was thirty-nine to twenty- nine against the Tigers. Dupont exploded a bomb shell in the Tiger camp in the person of Duck Rob- erts, who led the scoring with fourteen points. Dawson starred for the Tigers and rang up thir- teen points. Penn-Dixie took the measure of the Tigers in an overtime affair by a thirty to twenty-eight count. Captain Hines was the offensive and defensive star for the Tigers, having ten points to his credit and being a demon on the defense. Goodman also played a nice floor game for the Tigers. McCoy was the star for the visitors. That week-end proved disastrous for the Tigers, for they dropped a loosely played affair to the Chattanooga Moccasins also The Tigers were dead on their feet and couldn't shoot, losing by the rather one-sided score of thirty-four to twenty-three. What a difference two days make. The Tigers came to life against the ferocious Clemson Tiger, building up a commanding lead in the first half and fighting on even terms in the second to hold to it. Dawson, Yates and McRee were the big guns on the offense, while Captain Hines and Hugh Goodman were equally as great on the defense. The final score was twenty-six to twenty-four. Cap- tain Hines was a source of inspiration to his men throughout the game. A diminutive sophomore by the name of Smith was the best threat Clemson had and led their scoring with four field goals. Woodruff starred on the defense, breaking up many Purple passes inside the foul line. Sewanee was right. She completely humbled the proud Black and Gold quintet for the first time in the history of the two institutions by the crushing count of thirty-six to fifteen. The Tigers were never threatened from the start and by virtue of their close guarding held the Black and Gold to three field goals. Captain Hines and Goodman were thorns in the side of the Commodore forwards. Havis Dawson and "Piggy" Thigpen did the scoring with thirteen and eight points, respectively. McRee got the ball off the backboard and advanced it up the floor in fine style. Marsh and Franklin starred for the visitors. The Tigers made more history the following week by beating the Ramblers, forty to twenty-two in Nashville. Thigpen and McRee were the big offen- sive guns for the Tigers, with thirteen and ten points, respectively. Dawson played a nice floor game. Hines and Goodman were bulwarks on the defense. Worrall and Eaton were stars for the Ramblers. A return visit on the Mountain saw a scoring orgy which the Tigers finally won by a sixty-nine to fifty-one score. Dawson and Goodman were re- sponsible for forty of the Purple's points. Barron and McRee both played great floor games for the Purple and White. Thomasson and Coverdale were best for the losers. The Tigers slipped up on the next game to an unknown foe, Jackson State Teachers' College, and lost a weird exhibition of basketball, twenty-four to eighteen. The Tigers were ragged and not up to their usual form at all. Dawson and Goodman bore the brunt of the offense, while Hines sparkled on the defense. The Tigers took Coach Frank Faulkinberry's Teachers over the hurdles in a game that in the last part more or less resembled a football game. Daw- son and Goodman starred in this gridiron court battle and free-for-all which finally ended in the Purple's favor, forty-eight to twenty-five. The Tigers then embarked on a trip into the m Old Dominion. Their first game was with the V. P. I. Gobblers whom they subdued in a hectic struggle by the figures of twenty-seven to twenty- three. The Tigers were trailing at the half, but the sharp shooting "Colonel" Dawson looped in eighteen points, enough to win the fracas for the Mountaineers. Another night found the Tigers encamped at Lex- ington for a tussle with V. M. I. "Kaydets." The Tigers' defense was superb, but they were off on their shots. The first half was a tight affair with the score deadlocked four times. The Tigers eased ahead before the half with a one-point margin. Goodman and Thigpen led the scoring with ten and nine points, respectively. The riot act was served on Captain Hines and "Big" John McRee. This only stimulated the Tiger's zeal and Yates, Sterling, Goodman and Thigpen put the game on ice in the last few minutes with four successive field goals. The final count was thirty-one to twen- ty-two. "It was worth traveling miles to see." This was what a non-partisan of both teams had to say after the game. W. and L. conquered the Tigers, thirty- five to thirty, but after one of the hardest fights they ever had in their life. The Tigers played together as a coordinated whole, and although be- hind at the half-way mark, seventeen to seven, thev completely swept the Generals off their feet in the second canto. All of the Tigers played great ball and it would be an injustice to name the stars. Hanna upset the Tigers by scoring thirteen points. Cox and Williams were both smothered by the close guarding of the Tigers. The Tigers came back from the Virginia trip and on that week-end journeyed down to Nashville to take the Commodores over the hurdles again by the close score of forty to thirty-five. Dawson, Hines, Thigpen and Goodman proved too much for the Commodores in close places and, with the score tied in the final stages, crashed through for a victory. McRee played a wonderful floor game and fed the ball to his mates in fine style. Coffee and Chalfant starred for the Black and Gold, keeping the Com- modores in the game when they seemed lost. Sewanee lost a sorry exhibition to Chattanooga on the Mountain by the heart-breaking score of twenty-eight to twenty-four. Goodman played the whole game for the Tigers, contributing thirteen points and playing a cracking good floor game. Donnelly and Lotspeich were the big guns for th: Moccasins. The Tigers took a trip into "Bama". They stopped off in Birmingham long enough to drop a ragged decision to Birmingham-Southern by the score of thirty-six to twenty-four. The Tigers pulled a "Rockne" by starting their second string, but this was a grave mistake. The regulars went in and did no better, for the game was too far gone. The next night it was Tuscaloosa. The Tigers experienced a neat drubbing at the hands of the Crimson. They fought hard, but the advantage of height at the pivot position was a little too much. The Crimson were on in their shots, and hit them with constant regularity from every position. It is useless to mention the score, but they more than doubled the count on the Purple. The Tigers played a return engagement with State Teachers and tasted of defeat for the fifth time. The Teachers were right and built up a lead, and although the Tigers tried valiantly to overcome this, they were unable to and finally suc- cumbed, thirty-two to twenty-six. Dawson, Good- man and Hines were the stars for the Mountaineers. The Conference Sewanee bowled over the 1929 champions as their first opponents in the opening round of the S. I. C. basketball tournament. The final score was: Se- wanee, twenty-five ; N. C. State, nineteen. Good- man and Dawson led the scoring for the Tigers and Hugh's long shots from out in the center were one of the bright spots of the first day's play. Dawson made some beautiful shots from the side. Hines, McRee and Sterling played the best brand of ball defensively that they had played the entire year. Goodman crashed through with some nice shots at critical moments to put the game on ice for the Tigers. Rose and Johnson were the stars for the Wolfpack. Rose cashed in with three field goals to lead the Tarheels' scoring. The Tigers tried desperately to tame the Wild- cats the following night, but the breaks were against them. They had some really tall men, were fast and aggressive and broke for the basket in a light- ning-like fashion. The Kentuckians led at the half, sixteen to fourteen. The second half was a night- mare. McRee was put out of the game on excessive fouls. The Tigers went to pieces and the Wildcats went wild. The final score was forty-four to twen- ty-two. Dawson was the big offensive gun for the Tigers, while Goodman and Hines as usual played well on the defense. The three "Macs"—McBrayer and the two McGinnis—spelled victory for the Blue five. The Freshman Season In the first game of the season the Freshman Quintet lost to the Little Tigers of Sewanee Military Academy by a score of nineteen to eighteen. A gallant freshman rally in the last half fell short by one point, while the Cadets did not mark up a counter during this period. The rally was just too late. Morton and Hatch did the stellar work for the freshmen. City High of Chattanooga fell before the frosh when they won by a score of thirty-eight to twenty-five. In the first half both teams seemed about even, and the ball went through the net at frequent intervals. The half ended seventeen to fifteen in favor of the freshmen. At the beginning of the second half City took a lead of three points, but the Tigers soon began to show signs of life, and after that it was simply a case of which one got a shot at the basket. Lyttell and Hatch were high-point men with eleven points apiece. Castle Heights defeated the frosh in their third game, twenty-two to twenty. The freshmen trailed at the half, fourteen to six, but staged a determined rally in the second half that tied the score. The visitors hung up their winning tally in the last forty seconds of play. Morton was high scorer with eight points. Piplar and Hatch played well and scored four apiece. In a game that proved sensational in the closing minutes rather than any other time, the freshmen lost to McCallie, thirty-eight to thirty-five. The game was slow in the first half, but quickened to a fast pace in the second. Morton and Hatch were the shining lights in the last minute rally that cut the visitors' lead from twenty-seven to eighteen to the final score. In the last game of the season the frosh lost to Montgomery Bell Academy in a fast and hard-fought game. The frosh led throughout the first half, but were unable to stand the pace in the last, and the game went to the visitors, forty to thirty-four. Their famed second-half rally failed to materialize this time. Morton was high point man with twelve counters. At the end of the season the Athletic Board of Control voted the following freshmen and the manager certificates: Morton, Stimson, Hatch, Lyttell, Piplar and Nash (manager). Under- wood, Quisenberry, Hobart and Boots Jeffress served as subs during the year, and came to the assistance of the regulars on many occasions. TRACK Sewanee, 43%; Tennessee, 68% Tennessee came back to revenge the defeat the Tigers had handed them a year ago. Sewanee was unable to cope with the Vols in the dashes and this ultimately spelled victory for the visitors. The Purple Clan was unable to scratch in the century, the mile cr the two mile. Corbett for the Vols was high point man of the meet with a total of thirteen points. Billy Cravens was in his usual good form and stepped out to win both hurdle races to claim first honors for the Mountain clan. Stewart, captain of the Vols, negotiated the miie in the neat time of four minutes and thirty-two seconds which is good enough to win in almost any dual meet. Alabama, 74; Sewanee, 38 The Tigers ran into some hard luck down in Tuscaloosa. This hard luck was the Crimson Tide and for the third time this year they were at the height of their form against the Purple and White. Again in the running events the Tigers were a little weak, although their time had improved very much since the preceding Saturday. Barron broke the half mile record, but it was not official, due to the fact that he failed to place first. Captain Young won the high jump and placed second in the shot. Our star hurdler, Bill Cravens, duplicated the feat of the Saturday before by winning both hurdle races. Goodman ran a beautiful quarter, but was nosed out by only a few inches at the finish. Dawson won the javelin to give him his second letter of the year by winging it over one hundred and fifty feet. Smith was the star for the Crimson by virtue of winning the century, the two-twenty and the broad jump. Kentucky, 74%; Sewanee, 43% The Tigers now journeyed up into the Bluegrass State to have their annual encounter with the Ken- tucky Wild Cat. The Tigers had taken a very close meet from the "Cats" the year before and for this reason they were not %'ery playful. "Revenge was sweet" and in a record-breaking contest they finally subdued the Tiger by a score of 73}-^ to 43^2. The Kentuckians were forced to such limits that they broke three records in the mile, the shotput and the broad jump The Tigers were not far behind, for the fleet-footed Barron broke the half mile rec- ord by stepping it off in 2:2.6 and lowering it by 1.4 seconds. Hoppen almost jumped himself into a rec- ord in the broad jump, missing by only an inch. He, however, extended Kelly of "Ship Wreck" fame into breaking the Kentucky record. Cravens still kept his slate clean by winning both the high and low hurdles. Goodman and Barron cinched their third letters of the year in this meet. Captain Young, Bean and Dawson accounted for the other Tiger first places by winning the high jump, discus and javelin, respectively. The mighty Kelly was the star performer for the Wildcats with three first places in the century, two-twenty and broad jump. Cravens with two firsts in both hurdles was the Tiger luminary. Chattanooga, 18; Sewanee, 94 The Purple came into their own against Chat- tanooga. It was the most brilliant victory a Purple team ever won on the cinder path. Chattanooga was unable to annex a single first place during the entire afternoon, but Gross with four second places was high point man of the meet. Hoppen was high point man for the Tigers with eleven points, being closely seconded by Captain Young, Goodman and Cravens with ten points apiece. The time in most of the events was very slow, due to the rains throughout the week. This meet, however, gave letters to five Tigers who had worked diligently all through the season—Hoppen, Ward, Robinson, Eby and Bean. This meet closed the track season and the boys are looking forward to a more successful one next year. Letters were awarded to the following men at the close of the season: Captain Young, Captain- elect Barron, Bean, Eby, Ward, Hoppen, Dawson, Goodman, Cravens, Robinson and Manager Way. The 1930 Southern Intercollegiate Boxing Meet saw a Sewanee team take part in the contest for the first time in years, and in spite of that handicap the Tigers put up an admirable displav. Charlie Walter, bantamweight, opened for Sewanee against a superior opponent and lost the decision, but brought down the house in cheers. Fred Hollis survived the ordeal till the first round of the semi-finals when he was defeated on a technical knockout Coach Jackson won his first two fights and was putting up a good struggle against Captain Allen of North Carolina State when he suffered the same fate as did Hollis. Page's opponent proved to be a left-hander, and Carlyle never succeeded in adjusting himself to the situation. Syler drew a bye which threw him into the second round. He lost out in the third. Big Patton went up against the well-known Proctor of Florida, but lost by decision. Because of the success of this team it is rumored that the boxing equipment of the school is to be enlarged next year, and it is likely that this sport will be added to those in which the fraternities participate. This team certainly had fight, and there is no reason why Sewanee should not send out others like it in the future. Captain Edwards took his team to Athens for the first meet of the year. The Tigers were outclassed by the boys from the University of Georgia and lost by the score of fourteen and one- half to three and one-half points. Butler scored the only points for the Tigers. On the next after- noon in the match with Georgia Tech the Tigers came near to tieing the score with the final count of nine and one-half points for Georgia to our eight and one-half. The opponents of Edwards and Butler ended the match two up and one up, respectively. Rice and Williams took a total of eight points from their opponents. The Purple golfers displayed good form throughout, but lost their deciding point on the greens. The second trip of the year took the Tigers to Nashville, where they lost to Vandy, eleven to seven. Butler and Williams did the majority of the scoring, but were unable to beat the advance of the Vandy men. From Nashville the team traveled to Memphis, where it beat Southwestern, fifteen to three. The medal play of the team was outstanding. Edwards and Butler turned in a seventy-one apiece, Williams a seventy-seven and Rice a seventy-eight. This was the second time in two days that the Tigers had turned in scores under the eighty mark. On the day before the Southern Conference matches, Sewanee lost to the University of Alabama, eleven and one-half to six and one-half. The match served as a good practice round, however, for the Purple showed up well in the tournament the next day. The scores for the qualifying round were: Edwards, one hundred and sixty; Butler, one hundred and sixty-two; Williams, one hundred and sixty-four, and Rice, one hundred and sixty-five, which put them just outside of the first flight. Butler defeated Williams and Edwards to take first place in the second flight, these two following second and third, respectively. To cap the meet and the season, Butler was elected president of the Southern Intercollegiate Golf Association. This makes the second time in three years that a Sewanee man has held this honor. Tenuis Much of the activities of the varsity tennis team centered around the spectacular and entirely sound tennis tactics of one Teddy Burwell, a sophomore in the college and the holder of some four or five state titles. As Burwell played so played the team and when Burwell was absent from the Mountain the remaining netters ran into extremely difficult sledding. Sewanee tennis teams have been handicapped constantly because not one of them has pos- sessed the power to command the elements, and the rain has done its part in making outdoor work an impossibility this season. The indoor court, which is housed in the Ormond Simkins Gym, was noble in its efforts to supply the Purple raqueteers a place to display their strokes, but it was out of the question to play seven or eight matches on one court in one day. To pass from clay to wood is not an attractive prospect for any tennis team, but the opposite procedure is still less inviting. Nevertheless, the Tigers found it necessary to make the best of the change whenever the enemy was encountered. Vanderbilt won the first meet early in the season in Nashville. Donald Cram, fresh from a week's play in New Orleans against the nation's best, took Burwell's measure in sets which were featured by flashing drives and sparkling volleys. Teddy was unable to locate his distacnes and dropped many valuable points through over and under estimation. Paired with Allen he won partial revenge by defeating Cram and Thomas in the first doubles match, al- though the losers were a combination which advanced to the final round of the Southern Inter- collegiates later in the season. Shortly after the Vanderbilt match Burwell left Sewanee for the North-South Tournament which was held at Pinehurst, North Carolina, and the White Sulphur Springs Invitation Tourna- ment which followed in West Virginia. At Pinehurst he advanced through two rounds at the expense of Robert McMillan, former University of Wisconsin star, and Herbert Vail of Long Island. Both matches were won in straight sets. In the third round Burwell met Berkley Bell, National Intercollegiate champion, and, after leading one set and four-love on the second, faltered to lose the match in three thrilling sets. It was a splendid exhibition on tennis. At White Sulphur history was repeated and Teddy was again eliminated in the third round by Bell. With Burwell playing at Pinehurst, Georgia Tech and the University of Kentucky were encountered on the Mountain. Sewanee barely missed a tie when Hines and Raines lost the last doubles match to the Tech pair in three trying sets. Yates downed his man in a fine come-back and Raines defeated his in straight sets. Golden and Williamson, playing one and two for the Tornado, defeated Hines and Allen to win the meet. The Kentucky 'Cats took the next meet by a five and two score. They presented a well- rounded outfit, winning three singles and two doubles for the total. Yates scored his second victory in as many days when he turned back Senff of the opposition, and Hare turned in a win over Brock for the second Purple victory. Tennessee was handed a three and two defeat on the following Monday. Burwell won his match and dropped but one game. Yates and Raines won in three sets which went into extra games, while Hines and Allen were defeated in three sets each, all six going to extra games. So long did the singles matches last that darkness put an end to the doubles play when Burwell and Allen had a lead on one set in the first match. On May 9th Sewanee missed tieing with North Carolina when the final doubles match went to the Carolinians in three sets. Burwell won from Merritt, losing only one game. Burwell and Allen took the measure of Hendlin and Linisk in straight sets in doubles. The defeated were semi-finalists at the conference meet the following week. Southern Conference Tournament Teddy Burwell and Bob Hare represented the Purple at the conference meet in New Orleans on May 14th. The latter won his first match from a Mississippi opponent, but lost in the second round Burwell defeated Polites of Florida and advanced to the quarter-finals by trim- ming Merritt of North Carolina in straight sets. His quarter-finals match was played against Clifford Sutter of Tulane, the defending champion. Burwell was defeated by Sutter in a hard-driving match which was the feature of the day. The victor won through a net attack which he started from behind a protected serve. Once he was at the net, it was almost an impossibility to pass him. Sutter won the intercollegiate title by defeating Fuer and Cram. Interfraternity Athletics Almost as full of interest and excitement as the intercollegiate contests are the interfraternitv games. Sewanee has the distinction of being the originater of this system of athletics in the South. Cups are given the victors in baseball, basketball, swimming, track and football; and the points from these contests and the minor ones such as golf and tennis are counted in towards a major cup given by Dr. Bennett to the fraternity most successful in all fields. First, second and third places are counted. Touchball Ends in a Tie Sigma Nu and Phi Delta Theta emerged from the football season in the lead. Even after a game to play off the tie, they remained tied; and a second game has not been played. Alpha Tau Omega is the next in the running, securing third place. K. A.'s Cop Basketball Title Pete Young's great height enabled the Kappa Alpha's to offer first rate competition in the interfraternitv league, and contributed greatly to the winning of the title. It was a nip and tuck affair all through the season, but the K. A.'s gradually became most prominent. Alpha Tau Omega was a close second, with Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Nu tieing for third. Bengals Retain Handball Crown Joseph Schuessler and Hedley Williams won first in the handball league for the Bengals, this being the second consecutive year that lodge has held that honor. They went through the season on a surge of victory and the title was easily theirs. Sigma Nu, Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Phi Delta Theta split the second and third place points when it grew too late to play off the tie. Deltas Splash Way to Swimming Title The Delta Tau Deltas, under the leadership of Jerry Thompson, won the first swimming meet in the history of Sewanee. Sigma Nu came second with Alpha Tau Omega taking third place. Competition was keen and every event was crowded so that the outlook for future meets is very bright. A. T. O.'s Annex Track Meet It looked like anybody's meet throughout the day of the preliminaries and for a while in the second day. When it came to the relay, however, the contest had narrowed down to the Phis and the A. T. O.'s. The A. T. O.'s came through to win that event and clinched the meet. Phi Delta Theta was a close second, while the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity came in for third place. Baseball, Tennis and Golf Unfinished As the annual goes to press, the above sports are still undecided. It looks, however, as if the Sigma Nus stand a good chance of winning the baseball title. Tennis and golf are too unsettled even to guess on The Bennett best all-around cup has not been awarded either, but the A. T. O.'s and Sigma Nus have it pretty well between them. The Pae^Hellentic Council HE Pan-Hellenic Council has for its object the promo- tion of better interfraternity relations and the govern- ment of fraternity activities. Its membership consists of two representatives from each of the national Greek- letter societies. The council issues rules governing rushing of new men and, in cases of violation of these regulations, acts as a court to try the offending fraternity or individual. The council also sponsors entertainments given throughout the year by the fra- ternities for the Senior Cadets of the Sewanee Military Academy and in other ways creates a general interest in fraternity activities on the Mountain. Much favorable comment on the Sewanee system of rushing has been heard from various universities in the South, and in some cases the plans adopted by Sewanee Pan-Hellenic in 1924 ha^- been copied by neighboring schools. The second Sunday after the opening of the school year is usually designated by Pan-Hel- lenic as Pledge Day. At this time men who have received invi- tations to join fraternities go to the house of their choice to be welcomed by their future brothers. Officers of Pan-Hellenic Council for the year 1929-1930 were John Ezzell, president, and Charles Barron, secretary. EDWARD5.6H D055ETT CRAWFORD WALKEB.W.P IN TK(D DAVIDSON H1NES GREEN ,R.H.

Poetry, essays and short stories were presented at the bi-monthly meetings. A new national constitution provides for honorary members, and Sopherim had the pleasure of initiating General J. P. Jervey into the fraternity. The increased relationship between members of the faculty and members of the fraternity proved a real benefit. One of the most enjoyable meetings of the year was held at the home of General Jervey when Sopherim had as its guests the members of Neograph and Mr. Long reviewed "The Testa- ment of Beauty," by Robert Bridges. 136 51ue Key National Honorary Leadership Fraternity Founded at the University of Florida in 192+ Sewanee Chapter Established in 192J Roll In Facilitate Professor W.

Secretary-Treasurer PUBLICATIONS — s In the good old days of which we hear so often, there were at Sewanee three organizations and three only— Sigma Epsilon and Pi Omega, rival literary societies, and the Red Ribbon So- ciety, an honorary organization for men of recognized achievements. The entire student body belonged to either Sigma Epsilon or Pi Omega and both were flourishing—to be a Red was a most coveted distinction. With this in view men labored for and supported student activities in order to show their ability and spirit. It is written in the Book of Life, "To him that hath shall be given." Verily today is the Scripture fulfilled in our ears. As is always the case, a few men were most outstanding in their several fields of endeavor. They banded together and brought another honor society into being. The process has continued until today we have approximately sixteen student honor societies. To a casual onlooker this would seem to indicate that Sewanee is inhabited by a race of super- men—this evidence at least w.ould have to be rejected. What has happened is this: We have so many honor societies that none of them mean much. In the days of old the workers complained because they had no recognition; now, like the frogs in the fable, they are so bur- dened by what they formerly desired that they look with longing into the past. Our honor organizations and student body have increased in a somewhat similar ratio to the cost of living and the pay of the wage-earner. We have unlimited organizations, but only a limited list of outstanding men, so the leaders in any line, no matter what, are promptly taken into all of them. The societies need more members though ; the good fellows are added to the ranks. The rosters are now full and the deserving, hard-working men who would have time and interest to devote to the organizations are left out in the cold. The results of this process are, no doubt, agreeable and polished social bodies, but they could hardly be called honor organiza- tions for recognizing merit in definite fields. The world we live in is not idyllic as we all acknowledge with regret, but there is a hope of making it rnore so - Let us leave the unrequited but deserving men vlhere the honor organizations have left them. What is the result of their popularity upon the selected few? It is twofold. They belong to so many societies that they cannot work in all. As a consequence, they work very little if any to the obvious detriment of both parties concerned. We could condone this, however, but thev are so busy chasing the devil around the bush that they neglect their original line of en- deavor for which they merited this elevation. Student activities have taken a decided slump just look around for yourself. As for the studies for which they came to college, these are given about as much time as we have given them space. The Scripture lesson concludes: "From him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath." We have lost interest in our honor organizations; we are losing interest in our activities—there is only one thing left to lose.

Knickerbocker, head of the De- partment of English, is the oldest publication of its kind in America. The Review is scholarly in at- tainment and widely cultural in scope. Articles by many of the foremost writers in the country appear in its pages. "The Sewanee Purple," although edited entirely by stu- dents, is a weekly publication financed by the Athletic Board of Control. By means of its Open Forum the entire student body is afforded an opportunity of expressing its views and ideas. All campus news and other news of interest to the alumni and students appear in its pages. A short article each week by some outstanding writer on college problems is a feature of the publication. The Cap and Gown is the yearbook of the university, being published at the end of each session. It is under the management of the Order of Gownsmen, which elects the editor and business manager, and for many years has been outstanding in its class. The Mountain Goat is a humorous magazine appearing four times a year. It is entirely under student management, the editor and business manager being elected by Sopherim. Although only five years old, the Goat has already taken its place among the publications of the Mountain. 148 ^ •pi *[? ^T^ ^T^ * •ji JJi 1^ *fll V V *V V CJP ^1 ^r^ ^i ^pi ^1 •P& ^T^ ^T^ >e David Yates President George Hann Secretary William S.

Additional trips to nearby Tennessee and Alabama towns brought the total distance traveled well over five thousand miles. The personnel of the club was exceptionally good this year and the audiences were invariably pleased. Solos by John Gowen, a humorous skit, and numbers by the Sewanee Syncopators were the outstanding features of the performances. 5SS® Melvin Craig (Director) Saxophone Jerome Thompson Saxophone Lathrop Postlethwaite Piano Jack Walthour Banjo Redmond Eason Trumpet Thomas Byrne Drums While mainly complementary to the Glee Club, the Sewanee Synco- pators must receive a good share of praise for the success of the trips taken by that organization. Besides having a part in each performance, the syncoptators often played for dancing later, and were enthusiastically received in both instances. Their Sewanee activities were largely limited to a few appearances at the union, but these were greatly enjoyed by all fellow students. Sigma Epsilon Literary Society Officers Richard L. Sturgis .

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

Syler Smith, E. Sanford Springer McNeil Hayward French A series of informal addresses by members of the faculty proved a boon to Pi Omega in the winter and spring terms of this year. Covering a wide range of subjects, the talks attracted many members and their friends who found in them much valuable information as well as enjoyment. The annual banquet, held late in the spring, served as a fitting climax to a successful year. The name of the society, Pi Omega, is taken from the initial letters in the names of two of the founders of the university—Bishops Polk and Otey. The society is one of the oldest of any sort at Sewanee. 155 Easter ^Dances—Senior Qerman Officers of the Senior German Club Charles A. Poellnitz President Edward C. Nash Vice-President W.

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

Lots of Sewanee fraternities have fine pasts, but our past is all in the future and we're trying to catch up with it. Any way, we can't backslide. We lost most of our activities last year when Byrom Dickens graduated, but before he left he fixed some of us up, but outside of that we don't seem to be very active. Brother Tom Byrne plays the drums in the Glee Culb, he being the only man who had any drums. We have got several men on the Mountain Goat since Brother Burger is editor. Jack Cross, the man from the Fi£.

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