Published Rnnually by the Senior Class of Davidson College Davidson, florth Carolina WitcUi Patlon Editor ^Jjaue iKobinion Bushic^'i Mtiuciocr Classes In our classmates wc found the friendships that gi\'e college life something new every day; therein we found our laughs and our ponderances. I Rctivities In our elections, our deputations, our meet- ings, and in our week-end excursions . we came to know Davidson s men of today who will lead tomorrow. Sports Much of our school's doctrine wc found in our sports . that it's not how much we w in or lose, hut the way we play the game. Fraternities In honoraries we found reward for our work . while down at fraternity court, we competed in rushing, athletics, singing, scholarship, sportsmanship, and hlood dri\'es. r Dedicated to PROFESSOR RRTHUR GLUYn GRIFFin A TEACHER .... to us, stimulating, effective, and natural in presentation; without affectation, pretense, or assumption. A GENTLEMAN . whom we see as modest, generous, and incapable of inferior thoughts; always helpful, sincere, and kind; exemplifying courage and spirit. A CHRISTIAN . having shown himself to be simple in faith, exem- plary in life, and willing in service to God and man. In the lollowing pages \vc hopj^ou^ll find a lite-like portrayal of our year at Davidson— the Friendshij^, dj^acti\ ities, the fun, the stutK We lune cast throiighoul this ho(}k pictorial recollections ol the l)a\idson life as preserxed in a Quips and C hanks ot httv years ago, hoping to capture in retros[KX't some ol the atmosphere that permeated campus lile here at that time. It seems somewhat unic|ue that this period ol time \\c look hack upon has witnessed three world conflicts that lia\e taken Davidson men I mm the classroom to the front line.

  • Triple Plays Analysis
    A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year. The number of TP’s each year were: Total Triple Plays Each Year (all Leagues) Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's <1876 1900 1 1925 7 1950 5 1975 1 2000 5 1876 3 1901 8 1926 9 1951 4 1976 3 2001 2 1877 3 1902 6 1927 9 1952 3 1977 6 2002 6 1878 2 1903 7 1928 2 1953 5 1978 6 2003 2 1879 2 1904 1 1929 11 1954 5 1979 11 2004 3 1880 4 1905 8 1930 7 1955 7 1980 5 2005 1 1881 3 1906 4 1931 8 1956 2 1981 5 2006 5 1882 10 1907 3 1932 3 1957 4 1982 4 2007 4 1883 2 1908 7 1933 2 1958 4 1983 5 2008 2 1884 10 1909 4 1934 5 1959 2
