The Spirit of Old Davidson
On summer nights soft breezes blow
The tall EWeet grasses to and fro O'er the green, and thru the halls Of time-worn Chamber's ivied walls
Low phantom voices come to me With echoed laughter, melody Of those who from these doors have
But they have passed and I alone Now stand between the pillared row Of Chamber's lofty portico.
Can't you hear them talking, laughing,
The friends long gone and friends just passing?
Beneath the pillared portico.
Behold them going to and fro.
And in the moonlight's silver strands We see them, hear them, grasp their hands.
For these are they who have made us.
They formed the spirit of the campus;
Tho* some are dead and some are far.
Yet have they made us what we are.
Old Chambers sleeps without a sound. He sleeps the summer time around.
And in the mellow moonlight beams;
The gho3ts we see arc but his dreams.

"Booney" has only two failings that we know of.Df. He will talk about Kinston and he will hang out with "Willie," "Pot," "Pic;," and "Ikey." His four years in a large city like Davidson have somewhat overcome the former failing, and he has proved himself a good man by getting along O. K. in spite of the latter shortcoming. His quiet, unassuming friendliness and ready good nature have won him many friends. Aside from being a "shark" on "Bug" and getting over 85 on most everything else, he holds down the important post of "lance private" in the R. O. T. C.

Booker's letters from home are postmarked Clayton, N. C, but it is rumored that the R. F. D. man carries them many miles before this stamp is placed upon them. He left his native city to begin his college career at Davidson, and after four years of steady plodding he has gained the far-famed position of Fresh Monitor. In the Phi Society he holds a place of no mean regard and has become a scintillating star in its ranks after years of steady practice and labor. He hopes some day to become a doctor, but whether M.D. or V.D. we will refrain from stating.

Though he hails from a far-away land. Buck has in every respect become one of U5. His college life
has been, for himself, a pre-eminent success; for us it has been a source of worth-while pleasure to have come in contact with such a man. He has won for himself an enviable place here at Davidson, enjoying the full confidence of every man who knows him. Recognized as a man of high aspirations, he has been given a place of well deserved prominence. This, augmented by a friendly, unselfish interest in
others, has made him one to whom the Class of 1920 may point with pride. As a manager, he is second only to Matthews.

Lawrence can keep a level head except in the presence of "lire," can make a speech or the honor roll with equal ease, and can even get to chapel on time (sometimes). He used to think he would be a country preacher, but since being a marshal he wants a city flock so he can wear a "Jim swinger" every day. But whether his coat tails be long or short, L.

Although Pitts has been wilh us only two years, he has had ample time to show us ihe kind of stuff he IS made of. Especially is this true on the football field, where he has proven his worth and genuine ability for two seasons. This, together with his classroom work, would have made it rather hard for some men to bring down a "dip " in three years, but Pitts can show you how to skip the Junior Class and get away with it. We dont blame him for skipping the Junior Class and joining ours, and our only regret is that he has not been with us four years. He has all those qualities that go to make up the gentleman and student and we are confident that he will go through life with the same "push " that he has shown on the gridiron and wilt make a huge success of it.

Once upon a lime a litlle boy fell in love with his school-teacher. By and by the little boy went away off to college and began to write her letters. But alas! she began to call him "Dearest Lyndon," and he
got shy and cut the cables. This is the sad story of Augustus' first love, but he is rapidly recovering and may soon enter the lists again. Although he came to us in short trousers, "Atom" brought long ideas with him and he has never failed to shoot a prof. In spite of four years' association with Booker

We have here the best football manager that Davidson has had in some time.

And all the other positions that Frank has held have been filled with the same competency and thoroughness. At tennis he has no peer on the campus, his wicked serve mowing down his opponents with ease.

Although he is called "Squirt McGirt. the college flirt." we have it from good authority that Gussie never does such a thing.

On the athletic field he knocks a home-run for us, untying the score. With the fair sex he makes a greater hil, judging from the mail he draws.

When the curtain dropped on the 191 1- 1 8 athletic season. Twenty-one had been represented on the varsity baseball and track teams, and her members were to be found on every athletic team put out by the college. In her Soph year, the class was champion in class sports, winning the basketball and track championships. It was around her members that the varsity teams in these sports were built up. So the records go. Twenty-one figuring in all the athletic conquests of the day. But do not think that all of her strength was expended in the pursuit of athletics, for 'tis not so. Twenty-one's record in scholarship and literary attainments is equally as good. Some of her members have been making the Honor Roll with monotonous reg- ularity as far back as the mind can run. And many more of her members will win fame and fortune as a result of their fine scholarship at old D. C. In the literary societies Twenty-one has reigned supreme, for to her went the debating medals in spite of all the efforts for the contrary. In no branch of college activity has Twenty-one failed to do her share and when the show-down comes, she'll be there. "She came, she saw, she conquered " can be applied to Twenty-one with worlds of truth, and when the time comes for her to be no more, her marks will be on the tablets of fame for time eternal.

Page sixt\,'-five Sophomore Class History LASSES may come and classes may go, but class histories must still be written. This may be a rank misstatement of Tennyson's words, but it is true nevertheless, as all class historians realize to their sorrow. Two years of our college course have been left behind us, and now it is time for an account of the joys and the sorrows, the successes and the failures of the Class of '22 on this stage of our journey, to be inscribed beside those of the men who have gone before us. On the 18th day of September, 1918, a band of nearly a hundred and fifty, more or less, green and scared Freshmen gathered for the first time on the campus of Davidson. But it was not to the Davidson of which we had heard and read that we came. Instead of a college, we found that we were entering the army. Uncle Sam had decreed that the colleges of the country should become training camps and Davidson had fallen in line with hundreds of other institutions to do her bit for democracy. For the first few days we were kept pretty busy by the upper classmen, who did their share in preparmg us for service in France by teaching us how to scale the fences and barbed wire entanglements in the vicinity of Sprunt Athletic Field. On the first day of October more than one hundred of our number took the oath of allegiance and became members of the Davidson S. A. T. C. Unit ; others heroically took their stand in the ranks of Company "D" ; while some few turned their backs on the military world (for lack of years, not patriotism) and repaired to Chambers to apply themselves to the pursuit of learning. To add to the woes of our first, and therefore our most homesick days on the campus, we were soon in the midst of an epidemic of "flu." 1 wo-thirds of our number, together with about the same proportion of the other students, fell victims to this malady and had the unique experience of being nursed instead of taught by the faculty. At this time too, we were saddened by the death of a member of our class, Daniel J. Currie, of Defuniac Springs, Florida. But the fall passed, as all falls must, and with the beginning of the Christmas holidays the horrors of the S. A. T. C. became a thing of the past. Only a hundred and twenty-three of our number returned to college in January, but we elected our officers in the following fashion: J. P. Price, President; G. H. Cornelson, Vice-President; and J. M. Richards, Secretary and Treasurer, and set to work to readjust ourselves to the new conditions. And it was indeed a readjustment. Instead of being privates, corporals, and even sergeants, we had to realize that we were only Freshmen, and to conduct ourselves accordingly. In time we attained at least a fair measure of success in our efforts to do this, and settled down to real work. We cannot claim to have distinguished ourselves especially in either athletics or scholarship during this term, but still our moderate successes gave us hope for the future. rage l/j)-5l)t It was possibly with rather swelled heads that we return to college the following September to find ourselves Sophomores. Under the leadership of George Cornelson, we soon learned to bear ourselves in our new position, however. At this stage of our journey we were joined by quite a number of students who had dropped out of other classes to take their places in the fighting forces of democracy and we received them gladly. On the football field we have done our share and more. We have furnished Coach Crayton with two guards and a halfback (captam-elect for ne.\t year), as well as a whole team of faithful scrubs. On the basketball floor we have succeeded in winning the class championship, and we expect to be represented on the varsity five. One of our achievements of which we are most proud is the establishing of the cap wearing custom among Freshmen. May it accomplish its purpose, the creation of class distinction wthout hazing. The future is a closed book to us as yet. Still we close this record wth the hope and exjjectation that each year wU find us achieving more and greater things for the honor of old Davidson.

Page sevenly-ihree ; Freshman Class History j'^^c!^^ NY history of a Freshman Class must necessarily be in form of a prophecy. ^ Therefore, we maintain that any band of knowledge-seekers possessing that confidence which is serene in the face of exammations and Sophs ; that integrity which is its own rich reward ; that consciousness of genuineness that best attribute in college men and that tenacity of purpose which is essential to success in any undertaking is, among these walls of learning, in camouflage of Fresh and Green. If you would have these things, yea, and even more, go ye among the Class of Twenty-three, wheresoever you may, and study her possibilities and beware. Early in that favored month of September, from every Dixie State we came and only that diffusion of Freshmen between Charlotte and Davidson was reversed by lack of room in the college for their expansion and growth. Yet before the coloring of the leaves in that memorable fall this same hundred and eighty puzzles of human mechanism had become educated in the ways and means of a college Freshman. In the early fall all eyes were centered upon the gridiron activities and it only required a few work-outs to prove that some of our last year's losses in football material would be filled by competent men from the Freshman Class. As a result, two of these football warriors, F. M. Cassell and Malloy Davis, wear the much-to-be-desired "D." In basketball we did our best, both in class and intercollegiate games. The work of Shepherd and Crawford is worthy of mention and we may keep our eyes on these two promising stars. They will no doubt be ranking lower berths on the Pullman next year in exchange for their upper as substitutes this year on the road trips. The mysteries of baseball and track have not been revealed, but we can safely say that "Ty" Cobb and Thorpe could not but admire the form displayed by our men in both these lines of activities. Beware, ye wearers of the "D," lest that star which ought to repose within your "D' block blend its five points into a block upon the ambitious chest of some uncouth but worthy Freshman. Pogc aUn-fn In scholarship you will find us there. Rising serenely above tortures and interrup- tions caused by parades, to say nothing of facts to be learned in five subjects and drill, we see names perched high above the border line of sixty. Three students, Ogden, Davidson, and Thames, because of their accuracy in shooting in this battle of scholarship supremacy, find their reward in being listed Honor Roll men, for they, while their professors slept, were cracking tickets every night. These are but a few of the things that we have achieved and these few facts, we, the humble chronicler of the Class of Twenty-three, under the guidance of our capable officers: Cassell, President; Tuller, Vice-President; and Adams, Secretary-Treasurer, feel that our college work and achievement has but begun.

Cravton, Coach The resignation of "Bill" Fetzer as David- son's coach left vacant a position which any man would have had difficulty in filling. Coach Crayton not only succeeded him in that position but performed his duties in such a way as to bring honor to himself and the college and to win for himself a warm place in the heart of every Davidson man. Giving up hts business career temporarily in order that his Alma Mater might not have to content herself with an inferior athletic instructor, he turned out a team which, if not a brilliant success from a standpoint of games won, at least put up a hard, clean fight against all comers. Here's to you, Coach! i**"> W. F. Hall, "D," Manager Did you ever hear any one knock our foot- ball manager? No; and you never will. Frank handled his job to perfection and proved that a manager can be successful and still be popular with his team. Not only did he arrange an excellent schedule and pro- vide the Wildcats with the best of accom- modations, but he succeeded in making the season one of the most successful from the financial standpoint that Davidson has yet en- joyed. May we have other managers like him. Page hundred forl\)-one QUlPM kivd. >l u D. P. Douglas, "D^" Right End Weight. 160 Height, 5 ft.. 10 in T*his year Pitts has developed into one of the best ends that ever wore the "D." A hard fighter, a fierce tackier, and a brilliant re- ceiver of passes, he was the despair of many a back field. The man who could get around him on an end run is yet to be found, and the way he got down under punts was a delight to every lover of football. He was in the play for every minute of the game and his work was a large factor in the showing the Wild- cats made against their opponents. L. O. Hammett, "D" Lefl Tackle Weight. 180 Height. 6 ft.. I m. Hammett came to us this season with a great reputation derived from his playing at Clem- son during the previous year and nobly has he sustamed it. In not a smgle game did he fail to distinguish himself, and no back has yet found a hole in the vicinity of Davidson's left tackle. He presented a veritable stone- wall to the enemy's offensive, and in turn opened up many a hole in their lines. He has been chosen to lead the team for next year and we are expecting great things from him. B. W. ROMEFELT, **D'* Left Guard Weight. 180 Height, 6 ft. "Romeo" did great work as a substitute on the famous Red and Black machine of 1917. Last year he answered Uncle Sam's call and so missed a place on Davidson's team, but this fall he returned to fill a much-needed place in the line-up. His playing was of the high- est order and not a few guards have learned, to their sorrow, what sort of a man he is. He was a fit running mate for Hammett. and we are looking forward to his strengthening the line next year. Page one hundred forly-ihree D. R. LaFar, "D" Right Guard Weight. 175 Height, 5 ft.. 10 in. .^Ithouoh playing his firsi year of varsity foot- ball. "Doc" held down his position in such a way as to reflect credit to the team and to cover himself with glory.

"Doc has fwo more years at Davidson and should de- velop into a wonderful In S. R. Brady, "D* Cenler Weight, 175 Height, 5 ft.. 9 in. Sam is certainly right there with the goods when it comes to being a football player. Shifted from guard to center to fill the gap left by Billy Crouch, he proved himself an able successor and was one of the mainstays of the line in every game. His passing was unusually accurate, and he seldom failed to open up a hole when called upon to do so. or to break up any play that was directed against his position. Sam's unfailing good humor also did much lo strengthen the morale of the team. J. C. McMaster, "D**" Right Tackle Weight. 182 Height, 5 ft., 1 1 in. "Big Mac" tower of strength on the right side of Davidson's l:ne and the plays of the opponents which came to grief just opposite the right tackle. His defensive work, coupled with his ability to open holes in the opposing lines, made him one of the most valuable men Davidson has had for years. He has won a high place for himself in college football circles and will be greatly missed when the call is sent out for material next year. Page one hundred forly-four W. I. Johnston, "D*" Halfback Weight, 170 Height. 5 fl., II in. "Watch Johnnie Johns'on run!" These weie ihe words of many a Davidson man as he witnessed the N. C. State and Carohna games, and run he certainly did. His skirting of tSe opposing ends and receiving forward passes were equal to any seen in North Caro- lina football this year. In addition to h.s work as a ground gainer. Johnnie did spec- tacular work on the defensive, making tackle after tackle. His playing was a feature throughout the season and if he was not leav- ing school he would be captain next year. F. M. Cassell. "D" Fullback Weight. 155 Height, 5 ft., 6 in. As a sidestepper and punier, "Froggie" hard to beat, and this accounts for the {i that he is one of the fe V Freshmen who ha won a letter at Davidcc nt ye addition to his ability ilong the lines, tackier and unusually good backing up the line. His playing in the P and Furman games was a feature. S. M. Davis, "D" Leji End Weight, 170 Height, 6 ft. Malloy is the second Freshman to make the Varsity at Davidson this year and he richly deserved his position. Starting off the season at guard, he was shified to an end in mid- season and proved h.mself equally capable ol holding down that position. His playing was of that steady variety that makes football teams and promises well for his future career on the gridiron. Page hundred forty-five Football Season Wildcat gridiron season opened up on Sprunt Field, with the Quakers I HE as worthy opponents. Besides winning the game by a 33 to count, the Red and Black had the honor of scoring the first collegiate touchdown in the South and possibly in the United States. On the following week the Wake Forest outfit was taken into camp and Davidson came home with the big end of a 2 I to score. The Wildcats seemed to be going strong and it looked like a banner year was in store. But alas! 'Twas on the water-logged field at Clemson that the winning streak received its abrupt shock. The Tigers nosed out a 7 to victory over the Presbyterians. Coming back in a crippled condition, the next game found Davidson facing one of the strongest elevens in the South. Fighting marvelously though, the Wildcats held the Washington and Lee warriors to a lone touchdown. In this contest Jack Black, David- son's crack half, received a blow which broke his hand and kept him out of the game the remainder of the year. Just to prove that two defeats were not enough to make them squeal, the Wildcats journeyed down into the Palmetto State and tore away a 7 to victory from the University of South Carolina. The Hoodo could not be ousted however, and the Presbyterians dropped their next four games to what were possibly their four heaviest opponents. The V. M. I. Cadets grabbed a I 4 to 7 victory and knocked LaFar out of the game in the bargain. Georgia Tech. followed, with a 33 to victory, the Wildcats fighting every inch of the way. The following week Coach Bill Fetzer's charges from N. C. State triumphed over the Page one hundred fort\)-six I QUIftS^d CDXNKtS t"Q-.ft^a^— f^Jk lighter Davidson eleven by a 36 to 6 score. The University of North Carolina came next and they grabbed a touchdouTi and a field goal, wnning by a 1 to count. Much to the surprise of all, the Presbyterian College journeyed up and held the Wildcats to a scoreless tie. With blood in their eyes and out for revenge, the Wildcats hooked horns u-ith Furman in the final clash of the season. The 41 to 14 victory speaks for all that could be put in this column concerning the slaughter. Although winning only four of its eleven games and tying, the Wildcats scored 1 35 points to their opponents' 121. Some of the strongest elevens in the South were met, and although possibly not victorious, the scars of the fight which the Red and Black machine inflicted are remembered by the opponents.

Baseball Season Jl HEN Coach "Bill" Fetzer sent out the call for baseball candidates in the spring of 1919, nine letter men answered the call. To this as a nucleus, many substitutes and Freshmen swelled the number to over a score and j) prospects looking bright for a banner year on the diamond. After a few weeks of practice, the Wildcats opened up with the •'Phr Charlotte. The big leaguers romped off with a 1 to victory, but the college lads left a firm impression that they were m the game. Another coat of white- wash was administered by N. C. State when the Raleigh boys walked off with a 4 to victory. Unable to shake the jynx, the team allowed Elon a 3 to 1 victory. The game was hard fought, but errors and weak hitting spelled defeat. On the following day, however, the Wildcats got together m the early mnmgs and secured a two-run lead on Elon, which they held until the end, the final score being 2 to I In the following game with the U. of Va., Clark pitched masterful ball, and the Old Dominion pill tossers were let down with a 5 to defeat "Railroad" struck out thirteen men, allowed only three scattered hits, and he himself figured in four of David- son's runs by his three hits and clever base-running. The Easter trip during the following week proved a disaster, however. The team was not hitting nor was the support good. The majority of the games were nerve-racking affairs, going into extra innings, and by the time the team returned, it was well shot to pieces. In the first game. University of N. C. won out in a fifteen-inning affair by a 4 to 3 count. The team played in ill-luck and deserved the game except for a bad break of affairs which robbed them of victory. On the following day Elon was encountered. The Christians won by a 2 to I score in eleven innings. Both teams were fighting hard, but the morning's travel told on the Wildcats and they cracked at the crucial minute. This made a total of 26 innings for two games. In the third game. Trinity put the skids under the Red and Black nine by a 6 to 2 score. This was the first time since the opening game that Davidson had lost by such a score. The Methodists were hitting hard and the Wildcats were helpless before Murray's assortment of benders. On the following day, N. C. State administered another defeat, winning from the Presbyterians by an 8 to 3 score. The boys from Raleigh were in a scrapping mood and they proceeded to romp off with an easy victory. Davidson's few hits were kept well scattered and there was little chance for any scoring. In the final game Trinity won again, this time by the scant score of 2 to I . The game went to twelve innings and was a pitcher's battle for fair. Neither side was hitting heavily, but both were putting up an air-tight defence. Clark pitched wonderful ball all season and with any resemblance of support would have won the majority of his games easily. Too much cannot be said about Railroad's playing, his hitting being a decided factor in the contests which he hurled. Currie pitched good ball also, but, as usual, the team was having one of its usual off days, and consequently "Buck" lost the majority of his games. Miley didn't get Page one hundrcj fiflyz-tn^o his arm into condition during the whole year and was not used to a great extent. "Bill" shone in spurts, but old "Maggie" wouldn't get right somehow or other. "Cop" Johnson took care of the receiving department and held down the same in great style. Time after time did his faithful peg chp men off of first who anticipated a journey toward second too earnestly. The infield was ably held down by Cassell, Sample. Ratchford, and McArn. While in the field this quartet were continually on the go, and their "pep" was well manifested to the spectators by their encouraging words to the hurler. A continual line of chatter, mixed with a good brand of fielding, made this a well-rounded infield. The outfield was taken care of by Miller, Spann, and Richards. Nothing in the nature of wallops to the outer gardens ever got within the reach of this trio without being sealed to die before- hand. TTiey also represented a large percentage of the team's offensive power. Each could handle the old stick very effectively and were dangerous men at the bat. Clark, Spann. and Miller were lost to next year's team and it is a safe bet their positions will be hard to fill if they are to be occupied as this trio did so faithfully. The rest of the squad will be back and all indications point to a banner year for the Wildcat diamond dusters. Page one hundred fift^-three 920 Baseball Schedule Mar ch 24 : Oak Ridge, at Davids^ N.

Basketball Season ^^^^^ LAYING every college in the two Carolinas except two during the recent basketball season, winning four games and losing nine, a record which must not be despised at all, considering the teams encountered, the Wild- cats have every reason to be proud of their basketball quint. Of these thirteen games, only four were played on the local floor, the remaining nine being played on two strenuous and tiresome trips. During the early part of the season the team was hampered a great deal, and as a result, got under way with a heavy handicap. When practice began there were only three of last year's Varsity back: Chalmers, Schenck, and Hall. Harrington was kept out of play by doctor's orders. In the very first game the team suffered the misfortune of losing Schenck, stellar guard, when he wrenched his knee severely. He was unable to play any more of the season. In the first game, which was with the University of N. C. on the hill, the Wildcats trounced the Tar Babies 3 1 to 20. The team left on a five-day trip through North Carolina the following week and lost to each of the following teams: Guilford, 29-22; N. C. State, 30-10; Wake Forest, 24-12; U. of N. C, 23-22; Elon, 24-18. The spectacular stand made against the University at Chapel Hill featured the trip. Returning home, the Clemson Tigers got away with a 28 to 25 victory. The proposed Virginia trip was cancelled on account of the violent form the influenza had taken in that State. The University of S. C. was taken into camp next, 27 to 25, in the most exciting game on the local floor. The squad next left for a four-day invasion of South Carolina. In the first game Wofford was smothered, 38-1 7. The next two games were dropped to Clemson, 38-27, and P. C, 37-30. On the final day of the trip the University was again beaten by a 28 to 17 score. In the game with N. C. State, a day after the trip, the Wildcats lost to the Tech quint, 37-19. The summary gives the quint a record of four games won and nine lost. Even though they were thus outgamed 2 to I , the opponents only rolled up 349 points against Davidson's 310. Page one humWeJ fin])-cighl In Coach Hengeveld, the team had a man who was always on the job, ready with plenty of suggestions as to playing the game. The "Coach's" patience and perseverance was wonderful, he always being there to dispute any argument not in favor of the five, even after the disastrous N. C. trip. Manager Allison was a peach. The trips planned gave Davidson a chance to meet practically every team in the Carohnas. The team was entertained at the best places possible while on the trips, and "Bob" was popular— especially around meal time. In Captain Chalmers at guard, the team had a leader who never knew the word "lose" until the final whistle blew. He was on the job constantly, encouraging the men and putting a new impetus into the play. "D. M." will graduate this year and his loss to the team both as player and captain will be keenly felt. Brice took care of the other guard position. "S. D." was the quickest man in foot- work on the team and his spectacular dribbles through the opposing five were baffling indeed. Toward the end of the season Brice was locating the basket accurately and made an ideal runnmg guard. Romefelt, alternating at center and guard, was the mainstay of the defense. Time after time the opponents' offense ended uith "Romeo" as a stumbling block. Besides his defensive work, Romefelt also was second highest individual scorer on the team. Hall, better known as "Prep," held down one of the forward positions. "Prep" was not used on the offensive much, but was a mainstay in the floor work and assisted greatly in the defensive work. He \\ill also graduate, having played on the team for the past two years. Roberts, at the other forward, was the mainstay of the offensive. The Wilmington lad shot baskets of the spectacular variety from any angle, and will run a close race for an all-star forward position. "Bill" scored half of the points made by the Wildcats. Page one hundred fifl}j-ninc Streibich, long, lanky center, assured the Red and Black quint of the tip-off at any time he was jumping, and was thus responsible for the beginnmg of any offensive attack launched. "High Pockets" will be back next year, and great things are being looked for with him at the center position.

Many of the former stars were in the army or navy and did not return at all during the year. Only one intercollegiate meet was held, that one being with the University of South Carolina, the Wildcats winning 56 to 34. Field day was held during the middle of April. As usual the winners in this were chosen to represent Davidson on the cinder path. Harry Murray was the highest in individual scoring, with 1 6 points. McQueen, Craig, and Brice followed with 1 each. The winners were as follows: 100-yard dash, Murray, 10.4 sec. ; 220-yard dash, Brice, 23.4 sec; 440-yard dash, Murray, 57.5 sec; 880-yard dash, Finley, 2 min., 22 sec; 1-mile, Craig, 5 min., 4 sec; 2-mile, Craig, I 1 min., 42.5 sec; high jump, McQueen, 5 ft., 10 in.; pole vault, McQueen, 10 ft. ; broad jump, McCloy. 20 ft., 5 in.; shot put, McLeod, 31 ft., 10.5 in.; discus, Beale, 95 ft., 1 m. The meet with South Carolina followed the next week. The Wildcats walked off with a 56 to 34 victory. The Red and Black completely outclassed the losers on the cinder path. However, in the field events Carolina made a comeback and honors were evenly divided. In the track events Davidson scored 4 firsts, 4 seconds, and 3 thirds. Carolina scored 1 first, 1 second, and 2 thirds. In the field events Davidson scored 2 firsts, 2 seconds, and 1 third. Carolina scored 2 firsts, 2 seconds, and 4 thirds. One first place was tied. The stars of the meet were Hampton of Carolina, who scored 1 7 points in five events, and Murray of Davidson, who scored 1 6 points in four events. Final score: Davidson 56, S. C. 34. During the season, one of the college records was broken. Murray, in the 220-yard dash of the S. C. meet, crossed the tape in 22 2-5 seconds. The previous record of 23 seconds was made by Gilchrist, '15, and had stood for five years. Although no other records were broken or tied, three other official records are worthy of mention. Jim McQueen's jump of 5 ft., 10 in. came within 1 inch of his former high jump record. I 'age hundred sijcivj-l/ir. In the Carolina meet Jim also cleared the bar in the pole vault at 10 ft., 9 m. This is only 1 inch under the record held by Wooten, '96. "Hack" Murray in the Carolina meet made a leap of 21 ft., 5 in. in the broad jump. The former record is held by Wooten, '96, 22 feet.

C. had demor- alized all college activities during the fall term, the Class of 1919 decided to issue the Quips and Cranks as usual. With a late start the work was gotten well under way. and indications pointed to an excel- lent Annual. However, due to circumstances which we have never fully under- stood, the book failed to make its appearance after it was apparently ready to come out, and the members of the Class of 1919 voted to have their pictures in the back of the 1920 Quips and Cranks in exchange for such engravings as we were able to use. For these same engravings we are very much indebted to the 1919 Annual which was to have been. Page (mo InmJicJ lri>ent\f-lai> QUlKgJ^d. >l n — ; Ser CIass RuFus Rivers Clarke ESTILL. S. C.

We couldn't associate this big fel- low with the "Railroad" of a year ago but there he was. Whether the hardships of Plattsburg or the gay life at "Harvard" is responsible for this change none of us could decide. Rufus "certainly has grown"—in ev- evylhmg except his own opinion; he is still the big-hearted friend he used to be. Some of us call him "The Two-Hundred-Pound War Baby," but in spite of this nickname, he is a "Man" on the campus, a man of influence, and a man everybody likes. When in after years we look back and see this picture each of us will think, "Here's a man I'm glad I knew."

Cullum spends few week-ends with us and even during the week one has to be a close observer to detect his presence on the campus.

In his sleep he was heard expounding the nomenclature of the Rnfield and many other things he learned at the "Cap-busters" school in Ohio.

Page Into hundred ihiriy-nii — History of 1919 ^JEGAN September 2nd, 19)5, finished May 28th, 1919. Between those dates are the incidents and accidents that go to make up the history of the Class of 1919. History may repeat itself, and often does, but if our history is a repetition of any other class, we are from Missouri. In fact, as a class we began our career, completed three-fourths of it, took a brief vacation, during which we won a war, and then came back and finished on schedule time. That alone would make history for any class. But a review from old college papers and good memories bring back days that all Nineteeners will hold dear. No Senior can ever forget that memorable day when 157 (men, boys, country- men, city sports. Chinamen, Cubans, and others) first saw the sun rise on the stately old edifice that has been the center of college activities for over fifty years. Nor can thev forget that night when they took part in the last grand review of the shirt-tail brigade, commanded by General Sophomore and reviewed by the passengers of the 8:00 o'clock train. Those happy days (?) are gone forever. Then there was cutting the book, individual practices in harmony, the art of hitting the floor from the top story of a double-decker without being disturbed, and when the snow came mixed with hail, our lives were also mixed with hail. More happy days (?) that are only memories. But these were not all ; such events as Annual Fresh picture. Fresh parades, dumping parties, found 1919 too hard a bunch and peacefully fell on sleep. ' 1 he fall of 1916 found old 1 9 again breaking records, when our class roll numbered 1)2, the largest ever and the second to pass the 100 mark. Bloody Sophs we were called, but all our deeds of that nature were imaginary, because the Great Sanhedrin had given orders to the contrary. Still the Fresh were aware of the fact that we spent a part of our time here. On February 5th, 1917, we celebrated the last of the Soph banquets which, in spite of the impending war, the stinginess of some members, the high- brow jokes of another member, and the hot weather (?), it was the last and most enjoyable affair of them all. War declared, and large numbers went home to farm and never returned. Our Junior year was not satisfactory from the standpoint of literary accomplishments, because almost every one was undecided as to whether he should obey his impulse to enlist or remain to fulfill "the duty of the hour. " There was a draft stirring some mem- bers, which, before the end of the year, blew several members clear away. Toward Commencement, even the brave hearts began to grow faint as to graduation, so naughty had the "Hun" become. The most singular happening of the year was that during Junior Speaking— the weather was good for the first time in seventeen years. Next an omission, during which time Davidson College became Camp Davidson, and the dignified Senior was put in the same rank and class with the green Fresh. The S. A. 7 . C. ruled supreme, but then the Germans quit, the S. A. T. C. quit, and the ' college authonties sent out an S. O. S. for 1 9 to come back and keep things going until the college could take care of itself. We came thirty strong and have proved that the ' old class spirit that has been characteristic of 1 9 was not lost in the whirlpool of events of the past few months. But with perfect organization that is necessary to efficiency, '19 took up her task and the results an Annual that is seldom equaled h^ anp class (?), the Davidsonian put back on a collegiate basis from whence it had fallen during the S. A. 7 . C, the Y. M. C. A. was restored to a pre-war basis (but we claim little credit for this, as this was the work of the Class of 11), the literary societies were rejuvenated and their historic halls have again resounded with the lines that only active members of Paf(c inio hundred forly the Durham Club can handle, many are the Freshmen that have been started on the way of Demosthenese and Cicero (not Gaither). there are other duties that were performed in the days of reconstruction, but we don't care to seem egotistical. This completes the purely historical facts in the life of '19, but a study of class characteristics is necessary in a historical sketch. The one branch of college activities that is most stressed here is athletics. Has '19 done her share in this line? The Twenty-three "D's" that have been awarded sons of '19 stand as an answer. The awarding of four of these to one man his Fresh year is an example of individual prowess. The class football cup has been held one year, while the basketball trophy has twice fallen our way. Not a class of athletics, but with enough to keep the class balanced and as evidence that we are not weaklings. Honor roll "studs," "bull" artists, golfers, boneheads, social lions, bug students, and spendthrifts are other classes of men that go to make up this cosmopolitan band that has endured to the end. This one quality has been the deciding factor in our success in the finishing on time, because if we had been ahke we would never have returned. Last of our records that we put above all others is the part taken by members in the war just finished. There are other classes that have grand records of service, but without reserve, we put ours in comparison with any and all. Of the thirty that will be in at the finish, ten have worn the gold bar of a shavetail, while one has risen to the place where his classmates call him "General," although he consented to drill as a private in the S. A. T. C. on condition that he retain his rank. But of the other members, their field of service has carried them across the continent to do their bit in any land or on any sea that duty called. The first man to make the supreme sacrifice for his country was David Reid Poole, who spent two years as a member of 19. He heads the honor roll for Davidson College. Again, in the memorable battle of Chateau Thierry, where the last and most desperate of the German dnves were halted, another Nineteener was among the number of heroic marines who gave their lives for liberty. This man was Reid D. Cranford. The third member to give his life for his country was Don Wearn, who died in a hospital in France. Exact figures of each man's service and rank are not obtainable, but we know that they did their part. And as a class, our ways must part and each individual takes up the struggle for himself, the more confident that success vsnll crowd his efforts because of his connection with the Class of '19. The terrors of Bolshevikis will cause no alarm, for their associates were conquered in the past four years. "I hus ends the history of 1919.

It practically acts as a compulsory sav- ings bank, compelling the saving of small sums which, in many cases, would otherwise be frittered away. Moreover, the savings are protected by insurance, as the contract guar- antees that, in the event of death before the policy matures the return can never be less than the full value of the policy. The endowments are made to mature in ten, fifteen or twenty years, as desired. In case of permanent disability the policy holder is guaranteed an annual income equal to one-tenth of the face value of the policy. In case of death by accident the double indemnity guarantees the payment of double the face value of the policy. The plan of the United States government in urging all soldiers to take $10,000 of insurance is an example worthy of every young man's considera- tion. Take out a life insurance pclicy as soon as you can pay for it.
