PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY THE Senior Class of THE LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY

and A. and M. COLLEGE Dedication

a s a token of profound esteem and in recognition of his untiring devotion to his Allma M ater and loyal services to his State this, the eleventh volume of the Gumbo is respectfully dedicated to tbe H onorable J o hn Randolp h Th ornton member of the B oard of Supervisors and United States Senator John Randolph Thornton

OHN RANDOLPH THORNTON was bom at the plantation home of his father near Bayou Goula in Iberville Parish, Lou isiana, on August 25th, 1846. His father, Charles A. Thornton, and mother, whose maiden name was Cornelia Randolph, had moved to Louisiana from Virginia shortly prior to that date. After attending other schools, he went to the Louisiana State University, or State Seminary, as it was then called, at that time located near the City of Alexandria, and was a cadet in that institution for a period of one year, leaving it upon the out break of the Civil W ar to enter the ranks of the Confederate Army. While only sixteen years of age, he enlisted as a private in Company “G,” Second Louisiana Cavalry, under Colonel W. G. Vincent, and served faithfully and with distinction under that command in the Trans-Mississippi Department until the close of the war. An incident of this period illus trates at one and the same time two of the most striking attri butes of Judge Thornton’s character: the unselfishness of his nature and his devotion to his state; for during the progress of the conflict between the states he was offered a commission in a company organized in another state, but declined, preferring to serve in the ranks of a Louisiana command. A t the close of the war he moved to Rapides Parish, where he has lived ever since. His struggles after the termination of the great conflict were typical of those of the majority of the Confederate soldiers. He became a farmer, ploughing the same horse which he had ridden in the army. At night, though weary from the day’s work, he studied to complete his educa tion and to become a member of the legal profession. In 1877, having finished his studies in law under late Governor James Jeffries, he was admitted to the Bar by the Supreme Court and began the practice of law in Alexandria, Louisiana, at which place he has engaged in that vocation ever since. Judge Thornton also took a most prominent part in the work of reconstruction. He became a member of the famous “White Camelia” and was arrested twice for his activities in contending for white supremacy. In 1879, he was elected Judge of Rapides Parish and earned the distinction of being the first Democrat elected to that office after the war. In 1898, 8 Foreword

O impart to those who read these pages some impression, though an inadequate one, of the spirit of loyalty which pervades the stu dents of the Louisiana State University; to express in some slight way our gratitude to those who, by their sympathy and friend ship, have done so much for this edition of the GUMBO; in a less degree to record some of the incidents and accidents which compose the history of the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Eleven— this is our purpose. If the reader is made to under stand but a tithe of the boundless love and loyalty which has ever surrounded us since matriculation, which has been with us during the moments of misfortune as well as during the hours of triumph, and which we trust we are taking with us into the wider world of the future, then will the months and weeks of work and worry over the completion of this volume be amply rewarded, and our mission be done.

18 Senior Class History

A PPY is that nation which has no history.” And if that same great principle applies to graduating classes, then happy, thrice happy are we, the Class of Nineteen-eleven, whose history is so largely a matter of future ex pectations. The deeds that we have done, though by no means insignificant, pale into nothingness when we contemplate the great things which we are going to do. For college students are not supposed to make history. The larger part of their time is consumed with studying History— or at least, Dr. Fleming would have it so. College students are not expected to do great deeds. Most of their time should be spent in preparing for a life of great deeds in the future. Still, our four years here have not been entirely uneventful. W e have endeavored so to live that we shall not leave here to-day and be forgotten to-morrow. As long as there is left one stone upon another at this historic spot, so long will the pale, over-worked student gather around the flowing bowl (alias “growler”) and relate, with admiring and reverential whispers, tales of the Heroes of the “Rebellion of 1910,” or of the Immortal Four. And even should this noble institution go the way of all “The glory that was Greece And the grandeur that was Rome,” even then, should the geologists excavate the historic ruins, they may still find upon a certain spot of pavement a half effaced legend done in red paint greeting them,

A gay and handsome college man Lay on his bed o f pain, All hope w as past, his life ebbed fast, He ne’er would rise again. "H ave you no sweetheart, fair and true ? The^ whispered o ’er his bed, “ Whom you would tell a last farewell ? ” The young man softly said:

“ There’s Daisy back in Opelous, And Bess in Sandy Hill, There’s Millie down in Port Colon, And Kate in Plattenville. There’s darling Jess in Iverness, Oh, let her know to-day ! And write to Sue in Newcomb, too, Or H —1 will be to pay. ”

The watchers stared in mild surprise, And then they said once more, “And tell us pray, without delay The girl whom you adore ; The girl whom you have sw o rn to love, And bring both wealth and fame; Your promised wife, your hope and life— Quick, let us know her name.”

“in Baton Rouge m y Lucille lives, Go phone her quick,” he said; “And Carrie call from dear Glenn Fall, And Ann from old Fort Ed. There’s Mamie up in Shreveport And Mattie in Whitehall. ” The young man sighed, “it’s time I died, I ’ve sworn to love them all. ”

61 SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES Mother Goose Rhymes for Freshies

Little Jack Horner Dodged ’round the corner, And sprinted down Lafayette; I haven’t a doubt He was running out And ’t was Hogan he almost met. J. P. Cole is a merry old soul, And a merry old soul is he; He put on his slippers, And he called for the clippers, And clipped all the Freshies in “C.” “Where are you going, my pretty maid?” “I’m going to Physics, sir,” she said. “What is the lesson, my pretty maid?” “I haven’t a notion, sir,” she said. “How are you passing, my pretty maid?” “From 90 to 95,” she said. “How do you bluff him, my pretty maid?” “Oh, Sammy’s dead easy,” she sweetly said. Hey dey diddle, the cat and the fiddle, The cow jumped over the moon, The Freshies got clipped, The clippers got shipped. And we all walked out at noon. Needles and pins! Needles and pins! When you “crap out” the other guy wins. As I was walking up Third Street, Third Street was very dirty. There I met the Commandant, Who gave me 50-30. Oh Commandant! Oh Commandant! How could you be so cruel? When comes your turn below to burn I want to tote the fuel. Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn. To wake the cadets at six in the morn. Oh! where’s little Meggie? She’s fast asleep. In the cold, cold water, sixty feet deep. Sing a song of six-bits, Bottles full of beer; Shake the “craps” and let ’em roll, Sorley isn’t near. When the bottle’s opened, The beer begins to foam; Whoever wins the crap game Gets the megaphone. 66

69 FRESHMEN FRESHMEN FRESHMEN Fire! Fire! Fire!

Come hither all “Freshies,” and ye shall be told Of heroic heroes and of deeds that were bold, Of how the great institution W as saved from destruction B y fire, in the brave days of old.

The night was so stormy not a star could be found; The cadets were all sleeping in slumber profound, When an ear-splitting shout Through the darkness rang out, And echoed from “A ” to Indian Mound.

T was the dread cry of fire, and at the terrible name, It looked as if the Old Agri. Hall was aflame, And the panic so spread That it brought from his bed Our leader, of military fame.

From the windows of “F ” the flames, mounting high, W ere seen to fairly incrimson the sky. As the horrible view Its spectators drew, Strong men were heard to groan and “Freshies” to cry.

But many quite bravely stuck to their posts, Yelling and whooping as though they’d seen ghosts; Till the Com, as we’ve said, Arose from his bed And came from his dwelling to marshall his hosts.

Then Freshy Turregano and another cadet, Whose name I haven’t been able to get, Seized an empty bucket A n d thoughtfully took it, And left it by the fire; it may be there yet.

But now our chief, with military form, Prepares mighty deeds of valor to perform; A s “ long roll” is sounded And the cadets, still confounded, Fall in, he rides over and directs the storm. 73 Charlie and the President next come on the run In a cab— Barney’s auto was plainly outdone. It seems they’d been found W hile still out in town, And told of the fire, which was why they had come. The order soon given, the cadets at the double Left the campus hot foot for the scene of trouble; But there, burning bright In the dark, gloomy night, Were two dry goods boxes, a little trash, and some stubble! Upon a January night, There they fought this noble fight Which fame and glory still delight To spread throughout the nation. O! When will Louisiana men W ith such an action fill a pen, Or the University have again Such an awful conflagration?

H E N it comes to reigning—-real reigny reigning— King Perkins I reigns rings around all comers. A photo graph of this great potentate ap pears above. His majesty, as will be noted, is of medium stature; his stern fea tures are chiseled with cares of state; his eyes are compelling, and reveal the force fulness of his character; his carriage is military and regal. King Perkins I was chosen King of the Aggies one memorable night in 27 F by popular acclama tion. Since that time he has ruled with an iron hand, and sometimes even with a touch of despotism. Such measures were necessary, however, for the dove of peace has not always hov ered over his realms. In some instances, actual violence and turbulence of all kinds have occurred to make the head lie un easy which wore the crown. Rival claimants to the throne have arisen from time to time, among the most important of which was the late Prince Ponder. In the settling of the dis pute with Prince Ponder, the king displayed some of his most knightly qualities. He confronted the belligerent Prince vis-a- vis, and demanded that he swear allegiance forevermore to King Perkins I as the only rightful ruler in Aggie Realm, and do homage to His Majesty by taking off a pair of reddish- purple socks which the Prince wore at the time. This the Prince refused to do and even went so far as to question our noble King’s title to the throne. His Royal Highness immedi ately and promptly swatted him a beautiful swat in the neigh borhood of the Adam’s apple, which, in the words of the King, caused him to taste apple cider for a week, and the nefarious and rebellious activities of the rival prince were forever quelled. As a whole, his reign has been one of the most memorable in Aggie history. The Reveille has chronicled many of the events, achievements, and glories from time to time and has published the Royal Edicts of His Majesty. The career of this mighty dictator has been always tinted with romance and chivalry, and his motto, which inspired the sleeping ambition in his soul and gave him the determination to accomplish his many glorious achievements, is embodied in the beautiful and famous lines: “Be an Aggie, and they’re all Aggies with you; Be their King, and you’re King alone.”

The Military Department

H E aim of the Military Department is to de velop the student physically, mentally, and morally, so as to equip him for successful and honorable life as an individual; for the service of his state and country as a law- abiding, public-spirited citizen; and for ef fective service to the nation upon the field of battle, when needed. The cadet’s physical development is attained through the various drills and exercises. The stooped shoulders are ele vated and squared, and the head is raised and carried erect; the slow steps are quickened, and the slouchy, narrow-chested youth is broadened and straightened through regular hours, early rising, and setting up exercises. He learns habits of sol dierly neatness, and ac quires a feeling of pride in his uniform and in his personal appear ance. T he first in impor tance of the mental and moral effects of the drill and discipline is the lesson of respect for authority. The new boy is apt to chafe under the neces sity of obeying his old friend, “Tom,” who used to work in his father’s store to earn his college expenses and is now a cadet officer, but he soon finds that disobedience is a mistake which brings unpleasant consequences in its train, for the whole military system is back of “Tom” ; and so the cadet absorbs his foremost military principle: that orders are orders, and must be obeyed. The military training induces habits of concentration upon the business in hand, through the necessity of constant alert ness for the sharp command in ranks, and of instant compliance therewith; and of attention to detail, learned in the minutiae of drill, and in the exacting requirements of military correspond ence with the Com mandant’s office. Under the military system the cadet learns individual re sponsibility, for the consequences of his shortcomings are vis ited upon him and upon no one else.

78 Personal honor and truthfulness are prime articles of the military code at L. S. U., and the elevated standard main tained by the cadets themselves is fostered by the authorities. Cadet sentiment decrees that no assistance must be given or received in the classroom, and sees that this rule is respected of all. The cadet learns respect for the rights of others through the barrack discipline, for he has to share all the conveniences of the room with his roommates, and has to take his turn in providing the fuel and water for the common use, and in sweep ing out the room for inspection. As the young man mingles with others in the class room, the ranks, and the barracks, he takes their measure, and they his, and his character is formed by the devel opment of manly qual ities and the rejection of faulty ones. Patriotism is fos tered in the cadet through the daily sight of the flag, and through the respect shown to it each night when “To the Color” or “The Star Spangled Banner” is played as it is gently lowered from the staff, the cadets standing quietly at attention. The military ceremonies appeal to his martial spirit, and inspire respect for his uniform and for his position. The value to the State of the military training of the cadet consists in its fitting him for the duties of the citizen. The lesson of devotion to duty for duty’s sake will cause him to lend his influence in the support of law and order, and to use his ballot for the adop tion of good legisla tion, and for the put ting of good men in office to enforce such legislation. This train ing also fits the young man to serve his state in the militia when the State forces are needed to protect public and private property, or to put down lawless ness in the form of riots, strikes, and similar disorders. Under existing law, the State forces are in future to be closely associated with the regular army as a part of the first line of defence in time of war. General W. T. Sherman, founder of the institution which is now the Louisiana State University, wrote: “I cannot help pleading to my country men, at every opportunity, to cherish all that is manly and noble in the military profession, because peace is enervating,

79 and no man is wise enough to foretell when soldiers may be in demand again.” Our people ignore the lessons of history, and lull themselves into a false sense of security from attack on the part of any nation. We are not an aggressive nation, but the same cannot be said of all other nations. We have, and we wish, no quarrel with any one, and we believe in the settlement of international differences by arbitration; but even where treaties of arbitration exist, there is always a reservation from the scope of its provisions of matters affecting the honor and territorial integrity of the high contracting parties, and either nation may at any time decide that the matter in dispute does not come under the terms of the treaty. We can never be sure that we shall not be drawn into a war. Who, in 1897, sup posed that the next year would see us engaged in a foreign war, the results of which would establish our flag in the Orient, in a situation exposing us more than ever before to the danger of international complications? Who shall say when some ques tion, such as the attend ance of undesirable aliens at the white schools of one of our sovereign states, may not involve us in a con troversy which the op posite party may elect to consider a cause for war? Our Anglo-Saxon prejudices militate against the mainte nance of a standing army adequate to meet the possible aggres sion of other nations, and we have always made it a practice to take chances of trouble coming and then to begin to get ready for it after it has arrived. Thanks to the assistance of the French in the Revolutionary W ar, it took us only seven years to defeat the British troops numbering at no time more than 50,000 with the 395,000 we raised during that war, or eight to every one of our opponents! But in these days, when the Atlantic can be crossed in from five to ten days, and the Pacific in about seventeen days, by giant steamships carrying a brigade of troops each, with all the munitions of war thereto pertaining, we shall not have the time for preparation we had in Revolutionary days, and the disasters due to our totally unprepared state will be immeasurably greater than even such disgraces as Cowpens, the capture of Philadelphia, and the burning of Washington (in the war of 1812-15). The at tack upon the Russian fleet at Port Arthur came in the twink ling of an eye, without the formality of a declaration of war, and three armies were operating in Korea and Manchuria be fore the world had recovered from its surprise over the sudden ness of the first blow in the war. As our lack of military sagacity and preparedness seems 80 to be a chronic national malady, the training of young men in the rudiments of military science in the various institutions like L. S. U. throughout the country, assumes considerable impor tance as a means of providing a partially trained nucleus for our future volunteer forces, and this is why the War Depart ment and the officers of the army detailed on college duty take their work so seriously. Realizing as they do the appalling waste of lives and treasure through our past mistakes of send ing thousands of untrained young men under ignorant officers to die in camp and in battle through the inevitable errors and inefficiency of such officers, they endeavor patriotically to make the most of the opportunity given them in the training of these young college men to offset, as far as possible, the general ig norance of military matters prevailing in our country. Let us not take too much comfort to ourselves in the thought of the magnificent armies we had at the close of our Civil War, for it took from two to four years of the hardest kind of campaign ing to make them what they were, and no prospective foe is going to be so kind as to give us four years or four months in which to manufacture an army to meet its seasoned troops. Let us hope that the time may not come when the young men of L. S. U. will be needed to defend their country from foreign aggression, but let us also hope that when it does come they will find that the conscientious efforts of army officers to train them will give them an immense advantage over those who have never had such training.

L. S. U. Athletic Association

AVING long felt the need of a different sys tem in the management of our athletics in order to secure better cooperation and sup port from the student body, and knowing that such cooperation and support could not be secured while the management of our athletics was almost entirely in the hands of the Faculty, we decided this year to supply that want by forming an athletic association. The movement for an association was agitated last spring and received the support of a majority of the stu dents. When school opened in the fall, the matter came up with renewed insistence, and after due deliberation we pro ceeded to put the plan into operation. The result seems to be all that can be desired, although the organization was not com pleted until the football season was well under way, and there fore its efficiency cannot be exactly determined as yet. The constitution of the Association was drawn up by a student committee, after consulting the constitution of similar organizations of all the leading Southern colleges; it was then submitted to the subscribed members of the Association and ratified by them. The students are given ample representation in the man agement, the entire control of athletics being vested in a com mittee consisting of five Faculty members, three students, from the Senior and Junior classes, and an alumnus. Each athletic team is to have a student manager to be elected by the mem bers of the Association, and each team is to have a captain chosen by the “L” men on the team. Any student of the Uni versity may become a member of the Association by paying the prescribed fee, which this year was three dollars; he is then entitled to attend any athletic contests engaged in by the L. S. U. team without further charge. This makes the price of admission to students very low, insures a good attendance at every game, and also puts something into the athletic treas ury upon which to begin the season. In order for an association of this kind to succeed to the fullest extent, it is desirable for every student to become a member. The novelty of the plan and the scepticism which many students show towards anything that originates from the student body, have prevented many from paying the reasonable fee required and becoming members of the organization. This 98 year the membership is but little more than half the number of students enrolled in the University, but next year it is our aim and hope to have practically the whole student body in the Association; and how best to accomplish this purpose is the problem that confronts us now. We believe that the plan of the Association is an excellent one; that it will succeed in put ting our athletics on a firmer basis in a financial way; that it is increasing the college spirit in the University; and that it deserves the support of every student and friend of the insti tution.

102 The Football Season

ITH memories of the prowess and success of our mighty team of 1908 and our many vic tories of last year still fresh in our minds, we began the football season for 1910, fearlessly facing the strongest schedule we have ever had. Hopes were high for an other successful season, notwithstanding the fact that we had lost several of our best players. The loss of such men as Stov all brothers, Hillman, Seip, and Fenton was impossible to remedy; for, although we had much excellent new material, they necessarily lacked the experience and training of these old veterans. The opening game of the season gave us cause to retain our rosy view of the future. It was played on our own campus on October 15 th with Mississippi College. The visitors put up a plucky fight, but we had them outclassed at every point in the game; and the con test ended with a score in our favor of 40—0. We now had our first oppor tunity to try out our new material, and although the game was not a brilliant one, the size of the score tells how well pleased we were with their work. In the next game we received our first set-back, and coming so early in the season, it was a strong disappointment, especially to those who had hopes for a clear string of victories for the Tigers, ending in the Southern Championship for Louisiana. This game was played at Columbus, Mississippi, on October 21st with Mississippi A. and M. It was a hard fought battle and the Tigers refused to go down without a desperate strug gle; but being unable to break up the almost impregnable de fense of their opponents, they were at last compelled to accept defeat, the score being 3 to 0. W hat was considered by all as our most important game was played at Pelican Park in New Orleans, on October 29th,

103 when the Louisiana Tigers pitted their strength against that of the Southern Champions of 1909 from Sewanee. This con test had long been looked forward to as one that would decide Louisiana’s standing among the colleges of the South for 1910. Victory meant, in all probability, the Southern Championship, and victory for us did not seem at all impossible when we con sidered our record for the past two years. These dreams were sadly dispersed before the end of the game, but through no fault of the Tigers, who fought valiantly every minute of the contest against great odds; nor through lack of support of our rooters, who were present to the number of nearly half a thousand. The victory went to Sewanee by a score of 31 to 5, but they had to fight for every point they made, and their best efforts could not prevent the Tigers scoring a touchdown for the honor of Louisiana. After the Sewanee game, the next defeat was no great surprise, for we had then come to the realization that the substitution of so much green material for veteran stock in the composition of our team had taken us out of the championship class for this season. This game was played at Nashville with Vanderbilt on November 5th. As usual, the Tigers were game to the last and put up a good fight, but this time they failed to score, for in a crippled condition they were up against the real champions of the South. The game between Louisiana and Texas University was played at Austin on November 19th, and the victory went to the Texans by a score of 12 to 0. In this contest our boys made the best show ing that they had made so far. The points scored by Texas were all made during the first two quarters, and in the second half Louisiana came back at them so strong that they were unable to do more than hold with difficulty what they had already made. Last on the schedule came Arkansas. The game was played at Little Rock on Thanksgiving Day. The Razor- backs were especially strong this year, and Louisiana in her badly crippled condition, with several of her best players out, was unable to stem the tide of defeat that had set in against her. The score was 51 to 0. This season we have had to do what we have not been compelled to do before for several years,— accept an almost unbroken line of defeat,— but although most of the victories did go to our opponents, and although we did suffer one of the greatest disappointments that we have been called upon to endure in the line of athletics, who can say but that we did

104 win some victories, after all—a victory in showing how we could take defeat and stand by our team when beaten, a vic tory for the Tigers in showing how they could fight under ad verse circumstances and in the face of failure, and a victory for us all in acquiring a new and greater determination to go in and lick them all next year!

A Tale of W oe

Being an Incident from Ye Class in Physics I

O W it came to pass in the days of Sorley, son of Whatshisname, that great dissensions arose even in the University of the State of Louisiana. For the teacher which was set to rule over the young men unlearned in the laws of Physics was exceedingly young and shy, even unto fearing to lift his eyes from the desk which was before him. Now this thing was not good in the sight of the young men; so they did much evil that Samuel, their teacher, might see the error of his ways. And lo, at the third hour of each day, when the young men did assemble and meet together, they made a wondrous noise and lifted up their voices in laugh ter and merriment— yea, and swiped those things which Sam uel in his cruelty had collected and gathered together, that he might persecute them for the sake of knowledge. But it availed them nothing, because the teacher was angered with his pupils. And the maidens who were among the young men spake unto him saying: “Verily, thy pupils are deafened and cannot hear thee, but if thou speakest thy questions a little louder, then will we heed them and answer them and make even a passing grade each day.” And Samuel took counsel within himself, saying: “How is it that I may put off these co-eds?” And behold, he called up before him all the leaders among the young men and made them swear an oath that they would no more perform their usual rites and antics. But the leaders of the young men were exceedingly bold and hardened their hearts against the cunning and wickedness of the Scholar, so that they would not swear the oath. They replied: “Verily, does it not state in the Royal Book which is Blue that we shall not swear or use pro fanity at all?” And immediately Samuel, nicknamed “Sammy,” waxed more exceeding wroth, so that he arosa up in his full size and smote the desk before him and reviled the young leaders, yea, and delivered them up to the tour-beat for punishment. Now the young men reasoned among themselves and said: “Yea, verily, how can this thing be? Lo, these many days we have frolicked and bluffed that the fair maidens of the class might witness our bearing and say: ‘It is good— even so.’ 121 But behold, the leaders from among us are stuck for disrespect, and how shall we do this thing?” And on the second day thereafter they did much increase their noise, even until he who taught them was dumbfounded with the tumult. But lo, as they ranted, Samuel drew forth the red-bound record of their iniquities and did fell them with mighty zeros; neither did he spare the co-eds in his wrath. And when these things were finished, the class, in its anger, when next it met together, did debar and close the Scholar from the place of recitation. And when he had come forth from the cloak-room door, straightway they rose in their seats and gave a mighty shout. But in due season it came to pass that one who was greater in the realms of Physics did chance upon the bolted door, even in the absence of Samuel. Then great was his wrath. Yea, he did beat upon the door and smote it with his mighty fists, even until it well-nigh broke upon its hinges. Then were the young men and likewise the maidens sore vexed and troubled when they heard his sayings. And it came to pass that one from among them arose and drew back the lock, and he burst in upon them. And after his departure there was great terror in the Class of Physics; and thereafter they raised a mighty silence in the third hour of every second day.

PHYSICS I AND II

122 LOVE’S FOND LAMENT

(A Supremely Simple Sorrow of a Sadly Smitten Swain.)

There aint no nothin’ much no more; And nothin aint no use to me: In vain I pace the lonely shore, For I have saw the last of thee. I seen a ship upon the deep And signalled this here fond lament, “I haven't did a thing but weep Since thou hast went."

Alas, for I aint one of they W hat hasn't got no faith in love. And them fond words of yesterday, They was spoke true, by Heaven above. Is it all off twixt 1 and you ? Will you go wed some other gent ? The things I done I'd fain undo Since thou hast went. Ah love, I done what 1 have did Without no thought of no offense; Return, return, 1 sadly bid. Before my feelings gits intense! I have gave up all wealth and show; 1 have gave up all hope of fame; But oh, what joy 'twould be to know That thou hast came!

123 “Hero W anted”

You have read of the dragons that used to breathe flame, And of the brave heroes, who won a great name By tackling said dragons, and making them run, Or killing them wholesale, just for the fun; You recall how St. Pat, for his countrymen’s sake, From the Emerald Island chased out every snake; You have read of the feats of giant-slaying Jack— (No, Idon’tmean Jack Johnson— Jeff “couldn’t come back”) ; You have read of old Atlas, who held up the earth; And Hercules, too, a hero of worth; You know about Caesar and his wondrous Tenth Legion; You have read about Peary, in the North Polar Region. You know how Napoleon crossed over the Alps; You know how our forefathers fought for their scalps; You have read of great heroes by the dozen— the score, And if you live long you’ll perhaps hear of more. But the “man wanted” now must be greater than these Not a quiver of eyelash, not a tremor of knees, Must our Hero be guilty of— for now that you ask, Bend low and I whisper it— This is his task: Whenever in Chapel a speaker appears With a lengthy discourse for our unwilling ears, When mess-call has sounded, and still he talks on, The battalion all hungry, their patience all gone— Let this hero approach to the windy one’s side, Lay hands on the “Bull,” and tie him outside.

144 PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL Foolish !

I Wonder if a man could say W hy Women in the land to-day A re found, W ho Ever take up law, when they Do A lw ays like so much to lay It down.

Colonel Prescott (lecturing to the Political Science Class) : “Gentlemen, the Federal Government is all-powerful. It can take Mr. Duval, as young and tender as he is, and make him fight upon a bloody battlefield. It can make the women, as timid and beautiful as they are, face the Japs in Mexico. But if I were given my choice I would rather go to war any day than be in a house full of babies.” Corporal Howe: “Colonel, perhaps you have never been on a battlefield.” Colonel Prescott: “No, I have never had any experience with any soldiers, except paper soldiers like you.”

Professor W. A. Read: “Mr. Frank, read your composi tion on the ‘Life of Macaulay.’ ” Mr. Frank: “Dr. Read, I didn’t write it.” Dr. Read: “Well, you write one on the ‘Girl from Rec tor’s’ next time.”

Colonel Nick.: “Now, boys, the first thing you do— boys, I’m surprised to see chickens that size walking around unmo lested.” Sergeant Cole: “Colonel, those chickens are educated. When recall from class blows, they all go to roost.”

Colonel Prescott: “Gentlemen, this is the cream of studies.” St. Amant: “Colonel, that cream is too rich for me.” Colonel Prescott: “Oh, well! it isn’t intended for flies.”

151 “S a c r e d t o t h e M e m o r y o f M e g g ie —

G o n e b u t n o t F o rgot”

Once a monument of power and pride, It stood and hurled its summons far and wide, And none were there so brave who in their insolence defied The Megaphone.

But at last it broke the bounds which all below should keep, And the thunder of its voice awoke the Immortals from their sleep. Olympian Jove in awful wrath consigned to the deep The body of Megaphone.

So now its voice is stilled forever, or at least that’s what we pray; And its form’s beneath some land or water scape, tho’ just where we cannot say; Here cadets are offering thanks for deliverance from the sway Of the Megaphone.

D o n ’t read this, it means “ABSOLUTELY NOTHING”

Where the ookus wooes the wunkus And the bingle bangle boos, Where the blankus blinks his blunkus And the Google oogle goos, There my soul wangs angle gungle And my heart beats bunkus bloos, Mid the woodle boodle doodle by the bink.

168 Famous Historical Events

H E R E have been many important events dur ing the past year, but several were of special note and epoch-making in character. One of these paramount events was the Mysteri ous Sheet Disappearance. The date of this extraordinary occurrence was December 15th. The night was cold and chilly, and the Freshies, after eating supper, had repaired to their rooms to enjoy the cheerful glow of a good fire. But presto! the discovery was soon made that their sheets were gone! A posse was formed and a vig orous search instituted. This search, although one of the most searchful searches of which we have ever known, proved of no avail, and the Freshies, the innocent dears, were compelled to sleep on their hard, cold, to say nothing of unsanitary, mat tresses. Wednesday morning at breakfast the sheets were found joyously waving in the breeze, strings of them attached to the flagpole stretched to the several pentagon buildings, giving a sort of May-pole ef fect, which made a happy and a 1 1 o- gether artistic ap pearance. (At this juncture it is said that Captain Sorley smiled for the first time since he entered West Point, and our jovial friend, “Old Serg,” said, “I’ll be d— - if that ain’t all right!” ) After breakfast the sheets were recovered by their respec tive owners, and it is an established fact that they now attach them to their beds with Royal Glue. And then there was the downfall of the Megaphone. The life of the unfortunate Megaphone was never a happy one. Even last year, in the days of its childhood, its existence was beset with many perilous, hazardous, and hair-breadth adven tures. The same misfortune pursued it this year and culminated in its final destruction. One night while valiantly doing its duty in a soldierly and military manner it was kidnapped. It is rumored that the cruel abductors finally drowned it in the calm waters of the Mississippi. This point was never fully 170 The Revised Version of Casey Jones (A Twentieth Century Epic)

Come tuneful Muse, assist me to relate The life of Jones, and his untoward fate: A rounder he, for thus the story ran, An engineer, and a heroic man. At half-past four the call boy’s raucous shout Broke through his dreams and bade him hustle out, But ere he left the portals of his house, He gave a kiss to his devoted spouse, And then he mounted quick his iron steed And toward the Promised Land he soon did speed.

“Fire up!” he cried, his eye upon the rail. “Fire up! we’re two hours late with ’Frisco’s mail!” But when he pulled up Reno Hill at last, He whistled shrill and roared and rattled past, And then the switchman said, in envious tones: “That sounds just like that rounder, Casey Jones.”

Just two more miles and ’Frisco is in sight, But the fireman yelled, in tones of wildest fright: “Look out, Casey! Jump! Jump for your life! Just ship what’s left of me back to my wife!” But Casey sprang upon the running board, And “Watch your Uncle!” he to the fireman roared; Then leaped astride the engine with a bound. Drove home his spurs! The engine left the ground,

And (this is a truthful tale) she leaped so high The other train beneath went roaring by Without a scratch! Then Casey’s engine dropped Square on the rails, and never even stopped, But rolled on into ’Frisco with the mail On scheduled time.— Thus ends my wondrous tale.

190 GRAHAM LITERARY SOCIETY Debating at L. S. U.

H E past session has been exceptionally suc cessful in the field of debating and public speaking at L. S. U. This phase of college activity has always been represented by vari ous literary societies and other different or ganizations, but during the past year interest has been aroused to a greater extent than ever before. As a result, we now have three literary societies— the Garig, Hill, and Graham, and in addition, two new features, the Oratorical Association and membership in the Pentagonal Debating League. The Oratorical Association is a voluntary organization, composed of students who are especially interested in the work of oratory and debating. The purpose is to arouse and foster interest along these lines, and to furnish material for intercol legiate debates. The intersociety debaters, who take part in a debate between the literary societies during Commencement of each year, and for which a medal is awarded, will also be mem bers of this Association. The Association does not conflict with the literary societies, but works in conjunction with them, and any student is eligible for membership. It has accom plished much good; and through its endeavors the Faculty will in the future award the Varsity “L” for excellence in debating. The other new feature is the membership in the Pentagonal Debating League. This is an organization composed of the state universities of the five states— Louisiana, Mississippi, Ten nessee, Arkansas, and Texas. Its purpose is to promote inter collegiate debating. According to the rules of the League, each university has two teams and annually debates two other colleges upon the same night and upon the same subject. This year Louisiana will debate Mississippi at Baton Rouge and Arkansas at Lafayette, the home team maintaining the affirm ative and the visiting team the negative side of the argument. In order to select the debaters for these teams, two prelim- 192 inary debates are held. From the first preliminary, twelve men are chosen. These men go in training for the debate proper. In the second preliminary, the final debaters are chosen to rep resent the University. A regular college credit is given students who enter this work. Both of these new features are due chiefly to the efforts of Dr. A . G. Reed, whose work in argumentation and debating has contributed more than any other one factor to the stimula tion of interest in this valuable work.

THE METRIC SYSTEM There’s metre dactylic, spondaic, A metre for laugh and for moan; But the only metre not prosaic Is m eet her by moonlight alone.

THE METRIC SYSTEM Last night about eight, I killed my roommate W ith a slab of barracks flooring; O h ! how I did hate Him to meet such a fate, But I just had to break him from snoring. 199 Limericks

There was a young lady named Fitch, Who heard a loud snoring, at which She took off her hat, And found that her rat Had fallen asleep at the switch.

A polished young fellow named Small W ent on a young lady to call. Her father drew nigh As he kissed her good-bye, And polished this fellow named Small.

There was a lady named Banker, W ho slept while the ship lay at anchor, But she awoke in dismay When she heard the mate say, “Hoist up the top sheet and spanker.”
