"Life without industry is guilt,
Industry tvithout beauty is brutality."

William Morris.

Success without the aid of a college education
comes to many; few with or without this training
have the power to see the beauty that is in life. We
have the chance for both. To most a rock is a hard
mass that one stubs his toe on; the romance of the
rock comes with the knowledge of its millions
of units and their activity in the rock's struggle
against chemical decomposition.

We have time only to swear and pass on when
we do stub our toe we must leave the rock to the
specialists in beauty, the poets, and take from them
our beauty in spare moments.

Let us hope then for success, with beauty. If
the letters published in Book II prove a help in
reaching this goal, the staff will feel the 1925
Yamacraw a success, though Joe Smith's picture
be published above Joseph Smith's name, and
xeropthalmia be spelled with a z.

'Who Is This That Cometh to Disturb My Restr

(At The Opening Of The Vauh, October 10th, 1923, 4:30 P. M.

Oglethorpe, awake, it is ive!

From Georgia, thy Georgia, dost recall?

Castell the Anne old Charleston

then the bluff
Of densely wooded Yamacraiv
Savannah, drawn by thine own hand
Old Ebenezer Frederica Spanish

guns
And that red day at Bloody Marsh?
Awake, we come for Thee!
Numbered no longer by an hundred and

a score.
But million-voiced, ive call!
Come, see the travail of thy souls
Glynn's marshes, to sweet music their
Lanier

Hath taught, wave rhythmed welcome
Tomochichi beckons, though his Creeks
Have followed fair loskeha to the West.
Cities by hundreds hum their grateful

notes
Within the land thou gavest them,
Wherefrom great commonwealths have

sprung :
Rich Birmingham is thine; Augusta

fair;
Electric, thine, Columbus, where the

Chattahoochee roars.
While at thy Georgia's farthest Western

bounds.
By the mighty Mississippi, Vicksburg

Amf, lo, thy capital upon her watchful
ridge.

Atlanta, toils and sings and dreams of

thee!
Founder Father, Oglethorpe, awake!
Thou art no longer precious dust
Nor group of sacred bones.
But living once again thou hast become
Monarch of millions! Dominant, again,

thy tvill prevails.
Hear this thy praise that rings through-
out the land;
Thine is this adulation, this vast love;
Thine this memorial University;
Wherein thou canst unhand thy mighty

soul
And teach us, as of yore, thy fairest

dreams :
Of friendship, militant for sad humanity
Of conduct mailed in wise sobriety;
Of human liberty, uncowed by slaves;
Of Anglo-Saxon oneness; Thou first
American and Englishman in one.
Thou honored Chief of England's

swords.
Who would not fight against thy flesh

and blood.
Didst see, afar that Vaster Essex,
That sisterhood of nations, Saxon womb-

ed.
To whose warm heart and steady will
A world hegemony would come?
Great Oglethorpe, awake from visioned

sleep!
All thou hast dreamed is true!
At last, thy morning dawn.
And thou dost rise, a King!

Health, Character, Personality, Knowledge, In-
dustry, these are the essential qualities for
success.

The fundamental one is Health. You may pos-
sess all the gifts and graces known to man, but
if they must manifest through a deficient body,
the handicap is hard to overcome. Most of us
start with a modicum of health. How, then, to

keep and better it? Pood, sleep, exercise: these three

and the key words for all of them are Moderation and Regu-
larity,

The next basic quality is Character and to build Charac-
ter a man must exact from himself that unflinching Honesty
which makes him scrupulous not alone in his dealings with
others, but above all with himself. You may at times be
able to "put something over'' on other people, but never be
such a fool as to fool yourself.

Personality is assuredly an attribute of success. Some
claim it is God-given and beyond man's utmost striving, but
I believe one may cultivate it greatly. Ease of manner, gra-
ciousness, consideration for others, friendliness, democ-
racy; care in speech, language, presence, carriage all
these qualities go to make up personality and all will grow
with tending.

Twenty-Two

But I presume Ability is the outstanding quality essen-
tial to gaining a high place in the competition of life.
And Ability is Knowledge with understanding resting upon the
basic qualities of Health, Character, Personality.

What is the Understanding which gives us Knowledge? It is
to know that everything one can manage to learn is closely
related to everything one may ever want to do; this is the
beginning of Wisdom. Do not be discouraged if as Seniors,
you are barely catching a glimpse of this truth. The oppor-
tunity for genuine education is boundless for those who keep
their eyes open, observe what goes on about them and exer-
cise the process of original thinking.

Now, does Ability or Knowledge plus Health, Personality,
and Character always succeed? By no means. There is a fi-
nal sine qua non: Industry backed by determination. Every
soul shaped for success must develop the indomitable Will to
Win and how.

First eliminate the Laziness that is in you. Be unwil-
ling to excuse yourself from work. Forget the clock drive

yourself to Industry until it becomes your habit.

This, then is the Chart of success: Health, Character,
Personality, Knowledge, Industry; all yours for the demand-
ing. But, remember, always, the greatest of these is Health.

A man should standardize himself early in
life with what he considers the essential vir-
tues of a man, and he should practice them
until they become habits of conduct. If he
chooses honor, energy and courage, all the
others will be added unto him.

In my own experience I have learned never
to take a dare from life, but to face what-
ever comes. It is better to be defeated in the effort to
achieve than to retreat without making it.

To speak the truth is a sublime privilege which fools and
cravens never enjoy.

It is ignoble and unprofitable to practice vengeance,
but it is despisable to court one's enemies and produces the
perfectly correct impression that one is treacherous or
knows himself to be inferior and incapable of the decent in-
difference which buries enemies.

The man who believes in God, and so acts, dignifies him-
self. Such faith is a form of spiritual culture and ele-
gance which the meanly bred who deny Him never have.

As the shadows of the years lengthen behind him this is
what every man knows: It is more exalting to have earned
his own self-respect than to have many worldly honors with-

young man, after graduating from col-
ime to me for advice I would say to

First, make up your mind that you are
ing to lead an honest, industrious life.

^^k ] ll^H Next, that the life you lead will be clean
i^^Hk. wHi in every respect; that as you go on down life's
^^H^^I^H pathway, you will attempt to do unto others,
MWM^^BI as near as may be, as you would like to be
done unto.
Next, that you will not attempt to climb a ladder by
starting at the top, but that you will be willing to begin
down" at the bottom and climb the ladder step by step.

Next, that you will practice in your living and in your
business life, economy, having in mind at all times that
**a dollar saved is as good as two earned.''

The next thing for the young man to do is to make up his
mind about what he thinks he would like to do in a business
or professional way through life, and then start at the bot-
tom at that thing and not undertake to do something that he
would not be interested in. When once he has decided upon
his course, he should go at whatever the task may be with a
firm desire and intention of succeeding at it and then be
prepared to stick to it until he has mastered the task.

Too many young men believe that all they have to do is
receive a college education in order to be a success. What
a great mistake this is I Men succeed through their own ef-
forts and not on account of having enjoyed an education.

The opportunities are as great, if not greater, than ever
before for the young man who is willing to start at the bot-
tom, work, and work intelligently and faithfully and not
want to begin where the older man, who has made a success,
leaves off. I believe that if any young chap is possessed
of the right determination, the future is as bright as it

ever was.

AUGUSTA, GA.

I feel deeply honored to be asked to write
something which would be of interest to the
young men graduating from Oglethorpe Univer-
sity. I also feel very incompetent to at-
tempt such a thing, but your inspiring state-
ment, "There are boys at Oglethorpe who have
JLtSf^ ^^ the will to do," has helped me considerably.
^BTia^m it seems to me that if I were going to

^^^ ^^"*^' deliver an address to the young men who are
about to graduate from Oglethorpe, and enter
upon their chosen field of endeavor, I could wish for no
finer text than this statement, "The will to do." It is a
theme that holds for me an irresistible appeal, for in my
philosophy of life AMBITION is the cornerstone of success.
A young man with an aggressive AMBITION is bound to succeed
regardless of all draw backs. Indeed, it is my belief that
AMBITION is a far greater asset than natural gifts. Many
men of great natural gifts fail to apply their talent be-
cause they haven't AMBITION, while others, far less capable,
but possessed with that wonderful "will to do" have scaled
the heights of success despite handicaps.

It is not going too far to say that knowledge of natural
ability often dulls ambition, while it is almost invariably
true, a like appreciation of one's handicaps whets ambition
to an edge which cuts through all obstacles. Of course, we
sometimes see an almost ideal combination of natural talent
and an unswerving ambition. Then you have a genius but if
one were forced to make a choice between the two natural
ability and AMBITION, you would see that the chance of suc-
cess would be to the man with ambition.

In every walk and phase of life handicaps actually de-
lop latent ability. There are so many illustrations that I
am only going to select one or two at random as they come to
my mind.

Take Lincoln think of his handicaps also obstacles
thrown in his way. Take Roosevelt, with his lack of health
in his formative period, and how he went about laying the
foundation, which was his physical self, to help him toward
his wonderful future success. Read any of your up to date
magazines that have inspirational stories of our Captains of
Industry and see how they had to fight to surmount the ob-
stacles. They all had the "will to do."

I just happen to remember a case in football if I mis-
take not the name of the boy in question was Daley. He had
the terrible physical handicap of being club-footed. He
wanted to play football and was turned down at one college
without even a trial he entered another and fought up into
the ranks of "the stars" in his game.

Take our great national pastime. Just think of the suc-
cess of men like Meadows (a pitcher who has gained quite a
bit of success in the National league) and Torporcer, an in-
fielder with St. Louis. These men have the physical handi-
cap of poor vision they even wear glasses on the playing
field. Think of the AMBITION that must have driven them on
to the point where they hold their own in one of the two
best baseball leagues in the whole conntry. Then there is
three-fingered Brown minus his index, and a par of his
pitching hand. Just think what a star he was.

Now when you reflect over these men doesn't it seem a
shame that a man with all of his faculties can't go out and
make to success in any field which he might select?

It should be remembered that AMBITION is more than a
longing, or mere day dreaming that burning desire must lead
to the necessary action and sacrifice by which one's powers
are developed. I speak of the vaulting AMBITION that over-
laps itself, and patient determination that overcomes all
obstacles, and makes of them stepping-stones to higher
achievement.

I wish an
fill to do."

For each prospective graduate of Oglethorpe,
AMBITION that will inspire him with that great "

THOMAS LEE AARON

A.B. IX EDUCATION

"7 wish to preach not the doctrine of igno-
ble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous
life."

Entered in 1923 from Atlanta Theological Seminary.
Thomas is a man who believes more in
living his religion than in spending time
in talking about it. It is a sad, but true
fact that most preachers don't get along
very well with college boys, when they have
to live with them; therefore, all the more
credit is due Aaron, whom everyone on
the campus likes. Thomas believes that ed-
ucation is one of the first steps toward
Christianity, and when he gets out and
starts preaching he expects to play a big
part in the service of humanity. When at
the Atlanta Theological Seminary he won
the medal for the highest average in all
studies for the year. He has rendered a
great service to the students by the exam-
ple he has set for them.

ALFRED NEWTON ADAMS

A.B. IX SCIENCE

East Point, Ga.

'Rome

not built in one day."

Few men with a wife and family have
the courage to change horses in the mid-
dle of the stream, but Alfred decided that
he wanted to be a doctor, so after hearing
Doctor Gaertner describe Oglethorpe he
made up his mind that this was the place
for him to do his pre-med work. When
someone was asked if he had any peculiari-
ties, they said, "Well, he is in the habit of
emphasizing all of his jokes by pounding
his hearers on the back." Possibly this
makes them quicker to see the point. If
Alfred wants something he believes in get-
ting it no matter how long it takes him,
whether it be a cat for biology or an A.B.
Degree.

Alfred has persistence, a pleasant ap-
proach, and more than his share of cour-
age. He will be a doctor some day, if the
medical books aren't destroyed if they
were he would probably wait until some
more were written and with the qualities
he has he will make good.

"To wait like a ghost that is speechless, till

Cross Country Team '24.

For several days after fall registration,
boys rooming on the third floor were afraid
to be alone, they said that there was a
ghost in their midst, a ghost that some-
times followed them to classes and always
to the dining room. One day Dr. Nick
called on A gee, and he spoke.

Possibly this quality of silence is just
a form of economy with John, because when
he was at the University of Wyoming he
was prominent in debating and in the Play-
ers Club of that school. His studies have
been his principal interest at Oglethorpe,
and he ranks near the top of his class.

sticks out all over him; he has shown this
quality by making his way through school,
by working at night in the Southern Rail-
road shops, and by his gruelling activity
on the cross country team. He has one of
the greatest gifts that man can have a
child-like simplicity, that makes everything

Haircuts by and of Bish brought him to
us from North Carolina, and almost kept
his picture out of The Yamacraw. When-
ever there is anything to be defended or at-
tacked, he is always more than willing to
lend his golden tongue. If there is a dis-
cussion in session he is there. His activity
in forensic work, which started at North
Carolina, was continued at Oglethorpe,
where he was one of the mainstays of the
debating team. There is only one person
on the campus who can convince Bish that
he is wrong, her name is Mary. Bish work-
ed his way through and graduated in three
years. He is a hard worker and if he is

Sam's idea of a perfect world is an island
an island littered with fair women. He
would like to be the only man there for
several years, long enough to work up a
harem of adoring young things. The dream
would then be complete if he could have a
few, a very few of his friends over, say
"I've got a good looking girl I want you
to meet;" then snap his fingers and have
blondes and brunettes, crawl to his feet.
But, in spite of Sam's love for women he
is always willing to do his part whether
it be handing someone a muffin, taking a
hand at bridge, or building a fence around
the athletic field. Sam's good nature al-
ways makes a place for him by the stove
in winter and in the shade in summer.

"It's an ill wind that blows no man good."

Hoho Cluh.

Windv believes in the above motto, and
sees to it that there is a sufficient supply
of wind to fan the fevered brows on the
campus, and let the neighborhood know that
J. B. is thereabouts. He is never a man
to be left without a leg to stand on; if
all else is taken, he still has his opinion.
No one ever dislikes happy-go-lucky J. B.
for all the heated arguments that they
have with him.

His favorite study is Marketing, but he
does not expect to go into business unless
necessity forces him to do so; his ambi-
tion is to study pharmacy for two years
after he leaves Oglethorpe. He hopes to
own an up-to-date drug store some day
p'raps Alumni might get their prescrip-
tions there.

MILLEDGE HENDRIX BROWER

A.B. IN COMMENCE

Atlanta, Ga.

"And my veil no mortal ever took up."

Entered from Georgia Tec'i in 11124.

Milledge is taking his degree in the school
of commerce, but if he ever decides to teach,
there is a wonderful place open to him as
assistant in the school of journalism. When
the cocky young reporters finish their
course, if they are sent to interview Assist-
ant Instructor Brower to get the story of
his life, they will come back in a few hours
with a blank expression and blank paper.
If Milledge failed to like teaching, he
would make a wonderful train caller; the
result would be the same, with a lot less
fuss.

Milled.ge has worked some during the
summer in his father's candy, business, and
expects to make things hum when he learns
the business, and has a chance to apply
some of the knowledge he has acquired at
Oglethorpe.

PEYTON SKIPWITH COLES

Atlanta, Ga.

"The reward of a thing well done is to
have done it."

With Peyton it is the old story of the
monuments; those who need them don't
deserve them, and those who deserve them
don't need them.

He entered Oglethorpe from the Univer-
sity School, and in spite of the handicap of
impaired faculties of speech and hearing,
graduated in three years and one summer
school. He is not a genius, just like the
rest of us, and he had to work like a dog
to get through with this added amount of
work. You might think Peyton would have
had a hard time being one of the boys, but
don't think so for a minute, if the baseball
team had to go to Buford his care was al-
ways forthcoming, and no one enjoyed the
trip and game more than he.

Gibson is one of the last of the old school
of real he-men who formerly inhabited the
campus; he is a co-ed hater possibly his
wide experience wth cats in the Biolo^-y lab
has caused this. It would be hard to say
that he has specialized in any study, as hi
has done more than the average student in
Chemistry, Biology, and English. He spe-
cialized in these first two sciences, but still
had some unused time and with the help of
A. H., wrote "Set For Midnight." which
was one of the three plays presented at
the Atlanta Woman's Club last spring.
Gibson doesn't say much and he doesn't
smile much, but in some way manages to
create a cheerful atmosphere about him.

waited until his Senior year; before this
time he was merely W. R. Durham, unless
there was some sad reason for his being
addressed as Mr. Durham. He worked as
assistant manager of the Players Club in
'24, and was elected manager for '25. This
seems to have been his first real interest
in life for he has already done about twice
as much work as the job called for. It is
a pleasure rare as a day in June to see

Henry, according to his o\^'ti statement is
a man \vithout a hobby, but we believe his
hobby is to let others alone and be let
alone. The only case where he breaks this
precept is with his roommate Bull; to him
he is a combination of father, confessor,
adviser, and at times, nurse. Henry has
the face of an angel and it seems almost a
sacrilege for him to even smoke. His tem-

all conditions. He has put a lot of work on
studies in the School of Commerce during
his last year and seems to have gotten a
lot out of them. He always has enough to
say to make things pleasant and swears by
Bull Durham.

Senior Class History

Life itself is, and always has been, a battle, and every battle must end in victory
or defeat. Down deep in the strata of the earth, as well as upon its surface, we find
the marks of the great conflicts that have always been waging. In measuring the ex-
tent of our victory, the class of '25 is proud of the many individual and collective
feats it has accomplished.

Back in the dark ages of our Freshman year when we were enshrouded in a veil
of ignorance, we managed to creep out and venture into the activities of our college.
We were represented in football by Crowe, Porter, and Quarles; in baseball by
Ferguson, Hope, Kemp, Porter, Martin and Partridge; in track by Crowe and Tucker;
in basketlsall by Tucker, and in the Players Club by Morrow. In the spring of '22
J. D. Baxter won the cross-country run which added another laurel to our class.

In the Sophomore year we returned to college with the determination to make
the class of '25 the best class in the history of Oglethorpe. How many joyous re-
miniscences, how many bright and glowing pictures of bygone days arose in their
shadowy review before us, as we traced our steps through our Freshman days. But
alas we were full-fledged Sophs!

In our Sophomore year we contributed two more men, Maurer and Hamrick, to
the football team. This team of '22 was coached by Russell Stein, and was the first
Petrel team to score on the Golden Tornado of Georgia Tech which happened when
Adrian Maurer ran 95 yards from the kick-off for a touchdown.

Ferguson, Hope, Partridge, Kemp, Porter, and Willis were the baseball men of
our Sophomore year; Porter represented us in boxing; Tucker and Orovitz in track;
and Conklin, Hope, Mason, Morrow, and Tucker in the Players Club. Morrow, Conk-
lin, and Mason played leads in the spring productions of the plays which were pre-
sented at the Atlanta Theatre.

In the pursuit of higher education we lost many valuable members in our Junior
year. Scruggs, O'Neal, Gordy, Martin, Jackson, L. Pfefferkorn, R. Pfefferkorn, Mc-
Mekin and Misses Gore, Kellam, Foster, and Broughton entered the class of '24 by
means of work done at summer school.

In our Junior year we were represented in football by Crowe, Hamrick, Porter,
Maurer and Quarles; in baseball by Ferguson, Hope, Maurer, Kemp, Partridge,
Porter, and Willis; in boxing by Porter; in track by Tucker and Orovitz. The former
won the pole vault and high jump at the state meet. To the Players Club we gave
six members of the class, two of whom. Morrow and Conklin, took leading parts.

We received into our class this year Bagwell, Coles, Cornwell, McCormack, Oro-
vitz, Willis, Agee, Brower, McWhorter, and Mrs. West.

Last and best of all-Senior year .... "Tempus fugit." Soon we must cross
the threshold and leave the best we got from college clays our friends.

Wendell Crowe, president of the Senior class, began to show his will and his
determination to defend a principle in his Sophomore year by the stand he took on
the ROW famous rat-court affair. Besides four years of football he was business
manager of the Player's Club and as much in touch with student activities as any
man on the campus.

We have taken our full part in college life this year as most of the leaders of
the different activities have come from our class. Ross Kemp was captain of the
baseball team; Dan Conklin, editor of the Petrel; John Ottley, editor of the Yama-
craw; Paul Wilkes, president of the student body; Mitchell Bishop, president of the
debating society, and Grace Mason, Mother of the co-eds.

On the football team were Crowe, Hamrick, Maurer, Quarles, and Tucker; in
the Players Club, Conklin, Crowe, Durham, Hope, Mason, Morrow, Ottley, Spears
and Tucker. "My Word," one of the spring plays presented at the Atlanta Theatre
was written by John Ottley.

Camp, Cornwell, Mason, McCormack, Ottley and Partridge are wearers of the
coat-of-arms sweater, the highest scholastic honor which our Alma Mater can award.
Camp, Conklin, Crowe, Hamrick, Mason, Maurer, McCormack, Ottley, Partridge,
Porter, and Wilkes are members of honorary fraternities.

To we Seniors it seems the beginning of a new era of bright skies, sunny days
and the lovely promise of a rich harvest in after-times.

June! Commencement! Farewell! but we'll always remember:

For four long years in union sweet.
We've often met, and kindly ever:
Tomorrow and again we'll meet

And part again, but part forever
Asunder torn, at random tossed.

Some hopes preserved and many lost.

for a hand aside to fling
The veil that hides futurity;

To shotv events that time will bring.
To show the men that we ivill be

The joys, the sorrows that we will have
How spend a life, where find a game.

However bright, however drear.

May be lifes coming changeful weather

The friends of youth will still be dear
And dear the hours ive spent together

Hope's wishes die, life's tendrils sever,
But memory's stores are here foerver.

So in life's course should we e'er meet.
With those we loved when we were young.

Whose features pictured kind and sweet.
In memory's temple we liave hung.

How would their face bring to view
The scenes, the joyS'that boyhood knew."

For The Class of 1925

In this supremest hour, we stand at last
Among that gallant company, for ivhom

Life opens doors into a wider room.

Before us passes statesman, dreamer, sage;

The future is a challenge, and the past
A glorious heritage.

We may not daily do a mighty deed,

But through the rich traditions we have brought,
Out of these years; may hold, to meet our need,

Daily, a mighty thought.

There have been dreams along this sunrise way.

Where youth has shared its raptures and its fears

Dreams we may shape anew each dawning day.
Yet hold the colors of these sheltered years,

That one more noble than the rest, may be
At last, a wonderful reality.

April and dawn are ours, and all the high
And living messages those masters gave.

Whose words were deathless, when their souls went by.
To speak to us forever from the grave.

Today we have the treasure of a past.

More rich than any yester years could be

In promise and in prophecy.

We have known great companions; books and men,

Whose fruitful inspiration shall outlast

This path of youth we may not tread again.

The datvn is ours, but shall come at last

The noon, the tranquil starlight, and grave age.

Nor shall all these be less than noble, with a past,
That is a glorious heritage.

Junior Class History

Since Confucius first gathered his disciples for the distribution of knowl-
edge, it has been the ethics of a class historian not only to stress, but to break
as many hyperboles as possible in the glorification of his fellows. He, it is
who goes out to do battle for the rest. Probably some unknown Yen was the
first to acclaim the greatness of other Yens, Chows, and Fus, so that posterity
might know beyond doubt that his was the "first" class. The advantage rested
with him, therefore, and later historians have labored under the handicap
ever since, for Yen's lies were not lies, which is a paradox. But so be it.

The class of eighty that spread over the campus in September, 1922,
was not the greatest Freshman class in history, but it was as great as any in
its determination to battle Sophomores. And its metamorphosis of three
years has been pleasing to say the least. For by giving to the football team
five men, including Parrish, the captain-elect for 1925, and to the baseball
team three, it has proven an equal to its predecessors. In addition, the busi-
ness manager and assistant editor of the Petrel were Juniors. The high point,
however, was the debating team of 1923, the team composed of Orovitz,
Bishop, and Pearlstine, all members of the class, which defeated Tech and
Emory. Two of the trio are back and it seems probable a third will be chosen
from the same class.

Next to the aforementioned team, the success in Dramatics will be re-
membered. Of the three Spring plays, two were written by class members,
"Seein God," by Gladys Hurtell, and "Set For Midnight," by Harden and
Cornwall, while the music for the third was done by Thelma Doyal. Five
members took major parts in the productions.

Notable also is the predominance of class members in the Petrel's
"Who's Who" contest. In a list of thirty "places" the Junior class is first
with eleven, a clear indication of popularity among the students.

As the span draws nearer its end, we see more clearly many of those
things for which Alma Mater stands. And if some of us have not gained as
yet the sought-for ends, the Junior Class as a body may sing with the ballad-
singer:

"/'// but lie down and bleed a while.
And then I'll rise and fight again."

James Larwood, Histor.

Sopkomore Class History

"Here's where we may turn and go
Down paths of memory
Back to the land ive used to know,
The land of used to be."

My! There's such a lot we want to remember about our first two years at Ogle-
thorpe. Can you think of anything finer than the fact that our Freshman Class, of
'26 was the largest to enter Oglethorpe and that 104 of the class returned as Sopho-
mores. Not only the greatness in number of the class of '27 is notable, but its strength
and ability represented in all college activities stands out.

We can't go any further without a word of tribute to our president, Ed Miles.
Not only the Sophomore Class, but the entire student body realizes his splendid ser-
vice to Oglethorpe. "Ed Miles has the outlook, both of the student and the man of
the Church." One vice-president has served both years, and in "Nutty" Campbell, we
have had one of the finest possible executives. In our Freshman year, Elizabeth Hope
was Secretary and Treasurer, and in the Sophomore year Oliver Gramling filled the
place. Both certainly proved their ability.

Now for athletics and the honors that the Sophomore Class can claim. In foot-
ball, letters were made by Hardin, Redfearn, Justus, Campbell, Cousins, Carroll and
Slaton. Representatives in baseball were: Terrell, Buchanan, Cousins, Barbee,
Campbell, Justus and Chestnutt. Four Sophomores made it possible for Oglethorpe
to have a boy's basketball team this past year. Redfearn, Campbell, Slaton and
Chestnutt, as captain, formed a team and played six games, three of which they won.
The Sophomore Co-Eds were also represented in basketball by lone Thompson, Alter-
nate Captain; Sarah Magill, Manager and Evelyn Mitchell, guard. Brannon and
Hardin were Sophomore members of the Golf Club. Burton, Captain; Boone and
Wright were representatives in track.

In both the Sigma Lambda and Alpha Kappa Literary Societies, the sophomores
were well represented. Two of that class made the boy's debating team, Ginn and
Yates. The Petrel staff also included four sophomores, Ed Miles, Sport Editor; W. A.
Shands, Exchange Editor; Sarah Magill, Society Editor and Thomas Moss, Circulation
Manager.

Barber, Semon, Gibson and Holloway played in the Oglethorpe orchestra, and
in the Glee Club were Justus, Hardin, Campbell, Brown, Austin, McNeil and Howell.
The Sophomore Class can claim sixteen members of the Players Club as well as two
authors of the Spring Plays, Josephine Eichberg and Oliver Gramling.

"As time who steals our years away
Shall steal our pleasures, too.
The memory of the past will stay
And half our joys reneiv."

Sarah Magill, Historian.

God Give Me Eyes

God give me seeing eyes

For Beauty, ivhere it lies!
Let me not miss it, though its form be new,

Nor fail to find it in a strange disguise;
Oh let me see and knoiv that it is true

God give me seeing eyes
For Beauty, where it lies!

But let Pretense not wear

The mask of Beauty fair.
Nor steal my homage from her shrine away!

Let me see clearly and the Truth declare
// / acclaim the false, my false pen stay!

Oh, let Pretense not ivear
The mask of Beauty fair!

And, God, do not withhold

My eyes from Beauty old!
Let me see the Light, eternal, true!

Let me that light still struggle to uphold.
Nor cast aside the old lamp for the new

Dear God, do not withhold
My eyes from Beauty old!

The soul of me for Beauty ever cries
God give me eyes to see it where it lies!

Freskman Class History

It must be admitted, that on September '24, when one hundred and
eighty-three of us congregated around the lobby of the Administration Build-
ing, we were a motley looking crowd. The only point of similarity was our
little gold and black caps which we were forced to buy at the earliest possible
date. However, it took us but a few minutes to redeem the ignominy of our
looks by our prowess as a class.

The Sophomores bothered us but little, as we outnumbered them. You
could usually find us mi.xed up in any excitement that was ever started
and we started some of it ourselves. Still we can say with pride that most
of us have survived exams, and various other pitfalls that the Profs, have
persisted in digging for us.

At our first meeting as an organized class, we elected Lewis Moseley,
President; H. I. Baby Spencer, Vice-President; Roy Hancock, Secretary and
Treasurer.

Shortly after, the Freshman girls were formally initiated. They gave
a Sunday afternoon tea at Nancy Stribling's home for the Sophomore girls
and the members of the Faculty.

The Woman's Board decided that we Freshmen should become better
acquainted; so after the football victory over Sewanee, we were honored by
an informal dance at the Capital City Club, with four members of our class.
Cathcart, Underwood, Martin and Christian, contributing their part in the
Oglethorpe Orchestra.

The Freshman Football team was a whiz, winning six out of eight games.
Those receiving Jerseys were: Moseley, Spencer, Grimes, Carter, Garlington,
Dekle, Wright, Wingo, Chastain, Guthrie, Watkins, Hutson, Brinson, King,
Gordy, Boswell, White, Goldsmith and Gilreath. Evelyn Hollingsworth,
Evelyn Grady and Mildred Hatcher represented the Freshmen on the Co-Ed
varsity basketball team.

By the eighth of November the class had begun to appreciate itself so
much, that it was decided to do something no other class had ever attempted
to give a dance. Giving it after the Mercer game, we invited the Mercer
football players, and upperclassmen. The experiment was a great success.

We have won our share of attention from everyone. We also have
obeyed the rules of the game and if the class continues as it has begun, there
are wonderful prospects for the class of 1928.

Football

Out of a nightmare of possibly the weirdest season in the history of the
pigskin sport, a session filled to overflow with upsets and surprises, Ogle-
thorpe's scrappy band of gridders emerged dope champions of the world by
comparative scores, and by actual combat, champions of the oldest Dixie or-
ganization, the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. True, Centre,
also a member of the S.I. A. A. had accounted for a wonderful scoreboard,
but the Colonels had met and defeated only one other member of the associa-
tion, while the Stormy Petrels had backed up their claim to leadership honors
by six decisive victories.

The Oglethorpe '24 collegiate football accomplishments reads as a page
from modernized Arabian Knights. There was her spectacular route of
Mercer, dope laden to the extent of 29 points following the Bears' triumph
over the highly tooted Florida 'Gators, the Petrels' inspired stand against the
ferocious Sewanee Tigers, later winners over Vanderbilt, who just the week
before had raised the Dixie flag above a conquered northern eleven. There
were other victories that paved the way for Oglethorpe's just claim of S.I.A.A.
leadership, otiier wins possibly just as important as those over Mercer and
Sewanee, but the impregnable defense that the Petrels placed in the way of
Bear and Tiger alike, the not-to-be-denied offense that cut to pieces desperate,
fighting rival players at the same time, sent an ever loyal student body wild
and wooly.

To place one's finger on one, two or more heads and say "There's where
the credit lies for Oglethorpe's most successful grid force" would be doing a
grave injustice to others connected and associated with Oglethorpe's '24 foot-
ball grid schedule. There was Coach Harry Robertson, succeeding his
brother "Big Jim" at a time when dark
iC ' clouds were hovering over the Petrel strong-

hold, there was Captain Adrian Maurer, ad-
mired for his ability on the gridiron and
diamond, l^ut loved by his fellow-students

Ninetrj-Two

because in that enviable make-up there was no trace

of snobbishness or the least sign of the swagger of the

great' athlete. Then too, there was a line, a backfield

and reserves that gave their all for the University and

also a freshman team, a band of youngsters to whom

no small part of the credit goes, for, afternoon after

afternoon, hour after hour, they toiled, whipping into

shape the varsity that was to carry so successfully the

laurels of the Stormy Petrels.

^ ^_ Last, far from least, was a loyal student body, a

MX following that had backed the gridders, win or lose,

in success and in failure.

When the initial call for candidates for the Oglethorpe eleven was an-
swered on September 1, eleven veterans failed to respond, graduation, busi-
ness and marriage taking a great toll of the experienced players, but ten main-
stays, many of them stars in '23 were in the list returning. Coaches Harry
and Jim Robertson, with the opening game only a few
weeks off, started to mould an eleven that was destined
to sink into the sea of despondency at the start, but later,
by truQ courage and dogged determination, to ascend to
the very top of Mt. Everest.

A relentless, terrific September sun bore down on
die forty odd candidates from which the championship
eleven was to be shaped, practices were held morning and corliss

afternoon, six days out of the week. Injuries were many, the entire squad
was bruised and battered by necessary long, hard scrimmages. Adrian
Maurer suffered an infected foot just four days before the opening game.
Clay Parrish was absent several days with a bad leg that would have kept the
average gridder on the side lines in "cits" for the remainder of the year,
otlier veterans were on the injured list, but the entire squad
rallied bravely for

The Tech Game Sept. 27, at Grant Field

A water-soaked, muddy field, one that brought back
memories of Flander's Fields to many ex-service men in the
large crowd that braved the wrath of the elements, greatly
handicapped the Petrels as they battled with the formidable
Jacket eleven. Counting upon their speed, their aerial at-
tack, to overcome the weight handicap of the Tech players,
the Petrels found themselves robbed by fate, disarmed by
an over-night whim of the elements. But the little clan did

not falter, and when the first quarter had become his-
tory, Oglethorpe and Tech were grappling evenly in a
scoreless deadlock.

A bad heave of the slippeiy pigskin, a 3-point boot
after the Oglethorpe defense had repulsed three savage
thrusts of Wycoff and Company, gave the Jackets a
none too comfortable 5-point lead as the final quarter
opened.

With the ball in their possession in the very
shadow of their own goal, the Oglethorpe eleven elected
to gamble, to go down in defeat by a large score or as

victors cross the final chalk marker at the Jacket goal line. Two iurward
were heaved, both were completed, but as Tech players tackled the
the slippery ball evaded their arms and Tech recovering, totaled
14 points, the final count of 19 to favoring the Jackets. Though the Petrels
lost, it is interesting to note that the Jackets totaled only
six first downs against the Petrel forwards during the
regular 60-minutes of play.

Fort Benning Oct. 4, at Columbus

History failed to repeat itself as the Petrels battled
with the Officers, a 20 to final going to the Benning
gridders, due to the efforts of two former All-American
players, and the valuable addition of one AU-Soutliern
veteran. The Stormy Petrels suffered their first defeat
in gridiron competition with the Officers, all former meet-
ings being chalked in the Ogletliorpe won column.

receivers.

The Citadel Oct. 11, at Charleston

Under the dismal cloud of defeat. Coach Robertson, without the aid of
his brother who had, according to former plans, returned East, sent the Pet-
rels through a hard week of practices, gave them
several new plays and watched them as they ac-
counted for their 10 to 7 victory over Citadel on
foreign soil. A forty-yard drop kick from the toe
of little "Nutty" Campbell being the margin of
victory.

WoFFORD Oct. 17, at Anderson

An offense that had failed to function, a line

Ninety-Four

that had not hit its true stride, found itself against
the Terriers, the Petrel players totaling one of their
largest scores of the season as they ran rough shod
over tlieir rivals, hitting the line and speeding around
the ends to a decisive 27 to victory. Captain Maurer
found himself in this meeting, Kilgore commenced a
drive that was to label him one of the greatest full
backs in the South, and Alton Redfearn, one of the
numerous reserves, also shared the limelight.

Loyola Oct. 25, at New Orleans

Outweighed sixteen pounds to the man, facing over a ton of human
bone and sinew, the Oglethorpe eleven divided honors
evenly in a 13-13 tie with the Loyola Wolves, the meeting
being one of the cleanest, most sportsmanlike battles ever
witnessed. This game in New Orleans marked the opening
of athletic relations between the two institutions, and never
has a Dixie delegation been more royally entertained. The
Wolves scored in the first and third quarters, due to the
flashy work of "Deuce" Demengeux, while the Petrel
counters all came in the second period as Maurer, Kilgore,
and Redfearn, by straight football devoid of all frills, car-
ried the oval down the field, Kilgore plunging across the
final marker for Oglethorpe's initial score. On a beauti- """' *' '"

ful 40-yard run, Redfearn side-stepped and stiff-armed his "^ ^^" ^'^^^

way through practically the entire Loyola defense for the final Petrel score.
Both teams totaled one of the two attempts for the extra point after touchdown.

Sewanee Nov. 1, at Ponce de Leon

An inspired band of Oglethorpe gridders, bloody and
exliausted, out-fought and out-scored Sewanee's powerful
Tiger eleven by a 7 to count, the Petrel win marking the
first of its kind in the history of athletic competition betwen
the two universities. Linton Cooper and Charles Corliss,
two star linesmen, who were held out of the Loyola fracus
by Coach Robertson, were returned to the fold and aided
materially in the greatest victory of Oglethorpe's gridiron
history.

Ninety-Five

The laurels of that battle go, not to a side-
stepping, twisting, back, but to two lines that
grappled through 60 minutes of play, neither
asking nor receiving ground. Sewanee with her
backfield of fast stepping stars, Oglethorpe with
her illustrious Adrian Maurer, were unable to
penetrate consistently each others defense, the
winning score coming as the result of a 20-yard
flip from Campbell to Carroll that placed the
pigskin on the 8-yard line. Kilgore delivering
the needed yardage a moment later through center

Howard Nov. 8, at Birmingham

Though badly bruised in their sensational win over Sewanee, who later
in the season triumphed over Vanderbilt, con-
querors in an intersectional tilt with Minnesota,
the Petrels won easily over Howard's gridders,
the larger end of a 32 to 7 score coming to Coach
Robertson's charges.

^^^ St. Louis Nov. 15, at St. Louis

PERKF.USO.X jj^ jj^g Petrel's first intersectional battle, St.

Louis bested the Oglethorpe gridders by an 18 to 6 score. With the Mercer
tilt coming the following week. Coach Robertson elected to save some of
his stars as the game with the Bears, outside of the usual keen rivalry, also
carried with it the championship of the S.LA.A.

Bob Kilgore again tallied the Oglethorpe score,
the Petrel's total coming in the first quarter, while St.
Louis' scores were divided equally in the remaining
three periods.

Mercer Nov. 22, at Ponce de Leon

A dope-laden Mercer eleven, confident in its
strength shown one week earlier by a decisive 10 to
victory over Florida, fell before the consistent, alert at-
tack of a rejuvenated Oglethorpe attack, the 25 to
final being one of the greatest dope upsets in the South-

Ninety-Six

land. Mercer, by her victory over the 'Gators, had
gained the dope championship of the nation, only to
lose this honor, together with the championship of the
S.I. A. A., to the Stormy Petrel force.

The Petrels showed their superiority in every de-
partment, even the Bear's celebrated aerial attack being
used to advantage by Oglethorpe linesmen and backs
alike.

Chattanooga Nov. 27, at Chattanooga

Oglethorpe closed her most successful venture on the
gridiron^ with a big Turkey-Day celebration at the expense
of the Chattanooga Moccasins, the ringing down of the
curtain exercises coming to the Petrel camp by a 20 to 2
score. Adrian Maurer was injured in the first five minutes
of play and was forced to retire. Without the aid of their
captain and star, the Petrels floundered around a bit. Bob
Kilgore rallying the oifense and leading the eleven to vic-
tory after the Moccasins had led at the end of the first
quarter 2 to 0.

The Petrel's complete grid score card shows a total
of six games won, three lost, and one tied. The Petrels quarles

scored 140 points to the total damage done by rival elevens amounting to
86. In S.I. A. A. competition alone the Petrels won all six of their meetings,

i totaling 121 points to a meager total of 16 for the com-
bined efforts of their opponents.
To close this inadequate history of Oglethorpe's
most successful season on the gridiron without some
meager words of praise for coach and player alike,
would be doing a great injustice to those who so success-
fully carried on Oglethorpe's fight for national recogni-
tion.
To Coach Harry Robertson, Petrel students and
fans owe a great debt of gratitude. The ability of Coach
V , Robertson was realized and appreciated from the start.

MARTIN The Petrel mentor was not a hard taskmaker, possessing

those qualities of leadership that have made him more than just a grid

director, Robertson has become literally a pal to every man in the Petrel

camp. Through his efforts an only fair calibre of material was turned into

honors has been universally

recognized.

There were the backs,
Maurer, Campbell, Kilgore,
Hamrick and Redfearn to
whom the word "quit" was
unknown. Nix and Carroll
were recognized as two of
the best end men in southern
football, Crowe and Cooper,

both veteran tackles, were responniblc lo a large degree for Oglethorpe's '24
successes, and proved able mates to Hardin and Corliss, regular guards.
Parrish, hefty center, together with Maurer and Kilgore, were picked by
many sporting writers on the official S.I.A.A. composite line-up taken from
all the team members of the association.

The resei-ves often played more than the regulars, Justus, Cousins, Slay-
ton, Perkerson, Young and Quarles giving their all and often playing on even
terms with the varsity. The Oglethorpe '24 football session is now history
but a more sensational, a more satisfactory season could hardly be recorded.

...

;i*K

Ninetij.Eight

Provided' ihe old sporting adage "the freshman team of today is the varsity of tomorrow"
holds good at the Petrel camp, then Oglethorpe is assured of having another formidable eleven
when the baby gridders make their squalls evident next September on Hermance Field. The
"rat" combination, under the direction of Coach Chestnutt, accounted for a very successful
grid program, totalling seven wins out of nine meetings with some of the leading prep and
college forces of the state.

The younger Petrels didived two meetings with the University for Boys' eleven, and drop-
ped to G.M.C. by a narrow 7 to count. With these two defeats marking the only reverses
on their final scoreboard, the "rats" trampled Monroe, G.M.A., Norman Park, Locust Grove,
and such leaders as Sheppard, Anderson, Spencer, Garlington, Guthrie, and Gilreath took
turn about adding yardage through yawning holes opened by Chastain, Moseley, and Gold-
smith.

Uncrowned Kings

The man who kicks the field goal

That wins the hard-fought game,
He kicks his way to glory.

The thousands cheer his name.
But what about the center

Who passes him the ball?
He makes or breaks the kicker, but

He isn't cheered at all.

The back who crashes through the line,

For ten or maybe more.
And makes the final touchdown

That proves the winning score.
He's hailed the college hero

Amidst a wild hurray
But what of guard or tackle

Who opened up the way?

Oh, football has its heroes.

Some of the gifted toe.
And others who can smash a line

And strike the winning blow.
But as in every game on earth.

Including that of life,
Its greatest heroes often pass

Unnoticed through the strife.

Dixie Champions

Oglethorpe grid forces may sweep the nation, her baseball nines may conquer
in every land, but the feat of the Petrels of '24 in winning 20 out of 22 games against
the leading diamond combinations of the country, and the Southern Championship,
will ever be cherished by those connected with the University. Additional honors will
come to those that bear the name of the Stormy Petrels on the athletic fields, other
championships will follow, and Oglethorpe become an even more feared foe, but the
joy of that initial Dixie victory, the happiness of player and student alike as Tech,
Georgia, Alabama, and other leaders fell before the skill of Coach Anderson's
charges will never be forgotten.

The Petrels had, in former years, shown their strength on the diamond, had
defeated the Tech Jackets, had tied the Georgia Bulldogs, and drubbed the Mercer
Bears, all leaders in the hot weather pastime. But to the team of '24, led by Captain
"Pug" Bryant, goes the laurels of the most successful endeavor of a Petrel force.
Only two defeats were chalked against the Oglethorpe ball tossers out of twenty-
two games, Dartmouth's Big Green dividing equally, a two game series with the ever
fighting Petrels, and the Georgia Bulldog's defeat of the Stormy Petrels, in the first
of a two-game series by the narrow margin of a 7 to 6 final, marking the only re-
verse handed the Oglethorpe nine by a southern team. Though the Georgia colle-
gians triumphed over the Petrels in their initial meeting, their historic chapel bell
failed to toll out a Bulldog victory the following night, this usually gay college town
being silent as the Petrels handed the Bulldogs an 8 to 1 drubbing, one of the most
decisive defeats handed the Red and Black representatives during their "24 season.

The Stormy Petrels opened their collegiate season with Dartmouth's formidable
force, a nine that, up to that time, had laid waste to the Southland, and though it
was not realized at the time, the Petrel's 7-6 win was a good omen, a victory that
gave the confidence that was to carry them to the Dixie championship. The opening
game with Dartmouth was probably the most sensational diamond get-to-gether ever
witnessed on Hermance Field, the Petrels breaking a knotted count in their section of
the eleventh inning when Clay Parrish, after being hit in the head by a pitched ball,
crossed the counting marker when Dave Barbee tripled to deep center.

Other victories followed in quick succession after the Big Green nine had
evened the count in the second meeting, Furman crumbled before an attack that
threatened to drive them back to their South Carolina haunts, Birmingham Southern
and South Carolina fared little better, and on a week's invasion five games were
won out of an equal number played, Wofford, Furman and Clemson dropping before
Coach Anderson's hitting and fielding stars.

The annual pilgrimage to the kennel of the Georgia Bulldog left the Oglethorpe
stronghold practically vacant, and though the Petrels divided honors with the Bull-
dogs, a satisfied student body returned to the campus ready for Alabama's powerful
nine.

came to Atlanta with a formidable force, one whose claim to the cham-
pionship of the South rang true. Against the Stormy Petrels the Crimson Tide re-
ceded in its hope for southern leadership, while the Petrels soared higher towards
the peak of the Dixie championship by two well-earned, hard-fought victories over
the visitors.

One Hundred and Four

In two games in Macon that caused brave men to tremble, the Petrels defeated
their ancient rivals, the Mercer Bears, and with further honors returned to Atlanta
ready for their pair of battles with Tech.

Refusing to be shaken from their perch at the peak of the Dixie championship,
the Stormy Petrels closed a brilliant season with two equally brilliant victories over
the Jackets. The Petrels out-fielded and out-hit the Jackets and accounted for, along
with the Dixie championship, leadership of the S. I. A. A., also Oglethorpe's first
city collegiate championship.

Fourteen players received the coveted "0" for their efforts on the diamond,
fourteen men starred during a season filled with thrills and excitement. Willis
pitched his mates to seven wins without a single loss being chalked against his record.
Humphrey lost only one meeting out of nine starts, poor fielding on the part of the
Petrel infield being responsible for this one demerit. Barbee and Morris each won
two games in the box without a single reverse, Ferguson also showing his worth by
adding another win in his sole attempt. Peace, after a great season in '23 failed
to find himself and dropped the other; battle.

The real calibre of the Petrel nine will be understood when it is noted that three
Oglethorpe stars are slated to show their wares in the "Big Tent." Herbert Bryant
is slated for the Pittsburgh Nationals, Thomas Porter for the St. Louis Americans and
Leonard Willis will also report to Pittsburgh. Big league scouts followed the Petrel
diamond athletes through many battles and there is a strong possibility that other
members of the championship '24 Oglethorpe nine will be stepping around in the
"Big Tent."

Golf

Oglethorpe has tasted of leadership in football and baseball competi-
tion and may also have the golf crown of Dixie in time.

The Golf Club, founded on November 28, aims at a widening of the
circle of athletic possibilities at the University. A school tournament has
already been approved, from which a team will be selected that will possibly
enter several of the intercollegiate meets scheduled for the spring and summer.

MEMORIES

former position by raising

midday meal (Sundays

Applesauce Academy, located in the very heart of a thriving city from which
the students can find recreation and culture, is surrounded by a vast expanse of
beautiful forests and lakes. Founded in the spring of 1925, the University is rich
in the mellow traditions and customs that go so far to temper the life of a college.

One Hundyed and Sixty-Fii

Our faculty speaks for itself (on all occasions), as our President so aptly put
it, "keepolotov eu opovouvta un opovelv dokelj" "ain't they the berries." Living
in perfect accord with each other and with their students, they make our college a
place of brotherhood and love.

As for our students ah, yes, how much a part of our very being they be not
too much can be said (safely I, as one of our prominent faculty members so aptly
put it, "Sultorum plena sunt omnia." "We get our freshmen from the very best
high schools of Georgia."

\J tense moment in one of our Lecture courses."
The buildings of Old Applesauce, which is often squeezed down to "Cider," as
a loving nickname, is built of fine Buckhead Soapstone of very superior quality,
and is well ventilated, in fact very well ventilated. We are very proud of our
buildings, and hope some day to get another one?

And there are our co-eds, who bring beauty and laughter to our campus ah,
yes, how they have taken their place in the very heart of our College, and become
the very fabric in the fundamental foundations of our University? As one of our
seniors so aptly put it, "/e vous aime, cherie, baisez-moi." "They are such an in-
spiration and incentive to us."

We could point, but it is impolite to point, and the Applesauce boys are
notorious for their politeness, with justifiable pride in our football and baseball
teams, in fact we might say that we have, for the price, the best teams in thisi sec-
tion (of the county). We almost won our baseball game last year; the score was
98-0 in their favor when the game was called for darkness; the coach said that
this wasn't bad, in view of the fact that we hadn't had our turn at bat.

Will You Ever Forget

The week-end that Dan Conklin acquired the nickname, "Mr. Hell."
The time that Bob Grimes brought the white mice to the co-ed room
and the girls had hysterics and almost something else.
Bill Morrow's smile, Wendell Crowe's "Lad."

"The following students, having accumulated five or more unexcused
absences are requested to meet the faculty Wednesday unless a plausible
excuse is rendered by noon of that day."

Dr Routh in his glory. Dr. Routh: (Reading paper with no name on
it ) "This paper lacks unity and coherence. It shows a weak vocabulary,
poor spelling and punctuation. The grammar is also bad and he uses many
vulgarisms." (holding up paper) "Whose paper is this? ' And then the
still, small voice.

The clock and its mad race for or against time.

The night that Carlos was locked in Lupton Hall In his own words:
"It happened some time ago that I went to the third floor of Lupton Hall
looking for a suitable place to do a special work. I did it, and when I
finished, I turned out the light. Absolute darkness was surrounding me as
I began to walk carefully toward the door. A chair was right in the way
and I stumbled against it. Then I stretched forth my hands m an for l-mj

to grasp something and avoid falling. I grasped the door and I did not ^V^P;

fall, but I locked the door.

I must tell now that the lock of that door is slightly freakish Some-
times, according to its humor, it does not work well. And that night it was
angry in the highest degree. I try to open it, using all methods, from per-
suasion to roughness, but I could not.

The night was rather cold. It was about ten thirty. I looked for a
comfortable place to sleep, but the only furniture that I found there were
desks, chairs and a blackboard. The prospect of spending the night was
not good enough to make me dance with joy. So I overcame my desire ot
keeping in secret my unfortunate adventure, and I shouted for somebody to
help me. Most of the boys were sleeping, so I was obliged to keep shout-
ing more time that it might be convenient for my throat. At last 1 was
heard and an expedition formed to proceed to my rescue. They were suc-
cessful and I could realize better than ever the comfortableness ot my bed.

The day that Mrs. Libby forgot to come to a class and the freshman
who naively said in an English paper, "This is something that rarely happens
so it was enjoyed by all."

About five minutes before chapel when students begin to file in and in-
terrupt the Economics class.

Minus and his history. The Biology class got their hooks on the tiny
pup and operated. Everyone thought that Minus would die, and it didn t
seem to make any particular difference; but he lived and got. food anywhere
he could find it. One night in the barracks Minus started howling, and
Baby Spencer got up to throw him out. There was a fire and Minus had

One Hundred and Sixty-Nine

served to warn the inmates. His place was made, Soon Plus, the black
and tan counterpart of Minus came to the campus, and because of the great
service that Minus had rendered, Plus was adopted as a playmate for the
scarred but loved Minus.

How Dr. Routh looked the morning after he put kerosene on the fire,
and it blazed up and singed his eyebrows and eyelashes.

Football practice in the hot dusty mornings and afternoons of September,
with the little "ring around the rosy" stunt for the backfield men.

The time that Bully Boy went to sleep on Dr. Jacobs shoulder com-
ing back from Anderson, S. C.

The Saturday that some boy borrowed a flock of geese and locked
them in Dr. Jacobs office and the Monday morning when the office was
opened.

The Bonfire on the night before the Mercer game of '24, and the mild
celebration on the Saturday afternoon and night afterwards.

Those walks up and down Peachtree road on spring nights when every-
thing from girls to evolution were discussed.

A boiler which was a target for rocks until there was so much racket
that Colonel West couldn't sleep and rolled it down on the athletic field,
and the next night the boys rolled it back up the hill, left it by Lupton Hall,
and again disturbed the Colonel's slumbers with the resonant sound of rock
on hollow steel.

The kind, efforts of members of the Chemistry class to stop psychology
by putting ammonia in the room.

The Christy Mathewson baseball games that arrived just on the eve of
examinations and almost broke up the usual last minute cramming.

In the spring of '24 when the orchestra, by special arrangement, played
a group of Hawaiian airs at a baseball game and the two teams thinking that
it was the Alma Mater stopped the game and stood at attention with their
caps off.

What Leila said the first time she saw Miller.

The last six days of work on the Yamacraw and that grand and glorious
feeling when the last sheet was slipped into the envelope and George in-
sured the package for $200.

Virginia calling a member of the faculty "sticky poppa."

The pride of the Freshman class of '28 at getting their flag up and the
effort that was necessary to get it down.

The night that Bull hit Father Teasley with a biscuit in the dining
room and what Father said to Bull, and what must have passed between
the two to make them the best of friends by 12 that night.

Moral Victories.

What the governor of North Carolina said to the Governor of South
Carolina while at Oglethorpe.

The letter that she must get, and that kind street car conductor that
offered to mail it for you when he finished his run in Atlanta.

It is a frequent occurrence for patients to come to us with the statement, you
have been recommended to me as the place to go with my eye troubles I
put myself in your care, do what you can for me. If it were not for the many
years of optical service rendered by us, such statements would not be made.
Ask any of our patients how they are pleased with our pains-taking service,
also ask any of our better oculists what they think of the Ballard optical
service.
