Yamacraw

OWNED AND PUBLISHED BY
THE STUDENT BODY OF
OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY

In Appreciation

For their freely given and long faithful service at Ogle-
thorpe University

We Dedicate

The 1937 Yamacraw to Dr. Herman J. Gaertner and
Dr. George Frederick Nicolassen, the two oldest professors
in the University. Much of the progress made by Oglethorpe
has been accomplished through their efforts, and by this
dedication we hope to express the sincerest appreciation for
that period of their lives which they have given to us, the
student body.

FN THE PREPARATION of an annual there is always
involved a long process of careful and tiresome work,
taking much time and requiring the best efforts of
the staff. We hope that as you read the follow-
ing pages and look at the pictures of friends
and familiar campus s^fies you will recall
many happy memories of your college years.
If the fruits of our work give this result,
we shall have the satisfaction of feeling
that we have accomphshed our pur-
pose.

HE THEME OF our annual is

college life and all that those

four years mean. Those days

pulse with new experiences,

extra-curricular and ath-

letic activities that make

for worth while expansion of your character, and varied
study courses that give real intellectual gain. All
through the book are drawings which well depict our
theme. As you turn the pages we hope that you
will pause and consider the advancement that has
been and is being made by higher educational
institutions toward offering better courses
and opening wider realms of knowledge.

kUR ANNUAL IS divided into seven
sections : Campus scenes, President's
message. Dean's message. Adminis-
tration, Classes, Activities, Greeks
and Sports. We hope that each
division of the book will be
of particular interest to
you as a record of your
days in college.

President's Message

N ONE OF his inimitable odes, Horace describes the Ship of State:
"Threatened by new billows which would bear her seaward again, with
broken mast and shattered oars, driven before a great storm, her sails
torn and her gods forsaken. 'Though thou dost boast of thy stock and
useless name', he writes, 'yet the tired sailor puts no faith in gaudy
sterns. Beware lest thou become the sport of the gale.' "

The world into which your Alma Mater has sent you is disturbed by
conflicting currents and boisterous winds. A great storm is blowing.
Not since the days of Napoleon has the earth known so much of sorrow,
and crime, and bitter warfare of words and deeds.

It is for such an hour that universities are built and their graduates
sent forth. In an age which has largely forsaken the ancient verities,
put your sword at the service of the good, the true and the beautiful.
If, at times, it is difficult to distinguish them, remember:

"A search is the thing he hath taught you.
For height and for depth and for wideness."

You will find no better motto by which to guide your destiny than
that of your own institution:

"Good minds, good morals and good manners."

THORNWELL JACOBS.

Dean^s Message

WOULD LIKE to bid farewell to the class of '37 with the words of
Benjamin Disraeli: "To be conscious that you are ignorant is a great
step to knowledge." Always keep Disraeli's words in mind throughout
life: Your education will not cease here, it will continue to grow. Be
ever mindful to direct it in the proper channels, channels that will be
productive to you and society as well. In entering upon your journey
through life be ever mindful of ideals that your Alma Mater has taught
you: GOOD MINDS, GOOD MORALS, AND GOOD MANNERS.

Select the type of work that you like best and put your best into your
occupation. Thomas Jefferson once said, "that nothing is troublesome
that we do willingly."

I would that each of you be ever mindful of your determination to suc-
ceed. I know that you will have many failures, heartaches, and regrets,
but you must learn to profit by your mistakes. Build again and again
upon each successive failure. Profit by the mistakes, not only of your-
self, but by the mistakes of others that you may observe. Never give
up: Couple your knowledge with a never-failing will and strong rugged
determination. Have FAITH, FAITH, FAITH.

With best wishes to all,

JOHN W. PATRICK,

Inter-Fraternity Council

Shortly after the opening of the new school year 1935 the active
members of the four fraternities on the campus those interested in
the development of close relationship gathered and formulated plans for
Oglethorpe's revised inter-fraternity council.

The purpose of the council, as stated in the constitution, leads to
the creation of harmony and co-opei'ation among the fraternities on the
University's campus, and to regulate rushing on the campus.

Pan Hellenic Council

Sororities did not come to the campus of the University until 1920,
only a few years after co-education became a part of the program of the
University. Fc was in 1920 that a group of girls banned themselves to-
gether under the name of ZETA TAU Sorority, which in 1930 became the
Alpha Chapter of KAPPA DELTA, leading the way to the founding of
two successful organizations up to the present time.

Two years after the founding of Zeta Tau, another female organiza-
tion, SIGMA ALPHA Sorority, was established. Another two years after
its organization it became the Sigma Gamma Chapter of the National
Sorority, CHI OMEGA. The Chapter was established in 1924.

The third and last sorority to come to the campus was PHI KAPPA
ETA, a local which was organized in 1927. In 1930 it became the Chi
Chapter of BETA ALPHA, a National Sorority.

One of the most harmonious movements of the three sororities took
place when a PAN HELLENIC COUNCIL was organized for the pro-
motion of close relationship. The council has been very active this year.

Football

Upon review of the 1936 season it may be well said that Oglethorpe
enjoyed a very successful year, although records show five defeats and
only four victories. Few coaches would have performed the miracle of
producing such a formidable eleven from the available material. Fate
so had it that the fighting Petrels won every home game, so the Atlanta
supporters were well pleased with the showing of their small, but mighty
grid machine.

Coach Patrick assumed the role of a magician during the past foot-
ball campaign and pulled four rabbits out of a seemingly empty hat.
The Petrels stormed Newberry, Alabama State, Emory and Henry, and
Erskine.

The season started with a decided lack of material, and when the
injury jinx began to haunt Hermance Stadium the clouds of pessimism
darkened the outlook considerably. The football wise eyes of our ma-
gician focussed on a scant handful of iron men, who were used almost
without substitution throughout the year. It did not require a keen ob-
server to notice that the lack of reserve strength was fatal to Oglethorpe
gridiron aspiration. The Patrickmen led Chattanooga and Mercer in the
early stanzas of their contest, but the bigger and heavier adversaries,
with their superior reenforcements, wore down the fighting black and
gold eventually winning the games. The Stormy Petrels, true to their
namesake, /?eH; perpetuaUij against advance wiuds. facing reputable op-
ponents, and constantly displaying heroic courage despite great handicaps.

The outlook for next season can hardly squeeze grunts of sheer joy
from a hopeful coach as eight regulars are lost through graduation, and
the light freshman squad will contribute but about three to next fall's
varsity. Most teams run in cycles, and the next edition of Petrels is due
to rank with the greatest teams of the region.

The seniors who have finished their careers on the gridiron are:
Puryear, Clyburn, Neal, Horton, Rickard, Carson, Reynolds and Sullivan.

Intramurals

Above is a picture of three of the four girls' intramural basket ball
teams. Reading from left to right: the Beta Phi Alphas, the Ramblers,
and the Kappa Deltas.

The purpose of the intramural athletics at Oglethorpe University is
for the boys and girls who are not physically built for varsity athletics.
These intramurals are offered so that the non-athletic students may re-
ceive the proper exercise that is needed. There are many sports offered
such as follows : for the boys are volleyball, free throw, basketball, indoor-
baseball, out-door baseball, tennis, track, and swimming. For the girls
are volleyball, hit pin, free throw, basketball, ping pong, tennis, horse
shoes, track, and swimming.
