S. Green Literary Society is the oldest society on Piedmont's Campus. It was organized by the pioneers of the college in 1897. Each year over this long period of time it has been one of the outstanding societies on the campus. This year there were several new men added to the roll. These men with the men already on the roll have kept the Society "on the map." On March 7th the Society gave its thirty-fourth anniversary program. Miss Susie Ritchie, the Sponsor, was presented in a most unique manner. This feature was one of the outstanding parts of the program. The second part of the program was full of laughs and smiles as a minstrel was given. The "Mississippi Minstrel" was made up of six end-men and a chorus of twenty. The ideals of the Society are embodied in the one word "Excelsior." These ideals are to be of service to the Society, to Piedmont, and to the world. May these ideals remain dominant throughout the next year and the years to come. 19 31 Paijc Sixty-eight o 4? .V II I A. 19 31 Page Sixty-nine I It YOK A. II I A.

Thus is formed any society, and thus, together with the realization that literature, music, and drama are indispensable, was formed, in 1922, the Theta Zeta Phi Society. Teeming with spirit and noble in purpose, Theta Zeta Phi stamps her lasting influence on the lives of her members. 19 . u m ^ ^ * $ 3i Payc Seventy o I A. 31 Page Seventy-one YO W A. II I A.

Cribbs Vice-President McHoyt Bowman Secretary Fred Hallford Treasurer Paul Hallford Critic When the Protropians assembled Friday, September 12, 1930, in their Society Hall, they missed several of the old "Prot" leaders many of the outstanding mem- bers having graduated in June. This handicapped the leadership of the Society. Such being the case, the old and new members realized that to make a successful year of it, a difficult task faced them. They were, however, undaunted and plunged into the work with the characteristic Protropian zeal. At the beginning of the year the Society purchased a very late model Westinghouse Combination Radio Set, complete with Home Recording Outfit. This added greatly to the homelike atmosphere of the Society. The 34th anniversary program was rendered December 15, 1930. This event always marks a high spot in the history of the Society. The men exhibited consider- able talent as amateur performers in presenting a three act comedy entitled, "All Night Long." Just before the play began the President gave the audience a grand surprise by revealing the secret that Miss Maurine Owens had been chosen as Sponsor for the Society and little Betty Stofiregen as Mascot, each contributing to the pro- gram. Pro-tro-pian Society. You are made by your men. In truth and sincerity, Your name we will defend. Standing for the right, 'Neath your gold and blue Guided by your light May we to thee be true.

Vice-President Kathryn McWhorter Secretary Gladys Payne Treasurer Second Term Gladys Payne President Will Higdon Vice-President Willie Yates Secretary Rosie Gill Treasurer In the fall of 1980 the Gamma Chi Literary Society began its ninth year very suc- cessfully with much enthusiasm and zeal. On the day of our arrival at Piedmont in September each old member did her utmost to make the new girls feel at home on Piedmont's campus. After a week's stay at Piedmont the old members gave a recep- tion in honor of the new girls at the home of our Sponsor, Mrs. Ensminger. Two weeks later thirty-five new girls underwent the initiation and with the Pledge of Gamma Chi became active members of the Society. With a sponsor full of enthusiasm, a talented little mascot, and with a group of "willing-to-do" girls, Gamma Chi sped on its way with many interesting programs throughout the year. Mrs. Ensminger composed a new song for us and with the voices of the new girls presented it to the Society; and with the "Nightingale" the entire Society sings: "0 Gamma Chi. fair Gamma Chi, We sing much sweeter when we try To render thy beauties their honor due. Here are friendships formed That last a lifetime And we owe it all to you Our wonderful, beautiful Gamma Chi. "These memories come and go Soft and low they whisper of smile and tear, Of beauty's dancing feet Glancing by, Wafting a kiss and a sigh And they whisper of the spirit's torch That burns with flaming light in thee. Our Gamma Chi, Beloved Gamma Chi." 19 31 Page Seventy-four o I A. wn ! ft Page Seventy-five o A. II I 19 Alabama Club Florida Club 31 Page Seventy-sin I I o I A.

This year marks the beginning of a new system of awarding letters to athletes. Previously letters were awarded on the basis of amount of participation in college games of one season. Letters are now awarded by the point system, based on sports- manship, amount of participation in college games, and number of seasons out. The points of those who fail to make a letter one year are carried on till the next making it possible for a good "scrub" to earn a letter in his Senior year. This group represents the sportsmanlike and never die spirit with which Piedmont teams fight. The membership this year is the largest in the history of the organiza- tion. 19 31 Pmji Eiyhty-flvt I II O .V II I O'Rear Center and Captain Captain O'Rear proved his ability as a leader, as well as a good player. He was always inspiring his men even until the last whistle had blown. RlCKMAN Guard and Alternate Captain "Rick," as he was known, played his fourth and last year for Piedmont. It will be hard to fill his place. WORLEY End and Manager Worley protected his end of the line in a faultless manner. They could never outguess him. L. Chambers Fullback and Halfback "Sis" always hit the line with power and determina- tion, passed with superb accuracy, and could kick with the best of them. His shoes will be hard to fill. McGarity Fullback and Tackle "Mac" came to us from an old rival, Dahlonega. He filled his place, either in the line or in the backfield, with unusual ability. 19 31 Patic Eitjhty-six o A. II I Landri \i Guard "Phil" was always in the thickest (if the fight. He was one of the mainstays in the line. GUILL Halfback and Quarterback Guill started off the season as halfback and was a good one. but due to his knowledge of football, was shifted to quarterback where he performed as well. HlCDON Tackle Higdon was always a thorn in the side of the oppo- nents and especially when they tried to come over him. Gill Tackle Taft was one of the old standbys in the football game. He always stopped the line plunges of the opposing backs. Bass Halfback What Bass lacked in weight he made up in speed. He was hard to stop when he got in the open. 19 31 Page Eighty-Si < < n o I A. > *~ Hoyt Chambers End Hoyt has had the distinction of being the best little end to ever wear the Green and Gold and he did not fail to uphold this distinction. Ellard Quarterback Ellard, playing quarterback for the Lions for his sec- ond year, showed unusual ability as "signal-caller" in several of the games. HUFSTETLER End "Huf" didn't play all of the time, but he pla\ed enough to show that he was a real football player. Conner End Ed didn't get going until late in the season. His play- ing showed that he had a bright future in football. Starnes Halfback Clyde came to us from Piedmont Junior College and proved to be a very valuable man. 19 31 /a iii Eighty-eight VO W A.

FOOTBALL The "Lions" were not world beaters, but they were as good as Piedmont has ever put on the field. Bowdon State College Piedmont Clemson "B" Piedmont Alabama State Teachers College 6 . . .

Piedmont Rollins 7 Piedmont 13 The Piedmont boys fought hard, but could only get two ties to start on. Then they broke loose to beat a strong team from Alabama 13 to 6. Then the "Lions" journeyed down to Statesboro to be defeated by a one point margin. The boys next journeyed over to Newberry, only to bring back another tie. Piedmont suffered her second defeat of the season at the hands of a strong team from Tennessee. This game was played on a very muddy field in Toccoa, Georgia. Next was the Home-coming game, which ended in a defeat for the home team. The "Lions" found their fighting spirit and journeyed to Florida and handed the strong Rollins team their only defeat of the season. The following men have played their last time for Piedmont: Rickman, Worley, L. Chambers, McGarity, and Richardson. 31 Page Ninety o .V II I 19 Girls' Basket-Ball PIEDMONT has always been known to have a girls' basket-ball team as one of the best in the South. This year has been no exception. Even though many of last year's squad did not return there were several new players who easily caught on to Coach Harry's technique of playing ball. The team has gone thus far without a defeat on the Piedmont court although one defeat this season, governed by girls' rules, on the Young Harris court and with this defeat we still contend that Pied- mont's team excels the Young Harris team. We expect to prove this in a return game at an early date on the Piedmont court by boys' rules. We truly expect to keep up the old traditions of the team and of the Piedmont court. We hope it will never claim a defeat. Piedmont's team has been invited to enter the Southern Tournament in Louisiana. At this date no definite plans have been made, but great hopes and efforts are being put forth to enter. The scores of the season so far are as follows: Piedmont 26 Patillo Memorial 19 Piedmont 21 Central Presbyterian 19 Piedmont 26 Western Heights 11 Piedmont 18 Dahlonega 6 Piedmont 29 Young Harris 51 Dahlonega, \ oung Harris, Southern Business College, and probably Sears and Roebuck are to be played later on in the season. The basket-ball squad owes much credit to Coaches Forester and Jones for the victories of the season. We hope this year's team continues and upholds the tradi- tions of Piedmont. 31 Page Ninety-one o I A. J. HlGDON A member of a visiting team re- marked, "I'll lay it to Piedmont's cen- ter. She's the best yet." This is true. Joe is right in there and makes the whole business hum. She also does her part in raising the score. Joe, here's to you and basket-ball of '31 and '32! Malcolm Alice is a dandy guard. She's every- where, and she breaks up that opposi- tion no matter how strong. She plays a hard and speedy game, and Piedmont will lose a player this year whose place will be hard to fill. W. HlGDON What would the team do without Will? Will is like a stone wall against the opposition and that's why Piedmont came off the court wearing the laurels. She's right there on her job and Pied- mont has the ball again! Gill Rosie could not play the first part of the season because of illness. She has made up for this loss by playing twice as hard during the time she has been out. Rosie has a good eye for the basket, and what pretty goals she does rinc 31 Page Xinety-tico I 1 O A. II I A. 19 Boring Emma lias won her place among the best forwards. She has proved herself worthy of playing on one of the greatest co-ed teams in the South. Atkinson This is Miriam's first year playing for Piedmont, hut what a name she has made for herself among the Lions! She is graceful and has a good shot. Collins Pete was one of our best reserves. When she stepped into the game she proved that the five were not the only stars on the campus. Fleminc Beth was always ready to do her share in making Piedmont the winning team. She fought hard and checked the oppo- sition effectively. 31 Page Mm tii-tlii i !_ o I I 19 Claude Rickman Captain, Outfield Lewis Chambers Outfield Roy Lawrence Pitcher Hoyt Chambers Outfield G. M.
