DEMOREST, GEORGIA

To the youth of the world everywhere,
who seek the light of wisdom, and cherish
understanding and knowledge, for the
betterment of themselves and the world
in which we all live, this, the eleventh
volume of the Yonahian is dedicated. To
those who represent the future leaders,
and who have sought in their pursuit of
knowledge, with all the zest, adventurous
spirit, and ardor of their years, especially
the youth of Piedmont College, the fol-
lowing pages are a tribute. The pursuit
of wisdom is more elusive, stimulating
and generous in its rewards than any
chase or prize of the Spanish Main. No
buccaneer of a by-gone day ever pursued
a more valuable prize, or with more in-
tense determination, than those to whom
we dedicate this book. The wise men of
the world have always sought the treasure
chests of wisdom, learning and under-

standing, as they are more to be desired
than in u eh fine gold.

As the acquired treasure of pirates, now
long dead, is still greatly prized, so may
the achievements of youth, and Piedmont
students, continually be goal and treas-
ure, for the emulation and attainment of
future students. The days of Captain
Kidd will always stand for a period of
piracy. The relentless determination of
these pirates bold, has suggested itself as
a motif for the decorative theme of this
volume. As these buccaneers sought the
treasures of mundane commerce, with
constant fervor, the students, about
whom these pages center, are seeking the
greater incorruptible treasures, offered in
higher education. "To be a sailor of the
world, bound for all ports, a swift and
swelling ship full of rich words, full of
joys."

FOREWORD

CONTENTS

IN MEMORIAM

Daniel B. Atkinson

Born in Salmonia, Indiana, March Fifth, 1869;
Died in Demorest, Georgia, March First, 193 3.

Dr. Atkinson graduated from Union Christian College in 18 94, where he
also received his Master's and Doctor's degrees. His life encompassed two
professorships, two pastorates, the presidency of Jireh College, Deanship of
Palmer College, and the Chaplainship of Piedmont College.

Any attempted laudation of a life, so noble, so rich and so Christian is futile.
His life is its own most eloquent eulogy. To set aside this page, in the
chronicle of Piedmont College, is to pause as at a wayside shrine, in humble
devotion. To us, who sat at the feet of this great teacher, the loss of so keen
a mind and of such capable leadership is incalculable; but the memory of his
scholarly teaching and friendly counsel will be an enduring inspiration.

ATHLETICS

FOOTBALL SQUAD

/^OACH FORRESTER certainly had a job on his hands this year when the football
squad reported. He had to replace seven varsity men, who were lost to the team
through graduation, and any coach will tell you that it's no easy job filling the shoes of
men who have been playing under your guidance for four years. However, it wasn't
long before Coach, with the help of Lewis Chambers and Max Forrester, had replaced
these men and had two teams working in unison and with precision.

When the season opened it was to find the squad in good physical condition and dis-
playing a fine spirit. As a result the Lions were victorious, winning over a strong
W. C. T. U. team.

Even though the Lions did not win every game this season they did maintain a fine
spirit throughout the entire season and it was always after a real fight that the opponents
were able to come out victorious.

The following men have played their last game for the Lions: Higdon, Bass, Guill,
and Hallford.

Page 50

IN retrospect a decade is only a short
time. We look back, not over the
past year, but over the twelve years that
have elapsed since Coach Harry Forrester
took charge of athletics in Piedmont
College. The accomplishments of our
coach during this period stand out as a
monument to his coaching ability and the
sterling quality of his leadership, and a
bright spot in the chronicles of Piedmont
College. To have been a candidate for
football, basket-ball, or baseball has meant
much to our students, not only fine
coaching, but a personal contact with a
real man, that is unforgettable in the lives
of our athletes.

When Coach took over the athletic
department. Piedmont was playing a few
"prep" schools and some freshman teams.
These have been eliminated and competi-
tion for Piedmont athletes now includes
such colleges as were scheduled during the
past year: University of Miami, Ala-
bama Teachers, Tennessee Wesleyan, and
Western Carolina Teachers; all from
neighboring states. The records of this
period show that Piedmont has always
had more than an even break in these
competitions.

In addition to the strenuous duties of
football, basket-ball, and baseball, Coach
"Harry" is head of the biology depart-
ment of the college, where his work also
is outstanding. He has recently com-
pleted his thesis and received his Master's
Degree from the University of Alabama,
where his election to Kappa Delta Pi,
bespeaks his achievements in a great field.

HIGDON, Captain Tackle

"Hig," in playing his last year for the Lions, proved to be a good leader. He was not so
fast on offense but on defense he was immovable.
GUILL ... _ _ ..Quarterback

Besides running the team from quarterback position was a good blocker and ball carrier.
STURGIS _ __._. Guard

"Lengthy*' was right there again this year. He was a hard worker and was always found
in the midst of the battle. He was certainly strength to the middle of the line.
HALLFORD ._ __ _ _ _ Tackle

Fred, like all new men, was a little bit awkward at first but when the season ended he was
right in there with the best of them.
GILLESPIE _ _ Tackle

"Tiney," after being away for a couple of years, came back to don a uniform and take up
the duties of a tackle. He is big, powerful, and fast and it doesn't take the opponents long
to realize this, once he gets started.
CANUPP - - _ Halfback

Johnny was an old veteran at the game and he really knew how to puzzle the opponents by
giving them a leg and then taking it back and scampering to a touchdown.
BASS - - --- Halfback

Jack was perhaps the most elusive ball carrier we had, and his timely sprints around the
end for long gains and touchdowns will always be remembered.
PORTER - _ _ -- - - -- / nd

''Luther," although a freshman, was in every game because he knew his football. He was
down fast on punts and once he tackled the runner there was no further advance of the ball.
When he hit them they stayed hit.
SMITH - - ----- - - Guard

Bob in playing his first year as a guard proved to be the best lineman of the year. He
was constantly in the enemies' backfield when they had the ball and was always ready to give
real interference to the ball carrier.

ST API ETON Gswrd

slil, was nnc of the hardest fighters on the squad and won the admiration of both coach
and players. He should develop into a very valuable man.

McDONAl D Quarterback
Arlis, the diminutive quarterback, deserves plenty of credit because he took more punishment

than any other man of the squad. He directed the team well and kept a cool head on a!!
occasions.

OVI I NS - Center

Ted was a little green when the season started, but it wasn't long before he had worked
In msel t up to the varsity. ! le was equally good on offense and defense.

WOFF( >RI> Center

M Cow," who shared honors with Ted Owens at center, was noted for his ability to catch the
ball carrier just as he seemed to break from the line of scrimmage and head for the open field.
JONES / nd

Although he was hindered with a "trick" knee most of the season, you would always find
him ready and willing to carry on the duties of a good end.
PAGE ....... Halfback

Monford was one of the best offensive backs on the team and his hard tackling was the
main feature of every game.
HARRIS . _____ End

Even though the lightest man on the line he was always an obstacle in the path of the
opponent. His ability to catch passes pulled the I. ions out of danger many times.
SWINDEI L _ End

The smallest man in football that's Harry but my, how he could tackle. If he only had
the si/e there is no doubt oi him being an All -American.
I ARM! R Fullback

Ro\ was a I ways a threat. He had every ability of a good football player. He passed
accurately, punted well, ran hard and was a good blocker. U'hat more can be said about him?

GIRLS' BASKET-BALL

Courtney Guard

Rosalie is a dandy guard. She's everywhere, and she breaks up
that opposition no matter how strong. She plays a hard and speedy
game, and P'mont will lose a player whose place will be hard to fill.

: Jones . . - Center

This is Dolly's last year to play for P'mont. We are fearful lest
no one can be found to take her place.

Lumsden Center

Isabel has made a good beginning and we're glad to know she'll
be back next year fighting for the Green and Gold.

H

Dewar Forward

Sally was always there fighting for the Green
and Gold.

Justus Guard

We knew Lucy at Demorest High and knew
she could play ball.

Louise was anxious to do her part in playing the
game. She had plenty of pep and fighting spirit.

delivered "the goods."

GIRLS' BASKET-BALL SQUAD

TT THEN the November call was made for girls' basket-ball practice there was an
enthusiastic response. After two weeks of practice, the Piedmont girls won the
annual Thanksgiving game from the Alumnae.

Those who had earned their letter last year and returned to the squad were Emma
Boring, Rosalie Courtenay, Dolly Jones, Rubye Dodd and Sally Dewar. A goodly
number of the reserves from last year were also present.

Of the new material, Lou Anna Puckett, Mamie Moss, Voncille McKay, have made
a creditable showing. Mention must be made of the three freshmen who have earned
letters this year. Lucy Justus and Eva Hood must not go without mention on this year's
squad and we're counting on them for next year.

The close of the season found the girls of Piedmont with the advantage still on their
side. The eight game schedule, when completed, showed five victories and three
losses. Losing to two Atlanta teams, the Alpha Girls and Oakhurst, and W. C. T. C.
Winning from W. C. T. C, Pattillo of Atlanta, Piedmont Alumnae, and both games
with Dahlonega.

The prospects of a strong team for next year are fine, but the loss, by graduation,
of Courtenay and Jones will be keenly felt.

BOYS' BASKET-BALL SQUAD

' I ' HE Lions 193 3 Basket-ball season was very successful, losing only four out of
*~ fourteen games played. All four of the games were lost away from home and it
has now been two years since they were defeated on their own court, an enviable
record.

Hayncs is the only senior on the squad and if they all return next year they should
have an even better season and we look forward to the team of next year.

BOYS' BASKET-BALL

Mize Forward

The hero of nearly every game because, if there is anything outstanding in a basket-ball player it is his
ability to ring goals, and John's ability at this is unsurpassable. His pass work also helped others to score.

Porter Center

"Habersham" never believed in leaving an opponent open and when his man made a goal it
was always with difficulty because not only was he a good pivot man but also a good guard.

Canupp Forward

Johnny always played hard and played the game well, and his presence was
missed greatly when he failed to return the second semester.

*

Page Guard

Even though "Betty Jo" was only a freshman he has proven to Coach Harry
that he has the makings of a fine athlete. He was a good man to work with,
and believe me, he can certainly handle a basket-ball.

Haynes Forward

What he lacked in stature he made up in his ability to co-operate and work with the other players.
He was always a threat and ;- wa tni^htv hard to keep him off the varsity.

Page 58

BOYS' BASKET-BALL

Harris Guard

A good trainer and .1 hard worker .ire the essentials oi .1 good basket-ball player, and Harris is both;

thus he proved to be one of the moM valuable men on the squad.

Smith Guard

15ob while playing his fourth year with the lions was switched from a forward to .1 guard and
in doing 'o prosed that a good b.i'kct-ball player can play any position. He was not only a good
defensive player tor in pinches he would always come through with .1 long shot that was good for
two points.

Hudson Guard

"Mud," a letter man from last year was in there again this year with plenty
of fight and spirit.

Farmer

Forward

Even though Roy did not take scoring honors lie was a real asset to the team
because of his floor work. He was always on the ball.

W'oriORl)

Center

"Cow," after being out of school for two years came back to take up his old original place at
:enter, and proved to be a very good pivot man and also a crack shot.

HlGDON

Guard

Earl has contributed much to athletics and even though he did not stay out the entire season he
deserves credit for being a hard fighter and a good worker.

PIEDMONT FOR MINE

Among the hits of Habersham,

Where skies are ever blue,
Old Piedmont takes her stand

The pride of Dixie Land.
And while the waters of Lake Demorest

Make ripples in the breeze,
And rainbows glow with Green and Gold

The words we'll sing arc these

Chorus

It's Piedmont for mine, Piedmont for mine
That's the school I love the best,

Down in Georgia, Demorest,

The sun always shines on that place so fine

And I'll always say as I say today,
It's Piedmont for mine.

Friendships form that brave the storm

Of hardships great or small;
Our lives are molded here.

Our Alma Mater dear.
And when we enter in that larger life

In sunshine or in rain
Our hearts will turn again to Demorest,

And then again we'll sing

THE Young Women's Christian Association has, ever since its appearance upon the
Piedmont campus, endeavored to train Christian leaders and develop Christian char-
acter. This is being accomplished through the efforts of the Y. W. members in con-
ducting chapel and vesper services throughout the year. The threefold program of
the Y. W. C. A. has been of especial benefit to its membership and in the meetings
many problems confronting young women have been advantageously discussed. The
president of the association represented Piedmont College at the 193 3 Faculty Student
Inter-racial Conference held in Atlanta.

In conjunction with the Y. W. C. A. a joint project has received much attention
and planning. The Dutch Oven will be an appreciated addition to the student life of
the college.

r T~'HE purpose of the Y. M. C. A. on Piedmont's campus is to create and cultivate a
-*- Christian atmosphere in all activities. This year the organization has not only
sponsored some very inspiring and truly helpful addresses in private meetings, but has
inaugurated a new program of co-operation with the Y. W. C. A. The cabinets of both
associations meet together every Monday night and discuss problems confronting them
in Christian leadership. The Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. are jointly endeavoring to promote
the highest type of social life upon the campus. Teas and square dances have been
added to the social activities, through the efforts of the two organizations, in addition
to the regular receptions and the Christmas Lantern Walk.

The president of the local Y. M. C. A. was elected secretary of the state organiza-
tion this year, bringing more honors and recognition to Piedmont College.

"Not for selfishness nor gain
Nor for mean ends to attain,
But ideal to retain,
The fa Zeta Phi."

SUCH is the song which rings true in the heart of every Theta Zeta Phi.
That strong inner urge to become associated with a group, has been satisfied for
every Theta Zeta Phi, by becoming a member of the society. There is here an excellent
opportunity for training in leadership, and in co-operation. It is in such a group that

"Friendships form, that brave the storm,
Of hardships great or small."

Social life and literary achievement have gone hand in hand. The social life has
been made enjoyable by the various parties sponsored by the society for its members.
As for the literary standards they have been kept up to par by the inspiring Friday
night meetings.

When the name Theta Zeta Phi is mentioned, there is an instant deep feeling of
pride in the heart of every Theta Zeta Phi proud to be associated with such a group
of girls, and proud of the excellent ideals which the society upholds.

The name Theta Zeta Phi symbolic of truth, wisdom, and success is borne aloft by
each of its members.

THE J. S. Green Society was organized in the year 1897, for the purpose of develop-
ing the young men of Piedmont College, mentally, morally and socially. Much
progress has been made toward this goal in the last thirty-six years, and its membership is
constantly attaining new heights of achievement. The year 1932-3 3 has been a good one
for the Greens because its active members have worked with ardent enthusiasm and
determination. Miss Kathryn Foss was chosen as the society's sponsor. Miss Foss is a
popular and talented member of the student body, who has also added much to the suc-
cess of the society life this year.

The thirty-sixth anniversary program was presented in the College Auditorium, as
an open meeting, on March eleventh. A most unique presentation of the sponsor fol-
lowed by an enjoyable three-act play, "The New Sin," contributed to the success of the
year's activities of the J. S. Green Society.

THE Gamma Chi Society, from the beginning, has tried to uphold the highest ideals.
We have worked toward the advancement of each member in a physical, mental,
and cultural way. This year we believe we have been particularly successful.

Gamma Chi is an important factor in binding our Alumnae to our Alma Mater.
Through our growing Scholarship Fund, we hope to make the ties all the stronger
between past, present and future members.

The Eleventh Anniversary Program this year consisted of two parts: "Spreading
the News," and the presentation of the Sponsor, Mascot and Scholarship Girl. The
presentation was in a Japanese setting.

"For firm and staunch we e'er shall stand
Unto each other true,
And loyal to our noble band,
tiers, yea her own, our whole liies through."

THE Protropian Literary Society was organized thirty-five years ago. Since its or-
ganization it has stood for the encouragement of fraternal enlightenment and co-
operation.

The Protropian Society began anew this year with a real enthusiastic spirit, which for
a few years had been lacking, and sponsoring a more progressive program of debating and
literary work than in former years. In order to keep up the spirit in our debating, the
society procured a valuable trophy which will be given to the champion debater at the
close of the year.

The Protropians have exchanged some programs with the young ladies' societies.
This is a step forward in bringing together the societies of the campus.

The Protropians selected Miss Rosalie Courtney for their sponsor this year. Miss
Courtney is an outstanding leader of the campus in literary activities as well as athletics.
She also had the honor of being chosen the "Best-all-Round" girl on the campus.
