Foreword

M^^HIS, the first volume of the RAINBOW, rep-
C j resenting the historic Academy of Richmond
^^^^^ County and its associated institution, the re-
cently organized Junior College of Augusta, is an at-
tempt to interpret both the separate and the common in-
terests of the two organizations.

In choosing the name RAINBOW, the Editors have
thought of the Junior College and the new home for
the Academy as constituting a how of promise for
greater Augusta, as well as a goal of past hopes. We,
the Editors, sincerely hope that this volume will be in
keeping with the great institution that it represents.

Class Officers

WILLIAM BOONE JONES

President
"William," "Willie Boo," or just plan "Bill."
Anyway he was president of the first class
graduating from Junior College. We are all
fond of Bill, the girls in particular, and we are
proud of his success in more ways than one.
We feel that he can do anything if he wants to
and know he will always succeed as he has
done, in dramatics and debating. Emory cer-
tainly gets a good man in Bill.

WILMINA ROWLAND
Vice-President
There are some attributes we believe created
for Wilmina. First, she's simply lovely; and
there are very few people whom we sincerely
think lovely. She has a brain and an intellec-
tuality that make her lead in College class-
work; she possesses a personality, a sweetness
of manner, and an extra-ordinary executive
ability the five qualities that stamp her as
being truly an ideal girl.

HENRY JOSEPH HEFFERNAN

Secretary

"There is a past which is (/one forever, yet
there is a future which is still our own."

"General" has an enviable past and a gol-
den future. He was our president last year at
Noah's "A. R. C." and to add to his "list of
honors he has earned the highest cadet rank
in the R. O. T. C. this year, besides being our
class secretary. His personality and leader-
ship have made him the most popular cadet in
the entire corps.

JAMES LEE ETHEREDGE, JR.
Treasurer
Lee is one of our most earnest and active
workers. He is always ready to lend a helping
hand to a friend in need and wherever he goes
he receives the respect due to any gentleman.
He is well liked and we have no doubt but that
he'll make the grade everywhere as he has
here. Good luck, Lee.

ELBERT BARNEY ANDERSON
Elbert is one of the bunch who has been
plugging along with us from the very begin-
ning. We have known him as a leader in the
military department, a dependable friend and
an all around good fellow. Our classes would
have never been complete without Elbert. His
English themes are a weil-known source of
humor to those of his English section who
many times have been cheered by his lightsome
epistles.

MARY ANDREWS

We wouldn't take a million for Mary's being
in our class this year. Take attractiveness,
brains, and a gentle air of dignity, put them
in one tiny brunette and you'll have Mary.

LOUISE ARMSTRONG
It takes more than just a good personality
to make the friends that Louise did in so short
a time. But then Louise has a sweet smile that
is visible on all occasions, and people like that
are just naturally popular wherever they go.

JULIETTE AUERBACH
Executive ability, common-sense, good looks
and sweetness these attributes of Juliette's
make her one of the most greatly admired
girls of our class. For your work as President
of the Dramatic Club, for the way you've en-
tered all school activities, for your good sports-
manship in every circumstance, Juliette, we
thank you.

WILLIAM JOE BAIRD
"Not on the heights but climbing."
Joe has been very much excited by the addi-
tion of the co-ed department but he has surviv-
ed it surprisingly well. He is determined to
make the most of life in spite of his "Fessors."
He is so used to hot air that he finds it difficult
to live in such a cool atmosphere. Our best
wishes go with you Joe; and may you meet
success everywhere in life as you have met
it here.

MARGARET CURRIE
Margaret is as smart as she can be in Chem-
istry which is of itself "miff sed." The "win-
dows" of her soul, a pair of heavenly blue eyes,
bespeak a world of loveliness within her.

JEAN DAVIDSON
When Jean is around you quite naturally
break into a smile and enjoy the least thing
she has to say. She has a corner (especially
in the heart of a certain good looking Major)
in the hearts of each of us that will always be
marked "Reserved for Jean."

JOHNNY DAVID EVANS, JR.

"It doesn't pay to worry, the world looks better

from behind it smile."

Johnny certainly does believe in hiding be-
hind that smile of his. It is truly hiding too,
for nobody ever knows what he is keeping be-
hind his teeth. He sometimes tells us what he
thinks and when lie thinks it he means it. If
you like what might be called good "snapshots"
in the way of English papers, ask Mr. Read and
then you will know in what spot Johnny keeps
his heart. It can be truly said that Johnny is
a gentleman, a sport, and an athlete of the
highest type.

mvmmm

HELEN FENNELL
'Twas written of Helen once:
Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her
eyes, and in every gesture dignity and love."

MARY CAROLYNE FISKE
She's our proverbial little ray of sunshine.
Seriously, we do not think anyone could be as
wittv as Mary, nor any one more attractive.
It's been a happiness indeed to have been with
her this year because of her perpetual good
spirits, her common sense, her unselfish inter-
est in others, but most of all because she's
been the one inimitable Mary.

MARGARET GUNN
Margaret is one of those girls confined prac-
tically to story books. Gorgeous black, wavy
hair, clear, white skin, and eyes oh, fascinat-
ing!

LOUIS ALDWORTH HASKELL.

"It is not tc'hat you say, it is knowledge that
is power."

Louis doesn't talk very much but when he
does he is always rewarded with an A or A
plus. He rates first Major on the drill field
and is awarded two stars in track this year.
Louis enters University of South Carolina next
year and it is with much pride that we shall
send him forth as a representative of Junior
College.

LANGHORNE HOWARD
A sunnier disposition, more gloriously red
hair, or a sweeter girl than Langhorne we do
not know.

FLORIDE JOHNSON
Some time ago we heard a line that ran
something like this: ". . . with her whole hearfs
welcome in her smile," and we immediately
thought of Floride. Nose never shiny, shoes
always polished, dress always immaculate
girls, how does she do it?

ELIZABETH JONES
Dignity to spare, grace in abundance,

and

wisdom to store a decidedly individual "Eliza-
beth."

MINOT KNIFFIN KELLOGG

'Virtue lies in the struggle, not in tlie prize."
Minot is a very studious lad, as evidenced
by the fact that he alone continues to demolish
Latin composition out of an original class
of thirty-five. Everybody likes Minot; he is a
regular good fellow; never loath to contribute
his quota of humor to the classroom or party,
nor to do his best to accommodate any of his
friends. He intends to study medicine in Ger-
many and to establish himself here with his
father. We wish him the best of success.

m$mi

snnn

LOIS CLARE KELLY
A blonde. A face that fairly shouts of hap-
piness, a manner so refined and cultured
that's our Lois. What would the Dramatic
Club have done without Lois to be the inde-
scribable "Polly"?

HUGH BRYANT McPHAIL
McPhail is one of our all-around students.
Whenever there is anything going on or in the
midst of all the school's activities you can find
McPhail, and if there are any girls around
you can find him there, too. McPhail's sense
of humor has on more than one occasion chang-
ed a dull dry period into an interesting one
and all Junior College students ought to ap-
preciate this talent or whatever you want to
call it. Hugh keeps up well in his studies and
will be among the first to get their diplomas
when the superintendent says, "Come, get
'em !"

JOSEPH BERNARD POMERANCE

"It is not what you do, but what you yet caught
doing."

Joe aspires to be the leading sheik in the
class. He loves all the girls, and all the girls
love his chewing gum. He is always worrying
the teachers and amusing the classes with his
dry humor. He does good work when he can
forget about his radio.

VONCILE ROGERS
To enumerate the nice things we continually
hear of Voncile would take, oh, at least a day.
We can say definitely, though, that girls never
come any finer than Voncile.

ESTELLE SAWII.OWSKY
And speaking of prettiness, look at Estelle
(better known to a privileged few us "Ess!e"').
In basket-ball Estelle was a "knock-out ' for-
ward, in Physics she is outstandingly bright,
and in a bunch of girls she is as sweet and
sympathetic as possible. Then, isn't she an all-
round girl?

ASENATH SHIVERS
"Seeny" is just one of those girls you want
to run up to and squeeze because you aren't
quite sure so many qualities of prettiness, kind-
liness and sunshine can all be in one girl.

JAMES GUS SPETH, JR.
"He who steals my purse steals trash,

but

he who steals my cigarettes steals my heart.''

("us is one of the most ambitious members of
our class. He has planned great things for the
future, even school teaching; which profession
we know he would make a great success of as
he has uncanny ability in asking Mr. Markert
questions. He is class orator again this year
so we are assured another good oration. Gus
has always had our support and we all wish
him tin- best of success.

MAX MANUEL TAXENBAUM
"Make yourself an honest man and you may

he sure then is tine less raseal in the world."
"Taxi" lias brightened many a dark face
this last year with us. He always has some
good joke or some good news to divert our
thoughts. We don't know what he is plan-
ning to do. but with his smile and everlastiiiL r
cheerfulness he is sure to succeed.

ELLEN LYON TRIGG

To know Ellen is to be rich indeed, but to
be a friend of hers, well, that's a fortune be-
yond all measure. A heart more full of sun-
shine and goodness, a cheerier face was never
known; her laugh has become quite famous,
her wit more so. If anybody was ever univer-
sally liked, certainly it is Ellen.

EBWIN AUGUSTUS WAGNON, JR.
"Take every man's censure but reserve th>] own
judgment."
"Pedro" will listen to anybody, even the
teachers, but he always says what he thinks and
he is usually right. This quality of frankness
has won much esteem and credit for him. Pe-
dro makes his letter in basket-ball this year.
He was also captain of the "Blue Devils," the
South Eastern Champs in Junior basket-ball.
Pedro hasn't broadcasted any of his plans for
the future, but whatever he does we know

Class Poem

i With apologies to Longfellow.)

For a year we'i e worked together

Worked and played, eaeli with the other;

Worked through hours long and toilsome.

Played through hours gay and fleeting,

Learning things not writ in school-books,
How to make and keep true friendship.
How to lose, and, losing, win all,

Love of honor, hate of falseness,

.-111 of this the year has taught us.

Now has come the time of parting.

Come the time of sad leave-taking.

When our paths reach ever outward

As the fingers of a man's hand

Lying outstretched, turned to heaven.

But we start not on our journey

Empty-handed, having nothing;

We have all the year has brought us.

Glancing backward, looking forward.

So zee start upon our pathway

To the plaee our goal is planted.

To the spot for which we're striving

To the Laud of Something Worth While.

COLLEGE

ACTIVITIES

The Sidney Lanier Literary Society

Some nf the Students of the Junior College, feeling the need, and re-
alizing the importance of the activities fostered by a live Literary Society,
organized, under the direction of Mr. Hardy, the Sidney Lanier Literary
Society.

Early in January the Society was organized. The late start was due to
the incompleteness of the building. After careful consideration the pres-
ent name was adopted, and a constitution drawn up.

The Society has had a very good year. The outstanding feature was
an inspiring and helpful talk by Mr. Evans on the "Charm of Good
Books." We also had another noted speaker, Dr. Strauss, who spoke on
the life and work of Ibsen.

The social event was a "Moonlight Picnic" at Windsor Springs, under
the chaperonage of Miss Flisch and Mr. Hardy. All present had a very
enjoyable time.

We all wish to express our sincere appreciation to Mr. Hardy for his
untiring efforts to make this Society a success.

Despite the fact that this was the first Literary Society in the Junior
College, it has had a very successful year, and we hope that in the future
the activities of the Society will grow and develop even more than they
did this vear.

Dramatic Club

ONE clay last fall two girls went to a certain member of the faculty with the
marvelous idea of yetting up a dramatic club. This certain young man
beamed approvingly and suggested that they arouse some enthusiasm for such a
club. You can just bet they did. No need to say that there was just loads of latent
talent ( not so latent, either ) in the Junior College, for when the first try-outs were
held early in December a surprisingly large number of future Barrymores appeared
duly garbed to present their little performances. Not at all dismayed at the ill
luck usually connected with the number, thirteen of the contestants were selected to
become the nucleus of a club which bids fair to be outstanding next vear in Augus-
ta's dramatic activities.

As soon as the Christmas holidays were over the members held a meeting at
which the officers were elected. When the storm accompanying the mid-terms had
passed and we could all breathe easily, another set of try-outs was held. This time
( because we were getting so exclusive and proud of ourselves as players) five more
applicants were taken into the fold.

About that time the Club had decided to put on that ewer-delightful "Polly
With a Past." For the production of the play, three more boys were admitted into
the Club, bringing the total membership to twenty.

The Dramatic Club is. like the rest of the College activities, a mere infant this
vear it is nothing to make Mantel despair or Sophocles turn over in his grave,
but there are splendid prospects for it in its work next year. Very probably when
we Sophomores are graduated and gone we will hear of it again as "the Club." and
we will pat ourselves on the back and say. "Oh, yes, quite a Club. I was a charter
member, you know!"

It goes without saying, of course, that the "power behind the scenes" which
was largelv responsible for the success of the club with "Polly With a Past" was
.Mr. H. (). Read, the Director.

Hi - Y- W

J NE cold Friday early in January, eight College
girls met at the Y. W. C. A. to form a club
which corresponds in spirit to the hoys' lli-Y.
The Club has been a great success and will no
doubt become a permanent organization.
By the second meeting (held one week later),
seven girls from the Freshman class had been asked to
join, and a Constitution had been framed. The selec-
tion of the new girls was based on their being generally
representative of the Junior College girl.

And what fun they bad at those Tuesday night meet-'
ings ! Books, art, beaus, friendship, and even the stars
are parts of the programs which were presented each
time. Unforgettable trips to Mary's "Be Merry," plans
for picnics and hikes ( sometimes they got no further
than plans, too) and as this goes to press very definite
prospects of another week-end party at "Be Merry."

Hi-Y-W is. of course, very young, but for the seven
"old" girls and the eight new ones, they will elect next
year, there will be splendid opportunities to create
among the girls of the college the true ideals of the
Club "To create, maintain, and extend throughout the
Junior College and community, high standards of
Christian character."

The Tech Club

The purpose of this club is to establish a fellowship among the hoys that
are preparing to enter Georgia Tech. by bringing them together in school and
also outside of school in their social life. By this we bring about a better un-

Prophecy of the Sophomore Class

of the
JUNIOR COLLEGE OF AUGUSTA

7]| ACK after ten years. Ten years since the Junior College Orchestra had played their first and
only tune and the orchestra members had been forced to leave town or get mobbed by the
student body. I was just now daring to come back. Whether Kellogg or Wagnon had re-
turned to Augusta yet, I could not say. The last time I saw them Kellogg was going high
on a freight train and Wagnon was swimming the river. I had a pretty good idea where my
old classmates could be found so I headed around on Ninth Street to talk to Elbert Ander-
son. I know Anderson would be a policeman because where else on earth could he rind a
place that would t him so perfectly? Commanding voice, soldier-like appearance, disposition,
, all would make him a first-class policeman. Anderson was sitting at the desk. "Hello Ander-
said, "How are you getting along?" "All right," said Anderson. "I'm doing pretty good.
't been here but nine years a. id Tin already promoted to sergeant. How's that?"

"Where is Kellogg or Wagnon? Have they got back yet?" "No said Anderson. "They had better
not come back either. They are the ones that ruined the music and ruined our ears. They'd better not
ever come back." "Have you got anybody in the look-up that I used to know"? I asked him. "Nobody
except Gus Speth," he said, "He is starting five years for Disorderly Conduct." "Five years for disor-
derly conduct," I said. "That's a long sentence for disorderly conduct. The last time I was here you
did not get but thirty days." "Thirty clays is for a first offense," said Anderson, "But when you get
pulled three or four times a week for two or three years, we have to get harsh."

"Where is Heffernan stationed now"? I asked. "I suppose he is in the army after such a glorious
military career at school." "Stationed?", said Anderson. "You mean station. He's a hack driver at
the Union Station. Don't you know that you could be Grand Exalted Commander-in-Chief of Colonel
Goodwyn's rah-rah tin sword military department a id then go into the army and be the first one to
weaken? Now, instead of veiling 'Squads Righ'.,' Heffernan says, 'Cab, Lady?' Over here on your right."
right."

"Well, thanks for the information, Anderson." I told him. "I'll see you later. Right now I'm go-
ing to look up McPhail. I want to ask him where to find some of the women with whom I used to
go to school."

"I didn't know you drank," said Anderson. "Don't buy any of that stuff he'll try to sell you.
It will make you act strange. Even Wm. Jones, the secretary of the Y. W. C. A., after drinking
some of it thought he was so hard that two days la'er when they brought him in to answer the
charges, he told the judge: '(Hie) Boy, don't you ever (HIC) cross my path nor any of my buddies'
paths!" (Judge Haskell did not do anything except build a jail over him.) Haskell, when he was
not plowing, was Judge of Recorder's Court."

After I got to Broad Street I saw McPhail riding around in a hot sport roadster with four more of
our old buddies, Joe Baird. Wilmina Rowland, Ellen Trigg and Margaret Gunn. I signed them to stop.
(Stop the auto.) They stopped (everything) and I got in. "Sit right here Johnie," said Wilmina. "Let
me tell you all about what has happened since you've been gone." "As for myself," said Wilmina, I'm
a reporter for the city paper. I know nearly everything that concerns any of us, for when I get all
the scandal written up I start on the society column and what is not found in one will sure be in the
other. Sometimes I just run both columns in together.

"Joe Baird, here, is our society leader. When Joe puts on his blue tie with the big red dots and
then steps out, the Prince of Wales has to fall off of his horse twice more before he can get back into
my paper's society column. Joe learned his business while plaving in the Junior College Dramatic
Club.

"Ellen Trigg does not do anything much now except eat and grow fat. After these ten years she
has gained nearly minus two pounds.

"Margaret Gunn is drawing cartoons for the daily papers. When she submitted some of her
drawings to the Museum of Art in Chicago she was immediately given Rube Goldberg's place, Goldberg
was given the air.

"Now let me tell you about the others." "Go right ahead," I told her. "I crave to hear." "Well," she
said, "Lee Etheredge is a banker like everybody expected, I don't think. He banks all the money.
Every day when the boss closes the store he counts the money and then tells Lee: 'Boy, run down
to the bank and deposit this money*."

wgpgg^

"Elizabeth Jones was unanimously elected by the s'udent body to till the vacant librarian place
which she fills to perfection. Von can now go into the library and read without being interrupted by
the librarian and told to 'Keep quiet or go out." The library lias grown considerably in the last few
years. It includes about five hundred books by Florirle Johnson, they being the entire rst edition of
her 'Biography of My History Teacher." She was spired to write this book by her old classmates who
insisted that such a great historian should be iinm realized. Something should be wri'ten about her
that would remain, and according to Miss Jones, the Librarian, these books always will remain (on
the shelf.)

"Langhorne Howard lias grown rich in the las* year. She lias made a fortune by the very sift
which at one time caused us t<i jokingly call her 'Flaming Mamie." She poses for pictures advertising
'Golden Glint Shampoo.* Margaret Currie is the popular leader of the 'Woman's Missionary Society.'
Just like all the other members, she goes to the meeting about once a month ami goes to the theater
every night.

"Mary Fiske is a teacher. In the morning she teaches a class of little boys how to read and write,
hut what the little buys learn that come to see her in the evening. I can't say.

"Jean Davidson with her little Kodak has star-ed all of the photographers to death. At her stand

V'li the corner of Tenth and Broad Streets, she takes pictures of anybody for twenty-five cents per

'^exposure and develops the film while she changes your money. She also is advertising manager of Ju-

VjBette Auerbach's Traveling Theatrical Company. Af'er each performance they travel, traveling being

^le best thing they do. The leading lady of this company is Lois Clare Kelly, who has a hard time

.training to keep down surplus weight. If Kelly expects to do a Sara Bernhardt, she had better get

with a company under different management. A sen a ^h Shivers, another Dramatic Club graduate is

with them but now when they present "Lolly With a Last," she plays the leading role and Kelly plays

the part of the maid.

"Joe Pomerance and Max Tanenbaum, both true to their tribe,, are in the business. Max runs the
Tanenbaum Jewelry Co., while Joe owns a pawnsh >p. Max buys practically all of his jewelry from
his friend Joe who sells it to him cheap, not making but .50 per cent profit himself, while Max makes 75
per cent from his customers.

"Estelle Sawilowsky is the gymnasium teacher at the Junior College. Not even the mighty Major
Butler could perform the same feats of strength of her pupils, so closely have they followed her instruc-
tions on how to develop their muscles.

"Voncile Rogers is becoming famous as a mathematician. Her latest achievement was the inven-
tion of a slide rule that had an adding machine on ea"h end. Helen Fennell has made such a repu-
tation around here as a trained nurse that the Joins Hopkins Hospital sent members of its executive
staff to her to learn how to use a thermometer. Dr. Melvis Corbitt was the leading member of the
investigating committee."

"What has become of the little Irish girls that were members of our class?" I asked her. "You
know the ones I mean." "Yes," said Wilmina. "You mean Mary Andrews and Louise Armstrong. I
reckon they are still together. I've had their picture in my columns of the paper several times, but
I have never seen them when they were not together. We ought to see them now, though, for here comes
the St. Patrick's day parade."

"Dog-gone!" I said, "Look who's leading the parade! If it ain't Mary and Louise! Even <)1* St.
Patrick, himself, can't separate them."

"One more yet," said Wilmina. "Out of our whole class only one has so far chosen to get married
and settle down. Elizabeth Warner is now happily married and enjoying life in a large Indiana city.

THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF Till- CLASS OF NINETEEN
HCXDRED AND TWENTY-SEVEN

COUNTY OF RICHMOND, STATE < >F GEORGIA.
In the name of God. Amen.

We, the first graduating class of tin- Junior College, in the aforesaid County and
State, being of absolutely sane mind and memory, and realizing us we do that our days
at this glorious institution are about to come to a close, that our physical and mental tor-
tures will soon he changed to pleasant memories of the long ago, do hereby declare, make,
publish, and ordain this instrument to be our last will ami testament.

In going oyer the names of our Honorable Faculty, searching diligently for men
capable of undertaking a task of great magnitude and responsibility, we have, after con-
siderable trouble, chosen as executors of this will, two men thai in our minds are the
least susceptible to crookery. the Hon. Anion Paul Markert and Mr. J. A. II. Begue.

I'l'l'.M 1. To Dr. George P. Butler, our dearly beloved president, wlio has stone to
such untiring efforts to make tliis first class of the Junior College, his class, we leave
one over-size Parker Duofold fountain pen. tilled with red ink with which to dot his "I's."

[TEM 2. To Dean Jimmy Lister Skinner, our locksmith, who has become so popular
with coeds, we have one good alibi to tell his wife when arriving home late from school.

ITEM .'!. To Miss Kitty P. Boggs we leave oils cony of Spicy Stories" and also
one two-year's subscription to ('apt. Billy's Whizbang, in order t! at the classes that fol-
low us may not have to listen to her terrible attempts at jokes.

ITEM 4. To Julia A. Flisch, advisor of men, and dean of women, we bequeath one
autographed picture of Mr. Heffernan, also one man with brain capacity excelling her own.

ITEM 5. To Miss June Rainsford we bequeath one volume of "How I overcame Sel-
fishness," written in collaboration by Lee Etheredge, Mary Fiske. and Robert Powell, also
one large valve to be run by compressed air. generated by the clogging of feet on the libra-
ry floor, said valve to furnish the Sh-h-h-ing noise which seems so necessary in the library.

ITEM C. To Justin A. II. Begue. Esq., we leave Petrowski's frock coat and Wind-
sor tie, feeling that these will match his otherwise musical appearance, also suggest that
he go west in order to acquire a good sense of humor.

ITEM 7. We beg to appoint Jules Carson our big "be" man football coach, mascot of
the coeds, in order to see what he can do with them.

ITEM 8. To Charlie Guy Cordle we leave one new Ford to replace his old one which
seems to be showing signs of wear.

ITEM !). To J. M. Ellis we beg to leave the latest edition of "Hints on Etiquette" to
help him overcome his rudeness in the classroom, also one set of exercise springs in order
that he may develop his poor weak body.

ITEM 10. To John Evans Eubanks we leave one "crimson and gold jazz-bow," hop-
ing that he may acquire the same degree of skill in wearing it at a collegiate angle in
chapel, as does his president.

ITEM 11. To Col. Albert G. Goodwyn we leave one R. (). T. C. model, said model to
have his tie tied, sleeves rolled down, and his hair neatly combed.

ITEM 12. To Eric West Hardy we leave one ease of J. C. Schnapps chewing tobacco,
also one porcelain lined cuspidor to be placed iu his classroom. In addition to this, we
feel that all corners in his room should be whitewashed to insure the use of said articles.

ing Till Two A. M.," by the Hon. W. J. Baird. Also one toy filling station in order to keep
him in at night.

wild game of all kinds, also one ease of Mellen's Baby Food to insure his good health.

ITEM 15. To Henry Osgood Read we bequeath one tie. sock, and handkerchief set,
together with pen and pencil, to match his baby blue eyes.

ITEM 10. To our poor stepped on and mistreated friend. Cousin Cassius. we leave
one barrel of soothing syrup to quiet his strained and overworked nerves.

ITEM 17. To C M. Sutton we beg to bequeath one volume of "How to Manage College
Freshman."

ITEM 18. To J. L. Talley we beg to leave one toy electric set. in order that he may
try to discover the proof of the negative electron theory during his spare moments.

ITEM 111. To the professors in the A. R. C, the class would like to give a little advice.
Don't give up : it takes some circuses six years to train a jackass look at our class !

ITEM 20. To the members of the College Faculty as a whole, we wish to express our
gratitude and appreciation for the help that they have extended us during this year.

IX WITNESS WHEREOF. We have hereunto set our hand and seal, this twentieth
day of May. in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred ami twenty-seven, in the year of our
foundation the first.

In the name of "Lulu Ballulo." Amen. Signed, THE S( >PH( >M< >RE CLASS,

Class History

fl UNE IT, will see the realization of a great educator's dream, for on that day
^T the first graduating class will go forth from Junior College. This occasion,
^^ quite a memorable one for us, should not pass without some written testa-
ment of the class history. One writer has said that history is nothing more than
a series of biographies, but lack of time and space here prevents the presentation
of individual biographies.

The real story of the Class of '2? begins at Tubman and at the old Academy,
where for five long years we have worked and played. This past year
has seen the culmination of our activities together as a class. On a bright, late Oc-
tober day, we assembled at the splendid new building to begin the last year of our
college careers in Augusta. We were promptly initiated, whirl-wind fashion, into
the prolonged agonies of Mr. Scruggs' chemistry; some poor unfortunates were
forced to look on approvingly while Mr. Ellis toyed with the internal organs of
huge frogs; and a majority found themselves deeply and hopelessly overwhelmed
in the painful intricacies of the Saxon government. All of which we thought abso-
lutelv unnecessary for college sophomores. The girls, in those first few days had
chances to come into actual and pleasurable contact with President Butler and Dean
Skinner; the boys, in turn, had the inspiration of knowing Miss Flisch (who 'tis
rumored, developed an uncommon affection for the boys of her History 61 Section).

The Class of '27 is an unusually energetic and creative one. Early in the vear
the Sidney Lanier Literary Society, a Dramatic Club, and later, the girls' Hi-Y-W
were formed. Each of these organizations has done a remarkable amount of work
and given to its members a great deal of pleasure.

And now, we have come to Class Day. No need to say that the occasions at-
tending our graduation are sad ones we all feel it. The friendships that we have
made here, and those dearer ones we have perpetuated may be unavoidably broken.
The members of this class may never meet again together in the whole-hearted inti-
macy of today. The years that are to follow can never obliterate from our hearts
the days of supreme happiness that we have known here. Whatever petty
trials and hardships we have experienced, we have naturally been wont to enlarge
upon, but now that we have reached the summit, and the realizations of our visions
surround us, the retrospective view is one of just pride.

The day of the continuous comedy is over now, and whether the curtain that
rises on the next act will disclose the same kind of scenes we cannot tell, but at
least we have the satisfaction of knowing that our achievements, whether great or
small, have been done through the best and finest that is in us.

Class Day Oration

By Gus Spct/i, Jr.

^~y f] E arc gathered here today to participate in the first class day exercises of
LaJ our Junior College. We are all aware of the fact that to speak of class day
exercises as momentous occasions is an old form, which ordinarily might
be considered trite. But this is indeed a momentous occasion, because it represents
the consummation of the first year in the history of a new institution, and because
it also stands for a new achievement in the cultural effort of the members of this
ciass. For the new college, it is an occasion of bright prospects, for this class it is
an occasion of both retrospect and prospect.

It would not be improper for us to indulge in hopeful prophecy, for an insti-
tution which was founded in response to a genuine need, and, which has had such an
auspicious beginning. At this hour we must give ourselves assurance that it will
fulfill the promise and the destiny for which it is created. Under the wise adminis-
tration of its officials and faculty and supported by the love and loyalty of a great
cultural community, it is bound to fill a conspicuous place in the future life of
our city and of our commonwealth.

While all life is properly consecrated to the great ideal of service, the life of
every man is roughly divided into the period of preparation and a period of appli-
cation of what he has acquired to the great problems of the world. A statement
of this kind does not imply that we shall cease to be constantly preparing ourselves
to meet the issues of life with higher efficiency of hand, and head and heart. It
does not mean, fellow classmates, that we have reached a period where we must
assume our part of life's responsibilities. We have come today to the cross roads of
destiny. We leave the tender protection and ministrations of the home and the
kindly counsel and instructions of the class room. We go out into the world to
fight the battles of humanity. Our equipment is the inspiration of high ideals, the
preparation of trained minds, and the courage of brave hearts.

Education in its literal meaning, implies not only a fund of information, but
comprises the cultivation of all those moral ideals and principles that are necessary
to guide us through life. By high moral culture we are enlightened, ennobled, ex-
alted, purified, and brought nearer to that perfection that is acceptable to God. It
is through education that religious holy influence is shed around us ; that we are
given the light of a higher knowledge, a humane heart, and a wiser judgment. Since
God breathed into the senseless clay, and man sprang into life, there has ever been
a ceaseless impatience to know. Education gives knowledge, refines taste, softens
decisions and give a better understanding of mankind. It matters not with what
strength of intellect or force of character nature has endowed man unless his
mind has had the training which education alone bestows, he can never hope to rise
to eminence in civilized society. It is the men of education and intellectual training
who shape and control the destinies of the world, who found new empires and
who govern the old.

It has been said that life is a grim battle and this world a great battle field.
Yes, it is true, this world is a great battle held, and today its battles are being con-
stantly fought between the forces of good and the forces of evil. Never before has
justice been so attacked and threatened bv injustice, honesty by dishonesty, love
by hatred, temperance by intemperance, fidelitv by infidelity and mercy by cruelty.
These great forces are always at warfare some trying to uphold great principles of
truth and integrity, others to tear down and destroy. With this great thought, it
behooves each of us to take a look into the future on which rests our destiny. What
is the first thing we should have in mind ': I cannot better answer this question than
in the words of Daniel Webster, who. when asked what the greatest thought of
his mind was, promptly replied. "My responsibility to my God." This ought to be
the basis and inspiration of the great career we go out to seek. Another thought we
should constantly keep in mind is an answer to a question asked the richest man in
our country. He was asked what his greatest desire and ambition was. llis reply.
"To serve my fellow man.'" These are the fundamental avenues of service that
lead to ultimate success and happiness. As some one has said, what we do for our-
selves is temporal and dies with us, but what we do for others is eternal and lives
for ever. We who have been blessed with a college education, must be of service
to the untutored by extending a helping hand, for unless we lift them up they
will pull us down, and with us the entire fabric of our civilization.

The sacred voice of inspiration has told us that there is a time for everything.
time to work, time to play, and time to pray. These are the elements of humane
character, with which God has endowed each of us. But, fellow class-
mates, it is reserved for each of us to be the great alchemist as we work out the
proper formulas for each of our lives. How we compound these elements in our
lives will measure the degree of our progress and our success. We become the ar-
chitects of our own fortunes, the masters of our own destinies. Then let us cher-
ish these thoughts and give them meaning in our lives. Great men live for today
and perhaps the day after today, but their great deeds for others live on through the
centuries.

Friends, as we stand on the height of cultural development, the education that
this school has given us. let us put ourselves in the pla~e of the youn- man Abra-
ham, to whom God committed the great task of founding a nation. God led him
into the world and said: "Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where
thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land
which thou seest. to thee will I give it . . ." We. fellow classmates, are like this
young man. the world is ours to take, but we must possess the courage to do or
die, faith in God, in our fellow men. and in ourselves. Let us lift up our eyes and
behold the limitless riches of the future.

Fellow classmates, with sublime faith and hope and courage, we turn now to
face the challenge of the greatest century in all the history of the world. These
physical bodies of ours shall know alike the inexorable degree of nature. But may
this unconquerable spirit of youth sustain us triumphant to the end. Far down the
}ears may the heroic figure of grav Ulysses inspire us to purpose yet to sail beyond
the light of all the Western stars until we die.

in every respect.

GEORGE ROYAL SIBLEY
Vice-President.

George migrated from Summerville in 1922,
and was making splendid progress until the
Junior College, with all its beauty, was annexed
to us. Then, since the ladies would give him
no peace, he decided to accommodate them, and
entered Junior College in February. Sibley
held the honorable office of Vice-President this
year, and we certainly hate to see him go.
George has many friends who all wish him
success.

FRANK BLEVINS THOMPSON, Jr.

Secretary

"A drum! a drum! Macbeth doth come!"

Tech a good man, if he doesn't go to 'Bama.

BROADUS HAMPTON WEATHERSBEE

Treasurer
"Hiram" received his early training at the
Beech Island Institute. He excels in helping
girls make candy. He was a very valuable

a bright student but the faculty doesn't real-
ize it. Anyway we hope you'll get your "dip,"
"Hiram."

JAMES ALTON COOK
Athletic Representative
Jim is a real football player and has won
the highly prized "R." He is also a captain and
is a credit to the military department.

GERALD ANTHONY ARMSTRONG

plies.

E. SEELYE CARRIGAN
Seelye is going after his "dip ' in a deter-
mined manner. He is full of life and has a
smile for everybody. If he sticks to problems
in life as he has stuck to athletics, he'll be head-
ed for a success.

FRANCIS GOULDING CLARK

Francis blows a "dutch pipe" in the band
and this takes up a large part of his time. He
generally gets what he is going after and does
it in a quiet way.

CLARENCE RAMSEY CLIATT
Clarence is the player manager of the base-
ball team. He is a hard worker and deserves
his position.

GEORGE FREDERICK CLAUSSEN
George is always happy or at least he looks
that way. He has a good word for everybody
and around school he is as famous as his fa-
ther's "Sponge Cake."

EMORY J. COOK
Emory has a special patented "laugh" that
is guaranteed to make others laugh. He is also
a butcher of note.

HARRY E. DAWSON
"Sleepy" has dozed in and out the school for
four years. It is a mystery how he gets any of
his lessons for it appears that he is always
thinking of something a million miles away
from where he is. However he is still with us
so he must have some special system of appre-
hending, which is unknown to us.

JAMES AQUILLA DYESS
"Pinky" won his letter on the football team
this year and played some real football to get
it. He is also a lieutenant and is one of the
most popular boys in the class.

WILLIAM WRIGHT EATON
Bill is quite a shark in Physics. He is com-
pleting the four year course in less time than
the rest of us and is making a fine record.

THEODORE HARRY ECKHOFF
Harry is a quiet fellow and has just been
noticed recently. He is making a good record
and this has made him prominent. "A real
gem shines no matter where it is."

LEWIS FLINT
"Mushy" is slow and easy going and is
popular with all who know him. He has made
good records in his studies while he has been
with us. It is certain that he will be a success
in whatever be undertakes.

SAMUEL ANTHONY FORTSON, JR.
Sam decided to play football this year and
made his letter. Sam is always wide awake
and always ready for a good time. He is very
popular with the boys, and also with the girls.
Sam's personality should gain for him a high
place in life.

BEX. FULGHUM

"Beware of the quiet."

Ben has showed us the worth of the little
man. This year he was manager of the track
squad and not only showed his ability to man-
age but to do, as his work was some of the best
done on the team.

JAMES GARDINER
"Jimmy" has always been a supporter of the
football team and has served it with the best
of his ability. Acting as mascot, waterboy and
finally as business manager, he has made many
friends among the teams as well as among his
classmates.

RUDOLF GEHRKEN
"Behold, the ladies' man." Since the co-eds
entered our building Ruddy has never had a
minute's peace. His ability to make and keep
dates has amazed us beyond words.

ROBERT GOODWIN

"I'll cut you a brand new ," yes, that's

Robert. He has always kept us laughing when
we were sad and his sympathy had no bounds.
Robert will certainly leave a hole in the
ranks when he goes to Georgia next year.

JAMES CLARENCE HARRISON
"Jit" is known by all; is liked by all; and
at all the football games is followed by all
in yelling. He is a first rate cheer leader and
keeps the crowd's spirits up. "Jit" has a good
personality and finds it easy to make friends,
and to keep them. He should he a huge suc-
cess.

PARKS HENDEE
He is the class poet, he is. "Jimmy" leads
a poetic life if a hajipy one can he called
that. He is well liked by all and will make
Clemson one of the finest men she ever had.

LESTER HELM
"Hes" is our old artist. Here we have an.
other quiet lad. He sticks to his studies and
follows the old axiom of the postage stamp
"sticking to one thing till he gets there."

WILLIAM LANIER
"Buck" is our man. He swaps words of
wisdom with Mr. McLeod while we rear back
and listen. "Buck" can shoot hull even better
than his father can shoot traps.

SAUL LEVY
Saul is going after his "Dip" hard, or so it
seems from the questions he asks. Here's
hoping you get it, Saul.

HERBERT CALHOUN LORICK

Herbert is tlie golfer of old Richmond.

(.US FRANK MADEBACH
Gus is a good boy and words hard. He won
the prize drill one year and is an asset to the
military department.

JAMES MIDDLETON MASON
"Jimmy" is among the most popular boys in
school. Besides being a letter man in football,
basketball, and track he was selected as one of
the Majors in the military. We know he will
succeed.

WILLIAM PENLAND MAYSON
"Pen" is a good boy and tries hard. A
"dip" is a hard thing to get but we know he
will be there for his in June.

JOHN JOSEPH MORRISON
John is a quiet fellow and very slow in
speech. He is a hard worker and we know that
he will get there in the end.

CsTTTTT

EDWARD JOSEPH MULHERIN
"Eddie" is a prince, and is liked by every-
body in school. He may not be the best of
scholars, but he's all there in Athletics. If
being well liked helps one to get his "dip" we
know he will get his.

ANDREW C. PERKINS

"Perk" is liked by all of his class, and though
he is small, the Colonel saw his worth in the
Military department and made him a Captain.

ROBERT BRANTLEY PLUNKETT

Bob is always full of fun and ready to do
anything. He may not be an honor man but
we know he will be there in June for his
"Dip."

GEORGE THOMAS POWERS, III.
George wandered in from Sandersville,

and after looking around decided to honor us
with his presence. George has been with us
two years, and during this time has proven
himself a regular fellow. Besides advancing
to the rank of 2nd lieutenant he has stuck with
his class leaders.

JOHN WILLIS RADFORD

John is another one of those fellows who
thought Richmond would help him. He came
down from Camak last year and proceeded to
raise our estimation of that town. John, al-
though very quiet, has advanced steadily in bis
work and seems to realize the object of the
game.

.MILLARD HIXON RIGSBY
"Still Waters Run Deep.''
Millard is the kind of fellow that the faculty
admire, heeause he never gives them any trou-
ble. He handles his own business, too, and is
therefore liked by all. Millard is Secretary of
our Literary Society, and has proven himself
very efficient. We all wish him well.

JOHN SCHARNITZSKY
John is our bandman. Even above the
clash of instruments his bass horn can be
heard most distinctly. His favorite sport is
bulling L T ncle Bill but he gets there just the
same.

HENRY LOUIS SCHMIDT

Henry entered with the rest of the Sunimer-
ville "drifts" but immediately proceeded to set
the path afire with his hidden ability. In his
studies an honor every year; in the Military
Department the rank of First Lieutenant. In
both he was aided by his splendid figure. Then,
since this did not seem to affect him in the
least, he was taken into our rank. "Smitty,"
we wish you luck.

GILBERT RAY SCHUMACHER

'The Faculty Helps Those Who Help Them-
selves."

Gilbert is another one of those mountain
goats, coming down from Summerville in 1923.
He is a hard worker and is respected by his
classmates as well as by the faculty. Gilbert
proved his ability by being chosen to repre-
sent us in the Oratorical Contest, stepping in
the place of our former champion, Joe Mullar-
kv.

ROBERT LEE SMITH
This is a sad story of how character hinders
progress. Bob would have been a Major if he
could have kept from smiling. Robert has
proven himself a true sport both at and away
from school. He stands high in the athletic
rating. He was considered one of the best
track men last year, and was elected captain
of the 1927 team which position he fills ex-
ceedingly well. Bob is our Art Editor and
plans to continue his studies at Carnegie Tech,
and we feel sure that Richmond could never
be better represented. -

WALTER SHAYS SMITH. JR.
If silence were golden Walter would be a mil-
lionaire. Aside from his sputterings to Mr. Mc-
I.eod, you would never realize his presence.
It is too bad that Walter never notices the
fair sex, for he would make a model husband.
Good Luck, Walter.

ROBERT GERALD STRAUSS.
"He looks dumb, but he ain't." Robert came
over by the sun dial one spring morning four
years ago, and bis giggle has been carrying
him along ever since. In the last two years
Hubert has been Stepping out in his studies
because most of us were stepping out to our
dates. Never fear-some dame will tear down
his lead yet. Robert realizes what he's here
for, and when he leaves us, some school will
gel a good man.

SOLOMON TANKNBAUM
"Sol" hasn't any wives (as yet), but he's all
there with the knowledge. Although not a mem-
ber of the Jewish Athletic Association, he has
set a nace for the Senior Class. "Sol" seems
to know all about the subject being discussed,
but will calmly wait until the windy members
have blown out. He then gives us the facts.
We are sure he will be a success in any enter-
prise he undertakes.

JAMES CHARLES THOMPSON

James, as you might guess from his name, is
very dignified and excels in all his studies
and is one of the debaters on this year's team.
He is headed for Tech next fall. We know
he'll make good.

WILLIAM OLIVER WALL, JR.
./ word hi the wise is sufficient."
Bill entered way back yonder when the
Americans were breaking the "Hindenburg
Line," he and 20:3 more freshmen, and he hasn't
been called down since by any member of the
faculty. We all wish him success where fate
might lead him.

FRANK AHMSTUONG WHITE, JR.
We have never been able to see any strength
in Frank as indicated in his name. He is by
far the smallest of our class, and is noted for
his "loud talking and wise cracks" (especially
on the drill field). He is one of Col. Goodwyn's
permanent demerit class members. FranJ:
gave the whole Senior Class a shock by appear-
ing in our ranks about the time Santa came.
He is exceedingly smart, finishing a & year
course in 3 -J years.

OLLIE JEFFERSON WILHELM
"Ollie" is a very quiet type of boy, but we
all know still waters run deep. He is working
faithfully for his diploma and may often be
seen in friendly conversation before entering
Mr. Hardy's class.

ROBERT WARREN WILSON
"God's Gift to the Ladies."
"Red" was elected Mr. "ARC" at the begin-
ning of the year, and as yet, has not a rival
for the crown. Wilson is busy just now in
getting his "dip" and we know that Tubman
misses him. Red, besides being a good marks-
man in the C. T. C, "bullshooting society," is
a good student. Didn't he pass Sc-41?

ERNEST MONROE WATKINS
Buck is liked by all, even by the members
of his prize-platoon. Buck is a good athlete
and is running the hurdles for Richmond this
year. He delights in scaring th? freshmen on
the drill field, and sending Deas to the "Bull
Squad."

EUGENE A. WOODWARD
An aspiring young d;ntist came to us not
so many years ago and has been "pulling"
along every since. "Gene" expects to enter
Cleveland rental College ft its next term of
school. We all hope his profession will be
painless, and that he builds up a prosperous
business.

Class Prophecy, Senior Class A. R. C 1927

T WAS one day right after graduation when I took a short hunting trip
in the nearby woods with my dog as a companion. I did not fall asleep
or I would have known it ; I was met by no band of dwarfs and given a
drink like our old friend Rip Van Winkle, or I could have remembered it ;
but when I returned from that trip everything had undergone a wonder-
ful change.

As soon as I had emerged from the low-hanging branches of the mighty oaks
and the whispering leaves of the poplars, I was astonished to note the bird-like
creatures in the sky. There were aeroplanes galore, their mighty engines roaring
and humming, but the most surprising thing was the people with wings, flying
around like birds. I found out later that these strange contraptions had been in-
vented by a pupil of "( )ld Historic" and that he was no other than the well known
Robert Wilson. It was said by someone that the reason he had invented them was
that this would probably be his only chance of using wings.

After gazing at this wonderful spectacle for a time. I picked my weary way
along the path and soon came to the road. I say road but 1 don't know what it was
called for it was a "flowing road," moving along like a river while on the other
side was another which was running the opposite way. After a while I summoned
enough courage to step on it and was surprised to feel it taking me along as if I
were in an automobile. 1 was rather tired by this time and, looking around, hap-
pened to see a bench or two and also several hammocks swinging between upright
posts on this wonderful road. 1 walked over to these and saw that benches and
hammocks on one side had a sign over them which had the word "White" on it.
( )ver the others there was a sign which said "Colored." As I sat down on a bench
a dark form rolled from one of the "colored" hammocks and I was surprised to
see none other than William Henry Stevens, Sr., the janitor who had been at Rich-
mond during my long sojourn there. He had a big cigar in his mouth and his
whole front was illuminated by an immense stone on his tie. The stone looked
more like a Ford headlight than a diamond. lie took a small package from
his pocket and unloosening it took two cloth-like wings from it. Attaching these
to his arms he gave a flap or two and was gone while the smoke from his cigar left
a trail behind him like a train.

Soon I was in the city and here I jumped from the road. I walked along and
turning a corner humped into Blev Thompson. He recognized me but was rather
surprised at my suit which was very different from the one he had on, for styles
had greatly changed since I had been gone. Blev told me that he had made mil-
lions on his invention of a motor which ran on water. He said that he had been
inspired while taking Physics under Mr. Talley and after working many years had
at last turned out a motor which was used in the aeroplanes of that time. Auto-
mobiles were no more they were entirely too slow for the age.

We walked on and passed an immense butcher shop. Blev said that Emory
Cook was making a fortune in this business ; that he had discovered a way to raise
cattle without paying any attention to them. When they reached the right size.

they would commit suicide and thus keep down muii unnecessary expense. All of
this was caused by feeding them on a special brand of hay known only to him.

Blev told me that the "flowing road" was invented by "Sleepy" Dawson. He
also remarked that Eric "Jay Bird" Barton had a private school and was teaching
the pupils to say "cawn't," "hawf," and "dawnce," instead of the forms used by
most of us. He said that Dick Edwards, our old class president was giving cor-
respondence courses in "The way to become an Expert Soda Jerker in a week."
Blev said that Dick was steadily rising in this profession.

Blev told me that "Jit" Harrison was running a dancing school ; that Jimmie
Gardiner and "Juny" Schmidt were coaching the football team at Lucy Laney, while
Lester Helm was giving singing lessons once a week at Uncle Bill's night school.

Saul Levy and Jeff Curry had both joined the Navy and were now Admirals.
Bill Wall was the Senator from P. G., while McMichael was the representative
from Frog Hollow.

Blev also mentioned the fact that Bernard Armstrong was now Colonel at
Richmond, obtaining that position on account of his talent for drilling and his
manly appearance in the olive-drab uniform. His lengthy service also helped.

Gus Madebach had opened up a fruit stand at Eighth and Broad, while Jim
Cook had gone in the Pawn Shop business after graduating from a school presided
over by "Little Joe."

Jimmie Mason, Jim Thompson, and Andrew Perkins had all joined the Nat
Reiss shows and were becoming famous. Herb Lorick and Sam Fortson were
giving free golfing lessons at the Community Links which were situated on top of
one of the larger buildings.

Stewart Auerbach and Percy Barnard had been automobile racers but since
the auto had disappeared they had settled down and were living on the interest from
their money.

"Pinkie" Dyess, "Ginnie" Flint, and Parks Hendee had gone to Hollywood
and there had replaced Richard Dix, Ronald Colman, and John Gilbert. Enoch
Garrett had become a professional strong-man with John Robinson's circus after
he had swum the English Channel with his hands and feet tied.

George Claussen had become a coal miner while Bill Eaton was teaching "Sci-
entific Courses" at Milledgeville. Robert Goodwin had become music master of
the Paul Moss Band.

While I had been learning all of this, we had been walking all over the city.
There were buildings so tall that you couldn't see the tops. These had been built
by the Rossignol Construction Co. Charles Rossignol, the boss of this concern,
had decided to build tall buildings to make up for his abbreviated height.

Gilbert Schumacher was now the owner of the Partridge Inn Riding Club.
During his off hours he gave coaching classes in "The Correct Way to Become an
Orator." Buck Watkins was the most eloquent speaker in the House of Repre-
sentatives due to the coaching classes given by Schumacher.

By this time I was exhausted so I made Blev show me the way to go home.
He took me around a corner and there we entered a peculiar type of aeroplane.
Blev spoke a few words in a transmitter and immediately the plane began to move
forward. In a few seconds it was leaving the ground and was soon tearing through
space at a terrific speed.

WiM.

m

We arrived at my house in a minute or two and I got out. As Blev was leav-
ing he told me that Ed. Mulherin. Boh Plunkett, and Ben Fulghum were members
of the Augusta Police Force, while David Potter, the Hercules of the age, wa>
teaching physical development at Paine College. He also stated that George La-
bouseur had published a number of books for school boys on the subject, "The Cor-
rect Way to Make Love Between Periods." A great many of these books had been
sold at Richmond and as long as Junior College was a part of the institution, Mr.
Labouseur would have a pretty good income.

As I started in the house I fell asleep and knew no more. The activities of the
day had been too much for me.

THE END. R. L. S.

The Class History

X THE year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-three, there strag-
gled into the "Old Historic" two hundred and eleven boys, green and
growing, knowing but little of what was before them and perhaps caring
less. These boys were just beginning a gruelling race that would take
them five years to finish, but none thought of the hardships, trials, and
triumphs that would confront them. One of the first obstacles in this
race was the translation of such mysterious hieroglyphics as Dll, A13, T12. We
thought that these were either Greek or Latin symbols, but some "obliging" sopho-
more told us that these meant "Officers' Headquarters," "Time Class," and "The
Armory." As we had no reason to attend such places, we did not go around and
later were very much astonished to find that we were charged with "skipping" three
of our classes and were ordered to time class. When we had passed Math. 11
under Mr. Buckner we were more like upper classmen, for the manly atmosphere
created by Mr. Buckner's presence is enough to make any freshman more like a
man.

After a while, having overcome many obstacles, we passed into the second lap
of our race and rejoiced to know that no more would we be termed freshmen. At
the beginning of our second lap our roster had slightly decreased, as the pace was
too strong for some. This was the year we began to feel our importance and since
the upper classmen refused to recognize it, we turned without mercy on the quak-
ing freshmen. It was about this time that the most of us began to make acquaint-
ances with "the bull ring" and "time class" and for some of us these acquaintances
developed into constant associations. We are not heavy on old languages but if
sophomore means "wise fool" as the faculty says it does then this class exemplified
the term to the nth degree. However, we shed the most of our foolishness, whether
wise or otherwise, and finally found ourselves full fledged intermediates.

When we became intermediates we found that one year of our race was to be
cut off and that we should be at "Old Richmond" onlv four vears instead of five,

m%m

slipping into the junior class over night and without much practice. At this time
our class worked faithfully for the school bonds, although we realized that we
should lienefit therefrom little and that we should have the use of the new building
only one scholastic year. It was for them who came after us that we were thinking.
We shall have the honor of being the first graduating class from the "New Rich-
mond." Some of us were gaining laurels for ourselves in the fields of sport, while
some were joining the literary society and training to become the future divorce
iawyers of the nation. Honors were not lacking in a military way for a few of
our members became commissioned officers, while many became sergeants and
corporals. It was during this year that we began to grasp more eagerly the help-
ing hands of our teachers as somehow it had dawned upon us that the faculty were
more eager to make a man than to break a boy. With this realization on our part
we more easily acceded to their demands and absorbed the fruits of their knowl-
edge.

At this writing we are seniors. We have turned the curve and are on our last
lap with a coveted sheep skin ahead of us as our reward for such untiring efforts
as we have demonstrated throughout our sojourn here. No Golden Fleece was ever
sought for with any more vigor than is our "dip," and no Golden Fleece was ever
prized more than we shall prize it when it is ours.

We hope that it will soon be said of us, "Well done !" And, having thus fin-
ished the course, we shall leave A. R. C. with our best wishes and approach what-
ever is before us with that indomitable spirit inculcated into us during four vears
at "Old Richmond." BILL WALL!

Last Will and Testament

of the
Class of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven.

State of Georgia.
County of Richmond.

We, the class of twenty-seven, of the State and County aforesaid, by reason of great
physical pain, mental anguish, and spiritual travail for four long years of toil, trial, and
trouble : woeful, weak and feeble of body, and brought now in our declining days to
realize that our course in this Highway of Hades is almost run ; yet being in full and free
possession and control of our faculties, .\ea, even of exceedingly sound and disposing mind
and memory ; now, therefore, for the purpose of making known our wishes concerning the
rites to be observed over our remains, on the occasion of our death and burial, and of
providing for a wise, just, and equitable division and disposition of our lands, goods, and
earthly possessions of every kind, for the mitigation in a measure of the demoralization
naturally eonsecptent upon our prol able demise, for the perpetuation on the face of the
earth of this old historic institution, when we no longer haunt it in flesh, for insuring
comfort and competence in their old age to those here dependent on us, who might other-
wise be left destitute and helpless, for the causes of charity and benevolence, and the ex-
pression of appreciation of gratitude to those who have befriended us on our way and
made burdens of our journey easier, and for such purposes as the law may deem neces-
sary and proper, do hereby declare, publish, ordain, and establish this the Last Will and
Testament of us, the said class of 1927. to-wit :

Item 1. We hereby bequeath to our beloved and honored principal. Major George P. Butler, our
thanks and praises for the pleasure and honor of spending our last year in this building, the everlasting
memorial to his good work and faith in his students, and the thought, little as it may seem, that we
feel that the best in us is due to his unlimited patience and helpful advice.

Item 2. To Jinunie Lister Skinner, we leave the hope that when he sets to Heaven lie will find no
combination locks on the prate, or Gabriel will blast forth on his trumpet before be ever gets the gate
open.

Item 3. To "Little Mac," our French professor, we leave one book proving that the English language
contains an a, b, and a c, as the little blue mark on the top of our test papers has given us the im-
pression that he does not know said fact.

Item 4. To "Shorty McDonald," we leave a collection of fly-swatters so that the Board of Educa-
tion will not have to spend so much money in replacing the broken rulers in the Math 42 class.

Item 5. The class takes great pride in presenting to Unk Bill Kennedy a glass ball of the size and
make used by fortune-tellers so that at the end of the day he can look into it and see the faces of the
boys who have been smoking during the day, and thereby save the waste of energy that he loses by
sneaking up and down the halls between periods.

Item <. To the efficiency expert of the athletic committee, Mr. "Empty" Bryson, we leave a study hall
containing twenty-five corners in order that the students will not have to be piled up on top of each
other.

Item 7. To little Oeorgie Scott, we leave the body and strength of a bear so that lie will have
something else about him to harmonize with his daily studyhall tone.

Item 8. To Mr. Sutton, we leave the hope that never again will be have to put up with another
English 42 section.

Item 9. To A. P. Markert, companion of students, we leave a drawing class that will not whistle,
imitate a band, or forget him at dances.

Item in. To Miss Julia Flisch, we leave a red flag to be hung outside her class and thereby save
her the trouble of waving her hand at the lowly freshman.

Item 11. To our "eunnel," A. G. Goodwyn, we leave hoops to be put around the bottom of the
cadet's coats, so that they will have more of the flying effect about them.

Item 12. To J. L. Talley, we leave a copy of that famous book, "How to cover the Physics text
book in three weeks." The said book written by our Physics shark, Aquilla James Dyess.

Item 13. To the "Tech Club," we leave the pleasant memories of last November the 13th, and of
the many coming games between Georgia and Tech.

Realizing that we are approaching the end of our toilsome career at this historic institution, and
that the Junior class will soon take our place in the classroom as well as on the battlefield, we, the
Senior class, feel that our personal belongings and peculiarities should rightfully be left to our successors.
the class of twenty-eight. Upon conditions, however, that they in turn, when their hours of torment draw-
to a close, shall in the same manner mete out their bountiful possessions to the future classes, that today
sit before us a mob of childish school boys. Accordingly

To Charles Goodwin, master of the band, we leave the radio of Wilson, to be used on Wednesdays
so that he can hear Colonel's orders, given as they usually are, from the other side of the campus.

To Edward Rhodes, we leave David Potter's thirst for drink.

To Bill Wilson, we leave sleepy Dawson's pep and vigor.

To Rut Whaley, we leave all our old French books so that he can continue his termly sport of tear-
ing them up after exams.

To Jimmie Gardiner, we leave Buck Lanier's string of adjectives so that he can use them when
he starts to talk about his friends on the faculty.

To Dick Wade, we leave Gehrken's harem.

The Senior class feels that not only the living but the dead should be considered in this instrument,
and so we leave the proper amount for a shave to he turned over to our friend. Bain.

To the student answering the following questions, we give an annual holiday on February 31st:

No. 1. Why is Mr. Scruggs so popular with the co-eds?

No. 2. Where does Junior College get the idea that she owns this building?

No. 3. Why did Mr. Smith have his upper lip shaved off when school opened?

No. 4. Where does George Sibley spend most of his time?

No. 5. Why were all those yellow tickets with the question mark on them given out?

No. (i. Why do all the men professors like William Jones?

No. 7. Why does Mr. Allen always have trouble with his car when he is bringing a certain young
lady home from a dance?

No. 8. How old is Gene Ku hike's cut-down?

No. 9. Where does Robert Smith go every day after lunch?

No. 10. Why has Saul Levy started wearing a clean shirt to school every day?

IN WITNESS WHEREOF. We have hereunto set our hand and seal, this 29th day of May, in the
year of our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-seven.

Signed,

THE SENIOR CLASS.

The Philosophian Literary Society

NE morning immediately after the Christmas holidays an announcement
was made at Chapel urging all A. R. C. boys to meet that afternoon for
the purpose of organizing a literary society. Eager to get into the liter-
ary society work a bunch of us met at the time and place designated. After
a few remarks by the faculty adviser we elected officers and completed
the organization. We began with about thirty-five charter members. A
name was not chosen for the society then; but later we adopted as our name "Phil-
osophian" meaning ''lover of wisdom."

We held our meetings every week except during examinations ; interesting
and instructive programs were given. The programs consisted of debates, declama-
tions, jokes and readings. The Program Committee made an effort to use, at some
time or other, each member of the society ; thus giving all of us an opportunity
to develop ourselves in public speaking, for we feel that this is the chief aim of the
literary society.

In the person of Gilbert Schumacher we discovered a splendid orator one
who we feel is a worthy successor to Joe Mullarky, who won fame last year by win-
ning the Zone Contest in the International Oratorical Contest. Gilbert eliminated
the other orators of our school who came out for the contest this year, and at this
writing has won the District Contest. We are proud of Gilbert and are pulling for
him to make a good showing for the society.

It would not do to close without saying a word of praise for Mr. Hardy, our
faculty adviser. Mr. Hardy has sponsored our literary societies for several years
and a better assistant could not be found. He started us off this year with a bang
and has continued the good work by attending practically every meeting. He has
aided us in preparing our programs, in obtaining our material for debates and, of
more importance, in keeping up the spirit of the society. He also has been largely
responsible for the splendid showing of our orator. No matter how busy he has
always found time to help us. His efforts are largely responsible for the success
of the society.

MILITARY

HE military department is one of the most benefi-
cial branches of our school work. While afford-
ing valuable training in discipline, it gives the ca-
dets a break in the quiet routine of the school day,
and provides fifty minutes of exercise in the open
air. The course is optional for the college stu-
dents, but compulsory for all able members of the student
1 odv of the Academy.

The cadet corps began in 1882 as a single company, led
by Captain J. ( >. Clark. It existed rather precariously until
1888, when it was discontinued for ten years.

In 1898 it was revived by Major George P. Butler, our
President, who soon made of it a very respectable corps. But
in L919, due to the press of his duties as Principal of the
rapidly growing Academy, Major Butler was obliged to re-
linquish the command of the military department to Major
K. C. B. Danforth, Jr., a veteran of the World War.

Major Danforth added seyeral new features, including
"extended order," to the drill, and continued with marked
success the good work of Major Butler. In 1922 Major
Danforth turned over the position of Commandant to Pro-
fessor Charles 1!. Whitney, who had been Major Danforth's
assistant the preceding year.

Colonel Whitney held the position for one year. He was
responsible for a general heightening of the efficiency and
discipline of the cor] is, and for the formation of a regiment
composed of two battalions of three companies each, in place
of the one battalion of four companies.

Upon the resignation of Colonel Whitney, the school was fortunate in securing
the services of Colonel J. T. Mains, an officer in the World War. During his three
years, he kept the corps at a very high state of efficiency, and made several valuable
improvements. The companies were divided into regulation platoons, and a class
m Military Science and Tactics was organized. The latter was especially helpful,
as the theoretical knowledge gained by the officers, when applied on the field, im-
proved the technique of the drill immensely.

For many years it had been the hope of the officials of the school to have a
Junior R. O. T. C. unit established here. Last year, mainly because of the untir-
ing efforts of President Butler and Colonel Mains, the dream was made real, and
the unit was established.

Colonel
A. G. Goodwyn

The Corps was exceedingly fortunate in obtaining at the very beginning of its
history a commandant who is well versed in military matters, and experienced in
conducting R. O. T. C.'s Major A. G. Goodwyn, U. S. A. retired. Major Good-
wyn was for five years head of the R. O. T. C. unit at Citadel and developed
it into one of the best units in this area. He has an efficient assistant in Sergeant
Leipold, who is also experienced in R. O. T. C. work.

The two are devoting their entire time to the work, and
are rapidly building the best corps in the history of the
school and if the present rate of progress is maintained, it
bids fair to be the best in the State. Several essential im-
provements, not possible under the old regime, are now in
force. One is that every cadet rated above a first-year high
school student is required to take the course in Military Sci-
ence and Tactics, and consequently learns exactly what he
is to do on the drill field. Another improvement is that the
companies drill at different times, with one or both the in-
structors supervising; this insures expert training for each
group.

At stated intervals there are prize drills between the best
platoons of each company. This practice keeps the interest
and enthusiasm of the men at a high pitch at all times. In
addition, at the end of the year, two other prize drills are
held, one being the individual prize drill with six men, chosen
from each company, participating. The prize for it is the
gold Levy Medal to be worn (by the winner) for one year.
Last year Cadet George Waddy was the winner. The other
prize drill is between the companies, each going through cer-
tain evolutions in close and extended order drill within a
given time.

The award is the Preparedness Cup, upon which the name
of the winning company is engraved. Company F, com-
manded by Capt. Wilbert Emigh, won this honor last year.

The band, from a small beginning in 1915, has grown un-
til now it has thirty pieces in its organization. Under the lead-
ership of Mr. Louis Sayre it has become the pride of the
school and of the city. It takes an important part along with
the Academy regiment, in all the major parades of the com-
munity. The band always shows its good spirit by being
willing to aid in any special cause whenever called upon.

COACH JULES CARSON

"Coach" needs no introduction. As the splendid coach and
friend of five Academy teams his name is almost immortal to sup-
porters of old Richmond, and, more recently, to supporters of
Junior College. His su:cess in building championship teams has
been marvelous. And always, whether we won or lost, he has im-
bued us with the highest standards of sportsmanship.

It is with keen regret that we learn he is to go to Clemson next
year, for it will indeed be a great loss. However, we all realize
that ability deserves promotion, and we wish him the best of suc-
cess. Good luck to vou, Coach, in your future work.

CAPTAIN GARVIN DANIELS

"Grandpa" came to the Academy in Septem-
ber, 1 !)'.'.">, unheralded and unsung, but he quick-
ly made the team and became a star. His g 1

work throughout his first year earned for him
the Captainship of the combined Junior College
and Academy team. He proved an ideal Captain,
keeping the team in the best of spirits and lead-
ing them through a very successful season. It's
too bad that he is leaving this year we all know
that we are losing a valuable man.

CAPTAIN-ELECT "DUTCH" LUCKY
"Dutch" was one of the mainstays of the line
all season ; and although a linesman is not expect-
ed to make touchdowns, Lucky's seventy-yard run
in the Carlyle game was a feature long to be re-
membered by those who saw it. His good work
and loyal spirit all during the season earned for
him the Captainship of the 1928 Musketeers.

A Review of the Football Season

HE schedule last fall was one of the hardest ever encountered by a Richmond
team but that meant nothing to "the children of old Richmond,"' for they went
into it with heart and soul and put up their best, whether facing a strong team
or a weak one.

And also the good old "Richmond Spirit" was in the foreground in every
game. In no game this season was there any show of poor spirit by the players
or the student body regarding any decision rendered on the field.

Practice was started about the usual time and when the first game was
played the whole squad was in first class condition. The "Specials" were very
faithful to the squad, there being a large crowd that remained out throughout the entire
season. The Specials were the champions of the Senior Community Service League show-
ing real football form and good sportsmanship.

The first set-to of the season was against the Erskine "Rats" who came from the
place where "Rastus" Hood used to hang out. Those "Tarheels" sure could play football
and had a large team but that meant nothing to our boys, for the final score showed
that while Erskine had made 7 points Richmond had piled up a score of 27. This was
starting off tine and everybody could see that Richmond had a winning team.

The second game of the season was against G. M. C. at Milledgeville. This is the
city where the "light-headed citizens" of the state hang out, but the team at G. M. C. was

not affected in any such way as that for the Richmond boys had a real fight mi their
hands from the tirst whistle to the lasl one.

These "Milledgeville-ans" started off by scoring the tirst touchdown and it seemed
that they meant to keep ns from crossing their goal line at all ; but when eleven Richmond
Cadets gel together like our hoys did something is hound to happen, and so. when the
curtain fell on the field of combat, the score read. (J. II. ('. ti. Richmond 13.

The next game on the schedule was against Piedmont College (.from somewhere in
Georgia). This same was a "scream" for the Specials could probably have defeated the
Piedmont hoys as they played that day. This was the team where the coach played quar-
ter and he was a comedy by himself. However, they fought hard until the last minute or
the score might have been larger than it was. It ended 57 to in Richmond's favor.

The Oglethorpe "Rats" next came to see us. ami when that team came on the field
several id' the 'sporting element of this community" began placing money on the "Rats."
When the game started it looked like fleas charging elephants. But you remember that
there is an old saying that says "The bigger they are the harder they fall." Well, that
applied in this case, and when those "big hoys" pulled off the field the old Richmond boys
went to the showers glorying in the fact that they had defeated the Oglethorpe "Rats" to
the t une of 120 to C.

Benedictine College of Savannah then sent a team up here to try to take away some
of Richmond's laurels: and it was supposed that if we won, it would he by a hair. But
wdien those lads came out and began playing, the crowds were treated to a real surprise-
for our hoys completely outplayed the Benedictine team, defeating them to tne score of
:yj. to (i.

The next game was about the same as the Piedmont game. It was against the Ntates-
horo A. & M. team which was supposed to have a strong crowd. They were supposed to

Fortson

Sheridan

Cobb

have defeated some strong team that we had played, but it they did they must have played
against that team's water-boy brigade, for when the game ended we had trampled them
down to a 54 to score.

Richmond then met the Clemson Reserves and this was a real football game. The
Clemson boys had bad much more experience than our boys and also outweighed our
team: but you must remember that although Goliath was much larger than David and
had more experience than he had, he was defeated. However there were no touchdowns
scored in this game. This was kind of game in which Ed. Mul stars, for it was on ac-
count of his trusty and dependable right toe that two field goals were made, making the
final score 6 to 0. Ed. gets a lot of credit for his part in this game, but a large share of
credit also goes to the good old linesmen and the other backfleld members.

Let it here be added that we also played Savannah Hi in Savannah. Our team was
supported by a small crowd from home and that helped a lot* for it is easier to fight some-
body in his own yard if you have somebody from your own yard there to yell for you.

This was one of the hardest games of the season and was won by us in the last
minute or two of play. Savannah had scored a safety on us and those two points were
the only ones of the game until our boys began to make the fur fly.

Our boys began to get down to business and in the closing minutes of play brought
the ball some sixty or seventy yards to their opponent's goal where Tommy Bruce, our
reliable old full back, dived over the line for the first touchdown and the winning points.

It was due to a beautiful run made by Jimmie Mason that the ball was brought with-
in scoring distance, of Savannah's goal.

The next and last game on our schedule was the annual "Turkey Day" game against
Riverside, our ancient rival for football honors. This game was a "thriller" from the
start to the finish and was as full of thrills as all of the freak rides at Johnny J. Jones

Cook

Gardiner

Weathersbee

put together. The final score almost broke everybody's heart, for Riverside defeated
Richmond <i to but, it seemed that every break was against our boys; and Riverside's
touchdown was the result of one of those breaks. However, we are not complaining, for
they beat us fair and square, and our boys did their best. But Riverside surely knew
that they had been in a football game when it was over.

Although Riverside had defeated us. it was our only one so far. so some of the people
about town began tishing for a game with Carlisle of Bamberg, S. ('.. who had not been
defeated through the season. This game was finally arranged and was played here. It
seemed that our boys lacked their old punch in this game. It might have been due to the
hard schedule that they had gone through, but anyway Carlisle outplayed us and defeated
us to the score of 27 to 13.

The most thrilling part of this game for us was when "Dutch" Luckey grabbed a
fumbled ball oft' the back of a Carlisle player and ran about SO yards for a touchdown.
Lokey escorted him all the way, keeping rivals oft' of him. One player tried to "fly" at
Luckey near the goal line but Lokey was there to clip him.

The season was a successful one anil would have been more successful had it not been
for our two defeats : but it is impossible to win every time, and as it is sometimes said,
"It takes a better team to lose than it does to win."

A lot of credit is due to Coach Jules Carson who was responsible for such a good
team. Coach Carson is known for his championship teams, and he had a high "batting"
average with such teams during the five years he has been here.

The boys who played on the team are to lie congratulated for their loyalty to the
school and to the team, and also for their good sportsmanship on and off the field. The
team has carved a niche in Richmond's Football Hall of Fame and will be remembered for
many years by us who have witnessed the team's trials and triumphs.

BASKETBALL

Coach J. Rucker Newberry
"Chief" came to us like sunshine out of a cloudy
sky. We had started the season without a coach
and things looked pretty dull. "Chief" was just
going to try coaching us for a week, but when
he found out that we liked his methods and wanted
to work together he decided to continue his work.
As a result the team had a very successful season
and a larger number of men have become inter-
ested in basketball. The team is exceedingly grate-
ful to Mr. Newberry, not only for his excellent
coaching, but we feel that we have found in him
a sincere friend and comrade.

Captain Jimmy Mason

When "Grandpa" Daniels, Captain of the Bas-
ketball Team, left school in February, Basketball
season was not yet over. In picking a new cap-
tain we have found in Jimmy Mason every quali-
ty of an excellent player and a capable leader.
This was Jimmie's second year on the Varsity
squad and we all hope that he will be back again
next Year.

Sheridan Cook Wagnon Heffernan Mason

A Review of the Basketball Season

N MANY ways the basketball season of the Academy can be considered
tn be one of the best in the history of the school. But to start off the
season, the Academy was unfortunate in not having the services of a
coach; and so for the first and most crucial part of the season, the mem-
bers of the squad were without the leadership of a man capable of keep-
ing the members busy or showing them the fundamentals and essentials.
Nevertheless, under Captain Daniels the team had a good number of men out
to start the season; he kept them busy most every day and did his best to drill a
system of play into the squad. After losing a hard-fought game to the Medical
College without the services of a coach, it was learned that Scout Executive J.
Rucker Xewbery had had a little experience as a coach and several friends of the
Academy went after him. So one day through the efforts of the president of the
Junior College, Air. Xewbery came out and told the members that he would do
what he could to help the boys learn to play basketball. Sunn after be took charge,

m

the team made a trip to Savannah and were swamped by both Benedictine College
and Savannah High. But a few weeks later, after the coach and the boys had work-
ed out a system of play, and the team-work showed a firm grasp of the fundamen-
tals, Benedictine was beaten on the Academy's own floor by the score of 26 to 11.
and Savannah High was held to a very close score.

During the season the Academy played in the city league sponsored by the
Y. M. C. A., and if the Academy had had the services of a coach it would have
been tied with the Lombard team for the championship but as it was we were
nosed out by losing the game with the Medical College.

In the Annual Trade Distri-t Conference of basketball teams from Georgia
and South Carolina the Academy team was the runner up. The team had to beat
s. very hard team, the Midville High School, in the morning and that night had to
meet another hard team in the finals. The final game was lost after a desperate
fight. It might be said, without offering any "alibis," that if the Academy could
have used the team that was used during the regular season it could have won
the Trade Tournament. The Tournament rules made it impossible for the Acade-
my to play three of the regulars and of course this handicapped the team in having
to play three new men in responsible games.

The team when the games are counted up shows a large percentage of the
games won with the team playing as a whole. And even after the loss of the Cap-
tain, the pivot man during the middle of the season, the team continued to play
winning ball. There were no ''stars," and it would be unfair to the others to men-
tion any player as having played better than the rest.

The members of the basketball team kept in training, practiced hard and de-
veloped the best spirit that any basketball team put out by the Academy has shown
for some years. The team almost made the season a financial success, and with the
start that has been made this season, the next season of basketball should see the
Academy develop not only a winning team but a team backed by the entire com-
munity and assured of financial success.

It was not thought that the year would be a success, as far as games won
would go, for the first season under Coach Newberry ; and it was a very pleasant
surprise to have the team develop into a winner the first year under a new system
of play. Much time was spent in drilling the boys in pivoting, following up, pass-
ing, and in other ways learning the game so that next year more time could be
spent in developing a scoring machine.

The year past was a success from any angle it could be studied. What more
could any team do than arouse favorable comment by the fine sportsmanship shown
by the team, and create the school spirit that this team has built up? H. J. H.

COACH TIM MERMAN

This is the second year that Coach Timmerman
has had charge of the Baseball Team, and he is
credited with developing quite a bit of our present
talent. He' has done more than merely stimulate
our interest in baseball. We hope he will continue
as coach for many years, and with the constant
improvement of our teams, that is bound to occur.
Under his guidance we will probably be abls
some dav to beat even the Parris Island Marines.

CAPTAIN TOM BRUCE

Tom is a dependable man at almost any posi-
tion in the line-up. He has been shifted from
place to place with equal ease. Last year he
played first base, and rarely did a ball get past
him. This year he was shifted to pitch, and has
filled the position to perfection, besides being a
jam-up player generally. He made a fine Captain
and aided greatly in keeping up the spirit of the
team.

The Baseball Season of 1927

ITH twenty men out for the team this year and many of the old letter men
back the season started off with a rush. After the first three weeks of
practice the squad dwindled down to about two teams. We had our same
coach back with us, Mr. Timmerman, and he whipped a squad into shape
at once. For our captain we had our own Tom Bruce who has made his
letter three years. The first game was with Washington High in Wash-
ington. We journeyed up to that city and Captain Bruce did his stuff on the mound
and made eighteen of the boys retire via the strike-out way. As he was doing this,
Garrett and Bagby had slapped out several hits and the team scored eight runs.
The final score ended 8 to 4 in our favor. The next week we played Washington
a return game in our own lot and repeated the performance by giving them the short
end of the score. Morris pitched this game and the final score was 5 to 4.

Stevenson Cliatt Wiggins Bairij, G.

Next on the list was our old rival, the Savannah "Hoy" School. Henderson
pitched great hall and we succeeded in heating them by the score of 3 to 2. This
was a good tight game, a pitchers' battle from start to finish. In the end. however.
Henderson proved the better of the two. The winning run was scored by Ed Shep-
herd when Doc Beattie laid down a nerfect bunt.

After the Savannah game we traveled up to G. M. C. on Thursday and suffer-
ed our first defeat at the hands of the strong G. M. C. nine. The pitchers for both
sides did some good work. Near the last however they nosed ahead and the final
score was 8 to ? in their favor. For the A. R. C., Cook, Shepherd. Bruce and Hen-
derson each got several bingles apiece. Henderson parked one over the fence for
the first homer of the season.

The day after the game with G. M. C. we took on Thomson in Thomson and
again added another victory to our list of wins. Captain Bruce did the twirling
and pitched good ball, allowing only a few scattered hits. In this game Garrett,
at third, handled several hard chances in fine style.

Pardue Leaphart Sheppard Garrett

Following the Thomson game the team went down to Allendale to play Allen-
dale High. "Bo" Morris pitched this game and held the Allendale boys to a few
scattered hits, besides keeping them scoreless for nine innings. The final score was
to 0. At the bat Cook and Bruce were the mainstays for the A. R. C. Each of
these boys got three out of four tries at the bat.

We returned home to try the strong G. M. C. team again. Bruce started this
game off and pitched good ball until the eighth ining. In this inning he weakened
and was replaced by Henderson, who held the G. M. C. boys in check. The A. R.
C, however, was not able to find the G. M. C. pitcher, and G. M. C. carried the ba-
con home to the tune of 3 to 2.

Having just been defeated by G. M. C. we took on the Parris Island Marines
for a two-game series in Parris Island. The soldier boys were too good for us.
They played a brand of ball that would have been a credit to the Sally League.

game they took 7 to 2. In both of these games Garrett, Cook and Doc. Beattie did
some good work with the willow. The fielding of Baird was also a feature in the
first game and in the last Baird also increased his hatting average by cracking
several on the nose for extra bases.

The last game on the schedule was with Carlisle. Henderson started this game
and at first it looked like a victor}' for us. as we scored 3 runs in the first three in-
nings. After this Carlisle woke up and scored ."> runs in three innings. The score
ended this way. In the eighth inning Bruce took the mound and retired six of the
Carlisle men by the strike out route. For the A. R. C, Cook. Bagby, Garrett, and
Wiggins each collected three bingles apiece. The fielding of Shepherd and Baird
was A-l work.

This ended the season of l!l"2T. with a total of ten games ; five won and five lost.

COACH COKDLE

Coach Cordle came to Richmond in 1916 from
Trinity College. There he was a star distance run-
ner and a member of the track team for two years.
Through his experience as a trackman, he has
learned every phase of the track game. This
knowledge, and his ability to impart it, has made
him a master moulder of track teams and track
men. Mr. Cordle turned out a team in 1924 which
broke five previous A. R. C. track records. His
relay teams, and his sprinters as well, have been
consistant winners ever since he has been coach.
Looking over Mr.- Cordle's teams of the past, we
need not fear for Richmond's standing on the
cinder path in the future.

CAPTAIN BOB SMITH

Bob is completing his second year as a member
of the Richmond track team, and probably his
last year as a student at A. R. C. Bob has cer-
tainly lived up to his position as Captain, and has
not only been a constant winner of points in meets,
but has also been an inspiration and example to
his fellow trackmen. Bob's best race is the 440
yard dash. He also successfully puts the shot,
is a good broad jumper and member of the crack
relay team. If Bob leaves us this year, our loss
will be a great gain to any college which he at-
tends.

Review of Track Season

THE STAPLETON MEET

OR the initial meet of the track season, the Richmond track team met the
Stapleton team in Stapleton, on April 8th. The A. R. C. tracksters com-
pletely outclassed their opponents in almost every event, the shot put and
the discus being the only events in which Stapleton won first place. The
score was 58 to 19. Captain Smith was high point man for Richmond,
with 13 points. As Captain, Boh certainly set a fast pace for the rest
of the team to follow. The events and winners were :

100-yd. dash, Jack Jackson 1st, Judson Bentley 2nd. Time, 10:3 seconds.
220-yd. clash. Jack Jackson 1st. Judson Bentley 2nd. Time, 25 seconds.

On the same date as the Stapleton meet, a combined A. R. C. and J. C. A.
relay team, composed of Francis Schwitzerlet, Charlie Prickett, Jimmy Mason and
Jeff Curry, went to Atlanta to take part in the annual Tech Relays. However, due
to the necessary splitting up of the sprinters, caused by having two track events on
the same date, Richmond did not repeat the triumph of our previous relay teams.

THE WRENS MEET

On April 13th, the Richmond track team defeated the Wrens High School
team in Wrens, by the score of 48 to 21. Richmond's only weak points were in the

Review of Tennis Season

Tennis started off with a bang this year. There were forty-four entries in the
Annual Elimination Tournament. Cobb, Mulherin, Chew, Sheridan, Heffernan,
Hendee, Goodwin and Griffin distinguished themselves by playing through the
fourth round. Cobb, Chew, Heffernan and Griffin who came up to the next round
were eligible for the Tennis Team. Cobb succeeded in winning the tournament
again. this year by defeating Griffin in the finals.

Thus far we have had no meets with other schools since the only support given
is that of the students themselves. We are all looking forward to next year when
we will have several courts built here on the campus. The Athletic Association will
probably recognize Tennis then to the extent of arranging a schedule of games.

Richmond has a store of material for tennis teams and it is evident that with
proper support a team could be developed which would establish for Richmond a
record in this field of sport. H. J. H.

The Boys' Student Council

HE Student Council was organized in January
of this year, through the efforts of the Hi-Y
Club and the faculty. This is the first move
of any kind towards student government at
Richmond and Junior College. This council
is composed of eighteen members, two elected
representatives from each class, and the presidents of
each class as ex-officio members.

The President and Vice-President who are the two
highest ranking officers of the Council, are students
in the high school. The Junior College is represented
by the secretary of the Council.

The purpose of the Council is to act as a guiding hand
to the students in taking the initiative in any movement
which is for the good of the school and the entire stu-
dent body, to correct our own errors and to help
others correct theirs, to promote a better school spirit
among the students of both institutions, and finally,
to instill into the hearts of every student a love for old
Richmond and Junior College.

The Hi- Y Club

HE Hi-Y Club is an organization composed of about twenty leaders in all
forms of school activities who are trying their best to live up to the four
fundamental ideals of the club: clean speech. Christian living, honest
scholarship, and fair scholastic attainment. It is the purpose of the club
to discuss freely school affairs and student problems. The programs are
prepared with the view toward being profitable to the members and bene-
ficial to the student body as a whole.

Last spring, the Hi-Y Club and the Y. M. C. A. conducted a "Vocational
Guidance" campaign, which helped seventy or eighty boys "find themselves" and
which created much interest among the business men in the future citizens of Au-
gusta.

Another feature was introduced last spring by the club, and repeated this year
a banquet for the members of the basketball team. Both years the affair was a
great success and it is hoped that it will be continued in the future.

Owing to the incompleteness of our new Academy building, the school year
began quite late. For this reason it was nearly December before the Hi-Y was able
to have its meetings. Shortly after the club was reorganized this year, the president
appointed a committee to revise the constitution. Because of the establishment of
the Junior College and because there were changes which were unavoidable, this
step was necessary.

The Club conducted this year a "Have-You-Thought" campaign, which helped
increase the honor and respect of the students for the building and property of
their new school.

There has been a decided development within the club this past year and it is
sincerely hoped that the club will each year become more and more efficient. With
the better organization and the revived spirit which the new school brings with it. it
is felt that the success of the future work of the Hi-Y Club is assured.

A n Historical Sketch

of

The Academy of Richmond County

and

The Junior College of A ugusta

HE Academy of Richmond County is the oldest incorporated institution of learn-
ing in Georgia, and with two exceptions in Virginia the oldest in the South-
ern states. The College of Charleston, nextin order of time, is less venerable
by several years. Both were founded under the same impulse) and to meet the
same social need: the education of the youth of the State at home. The
stale legislature, therefore, established the Academy en July Si, 1783, granting
for iis support tracts of land at Augusta formerly owned by the King of Eng-
land. No school el' learning lias been more intimately connected with all the interest of
the community in which it has been established than the Academy. By its Charter, the
Trustees were ex-officio commissioners of the town: their general supervision of the
town continued until the incorporation of the City in 17!)8.

It was necessary, at first, to sell lots ami to raise money otherwise before the school
could be operated. After considerable delay, on March 25, 1785, "the Hoard having eon-
suited upon the employment of a Master for the Academy ami Mr. Wm. Rodgers, late of
the State of Maryland, having been well recommended, appointed him Master at a salary
of 201) and gave him the use of a building to be erected. Children learning letters and
reading, will be charged $4.00; those learning the principles of English grammar and ci-
phering, $5.00; and those learning the Latin and Greek languages, or any branch of the
mathematics, $10.00 per quarter." The school established was for boys and girls, and re-
mained so for a long period of time, the exact date not being known when it became a
school for boys only.

From 1780 to 1786, while Savannah (The seat of State government) was occupied by
the enemy, Augusta was declared the temporary Capital of the State, and there being no
public buildings in Augusta suitable for the purpose, those of the Academy were used as
the State House, and the State and Federal Courts were held there. The Academy then
occupied its old site on Bay Street, between Elbert and Lincoln Streets. There, in 1791,
President Washington attended the commencement exercises of the Academy and the ball
given in his honor by the citizens. The Hoard of Trustees has most faithfully ami contin-
uously carried forward the trust confided to it to establish "a seminary of learning for
the education of our youth."

The courses of study included, besides the Latin, Greek. French. German and English
languages, a thorough mathematical course from arithmetic to calculus, a popular course
in natural philosophy, and courses in theoretical and analytical chemistry, astronomy,
geology, and in physiology and hygiene.

The building <m Telfair Street was erected in 1802 at a cost of some $20,000. The
Academy remained in successful operation till 1864, when it was (-(inverted into a hospital
by the Confederate government. For a few years after the close of the war it was used
by the United States troops as a barracks, btit on January 1. 1808, was reopened and has
been in successful and continuous operation since that date.

For the past decade, the growth of the Academy has been phenomenal. The old build-
ing on Telfair Street became overcrowded and no longer adequate to meet the growing
demands made upon the Academy, both by the numbers seeking instruction, and the scope
and variety of those courses which it seemed best to incorporate in the curriculum of
such an institution.

Temporary relief was offered by the acquisition of adjacent buildings which had been
used by the Medical Department of the University of Georgia, and which reverted to the
Academy when the Medical College moved to its present quarters, in 1913. These build-
ings were transformed into laboratories, classrooms, and a dormitory for out-of-town pu-
pils.

In spite of this additional space, there was still an insistent demand for increased
accommodations in the rapidly growing school. A new idea had developed in educational
circles: the Junior College, in which young men and women might receive their first
two years of college training.

The Junior College idea found enthusiastic supporters in Major George P. Butler.
Principal of the Academy, and in Lawton B. Evans, the Superintendent of Schools of
Richmond County. The urgent needs of the Academy, together with the idea of a Junior
College in Augusta, were presented to the people of Richmond County with such forceful
argument and such enthusiasm, as to result in the passage of a bond issue in 1025 of
$300,000 for the erection of a new building for the Academy and for the housing of the
Junior College on the tract of ground where the institution now stands. The building
was occupied in October of 1926 and the Academy and Junior College have both func-
tioned there with great success since that date.

For the present year 654 boys enrolled in the four classes of the Academy and 163
boys and girls took Junior College work. Thus we have a close and harmonious union
between the Academy of Richmond County, the oldest educational institution in point of
continuous service in the Southern States, and the Junior College of Augusta, the young-
est institution of its kind in the Union. These two institutions are monuments to the
progressive educational ideals of Augusta.

"The Teachers'

I With apologies to Kipling)

I've taken my fun where I've found it.
I've studied and loafed in my tune,
I've had my pickiri of teachers.
And some of the lot were prime.

One was a Physics Professor;
In his classes I studied with vim,
Put to my dismay, I found i-t won't pay.
And I learned about Physics from him !

One was a model of fashion,

His hair never needed a trim ;

His socks and his ties always matched his blue eyes.

And I learned about dressing from him!

One was a fair lady teacher;

Her History I didn't fall 'fer'

Put her glances so sweet brought the men to her feet

So / learned how to charm 'em from her!

One was a chemistry teacher;

My chances for passing were slim

For though atoms are small, they sure made me fall.

And I learned about flunking from him I

One was a fiery professor

What he knew about Math was a sin;

But his knowledge of life didn't end with school strife

And I learned about ah. well from him.

One was a jolly good milk man.

My knowledge of his course was dim;

I can see him right now telling us 'bout the cow;

And 1 learned how to talk well from him!

Pie taken my fun where I've found it;

They have made me a wreck as you see;

So be warned by my lot ( which I know you will not )

And learn 'bout the teachers from me.

And the Villian Still Pursued Her

NE day "Allen Eubanks," a "Hardy" young man, hupped in his "Chandler"
to "Dash-er"-way with Kitty "Kennedy" who had promised to elope with
him. On the way there, he went down "Ellis" St. to "McDonald's" to get
some "Hains" Baked Beans, but finding none, he decided to go to the A.
and P. "Mark(h)ert." As he came out to his car he shouted: " 'Great
'Scott'! This 'Car's-on' a strike! There's a 'Leake' in the radiator."
He raised up the "Hood" and beckoning to a country "Smith " whom he saw pass-
ing, he "Begue"-d for a rope. "I haven't one," was the answer. ' Well, a 'Cord-le'
do. Have you that?" " "Sutton'-lv, sir." After this damage had been repaired, he
arrived at Kitty's home without further mishap. The "Butler" showed him into
the living-room and said: " 'Eu-bank's' busted, sir. Here's a paper. You can
'Read' the details." At this point Kitty entered in a charming dress of "Skin-
ner's" satin and said coldly: "I can never marry a poor man. My needs wouldn't
'Talley' with his Lank account.' "You're 'Wright,' said her father from the door
'nay, 'Mitchell' 'Timmerman' is a better man anyway." Just then "Mitchell" him-
self entered. Coyly Kitty caught his arm. "It's not always that the 'Good-wyn',"
said "Allen," as he pressed the pistol to "Mitch's" temples and pulled the trigger.
