VOLUME II

THE SENIOR CLASS OF

THE FOURTH DISTRICT A. & M. SCHOOL

CARROLLTON, GA.

Foreword

This is the foreword, and the Portal,
To the rehn of our endeavor,
Where we've planted our devotion
For the school we'll cherish ever.

Our book, inferior to its prompters.
Every thought and gibe combines,
But those things beyond expression
One must seek between the lines.

Dedication

To fondest memories, which
Fainter and sweeter each year,
Will live to l)righten
The days of our future,
We dedicate this annual.

"And when the stream
Which overflowed the soul was passed away,
A consciousness remained that it had left,
Deposited upon the silent shore
Of memorv, images and precious thoughts
That shall not die, and cannot he destroyed."

Our Faculty

A farewell to our faculty so dear
Those true friends whose interest, love and cheer
Have led up patiently thru four long years,
Until the shining portals we have neared.

Upholding ideals noble and true
Teaching by precept and example too
The art of making of life a song
As on the highway we' pass along.

So today our hearts in anthem raise
To our faculty we give our love and praise.
The golden memories that are our portion
We realize are the fruits of their devotion.

ex euent tacilities. The schoool easily accommodates sixty girls and sixty bovs
making a total of one hundred and twenty pupils. The plant is well equipped
and has a valuation of two hundred thousand dollars.

nuously for thirteen years, I. S. Ingram, the present Principal, and Airs. Ingim

The Class of ig2g: A Four Part Scenario

The class of 1929 has just finished producing, with a fine cast consisting of
all our members, the most thrilling and most vivid drama they have so far known.
It was produced in four parts. From the beginning of the first part up to the
end of the fourth it was truly dramatic and fortunately for us, the production
has_ terminated in a happy ending. As no motion pictures were taken of the
various scenes, 1 will try to give you, as vi^idly as I can, the continuitv of the
scenario, filling in here and there such details as may add to your enjoyment
of the "high sports'" of the history.

The cast assembled one September morning in 1925. We were taking the
part of Freshmen in that scene, and I must confess we were rather "green
actors." However after adjusting ouselves to the new work, we began to "learn
our lines pretty well and act our parts well enough to satisfy our stage director
Mr. Ingram. \.Ve seemed to be the sport of the'" upper classmen as they called
us "Freshies." We longed for the time to come when we too could" initiate
freshmen, and more than ever when most of the class got stuck for chewing
gum. After the Christmas holidays we found our work harder than ever as
it was absolutely essential in order to lay the ground work for the scene that
was to follow. We were almost breathless, I can tell you, when the time came
for intermission in May.

In September, 1926, we assembled again, readv to enact the Sophomore
scene with new members added to our cast. By that'time the Faculty no longer
terrified us, for we had come to learn that although stern of visage'^ they were
kind and warm of heart we found them to be sheep in wolf's clothing, 'if you
get what we mean: The -Sophomore scene we found to he pretty hard. The
fines we had used in the previous scenes wouldn't do at all. Fvery one' of us
had to learn new parts and master new specialities.

Happily, the Sophomore scene also had a Christmis and quarterly holiday
selves full fledged members of A. & M. High School. We enjoyed the' Societies
needed the many new ones that entered to help play our parts. We were seasoned
and Socials on Saturday night. And almost before we knew it May had come
once more and the happy Sophomore scene was to end.

The state director told us we might report again in September for the third
or Junior scene, and this we did with a still larger cast of characters for we
needed the many new ones that entered to help play'ourt parts. We were seasoned
players now with two years experience as well as a jollv group of Juniors. Our
text books from which we were to learn our parts we're much harder now and
we were expected to be able by this time to work out some of our problems aiifl
we were fast developing the ability to think for ourselves. We enjoyed picture
show parties such as The Covered Wagon, Old Iron Sides, and others'. On April
26, 1927 the Juniors entertained the Seniors with a picnic at Hayes Mill. Never
did a cast of characters work harder to make their production a success ' There
were several girls who couldn't stick with us so thev married. They' thought
they would like matrimony best, but the boys were faithful and remained with
the cast. May found us still in a whirl of work and eager for the respite
of intermission.

<^* THE AGGIES, NINETEEN TWENTY^NINE

It was with some determination that we approached the final or Senior
scene in September, 1928 with a larger cast of members than ever. There were
sixty nine (69) Seniors enrolled. Upon our work in this scene would depend
the achievement of the much to-be-desired happy ending. Our text books were
much more difficult than anv thing we had so far experienced. We buckled down
to the task and soon had the sce.ie going along smoothly. We smded at tmies
when we thought how utterly impossible this would have l)een for use though years
before when we tabkled the Freshman scene. We now realized how those three years
had developed our abilities and prepared us to handle this big, final, Senior year
We learned that when two lines intersect the vertical angles are equal, and
that the League of Nations caused the World War. The Christmas interval this
time seemed to pass more quickly than ever before. Our studies were mi^xed
with enjoyment such as, picture show parties, weiner roasts, Georgia Day Ban-
quet, Alumni Eanqeut, The Operetta, Bits of Blarney and the Senior play.
Oh! Kay will be remembered as great successes of our Senior year. The Junior-
Senior party will ever bring happy memories of deal old A. & M. The com-
mencement address by Mr. Roosevelt, governor of New York will be one of our
most educational enjovments. Our class has climbed to its greatest and our
members have carried off honors in Athletics, Declamation, Recitation, Music and
other Literary liranches.

But we would not have been able to accomplish these things without the
help of our facultv. All of our teachers have labored so faithfully for us and
we love them and appreciate what they have done for us. The grand final
of the whole four scene, graduation is here. That glorious ending is assured
now and there remains onlv the commencement scene itself and that will soon
transpire. So the Cenario ends. A happy ending for a happy jolly group, the
class of 1929.

The Planetary Telescope of ig2g

Instead of each member of my family giving me an individual present on
my birthday in 1939, all of my relatives pooled the money they would otherwise
ha've spent for such gifts and bought me a beautiful, steam-line, single seater
biplane and one of the new planetarv telescopes. To say that I was delighted
would put it far too mildly indeed. I had been wishing and longing for these
two things despairingly, with absolutely no hope of ever getting either just
as back in 1929 the" young people of those days wished for automobiles of
their own.

Even for 1939 the telescope was a marvelous invention. With it you could
plainly see the weather conditions on all the nearby planets, and by fitting 0:1
the end of the telescope a special localizing device, you could see any part of
any planet in detail including the people, the landscape, the buildings and even
the interior of buildings if desired, for the device had x-ray powers at long
distance, although not at close range. The telescope had been developed to meet
the demand of the so-called holiday fliei's, that is, people who spent their holidav.
by going on sight-seeing trips to other planets. After these pleasure seekers,
upon their arrival at the selected spot on Mars or \'enus or Sattirn, would find
weather and other local conditions unfavorable, and so their excursion would be
spoiled. They wanted some means of ascertaining conditions in advance an 1
the planetary telescope, with its localizing attachment, was the answer.

I decided to try out my handsome new biplane on a little birthday trip to
Mars. Adjusting my telescope and focusing it on Mars, I picked out a lovely
spot alongside the banks of one of the Martian canals : It would, I felt, be an
ic:eal place to spend a ciuiet afternoon. With the aid of the instructions given
in the book which came with the plane, I set the biplane's directional indicator
so that the plane would land at the exact spot I wanted to reach on Mars. This
done, I sat myself in the plane and turned on the atomic energizer and away
we flew. 1 know it seems like bragging, but, truthfully, that lovely little plane
was the smoothest riding air vehicle in which I have ever ridden none of that
bumpy, rock-the-boat sensation you so often get in these cheap, poorly-designe 1
planes. I took along my new planetary telescope and had a most enjoyable time
during the ride, looking at interesting scenes on the various planets ; it reminde^l
me of my childhood days, when we used to watch the scenery from the windows
of- railroad trains ! My stars, if a train made sixty miles an hour people calle;!
it a flyer: I'd be afraid of being arrested for ol)Structing air trafific if 1 flew mv
plane at such snail's pace as that !

My biplane made its splendid performance perfect by landing on Mars a"
the exact spot for which I had set the directional indicators before taking ofr
from the earth I don't think there was so much as a foot variation. I go;
out and sat down beside the Martian canal in the shade of some attractive but odd
looking ti^ees. At least, they resembled ti"ees, although they were not vegetation,
but som.e curious formation like coral. Picking up my planetary telescope. I began
to amuse myself by looking back at the earth. The Western Hemisphere war.
"'n-ned my way, and the localizing device on the telescope picked up a scene in
hirazil. It was a cofifee plantation, and despite the tropical climate, the work
seemed to be going forward with noteworthy hustle and energy. Rather unsual,
1 thought, and wondered what the exi^lanation was. Even as I ruminated I

=^** THE AGGIES, NINETEEN TWENTY^NINE **#

saw a tanned -jnergetic looking man, evidently the owner of the plantation, step
briskly out ol one of the buildings. I focused the localizer on his face and
I began to focus the telescope's localizer on every possible spot you could think of
high school days ! No wonder things were hustling under his supervision.

Why not pick up all the old crowd of the class of 1929, I thought. And so
I began to focus the telescope's loclizer on every possible spot you could think of
in the Western Hemisphere. New York rewarded my efforts richly. I can tell
you I caught Haniil Latimer just as he was entering one of the great oft'ice
buildings ; the directory of names at the entrance showed that he was Editor-m-
Chiel of a great magazine whose offices were housed there. Further, uptown ,
in the residential section I noticed a large open-air platform on which a' taU, slim
slightly grayed man was speaking to a crowd of spell-bound listeners. Can't you
o-uess who it was? Whv, any member fo the class of 1929 would know that it
j'ust couldn't be anvone but Robert StalHngs ; I could see by the banners displayed
around the platform that he was speaking in behalf of his candidacy for mayor of
New York. A third member of the old crowd I saw walking clown the steps
of a large pubUc building. Men and women with note books in handevidently
reporters crowded about him. Newsboys were crying special editions, and
the headline of one paper gave me the information I wanted, "Curtis Milom, bril-
liant lawyer," it read, "wins famous case." Well Curtis always was the best
"argufier" we had in the class.

My attention was attracted to a large crowd entering an opera house, so
with great interest I focused my telescope on the state and to my greatest surprise
I beheld Golson Stephens leading a world famous symphony orchestra while his
wife Hazel Herrin was taking a leading part of the opera. Just as I was about
to turn my attention to another part of the city my eyes fell on the piano and who
should be playing it but Lucile Owens.

I next turned my telescope to Hollywood, California and the hrst thing T.
saw was John Ray's "Hot Dog Stand." He seemed to be making good for there
was cjuite a crowd around the stand.

A great moving picture studio was in view so 1 decided to see if it were
possible to find any of my classmates here, and sure enough there was Leslie
Powers starring in a picture opposite Margaret Fullilove. As 1 was lookiiigaround
I saw Jesse Jordon, the director, march out and start towards Mar-j^ttret as if he
were going fo kill her, so I concluded that they must be married.

My next scene was in Los Angeles. I saw some beautiful fruit trees and
wondered who owned them when suddenly Manar Cansler came into sight and
was talking to some workmen and I knew that he must be the owner. A theatre
caught my eye and I thought perhaps I could find some of my classmates here
and sure enough there was Gladys Denny, a great "FA SA LA" singer! The
next act was two black faced comedians but they didn't fool me for I recognized
them as Hugh Lee Crook and Fred Denney. I decided to take a peep into
the University of California and see if any of my old school mates had gone there
sure enough there was Troy Chambers a dignified mathematics professor.

I then focused my telescope to Miami, Fla., 1 saw a certain beautiful estate
and before I could wonder who it belonged to I saw Dewey CoUett and Wilber
Rowe coming into the garden so 1 took for granted they were married. Next I
decided to look into one of the office buildings and I saw written on the door
"Steve Worthy, Landscape Gardener." 1 saw him giving dictations to his secretary.
Just as that instant Avis Barr rushed in and from the scene that followed I knew
her to be Mrs. Steve Worthy. I next looked into a large library and saw Bernice
Bohanon at the desk being assisted by (irace Caswell.

THE AGGIES, NINETEEN TWENTY^NINE ***

Aiv next thoughts were on Texas, so I focused my telescope on El Paso ana
on a large ranch I saw a small man on a horse back. I couldn t make out who
he was o1, account of his sombrero but he soon came to the house and took it off
And to nv surprise it was Bob Steed! I decided he was trynrg" to keep off so
naanV^frTcller-'l recognized Benson Kelly and M^-vin ^^^^^^^.^^^
rode UD I saw King Nichols, the postmaster. 1 next saw a beaut ful old bpanisn
home and tlor^ht I VI f^nd out whi owned it when Christu.e Scudder walked out
S Harvey Lee McWaters. They were looking over some blue prmts and I
took it for granted Harvey Lee was an architect.

I next turned my telescope to Paris. The first person I saw was Lucile
FridJell and 1 followe'd her to i model shop Here I ^"-^^f ^^ ^ll^erta JoW^
was the owner of the shop, Christine Crawford her assistant, and Lucile, Helen
Huff and Clestelle Hightower models. I next saw a large dancing school and
decided to see if any of my classmates owned it and sure enough on the cooi
rnaJked 'Private" wL the name of Thomas Miller. He was giving lessons to a
little French girl.

I next turned my telescope to Hong Kong, China, where I found Mary Helen
Land, who was a missionary to the heathens.

Tn Africa I saw a long hunting expedition headed by James Carter and Loyce
Barns Christme Burson, Blanche Almon, Doyle Caswell and Myers Hyde were m
the party. . .

Mv telescope was next turned to Atlanta, Georgia. I saw a .s/g" with tne

%i{v!tZ Room"- and I decided to investigate and see if it belonged to

Ne7B.S; lmZ loT^l'ine Cole. Bessie Maude Kee and Eunice Watson

were waitresses. ,1 next found Opal Pullen opennrg a candy shop on I eacht.e.

""'as I swung the telescope to the old hotne town 1 l*'t help but w-onder

-^IX^Sfet^ra^S^ jrrtali ;^n:d\:S hi;:^ ca^l^
persdti Who steppe ^ost professional manner-evidently a prosperous, self-

weTe lames Sto^v and Ots Taylor, who were street car conductors. I next turned
towLd chool-first I looked in the office and found Jessie Ful er miing Mr.
ingmnV place L.ez Jordon was an efficient English teacher while Emmie Lou
Ben was still holding the place of Librarian. The next pei;son I saw was
Earne" Jack on who^ was itaching Chemistery. Then I saw Darden Spradhn
ft thrnonltrv hou^e and Virgil Lee had his class of boys helping w th the
^Lkens' M/next'cene was i^. the dining hall when I found Grace Spradhn the
matron I saw a car drive up and found that Sterling Kitchens was still chauff-
ering, only this time it was for Jessie Fuller and not Mr. Ingram.

\ laid down the telescope and glanced at my watch. It was four o'clock m
earth wT had not realized that I had been looking through the planetary
Sescope so long, still, it had been indeed a pleasant birthday diversion to see
once nSre even at such tremendous distance, my classmates of days gone by
HurriTyi climbed into my biplane and started off and I would just about get
back to earth in time for the birthday dinner my family were having for me.

Class Poem

Anchored in harbor for four long years.

We've toiled with mast and sail,
And now with mingled joy and tears,

We watch the rising gale
That bears our bark to lands afar.

O'er waters strange and new ;
And as we harbor bar.

We speak this last adieu.

Full well we love this peaceful shore,

For you our hearts will pine.
But duty calls us to do more ;

To dare the splashing brine.
Yet shall we carrv our way

Glad memories of you, i
As we go forth on that bright day

We'll say, farewell, adieu !

Our crew has been a crew of joy.

Each soul has done its part,
And as we shout the last ahoy,

Oh, Ship, be ready to depart.
For though we leave our Carrollton homes

Sweet memories ever new,
In far off countries where we roam,

Will call to you. Adieu !

Oh, Ship, fierce waves may drench thy sides,

Grey storm clouds hover round,
Beneath dark shadows hid yon glide,

Until you've pierced the sound.
Your Captain leads with skillful hand

This rough and rugged way.
And he will guide you safe to land,

To harbor, one sweet day.

As dawn unfolds her radient wings,

Take courage and go forth.
Each storm outridden new strength brings

And proven thy spirits worth.
Brave hearts and strong, glad hearts and free,

True hearts that naught can sever,
Life's glory waits upon life's sea.

Sail on, oh, ship, forever.

Junior Poem

Jolly Junior class we stand
United in one loyal band.
Nor one dunce in any line ;
Ideals soar to stars that shine.
Our ascents by leaps and bounds.
Reach to the highest rounds.

Call us by what name you will
Let that name be good or ill,
All that we would ask for you
Speak, kind reader, tell us true
Should success crown what we do?

Yon ask for a toast to the heroes tonight.

To those who were ^-ictors in many a fight,

To the names that are sung by the pul^Hc in praise

To the stars that rose from a battlefield's haze

Well, fill up your glasses and drink to my toast :

Here's a toast to the army, a toast to the host,

A toast to the jewel, which fate has encrusted.

It"s only a drink to the forgotten, the dub

Here's a toast to His Honor, His Honor: "The Scrub'

"It's only a toast to the shadows no more

You never will, see them it's a terrible bore

\\ atching them struggle in snow and in rain.

Bleeding and fighting for a varsity's name.

1 ou say that your heroes struggle as well ?

Yes, they get the honor ; the Scrub gets the Hell !

He's only a shadow it's all in the game

And the butterfly you see in the gold of the flame.

It's only a drink to the forgotten, the dub

Here's a toast to His Honor, His Honor : The Scrul)

Athletics

Backward glances into A. & M's. Athletic history reveals another success-
ful year in that branch of the school's activity. Beginning the year, successful in
football, ending the year successful in baseball, glowing tribute is paid our coach,
Mr. J. C. Luckey, who lived and fought to see the teams he coached win and
win fairly.

Many thanks to him that nearly all our athletic conquest ended with just
another victory.

Beginning in September with football, 5 games were won and 4, lost. The
schedule was the hardest obtainable and many of our toughest opponents were
sent back in defeat. Then came basketball, 13 games were won and 6 were lost.
Our standing in the Fourth District Basketball Tournament was high. Just
another of Coach Luckey 's successful teams.

The track team was composed of some of the districts speediest athletes.
Many more were developed for future use.

Following track, the base ball season opened. A & M. sent forth to the
demand its first baseball team in recent years. So far, 4 games have been won
and. 2 lost. A very impressible record for so short a season.

Considering the success of the year and the amount of new material developer!
for future use, the school year 1928-29 has beea highly successful in all branches
of athletics.

^Those having done their last for dear old A. & M. have no greater
wish that to see Coach Luckey back at the helm for another season to carry on
the good work.

the Aggies and we take a pride in them.

I'ts known every where by every one

That our A. & M. is the best under the sun.

The heads of departments are known for their worth

And the student body has grown from its birth,

But this is just an add to trade at our score

So maybe we had best not write any more.

We will say with common sense and reason,

We have never had so many pretty goods as this season.
