We are thinking, rather, as we see the old plantation house today, that we are glad it is surrounded by busy Southern boys and girls, dormitories, classrooms, shops and a library instead of its former slave quarters. Gordon Watson Wc dedicate this, the seventh edition of the CHIEF- TAIN, to Gordon Watson because we believe he represents those qualities which we should like to suggest throughout this yearbook . = . the combina- tion of culture, charnn and graciousness with keen intelligence, deep learning and gentle but effective leadership. dedication CONTENTS THE COLLEGE II THE CLASSES III ACTIVITIES IV ATHLETICS V FEATURES "LOT NO. 99, LAND DISTRICT NO. .^^^He SE NUMBERS WERE DRAW 1^1^ :TcjrTi---e,.

ALABAMA TO JOIN VARSITY The 1940 Braves, coached by Rhea Taylor, won 11 of 17 scheduled games, boasting one of the best records in the history of the college. They won the Carrollton city championship by defeating the Carrollton Redskins four out of five games. They advanced to the second round of the Junior College Tournament but were defeated by the strong G. M. C. team. The team was formed around lettermen Seth Whittemore, Glenn Whittemore, Earle Griffin and Hubert Brooks. The first team was composed of the Whittemore brothers, Earl Griffin, Daniel Rogers, and Edgar Padgett. These were backed by an unusually strong second team. First row: Glenn Whittemore, Edgar Padgett, Captain Seth Whittemore, Earle Griffin, Daniel Rogers. . . . Second row: Tony Bryant, Mack Stinson, Hubert Brooks, Freeman Bentley, J. L.

The team was composed oi Sherman Eley, captain; Merlin Rogers, Kontz Acree and Ralph Pitchford, forwards; John Mason and Roy Acree, centers; Hershel Williamson, Davis Dodson, Charles Morris and Fred Seymour, guards; and Mather Hyatt, manager. Eley's brilliant shooting and JMascn's passing led the offense. Charles Morris, Hershel Williamson and Merlin Rogers proved very satisfactory at the defensive posts.

Baseball The 1939 Braves were coached by Rhea Taylor. Due to an incomplete schedule and a lack of pitching strength, the Braves lost four of their five sciieduled games. The only lettermen re- turning were Tom Luck and V. M. Almon. The team was led in hitting by Crowder, Garrett, and Almon. The 1940 team will be formed around returning lettermen Hubert Brooks, Bill Alexander, and Robert Milam. The team will be coached by Burch Wilcox, former university athlete.

THEV WERE GOOD ENOUGH TO LEAVE ALL THE MIDDLIN' MEAL" H PEACE CAME, FOLLOWED BY RECONSTRUCTION AND ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ADJUSTMENTS. THERE WAS AGAIN MUCH SORROW WHEN ABE'S WHITE FOLKS LEFT IN 1866 FOR NEW LAND IN ALABAMA AND NEW OPPORTUNITIES. ABE'S FREEDOM BECAME THE CROPPER'S THRALDOM AS HE SEVERED HIS CONNECTIONS WITH THE OLD HOME PLACE ON LOT NINETY-NINE, jj THE LAND IN TIME BECAME THE PROPERTY OF THE SHARP FAMILY AND IN 1906 IT WAS DEEDED TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FOURTH DISTRICT A. & M. SCHOOL, WHICH OPENED ITS DOORS IN JANUARY, 1908, WITH J. H. MELSON AS PRINCIPAL FOR MORE THAN A QUARTER OF A CENTURY GEORGIA SUPPORTED AN AGRICULTURAL BOARDING SCHOOL ON THE PRESENT CAMPUS WHERE THE OUTLINE OF A TRACK FOR HORSE RACING AND A LARGE GRAND STAND CAN STILL BE SEEN. MANY PARENTS OF THE PRESENT STUDENT BODY SAW HERE THEIR FIRST AEROPLANE ENCLOSED IN A TENT, FOR A PRICE OF TWENTY-FIVE CENTS ADMISSION. ![ AMERICA'S ENTRY INTO THE WORLD WAR IN 1917 BROUGHT SADNESS TO THE CAMPUS AS MANY STUDENTS. ALUMNI, AND FACULTY JOINED THE ARMY. FOR TWO YEARS MILITARY TRAINING WAS PART OF THE CURRICULUM. V/HEN PEACE CAME THERE WERE GOLD STARS IN THE SCHOOL'S SERVICE FLAG. H THE A. & M. SCHOOL SURVIVED THE "BOLL-WEEVIL DEPRESSION" OF 1920 AT WHICH TIME I. S. INGRAM BECAME ITS HEAD. WHEN FARM PRICES COLLAPSED IN THE LATE NINETEEN THIRTIES AND CONSOLIDATED HIGH SCHOOLS BEGAN TO SPRING UP EVERYWHERE. OVERLAPPING THE WORK OF THE A. & M. SCHOOU THERE WAS A DIRE NEED FOR A REVISION OF ORGANIZATION AND OBJECTIVES. THE NEWLY-CREATED BOARD OF REGENTS TOOK OVER THE DEEDS TO THE PROPERTY IN 1932 AND DURING THE FOLLOWING YEAR AipOLLEGE OF JUNIOR RANK OPENED ITS DOORS TO APPROXIMATELY 200^UDENTS. THE LOCATION OF THIS YOUNGEST INSTITUTION OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA WAS IN THE GEOGRAPHIC CENTER OF THE LAST BRACE OF NEW COUNTIES CREATED IN GEORGIA FROM THE CREEK AND CHEROKEE LANDS. THE PRESENT 450 STUDENTS ARE FOR THE MOST PART DESCENDANTS OF THOSE LAST GEORGIA PIONEERS WHO CROSSED THE FLINT AND THE CHATTAHOOCHEE MORE THAN A HUNDRED YEARS AGO. THE COLLEGE ITSELF IS A PIONEER IN A CERTAIN TYPE OF EDUCATION. AMONG OTHER THINGS IT IS DEDICATED TO THE TASK OF UPBUILDING RURAL GEORGIA SOCIALLY, CULTURALLY, AND ECONOMICALLY THROUGH ITS UNIQUE PROGRAM OF RURAL TEACHER-TRAINING. IN THIS IT HAS RECEIVED SOME NATIONAL RECOGNITION AND SOME LASTING ENCOURAGEMENT. SINCE 1937 THE ROSENWALD FUND HAS BEEN AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN AN EFFORT TO ACHIEVE ITS OBJECTIVES. THROUGH COOPERATION WITH THE CHANCELLOR AND THE BOARD OF REGENTS, jj LOT NUMBER 99 STILL FILLS ITS PLACE IN THE SOCIAL FABRIC OF THE TIMES.
