Sometimes these truths are embodied in great losses— so great as to make their imme- diate acceptance impossible. Such was the case, for those who knew him, at the untimely death of L; nwood Campbell. Lynwood graduated from Anderson College in 1952 leaving an excel- lent scholastic record and a profound good impression on all ith whom he had been associated. He was a member of Phi Theta Kappa, treasurer of the Town Council of the Student Government Association, a reporter on the Yodler staff, and had been awarded a token for having the highest chemistry average as a freshman. Lynwood had continued his fine work as a twenty-one year old junior at Clemson College when he died of polio on July 16, 1953, after only a week ' s illness. Because of his deep regard for high ideals, his Christian chara cter, and his devotion to the pursuit of sound knowledge, we remember Lynwood Campbell and his exemplification of ' hat we believe to be the ideal stu- dent and gentleman. 25 REGISTRATION . . .

The Yocller editors went to Greenwood for the 1953 convention of the South Carohna Collegiate Press. Climaxing the convention came the night of the banquet. Winners of awards were announced with Helen Hendley of AC receiving the prize for the best poem. Senior colleges for girls, co-educational senior colleges, and one lone junior college, An- derson College, dreamed of the cup for the col- lege newspaper with enrollment under 500. Then came the thrilling moment when the An- derson College editor found herself at the front o f the banquet hall receiving the cup for The Yocller— -A trophy representing hours of h a r d work by staff members and years of planning and guidance by the faculty advisor.

The 1953-54 session brought a new Yodler room nearer the front of Denmark Hall and another All-American certificate to place on the walls, to make a total of eleven of the highest awards granted by the Associated Collegiate Press. But new Yodler editors can ' t rest on past laurels. The first of every month finds the advertising staff hopefulK calling on busi- ness houses, reporters searching for scoops, editors typing away like mad at the last inches of copy. Finally another Yodler is put to bed ... a Yodler which staff members hof)e will not break the chain of prize winning newspapers. J. BAYNARD, D. EZELLE, D. WEATHERFORD, L. SULLIVAN, E. SHELTON, J.

The formation of a basketball squad has helped round out the college ' s sports program. Basketball season, coming in the winter months, fills the lull during the time when bad weather restricts the physical education department ' s other activities. After two eminently successful seasons under the coaching of Don Hubbard, the Confederates picked Lyndon Carey to suc- ceed Hubbard. Under Carey ' s capable man- agement, the Confederates have made a great showing for themselves. The team is closely associated with the Basketball Club. Twelve members are carried on the team. In the event of a player ' s dis- qualification, a good prospect from the club is advanced to the team standing. First Row: S. PEELER, D. WEATHERFORD, C. THOMAS, J. WHITE, J. HESTER. Second Row: O.

May was given a stirring welcome on the sec- ond day of the month, a Saturday, at 5:00 P. M. at Anderson College. The event was marked by a tremendous three-ring circus complete with acrobats and a menagerie. Peggy Emanuel, as Mistress of Ceremonies, kept the show going in the college auditorium, which served as the big top for the day. Heralded by Dot Gregory and DoUie Stone, the Queen of May was crowned— Miss Grace Tumlin of Fountain Inn. She was well set off by a full retinue of attendants. The fun and frivolity got under way with the entire cast in " March Militaire. " In the first ring . . . Julia Stubblefield and Bernice Powell Isbell demonstrated their talents at tumbling. This duet was followed by a somewhat larger group sing- ing " Take Me Out to the Ball Game. " Then the Marshalls, a barbershop quartet par excellence, consisting of Eugene Smith, Don Hubbard, Adger Hiott and Gene Eaker sang " Ain ' t We Got Fun. " A tap dance was ne.xt; Nan Waters, Jane Baynard, Barbara Trincher, and Shirley Channell performed to the music of " Stars and Stripes Forever. " A group of lions waltzed across the stage while the band pla ed " Tales from Vienna Woods.

The program was topped by a fencing demonstration by Mrs. Norman Armitage of Clemson and her students. May Day of 1953 was a day that will bring a nostalgic tear to more than one eye when it is remembered as years go by.
