DANNELLV To Our Alumni: It mighl be better form to make of this statement, requested by the editor-in-chief, a general editorial en the value of active alumni to their Alma Mater. This is almost an axiom and needless of further comment than to say that no college can well succeed that does not have the hearty and active co-operation of those whom it sends forth into the world. ( largely depends on vou as lo what kind of institution Birmingham-Southern College is lo be. So permit me to take this space and make of it an agency of appeal for the support of those men and women who have attended this institution. If you are cool and luke- warm, what opinion will men of other colleges hold of that which ought to be dear in your memory? If you are warm and enthusiastic, what opinion will men hold of that which is dear in your memory? It is on the opinion of men and women and boys and girls that we hope to secure future students. Are you doing your share in driving among your acquaintances with active loyal propaganda? If not, get hiisv! If your vision of Birmingham-Southern — only now in the making, despite its years of previous existence as two different institutions — is limited by what either institution was in the past, then Birmingham-Southern College will continue lo be a small, struggling college looked upon by prospective students as a second-rater. I shall never forget Page nineteen if- how a little excuse for a man, merely a backbone grown high and covered with hair, made me furious by ridiculing Birmingham-Southern as a second-class college. And, if you will permit me frankness, that attitude is permitted by too many of the fellows who have gone from its walls, and who know better, but who are silent in the face of ignorant accusers or who lack the nerve to speak up and tell what he Ifnoms. If your vision of Birmingham-Southern is large, including a desire for all the depart- ments necessary to meet the needs of all boys who would attend it, and including alumni support that would build up a spirit of loyalty that would hold the fellows, once they attended, then the school will in lime rank with the larger attended institutions of the state — in the mind of the prospective student. And here is where the alumni, through its association, might do the best work on a small scale. But what have iou given to date to help the plans of your association mature? You have been made conversant with these plans by mail, and yet the alumni have not backed us with sufficient funds to thoroughly popularize the institution among the high school seniors of the state. This message is not desired to leave you pessimistic. Your president is not pessimistic. He believes that, in time, the alumni generally will awaken, as have a few, and then — but not until then — will we be a force in the building up of a great educational plant in the great industrial region of our great state. With all of us fellows doing everything that the association asks, there is no telling what might be done. The question is. Have jiou or are ijou going to do our part? The editor-in-chief asks that this article be along the line of prospects of Birmingham- Southern. The prospects of Birmingham-Southern are its alumni, in large measure, and to them the old school would seem to say: I ' ve knocked around amazin ' in this world of calm and storm; I ' ve had some hard old battles, but I ' ve kept a-ploddm ' on. And my spirit ' s just as cheery as it ever was, you bet; I ' ve had my tribulations, BUT 1 AIN ' T DEAD YET! And it ain ' t going to die; but just how live a thing it is depends on you. Yours cheerfully and hopefully, C. M. Dannelly, President Alumni Association. Page lIDenl], ' my ma-) .i  ljj |iPl!

Page tTi cnl }-icVen j Senior Class History OUR years ago we assembled for the first time on Sunshine Slopes, inno- cent, ignorant, verdant Freshmen. Today we stand upon the lofty pedestal of seniority, almost prepared to step forth into the world as college men and college graduates. What a vast difference in our feeling s then and now! As Rats we had to bear the multiplex machinations of overbearing and dominant upper-classmen. It was then that determination and a fight- ing spirit were inculcated in our minds, and so when we became Sophomores we swore with mighty terror to have vengeance. We swooped down upon the unsuspecting Freshmen and made them feel the weight of the bed slat wielded by our mighty hand. In cur Junior year we began to realize the sacredness of our mission and to turn our attention to loftier pursuits. On the campus, in athletics, in the class room, in love, we were successful, for one of our number left the dormitory to build a cottage for two. The fourth year was the dawn of a new era — the goal of our scholastic attainment. Reduced in numbers, but not in spirit, we are still the busiest class in college, the class that stands for knowledge. We have gone over the top, captured the land of knowl- edge, and are about to hoist our flag. For four years we have fought in an atmosphere surcharged with the smoke of battle and darkened by threatening clouds of doubt and fear. But we are the victors, and the rewards of the fight belong to us. Among us we have seven types of human beings, each with his own individual charac- teristics, but all aiming toward the highest ideals and loftiest achievements in life. In college we have all made names for ourselves, some in athletics, some in the class room, some in society. In life we shall strive toward various goals, and whatever of praise or honor shall be ours, the glory belongs to our Alma Mater. Let us remember that what- ever we achieve in life that is worth while must be pro Chnsto et Republica. We Tip the scale to its highest point We ' re O. K. and never out of joint. Page iweniM cr ' e ' .f f I .1 I - Senior Class Prophecy Once upon a miJnighl Jrcar , Ji hilc I pondered, n ca and ii eai }. Over man}} a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore ; While I nodded, near!]) napping, suddenly there came a tupping. As of someone genlly rapping, rapping at ml) chamber door. ' ' Tis some visitor, ' I muttered, ' lapping at m ) chamber door ; Only this and nothing more. ' Open here I flung the shutter, jvhen, Tvith many a flirt and flutter. In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore; Not the least obeisance made he; not an instant stopped or stayed he; But, Tvith mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door — Perched upon a bust of Pallas, just above my chamber door — Perched and sat, and nothing more. Dum founded by the appearance of this strange visitor, so vividly portrayed by Poe, I had scarcely recovered my balance when I was more astonished than ever to hear the raven speak. Would you like to look into the future and see the changes that will take place in the next ten years? quoth he. If so, follow me. And without further ado he flew out through the door of my chamber. Acting on the impulse, I grabbed my hat and followed him. It did not take me long to realize the vast changes that had taken place in the world during the lapse of ten years, especially in the modes of transportation. A fast plane with a maximum speed of 300 miles per hour was at my disposal during my wanderings with the raven. But I haven ' t time to dwell on the momentous changes in the world, and will only mention what I saw of my classmates of the 1920 Class of Birmingham-Southern Col- lege, as I saw them in 1930. The first one I ran across was Tipton. As everyone can easily imagine, he was in the midst of a heated discussion. He had been sent to Congress, and was trying to put through one of his many reform measures. During my conversation with him he told me that he had at last found a Sweet Juvina willing to join hands with him in holy wedlock. My next stop was in Philadelphia, where I ran across John T. Bradford. Tap- pie had been the manager of the Philadelphia Athletics for three years, and held two world championship rags in his belt. He told me that our popular ex-captain, Sig Levie, had served Harvard as head coach the fall before, and that he, too, had been very successful. I arrived in New ' ork just in time to see Eugene Malone. He had received his doctor ' s degree at Columbia University and was on his way South to begin his first term as President of Birmingham-Southern College. He had never been able to leave the Hill, except to take his degree, and had been quite a success as a professor in our Alma Mater. Vaughan Howard was also in New ' ork City. He was holding down the position of editor-in-chief of one of the greatest dailies in the country. I asked Page iDrnlynine -- - Vaughan if he had heard of O. K. Lamb lately, and he surprised me by saying that ' Osie Kiah had given up the ministry and had taken up the profitable business of stock raising. Just as I was climbing out of my plane in the aerodrome of my palatial home on Fifth Avenue, New York, I found myself going over the foot of an iron bed in East Hall to the tune of ' Soupy, played by our jet-black friend, Lee. Senior Class Poem Long, long ihe way our feet have come, And ihorny, too, and rough to some; But now the goal salutes our gaze, The last of many happy days. And as we view the fading past And dream on days that fled so fast. Full many a thorn which once was ours Seems all a-blossom now with flowers. The bugle call of life to men Who must the battle now begin; We ' ll win the battle is our song; Defend the right, redress the wrong. We come, O Duty, valiant strong; The friends of right, the foes of wrong. O Alma Mater, while we bow, Thy hand of blessing ' s on each brow. And when in distant years we turn Our footsteps where thine altars burn, Still true to honor and to ihee We ' ll pledge undying loyalty.

White Page ihirlD-one f— Page ihirl -two Junior Class Prophecy AVING had the very great honor of being elected to the high office of Prophet by the august body of the Junior Class, we hereby offer for your perusal the following indications that we have received from the Prophetic Spirit: The name of S. M. Baker appears on the Magic Glass, and we read the report of the Spirit to find that there is lying out before him a great name as a salesman, provided he limits his activities to the belt business. The name of W. G. Barnes comes before the Prophetic Eye, and from all indications we are assured that Barnes will yet prove to that fair damsel that her best interests lie in accepting him in preference to the other fellow. The next man to appear for his fate is the Honorable J. R. Duncan, better known as Mother Duncan. The Spirit is clear in its assurance that he will succeed, but there is some uncertainty as to what his success will be in, since he has so many jobs, such as P. C, electrician, waiter, barber, etc. The Prophetical Spirit is always glad when it has an easy job to perform. Without any effort whatsoever the Spirit asserts that if H. W. Denman can only be endured for another term he will succeed in putting the profs to rout in the art of debating. The halo that overshadows the raven locks of A. B. Branscomb is no longer in danger of being dissipated, since D. D. W. retired from the field of combat. Therefore, the Spirit predicts a happy consummation of all the desires and ambitions of this mod- ern Romeo. The Prophet desires to encourage J. W. de Yampert, the noted checker player, by assuring him that persistence is a great virtue, and that he will yet succeed in defeating the math teacher in a checker game and will, therefore, pass math. The Spirit is clear in its prediction that C. M. Kelly will become a great public spsaker, provided he has the opportunity of another year ' s practice in the class room. The task of settling the fate of our friend, A. E. Middlebrooks, is a hard one. The hardness of the task is due to his extreme reserve. But we are assured by the Spirit that he will ever be like unto a spring in a desert place, since his dry wit is so refreshing. Gone, but not forgotten, is our former classmate, D. D. White. We are assured that White will some day become victorious in his love affairs on the condition that he will let the other fellow ' s girl alone. 1 he Prophet would suggest advertising for a girl without a beau. The name of W. W. White flashes through the ethereal spirit world, and like a thunderclap the answer returns — that he is destined to become a great impersonator. His specialty will be college presidents. The Prophet cannot throw any light on Why does a humming-bird hum? The next name to appear before the Prophetic Eye is that of J. M. Neese, and we hear the words of the Spirit, Back home in Indiana he shall find his ' Neese ' and his wife. The Spirit also raises this profound question: Is Joe Neese Slim ? Page lhirl )-lhrec The Prophetic Spirit has an easy task in stating that Miss Rosamond will succeed, for everyone knows that modesty is the most charming of all virtues and must win in the end. The hard part of the Prophet ' s work is to determine why it is that certain members of the class have such thick heads and display such lack of judgment when it comes to the study of character. The Prophet is weary of being disturbed from his quiet and peaceful rest, but with one final effort he summons strength enough to say that a brilliant life of service lies cut before each member of the Junior Class if he will only take the Great Pilot as his friend and give to Him the best that within him lies. Junior Class Poem Oh, to be able to say the words That will make a weak heart strong! Oh, to be able to live a life That will help some other along! For it ' s jusl the things that have helped us live — The strong, true words, and the lives that give. And this is the aim of us Juniors true — To give of our best each day to you ; And we hope that we may always be Not only happy and jolly and free. But kind and thoughtful and helpful to you Who will travel the path we have just passed through. Page ihiri -four 50FH0HMCS i ..

T. Moore was president. I he institution, under the leadership of Dr. Moore and two of his able assistants, Ernest Cleverdon and Stanley Morgan, professors of mathematics and science, respectively, had become o.-.e of the foremost col- leges of the South. The campus had been so beautified by the erection of new buildings, the removal of the rocks and the planting of trees that I hardly recognized it. 1 he exercises were attended by a large crowd, among whom I recog- nized my former fellow students, H. M. Cooper and Cecil Hitchcock, who were the most successful lawyers in Birmmgham. Cooper told me that he had recently won a case for H. G. Moseley, who was suing the B. R. L. P. because one of their cars had slightly injured him. The exercises were a great success and toward the close were turned over to the alumni association, of which Rev. P. D. Scrivner was president. After discussing the business of the precedmg year. Rev. Scrivner made a speech on The Future of Birmingham-Southern College. After the close of the exercises. Rev. Scrivner and I had a long talk, and after a while the convers ation naturally turned to the subject of our former classmates. He told me that our old friend, Charlie Maxwell, was pastor of the First Methodist Church at Hogwallow, Alabama, which, under his able guidance, had become the largest church in the city. Rev. Maxwell was well assisted by Gerwin Myer, who was choir leader and one of the strongest members. Rev. Scrivner also told me that while traveling through New Orleans a few months ago he had learned that Dr. John M. Akin was president of Tulane University. Being very much pleased to hear this, he had visited Dr. Akin and spent several days in his pleasant company. Dr. Akin had told him that their football team had won the S. I. A. A. championship, which was possible because of the efficiency of the coach, Robert J. Rowe. As Rev. Scrivner had to catch his train, our conversation came to an end, but just as he left Dr. Moore came to me and proposed that we take a trip in his runabout to the Blue Ridge Mountains for cur health. I readily assented, and we left the next day at sunrise. We reached Anniston about ten o ' clock, and while going down the main thor- oughfare the sign, Hammett Meigs Mercantile Company, met our eyes. Of course, we stopped and found that they were our old classmates, Frank Hammett and James Meigs. After talking a while with them, we walked down the street and came to a book store, where we saw Catherine Williams ' latest book, The Red Mountain Ram- bler, highly advertised. We purchased a copy and continued our walk down the street until we came to the courthouse, where we found Francis White, Sheriff of Calhoun County, who had just returned from making an important arrest. We returned to our runabout and continued our journey, taking care all the time not to exceed the speed limit, for White seemed to be an efficient officer. We reached Atlanta about nine o ' clock, and took our runabout to the best garage in the city, which was owned by N. M. ' eilding. We were on our way to a hotel when we met Beauregard Bagley, who invited us to go home with him, which wo gladly d d. He told us that he was in the life insurance business and, judging from his prosperous appearance, he had made a grand success. When we reached his home we were intro- duced to Mrs. Bagley, and we both agreed that Beauregard had shown good taste in Page lhlrl )-mne the choice of a helpmate. Since the next day was Sunday, we all went to the First Methodist Church and heard Rev. C. D. Matthews preach a very soul-stirring sermon on The Destiny of Man. Dr. Moore and I stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Bagley until the next mornmg, and then went on our way. We reached Greensboro, N. C, two days later, and there found C. S. Reynolds surveying the route of the Roosevelt Highway. We learned that he had graduated from Georgia Tech and had won much success as a surveyor. That night we went to hear the Honorable A. B. Davidson, newly-elected Senator from North Carolina, speak upon the Problems of the College Man. Among the crowd which attended the lecture we recognized Miss Janie Grace and Miss Lucille Colvin, who owned and worked in a great laboratory in Greensboro. They told us that Miss Harriett Chappell had just won the tennis championship of the world. The next day we went on to Richmond, Va., and since we had both caught a serious cold, we went to the best physician in town, which happened to be Dr. W. D. Webb. Dr. Webb gave us some medicine and we were speedily cured. As we came out of his office we saw a large sign across the street, J. W. de Yampert, Undertaker, and from the looks of his establishment we supposed he was doing a good business. We went to see de Yampert, and he told us that Miss Gladys Green was principal of the Mount Vernon Seminary for Girls. De Yampert seemed tired from his labor, and so we per- suaded him to leave his business and show us over the city. The first place that we visited was a large tobacco factory owned by W. P. Snuggs. As Dr. Moore and I were interested in all kinds of manufacturing, Snuggs spent some time in showing us over the plant. After about six hours de Yampert had to return to his work, and so we continued our exploring alone. While gomg down a street we saw a large restaurant and on going in to get supper were very much surprised to see that J. M. Metcalf was proprietor. He came over and talked a long time with us, and would not hear of us paying for the meal. The next day we decided to leave our runabout in Richmond and go up the James River in a boat. On the way we were joined by J. E. Holmes, who was also traveling for his health. Holmes was an author and gave us one of his books to read, which we enjoyed immensely. After spending three months on our outing, we returned very much improved in health. Dr. Moore went to take up his executive duties at Birmingham-Southern College, and I retired to a quiet retreat.

Soph omore CI ass r oem I SAW MY SWEETHEART COMB HER HAIR I saw my sweetheart comb her hair; ' Twas summer, and the sunbeams gay Around it twinkled in dance and play As it swung softly in the air. Oh! I was silling in a chair; By impulse seized from head to fool, My lips against her lips to put, I threw my arms up in despair. So, suddenly I left ihe chair, And trembling now from head to foot. My lips against her lips I put, And wound around us both — her hair. My love I told right then and there, For she could not so well resist; And she got kissed and kissed and kissed. Why could she not so well resist? Oh, I was holding in each fist A melting handful of her hair. And Cupid saw — to this he ' ll swear — And 1 most impassionately declare: No more shall water wash my face; It ' s clean and cool for time and place — I bathed it in my sweetheart ' s hair.

Every word of the speakers served to spur our helpful ambitions, and we all foresaw a most successful year. As unable as we were to think clearly, or even to think at all, when we appeared before the ferocious Professor Colebeck, we finally succeeded in registering and enrolling. The college roster was an unknown thing to some of us until we were admitted to the president ' s office and saw the long list of signa- tures; then, of course, we understood and stuck our fist to the long list of those who had already signed. How can we ever forget Rat night? We remember to have been led down on the athletic field, and to have been asked — the asking was sufficient — to run the gauntlet formed by upper-classmen. We shall not forget the various prints of straps and buckles which we obtained while performing that very graceful act. Some of us welcomed with joyful hearts the announcement of the president of the instushun that there should be no more physical hazing. Others, looking forward to the pleasure that they might derive from that pleasant exercise the following year, did not receive the announcement with quite as much delight. As to our courses, trigonometry afforded to the number of those who took it a source of much enjoyment in the studying that it required, and we were all delighted with the outline work of Bible A. In History A the instructor may not have been a hearty sup- porter of our Exit Club, but he was a very liberal contributor. Our English professor must have thought that he was not keeping up the standard set by the other professors, for we were assigned a 2,000-word theme. Since we have completed our courses we fully understand the meaning and the truth that there is in the motto, Nothing w ith- out work. As a class, we took a large part in all college activities. Glee Clubbing was our specialty. In athletics the number of Freshman representatives was few, but the quality of these few easily balanced that which the class lacked in number. The class is proud of the fact that our star athlete, Tanlac Burney, was one of the two or three men who earned a position on each varsity squad. The class is fortunate in having a number of co-eds, who not only help the high standard of the class, but spread both joy and enthusiasm. The time has now come for us to leave the Freshman Class and take another step higher on the ladder of school life. This we do with joyful expectations of the Sopho- more year which is before us. Page forl -five gfe a., =Jfc = Page forty-six Freshman Class Prophecy September 30, 1928. Dear Classmate: How lonely you must l)e away from all the wcrld on that lonely island in the Pacific! It IS really too bed that frank has to be stationed in that out-of-the-way place. But that ' s what you gel for having Captain Frank Katzenstine for a husband. Army life is about as hard for a wife as for the soldier himself when m your position. My dear, ycu have given me a hard task when you ask me to tell you what has become of our old classmates of the I 920 Freshman Class, but here goes. I shall start with our old Freshman president, Fred Riggan. Fred is now a doctor and is fast gaming fame. The Colston brothers are also famous specialists. Jack Stuart is professor of history at B. S. C. Remember how he used to shine in Professor Owsley ' s class? J. D. Harris is now professor of mathematics at B. S. C, and J. L. Allgood, Paul Abernathy, and Sam Kelly are teaching at various schools. Lmcoln Hall, M. E. Baker, and J. C. Harrison are all successful farmers. D. C. Bracken is high in the political world. Edwin Branscomb is pastor of South Highlands Church; W. S. Tra- week IS pastor at Owenton; and J. L. Williamson is preaching m Mobile. Of course, you remember how many of our boys were athle ' .es. Well, Aubrey M Her is coach at B. S. C, and John ( Tanlac ) Burney and Paul ( Mike ) Norton are coaching at other colleges. Milton Griffin also comes under the heading of athletics, but he has given them up for matrimony and owns a dear little bungalow. I suppose you know that they have a lovely new dormitory for girls at B. S. C. ? And the new matron is Nelle Waldrep, whose name is now Mrs. — oh, well, that ' s another story, but, anyway, she ' s the wife of one of the professors. I paid her a visit a few days ago, and she had just received a letter from Sara New:om telling her of her engagement and approaching marriage to an alumnus of Howard College, or maybe it was Birmingham-Southern, but, anyway, she said she had turned him down twelve times and accepted him the thirteenth time. She has as her matron of honor Anna La Page, who is now Mrs. Somebody-or-other — I do not recall the nam; just now. Anna has a lovely country home, and they say her husband is as fond of athletics as ever. Speaking of romances, Sara ' s is quite romantic; but let me tell you about Austin Cain, the boy who was most in love. I do believe he has had a thousand love affairs since he left the 1 920 Freshman Class, and I wouldn ' t be surprised if he didn ' t have three or four of them at the same time, because the last I heard of him he was trying to evade the vamping of a bewitching little actress, who had about stolen his heart. The movies have claimed Margaret Smoot and John Mabry. You, of course, remember Margaret Smcot, the dear little girl who was voted the prettiest co-ed in 1920, an honor she much deserved; and John Mabry, who quite surprised me, for i was sure he would be a preacher. Cooper Green, Howard ' cilding, and F. R. Abbott arc hig ' i in the business world, and Paul White, R. R. Ruff, W. B. Whatley, and Edgar Moreno have gone out West to make their fortune. J. R. Duke has a large hardware store in Ensley, and one of Page forl f ' Se ren Bessemer ' s largest grocery stores is owned by W. M. Westbrook and Young Vann, with R. A. Baker as their able manager. Lucile Price and Hazel Hanes have made us very proud of them in the literary world. Lucile is one of the leading short story writers, and Hazel is a novelist of much fame. Howard Stansell and E. B. Norton, Jr., have gone in strong for aeroplanes and are instructors in an aviation camp in Texas. W. J. Mitchell and R. M. Montgomery have the agency for the Hudson car and are doing a fine business. The Glee Club at Birmingham-Southern has for its able director Dr. J. H. Howell. Oh, dear! I almost forgot to tell you that our class has two representatives in the missionary field. They are B. P. Hutto and W. N. Dark. E. V. Townsend, as you know, is editor of The Birmingham Ner s, and I saw in his paper last night quite an article about Miss Sanders and Miss Williamson. You, of cour;e, remember Polly and Lois? Polly is president of the Woman ' s Suffrage League, and has on her staff Lois, who has outgrown her baby ways and is a strong leader of woman ' s suffrage. I think this is all of them, isn ' t it? If I have left anyone out, just mention it in your next letter and I will tell you what they are doing, if I can. Your old classmate. I ' rcshman Class Poem I In afler-years, when your school work is over, And the trials of life have begun. Remember the dajs in the Freshman Class, Of all they were the ones. II They were the days when first you met Your friends so faithful and true; How loyal they will be through all the years — • Willing and ready to do. Ill Although the years you ' ve spent in school Have been full of trouble and care, Each day that came brought forth new joys For the brave Freshmen who dare. IV Remember those days? Of course, we will. And after the ratting days are o ' er. Always the memory will linger sweet Of the Class of Twenty-four.

The shrill voice of a newsboy penetrated the walls of my room at 2 A. M. Less than five minutes later I was reading the glaring headlines: RICE NEXT PRESIDENT OF U. S. ELECTED BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY. Fifteen years — what a short time to gain the highest office attainable in the United States. That set me to thinking what the different members of the 1920 Class of Birmingham-Southern High School have been doing between 1920 and 1935. J. Reese is ambassador to Timbuctoo, and that is not the only diplomat from our class. A new office has been created in the President ' s Cabinet — that of Tiddledy- Winks. This office requires a man of unusual ability, and so who should the new Sec- retary of Tiddledy-Winks be but Curtis Sanford! Alan Clark is in Congress. One of his latest and most celebrated speeches is Plea for Increasing the Length of the Day to 311 2 Hours. This speech reflects the deep research work of the author and his thorough knowledge of the subject. Elizabeth Branscomb is suffragette leader of the Ensemble pour I ' eau pure faction, a branch of the Democratic party. Stanton Gandy retired from business life in order to devote his philanthropical career to the improvement of the Owenton-Ensley street car service. He has had installed on this line noiseless cars with Pullman accommodations, running every two and one-eighth minutes. In recognition of Mr. Gandy ' s public-spirited reforms, the student body of Birmingham-Southern College unanimously agreed to name a new variety of doughnuts after him. Claude Vardaman will appear at the Jefferson tomorrow night as director of the Shimminapolis Jazz Band. J. B. Burford is a stockholder in an insurance company which specializes in wh sk- brooms, electric light bulbs, and Christmas cards; while James Butler is proprietor of the Green Ribbon Shoe Shop. Walter Stallings owns a jitney peanut stand whose motto is: If you eat here once, you will never eat anywhere else. William Burney is starring in the movies. His comedy roles are very true to life, so critics declare. His latest picture, The Ups and Downs of a Rat, is said to have been filmed from personal experience. Charles Walston is math teacher in Birmingham-Southern High School. He has recently created world-wide enthusiasm over the question which he propounded before a meeting of the O. C. C. C. (Original Class Cutters ' Convention) : If two spheres are perpendicular, calculate to two decimals the number of teeth in a cro;s-cut saw.

Ha cn ' t you noticed these new cars in the Automobile Show? Well, they are the Slater Sedans, and are all the rage now. They are so unoblrusive-looking with their Nile rose boc ' ics and navy-green wheels. They are made in vest-pocket editions, which can fold small enough to be conveniently carried in your coat pocket. This is especially convenient when you are abcut to be p.nched for speeding. Orvard Waldrep is a baseball player of the stellar variety. So fam:u3 has he become that his name is a household word from f)ole to pole. We wond;r how we ever thought Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth good sluggers. Monrce Abercromb!e is heavyweight champion of the world. Marion Per.rson and John Wallace featured in auto races at the State Fair, while George M:Waters amused the crowd with the antics of his aeroplane, the Potato Bug. H s most hair-raising feat is the, Jelly Roll. Boyd Crumley is the composer of that new end widaly-popjlar lyric, When You Look in the Heart of a Squash. Thelma Stacey is ccach of the girls ' basketball team at B.rminghann-Scuthern. The co-eds played Woman ' s College in Montgomery and won from ih m, 197.1 to 0. Homer Perkins is ably filling one of the largest pulpits in the United States, and Porter Florence is a missionary. How times do change! Ervin Jackson is a renowned dramatist. His latest play is Housetolet, in which he voices the modern shortage of domicilia, and how like (or ralhor unlike) our friend, Bill Shakespeare, is the famous landlord ' s soliloquy in Act III, Scene 1 : To rent, or not to rent — that is the question; Whether ' tis nobler in your home to suffer The cigar smoke and onicn-eating of an outrageous tenant. Or to turn him out into la rue. And, by opposing, end these. To lease — to buy — No more, and by a buy to say we end The H. C. L. and the thousand banes of lil e That man is heir to — ' tis a projxjsition Devoutly to be wished. To lease — to buy — To buy! Perchance to own! Ay, there ' s the rub! Just la?t week I saw a life-sire photograph of Necda Sahara, the Vamp of Seven Kingdoms, in a newspaper. She used to be Eula Pritclie ' .t before acquiring the chief vampsh;p of the world. The law firm of Thompson-Reinhart is established in the Sea Food Palace on Second Avenue. A recent case of theirs was that of J. M. Clark, who was suing Fulmer Hill lor breach of promise. It seemed that Mr. Hill borrowe d a diamond-studded match from Mr. Clark, and went so far as to give Mr. Clark a mortgage on his sugar supply. Before the date of payment transpired, Mr. Hill had consumed the sugar, thereby render- ing the mortgage ineffective, so Mr. Hill claimed. On account of the nerve-racking strain caused by the deep details of this case, it has been postponed until the fortieth of May to allow the judges to recuperate. Page fi fly -three T. F. Vardaman is commander of the East Point Typewriter Academy. Az Wilk- inson and Coleman Moughon are spending their vacation on Mars this year. A trip to Coney Island is entirely too tame for them. Myrtle Painter is touring Hawaii in the interest of the American Corps of the Hula- Hula. Bascom Hopson is aeroplane traffic cop at Cloudville Avenue and Atmo Sphere Heights. Buford Bledsoe is noted for havmg suppressed a strike of collar button makers. H. L. Moore, well-known scientist, is concentrating his attention on preparing a chart of balanced meals for the English sparrow. L. B. Strong is a performer in the Kirkland-McCleskey Zoo. A huge sign sus- pended over a tent reads: See the Big Strong Man. Only Survivor of the Great Trio — Samson, Hercules, and Strong. Phil Timberlake is writing The Evolution of a Washtub, which is appearing m installments in the Tales for Little Tots. This vivid historical novel of the didactic type is awakening the soul and spirit of America as nothmg has done since the publication of Mother Goose rhymes. E. H. Moore is a noted hypnotist, mind-reader, medium and ouija board manipulatcr. He read the future and predicted that Niagara Falls and iron sinks. Pauline Godwin is private secretary to one of Birmingham ' s billionaire jitney drivers. Eugene Waldrep ' s great epic, Ode to a Shoelace, is making him wealth y as well as famous. Joe Wheeler and E. C. Hunter are advertising agents for the Champion Theatre, while Mac Parks is on the Williams-Davis Vaudeville Circuit. O. B. Ellis is a professor of the terpsichorean art in Pushmata, Alabama. Robert Green is an expert mathematician and accountant. At present he is engaged by the B. R. L. P. to count cross-ties. Dave Evans is head of the National League for the Prevention of Class-Cutting. Clyde Propst has invented a new athletic game called Math Ball, which has been evolved in response to the pleas of many fond parents for some incentive to urge the:r children to study. This interesting game teaches every branch of math to the poor, unsuspecting child, who finds him — (or her) — self saying unconsciously: The square on the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, as a signal for the left-radical to run the spherical distance of the tangent and pass the ball through the polar triangle, thereby scoring a logarithm. Jewell Hall and G. E. Roberts, as political leaders in the State Senate, have been debating on the question: Resolved, That Yellow Is More Suitable for the State Color Than Pink. O temporal O mores!

Intercollegiate Oratoncal Association Birmingham-Southern has always been represented in the Intercollegiate Oratorical Associaticn. The association consists of Auburn, Howard, and Birmingham-Southern, and the contest comes off some time during the spring. Last year Auburn failed to send a rep.esentative, and so the battle was fought out between the representatives of Howard and Birm ' .ngham-Southern. The contest was held in the auJitorium of Howard College, and the entire student bodiei of both colleges were present. Represented by Mr. U. S. Pitts, we were able to rdd anolhcr name to our long list of winners. Mr. Pitts is a polished speaker and an orator of great ability. This year we shall have to choose another representative, as Mr. PiUs graduated last year. Quite a number will try out in the prelimniar.es for the honor cf representing our school, and we believe that one can b; picked from this number who will keep up our record of winning from Howard, and also from Auburn, if she enters the contest.

Besides, he was a stellar performer at tackle, gaining a place on the All-Stale mythical eleven. His loss will be keenly felt next season. ' Eddie Lewis (Captain-Elect) Halfback Eddie, another member of the famous Panther eleven of 1916, proved a consistent ground-gainer this year and well-deserved the honor given him by his teammates when they elected him captain of the 1920 squad. We are expecting great things of the Panthers next year under the leadership of Captain Eddie.

He ' s another Panther representative on the All-Stale team, and his experience proved invaluable to the squad. Jim Baty Fullback Jim developed into a gridiron star of the stellar variety during the past season and cov- ered himself with glory in the Panther football contests. He was a consistent ground- gainer and a bulwark on the defense throughout the season. Although a Senior, we hope hell return next year for post-grad. work. Mike Norton Fullback Mike proved his ability as a backfield man this year. He was a demon on th- defense, tackling opposing backs with all the viciousncss of a real Panther. He has at least two more years with us. and should prove one of our most valuable men in coming gridiron battles. Big HoSs GaNDY Cuanl and Tackle Big Hoss is a linesman of the first caliber and proved to be one of the mainstays oil the Panther eleven last fall, having the exclusive honor of playing in every quarter. He s an all-round athlete, not only in college sports, but a wrestler of considerable fame. Page et f-five A Football Shorty ' Propst Center Propst comes lo us from Ensley High, where he was a gridiron star. Towering over the heads of his teammates, it was easy to watch his good playing. He had a habit of reachmg over the line and breaking up the play before the opposing quarter could pass the ball to the runner. Slim ' Neese ' Left Guard Slim is a tower of strength In the line, for when the opposing backfield hits him they have about reached their journey ' s end. His greatest feat during the past season was holding, almost single-handed, the entire Howard eleven on the one-yard line for four downs. Cap Miller ' . . . . Left End Miller, shifted lo end, proved his football ability by immediately assuming a star role at the wing position, his defensive qualities standing out. He made the interference of oppo- nents useless by his effective blocking, besides occasionally grabbing a forward pass for a good gain. Buck ' Larson Halfback This is Buck ' s first year with us. He delights in tearing down the hopes of would-be stars who try lo stop him when he is carrying the ball. He rivals the speedy Buck Flowers in skirting ends, besides holding his own when the opposing backfield has posses- sion of the pigskin. Page ninety -six A ia::ii Football Jim Rogers Fullback J ' m hails from Elnsley High, this being his initial appearance in a Panther uniform. When he gets started across the line he was not easily stopped, and then not until he had made a neat gain. We are expecting him to report for duty again next season. Tanlac Burney Quarterback The sport writers hailed Tanlac as a second Rabbit Currey. a well-deserved title, as shown when he made a sensational run of ninety yards from the Icick-off in the final game of ihe season. He weighs 120 pounds, but his surplus fat doesn ' t s::em to worry him when he is running with the ball. Coop Green Left Tackle This is Coop ' s second year as a Panther, having held down a guard position on last year ' s eleven. He played a thoroughly consistent game at tackle this season, never failing to open up a hole when called upon, while proving a lough proposition for opposing lines- men fiom a defensive standpoint. ToTO Jaffe Quarterback Tolo came to Birmingham-Soulhcrn from Central High, where he made an excellent record for himself as a field general, and he continued his good work for the Panthers last season. He not only handles his tram well, but is a consistent ground-gainer on the offensive. Page nincf -scVen Football Gabby Scott Quarterback Gabby is the best quarterback that ever ran a team up and down Munger Field, having called signals for the famous 1916 grid machine. His wide experience and knowledge of the game proved mvaluable to the eleven last fall. His loss after an injury in the Howard game was keenly felt. Morrell Montgomery Right End Morrell, a product of Central High, developed wonderfully in his first year in college football, holding down a wing position for Birmingham-Southern in great style, three more years with us, and we are expecting great things of him in the future. He ha Dave Evans Right Cuard Dave showed up well in his initial appearance on the gridiron, showing ev.dences of real stuff as a linesman. He should develop into a star football performer before his college career is ended, and Birmingham-Southern followers are pinning great hopes on him for the coming season. Bob Rowe Right End Bob started the season off in grand style at right end and looked like one of the finds of the year. However, his injury in the Marion game toward the first of the season kept him out of the remaining contests. He should prove one of the slars on the eleven when next year rolls around. Page ninety-eight . , X3L_ Resume of Football I ll-, foolliall eleven representing Birmingham-Soulhern College has closed one of the most successful gridiron seasons in the history of the institution, winning four contests and losing three, two of which were by exceedingly small scores. It was a great year for the Panther. Coach Charlie Brown and his squad of gridiron warriors have deserved the praise of the football critics by iheir hard work and consistent play. The Panthers played se en games, piling up 159 points against their opponents, while only 32 counters were reg.stered against (hem. The Hamilton Aggies were the first victims of Birmingham -Southern, the Panthers winning by a 66 to score. This first game of the season showed the ability of the squad, and this was further well manifested when the strong aggregation of the University of Alabama was held to 27 points by the Gold and Black. This score was belter appreciated later on in the season when the university eleven defeated many other colleges, such as Howard, Sewanee, Marion, and M.s- sissippi, by considerably larger scores. Marion Institute and Southern Military Academy fell before the onslaught of the Panther aggrega- tion in rapid succession, Birmingham-Southern winning from the Marion cadets by a 25 to score, and from the Greensboro cadets, 28 to 0. Then came the great game of I ' le entire season — the battle wilh Howard College — -which the Panther lo5l by the margin of a touchback, enabling Howard to gain the decision by a 2 to count. It was a hard game to lose, for the Birmingham-Southern eleven staged a great fight before the final whistle blew. The Spring Hill game ended with the last loss against the Panthers, the Mobile team winning by three points, a field goal. The final score was 3 to 0. The Panthers staged a great finale to the gridiron season by trouncing the University of Chattanooga aggregation by a score of 40 to 0. The great feat of the Birmingham-Southern eleven was keeping their goal line immune from the onslaughts of their opponents, wilh the exception of the strong Alabama team. Although Spring Hill and Howard scored on the Panthers, they, like the rest of their opponents, were unable to cross the goal line.

Howard ' s Bulldog five, the time-honored rivals of Birmingham- Southern, overcame the thinly-clad Panther warriors on two occasions, but the last argu- ment on the court will ever be remembered by the battlers from East Lake. Southern Military Academy and Marion Institute were the two colleges humbled by the caged Panther. Page one hundred Basketball MiKc: Norton (Captain) Forward The vctcr;in Itader of the Panlh r cage quintet is one of the best little goal-tosiers ihal ever ambled foith on a basketball court, and it was lhi5 Norton person that deserves most of l!ie credit for ihe cage succecses of Birmingham-Southern. ' Tanlac Burney Forrvard It was one Tanlac Buiney that took upon himself the discredit of assuming the star roles in tlie major portion of the basketball arguments of the Panthers during the past winter, and the diminutive foiward filled the obligation admirably. Shorty Propst Center The elongated pivot guardian of the Birmingham-Southern cage entries covered himself with great gobs of glory when he went forth to give battle lo the opponents of the Gold and Black. He lowers high and measures up to his extremeness in cage ability. Big Hoss Gandy Guard The veteran guard of the Panther baskelball quintet displayed flashes of form in such huge proportions that he look unto himself the reputation of being one of the best defensive cage athletes that donned the abbreviated attire in the Magic City during (he past season. Greek ' Griffin Forward This thinly-clad athlete of Central High fame is perfectly at home while cavorting around on a baskelball court, and takes extreme pleasure in tossing goals with two or three opposing guards hanging on his wee frame. He ' s just there, tha sall. Coop Green Guard This warrior of rather considerable gridiron fame threw himself into the basketball game for the first time this season and immediately sprang forth as a finished product in the defend ' ng end of the cage pastime. Senator Vardaman Guard Sena ' or went forth to gain cage fame this year and was forced to accept more than he had bargained for.

The veterans who are slated for their old berths on the varsily nine are Bob Rowc and IVlike Norton, outfielders; John Bradford. John Burney, and Jack Stuart, infielders; Greek Griffin, catcher; and Eugene Malone, pitcher. From the squad of rookies who are showing the best form at the begmnmg of the season are Johnston. Freeman, and Baker, on the mfield; Propst, Speer. and Crews, outfield; Gandy, catcher; and Hodge, Crews, Speer, and Wheeler, pitchers. With a good schedule made out, the Panthers should make quite a name for them- selves on the diamond during the spring of 1920. Of the seventeen games played by the Birmmgham-Soulhern aggregation of ball- tossers during the past season, eleven were placed on the wmning side of the column, while only six con- tests resulted as defeats for the Methodists. The followers of the Gold and Black were indeed satisfied with the result of the 1919 season, and especially so because of the fact that no regular coach was available for the club. The ancient rivals of the Panther, the Bulldogs of Howard, gained the decision in three of the four encounters, but only after four hard diamond battles were fought by the two time-honored foes. The margin of one run decided each of the four tilts, two of which resulted in a score of I to 0. The last game with the Bulldogs was won by them in a ninth inning rally, with the Panthers leading throughout the cqntest until the fatal last period. Marion Institute fell before the onslaught of the Birmingham-Southern warriors of the diamond in two arguments of baseball, while the Oglethorpe University divided honors with the Panthers in a two- game series. The Anniston P ' reds met defeat at the hands of the Gold and Black athletes on six different occasions, both in Anniston and the Magic City. As a whole, the season was indeed a success. The student-coached team deserves much honor for the showing they made against nines of other schools who were well groomed in the arts of the diamond. HURRAH FOR THE PANTHERS!

T. Bradford. Tappie is wiihoui doubi the most generally liked fellow at Birmingham-Southern. He takes part in ail phases of college life and makes friends wherever he goes. Most Popular Co-Ed: Catherine Williams received this election by a hand- some majority. Her smile, her speech, her winnmg way. While all the college boys ' time away. Prettiest Co-Ed : Margaret Smoot. Where can you find more competent judges of beauty than among college men? They are the first to mark the charm of sparkling eyes, the first to note the curve of dainty lips, and the first to see the tint of rosy cheeks. Catherine Williams ran her a close race for this honor. Best-Looking Man: Frank Katzenstine. His rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes won this position for him. There was wide diversity of opinion on this point, and it was found that no two of the co-eds voted alike. Man with the Prettiest Eyes: Vaughan Howard. The color of his orbs is a navy green, which at times is changeable, often reflecting the crimson hue of his fore- lock. The combination is very pleasing, indeed, and, we are compelled to say, very rare. Biggest Spendthrift: Charles Kelly. Money bums his pccket, but may we say that his pockets have never been seriously scorched. If money talked, Chubby would undoubtedly be a perpetual motion talking machine. Biggest Liar: J. M. Metcalf. He is the most consistent liar on the Hill, having been elected to this position last year. He is president of the firm, A Lias and H(E). Liza, which, under his efficient management, is doing a magnificent business. Man with the Best Voice: A. L. Branscomb was elected almost unanimously. His rich, mellow bass is charming in its power and has won for him most enthusiastic applause. Man with the Biggest Foot: Vaughan Howard. So strong is the force of habit that Vaughan was again elected to this position. His feet are so large that he has to put his pants on over his head and shine his shoes in sect:ons. Man with the Brightest Future: Albert Branscomb. He hcs great possi- bilities wrapped up in him. but as yet they are wrapped up. We feel su.e, however, that he will ba successful in whatever he undertakes, if it is noth:n,g more than the cd tmg of college papers. Biggest Eater: Charlie Maxwell. Our only and original Charlie put the blocks to all would-be aspirants for this honor. He has an appeti ' e as lasting as the day is long and a skin that stretches like India rubber. H ' s pupils are untiring in their efforts to equal their master, but to no avail, as he always takes off the bacon. Pap.e one httnthetl icven Biggest Loafer: Brandt Whatley. He has reduced, or rather raised, loafing to a science. He is always on the job on the Science Hall steps, under the shade of The Old Apple Tree, or on Crooks ' Corner. Biggest Ladies ' Man: Beauregard Bagley. The mere rustle of a dress sets him wild, and the sound of a feminine voice or the sight of a feminine face causes him to utter the wildest ejaculations of joy. Biggest Sleeper: J. M. Baty. He wooes the gentle Morpheus with all the zeal and earnestness of a lover, and in her arms he finds joy and happiness in forgetting the cares and troubles of a student ' s existence. Best Orator: J. F. Sparks. Have you ever heard him speak at a mass-meeting, and then seen him take a collection? If you have, you will not doubt the justice of this ballot. His oratory draws the money from your pocket, but you may be sure that it is for a good cause. Ugliest Man: J. W. de Yampert. Our own American Beauty Buddie Wam- pus was re-elected, despite the fact that he had some close rivals. How can he restrain the tears wh en he gazes at his own phiz in the mirror! Most Popular Athlete: John Bumey. Shooting goals and meadow mayon- naise both seem to come natural with him. He is on every team the college puts out, playing football, basketball and baseball with equal skill, and starring in them all. Best Writer: Albert Branscomb. The editor of our college paper was almost unanimously the choice of the student body for this position. The Cold and Blacl( is one of the livest, best-written college papers we know, due largely to the editorship of our best writer. Most Popular Professor: F. L. Owsley. Professor Owsley has been with us only one year, but in that time he has become popular enough to be easily the favorite on this ballot. His genial nature and his interest in athletics, as well as all other student activities, have made him our most popular professor. Freshest RaT: Rat Hutto. He is so green that some of the professors have become color-blind from looking at him, and so fresh that we are afraid he will spoil when warm weather comes. Most Desperately in Love: Austin Cain. It became necessary to resort to the wall when our tally sheet ran out, but when the dust from the close race cleared away Austin, by voting for himself, was one lap ahead. We would name the girl, but we do not like to be called Rip Van Winkle for being so far behind him in his mad race of love. Man with the Best Line: Eugene Malone. Here he comes down the hall now, with his mouth going like a Ladies ' Aid Society meeting. If you are thinking of having your house heated, don ' t fail to see Sophie before letting your contract. Jack Stuart was a worthy competitor and deserved every vote he polled.

Beauregard: I hear the men are going to wear clothes to match their ha r th.s spring. Sophie : That ' ll be rather cool for Dr. Richards;n, won ' t it? There is meter in poetry.

He bored away for half a day. And finally broke his bill. Page one hundred eleven We Wonder How Tappie will look in cap and gown. And why Sophie doesn ' t join the circus as a clown. What makes Rat Allgood ' s hair so red, And how Jim Baty can lie so long in bed. How Metcalf would look wearing a smile, doncher know. And what makes Anna so crazy about Bob Rowe. How Lois can loaf twenty-six hours a day. And Jack shoot bull until it really doesn ' t pay. When Buddie looks in the mirror, O my! How can he keep the tears from his eye? How Charlie can eat two dozen biscuits and several bowls of hash. And still with the ladies make such a mash. Why All-State Baker has such soft, dreamy eyes. And Dana, when he looks at Catherine, always sighs. All this I wonder, but this much I know: I ' ll whip the man that says it isn ' t so.

Never put off till tomorrow what you want to sleep in tonight. Health hint: Open the window and throw your chest out. Did you ever blow your nose and see the train start? Hell is paved with good intentions — also asbestos. The favorite excursion of some people is to go from bad to worse. The difference between a great opportunity and a cat is that the cat comes back.

They talked of punts and drop-kicks, but found il rather tame, Till Cupid put his noseguard on and bulled in the game. Quoth he: It ' s mighty funny if I don ' l arrange a match. So he lined the couple up and made them toe the scratch; The youth was growing nervous neath the weight of new-found bliss. And he kind of thought the scrimmage ought to end up with a kiss. He charged upon the center and tackled left and right, And the way he held the chair for downs was simply out of sight; He tried an osculation — just an amateur affair — But lost it in a fumble and instead it struck the air. Then he landed on her ear, and heard the maiden say: You ' re penalized for holding; likewise for offside play. With set teeth he tried another, this time succeed. ng fine. For he scored an easy touchdown on the crimson two-yard l.ne. As they sat there by the grate, Communing soul to soul. The parlor door swung open. And her father kicked the goal. Selected.
