This is LA REJ ' UE for 1941 .... a summary of an Ameri- can campus at peace .... issued by Cecil Parson, Editor, and William F. Vance, Business Manager, who sought to picture our year at its highest, caught at the boiling point before the plastic lives of individ- uals have solidified into their own individual ruts of living. Here is La Revue .... DR. EOLINE WALLACE MOORE dedicated for the thousands of girls who have passed through the College under her guidance and whose problems have received understanding sym- pathy from the retired Dean of Women ; for those who know her as friend, companion, and worker un- afraid toward the cause of intelli- gent education, we dedicate the 1941 La Revue to Doctor Eoline Wallace Moore. [ ' ] HONORING I ' oSEY Returning from his year ' s sabbatical in Hawaii, where the sentiment was about (Hvicled as to whether the students should or should not wear shoes to the University, Dr. Walter Brownlow Posey reassumed his chairmanship of the Division of Social Sciences. Noted for his long-winded but thought-provoking method of questioning students, a keen mind, and a wife who should have been a writer, he scares Fresh- men to jitters by brandishing class-cards, be- fore them each time one bobbles an answer. POOR Although he will tell you that in his opin- ion there is no oil in Alabama, Dr. Russell S. Poor this year condescended to lead a group of experts in search of the liquid. He came back with an I-told-you-so smile. The head of the Division of Natural Sciences covers a lot of ground in his geological rock- liunting, but students usually toss bouquets instead of pebbles at his classroom method because he can keep them awake without their regretting it. McWILLIAMS The big subject in the mind of Mr. Mc- VVillianis is no longer Chaucer ' s astrological computations or the power of the comita- tus in Beazvulf. No. Richebourg Gaillard, Junior, sends him to class these days with such astounding statements as : A child cannot focus its eyes until it is several weeks old. Between such statements, Richebourg. vSr., heads the Humanities Division. [«] SOME MEN OF THE YEAR STUART Better known as Jack, George Iv. Stuart, Jr., has in his three years at ' Soutiiern made more friends and (next to Mr. Hunt) told more stories than anyone else around. Giving up a good legal practice and political future because he likes to be around college students, the Assistant to the President and general liaison officer of the College keeps the wheels turning smoothly. To him goes the honor of making friends because he likes to make friends, not because he can use them for stepladders to something else. ABHRNETHY This fastest-talking, fastest-moving man on the campus has, as you probably suspect, accomplished things in a hurry. Between teaching English, American Lit, South Today broadcasts, and collabora- tions on Trial Bv Jur . he has brought the College Theatre to a high place among such workshops in the South with this year ' s productions of Night Must Fall and Craig ' s Wife. In addition to getting married within the last year, he received his doctorate from Vanderbilt University. ANDERSON With a College Choir noted over the South for its ability to make real music, Mr. Raymond F. Anderson this year branched out and produced Sullivan ' s operetta. Trial By Jury. That was in the Fall. Winter brought him the distinc- tion of leading the Birmingham Music Club Chorus and the Choir with the Bir- mingham Civic Symphony for the second straight year. Spring brought the an- nual tour ; this time they went East and broadcast over a national hook-up from Washington. s. La r ROM the President to the lowhest janitor; from Doctors of Philosophy down to Shine who makes the best waffles in the country, the men who make the College are a smoothly tunctiuninti ' organism. To them we go to pay our bills, api eal for morato riums, and receive the awful news about grades.

They hide our foibles, encourage our originality, and act as safety valves for our hairbrained ideas. Under them the student bodies of succeeding generations flow past, leaving these men to observe and draw conclusions from the mobile stream of maturing human beings whose attitudes today fore- cast America ' s trends tomorrow. The entire group is devoted to the single ideal of the liberal arts college : to teach enlightenment and independence in order that enlightenment and independence may help the student learn for himself the joy of living. the College year - DR. RAYMOND ROSS PATY PRESIDENT PaTy this year took a busman ' s holiday when he accepted a position on the Draft Board : he was a brigade signal officer at Fort Knox, Kentucky, in World War I. From the time when he had to fight for a place at the table with eight other Irish youngsters, Doctor Paty has been preparing himself for better things. After running the gamut of Emory, Columbia, and the University of Chicago, he fol- lowed various and interesting pursuits : social work, teaching (Latin, Bible, English, math, and religious education). Dean of Men at Emory, Director of the NYA for Georgia, and Director of Fellowships for the Julius Rosenwald Fund. If you ever wonder where this easygoing e.xecutive receives inspiration for his infectious laugh and ability to pitch horseshoes without removing the horses, take a look at his family. Foremost in pep and grace is the former Adelaide Martha Pund, of Augusta, Georgia. But so close behind their mother that they could hardly be called seconds come Martha Anne. Mary Pund, and Jane Muse. Al- though only one of the Three Sisters graces college classes, the other two are old enough to know that they have a controlling interest in the matter. President Raymond Ross Paty MOST of Dean Dorothy Webb ' s life has l)een spent on or near a college campus. Her father being president of Randolph- Macon, she was well acquainted with that campus and faculty. She attended Bell- buckle for her prep work and later Ran- dolph-Macon, where she finished her col- lege work. Chief among her duties as Dean of Women are ironing out intra- and inter- sorority difficulties and caring for out-of- town girls, which she does with efficient gusto. Her hobby : collecting bottles and teaching co-eds to knit.

HALE Here ' s a j cntlenian whom all Freshmen ha e a horror of meeting; but after that first terrible experience they find that they have been depending too much on imagination and hearsay. Wyatt Walker Hale is one of the friendliest men on the Hilltoj). Having had seven year ' s experience at his post, he holds down all loose ends as Dean and Registrar. An old hand at meeting jaeople, he e -en sold shoes and insurance ]irior to entering college. After graduation, he went on to the higher learning at Columbia and the University of Minnesota. Throughout his career he has stuck to his one purpose of becoming an efficient educator. Last year he roamed into the classrooms and executive of- fices of many another institution seeking ways of improving his own backyard. Madelyn Thomas Hale also throws a lot of sunlight on the cold hard facts in the background of the Registrar ' s office. A native of Gadsden, Alaliama, Dean Hale has been actively asso- ciated with the College since 1923. [14] -5P =- MR. YEILDINC r HIS human dynamo has been mak- ing budgets for Birmingham- Southern for fourteen years. A grad- uate of ' Southern, Newman Manly Yeilding was born in Birmingham on March 1. 1900. He yelled Yea, Central ! which was the Phillips High School of a score of years ago. While at ' Southern he was active in and out of classes ; in his Senior year he became business manager of the college paper. In 1922 he tucked his A. B. in Social Studies into the family trunk and pitched in to make the busi- ness of the family concern run more smoothly. Then, after persuading them that they could get along with- out him, he returned to the Hilltop and joined the faculty as Bursar. Since that time he has acquired the reputation for being a very tough gen- tleman v ' here money is concerned. Some have even hinted that, when- ever Mr. Yeilding greets a person, he absentmindedly extends his hand with palm up; but we think that is carry- ing matters too far. He married Miss Annie Lou Fletcher, and they have three children. Manly, Fletcher, and Anne. [15] Bursar Nkvv.ma.n ' IManly Yeilding PROFS IN A POTPOURRI A friend in a pinch and an enemy in fnn is the premier writing man of the faculty. James Saxon Chil- ders injects the writing habit into his proteges with the same tough dispatch of an editor maihng a re- jection shp: Mniiibo Jumbo, Es- quire came off the presses in May. It ' s the Great White Chief at his veddv, veddv best, suh. E.(gbert) Sydnor Ownbey was one of the youngest men ever to be- come a Ph.D. at Vanderbilt Uni- versity. His daughter wields a mean mentality too ; she can read French and isn ' t in tlie first grade yet. So youthful did Dr. Ownbey look before taking over Shake- speare at ' Southern that the Presi- dent feared people might think him too young. Shuttling back and forth between Havana and Birmingliam is the habit of Sciior Harry F. McNeel. A scholarly Christian gentleman, his interest in students only be- gins in the classroom, actually doesn ' t end until they ' re dead. Buenos dias and hasia manaita are his trademarks. Leon F. Sensabaugh, authority on political science, international rela- tions, and Latin America, is also the school ' s number one diplomat. Once, in a discussion about Peru, the learned Doctor decided to give his opinion about the country. Hes- itantly, he asked, Is there a Pe- ruvian in the room ? ' No reply. Reassured, Dr. Sensabaugh spoke freely. Farmer-boy Judson C. (Jake) Ward sneaked into the History Department this year fresh from Gawjuh and Emory University. He brought enough mischief and opin- ions to erect spines of professorial die - hards for months ; but he brought, too, pep and a comfort- able-looking stomach. Hair more red than bronze, freckles, and ears. The Phi Beta Kappa key is no more indicative of Dr. Tower than the coke. He ' s been spreading his Seattle accent around the Geog- raphy Department for several years now. Originator of the much- discussed South Today course, and radio producer, he likes co-eds and super-science thrillers. . mong the outstanding develop- ments of the campus year was the College Orchestra under the mies- tro-ship of Gwyn S. McPeek. Graduated from Ohio with honors, he brought his talents South. The College Orchestra became his spe- cial baby, and its spring concert brought gratifying music to the Hill . t last Dr. Hawk broke down and let a little culture seep into the hard-boiled Economics Department. D. Phillip Beaudry let it be known early that he read things besides statistics. . Harvard man. Dr. Beaudry is one of those people who artue soundly because he doesn ' t open his mouth until he knows he ' s 1 ight enough to win. Title of James H. Kincaid is ' In- structor in Biology, but politic- ians know him as the man to see whtn there ' s a sign to be painted for spring elections. Perhaps the most publicized piece of work he did was to rescue the editors of Quad and paint the pasteboard through which cover-girl Paty stepped. Most colorful of classroom char- acters is Robert S. Whitehouse, who has been known to stand on his desk and threaten to wring necks collectively and individually if someone didn ' t please conjugate habeii correctly. On the campus, however, the linguist is the mildest of people. |ir] Professor Felix Robb, of the Eng- lish Department, is an old ' South- ern man, having set the scholastic side of the Hill afire several years ago. No w, in addition to teach- ing and things, he spends his time keeping up with the film library, which has spread out to serve most of central Alabama. French and France are the life of Anthony Constans. Wearer of the Croix de Guerre from World War I, he refights every battle from Syria to the Cafeteria. One student said of him, Di . Constans can teach more French in the last five minutes of class than the whole Sorbonne. , mffUT THE E X E C U T O c John Howard---- Howell Hkflin.. Charles West...

The Execu- tive Council finally centered the gov- erning authority of students into one responsibility. Such an arrangement abolished much of the clumsy mis-legislation in student government which cluttered up former attempts at solving stu- dent problems. With the Executive Council, decisions covering the entire campus can be reached speedily and « ' ith(iut red ta]ie. Nor were C(juncillors idle under the new set-uj). Although few legislative changes were made, the ladies and gentlemen of the Gavel sponsored many a campus achievement. There was May Day, which they engineered completely with the sustaining assist- ance of Miss Turner. They brought forth the demand that May Day take itself outdoors where May should be, and separated the tradition from younger Cat ' s Paw. In February their annual dance jirovided another surcease from legislative rigors. Under the leadership of Prexy Howard, the governing body func- tioned well. Few amendments wrecked tlie rather pitted Constitution. Prob- ably the greatest job achieved was the allocation of six hundred dollars an- nually to Quad baby publication of the campus. Meeting quietly in the Faculty- Trustee Room on the second floor of Munger, the Executive Council func- tioned so smoothly, so efficiently, that few realized its w irk was going on until some achievement was thrown at the students. With it in 1940-41, the history of Co-Ed government on the Hilltop reached a new perfection. [19] [■DKS: ' - .

Substance of thinking and the friction of young minds coming in contact remove veils which formerly obscured the picture of events. There is no paucity of words in the editorial columns or the cafeteria bull-sessions, but ideas and convictions follow more slowly. Once convinced, the student finds his voice. Slowly and painfully, his thinking already is moulding him into the man whose mind in the future cannot change abruptly. the Campus year i.

An unusual number of students took part in jmlilication of the paper. One little matter that helped the popu- larity of the News office was the fact that typewriters and paper were al- ways handy to anyone who wanted to type off that correspondence or those term papers. Not only did many students become attached to the typewriters — one of the staff typewriters became attached to somebody, and as yet hasn ' t been located. With the three machines re- maining, both publications have man- aged to meet most deadlines. The usual staff-made photos went into the paper this year, with photog- raphers Cully and Cranshaw on the job. The jiaper li ed this year during a hectic period of national and interna- tional affairs. Editor Frank Cash left the campus before completing the year ' s work to join the military serv- ice, leaving the paj er in mid-air until Editor Sammy Pruett took over. Uncle Sam kept stepping nearer the conflict, and before the year was out, voices of educators were heard raised against the practice of deferring col- lege students from conscription until the end of the term. BUSINESS MAN Toni Dili ' s beginniiig-of-the-year lament was that, unless some- liody. somewhere, came up with some money, the Hilltop A ' civs would degenerate into a handbill. It came out as an extra handbill. all right, during the g ' m drive — but Dill distriliuted bonuses at the end of the year.

Eight hundred copies sold represent the wid- est circulation of an annual ever to come from the Hill- top. At the beginning of the year, the Editors found them- selves in the smallest cubicle ot the place wliere Townsend holds his journalism classes.

Big moments of the year were the Beauty Parade, the first all-night ses- sion with Bob Faerber, the stupen- dous write-ups of Asst. Ed.

Night Must Fall suffered slight- ly from inadequate characterizations, a lighting miscue or so ; but otherwise the production was sleek and complete. Probably the greatest deficiency of both Night Must Fall and the spring- production, Craig ' s Wife, lay in the audience : Dr. Ab ' s ambition is to It ' s now Doctor Ab. teach a cnurse in the understanding and appreciation of the drama pitched to the college level.

A simple, over- Teclinician extraordinary — To. i my Rv. n furnished set provided an atmosphere precisely suited to the stuffy English household invaded by the bland young- adventurer in emotions. Premier acting performances of Craig ' s Wife were turned in by Kath- erine Kirk in the lead, supixjrted by Mary Garrett and Eugenia Dabney. Kirk ' s sua ' e handling of the inner battle between a desire to have secur- ity at the expense of love and a man ' s desire for happiness in his own home reflected professional experience. Led by veteran Tommy Ryan, the stage technicians ])robably did the most completely satisfactory job of the College Theatre. These unsung liack-of-the-boards heroes and hero- ines include the ubiquitous Rebecca Gray, Jemmy McAdory, Evelyn Cur- tis, bookholder Jenny Mae Webb, a host of others in make-up crew, lights, cariientering, and the venera- ble Tonimv. n IHiffTYTUr VL C O L L E G l wdi vices Mr. Raymond F.

Anderson brought his songsters to a spot in the fore- front of similar groups in the South. The Choir is no longer a group which must comb the sticks for talent. Under Mr. An- derson ' s supervision and with the able as- sistance of Mr. Gwynn S. McPeek, it reached a point where the choristers came to the Choir. Their trip this year took them to Washington and points East, where they aired themselves over a na- tional hookup.

This year they carried on by ushering the Town Hall Series, jointly spon- sored by the College and the American Asso- ciation of University Women. Another job not half so easy as it looks is decorating Stock- ham at Christmastime ; this task ODK accom- plished down to the last red ribbon. Climax of their campus activities came when they pitched in with Mortar Board and brought hundreds of high school seniors from the Bir- mingham district to the campus for a Career Conference. Outstanding leaders of the sur- rounding region — industrialists, judges, jour- nalists and doctors — made it an event worth while. Then, in March, President Frank Dominick and several of the bovs visited the Southwide Conference at LSU. Outstanding social event of the year was the Alumni Pianquet on April 3.5.

Beginning with a hamburger fry, for which out-of- town freshmen co-eds were transported to the wilds of Roebuck, the Scholarship, Character, Leadership and Service girls kept themselves busy until the scroll un- rolled in April to reveal their successors. Main item on their philanthropy list was the annual Career Conference, in which they were joined by their counterparts, the O. D. K. ' s, for the first time. Together the leadership groups brought over two hun- dred high school seniors to the Hilltop campus to plan all kinds of futures from metallurgy to marriage. In January, they presented Mrs. Moore reviewing Leila Warren ' s Alabama chron- icle, Fouiuialion Stoiic, for the benefit of local clubwomen. Cutest trick of the year was the 01d-l ' ' ashic)ned movie, presented for money-making jiurposcs, which inspired dignified Mortar Boarders to dress in bus- tles and button shoes in order to entice the customers. Eight new members took over when the}- lighted their candles in chapel in April, and competent President Ruth IBell and ' her col- leagues retired to live on the laurels of a well-earned rest.

Phi ]3eta Kappa, premier national honorary scho- lastic fraternity, came to the Birminghani-Southern Campus in 1937.

True to the Y tradition established two Septembers ago, they brought out the Campus Handljook for Freshmen. Still more true-to-form were their speakers: outstanding proponents of labor, industry, religion and politics trod the Monday- morning boards in Munger to the tune of Y-applause. Among other program features were stu- dent conducted forums on world and re- gional events, discussions by various types of radicals and conservatives on the can- didates for President of the United States, and their distinct contribution to the relig- ious temjio of the campus.

In September this efficiently functioning I group of girls sponsored a I ' riendship Week in which Y members had everybody smiling at everybody else. Climaxing this you-love-me-and-I-love-you affair with a big Student Night, most of the participants forgot to call curfew on their good will ruid are still smiling. The girls have also helped the students gyp Deacon out of several unearned pen- nies by conducting a book exchange where volumes were at base and not face value. Under the leadership of petite Prexy Dor- othv Trotter, the program has been made more interesting and effective by Interest Group meetings in which the girls covered everything from reading and campus ethics to social prolilems and British War Relief. Members taught the campus some fancy stepping and heel-clicking at the Student Night jamboree — not jitterbugging, but folk-dancing. With no dearth of duties and Vice-Presidents, they demonstrated their usefulness by helping needy families at Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Dr. Harold Hutson and a group of interested students gathered in the Doctor ' s study to talk about religion. Up- shot of successive meetings was Chi Sigma Phi, a club formed exclu- sively to further a spirit of religious fellowship on the campus. For more than a year now this small group has been adding its bit to Southern ' s spiritual life. Their informal meetings each Mon- ' day in Stockham Club Room furnished relief from the more formal Chapel Services and the more academic religious meetings held by the YMCA. The high-church .group was satisfied in ritualistic initia- tion and worship services. Those less formally inclined were pleased with the inspiration afforded by the programs and speakers. All enjoy the bull sessions that conclude each meeting. Almost every phase of religious life and activity have been repre- sented on their programs this year. For those who like more action with their religion several interest groups consume their energies. Those interested in social service vis- ited the community centers, helped at welfare a.gencies, worked at local community houses, directed recreational programs and made them- selves generally tiseful. A drama group read good plays and planned productions for campus, church, and radio. Others served as a talent exchan.ge, supplying speakers, teachers, and preachers for churches over the city. From one standpoint they were unicjue : they preserved the only fraternal bond remaining between Birmingham-Southern and Howard. Durin.g the year they exchanged programs, banquets, and parties with a similar group on the Crimson campus across town. Chi Sigma Phi is making a distinctive contribution to the religious tenor of the camjnis, not only for individual members but for the cam- pus as a whole. Quietly they work out a way of life on the very premise upon which Birmingham-Southern is founded.

Jud- son LeCroy, was the addition of provoca- tively pudgy faculty member Judson C. (Jake) Ward. Chief contribution of the Baptists, however, was the installation of a morning watch each day before the begin- ning of first i)eriod classes, for both stu- dents and instructors. Now in its fourth year, this group is progressing nicely in alien ground.

Campus Bosses Vance, Heflin, Liles and Bishop made re- vealing contacts with nurses from Birming- ham to Cincinnati. Their cards poured in daily, but debate seemed secondary : they never mentioned it. Officers of Tau Kappa Alpha automati- cally control the non-honorary, wide-open Varsity Debate across the way. One of the great trends now noticeable in debating circles is the increasing predominance of women in the group. The debaters shudder in their shoes to think that in some future year women will be taking the trip around the country while the boys stay home — as they should. OFFICERS William F.

A ' s and aspirants, the entire organization is com- pletely under the supervision of the debating honorary. The T. K. A. tongue twisters control everything from the President to the FVeshman team. But Varsity Debate takes over all home defenses while the lucky Hilltop four art debating in other citadels throughout the country. The 1941 season saw a few more women creep into the hallowed but dwind- ling ranks of public speaking, a few less listeners creep out of auditoriums liefore the final rebuttal. Varsity Debate ' s big chance comes each year when visiting teams climb the Hill, in- dulge in free feeds off the Deacon, besport themselves in the sumptuous hospitahty of Andrews. The talkative Hilltoppers. under these condition, show loquacious collegians from other regions the best that the Deacon has to offer — and a lot more than the Deke would like to offer. Within the last three or four years under Dr. Evans ' leadership, the teams have again begun to wake up the Hill to the lost art of sincere public speaking. H the success of local teams has seemed more marked than usual lately, the people of both Varsity De- bate can point out the man who is solely responsible. To Dr. Marsee Fred Evans, debaters and Hilltoppers alike owe a great deal more than they can give him. Dr. Evans ' chief appeal as a leader of de- bate lies in his trusting to the team itself to make its own decisions, select an itinerary within reach of budget and imaginations of the luck - travelers. His debate teams leave for a trip imbued with much of the Evans clan and aggressiveness of approach. VARSITY DEBATE i THETA SIGMA LAMBDA THIS honorary mathematical group has few social functions, but when they give one the whole campus knows about it. Their chief interests are sewed up in comi licated astronomical observations, dis- cussions on algebraic formulae, and sallies into mathematic possibilities. Since Theta Sigma Lambda honors all who make a B average in math, the devotees of fact ha ' e a field day at their meetings, which are held once a month. Here there is little play, plenty of deep dis- cussion into all kinds of dimensions by speakers who know their digits. But President Dominick ' s boys and girls gave two whizzing good entertainments this year. In the fall was the Freshman Party — not just an ordinary affair of vacuous bows and kow-tows, but a party where the games hinged on differential wizardry, algebraic soup with pi for dessert. In addition they gave a skit and a play. That probably left the novitiates wishing they could get back to addition and sub- traction. But with such Professors as Malone, Glenn, Moore, Webb, Wil- more, Webb, and Harris to cook up the fireworks, the initiation pro- vided more thrills than ever. The math honoraries event went so far as to hold an open house for a Sunday afternoon tea in Stockham. But the big event is their spring picnic. Admittedly the most publicized picnic of the school year, the math affair lasts all day and covers every phase of physical activity. It ' s so good that the members keep talking of the last one until next year ' s comes around. 43] MEMBERS LuKU Austin Michael Baranelli Alene Belcher Frances Blake OuiDA Blackerby Shulamith Block Tom Cleveland Lucille Cox Carl CulvErhouse Earle CulvErhouse Sarah Douglas John Drury Addie Lee Dunn Virginia Evins James Fex Jane Frazier Emmett Gibbs Jean Glover Ila Glover Hugh Hawk Tom Herndon Arthur Horton Wiley Livingston Billy McCullough Ed Meehan Howard Moore Claire Morrison Clarence Rainwater Nora Savio Edward Sears Clementine ShurbET Walter Snow Tom Thompson Junius Verchot Dick Waters Howard Young O F F C E R S Frank Dominick- Jesse Bates Betty Ann Hard_.

These twenty-one girls who make up Amazons have been in a backward mood all year. Just to prove it, they gave another of their annual reverse dances in February. P)eauties Howell Heflin and Ford McDon- ald kept the stag lines humming love tunes all evening — except that this stag line was a hag line, with the women doing the break- ing. Just t i spruce events up the Big Women indulged in carrot corsages and be- wigged football heroes to entice their men. With such beauties as Joanna Thorpe, Mary Penruddocke and Dorothy Irving serving in a most formal style, there was nothing reversed about the tea which the group gave this spring in Stockham. The women put themselves back in their places, and each sorority engaged in the highly feminine pastime of trying to outcrow the others on the subject of who did the most work. In any case, Amazons emerged with the wreath for having given the prettiest tea of the year.

Of the main selections last year, two had transferred to the L ' ni -er- sity of Ala bama, one had graduated, and one did not return to scrfol W[ the second semester. 5utW)ereMrf re in e g l l9 ip ffr the eve than one at tn st suspectedT and in |anua r -. vhen almost sixty beauties stepi ed across the boards to oriental tunes in the Sultan ' s pal- ace, the judges had a hard time. They picked seventeen which, with the full-page beauties remaining from last year, raised the final judging to twenty. It has become a policy of the editors to send the full-page beauties of one year into the finals on the following year, regardless of judges ' deci- sions. Those you find here are the favorites, the personalities, and sometimes the oddities of the campus. Beauties Jolly Robin Farrber WITH all tai chands working at the l)oint of exhaustion, sixty beauties paraded before the Sultan one night in January in the first Beauty Parade to re(jnire a script. The whole show was a new idea, except for the beauties. Selection of entrants was democratically left to or- ganizations and individuals showing- enough interest to want beauties in the parade. The show itself was the com- bined ideas of Rebecca Gray, Doctor Abernethy, with the staff working up details. In keeping with the beauties, T H E B E the show was to be a sumptions affair, with a Sultan giving the women the once-over as they crossed beneath the canopy, before the exotic fans of half- nude Nubians recruited from Smithfield Court. Came The Day, to find that Sultan Hatcher had conveniently lost his script. One was hastily patched up to fill in and the innuendoes filled enough gaps to keep the audience amused. The girls from the College Theatre came over and worked from dawn to miflnight. Rebecca Gray was every- where at once, her o -ersize coveralls flit- ting up and down ladders, to the switch- board, to the dais. She directed every- body, and Tommy Ryan came over to act as Consulting Director. Also-flits were Jennie Mae Webb and Evelyn Curtis, who finished out the coverall trio. Hardboiled and convincing as the Sul- tan ' s Wife Number One, Eugenia Dabney lent her accents to a convincing- performance. She finished the show, you remember, by catching the Sultan redhanded. It was a day which every- one concerned was glad to see end. When the beauties marched, it seemed to those who had worked for weeks that this presentation was just the anticlimax, but the judges furnished room for further comment by omitting some beauties which, by popular demand, you ' ll find in the following section. [54 AUTY PARADE La Rcz ' iic establishes this precedent: henceforth, all beanties g ' iven full pages one year will be eligible for the final judging the following year, provided they appear in the Beauty Parade. Beauties coming under that ruling this year were Marjorie Jean Bevis, Mary Harris, a n d Marion Bumgardner. (Belles and Pomcgrauafcs.) Mary Harris declined because she is out of school, and Marion Bumgardner did not submit a picture. Another selected will not. appear because she dropped out of school in the Spring. Picker of this year ' s beauties is a man well-known to all editors of annuals in the South. Through his hands go pic- tures of beauties from Alabama, Mis- sissippi, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and the Southeast. He picked them from the standpoint of natural beauty, and technical excellence. We give you the biggest tale-teller in the United States : cherubic Robin Faerber.

Under the forceful leadership of John Huddles- ton they did a good job of revising the rush rules, putting some teeth into them and setting a precedent that shouM clear up most of the dif- ficulties arising out of Rush Week. Another innovation was the Interfraternity Pledge Council. This group works in conjunction with the senior members in regulating fra- ternity life on the campus. Hoping to develop the collegiate atmosphere of the Hilltop, they made headway on the long-discussed problem of rat rules . Among the outstanding parties given at ' Southern were the Inter- fraternity Council steak fry in October, and the dance in November. The Pledge Council emulated their big brothers by giving a dance of their own. Back : ( left to right) Liles. Grah- am. Hcflin, Black- IIIOII Center: Malonc. Gordon. i nllhi.t.

The honorary fraternities are well represented with them, especially Kenneth Liles. who has a habit of collecting odd keys. Associate brain- trusters are Don Brabston and Hugh Hawk, who keep all the budding economists in line by their endeavors in that department. They are not only bookworms, but do all right in publications, too. They lay claim to the editorship of La Revue ; the Assistant Edi- torship is held down l)v Walter Anderson, with Don Brabston handy-manning. Athletically speaking, they momentarily held the two high-point men in the intramural sports rating, with liullet Brabston and Hulysses Hawk. These two were great mainstays in the football machine which last fail captured fourth place in a field of seven competitors. Donald Campbell Brabston and Cecil Parson occupy seats together in the ranks of Omicron Delta Kappa and Phi Beta Kappa, while Brab- ston kept the till for the Interfraternity Council. Their thirty-two members and pledges are a social crew, and many a noble pink tea can attest to their prowess. The pledges are led by Charles Hill, and the Most Worshipful Cup Po ' .isher is Bamniie Boy I aurence Church. They gave some parties. In order of fame and the quality of their incense, they were : the murder dance, the pledge party, the Christ- mas party, and the Annual Dance of the May. Smaller celebrations included hayrides, steak fries, and the old custom of the house dance every Friday night.

They started off the formal dance season with their annual fiesta at the Pickwick last December. Their Bowery party, complete with thugs, pickpockets, triggermen, and all the other delightful atmosphere of that part of society, was quite a success, and the Wild West party, featuring a Greek chorus of Indians, was not far behind. Another bright spot in the social calendar was the farmer-farmerette affair, where even the cows felt at home. Another innovation was the practice of send- ing representatives to the chapters of other Southern schools at the time of their annual dance. This has done much to strengthen re- lations between the various chapters. Campusly speaking, they have done all right, too. Two of their embryonic medicos, Prexy James Walker and Bill Pardue, were in Skull Bones this year. Dick Waters, the science shark, lent his genius to Theta Chi Delta and Theta Sigma Lambda. Don Winfield was vice- president of the Junior Class as well as a meml er of Pi Delta Psi. He also was the chief vocalizer for the group, yodeling with the Col- lege Glee Club. Four members of the college facultv are Beta Kappas of yore. Dr. J. E. Bathurst is the national vice-president. Also in the alumni froup are Dr. H. H. Hutson, professor of Re- ligion ; Mr. J. H. Coulliette, professor of Phys- ics ; and Mr. G. S. McPeek. The boys are especially proud of Mr. McPeek, who was the first music major to graduate from Ohio State University with high honors. Last summer Psi chapter was well repre- sented at the Beta Kappa National Convention held in Indianapolis, Indiana. Those worthy brothers present from the Hilltop were James Walker, Bill Pardue, and Dr. Bathurst. Also present were Orville Lawson, editor of the Beta Kappa Journal, and Karl Thelander, Province Counsellor, both of whom are gradu- ates of Southern and alumni of the Psi chap- ter. At the convention Dr. Bathurst received the grand promotion from Grand Historian to National Vice-President.

They swept three four-year scholarship winners into the fold ; and the result was that, with the aid of Pledges Robert Mowr)-, Orion Truss, and Troy Thomp- son, the fraternit} ' had climbed from bottom to top of the Dean ' s scholarship list. Politically, the boys are still politicians. In addition to managing the annual for his sec- ond year, Boss Bill ' ance held sundry posts in Tau Kappa Alpha, ODK, the Y-Cabinet, clc, and we mean el cetera. According to activities listed. John Huddleston, Carroll Truss, and ' i iam F. Vance in the order named ran all organizations on the campus except Amazons. With Nance and Truss in ODK and the N ' -Cabinet, Huddleston presid- ing over the Interfraternity Council and ably assisting in sundry affairs like the Executive Council, Skull and Bones, La Revue, Toreadors and International Relations, it is little wonder that one of them made Ulio ' s Who in American Colleges and Uniz ' crsitics. Athletically, you don ' t hear the Delta Sigs bragging, but they copped second place in volley ball. Socially, you hear a great deal ; there were the usual innumerable parties punc- tuated by their Founder ' s Day Banquet in De- cember, and brought to a finish with the Annual Dance on April K. Much of the success of this revamped group is due to the efforts of Prexy Carroll Truss, who did a believe-it-or-not in making pedants of politicians.

With over fifty members and pledges to draw from, and sparked by their all-around star, Tom Cleveland, the Crimson and Old Gold has marched to championships in volley- hall, horseshoes, basketball, and their third suc- cessive football title. Laney Cowan received a Sport Manager ' s Letter in horseshoes, and Pledge Bob Bragan is the regular shortstop for the Philadelphia Phillies. But their activities were not confined to use of brawn. These men of muscle also annexed the 1940 scholarship cup. In addition, they copped the following offices: President — Jack McGill — and Treasurer — Thad McDonald— of the Senior Class .... President — Julian Bishop — and Treasurer — Glenn Abernathy — of the Junior Class .... Vice-President — Dean Downs — of the Fresh- man Class .... President — Frank Dominick — of ODK ....

Three men made ll ' lw ' s ll ' lio in American Colleges and Unirersities, one for the second year. Prexy Bob Morton also held the gavel for the A. I. M, E. for the second year. Socially, their activities liave included the annual Hallowe ' en Masquerade party by the pledges, the Christmas Banquet, at which Mr. John S.

They have had a throttlehold on student offices and winning their share in other fields. Under the spiritual guidance of Brother Ford McDonald and the political genius of Senator Howell Heflin, they have filled the following offices with their loyal playmates : President — John Howard — of the Student Body and a Phi Beta Kappa .... Vice-Presi- dent — Howell Heflin — of the Executive Coun- cil ... . Secretary — Happy West — of the Exec- utive Council .... Editor — Sammy Pruett — of the Hilltop News .... Business Manager — Tom Dill— of the Hilltop News .... Varsity Manager — Howell Heflin — of the Debate Team .... President — Charles Jones — of Interna- tional Relations Club ....

In addition to these, the Lambies have five members on the E.xecutive Council, six members in ODK, and a lilieral sprinkling of representatives in most caiupus groups and activities — including the great sports leader- ship of Slingin ' Sammy Pruett. Their fertile minds conjured up several new- slants on the entertaining angle. One idea that was very well received among the usually hungry females was that of entertaining each sorority in turn at a dinner-dance at the frat house. Another innovation was the kindly act of inviting representatives from the other fra- ternities on the Lambda Chi parties. Their alumni dance was held on March 21 and the big dance on May 8. They had one man in Phi Beta Kappa and three men in H ' ho ' s Who in American Colleges and I ' uii ' ersities.

A. ' s started out with ' only a handful of men — it ' s not the start but the finish that counts ; they wound up the season in the upper frat brackets. Rushing throughout the season netted them eight men, including Rex Windham, singing star of An- derson ' s Choir. The bo ' s started off the social season of the year when they gave the annual fall dance, back in November, which was a bang-up af- fair. They had a novel idea when they gave their Ambition Party. Everybody was invited to come dressed as their life ' s ambition at the age of 10 years — it was literally a howling success. Besides having an unusual amount of brawn among their members, they also have their share of the brains in Kappa Phi Kappa, hav- ing Joe Gordon, Shelton Key and Peck Sands in that erudite organization. Speaking of Peck, he was the only man ever to be unanimously elected captain of the All-Frat Football Team, of which Charlie Ware was also a shining light. When Founder ' s Day came around on March J- ' jlh and all the Pi K. A. ' s over the state got together to celebrate, the Tutwiler wasn ' t big enough to take care of the affair and they had to move lock, stock and barrel over to the High- land Park. Their national prexy, Roy D Hickman, and Cooper Green were on the program; and Brother John Sjiarkman of the House of Representatives was guest speaker for the evening. During the spring the hoys and their dates enjoyed themselves at their annual house party, Forrest Little (ex-Mr. Hilltopper) and Frank Stone, plus seA ' eral others enjoyed dividing their time between here and Montevallo — a few pins got away — they gave swell socials and were always a contributing factor to the social elite of Deacon ' s Dive. 80 DELTA CHAPTER MEMBERS Jiiliii Allen Forrest Little Stewart Carlton Charles Lagman Lamar Davis Herbert lilton Cecil Giddens ]iob Mingea Joe Gordon Henry Mitchell Shelton Kev Malta Xaraniore PLEDGES John Owen Glenn Stevens Sam Phelps Frank Stone Ed Phelps Charles Ware Peck Sands Rex Windham P.ill Smith Back : Key, E.

In addi- tion to the Managing Editor, the followers of Minerva also held the editorship until Frank Cash followed the call of national defense and was mobilized with the National Guard in January. Cash was also the boys high-point man in scholarship. Bill Hudson, an up-and-coming young man if there ever was one, was a crack football manager, handling SAE athletics as well. He took over the Sadie Hawkins Day business in the closing moments and converted a riot into a success. Joe Horn, the only man on the Hill to outtalk Dr. Hutson, gets more and more philosophical, is a V bigshot.

Still talking about a new house, especially after their latest fire, they have a good time planning the edifice with escalators and lots of brass rails. True to their tradition of big- ness, the boys threw some of the best informals on the Hill. They really did themselves su- per!) in their spring formal, however — every girl in the leadout with an orchid ! This Or- chid Foimal on April 30 closed out their offi- cial entertainment period with a lot left to look back on.

Under their energetic president, Elise Wheeler, they have taken their share of cam- pus honors, capturing third place in the so- rority scholarship rating for this year and placing representatives in many of the im- portant organizations on the Hilltop. Two of the memhers, Glen Jenkins and Mary Elizabeth Williamson, were on the Executive Council. Barbara Sutherland represented them on the Y.W .C.A. Cabinet, and Dorothy Garrett was on the Freshman Commission. The honorary fraternities were well littered with Alpha Chi faces. Sigma Phi lota claimed three of them, Ann Hale, Rosa Stewart, and Louise Smith. Glen Jenkins was president of Alpha Lambda Delta. Four members, Bebe Faust, Glen Jenkins, 8-i Rosa Stewart, and Jane Davis, had enough to back up their musical inclinations to attain memliership in the exclusive A Capella Choir, and Mu Alpha owes both its president, Jane Davis, and its Vice-President, Rosa Stewart, to the Aljjha Chi ' s. To complete their all-round activity cata- logue, Margy Graham and Lora Hill are part of the staff of the Hilltop News, and four gals, Mary Elizabeth Williamson, Rosa Stew- art, Marjorie Dolvin, and Barbara Freeman, graced the ranks of the Beauty Parade. Their social activities included a big steak Irv on Shades Mountain, their Just for Fun Ball, and finally their annual dance at the Pickwick, alxiut which the campus is still talking, honoring that famous old Irishman, St. Patrick.

In fact, they ' ve got members in just about every campus organization and are always well rep- resented in Kaylor ' s Kavern by Sisters Davis, both of ' em, Walsh, Wood, Stanton, Thur- man and McLaughlin. Early fall found the girls hurriedly pre- paring for the visit of their national presi- dent, Helen Haller, trying to get the kitchen painted, finish their British War Relief sweat- OFFICERS Mary Penri;ddocke President Ji ' LiA Thiemonge Vice-President Mary Ann Rice Secretary Mary Evelyn Lollar Treasurer ers, and sell doughnuts to raise money for phi- lanthropies all at the same time. Spring came and the girls got quantity as well as quality in their pledges, which were second to none. The big affair of the year is their annual Rose Ball, the first dance of the spring year and always one of the best. Twice a month they gather in the room for supper, gossip and general talk. Steak fries, tea dance for pledges. Founder ' s Day celebration, banquets at the drop of a hat, and spend-the-night par- ties in the room keep the girls plenty busy. Thev were nobly represented in the Beauty Parade by Sisters Galloway and Mason. Jayne Walton, member of Y Cabinet, had the difficult task of handling properties for Craig ' s Wife, while Carolyn Mason decorated the production with the juvenile lead. Carolyn and Flee represented the girls on the college publications board by being on the hiilltop Ncivs staff and La Revue. Aside from being academically minded, they also manage to lead dances, and make all the lead-outs.

Their comradely spirit has oft been noted in the Bookstore. Three of their members graced the board of the Coed Council, two are on the Y Cabinet, two in KDH. They had a hog ' s share of W. A. A., and Elizabeth Roark was vice- president. Who ' s Who in American Colleges and UniTersities chose Barbara Callaway and Leslie Thorpe Kaylor as two of the outstand- ing women on the Hilltop. Barbara Callaway had the lead in Trial By Jury, and four of her sorority sisters were in the A Capella Choir. Nina .Abernathy played in the school orchestra and was one of the Conservatory ' s jjet protegees. Not to lae outdone by their musically-in- clined playmates, Elaire Cooper has won her wings in the flying course, and Caroh ' n Bar- ker is currently sporting a sparkler. Their parties were an original lot, including the annual Hell, Heaven and Earth blowout, a Fads and Ads brawl, several swanky picnics at Elaire Cooper ' s camp, and the annual big dance. Barbara Callaway, Robbye Tate, Leslie T.

In fact, the pledges — with the dramatic and scholastic prowess of Eugenia Dabney, the athletics of Wita Jones and Lil Culley, the dance-leading of Beate Aubrey, the carolling of Carol Marie Davis and the pro- duction work of Edith Morgan — set a vicious pace for the actives to maintain. Too, Pledges Beate Aubrey and Jean Harris represented the Frosh in La Revue. Not to be outdone by such cut-throat compe- tition from their own protegees, the actives stepped up their own tempo. President Throckmorton chose to head the Pan-Hellenic Council and worked with Jennie Mae Webb as one of the mainstays in Dr. Ab ' s theatrical department. Flay McPherson wrote ads for the Hilltop Ne ' cvs, Julia Bouchelle graced the Y-Cabinet ; and Addie Lee Dunn took time off from being athletic to follow the call of La Revue ' s Beauty Parade. Climactic event of the KD year came in , ' pril when the locals jjlanned and executed the second annual Kappa Delta Rally. With actives and alumni pouring in from every col- lege and hamlet in the state, the girls were swamped with socials, business, and chit-chat. Closing out their social year with the Annual Dance in March, the girls prepared for their yearly trek to Fort Walton, Florida in the earlv summer.

Their membership is scattered far and wide in almost every activity on the campus, with Oops in the Y-Cahinet. Chi Sigma Phi, and the music groups. In fact they have five mem- bers in the College Choir, two in Mr. McPeek ' s Orchestra, and two in the musical honorary, Mu Alpha.

When they can pull themselves away from these activities, the Theta U ' s specialize in un- usual and interesting parties. Last Fall they began the year with an old-fashioned School Party. Then came a series of informals, en- tertaining other sororities and groups of girls, climaxed with a scavenger hunt and dance at Hollvwood Stables honoring new initiates. High point of their social year came when Mrs. Palmer Lowry, National Vice-President, visited the Chapter.

President Dorothy Irving and actives were swamped with lunch- eons, dinners and husiness meetings. It was a gala feather for the cap of the Chapter. Individually and socially the Zetas shone all year. Anna Louise Beatty and Mary Virginia Hamilton returned to the ideal of learning with mixed emotions fostered by engagement rings. Martha Anne Paty and Martha Gary Smith, the two inseparables, kept up their pace : Paty made the Y Cabinet with Marv Louise Ivy and Martha Gary became an E.xecutive Covmcilor. Intellectually the Zetas have Marv Louise Ivy and Mary Virginia Hamilton, with straight A ' s. Both are members of Alpha Lambda Delta, and pledge Marion Curran is follow- ing closely in their footsteps.

I i ' OXl{ of tlie youngest organizations on the HiIlto]j, the Co-Ed Ckibbers are going great guns in a social way. Beginning their second year as a group, they had only twelve members and seven of those twehe graced the Beauty Parade. Two of them, Georgia Phil- lips and Marv Harris, were in the finals. They also cherish a great deal of the brains on the Hilltop. Margaret Hickman and Grace Gamble, leaders in dramatics and radio, reached the inner sanctum of Mortar Board. Grace Gamble made Phi Beta Kappa while Myra Ware Williams, JMary Kate Nungester and Sara Ellner get free schooling on achievement scholarships. Myra is also in .Mplia Eamlida Delta, of which Janette lunkettrick is vice- president. While some of them pep up the intellectual tempo of the Hill, others are muscially in- clined : Lucie Ford, the backbone of the Music Department, is accompanist for the Choir when she isn ' t singing in it. She also plays for the Orchestra. In fact, one-third of the Co-Edders are in the Choir. Eleanor Gray, whose hair is platinum without benefit of beauty parlors, lends her talent to Mu Alpha, being treasurer. She wields a pretty tune. Margaret Hickman trod triumphantly upon the boards of the Col- lege Theatre for Night Aliist Fall — an accom- plished thespian. JMajoring in romance, little Mary Dorough is reputed to have the best col- lection of fraternity jewelry on the Hill. W ' ith such a talent list their social calendar naturallv produced some extraordinary affairs. They gave a Kid Party, a Progressive Din- ner, a Xew- Year ' s Eve Party at Mary Harris , and a Spend-the- Night blowout at Lucie Ford ' s.

THE FIRS Coach Ben Englebert and Athletic Director Bill Battle give facial editorials on the success of t h e intramural program. Hailing from a similar job at Florida-Southern, Mr. Battle found Ben Englebert a master of variety : he also teaches mathematics. T WAS a new era for Birinint hani- vSouthern, the year 1940-41, be- cause Inter-collegiate football was dropped and the Hilltop launched an extensi -€ Intramural progxam with the theme, Sports for all . Under the direction of Coach Bill Battle, who had recently set up a sim- ilar program at Florida-Southern College, intramurals started to click and, as the weeks rolled by, partici- pation grew. Closest figures show that about 65% of the student body have taken action in one or more of the activities offered. Acttial plans for the intramural program were set-up last summer but they were flexible and changes were made to satisfy the greatest amount of student ideas. The actual set-uj) [102] YEAR OF INTRAMURALS for the program is similar to many of those now v(irl ing- at other col- leges, but Coach Bill is enterprising and his original ideas seem to hit the spot. The problem of organization was explained to every student by means of a sports handbook published at the first of the year. In this valuable book the conijilete plans were avail- able. Heading- the entire program is the Faculty Athletic Committee and next in line is the director, Coach Rattle. Students are represented by the In- tramural Board, made up of represen- tatives of each fraternity and Inde- ])endent organization. The purpose of the board is to help the Department understand the desires of students and that ideas of the various groups can be brought to light, b ' or a typi- cal example the board was faced with the problem of the eligibility of for- mer varsity players, and incidentally they were okayed by the Board. Board members were really go betweens for Fraternities, Independents, and the Athletic Department. Through the grillwork of the Athletic Direc- tor ' s cage goes equip- ment for play — a sym- bol of intramurals. 103 X The speed-snap at top catches one of the Hilltop ' s outstanding athletes in action. Big Fred Kimbrough led the pack in al round ability. The shot was taken from pitcher ' s box. The Gold and Black satin of in- tercollegiate Panthers scruffed only the sod of Munger Bowl as intraniurals took over this year. There was no dearth of precision kickers — it ' s an e.xtra point. 104 THE MEN SPORT managers were selected at the first of the year to serve ill ari()us capacities. A manag ' er was selected for each sport or group of sports. It was the duty of the managers to see that team schedules were satisfactory and that they were jjlayed off at the correct time. Managers were on hand for all games of their i articular spt)rt : if n(.)t. they would send an assistant who could gain experience to take over the following year. For their work ( or call it fun ) the managers recei ed sweaters with a liig B . Comments from local newspapers lanned the Hilltop sports program as one that specialized in ping-pong, but if local newsmen could have seen the rough football games this . -•Sit-V N SPORTS year in Munger J Jowl they would have eaten e -ery word. The i io- skin was really heaved, really boot- ed, and thoroughly worn out by the end of the season. Se en frater- nity teams had battled through the football season to be topped by the Kappa Alpha team that boasted a record of six wins and no los.ses. Sparked by Cajjtain Tom Cle eland, the K.A. ' s started on their road to intramural recognition. In the Sadie Hawkins Day game, the Fraternity champions continued their streak of wins by defeating- the Dormitory team, champions of the Independent League. The Dormitory squad had edg-ed the Phillips All-Stars in a playoff game in the Independent League. Badminton was the first men ' s open tournament, and experienced Billy Voigt trounced Bill Hotalen for the champion ' s honor. Entrants in the tourney numbered about forty, and this number was con- sidered fairly good because of the newness of the sport to the Hill- top. Since that time interest has .grown and twice the number would probably enter if they had another chance. I ' drirty in Muiujrr Bowl: ' J ' he Rcjbin Hoods pulled strings . . .

TENNIS T i:. . is this year was the only inter- Cdlle iate sport left on the hilltop after the athletic jjurge of two years ago. The team was selected by means of an o]ien tournament, from which the high men were i)laced in a ladder, with the o])i)ortunity of challenging ' each other for jjosition. Tennis team members were Wood Herren, John Moriarty, Perrin Reynolds, Ed Xeill, Jack Cale, Ed I ide, Julian Guf fin, and Gray Buck. Two of the first fi e men of the team were freshmen, and added much to its strength. Only two of the eight men named graduate this year, presaging a strong group for next season. From the ten matches Birmingham- Southern emerged with a successful score of six wins and four losses. Some opponents were ' anderbilt.

Horsepitching , as the President said, is a grand old game which the Hilltop sought to bring back into its own until the needed equiii- nient t )r more expensive sports could be pro- vided for, at least. The high-flying KA ' s stooped to the dirt to take this championship. VOLLEYBALL . . . proved just how underrated were the ex- panded waistlines of the faculty men. The men of brain oozed grace and vitality to defeat all comers in one of the most interesting sports campaigns of the year. ' olleyball carries with it a great deal of the interest in sports on the Hill, boys included. The girls of course were born playing the stuff. GOLF Hnndicapi)ed l;y the lack of an adjacent course, the golfers had to trek all the way over to Highland Park. N ' ancey Lewis was the pre- mier stick-swinger cm the camjius, with Waldo Stubbs clubbing a close second. Golf became a substitute for campus courses, what with the guys taking their gals out to Munger Bowl for a few close-together swats at the iiellet. 107 INTERFRATERNITY FOOTBALL 1 ■ SPARKPLUG of the intramural prooram this year was the cooperation of fraternities. Already ort anizccl for action, they threw them- selves into the breach in almost every line nt jilay with some team or another. But independent teams led the way in many endeavors. The Dor- mitory crowd were always a fishtint - crew, ready to furnish competi- tion anywhere, anytime. Climaxing- a season of victories o er all comers, the Kappa Alpha team won the championship before a Sadie Hawkins day crowd of se -eral hundred bleecherites. Leading his teammates to the win was one of the sportsmen-of-the-year Tom Cleveland, whose passes hit all targets no matter where they were. WniTK Shorts Repl. ce Uniforms of Gold . nd Black SPORTS BASKETBALL Hoops were i)laced in Munger Bowl, limestone was splattered around and basketball season was under way. Planning- to use the new gym, every- one was disappointed but made the best of things despite high March winds. The tyjie of play could not be compared to indoor matches but teams made the best of thing ' s and re- ceived more fun than anything else. An ag gTessive Dormitory team won the Indei endent title and a highly tu- tored K.A. team romped to the t jp of the Fraternity League. Five Up — One Down SOFTBALL Finali to the s]iorts season came with the KA ' s and the Dormitory meeting ' to decide the titular cham- pionship of the campus. The KA ' s ran wild during their regular schedule winning ' six straight games. Making a strong- bid for the soft- liall title was the A.T.O. aggregation headed by Don lirabston. Tlie A.T.

Here, too, the ravages of team-battle forced the women to dodge effort to preserve beauty. The strain on the compact -as terrific. And it ' s barely possible that the man in the picture was watch- ing the ball. HOCKEY provided new thrills, barked shins, many a slij and slide. Sometimes the g ' irls forgot themseKes and went after the puck with exhibitions of grace and beauty which they usually reveal only under the high light of a mellow moon. Perhaps their inspiration came from Miss Turner and Miss McCoy, who took a lot of butterflies off the sidelines. P I N C PONG matches were held in the Student Activity Building for lack of facilities in the first year setup. In fact that building was a chaos of flying balls, badminton rackets, and the weird noises of Mr. Ab ' s College Theatre. The cool-headed Pi Phi ' s won out, but Theta U ' s Louise Gilmore did her bit to ] lace that sorority second. 1 113 1 Ws WMm 1 dm  ■ti ' ■■ .

First came a sprinkling- of excava- toi s, concrete-mixers ; students accustomed themselves to throwing it a hasty glance each morning. The rains came, and the gym was left soaked and aldue on its side of the Quadrangle. At first it was going to be ready liy Christmas. Christmas found the hope-barometer pretty low, but the gym climbed skyward almost without students realizing it. After two or three weeks of disregard, they would glance up in surjirise to find that it had sneaked up into the treetops. Things looked bright. People talked about when the gym would open. The date was set at the beginning of the second semester. But students struggled through exams with the shell of it gradually becoming a building. Now people talked about if — and when . They made the date official. May Day. The May Queen was crowned and drew a lot of attention. The gym drew none. There was no opening. There was still no gym. The word broke forth on the campus in a special handbill of the Hilltop Nezc ' s: the fund was at rock bottom. Began a second dri -e to raise money for the .gym — no gold brick scheme this time, but a ]ilan based on the generosity of the student according to his own ability to give. The success of this effort is yet to be proved. But they ' ll swim by September, they say. 114 n ' La X THE tiillowina ' pages you will find a t_ ' pical cross-section of American underoraduates.

When no one had aired their opinions on South Today broad- casts, Barbara Callaway hadn ' t war- bled in x ' arious musical productions, Tom Dill was just a back row bari- tone, and Virginia Van der Veer wasn ' t Hildy? Those were the days Tom Childs was not Mr. Childers secretary and Mr. Childers wasn ' t the Great White Chief. Beulah Pittman wore the best looking clothes in school and drove a sporty yellow convertible. The cam- pus co-eds wore stockings and high heels and didn ' t linger in the book- store but bought their cokes and left. Girls who snidked were talked about and no one could tell the Glover twins a])art. I eslie Thorpe was not Mrs. J. D. Kaylor, Lewis Crance, Miles Den- ham, and Pauline Thomas weren ' t married, and Madame Burks was just Nell Echols at Agnes Scott and a classmate of Julia Thiemonge. Tau Kappa Alpha and Bill Vance had never met, and Cecil Parson was just the freshman who worked for Mr. McWilliams. The two Franks, Cash and Dominick, were nothing but freshmen fraternity pledges.

The Duke wrote the dirt and Cat ' s Paw started ' Southern ' s first stunt night combined with an abolished May Day. Then the G. and B.

Quad materialized, Ernestine Baze- more became the bookstore (|ueen and e ervone wondered who the Omul Cover Girl was going to be. Phi Beta Kappas wandered into town in saddle shoes and socks — looking no different from the high school crowd. Eags be- came rampant in the new bookstore and the girls began supplying the boys.

Class officers were elect- ed for the first time in history, and The E.E.C. was organized. About two months before gradua- tion, familiar faces were seen on the campus beneath unfamiliar caps.

His name is Mike Baronelli. In the Spring of 19-iO, he came to Bob Lively and said, Lively, why don ' t we have a magazine ? Lively, true to form, said, Hunh? But the germ was planted. Like some of Mr. Kincaid ' s amoebas, it spread and multiplied until Quad, quarterly of Bir- mingham-Southern, published its first issue last November. At the beginning there were a lot of doubting Thomases. Changing these minds took all summer for the Editors-to-be ; now it was Bol) Lively, Virginia Van der Veer, and Tom Childs who were pushing the idea of a magazine. They proved that a magazine on the Hilltop was possible. Enough students were found who were able to produce the copy. The money came by donation from the business managers of the Hilltofi Xnvs and La Rcvuc. And when the fall semester opened, Childs, Lively, and Van der Veer, Inc., founders, editors, and publishers of Quad began the work which brought the first little sixteen page edition. In the following pages you find La Revue ' s tribute to a first attempt well-done. IN THIS ISSUE Pro Wyatt Tones QUAD Con Richard Blanton MOMENT OF LEISURE Cornelia Banks WHY I LIKE KNITWITS IN CLASS - Dr. Harold Hutson _ reik man i Leu d the hooksii ore MOMENT OF LEISURE ■! TiiKKK tliey sit, or stand or sprawl, in the bookstore, these Southern ladies and gentle- men, their mint juleps replaced by bottle cokes, their tradition- ally soft voices making the room heavy with talk, as the air is heav ' with cigarette smoke. There they are, the present gen- eration in the .South, descended from tile chivalry of antebellum days. Meet the y o u u g South. At an end-booth three girls and a cou- ple of bovs sit talk- ing, now earnestly, now jokingly, of ev- erything from John L. Lewis to falling in love. They are per- fectly frank; the girls do not blush pret- tilv when one boy remarks, Wliv sure, she pitches woo! Don ' t we all. Greased lightning, I call her. The boys, in their turn, are not at all amazed when the good-looking girl strung with fraternity jewelry remarks be- tween puffs on a lipstick-stained cigarette, No, I ' ve never played the ditty box he gave me for Christmas. It ' s all I can do to be nice to him until his dance ; but I ' m hanging on, ' cause I sure do want to be in that leadout. Now and then the talkers pause to listen to the sound of voices drifting over the partition between booths. Finally one of the boys — tall, blond, lanky — goes next door to see what ' s go- ing on. A brunette with a beau- tiful, absolutely unexpressive face is tenderl) ' patting the hand of the black-haired, green-sweatered boy beside her: You ' re cute, Charlie, vou ' re terribly cute, she murmurs, and begins telling him about her Saturdav night date with jimmy. The tall lanky boy, reluctant to butt in, returns to the end- booth. Gosh ! What a woman. Absolutely no personality — she just looks. But Lord ! how she looks ! .A. cloud of cigarette smoke en- velops a group of boys listening unconcerned as one of their num- ber drawls, Well Mom and Dad had a big cocktail party and o ' course I had a couple of cock- tails, and then I went to get my date, and while I was waiting for her to put on her face, her old man and I fixed us a couple of drinks, and tlien I asked her where she wanted to go and. she said the Continental Room, and we sat there for about three hours, and I don ' t know how many drinks we had, and then we went over to the P,G., and we i)assed the furnaces and I was showing her where they were making a run, and a car just ran into us. None of the listeners is surprised at the casualness (or is it casualty) of the speaker, for each is preparing to tell h i tale of his accident. Huddled over a table three men, who ' re obviously not students, sit thrash- ing out the day ' s problems. One. wear- ing a brown suit but- toned tightly across his bay window, chuckles deeply as his moustached colleague with a decided foreign accent relates some tale of his dog Easy. I can match that with a story about a dog my wife had up in Iowa, begins the fat man, as another professor, slightly bald, and be- spectacled, picks up a geography book preparatory to departure for class. Suddenly the door opens, and in burst two coeds. One, blonde and pretty, but thin, near-sight- edly peers about looking for the red-cheeked KA she ' s always having lovespats with ; the other, a short smooth little number 153 CORNELIA BANKS helloes her way over to a small table surrounded by about fifteen of ber sorority sisters, who lis- ten intently as a pretty, black- baired girl remarks, Now at home in Texas, ...

I think the picture just ruined the book. Of course, there were lots of things that wouldn ' t ever have gotten past the Hays office. As it was, my date was embarrassed to death — I got so tickled ; but there were some cute cracks like. . . . ; and finally degenerate to the level of the latest jokes. Did you hear about the Salvation Army girl? Bill told me. Well, ... and all the heads, blonde and brunette, are bent eagerly forward to catch the whispers. Next to this group is another crowd of young heads bent over a table, where a group of four concentrate on a game of bridge. One heart, slowly drags out an ugly blond boy, kicking over his violin case ; his breath is in- dicative of a couple of teers, and he is tolerantly reputed to drink like a fish. Bye, declares a throaty voice as the red-headed glamour girl next to him lights a cigarette. Pass , broad-A ' s the good-looking professor with the English accent, drawing his hand- kerchief from his sleeve.

J kort 2 hoft Sytori a la ' ' i OUAE Bazriiore [li3] iJ s P R O BY WYATT JONES Thosiv of us who had not spent ' the summer in Florida were looking less and less like alhinos. persimmon-eaters were looking forward expectantly to the first frost, hav fever sufferers were in the throes of the worst golden- rod season in years, and Van der Veer, Lively and Childs (herein- after referred to as The Editors) announced the hirth of a new stu- dent publication. Catching many of us unaware, our queries were not always in- telligihle : Whatsquad ? What squad ? What ' s quad ? The first issue didn ' t answer all the ques- tions, but the name came out of the wrangle. It was Quad. In this number we discovered other salient points. ( )n the first ]3age (numbered 3 ) we are told, This is your say so . . . Quad is to be an ever-available medium of student expression. The article was solemnly authenticated by the signature of An Editor — V.V. (Very Vogue). In keeping with this initial ded- ication The Editors ]:)resented two very interesting articles by two very interesting alumni — Messrs. Holland and Mizelle. The prospectus had made claims to being literary. We cheered. A section of student poetry { Miss Kirk insists it ' s poultry!) was introduced. Two very appropriate verses were un- veiled. Honest, I thought they were very good. In fact, I can ' t see why the young Miltons should modestly cover their identities with pseu l()n ins. Hut mv search thriiugh last ear ' s l.n Rriiic failed to reveal either the names or the pictures of Matthew Arn- old or FC. E. Cummings — jjossi- bly they are freshmen. Later issues did b: ing forth some home- spun poelr ' . It looked something like this : OX FIRST LOOKING IX- TO BIRMINGHAM-SOUTH- ERN ' S NEW LITERARY MAGAZINE God, Quad ! The article by A Coed on page 13 certainly relieved my qualms as to the structural sta- bility of Ramsay. I discovered that the clicking, scraping sound which made restless my class- room sleep was made by knitting needles and not, as I had long- suspected, by termites. If you have gotten the idea that Quad is all sweetness and light, and I don ' t see how you could, you ' re dead wrong. There have been plenty of fights. Mr. Holland started the ball rolling in the first issue by biting the hand that feeds him. Mr. Kruskopf, who feeds from much the same hand, called his cards. I drew a blank. Then the Greeks had a sayso and Mr. Caldwell and Mr. Ethridge refought the Battle of Tobacco Road. If you stayed with the boat, you did some traveling. You traipsed through the Swiss Alps with Sis Dabney, you viewed New York ' s skyscrapers from Miss Smith ' s star-wagon, you saw the Americas South with Vargas and flew high with Army Pilot Lively — all in one little is- sue. Going some. The Editors also took quite a liking to domestic scenes. We followed with baited breath the marital antics of Nell and Bill. We got a key-hole view of the home life of the Glover twins. Blanton took us on a raucous in- spection tour of the campus dom- icile — Andrews Flail. It was all very interesting, but certainly the kind of copy that goes best in discreet doses. All in all, Quad has been quite arty. Especially the covers. First there was a montage which prac- tically covered the campus — from Childs to Childers. The second issue flamed forth with a lurid shot of, I presume, a blast fur- nace in action. Mr. Blanton ob- serves that it was faintly remi- niscent of hell-fire. The third issue had to go through the throes of a Cover Girl Contest before it blossomed out with the attractive Miss Paty and assorted posies. The colorful Chesterfield Girl on the reverse cover offered only mild competition. 1 f the alumni keep coming through; if the cigarette sugar- daddies don ' t go broke, if the professors continue their class- room repartee. Quad will un- doubtedly go on to greater glo- ries. Already it has tasted suc- cess. The Editors may not have built a better mouse trap, but at least their cheese has had variety. 154 BT QUAD? BY RICHARD BLANTON CON I AM a very inoffensive person. ' I possess no hirsute torso ; and my liiceps. at best, look like strangely distended grapes. My friends often wonder, when strangers call, wh}- I have to be called out from behind the sofa. I take off my hat in e 1 e V a t o r s w hen there are w o m e n present, even if they happen to have moustaches. All this b e i n g true, my reading habits may seem rather strange. Be- ing at heart a home- body, one of my greatest pleasures is in propping my feet against the radiator and perusing one of the current coarse periodicals. Of that type of lit- erature so appro- priately called Col- legiate I am very fond. I am also much addicted to the magazines deal- ing with the true experiences of young maidens and their vicissi- tudes in the prac- tice of love. It was with great joy, then, that T heard of the new campus lit ' ry magazine, and awaited eagerly the first issue. It came ; I tossed it aside after a brief glance at the table of contents, resolving not to form any snap judgments, intending to give the vuiuj J JiL Xut-Wits Jn a rtjj Bx Dr. Harold Hutson Ax HoL ' R with a Birmingliani-Southern class is like a ride into the peaceful countryside — everywliere one sees the utter contentment so liighly advertised by the Carnation Milk Company. The expressions upon the face of a ruminating cow and a knitting co-ed are identical ; each has that look born of complete freedom from mental effort. Usually this restful scene is somewhat disturbed by the coordinated chewing of Spartan-like gum which yields to the glistening teeth of the young lady only after prolonged protests and explosions. How- ever, after all is considered, I ' ll take the wool even at the cost of the field artillery. The fascination of a small kitten for a ball of yarn is tra- ditional : it remained for the classroom-laboratories of Bir- mingham-Southern to demonstrate beyond a doubt that this trait often persists in full-grown Felines. It is characteristic of the child ' s mind that he cannot long give attention to one object or train of thought. Concentration upon any complex relationship leads to boredom and restless- ness: the simple processes form a basis for rest and pleasure. Hence knitting serves to engage a mind not sufficiently adult to grasp the intellectual processes of the hour, and ultimately saves wear and tear on the furniture and the patience of class- mates. Intellectual frustration often finds harmless outlet in the fiendish glee with which vacuumatic frills drive savage needles into the unoffending wool. Since sufficient sleep is not within the limits of collegiate respectability, some slight physical activitiy must assist the in- dividual to deny the claims of Morpheus. Knitting is for this purpose ideal : it requires sufficient motion and no thought. Since most instructors are neither dentists nor surgeons, sleep- ing beauties who display teeth and tonsils are far less to be desired than those whose knitting brings th-e lanquid look of complete innocence. Instead of an article by a coed beginning, I was a very pretty girl but my mother never told me anything. ... My unwilling eyes were forced to take in a dis- cussion on the fu- ture of the liberal arts college in .America. Inst ead of a nice story about a college af- fair : I had one cocktail too many and so had she. Neither of us stop- ped to think. We didn ' t care what happened. I saw an article on the South ' s econoinic condition, only mildly warmed by the picture slightly reminiscent of hell- fire on the cover. boys another chance ; they ' d come around. Came the second issue. I found it too, alas, quite disappointing. [ 155 ] I he magazine is rather tame, and far too serious. Why not an expose of administrative graft ? or a reveal- ing story on faculty affairs d ' amour? Nothing is more tiring than a person who seems to con- sider himself com- pelled to think. Thinking itself is very tiring and quite useless. People are rarely interested in the thoughts of others ; their personalities are not !: ' ii JJ •t! 1:1 ' built that way. Thinking is also dangerous. The human mind is not laiilt for it. The human mind is built for avoiding the un- pleasant, and thinking devoted to other purposes is not only a sec- ondary adaptation, but it defeats the ends of nature. That ' s the reason I ' m not so sure I want I he thinking of others forced upon me in printed form. The magazine has erred in another respect. The articles are not only obvious attempts at thought, the thought is of a subjective nature. The student looks about him and is filled with a sense of some- thing-or-other at the condition of the world today. He writes it down. Quad publishes it. The literary products of thought are too often like the whistling of a small boy passing a graveyard trying to convince himself that the graveyard is not there. The jackel who hears the roar of a lion is careful not to mistake it for the scjueal of a sucking pig, even though he likes sucking pig. The animal mind was developed through long ages for protecting the animal from the vicissitudes of its environ- ment, for avoiding the unpleas- ant. Only man has been able to Glamor Girl Gra traduce his intelligence and force it to deny that the unpleasant is anything other than what it is. I am not saying that Quad is entirelv wrong in its approach. Some very good things have been done. But The Editors should consider that imagination is most interesting as imagination and nothing else ; that, though the imagination of most of us couldn ' t stand baring, they should at least contribute to the flavor of the reading matter. csJuoteS h rowi QUOTABLE gUDTES ' ' A man begins to have thoughts about women after he ' s thirty-five ; before that he onlv has feelings.
