Beat! beat! drums! — Blow! bugles! blow! Through the windows — through doors — burst Uke a force of ruthless men, Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation; Into the school where the scholar is studying: Leave not the bridegroom quiet — no happiness must he have now with his bride; Nor the peaceful farmer any peace, ploughing his field or gathering his grain; So fierce you whirr and pound, you drums — so shrill you bugles blow. Walt Whitman f ' ; ' ' ■:- A -55 HILLTOP JTROM its lofty site atop Enon Ridge, Birmingham-Southern Col- lege surveys the city of Birmingham, and looks as it is, a monument to higher and finer education in Alabama — education that not only fits the prospective man or woman technically to lead a successful and happy life, but teaches him the all-important business of how to live. The foundation stones of this theory of liberal arts education are the faculty of the college, an ever-willing group of men and women who practice what they preach, and live with the student as well as teach him. It is no uncommon sight to see faculty mem- bers and students in the cafeteria, smoking an after dinner cigarette and engaging in a violent argument where all professorial dignity is dropped and the talk is man-to-man. It is this attitude of informality in student-prof(?§sDf relation- ship which makes for the success of the liberal art§ t The Presenting Dr. Raymond Ross Paty, genial president of BSC, who is one dreamer whose visions materialize — the Gym, of course. J VERYONE thinks that college presidents are supposed to go down town and get the money. They aren ' t supposed to have any ideas on education; that ' s what the faculty is for. They aren ' t supposed to have any ideas on college life; that ' s what the students are for. They aren ' t supposed to have any ideas on college plants and programs; that ' s what the trustees are for. They are supposed to go down town and get the money, and they aren ' t supposed to rock the boat. Here on the Hilltop, we have a president who is different. He is the exception to the rule. Doctor Raymond R. Paty has very definite ideas on education, student life, and college management, and he does rock the boat whenever he sees the need for doing so. 12 He started our intramural program and the gym drive that was a part of it. That was rocking the boat; and he ' s doing another splendid job of boat-rocking by setting the pace for our cooperation in the de- fense program. Doctor Paty came to ' Southern in the fall of nineteen thirty-eight, leaving his position as Director of Fellowships for the Julius Rosenwald Fund to become director of our learning and our college life. Fie is capable as few college presidents are, and he does fine things for our college. PRESIDENT The President ' s Mansion ;T :, t ' i - S b -. 9m nwii III Wyatt Walker Hale, Dean of the College and Registrar EAN AND REGISTRAR JTROM purveyor of shoes to purveyor of facts, grades and general information of more or less interest to the college student has been the career of Wyatt Walker Hale, Registrar and Dean. Born in Gadsden forty-one years ago, Dr. Hale has been with the college since 1923, controlling the registrar ' s office from his inner sanctum on the second floor of Munger. To prove that he is not en- tirely a man of iron as many students believe, he has found time to hear the tale of woe of many a puzzled student, and in the meantime to marry his secretary, gracious Madelyn Thomas, who comes back now and then to lend a hand when registration time comes around. 14 DEAN OF WOMEN K EEPING check on the sorority girls housed in Stockham, mothering the out-of-town girls, collecting bottles, and gracing the Sunday teas are only a few of the duties of Dean of Women Dorothy Webb. Now in her second year at Southern, she is always ready to help in finding a place to board, straighten out rushing difficulties or plan a menu for a sorority supper. Perhaps some of her helpfulness and charm is due to the fact that she has been around a college campus all her life, for her father was president of Randolph-Macon, and she is an alumna of that institution. Miss Dorothy Webb, Dean of Women and Arbitrator-in- General 15 DEAN OF MEN Only a few people know that Jack Stuart ' s name is George R., which is indicative of the friendly personaUty of the man who this year was appointed to the position of Dean of Men. He is the real pal of the undergrad, and any day you may see him giving advice, shooting the bull or telling a joke with a group of students, whether he is in his office or leaning on the counter in the Bookstore. He is a firm believer in student individuality, and this year has suc- ceeded in blasting the belief that the Bookstore crowd is the riff raff of the campus. Mr. Jack Stuart, Dea)i of Men and Bookstore legion standby [ 16 ] Newman Yeilding, Bursar Red to his friends, and general College finance chief BURSAR YEILDING N EWMAN MANLEY YEILDING is positive proof that it pays to learn business while you ' re young. Business manager of the Gold and Black while he was an undergraduate at Southern, he made good on his experience by becoming business manager for the college, and has been capably holding down the position of bursar since 1926. Affectionately called Red by the professors and fearfully referred to by the students as Mr. Yeilding, he is a familiar figure on the campus. Undergraduates are continually being astonished at finding that he is not a regular Scrooge, but a real friend, ready with advice and help, when he is needed. I 17 1 m e U e n Tower Dapper, rotund J. Allen Tower, ex-officio, speaks five languages and is a stag line Romeo. Officially, though, in addition to teaching geography and meterology, he is a member of The South Today, is a radio commentator, and is a member of the Alabama Policy Committee. He likes to read his evening paper over a steak in the cafe- teria, and swings a mean foot at the college dances. Incidentally, he ' s a very nice person to know. Hazt ' k Students and faculty alike regret that the nasal twang and corny jokes that have typified Dr. Emory Quinter Hawk will not be heard again soon on the Birming- ham-Southern campus. Dr. Hawk resigned his posi- tion as head of the Economics department in January to join Uncle Sam ' s forces by doing government work in Washington. Seemingly bluff and austere, he was really one of the best-loved professors on the campus, and his going was a real loss. Poor Many a student has found, with surprise, that it is an impossibility to sleep in Dr. Russell Poor ' s geology class, for he intersperses his lectures with such wise- cracks and jokes that one listens to them if nothing else. Dr. Poor is head of the Natural Sciences division, but he doesn ' t stop there. He is also co-ordinator of defense courses, and this year had a distinct honor in being made a member of the American Association of Economic Geologists. [ 18 ] OF THE YEAR Abernathy His perfect diction is one of the first things you notice about Dr. Cecil Abernathy, and rightly so, for he is a professor of English and the director of the College Tlieatre. Known to his students as Dr. Ab, said doctorate acquired last year at Vanderbilt Univer- sity, he has a passion for good plays, and consistently proves this by presenting such ones as The Male Ani- mal, and by his collaboration with Mr. Anderson in the production of the operetta Tolanthe. Mims Stuart Mims has as many activities as a mince pie has ingredients. In fact, you might say that he has a finger in every pie. From his secluded studio atop the Student Activity building, he teaches young hopefuls about the intricacies of radio work. Deeply interested m this subject, he writes plays and broadcasts from WAPI, and is a weekly commentator on his own. He identifies himself with the student life by being advisor for the AOPi ' s. Cadek Seemingly modest and retiring when he is quietly lunchmg with several of his pupils in the cafeteria, Ottakar Cadek is quite the opposite when he is con- ducting the college orchestra. The pieces the orchestra have played in chapel programs, and the contributions they have made to various dramatic productions are ample proof of Mr. Cadek ' s musical ability and capa- bility, for the orchestra has shown marked improve- ment under his direction. He also has the honor of being Concert Master for the Birmingham Civic Sym- phony Orchestra. I 19 ORGANIZATIONS JpROM the stenches in the lower reaches of Simpson to the lyrical atmosphere o£ Dr. Key ' s office on the top corner of Ramsay, the current crop of joiners and organizers on the Hilltop prepared themselves adequately this year for life — life in Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, British War Relief Societies, and for the Saturday Afternoon Literary Review. Local sadists joined Skull and Bones, receiving the proper stimu- lation from the cadavers on the cold slabs at the Hillman, while the more notorious bull-shooters chattered to their heart ' s content in Tau Tau Tau. Variety, as the Hilltop News would say, was the keynote of or- ganization life on the Hilltop. Jealous Pan-Americans, under the leadership of Gingold, added Entre Amigos to the list which in- cludes Eta Sigma Phi, and Le Cercle Francais. Desiring further knowledge of life and bees and birds and things, biology enthusiasts organized Chi Nu Tau. And as for the rest of the clubs — well, read on: you ' ll find them meeting and talking and meeting and talking just like all the well-bred clubs do.

Of course there were internal problems confronting the members and an almost universal doubt concerning the actions of last year ' s group. But this trouble was quickly eradicated and a long-range planning program was lavmched. Tangi- ble results of this endeavor may be seen in the gym dance rules and the modifica- tion of Cat ' s Paw which proved so suc- cessful this year. These achieved, discussions v ere carried on by the body upon the coming year which culminated in the continuation of the new outdoor May Day which had been fostered by the preceding Council and in countless smaller measures. Working under a student constitution which differed slightly from the original one, the group entertained several sug- gested amendments to the by-laws but could do nothing until a school-wide stu- dent election was held. Such is the demo- cratic group they were. But all was not work for the Council since a script dance was given for the student body and turned out to be a roar- ing social, if not a financial success. The final act of the Executive Council was the awarding of the Senior Loving Cups to the two most outstanding seniors, one boy and one girl. [ 23 ] EDITOR John Huddleston, this year ' s Editor of the South- ern Accent and retired cam- pus politico, quit everything he had an intere:t in this year in order to bring the annual to the student body for the first time before the close of school. With a purely ' Southern theme, the book also has a new name and has tried not to be burdened by the past but insisted on establishing some- thing new for annuals at BSC. The 1942 (jioiNG back into the history of the South a hundred years or so, and bringing you a tradition and a heri- tage that is just as much ours today as it -was of the students of old Bir- mingham College and of old South- ern University, this year the annual proudly adopts a ne-w and more fit- ting name. For truly our yearbook is an accent, and truly it is Southern. The annual not only has a ne ' W name; it has a ne ' W office. On the first day of school in September, the entire staff made a trip en masse to the old office in the basement of the library. They came out laden with tables, typewriters and chairs, and started across the campus. Across the quadrangle they trekked, into the student activity building, and up the stairs. The music studio was divided into two rooms, one for the journalism class and one for the three publications, with a separate office partitioned off for each. With Editor Huddleston loudly and vig- orously complaining that he was be- ing cornered, the annual staff set- tled down into the smallest and corner office for work. So here, assisted by Dick Blanton, with Gra Atkeison later offering advice and assistance, the Southern Accent for 1942 was born, bringing you a breath of the old South and a hint of the new, of magnolia blos- soms and chem quizzes and starched petticoats, of bookstore chatter and steel mills, and of the college life that is a part of the new South. Hefhn ' s worries reflected none of the old South, being closely tied to the new, its advertising, its industry, and its big business. In December the Beauty Pageant was presented with the introduction of choice by popular vote. It is sm- cerely hoped that this proved more satisfactory than the system of judges so loudly complained of m the past. [ 24 1 Ti BUSINESS MANAGER At the beginning of school, H E I- ' L I N was apparently hard-hit by the lack of stu- dents because of the war. Tlie announcement of a fine for a late yearbook didn ' t help any an d in February enrollment made the whole staff fear for his health. He recovered however and, after buckling down to work, had one of the most successful financial seasons in many an annual. SOUTHERN ACCENT EDITORS AND STAFF John Huddleston - Editor Hal Wingfield ..

[ 25 ] EDITOR Posed reading, Bob Lively looks typical in the adjoin- ing picture, but he really divided his time between the News office and the Book- store, dabbling in anything concerning publications and the public in general. He also wrote publicity for the Post and studied poly sci. before quizes. TKe 1942 ixOBERT Alexander Lively, class of ' 43, in three short years at Bir- mingham-Southern worked his way from a mere reporter to the editor- ship of this vociferous outlet for student opinion. Last year saw him capably holding down the job of managing editor, and this year, from his comfy editor ' s chair, he holds forth on anything from Emerson to pretzels. With Lively at the helm and able Cornelia Banks assisting him as cam- pus editor, the paper has kept up its reputation of being a medium of student expression. To prove that they have the interests of the student at heart, they even allowed all com- ers to use the telephone free of charge. Every Wednesday night the office was a scene of busy activity, with Cornelia Banks and Ann Blevins typing complacently away, Editor [ 26 ] Lively tearing his hair in an effort to think up an editorial, society edi- tors Flee McLaughlin and Jane Hud- dleston phoning frantically trying to get date lists, and Walter Anderson contem.platively smoking his pipe and composing the immortal ' Peep ' s Diary ' . To keep the wheels of finance well oiled, Lester Gingold applied his many and varied talents to the jobs of business manager, assisted by a harem of beauteous ad-sellers. Bill Hudson showed up every Friday morning with a mob of pledges to put the paper together and circulate it. And last, but not least, is the man who contributed a great deal in making this a successful year for the paper, the inimitable ' Buckshot ' Mc- Culloch, whose pictures composed the art work of every issue. 3.e BUSINESS MANAGER Lester Gingold, rumored at one time or another to be a stooge of everyone on the Publications Board, finally displayed his mettle when national ads dropped out and even sold some himself. He also disproved the re- ports of tight finances when he liberally handed out bonuses from time to time.

Glenn Aber- NATHY, other Editor, went up East ' before we could get a pose of him. Not withstanding his de- parture the entire staff perpetuated the mag in the eyes of the campus by continuing the good work of their predeces- L NTERING its second year of publication, Quad was put on a firmer financial basis when money was appropriated by the Executive Council to continue it. The fact that it would continue was evidenced by the popular vote showered on the question of the magazine ' s permanence last year by a grateful and complimentary student body. They appreciated the fine choice of articles and short stories by the Editors of the original Quad, the foundling of student publications. The popular election of student editors of the literary magazine was also received with acclaim and a multitude of candidates flocked to be qualified. When the smoke of battle cleared, Rebecca Gray, Glenn Abernathy, and Myra Ware Williams emerged victorious besides having been elected editors. Immediately they adopted a new official of Quad, the Business Manager after much meditation (there had been no manager) they se- Iccted Paul Kassouf for the position. Kasso, as he is commonly known, set out to renew the ad contracts of last year and the magazine began to show signs of prosperity until Heflin rendered a bill which spoiled all hopes of profit. But this did not concern the rest of the staff, especially the three Editors. Glenn Abernathy, Rebecca Gray and Myra Ware Williams who worked like regular Trojans all year, trying to keep the magazine up to the high standard of excellence which was set by last year ' s editors. Their first issue was a credit to themselves and Buck McCulloch, the photographer, for the cover was a picture of an athlete in the gym, and was such a striking and unusual shot that it will long be remem- bered. The consecutive issue featured covers as attractive, though our vote for he most handsome of all was the one on which the Quad Cover Girl was pictured. Lucie Ford, senior and accompanist for the choir, was this year ' s cover girl, and she was so obviously the one for the honor that the editors found it practically impossible to keep her identity a secret until the day of publication, as was the custom in the past. The Quad editors made a bad impression on the Southern Accent staff at the first of the year, for, after a strenuous battle with Heflin, they confiscated the sofa which had adorned the Southern Accent ' s cub- byhole. But, in spite of lounging languorously on the sofa, they managed to put out four super-duper issues of Quad. We take our hats off to Rebecca Gray, Glenn Abernathy and Myra Ware Williams. With the publication of the third issue of the magazine. Editor Glenn Abernathy left the staff to attend Heterology school at MIT. Immediately a new election was called and Cornelia Banks was chosen his successor until general elections came on. A frequent contributor to the publication, the new Editor was also active in other journalistic fields as were her associates, Williams and Gray. Fought over by both the Publications Board and the Executive Council, this year, Quad won new laurels and acclaim from the Campus as a publication worth keeping. J J_ HIS year, the music department has conducted a very ef- fective program, designed to bolster student morale. It began the season with an evening of American music. Included m this Fall Concert were ballads, folk dances, spirituals, and religious anthems of every period in American music. During the annual Christmas festival, the college choir joined local church choirs in traditional candleUght services. The hohday music was climaxed with a convocation performance of Saint-Saens ' Oratorio de Noel with Rex Windham sharing honors with professional soloists of the city. February brought the super-production of lolanthe , most melodious of all the works of Gilbert and Sullivan. Mr. Ander- son trained the voices and conducted the performances; Mr. Cadek prepared the orchestra; Mrs. Van Houten directed the dances; Dr. Abernathy and the College Theatre staged the pro- duction. . The spring tour of the choir was made in cooperation with the U S.O. The singers were acclaimed in a series of concerts which ' extended into many sections of this state, but they gained heaviest applause when they sang in tribute to the men of the American Army.

V ARRYING on tradition with its good work in usher- ing for the Town Hall Series and in decorating Stockham at Christmastime, Omicron Delta Kappa swept forth to a new high this year. Besides this the publication of the ODK Handbook has brought new acclaim to the organiza- tion. In the Spring the annual picnic attracted actives and alumni alike to avow that it had no peer either in the past or future. Later on, some of the boys attended the An- nual Conference and performed several services to the Birmingham community to further enhance their inesti- mable worth. The value of membership in the group is evidenced by the many congratulatory messages published in the Hill- top News at Fall tapping.

L.N organization which taps an entire new chapter at a special Convocation each Spring, Mortar Board is unique among student honoraries. Designed to afford recognition to outstanding Senior women of unusual academic, leader- ship, and service records, this nation-wide clan often taps girls who richly deserve the tribute. Noticable on the Campus after each tapping are the gold ribbons worn fetchingly by each new member. They also, at the beginning of most school years, sponsor career conferences f or the benefit of high school seniors (feminine gender) . To sound out material for the ensuing year, they entertain outstanding junior women at an annual banquet, invitations to which do not necessarily foretell an invitation to membership in Mortar Board. Active as well in the social life of the college. Mortar Board frequently sponsors picnics for out-of-town girls. Mrs. Moore, a sponsor of the group, reviews books for the general edification and interest of club-women and others who contribute to the coffers of this astute body.

A: L.DMITTEDLY the most democratic organization on the campus, the Y.W. is unique in that both sorority and non-sorority girls actually work together. Like their brothers of the Y.M.C.A., they emphasize high moral philosophies and an elevated outlook on life. Also paral- leling the Y.M., they vary their programs to include cam- pus professors in panel discussions, book reviews, parties, ' funny programs ' , and lectures by authors of important bocks in the field of social work. Probably the most practical enterprise undertaken by the Y.W. is the book exchange operated by them; here stu- dents may receive value for value in disposing of, and ac- quiring texts. At the national conference at Oxford, Ohio, were two local delegates, Pauline Thcmas Dobbs and Gene Smith; representing the group at the Blue Ridge conference, were Blevins, Reynolds, Campbell, and Price. Other activities included in the program of the Y.W.C.A. were parties with the Y.M., the Stockham tea. Religious Emphasis Week, and the Big Sister act, designed to help freshman girls through their first trying days. 34 Tront — McFarland. Gotten, Bowling.

Other first-year women on the campus found them a constant source of help in orienta- tion, and their big sisters found them ably cooperative in the philanthropic enterprises of the Y. At the same time an autonomous body and a part of the 1 .W., the frosh Commission works effectively under the supervision of a sponsor from the older group, who this year was Charlotte Meacham, president of the Commission last year. Besides their work in assisting other freshman girls over the bumps at the beginning of school and after, the Commission plans and carries cut various service projects for both pecuniary and cultural gain, presents assorted pro- grams for the Y.W. and other organizations on and off campus, and make themselves generally useful as well as ornamental.

NCLUDING in the year ' s activities a national confer- ence at Oxford, Ohio, and a local conference at Camp Cos- by, Joe Horn led the Young Men through one of their most interesting periods. Participation in Religious Em- phasis Week, the Red Cross Drive, and Freshman Orienta- tion occupied a good part of their time, but they still found a moment in which to bring out the ' Y ' handbook which is supposed to help freshmen become acquainted with the campus. Completely religious enterprises do not constitute the sole activities of the Y.M.C.A., however, for speakers representing every aspect of living appeared from time to time before the group. Leaders in the fields of labor, in- dustry, rehgion, politics, and other interesting callings have aired their views before this body; results may be forth- coming in the future. It is the earnest desire of Dr. Harold Horton Hutson that the Y.M.C.A. will continue in its high traditions and will keep their record of value and outstanding service to the campus intact. 36 Front — B.

Meeting each Monday evening in the Stockham Club Room, they have furnished students with opportunity for deeper insight into religion through informal discussions with refreshments following. This crew, led by Ralph Jolly, has sent out Deputation Teams to different colleges nearby, supplied speakers, teachers, and ministers for several city churches, and has done invaluable work in local welfare agencies, community houses, and hospitals. A non-sectarian organization, these students have been acclaimed a truly humanitarian group and have become locally famed for their philanthropic works.

One day several of these folks got to- gether and formed Theta Sigma Lambda. So now we have an honorary math, fraternity. Limiting their social activities perhaps more than any other organization on the Hill, these embryonic Euclids really bust loose when they do have a party. Instead of emphasizing social development, however, the sharks of Theta Sigma Lambda, delve deep into the intricacies of higher mathematics. Speakers at their monthly meetings would be unintelligible to the average person. Programs prepared by members also smack of the mysterious to those not famihar with such simple theories as Einstein ' s. Extending membership to those who average a B in math., this group is more numerous than the usual hon- orary. But with Professors Glenn, Malone, and others, running the show from behind scenes, there is no lack of enthusiasm and cooperation among the members. It is said that these gentlemen see that all who survive initia- tions are properly aware of the importance of mathematics in the universe. Little publicised, but important at least within its own membership, Theta Sigma Lambda will probably go on and on.

There was a party given in the Spring and plans were formulated to fill up the ditch. Action on the latter was stopped by the filling of the ditch by the school. The purpose of the organization is the training of two men from each pledge group for possible service in the senior group.

With the long and short of every question represented in the persons of Heflin and Horn, Tau Kappa Alpha appears to have followed the usual course of argu- ment. And with the master speech pathologist of the South controlling its course, this National Forensic fra- ternity continued its usual successful work. The Hilltop debaters have gained distinction through many years of trips and home debates. There was once a time when the T.K.A. membership was composed of men. Several years ago this was changed; and this year Rebecca Gray added that certain touch.

This is because of the number of novices out for the squad and the need for some concrete organization for this loosely-knit body to fall back en. But there is some chance for the newcomer and he gets it against visiting squads, the best their schools can offer. Varsity debate is an excellent chance for would-be speakers to show their goods as was proved the past season. It is also a great experience and a lot of fun. MEMBERS Glenn Abernathy . . .

This special women ' s speech group has even increased its activity under the capable leadership of the president, Jean Arnold, and has left the realm of poetry and drama for broader fields. Even then the afore mentioned pursuits have not lost their force but are going on as before. One of the more popular organizations on the campus with freshmen and seniors alike, Tri Tau convenes Thurs- days in Stockham for weekly meetings. It is a fellowship group with as much comraderie and common interest among its members as any on the Hill. [ 42 ] Vroiit — Tlague, Shell, I.. I ' ks,i s. i.

Following a previously outlined program, the organization visited the various labs and clinics in town and heard papers on biological topics. In the late part of the season was the annual tea of the club. All was not scientific, however, since an April Foci ' s party and a senior party were given. 46 Front — RiNNERT, Block, Trotter Middle — Moore, Blackerby, Douglas, Lawson, Reynolds, Williams, Bentley Back — BoucHELLE, Sharp, Savio, Ritchie, Beasley, Lykins, McNarron, Blair KAPPA DELTA EPSILON OEEKING to foster among its members a high profes- sional conception, an elevated standard of scholastic at- tainment, and a spirit of mutual helpfulness. Kappa Delta Epsilon encourages its membership, the future schoolmis- tresses now majoring in Education, in an abounding love of the cause of learning. Under the sympathetic and effective leadership of the Adviser, Dr. Eoline Wallace Moore, Kappa Delta Epsilon presents each year an interesting array of events in the program of Campus activities. Alternating their regular meetings with meetings con- cerned mainly with the business of the group, the sisters of K.D.E. enjoyed a varied type of programs during the year. Book reviews, forum discussions, speakers, debates, and socials combined to afford the teaching scrority pleas- ure and instruction. But meetings and discussions do not completely fill the K.D.E. calendar. The annual alumni banquet given during A.E.A., conferences for freshman women concerning teach- ing as a career, and a host of other activities keep them busy during the school year.

Some observers might think that the annual catalogue ' s nine Georgian Buildings on 160 acres of rolling ground make a college. We would disagree. For these faces on the next few pages are Birmingham-Southern College; their presence in its halls are its life blood; their activities are its pulse beat. These faces are the Hilltop that we will remember — faces we ' ve seen riding above a winged collar and a boiled shirt at the Pick- wick, half hidden in smoke across a booth at the Grill, or misted by the droop of our own eyelids in a thousand and one first period grinds on the top floor of Munger.

It doesn ' t mean the same thing to everyone but always is closely connected with the word oomph. What does the word oomph mean? We haven ' t found any who know. They tell us to look at the beauty section of the annual and there it will be found in profusion — but we are still stymied because of the variety; some have limpid eyes and Veronica Lake hairdos; some are career girls. In fact in this section you may find any type. This is a direct result of the new popular vote which was held to choose occupants for this section of the book — and the selection is the order chosen by Gary Grant who finally judged the contest. Without further ado we take great i e e in presenting the first Miss Southern Accent, Miss Ernestine Bazemor : ?. 5. f« ' 1 0 -  JJ C ilzcwetk .

Memories that bless and burn, but memories that will live warmly and long in the hearts of those boys and girls who are learning from their fraternity or sorority the little intangible give and takes that grease the wheels of life. Greek organizations are the college evidence of the natural tendency of the American peo- ple to organize themselves into groups. Dances, steak fries and hayrides are part of the Greeks ' activi- ties, but they have a more serious side. They are to be praised for the school spirit shown when they took part enthusiastically i he intramural program and the interfraternity sing. .n- ' i -• ' W INTER-FRAT COUNCIL i HE Inter-fraternity Council, under Kenneth Liles, has carried on the work of last year ' s Coun- cil in sticking to a close interpretation of the Rush Rules, and in sponsoring the annual dance. This dance was the first given on the campus by any organization and was a huge social suc- cess even if the expected crowd did not turn out. In the late part of the second semester, the yearly party was given at the usual place and it has been reported that no Boa Constrictors were sighted this season. The spirit of the group reached a new high this year and the result was an absence of fines except for tardy members.

The re- sult was that the time spent by members was not wasted. The annual tea oriented the Fall rush week and was very successful, being attended by the president and rush captain of each group. For February rushing, rules were modified and were unanimously agreed upon which shows a spirit increase by the order. The president, Mary Til- ler, is largely credited with this improvement. 93 ALPHA TAU OMEGA OFFICERS Kenneth Liles Presidenf Otto Robertson Yice-President Bobby Bowen Jim Dent Secretary Treasurer With vociferous Ken Liles at the controls, the A.T.- O s have come pretty near to losing their reputation as being an unassuming, studious group of boys. Loud are Liles ' lamentations in the various organizations of which he is a member — ODK, Varsity Debate, T.K.A. and Delta Phi Alpha. At every meeting of The South To- day he may be heard speaking his mind, whether he has anything to say or not. Most of the time he has. Jim Dent, his fellow member of The South Today, upholds the good old A.T.O. tradition, for his comments are few and carefully chosen. Not only by mouth but by pen do the A.T.O. ' s make themselves heard. Walter Anderson is associate editor of the Hilltop News and writer of the famous Peep ' s Diary, which was a weekly feature of the paper this year. Sam Russell, also, is no mean writer, and is a member of Chil- ders ' clan of composers of literary corn. Like the Great White Chief, he is a notorious tea drinker. In contrast to his older brother, the second Liles A.T.O. , Raeford, is an accomplished jitterbug and mathe- matician. He does not confine his laryngitical activities to the campus, for there is hardly a gal in town but has benefitted or suffered from his captivating line. Angel- faced Bobby Bowen is on the Y Cabinet, and Don Brush follows Prexy Liles in being a member of Varsity Debate. Milton Simpson is on the Interfraternity Pledge Council, and James Smith is a member of Eta Sigma Phi. Socially speaking, the A.T.O. ' s followed the general rule in giving a number of parties and a formal in the spring. At Christmas they had a banquet for A.T.O. alumni and members home from service with Uncle Sam. One of the most memorable of their parties, for various reasons, was the one held in December at Double Oak Mountain. 94 ' I ISyJ Alabama Beta Beta Chapter Front Row — Simpson, J.

Prexy Walker is a Skull and Bones member of long standing, and a mem- ber of the Y.M.C.A. Cabinet as well. In addition, he is noted for his sparkling repartee and love of the ladies ' company, one lady in particular. Genial Clayton Camp, ace religion student, is president of the Interfraternity Pledge Council. Don Winfield does his share in Pi Delta Psi, and is in the college choir. His rendition of Elmer ' s Tune was much in demand in the Bookstore last fall. Adolph Crew, a freshman, has distinguished himself early by having several of his poems published in issues of Quad. Another writer is Earl Mitchell, who writes for the Hilltop News and is on the staff of the annual. From music to medicine to writing, 5 ' ou ' ll find all sorts of boys in Beta Kappa. Paul Brooks is a clarinetist in the college orchestra. Walter Schultz is a member of Delta Phi Alpha. It is common knowledge that the Beta Kappa ' s give about the best parties on the campus, and they claim the distinction of having the pretties girls at their parties. The most successful of these were their various costume affairs at the house, most notable of which was their Farmer- Farmerette party. Their formal was the first one of the year, with Miss Anne Ross as leading lady, and was hailed by all as a great success. 96 Psi Chapter Front — Stewart, Lusk, Wingfield, Rittenhouse, Winfield, Kessler Middle — Sims, Mathieu, Walker, Lavies, Mitchell Back — Batson, Higgenbotham, Brooks, Deitenbeck, Martin, Haywood, ScHULTz, McQueen MEMBERS Edward Armstrong Paul Brooks Clayton Camp Adolph Crew Bill Deitenbeck Robert Evans Leon Goodwin William Haywood Roy Higgenbotham William Kessler Wallace King William Lavies James Lusk Gentry Martin Donald Matthieu J.

They have won the scholarship cup for two years in suc- cession, and they have innovated a new idea in the way of hell week — a Pseudo-Hell Week. This was the idea of Prexy Dee Moody; for a week all the actives become pledges and all the pledges become actives, and, according to pledges and actives alike, it ' s a roaring success. Dee Moody, Robert Mowry and Norton Cowart are members of Skull and Bones, and most any day may be seen wielding their scalpels over the body of some poor dead cat in the anatomy lab. In the field of politics, we again find Dee Moody, who is on the executive council, and with him Robert Mowry, and Luke Austin. John Graham is secretary of the Interfraternity Council. Medi- cine and music, that ' s the Delta Sigs. Troy Thompson is in the college orchestra, and in the choir are Arthur Hor- ton and Orian Truss. Orian, now in his sophomore year and little brother to ex-Prexy Carroll, is a member of the Y.W.C.A. cabinet. To round out their scope of activities and to prove that just because they are the boys who make the grades they aren ' t all bookworms, the Delta Sigs have officers and members in several other organizations on the campus, among them Toreadors, International Relations Club, Theta Sigma Lambda, Theta Chi Delta and Chi Sigma Phi. Of course the crowning point of the fun festivities for the year was the spring dance, but close behind it in the amount of fun had was the annual spring picnic. The Delta Sigs say they may not give the most parties during the year, but they do give the best.

But a good rush season brought their membership up to a fairly large chapter. The KA ' s started the athletic season by capturing the football trophy for the fourth straight time. They also took the badminton prize, an innovation which the new gym brought. In the field of campus politics, several responsible po- sitions were manned by Kappa Alphas. Tom Cleveland was president of the student body, Julian Bishop was the president of ODK, Hugh Locke was president of the freshman class, and Glenn Abernathy was one of the Quad editors. In the Executive Council three members were placed — John Lumpkin, Clayton Gore, and Glenn Aber- nathy. In the nature of honor awards Tom Cleveland and Julian Bishop were selected for Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities, and Prexy Cleveland was also chosen by the oracle of ODK. The three distinct divisions of the KA social year have come to be traditional. Immediately preceding the Christ- mas holidays, the customary Rabelaisian program and banquet were held. In March a Dixie Ball theme was used for the annual dance instead of the usual form, and was well carried out. The climax of the social year, as always, will be the house party in Florida. This will be the time when the freshmen are duly initiated into the realm of the elit and the seniors bow out to their suc- cessors. 100 ] Fhi Chapter Front — Locke, Hunter, O ' Connell, Bibby, Baker, Holt, Horton, Prude, R.

Rice Treasurer 1 HE Lambda Chi boys have a unique distinction. Only on Lambda Chis may one shirt be seen on the campus seven days in succession on seven different backs. The Lambda Chis say this is because they are the only fra- ternity which has most of its membership living in the house, but we have our doubts. Bull-shooting, party-giving and politicking are the principal activities engaged in by this energetic group of gents. Among the illustrious members are Howell Heflin, who, in addition to being president of the chapter, is president of Tau Kappa Alpha and business manager of the Southern Accent. Heflin and Happy (alias Charles) West are members of ODK, and Durelle Ruffin is presi- dent of the Senior Class. Richard Blanton distinguishes himself by being one of the foremost writers on the campus, being on the staffs of all three publications and a member of Childers ' coterie of composers of literary corn. Leland Culligan is president of the Geology Club and John B. Rice, promising young sawbones, holds office in both Theta Chi Delta and Skull and Bones. Joe Kiger is popularly known as the campus playboy, and any night his flashy convertible may be seen gracing the parking lot of some ritzy nightspot. The Lambda Chis are kept quite busy holding to their reputation of giving more parties than any other frater- nity on the campus and straightening the rock emblem on the lawn of the frat house. With last year ' s student coun- cil prexy John Howard gone and facing the prospect of the loss of master politician and bull-shooter Heflin, the Lambda Chis are rapidly losing their political prestige on the campus. However, to quote Hef, this is only a lapse between dynasties. 102 Theta Mu Zeta Chapter Front — Punches, Register, Outlaw, Adcock, Yieldixc, Maxwell, Hazlewood Middle — Moore, Rice, Ogburn, Heflin, Brown, Kiger, Blanton Buck — Downs, Hinman, Ruffin, Parker, H.

Not a large group, never- theless, they are strong, and boast a number of illustrious members. Three of the boys, to prove that they are a sober- minded group and not at all like other neighboring chap- ters, are members of the Y Cabinet. They are Homer Ellis, Shelton Key and Mac Gibbs. Gibbs and Key are also members of the choir and Chi Sigma Pi. Shelton Key, son of Dr. David Martin Key, is vice president of the local chapter of Eta Sigma Phi, and brings distinction to the school as well as his fraternity by having been elected national president of the organization. Homer Ellis is a member of the Inter-fraternity Pledge Council. A great addition to the chapter was the pledging of golden-voiced Rex Windham, tenor soloist with the college choir, and much in demand for singing engagements about town. Rex is a transfer from Troy State Teachers College, and shows promise of really doing big things with his voice. Steak fries, hayrides, and a formal dance comprised the majority of the social activities of this group.

Bill, an able and fre- quent imbiber of milk and other such muscle-building beverages, spends most of his time in the gym, the Hill- top News office and the place where his pin is located at present. He is senior manager of the Men ' s Intramural Sports division, and circulation manager of the paper. In its membership, this chapter boasts Bob Lively, the chubby editor of the Hilltop News, and several mem- bers of the paper staff, among who are Paul Gowan, Elbert Norton, Leon Boatner, Charles Prince and Dewey White. Another BMOC is Joe Horn, preacher ex-officio and president of Y.M.C.A. Joe is also a member of T.K.A. Brantley Wiley is rush captain of the group, and fills his position ably, except for one slip when he instigated the rushing of a Lambda Chi alumnus last fall. He rectified his mistake, however, and now looks carefully at his rushees. A credit to his work is the fine group of pledges taken into the chapter this year. Other men sprinkled in activities about the campus are Duff Leaver and Claude Snoddy in Skull and Bones. Snoddy is also a member of the choir, as are Paul Gowan and Charles Prince. Elbert Norton is on Interfraternity Pledge Council. Hanlin Scott carries off the government honors, being a member of the Executive Council. Treas- urer Henry Hanna is in Eta Sigma Phi. The SAE ' s also have the off-campus distinction of rivalling the KA ' s in their weekly attendance enmasse at the Plaza Grill. As far as social activities are concerned, the SAE ' s say they offer the most sociable group on the campus. Evi- dence of this is the number of vivacious parties they gave during the year, as well as their annual formal dance in the spring. [ 106 ] Alabama lota Chapter Front — B.

Other members who warble for Maestro Anderson are Bebe Faust, Louise Campbell, and Marguerite Hodges. Bebe did not confine her activities to the choir alone, but had the distinction of being a member of Mu Alpha, the orchestra, the ensemble, and the Y.W.C.A. cabinet. In addition to this, she manages to maintain a 2.4 average, as does dimunitive Louise Campbell. Alpha Chi supplies two of the prexies for other or- ganizations on the campus, also. Louise Smith, known throughout Alabama for her water-color exhibits, is Vice- President of the Spanish Club, and Doris Lawson is presi- dent of Kappa Delta Epsilon, national education frater- nity. Besides their annual formal dance, held on April 4t]i, the most outstanding jamboree of the year given by this group was the tea dance December 26th, when the pledges honored the actives. After the dance there was a Come-as-you-are breakfast, and they do say that young and old alike were amazed at the spectacles of some of the campus glamor girls appearing sans aid of cos- metics. The pledges were honorees at a steak fry held early in the fall at Lover ' s Leap, and later on both actives and pledges were honored at an Alumni Breakfast on Novem- ber 30. 108 . k4 Im Jl ' ' ■ • 1 Alpha Omega Chapter Fioiif — Hodges, Garrett, Campbell, McGehee, Boteler, Wright Middle — Mann, Faust, Jenkins Bullock, Smith, Sutherland, PlERSON Back — Carr, Williams, Dolvin, Grimes, Woody, Thomas, Hanson, Lawson, Hill, Freeman, Keiser, Panter MEMBERS Virginia Boteler Catherine Bullock Louise Campbell Kay Carr Marjorie Dolvin Bebe Faust Dorothy Garrett Mary Jena Grimes Katheryn Hanson Lora Hill Marguerite Hodges Glen Jenkins Helyn Keiser Doris Lawson Mildred McGehee WiLLA Mae Panter Nina Mae Pierson Louise Smith Carol Jean Sutherland Alma Thomas Mary Williams Mary Elizabeth Williamson Jean Woody June Wright 109 ALPHA OMICRON PI OFFICERS Mary Evelyn Lollar Prcsidetil Jayne Walton Vice-Presidenf RuTHE Griffith Secretary Felicia McLaughlin Treasurer Mary Evelyn Lollar Gene Smith Pan-Hellenic It seems that all the officers of A.O.Pi are well chosen, for each one of them brings several honors to the sorority, Prexy Mary Evelyn Lollar makes her presence felt in the executive council, Tri Tau, Pi Delta Psi, and Amazons. Jayne Walton also includes Pi Delta Psi and Amazons in her list of activities, and adds her membership in the Y Cabinet. Ruthe Griffith heads the newly organized biology fraternity, Chi Nu Tau. Social editor of the Hilltop News is the job ably filled by Felicia McLaughlin, known to friends and foes alike as Flea. In almost every organization on the campus you can find at least one girl who claims the distinction of being an A.O.Pi. On the Y Cabinet, in addition to Vice Prexy Jayne Walton, is Mary Myrtis Walsh, and on the Freshman Commission are Edna Jo Bowling, president of the Commission and Kitty Hurst. The arty touches in the annual were contributed by Mary Louise Nichols, and you ' ll also find her picture in the beauty section. In the musical sphere, there are Edna Jo Bowling, Lynn Chit- wood, Jean Duvall, Gene Smith and Mary Augusta Wood. Anne Brandon and Gene Smith are members of Alpha Lambda Delta. No mean laurel-gatherer is Miss Smith. Not only is she a member of the Bookstore clique, but if you ' ll look hard enough you ' ll find her just about every- where else on the campus, too. Among her activities are the executive council, Tri Tau, and being manager of the girls ' Softball tournament. In Tri Tau also are Mary Myrtis Walsh, vice president of the group, Kitty Hurst, and Joyce Rinks. The A.O.Pi formal this year was a Rose Ball, and proved to be one of the most successful dances of the year.

Mary Tiller, of the limpid brown eyes and pleasant expression, heads the sorority, and is also president of Pan- Hellenic. But she doesn ' t stop there, not Mary. She is a member of Amazons, The South Today, and the Woman ' s Athletic Association. Quite a varied list of activities. Other WAA girls in Gamma Phi are Mary Frances Cook, Katherine and Zoe Martin, and Robbye Tate. Cookie, as she is familiarly known here and at other nearby col- leges, also has the distinction of being in the beauty sec- tion of the annual. Robbye, in addition to her other ac- tivities, is on the Y.W.C.A. Cabinet and is a member of Amazons. Nina Abernathy is also a member of Amazons, as well as being on the executive council and Pan- Hellenic.

This year they have extended their activities to include athletics, journalism, the choir, the executive council and the college theatre. Dimunitive Julia Bouchelle is by far the most active member of the group. She is president of Amazons, chairman of the women ' s division of student government and a member of Pi Delta Psi, psychology group. Lil CtiUey is also a member of the student council, the college theatre, and, to prove that she is scholastically inclined, made Alpha Lambda Delta this year. Mary Elizabeth Mayes, a freshman, is on the student council. In the field of sports, Wita Jones and Ethel Mae Norton are members of the Women ' s Athletic Association. Jane Huddleston is co-editor of the society page for the Hilltop News. In Pan Hellenic, the KD ' s have President Addie Lee Dunn and Dorothy Brown. Cornelia Ousler is a member of the choir. The KD ' s gave two dances during the year, a tea dance during the Christmas holidays and a formal in the spring. One of the most successful of their affairs, from all re- ports, was a midwinter houseparty on some boat or other on some river or other. And they kept up their traditional continuous social function, their daily sojourn in the Bookstore. [ 114 1 Alpha Upsilon Chapter J.

Last year she gave Tom Cleveland a close race for president of the student body, and this year she is presi- dent of her sorority, Mortar Board and the Women ' s Ath- letic Association. In addition, she was chosen to represent Birmingham-Southern in the annual city Christmas Car- nival Parade. The favorite song of these girls is A Pi Phi Is an Angel in Disguise, and it seems that some of them aren ' t in disguise, for three members made the beauty section of the annual, Elizabeth Ann Jackson, Ann Berry and Re- becca Gray. Redheaded Becky is another BWOC among the Pi Phis, for she is one of the editors of Quad, and a member of Mortar Board, the choir and the college thea- tre. In this last she distinguished herself with her per- formance in The Male Animal, given in the fall. The variety of activities which the Pi Phis participate in is amazing, and spreads over the fields of theatre, music, journalism, chemistry and athletics, to say nothmg of the YW. And they say their campus courses aren ' t bad. Cornelia Banks is a member of Alpha Lambda Delta and associate editor of the Hilltop News, and also writes for the Birmingham News. Ann Blevins is clubications editor of the Hilltop News and writes for the Age-Herald. Katherine ( ' Tggie ) Moriarty was chosen Miss Sadie Hawkins on Sadie Hawkins Day. Clyde Gragg and Florence Price are on the executive council. Evelyn Beasley and Mary Richardson are soloists with the choir. Betty Ann Hard is a member of Mortar Board and sec- retary-treasurer of Theta Sigma Lambda and Theta Chi Delta. Ethel Moreland is president of Eta Sigma Phi. And the list of honors goes on and on. In addition to copping the intramural cup for volley- ball and second place for the basketball trophy, the Phi Phis have given a number of parties, among them two sport dances, a steak fry and several cookie shines.

These girls have the reputation of being quiet and retiring, but that does not mean that they are inactive. On the contrary, considering the smallness of their chapter, they get an enormous amount of work done. Tiny Ehzabeth Anne Smith is typical of the capability of the Theta Up ' s. She made Alpha Lambda Delta her freshman year, and has been a soloist with the choir since entering college. She is a member of Mu Alpha, as are Prexy Ritchie and Soula Smith. Soula is an accomplished Thespian, having had meaty parts in both Night Must Fall and The Male Animal. The orchestra numbers two Theta Up ' s in its personnel, Kathryn Belyeu and Jane Crissinger, both violinists. Dorothy Young is sec- retary of the Baptist Student Union, and Virginia Hum- phries is a member of both the Rusurbe Club and Tri Tau. Allie Christian is also a member of both organiza- tions, and of B.-S. U. Jane Frazier belongs to Theta Sigma Lambda. A formal in the spring for show, and several informal parties for fun were among the social activities indulged in by the Theta Up ' s during the year. [ 118 1 Xz Chapter Front — Brown, S.

Reynolds Treasurer Martha Anne Paty Dolly Pope Pan-Hellenic Vv ITH ex- Quad Cover Girl Paty as the chief attrac- tion, the Zeta ' s managed to shp one on the other sororities last fall and pledge more girls than all the other groups put together. The remarkable thing about this was the fact that the Zeta ' s were rumored to have had six actives in the chapter at that time. The pledges have disproved the old saying that quan- tity does not make quality, for they have definitely added quality to the chapter. In fact, the actives have had a hard time keeping up with the laurel-grabbing the pledges have done right and left. Just to mention a few, Wilhe Nell Biggs has confounded local Zeta tradition and repu- tation by making Alpha Lambda Delta at the end of her first semester. Aiding Active Ann Elizabeth Reynolds, who is president of Y.W.C.A. as well as a Mortar Boarder and secretary of K.D.E., are Ann Ross, Margaret Silliman, Marjorie Angel, Dorothy Dorse and Willie Nell Biggs,, all on the Y Freshman Commission. A very outstand- ing songster and soloist with the choir is tall, stately Kathryn Horton, who is also a member of Mu Alpha and the Rusurbe Club. Kathryn has made quite a name for herself in musical circles, and is a transfer from Troy State Teachers College. Jeanne Waters is also in the choir and Mu Alpha, and Edith Plosser is a member of the latter or- ganization. Mary Chenault was chosen as one of the beauties to grace the beauty section of the Southern Ac- cent. Among the actives are two girls who stand out in the field of sports. Martha Gary Smith, besides being on the Y Cabinet, is women ' s golf manager, and Pat Clancy, Lae Revue beauty, is archery manager. The sport dance given by the Zeta ' s at Hollywood Stables was one of the liveliest of the year. At Christmas time the girls gave a tea dance, and during the year there were numerous steak fries, suppers, and the like. The crowning event of the year was the formal in the sprmg. 120 Alpha Nu Chapter l-njiit — Ma.ncin, Dorsl, Dawkins, Fagax, Lister, Fauci;tt, Barratt, Chenault Middle — Clancy, S.

Every day the natatorium was crowded with students; this is a testament to its place in our college life. For it, we are much indebted to President Paty and the physical educational directors. When the building was opened in the fall, broad smiles were on the faces of the persons who were responsible for it. They are proud of it, and rightly so. With the passing of football, the gym fills a gap in student life. Now sports are not confined to a small group of picked players. Everyone may play, and everyone does. The gym is dedicated to the building of a strong, healthy student body. Vvt. ■. ■•■ ' -T ' WOM Sports Mentors Van HouTEN and Turner take time out for a pic. Inspired by the leadership and natur- al wit of Miss Helen Turner and her capable understudy Mrs. Gene McCoy Van Houten, girls took a greater part in the Intramural program this year than ever before. They played, swam, learned intricate precision and folk dances, and when nothing offered itself, they talked of playing. In short, they practically lived in Miss Turner ' s office. Contrary to previous custom, when the baseball season came along, they actually seemed to enjoy the game. The program for women is not a new one as is that of the men but is one fol- lowed fairly close for a number of years and one gaining in value because of the new gymnasium and the great amount of [ 124 1 EN ' S Intramural equipment there. Women were never bothered by the change from Inter-col- legiate athletics so the new order hasn ' t had much effect on them. Besides managing women ' s athletic ac- tivities, Miss Turner, known as Helen to old students, finds ample time to act as the go-between for the Executive Coun- cil and student body in as far as C(if s Paw is concerned and to direct the many phases of Sadie Haic ' kiiis Day and May Day, two most important student occa- sions. She is also a most affable person.

No one seems to know the answer to this either. Time was when only Amazons played and even pretended they liked the sport. All through the spring it was a common sight to see potential Didricksons at the far end of the bowl actually enjoying the game. VOLLEYBALL L L Volleyball, inherent women ' s game, was one of the most popular with them this past year. There was good play for all teams and the tour- nament was as close as any other of the season. The game was so popular that there was almost open warfare between all Badminton and Volley- ball adherents. The voUeyers won out. Nu- merical Superiority, said the Badmintons. BASKETBALL L L Women ' s Basketball turned out some players of professional calibre who could dribble and shoot with the best of the male contingent. Played before the end of the first semester to free the courts for the men, the race was nip and tuck between the Independents and Pi Phis but the championship game ended 21 to 20 in favor ot the Independents. BADMINTON L L L Popular sport that it was this year there were hardly enough courts in the gym to permit all interested parties to play. So they compromised and took their exercise in shifts. Last year ' s tour- nament, held in Studac, was nothing and no com- petition as compared to this. This is probably the reason for the huge increase in women ' s activity. Rew Sinks One in Gym Game [ 126 in SPORTS SWIMMING L L L More popular with girls than with boys, swim- ming suffered a setback because there was no heat and there was some talk of opening an ice rink. . . . but no, the water was drained. When spring came, back came female participation in acquatic sport. Wh} ' didn ' t the men swim? They watched from the rail. TABLE TENNIS z z z Most popular sport on the campus, Table Ten- nis has been moved from the Studac auditorium to the lobby of the gym. There there is never a moment when the pellet is silenced, nevera a mo- ment when the rhythmic tap which marks a fast game absent. Nellie Renegar won this year ' s tournament with what was generally acknowl- edged as sterling play. [ 127 ] The Women GOLF z. I I Women seem to take to golf just as ducks to water or anyway that is the im- pression conveyed by their interest in the sport. It could be that it is a men ' s game but so is baseball. In the golf classes there are more women than men and at some future date it would not be surpris- ing for a woman to win the Intramural Golf Cup. in SPORTS 11 T h MEN ' S Coach Englebert and Intramural Director Battles A. .FTER a first year hampered by the absence of the uncompleted Physical Education Building, the Intramural pro- gram gained full stride this season under the expert supervision and coordinating abilities of Athletic Director Bill Battle and Coach Ben Englebert. Of course there was some inconvenience afforded by the lack of heating facilities but this was rectified even before the winter sport season ended and play went on to a new high as far as participation was con- cerned. This activity far surpassed the 65% of the student body taking part last year and has been statistically approxi- mated as being close to 87%. Under the Civilian Defense setup Coach Battle has added new duties in the 130 Intramurals way of teaching First Aid courses to all interested. He has also fostered various exercises designed to make the populace more fit during this time of international strife. Coach Englebert has carried on the duties of teaching Math and umpiring all intramural bouts. Ably assisting the heads of the pro- gram, the Intramural Board, representing the various fraternal and independent or- ganizations taking part, has jFamiliarized students with the rules of the system and been helpful in every way. These men are elected by their groups and have been largely responsible for the stimulation of student interest and activity since last year. Bill Hudson — Senior Manager JouN Graham — Foofball Paul Hamilton — Fall Sports Emmett Gibbs — Volleyball John Lumpkin — Basketball Houston Sorenson — Softball Gas Tyburski — Referee Men ' s INTRAMURAL FOOTBALL l l l With the disbanding of the not so successful independent league, those teams which had stood up over the summer joined the stronger and older fraternity organization making a total of ten teams in that group. The frats didn ' t mind since it gave them more games and activity. As to the results — they were the same as last year. The Kappa Alpha machine rolled over all opposition with their three squads and climaxed the season with a victory on Sadie Hawkins Day over a poorly coached but game All-Star team. BASKETBALL L Z Basketball in the new gym after playing in Munger Bowl last year was a real pleasure and Si p y t s drew more players than last year. The result was the same as before but not as convincing. Strong bidders for the titled retained by the KA ' s was the Beta Kappa quintet sparked by the high scor- ing of Adolph Crew. SOFTBALL z z z The Softball tourney was its usual success this season, producing several players of almost pro- fessional ability as well as many surprises. New pitchers were unearthed and the typical star plays were to be found running wild. Brown goes ' round left end Ball in Play BUT Reddick HOOPS IT BADMINTON III Indoor Badminton increased activity this year with the Kappa Alphas winning the team cham- pionship. Bibb Allen, KA, walked off with the individual honors in the hotly contested race. All in all there was a lot of fun to be had even by rank amateurs in chasing the shuttlecock across the floor of the gym courts. - Jeff Swings — Too Late In or out of the drink More INTRAMURAL This must be the game of the aged for youth stood no chance against the onslaught of the faculty six, and this made the second champion- ship in two years for the team, the only one in active competition with the student body. Sparkplugs of the squad were the two coaches and Dr. Ab, found any day working out on one of the courts. TABLE TENNIS Z z Laughed at when ' Southern abandoned Inter- collegiate competition in favor of Intra- murals. Table Tennis, called Ping Pong by most players, came further into its own this year by drawing a larger number of entrants in the tcurney and more players for pleasure than ever before. SPORTS GOLF L L L Coach Englebert must have been psychic when he instituted a golf class in the Physical Education Depart- ment last fall. By the sec- ond semester it was the most popular course in the school if numbers have anything to do with it. HANDBALL L L L True to the prophesy of the News Sporting Ed, Paul Hamilton came out on top in the Handball Tournament with fraternity brother Dcss Cleveland right with him un- til the finals. TENNIS III The renins se.ison this year scirted when Irish Champion George Lyttleton-Rogcrs came to the campus and played an exhibi- tion match with Wood Herrcn, Tom Cleveland, and Bill Morgan. Highlight of the match was the singles game with Herren.
