Cecil e. abernethy, whose influence has always been highly conducive to the development of ambition, integrity, and love of learning in us his students, his zeal for advancement in the stand- ards of the college, his personal code of ethics, and his vast knowl- edge of the esoteric and romantic have in large part made the latter years of our education enriched beyond our hopes, it is under his guidance that we have learned to appreciate the present through cherishing the literature of the past, the memory of our days at birmingham-southern will always be influenced by our veneration and affection for doctor ab. n r iiaFir« classes took up a large part of the days with chapters to be devoured and notes to be taken and forgotten, the most pleasant way to study was out on the lawn, but it seemed that those study groups always turned into gab sessions, still we must have learned some- thing even if -it was only how to balance armloads of books. louncl :i littli- lime to stop in at tlic bookstore to be social over a coke or cup of toffee, the Ixxjkstore was the center of extra-curricular activity wlii( li some- time spilled over into the cars parked outside, these served as study halls, date parlours, lockers, meeting places, chapter rooms, etc. so well, in fact, that no one ever had the least doubt where to find somebody — down at the bookstore, of coursel tK o «Ame th « - some things never seemed to change, term papers, like death and taxes, were always with iis and were unfailing tedious and painful, even a sympathetic friend didn ' t help much, another trial was those sandwiches, the wise learned to look before they leaped because you never knew what you would find. 1 -J • f o er Ant ower repetition makes anything bearable or so it seenictl to be with convocation, a few ajireeal)le soul-, ac- tually got tlure early, probably in hopes of li.i iri ; a half hour of rret lit added, another regnl.ii i.isk was l M)king for the mail which, although not a chore in itself, was occasionally made one l) the position of the boxes. tlkere iwei e pastimes the athletes got out on the tennis courts and worked themselves into a lather while the sedentary went in for self improvement and easy chairs, it was hard to decide which was more difficult — chasing a tennis ball or trying to adjust that record player, each had its own reward. of iM l4incl« the liighbrows argued whellur j ood is the uliiiii;iic reality vvliile the lowbrows argued li ilui it ' s Ijciur to leave the bid in no trump or o (il)i(l. neither question was ever settled but it was pleasam U) explore the possibilities. fi usti iition we were always meeting with defeats of one kind or anotlier — either the candy machine stuck or the pro- fessor asked iis the one thing we didn ' t know, but we ascribed it all to character development and went blithely on. an because we knew that with a little careful ])l.inning, our turn would come and it always did.

LINWOOD UNDERWOOD How parsimonious can you be? tko %out:K r n The Southern Accent is the yearbook of Birmingham-Southern College. The editor and business manager are elected by the popular vote of the student body and are free to select their own staff members, subject only to the supervision of the Publica- tions Board. It is the task of the editor to plan and execute the layout of the entire book while the business manager sees to it that advertising space is sold in suffi- cient quantities to keep the venture in the black. Since the Accent is a record of the year at Southern, the staff endeavors to include as many phases of student activity as is possible. A complete photographic record is made of classes, sports, special events, and the trivia of daily happenings in order that the student may always have in hand a tangible memory of the happy days spent on the Hilltop. Other less pleasant mem- ories include those the editor has of trying to get people to show up in sufficient numbers to have class and group pictures made. Fhe business manager, too, has un- happy recollections of contracts and red ink. In spite of the minor dra vbacks, how- ever, the Southern Accent remains one of the most interesting and enjoyable stu- dent activities.

S 3 3 The Hilltop News is the weekly news- paper about college events published by Southern students. The editor and busi- ness manager are chosen in the general election held once a year in the Spring and hold office for the follo ving four quarters. All actions of the News staff are reviewed by the Publications Board which also checks the financial status regularly. The editor and his selected staff cover the news events at Southern fully and the paper includes not merely ne vs but editorials, social happenings, sports events, cartoons, and features. The business manager and her aides sell and lay out ads and keep the books well bal- anced. The early Monday deadline in sures the delivery of the paper on Friday morning and the flunking of any test the editor may have on Tuesday. From the often poorly planned and executed is- sues of the var years, the Hilltop News has become a skillful and excellent graph of student life.

Its membership is composed of those s ' omen from out of tou ' n and those who cannot tear themselves away from the Hilltop even though they live in the city. All together for once kail Li ing at Andrews Hall is a unique experience, so the inmates say. The commun- ity life gets to be a strain at times what with a loudspeaker blaring out peculiar mes- sages at odd hours such as Jerry Culver — he ' s here or Jackie Wise — you have a visitor, at last. 1 he girls seem to bear up gloriously, however. The room mate sys- tem is occasionally confusing since all the girls wear their room mate ' s clothes thereby making the situation from the back most bewildering. One hardly knows whether to yell at Rosie Johnston or not — she might turn out to be Dot Kicker wearing that blouse of Rosie ' s that she particularly likes. In addition to this, the dorm road is a stumbling block to the popularity of all the girls since only the most devoted of swains dare to brave its perils.

The Stray Cireeks was the result. .Vltliough they have onlv Ijeen organized for a comparatively short period, nevertheless tlie Stray Greeks ha e become an integral part of Greek organizations on the campus. Their socials, picnics, and dances attract as much attention as comparable acti ities of the cam- pus fraternities. The Stray Greeks sponsor yearly The Ugliest Man on the Campus contest for the purpose of determining tliat pulcliritudinous indi idual.

The Starlight Opera, which is now in its fifth year, is one of the pet projects of the students and faculty and the project which undouljtedly requires the most time, work, and talent. Local singers combine with im- ported name talent to produce light oper- ettas for the entertainment of not only the students of Southern but the people of Bir- mingham as well. Mimger Bowl is converted nito an open air theater where such stars as Mimi Benzell, Donald Gage, Ruby Mercer, Arthur Kent, and Johnny Silver appear in operettas like those of the 1948 season — The Fortune Teller and New Moon. The Starlight OjDera has come to mean much work and much fun to the students, and the people from off the campus have come to look for- ward to the Starlight Opera as a sinnmer eve- ning full of pleasant entertainment, shirt sleeves, cokes, picturesque costimies, and lilt- ing songs. The Starlight Opera is one of Southern ' s most colorful institutions. stAi ligkt op i a lake oil ()iir NJiotA ami liaiil oul llic lidcllc — it ' s Sadie Hawkins Day on llic llilltop.

The Spring production was Knight ol the Jiurniiig Pestle starring (.. M. Dendy and was atdainied one ol the best plays ever to be gi en in the city. The Fall draniati ation was .Alice in Wonderland starring Kitty Holder and it was received by the students as a charming and always won- deilul ]jiece of nonsense. The Spring of 1919 saw The Rivals in production as the latest in the Theater ' s ex- | erinients with the traditional plays of the past being brought up to date for (he entertainment of modern audiences. In between times, the Col- lege Theater found time to work up entertain- ni e n t s for the .Miss Southern .Accent contest and give their profes- sional aid to the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta •H..M.S. Pinafore. The members of the College Theater are all too prone to agree with Pinnoccio when he sang Hi diddle de dee — an actor ' s life for me! cats Catspaw — the activity that brings deUght to many, terror to come, and chagrin to others, those imfortimate few who find themselves being lampooned by their companions. Catspaw, along with Sadie Hawkins, is a time of informality for faculty and students. On the night of Catspaw anything can happen and nearly always does. This year, for example, Mrs. Hale showed lip wearing the May Queen crown backward, ] [r. Cath- cart played Summertime on a soup kettle, and Dr. Butts sang a soprano aria while beguilingly perched on top of a piano. The faculty stunt was mild, however, compared to the mass head-chopping that went on in student stunts. The judges, though weak from laug lied their strength to decide the group led by Bill Travis was the best. After it was all greasepaint may have been a little hard to get off, but everyone agreed that Catspaw the cat ' s meow. hter, ral- over, the is really m A In the spring a )oi.ing man ' s lancy may lightly turn to thoughts ot lo c, Ijiil a young woman ' s fancy turns to speculation as to the possessor of the May Queen crown. At least, the thouglits of the young women at Southern do. To rule as Queen of the May on the first day of Spring is considered the highest honor attainable by a senior woman. Students at Southern celebrate May Day vith idyllic abandon, and the bursting greenery of spring is accompanied by vhite tidle, garlands ot Uowers, and laughter. For one day only the fairest and loveliest of Southern co-eds reigns supreme, surrounded by her beauty court, and has as her subjects the student body of Southern. Alay Day is a day of tradition, of iiappincss. and of beauty at Southern. I O il u a t i o n As the gentle annth of spring begins to turn into the heat of simimer, graduation day, the long-awaited Nirvana, comes at last. Then the soaring cohnnns o eilook a scene of traditional acailemic sj)lendor. Tiie sciiolarly black donates an unaccustomed austerity to its ne()|3hyte wearers but someho • the faces beneath the mortar lioaids are not all smiles. The last ritual — the speeches, the farewells, the diploma — pass all too quickly to the seniors now about to lose these thinos forever. since the abandonment of intercollegiate sports years ago, the intramin al program at southern has gro ' n increasingly interesting and enthusiastic, any time of the day or year the hearty few can be seen leaping over tennis nets, hurling themselves from diving boards, and engaging in free-for-alls for the sake of good clean sport, what a small price a few bruises are for a plaque or a cup. the sports program at southern is carefully planned to inchide well- rounded, healthful activities for both men and vomen. it is one of the integral parts of otir college life. « po 1 f % y-m fc i% Jm t i ack - Kappa Alpha, with an abundance of track material filling its ranks, sped past the last-year-title-holding A.T.O.

Next in line for honors was the KA Peach, George Taylor, who had a total of fifteen and a half points coming from a first place in the shotput, a tie for first place in the high jump, and a third in the broad jump and discus. As shown by the to- tals, this track meet was really a battle between the winning K.A. ' s and the runner-up A.T.O. ' s, but the finishing order was as follows: first. Kappa Alpha; second.

They had lost games to Georgia Tech, Auburn, Alabama (twice), Howard, and Mississippi College, and had beaten Sewanee and Millsaps. Having fifteen or more games yet to play, the Cats were still imtried, so to speak. Throughout the remainder of the season, they were expected to come up over the .500 mark and play the brand of ball that the Hilltop crowds want to see. The Intramural Basketball Tournament opened with the Ensley Independents defend- ing their title against a league of sixteen teams.
