Into his mouth vJent our Heroes in Grey. Out of the chaos of reconstruction, from the remnants of that old South vJith 5jv its cultured, slumberous atmosphere, has come a new people to build a new and greater South. i i It is for the graduates of our schools today to live and tOork for a greater South and a greater America. 1 ■ Ages hence as you turn these pages may thej bring back happy reminiscences along with the old familiar faces and revive many pleasant memories of College Days at S. T. C. With this thought in mind, we present this the fifth volume of the Midlander. y DEDICATION le ' ' fsic ; npHE Old South is gone but toda ) its ideals, culture, traditions, manners and chivalry remain and are exemplified in a true Southern lady whose charming man- ners, loyal devotion, high ideals and ster- ling character have served as an inspiration to the student body since the birth of this college. Because she has won for herself a place in the hearts of all by her untiring effort and friendliness — because of their love for her — the Senior class of ' 30 and the Staff affectionately dedicate this volume of the 1930 MiDLANDER TO MISS KATHERINE MONOHAN S; i (]oVERN ' oR Henry H.

A. Faulkinberry, S. T. C. has enjoyed one of the most successful years in athletics that the school has ever experienced. Coach has suc- ceeded in driving his charges to a great majority of victories in football, baseball .nnd basketball. Through his recent successes Coach has become recognized as one of the best coaches in the Southland, and certainly the students of S. T. C. are ready to accord him the honor of being the best in Dixie. Mr. Faulkinberry is not on] a coach, but he is a moulder of character. No man or woman ever worked for him without being inspired to bigger and better things. His firm, though frientlh manner of approach, has won hini a place in the heart of e -er student ho e ' er came in contact with him. C. L. Cummins, Associate Coach Pap, as he is known by the stu lents, is just one of the boys. He has proved to be a very valuable assistant to Coach Faulkiidierrv. He has a thorough knowledge of football, baseball and basketball, and has helped to pull the teams over many rough spots. Pap too has won the respect of the student body. He has proved a real friend to many students, and is always willing to lend a helping hand. S. T. C. uould not be S. T.

Captain John Punk Dixon was one of the best leaders that ever piloted a gridiron team for the Blue and White. Not only did he display himself in leadership, but in his performance on the grid. He is one of the best tackles that ever doinied the cleated shoe and a bright future as a coach and teacher seems to be in store for him. Captain Molly Elm er Malone, running guard on the basketball team, had one of his greatest years in the past season. He starred in every game in which he played and proved himself an able leader. Wherever Molly goes next xear we feel that lie will succeed to the very highest degree. Luck to Mol. Wilma Towry, who piloted the Blue and White lassies through one of the best seasons in the history of the school, has hung up an enviable record during her three years on the varsity s(|uad. Although handicapped by injuries part of the season while she was in the game her performance was of the highest type, and was always her best. Chuck Coleman, who pilots our baseball team and cavorts around the hot corners, has been with us for three years as a member of the baseball team. His play has always been of the highest caliber, and as a leader on the diamond he has no e )ual. Chuck is sure to make a go of this thing called life wherever he is and the school wishes him the best of luck. 72 The iMidlander - ' - ' Nineteen Thirty FOOTBALL John Dixon Cti ltiiii Mdiiiii i-r John Bass End S.

T. C. has passed through in the past five or six years. The schedule was a hard one and the Blue and White cohorts of Coach Faulkinberry came through with flying colors. The home games were not as colorful as they might have been, but this was due to the fact that two of the best games were cancelled by the opponents, and games with the freshman elevens of nearby colleges were used to fill the vacancies. Coach Faulkinberry was handicapped by the terribly hot weather during the training camp era, thus making hard work next to impossible. The early games were played under this strain and the team showed up admirably under these conditions. The team was molded from ten letter men, several of 1928 ' s reserves and half a dozen freshmen. A rugged defense and a dashing offense, teamed with a never-ending fighting spirit, were the keynotes of success made prevalent by Coach Faulkinberry. S. T. C, 0; Chattanooga, 40 The opening game of the season played on Chamberlain Field in Chattanooga with the University of Chattanooga, the S. I. A. A. champions of 1928, proved to be disastrous. How- ever, S. T. C. gained greatly by the experience of the game. The team representiiig a larger college and more aged in the techniijue of football trimmed the lilue and White, 40 to o. The game was far more interesting than the score indicates. ChattaniMiga scored twenty points in each half, but every marker was made through a team of fighting, never relenting. Blue and ' hite ]erse e(l plavers. S. T. C, 0; West Kentucky, 19 l his game pla ed under the scorching rays of old Sol sappetl e er ounce of the -italit from both teams. Had the game been played on any later day the score might have been different and West Kentucky was reinforced better vith brawn in the line, and more reserves in hackfleld material, thus overpowering the Blue and A ' hite by sheer brawn and muscle, coupled with a smart type of team play. 74 The SMidlander ineteen Thirty •HOBSON, Full Rl ' ST, Tackle Templeton, Taikle ClIAKI.ES, End Mesume of the Season S. T. C, 6; Cumberland, S. T. C. drank deep frcim the cup (if victciry and conepiest «hen they tnrneil the liulldogs back on the latter ' s field, 6-0. This was the local ' s first of half a dozen victories and a well deserved one. The game was played in a sea of mud and amply supplied with sky juice by old Jupe Pluvius and a battle de luxe. Cumberland threatened in the first (|uartcr, but the Blue and White forward wall broke through and smeared the Bulldogs and never again did it growl with any degree of success. S. T. C. on several occasions were on the threshold of scoredom only to have slippery underfcoting to rob them. Late in the third quarter a pass down the sidelines netted the winning touchdown. The Bulldogs fought hard, but a superior team halted every move made to score. S. T. C, 21; Alabama Teachers, 7 A trio of touchdowns in the last half, coupled with a safety, proved to be the undoing of a strong Alabama teacher team in the local ' s 1929 debut. The visitors made a bid for victory early in the game when a fleet back, stepped, pushed and fought his way through the entire Blue and White team, sixty yards for a touchdown. The score at the half stood 7-0 against S. T. C. The locals came back with vim in the last half and smothered Alabama under a barrage of passes, line bucks and end runs to count three times and add one point for a 21 to 7 victory, a safety added the other two points. A fighting Teacher team fought to overcome a lead and after accomplishing this marched on to a glorious victory. S. T. C, 0; Maryville, 6 Coach Faidkinbcrry carried his griil warriors up to Marwille for their first night game. The Blue and White responded nobly under the handicap and beat back every attack that the opponent offered until a last minute drive netted Maryville a ' -o victory. The S. T. C. boys never gave in until the last whistle found them fighting to score deep in Maryville ' s territory. The Blue and White played great football in this game and deserved to win, but fate had the cards attached against thein. The great code says humble in victory, glorious in defeat. Such a motto could be applied to the Blue and White after this engagement. 75 « ' The idlander ' -U.Li ' ■ , ' Nineteen Thirty Hendricks, Cenler Moore, Ouarirr Thompson-, Half HiNDMAV, Full S. T. C, 13; Vandy Frosh Reserves, This game vas secured to fill the schedule after a larger school had cancelled with S. T. C. Coach Fauikinherry used his s iuad in annexing this %vin which under ordinary circumstances would have heen an overwhelming win. The line played stellar football and the kicking, rniming and passing of the backs was outstanding. The touchdowns were made by ofF-tackle plays and end runs, coupled with timely passes. S. T. C, 6; Murray, Ky., The Blue and White in aded the stronghold of the Murray, Ky., Thoroughbreds and emerged triumphant over their ancient rivals, 6-0. This marked the first defeat of a Thoroughbred team on their own grid in the history of the school. This game, played on a wet, slippery field, was one of the best played by the local team during the year. Tliey went into the game to defeat their age old rivals and never did they falter until they had accomplished their feat. Murray fought the locals hard, but the Thoroughbreds were beaten at the post and kept on the outside track duriiig the entire game. S. T. C, 13; Sewanee Frosh, 7 Another game scheduled to fill the vacancy supplied by a more worthy opponent was an- nexed by the Blue and White. A driving line attack and an intercepted pass proved too much for the baby Tigers. Although the score does not indicate the fact, S. T. C. was vastly superior to the Tiger team in every department. Two teams were used in subduing the oppnnents. With only a few seconds tn play an intercepted pass netted the visitors a touchdown and the point was added after time was up. S. T. C, 13; Piedmont, Piedmnnl Cnllege frcim Demarest, CJa., invaded the lair iif the 15lue and White and were defeated, 13-0. The field was wet and soggy, and a steady rain fell throughout the game. Line plays were the only ones that were u:ed with any marked success by either team. 76 The SMidlander ■ JT , Nineteen Thirty WOKSHAM, Taikh- llAKKIS, (ilUll l Ckockhk, Guard Smiiii, Half sume of the Season S. T. C, 13; T. P. I., 13 This game prcivcd tn In- the nrl■at ■ t thriller of the season. Although lioth teams were hampered by zero weather, they displayed a great ability to play football. T. P. 1. got off to an early start when they crashed over for a touchdown in the first quarter. A fumbled punt by S. T. C. resulted in a score for the Eagles early in the second quarter. Here the Blue and White halted all further efforts of the Eagles to score. The half ended, 13-0, in favor of T. P. I. The Blue and White came back with bared fangs in the second half and clipped the wings and tail feathers for the Eagles throughout the remaining time of play. On several occasions S. T. C. threatened to score, only to have hands inimbed by cold drop passes behind the goal line. Finally the Blue and White completed a pass for a touchdown, but the point failed. As the light of day was fast slipping into twilight a Teacher back crashed into the Tech line for a touchdown followed by a pass that netted a point and the score was tied. Only one play was run during the remaining seconds to play. This marked an era of good-byes for several S. T. C. stars and they displayed great tight and ability in their closing game. Others were climbing the first rung in the ladder of football glory and came through with flying colors. S. T. C. loses the valuable service of Captain John Punk ' ' Dixon, Charles, Bass, Askins and Templeton, due to graduation this year. These boys have covered themselves with glory this year as well as those of the past. Captain Dixon has played four years on the team, and has always given his best to his colors. Askins and Charles also played throughout their entire college career. Bass and Templeton playing their first year with S. T. C. ' s varsity have given their all in every game. To lose such men will weaken the team considerably, but with their records to inspire those who return, Coach Faulkinbcrry should have a great team in 1930. 77 The SMidlcinder ' ■m- — ' — ■ — - ' ' -XL , ' Nineteen Thirty Football Squad Froiil Roir Left to Rii lit PuCKEiT, Braog, Tempi.

C enjoyed one of the most successful basketball seasons that they have had in several years, the boys winning sixteen games and losing six. The girls von eleven and lost two. This is as enviable a record as any college could desire. Coach Faulkinberry had four of his letter men return for the season in the boys ' division and six girls of the Southern championship team of 1929. With these and a great crop of candidates for both teams he rounded out a pair of teams that would be a credit to any school. The boys opened their season with a victory over the Ilomr Jfiunuil quint of Murfrecsboro, the final score being 46-22. The next game with T. P. I. was dropped by a 30-29 count. This was a very interesting game and provided plenty of thrills for the spectators. The Ideal .Aces of Nashville fell before the attack of the Blue and White, 19-13. The game was plaved in Nash ' ille an l the local team should have won by a much larger score, but stateness handicappetl them greatly. The Rockvale Independents were the next victims, S. T. C. winning by an overwhelming margin of 54-22, Coach Faulkinberry using three teams in this fracas. V ' anderbilt, one of the S. T. C. ' s ancient rivals, came next. Coach carried his team to Nash- ville and brought home the bacon on a large scale. The Blue and White attack proved to be extremely troublesome to the Commodores and when the final whistle blew S. T. C. was resting on the long end of a 45-31 score. ' anderbilt scf)red first and it looked as if S. T. C, was in for a bad night, but they rallied to the cause and swept the ChiUI and Black ipiint off their feet in their attack on the basket. We eked out a 28-26 win over West Kentucky in the Teachers ' gym, the visitors rally towards the last of the game almost upsetting the lead gathered by the locals in the first half. The following week the team journeyed up to Conkeville and gained sweet revenge at the expense of the Eagles frr an early season defeat. When the game ended S. T. C. was on the long end of a 36-32 score. Coach Faulkinberry invaded Nashville for a third time and this time returned ivith the scalps of the V. M. U. A. Peps in his belt. The locals played at the height of their ability in Aiming the Hebrew |uint back. They were forced to come from behind on several occasions and the score was tied on a dozen occasions. S. T. C. was just right and when such was the case the opponents were turned back in defeat. 80 ' sv M|:y ' S7 ■ The mxdlcinder , ' Nineteen Thirty Davis, C.miir i ' l IIIM I ' SON , ■ nllllllit lliND.viAx, Center UiltKN, J-OIILlllil Mesume of the Season Murray, Ky., rame ti) S. T. C. bent on taking the game hack to the hluegrass region, Imt our team backed its ears and kicked the Thoroughbreds hard in winning a 39-29 victory. This was a very interesting game, and both teams vere in first rate condition. The Teachers next invaded the West Kentucky gymnasium and brought home a 35-33 vic- tory. . ' gain a last-minute rally almost overcame the lead piled up early in the game. Piedmont College came here fresh from a win over the Jewish Progressive Club of Atlanta, but were beateii back and the final score showed another victory for the Teachers, 32-23. S. T. C. annexed a second win over Cumberland by a 42-24 score, Coach Faulkinberry using two teams to pile up the big score. The Peps from Nashville came out with spirit of revenge attached to their belt, and carried out their intentions by trimming the locals, 3 .-28. It looked like the Teachers would eke out a win, but the Hebrew (|uint overcame the Teachers and ended on the top of a 36-28 score. V ' anderbilt gained sweet revenge at the expense of the Blue and White by beating us 31-30 on our own floor. The locals fought hard and almost came through, but the disfjualification of several men handicapped the team to such a great extent that the necessary drive was absent from the Teacher attack. The Pedagogues handed a fourth Nashville team defeat when they trampled the Burke Terrors, 34-30. Nashville teams suffered severely at the hands of Blue and White team during the season. To close the local season Coach Faulkinberry brought the Sewanee Tigers down to have their tail t visted and sent back to their mountain stronghold on the short end of a 32-26 score. At no time during the game did the visitors lead in the scoring. The visitors were simply outclassed and could not hajulle tlie Teacher quint, nor could any other team have beaten us that night. This game closed the local season for the boys. Captain Malone, Charles and Bass played their last game clad in the Blue aTid White on the local floor. All played wonderful basketball an l it was a fit game in which to write finis to their careers. Having received membership to the Mississippi Valley Conference, the team went to Memphis to take part in the conference tournament. Thev won their first game from C aruthersville, Mo.. 34-20, but lost to West Tennessee Teachers College by a 42-22 score in the semi-finals. After all, we can ' t win all of them, but ve got our share this season. The idlander uJl Nineteen Thirty ■ ' C ' APIAIN Tn VR , Forivard Palmer, Foi aiit Watkins, Guard Girls ' Basketball Resume of the Season The girls opened their season in Lebanon by winninfi a 44-19 game from Cum- berland University. The Teachers completely outclassed their rivals in every depart- ment of the game. Next came our ancient rivals from Cookeville and the Blue and White beat them, 33-24. Coach Faulkinberry used his entire squad, but the visitors ' last quarter rally forced him to put his regulars back into the game. Our co-eds then continued to trample opponents under foot b winning another game from Cumberland by the overwhelming score of 45-1(1. The game was far more interesting than the score might seem to portray it, for the Blue and White lassies displayed great ability in piling up the score. Against the Jackson Y sextette the girls piled up their tallest score of the season, scoring fifty-seven points, while their opponents counted only twenty-one. The game with the West Kentucky team proved to be much easier than it was even hoped to be. The team that conquered the Southern championship team last year fell before a fast driving Teacher offense by a 37-18 .score. The game with Milligan College proved to be the best one of the season. The visitors held a one-point lead at the end of the half, but the local co-ed sextette rallied and won out by a 21-20 count. The student body sided greatly in this game. AV ' hen the team needed spurring on they rose to the occasion with lusty cheers which caused the team to fight harder and beat back their foes. The trip to Jacksonville. Ala., pro ed disastrous to the team, for the Alabamans beat back our attack by a 33-23 score. This was the first loss of the season, but our girls gave all they had. The .school could ask for no more. The idlander ' Nineteen Thirty Keeling, Center Phillips, Center Savage, ForiuarJ SlEAGAI.L, Guard Girls ' Basketball , Resume of the Season The first game of an extemied tour to West Tennessse with the Jackson outfit turned out to be a one-sided victory for the local team, the final score being 33-16. The game with West Tennessee proved to be a different turn of affairs, for they trimmed the Blue and White lassies by a 33-24 count. Our girls were worn out by the game of the night before and could not play up to th -ir usual standard. S. T. C. won a closely contested game from Biltmore College, champions of North Carolina, by a ig-i6 score. The visitors led all the way until tlie Blue and White team came back in the last few minutes of the game and scored the winning points. Our girls played real basketball in this canto and proved themselves one of the best sextettes in the South. The girls won another game from T. P. I. on the latter ' s lloor, 21-19. ' 1 he large floor slowed our team up considerable, but the locals adapted themselves in good style and came through with a hard-fought victory. The sextette from West Kentucky iinaded the local stronghuhl and were gi en a second trimming for their pains. When the final whistle blew the Blue and White were on the big end of a 29-20 score. Not being content with a pair of losses at the local ' s hands, they invited us to come to Bowling (jreen for a third combat. S. T. C. accepted and rambled up and took a close game by a 28-25 score. This was the final game of the season and it marked the last game for three of our best players — Captain Wilma Tnwry, Bess Palmer and Bernice Keeling. Th?se girls have per- formed nobly throughout their entire career at tiie institution, and e er ()ne here wishes them the best of luck in the future. 83 ' 5 g y ' S7 ' The midlander 1 , ' ISlineteen Thirty Girls ' Basketball Sqmacd Front Rfjic Lift to Riijlit Steacall Young Watkins Summers TOWRY Keeling M.

K. Stuart Rosa Whitley Clara Bratten Louise Sanders Iris Kinningham r - ' - Sy - The Midlander Nineteen Thirty M.CV1CW of Seasoe The State ' eacher College of Murf ree horo enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in basketball, footliall and haseliall in the history of the school. In football the Hlue ami ' hite colors were hoisted to the inast of victor ' on six occasions. On three occasions she was forced to drink the bitter dregs of defeat. In the other game the glories were shared equally by both teams. It is needless to say that this record was one of the most envied in Middle Tennessee. In basketball Coach Faulkinberry turned out a team that is claimed to be the greatest in the history of the school, winning seventeen and losing oidy seven. The Blue and White victories were over the most prominent teams in the state and South. Four of Nashville ' s major teams fell before the onslaught of the Pedagogues. Teams from Alabama, CJeorgia, Arkansas, Ken- tucky, Tennessee and Missouri were the victims of the Blue and White quintet. With three of last season ' s regulars returning coach resorted to the freshmen entering school to fill the vacancies. In this search he was successful and developed the fastest team in this section of the state. Our girls succeeded in winning ten of their games and losing only two. Among their vic- tories were the champions of North Carolina and East Tennesee. Again our lassies went through a season without losing a game on their home floor — a record that cannot be equaled in this state and probably not in the South. Our baseball team lost four regulars from last year ' s team, and Coach Faulkinberry found a task of converting a bunch of youngsters into able performers to fill the shoes of those missing. In this trying ordeal he came through and developed one of the best teams in the conference. The team was on the long end of the score in ten engagements and on the small end of seven. Two of these games were lost by only one score, both gaines ending one to nothing in favor of the opponents. Coach Faulkinberry rose to the very heights of his ability in producing the teams that he did in the past year, and we believe he is only beginning his campaign in putting old S. T. C. on the map. The football team will find six of the old familiar faces absent next fall when the call is sounded. Their shoes will be hard to fill, but we believe that coach will mold a team that will come through with flying colors. Three of the basketball team will leave this institution this year. They have given to the institution the very best that they have in athletics, and we wish them all the luck in the world. Only two of this year ' s regular diamond outfit will be missing next spring. A word or two may be said about the captains of the various teams: Captain Dixon was one of the best leaders that ever piloted a Blue and White grid machine, not only as a player, but as a leader as well. The teams that he coaches will indeed have an able coach and leader. Captain Maloiie of the boys ' basketball team is one of the best guards in the state and had a wonderful knowledge of the game, thus enabling him to be one of the most able leaders and versatile players on the team. Captain Towry, although handicapped by injuries, displayed wonderful ability and leadership. Captain Coleman was one of the best college third basemen in the conference, and whoever Chuck plays with or coaches in the future will have a valuable aid iii either department. Coach Faulkinberry is to be praised for his wonderful teams this year and if his teams in the future are as good as they have been in the past then old S T C. ' s reputation in the realm of athletics will gain rank with those of the greatest in the states. Other teams have long feared the teams from Teachers College and that fear is gradually being replaced with dread of meet- ing a superior team of hard fighting sports who are humble in victory and glorious in defeat. How many teams won two-thirds of their games last year at football? How many won four- fifths of their basketball games? How many won sixty-five per cent of their baseball games? Very few indeed. The students of S. T. C. should be proud of their teams and if those who do not play in any of these sports will support their team with all their mind and soul, a horizon in the distance is indeed bright and shining. This year is past and it has entered the realms of history. Let everyone strive to keep the college on the upward trend. It is our duty to the teams and to the college to give the very best we have, and in return the best will come back to us. 88 Jie finds his home in ruins, his farm devastated, his slaves free, his people without law -«- - -«• rady The iMidlander ' UxAaj . , Nineteen Thirty Manual Arts Club Officers Smith Howard President Elmer Malone I ' lce-Presidenl Oswald Edmonoson Secretary-Treasurer Clark Woodward Sponsor Members Haskell Newman William H.

And the gay abandon of tinkling sleigh bells Flings itself into her golden laughter, wells From the enveloping charm of heart ' s melody. In her voice the happiness of a song Rings in wildest freedom, springing from a throng Of whirling memories and fantastic dreams. And on her whimsical lips nature has laid The faintest hint of a lovei ' s serenade, So puie and wistful is their delicate curve. That is how it happens that the whole world l nows Her favorite llower is a full-blown rose — And ye.
