It is appropriate that these personalities be given a niche, a commemoration in the fading memory. With this in mind, without any attempt toward senti- mentality, and in consideration fundamentally of her sympathy and understanding, we, the Senior Class of 1936, do respectfully dedicate this anniversary edition to MISS ANNE ORDWAY THGCOLLGGG IN ME H€CIAM TO OUR FIRST PRESIDENT This page is affectionately dedicated to the niemory of Robert Lee Jones, wliose vision and leadership in pnb- lic education constitute a jiernianent contribution to the present and future citizenry of Tennessee. Deeply devoted to the rights of childhood, zealous in his ad- vocacy of educational advancement, and courageous in his battling for cciual educational opportunity, this jjeerless leader will ever be reinembered as One zclio iici ' cr lunicd his back but marched breast forzvard, Never doubted clouds 7eouId break.

The flowers had already wilted in the vase. The murky depths beckoned.

Approximately 4,000 fans turned out to witness the inauguration of the ' 35 season. During the first two periods the home team was badly outplayed and it was in the second period that Donnell, fleet-footed Lebanon back, raced for the only Cumberland score after Hamel had recovered a Blue Raider fumble on the Raiders ' 26-yard line. Huffaker ' s try for the e.xtra point failed. Murfreesboro ' s first chance came after the second half kickoff. . ' Kfter an exchange of punts had put Cum- berland deep in its own territory, Bass, substitute Raider center, re- covered a Bulldog fumble on Cum- berland ' s 14-yard stripe. After three plays had gained but two yards, Smitherman shot a pass down the center of the field to Murphy, substitute back, for the score. Bas- kins made the extra point by place- ment. Tlie second Blue Raider score followed closely on the heels of the first. McGehee, on the second play after the kickoff, recovered a Cum- berland fumlile on the Bulldogs ' 27- yard line. Smitherman then shot a pass to McGehee for the score. The try for e.xtra point failed. Classv Oflfense Feature of 20-0 Win Over Ala. Murfreesboro, Term., Oct. 4, 19. 5.

Doped to lose, the Blue Raiders of Murfreesboro galloped on the Jackson gridiron confident of a win. Not until the latter part of the first quarter did anything real exciting happen, a break came and when a Union back fumliled the ball on his own 21-yard line Murfreesboro recovered. Two plays at the line made five yards and on the third play Bublier Murphy, fleet-footed back for the visitors, took ' .he ball and circled his own left end for 16 yards and a touchdown. Miles Baskins made the extra point by placement. The Union team had the advan- tage in first downs and throughout the game they could go at will while playing in mid-field.

Pre wit t The largest crowd ever to witness a football game in Murfreesboro saw an inspired team of Blue Raid- ers down a favored team of Hill- toppers from Western Kentucky, 7 to 0. The game was a happy sur- prise to the majority of the 6,000 or more spectators who saw tlie local team down the Kentucky eleven for the first time in the history of the meetings of the two teams. The entire first half was played in mid-field with neither team mak- ing any serious threats. On the first play after the kickofif the lo- cals tried a pass, but it was short and was intercepted by Western. - fter making a first down the Raid- ers tightened up and held the vis- itors for downs. Western kicked off to Murfrees- boro to open the last half. Joe Troop, consistent end for the win- ners, received the ball on his own 17-yard line and carried it to West- ern ' s 35 before being brought down. Smitlierman then passed 13 yards to McGehee. On the next play Smitherman made three yards around left end to place the ball on Western ' s 19-yard stripe. Eub- l:er Murphy, on the next play, cir- cled his own left end for 15 yards and a first down on the visitors ' four-yard line. Murphy then lost a yard at center, but on the next play Sniithernian faded back and shot a sliort pass to Murphy, who stepped across the line for the si-x-pointer. Miles Baskins converted the extra I)oint by placement.

A fighting team of Blue Raiders from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, lost no time in piling up nineteen points, which was sufficient to down the strong Murray eleven, who were held to a single touchdown. This was the si.xth straight victory for the Tennessee team and also kept their clean slate unblemished. Soon after the game had gotten under way the ball went over to Murfreesboro in mid-field, and it only took two beautiful passes from Smitherman to Miles Baskins to produce the first score. The first pass was good for 22 yards, while the last was good for 25 and a score. Baskins ' placement for extra point went wide. In the third quarter the Raiders took the ball on Murray ' s 28-yard line. A pass, Smitherman to Mur- phy, was good for 11 yards, placing the ball on Murray ' s one-yard stripe. Murphy, on the next play, slid off tackle for the score. Bas- kins converted the extra point by placement. During the fourth quarter both teams scored. Alurray oljtained possession of the liall on Murfrees- boro ' s 32-yard line. Greenwell then shot a pass to Elder, substitute Thoroughbred back, that was good for 30 yards. It was first down and two to go. On the first play Fowl er, ano ' ber sub back, bucked the liall over for the six points. The try for the extra point failed. In this same quarter Murphy inter- cepted a Murray pass on his own 25 and ran 75 yards for the last score of the game. The attempt for extra point failed. ■ ' : € f ' : ' ' - i ' ---■- McGEHEE TROOP SEAY CARTER Page Sevenly-Two Raiders Cop S. I. A. A. Crown IMiirphy Runs Wild as Flovtl Crew Wins, 20-7 T. P. I.

Despite the fact that the team was handicapped by the loss of players through illness and other sources, the Murfreesboro State College cagesters pulled down the curtain on the 1935-36 season with a fairly successful season. When Coach Johnny Red Floyd called his boys together for the first drill tlierc were four veterans pres- ent. Time for the first game rolled around and this same quartet was found stationed in four of the five playing positions. About the time that Captain Bennett, Mansfield, Simmons, and Thomas, who were teamed with Mammy Bass to round out the starting five, started click- ing together, Evans Simmons left the team to take a teaching position in Fliirida. The loss of Simmons was a heavy jolt. Burrhead, as he was called, played two years of var- sity ball and this was his third and was expected to be his best. Charles Bubber Murphy, crack sophomore performer, was called on by Coach Floyd to fill Simmon ' s place. Murphy filled the gap in fine style and proved to be the outstand- ing player on the team. Ill fate had stayed away from the camp as long as possible and then the ne.xt thing we knew Mammy Bass was lost to the team due to an appendix operation. Bass ' height had been a big asset to the team especially in getting the ball off the opponen ' . ' s liacklioard. Wallace Campbell, a sophomore guard of no mean ability, was in- serted in the starting line-up. Humpy proved more valuable to his team as the season passed a nd at the close of the campaign he was the most improved player on the squad. As a whole the squad was handi- capped by the lack of height. The team was especially fast and shifty, but at no time did the speed and shiftiness offset the lack of altitude. Taking everything in consideration, the material available, and the abil- ity of the material on hand. Coach Floyd did a nice piece of coaching in turning out a team that finished up the season with a five hundred percentage in conference competi- tion. .1 mmui THOMAS BEXXETT M.WSFIELD Page Seventy-Six Murphy Leads in Individual Scoring BRIEFS Captain Frci ' land Bennett was probably the outstanding player of tlie team tbrongbout the season. Several others bad bright spurts, but the consistent play of Bennett offset the play of his mates. To Bubljer Murpliy .goes the liun- or of being liigh point man of the season. He registered 100 points, being followed closely by Captain Benne ' t, who tallied 99, and Leon- ard Manslield, who hit the hoop for 87 points. To Leonard Mansfield goes the honor of being the best performer to hit the basket at any angle with any kind of shot. A plum to the Campbell Ijrothers for their fighting spirit. Another plum to Hamp Thc.imas for doing the best piece of guard- ing seen on the local floor in quite a while. INDIVIDUAL SCORING Points Murphy 106 Bennett 99 Mansfield 87 Thomas 18 W. Campbell 48 C. Campbell 21 Simmons 15 Bass 9 Smitherman 3 Green 2 Summar 1 Total 409 We would like to devote this space to two of our most dejiend- able cage performers, who were compelled to des ert the team, the first in order to take a teaching po- sition and the other because of ill- ness. Evans Burrhead Simmons, for two years regular forward on the local five, was called to Florida to take a teaching position. Simmons was going good at the time of his departure and his best season was e.xpected. Burrhead ' s loss was keen- ly felt and conserjucntly hurt the standing of the team. Robert Mammy Bass, giant cer.- tcr. who was playing his first year on the hardwood for the local in- stitution, was forced to have an appendi.x operation and therefore was lost to the team the latter part of the season. These two boys were being count- ed upon heavily and their loss to the team helped keep the win column low. So all we can say now is, Better luck next time, boys. r .1 C. CAMPBELL JIURPHY V.
