Dur world today has Ijeeii made by so-called wise men who lielieve that thev ha -e ] er- fected an ideal place for every person and every race. These men believe in solvin the problems at hand and letting the future care for itself; they believe that there are inferior races ; they believe in tolerance but never in understanding. They believe in bolts and l)ars to protect the set world they have tried to establish. Praise in a democracy should go to those whom these wise men call fools, to those who walk with eyes upon the stars, who look above the ])etty problems at hand to consider the greater thing which embraces all problems, to those who believe that all men are children of God and have the right to live as such with understanding from all peoples. In our democracy we should strive through education to awaken the faith of our youth which lies but half asleep in the dawn of their own knowledge. Though they may be called fools because they have the courage to question self-made authority in the face of the danger that they might lose economic and political security: called fools l)ecause thev love peace so much they would fight for it, they must stand together and know that Free men set them- selves free. Oppression lies not in the hand of the oppressor, Init in the hearts of the people. If we are to be free, we must realize that our freedom is held not in the hands of our leaders, but in the heart of every man. When the democracies rise above the dictators, we must act according to our knowledge that when our freedom finally loses its fetters then itself must become a fetter to an even greater freedom.

Those choosing teacher training reaHze the importance of actual instruc- tion at the Training School. It is here where pro- spective teachers come in contact with the ever present problems of young people and where they gain an introduction to the progressive methods of teaching by actual experience. The Training School students obtain a taste of democratic living in both their classrooms and in participation in student government. The prac- tice teachers obtain an understanding of the methods of democratic instruction and student guidance. Certainly the Training School is a very essential part of the Tennessee State College and an im- ]3ortant training center for the teachers of to- morrow.

To others, those who are less indifferent, it presents a challenge. It is an opportunity for us to gain our first experiences in working together for the betterment of the institution in which we find ourselves. It is definitely a step forward, provided the student body, without taking it for granted, attempts to make it stronger. There are several obstacles to student government — namely, misunder- standing on the part of some as to its objectives, lack of cooperation, failure to participate in student activities and constant knocking. Student government demands an intelligent student body, willing to face problems and arrive at the best possible solution. Only through actual participation may we learn self-di.scipline, social responsibility, and tlie privileges of a democracy. In spite of the fact that student government is handicapped because there is a seemingly overwhelming problem facing the youth of today, w-e iinist not permit our interest in a very worth-while setup to wane. This presents a challenge to all student bodies who will follow us — a challenge to preserve the one aspect of democracy we have on the campus.

Line Coach O. L. Freeman, Assistant Coach Nance Jordan (in service, U. S. N.), Head Coach E. W. Midgett. In spite of the loss of twenty-six men to tlie armed forces, the Bkie Raiders enjoyed their most successful season since 1937. Their record of four wins and one tie against two losses does not fully summarize the spirit, work, and ability that character- ized Coaches Midgett and Freeman ' s Blue Raiders. With both the coaching staff and the vastl_ -reduced squad knowing that the only hope ft)r a good season was in plenty of work and cooperation, the team began to take shape. The Raiders opened the season against Memphis State at Memphis. Everyone was in readiness for this game, and the small band of warriors from T. S. C. jjrevailed, 21-13, in an exciting game.

The work of Bola and Bill Burkett. Charlie Phil- lips, and the line, en masse, was w(.)nderful. The following week Camp Forrest fell at the mercy of the red. white, and blue team with the score of 26-7. Everyone saw service in this game, and the play of the reserves was very heartening. Maryville College came to Murfreesboro with a fine team, but bowed in the mud to the Raiders with a score of 19-13. Phillips. Suddarth. Brooks, Reasonover. the P.urketts. and Xesbitt were the outstanding plavers. Then came the trip to Tamjia which had been looked forward t(.) with mucli enth usiasm. After a long journey to Tampa, the Raiders fell before the Tampa eleven by the score of 0-13. The heat and Tampa ' s reserve players were the main differences be- tween the fighting forces. The respect gained by the Tennesseans in Tampa more than balanced the loss, for the Raiders were greatlv admired for their praiseworthv action. Managers .• n-dy Brooks. Tackle Km. Brdwx.

The Raiders were defeated 7-25, although the score cannot hy any means indi- cate the difference in the teams. It can easilv he said that every Raider gave his utmost and that T. P. I., although victorious, knew that they had played the game of their lives. ( )f this year ' s foothall season it should he said that the work of Coaches Midgett and Freeman, along with the help of Rev. Keller- man and the fighting spirit and ahility of the Blue Raiders, gave the school its most success- ful season in ahout six vears. Although most of the hoys are in the service now, this season should he rememhered as their supreme effort to hring the fame and glory that only such a foothall team can bring. WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION . The purpose of the Women ' s Athletic Association has always been to develop good sportsman- ship, cooperation, and active interest in the sports. This year along with the above purpose, the W. A. A. has been the leader ii: the new intramural system set up this fall by the two directors of physical education. Miss Tommie Reynolds and Mr. B. B. Gracy, Jr., and the intramural class. The W. A. A. is the only organization on the campus that allows girls to receive awards in athletics. By participation in any of the sports, and a certain number of points, entitles the student to the special awards, including monograms, sweaters, and medals. Governing the setup is the council of the W. A. A. officers, and the intramural general man- ager and team managers, who plan the program, initiate new members, and make the awards. The major sports for the fall and winter quarters were volleyball, basketball, and tumbling. Under the able leadership of the six intramural managers the double round-robin volleyball tourna- ment was a tie between the Orioles, managed by Evelyn Osborne, and the Pelicans, managed by Pat Hope, until the Orioles took the play-off game and capped the volleyball crown for the 1942 season. Nine All-Stars were chosen from the six teams.

The season ended with another play-off of a tie by the Herons and Cardinals. The Herons, led by Manager Virginia Cummins, bested the Redbirds, managed by Jessie DePriest, ? i-i7 . in a tilt that was nip and tuck from the start. Tumbling was sponsored by Willie Paschail and climaxed by a chapel program March 5. Because of the increased interest in tumbling this year, this sport was promoted from a minor to 1.

Outstanding among spring activities are Softball, field and track, horseshoes, and tennis. When this book went to press. April 10. softball was underway with the Pelicans and Orioles leading in wins. The high point of the entire program was the spring hike of the week end beginning April 30. A large representation of the W ' . A. A. enjoyed a couple of days of ruffing it at Standing Stone Park. Hike sponsor was Peggye Thompson. ALL SCHOOL INTRAMURALS • SMen ' s Intramtirals uiuk-r the guidance of Director P . ] . Gracy, Jr., took on an added load this year, because of the single intercollegiate sport, football. The intranuu-al ])rograni fitted in with non-competitive sports for the boys ' participation. Touch football began the season and ended with the Cardinals, managed by Royce ' Doc Richards, nosi ng out Sid Huggins ' Pelicans for the title. The all-stars were named by Mr. Gracy and Greer Wiggins, student intramural manager for the boys. The runner-up Pelicans placed three men on the team and the Champs placed two. Two Ravens and one Parakeet made up the eight men who were given five points to their credit in the scoring of the intramural program. The newly organized boys ' intramural program is being run on the point system where every sport is to carry the same weight in the accumulation of one individual score. The winter quarter sport, l)asket1)all, came to a close March with the Herons, managed by Laddie Royster, being crowned winners by virtue of their win (jver the Parakeets, led by Ashton Wood, 54-47. The Herons made a clean sweep of the tourney, winning five games while losing none. All-stars were chosen from the six teams. The Herons placed three men on the Upper Eight List. Two Orioles, one Raven, one Pelican, and one Parakeet made up the all-stars. Because of the few lioys in school during the spring quarter and the increased program of soldier physical training, no formal sports were planned. The boys who were interested in tennis, field and track, and Softball ran ofT a tournament of their own. 1 iV 1 l r l l l l l Partial page missing PC : - l l lir - V T TV TV l l ■! 9 l 1 1 . m ■ ■ ..
