Carolina VOLUME XXVII , 1 DEDICATION OLIVER MAX GARDNER ;HIS volume of THE AGROMECK is dedicated to Oliver Max Gardner, of the Class of 1903, who was inaugurated Governor of North Carolina January 11, 1929. As First Lieutenant and Adjutant of the R.O.T.C. unit, manager of the baseball team, captain of the football team, vice-president of the Pullen Liter- ary Society, commencement orator, winner of the orator ' s medal and of the debater ' s medal, assistant editor of THE AGROMECK, president of the senior class, graduate of State College with the degree Bachelor of Science in Industrial Chemistry; he touched successfully every phase of student activity. Governor Gardner ' s public career is but an enlarge- ment of his college career, more maturely planned and executed. It is appropriate, therefore, for this edition of THE AGROMECK to be dedicated to a prominent alumnus and distinguished public official, who at one time was its assistant editor. o V FOREWORD % ORE than three centu- ries, after Sir Walter Raleigh, English nobleman, established in what is now the United States its first permanent settlement, North Carolina State College, in the city that bears his name, would do honor to his memory by blending in art and story its ideals and records with those of that distin- guished statesman and benefactor.

The School of Agriculture purpose of the School of Agri- culture is to serve North Carolina ' s greatest basic industry agriculture. To that end the school is organized along three general lines of activity: First To secure through scientific re- search accurate and reliable information re- lating to soils, plants and animals and to collect from every available reliable source statistical, technical and scientific data re- lating to the var ious phases of agriculture that might be of advantage to our state. Second To provide resident instruc- tion for young men who desire to enter the field of general agriculture or who wish to become professionals in agricultural edu- cation or specialists in the various fields of science relating to agriculture. Third To give instruction and practical demonstrations in agriculture and home economics to persons not attending the college by field demonstra- tions, publications, and otherwise. Beginning a generation ago on a small scale, the School of Agriculture has grown until today it embraces the following important divisions: (a) Agron- omy, including Field Crops, Soils, Plant Breeding, and Agricultural Engineer- ing; ( ) Animal Industry, including Animal Production, Animal Nutrition, Dairy Production, and Dairy Manufacturing; (c) Botany, including Bacteri- ology, Plant Physiology, and Plant Diseases: (d) Horticulture, including Pomology, Forestry, Floriculture, Landscape Gardening, and Truck Farming; ( e) Poultry Science, including Poultry Diseases, Poultry Breeding, Poultry Feeding, and Poultry Management; (f) Zoology, including Genetics, Ento- mology, and Animal Physiology; (g) Agricultural Administration and Farm Management. I. O. SCHAUB Dean Page Twenty-six AGROM ECK The School of Engineering DR. HE School of Engineering embraces the de- Pertinents of Architectural, Ceramic, Chem- ical. Civil. Electrical, Highway, Mechanical. Mining, and Structural Engineering and also the Engineering Experiment Station. It has for its purpose the preparation of men for efficient service in the solution of the various engineering problems which have become more and more complex as our civilization has advanced and more important locally by reason of the rapid change of the con- ditions in our State from agricultural and rural to industrial and urban. This college was established primarily for the purpose of teaching Agriculture and Engineering. It has continuously increased its emphasis on engineering education for the young men of the State and has been largely instrumental in bringing about the recognit ion of Engineering as a learned profession. While the instruction in the School of Engineer- ing is preeminently technical, it is not narrow. We recognize the fact that the activities of the engineer cover a broad field and that in order to succeed in this profession, one must be not merely a technically educated man, technical man. The School of Engineering, therefore, has incorporated into its curricula numerous subjects of general educational value from other schools of the college. Courses are required in English. Economics, Modern Languages, etc. There is, of course, thorough training in Mathematics, both pure and applied. The objective of the School is to prepare young men for success in their chosen profession as well as for leadership in all matters of public interest. The School of Engineering is largely and more completely equipped and teaches more students than the combined engineering departments of all other institutions of the State. Our students live and work in an engineering atmosphere and their every daily association is helpful, in that it keeps the prospective engineer in constant touch with those things that pertain to his work. In a word, State College is the center from which go out most of the men trained to supply the engineering industries of the State. The location of the college is especially favorable for the study of engineering. Besides being the capital and having the several State Departments, including the State Highway Com- mission, the State Board of Health, and other important State institutions, Raleigh is a rapidly growing city marked by unusual developments in residential, commercial and municipal con- struction which afford excellent opportunities for observation and study. Raleigh is also the center from which electrical power is distributed to a large section of the State. A large trans- former sub-station adjoins the campus from which high tension lines carry electrical power in every direction. Many large hydro-electric and steam -electric plants are within easy reach of the college, and to these plants our students make frequent visits for purposes of instruction. W. C. RlDDICK Dean but also an educated Page Twenty-seven AGROM ECK. The School of Science and Business principal task of the School of Science and Business at State Col- lege is to train men for the profes- sional careers in the industrial and com- mercial world. A generation or so ago there were only a few professions which the colleges and universities were preparing their graduates to enter. The law, medi- cine, and the ministry exhausted the list. But now the number of distinct profes- sions, each with a background of training and a technique of its own, runs up into hundreds. Business administration has shown it- self to be susceptible of scientific study and of organization into distinct courses, each with an objective of its own but all cor- related into one unified curriculum em- b odying the whole professional aim. This aim is not to train men only to succeed in business, but also to succeed in the business of living to become something of a force to improve business and make it serve its highest social ends. In addition to training men for the various fields of business such as positions in industry, banking, retailing and wholesaling, marketing, account- ing, journalism, chemistry, etc., the school also lays the foundation for graduate work leading to positions with the government, or of teaching or research in the colleges and universities. Through its Placement Bureau, the school not only endeavors to place its graduates in the best available positions, but it follows them in their- after- college days and aids in their advancement. B. F. BROWN Dean Page Twenty-eight AGROM ECK The Textile School DR. THOMAS NELSON Dean i OR several years the South has led America r-y in textile development and it now supplies more than one-half of the country ' s annual production of cotton goods. This section is fast establishing dyeing and finishing plants and the present rate of expansion indicates that it will be the center of the knitting industry. The South is also developing a great rayon industry and has some of the world ' s largest plants. The Textile School of North Carolina State College has contributed materially to this industrial development. Its object is first, to train intelli- gent leaders for the future expansion of the South- ern Textile Industry by educating men for profes- sional service in Textile Manufacturing and Textile Dyeing; second, to cooperate with the textile mills and of the South in developing, through scientific research and investigation, newer and better pro- cesses of textile manufacturing. During recent years, the South has made great progress in diversifying its textile industry. This progress has created a demand for intelligent young men who have a sound textile education. To supply this demand the Textile School of State College has been enlarged and is amply equipped to give thorough instruction in the science and practice of all processes involved in manufacturing cotton and rayon into fabrics of utility and beauty. The worth of a school may be measured by the accomplishment of those who have come under its influence. Many graduates of the Textile School have, through perseverance and personal efficiency, become mill owners, presidents, managers, superintendents, assistant super- intendents, overseers of carding, spinning, and weaving, textile chemists, designers, salesmen, machinery draftsmen, efficiency engineers. Textile alumni also hold many positions of re- sponsibility in Commission Houses and with Fabric Converters. FACILITIES FOR RESEARCH While textile manufacturing is an industry of long standing, having much knowledge gained from experience and a rich accumulation of scientific facts, there are yet many problems facing the industry which await solution. The aim of the Department of Textile Research is to apply the princip les of scientific investigation and measurement to the solution of these problems. The research laboratory is equipped with the latest types of testing apparatus, so that the properties of textiles may be measured and compared. This apparatus includes microscopes and a micro-photographic outfit for more closely studying the cause and effect in manufacturing and finishing textiles. Tompkins Hall, the home of the Textile School, was enlarged in 1926 and the remodeled structure furnishes space for a separate unit of machinery which is devoted to experimental work. Page Twenty-nine AGROM ECK. The Graduate School Graduate School at North Caro- lina State College was organized and is maintained to meet the needs of men who perform functions and tasks which demand something beyond tech- nical trade training. Agriculture, en- gineering, manufacturing and business are no longer mere occupations. They are, jmt in some of their aspects, professions and sciences. In their largest aspects they are Hk world affairs. They, therefore, need the BL jk I most highly trained scientists and states- BL men which colleges can produce in order HL to cope with the technical and world prob- lems which relate themselves to the tech- nical professions. The Graduate School at North Caro- lina State College offers graduate studies and opportunities for research in all the technical professions for which its undergraduate curricula train men, in the sciences which underlie these technical professions, and in the economic and social aspects of the great processes which men trained in these technical professions seek to develop and guide. During the fall term of 1928- ' 29, seventy persons have been registered in the Graduate School. Thirty-five of these men are candidates for graduate degrees in June, 1929. DR. CARL C. TAYLOR Dean Page Thirty AGROM ECK. The School of Education School of Education was estab- lished by the Board of Trustees in order to give students desiring to attend State College an opportunity to prepare themselves to meet the growing need for specially trained teachers in North Carolina. The emphasis in this School is upon training teachers for those particular fields in which the college is particularly equipped to give the technical and subject matter instruction. This has been ac- complished by adding the required profes- sional courses. As the regular college in- struction is not designed to meet the needs of teachers in the elementary and gram- mar grades, the professional courses in the School of Education are planned chiefly to meet the needs of teachers in the sec- ondary schools, with the exception of Industrial Arts. Special provision is made for preparing teachers of Industrial Arts. Through cooperative arrangement with other schools, students may secure in the School of Education the professional courses required by the State De- partment of Education for an ' A grade certificate to teach any of the subjects offered at the college. The School of Education, cooperating with the Graduate School, has provided a number of graduate courses for the benefit of advanced students who desire to secure their graduate degrees at State College. T. E. BROWNE Director of Instruction Page Thirty-one AG RON 1 ECK. The Dean of Students E. L. CLOYD Dean CONSIDERABLE part of every college year-book is usually filled with records of the achievements of intercollegiate teams, and contains pictures taken at the crucial moment when some outstanding athlete begins the play which resulted in the winning of the champion- ship game for the home team. This is as it should be. for these intercollegiate contests have much to contribute to the pleasure of college life. But what gains have been made in the standard of iife on the campus? Have our individual lives become richer because of this year in college? Will we leave to the men who follow us at State College an inheritance richer than that which was ours? To me the outstanding achievement of this col- lege year has been the challenging of Student Gov- ernment and our Honor System. When this matter was first brought to our attention by articles appearing in local papers as a result of a meeting of the Golden Chain, our Senior Honor Society, I am convinced there were many who said: What! the Senior Honor Society at State College wants to abandon the ' Honor System ' and overthrow Student Government! That was the impression conveyed by the press. But never was anything farther from the truth. What this Honor Society wanted to do, and what it succeeded in doing, was to challenge the effectiveness of a system of government set going some seven years ago. and compl acently accepted by a generation of students who were not in college when it was founded, and who had somehow failed to grasp the real meaning of the terms Government and Honor. Abelard said, By doubting we come to question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth. James Harvey Robinson in his book. The Mind in the Making, says: Almost all the things that we prize today represent revolts against traditions, and were in their beginnings what seemed to be shocking divergencies from current beliefs and practices. So I believe that this apparently shocking divergence from current belief in our Student Government by our Senior Honor Society was the beginning of the finest piece of constructive thinking on the part of both faculty and students that has been done in many years; and the thoroughgoing consideration of this whole question by State College students leads me to agree with President Hopkins of Dartmouth, when in speaking of the college youth of today he said: In straight-forwardness, in unhypocritical honesty, in cleanness of thought and integrity of action, in aspiration and idealism, their like has not been seen before. Page Thirty-two CLASSES N O AGROM ECK. Senior Class Poem Since here we ' ve paused in life ' s journey, To study and to contemplate, We ' ve come to love and cherish, Our Dear North Carolina State. Even though we ' ve toiled and suffered much, Along pathways not strewn with roses, It ' s hard to say Good-bye Old State, Now that our Senior year closes. New visions have been given us, Which show us there ' s many things to do, But wherever life ' s work leads us. State, we ' ll still be loyal to you. In our college life we ' ve struggled And still we have had our share of fun, Just now the greatest task awaits us, Our race against the world has begun. Onward may our motto e ' er be! All during future days of life. Let us strive not to be discouraged, Should we meet with worry and strife. Remember, should grim trouble appear, The words of one who wisely said, Though skies may be at times so dark Success is his who forges ahead. Seniors, let ' s go out into the world, Willingly our best effort give. May others say when we are gone: Give us more men who will so live. R. H. HARRILL.

LITTLE EVA Here ' s Little Eva, a happy-go-lucky fellow with a friendly smile who is always ready for a big time; and a date with a cer- tain little lady on Hillsboro street. Vance is a year late in graduating, for a wild desire to travel his would-be sophomore year caused him to spend that year in Cali- fornia and Texas. He sees all and says little. He is a hard worker and it is a rare thing that he is ever seen idle. He is very studious at times??? but when he decides to go up Hillsboro street a few blocks, academic pur- suits are brushed aside by a pair of alluring brown eyes. We are positive that wedding bells will soon ring out for them and our best wishes are theirs. AND BOY HOWDY! CHARLES URBIN ROGERS, A A T WILLIAMSTON, NORTH CAROLINA Marketing German Club. This pathological specimen came from down in the jungle which covers most of Martin county. One day. while he was try- ing to find the way out, he insulted a bear- trap, which in turn removed the toes from one of his feet. Whatever regret he may have had because of their absence was re- moved when he found he didn ' t have to drill. State College has worked hard to make something out of him. The best of efforts sometimes fail. But Urbin has a manner as smooth as a politician ' s tongue. When such a torrid personality as his goes out into such a frigid world as this we have about us. something is bound to happen. There was nothing he enjoyed so much as a good healthy bull session after twelve o ' clock at night, when he had retired or gone to bed. as the case might be. or was just finishing an accounting problem. When he goes off. State College will be like a newly-swept chimney: empty, but much cleaner and better fitted for service. We ex- pect to hear of his being in jail or in the legislature, if not in something worse. Good-bye, Urbin.

This excellently accomplished, he resumed his sophomore work with the class of ' 29. Modest and unassuming, he has entered into his varied activities, especially Student Government, with such whole-heartedness, earnestness, conscientiousness, sincerity, and friendliness that he has won the deserved ad- miration of the entire student body. He has proved himself a true gentleman and a loyal friend, always striving to place N. C. State on a higher plane. He is a man through and through. His record speaks so loud that further words are ambiguous. We are proud to claim Purk as a mem- ber of the class of ' 29 and we know that he will uphold the reputation that he has gained while here in school.

Abie has always had the interests of the college and student body deeply at heart; he has worked hard and accomplished many things here. He has helped to make this institution a bigger and better place, and our lives are richer for hav- ing associated with him these years. That unique smile and his twinkling eyes have won many friends for him. He is jolly as can be, but he has been a woman-hater (ask him about that trip to Florida). But judging by the recent change that has come over him, he appears to be recovering rapidly. He has always stood for the right; he has been an excellent student, and is a man of sterling character whose influence is felt at State. Abie, we admire you, and shall always remember you as a real friend. AGROM ECK. GILMAN REID ALEXANDER MONTREAT, NORTH CAROLINA Civil Engineering A. S. C. E.; Leazar Literary Society; Red Masquers. ALEX Alex is an addition to State from Georgia Tech, and it was a fine wind that blew such a fellow to our ranks. He only had one year at Tech and he has more than made up for this by his enthusiastic support of State in all ways. His cheering at games is better than that of any freshman. He has had a hard time with his work in engineer- ing, due to changing schools, but in spite of this he has made good. He is one who gives himself to duty with an unrelenting stand, and all who know this cheerful, friendly chap likes him. Life owes his industrious efforts a handsome reward, and we ' ll bet that Alex is not found wanting in the final round. Oratory is his greatest gift, and the speech that made him immortal is The Hall of Flames at Washington. D. C. It is a wow! But when all is said and done, Alex is true-blue. Farewell. Alex, in years to come we shall all remember you as a friend worth having. WILLIAM HOWARD JURNEY HARMONY, NORTH CAROLINA Civil Engineering A. S. C. E.; R. O. T. C. Rifle Team, 2; Los Hidalgos. W. H. When the bubble popped in Florida, State College got W. H. at the expense of the University of Florida. So well did W. H. adapt himself that he started in as a sopho- more and finished in two years, one stroke under par. Not only has he finished his course in civil engineering in three years, but he has made high honors. Our hat is off to a man who can do that. W. H. is the only one of his kind in captivity. Small in statue, nimble in wit, he is never still a minute. No obstacle is too great, no task too hard for him to tackle. Maybe this is the secret of his success at State College. Those who know him do not hesitate to predict a future for him as bright as his past. If the world needs scholars, if the world needs engineers, we nominate Jurney. The world will get more than that it will get a man in all that the word implies. So long, old pal, we wish you all the good things the world has to offer. LAWRENCE ALLGOOD ROXBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Textile Manufacturing Baseball, Captain, 4; Tompkins Textile Society. LARRY JUDGE Four years ago Chick Doak was over near Roxboro on a hunting trip. He saw a lanky young lad chunking rocks at squirrels and seeing possibilities of a great baseball pitcher, he brought Larry All- good to Stale College. Since then Larry has been a dependable pitcher on the Tech nine and the season of 1929 will see him in the role of a capable and popular leader. Larry makes a lot of mysterious week- end trips to Halifax and Windy swears that he is going to flunk him for cutting his Monday morning classes. It is said that every man has his good influence and over beyond the rolling hills in Halifax is the inspirational influence that guides Larry. When the school year of 1929 has gone down in history State College will have lost one of its most likeable chaps, but the tex- tile industry will have gained a worthy mem- ber. Go to it. Larry, old topper. We are betting on you to make good to make your successful way through the unfathom- able and undefinable future that is to be un- folded before you.

CHINK OSSIE The red hills of eastern Gaston county contributed one of the best known and best liked students in the class of 1929, when Chink entered State College four years ago. Bringing a brilliant high school ath- letic record with him, Outen carried on in fine style with varsity football and baseball teams, winning nation-wide attention and the compliment of best athlete in his class. Chink possesses a useful knowledge of the textile business. His athletic powers are backed with ability to earn his living in the industrial world when he retires from pro- fessional baseball, a field he plans to enter in the immediate future. If Chink had one enemy on the campus during his educational career, he had thous- ands of friends. Always pleasant to talk with and ever-ready to help a friend, Outen won friends everywhere. ALBERT ALLWOOD, ATP YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND Textile Tpmpkins Textile Society; AGROMECK Staff, Junior Editor; Secretary Senior Class. AL SCOTTY Al or Scotty is our bonnie lad rep- resentative from Scotland. Al is Scotch and is ptoud of it. He has many of the vir- tues of his tribe, but has dropped the most widely advertised one. Everyone has to ad- mit that Al is a good sport with his money as with everything else. But the most important thing about All- wood and his stay at State College is his record with T-Foot and the textile school. Al can boast of just about the highest average in the entire department. We think that he would be a mighty good man to have around the school permanently; but Al says no. Maybe it ' s a girl, or maybe it ' s the lure of making a million. Anyway, the school is losing a mighty good man in the graduation of Al. Of course, we are all glad to see a man like this finish, because we know that he will be a credit to the school. ROBERT AMOS WILSON TRYON, NORTH CAROLINA High School Teaching BUD Clear-cut, thoughtful, of retiring nature, Bud is one of those rare individuals who believe in action rather than words. He is not given to seeking the spotlight; yet in after life, his undeniably sterling character, his unquestioned ability, and his winning personality will undoubtedly put him there. We can do no more than wish for him that his merit will earn its just reward that will be enough.

T. C.- Here, friends, is a man of no mean abil- ity. If you don ' t believe it, just look at some of his accomplishments. He can do more things at the same time and make a success of all of them than anyone on the campus. For instance, he is able to carry on the most ardent courtship, by mail, make long trips to national judging contests, and yet keep his grades well above the average. His untiring work on the poultry and live- stock judging teams has won for him a place of honor and the respect of his professors and fellow students. Andy. as he is called, can become quite eloquent at times, especially when he starts talking about the sweetest girl in all the world. We wish for you a happy and successful career and we feel sure that a man of your capacity for accomplishment will make his mark.

I will try and try hard and maybe my chance will come. This was a wonderful saying of Abe Lincoln, but it is no greater to the world than K. P. is to State Col- lege. This now introduces us to one of the better men of State College one who has strived and served and a lad with a go yonder disposition. When we think of Hay foot we shall not only think of him as a man of high scholarship and friendship but we must re- member him as The Walking Cage Bear. Many afternoons Hayfoot has been known to walk for miles and miles just walk- ing and walking. But since his freshman cap we can find the character of K. P. as a true gentleman, with a sunny smile. These are only a few compliments of this honorable chap, but to the better proof will be acknowledged in our sadness of his departure when he leaves us. AGROM ECK. ARLIE D.

The college and we that have associated with Skinny during his college career can well feel proud of the record that he has made during the past four years. This rec- ord is outstanding in that it includes an irreproachable character, high ideals, and al- most constant worker. W.

FATS There came to us from way across Georgia a proud son who wished to lend his aid to the electrical world. At the end of his second year here he felt the call of the business world to such an extent that he changed his course to business. He has worked hard and has adapted himself to such an extent that accounting is just a pastime for him. During his first year he was the proud owner of a motorcycle, which never refused to take him wherever he wanted to go. Fats. as he is called, likes to smoke his pipe and sit in bull sessions. He has had his ups and downs but nothing seems to dishearten him not even when some upperclassmen saw fit to remove his golden locks, his freshman year. Fats has made the mark of leadership that he had as his aim and there is no reason why he should not succeed in the business world.

Scales, so named to help him hold his balance, was raised in a wide place in the road in Caro- lina. Currituck, N. C., stands in a fair way to become famous whenever Scales struts his stuff in an industrial way. Scales has one great weakness that often caused him nights of worry and restlessness, that is. the fairer sex. Though he has pulled through to a certain degree he still gives the little village of Moyock, N. C.. a thought now and then. It seems too bad when dudes like him leave school and sever friendly ties, but it must always be a source of satisfaction to remember the pleasant times during our school days and to note the success of a fel- low student. Keep your optics on Scales when he makes his line plunge. He will gain ground. 1 JOHN PERRY, JR., A x B HENDERSONVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA Electrical Engineering R. O. T. C., Sergeant, 3, Lieutenant, 4.

Going about this with the same determination with which he tackles all prob- lems, he has not wasted any of his four years spent here. His place is with the best in his class, and he is the holder of many desirable honors. While Latham has been making a place for himself in his class, he has also made for himself a host of friends. He has a fine sense of humor and is always able to bass back. Although he has made a mark in the way of high grades, he is no book- worm.

SHAKESPEARE The Original Washington has sent many of her sons to State College. One of the most outstanding of them is Howard. He came here with the determination to learn civil engineering and a look at his record for the past four years will show how well he has succeeded. His standing is with the top of the class. Not only is he a brilliant student but he is a real fellow and liked by all who know him. His ready wit and sense of humor makes him friends wherever he goes. Early in his freshman year he contracted the nickname of Shakespeare because of his handsome hair. We may go further and say that it not only attracted the attention of his classmates but also that of a certain young lady. And whenever anyone men- tions Bayview on the Palmico. you can see a dreamy far-away look come into his eyes. Howard, old fellow, as you go out in life we wish you success and happiness in every- thing you undertake. May you always re- member the pleasant hours spent at State College and the many friends you will leave. _ : AGROMIECK.

Shorty has other in- terests in Raleigh besides State College, and we think she lives on West Morgan street.

When Howard boarded the hack for Raleigh the first time he had high ambitions of becoming a great business man. Four years of bull sessions, hard work and night life seem to have dimmed his hopes very little. We have high hopes of being able to borrow some money from him some day if he doesn ' t fall for the charms of a little girl. This seems probable because you can ' t tell what will happen to a fellow who is as attractive as he is. Howard has a mania for going uptown, especially on windy days, and for asking questions. Most any afternoon Fayetteville street is graced with his presence. And it has long been a close choice as to whether he can ask as many questions as his room- mate. But what puzzles us is why he asks questions and does the opposite from what others tell him. Maybe he has a discrimi- nating mind. This debonair lad has many friends on the campus. His good nature and smiling disposition seems to draw them. That is a good thing because he will need to be able to attract friends when he gets in the busi- ness world, and some day he will be there. AGROM ECK.

It is said that he stays awake on a few of both the dates and classes. His pleasant manner and attention to duty have made for him friends of every worth while person on the campus, and also of Dean Cloyd. He is frequently seen in Greensboro, and peculiarly enough, is always sober. Methodist institutions, with the possible exception of Duke, always have that influence, and there is one of them in Greensboro. Nothing personal at all, of course. He is a cousin of Dr. Brooks, but we ' ve never heard that last gentleman brag- ging about it. Outside his relatives and diploma, he has nothing to recommend him, but we hope the world will be merciful.

It ' s along there about where the folks stop and feed, as they bring their tobacco to town. Before he came to State College it was just plain home; now it is his country estate. He went across the sound at Morehead City once, and still talks about his ocean travels, and the many things he saw while abroad. If, in later life, he is ever separated from his concomitant side-kick whose picture is ballast for the other side of this page, both of them will be benefited. Likewise, if he and State College are ever divided, the good results will be mutual. He is the kind of student every college has to have in order to realize it isn ' t perfect. Scholastically, he is a man of A-plus ability and D-minus ambition; socially, he is vice-versa. As we say of every senior, in later years he will bear watching; in fact, a little observation while he was here wouldn ' t have been misplaced.

He has a line that is as long as the ocean is deep, and is known far and wide as a heart-breaker. ' At times, Jim- mie has appeared so devoted to the lovely ones that his friends had deep concern for his welfare. We hesitate to say why. but for some mysterious reason at the end of his sopho- more year he suddenly changed his course from electrical engineering to the more re- fined curriculum in mud mixing.

Yet by applying himself to what he has to do he generally gets what he starts after. He is not a shark in the class room but account- ing and business are his hobbies. One thing that can be said for Bob, he sure is a heart-breaker and has girls all over Greene county, and the way he treats them must be the method Blue Beard used.

He is an Alabamiart by birth, a Virginian by environ- ment, an engineer by instinct, and a gentle- man by preference. If the supply of admirable characteristics was limited Dick would certainly have a monopoly. The first part of his college life was spent at V. P.

With the aid of the slightest good luck, success must surely be his, for he leaves here with a good academic record and the proper ambition and determination. In his off campus activities he has played well but a break in the game must soon come and he will try the wrong line on the right girl. MARSHALL L.

Of course, this success does not consist of material gains, but it is filled with a wealth that is intangible in nature, such as: friend- ships, experience, and an education. Here is how it happened. His smile brought his friends, his associ- ations gave him experience, his ability gave him self-reliance, and an education was the reward of his diligence. So far Luke has successfully resisted the portentious female onset, but recently the barricade, which has for so long protected his noble heart, has weakened before the siege of a most felicitous blonde.

In spite of Davie ' s inclination to jest, he always had a serious purpose as is evi- denced by his grades, which though not Pine Burr caliber, were well above the graduation requirements.

W. grew tired of the burst- ing banks and early morning formations. So the following year he made his appearance on our campus. J. W., as he is known to his friends at State College, has. during his stay here, established himself in the hearts of us all. His friendly disposition and winning per- sonality makes his friendship a decided asset to anyone. His abilities are only exceeded by his achievements; with little effort he has passed his successive courses and mastered the intric- acies of the textile building. As a friend and companion it would be hard to find a better one. J. W., it is with great sorrow that we must part. May the success that has ac- companied you in your college career remain with you in your journey through life.

BILL FITZ There appears to be a growing trend in the campus world of State College toward a bigger and better type of college man. As the proverbial manna from heaven appeared the above mentioned person came down upon us. And this brings us to the fifth year of Bill ' s sojourn here. The usual platitudes and inaptitudes hurled at the poor defense- less senior during write-up time are far from truthful and sometimes far from compli- mentary, therefore, we confine ourselves to facts: Fitz has. like all men of stamina and character, made some enemies he has also made many good friends, several good lodges, some good grades, and has had a good time. Like the rest of us, may he get a good job as his reward.

At St. Mary ' s he is known as Bee. at Meredith as Trog. and to his death lodge brothers as Rupert. He has another name at Con- verse but it couldn ' t be learned before this volume went to press. However, let us have done with such frivolity. True, this man has his moments of pleasure, but who of the common herd do not? His contention is, All ' s well that ends well, and he proved it by starting out in E. E. and changing to business adminis- tration. This was done so he could take courses under Uncle Elmo Wood, and Hard Boiled Moen. the man who flunked Red Grange! By all that was and still is wonderful he passed all his work, and made good grades, too. True, he didn ' t make Pine Burr, but then Lindbergh didn ' t either, and look how far he went. Here ' s to you Rupert, may you make as much of after life as you have of college may you live long and prosper.

WILLIAM GETTYS HOLL1S, NORTH CAROLINA Soils ' BILL This Hill Billy, better known as Bill, came to State the fall of 1925 from the hills of Rutherford county. After various experi- ments, he decided that teaching was to be his profession, but finally he decided that the course in soil geology was better suited lor his talents. Bill says that the women do more worrying about him than he does about them, but we wonder who it is he spends so much time composing letters to, and who all those letters he gets come from? Somewhere in the western part of the state, we would say, there is a fair maid that Bill is es- pecially interested in.

You are now face to face with this lad who made his appearance at State in the fall of 1925. Desiring to increase his knowledge, he decided that Dr. Randolph ' s course in chemical engineering was best suited to his talents. Lee tells us that he ' s from Selma, and by the number of week-ends that he spends at home, we feel sure that there is some fair damsel whose magnetism he can ' t resist. Legger? No! It ' s not necessary. His courses aren ' t serious enough to justify it, or his mind is such that his work is ac- complished with the minimum of effort. While others are taxing their brains to capacity in order to be eligible for Pine Burr or other honor societies, Lee is catching up with his sleep that he loses on week-ends. We cannot say that P. E. does not study for he sometimes cracks a book to see if the knowledge in print corresponds to his own. During these short four years it has been a pleasure to associate with you, Lee. May the world treat you kindly and your efforts never go unrewarded.

DOC If clothes made the man it would be easy to explain how Doc became one of the most popular boys on the campus, for he was chosen the best dressed man at State. But as clothes don ' t make the man, it must be his shrewd yet lovable character combined with a magnanimous personality. Not only is Doc popular with the stu- dents, but is equally so with the faculty, and he has made a wonderful record both socially and intellectually. A glance at the list of honors above will verify the statement. As for his relation with the fair sex we do not choose to elucidate, but when a man tells you he has been consistent with a cer- tain girl for nine years, you might as well say good evening.

VICTOR WORTH PARKS ASHEBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Business Administration Los Hidalgos; Randolph County Club. VIC In September. 1925, Victor Worth Parks arrived at N. C. State College. As his ac- tions were rather suspicious, the college au- thorities ordered an investigation. Con- fronted with the proof of his wrong doings Vic broke down and confessed that he came to State to get a college education. However, on account of his extreme youth and innocence the college authorities decided to overlook his misdemeanor and let him re- main at State. Nevertheless, he has never lost his determi- nation: and with the aid of a little studying and a little legging he has made a record we are all a little envious of. We hate to admit it but Vic is rather fickle in his relations with the fair sex. But we hope that some day he will find the girl of his dreams, raise a family of sturdy sons and beautiful daughters, and send them to State and Meredith. Farewell. Vic., many sincere wishes for a long, happy, and successful journey through life. Page Sixty-four AGROM ECK ARTHUR McK.

Bob has slowly but surely won his way into the hearts and confidence of his fellow students with the result that he has received every honor they could bestow upon him in his department. Coming from Newton, the very center of one of the oldest ceramic districts of the South, it was but natural that he should be- come a mud mixer and help to establish his profession in the State. Military is his chief avocation on the campus and it was his interest and the swanky regular army appearance that in- fluenced the major to pick him as one of his officers. Bob has had some splendid practical experience in his chosen profession and all things point to his becoming an engineer of whom N. C. State can be proud. AGROM ECK.

If the girl is a brunette he uses black, blue, and red; black for her hair, blue for her eyes and red for her rosy cheeks and lips, and if a blonde he uses a color of gold for her hair and so on.

On the hardwood court he led the team from forward position and in track he high jumps, broad jumps and throws the javelin and from these positions was ever consistent in adding points to help lead State to victory. Hank ' s social ability was not handi- capped by his athletic prowess as is shown by his being president of the Pan-Hellenic Council and by his sponsor. Although Hank was mighty good in scoring points in basketball and track, he was also good in scoring enough points to graduate with high scholarship records, which count in life. Thus Hank will bid the college fare- well with a record to be proud of and will greet the world with a record to conquer. Page Seventy-four AGROM ECK. ROBERT DEAN BUNN, 2 N HENDERSON.

In his junior year at Colorado Agricultural College he gave up college to serve our country during the great World War and has remained in the service. The captain has proved that old axiom, The will is mightier than the sword by completing his work in a man- ner that does credit to both him and the army. By driving from Fort Bragg to P.aleigh and return three times a week last year and doing a term of residence work while on furlough he met with ease all re- quirements for graduation. Such persistence and definiteness of purpose cannot go un- rewarded.

A host of friends and classmates wish him well.

It is only by coming in contact with him that one realizes his true greatness. The outstanding characteristic about Joe is that he is a well-rounded man. He is a student of nature, a wrestler, an officer in the R. O. T. C., and President of the Y. M. C. A. Thus people in every walk of college life are influenced by his inspiring person- ality. When the final whistle blows to the class of ' 29, State College will lose a friend, a pal. and one who has made life happier for many of his fellow students. However, his Christian influence will grow ever greater at State as the years wax and wane. So, Joe, eager eyes are watching you because we know that you are a great man in the making.

HERB Herbert can rightly be called a four-square man, and his motto is to be rather than to seem. Herbert has won his way into the hearts of many State College men. The cheerful smile that lights his face has brought sunshine into many lives here at State. A friend once remarked that Herbert was one of the best read men on the campus. Nature, good books, fine poetry, inspiring friends have moulded Herbert into a man of keen understanding, wide sympathy, broad interests, tender kindness, an active good will, loyalty and courage. In Herbert Green. State College gives to the world a true college man, a man with a passion for truth, a passion to serve, and with loyalty and courage to set a high goal and never rest until it is attained. When Herb bids old State farewell we can rest assured that somewhere there will be a workman that needeth not be ashamed and one who will be using his ten talents to make this world a better place in which to live. State is proud of you, Herbert. Page Seventy-seven HOMES FULTON LUTZ NEWTON, NORTH CAROLINA Dairy Manufacturing Catawba County Club; Agricultural Club; Pullen Literary Society.

At the present time he or no one else knows whether he is taking dairy manufacturing or soils. Consequently there is no doubt in our minds about the future holding many opportunities for him. Some of us who know of his frequent visits to Goldsboro and his present interest in one of the fair sex there, think that Dan Cupid, too, is bidding for a place among the things that matter to Creepy.

After working with highway engineers for awhile he decided to be one, and that he is. We knew when he came here that he had the ambition to succeed and he has. He has taken an active part in athletics and college activities, and has made friends with all. He has not, however, confined all of his time to books and campus activities, for it seems that he has decided that the family is the best institution for man (and woman) as one of the weaker sex of Baltimore ap- pears to have a strong hold on him. If we knew his ideals, we would know what to expect for his future, for when he starts to do anything he doesn ' t stop until it ' s done and done well.

The only trouble with Stanley is the fact that all his traveling is done in one direction. No use to ask why. Cherchez la femme. In spite of all his traveling.

In Mitchell the requisites of a successful engineer are found. During his four years at State College he has been one of the hardest and most consistent workers of our class.

Gene came to this institution with the determination to grasp his part of whatever State College had to hand out. Since that time he has lived up to his determination. He has proven his ability in both civil and construction en- gineering, in college activities, and socially as well. It has been said that an engineer is the man who serves his fellows in the greatest capacity. If this is true Gene will be one of the big engineers of the future; made so by his generous manners, optimistic outlook, and congeniality along with his quota of native ability. When the curtain falls on the class of ' 29 at least one fellow will remain in the hearts of his school mates, for Hubbard has made many friends and is sure to make good in whatever he undertakes.

SAM A little over three years ago, there arrived on our campus a short, well-statured blonde, from the highest county in the state, seeking the usual college life, who in later years be- came known as Sam. As time went on. Sam proved a victim of petting parties and developed into a typical lounge-lizard. Regardless of being the victim of such an agreeable disease Sam made a change in the middle of his college career and set forth on the old path of conquest known as future life. In his drastic reforms he made life- long friends which leads off on the path of popularity and success. Sam. being the type who knows when to reform and how to make use of his re- forms, will without doubt reach as high a success in life, in comparison, as the height of altitude from which he came.

PHIL A tall, slender, blonde of dumb appear- ance- from the outer surface but a mass of working energy viewed from underneath the surface; has climbed the road of success in his four years at N. C. State. In his freshman year he had two out- standing objectives: first, that of making A ' s. and second, that of giving some fair maiden a treat of campus gossip six nights out of every week. If there is any doubt as to what he did with the extra night, ask Mary. His second year proved to be more or less a repetition of the first, but in his third year he began to show a marked advancement over the first two. It was a period in his college career that he became noticeable around the campus for his activities, being chosen by many different organizations on the campus needing men of ability and will power. As for his senior year it is easy to assume that a person with Phil ' s reputation as a scholar and school-spirited man. will strive to put his Alma Mater on a higher plane in the world of education. Since it has been (recently) discovered that Phil intends to enter the educational field as a profession, his many friends wish him the greatest of success. Page Eighty-three AGROM ECK.

Success in Byron ' s chosen profession is highly probable since he is a good draftsman and a lover of fine arts. It is also true that Byron deserves credit for entering Dr. Brook ' s institution of learn- ing as Lumberton ' s only representative in ' 25 and indeed he has fought single-hand- edly a brave fight during his four years. After making scores of good friends with his pleasing personality, his only weaknesses have been the I. O. H.

ROBERT EUGENE KIMBALL ENFIELD, NORTH CAROLINA Architecture Delta Alpha Sigma; Track, 1, 2; Architectural Club; Technician Reporter, 3. BUCK Gene. as he is known to his friends, came to Raleigh on one of those through trains that go through Enfield and never stop. How he did this, no one has yet learned. But some say that he jumped off the train at Gary and ran into Raleigh. This was to show State College that he was a track man. Truly he did begin his early career as a long distance runner but soon learned that it required hard work rather than foot to become an architect. But Gene ' s many friends are afraid that his career is doubtful for he can ' t decide whether to be an architect or a husband. Gene is the type of fellow that every- body likes. An interest in athletics, college life, social life, and his studies has given him an all-round knowledge that will win him friends and success.

He has a rare personality which is hard to beat. Perhaps this is the reason for his unusual success as a salesman. Now as most good men have a weakness. Frank is no exception. Much of his time is taken up by the fairer sex. From far and wide he seems to be their drawing card. Along with all the side lines the rice- man has made an excellent record in his studies.

So far as we know there are none of the fairer sex who have any strings on him. One thing we are sure of though, the lucky girl may rest assured that there will never be any family quarrels for his answer will always be, Yes, my dear.

He has gone through four years of college (and passed all of his work) without puzzling out lengthy prob- lems, buying books, or studying. A model that many have tried so unsuccessfully to imitate is Byers. The elusive flame of knowledge has never found an ardent pur- suer in this lad, rather it was fondled and tossed aside as one would toss aside a match. Now do not get the idea that Byers is a loafer; he is one of the very few students who can really appreciate Shakespeare. Old plays and poems are meat and drink to him. Greek-, mythology and Byers are on very intimate terms. Now you have a picture of our hero, in- different (to everything except beautiful women), scholarly after a fashion and cyn- ical. The only energy Byers has ever shown is when he has 3 date (and you know who with) or when there is some good literature around. His interest in the latter is some- thing at which to marvel. One glance at the former and his interest is explained. I JAMES T.

Alec always finds a moment of leisure to make a new friend or to chat with an old one. How this young man ever came to enter State from Massachusetts remains a mystery, but we do know that since entering State College he has made a record that is enviable and that he has lived as a man among men.

Max Carpenter is the fair lad who claims the_ Queen City for his home, but only those who have seen him address his mail to the folks back home know how far he lives from Charlotte. He also contends that O. Max Gardner borrowed two-thirds of his name from him in order to boost his votes. Regardless of who he is or where he is from he is a Prince of a Fellow. He wears a genuine smile on his face, and worry is not in his curriculum. The only thing Owen ever grieved about was Professor Rick- er ' s leaving after he had secured a good leg on him. His ability as a student is demon- strated by the fact that he was elected to lead the electrical engineers during his senior year. To say the least, Carpenter knows many girls at Peace and St. Mary ' s. However, we ' re led to believe that the lucky one has not quite cinched a hold on him yet.

Rhode Island ' s congeniality extends be- yond the borders of this campus to oh, well, he never tells, but judging from his actions, somewhere a voice is calling. When the graduating class files out next June in the person of R. I. Mintz, State Col- lege will lose one of its outstanding sons, a son that she is glad to call her own. Remember, R.

Every tooth on every gear meshes perfectly; every wheel is keyed firmly to its shaft, and there is not a loose screw anywhere. When that piece of machinery gets started, there is no lost motion nor back-slap: there is accu- racy and performance in every turn. George came to us from over here at Hen- derson, somewhere. At first, nobody paid him any attention, but he arranged to cor- rect that. With an enti-diluvian Ford for pleasure and a job in the power-plant for profit, he made the world take note of his mechanical prowess. Now. in his latter days. he handles anything from whirl-wind motors to ditch-diggers. While his classmates snore on class, he is wide awake. One of his English profs asked him what was a metaphor, and he said his uncle had a meadow for his cows. His history prof asked him what happened in 1492: he said Abe Lincoln crossed the Dela- ware and fout the Yankees. His Sunday school teacher asked him what was the most comforting thing in the world; he said he thought it was a mustard plaster. Good boy, George; go out and do things. O. N. RICH GOLDSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Electrical Engineering Wayne County Club; A. I. E. E. OSCAR One better known on the campus as O. N. or Oscar is a native of Goldsboro: but he has not always made his abode in this town. Being an ardent believer in the theory that a man ' s education is not complete until he has gone places and seen things, and having something of the restless spirit in his blood he decided to leave his home and cast his lot with those who roam the world. He was not content with merely traveling over his own native land, but had a great desire to visit other countries of the world. With this idea in mind O. N. joined the mer- chant marines. Before the chance came to cross the ocean he changed his mind and re- solved to cease his wandering and try his luck with the electrical engineering depart- ment of State College. Oscar is a versatile young man. Be- sides his chosen profession of electrical en- gineering he is a mechanic and an artist. He says that he doesn ' t believe in being a jack of all trades and master at none, but rather believes in preparedness so that if one thing doesn ' t prove profitable another will. Oscar ' s ability, coupled with his gen- erous spirit, should gain for him a place in any line he may choose. Page Ninety-five 1929 AGROM ECK.

LITTLE RED Well, ladies and gentlemen, here is what gave Sampson county the blues. The mud- rings on his ankles are so prominent he uses them for .garters. When he left his old home county, chinquapins were the only nuts left. The school authorities dismissed half their teaching force, as that same proportion of the total scholastic problems had been solved. His local doctor made an x-ray examination of his head once (the county replaced the camera) . He is preparing himself to be a teacher in one of our high schools. May Heaven protect our little children. When he goes back home, as an educated man, his friends will probably sue the college for tak- ing money under false pretenses. Despite his obvious and regrettable faults, however. Leon ' s Ford and velvet manner have plunged many a feminine heart into the hornet-nest of despair. STEPHEN FRANK PETERSON KERR. NORTH CAROLINA Vocational Agriculture Poultry Science Club; Sampson County Club; Agricultural Club. PETE Pete. as he is known to all, enrolled with the class of 28, but he preferred to graduate with a more outstanding class, so therefore he dropped out and waited for the class of ' 29. When you are blue and in despair, find this Sampson county product and he will surely enliven you with his winning smile and jolly word for all. This is one of the lads that never studies but very little, but his scholastic standing is high above the average. How he manages to slip this over on the professors is queer, but at any rate he does it. Pete always finds time to associate with the fair sex, and he is one of the fellows that never allows his studies to interfere with his college life. Old boy, if you will greet everyone with that loud smile, you are sure to succeed in any task that you may under- take.

When he measured arms with Dean Brown, the necessity dawned on him to choose either scholastic or night records. He couldn ' t decide to confine himself to either, so he struck a happy medium. We all know that Oscar loves his women, but furthermore his associates know that he has a reserve, which is equally as deep as his love for women is broad. Good-bye, Red, you have made a suc- cess at State College and we hope that the same principles that have spelled success with us, will also spell success in your future.

And he has the quali- ties which constitute success, that of a gradual improvement in scholarship. Although we don ' t hear very much from Kelly on the campus, he has many friends that he has won since his entrance at State in the fall of ' 25. His friendly disposition, his quiet attitude, his willing assistance and his pleasing personality makes him a quick and lasting acquaintance and one State will regret to lose as a student but, better still to honor as one of its graduates when in the future we look back at our college life.

As a rule changing a college is a handicap, but for him it seems merely a change of climate. John is a quiet, capable boy: he will get along all right in the world, we know, be- cause he possesses just that independence that it takes to get there. All we find out about him is greatly in his favor, and that seems to be the expression of everyone else who looks into John ' s true self. He is just a solid, hard-working boy who can be de- pended upon at any time. During the three years John has been with us we have discovered that he is a most tal- ented musician. No doubt. America will benefit by John ' s talent and numerous other qualities. His musical talent is a certainty, and we know he is going to develop it to the best advantage. Good luck to John.

It is certain that he will make a suc- cess of what he starts to do. He is ambi- tious, a good student, and a hard worker. During his four years at State he has cer- tainly worked hard. He has tried to do his work well and succeeded, if you consider the fact that Paul hasn ' t busted a single course. In his quiet way he has made many friends by practicing the advice of Alexander Mac- lean when he said: All that this world knows of living Lies in giving and more giving; He who keeps, he sure he loses Friendship grows by what it uses.

Charlie soon conquered the band and the orchestra of the town and is now the pride of the college as he twirls and flips the drum sticks in order to inspire our foot- ball warriors on. Only Charles and his classmates realize that it takes more than a drummer to be an architect of fame and to keep the studies burning, so the drums were cast aside with Charlie pursuing his studies. During the nights that Charlie was forced away from the drawing room, he could be found beating the drum to the time of the heart beats of the Meredith girls. Charlie is one that you can ' t help from liking with his good-natured ways, with his wise cracks, and with his drums, he has made many friends and with his drawings he ex- pects to win the world. Thus with his de- termination, he has stuck the four years out in college and some day you will read where Charles W. Connelly, architect, designs the magnificent city hall of Charlotte. AGROM ECK.

WILLIAM THOMAS MAXWELL RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA Chemical Engineering Tau Beta Pi; Gamma Sigma Epsilon; Chemical Engineers ' Society. MAX During registration, in the fall of 1925, when we as freshmen looked up and down the long line of our future classmates for a familiar face, we saw Maxwell for the first time. Taller than the average, we looked up to him. We still look up. but now at his college attainments. As a good fellow Maxwell is hard to beat: as a student, unexcelled as his record shows. But all his time has not been taken up by his relentless pursuit of elusive knowledge. Many week-ends have found him flivver- ing down to Hamlet in search of the fairer sex. We wish you luck in love as wel l as in your chosen profession. By your work shall ye be known, and if work makes the man, Maxwell ' s success is assured. With his personality, ability, and application to help him. we prophesy great success for him in his profession.

RED Vann has certainly made a huge suc- cess of his four years at State College. Be- sides being an all-round fellow who is liked by all his classmates, he has made surpris- ingly high grades. He has set a new high mark for future chemical engineers to aim at. He is a credit to the school. In campus activities. Van never lags behind, but with his shoulder to the wheel pushes with all his might. A natural leader, he is followed willingly: but through no effort of his own.

We have here none other than John Thomas Mason, a gallant lad better known to his friends as Johnny. Johnny came to us a blushing pink cheeked youth of fif- teen years, with a determination to conquer the electrical world. His face was as free of whiskers as a girl ' s, but he is leaving us an experienced man requiring the magic touch of a razor once each week. One has only to look at this young man to see that he is a favorite with the fair sex. Gee! But he likes to give the pretty maidens a thrill by his presence. From all reports and his many visits, the greatest joy of his young life lives on Edenton street. With the handicap of the fair sex, Johnny has filled many offices in honorary organizations and obtained a scholastic rec- ord that any State man would be proud to claim. Johnny is an athlete of ability. State will lose a gentleman and a scholar when he takes his place in the world, and expects him to rise to the heights of his chosen profession.

He knows them everywhere and if he doesn ' t know them, he just does. Week-end in. week-end out, he is always running about, to break the heart of some fair maiden. If still waters run deep, the ocean is not far away, for this quiet, unassuming young man is still with us. Originally from the Junction (Roanoke - Rapids - Rosemary) and polished by Greensboro. Lewis is a fine example of a true friend. Steady and hard working, he is one of the foremost of Ross Shumaker ' s architectural engineers, and an athlete of no mean ability. Our confidence and respect will follow you where ' er you go and we wish you the best of luck with your designs upon life as an architect. Here ' s to a true gentleman of the class of ' 29 and as true a friend as you will find.

NARD The two predominant characteristics which Bernard possesses that aren ' t made plain in the foregoing list of honors should be men- tioned. His ability to leg has far surpassed the craftsmanship age. It appears as an art of which he is past master. All men who ap- preciate the art must revel in the finesse with which Bernard works. Let us merely mention the second charac- teristic of which we spoke. The guy who said that what he knew about women was nothing should consult Bernard. There he could sit at the feet of a master. It is true that he has been at error a few times, but his mistakes have only gone to strengthen his technique. Bernard ' s record the last four years is enviable. He has achieved success in all the fields in which he entered. It is easy to be- lieve that his success in the following years will equal that of his college career. He shall occupy a position of respect and esteem among his fcllowmen. GEORGE KTMBALL MILLER OLD FORT, NORTH CAROLINA Mining Engineering KIM Kim believes in the geological analysis of all problems. In all the bull sessions in which he casts his line he soon wanders off into some deep, remote, unknown theory advanced by some geologist. And right here is where the others have to retreat till Kim reaches the point of marginal unit. But few stories are complete without a girl and until recently the snaring of hearts has not been sighted among Kim ' s ac- complishments, but last year he emerged from his lair, put on his lady smashing habits, and started on the trail of the weaker sex. However, he seems not to have special- ized to any great extent on any of his num- erous lady friends. At the end of this year Kim will greet the world with an enviable record behind him as the records of the registrar will show and we are sure he will go forward in his field with great success.

Jessie has made a host of friends, not only in Raleigh, but in the neighboring towns. Nowhere have we found a better friend than Jessie. He is always ready to lend a helping hand when we are stuck at a dance or anywhere else. And we find that he not only enjoys helping us, but has an unusual ability to do so. This lad was almost stolen by one of the fairer sex, but after a strenuous hold-back he was retained.

He has a wonder- ful personality, which is boosted by his abil- ity and willingness to shoot bull. His appearance is always neat, and he has plenty of self-confidence. We have found him to be a real sport, a pal, a friend, and a gentle- man at all times. He has but one outstanding weakness, that is the ladies. He knows a great number of them intimately, and loves all he knows. We feel sure that Otto will be successful at anything he tries to do in the business or social world, and his ambition in these re- spects is high.

Seig has the distinction of keeping the south gate on Riddick Field during the ath- letic contests for four years. This shows his stick-to-it-ivcness which he has also applied to his studies. He was one of Major Early ' s battalion adjutants which proves his love for the mili- tary life. In class or on the campus he is always the same. With a smile and a strong de- termination he meets the tasks as they come and seldom leaves one undone. He has proven himself a gentleman and a loyal friend. Success is sure to crown his every effort. Page One Hundred Sixteen WILLIAM EDWARD MOSELEY KINSTON, NORTH CAROLINA Electrical Engineering Theta Tau; Tau Beta Pi; I.enoir County Club; A. I. E. E. BILL This great gift that Kinston slipped into State College has proved to be outstanding. From a glance at the picture you may not see it all. but we find in him a great piece of humanity. In that great field of electricity Bill has found his calling. He ranks among the best in Goats Gang and Goat finds it hard to produce one better. Bill ' s record on the campus as a scholar will be hard to break. We find a very few that are able to reach or surpass him. When it comes to a socialer Bill is very much recognized. His friends of the fair sex extend over a large territory, having a girl in every town. We find that a majority of his week-ends out of town have been spent with friends other than boy friends. He finds someone more than professors that will bite his winning line. Whether Bill fishes in eddy currents with hysteresis loops or gigs induction mo- tors with Mr. Westinghouse. we are sure he will make good. Page One Hundred Seventeen HENDRIK J.

OBIE In the fall of 1926 this young giant, familiarly known to us all as Obie, stalked into our midst. He immediately formed an alliance with one Professor C. C. Cunn ing- ham.

He made conquests in other fields however, being a man of great versatility. As a subduer of feminine hearts he once again walked off as the Victor Ludorum. He then left us for a year, and went to Cor- nell. Here the conqueror was conquered, for he came back to us this year with a charm- ing bride. Despite his many activities, this young African has an enviable scholastic record. We believe that Obie is going to Missouri to further his studies in agriculture.

When Gordon came to State he came with a determination to make good and he has done this. As wielder of the brush and pen- cil he has obtained distinction among his fellow architects. In spite of the time Gordon has devoted to the architectural department he has found time to accomplish great things in the activi- ties of State College as well as the social life of Raleigh. During his stay at State he has won many and lasting friends by his steady, congenial, disposition and faithfulness and trustworthi- ness in every thing he undertakes has already assured him of a success in life; so we leave Gordon knowing the reputation he has won in college will give him a shove past the knocks in life, and to him we wish the best in life.

PEANUT GOBER This versatile young son of eastern North Carolina came to State College with a de- termination which was unsurpassed by any of the fellow members of his tribe. Gober at first entered the school of en- gineering but as time went by there developed within him an inward calling from the field of chemical engineering. Thus, he cast his lot with the chemicals. Scholastically, he has acquired a record to be proud of. Socially, he has accomplished what few do. What more could be required of a typical college boy? During the period of Gober ' s stay at State College, he has acquired numerous friends who are expecting him to be a shin- ing light in his profession. These friends and associates do most sincerely wish him the greatest success that he may acquire in his selected field, chemical engineering. Page One Hundred Eighteen . AGROM ECK.

SPEEDY First let ' s explain the nickname of Speedy, which has been given to this man by his classmates. Since Speedy was not always the first to get dressed, etc., well, therefore the nickname, which has always been in fun. Speedy is a true State man and an ideal good fellow. Has anyone ever asked a reason- able favor of this man and been refused? No! He is ready and willing to help others at all times, even at an inconvenience to him- self. This characteristic alone would mean success, but Speedy has many other good traits. One of his outstanding traits is his ability to make and keep friends. Not only has he friends among his fraternity brothers, but throughout the entire student body and faculty, as well as the fair sex. Speedy has taken little interest in affairs outside his studies. Most of his spare time has been taken up with his work in the P. O., which proves that he is willing to work. There is no doubt about Speedy mak- ing a success of anything he starts. So we bid this man Godspeed in life ' s great battles and we know that we will hear from him in the future.

Ed came to us last year from Davidson so that he might study the course that he felt like he would want to make his life ' s work. He is a hard worker and has won for himself an enviable record in the textile school. Ed is well liked on the campus and has made a host of friends in the two years he has been here. All who have come in con- tact with him have been impressed with the seriousness of his purpose. He is quiet and unassuming, yet with sunny disposition and his eyes carrying that spark of mischief he plays havoc with the fairer sex. Because of his likable disposition and hab- its of perseverance in everything he under- takes he is bound to succeed in every way and to win all the battles of life. GERALD LANIER OWENS, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA He is called Runt, this tall, dark and handsome member of the civil engineering department. This is a misnomer. He is neither a runt in stature nor scholastic abil- ity. We would refer you to the records of the registrar for his ability to master the sub- jects of his choice and to anyone for a nu- merical estimate of his length. In the statement that Runt embodies the materials of good citizenship would be a trite assertion. But those little qualities of character which we have learned through four years of association are the ones which endear him to us and. in truth, show the real mint of the man. The class of ' 29 is indeed fortunate to have such a member. If he succeeds in the world as he has succeeded during his four years ' stay at State College, then he will in- deed be a leader of men.

Seriously speaking, though, Sit is a mighty fine fellow; an admirable and well- liked man; a man of strong character, a true sportsman and a just man. These charac- teristics combined with a pleasing person- ality have gained him many friends. With his keen judgment, his unlimited energy, his million dollar smile and his heart of gold. Sit will be a valuable asset to any firm. We congratulate you beforehand. Sit, because we know that there is no doubt that you will be a success in life.

However, the first of 1928 he decided to move to a less mili- taristic institution and so he came to com- plete his education under T-Foot. Since leaving Clemson the work he has done here has given him a degree from that college. Thus, with the one that State College is go- ing to give him, he will tackle the textile world with two degrees instead of the usual one. Most of the short time that W.

His weakness for going places, especially if a football game or a woman be involved, is well known. No matter how far or how near he was always ready to go.

His quiet, unassuming manner soon won him a host of friends on the campus, for to know him was to like him. His frank, generous nature made it indeed a privilege to have him for a friend.

Rather silent on his peak, he surveys the vast expanse of life and its prob- lems that are waiting for him. I would call him a granite man. he is able to stand great strain, face setbacks and looses, and not go back to lower ideals. Even sorrow has strength for an enduring person like Burgess.

JOE This tall, gawky son of the foothills of western North Carolina breezed down to State College to enter the school of agri- culture in the fall of 1925. His main object in entering this institution was to find if there were any of the professors or students here with which he could agree. Joe is very original in thought and his chief de- light is to come out of the big end of the horn in an argument with about a dozen of his friends. Although Joe was quite college in society and a leader in I. O. H. R., he has a very good scholastic record. During his four years at State College, Joe has done much work in poultry science.

RAMOS Francisco Ramos entered State College the fall of 1927 as a junior to play with cot- ton, rayon, and the different colors of pretty dye over in the textile school, after complet- ing his freshman and sophomore years at Texas A. and M. Ramos is from Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico, where the weather is very hot, but he likes our climate, because he says it makes him feel like the Christmas turkey full of life; also he likes the wind of Windy over in the textile mill, another climatic condition, so to speak. The one physical defect that Ramos has is that he has ingrowing toenails. That ' s the reason his feet are so small. Instead of growing on out as they should they grow back in the form of ingrown toenails. Yes, and another thing about Ramos is that he is small in stature, but he brought this on him- self by bathing too much, which keeps him drawed up. He ' s made of good material but he just will draw up when he takes a bath for no reason at all. I might have mis- judged the reason, although for his being so small, perhaps, he ' s not as big a man at State College as he was at Texas A. and M., or down in Mexico. Good things come in small packages. Ramos wants to know why cauliflower isn ' t cabbage with the cramp.

He is not of the ingenuousness type, but he is of the circumlocution of affability type, although he will apostatize for amusement ' s sake with ease. Good sport. Ask the boys who chum with him. When Plum came to State College he entered the school of textile engineering, but upon realizing the misfit changed to the school of agriculture, specializing in soils, in which he has made an outstanding record. Ask the professors who fooled with him. One other thing about Plum is that he can ' t decide which is the best, an-Ford or an-Chevrolet. He has an-Chevrolet. Plum wants to know why Old Man Sunshine Don ' t Get Out and Get Under the Moon. SAM NEWELL TYSON STANTONSBURG, NORTH CAROLINA Social Science Freshman Baseball. NICK NELLIE Clear-cut, thoughtful, of retiring nature. Nick is one of those rare individuals who believe in action rather than words. He is not given to seeking the spotlight; yet in after life, his undeniably sterling character, his unquestioned ability, and his winning personality will undoubtedly put him there. We can do no more than wish for him that his merit will earn its just reward that will be enough. AGROM ECK. THOMAS MARTIN VERNON STONEVILLE.

TOM Between running home to Stoneville, Greensboro and getting advertisements for the Wataugan, T. M. Vernon has but little time to spare for anyone but five or ten of the most select from the local 400. A business man at heart, Vernon has made the Wataugan advertisements what they are today. Much work went into the making of the magazine. Tom. as he is quite often called, is a persistent cuss. He manages to sell most anything to most anybody.. Last summer he sold automobile seats, not the regular sized seats, but cushions. An old Ford and a supply of cushions carried Tom all over the state. He sold ' em, too. Business administration claimed this young man from the very start. Dean Brown ' s courses appealed to the youth. He accepted and is now an experienced business man. Watch him.

His entire interest lies in the college news publication and the dailies throughout the state. He has never gone out for high grades, but has put a major part of his time to helping build a bigger and better news medium for the State College students and others who are inter- ested in news of the college. Holding the position this year of managing editor of the Technician culminates four years of unex- celled service for his college in this line, and all his friends know he will make a success in journalism, his chosen field of work.

To this man do we pay all the homage due a gentleman par excellence. A mix- ture of sentiment, virtue, intellectual vivacity an d serene spirituality which blend into a rare combination of perfect manhood. When the curtain of time swings down and the evening shadows of his life draw near, it shall be said of this man: He has been a friend to man; he has fought a good fight, and his reward shall be a crown of glory.

CARL Charles Gordon Taylor is one of the many students who came to State filled with hopes of becoming an engineer. After trying all the courses in the engineering school, he de- cided that he could contribute more to so- ciety in the field of business; however. Dean Brown soon convinced him that it would be better to complete his study at State by tak- ing a short course in industrial management. Although Carl has been a bit changeable he has been a good student, and his popu- larity is truly recorded in the number of friends he has at State College.

Frank ' s good nature and wit has won him many friends on the campus and throughout the state. His great power with the girls is beyond our explanation, unless he has it. We predict great achievements for Frank in the future, because with his knowledge of chemical engineering, he is sure to be out- standing in that field.

C., Sergeant, 3, Captain, 4. PARRISH After a good stiff dose of auto mechanics in iy21, Parrish decided to finish high school and come back for something more worthy of himself, civil engineering. We think that he has chosen well, because he has common sense, a qualification so necessary to be an engineer. Parrish always gets those A ' s right along and without much trouble, either. He never worried over points. His favorite courses were economics and business law. He started in the class of ' 28 but dropped out at the end of his sophomore year to help the Old North State build some roads around Boone and North Wilkesboro. He got lots of experience in building roads. Parrish, if Tennessee is lucky enough to get you back, we hope you much success in building that bridge across the Tennessee river. CLYDE PHILIP MASON SWAN QUARTER, NORTH CAROLINA Civil Engineering A. S. C. E. ; Leazar Literary Society. C. P. Here is a man who has learned that si- lence is golden. He has very little to say except in support of his views. He will argue with professor and student alike until he sees he is wrong, then he is quick to ad- mit his mistake. Mason ' s outside work kept him from tak- ing part in athletics, though he has taken part in several other campus activities. Whenever the professors have need of a reliable man their first thought is of Mason. He has worked, both in the classroom and out, and though his scholastic record is not the best, he has learned well those things which will stand him in good stead in his future work. So here ' s to you, C. P. We have known you as a gentleman and a friend, and as we part we wish for you the best life has to offer. Page One Hundred Thirty-three AGROM ECK. JOHN RUSSELL THOMPSON CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA Accounting Sigma Alpha Kappa; Pi Delta Sigma; Mecklen- burg County Club; Business Club. TOMMY What terms shall I find sufficiently simple in their sublimity sufficiently sublime in their simplicity for the mere enunciation of my friend Johnny? It is not my purpose to falsely portray this man, therefore my difficulty in finding words to enunciate. His true personality is not revealed in the crowd, and is found only through personal relation with him. I find in Johnny a per- sonality full of latent ' characteristics; a mind endowed with an intellectual storehouse of potential possibilities; a character made up of those attributes which causes him to re- spond to duty. With these superb qualities moulded to- gether in the shape of a man there is no doubt but that his career subsequent to that of seeking an education will be nothing less than success. ROGER WINFIELD HARVELL NEWTON, NORTH CAROLINA Business Administration Catawba County Club; R. O. T. C. Band, Ser- geant, 3, Captain, 4; Concert Band; Orchestra; Order of Yellow Dog. WHOOP If the band is playing. Whoop will be there. We are assured of this by the interest Roger has taken in the musical organizations during his four years here. His value to State as a musician is shown by the fact that he has the distinction of being captain of the band. But Whoop has not devoted all of his time to music, as he has established himself as a good student and a friend worth knowing. Every student has a number of activities outside of regular college work. Roger has been a faithful checker of the dime stores for four years. The remainder of his time has been spent slingin g bull consistently, legging Daddy Price. visiting the head man, and arguing with Captain Hoyle. his home town rival for honors. Although Roger has stated his fears of flunking out often he has never succeeded in flunking a course, but we are sure he will be more successful in whatever he chooses as his rage One Hundred Thirty-four AGROM ECK WILLIAM NIXON SUNBURY, NORTH CAROLINA Mechanical Engineering NICK In following Nick ' s college career, we are struck by numerous outstanding qualities of character. We credit his record as a student to his ability to grasp the truth of mechanical en- gineering. But quite unexpectedly, he is idealistic in his regard for our contempor- aries of the opposite sex. Now Nick has sailed the seven seas, and has such command of nautical terms that at times we are left stranded on reefs of technicalities. There are rumors that he has rearranged his philosophy of women since visiting some of the seaports of Germany, the home of Schopenhauer. Nick has removed the covers from his forward guns, and is sailing ahead at several nautical knots an hour. He will man the enemy ' s deck, and return to habor and anchor with a prize worthy of an excellent campaign.

He is a type of fellow that we cannot help but like. He is great in the ways that make people great. He is liked by all that come in contact with him, admired and respected by all. We all look forward to the day when we put our hand on his shoulder and say, Newton, you have done your work well and have made a good example as to the worthiness of our school. Just re- member, Smillie, that we are pulling for you. We wish you the greatest of success and happiness. Paqe One Hundred Thirty-five JOHN T. HUMBLE, n ASHEBORO, NORTH CAROLINA Accounting Kappa Alpha Sigma; Los Hidalgos. JOHN In a world that is full of evolution, it is hard to tell what the specimen above will evolute into. But since science is doing won- ders in its chosen fields, probably there is a chance of this young lad ' s future being brighter than the past. In scientific legging, John T. knows the theory from a to z. Since his freshman year he has ascended the ladder from d ' s to a ' s, with the assistance of a few of his beloved professors. In addition to the above theory, he is also noted as a reputed arguer. He will even argue with a Woman ' s Home Com- panion when the pages are blank. John T. ' s winning personality has not only won him many arguments but has also made him numerous life long friends among the students here. We are sure that the same personality and character will carry him to the heighth of success in the business world. w NOAH OMNES BRANSCOM, n PASSION, NORTH CAROLINA Agricultural Economics Alpha Zeta; Agricultural Club; Animal Hus- bandry Club; White Spades. NOAH If, while walking around on the campus during the past four years you should have happened to see approaching you a person who appeared to be going no place in par- ticular, and in a similar mode of life; that person would have been none other than Noah. At no time could one be safe in saying Noah was going to some definite place, be- cause this happens to be contrary to Noah ' s disposition, as he never knew at what time he was going to run into one of his many friends, and consequently he would get into an argument and forget where he had started. But one thing that can be said of Noah is, that he never forgot how to win his argument. Although Noah was fond of arguing he never made an enemy nor lost a friend as his spirit of attack was irreproachable, and since Noah is blessed with such splendid tact and a smooth personality, old mother time can do nothing other than place Noah in the lights of success.

In this lad we find most anything that is characteristic with a college student. Brock is just the type of fellow that makes a suc- cess of any task, and no doubt the person- ality and alertness which he possesses are in a large measure responsible. In Brock we find a friend that is as true as the days are long. When in sorrow he is always willing to cheer you up. and when in trouble he is always willing to help you and also willing to share your troubles with the fair sex. As to the girls, well, they all like him, but some one else stole John Moses ' heart before he ever landed at State College. Nevertheless when a girl smiles at him he has to stop and say, Wh! how I would , and in a few days he has some very im- portant business in Greensboro. Brock, you are a real man, and worthy of the best that life has. and in parting we wish you health and success throughout the rest of your life ' s work. NEILL D. CURRIE, T p A RAEFORD, NORTH CAROLINA Marketing Business Club. NELL If anyone wants to know anything about business or accounting just ask Neill; he is an authority on the subject. Catchy smile, intoxicating laughter, and distinctive person- ality have been a source of great pleasure to his many friends at State. In fact, all State is a friend of Neill ' s. He is a lion among the ladies and although we believe his heart has already been pierced by the arrow of Dan Cupid, he never admits that a mem- ber of the weaker sex has taken him off his feet. Neill. our modest little senior, as you leave us you will take with you our sin- cerest wishes that you continue in life that work you have zealously and honorably started at State. Page One Hundred Thirty-seven VIRGIL LYNWOOD TAYLOR HOOKERTON, NORTH CAROLINA Civil Engineering Mu Beta Psi ; Lenoir County Club ; American Society of Civil Engineers ; Concert Orchestra ; ellow Dogs. SLIM Four years ago a tall, slender boy left Hookerton, North Carolina, to become a part of S ' tate College and to prepare himself for a career as a civil engineer. Slim did just that thing. He set up a goal and steadily worked toward it. .In his studies, Virgil has given a very good account of himself. He has proven to be a consistent hard worker and is looked upon by Professors Mann and Wooten as a man on whom they could rely. But Slim is also well known for ac- complishments other than in his studies. During all four years he has been a member of Daddy Price ' s State College Orchestra and has made many friends on his numerous trips throughout the state. He is secretary of the musical fraternity, Mu Beta Psi, and played a large part in making it a success. Socially, Slim doesn ' t have very much to say but it is suspected by many of his friends that the many letters he gets could not all be of a business nature. After looking over Slim ' s college rec- ord, one can have little doubt as to the suc- cess that he will be. Success comes to him who tries and that is exactly what Virgil will do. SAMUEL MITCHELL PURCELL, JR. SALISBURY, NORTH CAROLINA Textile Manufacturing Tompkins Textile Society. SAD SAM Here is a gentleman whom most of us know as Sad Sam. Why the sad part of the name we do not know, for he is any- thing but sad. Textile seems to be th is slim youth ' s chosen profession, and he has been a faith- ful member of the class of ' 29 except for one time when he decided that he should be the rightful rival of Lindbergh. Sam didn ' t seem to take to the air so well; conse- quently he is still a member of our class. Perhaps he will yet realize his high and lofty ambition. Who knows? We wish for him the greatest success pos- sible, and may his success be as great as his ideal is lofty. Pane One Hundred Thirty-eight AGROM ECK. Senior Class History LONELY we were when we entered the drives of the State College campus, five hundred green, home-loving, and miserable high school seniors that some metabolism had turned into college freshmen . . . lonely we are, as we pack our equipment once more to pass through the gates that now adorn the entrance, as alumni, heads down and charging the outside world full speed to bring up eventually against a stone wall or one of its openings that lead to the flowery meadows beyond. We were lonely then because we had just broken the home ties; we are lonely now because each of us realizes the time has come when he cannot rely on the aid of his classmates but must get out and hoe his own row. The last four years seem as but months. In that seemingly short time from September, 1925, when first we came here, until today there have been crowded many incidents, many quarrels, many happy memories. When in the sessions of sweet, silent thought, with inward comfort of a warm, full dinner, outward bliss of a log fire and an easy chair, the wife on the other side of the table, the kid asleep in his crib upstairs, the dog dozing on the hearth at our feet the smoke rings circling upward will form a picture of our freshman days. Days when we were unused to the ways of the Capital City, of Greensboro, and of Greenville, we spent in making trips to see those who later will be across the table from us, brightening the home of some one we never knew, thinking of us at home as we, in a distant land, wish they were near who knows yet how it will be? Nine months it took us to get used to the ways of the collegiate world, and when we had become old timers and were out of the freshman period, there was a glory in being sopho- mores with power to make the new men on the campus carry our trunks upstairs, run errands, collect the mail each night and carry it to the P. O. To a lesser extent than the previous year we enjoyed the monkey shines of the freshmen, the kangaroo courts, because we were not those mostly concerned, we were merely the audience. Sophisticated we appeared to the new men as we thronged Riddick Field and the Frank Thompson gymnasium, the campus buildings and the streets of Raleigh. To them we seemed to know how to do everything, just as the sophomores had appeared to us the year before. Our bare heads and permanent dearth of matches were ideals to which the class below us aspired. Then, in June, there came a break. No longer was our class on the throne of idealism ; it had been usurped by another sopho- more division. We no longer had charge of instruction of new men. toward us campus eyes were no longer turned, to mention us no longer brought a sense of inward uneasiness to the underclassmen. We had become juniors. Three years we had been here, and in this third one there came the slump before the final rise to the peak in the four-year cycle. To the rest of the campus we were nonenities, nothing but juniors. We had lost the prestige of the sophomore, had not yet acquired the dignity of the senior. This was the outward view the world beheld. Within each of us, this year was just as important as the others, since we continued to store up incidents that later would be recalled as worthy of representing our college days. The upward trend of the curve during the summer of 1928 showed the world and the campus we were nearing the peak of seniority. Some envied us. others made no secret of the fact they were glad of another year to loaf before going out into the world. The unusual holiday brought about by an epidemic just before Christmas gave many of us time to catch up on the work that should have been done two or three years ago. and later on we were pleased at being relieved of taking examinations for the last two terms that is some of us were. The peak was reached when we had passed this second period of examinationless study. We were ready to be graduated, to be sent home or to a foreign state or country, to grapple with the world in an attempt to put its shoulders to the ground. There were sad faces in the long lines of black-robed men as they marched into Pullen Hall auditorium and were given their sheepskin. Once again we were lonely; once more the home ties had been broken. We were leaving our home of four years standing and going away. As we parted at the gates, realizing chances of meeting all together again would be few, in a sudden rush there came up all of the things that had happened during the four years. They were to constitute the memories we were to carry away with us. to comfort us in the future, and to glory in telling others who had rather tell their own. And so, gratefully, sadly, and admiringly, we left our Alma Mater.

ROBERTS Page One Hundred Forty-three AGROM ECK History of Golden Chain Golden Chain Senior Honor Society of State College is the outgrowth of a desire on the part of members of the Senior Class of 1926. The idea of such an organization was first expressed in an editorial in the Technician. The suggestion made there was encouraged by President Brooks and other adminis- trative officers. As a result nine teachers and officers of the college were asked to select twelve outstanding members of the Senior Class who should become the first twelve links in the Golden Chain. Thus there was founded an honor society of members of the Senior Class which has as its purpose the fostering of college tradi- tions, the creation of new traditions and the encouragement of every enterprise among State College men that will serve to bind in closer union all students of the college and which endeavors to make the State College community life happier and fuller. The annual tapping exercise, in which twelve men of the Junior class are tapped as a token of their membership in this ever-lengthening chain, has come to be one of the outstanding exer- cises of the college year. Already this society has established and encouraged customs which are adding to the prestige of State College, and election to membership in Golden Chain is considered one of the highest honors which can be conferred upon a student in his Senior year. Page One Hundred Forty-four J U N I O AGROM ECK. Junior Class Poem Let us sail on! Let us go onward, To our future goal now nearcd, And let us feel that we ' re homeward Bound, in a life that once was feared. Of course there is yet, as we may learn, A long but faithful story, That bids us forward to never turn, From our course of Fame and Glory. For now we perceive our great desire, Realizing, in all, what we have met, But yet we live to win what we admire, Without a thought of mortal fret. For what we ' ve sought, is farther, still It seems dearer as the days go by, Guiding us closer with a greater will, As high as the sparkling sky. And as we think of the weariness, That it means to carve a striving soul, We think of our reign of happiness We ' re encountering to reach our goal. Though Time as yet, has a year to bide, When learned and nearer we ' ll pass, From the doors of State, from which we stride As a Memorable Junior Class. MELVIN R. MCKENZIE, Poet.

With the backward I I a P ara 8 ra ph will suffice for a hundred years. But not so with the J -s Class of ' 30. Their achievements have been so many and short be- tween, that a year ' s lapse more than taxes the capacity of this section. So if any event is omitted the reason has been explained. Traditions and ancient dictums have literally been smashed within the past three years. Not only has the campus changed physically, but most of all it has changed spiritually. The Class of ' 30 supplied the spirit that was to make for a bigger and better State College. But what has this particular class done to bring about such improve- ments? Taking the least important first, there was the football team. State College is more than a stadium surrounded by a group of fraternity houses, but it takes an awful hick to argue that a good football team does not help the spirit of any college. In this day of press agents and four-page sport sections a winning team is a valuable asset for any college. Well, the Class of ' 30 gave to State College its first winner since 1921. With the coming of Warren, Lepo, Adams, and a score of other freshman ath- letes in the fall of 1926 came a State Championship the following year. In the other sports, too, has the Class of ' 30 done its part. We must take some of the glory for having good basketball, track, and baseball teams. Don ' t think that I am looking at the world from a bleacher ' s seat on Rid- dick Field, for sports have not been the major achievement of our class. Jn scholarship we have been most outstanding. At a recent meeting of Pine Burr the largest class of candidates in the history of the college were initi- ated. The president of the organization said that he was glad to see such an increase in numbers as it was an indication that State College was becoming more scholarly. This record number of initiates was from the Class of ' 30. In the publications the class has made known its mettle. From all indi- cations next year State College may expect a good crop of writers and editors. But again, there is more to college life than scholars and athletes. Every well-balanced school has its social men. The Class of ' 30 has theirs. If yo u don ' t believe this ask the young women of Raleigh and Meredith College. No friends, we aren ' t trying to appear perfect. We have our faults and plenty of them. But we do feel that we have built a good foundation and are off to a flying start. The college has something to expect from us, and it is our duty to not fail. The historian of next year can tell you how we fulfilled our trust. ELBERT H. ROBERTS, Historian. Page One Hundred Seventy SOP HOMO RE S AGROM ECK. Sophomore Class Poem EN AVANT En Avant! was the command given Just two short years ago. We ' ve tramped since then as the soldiers tramp, With snap, vigor and show. When two more pass and the tramp is ended, And inspection made of the journey, May we lift our heads to Thirty-one ' s colors And give to her this tally. We ' ve packed our books with a manly stride, We ' ve spent the watch at night. We ' ve executed orders with promptness and pride, And worked when we should and where. We ' ve taken the hand of the buck next to us And helped him along when he stumbled, And we ' ve made friends with our differences, And stuck and driven off troubles. May this spirit last and the battle of life Will fall before order and promptness, For old State College and Thirty-one All glory, honor and success. RUFUS G. VlCK.

This day in the eyes of the Class of ' 3 1 is quite as memorable as the event of the fall of the Roman Empire was to the surviving Romans. From the elevated plane of dignified and all-mighty high school seniors, we fell to the meek and submissive plane of fresh- men, and with the fall came also the stripping of all previous dig- nity, self-esteem, and privileges. And great was the fall, thereof. We, through our unity and oneness, gave to State ' s athletic clubs our whole-hearted support, while they marched through the din of battle to the state championship. When they were victorious, we rejoiced and proclaimed our victory through the streets of Raleigh and even unto the uttermost byways of the city; but when our teams were checked by the cold, clammy hand of defeat we, in the dark and gloomy recesses of our mourning dormitories, paid on the end the price of vengeance and retribution dealt by the mighty arm of sophomores. Just as the Pilgrims in rebelling against persecution were unified, we, as sufferers in common were unconsciously woven into a brotherhood welded into an irresistible chain of power and purpose, destined to march victoriously through four years at State College; eliminating here and there weak, retrogressive, unfortunate and undetermined links. In spite of the fact that we were goats of tradition there was brooding in our brotherhood, a will which culminated in our first victory. This victory, abolition of the bar- barious gauntlet, came in our first year and is attributed mainly to ' 31 ' s efforts. We thought we were right, followed the dictates of our conscience, and so we stand behind our conviction. This year our chain and brotherhood entered its second stage of the war on September 18, 1928, when about three hundred war- riors returned to enlist in the regiments of Colonels Riddick, Shaub, Brown, Nelson and Browne, and to execute the commands of Gen- Page One Hundred Eighty-one AGROM ECK. eral Cloyd and Commander-in-Chief Brooks. From out of our ranks we took links to act as scouts and guide us safely in our charge against wrong policies, in our onslaught on education, and in our advance toward victory. These scouts were: Mercer, Stout, Dixon, Overall and R. G. Vick. Our final skirmish this year was with the Class of ' 30, who thought because ' 31 ' s numeral had been on the tank last year, theirs was entitled to be there this year their junior year. This latent ambition was a serious breach of custom and tradition, so the infuri- ated warriors of ' 31 swept the ' 30 ' s from their star, and hitched their beloved ' 31 to it. Our second battle came early in the year. Our attitude toward the ' 32 ' s was naturally lenient, and we were exceedingly humane toward the green, dumb freshmen. We reserved, however, such rights as were deemed necessary in the continuity of custom and tradition. Then the Student Council, seeing that we were exceed- ingly lenient toward freshmen, attempted to sever our rights author- ized by custom. Then the scouts rushed into the new field, surveyed the terrain, noted the enemy posts, and led the attack of the furious ' 31 warriors. The battle resulted in the recognition of our tradi- tional rights. And so, on through the year we met challenges, fought our battles, played the game, and struggled to meet the ends of justice. We have left behind a few wounded warriors and broken links, but by leaving them behind, we have strengthened our chain and are now ready to enter the third stage of the great war. E. C.

All day long, while Old Sol moved steadily through the sky, new men were invading the campus of State College. We came for the purpose of who knows what? Well, we came all the same, six hundred and fifty of us. We were met by the kind Y. M. C. A. men who were distinguished by their red arm bands. These men were of great help to us in finding our rooms and helping carry our trunks. After having enjoyed our first meal in the Bull Hall, we were warmly greeted by Dean Cloyd in the college auditorium. Dean Cloyd gave us in- structions in regard to registration, which took place the following day. When this meeting was over, the Y. M. C. A., thinking we might get homesick that night, served refreshments to us. This was thoroughly enjoyed by all the new men, and also served to give the new men a good impression of that organ- ization. The first night in the dormitories is one that will be long remembered by all college students. We went quietly to our rooms and locked our doors, ex- pecting to be pulled out of bed any moment. We had heard of what cruel things sophomores were; therefore, we did not know whether we would be alive in the morning or not. After all, they were not quite as bad as we ex- pected, although we did get bad treatment. After registration was finished on September 14, 1928, we were given pretty red caps with a white F on the front. We were all very proud of our caps. They were different from the ones which had been used at State College the years before. Oh boy, we were happy fellows. We thought we were real college men; we seemed to be the rulers of the rulers of the campus. By the time we were beginning to feel our importance on State College campus, the tide changed. Here came the dark part of our life; the sophs were coming in. They made us feel smaller than we ever had felt before in our lives. They had us carrying trunks, giving them matches, reciting the freshman rules, singing, cut- ting the buck, and many other things which we had never done before. One more word in regard to carrying trunks; this was a pain as most of us expressed it. The campus was the muddiest place we had ever seen, and carrying trunks through the rain and mud, and then to the third floor of South or Seventh, was no fun at all. Days passed by very slowly. You could hear boys say: I had rather be at home than any place I know of. We had to give up all hopes of being campus rulers. It certainly did seem hard on us to be put on such a low level, instead of being the honored high school seniors we were one year before. It is a very great change, but such is life. Page One Hundred Ninety-seven AGROM ECK At the call of football, one hundred and fifty freshmen responded. Frank Gorham was elected captain of the team. Although we had a little hard luck, we are very proud of our freshman team, and you may watch the varsity next year and see some of the star players members of the class of ' 32. After each victory of the varsity football team, the freshmen and a few upperclassmen would parade through Raleigh and visit St. Marys and Peace. While on the parades, we would sing State College songs and give some of our favorite yells. By so doing we let the people know that we were strong behind the Wolf pack. We always received a very warm welcome at St. Marys and Peace on these occasions. The class of ' 32 is known for its fine school spirit and reliability to attend pep meetings. When we had our first class meeting, the president of the student body presided and we elected C. C. Lane, president. Another meeting was held a week later and the class elected the following officers: J. H. Walton, Jr., vice- president; W. C. Marley, secretary-treasurer; J. A. Culbertson, poet, and E. M. Overton, Jr., historian. A new style was started at State College this year. At various times dur- ing the year, there could be seen a freshman going about the campus wearing a dress. This was a sentence imposed upon the freshmen by the Court of Cus- toms, for breaking certain rules. The wearing of the dress is a substitute for the brutal gauntlet which had been the punishment for freshmen before this year. The sophomores say they have been easy on us. Well, if they have, I certainly would hate to see a hard-boiled sophomore class. The year has been very disagreeable at times, but after all of these troubles, I think the freshman year must be the best year of college life. We are now looking forward to finishing our examinations and going home. We are also looking forward to coming back and being sophomores and doing our part in making N. C. State a greater State College. ELBERT M. OVERTON, JR., ' 32.

FOOTBALL 1928 BOB WARREN Captain Page Two Hundred Twenty-seven AGROM E.CK Gus TEBELL Head Coach BUTCH SLAUGHTER Line Coach Doc. SERMON Trainer, Asst. Coach Review of the Football Season, 1928 Won four, lost five and tied one, was the result in bare figures of the work of the 1928 North Carolina State College Wolfpack football varsity. Ill fortune trailed the varsity in three of the contests lost. Something close to a miracle enabled the University of North Carolina to tie State ' s six-point lead with a pass, the last play of the game. Alibis, however, are not offered here. State ' s linesmen were among the South ' s best. The backs- included superior ball carriers. Jack McDowall, State ' s brilliant 1927 halfback, and Don Childress. 1927 end, were greatly missed. New blood filled the vacancies and came through admirably. STATE 57: ELON RlDDICK FIELD, SEPTEMBER 28 The Wolfpack, following a month of strenuous early training in warm weather, came through with its usual one-sided score against the Christians. Two sets of backfields ran at will against the scrapping opposition. Reserve linesmen, getting their chance in the opening Page Two Hundred Twenty CHARLIE HIBBARD FRED VAUGHAN 196 Ibs.

The total score was the largest collected by a Wolfpack since the halcyon days of 1920. The 1928 machine looked good against the ever-fighting Christian eleven. STATE 6; WASHINGTON AND LEE 3 8 LEXINGTON, OCTOBER 6 Inclement weather brought about much fumbling and falling to mar the first conference game for the Wolfpack, the Generals getting enough breaks to win several contests and State suffering ill luck often. Fumbles gave Washington and Lee two touchdowns in less than eight minutes of play. Adams. State quarter, suffered a severe hip injury and had to give way to a new signal caller. Melton and Warren worked well in the backfield. Captain Bob passing to Goodwin for State ' s lone counter. Later, State marched 50 yards, but fumbled and an oppos- ing end took the ball 75 yards for a touchdown. STATE 0; CLEMSON 7 FLORENCE, S. C, OCTOBER 12 Stopping the fast John Justis no less than 20 times in a nip and tuck battle at the Pee Dee Fair, State was assured of nothing less than a tie with the rejuvenated Clemson Tigers, but Justis broke away for 35 yards in the last few minutes of play for the lone touchdown.

Fred Vaughan ' s play started the ball rolling for All-Southern honors he was to gain at the end of the season. Bob Warren played brilliantly, despite a sore side. STATE 37; WAKE FOREST RIDDICK FIELD, OCTOBER 18 Playing the Deacons on the old State fair week date. State rallied strong on home ground to administer a stinging defeat to Wake Forest. State backs ran wild while their linesmen held like Trojans. Adams, Warren, Melton, in fact all of the ' Pack, put in fine work. Vaughan continued his terrific play at guard. Wake Forest threatened but once when the Baptist unloosed passes at the last. STATE 7; FLORIDA 14 JACKSONVILLE. OCTOBER 27 One little taste of luck would have given State a victory, if not a tie with the country ' s leading scorers. But State ' s ends failed to function. ' Gator backs running 70 yards twice for scores. Bill Metts broke up a Florida punt and Jordan got the ball for State ' s score. Bob War- ren passed frequently throughout the last period but no mate was present on the receiving end. State dropped passes after getting clear for goal and getting their hands all over the ball. The score was the closest Florida experienced. Vaughan ' s work added to his All-Southern standing. Page Two Hundred Thirty AGROM.ECK. FRED CRUM 142 Ibs. Halfback JAKIE JORDAN 170 Ibs.

State pushed the University team all over the field with a six-point lead until the last minute of play. Late in the second quarter, State ' s line outcharged the Tar Heels and Jordan broke up Farris ' punt and gained the ball for touchdown. Carolina, desperate in the last two minutes of play, opened up with passes. Jackson got 30 yards around end. On the very last play, Gray took a long pass for touchdown. State ruined the extra point try. Without discrediting Carolina ' s play, one streak of luck would have given State a victory. STATE 14; DAVIDSON 7 GREENSBORO, NOVEMBER 10 The Wildcats again reached traditional fighting spirit and gave State a lesson in real foot- ball playing, but the brilliant Bob Warren reached top form to score two touchdowns, one after a 50-yard run. George Silver, State ' s substitute end, put in a full day, playing alert at all times. Davidson scored early when McConnell intercepted a pass and raced almost to goal. This pepped up the Wildcats and they scrapped their way to their lone score. Page Two Hundred Thirty-one MAURICE JOHNSON 155 Ibs. Quarterback BASIL MELTON 165 Ibs. Halfback (. ' KINK OUTEN 198 ibs. Fullback STATE 12; DUKE 14 RlDDICK FIELD, NOVEMBER 17 History reversed and Duke ' s extra points counted victory, as did State ' s in 1927. The game went off as a Wolfpack-Blue Devil exhibition usually does, each scoring unexpectedly. State ends fumbled passes, one at the goal and another within the five-yard line. Duke ' s win- ning touchdown, with State leading 12 to 7, will be disputed whenever State followers talk football. State coaches marked one official off their list for 1929 games when it was evident to them that Duke failed to earn the deciding goal. Bob Warren ' s work on the defense was great. Vaughan failed to play on account of a sprained ankle. STATE 0; MICHIGAN STATE 7 LANSING, MICH., NOVEMBER 24 North Carolina State traveled straight through to the snow-swept lanes of Michigan to return the Spartans ' 1927 visit to Riddick Field, and. amidst a snow blizzard, lost by a lone score. The Wolfpack ends and backs failed repeatedly to hold on to passes while in enemy territory. The Spartans scored after a steady drive off tackles. Goodwin, Floyd and Warren played well for the ' Pack. Page Two Hundred Thirty-two SPARKY ADAMS 162 Ibs. Quarterback A. L. VANN 180 Ibs. Guard NORRIS JEFFREY 155 Ibs. Fullback STATE 18; SOUTH CAROLINA 7 RlDDICK FIELD, NOVEMBER 29 Thanksgiving found State, led by Bob Warren, in her own, and South Carolina went down in smashing defeat by a score unexpected by the ' Pack ' s ardent supporters. Without student body and band to urge them on, State ' s eleven turned back the Gamecocks who had trounced Chicago earlier in the season. Their running attack was checked completely. Warren scored all three touchdowns and had another in view as the game ended. South Carolina used passes to slip her score over. The work of Mack Stout, substitute guard, was outstanding, especially on the defense when he backed the line. Vaughan, Metts, Floyd, Goodwin, Outen, Ford, Mayfield and Crum wound up noble careers on State ' s gridiron. Page Two Hundred Thirty-three AGROM ECK Freshman Football As a team the freshmen weren ' t so hot. They went through the season without winning a game. Several of the scores were close, but others were decisive defeats. But the team was better than the scores indicate. State has some promis- ing material from the freshman squad. Gorham, Dellinger and Rose should make Gus Tebell ' s heart beat with glee. These boys were the mainstays of the backfield and as freshman backfields go, this was a good one. But as the old adage goes, it takes eleven good men working together to win a football game. Somehow or another our boys just couldn ' t get going. In the Wake Forest game we lost by one point. To lose a game in that fashion is not bad for anybody. In fact, the frosh were due to win as far as first downs are concerned. Against Carolina, who by the way had one of the best freshman aggregations in the State, we were able to score two touchdowns. This was something but few of the other teams were able to do. The primary purpose of freshman football is to season the boys for varsity wear and tear. Under Coach Drennon they got plenty of instructions as to varsity methods. That is why we think the varsity should expect some good material. SCORES State 6 State 6 State 7 State 6 State . . 12 V. M. 1 14 Wake Forest 7 Davidson -13 Duke 27 U. N.

Following in the steps of the football team, the baseball team won a State Championship. There is an inside story, one that cannot be revealed through the scores, to be told of this squad. Mr. Charlie Doak has for many years been head baseball coach at State. He has won championships in the past. They are nothing new or exciting to him. Chick knew he had a good team, but the optimist that he is he didn ' t predict a state championship. There were twenty men on the squad. All of them to a man were fighters, and each is due a song of praise; but in choosing the team ' s most valuable player one would be forced to pick Mr. Charlie. Coach Doak and his team were the dark horses of North Carolina Collegiate Baseball. Page Two Hundred Thirty-six GROM ECK. SAMMY SHORE Pitcher CHARLIE EATMON Catcher JOHN KIDD Pitcher Outfielder Captained by the fence-racking Outen, the team got off to a slow start. Lenoir Rhyne came down from the mountains and made the boys feel like anything but baseball players. This first game defeat was enough to dishearten any squad. But there is where Mr. Charlie stepped to the bat with a bit of pinch hitting. He made the boys forget it. After breaking even on a road swing through Virginia, the team returned to the state to whip Wake Forest in the first of three games. Against the Deacons State won two and lost one. In eight contests played with Big Five nines State lost only one game. The entire season ' s record was not quite so impressive, but it was good as far as baseball averages go. Chink Outen, Woodworth, and Eatmon were the big guns for State. Outen supplied the long distance clouting of the State, while Woodworth and Eatmon could be depended on in a pinch. These three players supplied the offensive for the team. Outen, of course, was ex- pected to hit; but Woodworth and Eatmon, playing their first year varsity baseball, came through in sensational fashion. To the list of batters must be supplied the names of Wester. Seldom getting into a game, this youth pulled several games out of the fire with his pinch hit- Page Two Hundred Thirty-seven JIMMY MAYFIELD ui fielder CHARLIE SEAL Third Base SAMMY ROWE Pitcher ting. To be sure the other boys could hit. No team can win a championship with only a trio of dependable batters. On the defense the boys were about the best in the state. Pivoting around Woodworth and Outen the infield was fast and dependable. Woodworth to Outen to McDowall was a frequent play.. The outfield was not so flashy nor so dependable as the infield, but it was capable. From the players ' standpoint, loo much credit cannot be given Charlie Eatmon, the best backstop State has had in years. The greatest weakness and the biggest surprise was the pitching staff. So far as could be determined State had only one pitcher Allgood. This slow-ball artist came through in great fashion. Without him State ' s pitching staff would have been in bad shape. Of course, Allgood got some good relief from other members of the mound, but upon his none too large shoulders, fell the great bulk of the team ' s mound duty. How the pitching staff held up under the strain is somewhat of a puzzle. But to him whom credit is most due: Mr. Charlie Doak, our silent, patient, and efficient coach, was the driving power behind State ' s surprise team. Paqe Two Hundred Thirty-eight AGROM ECK. J. E.

TRACK 1928 BRUCE GORHAM Captain THE SQUAD Ttfo Hundred Forty-one SERMON, Coach RAPER, Manager Track, 1928 MORRIS, Manager All considered the track team of 1928 was the best turned out by State in several years. Scores do not carry the weight in track that they do in other sports. It is possible to not win a meet and yet have a good team. Last year State won the majority of their meets and finished second in the State Meet. In field events State was unusually strong. Jack McDowall and Hank Young were the big berthas for the team. The ability of these men to participate in more than one event was responsible in no small way for some of the impressive scores. Captain Gorham could also be depended upon to deliver the goods. The outstanding meet of the year was the triple meet in which Clemson. V. P. I., and State took part. At this time Doc ' s boys were pitted against some of the best track material in Virginia and South Carolina. State came out second in the meet. Page Two Hundred Forty-two AGROM ECK. KING JORDAN PATTERSON McDowall set a Southern Conference record when he jumped 6 feet 1 J4 inches. This record is likely to stand for some time in the state.

Rated near the bottom of the list of 1 6 teams in view of six wins and five losses before (he tournament, Tebell ' s cagers upset the upsctters to win over Tennessee. Clemson, Mississippi and Duke. Clemson had put the great Georgia Tech stars out of the race and Mississippi, de- fending champions, had romped away with a decisive victory over Washington and Lee. Duke eliminated Georgia and Carolina in rapid-fire fashion. Page Two Hundred Forty-six AGROM ECK. ATKINSON Forward BRAKE Guard Backed by the consistent work of State ' s guards. Bob Warren and Morris Johnson, both of whom made All-Southern selections. Frank Goodwin and Larry Haar shared honors in the tournament. Goodwin, center, was high scorer of the tournament, while Haar ' s great work against Mississippi assured State of a final place in the fight for the title against Duke. State played what might be termed slow ball, keeping the leather as long as possible. This was thoroughly demonstrated against Duke, the Blue Devils using a flashy speed, found State ' s slow, consistent attack a problem. The Wolfpack guards kept the ball well in hand as the opposition ran itself down on the offensive. Taking short shots at the basket whenever possible, the Tebell men weaved in and out of the Duke defense before trying for a shot. John- son, Haar and Young fed the ball usually to Goodwin who stayed under the basket after the Page Two Hundred Forty-seven cV AGROMECK. tipoff. When forced to shoot from near mid-court, Goodwin, Haar and Johnson averaged points consistently more than Duke ' s main threats. Presenting a combination of great potentiality. State College ' s 1929 basketball varsity blazed through the Big Five and Southern Conference circles with flashes of color, one night bumping off opposition with vengeance only to turn around later to lose to the same quintets. Tebell ' s cagers won eleven games and lost six contests before entering the conference tournament at Atlanta in March. Frank Goodwin led the attack and chalked up enough points for first scoring honors in intrastate circles and rated among the leaders in the southern bracket. The lanky center was aided consistently by four other lettermcn: Captain Hank Young and Larry Haar, forwards, and Bob Warren and M. Johnson, guards. Gus Wright returned to the Wolfpack fold in time to play a guard near the end of the season and to enter the tournament. Several less experienced cagers, Mason, Taylor, Brake, Owens, Boyette, Gammon and Atkinson contributed their share. Using Meanwell ' s Wisconsin short passing system. State defeated Wake Forest twice; Duke and Davidson once each, and lost two to Carolina in the Big Five competition. Furman, Lenoir Rhyne, Virginia, Florida and V. M.

The Norris Athletic Trophy The Norris Athletic Trophy, a massive silver loving cup standing twenty-four inches high, is awarded annually to the best all-round athlete at N. C. State by Norris, Inc., of Atlanta, Ga., through its president, Frank E. Lowenstein, a State College alumnus. The winning of this cup is the greatest honor that can come to a State College athlete. Possession of this trophy depends not only upon outstanding athletic ability, but on general scholastic lines as well. This is the first time any student has won this cup for the second time; but Jack Mc- Dowall is no doubt the greatest athlete N. C. State has ever had. For four years he has played on State College teams and has made a letter in the four major sports. He has been chosen on many All-State and All Southern teams. So it seems quite proper for such an outstanding athlete to receive this honor. JACK MCDOWALL 1926-1927 and 1927-1928 Winner of Trophy for Second Time Page Two Hundred Fifty -three AGROM ECK FRANK THOMP SON GYMNASIUM The Department of Physical Education J. F. Miller, the Director of this department since its organization in 1924, is familiar with all phases of a physical education program. He is a college man who later specialized at the Springfield (Mass.) College of Physical Education. He was an all around athlete for five years in college who reached his athletic climax by making an envi- able five-year record as Head Coach at the University of Missouri. In addition to his broad athletic experience, he has a record of twelve years ' dealing with the administrative duties of a departmental program reaching the mass. The Department of Physical Education was established at N. C. State College for two purposes. First, it was thought necessary as an educational institution, that op- portunity should be provided for her students to get recre- ation and regular exercise to insure good health, morale and more efficient school work. Such a program would reach the big majority of the student body and strike a balance to the students ' daily routine and confine their excess energies to something wholesome and supervised. Second, as a state institution, she should provide professional courses to train students to go out into North Carolina and organize and supervise programs of physical edu- cation in the schools of the state. Every year the service rendered by this department merits and vindicates its establishment by the Board of Trustees of the college. Not only does it come into close contact with the health, physical exercise and recreation of the students but it has carried its influence out into the schools of the state. It is cooperating with all agencies that are seeking to make better citizens for North Carolina physically, mentally and socially. Its future can only be measured by the demand made for its services by the public school systems of the state. Page Two Hundred Fifty-four J. F. MILLER, Director AGROM ECK. A GYMNASIUM CLASS The Physical Education Program The program of work done in this department consists of the required courses for all freshmen and sophomores, the professional courses for upperclassmen, the intramural athletic program and the extension program with the high schools of the state. REQUIRED COURSES Every student entering college is required to take a physical examination to ascertain his fitness to take military, the regular class work in physical training and athletic competition. This department is especially interested in those students who do not measure up to the normal. Advice is given to them pertaining to the defects found and many of the defects are corrected at the gymnasium without the student going to the college infirmary or to his family physician. All freshmen in regular classes are held to a strict formal program of work consisting of marching, calisthenics drill, apparatus work tapered off with group games and relays for the hygienic value. All freshmen are required to meet certain requirements in swimming. Posture and coordination are stressed throughout. The sophomores are given opportunity to play and receive instruction in sports as soccer and tag football, basketball and volleyball, track and playground baseball. Special instruction is given them in golf, boxing and tennis. It is hoped that they will acquire an interest and enthusiasm in some sport which they can play after they go out of college into the big game of life. The high spots of this program is reached in the fall with the annual freshman cross country run, participated in by about 500 freshmen, in the winter term by the annual physical training demonstration in which about 400 freshmen and sophomores demonstrate the variety of work that is given the required classes and in the spring term with a track meet between all classes, which number about 1,000 students. Page Two Hundred Fifty-five AGROM ECK. THETA KAPPA Nu COMPANY F TH DORMITORY Tag Football Champions INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS Opportunity has been given students on athletic squads to develop physical vigor, courage, self-control, initiative and cooperation for a long time. Mental development does not always produce the highest type of manhood. Recognizing the benefits that come to the man on the varsity squad, this department is making opportunity for students not on athletic squads to enter into wholesome competition, develop the team work and the social contact that is so urgent in business and professional life. The interest shown in these leagues is only limited by the space, time and equipment of the department. Last year close to 1,000 boys competed in the class, fraternity, dormitory and military soccer and tag football, basketball, volleyball, swimming, playground baseball, track and tennis. The same program of sports this year has proven even more successful and the military boxing tournament is expected to be the climax of the year ' s intramural program. THE PROFESSIONAL COURSES Courses in the theory and practice of football, basketball, baseball and track and field coaching are given by the head coach of each sport. The theory and practice of the different phases of a physical training and recreation program is given as well as the history and organ- ization of physical education. Courses in the physical examination, the training and condition- ing and first aid is given in conjunction with other courses. Each year 100 prospective teachers have been enrolled in these courses including repetition. It is not enough that a man play on a varsity team to qualify him to be qualified as a coach. A monogram does not prepare a student to go out and organize and supervise a physical train- ing and recreation program. Many students who do not have the necessary expertness to make the varsity, make a better coach and teacher than the letter-man. These courses are offered our athletes and all other students interested in order that they may study physical education from the coaches and teachers ' standpoint and not alone from the players ' viewpoint. A demand has already been created for State College men who have minored in this department, because they have a more all-around perspective and training in physical education which includes physical training, recreation and athletics. Page Two Hundred Fifty-six AGROM ECK. RALEIGH CLASS A Winner of High School Basketball Tournament Extension Program of Physical Education North Carolina docs not have a State Supervisor of Physical Education to advise and work with the schools of the state. This department is seeking to be of service in this capacity to the high schools, especially the smaller rural consolidated high school. Mr. Miller has visited 28 of these schools this year, and every one of these schools now has a regular physical training and recreation period which reaches every boy and girl in the school. These schools are anxious to include physical education as a part of their training of every student enrolled. All they need is to be shown that they can do it without the gymnasium and the specially trained teacher. The big out-of-doors is utilized and the regular teachers in the school assisted by the larger, more alert boys and girls supervise the period of exercise. The climax to the extension work with the high schools is the annual high school basket- ball tournament. This tournament has been unusual in its success. The high schools and coaches have shown the keenest cooperation and their sportsmanship has been an example that could be held up to the state as a pattern. The college students have got behind this with an enthusiasm that speaks more than a mere doing from a sense of duty to the college. They seem to get a thrill and a keen sense of satisfaction in being able to act as a host to these younger boys of the state and seek to outdo the other fellow in making the visitor have a good time and want to come back to State College. Last year 800 high school basketball players from every section of the state played 68 games before capacity crowds. It was unique that the three class winners were only a short distance apart. Raleigh, Dunn and Garner were on top after a three- day whirl of high school boys and state college students. This year points to that same suc- cessful tournament as over 120 schools have already applied for admission with the tourney nearly a month away.

Treasurer During the eight years that Student Government has prevailed at State College, there has been a constant im- provement in the conduct, morale, and student relationships of this institution. Student Government differs from all other forms of government in that it seeks to appeal to those higher quali- ties of manhood and womanhood and to develop and carry forward those qualities to a still higher plane. There are no police or proctors, hut every student acts the part of an honorable gentleman, whose character shall not he blemished. Through this assumption on the part of the student body of their own conduct, we have a stronger faculty and a more self-reliant student body than ever before. The success of Student Government at N. C. State College has caused the administration and students to appreciate the only efficient form of democratic college government. Student Government has and will continue to play a very important role in the great advancement and success of this institution and commonwealth by producing honorable and self-reliant citizens. W.

PRICE Director of Music State College is rapidly taking the lead musically, due mostly to the good spirit prevailing on the campus concerning music and the unceasing efforts of Major P. W. (Daddy) Price, Director of Music. There are four large groups of musicians on the campus. The Band, the Orchestra, the Glee Club, and the Quartette. There are nearly fifty men in the Band, twenty in the Orchestra, over forty in the Glee Club, and four in the Quartette. The Band is the most outstanding organization of the four. It is known all over the South and is rated as one of the best in that district. The Band made several trips last year to different state institutions, girls ' colleges, and is used by the State for patriotic celebrations. It plays for most all the athletic contests played in Raleigh and even makes trips out of town to play. There are three different bands: the Concert Band, the College Band, and the R. O. T. C. Band. The Band was originally here as a military band. The Concert Band contains the pick of the musicians of the whole band and plays high-class standard music, such as few college bands attempt. The Orchestra and the Glee Club are one and inseparable, almost. They make all their trips together. The one of them would not satisfy a crowd so Major Price takes both along and the people are well pleased. There is an overlapping in the membership of the two organ- izations and in that way a better program can be given because more people can be taken along. These two organizations travel over the state from east to west giving concerts, and whenever they make their appearance the people just flock out to hear them. The Quartette was formerly known as the foolish four and is very popular in and around Raleigh. They sing at banquets, luncheons, and for other gatherings. The greatest thing about the members of the musical organizations is their willingness to function at all times, said Major Price. Daddy Price is one of the best known men on the campus. He always walks (or rides) around with a smile on his face and is always ready to take time out to discuss matters with any one. Daddy came to State College ten years ago and has been here ever since. I hope I can be here twenty years more, said Major Price. He is one of the best known directors in the United States. He is director of the Sudan Temple Shrine Band and has supervision over the Drum Corps and the Chanters. He is past president of the Shrine Musical Organization of North America, president of the North Caro- lina Intercollegiate Glee Club Association, and vice-president of the Southern Intercollegiate Glee Club Association.

International Collegiate Crops Team ' The State College Crops Team won first honors in the Great International Collegiate Crops Contest, held in Chicago, December, 1928. These boys not only upheld the coveted reputation of preceding crops teams at State, but established several records never before attained by any team or individual. Our boys not only won great distinction for themselves, but brought fame and honor to their College and to their State. Students who successfully pass this supreme test have the rare privilege of experiencing that which only a few can enjoy. Victors in an international contest such as this should have no lack of courage or confidence when the great problems of life are to be solved. Page Ta o Hundred Ninety AGROM ECK.

The award is based on four qualities of citizenship in the college community: Scholarship, student leadership, athletics, and public speaking. These four qualifications are certified to by the college registrar, the Student Council, the Faculty Athletic Committee and a committee composed of the ranking junior officers in all colleges societies in which public speaking is practiced. The name of the winner of this medal is announced each year by the President of the col- lege at the commencement exercises.

EVANS The Wataugan Page Three Hundred Eleven R. P. SHAPARD Editor T. A. GRANT Business Manager A college annual is similar to any other publication it takes brains and hard work to put it over. An annual does combine the principles of business ability and artistic temperament as does no other student publication. It does not only take an editor with unusual abilities to arrange and plan the book, but it takes a business manager to see that funds are secured to carry out the editor ' s ambitions. As editor of the 1929 AGROMECK, Bob Shapard has given to the students what he believes to be the best annual ever published at State College. Bob ' s organizing abilities has made it possible to get together a competent staff that has contributed much toward the success of the book. On the other hand is Alex Grant with his Scotch instincts toward money. Alex has worked and fumed over contracts, begged for money, and what not else to make possible this giant undertaking. And a good job has he done. On any annual you find the two forces of business and editorship working toward the same end. On this particular job Grant and Shapard have done their work well.

STEPHENSON Business Manager The average student and citizen of today think of the college newspaper as a joke paper more or less. Those who do not know the function of a good college newspaper think of it as a matter of stories of big pants and wrecklcss journalism. The Technician does not claim to be a superior college paper but in the class with the many college papers who give to their school concise, condensed, clean copy, stating the facts as they really are and giving the students what they want and what they deserve, journalistically speaking. The editor of the 1928- ' 29 Technician hails from Saundersville (Elizabeth City). There ' s something different in his style of stories. Censorship where censorship was due; praise where praise was due; condemnation where condemnation was due. With a very small staff and little cooperation, the editor of The Technician has maintained the standard set by his predecessors. College news; state news; national news GOOD NEWS.

CUNNINGHAM Coach The past year has seen the intercollegiate competition of North Carolina State College in debate and oratory well established on a high plane of excellence. It is no longer uncertain as to whether it will be possible to maintain this form cf extra-curricular activity with the desired degree of success. On the contrary, it can be said that insofar as forensics are concerned North Carolina State College is the outstanding technical school of the South and is among the first three or four throughout the nation. If public interest were as keen in this type of inter- collegiate competition as it is in athletics, N. C. State would occupy a position as prominent in the public mind as is that of Georgia Tech. Moreover, the Forensic Council of the college has at last arrived at a fairly definite policy with respect to the type of opponents to be sought in forensic competition. Some contests in debate will be scheduled with technical schools and teachers ' colleges in adjoining states, and cer- tain of the first-class smaller schools will be met. But our most important opponents will be the outstanding state universities, and our record against these institutions thus far indicate that we may reasonably expect to hold our own in this class no small achievement for a technical school. In order to carry out its policy more successfully, the Forensic Council has joined the Dixie Debating League, an organization composed of the leading forensic colleges and universities of the South. Membership in this league insures a heavy schedule of competition with the most desirable type of opponents. Last season, the State College debate teams met for the first time the teams of state uni- versities in decision contests. Our opponents in the first contest were speakers from the Uni- versity of Alabama, one of them a graduate student. But the excellent work of Hubert H. Burroughs in rebuttal won for State a two-to-one decision of the judges. The debate was held in Asheville in the auditorium of the Asheville Normal School before an audience of over six hundred. Burroughs, with A. Laurence Aydlett as his colleague, also won over the Virginia State Teachers ' College of Farmville. but lost a two-to-one decision to Rutgers University, the State University of New Jersey. The Northerners were seniors in law school, each one with a record of competition in more than a score of intercollegiate contests. Page Three Hundred Sev nte r AGROM ECK H. H. BURROUGHS COLLEGE DEBATERS, 1928 A. L. AYDLETT E. w. BUCHANAN The other regular team, composed of Roy R. Pearson and Edgar W. Buchanan, defeated Virginia Polytechnic Institute and the Virginia State Teachers ' College, but lost a close contest to the Georgia State College of Agriculture. The outstanding achievement in debate was the Oxford style contest with Wake Forest College with Roy R. Pearson and Horace J. Kennedy as the State speakers. This debate was published in the University Debaters ' Annual and was the third N. C. State debate to be thus honored during the past four years. Only two other American institutions, both of them large universities, have had so many debates published during this period of time. When it is re- membered that only nine or ten debates are selected each year for this honor, the full significance of our achievement will be realized. In oratory, Henry H. Rogers represented the college in the State Peace Oratorical Contest, placing third in a field of nine, and M. C. Finch placed third in the State contest on the Constitution. For the coming season, the forensic schedule has been made more difficult and more ex- tensive than ever before. To date it includes contests with the University of Florida, Wake Forest College, Davidson College, Emory University, Mercer University, Birmingham-Southern College, the University of Alabama, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Virginia State Teachers ' College of Farmville, Georgia State College of Agriculture, and Rutgers University. In oratory, the school will compete in the Pi Kappa Delta province contest, in the State Peace Contest, in the North Carolina Contest on the Constitution, and possibly in the Inter-Racial Relations Contest. One oratorical contest has already been held the American Legion Citizenship Contest. In this event, Edgar W. Buchanan, representing State College, won third prize. Eleven insti- tutions were represented in the contest.

No less than a thousand of the South ' s finest young girls and boys enjoyed the terpsichorean art as a climax to the school year. These dances have the reputation of being the best dances in the State during the year. The first evening dance, May 31st, was led by Mr. Clarence Ridenhour of Concord, and Miss Virginia Reed of Concord. The next evening dance, June 1st, was led by Mr. Hubbard Sullivan of Asheville, with Miss Jane Lynch of New York City. The last dance of the set was led by Mr. Joseph Cobb of Lancaster, with Miss Dorothy O ' Donnell of Raleigh, the evening of June 3rd. Music was furnished by Vic Meyer and his orchestra of Atlanta, Ga. This orchestra is one of the most popular in the South, especially for college dances. Page Three Hundred Eighty-one AGROM ECK. ARM WARMING Three Hundred Eighty-two Junior Order of Saints Dance The Junior Order of Saints gave one of the most enjoyable dances of the social calendar. A conservative number of young persons were in attendance. This dance is of a necessity a little more exclusive than most dances, the fresh- men not being allowed to attend. The figure was led by Mr. K. C. Loughlin of Wilmington, with Miss Margaret McRae of Charlotte. Assisting them was Mr. James Griffin of Greensboro, with Miss Dorothy Kluttz of Greensboro. At the conclusion of the figure the young men pinned a red rose, the flower of the order, on their partners. Music for this dance was furnished by Jelly Leftwich and his Orchestra of Duke University. After the dance the members of the order attended a midnight supper at the Mere Mont Tea Shoppe. Page Three Hundred Eighty-three AGROM ECK. Page Three Hundred Eighty-four AGROM ECK. Page Three Hundred Eighty-five Commencement Marshals Page Three Hundred Eighty-six FEATURES VOL. I Angry Whak SEC. I FOREWORD I must congratulate you who have read this far. Now here ' s a tip. If you have any sense of humor, ingrow- ing toenails, or tender feelings, stop. But nobody ever listens to a student council man, a professor, or an editor. However, let ' s get this straight from the very start. If you don ' t like the contents of this section, we are sorry. Just send your annual to President Hoover and he will refund you your money, because he wants everybody to get their money ' s worth. Now, if by any chance you get your feel- ings hurt, we are sorry, too. Write to the editor, and he ' ll apologize perhaps. You will be able to get in touch with him by writing Dix Hill. Now if you think this section could be improved upon, don ' t get stuck up. We knew that long ago. Afar DEDIC AT ION To decide to whom this should be dedicated was quite a job as there are so many individuals to whom the editor might have dedicated this hee-haw shop. So to trick them we are going to dedi- cate it to the Monogram Club just like that, as if you would say $.25 Club, for the club is not worth two bits. The members would rather feed their faces than to pay their dues. They cried Give us eats or give us debt, and what ' s more, we gave them the horse laugh. Page Three Hundred Eighty-nine ANGRY WHAK MINUTES OF THE SIGMA ALPHA KAPPA PI FRATERNITY BROTHER GRAND MISFIT: Brother Doc count the members present. Only sixty-four absent? Brother Eminent Loom meet our newest pledge. BRO. HUTCHINSON: Let us pray. BRO. HlBBARD: Why? BRO. HUTCHINSON: Brother Hibbard, who ' s running this chapter? BRO. HlBBARD: I don ' t know, but it ' s making dam ' slow time. BRO. CRUM: The furniture needs fix- ing. Who volunteers to raise the money? (Perfect silence.) I said who would volun- teer to raise the money? (Pluperfect silence.) Oh, hell! ENTHUSIASTIC BROTHER: We must be more active. BROTHER IN THE FOG: We have the athletics sewed up: what more do you want? BRO. GOODWIN: Brother Janitor, have you swiped those records from the Alpha Kappas yet? Aha, Brother Janitor, two bits fine fer neglect of duty. BRO. DISORDER: We have been accused of politicking. BRO. OUTEN: Honi Soit Qui Mai y Pense ' . ' BRO. ALLGOOD: Brother Outen, you are fined two bits for profanity. BRO. WHITE: Are there any proposals for membership? BROTHER (disgusted) : Christopher Co- lumbus could not pass this chapter. BRO. YOUNG: The Sigma Kappa ' s told me he was a member of their lodge. BRO. BYERS: I move that we buy ten gallons for the Ep Sig dance. BROTHERS (in unison) : Motion passed. BRO. SHAPARD: The scholastic average of this chapter must be raised. BRO. ADVISOR: My God, my good men, it is deplorable. Not the slightest scholastic attitude. All our fraternity mates should make Phi Kappa Phi. Meeting breaks up with prayers for the other chapters on the campus. A very fat man was seated in the street car taking up half the room of the very thin man next to him. I think the street car people ought to charge by weight. exclaimed the thin man, petulantly. Indeed, replied the portly one. Then in that case they wouldn ' t stop to pick you up. What makes you think he loves you? The way he looks at me when I ' m not looking. A KISS A kiss is a peculiar proposition: Of no use to one, Yet absolute bliss to two. The small boy gets it for nothing, The young man has to steal it, The old man has to buy it: The lover ' s privilege, The babys right, The hypocrite ' s mask, and. The married man ' s duty. To a married woman, hope: To a young girl, faith, and To an old maid, charity. ONE SMART SOPH: There is one word in the English language that ' s always pro- nounced wrong. FRESH: What word is that? O. S. S.: Why. wrong, of course! Automobiles are like people. They smoke, they skid, they break down, they knock and sometimes they stall. Page Three Hundred Ninety AGROM ECK. ANGRY WHAK --, W )X boys leave Summer- I am a Missourian, but I ' ve almost con- cluded that I ought to keep my mouth shut about it. The other day I met the sweetest young lady. She was in the lobby of a hotel, and, as usual, we started a conversation about the weather. The girl said: Do you know, I find it so much colder up here than I did back home. There I wore light garments all winter, but since coming here I have had to put on heavier clothing. I ' m from Georgia, you know. Is that so? I said politely, to show my interest. I ' m from Missouri. She showed me a look I ' ll never forget. THE COLLEGE GIRL The word tight has two meanings: both suggested by the word Scotch. ADVANTAGES IN SOLO DRIVING Listen. remarked the exasperated driver over his shoulder, Lindbergh got to Paris without any advice from the back seat. The quickness of the hand deceives the eye. That ' s why there are black eyes. I want to be naughty I want to be nice I don ' t mind the route, but I don ' t like the price, I want to do what other girls do: Tease ' em, cuddle ' em and coo. Blacken my eyebrows, powder my nose. Roll my cigarettes and roll my hose. Rouge my cheeks and pencil my lips. Carry a silver flask on my hip. Ride and swim, golf and skate. Take all the fences instead of the gate, Break all the records yes, all but one, And be good and true when the game ' s done, don ' t like pepper, but I do like spice, want to be naughty, but yet be nice, want the lights that brightly shine, want the men. I want the wine, want the fun without the price, want the thrill of a long dream kiss, I want the things that girls miss, But what I want most is a little advice On how to be naughty and yet be nice. Page Three Hundred Ninety-one ANGRY WHAK PrcUy Take o T- EDITORIALS We wish to nominate the 1929 AGRO- MECK staff as personal advisors to Mr. Hoover in his economy program. As con- servers of energy this group of geniuses was unparalleled. Two were said to have had nervous breakdowns trying to get out of work. The student body of this institution of higher learning may be divided into two classes: those who look like somebody and are not, and those that do not look like any- body and aren ' t, either. The editor ' s opinion of you: A bunch of nuts who can ' t appreciate any real liter- ature, and would not pay for it if you could. Your opinion of the editor: A literary imbecile who won ' t print anything but his own stuff, and expects you to put out for the privilege of reading it. You ' re both right. If you want a surprise, go to the Mop-Up and ask for a pencil. They won ' t have to order that. Young man, you should think of the future. But today ' s my girl ' s birthday, so I have to think of the present. Alas, my child, it is cold without. Without what, mother? Without a petticoat, my child, without a petticoat. MISTRESS: Did you see if the butcher had pig ' s feet? MAID: No, ma ' am; I couldn ' t, he had his boots on! SHE (sarcastically) : I wonder where the fellows who can dance are? HE (rubbing his feet) : Out there with the girls who can dance. I guess. Four-wheel brakes are a great invention. With the old-fashioned brake the pedestrian often escaped after being run over, but with four-wheel brakes you can stop right on top of him. FIRST GHOST: Where are you going? SECOND GHOST: On a haunting trip. Well, well. exclaimed the husband as he tackled his wife ' s meat pie. Where did you get this? I made it out of Mother ' s cook book, replied the young wife. It ' s a Ah, he broke in, I presume this leathery part is the binding. Jim Black says: She ' s only a printer ' s daughter, but I like her type. OPPONENT IN BOXING: What ' s your name, I want to notify your mother. THE OTHER OPPONENT: Oh. that ' s all right, she knows my name. Page Three Hundred Ninety-two AGROM ECK. ANGRY WHAK HE: I love you terribly. SHE: You certainly do. For many years young Eddie Rose Was rated a topnotcher; Then his stenog wore clocks on hose, Now Eddie ' s a clock-watcher. A Co-ed is as strong as her weakest moment. FRESHMAN: Gus has some new water- proof pants for the football men. CO-ED: Oh. the big babies. SHE: Sir! I ' ll have you understand I ' m a lady! HE: G ' wan. If you were you ' d haul off and knock me down. MARY: What ' s the difference between a girl and a horse? BOB: I don ' t know. MARY: ' I ' ll bet you have some great dates. A Raleigh epitaph: HERE HE LIES, HIS WIFE GOT WISE Chicking Today this is the shortest game in the world: Strip poker between two bathing beauties. THE NEW CO-ED: I wanted him to paint a butterfly on my leg but he said he ' d paint a giraffe or nothing. Mary was full of life. I held hands with her one day and caught the itch. A guy who shoots his wife should be immediately forced to marry again for punishment. Peaches to peaches, Cream to cream, My girl ' s so warm She exhales steam. Some women have such lovely dispositions that they can ' t bear to see another woman ' s husband unhappy. AN ETIQUETTE QUESTION: When the soup is hot, is it proper to blow on it to cool it off? ANSWER: Absolutely not. The only proper thing for a gentleman to do is to fan it with his derby. A c ' ? fi A girl with false teeth must always con- trol her passion. Page Three Hundred Ninety-three ANGRY WHAK SHE: I don ' t think you love me any more, Alex. ALEX: Yes I do, dear. I ' m just not the demonstrative type. Lamb is good, And so is veal, But the chickens have The sex appeal. The proud young father dashes into his office very late in the morning shouting. I ' m a father, I ' m a father. His boss glanced at the clock disgustedly and replied, So ' s your old man. Get to work. GEORGE: I can ' t get this electricity thr ough my head. PROFESSOR: No, wood is a poor con- ductor. Jimmie W. is of the opinion that Red Hot Mamas were invented to solve the coal problem. NOTICE (Year 1950) Lecture tonight on benefits of compan- ionate marriage by Professor Barnhart. Come early. Page Three Hundred Ninety-four Dean B.. bumped by a taxi, looked up as he lay in the middle of the street, and saw a steam roller bearing down upon him. That reminds me, he exclaimed. I was to bring home some pancake flour. DOCTOR: Ebenezer. I can think of but one thing that will cure you, and that is an electric bath. EBENEZER: No, sur, Doctah, yo ' ain ' t talkin ' to dis here nigger. Ah had a frien ' what took one of dem things in Sing Sing, an it drowned him no suh. not me. SOPH: How can you afford to take so many girls to expensive restaurants? FRESH: That ' s easy. I always ask each girl just before we go in if she hasn ' t been putting on weight. ABEE: Let ' s make Whoopee. CRAMER: What ' s become of Ada? College is just like Cullin ' s washing ma- chine: You get out of it just what you put in, but you ' d never recognize it. All of the night club proprietors of Scot- land are moving to Labrador. AGROM ECK Alpha Sigma Sigma FOUNDED AT N. C. STATE, SEPTEMBER, 1926 COLORS: Green and Greener FLOWER: Self -Rising OFFICERS A.

We hope you have gotten some pleasure from looking through the pages of this book, and withal, that its contents have carried you back to memorable incidents of the session of 1928- ' 29. If our work has in any way fallen short of your ex- pectations, we are sorry, but we shall lose no sleep because you are disappointed, nor shall we pine away because your highest anticipations were not realized we have done as we thought best and knew how. And now that our task is over we wish to call your attention to a few who have helped greatly in making this book what it is. Their pictures arc not to be found in the pages of this book but their work stands out on nearly every page. To the Observer Printing House, Inc., we wish to thank for the way that they handled this book. They have given far more than any staff could even wish for and it has been a pleasure to work wi th such efficient printers. To Harold Mann of Jahn 8 Oilier Engraving Co., we wish to thank for his help and his timely suggestions. To Siddell Studio, we extend our thanks for their efficient service and especially to Mr. M. F. Dunbar. And now we wish to thank those on the staff who have helped us from start to finish and who have made our task lighter. And now good-bye. Hold every-thing. R. P.

This power today moves mountains with the ease that it whips an egg. There is hardly a task left that cannot be fulfilled completely, more quick- ly and at a less cost by the use of electric power. From the energy controlled by the switch on your wall you can light your home, cook your meals, refrigerate your food, sweep your rugs, wash and iron your clothes, pump your water and put a permanent wave in your hair. And this power, coming to you over copper wires, reflects the untiring energy that is main- tained that you may have service. Carolina Power Light Co. +._..__,._,_..____,.. Page Four Hundred - ..
