IC I HnHKl UH ■ -J- ' ' - ' mmummmmsmmmmm To the College and Prepara- tory Students of Pikeville College who are seeking en- lightenment through educa- tion, and to the teachers who are directing and supervising their endeavors, we, the Staff of 1928, dedicate this, the second edition of The High- lander. DEDICATION In this book which we now present for your approval, will be found a portrayal of life in Pikeville Coll ege during the last year. We have la- bored to make the contents as realis- tic and true to life as possible. Build- ing an annual is a difficult task, but with the fine co-operation of the fac- ulty and students, we feel our work has not been entirely in vain. If, later in life, you shall find in it a means of reviving your interest, and of living over those school days which are so full of dear memories, we, the Staff of 1928, shall have fulfilled our aim.

The first year being our initiation into the polished halls of the new administration building, we gazed in wonder at the spaciousness of our classrooms, the dignity of the faculty, and the superiority of the Sopho- mores who took us in charge, and assisted by said dignified faculty, led us over rocks and through byways along the road that leads to Shelby. At last being tired of foot and hungry within, we partook of the usual picnic food and very soon satisfied our ravenous appetites. After months of study and pleasure, we participated again in the activities of our upperclassmen and banqueted them under the bright lights of New York to a most sumptuous feast. Last of all, we gazed upon them awe stricken, when clad in cap and gown they received their diplomas and stepped out into the history of the world, and it was with great fear and trembling that we marched up a step and took their places with the purpose ef attaining, yea, surpassing the achievements attained before us. Last fall five only returned to take unto themselves this Herculean task and to play the stupendous role of College Sophomores. We were sore afraid and found difficult our ascent at first, but eventually we be- came more courageous and pressed on with greater celerity. At last, after many moons of struggle, we have scaled the rugged precipices and surmounted the glowing heights, and do now stand at the entrance to another world, and into it we intend to go, but: Here within these classic halls, Our loyal hearts will turn to thee, Though sundered wide our paths may be, Dear Alma Mater, Pikeville C. ; Ever faithful in thy love, Upward, onward, we shall move Until we gain the heights above, Dear Alma Mater, Pikeville C. Page eleven THE HIGHLAND COLLEGE SOPHOMORES FROM THE COLLEGE STUDENTS TO THE UNDERCLASSMEN (With Apologies to Kipling) When the school ' s last roll call is taken, And the ink wells are blackened and dried, When the slowest teacher has vanished, And the books have been laid aside, You may rest, and in faith, you will need it, — You may rest for a month or two, ' Till early in cold, drear September, You are called to your work anew. Then those that passed shall be happy ; They shall sit in a higher room And cope with world ' s greatest problems, Their faces enveloped in gloom. They shall find new Freshmen and haze them, Down in some lower hall, They shall study e ' en forty minutes And never be tired at all. And all the school shall envy, As monthly they hear the name On the A list of some brave shark, And the D-listers blush with shame. But each in his phase of school life, And each in his separate class, Is helping to make Pikeville College The one which none can surpass.

We shall keep always Deep in our hearts. Remember in Spring, When blue birds would sing. We joined them; We did not dream How strange it would seem On our parting day ; then Our Alma Mater, We hope to bring honor Ever to you, And to your standards, Highest ideals, Be loyal and true. Now as we ' re leaving, Happy, but grieving, Down in our hearts, School days are ending, Our ways we ' ll be wending Far apart.

The pleasant scent of the newly mown grass, mixed with the perfume of a hundred mountain flowers, wafted from the hillside on a soft breeze, drove me into a delightful trance. There semed to be a magic potency in the balmy spring air and as I closed my eyes, I saw a representation of the school year of ' 28- ' 29, float- ing vaguely before me. While I was gazing, enraptured, a great swarm of bees, each flaunting a large, silver and orchid banner flew eagerly out from the window of room 5 of the Administration building, and as they neared this form of ' 28- ' 29, they buzzed and flitted busily about so that I could see, though indistinctly, that there were pictures upon the banners. While I was lazily trying to see them more clearly, one bee flitted very close to me and I beheld Eugene Stephenson, who, because of his great knowledge of the subject, was instructing the flappers of our class in sewing. The bees had formed in a line by this time and, as the buzzing, flit- ting procession passed me, I saw all my classmates of the previous years as they are to be when they march proudly through the halls of Senior- dom. Thompson and Irene had eagerly started their old Latin class fight again, while Thompson was stoutly declaring he could lick the world, having fought with Irene for four years. Sad, but so, Bernice Kelly was married to a dashing young man of Wolfpit. ' She was saying that from her point of view things were not as bad as we might think. Taft Weddington was still singing Mary Lou, but not as loudly as of old. He was putting most of his time singing lamentably Why Did I Kiss That Gal. The Burgess boys, after having completed their education in ' 27- ' 28, had started their life ' s work— Dudley, as a dreamer of pleasant dreams, and Jeff as a monkey trainer. And— now shed your tears— Margaret Walker was not there. In- stead she was going to school in Oklahoma; but before she went she willed to our dear quiet little Mildred Music her great gift of gab. Even though Mildred couldn ' t exactly come up to Margaret in that respect, (who could?) she was doing fairly well. Robert Matney— our beloved Robert— was gone but not forgotten. It seems he passed away in the spring of ' 28 from spring fever and fear of Geometry. Hester Auxier was not playing basketball any longer, but was sing- 19 2 8 y i ! Page thirty .«yw- v s s—  v THE HIGHLANDER ing in the Glee Club, while Eleanor Marie had evidently left off her music and had taken a great fancy to basketball, in which she was making a great hit — against the floor. Floyd and Aubrey were acting very impudently. They had spent the summer at Aubrey ' s home in Missouri, and we were having an awful time making them believe things without going into details to prove them. Claire Damron was our nickel grabber again and, believe me, she was making the rusty nickels roll in. Texas Looney was putting in all her time reading the funnies, and the page she dwelt on longest was the page of The Gumps! Andy was back in school and you can easily imagine the rest. Ray and Ralph were our class darlings again. They have cheered us during all our high school days and we are wondering how we will ever be able to part with them. The Hartley girls were both back with us but my how changed ! Ruby was a slender willowy maiden and was never once saying anything crazy. Myrtle had grown decidedly short and stout, and was actually smiling at one of the boys. John Childers was better looking than ever and was simply smash- ing some of the girls ' hearts. Irene Stratton was still keeping us spoiled by petting and babying us (boys included). Cop Coleman was graduating with high honors, while our poor un- fortunate Franklin Day had positively flunked out, Franklin always did have the toughest luck of any one boy living, but he bore it bravely- poor lad ! Forrest Johnson and Ethel Smallwood were still casting smiling glances at each other about every two minutes. We shall surely hear more of this after graduation. Louise Greer was just the same modest little girl of old. John Cline was the shining light of the class with his sister Jiggs coming the next thing to out-shining him. Bowes Evans was taking cooking just to be in a class under the cute little domestic science teacher. Well, we can expect almost anything like that from him now, so we guess it is all right. Beatrice and Delia were still the fun seekers and were finding plenty of it. For further information ask them. George Childers was noticeably taller and was not playing basketball because of the unpleasant contact of his head with the rafters in the gym- nasium. When the end of the line had passed me the bees again swarmed to- gether and, surrounding the still floating form of ' 28- ' 29, they vanished with it through the window of room 8, their lovely banners streaming on the breeze.

We are few in num- ber but our spirit and ambition is far out of proportion with our class roll. The class has been very active, for the most part. It has taken part in many pro- grams and activities during the year. It also boasts of having many good athletes. The Sophomores have two representatives on The Record Staff and we are very proud of them because this year the school paper is the best we have ever had. When we become Seniors, it is our desire and ambition to have the largest class that has ever marched through the halls of Pike- ville College. If we do not realize that am- bition in quantity, we promise that it will be there in quality, and that is what counts. a Mty M W 19 2 8 Page thirty-four —  $ THE HIGHLANDER FRESHMAN CLASS Glima Hughes- Helen Stanley- -President -Treasurer Class Teacher- Jack Canella — Vice-President Fanny Mae Howell — Reporter -Louise Landrum Rebekah Amick Robert Bales Clemons Brackett Frances Coldiron Clarence Damron Hubert Damron Jesse Dotson Orville Elkins Homer Eagleston Jane Evans Burl Fields Ballard Fleming Alton Foster Billy Hambley Philip Hardin Jetta Lee Huffman Velma Hunt Myrtle Justice Myrtle Kelly George McCown Samuel McCown Edna Mae Pauley Ruth Repass Dorsey Robinson Chester Smith Clyde Smith Joel Stone Bettie Stephenson Bertha Tackett Eugene Thomas Fred Trent Ruth Trent Maurice Trivette Helen Varney Virginia Walters Bruce Webb Thomas Webber Chloe Whittaker John Williamson Alma Wimbish Murriel Wood The Freshman class, the largest in school this year, is very wide awake.

Class Teacher, Mrs. Hudson Rebecca Childers Ruby Childers William Yost Thomas Forsythe Since we are the youngest class of Junior High, we have but little his- • tory. But if you will look in the Senior section in the year 1933, you will find that we have made a good record in school activities. Our number is small, only ten, but in that group, five, Mary Jo, Thomas, Bernice, Lon, and William have taken their schooling together, starting under the splendid guidance of Mrs. Kendrick. We have made fine progress. William has almost overcome that bad habit of saying I seen, when he really means I saw. Thomas has come to the conclusion that since he has used nearly all the ands in the dictionary, the rest should be left for us. The Seventh Graders are active members of the literary society, some serving on the committees, others taking part in the programs. We are enjoying our first year as Junior High members, and are glad to be entitled to a section in The Highlander. Page thirty-seven + +0 m 90  THE HIGHLANDER i '  i %  v i JUNIOR HIGH LITERARY ACTIVITIES The Junior High Literary Society is one of the best organi- zations on the campus. The meetings are held every two weeks and are well attended. On a number of occasions, the Junior High chapel has been filled to its capacity with literary inclined students and guests. There are two outstanding features of every meeting : first, the fine parliamentary order used in conducting the meeting; second, the excellent programs prepared under the direction of the English teachers, Miss Landrum and Mrs. Hudson. Each program of the term just ended was closely associated with some important day of the month, the first being a Ken- tucky patriotic program. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Lincoln and Washington programs also were given with great success. The musical and literary talents of the members are devel- oped in this way, and each one is given the opportunity to apply what he has learned ; for without the ability to do so, knowledge is of little benefit. The Junior High boys and girls are an energetic group of students and are laying a good foundation for their entrance into Senior High and College. They are the Seniors of tomorrow. Up from the grades they come with their eyes ever focused upon the goal they are striving to reach. Closely associated with Junior High are many memories dear to all of us who have come up from its campus. School day im- pressions are the ones most indelibly fixed. We can not forget them. They are always returning to make us happy. 19 2 8 xw i W w w Page thirty-eight THE HIGHLANDER COACH HUDSON Athletics holds the place it does in Pikeville College because of Coach Hudson. Tireless in energy, and with a keen interest in all that pertains to athletics, he has accomplished much, in the two years he has been with us, for the athletic equipment and spirit of the school. Some of the outstanding achievements in the way of equipment, have been the heating, interior finishing, and reseating of the gym, and the complete outfitting of three teams with suits. The athletic accomplishments have been the production of the first, strictly college basketball team, exceedingly strong boys ' and girls ' acad- emy teams, and a large squad of runts to replace the losses that come each year. Baseball, too, has received recognition for the first time as an integral part of the athletic program. As a financier, Coach Hudson has proved himself somewhat of a wiz- ard. The past year he has given a season costing more than two-thou- sand dollars, and has ended it without a deficit. This meant a schedule of games with the strongest teams that could be secured, including col- leges as well as boys ' and girls ' high school teams. Athletics of the future will owe much to the wisdom and consistent planning with which Coach Hudson has conducted the athletic activities of the season of ' 26- ' 28.

BOARD Lyman Jay Marion Marion Coach Hudson ' s right hand men through the past season have been Corbin and Williamson. Together, these three, the Athletic Board, have planned the ways and means of a successful athletic season, both from the view point of interest and enthusiasm as well as finances. Cheerfully, the happy-go-lucky two, have patrolled the highways and byways, posting posters, scattering hand bills and conducting their ex- tensive advertising campaign. No small share of the success of the sea- son is due to their energy and hard work. Pep at the basketball games has been at its best this year. For when Goofy and Hot-Shot appear in their fetching caps, and suits of white, orange and black, point their megaphones and proceed with their remark- able gyrations, who can refrain from yelling? Certainly not the crowd of enthusiastic rooters at the games ! Hence fifteen Rah ' s for Pikeville College! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Facing overwhelming odds, Coach Hudson called practice, and from the small group that came out he moulded a squad that held Kentucky Wesleyan Frosh for three quarters, and would have won the game had not both Hatcher and Williamson been retired on fouls. Everyone remembers the fight they put up against the Morris-Har- vey Reserves. Trailing the Morris-Harvey the whole first half, they came back and nosed them out by a score of 18 to 17. And who doesn ' t remember the night that Corbin and Bickford got hot and walloped the Elkhorn Ramblers by the decisive score of 43 to 13 ? The Academy department just couldn ' t stand up under these large mountain giants and fell in both encounters. Considering the material that was available the school should feel complimented for the wonderful showing that they made. They played teams that were in a class all their own. The team will practically all be back next year, and then watch for the Bears and just listen for that growl. Hatcher, our tall pivot man played good basketball throughout the whole season. Who has forgotten so soon how he laid them in, in the Mor- ris-Harvey game ? Bickford, forward, is one of the best defensive men on the team. Doost went hot against the Elkhorn Ramblers and the All Stars. Handy is the stellar little guard, who, along with Atkins, stopped the best of them. Atkins is the tower of strength of the Bear ' s team. He is one of the coolest headed players that ever graced the court. Captain Corbin is forward and running mate with Bickford. He could always be depended on to hit the old hoop. Williamson is one of the most valuable men on the team. Jay played equally well at all positions, since he held down guard, forward, and cen- ter, and was always ready to do his part.

In spite of this handicap, Coach Hudson took all of the available timber and produced an aggregation that ranked along with the best in the Big Sandy Valley. This year the Academy played a large schedule including some of the fastest teams the institution has ever engaged. Although the state champions proved a little too much for the boys, nevertheless they held their own with the Portsmouth quintette from the Ohio Valley.

Pikeville Academy is the Strongest team in the Pikeville District ADMISSION - - - 50 25 CENTS The Academy will have an abundance of material for development next season, and present indications point to the building up of a team that will sweep everything before them. Probably the most outstanding man for the Academy was George Childers, the tall rangy center, who was the top scorer for the year. He made a total of 95 points. He also captained the team. The next high point man was Tac Weddington, the little forward, who slipped away from the best guards. The other members did good work and are to be commended for their playing.

No, don ' t get the idea that it was a basketball game — even if we did try to hit the nigger baby. It was just a fore-runner of the season, having the two fold purpose of awaken- ing dormant enthusiasm, and helping to buy the girls ' basketball equipment. Our first game of the season was the hardest. Pluckily, we joggled down the state for a game with the far-famed Ashland Kittens. We played our best and had a wonderful time at Ash- land, even though we lost by a pretty large score. Our next game was on our own floor and brought us a 12-8 victory- Our opponents were the Jenkins girls — a fine team of athletic sportsmen. Apparently, turn about is fair play, for when we returned the game on the Jenkins floor, the honors went to them, though with the small score of 8-9. Our next game abroad, the one with Betsy Layne, ended in a large margin in our favor. The last game of our season was played on the Paintsville floor. It was with regret that we left behind Katy May, one of our forwards, with appendicitis, and Gertrude Evans, one of our guards, with a bad gash on her head. The survivors of the team did their best to give the Paintsville folks a good peppy game. As we look back over our season, it is with appreciation of what Coach and Mrs. Hudson have done for us, and the wonderful time they have shown us on all our trips. We are sorry they will not be back with the team next year. N WV MW  V W 19 2 8 Page forty-six - « %   THE HIGHLANDER ik m v v v ommsmxmm TUq Hunts co «c . JB-, t ° f • ; , t : ,« .

Collis P. Hudson, Coach v «A W m v 19 2 8 Page forty-nine THE HIGHLANDER BASEBALL Baseball is beginning to hold a prominent place in our ath- letics. We play a few games in the fall just after school opens, and then in the spring when the sun shines brightest, we start playing in earnest. Most of our games are played on Friday afternoon and Saturday. Sometimes we board a truck or car of some des- cription and journey up or down the river and match up with any of them that feel so inclined. Last fall we had two interesting games with the Shelby Railroaders, winning one and losing one. Elkhorn City, Paints- ville, Pikeville High School and Betsy Layne are our prominent opponents. This year the strength of our team has been increased consid- erably by the addition of a catcher from Virginia. His name is Skipper and he works well behind the timber. George Childers plays the important position of first base, and it is a rare thing that one goes over his lofty head. Taft Wed- dington and George McCown form a blockade around second base and short stop, and only a few of the very hottest ones find their way to the outfield. Curtis Cantrell zealously attends to third base, and is famous throughout this region for the death sen- tences he deals out to those who strategically get through second. Jones, McCoy, Elkins, Canella, Hughes, Atkins, Bickford, Ramey, Trent and others vie for substitute and field positions. Hatcher works from the mound and is proud of his position. As this book goes to press a number of games have been scheduled for the ensuing season, and we are looking forward to the greatest number of victories we have ever had. jl Hj-i ru i ■ j-i .np — tt rri- , i tli 19 2 8 4 P 1 1 ■   ' ' + Page fifty ,i. v hamstV- THE HIGHLANDER ' • + ■ ' CABINET OF CHRISTIAN WORK Elsie Trivette, President Nell Johnson, Sec ' y and Treas.
