Four years have passed since first we entered Through old Wof¥ord ' s chapel door. We were trembling, verdant Freshmen, Wond ' ring what there was in store. Every one was glad to see us. Friends we found on every hand. And we got a warm reception From the eager Sophomore band. Four short years we ' ve been together Four short years of work and play. And we ' ve grown to know each other More and better every day. For when men are thrown together In close contact every day, They can learn to know each other As they could no other way Friendships we have formed among us, Friendships that are sure to last ; Friendships that will grow but dearer As the fleeting years go past. In these years we ' ve made together Noble records as a class — Records we must make more noble In the days and years that pass. For our history is not finished — It is hardly yet begun ; And the future will bring changes In the laurels we have won. The great world is calling for us. Soon will claim us as its own. And amidst its mighty struggle By our deeds we shall be known. In life ' s battle fight on squarely, Bravely, till the victory ' s won. Let us never lose our courage. Let each deed be nobly done. That which each one does with honor Will bring credit to our class. And we ' ll make our records brighter, Nobler, in the years that pass. And when the shades of death are falling. And our life is in its e ' en, We can still be proud that we were Of the Class of Seventeen. W. C. Rast

' Whence comes this smiling bunch of enthusiasm? Why, from no other place ; than Tucapau. Dinner each day is the occasion of a spirited debate between Forty-one and Andy over the relative size and importance to humanity of the historic town of Cowpens and the incipient village of Tucapau. In athletics Gret- chin was a dark horse until his Senior year, when he came to the front, winning immortal fame in the Turkey day game with Furman. He is easily distinguished from afar by the golden beams from his enormous and much-beloved Block W. The nearest thing to perpetual motion of which the Senior Class can boast is Andy ' s mouth. With little aid Andy has successfully edited the Old Gold and Black, and we expect to see him gain great eminence in the field of journahsm. SAMUEL REYNOLDS BAGWELL, A. B. SPARTANBURG, S. C. charge thee, be not thou more grieved than I am. Class Football, 1916-17, and Member of Calhoun Literary Society. Here he is, ladies, peruse this gentle face. Four years ago Sammie entered college. One big, blooming, buzzing mass of con- fusion. But the elements that go to make up a man were buried somewhere in his nature, and after four years of civilization he speaks for himself. Of all the Chemistry stars, he stands out as the most promi- nent. Besides being a scholar he is well known in the art of playing class football, making the famous all-class football team. Samie is a spring of college spirit that never ceases to flow. His pas- time is playing golf on Turners Greens ; he is also strong for the one-a-month law. It is hard for the fairer sex to with- stand the attack of such a charming warrior of Cupid. We predict for Samie one of the brightest futures — a statesman, diplo- mat, and gentleman.
