Rumor •1 i Main Building Here one feels a sense sublime, Of something far more deeply interfi History of Wofford College EV. BENJAMIN WOFFORD, a local minister of the Metho- dist Church, South, died in the town of Spartanburg, S. C, on Dec. 2, 1850; and left by his will a legacy of one hundred thou- = 8 sand dollars to the South Carolina Conference of his church, for the purpose of establishing and endowing a college for literary, classical, and scientific education, to be located in my native district, Spartanburg. A char- ter was granted by the Legislature of South Carolina, December 6, 1 85 1 . When suitable buildings had been erected, a president and professors were elected, and the college was opened August 1 , I 854. Since that time it has never been suspended.

Which e ' er the Muses used of yore, Lured us; and hither flocked the boys Of nineteen twenty-four. Year after year we have returned To start again the waiting task. Each year new truths we ' ve slowly learned. But now these years are past. Four years we ' ve trod these paths that twine So indolently ' neath the trees. And here we ' ve always seemed to find Gay laughter on the breeze. We ' ve sat in desks once filled by men Who long have fought their fight and won. Who doubtless know just how and when Our fight will be begun. Initials of these men of fame We ' ve seen carved on the wail and floor. Beside each name we ' ve cut a name. And scratched in twenty-four. These marks, howe ' er, may quickly fade; Their durance on mere chance depends. But elsewhere lasting marks we ' ve made — They ' re etched in hearts of friends. For friendship when its birth doth lie In mutual happiness and tears Breaks not its bonds with a good-by Or dies with passing years. But, classmates, time doth intervene! The parting hour now draweth near; So ere we leave this happy scene, Let ' s altogether swear To try in everything we do, In great deed or in little chore, To be to Alma Mater true. And true to Twenty-Four. 20 Senior Class Officers M. B. WILSON, President J. A. BATSON, Vke-PresiJenl W. M. HOLCOMBE, Secretary} B. E. ELKS, Poei W. H. HOPE, Treasurer PAUL HARDIN Jr., Prophet R. H.

All are loveniorihy, if D e have ii in us to love. Miller Chief Wilson is not a Woodrow, but we venture to assert that he has been president of more things at the same time than has that great Democrat. By his stature, you would judge him to be a Na- poleon, but Nature has destined him to be a William Jennings Bryan. Indeed, he has a tongue from which such mellifluous phrases flow as to put even Cicero to shame. This ability to hand out a line, which is derived from his natural fluency of speech, quali- fied him to shoot Bill perfectly, and so he specialized in English. Coupled with his silvery tongue is a nerve, a will, and a personality which make an irresistible appeal to the fairer sex. Chief, however, is not only an orator, but is also an author of great fame, having produced such masterpieces as Dr. Pettigrew, Thorny Points — Re duced, etc. With such versatile abilities there are no heights to which he may not attain. 23 ROBERT LeROY ANDERSON TRAVELLERS REST, S. C. Yezdikhast Candidate for A. B. Sophomore Monthly Orator, First Censor, Preston Literary Society; Corporal, R. O. T. C; Engi- neering Club. Do not love pour enemies; have no enemies to love. Tater Robert LeRoy Anderson made his first appearance in our vicinity in the year twenty. Tater, as he is better known to us, spent two years at B. M. I. before he could make up his mind which college in the Stale was the best. Finally he managed to de- cide that this was the best place for the best men. Thus you see how it became our good luck to have such a man with us. We are indeed sorry to part with him, but it would be an act of selfishness if we should try to keep him any longer. He is a friend to all because he knows not the meaning of the word enemy. Tater has fought the college battle like a man and it is with great sorrow that we see him leave. A true friend is one who will stick to the end, and here is one who will always stay by those who love him. To Anderson we hope that his future may be as noble and fair as his past has been. We see no reason why his ways should change. He takes from us, one and all, our best wishes for a happy and prosperous life. EVERETT PIERCE ARANT BOWMAN, S. C. Candidate for A. B. Distinction in Scholarship (1) (2) (3); Freshman Monthly Orator, First Critic Snyder Literary So- ciety; Member Carlisle School Alumni; Members Three Year Club; Sergeant, Second Lieutenant, R. O. T. C. Lei us only trust and Jo our best, and Tvear as smiling a face as maj) be for others and our- selves. ' Baby From the city of Bowman hails this three-year wonder. He entered from Carlisle School in 1921, but little did old Wofford realize the latent possi- bilities that slept undisturbed in this innocent freshie. To-day we know at least something of them, because his work on the campus has always been of the highest order. Due to his size, Everett has not taken part in any athletics; but few were the games which did not find him rooting for old Wofford. ' E. P. is not a ladies ' man, so he says, but we suspect that there is a sweet young lassie waiting for him somewhere in the wilds of Orangeburg County. Everett is quiet, unassuming, but his smile is always ready, his handshake firm, to those who are fortunate enough to call him friend. He has worked his way into our hearts and we hate to see him go; but we have no fear for his future, for he is the com- bination of a student, a gentleman, and a friend, and this has always meant just one thing — Success. 25 JAMES MAXWELL BAILEY GREAT FALLS, S.

Let me live in a house b ) the side of ihe road, and he a friend lo man. Jimmie Jimmies college career has been a success from every standpoint. His scholarship is remarkable; one could scarcely believe that so small a man could possess such a great amount of brains and common- sense. On the football field he was a hard and per- sistent worker, and was known as the small man who could be depended on. The Terriers will miss him next year. His twirling for the championship baseball team earned for him fame and the nick- name of Smiling Jimmie. ' There is a current report on the campus that Jimmie has a very serious case of love-sickness. Well, we can t blame any girl for being crazy about him, and we predict for him the greatest happiness, for Jimmie is true in all things. He numbers the entire student body among his friends, for he possesses that rarest and most valuable of good quali- ties, that of being able to make friends wherever he goes. 26 President, First Critic, First Censor, Correspond- ing Secretary, Treasurer, Junior Monthly Orator, Carlisle Literary Society; Honor System (4), Vice- President Senior Class; Wofford College Council (3) (4) ; Member Carlisle Hall Executive Commit- tee (3) (4) ; President Carlisle Hall Executive Committee (4); Member Block W Club (1) (2) (3) (4); Circulation Manager The Old Cold and Black (4) ; President Orangeburg County Club ; Athletic Advisory Board; Presidents ' Club; Varsity Baseball (1) (2) (3) (4); Assistant Captain (3); Captain, Baseball Team (4) ; Varsity Basket-ball (3) ; Class Basket-ball (1) (2); Manager Sopho- more Class Football Team (2) ; Bohemian Art Club (I); Member (1), Corporal (2) R.

And now, as he leaves Wofford, he can be pointed out as a fine representative of the best type of Wofford man. Of all the numerous walks of college life, it is, perhaps, in athletics, that Bat ' s star has scintil- lated with the greatest brilliancy, to old Wofford ' s honor as well as to his own. In basket-ball he proved to be a player of extraordinary ability. Base- ball, however, is the sport of sports with Bat. ' While here, he has furnished Wofford with the best shortstop that she has been able to boast of in many a year. His playing won for him a place on the mythical all-State team for two years. Although an unfortunate accident prevented his playing his Senior year, he was intrusted with the captaincy of the 1924 team. Of the thnigs that go into the making of a man, Bat possesses a vibrant and winning nersonality, a sunshiny and congenial disposition, and the standards of a gentleman of the highest calibre. He is a friend to everyone and to be other tfian a friend to him is impossible. 27 GEORGE WILLIAM BEGG SPARTANBURG, S. C. n K , Candidate for A. B.

Give to the world the best ihat pou have, and the best will come bacl( to you. Bill To do this sketch justice is to soar to the heights, to descend to the depths, to traverse the ends of the earth. Where, Oh! where, was there ever such a combination of the human elements as in Bill Begg? We entreat you who do not know him, be not too harsh at first acquaintance. We who do, testify that despite evidence to the contrary, he has good points. To begin with, Bill is a man of abnormial judgment. Having entered a year before us, he realized that a man of his calibre could not suffer himself to be graduated with those of ' 23, and ac- cordingly, he spent one quiet year at Sewanee. From his decision to return to his rightful institution, we count ourselves the gainers. On the gridiron, B. Begg had a part in the making of the team that started Wofford on the up-grade in ' 23. However, his chief claim to ath- letic glory is in basket-ball. He fought hard and fast, and was one of the battering rams of Wofford ' s offense. We are not prophets, but we may predict with certainty that Taussig and Roger Babson will not always reign supreme. As Business Manager of the Old Cold and Black, Bill displayed a genius that resulted in making it a different publication. Of a cheerful disposition, unfamiliar with the term worry, possessing enough deviltry to make life pleasant, he is by no means devoid of serious thought, and has, no doubt, a sound philosophy of life. Above all, he is dependable, and fortunate in- deed are those who count themselves among his friends. 28 NEVILLE WORTH BENNETT CLIO, S. C. K A, n K ACandidite-f .

Shake Throughout our college career, and chiefly through- out the last three years, there has been in our class one outstanding character. He created no great ex- citement in his freshman year; he was by no means a prodigy of popularity. Nor did he seek in any way to gain a place within the public gaze and favor. He simply lived his normal life, for about a year, and then the college discovered him. Since that lime he has taken a place in college activities nol paralleled by any other in this student generation at Wofford. It would be of no use to attempt to follow Ben- nett inio the different phases of college life in which he look part. His principal fields of activity were ihe plalfo m and the classroom. But Io be brief, and Io speak the truth, he had no specially. He is a living model of ihe all-round man. He had no special clique; he was the friend of all. Seldom does a college turn out such a product. Seldom is a man so universally popular, so highly esteemed by every class of student and the faculty. Seldom is a class blessed with such a leader. This inadequate sketch does not pretend to be a full char- acterization. For details, glance through the rest of the volume. To have known him was a privi- lege. To have been counted among his friends was an honor. 29 MacDOWELL BLACKWOOD , SPARTANBURG, S. C. i Candidate for A. B. Second Lieutenant, R. O. T.

Thro ' troops of unrecording friends, A deedful life, a silent Voice. f Mac Here we behold a lover of the Terpsichorean art, an enthusiastic R. O. T. C. student, and a man well- liked by man and maid. Mac spent the first year of his college career at the Citadel in order that his unripeness could wear off, so that he could enter Wofford. Since his return to the City of Success he has many friends on the campus. Never in a grouchy mood, always willing lo enjoy a good laugh, John has won a place in the hearts of his college- mates that is to be envied. He has not stated his serious intentions yet but those who have watched his progress feel that he is fully capable to qualify as a teacher of Religious Education in one of the leading colleges of the country. Mac has a knack at getting in with the professors; and this achievement in itself can be relied upon to help him in later years. While not engaged in scholastic or military duties, John is busy giving society an enviable treat. With his rare gracefulness and his knowledge of the Terpsichorean art, he has become very promi- nent in the various ballrooms throughout the South- land. Occasionally (?) he finds lime to visit Con- verse and on these occasions all the youthful maidens clamor for a sight of him. A man admired by men, idolized by women and endowed with a won- derfully gifted personality, a cheerful disposition and a brilliant mind — a man with a combination of this kind already has greatness thrust upon him, and therefore will know of nothing less than success. 30 NATHANIEL CARROLL BOUZARD FORT MOTTE, S.

The friends ihou hasl, and their adoption tried. Grapple them to ih soul with hoops of steel. ' Buzz The boys who know Buzz — and all of them know him — recognize in him those qualities essential to the highest type of manhood. His jovial dispo- sition, his frankness, and his sincerity have won for him many friends on the campus. It is also certain from his accomplishments that Buzz possesses rare ability. First of all, he is the artist of the class. To be convinced of this, one needs only to look at his drawings in The Bohemian. The high offices that he obtained in the Snyder Literary Society are in- dicative of the work that he did along this line. As a Junior Debater, Buzz gave splendid evidence of his oratorical ability. He is a reader, a thinker, a reveller in wit and original thought; his personality is refreshingly original ; he will some day make a strong man. 31 9: ' B Candidate for A. B.

Desire not io live long, bui to live well; How long we live, nol pears, but actions lelL ' Dave A prodigy in Math., a most reliable guard on the football field, and a favorite with the ladies, are a few of the many good characteristics of this hand- some youth from Lake City. David came to Wofford Fitting School and then to Wofford College. He is greatly interested in Spartanburg; and, in spile of the fact that he has wonderful prospects of becoming a wealthy tobacco planter, we wonder whether he will not add him- self to the list of Sparlanbug citizens. If Lake City keeps David, it means, we believe, that the City of Success will lose one of its charming inhabitants; but, either way it turns out the one will lose and the other gam a valuable citizen. All happiness to you, David; you deserve the best things the world has to offer! 32 ANDREW JACKSON CAUTHEN, JR. ORANGEBURG, S. C. K A, Candidate for A. B. Pre-Med.

Jack Jack, since coming to us from Orangeburg, has made a great success of his college career, and has admirably upheld the family traditions of a long line of Cauthen graduates. Always interested in any activity, he has ever taken his place at the front. On the diamond and in the literary society he has been a hard and consistent viforker, and is a credit to the society and to the team. Socially, Jack has us guessing; we are totally unable to fathom the secret of his success. But a success he is, and constantly in demand. It IS with the greatest of sorrow that we tell Jack good-bye, for we have grown to love him. His sunny smile, his sincerity, and his dependability have won him a wa-m place in our hearts. We wish and predict for him the very best that life has to offer. 33 i -I EDWIN McALZIR COLLINS SPARTANBURG, S. C. K 2, Candidate for A. B.

As an athlete, his record is an envious one. One of the most brilliant basket-ball players South Caro- lina has ever known, this fleet-footed end has also brought the crowd to their feet more than once by a sensational catch of a forward pass, or with a ter- rific tackle. Now, Ed is not only famous as a Snake with the Ladies in South Carolina, but in Georgia and North Carolina as well. All the girls know Ed. In the classroom he has proved his ability by graduating in three years. Ed is noted as the best and most original excuse-maker in Mr. Woffords College. ' Why, even Jimmy takes his excuses. He is noted for shooting his professors. Now, we have spoken of Edwin s athletics, his winning ways with the ladies, and his ability in the classroom; but the thing thai this young man can well be proud of, is the way in which his fellow- students look upon him — that is, as a clean, brave, high-toned, honorable fellow, and a gentleman in every sense of the word. Luck to you, Eddie! 34 LEX MONTAGUE COPELAND SPARTANBURG, S. C. B , Candidate for A. B.

And pleasure m ) business. Monty A truly successful lad from the City of Success! Monty, with his happy smile and his cheerful greet- ing has won the friendship and admiration of the entire student body. His talents are many, and he makes use of every one. He found himself in his Senior year to be a real athlete, wmnmg a position on both the football and basket-ball teams. Al- though not a scintillating star on the gridiron, he gave his all, along with the rest of the linemen, in making the Old Gold and Black Varsity the best in many years. In basket-ball circles, he was the most consistent player on the entire team. Many a per- fect attempt to loop the basket was thwarted by this aggressive guard. Probably the outcome of many of our victories would have been very different if he had been absent. As a scholar, he looks up to no man and his peers are few. Never has he experienced a 4, and his 3 ' s are like hen-teeth. At the end of each col- legiate year his name is invariably on the list of distinction. This alone shows that he is a scholar with an athletic temperament, a combination hard to beat. UROY HILL COX ABBEVILLE, S. C. S A E, Candidate for A. B.

' Harry In these days of doubt and cynicism as to the worth of human nature, it is indeed a treat to come in contact with one in whom we can place absolute trust, one on whom we can rely when the real lest comes. Friendship is a word which is lightly used, but it IS a word which, in its true sense means more than human tongue can describe. In the capacity for this quality, Harry is excelled by none. The only way to have a friend is to be one — is a true statement, and it indicates perfectly the course which he has pursued. A more glowing, a cheerier disposition, one could not find. His incessant flow of mirt ' i and merriment might mislead some, but it only serves lo conceal the depth of his soul below. Although it may take a little time to really know him, in the associations of every-day life, in the common trials and struggles, the pure gold of his character is burnished until it shines with a glow of warmth and brightness. His college life has been broad. In scholarship he has for three years won distinction. In behalf of his literary society he wielded a pen in a man- ner that did credit to them both. During his Senior year he was cheer leader; and, in another line. Cap- lain of the prize company in the military unit. In social circles is he especially popular, displaying ever as he does, the qualities of a true gentleman. Within the inner circle made up of those we call our friends, there may be still furthe ' ' classification. There are those whom we adm re and esteem, there are those in whom we take pride, and there are those whom we love. A heart, warm and sincere, a personality, masnetic and lovable as this is, could come only in the latter class. It is little we have to offer, Harry, but if our best wishes can bring you success and happiness, you will indeed have no trouble in gaining your life ' s ambition. 36 JOE WILLIAM CRAWFORD OLD FORT, N.

PacJ( up your troubles in your old l ii bag. And smile, smile, smile. Joe Several years ago, in 1920, to be exact, a new face appeared upon our campus which seemed to brighten every group in which it was seen. It was none other than Joe Crawford, with his cheerful words, ready smile, and winnmg personality. Since that day Joe has acquired a host of friends here. In Joe we have an athlete, an orator, a scholar, and a gentleman. Joe has been an indispensable member and manager of our baseball team; and when Joe plays on the hot corner everybody knows that that part of the diamond is safe. Only those who have had a chance to hear him rave in society know of his powers of oratory and debate. His society could not have chosen a more able president and as for being a scholar — ask Mace. ' Politeness and gentlemanly conduct are two of Joe ' s best qualities; and for a man of his qualities and potentialities we predict an enviable future. Good luck, Joe, and may we meet often. 37 LAWRENCE HOPKINS CURRY OWINCS, s. c. Candidate for A. B.

He deserves his success for he has been a hard and consistent worker. Always true to his friends and his word, we know that he is dependable; and we do not hesitate to put our faith in his suc- cess along the bumpy road of life. He has not confided in us as to what is his par- ticular ambition in life; but, whatever it is, he has only to display that fine sense of duty and loyalty which have been evident throughout his college career, and his dream will become a reality. It is with deepest sorrow that we bid Tuc fare- well. We hate to lose him, but we know that once a friend, always a friend, he will always carry our thoughts and best wishes along with him, even as we will carry his. HAROLD EDWIN DANTZLER PARLER, S. C. . Candidate for A. B. Second Critic, Recording Secretary, Preston Lit- erary Society. My future will not copy fair my past. Jack Jack has smiled his way into the hearts of all who know him; he is a friend to everyone of us. Jack has laughed at misfortune — and he has had his share. May we never forget his example! But Dantzler can be serious, too. In years to come, when we call back over our lists of close friends, we will remember Dantzler as an ideal student as well as an ideal man. Few records have been left at Wofford better than those which we have watched him make. His success in college has been great and we predict for him and wish him a far greater success in life. He has been quiet and unassuming, steady, true, and trustworthy. There is no fuss about him; but there is a solidity, a calmness, and a dignity that marks him for a noble life. 39 Edwards has assumed the role of professor. I his year, aside from his steady work in his classes, he has elected to carry the torch of knowledge into the darkness of Liberty. His work has kept him away from the campus and away from many of the various activities of college life. He has doubtless surrendered many pleasures for the sake of his work, and we admire him for his sacrifices. We predict for H. T. a future made happy by diligent work and made colorful by the reward of it al BENJAMIN EARL ELKS MARION, S. C. B , Candidate for A. B.

He is quite the berries when it comes to making verse; we ' ve studied some in English Four that we consider worse.

Bulldog Louis Saint Claire is the name by which he was first known; but to us, he is universally known as Bulldog. Due to his diminutive size, Bulldog has never taken any active part in college athletics, but he is one of the most loyal and conscientious side- line supporters of the Old Gold and Black, and from the first minute to the last whistle he is there with the old pep. Saint Claire came to us from Clemson. That does not necessarily mean that he isn t a good man — m fact, he is a remarkable man — good fellows come from Clemson, but the remarkable side is shown by where they go when they leave there. Fairey is a one-girl man, ' and somewhere down in the wilds of Orangeburug County this little lassie is waiting and longing. He is also a man ' s man, quiet and unassuming he has worked his way into our hearts and the hearts of the faculty. His college career has been a great success, for his scholastic work has been good and on the campus he has made many, many friends. We hate to see him go, but his success is assured for he is a worker, a friend, and a gentleman. 42 ihly Orator (2) (3) (4), Anniversary Ora- tj i Recording Secretary, First Censor, First Critic, resident, Snyder Literary Society; Cheer Leader (4); Society Reporter (3), Local Editor (4), The.

George IVashington has died; Cicero has died; in fact, all great men are dying, and I don ' t feel so rvell myself. Izzy The loss of ' 23 was the gain of ' 24. Glad in- deed are we that G. R. suspended his studies for a year, since in him we have an element which the class could ill afford to miss. It is rumored that in his early days he took his fun where he found it, but the year of silence seemed to mature him some- what. It is this later Izzy that we know so well. It seems almost a sacrilege for a mere novice to attempt to wield the quill against one so well-versed in its art. Without a doubt, no member of the Senior Class is so gifted with the flow of flowery syllables, original and significant, as our friend, Floyd. He was the mainstay of The Old Cold and Black, and without him there is grave doubt if there would have been a paper. Izzy possesses a disposition that could only endear him to those who knew him. With ever a cheerful greeting, a pleasing countenance, and in- variably a witty remark to further increase the levity, his is a personality that will be long remem- bered by his classmates. On the Glee Club, he was a drawing card; and in addition to his contribution to the bass section, his stellar role in the Poor Four of ' 23, achieved him vocal and comic fame. His election as delegate to the Indianapolis Con- vention, during the past year, was the means of con- vincing him that Latta wasn ' t the whole cheese after To this illustrious son of ' 24, we wish the best the fates may offer. He deserves no less, and with him go the high regards of his entire class. 43 ARTHUR HENRY FORT PELION, S. C. Yezdikhast, Candidate for A. B. Member, First Censor, Carlisle Literary Society; Member Webber Hall Executive Committee; Presi- dent Lexington County Club; Corner Store Club; Latin 4 Club. ' The rvorld is comedy to those rvho lhin}(, tragedy to those who feel. Shimmy Arthur, who is better known to us as Shimmy, hails from the lowlands of Lexmgton County. He began his college career at the College of Charles- ton; but after a little consideration he realized his serious mistake; so he left The City by the Sea and joined our class at the beginning of the second term of ' 21 and from that linje on he has been a loyal Wofford man. Shimmy possesses an attractive and winning per- sonality and a congenial disposition. He is a gen- erous and faithful friend and a real pal to a friend, and he has many of them. He is not a bookworm, but it seems that he possessed the art of shooting the faculty and especially Uncle Gus in Latin 3 and 4 and also Jimmie ' in French 3 and 4. We do not know what the fair sex will do when Shimmy leaves The City of Success, for he has been the center of attraction among the social circle. Well, in fact, Shimmy is a real sport and we know that his bright countenance and cheerful disposition will carry him through life on aerial wings. 44 JAMES LESTER FOSTER INMAN, S. C.

Ever )thing harmonizes with me ivhich is harmonious lo ihee, O! Universe. Spud Descended from the ancient Saratoga Foster, of the Ethiopian Militia, Spud is necessarily a man of no mean ability. At least so runs the genealogy as brought to light in the course of his introduction with the Harmless Harmony Hounds of 1923. An optimistic character he certainly is, and generally liked for his comical remarks and genial person- ality. He claims Gramling as the city of his nativity, and judging from his frequent visits there, he loves it well. One of the finest first tenors that Wofford, or any other college, has produced in a number of years, he has found in the Glee Club his chief vehicle to fame. In 1923, he was the main hit in the comic numbers, and in 1924 he was promoted to the first quartet, where his rights and abilities were contested by none. Foster ranks high in scholarship, finishing his col- lege course in three years, and keeping his grades at an unusually high standard throughout. In Psy- chology, especially, is he a telling force. His theories and principles, advanced and propounded from hearsay and exp erience, might furnish James, Woodworth, and the others, with food for thought for quite a while. 45 ERNEST GLENN FULLER. JR.

M ) candle is lighted at both ends; il mill not lasl the night; But Oh, My Friends, and Oh, My roes, it gives a brilliant light. Screench Since Screench came to Wofford four years ago from the wide awake city of Clinton, there has been a vast improvement both in his appearance and in his intellectual capacity. Although it took Screench two full years to learn exactly where he was, and what he was domg here, he has now be- come very familiar with his surroundings and fully realizes his importance in the city. Mr. Fuller ' s small stature is easily offset by his great mental capacity. Although too small for ath- letics, his ability in the classroom ranks among the highest. He has a winning personality, one that not only makes close friends with the boys he is thrown with, but with the fair sex of the Sunny South as well. The girls, they go wild, simply wild, over him. Why it is, is more than I can answer. Now it is true, Screench is not fickle — far is he from that — but it IS also true that it is no fault of his that they won ' t let him alone. He possesses the rare ability to elaborate his flowery language at the psychological moment. Screench, with this power, this influence over nature, there is not a doubt in our minds that the roads of life will be made easy for you. We hate to see you leave us, but we sincerely hope that hap- piness and success will be your future. esi ' dent, Second Censor, Preston Literary ., Secretary and Treasurer Y. M. C. A.; . C. A.

And l must follom, as the night the JaVi, Thqh canst not then be false to anp man. To many of us who came to college direct from high school or prep, the task seemed tedious enough; but to settle down to a student ' s life after four years on the high seas, to become a Sophomore after having been an Ensign, is not only extraordi- nary, but also indicative of an ambition that will be satisfied with nothing less than realization. A glance at the items above will remind you that they are the achievements of no ordinary individual, accomplished as they were in a career of two years and a half. Football and baseball kept Tommy in the pub- lic eye. He was a member of the Varsity eleven for two years, and of the diamond squad for three. ' Ats ' a baby! Go hard, Vars ' ty! Go hard! were the words which never died away, despite the depths to which the Gold and Black was submerged. This slogan Gait took also into his every-day life and made it a part of him. Whatever he did, he did with a will. In his chosen field of law we wish for him the greatest success. Among his other attributes, we must admit that he is not lacking in the flow of high tem- peratured ether, so necessary in a man of his pro- fession. He came into our number and made a place and a name for himself; as we go out together, we are proud to own him as one of us. 47 ARTHUR FRANKLIN GRAHAM RIDGEVILLE, S. C. B ! ' , Candidate for A. B.

Arthur Oscar, Snooks, Beechnut, or Newt was formally christened and definitely labeled Arthur; and we still prefer the ti tle, for it suggests to us his sterling worth, strength, and unrightness. Snooks IS a good student, likes Psychology and Polit, ' but he also likes to slay at home after Christmas — now, we ' ll have to tell the rest — Arthur seems to like Ridgeville mighty well. He says that it is because of the hunting and fishing; but we rather think there IS something else attracting his attention. We would also like to see that fine dog of his. Arthur has two avocations, canteening and spark-plugging. Per- haps the second habit is superinduced by the first; or maybe the first causes the second; but however that may be, Arthur has these two characteristics and one more; his friendliness with all the boys on the cam- pus. We can never forget his pleasing personality, for his genial image is etched deep in the hearts of us all. We p edict for Arthur many friends and a great, good, and successful life. 48 EUGENE LAMAR GRIFFIN y PINEWOOD, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Griff One glance at the countenance which greets us on this page is enough to put us at ease on one score at least — Griffin will never die of overwork. The midnight oil is unknown to this gentleman; yet he has completed his course in the regular time ; Shot ' Dune, Heinie, and the rest consistently; and more than once added his name to the honored dis- tinction list. There is only one inference to draw from these facts: briefly, that Griffin is blest with an unusually bright mind. Eller is a firm believer in the doctrine that Worry never accomplished anything worth while. No matter what the circumstances, times, or condi- tions, his face has worn that contented smile through- out our college course. He is rather quiet and is not quick to put himself forward, but whenever ap- proached, he invariably responds with the pleasant attitude characteristic of him. In Military Science and Tactics, Griff has found a field for the development of his ability. He took in two of Uncle Sam ' s camps during the summer of 1923, and held the office of Lieutenant in the local unit. We know not what he intends to do, but whatever it is, we feel sure that his disposition will certainly be the means of his advancement. We wish him the best of luck. 49 Distinction in Scholarship (1) (2) (3) (4); CJiss Football (1) (2) 3); Member Snyder Literary So- ciety; Member Wofford Fitting School Alumni. ; Forj Friendship, of ihelf a holy lie.

I Fatty With love for those of his choice, and with offers of friendship for all others not so fortunate, Fatty has steered his ship through the breakers into a haven of peace and glory. He has consistently won distinction in his studies notwithstanding the fact that certain young ladies at various, times have claimed his attention. He may be master of his destiny in the kingdom of learning; but in the realm of love he has become a submissive slave. Many will miss Fatty ' s cheery Good Mawnin ' ' with its accom- panying cheerful smile at the chapel steps on cold winter days. His qualities of character lie deep and are not seen by the casual acquaintance, but the more intimate the relation the greater and broader do they unfold and excite your admiration. We hope, with one accord, that he will reap the rewards of his labors as he goes forth into the world to conquer its more practical problems, and that love will ever light his path through life. 50 (f PAUL HARDIN, Jl CHESTER, S.

' Who seel s Tvilhoul an open mind. The truth Tuill very seldom find. Paul Paul, although small in stature, has proven during his college career, that mere size of body does not determine one ' s intelligence; for he has ever been among the highest in scholarship and honors. His field of achievement has been that of oratory and debating, in which arts he ranks at the top. One of his unique distinctions as a debater is that Wofford has never lost a debate in which Paul was a member of the team. We extend to him our sincere appre- ciation and gratitude for the remarkable and dis- tinguished service which he has rendered to our Alma Mater. In addition to those rare qualities which make a successful orator and debater, Paul possesses also the fine characteristics of a gentleman. His good com- mon sense and ready smile have made for him a wide circle of friends. With sadness and regret we tell Paul good-bye. His sincerity of purpose and loyalty to his friends have won for him a place in our hearts. In leaving us he goes to conquer greater fields, for we feel sure that he will be a victor in the battles of life. 51 ANDREW JOSEPH HARLEY ORANGEBURG, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Joe Joe is that type of man that makes himself liked by his fellows and idolized by those who cannot be called fellows. He is a congenial companion and a trustworthy friend. In his actions can be found noth- ing spectacular, for no one duty suffers because of neglect and his steadiness and regularity make all his duties easy. Although Joe is quiet and unob- trusive, yet there is something about him that makes him popular with all his associates. With his en- viable sense of humor, his tactfulness, congeniality, and firmness, Joe should make a wonderful success at whatever he undertakes; for since he possesses a magnetic personality, an agreeable manner, and a re- markable sincerity of purpose, how can he fail? The future has much in store for Joe, and we feel that in later years the world shall hear from him. 52 WALTER ZACHARIAH HEARSEY BLENHEIM, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Zach All who gaze at this semblance are sure to be im- pressed by the halo of intelligence emanating from it. Zach IS one of the brilliant men of the Class of ' 24. He has to study very little because his mind IS always alert. His sunny disposition and jolly manner make everybody want to be around him. Cap enjoys a liUle fun as much as anybody but he will not have anyone suffer because of his desire for fun. With his ready smile and jovial manner he has won a place in the hearts of all his associ- ates. To say that he is disliked by a single person even, would be doing this person an injustice, for anybody that is at all human will like Zach. As a personal friend, Zach is always loyal, faithful and free-hearted, always ready to help those whose friendship he enjoys. When he entered college those who beheld him thought that his was a hopeless case, but they were deceived by mere external impressions which so often leave a mistaken view. Chias ' has now developed and now possesses one of the keenest minds that has ever improved a campus atmosphere. All in all, Zach is every inch a man and we see great things for him in the future. 53 Q J ROBERT HAYNE HODGES CAMDEN, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Before reaching the aborigines, however, we would doubtless encounter Emersons and Ruskins and per- haps a Plato. But however that may be. Bob has a wealth of ideas, an appreciation of language, and a facile pen for which heredity or industriousness is to be praised. Bob usually has something to say too, for he is the philosopher of our class. We once thought he had a bad case of philosophy but he now seems to be recovering. Of Bob ' s many striking characteristics, there is one that stands out, and for it we shall always re- member him. It IS his power to say no when evil comes up. Bob stands for all that is good and right and honest. There is no higher type of true gentle- man in our class than he is, and we are proud of him. Bob is a true friend to those who know him, a good student, and a hard worker. 54 cholarship (1) (4 ; President, ■ irst Censor, Recording Secretary, Third C siir, Carlisle Literary Society; Varsity Baseball fer (3) 4); Varsity Tennis (1) (2) (4); Captain Tennis Team (2) ; Assistant Manager Bas- ket-balrt2) ; Class Football (2) (3) ; Coach Class Baseball (2); Vice-President 24), Secretary (2), Carlisle Hall Executive Committee; Member Presi- dents ' Club; Member Woffiord College Council; Member Block W Club ; M,ember-Athktic Ad- visory Board ; Advertising ' Manager Bohemian ; Secretary Senior Class; President (4), Treasurer (2), Spartanburg County Club.

Wilton If the degree of success which one attains in this world be in direct proportion to his sincerity and to his stern obedience to his convictions, then surely Wilton is destined to achieve great things. Although his educational career has been irregular, nevertheless his ability on the athletic field, his pro- ficiency in the class room, and his stimulatmg mflu- ence in the various literary activities have manifested themselves throughout his college life. And that is not all. It is rumored that Wilton ' s nature and disposition are not altogether repulsive to the gentler of the species. Nay, more than that, it has been whispered that he has begun concen- trating his energies, and that his efforts have been far from unsuccessful. But be that as it may, we are sure that life holds many good things for Wilton, and that his deserved success will surely come. 55 WILLIAM STANLEIGH HOOLE ' (X Li DARLINGTON, S.

' To he a well-favored man is ibe gift of Fortune. Bill . The above transcript of honors attests to Bill ' s popularity, as well as to his versatile ability. And search as we will through all the annals of Wofford men, never do we find one who could do more things better than he. We think of Bill primarily as an athlete. He has long been conceded the best punter in South Car- olina, and has also been mentioned for all-State honors in Football. His career of four years on the gridiron was fittingly crowned by his being chosen Captain in his last year; and, as Captain and Quarter, he piloted Wofford through her most successful season in recent years. And these are not all the laurels Bill has won. As a student, one ' s were the rule with him; as an influential membor of the Student Body, he was in- trusted with some of the highest honors to which a student may aspire; and in the sphere of those whose weapons are words and tears, his pathway has been strewn with the relics of romantic conquest. Bill has given us his best, and the best has come back to him. We are sure the qualities which won him favor in college will gain him success in the University of Life. May much success be yours. Bill, and all joy to you! 56 1 WILLIAM HERBERT HOPE, JR. c. i T OCK HILL, S. I ' AS , Candidate foi A. B.

He who nonis most speaks least. Pete From every standpoint, Pete ' s college career has been a successful one. He has participated in all the college activities — never specializing in any one branch. Loyalty to his Alma Mater and to his friends places him high in the esteem of the Student Body and Faculty. Pete possesses in his make-up all the rare qualities of a man. His sound common sense, sincere smile, and unusually good disposition, make him a student and a man, deserving the re- spect and admiration of all who know him. Not only has Pete been active in college life, but also he has had duties which, at times, directed his attention and interest to other things. Thus we may not pass as insignificant and unimportant the current rumor that he is in love. We congratulate that fair lady, because she has won a heart that is true, loyal and sincere. Pete is worthy of any woman and we rejoice in his happiness. It is with the most sincere and deepest regret we bid him farewell. But, like all Seniors, he has to go, in order that he may make for himself a place in the world. Pete takes with him our sincere confi- dence. 57 LAWRENCE EDWARD KING SUMTER, S. C. Candidate for A. B. Member Preston Literary Society. With mirth and laughter let old Tvrint{les come. A man with evidently a purpose in mind, and having few words to say, King has probably not been known among his fellow-students as he might have if such had been his intention. He was with us only two years, having completed the Freshman and Soph- omore classes several years previously. On those, however, who do know him, he has made the im- pression of a steady, substantial character, a gentle personality, and an optimistic, cheery disposition, ac- icepting life as it comes, neither grumbling, nor seek- ing more. He rejoined the Preston Literary Society on his return to college and has been active in society work, never shirking his duty, but performing it to the last articles. He stands well in scholarship, is studious and conscientious, and ever ready to lend his sup- port to the best interests on the campus. We are glad to have had King with us, and only wish that we might have enjoyed the pleasure of his company during the other two years of our college life as well. Although quiet and unobtrusive, he could always be depended upon for that pleasant smile and cheerful greeting. Whatever calling he follows in life, we wish for him the very best that it may hold. Such a character and personality, such earnestness and zeal, deserve a worthy reward. FURMAN JENKINS KNIGHT SUMTER, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

This Tvorld thai were a-Uving in Is mighty hard to beat; You get a thorn with every rose. But ain ' t the roses sweet? Red Several years ago came an auburn-haired youth from the east, as Young Lochinvar came out of the west. The title Red was brought with him from the jungles of Sumter, where the chief sport is dear hunting. But the Gamecock City is a Modern Utopia, if you listen to Red telling of its won- ders. In the classroom Red has shot Dune, Clink, and Billy to all corners of their respective rooms; but he ' s a shark in foreign languages. Outside the classroom, Red is a regular sheik when it comes to the fairer sex, who, if they ever hear him quote poetry, had better watch out. Red also is fond of journalism, which is to be his life ' s work, so he says. And as to the great outdoors, he is a regular sportsman with both gun and rod. As for military, he has camped in Ala- bam and Old Kaintuck for Uncle Sam, and now holds a commission in the Reserve Corps. Good luck to you. Pal, for we know you will succeed in any field of work. When to-day is but a memory, we will remember your happy smile and your persistent effort. 59r HARVEY DANIEL LEWIS gallivant ' s ferry, s. c. 2 A E, Candidate for A. B.

Do right, and fear no man ; Don ' t rvriie, and fear no rvoman. Slim Whether you call him Slim, H. D., Harvey, Joe, or one other pet name which for various reasons IS withheld, always the same jovial face appears. As a gloom cloud disperses, he is as Samson was to the Philistmes: There ' s none too large for him! When- ever he joms m the conversation you may rest as- sured that jokes will prevail. Truly his linguistic ability has the double guarantee to neither rip, wear, tear, run down at the heel, or go off half-cocked. He has endeared himself to every man on the campus by this one characteristic of constant friendliness; a friendliness that is always the same as it was yes- terday. As a scholar, he ranks among the first, as indicated by his ability to snatch the cov eted skin we love to touch in three years. This in itself is a feat that no ordinary man can accomplish. If any one sus- pects that he is a crip-hopper, kindly understand that History, Economics, and Political Science are indeed in another division. He has tackled the hardest subjects in the college curriculum, and each lime emerged with flying colors. Do not think, however, that studies have occupied all his spare moments, for that is only one phase of his college life. He has been a constant supporter of all the activities and interests of his Alma Mater, doing his bit whenever possible. Then loo, he has certain callings in a neighboring institution which re- quire a great deal of his time. The hours for these classes are: every afternoon and also every Saturday night. Some Shriek! Seriously, a man of his type is one who can endear himself to anyone who has as his ideals, truth, friend- ship, and an earnest desire to do the right thing always. Truth is but to know his actions; honor is but to know his character. 60 ri K , Candidate for A. B.

' Tis heller lo have lived and learned Than never lo have lived al all. Zero Whether or not he got the name Zero from the O in Oliver, we cannot say, but by this he has been popularly known lo us since his early college days. Through his athletic ability, this rather unique nickname has reached even beyond college circles. Recognized as one of the luckiest guys who ever played an infield position, or shot a basket-ball from mid-court, Zero has coupled with his luck ' a skill that comes from constant practice and an un- usual ability to do things well. The fact that he can remain steady and produce the necessary punch when the real test comes has won for Wofford sev- eral basket-ball games — and has earned for him the distinction of being mentioned among the greatest forwards in the South. Although never kept away from his social and other duties on account of his studies, Lindsay through his four years with us has displayed a sound knowledge of his courses. His alertness and quick wit, along with a most pleasing personality, have made him popular with everyone. 61 LeROY RICHARD LIVINGSTON ORANGEBURG, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

' Goat Here, in the noble features of this face, may be found a magnet that attracts every human being with whom its owner comes in contact. Although he comes from the wooded banks of the Edisto, Goat ' has lost all of his rural habits and ten- dencies, and has achieved quite a bit of success in the college military unit and in the classroom. As a friend, Goat is dependable and trust- worthy. He is big-hearted, loyal, and faithful. He very seldom lets his studies interfere with his col- lege life, but yet is always among those who rank high in the classroom. He has for his blessed pos- session the finer qualities of a man of worth. Goat never fails when literary, social, athletic, or scholastic duties call for men of action. Someone has said that Goat ' is nursing a wound inflicted by Dan Cupid; he will soon recover for he is a battle- scarred veteran in this respect. The Class of 24 predicts unbounded success for Roy in whatever profession he decides to enter, whether it be the army, or as Head of the French Department at some University. 62 LOUIE LANIER LOKEY AUGUSTA, GA.

' deep as elernit}) ; speech is shalloTv as Squire Squire, the lad with the curly hair, claims Augusta as his metropolis. In his quiet, unassuming manner, he has proved to be a man of merit. In the three years he has been with us we have found his character to be of sterling quality, his aims and ideals the best. He has been faithful and conscientious in his studies and has been rewarded accordingly; his sur- plus energy has been confined to class duties instead of athletics. If careful and consistent attention to college duties is an index to the future, we believe that success will attend Squire ' s efforts in whatever he may choose for his profession. Squire, we wish you good luck and may Augusta be proud to call you her son. 63 ELLIS AARON MANSHlp TATUM, S.

O. T. C. ' A cheerful disposition is a fund of real capital. E. The arrival of Ellis at Wofford Fittmg School early in 1920 created an unusual disturbance among the fair sex of the City of Success. After receiving a certificate from said institution, he entered the college for a better education, to get a Bachelor of Arts degree, and to master arts of other degrees. Although E. ' derived little from his career at the Fitting School, a decided improvement has been the result of his four years at Wofford. It took E. a long time to learn what he was at Wofford for; b ut after taking Dr. Pugh ' s Public Speaking ' and a few other strictly literary courses, he has made the Calhoun Literary Society a valuable man and has been recognized by the Society and elected Presi- dent for one of the terms, when the Society was greatly in need of an inspiring, ambitious, and thoughtful man. The main thing in E. ' s ' college career is his slanding in the social circles of the city; and it would be a discredit to call him anything less than a snake. As to the future life of Ellis, with his elaborate oratory, we predict that great things are in store for him. 64 PRESTON BROOKS MAYSON SALUDA, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

For four long years, since the advent of the Class of ' 24, Preston has been faithful lo his college, faithful to his duties, faithful to his principles and ideals, but primarily, faithful to the embodiment of them all, in a single feminine personality. Although not a Methodist, he realized rather early that this denomination might foster worthy in- stitutions. Having investigated the matter for a year at the Fitting School, he was more convinced than ever, and accordingly, in the fall of 1920 he cast his lot with the rest of us. His is a versatile nature, as will be noted from the fact that at one extreme of his college activities is the instruction of the Freshmen in Greek, and at the other, training in the gentle art of war, as Captain in the R. O. T. C. P. B. is whole-souled and enthusiastic. He gives his best in whatever he does, and awaits the outcome patiently. If the fates are against him, he is an excellent loser. For him we wish the best, suc- cess in all toward which he may strive; and surely, fair treatmgent from the world, which he, indeed, has treated fairly. f 65 MARSHALL LEROY MEADORS KINGSTREE, S. C.

Jack We hesitate before entering upon a description of the young man whose visage greets you from this page, for all the synonyms in our dictionary have failed to describe his conflicting personality. We will just jot it down in snatches. In the first place he has done more work this year than has any other man on the campus, not alone in the classroom, but in business school, and as the abused but most efficient editor of the Old Cold and Blacl(. He has taken this paper and raised it to the supremacy among college papers of the State, and has acquired an uncanny ability to sling the syllables around to his liking in the editorial column. On the Glee Club, as the most active officer of the Y. M. C. A., and ranking officer of the R. O. T. C, his activity has been stupenduous. Yet we must confess that we admire him not so much as we frankly like him. Friendly, never out of humor, irrevocably convinced of the beauty and nobihty of human nature, rather sentimental but adapted to practical affairs, he is an appealing per- sonality. His only faults are that he comes from the swamps of Williamsburg County, which he persists in calling the garden spot of the world; and that, try as hard as he can, he can never stay in love with the same girl longer than two months at a time. This last, however, may have been his saving trait. Jack is bound for happiness, if what is carried within one can obtain it, and likewise for fortune, if hard work and inherent ability can secure it. Those two things for which men most strive will certainly be his. 66 CARL BARNES MILLFORD RIDGE SPRING, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

When everything goes dead wrong. ' C. B. Another of those prodigies, a three-year man. While we have toiled for four years to experience the thrill of the skin we love to touch, C. B. has come in and turned the trick in one less. Beginning, as he did, with the curiosities of ' 25, he had some difficulties to overcome, but he emerged victorious and we are glad to welcome him among our number. His disposition is of the cheeriest, and one that might be envied by the best of us. Of courtesy, he is the embodiment; and had he no other worthy feature, this quality alone would win him admission into the closest rmg. Though probably unknown to the common herd, it is a fact that to the banjo, Millford is what Or- pheus was to the lyre. It is a pity that he did not take advantage of more opportunities to display his skill with this instrument of jazz. Let us add in closing, that Wofford College is making no mistake in bestowing the degree of B. A. here. We would, however, suggest in passing, that these letters are possible of still another interpreta- tion in addition to that usually applied. 67 JAMES MILTON McKNIGHT SPARTANBURG, S.

' Jimmie If you should ask us who the journalist of the Class of ' 24 is, we should at once respond, Jimmy Mc- Knisht, for he is the Henry Watterson, William Randolph Hearst, and Philip Gibbes of the class rolled mto one. His work on The Herald and in the Woiford College Journal is too well known to need comment, and the earnestness with which he has taught himself to write and speak evidence a persist- ence and ability which foretell for him a full and successful life. So much for his fame and future. What we are concerned about just now is the human and friendly boy whom we count one of our best friends. There is no more pleasant companion, more delightful personality than Jimmy, with his iudicious mixture of sound common sense and clear- cut humor. He is sociable and approachable, yet possessed of high personal dignity; he has a ready smile, but can be deadly in earnest when he is thor- oughly convinced that something is not as it should be; he is practical in his view of life in order to succeed, but has a fresh and invigovating trait of fighting to the last ditch for his established ideals. He is rather conservative, as a good substantial editor should be, but not narrow; and the only fault we can find in him is that he is not a lover of poetry. It may be, however, that at some day, most likely in the spring of the year, he will rouse this dormant taste, because his fancy by them will have turned as does the mind of most young men. He is going into the newspaper game, for which by talent, training, and taste, he is most eminently fitted; and knowing him as we do, we can sincerely say that we believe that he will prove a source of pride lo all his friends. 68 RALPH SEER OWINGS JOHNSTON, S.

Ralph Behold, ladies and gentlemen, of the Class of ' 24! the Beau Brummel Some call him a tea-hound; others, a divan ace; still others, a coupe cooer; but all the fair ones agree on one pomt, viz. : Ralph, by any other name, is, like the red, red rose, just as sweet. Although he is conceded the highest authority in the college on current styles in men ' s ready-to-wear, and although he is a familiar landmark around the Elite almost any afternoon, we cannot divorce Ralph m our minds from feminine topics, for several reasons. One of these hails from the neighboring village of Greenville; most of the others are from the environs of Converse. In fact, there is nothing Ralph would rather hear than the hoot of owls on Converse Campus. But we are by no means setting these facts down as faults of his, gentle reader; if is his nature to love pretty women, and he is no more responsible for this trait of his than for the color of his eyes, or the place of his birth. We wish him well, and venture one prediction in parting: If he remains a bachelor, it will be from choice (of some lady). 69 HUGH WANNAMAKER PERROW ST. MATTHEWS, S. C. B Candidate for A. B.

Peru has been here only three years, and the Junior Class is proud to see him graduate by means of his determined will to conquer ; but they also feel the loss of such a classmate from the Class of ' 25. Peru is a friend and a pal to everybody that he comes in contact with. Now, among the ladies, he is a vamp, and always has them guessing. They never can tell whether they know him or not. Considering his career, both literary and social, he has been successful to a high degree. He leaves us with our best wishes for a sutcess in his chosen profession. 70 JAMES MILTON PITTS, JR.

Kid Kid, a true and warm-hearted friend to every- one in college, first started his career with the insti- tution at Wofford Fitting .School. After graduating fro m there with high honors he entered Wofford College. His wonderful personality and warm smile soon made him a host of friends among the stu- dents. James Milton does not participate in college ath- letics; for his social activities and other college duties will not allow him lime for this part of college life. He IS not a genius at shooting the professors, but hard work and persistence have enabled him to come out on lop in his studies. We all expect Kid to have a brilliant career out in the world in anything he undertakes. By all laws of nature he will succeed. His steady char- acter and winning personality mixed with a well- trained mind will cause him to come out on top in any project he attempts to promote. I J CECIL HOLCOMBE POOLE ENOREE, S. C.

Cecil On September 16th, 1920, Cecil entered Wofford as a member of the distinguished Class of 24. He began to make friends immediately, and to-day his friends are all who know him. They are not con- fined to the college circle, but he has friends every- where. Cecil has not taken an active part on the athletic field, but we can ' t put this to his discredit, because he has proved to be a real man. He has shown in class that he has a strong practical mind, by both answering and asking great and difficult questions. His work for the first three years was such that he needed only seven hours during his Senior year. This excellent work has continued throughout his college career. Cecil, you have won a warm place in our hearts, and we hate to say farewell Io you, but we know that sooner or later we must part, and since to-day is the day, we join in a chorus to wish for you an exceedingly bright and prosperous future. 72 JAMES CARLISLE PORTER LANCASTER, S.

Not failure, but loiv aim, is crime. Slim The thriving young city of Lancaster can con- sider itself honored by having Slim as its repre- sentative, for he is a worthy representative of any town. He has the qualities of a real man so clearly combined in his soul as to make him a staunch, true friend of all his classmates. His size, physically, is indeed a true index lo a largeness of heart, gener- osity, and good nature; and his hearty handclasp is a thing to be desired and esteemed by all his friends. His abilities are not limited to classroom and liter- ary work, but on the athletic field he has a record of which Wofford can justly be proud. For three years he has been a member of the terrier grid team and in no minute of any game can it be said that he was not doing his very best. The Student Body is the loser by his going but the world gains. 73 11 ' VIRGIL WRIGHT RINEHART LEESVILLE, S. C. YezdikKast, Candidate for A. B.

Shug In the fall of 1920 there miraculously appeared in our class a young lad who was direct from the jungles of Saluda County; this lad was no other than Virgil Rinehart. Virgil was indeed a fresh- man ; but of course time brings about great changes. After a short time in our class he was favored with the nickname of Shug. Indeed Shug has a quiet and genial disposition and to know him is to like him. During his college career he has made many friends, true and sincere, who wish him suc- cess in life. Shug never took any part in college athletics but nevertheless he has always been a loyal supporter of his Alma Mater. He spent most of his leisure time with the fair sex and he has been a real hit with The City of Success dames, b..l it is rumored that he has a girl in the old home town who has complete control of his affections. We have no idea as to what Shug intends to do as a life work, but no matter what it may be, we have no doubt that his sterling character, winning personality and broad mind will reward him with success. Virgil, the Class of ' 24 wishes ' yon luck! 74 URRA OB lTS GREENVILLE, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Ben Benjamin Murray is his name, but he is better known to us as Robbie or Ben. He is remark- able for three things. One is the social atmosphere which he creates in the presence of young ladies; another is his athletic ability which has been shown throughout his college career. And last, his truest virtue is his self-assertiveness, with which he attacks and overcomes any question up for discussion. Of the intangible things that go to make up a man — Robbie possesses an attractive and winning personality, a sunshiny and congenial disposition, and all the attributes of a true gentleman. Therefore, we predict for Ben a glowing future. With his ability to make friends and to keep them, a keen mind and a winning, straightforward manner, he is equipped to go out into the world and conquer. 75 i is JOSEPH HOWARD ROGERS ROEBUCK, S. C.

Joe Joe, or the gentleman from Roebuck, as he is sometimes called, came to us after a preparatory course at the Fitting School. Joe has the name of being one of the best dressed Seniors on the campus, and his glossy black hair has won the envy of many a Freshman. Joe was another victim of Dr. Trawick ' s per- sonality, taking all of the courses in Religious Edu- cation. Jimmie s courses seem to have an attrac- tion for him also. Joe has made many friends during his college career and Wofford will miss his presence on the Campus. We don ' t know Joe ' s profession, but we are sure that he will make a successful career for himself in whatever vocation he exercises his per- sonality and menial abilities. 76 ROSCOE ROBERT ROGERS COLUMBIA, S.

Do your duty, and do it well; What more can anyone do? Roscoe Just four short years ago the pride of the Capital City by the Consaree, made his appearance in the City of Success. Since then his smiling counte- nance and wonderful personality have made him a friend to all. Roscoe is of the magnetic type, alvi ays willing and always able to do that which is best. In athletics his accomplishments have been many. As captain of the basket-ball team, we find him a bril- liant leader. In basket-ball, as in everything else, he works not for personal glory but for the good and advancement of the team. Among the ladies, Roscoe is what is generally known as a Snake. His genial smile seems to captivate them. His greatest trouble is to keep them away long enough to attend to his college duties. At present, however, he seems to have plenty of time to pay especial attention to one of the queenly beauties of Converse. In life, who could but predict success for Roscoe His past accomplishments ran but point to one thing. In the future we see the kindly star of success rising to lead him to fame and contentment. 77 f, AUGUSTUS CARL SESSIONS CONWAY, S. C. Candidate for A. B. Member Snyder Literary Society; W. F. S.

South Carolinians, who live along the coast, speak a language all their own, and this de- l ightful form of brogue finds a perfect interpreter in this member of our class. You will enjoy hearing him talk, but most important of all, your heart will warm to him when you hear what he has to say. A truly big-hearted boy, with high ideals, we have found him to be. Gus is Captain Hardee s right hand man and when we are in bad with Cap ' n, ' no one can in- tercede so successfully for us as can he. Whether Carl becomes a country squire or a suc- cessful merchant in Conway will be decided by his counsellor and guide. Whatever profession she may choose for him, we know that he will fill it well and honorably. 78 3Ci EUGENE OLIVER SHEALY DORCHESTER, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

After three years of army life, one of which was spent with the famous 30th in France, having edu- cational ambitions, Shealy spent two years at Car- lisle, then came to us. He has consistently and intelligently applied him- self, not to the point of becoming a bookworm, but sufficiently to stand high in the regard of the faculty, and to finish in three years. Shealy is an example of what may be called one hundred per cent effi- ciency; but, although of very studious habits, he is the most versatile member of his class. In his less serious moments, we may find him discussing such subjects as Evolution, or The Changing Morality of Women. As a pastime, he writes short stories and sports for our publications. But his greatest ability is possibly shown m keeping up a flourish- ing correspondence with fifteen or twenty girls. A lady ' s man, and a man ' s man, may well de- scribe Eugene. He has all the better qualities of the two. It IS easy to write good things about Eugene Shealy, for he is a student, a gentleman, and a friend; dignified, frank, and generous. We must now part, but we feel that our loss will be the enrichment of the ministerial profession. 79 HARMON BURGESS SPROTT . 1 MANNING, S. C. 2 A E, Candidate for A. B.

We see in him a man who is always faithful to his duties, loyal to his ideals, true to his friends. His genial disposition and his sterling qualities have en- deared him to many on the campus. During his four years at Wofford, Buck has displayed rare ability in more ways than one. His rich tenor has added much to the Glee Club. His being President of the Snyder Literary Society tes- tifies to the high quality of his literary work. Judg- ing from his success at college, we can predict for him a sure ascent to the crest of high achievement. 80 JOSEPH EDWARD SPROTT MANNING, S. C. S A E, Candidate for A. B.

Things are going to happen — why worry? Everything comes to him who wails — why hurry? ' Joe Manning, S. C, has been no mean contributor to the alumni of Wofford. She has sent many sons to our Alma Mater, but of none of them has she more reason to be proud than of our present subject. Joe is one hundred per cent a ' 24 man. He started as did the rest of us, faced the trials of col- lege life with us, and weathered the storm as some of us have not. Easy-going and steady, attending to his own affairs, he has mixed with all, sought the injury of none, and indeed been a true classmate. Though he makes no voluble professions, beneath his quiet acceptance of things, there lie principles on which his life is based. He is a man that one might tie to, a ship that will hold straight to its course, de- spite the surge of circumstance. The organization on the campus which he has chiefly benefited is the Glee Club. For four years Joe has toured the State with Woffo d ' s musicians, and for four years blended his voice with the sweet, melodious tenors. Here, indeed, will he be sorely missed. Advanced by his personality, guided by his principles, success is his. Joe, your classmates wish you well. m 81 fe Senior Order of Gnomes; Distinction in Scholar- ship (1) (2) (3) (4); President Student Body; Vice-President Junior Class; Advertising Manager W afford College Journal; Asst.

In fact, just among ourselves, we believe that deep down in his deep heart there is space set aside for some fair damsel. We have heard that Fatty spends his leisure moments in composing verse about his dream girl. But however that may be, Fatty has not al- lowed sentimentality to interfere with his college work. Allen is what Is commonly known as an all-round student. He is an athlete, a scholar, and an able speaker. His versatile ability, and his genial disposition have won for him many honors at Wofford, one of the srealest of which is the presidency of the Student Body. Judging from this splendid college record, we are confident that the future holds only success for him. THOMAS HENRY STOKES CHESTER, S. C. d S Candidate for A. B.

Tom was a diminutive freshman; imme- diately he began to participate in all college activi- ties and to-day we behold a scholar, and one of the outstanding leaders of the Senior Class. He has a high character, a pleasing sense of huinor, and a congenial disposition. This rare combination has won for him a host of friends. Tom worked faithfully on the gridiron and basket- ball court, and was manager of the Varsity football team. If his diplomatic genius as President of the Carlisle Hall Executive Committee were applied to Mexico or the Philippines, peace and harmony would be guaranteed. Tom is not in love. But he has a habit of going to Converse. It was there that he discovered his inclination to music, and the beauty of the Spanish air, La Paloma, picked from the enchanted strings of the Mandolin Club. 83 JOSEPH WESLEY STOKES BAMBERG, S.

Though he resembles Charlie Chaplin, he is none other than our friend and classmate, Wesley Stokes. Wesley is unquestionably the social leader of the Class of ' 24, and has added popularity unlimited in this world. This Terpsichorean genius is viewed with admiration as he gracefully glides and shuffles those loose, light feet across the mirrored space of the ballroom floor. However, Stokes has not showed any special in- terest in athletics; yet he has stood well in the class- room and the literary society, and his four years of work are of such a calibre that he has justly and faithfully earned that long-courted sheepskin. And so, with his charming personality, sentimental nature, his keen sense of humor, and his alert mind, he has won a host of friends who predict for him the greatest success. 84 ERASMUS HARDIN STRICKLAND CLIFTON, S.

Red Erasmus, otherwise known as Red, is especially remarkable for two things; one is the exterior vege- tation which adheres to his cranium, and the second is his genial good nature. Coupled with this good nature is a kindliness, a friendliness, and a spirit of generosity which has endeared Red to us, and made for him many friends on the campus. Red IS a good sport, ready for anything and everything and always ready to help a fellow out. We don ' t know, but we suspect the appeal and charm of his personality comes from his big heart which is hidden somewhere in his one hundred and seventy pounds. We predict for Red a happy life, and we be- lieve any crisis which the future may bring will find him on the side of right. 85 S A E Candidate for A. B.

Jack If it took a breeze to blow the Ma )flower to America, it must have required a whole storm to guide this brainy being to Wofford Campus. Choppy, as he is known by friends, came to us in the fall of nineteen-twenty, and during his four years spent here has yet to experience a 3 as a grade in any classroom. It may truly be said of him that he possesses all the requirements of a real scholar. The old saying that No minutes bring us more content than those in useful studies spent, can be applied to him easily. Choppy was not an athlete, but was one of the most ardent supporters of Old Gold and Black that the college can boast. His one aim throughout his collegiate course was the development of the Calhoun Literary Society, and partly through his own efforts this society ex- perienced the most prosperous year of its entire his- tory. Jack leaves an enviable record behind him. It IS one unstained and unsoiled, through four years of honest and conscientious work. He is a scholar, a friend and a gentleman! What more can be said of any man? A man like this numbers his friends by the score for really to know him is to love him. We hear that he is determined to study medicine, so we can only look forward to seeing him a real asset to the medical world. Men of his type know only success. There is only one doubt about his graduation into the medical world; and that is, if he is able to prevent the wedding bells from ringing too soon. 86 SAMUEL CLARENCE TURBEVILLE TURBEVILLE, S. C.

Then would 1 live forever. TURBY We can never forget Turby ' s name or address, for his name is S. C. Turbeville and he hails from Turbeville, S. C. Judging the town by its product we would picture it as an exceedingly live town, with a speed limit around sixty miles an hour, with a spacious pavilion at one end, and with a thoroughly up-to-date vaudeville show at the other. We also imagine that farmers in that neighborhood do then plowing from ten in the morning until undetermined hours at night. Although the Volstead Act is not very rigidly enforced there, we are predicting that if the town keeps pace with its scion it will be the most prosperous and well-known in the State. Yes, Turby is all right. A cheerful disposition is one of his greatest assets. His motto is well se- lected for surely worry never changed his smile to a frown. We all look for Turby when we get the blues, because the tonic effect of that smile is a certain cure. His winning ways and his habit of seeing the bright side of every situation will bring happiness to him in life. 87 WILLIAM LAURENS WALKER, JR, CEDAR SPRING, S. C. K 2, Candidate for A. B.

He has done this by his wonderful record m Wofford as a student, as an athlete, and a man ' s man; and I might also add, as a ladies ' man. Walker is one of the boys most popular in the two colleges of the city, in both of which he is universally known. It is also rumored that he is rather well known on Pine Street, and that he has one especially intimate friend who dwells at the end of Pine. As Laurens has shown his unusual talent and ability in every phase of college life, both in the capacity of a leader, and a follower, it cannot be doubled that he will also become one of the leading citizens of the State. Therefore, you will hear from Walker time and again through life. A, ti ARL WHARTON WALLACE GRAY COURT, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Many of us are proud lo know Dune as a friend. Quiet and unassuming, yet always depend- able, tie has found a place in our hearts which can- not be easily filled. It is sufficient lo say that we will miss him. We wish and predict for him every success that life has lo offer. His friendly nature and ready smile are the surest of safeguards against the trials and obstacles which one must encounter in the game of ife. Of two things we are certain: he will play the game fairly, and in the end he will win. 89 LeROY CALHOUN WEISS INGER BLACKVILLE, S. C. Candidate for A. B.

Life consists not in holding a §ooil hand but in placing a poor hand TvcU. Speedy Calhoun, better known as Speedy, in some circles, required only three years at Wofford to earn his sheepskin. We can offer two explana- tions for this. First, he received excellent prepa- ration at Carlisle. Second, and without doubt most logical, he possesses an exceptionally high degree of intelligence. Though not a bookworm, he has man- aged to mix business and pleasure in such a way as to receive the best results from each. We notice that he has been especially partial to the different sciences, such as Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. He has taken Dr. Waller up and down; and his associations with Peg have been the source of much comment. Whether or not he intends to apply this scientific knowledge to some particular work, we do not know. Regardless of what he undertakes, however, his hosts of friends are confident that his life will be a complete success. 90 BROADUS BERTRAND WHITLOCK SPARTANBURG, S. C.

B. B, The Class of ' 24 is proud of this native son of Spartanburg. For four years we have listened to B. B. ' s good-natured philosophy and have profited by contact with his sunny disposition. We have never known him to be down-hearted or without his characteristic good humor and friendly smile. We regret to part with him. It is because of people like B. B. that we have come to love the City of Success. While with us, he has made a host of friends and no enemies. Whitlock has made an enviable record in his classroom work and also in many of the other ac- tivities. Although B. B. is too small to be an athlete, he is a loyal fan and has a fighting spirit. He has excelled in literary society work and has time and time again starred in Public Speaking. Nor shall we ever forget how heartlessly he has shot Jimmie. We predict for B. B. the greatest success. We believe that he will touch the top in his chosen profession. He is both a student and a gentleman. 91 ROBERT VANCE WILLIAMS SPARTANBURG, S, C. y CajjJkJale for A. B.

Life is hui an emply dream. Speedy My friends, high purpose and determination have crowned the above solemn countenance with the garlands of achievement since he entered the halls of learning. Coming from Spartanburg High, with a record for scholastic attainment and athletic prowess, Speedy has become endeared to us all, both by his ability and by his kindly qualities of character. He is versatile as his honors testify; he is gentlemanly and able as his records prove. Will ambition ever desire more? Lately, a rumor has become current on the campus that Speedy, slowly but surely, has had his coun- tenance illuminated by the light of love of one whom it is claimed is fair beyond compare. Evidence as to this, however, has been lacking even to his inti- mate friends, but they well know that still water usually runs deep. Well, we wish him success in love and business as the fruits of his character and labors. 92 I Member, First Critic, Preston Literary Society; Member Williamsburg County Club; Member Flor- ence County Club; Treasurer Georeelown County Club; Member R.

He came to us in the fall of 1920 from the undiscovered wilds be- tween Hemingway and Georgetown. As Baker is naturally timid and retiring, he re- mained for a long time in our midst undiscovered. However, such a personality as his could not remain hidden for long. As the years unfolded, we came to know him as he really is, a man of high character, sunshiny dis- position, and ever faithful to his ideals of right, one who has contributed his share to the enrich- ment of the glorious Class of ' 24. Baker, ' tis true, has won no athletic laurels or lit- erary fame, but he is indeed an earnest lad who has gained the true respect of all those who know him. Baker ' s fame does not end here; he is a pianist of rare ability — yea, even unto being a rival of Pade- rewski. He renders to perfection his favorite pieces, Barney Google, and the Sextette from Lucia. Baker, we are going to miss you. The Class of ' 24 wishes for you every success in whatever you may undertake. 93 nil ' ii OLIN FELDER WOLFE JAMISON, S. C. Candidate for A. B. Member of Snyder Literary Society, Three Year Club.

While there he was noted for his excellence in all lines of literary endeavor, and since coming here has not departed one whit from his path toward literary fame. This is w ell-proved by the almost unlimited number of ones made by him during his three years here. Owing to his previously arranged plan of finishing in three years, Felder found his hands full and therefore could not take part in any athletics. But there were few games that did not find him on the side lines yelling lustily for the Terriers. Wolfe is not a ladies ' man — this is his own state- ment — but we are not to be fooled and silently agree that somewhere one of the fairest awaits him. Knowing him as we do, we can predict him in his chosen profession only the greatest success, which always comes to a true and earnest worker. 94 7. MAVCCa,M CARR WOODS Jj MARION, S. C.

Malcolm, or Mai as he is sometimes called, is truly the prodigy of our class in addition to being a member of the Three Year Club; and having made distinction for all three years, he bears the addi- tional honor of being the youngest member of the Class of ' 24. In spite of his years, however, Malcolm possesses all of the finer qualities that go toward the make-up of a real man. His piloting of the Junior Ship of State across the rough financial stram through which she recently passed will never be forgotten (sacred to the memory of the ' 25 class rings). It is with sincere regret, Malcolm, that we see you depart, for even though you have been with us but three years, you have won a place m our hearts, both students and faculty. May Fate deal you only thai which is best in your life ' s undertakings. 1 d Hd ' I 95 EDGAR CHARLESWORTH WRIGHTSON, JR. SPARTANBURG, S. C. Candidate for A. B. Member Preston Literary Society; Gle Spartanburg County Club; Hastoc Club. Club; Horn this spring of love resembletb The uncertain glory of an April day; Which now shows all the beauty of the sun. And by and by a cloud talfes all away. Ed After a three-year course at Hastoc, Ed came to Wofford to display his menial abilities; and he did. Forced to come up to the reputation set by two brothers who had preceded him, Edgar studied hard during his college career and made a record to be proud of. During his four years ' slay with us, Ed has made numerous friends among ihe student body and with the faculty, especially Dr. Tiawick. Edgar fell in love with Dr. Trawick as soon as the be- loved teacher set his foot on the campus in 1922, and since then has taken all of Dr. Trawick ' s sub- jects. Edgar is undecided at present as to what profession he will lend his personality and energies to, but whatever business he lakes up, we know that Ed will make a successful career for himself. 96 History of the Senior Class HE CLASS OF ' 24 began its unusual career by being the largest class that had ever entered Wofford. On September 20, 1 920, we came to- gether from our homes to bring into being the Class of ' 24. When first we met, the casual observer would have noted nothing out of the ordi- nary save our unusual number come together as a class; but with the pass- ing of time the faculty, the student body, the Class of ' 24 itself, have come to realize that this class is one of which the college will one day be proud. Our classmates are beginning, already to note with pride that they belong to the Class of ' 24. Why, you ask, do we feel as we do? We may best answer this query, perhaps, by reciting a little of the history of this class. In debate, the record of the Class of ' 24 had been unusual. Our Freshman year we furnished six Freshman intercollegiate debaters: W. R. Bourne, N. B. Arledge, N W Bennett, M. L. Meadors, B. P. Ramsay, and A. M. Taylor. Our Sophomore year, N. W. Bennett and Paul Hardin debated for us. Our Junior year, these two men and M. L. Meadors represented us in more than one debate. Our Senior year, M. B. Wilson N. W. Bennett, and Paul Hardin won an unanimous decision against Emory University in debate. In the triangular debate with Newberry and P. C, these same men and R. H. Hodges represented us. As this goes to press, all the varsity debaters so far this year have been members of the Senior Class. We have furnished at least a third of the debaters who have represented the college in our four years here. To our class belongs the distinction of changing the Sophomore Declamation Con- test to the Sophomore Oratorical Contest. In our Junior year, Paul Hardin, who was chosen to represent the college at Greenwood, won second place in the State Oratorical Contest. This year, Paul Hardin again speaks at Greenwood. In the athletic contest between classes, our class has won the championship in fully half the sports since we have been here. In the intercollegiate athletic contests Pike Berry, Tom Brice, F. T. Gibson, Oliver Lindsay, B. Rhame, N. W. Bennett, Roscoe Rogers W. M. Holcombe, Ben Robinson, J. M. Bailey, Lawrence Walker, Ed Collins, J M Porter, Joe Crawford, J. A. Batson, E. H. Strickland, Tom Gait, D. L. Brown, R. V. Williams, Bill Gentry, T. H. Stokes, Bill Begg, and A. M. Copeland have rep- resented us. We have had several captains: O. Lindsay, of basket-ball; W. S. Hoole, of football; F. T. Gibson, of football; N. W. Bennett, of track; J. A. Batson, of base- ball; and Roscoe Rogers, of basket-ball. Some statistics will show us part the Class of ' 24 has taken in athletics. Last year, seven of the fourteen baseball players were members of our class, nine out of eleven basket-ball players, and nine members of the football squad. This year, seven of the ten basket-ball players belong to us, nine members of the football squad, and, as this goes to press, it seems likely that six members of the baseball team will belong to the Class of ' 24. Members of our class have won fully half of the prizes and medals given since we have been in college. 97 On the Glee Club we have always been well represented. In scholarship the record of the Class of ' 24 is, we believe, unparalleled in the his- tory of Wofford College. At the end of the first term of our Sophonnore year. Dr. DuPre read from the platform the names of all men who had made a grade of 90 per cent or above in all subjects. Of the eleven men in college, eight were members of our class. Although we have lost many men, we have one man who has made no less than 90 per cent m any subject durmg his college course, one man who has made only one mark below 90, and two men who have made no grade below 90 since their Freshman year. We have other men who stand high m scholarship and we are justly proud of our class in this particular. Our class officers were: FRESHMAN YEAR CLYDE WARD, President J. N. HOLCOMBE, Secretary F. T.

Hodges, Historian. 98 Senior Class Prophecy tg AVING won the Vandilingsburg case, and feeling that a vacation was due, 1 decided lo take an extensive trip and look up all my college chums of the memorable Class of ' 24. ' j M ' Some I had not seen since commencement, about twenty-five years ago; others I had Ig seen more recently. Scrinch Fuller, for instance, with whom I had been closely asso- LL S S ciated in the law office ever since we went to Washington together; and B. E. Elks, who had made a name for himself in the diplomatic service, and who made his home m Washing.on also, when not away m the service of his country; and B. B. Wh.tlock, another °ld class- mate, who was our law firm ' s greatest rival, had been my constant companions. B. B. has offices in Washington and New York and has earned an enviable reputation, owing to the class of the cases wtiich he takes. r r j L Before leaving the city I was delighted to receive a very valuable pass from Joe Crawford, wtio was head of a chain of theaters with houses all over the United States. I took an early morning train out of Washington for Spartanburg, and was overjoyed to find that I had been assigned to a section which was already occupied by David Brown David had been elected to the chair of Astronomy and higher Mathematics at Harvard, and was on his way to South Caroima to visit the scenes of his childhood. We began to talk of college days and mutual friends and t was much surprised to learn that poor old Bob Hodges hadn ' t been heard of for over fifteen years. Some girl disappointed him, he was driven to drmk, and disappeared. But .1 was rumored that lie had be come a tower of strength somewhere in South America. ' Professor Edwards, so David told me, had been given the chair in History at Cornell. Those of us who knew h.m and remembered him in Ur. Walla ' ce ' s classes had already predicted such a future. I also learned from David that our old buddy Sue Hope, was proprietor of one of the largest department stores in the State, the management ot which he now entrusted to his seven manly sons, all Wofford graduates. Upon reaching Spartanburg, I was met at the Terminal Station by Laurens Walker, mayor and big dog of the town. I had kept in touch with Laurens and so already knew of his success. After a brief rest we went over to inspect the old institution of which we were so justly proud and with which we connected so many pleasant memories. Imagine my astonishment and ,oy when 1 found that Shake Bennett, because of his scholarship and eloquent oratory, had been prevailed upon to drop his law practice and become president of his Alma Mater. I congratulated both him and the college. When I inquired as to who was in charge of athletics and was informed that Bill Hoole was head h, I readily understood how Wofford had turned out a championship football team for seven con- coach secutive years. I must confess that I was rather surprised to find that L. L. Lokey was head of the Enghsh depart- ment, but I had half expected to find Izy Floyd professor .of Physics. Nor was I disappointed. Izzy, I was told by an outraged sophomore, was the hardest professor on the campus to pass. As I entered the old chapel I was struck bv the three beautiful pictures hanging above the rostrum. These original works of art had been presented to the college by N. C. Bouzard, of Bohemian fame in his younger days. Buzz was now world famous. During chapel it was announced that Bishop A. J. Cauthen, none other than young Andrew Jackson Jr., of the days of ' 24, would preach at Central Church on Sunday morning. The students were urged to attend, and of course I couldn ' t afford to miss that myself. As I was walking down town during the afternoon, I happened to strike up with A. C. Sessions who was passing through on his way to an insurance convention. When we parted he advised me to took at a Chautauqua poster which he had previously noticed. I did, and was dumfounded to find niy old classmate, J. L. Foster, masquerading under a new title, that of Psychological Humorist. His lecture was one of the biggest attractions on the program. Ever curious, I decided to call on Fatty Stokes, who was also in line for a Bishoporic, but was at present pastor of Central Church. We had a long chat and from him I learned the later history of a few more of the old pals. Jimmie Bailey had learned the mill business from the ground up and had then gone to South America, wfiere manufacturing was being rapidly developed. His success had been remarkable. 99 0 R. L. Anderson had slailed out as a civil engineer, but had gotten cold feet and gone into the shoe business. He was now the authority on footwear in the South. J. A. Batson had become manager of the New York Yankees, and the way in which he had cleaned out the graft in baseball had earned for him an enviable reputation. Lawrence Curry, in some inexplicable manner had been attracted by Georgia prospects and had gone there to live. He was now the head of a happy family and owner of the largest peach orchard in the State. Roscoe Rogers had become Southern Distributor for Dodges and was quite proud of an old relic which he still possessed, and which he claimed would still run as fast or slow as it ever did. I also leained from Fatty that his twin brother, Tom, had been inspired by Uncle Dan ' to take up Mmeralogy and Geology; and that Dr. Stokes, upon whom numerous degrees had been conferred, was now the supreme authority on rocks, volcanoes, earth formation, etc. E. O. Shealy had taken to the ministry, but had later given up his charge to become an evangelist; and by his earnestness and eloquence, had caused thousands of men and women all over the country to repent and hit the sawdust trail. H. B. Sprolt, Buck to those of us who knew him, was now the outstanding tenor of New York opera, and was scheduled to sing in Spartanburg during the coming May Festival. J. H. Rogers now handled all the real estate transactions of importance, I was informed. His latest big sale had been the Montgomery building, which was begun during our last year at Wofford. Having talked Fatty almost to death, I decided to try to extract further information from my old f riend, Eddie Collins. I was admitted into Ed ' s luxurious private office in the rear of his mag- nificent clothing establishment; and, seated in comfortable chairs, we wandered off into reminiscences. Zack Hearsey had married some girl for her money, but had later decided that he didn ' t want the money if he had to have the girl, too; so he had gone to Paris to get a divorce. There, inspired by his artistic surroundings, he had given free reign to his desire to write. Both his prose and poetry had been universally accepted. Slim ' Porter, I discovered, had also followed his writing and instructive talents and was the author of a very popular book entitled Eat More and Grow Thinner. ' Mac Blackwood had purchased Arthur Murray ' s business, along with his good will, and now guided the dancing feet of the nation into new steps every week. Bill Bege, scho ' ar extraordinary, was now president of Converse College, and had become famous by his discovery of two new Astronomical laws. Joe Harley had challenged William Hope, Jr., for the 18.2 balk-line billiard championship of the world, and had beaten him at odds of six to one. Joe had then, as an example to the younger man, given him back his money. I was much surprised to find that Baker Wilson was owner and leader of the most popular dance orchestra in the United States. I was rather shocked to hear that Baker had recently fought to the last ditch a law which would prohibit Sunday dancing. E. W. Wallace, I was informed, had retired from the ring with the enviable record of never having been knocked off his feet. He had stepped into Tex Rickard ' s shoes and was now manager of the old Madison Square Garden. Milne- Wil son had been elected to the United States Senate, where his wonderful gift of oratory and his ability to reason fast and clearly had made him a dominating figure and a terror to the Repub- lican party. After 1 eaving the Collins Emporium, I bought a copy of the Spartanburg Times, which was owned by R. V. Williams and had the largest circulation of any paper in the State. Speedy had risen rapidly. As I glanced over the paper I noticed two items of especial interest. Colonel M. L. Meadors had been promoted to the rank of general in the United States Army. Remembering Jack ' s efficiency in the R- O. T. C. unit at Wofford, his promotion did not surprise me in the least. I also noticed that W. M. Hoi combe ' s new twenty-six story hotel had been completed. The Holcombe was modern and up-to-date in every detail and was situated on the corner of Main and Pine, in the heart of the business district. That night in the hotel I met up with L. H. Cox and C. B. Millford. Harry, having bought up several thousand acres of farm land, had turned planter. He was in Spartanburg to see about a ship- ment of cotton. Car! had been attracted by his own ability and had become a handwriting expert. 100 Having testified in hundreds of forgery cases, he was known all over the country and his profession had been very profitable indeed. We talked until late into the night and from them I learned many inter- esting facts concerning other of my old classmates. Carl had seen Tommy Gali a month before when the U. S. S. Alabama put into the navy yard for repairs. Tom hadn ' t been able to resist the call of the sea and was now in command of Uncle Sam ' s newest super-dreadnaught. A. F. Graham was now the millionaire head of a chain of college canteens, and had put hundreds of boys through school by giving them good jobs with big pay and little work. S. C. Turbeville had built a large cotton mill and put Turbeville on the map. His generous idea of dividing three-fourths of the stock among the mill hands was proving very successful. Zero Lindsay had coached the Cornell basket-ball team for fifteen years, and was now the final authority in that sport. To make his mythical all-American team was the highest honor that could be given to a player. R. S. Owings was the most prominent lawyer of Greenville, a little town of some twenty-five thousand inhabitants near Spartanburg, and stood a good chance of being elected governor m the coming election. C. H. Poole still had the rent-collecting habit, and owned several of the city ' s best apartment houses. E. P. Arant had become one of the country ' s most noted Latm scholars. His Beginners ' Latin Grammar was now used in all the public schools of the State. • J. W. Tarrant ' s dream had materialized and he was now one of the leading surgeons of the United States. Jack had just recenlly built one of the finest and best equipped hospitals in Muscle Shoals, Ala. His love for motors had drawn A. H. Fort into the aviation game. He was now general manager of the Trans-Allantic Co., whose giant Zeppelins had superceded steamships. E. H. Strickland, belter known to us as Red, had responded to the lure of the screen by going into the movies. Red s splendid work in Bloody Sand, a sequel to Rodolph Valentino ' s old pic- ture, Blood and Sand, had placed him in the very front rank of screen idols. A. M. Copeland had been president of the First National Bank for the last seven or eight years. Monty ' s prudence and foresight, coupled with extraordinary executive ability, had made him an out- standing figure in the banking world. L. C. Weissinger has gone abroad to complete his studies. While there he accepted the chair of English in one of the German Universities. At present he was touring America and his lectures on European conditions were exciting very favorable comment. Ed Wrightson, of Glee Club fame, had gone on the stage. His remarkable voice had easily carried him to the top, and he was recognized as one of the most gifted actors in American opera. Architecture had called H. W. Perrow, and he had been very successful. He had designed the new State capitol which had just been completed. In an effort to forget a disappointed love affair, V. W. Rinehart had gone West. Much to his surprise and joy, oil had been found on his lillle strip of land, and Shug had been made immensely rich. The girl had then come back. O. F. Wolfe had become one of the best lawyers in the South; he had risen to the supreme bench and was now prominently mentioned for judge in the World Court of International Justice. P. B. Mayson had surprised his old classmates by mixing banking with politics. Mase was slated for Secretary of the Treasury in the coming Democratic inauguration. H. E. Dantzler had taken up c ivil engineering after leaving Wofford; and later, having grown tired of continually moving about the country, he had come back to Spartanburug to build an overhead railway, and lo settle down for good. He was now one of the city ' s most influential citizens. L. S. Fairey had followed in his father ' s footsteps and gone into the ministry. He was now pastor of Main Street Methodist Church in Columbia, S. C. Next morning I continued my search for old acquaintances, and luck again played into my hands. As I was eating breakfast, the head waiter brought a ralher portly and very dignified looking old gen- tleman over and gave him a chair at my table. 1 thought his face looked familiar but he had grown so stout that it took me fully ten minutes to recognize him. He was none other than Malcolm Woods; who, since he now owned about half of the town of Marion, S. C, had brought his wife and family to the city to take in the latest shows. After our own experiences had been related we naturally began talking of college days and college chums. Malcolm, always a Niagara of gossip, seemed lo know the personal history of each and every member of the class. 101 F. T. Knight had followed his love for the squared ring and was now manager of the heavyweight champion of the world. Red ' s share of the recent championship purse had netted him about a hun- dred and fifty thousand dollars. E. A. Manship, in some inconceivable manner, had strayed up to Alaska. Ellis now owned several very beautiful summer resorts. R. H. Hammond, having discovered some new scientific law about which he knew very little and everybody else knew nothing, was touring the country and lecturing upon his favorite hobby. Agriculture had called E. L. Griffin, and he was known throughout the South because of his famous experimental farm. Grif laughingly called himself a Seedologist. H. D. Lewis had gone into the brokerage business, and by ceaseless energy and untiring industry had worked up to such a position that he never had to worry about seeking trade. Rather did the trade seek him. L. E. King had specialized in Mathematics after leaving Wofford and was now instructor in that course of study at the University of South Carolina. L. R. Livingston had taken up law and politics and has succeeded in both. Roy has been rep- resenting his district in Congress for the last six years. With only five men not accounted for I decided to call on Joe Sprott, who is now district manager of the Southern Railroad. I found Joe in his office and, much to my surprise, I found J. M. McKnight there also. Mac is assistant treasuier of the same road, and had dropped in lo see Joe as he passed through on business. Ben Robertson, they told me, had gone into the big league after leaving school and had made him- self famous by pitching tfiree straight no-hit-no-run games. He has retired and is now living in Cleve- land, Ohio. J. M. Pitts is now a big merchant and planter in Clinton, S. C. Kid has prospered and has just recently made a gift of a hundred thousand dollars to his Alma Mater. I now had recorded the personal history of the entire Class of ' 24, with but one exception; but when I questioned Joe and Mac concerning J. W. Stokes they were unable to help me in the least. So back 1 went in search of Malcolm Woods. Son, so Malcolm told me, through carelessness, had allowed himself to get mixed up in three breach of promise suits at the same time. He had then eloped with another girl and left the country. Where he was, Malcolm was compelled to admit that he didn ' t know. But it was rumored, he said, that Son was living in Italy; that he had developed his musical talent; and was now recognized as one of the greatest composers of Europe. My task was now completed and I had a short synopsis of the after-life of all my classmates. I remained in Spartanburg for several more days, renewing old acquaintances, and then returned to Wash- ington, very much pleased with the success of the class at large, and having enjoyed my vacation immensely.

Although our first two years have seen a thinning of our ranks, we still have eighty-four Juniors. Our class has achieved great success in scholarship, in literary soci- eties, and has been well represented on the Glee Club. In athletics we have done exceedingly well, having on the Varsity eleven the center, right tackle, and two halfbacks, with a total of nine men on the squad. For the basket-ball team we furnish the center, and of the baseball team we supply two pitchers, the center fielder, and the third-baseman. We have three men on the track team. At the end of our Sophomore year we elected the following officers: M. H. LESESNE, President H. F. MURPH, Vice-President T. A. MYERS, Secretary M. C. WOODS, Jr., Treasurer M. R. DICKSON, Historian : As we enter upon the responsibilities of a Senior Class we are determined to main- tain the excellent record which we have made, and will exert our best efforts towards holding our class in the forefront of all things worth while.

D, 114 Sophomore Class History HE Class of ' 26, when it entered Wofford in the fall of 1922, was the largest class that had ever entered Wofford College up to that time. We then numbered 227, and, no doubt, presented an amusing group of Fresh- men to the upper-classmen and Faculty. As hazing had been abolished before our arrival, we were not given the formal greeting we expected; but we endured the loss without regrets. The officers for our Freshman year were as follows: B. E. LEWIS, President E. H. GREGG, Vice-President J. M. GIBSON, Secretar}) S. R. EASTERLING, Treasurer W. L. KINNEY, Historian As Wofford is a member of the S. I. A. A., none of the members of our class were permitted to participate in any varsity contests. Undaunted by this, our Freshman Class had teams in all phases of athletics; and each made a creditable showing, especial- ly the football team. Then, the Freshman Inter-Collegiate Debaters won a unanimous decision over their opponents. Four of our members were on the State Championship Glee Club. The greater part of the Ministerial Club were, and still are, members of our class. When college opened for the 1923-24 session, approximately 175 of our number returned to form the present Sophomore Class. The following officers were elected: B. S. STUART, President A. W. WELLS, Vice-President W. L. KINNEY, Secretary A. D. WRIGHT, Treasurer B. E. LEWIS, Historian This year eighteen of our Freshman football team went out for the varsity; out of this number the following received Varsity Blocks: Reams, Knotts, Wells, Wright, Presley, Bell, West, Thackston, McDow, Cantey, and Lewis. We have two mem- bers of the basket-ball squad, our own cross-country team, and there will be several candidates for the varsity baseball team. We are well represented on the Glee Club by four of our classmates. In all departments of college activities, members of Class of ' 26 are playing a prominent part. We are, indeed, proud of the record we have made in the past two years, both in classroom and in college activities. We seem to have caught a vision of the service which we can render to our Country and State, as college men, and we have steadfastly set our hearts on having a part in the great work of serving mankind.

C. 123 Freshman Class History 3, N the morning of September 20, 1923, there assembled in the Wofford College Chapel, for the first time, the Freshman Class of the term 1923-24. In numbers it was second only to the Class of ' 23; in quality, second to none. As this was our first taste of college life, we were a bit on edge, and the proverbial green was sticking out all over us. Soon, however, we learned what the life of a Freshman is; and when we had passed the momentary stage of homesickness, we were true sons of Wofford. On October 15th we elected the following officers: Vice-President, Francis A. Dean; Secretary, W. N. Sweat; Treasurer, Henry J. Bennett, Jr.; Historian, Walton J. McLeod, Jr. When we returned to the College after Christmas, we elected as our President, E. D. Law. Notwithstanding our greenness and our unsophisticated demeanor we have proven ourselves to be Wofford ' s Greatest Freshman Class, distinguishing ourselves in all lines of endeavor. In athletics, we were especially brilliant. Every single man who re- ceived a Football letter (14, to be exact) was a member of the Freshman Class. And this was true not only in football, but also in baseball, basket-ball, and track. In addition, our class furnished all the Freshman Class Officers, the Freshman Repre- sentatives on the Honor Council and Executive Committees, and all members of the Freshman Debating Teams. Should we not feel justly proud of our class? We enjoyed immensely the various receptions given in our honor, affording us the opportunity of meeting the fair young ladies of Converse and of the city. These receptions further disclosed the fact that we had among us several social lions, who. m the next few years, will very probably be the leaders of the tea-hound brigade. Walton J.

MANUSCRIPTS POUR IN AS JOURNAL CON- TEST CLOSES Judges Now at Work on Short Stories and Poems — Fifty Dollars in Prizes to Be Awarded The Wofford College Journal in its first issue of the year announced an interesting contest, open to the students of all accredited high schools in South Carolma. Cash prizes totaling fifty dollars ($50) were offered to contestants: A first prize of twelve dollars ($12) was offered for the best original short story ; a second prize of eight dollars ($8) and a third prize of five dollars ($5) were also offered. Like offers were made for the three best original poems. The contest was to close January 10, 1924. The purpose of the contest, set forth by The Journal, was to stim- ulate interest in better poetry and PRELIMINARY FOR NEWBERRY-P.-C. TRIANGLE HELD Small Interest Shown, But Good Work Evidenced by Those Who Took Part At seven o ' clock Tuesday even- ing, all candidates for a place on Wofford s debating team met in the hall of the Preston Literary So- ciety for the try-out. The number of men trying out, also the number out to hear this forensic display, both go to show that the students here are not as in- terested in debating as they should be, and the thing that puzzles is why shouldn ' t they be? For the past few years Wofford has been steadily winning, and this year al- ready, Emory has gone down in unanimous defeat before the Ter- rier speakers; then, too, the art of persuasion in itself is indeed very beautiful. Why men are not in- terested cannot be explained unless GREAT PROGRESS BEING MADE ON THE BOHEMIAN College Annual Soon to Be Ready For the Press — Staff Working Overtime The Editor-in-Chief of The Bohemian announces that the stu- dents will receive their Annuals before commencement begins, un- less something happens unexpect- edly. All the individual photos have already been made. Tuesday the Seniors were given an opportunity to give a back-to- nature pose for the camera, and all the Senior write-ups are expected before the end of this week. Shake Bennett and Fatty Stokes are spending much of their time arranging the many different portions of the catalogue, and both of them say that the Annual of ' 24 will be the best that has ever been published. 134 Old Gold and Black Staff College Marshals R.

S., Jr 156 COACH MAJOR This is Coach Major ' s second year developing Wofford ' s football team, and the improvement which the Old Gold and Black eleven has shown since he started drilling it is ample testimony to the quality of instruction he has been given it. Coach Major won his football letter at Auburn, where he captamed his team. His leadership, his ability to attract and handle men, and his football knowledge make him a popular and valuable man. COACH PADGETT As you can see by his letter. Coach Padgett won his football reputation at Washmgton and Lee, where he played such a game as to win a place on the All-Southern Team. His speciality is line- coaching, and it was due to his expert instruction that the Wofford line offered such stout resistance. He also took charge of the Freshman Team, and after training it for two weeks, defeated the Rats from Clemson. MANAGER TOM STOKES Stokes has shown himself a thoroughly capable business man through his management of the Terrier eleven this year. He was always on the job at practice and at the games, and piloted the team around on the trips like a circus manager. He looked at the game with a critical eye, for he has had three years on the gridiron himself, before assuming the role of manager. 157 0 To Captain Hoole goes much of the credit for success during the past season of football at Wofford. It was his great ability and untiring energy which often directed his team from defeat to victory. Bill made an enviable record last year as a punter, and this year proving no exception, he was recognized as one of the best in the State. As a quarterback, he always ran his team to the best advantage and as a receiver of passes he made himself famous in the Benning game. With but a minute to play and forty yards to go. Captain Hoole snatched an almost impossible pass out from amid Benning s players and fell across the goal. In the passing of Bill from the gridiron, Wofford will feel a distinct loss. ' TOMMV GALT Just take a look and you would bet your last dollar that Tommy can pass a football. And you would win, too, because when the Old Gold and Black opened her passing game. Tommy always ac- counted for long gains with his bullet-like passes. He was also one of the fastest men on the squad and could always be counted on to negotiate some yardage around either end. On defense, his ability to smash either a running or passing attack made him a terror to his opponents. We all regret that this is Tommy ' s last year to don a Terrier uniform. LAWRENCE RIKARD This Physical Culture boy is a true center. Never was an opposing team able to make gains over him. On offense he was a driving power; on defense, a stone wall. .His ability is of the highest type and in appreciation of his great service to Wofford he is captain-elect for the coming season. Wof- ford is indeed forti ' nate to have such a cool-headed and energetic leader for next year. On the gridiron, Rickard ' s play is of the brilliant type — dashing here and there to close a hole and block a play. Wofford IS looking to him to bring her team to the front among State colleges. 158 CARLISLE MOORE Midus is a product of McColl High School and has just finished his third year of College foot- ball. Quiet and unassuming, yet always there with the goods, Moore has made an enviable record on the gridiron. His 190 pounds could always be counted upon to break up any play moving to left flank. Moore is an all-around man; for besides his line play he could be shifted to the backfield to do his share of the punting and passing. By his good work he has gained the admiration and good fellowship of each member of the team, as well as the honor of being assistant captain for the coming season. Wofford is indeed lucky to have Moore for another year of football. DUM BELL Just another all-Slate man, but Holy Mackerel, what a first-class one! Dum is the hardest hitlmg back seen in local circles since Dody Philips passed on. His ability to pick holes and to go through them is nigh on perfect; and what makes him more brilliant is his habit of making holes by dint of his powerful driving, if there are none there. Dum was one of the Terriers ' most brilliant stars in 23, and we are looking for him to double his brilliancy in 24. We are all looking forward to seeing this young star play in 24 as he never played befo;e and to fight always for the honor of Wofford. ANDY WELLS Who ' s that numberJ5? Oh! That ' s Andy Wells; just watch that boy step! The Alabama lad jomed us m the fall of 22, and starred on the rat team that year. As a member of the varsity he was one of the Terriers ' best backs; the way he sidesteps is beautiful; and he was a terror to every Wof- ford opponent, for he circled the ends for long and consistent gains. Andy was a good passer and a fair kicker, which makes him a very valuable man to the Old Gold and Black. We predict he will be the best back in the Palmetto State in 24. 159 ASBURY WRIGHT It is enough to say about Berry that he is a tackle shifted lo end, and that in his first year of varsity ball he was mentioned for All-Stale and S. I. A. A. He is one of the best prospects for an all-Stale berth thai looms up to-day. Berry is as steady, consistent, brainy, and modest a star as ever donned the uniform for the Old Gold and Black. His ability lo diagnose his opponents ' plays is uncanny, and his ability at snatching passes, and in making brilliant tackles, keeps gridiron enthusiasts in thrilling suspense. We are looking to Berry lo carry on his brilliant work in ' 24. JOE CANTEY Joe is another man who made himself famous on the Freshman team. Following this, he showed marked ability on the varsity. Joe is a steady player and can always be counted on in the pinches. Never becoming excited, his cool head was always a material aid to the Old Gold and Black. When it came to catching passes he was always there; and opponents found it hard to stop him before he had made gains. Coach Rip is especially lucky in that he will have Joe two more years. L.AURENS WALKER Those familiar with football will at once recognize this figure as Laurens Walker. His play has been such as to add new meaning to the word guard. When he was on defense the opposing team would try only one or two plays in his territory, and then the quarterback would like to page Mr. Steam Shovel. On offense, he always had the old hole for the backs. The Terrier supporters regret to lose Laurens, but they are compensated by knowing that he will carry the same spirit and represent Wofford m life as truly as he has on the gridiron. 160 MARION LESESNE Hard Driving Turn is not a Red Grange at circling ends! Neither has he a toe Hke Kipshe ; but show me a man that can hit a line harder than the boy from Pickens. Every morning after a Wofford game you could read the play by accounts of the game in the paper and they would real like this: Lesesne ripped five yards through center; Lesesne rippd nine yards off left tackle, etc. Besides hittmg the line he was a great safety man and how he could trot back up the field with a punt. Turn ' will be back to help us be S. C. Champs in 24. S. B. KNOTTS Bo started his journey to the realms of football glory as a member of the Hastoc School Team. He continued his good work as a guard on the Terrier Rat team of 22. Bo is, as Big Mary Player says, just a fast fighting guard. Bo started the season in brilliant fashion but due to injuries was held back from playing his best. The man who is the real football player though, is the one who will stay in the game with a painful injury impeding him, and that is what Bo did. We all look with admira- tion on a player of Bo ' s type, and are expecting great things from him in the next two years. JIMMY BAILEY Jimmy is an all-round good man, always putting his best into everything which he attempts, and so we find him on the football field always striving to better the team by his enticing efforts. When it comes to gaining ground through small holes, Jimmy shines. When Wofford needed regular gains, Jimmy could always be called on for them. As a defensive man he is very clever, being especially good at diagnosing the plays of the opposition. Jimmy is a sterling player and Wofford will miss him next year. 161 SLIM PORTER Slim is a veteran of the gridiron, having completed his third year. His 247 pounds in the center of the line could always be counted upon. Besides this, Slim was always very adept at getting rid of opposmg guards. His great weight and terrific power made him a dread to the opposing backs. Hard luck caused Wofford to be without the services of this warrior the latter part of the year, but the services rendered during the earlier games will cause Slim to be remembered as one of Wofford ' s great men on the gridiron. FROG REAMES It is often said that a mean-looking man cannot play mean football, but when Frog turned in his jersey at the end of the season of 23, that statement passed on, as a false saying. Frog is a hard- hitting back and a defensive man of the highest caliber. With Frog behind the line there is no fear ji i .j .j-jl of any ambitious opposing back breaking loose. Frog is a triple threat man, his passing is accurate, his IP-— Ml punting is fair and his running brings back to the fans memories of former heroes. As a quarter, he does his lead to perfection. His fighting spirit and his clear mind were important factors in the success which came to the Terriers. BEN ROBERTSON Since coming to Wofford, Ben has developed into a remarkable player. He was a great asset to the team in that he could be used either in the backfield or on end. On end, his weight made him especially valuable in throwing ambitious backs for a loss. To this, add that Ben was a sure tackle and you see what an asset he was to the Terrier squad. In the backfield he could always be called upon for good gains and good defensive work. Here ' s hoping Ben may have as great a success in life as he has had in athletics at Wofford. 162 MONK THACKSTON, End Moffett King Thackston hails, as he will proudly tell you, from Cedar Spring. He is another product of Hastoc to win fame on the gridiron. Last year, after a bad start caused by a broken arm, he made his position at end on the Freshman team. This year we find him holding down the left wing position in Wofford ' s first defense. Monk is a real football player in that he loves the game. He is an aggressive and nervy end, and especially good at filling in places with a long pair of arms. Monk has two more years with us, and in that time should develop mto all-State material. TOM PRESSLY, Tackle This is Big Tom Pressly, stalwart Terrier tackle. You know Tom was good or he would have never been mentioned for all S. I. A. A. He tips the scales at 195 pounds and is every inch a man. Nothing less than knocking out two ends a half with his powerful hands satisfies him. If the opposing quarter-back is smart, he won ' t run many plays at the mighty Pressly for the big boy has thrown many ambitious backs for losses. Coach Rip will not have to worry about a right tackle for the next two years, for he will have Tom. PIKE WEST Pike is a product of Spartanburg High and he has certainly carried its colors in brilliant fashion. Pike was Dum Bell ' s running mate and that is a man-sized job that only a player of Pike ' s type with that ready drive, fight, and foolbal! instinct can hold down in real style. On offense, Pike was a terror to opponents with his line driving and his interfering. On defense, playing safety, he matched his offensive ability in a brilliant way. Pike was also held back by injuries but continued through the season bearing a brilliant record behind him. Pike will be back in 24 to continue his work for the glory of Wofford. 163 Freshman Football Team OFFICERS GABE HILL Captain COACH PADGETT Coach T. H. STOKES Manager First Ron ' : Folk, H. F.

M Clark Swett, W. N. Bishop Dean Hogan Wham Smith 164 ll I I i ROSCOE ROGERS Capt. Rogers is a four-year man. He is one of the best guards in the State. His guarding was always sensational, fighting from the first whistle to the last. It was due to his wonderful leadership that Wofford had so successful a season. EDDIE COLLINS Collins is a floor worker of the first degree. Darting here, there, and everywhere, Eddie cannot be beaten when it comes to working the ball down the court. As a shot, he is always good, often sen- sational. Eddie IS always a fighter from the first minute of play to the final whistle. BILL CHILD Bill is a mighty fine center. Always cool, always fighting, always putting the best he has into the game, he could always be counted on to perform in a phenomenal manner. He is especially apt when It comes to getting under long shots and making them count. LAURENS WALKER In the position of standing guard Laurens could always be counted on to maintain an iron-clad defense. He is heavy but fast, and is a skillful shot. His pep was contagious. He is a steady, con- sistent, and oftentimes brilliant player. His loss will be felt by the team next year. MONTY Copeland is A-No. 1, standing guard. Always anxious to give his best for the team, he was an im- portant factor in its many victories. He boie the colors of the Old Gold and Black with the true Terrier spirit, fighting always to the last, even against great adds. 167 I, BILL BEGG Bill Begg is a swift and speedy little running guard. His floor work was fine and he was always a good shot. Begg always gave his best for the team, which was always a mighty lot. He is another who will be missed from the Wofford squad next season. ANDY WELLS Wells did not come out until the season was well under way but his ability and aptness to work soon won him a place on the squad. Andy ' s floor work is fine and with a little more experience, he is another who should develop into a star for the Old Gold and Black. BOB CARLISLE Bob is certainly a very promising forward. This was his first year, but he showed signs of de- veloping into a first-class basket-ball man. He is a dead shot and gets around well. Wofford is looking to Bob in future years to be one of the main stays of the team. SPEEDY WILLIAMS Speedy, acting as both manager and player, did his stuff in both capacities. He gave the team a good schedule and in doing so was partly responsible for the success of the team. His name speaks for his ability as a player, and Wofford will feel a distinct loss in his graduation, ZERO LINDSAY Zero has just finished his fourth year of college basket-ball. Lindsay is a scoring artist of the first type. This was proven in Macon, where for two days he was leading scores in the S. I. A. A. tournament. In the loss of Zero, -Wofford loses a man whose place in college athletics can scarcely be filled. 168 f 1 BAT BATSON, Capiam cJffd known as short-stop, and never in liable hitter, Bat For three years Bat has played all over that part of the diamd that time has his equal been seen in an opposing team. A clean and sure helder, showed us how the game should be played. For two years he has been an all-State man, and was certain of his standing agam this year until incapacitated by an accident during the atter part of last season. Despite this, however, he was elected captain of this year ' s team, and is supplying the hreshman learn with excellent coaching. JOE CRAWFORD, Manager f , C ) This young man is from the mountains of North Carolina, but in sonie vi a anaged to pick up a good game of baseball. On third base and in right field Joe has shown a first-class ability. But if he couldn ' t play at all, he would be an invaluable member of the team, for he never loses his pep and his determination to win. His cheerfulness and never-failing smile have more than once spirited the team for the final spurt which has so often won for ' Wofford. This year Joe has managed the team like a veteran business man. WILTON HOLCOMBE Steadiness, reliability, and general utility are the qualities which have placed Wilton on the Terrier squad for three years. Short, second, outfield, and the catching position he has filled as occasion has arisen. This year he stands in line to fill the old position of Captain Gross behind the plate. Wilton is an outstanding example of the man who does not talk, but does. TOMMY GALT, Ai!.hlan[ Capiam Tommy came to Wofford with football fame, and made his claim good in the backfield; but he has also developed an unexpected ability to handle the horse-hide sphere, and is now an indispensable member of the varsity team. For three years he has held down the hot comer of the diamond, a position for which he was admirably fitted by his clear, old head, his grit, and his good arm. He is always on the job, is forever keeping the pep up, and is one of the most popular men on the team. This year Tommy is Assistant Captain. 171 KID ROBERTS Here is a man who has been all-State outfielder for two years and who is expected by every base- ball authority in the State to make the same distinction the coming two years. He is undoubtedly the best out-fielder in college circles. You have to hold him back to keep him from covering three fields. He is the best lead-off man in the State; he leads in batting average, and like Ty Cobb, steals more bases than any other man on the team. Kid is a real player. BEN ROBERTSON A great find for the initial sack was Ben. He has a huge physique, a great reach, and a good arm. He slugs the ball like a second Babe and is being counted upon, by virtue of his experience with the Terrier Champions last year, to knock the boards off the fence this season. When he joined the Ter- riers he was prone to lose his coolness, but he is fast overcoming that failing with experience, and is now a mainstay on the team. JIMMY BAILEY Jimmy is a diminutive right-hander with a steady eye and a cool head. He has played short-stop at limes, but last year he was a regular pitcher, and this year is expected to make a pitching ace. The team can never forget his home-run at Newberry last year, which started the team up the hill to victory. He is one of the best-liked men in college, and is sure to have the best that the team can give him in his pitching battles. ZERO LINDSAY Zero is of basket-ball fame, where by his long shots he has time and again brought the galleries to their feet; but his accuracy on the hardwood floor has been balanced by his accuracy on the key- stone sack. He is a smooth-running cog that never slips on a play; he is what one would call a finished player. At the bat he is a persistent flitter. He can be counted on in every minute of every game. 172 TIP MOSELEY This player is a product of last year ' s Freshman Team; and is now bidding fair to becoming one of Wofford ' s best second base players. He is a powerful left-handed batter. In the field he is smooth and precise, accurate to the last detail, and his arm is as sure as a Fren ch 75. During the next two years he will be seen as a star m college circles. RED PETTIGREW When a man has red hair such at Pettigrew has, you can count on him to be in the fight to the last minute. This rule will apply most truly in the case of Red. He has a pleasant smile at all times, is never down-hearted, is confident of success. He is a product of last season ' s Freshman team. He hits well and is a strong and willing worker, cool and determined. He is very popular with his team-mates and is a live member of the learn. OYSTER ARANT Wofford looks to Arant to fill the position of short-stop which Bat has hitherto filled so ably. Though, because of inexperience, he is still a trifle awkward, yet it is certain that during this season Coach Major will put the finish on, and develop Arant into a first-class, smooth-running short-stop. His steady hitting and eager spirit will prove a great advantage to him. He comes to Wofford from Carlisle. LEFTY BLAKELEY Here is a big, strong, iron-man pitcher, who can pitch three straight games for the old-home-town and never weaken. Lefty is an aggressive player, with speed like lightning. He is swift of foot, so that he can be used as a fielder when not occupying the box, as he doubtless will be used, for his hitting is of the strong, certain, slugging type that is rare in pitchers of quality. However, Lefty has the quality as a pitcher, and is being counted upon to bear a great part of the pitching burden for the Wofford Champions this year. 173 Freshman Baseball Squad J. A.

We would be unjust to ouiselves were we to accept for the truth the many flattering state- ments that are recorded in the preceding pages of this volume. For your own sake, ad- mirable reader, please bear in mind while reading the contents of the complimentary section that all these flattering passages and lovely photos were very expensive to each individual. Now, if any one of us happens to be a relative or an intimate friend of yours, every word written about the said one is true; while on the other hand, if any one of us is a brother or uncle of an enemy of the family, all the nice things are absolutely untrue. We recognize the fact that to-day the world is suffering from a lack of love, and human sympathy, and it is the purpose of this issue of The Friday Morning Roast to establish it in the hearts of all those that are eager to see the universe linked together in the bounds of friendship. We have a firm resolve to forsake selfishness and make this wonderful world bubble over with love, and human kindness. The many flagrant lies that will greet your eye in the subsequent pages are published with no harmful intent or malicious desire and we trust that no one will be offended by ihe satire and slander that has been in- jected into this portion of The Bohemian. Dedication This volume is affectionately and justifiably dedicated to The Unknown Crook, who has con- stantly endeavored to destroy our well-equipped gymnasium. It is hard to make another attempt after having failed so many limes but we feel he will sooner or later succeed. Long Live the Guilty One! Down With the Fire Department! 256 BOI Spartanburg, South Carolina THE COTTON MANUFACTURING CENTER OF THE SOUTH RELIGIOUS, EDUCATIONAL, AGRICULTURAL, AND INDUSTRIAL CENTER OF THE STATE THE CITY OF SUCCESS The students of Wofford College believe that Spartanburg is a great town, and for this reason, the Staff of The Bohemian is inserting the following information about the city and its advantages: Spartanburg is supposed to have derived its name from a regiment formed in 1 775 by Colonel John Thomas and known as the Spartan Regiment. In 1 776 the provincial congress met in Charleston and divided the section of country between Broad and Saluda rivers into three congressional districts — Lower or Dutch Fork, Middle or Lower River, and Upper Spartan District. The late Dr. Landrum, the his- torian, expressed the opinion that the name Spartan was intended as a compliment to the people living on the northern border of the colony. However that may be, the Spartan spirit has characterized the his- tory of Spartanburg county through its 137 years. Spartanburg ' s growth has not been of the boom variety, but slowly and steadily she has climbed to her present stale of leadership for South Carolina m educa- tion, religion and industry. In 1820 the population of the town was 800 and there were only twenty-six buildings. In 1911 the population was 11,395. To-day the city and county compose a closely integrated unit, every part of the unit so linked with good roads that, in the language of Solicitor Blackwood, Spar- tanburg County is a cosmopolitan city of 100,000 people. EDUCATION Few places present such varied educational advantages as Spartanburg. At the foundation, lies a splendidly equipped public school system under the superintendency of an educator whose work was recently honored by the highest degree of a leading American University. Fifty-live hundred children in eleven grades are instructed by 112 teachers. Wofford College takes rank with the best colleges for men in the South. Prominence of its gradu- ates in business and the professions in the leading universities of the country has so frequently been the occasion of remark as to constitute the best advertisement of the thoroughness of the preparation it gives for life and the going power of the Wofford spirit. The College maintains two high-grade fitting schools, one of which is in Spartanburg, though entirely separate from the college in faculty and manage- ment. The students in the college numbered in 1922-23, 440; those in the Fitting School, 117. Large additions to endowment and equipment are being planned. Converse College ranks as one of the highest grade colleges for women in the Southern States. Its 383 students are drawn from sixteen states and one foreign country. While the large and able force in the musical department has made possible the wonderful history of thirty years of the South Atlantic States Music Festival, the personnel numbers and standard of the school of arts and sciences are the factors that have secured from the National Bureau of Education the high rating as a college of general education referred to above. Spartanburg has two business colleges: Cecil ' s Business College and Carolina Commercial College. These institutions supply to young men and women thorough training in all standard business lines, in- cluding stenography, stenotypy, secretarial work, banking, civil service, commercial arithmetic and the various branches of accounting. The Hastoc School for boys, founded in 1907, is doing preparatory work ranking with that of the best private schools for boys in the South. Its graduates have won distinction in many of the leading colleges and universities and have taken high rank in the Government Academies at Annapolis and West Point. Hastoc is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools. The South Carolina School for the Deaf and Blind, situated at Cedar Springs, four miles south of the city, is one of the pioneer institutions of its kind. This institution is liberally supported by the State. i 257 The Textile Industrial Institute has been defined by the United States Commissioner of Education as one of the most important educational departures in the country. It is a half-time cultural boarding school with a textile feature, and has arrangements with local cotton mills by which its students are allowed to work in pairs, alternating by weeks between classroom and cotton-m;ll work, which they do to earn school expenses. ■ RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES All the leading religious denominations are represented by large and vigorous organizations. There are organized congregations of Baptists, Catholics, Christian Scientists, Jews, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Associate Refoimed Presbyterians, and Wesleyans, besides smaller bodies. The Y. M. C. A. has a large, well equipped and extensively patronized building, located on East Main Street. The citizens of Spartanburg, as evidence of their interest in the work of its organization, recently made it a gift of $75,000. The Y. W. C. A. has been conducted on a generous scale. It owns a handsome four-story brick building on one of the choice sites in a high-grade residence quarter near the business section of the city. The Salvatoin Army has so won the esteem of the people of Spartanburg that they recently sub- scribed 20 per cent more than asked for the erection of a suitable home for the Army s work. INDUSTRIAL Spartanburg leads the State of South Carolina in the manufacture of textiles and ranks sixth in the number of spindles among all the counties of the United Slates. With thirty-three textile manufacturing plants in operation and two new ones to be in operation during 1924, Spartanburg mills are weaving enough cloth annually to girdle the globe seven times and spinning enough yarn to reach the sun and loop the moon. It is just forty years ago that the first Pacolet Mill was completed, but the four decades have witnessed the most wonderful growth in textiles the world has ever known in a like period. From 12,000 spindles and 328 looms, Spartanburg County boasts to-day 943,760 spindles and nearly 26,000 looms. From a few hundred employees the cotton manufacturing industry has grown to where it requires nearly ten thousand people. From humble villages and small plants the industrial centers have grown until to-day they are pointed to with pride as beautiful places to visit among the points of interest in and around Spartanburg. While the manufacture of cotton goods holds first place in the minds of Spartanburg people, there are other industries that are making the city and county known abroad. Among these may be mentioned lumber, fertilizers, and mill supplies. There never has been a time when the Chamber of Commerce has received more inquiries concerning the advantages offered for location of small industries. AGRICULTURE Located in the most fertile section of the Piedmont region, Spartanburg County affords unusual agricultural opportunities. With abundant rainfall, due to proximity to the mountains, and deep clay sub-soil, plants seldom suffer from the lack of moisture. Cotton production per acre ranks very high. The crops and livestock for 1922 equalled $10,514,067, being more than $1,500,000 in excess of those of the next highest county in the State. It is practically impossible to pass in or out of northwestern South Carolina by rail without going through Spartanburug, the gateway to both the North and the West and the gateway across the moun- tains. The city is located in four railway systems. 25« Wofford College HENRY NELSON SNYDER, LL.

I have not found him. But I knew a man who lived to be seventy years of age and could not fill out a check. He had never signed one, because he had never had a bank account. He is dead. He died a pauper. He left his wife in suffering poverty. His shroud is the wedding suit of the friend who dressed him for his funeral. He lies to-day in a coffin bought by kindly neighbors. When he died, he left this epitaph to adorn the board which marks his tomb: Here lies the remains of a spendthrift. I never saved a dollar in my life. I have never prepared against the day of misfortune. I never took out a life insurance policy. I never owned a home of my own. I never had a bank account. There are debts that I have never paid, and which I never can pay. My life has been a failure, and I want the world to let the grass grow over my grave and forget that I ever lived. (Signed) A SPENDTHRIFT. We appreciate this because it is a daily truth. We are interested in you men, and want to help you. Deposit with us. There is no better friend to Wofford College and its students than this good old bank. Our association dates from 1871. ' i ' Safe — Courteous — Helpful The First National Bank Spartanburg, S. C. A.

C, March II. — It was pre- dicted by the leading citizens of the town, in- cluding Si Perkins, that this city will be in a turmoil the first of June next, when Mr. Graham, a prominent young man of this city who is attending Wofford and carrying out the canteen project successfully, will return to this city and will be received m pomp and glory. He, with the aid of the other two young men of the village, is expected to or- ganize a hog and peanut association which will put Ridgeville on the map. (Special to The Tatler.) Anderson, S. C. — Telegrams from all sec- tions of the State were received here yester- day expressing the State ' s sympathy for our recent great bereavement. The entire police force was riddled with bullets in an unsuc- cessful attempt to raid the village still. He was buried the following afternoon with mili- tary honors because of having been a note- worthy member of the Anderson Home Guards for forty-nine consecutive years. The funeral will be carried out in grand style since the Ladies ' Birthday Almanac indicates fair weather. Now Mr. Isaiah Simpson moved to this city from Toney Creek, near Johnson ' s X-Roads, which is in whooping distance of Garnet. He leaves two daughters, both girls, ages 37, and 39, respectively. In 1837 he was married to Miss Hannah Doolittle. Since her marriage she has done everything but kill him, which act was allotted to the above- mentioned moonshiner. Orangeburg, S. C. — Mr. Nates Blanton, a candidate for the M. V. (Master of Violin) degree at Wofford, will brighten our city with his smiling countenance during the spring holi- days. It will be of interest to the farmers to learn that a plow and tractor concern will be opened in the town hall Thursday night. The Harper s Bazaar was successfully con- ducted by Mrs. Billings ' Sewing Circle last night. Delightful refreshments, consisting of crimson lemonade and fresh-water fish, were served. The City Pig Club held its semi-annual get-together last Tuesday night at the Livery Stable Dance Hall. The credit for the suc- cess of this affair goes to Messrs. Albert Bat- son and Jaybird Sifly, who founded this organization last spring. — Biihbles from ihe Edislo. (Special Dispatch to The Tatler.) Clinton, S. C, Feb. 30. — This city was the scene of leaping flames last Saturday night at seven-thirty when the entire population was aroused from its nocturnal rest and was called to fight the stubborn blazes which tried to engulf Mr. Jenkins ' corncrib. The city Vol- unteer Fire Department, with its alertness, soon had the blaze under control. The P itts Mercantile Company has re- cently received a large shipment of various kinds of merchandise. In this shipment may be found the latest designs in ear-bobs, corn salve, double-grip milk buckets, hitching reins, iced tea glasses, pump handles, scythes, go-in sweeps, rock salt, and bustles. Every- body is cordially invited to the formal open- ing which will be held at sun-up Wednes- day A. M. (First Release to The Tatler.) McColl, S. C. — McCoU was honored with distinguished guests from various parts of the globe (Dunbar, Clio, Gibson, Lucknow, etc.), who have been here in the city attending the annual Knitters ' Convention. This conven- tion was held in Tatum last year. We hereby beg to announce that the weekly calf sale will be held Thursday instead of Tuesday, in front of the Moore Drug Store. The City Council at its last meeting passed the following ordinances: 1 . The hitching of horses, mules and oxen, to the Chamber of Commerce and S. A. L. Terminal Station, is strictly forbidden. 2. No male or female under the ages of 18 and 21 respectively, will be allowed on the streets of this city after the ringing of the curfew at first dark. (Special to The Tatler.) Chester, S. C, Mar. 14. — An exceptional wedding was solemnized here last Saturday at daybreak when Miss Vera Picklesimer, only daughter and girl of Mr. and Mrs. John Picklesimer, of this city, was married to Mr. Aaron Muckenfuss, one of the leading bar- bers of Great Falls. The local baseball diamond was the scene of a hotly contested game Monday, when the Poison Iveys from Happy Bottom, played the Hardly Abies of this city. The game was called by Umpire Stokes at the end of the fifth inning on account of darkness. Due to a bad decision by Base Umpire Hardin, a regular stampede occurred, resulting in minor bruises for all participants; casualties were few. I Kuppenheimer Clothes Exclusive Local Agents I Rd. V.

Pawn shops, barber shops, Marinello shops, and all other imaginable shops profit because of them. In the first place, Fra- ternities are composed of the best-lookmg men on a college campus (please don ' t challenge this statement). Any man that can possibly mvent a new style hair cut, introduce a gaudy tie to the campus, or display a new mode of wearing trousers, will be suffocated in the rush and will have an opportunity to bump any bunch that he dislikes. All the best dancers, the biggest liars, the biggest liquor-heads, can be found in the frat halls associating with the best orators and most popular students on the campus. All Freshmen should try their durnedest to get a bid from a club; for such a move will never be regretted. Naturally the new brothers will have to look out for the club ' s expenses; but all this can be regained in the last three years on the campus. Money is not to be considered, however; for a fraternity dollar is worth twice as much as a non-fral brick. One of the main attractions that fraternity has to offer is its Exchange Department. This de- partment makes it possible for a man to appear in a different suit of clothes every day, although he owns only two. The benefits of these exchanges can not be over-estimated. This borrowing helps a man im- mensely for he can always let his brothers have their clothes pressed ready for his immediate use. Another feature of the fraternity is the pres- tige that it affords. After a pledge has been taken in all the professors erase his zeros and insert tens. This fact alone makes the fraternity one of the most alluring organizations recorded in the college catalog.

So boldly he entered the Cadillac Eight, All the girls went crazy, they just couldn ' t wait; Then spoke the fair driver, one hand on the wheel, I ' m plumb glad to see you, my name is Lucile, Please, come lo our dance — don ' t forget my bazaar. But never a word spoke Young Rockingstar. He look them all easy, and treated ' em rough. We ' ll have lo admit it — the boy knows his stuff. Fie loves his old Scotch; would distribute his rye ; Maybe this is one reason he ' s a popular Guy. He should go out to I lollywood and there be a star. He ' s alluringly slender, this Young Rockingstar. SPARTANBURG, S. C. 1 UTTERNUT READ The ' Pride of Spartanburg Becker ' s Bakery 138 N.

He staggers and stumbles while climbing the stair, His hat is turned back, and we see his slick hair. He staggers in like a Greenville street car. We are now gazing on the stewed Rockingslar. He arises too late to visit the prof ' s. This rat so detested by all the hard sophs; He feels like a pie the whole afternoon. There s only one reason — he got up too soon. Be frank with me, Jake, won ' t he give you a jar ? This tubercular booze-head. Young Rockingstar ? Of course we agree that there is something more Charming to all of us than a classroom door. Because some of us cram day in and day out. But after exams — Encore! all the profs shout.

Students are not allowed to smoke in this building! No firearms shall be carried by any visitor. Boys under sixteen must be accompanied by parents, and ladies must be properly chap- eroned. II. Any man attired in formal dress shall not be admitted — he has no business here. Pro- fessors will be allowed to enter after nightfall if they promise not to disturb too many of the literary masters. Students from Kmgstree, Ridge- ville, and other places that furnish dangerous characters, must be accompanied by an officer of the law. Those who desire to chew tobacco while reading must bring their own cuspidors. III. Students, especially those from Senior Hall, are not allowed to talk secretly with Dar- win while inside the building. All students from Clinton must put up bond before they may take out books. This is a severe rule but Screench Fuller and Kid Pitts were the cause of its origin. IV. Only current magazines may be read in- side the library — books must be carried to the student ' s room. Only six copies of IVhiz Bang are available each month. Students must not fight for these for fear the leather binding may be injured. Any student smuggling an issue of the Times-Democral or the Pee Dee Advocate into the building will be automatically suspended from college. V. No student with money is supposed to in- habit the library — only broke men read maga- zines and books — others must spend their spare time at the canteen. Dogs, cats, monkeys, don- keys, elephants, and all other pets that students may bring to college with them will be allowed in the library. VI. No student shall read more than fifteen books per month. All dime novels must be handled with the greatest possible care and must be returned on time for there is always somebody waiting for them. There shall be no crap-shooting games during library hours.

Take my medicine and die young so that you will not have to be fed in your old age. Thousands have realized the merits of this remedy. Yes, it clears the skin, perfumes the breath, aids digestion, builds up the constitution, throws rheumatism over the back fence and makes smallpox welcome. Only a few bottles left; now is the time. Buy now and rejoice hereafter. We absolutely guar- antee this tonic to discard all domestic disorders, and make consumption a pleasure.
