OFFO D PRESENTS... HE students of a small Methodist Liberal Arts College in Spartanburg, S. C, named after the Methodist minister whose legacy made its founding possible and who wished to establish a liberal arts institution in his own county for the Christian boys of this state, take pleasure in presenting a pictorial record of their life there, through the editor and business manager whom they have chosen, in the form of . . .

OF THE GREATER PROBLEMS IN THE CREA- TION OF A YEARBOOK IS THAT OF CHOOSING A THEME. THIS WAS AN UPPERMOST THOUGHT IN THE MIND OF THE EDITOR AND HIS STAFF FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THE QUESTION WAS RAISED: WHY HAVE A THEME, AT ALL? THE ANSWER WAS THAT A THEME WAS NEEDED TO FACILITATE DECORATION. WE CONCLUDED THAT THERE WAS NO PARTICULAR POINT IN GROPING IN THE VAST EXTENT OF ACTIVITY AND LIFE FAR AWAY FROM OUR CAMPUS FOR AN IDEA ABOUT WHICH TO BUILD THE BOOK, EVEN IF SOME THEME OF THIS NATURE MORE EASILY LENDS ITSELF TO DECORATION. WHY NOT USE OUR OWN INFORMAL CONTENTS • OUR COLLEGE • OUR CLASSES • OUR ATHLETICS • OUR ACTIVITIES • THE FEATURES TOP TO BOTTOM: Light, Annou ' ncements, Pictures, Sodas, ME CAMPUS LIFE AS A THEME? WELL, WHY NOT? NO REASON. SO, LOOKING FURTHER INTO THE PROBLEM WE FIND THAT NO OTHER COULD OUITE BE SO INTERESTING AND DECORATIVE AS A PICTORIAL CROSS SECTION OF OUR EVERY- DAY LIFE HERE ON THE CAMPUS. AS A RESULT WE HAVE TRIED TO MAKE THIS BOOK AN INFORMAL ONE, OR AT LEAST MUCH MORE INFORMAL THAN ITS PREDECESSORS. SOME READERS WILL CONTEND THAT WE HAVE STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS, AND SOME WILL THINK THAT WE HAVE NOT GONE FAR ENOUGH. BE THAT AS IT MAY, WE HOPE THAT THE GREATER PORTION OF THE STUDENT BODY WILL BE THOROUGHLY SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS OF OUR LABORS, WHICH WERE ALL THE MORE RIGOROUS AND EXACTING DUE TO THE GREATER NUMBER OF PICTURES TO BE SCHEDULED AND MADE AS WELL AS THE DECISIVE CHANGE IN PAGE LAYOUTS AND ARRANGEMENTS. THE ANNUAL IS DIVIDED INTO FIVE PRINCIPAL SECTIONS. THESE ARE THE SAME WORN-OUT DIVISIONS, BUT FOR THE WANT OF BETTER ONES WE HAVE ORGANIZED THE BOOK THE SAME WAY. THE COLLEGE, THE STUDENTS, THEIR ATHLETICS, THEIR ACTIVITIES AND THE FEATURES OF THE BOOK COMPRISE THE DIVISIONS. THE BOOK IS ORGANIZED MORE OR LESS LOGICALLY, SO WE ASK YOU TO BEGIN AT THE FRONT AND READ TOWARD THE BACK, NOT IGNORING THE WRITTEN MATTER. IF, WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED, YOU DO NOT LIKE THE BOOK . . . WELL, KEEP IT TO YOURSELF! TOP TO BOTTOM: Store, Model, Commencement, Football, Gun. E PAY TRIBUTE ■ • • TO DR. JAMES A.

I R. HENRY NELSON SNYDER occupies a choice spot in the heart of every Wofford man. His is one of the most far-reaching in- fluences in both the rehgious and educational circles of this and many other states. A master of the spoken language, he has guided the destinies of Wofford men more than any other influence. A man of prodigious mentality, unshakeable integrity, deep religion, and apprecia- tion for the values of this life, we are proud of him and his accomplish- ments as President of our Alma Mater. DR. H, N. SNYDER B K A.B., Yanderbilt University, 1887; M.A., Van- derbilt University, 1890; Litt.D., University ot South Carolina, 1905; LL.D., University of South Carolina, 1910; LL.D., Furman University, 1937. I II 7l DEAN DR. A. MASON DUPRE INCE graduating from WoflFord College forty-four years ago, Dean DuPre has been actively identified with this institution. First as headmaster of the Fitting School, then as a professor, and finally as Dean, he knows and is known by practically every living Wofford man. Rarely does he forget a name and never does he forget a face, recalling instantly any old graduate he might meet. He is a man of deep scholar- ship and enjoys wide reading. Few figures anywhere are more univer- sally respected.

Some immediately entered the rigorous side of our college activity, whereas others began to take part in things a little less strenuous than athlet- ics. The class soon found that it had not a few athletes, as well as some politicians, speakers, out- standing intellects, religious workers, and boys with that peculiar talent for doing — well, just nothing at all. As time passed, our lads have participated in every phase of college activity. Now, with a few changes in our rolls, we are to be found on the following pages in all of our resplendent glory (?). J.

Historian MISS RUTH YOUNG Sponsor THE 193 8-3 9 Junior Class of Wofford may not be the most outstanding in history but we have had a good time and produced some men of promise in scholarship, athletics, and politics. We lost the usual number of members but we gained some good ones from among several junior colleges. Most of us gave little thought to the fact that we were starting on the last half of our way through Wofford College. However, we began to grow out of our know-it-all, rough-neck sophomore ways. Whether we are or not, we try to act as though we are important enough not to have to sh ine so that the other boys will know we are still in school. In September, thirty-five of us were selected for the advanced R. O. T. C, a welcome honor, except when drill mornings find us short on sleep. The whole class has spent the year in learning who and what to know and on the whole we are confident that we are ready to more than fill the vacancy which will be left by the graduation of the present Senior Class.

President Y ice-President . Secretary Treasurer Historian THERE is not a more inflated feeling known to man than that feeling experienced by a student returning to college — a sophomore. The members of the class of ' 41 are no exceptions. As freshmen we were the objects of sport for the upperclassmen, who felt it their duty to remove the greenness from us. Natural resentment gave way to the realization that we had received good, not evil, that we were bettered rather than harmed. With this in mind we returned our sophomore year with the determination that the class of ' 42 would not be neglected; and we took it upon ourselves to train them properly for college life. Our class has several football players who con- tributed their part to the team this past season and who we expect to lead the attack of future Terrier squads. Three of the five men on the tennis team came from our ranks, and the players contributed to the varsity basketballers by our class were invaluable, three of the regulars being sophomores. We hold our own among the campus scholars also, and many of our men are already members of honorary fraterni- ties. From our class come speakers, debaters and a full share of politicians — yes, they are good, too! ll OMORE CLASS p. M. ABERNATHY Avondale, N. C. W. J. ALLRAN, JR. ChcrryviUe, N. C. H. D.

Historian MISS VIRGINIA BOZARD Sponsor SEPTEMBER saw the arrival of 150 freshmen, very fresh, on the campus. Finding our places within the bare walls of the dormitories we set- tled down, wide-eyed, open-mouthed and shrinking, to adjust ourselves to the strange, new world that was ours. After a few weeks had passed and the whirl of the fraternity rushing season had subsided there were sixty-eight casualties. After the call for football practice a small and bald-faced group fought through the season only to draw a blank. The basketball team fared little better. The class first struck a note of harmony by placing fifteen men in the Glee Club, six of whom made the annual February tour. Nineteen came through first term exams with places on the Dean ' s list. By now the bewilderment had for the most part passed, and we settled down to routine with the election of class officers. Various members of the class began to find their places among the diverse extra-curricula activities. Our debating team was selected and aspiring speakers en- tered the annual Freshman Declamation Contest; others cooperated with the religious activities. Hav- ing made our debut, we find our place as part of that group dubbed — college boys! C. C. ARIAL Greenville, S. C. J. M. ARTHUR Union, S. C. C. E. BAILEY Lake View, S. C. J. W.

C, Erskine, and Davidson and no wins, one cannot say that a win- ning team was on the field. Coach Ashmore did wonders in training the boys in fundamentals to prepare them for varsity service. The team, a light one with its heaviest man a bare 165 pounds, lacked nothing in fight and spunk and frequently gave exhibitions that brought tears to the eyes and warmth to the hearts of the spectators.

FRESHMAN BASKETEERS When call for freshman basketeers was given immediately after Christmas holidays, about twenty-five aspiring young men reported. It was a varied group of potential basketball players. The entire group practiced two weeks and then the disheartening period of cutting the squad began. This was done by Coach Lanky Caldwell until a playing squad of eight remained. The men as a whole were short, but speedy. Two tall men supplied the needed height. The team played a representative schedule of eight games. Erskine, P. C, Mayo, Spartan High, and Roebuck were the opponents. The Wofford freshmen were outclassed often by height, but their determination to win never wavered. This determination has been an integral part of Wofford basketball. Coach Caldwell gave his players some actual game experience. He also gave them the polish of fundamentals which they must have before promotion to the smooth working precision which is characteristic of the varsity. THE SQUAD M. L. Collins Forward V. P.

The Terriers do not have an abundance of good material, but they certainly boast some stars of first rank who should do well in the state meet which is held early in May after gaining experience and con- dition in the dual meets with other schools.

THAD HERBERT Captain NET MEN J 1939 Wrishtson, Coan, Shuler, Herbert, Flynn, Ford (Manaser) Tennis at Wofford is a minor sport that creates major interest. The Terriers, with an in- evitably good team, always end up their schedule well up on the win column, and at the time of this writing, this year ' s team looks to be no exception. Boasting a group of top notchers in Herbert, Wrightson, Garrett, Watts, Coan, Flynn, and Shuler this team should also do well in the collegiate tournaments. The freshman team is an unknown quality, but chances are that they will follow in the footsteps of their predecessors. SCHEDULE March 18 Emory (there) March 20 Mercer (there) March 21 U. of Fla.

INTRAMURAL SPORTS FROM early in the fall with the advent of touch football through the year with bas- ketball, volleyball, and ending with soft- ball in the spring, Wofford men who are unable to participate in varsity sports for one reason or another vie in hot intramural races keeping an eye shaded in the direction of the symbol of supremacy. Every season the competition becomes stiffer. Touch football assumes the aspect of the real thing at times. Basketball puts a high pre- mium on practice and teamwork. Volleyball calls out the best of the non-varsity crop. Softball furnishes a taper-off prior to the end of classes. This year even ping-pong and bowling have been brought into the intramural competition. Thus with a varied program of intramural activities, Wofford offers the chance of partici- pation in sports to all students who cannot make the varsity grade or who for lack of time are unable to play on varsity teams. A feeling of fraternity, good-sportsmanship, and friendly rivalry is created through this directed program. CHAMPIONS, TOUCH FOOTBALL Carlisle Hall, Non-Fraternity FRONT ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: D. C.

After a hotly contested campaign these four potential celebrities came out victorious, and to the best of their ability have endeavored to serve the student body in the most valu- able way. The duties of the Student Body officers command a great deal of leadership and character. Especially is this true of the president, for it is his duty to conduct student body meetings and to give consideration to all important issues which may arise among the students. He also presides over the meetings of the Student Council, and is executive in charge of all student body and class elec- tions. The duties of the other of- ficers are very few, but they are well done. Of course the vice-president performs the duties of the president when he is absent or incapacitated. The secretary keeps records of all proceedings of Student Body and Student Council meetings. The treasurer keeps all Student Body funds and disburses them as authorized by the Student Council.

The book was supplanted for several years by the Senior Edition of the Jotirnal, which carried the pictures of the seniors and underclassmen as well as pictures dealing with various activities and athletics. This was really an annual in disguise, in short, a yearbook with paper covers. The Bohe- mian has become after some evolution a high priced, permanent, fairly thick, attractive volume, bound in durable, leather covers. There is infinitely more work involved in the publication of the yearbook than is remotely imagined by the average member of the student body. The embryo of the book is formed early in the spring of the year before it is actually scheduled to appear. During the summer rough ideas are smoothed out by constant work and numerous inter-staff conferences as well as conferences with the printers and engravers. Then a rough dummy must be drawn, only to be re- drawn in finished form. This is usually done by the printers or engravers, but this year ' s editor took it upon himself to do this.

Then come the numberless pictures dealing with activities and features. The segregation, identification and shipping of these are a major task, but the greatest of all is that of writing the thousands of words of copy. This must be read and reread, only to be read and reread when the final proofs are set up. Not until the last issue is given out is the editorial staff ' s labor at an end. The business staff has autonomic control over the financing of the book, which has been handled in myriads of ways since its inception. Now the funds are raised by the appropriation of part of the student activities fee, from individual charges for pictures in the book, from organizations appearing in it and from the advertisers. The business staff tackles the superhuman job of mak- ing out a budget, soliciting for ads, making the charges, and collecting all funds. The business manager is held per- sonally responsible for all funds and it is he who makes all disbursements. So, all of this is explained in order that the student may appreciate what has been done for him, by the mem- bers of the staff of the 1939 Bohemian. F. I. Brownley J. Shands . B. L. Mitchell O. P.

JOURNAL The Journal, college magazine, was first published in 18 89 with Senator E. D. Smith as head of the editorial department. Dr. W. P. Few, now President of Duke, headed the literary department, and the late Bishop E. D. Mouzon was editor of the religious activities. Of note is the fact that each of these men has achieved distinction in these specific fields. Published five times yearly, the Journal offers opportunity for expression of student opinion and talent. The staff this year has done a good job, and the covers by Bill Gladden have given the magazine distinctive appearance. Judson Woodruff ' s stories are reminding of Poe, and articles by Owens Wood have displayed versatility. The series of articles on South Carolina Writers by Elbert Smith have been of particular interest as has the series on historical and beauty spots of the state. Leighton Presson has proven himself a writer of ability and pleasing style. At the State Collegiate Press Association meeting this year articles having appeared in the Journal won two first and two second places. We commend Editor Dannelly and his staff ' for producing a truly creditable magazine. A few issues of the Journal. BUSINESS STAFF J. R. ROUNTREE F. S. HOLCOMBE E. L.

This is the first year that the paper has been published as a weekly; last year it was issued semi-weekly. Whether the policy of weekly issues is to be continued remains in the hands of the Publica- tions Board. The story of the method of publishing the paper may prove of interest. Over the week- end the editor and several of his staff members make out a list of possible news stories for the following week ' s paper. On Monday afternoon the staff meets; the editor consults his staff members, selects the possible stories to be used, and assigns them to the various staff members. These stories are due Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday afternoon the editor and several men on the staff take the stories to the printer to be set up in type. The business manager has all the advertisements in by that time. The printer sets up these stories and advertisements and the next day the editor and his associates take last minute stories to the printer and read proof on those that the printer has set up. Fri- day the dummy is made up and proof read on the last minute stories. Th e editor writes the heads on Friday. After proof has been read and the entire paper set up, page by page, one copy of each page is then run off and final proof read on these sheets. Final corrections LEFT: Lander.

Here they are picked up by members of the circuhition staff who take them to the chapel, where they are dehvered to the students as they leave. The business manager usually has free reign to do as he sees fit about the business management of the paper, but he is theoreti- cally under the control of the editor. The Old Gold and Black is supported by a portion of the student activities fee, by receipts from advertising, and by subscrip- tions from the alumni. The paper is under the control of the Publications Board, which has a committee to oversee the affairs of the paper. The editor and business manager are both elected by this Board, which determines their salaries, and both are directly respon- sible to the Board. The editor and business manager are free to choose their own asso- ciates on the staff. PUBLICATIONS BOARD FACULTY MEMBERS Prof. J. L. Salmon, Cbairinaii Prof. W. R. Bourne Dr. a. Stanbury Prof. K. D. Coates STUDENT MEMBERS B. E. Sanders R. R- Watts C. G. HusKEY - J. A. Knight The Publications Board was formed in the spring of 193 6 by vote of the student body for the purpose of elect- ing the editors and business managers of the three pub- hcations and to control their finances. Instead of an editor being appointed by his predecessor, he is elected by ma- jority vote of the Board after having been nominated by his predecessor, by a student petition, or by a member of the Board. The same is true of the business managers. The Board has absolute control of all finances, approving all contracts and holding the editors and business man- agers personally responsible for all funds involved. The Board, composed of four faculty members, two seniors, one junior, and one sophomore, has done much in the way of improving the campus publications. MAJOR C. C. LOUGHLIN U. S. A.

THE PRESTON 7 HE Preston Literary So- ciety is one of the three - most active groups on the campus. It is also one of the oldest organizations at Wof- ford College and boasts many famous former members among the alumni. The Preston changes its officers each term. Only the treasurer is a permanent posi- tion for the year. All the major offices are filled from among the senior class; the secretary and the treasurer are from the junior class and the sergeant-at- arms is a sophomore. The program of the Preston, which meets each Friday night at seven-thirty, is usually very interesting. A typical program consists of two declamations, two essays, a debate and a monthly orator. Annually the society selects two men to represent it at the annual oratorical contest. This year G. D. Sanders, Jr., and S. T. Holland, Jr., were its contestants. The society is also represented in the Freshman Declamation and the Sophomore Exhibition. OFFICERS FIRST TERM R. C. Hill . . . President S. M. Dannelly, Vice-President L. C. WiLKERsoN .

However this group is not lacking in quality and interest. Four members are on the varsity debating team. These are: H. Snyder, J. Shands, R. Watts and O. Wood. The Calhoun also boasts the win- ner of the annual intersociety oratorical contest in Owens Wood, who spoke on South Carolina Faces the Sales Tax. This club has made a fundamental change in its weekly programs. A subject is read in the form of a bill to be presented to either the state assembly or the national congress and the members freely dis- cuss it as if they were members of that par- ticular assembly. Thus the program becomes more informal and more immediate good is de- rived from it. MEMBERS J. C. Anderson J. E. Cannon F. S. HOLCOMBE J. M. Ivy V. F. Platt J. N. Rogers J. Shands H. B. Snyder H. T.

Wood Secretary I THE CARLISLE ITH the trend today definitely leaning toward public speaking and its allied arts, it is fitting that recognition should be given to the organizations who promote these things. The Carlisle Literary Society is one of the oldest organizations on the campus, having been founded in 1905, and is one of the three organizations whose major emphasis is upon self-expression in the fields of public speaking and debating. It is the largest society of the three, boasting thirty-nine members. Interesting programs are planned and executed weekly with all of the members being given the opportunity to appear on the program several times each term. One program per month is devoted to extemporaneous speaking. Various members are called on by the presiding officer to give five-minute talks on subjects determined by him. Other functions, such as telling a humorous story, making a toast, or giving a critical commentary of the preceding talk are also practiced in these sessions. These meetings have been found to be more enthusiastically received than the regularly planned meetings. The society participates in all of the college ' s related fields such as: Freshman Declamation, Sophomore Exhibition, and the Oratorical Contest. Much interest has been shown in this field of extra-curricula activities this year and much fine training has been given to the members of the society. FIRST TERM J. C. X ' ALTON Vresident T. A.

This inter- est was manifested by the large group of candidates which reported for the tryouts last fall and by the gratifying attendance of the student body at the debates held here. This year ' s appropriation for de- bate was a substantial increase over any recent appropriation, thus making possible a greatly expanded program of activities. These activities included raising the number of varsity debates from six to twelve, participation in several tournaments, demonstration debates before high schools, increased emphasis upon the freshman team, and participation in a larger number of debates.

Control of debating is vested by the administration in the Gavel, honorary forensic fraternity, which has created the Debate Council to exert du ' ect super- vision over the debate activities. This council is composed of the debate man- ager, chairman, president of the Gavel, faculty adviser to de bate, all ex officio, and two members of the Gavel elected by that group. R. A. McCullough A.

The Wofford College Quartet has the en- viable reputation of being the best in the state. It is heard many times during the year on radio programs, at reUgious meetings and the regular concerts of the Glee Club proper. The quartet also makes trips with college representatives for publicity purposes and is always well received. A well balanced unit, it has provided much pleasure for those who have been so fortunate as to hear it. The Wofford College Glee Club is composed of sixty of the best student voices on the campus. Professor W. P. Price, prominent Spartanburg musician, is director for the fifteenth consecutive year. The Glee Club has built a very creditable reputation in the thirty odd years of its existence and has done much to train scores of outstanding musicians, including Benny DeLoach of the Metropolitan Opera Company, Walter Herbert of Atlanta, and others. The Terrier Aces, the collegiate orchestra, under the direction of Alvin Jolly, provides modernistic swing as an addition to the club concerts. As a special feature on this year ' s program the club presented its guest artist and former manager, George Withers, and his humorous skit: Snowdrift and the Seven Waffles. Thirty-five of the club ' s sixty members were selected to make a tour of several Carolina cities, which included Greenwood, Bam- berg, Sumter, Wadesboro, and Marion. The club was well received at all of the concerts it gave on its itinerary. WILSON P. PRICE Director J. C. ANDERSON Manaser, Glee Club W. B. SMITH Sudent Director, Glee Club A. S.

The course is for the purpose of stimulating the knowledge and -culture of Wofford students and friends by bringing ideas and personalities of famous people to the College. Dr. Gamewell, himself, is enough to attract celebrities to our college. He was voted this year to the Campus Column of Acclaim, the honor roll of the college. He was lauded by Life Magazine as being the oldest active professor in American colleges. The Lyceum Committee secured during the school year people who proved their greatness in every case. The first presentation of the year was Miss Elissa Landi, star of stage and screen. Miss Landi gave beneficial advice on stage and screen technique. Blanche Yurka, an eminent stage actress, came in January. Miss Yurka ' s program was interesting in that she did selections from several representative comedies. Incidentally, this Lyceum was the first in forty-two years that Dr. Gamewell missed. The well- known Uncle Gus was ill and unable to attend. Harold J. Brennan, artist, was brought to Wofford Campus for a two-day stay through the cooperation of the Lyceum and the faculty. LEFT TO RIGHT, FRONT ROW: Baukmsht, Hill, Thomasson.

Vice-President R. F. Patterson .... Secretary B. Lucas Treasurer THE Student Christian Association was organized in May of 193 8 to replace the Young Men ' s Christian Association as the center of rehgious activities on the campus. This change is more than a mere shift of name. The Y. M. C. A. worked both locally and nationally as a campus unit with only a nominal relationship with the church. The S. C. A. proposes to tie campus religious activities directly in 5 the church to which the students belong. By this move the S. C. A. hopes to prevent the college boy from losing connection with his church during the four years which he spends in college. The Student Christian Association continues to include every Wofford student in its membership and is supported by contributions of students in their Students ' Activity Fee. Every Thursday evening at 7:15 a meeting is held for worship and study. A varied program is presented. A typical program is as follows: A period of hymn singing, Scripture lesson, a short period of prayer and meditation. An inspiring address by a minister or an outstanding layman. Following the address an open forum is held con- cerning the speech and the meeting closes with a prayer of reconsecration. The S. C. A. sponsors the annual Religious Emphasis week held in February. The 1939 scries was conducted by Rev. R. F. Morris. This year the S. C. A. has purchased a new piano, one hundred hymnals and a new ping-pong table for the S. C. A. recreational hall. The S. C. A. tries to keep abreast of the religious movements in the colleges of the state. Representatives are sent to all the religious conf -ences sponsored by the students of the state. Some of the conferences are as follows: Young People ' s Leadership Conference at Lake Junaluska, Southern Baptist Stu- dents Conference, S. C. Methodist Student Cor rence and a number of others. Many have been greatly benefited cending these con- ferences. The S. C. A. works hand in hand with Sigma Tau Alpha in sending deputation teams to the various state and out of state colleges. During the year a number of deputations from other colleges are entertained by the S. C. A. Thep are eleven official mc bers of the S. C. A. These eleven men, known as the 3. C. A. Cabinet, transact all b siness that concerns the S. C. A. This year the or- ganization sponsored a reception for the new students of Wolford and Converse Colleges, a banquet, ping- pong tournament and several other extra-curricula activities. The S. C. A.

The organization has been quite active on the campus. It has regular semi-monthly meetings, usually well attended and featuring outstanding speakers. This year the group was addressed, among others, by Major G. Heyward Mahon, former Con- gressman. Governmental problems are freely discussed and democratic politics are also aired. Last year the chapter took an active part in campus politics. Although moderately successful at this, its only direct venture, the group this year unanimously voted to remain aloof from campus politics in the future. John Cantrell, a Wofford alumnus, is now National Executive Committeeman, and Bill Lander, a member of the local group, is State ])irector of College Or- ganizations. OFFICERS J. Shands President W.

Members are elected on the basis of their scholarship, character, and individual accomplishments. Individual accom- plishments are rated according to honor points awarded for offices held, responsible positions, etc. Membership is limited to juniors and seniors. This year ' s group has been unusually active in its service to the college. Blue Key has another accomplishment to add to its many services and activities. The principal contri- bution has been the purchase and erection of a first class public address system in the Andrews Field Ffouse for use at basketball games, recep- tions, and various other activities and cere- monies.

At its fortnightly meetings, subjects of international import are treated in well planned programs. Frequently, visiting speakers address the group. The International Relations Club endeavors to create among its members that better understanding of the for- eign situation necessary for the maintenance of peace. The local chapter sends representatives to the Southeast International Relations Club ' s Conference each spring and to various other gatherings. The annual banquet is held in May.

Sharpe President Secretary Treasurer ALPHA MISS Sigma Tau Alpha is a national honorary fraternity, the main purpose of wh ich is to encourage and develop Christian leader- ship. The Alpha chapter, established at Wofford November 18, 1937, is composed of all those desiring to develop themselves in this field and who will work in cooperation with one of the five departmental lines of activity. Monthly meetings of the entire fraternity were held this year for worship, business and mutual encouragement. Sigma Tau Alpha specializes in off-campus activities among which were in- cluded in 193 8-39 the supplying of numerous pulpits, the teach- ing of Sunday school classes, the assisting of young people ' s work, and a varied succession of musical contributions and news articles. The radio department conducted weekly programs over Station WBT in Charlotte and Station WIS in Columbia. Deputation teams were sent to colleges within a wide radius, and their teams were received on the campus in a spirit of cooperation and fellowship. The churches and Christian groups in Spartanburg and vicinity con- tributed valuable aid in encouragement throughout the entire college year, and the fraternity is looking forward to greater achievement along these lines and a lasting influence upon campus life. Membership can be obtained by invita- tion and is based upon a creditable class standing, a record of worthy service, and recognition of potential ability. A mem- ber may be dropped if he lapses in moral conduct, character, or effective interest. Membership to this fraternity includes non-ministerial students. This gives an opportunity to any student who may wish to become a member of the fra- RACHEL JONES ternity. Sponsor Youth today stands ready to serve. Top row. R. L. Murphy, J. C. Anderson, j. R.

It is one of thirty- four chapters of the organization which was founded in Birmingham, Alaba ma, in 1926. WofFord ' s chapter dates from 1927. The organization has for its purpose the drawing together of stu- dents interested in French language and culture. The local group has more or less regular meetings at which French essays are read, poetry recited and literature discussed. The feature of the club has been in years past a Christmas program, which was attended by students, their friends and visitors from other colleges. Active plans have been made for an Easter program. The members put much effort and preparation into these programs, whose success is due primarily to the efforts of Prof. J. L. Salmon, the faculty adviser for the organization.

It is no wonder for the fraternity was founded on this campus in 1929 by Dr. J. A. Chiles, head of the department of modern languages. The fra- ternity now has forty-one chapters, in schools from Maine to Florida and New York to Los Angeles. Alpha chapter has meetings at which various phases of Ger- man life and literature are discussed. Literary figures being currently studied in advanced German classes are favored in consideration. LEFT TO RIGHT: Moser, Kapps, Holroyd, Cecil, Williams, Rhoad, Hish, Hartley, Gladden, Chiles. The fraternity seeks to provide an incentive for the study of the German language by bestowing the honor of its membership on all graduates and undergraduates who have completed two years of college German. Because of this, interest runs high in the club. The fraternity has a chapter room in the east wing of the main building. f r SIGMA UPSILON Sigma Upsilon, national honorary fraternity for students showing ability and interest in literary endeavor, was founded in 1906. Canterbury chapter was established at Wofford in 1926. The fraternity has held bi-monthly sessions in which various topics per- taining to writing and publications were discussed. The policy and status of the Old Gold and Black and of The ]ott.rnal have been the chief interests of the organization during the current year. Both the paper and magazine have been constructively criticised. Since all of Sigma Upsilon ' s members are staff members of the various publications, such criticism has served to improve the works of the writers. At regular meetings individual articles written by members were criticised constructively, serving to stimulate endeavor through helpful suggestions. As in every phase of campus activities, Sigma Upsilon takes the lead in the publications, having the editors of the Bohemian and The journal and business manager of the Bohemian among its members. Significant, too, is the fact that three of the four members of the Senior Order of Gnomes come from the ranks of the Sigma Upsilon Literary Fraternity. Sigma Upsilon finds its distinction in its leadership, the informality of its meetings, and especially in that its work is constructive. OFFICERS S. M. Dannelly President W. H. Gladden, Jr. . . .

Every two weeks the fraternity sponsors some form of social entertainment, usually a wiener roast, banquet, smoker or dance in a home of an alumnus. Each year the alumni of Spartanburg sponsor a Sailor ' s Ball, which is characteristic of the fraternity. The port for the ball this year was the Woman ' s Club, April 21, 1939.

This is a valuable asset for it insures cooperation in many of the undertakings of the fraternity. The Wofford chapter is the third oldest chapter of the fraternity and boasts the miembership of Dr. J. A.

Jim Patch was a basketball star, along with Pep Coan and John Shuler, who also are stalwarts on the tennis team. Folk and Goode are Blue Key men. Goode is vice-president of the S. C. A. Five members of the College Glee Club were Kappa Alphas. The Kappa Alphas did well in intermural competition. They won the vol- leyball tournament and were runners-up in the touch football series. Parties were given about once a month for the members by friends and alumni in town, as well as informal dances and evening socials. A Lee ' s Birthday Banquet was held at the Cleveland Hotel. The tra- ditional Farmers ' Ball was given for the fraternity at the Woman ' s Club. Costumes were overalls and gingham.

The first American chapter was founded at the University of Virginia on December 10, 1 8 69, and the chapter at Wofford in 18 94. Kappa Sigma has 107 chapters in universities and colleges, all in the United States except one at the University of Toronto, Canada. These chapters are distributed through every state except Connecticut, Delaware, and Nevada. Kappa Sigma was the first national fraternity to have more than 100 active chapters. Kappa Sigma owns 93 chapter houses at as many colleges, these buildings being valued at approximately $3,000,000. Kappa Sigma is one of only two fraternities to publish a magazine for its members monthly during the college year and issues to every initiate a subscription for life. The Alpha Nu Ch apter of Kappa Sigma, at Wofford, is represented in extra-curricula activities as follows: President of Honor Council; manager of basketball team; baseball team; track team; business man- ager of the Glee Club; four members in the Glee Club; members in the I. R. C; Scabbard and Blade; Beta Pi Theta; Sigma Tau Alpha, and nine members in the advance corps of the R. O. T.

Pi chapter was estab- lished at Wofford College from the local Phi Alpha Epsilon in 193 5. Kappa Sigma Kappa takes a prominent place in the leadership of the campus publications with Sheldon Dannelly as editor of T oe Journal and feature editor of the Bohemian. He is also president of the Pan-Hellenic Council and of Sigma Upsilon, and is a member of Sigma Tau Alpha, Blue Key, I. R. C, and is one of the four members of the Senior Order of Gnomes. From the Junior Class are Bill Lander, associate editor of the Bohemian, managing editor of the OIil Gold and Black and president of the Gavel; and Curly Crosby, photographic editor for the Bohemian. Through graduation the fraternity loses four seniors: Dallas Rey- nolds, three-year, pre-medical and high-ranking honor student, who is a member of Chi Beta Phi, I. R. C, and Sigma Tau Alpha; Clarence Chapman of the varsity football squad, and member of I. R. C; Leon Wilkerson of The Journal and Old Gold and Black staffs and Sigma Tau Alpha, and Sheldon Dannelly, under whose leadership Kappa Sigma Kappa has functioned this year. Since the annual homecoming celebration activities, numerous par- ties, suppers and house dances have provided entertainment for the members and friends of the fraternity. One of the most enviable functions was a spring mountain party at the summer home of two Kappa Sigma Kappas. The year ' s social calendar was rounded out into a grand finale with the annual alumni spring formal dance. Active plans are being drawn up for summer house-parties at a nearby beach. MEMBERS S. M.

Guilds, Jr Treasttrcr MISS ISABEL SANDERS Pi Kappa Phi was founded on December 10, 1904, at the College of Charleston. A small, but earnest, group of eight students faced over- whelming odds in nursing the young fraternity through its infancy. The next chapter to be added was Beta at Presbyterian College, Clinton, S. C; all other institutions at this time prohibited fraternity chapters. The national destiny of Pi Kappa Phi was assured in 1908 when Gamma chapter was established at the University of South Carolina. Zeta chapter was aflSliated in 1911 at Wolford College. The chap- ter grew rapidly. The World War interfered with activities and no active work was undertaken in 1916-19. The Pi Kapps reaped ten promising pledges for the fraternal seeds they had sown during rushing season. Among the pledges were a number of athletes. Bud Burnett, Tris McDonald, Rone Lowe were members of the freshman football team. Harvey Atwater was tackle on the varsity. Arthur Hammond and Bud Burnett were also on the freshman basketball team. Among the senior members are notable students. F. I. Brownley, Jr., is a member of Blue Key, Senior Order of Gnomes, I. R. C, and is business manager of the Bohemian. S. W. Burnett is president of Chi Beta Phi, honorary scientific society, and member of the I. R. C. B. E. Sanders is a member of the Scabbard and Blade and Chi Beta Phi. He represented Wofford ' s Company in national convention of Scabbard and Blade at Berkeley, California. Several members of the fraternity are on the Bohemian Staff, and the staffs of the Old Gold iind Blacti and T jc Journal. The social side of the Pi Kappa Phi is similar to that of the other fraternities on the campus. The chapter maintains an average of one social event every two weeks. The outstanding social affairs of the year were the annual banquet held December 8th, at Mrs. Manning ' s and the annual dance held at the Woman ' s Club, March 31. These two events are highlights in the Pi Kappa Phi social season. Although primarily a social organization, scholarship is a respected qualification in the fraternity. The aim of the fraternity is to stimu- late its members in the two important college fields, social and scholastic. MEMBERS F. I. Brownley, Jr., ' 39 W. C. Bradwell, ' 41 S. W. BuRNi XT, Jr., ' 39 R.

Francis Garrett is a varsity tennis and basketball star. Hugo Sims is president of the Freshman Class. Spec Kapps and Ramon Holroyd are members of Delta Phi Alpha. The Sigma Alpha Epsilons take great interest in the Glee Club and some are prominently featured in its programs. The fraternity is well represented in the I. R. C. and honor societies. Founder ' s Day Banquet was held March 4th at the Cleveland Hotel. Several fraternity parties were held during the course of the year at Nandina Place. S. C. Gamma plans a house party to take place in the middle of the summer at Pawley ' s Island. The Spartanburg alumni gave a dance in honor of the active chapter at the Spartanburg Armory April 14th. The Sigma Alpha Epsilons removed from their old location in the Skalowski Building to the Greenwald Building. The hall, overlooking Main Street, is comfortably and efficiently furnished for the conveni- ence of the members for use as a weekly meeting place and for in- formal gatherings. Members of the local chapter attended Founder ' s Day celebrations given by the Furman and University of South Carolina chapters.

There is nothing more moving, nothing more Hkely to turn one ' s thoughts toward the more solemn things. There are some beautiful portions of the ceremony that inspire one and there are some morbid portions that bring a lump to one ' s throat and tear at his heart strings. The ceremonies begin with the awarding of commissions to the R. O. T. C. graduates early Saturday afternoon with the Class Day Exercises following later on. These exercises are traditionally held on the lawn in front of the Main Building. Sunday comes with baccalaureate sermons, one by Dr. Snyder. Then the big day arrives. The graduation proper begins late in the morning with the Senior Processional, followed by the speeches, and concluded with the distribution of diplomas and de- grees. The crowds leave, the campus becomes quiet and the college is left with the memory of another group of young men, and another commencement . . . CAMERA Who, me? 2. Goodbye, terriers. 3. Hold stil 4.

PPRECI ATION I HE work involved in the publishing of a college annual is seldom realized. Much credit should be given to the staff. The editor appreciates the yeoman service rendered by the members of his staff. The detailed work of Lewis Sharpe, Sheldon Dannell y and Bill Lander was indispensable. Alex McCullough, Bill Hicks and Ralph Atkinson are responsible for the fine work done on the sports. In- valuable were the services rendered by the student photographers, Emerson Ford, Bob Major and Curly Crosby (while he wasn ' t Boofy- fied). The business manager was ably assisted in his collections and soliciting by his efficient assistants, Jim Shands, DeWitt Guilds, Burt Mitchell, Leroy Overcash and Happy Miller. Many are apt to give all of the credit to the staff. However, there are three other forces which combine in the creation of a yearbook. These are, namely: Photography, engraving and printing. To Charles Gerrell, of Van Dyke Studios, too much cannot be said about the fine cooperation and the high quality of photography which he pro- duced. Then, due credit must be given to Walt Dargan of the Photo-Process Engraving Co. for his keen interest, helpful suggestions, and enthusiasm which he displayed as he worked toward the comple- tion of this volume. These things, coupled with the untiring efforts of John Long of the Foote Davies Printing Co., whose ever-ready suggestions and solutions to many problems have made the book as it stands. To this list we must add the name of Professor W. R. Bourne, our faculty adviser. To these persons mentioned, and many other contributors, we take this means of giving our sincere thanks and assure you that it was appreciated . . . SPARTANBURG, S. C. A Christian College . . .
