J ' STUDENT BODY OF WOFFORD COLLEGE PRESENTS BOHEMIAN Q40 W. T. LANDER, JR. . . Edkor-,n-Chief JAMES SHANDS . . Business T anager STUDENTS AT WOFFOPiD... 1 PAUSE eae ( .au at T 7 WOFFORD The present Senior Class at Wofford has seen epochal advances in the progress of the college. 5 Considerable amounts have been added to the material resources of the mstitution. The endowment has been substantially increased and new scholarships are now available. The curriculum has been expanded; a number of new courses, includmg an entire division of aeronautics, are now open to students. The faculty has been increased by the addition of several new teachers. J The alumni association is now well organized and has a full-time etary to handle its affairs. The new athletic program, initiated last fall, bids fair to ucceed. Debate activities have been reorganized. A chapter of Pi Gamma Mu, national honorary social science fraternity, has been established. Finally, but by no means least, is the assurance that a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa will be established here next fall. 5 The present Senior Class is happy and proud to have been here during this period of great seer s In the Laboratory progress. We look forward eagerly to a future of even greater usefulness and progress for our college. We are proud that we are Wofford men , an I tL MAKE-UP--- The Bohemian of 1940 has a number of changes from the annuals of the past several years. The student will notice that the divisions are not arranged as they were last year, and that the content of these divisions varies somewhat from the customary. J This year ' s Bohemian has a beauty section — the first in several years. It is hoped that this will prove an added attraction for the reader. J The annual represents the best efforts of the entire staff. We sincerely hope that you like it ! TO THESE TWO GREATLY ADMIRED AND DEEPLY RE- SPECTED MEN, WHO BY PROFOUND SCHOLARSHIP, STRONG MORAL CONVICTION, AND INSPIRATIONAL TEACHING HAVE SO GENEROUSLY CONTRIBUTED TO THE UPBUILDING OF WOFFORD COLLEGE, THIS, THE 1940 BOHEMIAN IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED.

' Jl p res id A view of the Main Building ENT HENRY NELSON SNYDER, A.B., A.M., LL.D., Litt.D. President of Wofford College Dr. Snyder is widely known and greatly admired as an educator and churchman. His work at Wofford is of the highest order. However, his contributions to the held oi education are not limited to the presidency of Wofford College. He is a productive scholar, the author of several books; and he has served on the State Board of Education and as a member of his church ' s General Board of Christian Education. An orator of note. Dr. Snyder has a combination of those qualities which make men of genius. 4 wo F FORD a I ARTHUR MASON DuPRE, A.B., M.A., Wofford College ; LL.D., Furman University Dean; Professor of Tdathematics and Latin Dean A. Mason DuPre is one of Wofford ' s great- est assets. Since he entered Wofford College forty-nine years ago as a fresKman he has never lost his connection with the institutio n. First as headmaster of the fitting school, then as profes- sor, and finally as dean of the college he is justly regarded as a man of deep moral conviction, of profound scholarship, and of absolute justice m his dealings with everyone. Few Wofford men are more universally admired and respected.

THE PUBLICATIONS BOARD The Publications Board was founded in 1935 by vote of the student body. The membership consists of four faculty members named by the president of the coll ege and four students. Of the students two are elected from the Senior Class and one each from the Junior and Sophomore Classes. J The Board elects the editors and business managers of the Bohemian, Old Gold and Black, and Journal. It has strict control over the financial affairs of the publications, though it has no voice in editorial questions. The Board meets regularly on the first Tuesday of each month.

It also takes the lead in sponsoring inter-fraternity affairs. 25 WOFFORD ' S Q n YEARBOOK The Bohemian, the Wofford College an- nual, is intended to be a pictorial history of the school year. It contains almost in- numerable pictures with write-ups. J The Bohemian is a rather considerable busi- ness venture. By close economy and ad- vantageous contracts the price of pic- tures has been materially reduced over a period of several years. Most of the credit for this is due to the persistent efforts of Professor Bourne, the faculty adviser. J All annuals represent a tre- mendous amount of work on the part of their staffs, and this annual is no excep- tion. The book IS a product of the com- bined efforts of the staff, faculty adviser, photographer, engraver, and printer. We hope it meets with your approval !

First published in 1889 under the editorship of such men as Senator E. D. Smith, Dr. W. P. Few and the late Bishop E. D. Mouzon, the November issue of the fiftieth an- niversary year contained contributions from Senator Smith and Dr. Few; and throughout the succeeding issues articles by prominent alumni writers were featured. J At the State Colle- giate Press Association convention held at Cle mson College in November, articles having appeared in The Journal won three first places, outdistancing all other publications in the state in this respect. J Besides the usual run of short stories, poems and essays, the contents of this year ' s issues included a greater variety of interviews, sketches, features and pictures than ever before. 5 Thus the editor attempted to mod- ernize the appearance and content of the maga- zine, retaining at the same time the true literary merit of the publication.

The Old Gold and Black is Wofford ' s weekly newspaper, published by and for the students of the college. The paper, until 1935 was published spasmodically, usually from ten to fifteen issues yearly. In 1935 the Publications Board took over the control of publications and issues appeared regularly at two-week intervals. For the school year 1938-39 the paper was published weekly as an experiment and this year it has continued on that schedule as a permanent policy. J The Old Gold and Black is a valuable news agency for the campus and the community, containing news stories, feature articles, sports write- ups, editorials, and gossip. It is eagerly read each Saturday by the students. The paper frequently carries illustrations. It is printed on substantial paper, and is usually well written and edited. 5 The paper is financed by local and national adver- tising, by student activities funds, and by subscription funds. GLIMPSE a t Unknowns! The primary purpose of a college annual IS to show college life as it is — work as well as play. The Wofford student does his full share of work m the classroom, in the library, and in the laboratory. Wofford College is an educational in- stitution of the highest order. As such, it expects and receives much from its students. Favored by a fine and well- stocked library and excellent scientific laboratories, the student finds opportu- nity for creative efforts in the field of scholarship. In this he is aided and 32 0 F : ti tden t wat guided by his professors. J The profes- sors seek to find and cultivate any special aptitudes the student may have, and thus develop in the student a strong personality, f Many courses require a specified amount of parallel reading. Practically all the science courses re- quire laboratory periods. The boys accept all this philosophically. Extra curricular activities and social life are fun, but after all, college is an educational institution, and it does require work — a lot of it.

Ariail Vice-President B. L. Mitchell Secretary W. R. Hicks Treasurer R. F. Patterson Historian HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS Four years ago a new group of boys came to this campus. They came from all directions and many states. This group, like all others, had a purpose m coming to Wofford. This purpose stood out more in some than in others— but at least all had big ideas. 5 As the years have passed, these men have shown their prowess m numerous fields. Some have interested themselves in religion, science, ath- letics, and even politics. Yes— this group had its share of talent and has displayed it tremendously in the years spent at Wofford. ? After the happy days m college we linger and are very reluctant in departing. As we came from all parts of the country, we leave for we know not where. But one thing we shall have in common —the Wofford tradition and spirit which has been instilled into our souls as students of this institution. r. c r R. F.

Guilds Historian HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS The saying A guy ' s wisest days are his sophomore days is often pinned on a helpless sophomore merely because he tries to instill the same school spirit m freshmen that was emphasized so strongly his freshman year. But now, we, the junior class of 1939-40 have passed that milestone and have entered into the last half of our college career. Among us are men that are very promising in scholarship, politics, and athletics. Quite a number of men on the athletic teams are juniors. As usual, we lost a number of men at the beginning of the school year, but they were replaced by others who transferred here from junior col- leges. 5 Shortly after our return to school in September twenty-six of us were chosen for the advanced corps of the R. O. T. C. This was a welcomed honor for the fortunate ones, and now we look with enthusiasm to our six weeks at camp and to our senior year when we will be commissioned officers. J Now that each of us has acquired through these past three years a knowledge of how to take advantage of every opportunity and how to make social contacts we feel confident that we can fill the vacancy that will be left in June by the senior class of 1940.

Bell Historian HISTORY OF SOPHOMORE CLASS If one has never had the honor of being called a sophomore, he knows not the feeling that goes along with the name. As a sophomore, he is at last m a place where his word bears force. As freshmen, we entered college feelmg we knew almost everything; but the upperclassmen soon let us know just how dumb we were. Naturally we resented this; but our resentment gave way to the realization that it was only for our good, and that we were not being lorded over by the sophomores. Keeping in mind all that we had learned, we returned to start the class of ' 43 on the straight and narrow road of college life. 5 Our class has given to the football squad several players who will long be remembered for their service, and we expect some of them to lead the march of the Terriers in ' 41. We gave several men to the basketball squad and we are looking forward to hearing great things of them. We gave our all to the tennis and track teams. We have a number of scholars, and many of our men have been chosen for places in the honorary fraternities. We also have our speakers, debaters, and a few excellent politicians — all in all, we have a class to be remembered. R. L. H. BelL 62 m L (- ' C. C. Ariail, Jr Greenville, S. C. C. E.

Even though we were greatly puzzled, we certainly enjoyed the set-ups; the total of all the boys pledged by fraternities was eighty-one. 5 Thirty-five made the Dean ' s List and eighteen placed on the Glee Club or Terrier Aces Orchestra. Six of these went on the annual tour. 5 The freshman football team didn ' t fare so well, but the basketball team more than made up for any setbacks. 5 Among the many activities that we entered into were debates, declamation contests, religious duties, intramural sports and a newly installed aviation course. 5 Now that the shock, disappointment, surprise, and adjustment have been experienced, we know that there ' s nothing anywhere like college life.

Many men who have received public recog- nition in the state and nation once graced the halls of the Preston Literary Society. J Since membership in literary societies was made voluntary by action of the faculty, the Preston, along with the other societies, has not had as active a membership as would be most desirable for a literary organ- ization. It continues, however, in the face of difficulties, to give the students at Wofford a chance to express themselves in writing and in speech before a group. It affords the students an opportunity to develop and strengthen the powers of the mind. % All offi cers of the P reston are elected to serve for one term with a single exception; the exception being the treas- urer who IS elected to serve the entire school year.

Pi cKapter was installed at Wof- ford College from the local Phi Alpha Epsilon in 1935. 5 The Pi chapter of Kappa Sigma Kappa is well rep- resented in extra-curricular activities as follows : editor of the Bohemian, associate editor of the Old Gold and Black, president of Pi Gamma Mu, past president of the Gavel, president of the Preston Literary Society, chairman of the Senior Invitations Committee, assist- ant manager of the basketball team, photo editor of the Bohemian; and members in the following groups: debating team, literary societies, I. R. C, Gavel, Sigma Tau Alpha, Chi Beta Phi, B. S. U. Council, and Sigma Upsilon. 5 One member of K. S. K. has been listed in two volumes of Who ' s Who In American Colleges and Universities. Several members are on the editorial and business staffs of the various pub- lications. Three men are in the advanced corps of the R. O. T. C. unit, g The fraternity has had many social functions during the year. Parties and dances have been held periodically at the homes of friends in Spar- tanburg. Plans are now being made for a house party either in the mountains or at a nearby beach. MISS MARY LeGRANDE Sponjor MEMBERS AND PLEDGES J. O. Crosby, Jr. W. T. Lander, Jr. E. A. Bradley, Jr. R. L.

The World War inter- fered with activities and no active work was undertaken during the years 1916-19. J A successful rushing season was held and twenty new men were pledged. Most of these pledges are active in college activities. Several are active in the Glee Club, the Terrier Aces, and the mem- bers of the freshman basketball squad. J Harv Atwater and Bud Burnett are members of the varsity football squad. Several of their members belong to the Chi Beta Phi, Delta Phi Alpha, International Relations Club and the Stratford Players. Several of the members hold offices on the business staff of the Bohemian. J The outstanding social affairs of the fraternity were the annual Founder ' s Day Banquet, held at the Franklin Hotel, and the annual Spring Dance held on April 5, 1940, at the Woman ' s Club. These two outstanding events along with parties given throughout the year constituted the social calendar of the fraternity. J Although primarily a social organization, scholarship is a respected qualification in the fraternity. The aim of the fraternity is to stimulate its members in the two important college fields, social and scholastic. CRAWFORD DENSON FINCH HALLMAN HIPP HOWELL JENNINGS WILLIAMS WOOLBRIGHT i SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON MISS EDITH FORD Sponsor The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity was founded in 1856 at the University of Alabama. South Carolina Gamma chapter was established m 1885 and re-estab- lished in 1923 after being inactive for a number of years because of anti-fraternity regulations. J Of nine new men pledged during the year, six were initiated into active membership in January, making a total of twenty-five active members in the chapter. 5 The chapter is credited with a number of outstanding students and leaders on the campus. George Richardson, president of the chapter, is also presi- dent of the Pan-Hellenic Council, a member of International Relat ions Club, Chi Beta Phi, and Scabbard and Blade, honorary organizations. Henry Snyder is a writer and debater in addition to being president of Students ' Christian Asso- ciation. Francis Garrett, varsity tennis and bask etball star, is also a member of Blue Key, and other honorary organizations. The fraternity is well represented in practically all activities on the campus. 5 Founder ' s Day Banquet was held M arch 2 at the Cleveland Hotel. There were several fraternity parties, including steak suppers m the mountains; and the crowning social affair was a Spring Dance given in honor of the local chapter by the Spartanburg alumni. The fraternity will have a house party dur- ing the summer at Pawley ' s Island. J At the beginning of the year the members completed adjustments necessary after moving into a new location. The three rooms the ch apter uses in the Greenwald Building were well painted and furnished. 5 This school year was an active one for the fraternity. The members exchanged visits with the chapters at Furman and the University of South Carolina, attending Founder ' s Day celebrations and parties. MEMBERS AND PLEDGES W. J. Chapman R. L. Holroyd F.

Richardson LAMBDA CHI ALPHA MISS FRANCES COLVIN Sponsor Lambda Chi Alpha was founded at Boston University October 1, 1909. Lambda Chi Alpha stands third among national fraternities with 107 chapters. Its position was strengthened when it amalgamated with Theta Kappa Nu, another strong national fraternity, late in the summer of 1939. J Kappa Omicron-Zeta was es- tablished at Wofford May 15, 1926. The fraternity occupies comfortable quarters above Boyd ' s Dress Shop on East Main Street. As the hall is modernly equipped it provides an ideal meeting place for informal social life of the members. 5 The chapter has an active interest in campus activities. A. J. Hydrick, president of the fraternity, is a member of the Gavel and the Pan-Hellenic Council. James Shands is president of the Beta Pi Theta, member of the International Relations Club and is business manager of the Bohemian. Ruple Harley is president of the Stratford Players and a member of the Pan-Hellenic Council. M. L. Collins is a member of Beta Pi Theta. J A glance at the activity schedule of the chapter shows that the chapter was extremely busy. K. P. Richardson was the dele- gate to the convention at Birmingham, Alabama. October 15 was observed by the chapter as Union Day, commem- orating the merger between Lambda Chi Alpha and Theta Kappa Nu. Sev- eral parties and informal gatherings were enjoyed by the members. Ed Bash, retiring traveling secretary of the national fraternity, visited the chapter for a few days in October. Tozier Brown, new traveling secretary, was entertained by a party and an in- formal supper given in his honor. J Late in March, true to Lambda Chi Alpha tradition, the annual banquet and dance was given by the fraternity. It was a colorful affair which rounded out a year of great activity. 128 et a T MEMBERS AND PLEDGES A. J. Hydrick, Jr. James anas L. R. Harley K. P. Richardson A. A. Brockman M. L. Collins J. E.

Assistant Football Coach; Coach of Freshman Basketball Lyles Alley Freshman Football Coach W. A. Dotherow Assistant Football Coach ROBERTSON The wind was strong ; tke angle, bad; the distance, too far. He wouldn ' t make it. But— he did! And Wof- ford ' s Homecoming Day was a success because of the beautiful field goal from High Point ' s twenty-six yard Manager Shuler hurries with the water bucltet. tense THE GRIDIRON line. Tke old grads ' came to see this new ath- letic set-up introduced this year on our campus — and went back home satisfied. J No, we did not turn out a championship football team this year; but the improvement was remarkable. With material that was no better than m previ- ous years, Coaches Carson and Dickens sent out on the field on Saturdays a team that had the spirit for which we have been looking for years. To that mysterious spark and to a feeling of co- operation which makes eleven men into one team, we give credit for the difference between a poor and a successful season. FOOTBALL Taggart starts off tackle against Erskine. Top to bottom: DICK ROUQUIE Senior, Back BUD BURNETT Sophomore, Back GIL CLOER Junior, Tackle ai L THE GRID THE GAMES WOFFORD 0— MERCER 12 The Mercer Bears invaded Snyder Field expecting an easy victory, but at the half the score was still 0-0. Time and again they had driven into Wofford territory only to be stopped by the stubborn Terrier forward wall. 5 Unable to go through, they went over; and the last two quarters each yielded a touchdown set up by passes. 5 The Terriers had started the season with a defeat, but they had showed John Q. Football-Fan that no matter what the size of the opponents, they were not letting any one through the line. WOFFORD 0— NEWBERRy 0 The T erriers surprise d the state by their performance at Newberry. Meeting the highly favored Indians under the floodlights they not only stopped the strong redskin offense, but showed a surprising offense themselves. J Outplaying the Indians m almost every phase of the game, they kept the ball in Newberry territory almost the full four quarters; and twice drove past the five-yard line only to lose the ball without scoring. WOFFORD 0— OGLETHORPE 0 After this game we began to despair of ever seeing another touchdown. It was a brilliant display of defensive power on the part of the Terriers in stopping the deceptive Oglethorpe plays but the offensive shown the week before at Newberry was missing. RON Left to right: REV. ATKINSON Senior, Bacl BERT DANIELS Junior, End JOE ROBERTSON Junior, Center WOFFORD 0— ERSKINE 6 This one was the big disappointment of the year. Every team has its off-days. This was ours. 5 The two teams battled on even terms most of the game, but a few seconds off guard gave the Seceders a score and the game. 5 Late in the fourth quarter the Terrier ball-carriers got under way and worked the ball down to the Erskine eight-yard line — first and goal to go. Here was a story-book ending about to rob Erskine of her Homecoming glory, but Elias and Company bogged down here and the chance was lost. WOFFORD 3— HIGH POINT 0 Homecoming Day! And the gala crowd of the season freezing in the stands watched Milt Maness boot a perfect field goal from the twenty-six yard line to win the game. J It was not the most spec- tacular game of the season but it was highly satisfying. Led by Captain Workman, the line kept the goal line uncrossed again, keep- ing at the same time a noteworthy record of having yielded only eighteen points in the first five games. J Wofford so outplayed the visiting Panthers that the lowness of the score did not give sufficient credit to the Terrier attack. Top to bottom: ROCK MABRY Junior, Back TERRY CARR Junior, Guard JOHNNY WORKMAN Senior, Guard NEETUM BAGWELL Senior, Back HARRY STOCKDALE Sophomore, Guard WOFFORD 0— HAMPDEN-SYDNEy 14 Journeying into Virginia the Terrier aggregation battled a strong Hampden-Sydney team on a nearly even plane — if we may judge by the first downs and yardage gained — but trailed by two touchdowns at the final whistle. J Two long, spectacular runs netted Hampden-Sydney her two scores. No sustained drives of any length could be made through the lighter, but scrapping Wofford line. Wofford carried the ball to the Hampden-Sydney two-yard line but failed to reach pay-dirt. JIM 5WITZER Senior, Tackle BILL HICKS Senior, Back BOB MOORE Senior, End JACK TAGGART Junior, Back AUS YONGUE Junior, End FINAL W H S T L E WOFFORD 12— P. C. 12 Then comes the game of the year; Wofford versus P. C, generally ad- mitted the best of the South Carolma Little-Four this season. We have our doubts about that. J Marked by long, brilliant runs, the entire sixty minutes of action kept the spectators on the edges of the seats. 5 P- drew first blood; then Elias evened the score, taking a well-timed pass from Jack Taggart just over the goal. Again P. C. tallied; but with only a few minutes left in the game a short plunge by Bud Burnett carried the ball over. Score tied! And the try for the extra point would tell the tale. But Maness ' kick was blocked. Final results: Wofford 12— P. C. 12; the crowd, minus three thousand voices. 139 WILBUR STEVENS Sophomore, Bacic CHINK ELIAS Junior, Back MILT MANESS Junior, Back ED TURNER Junior, Tackle WOFFORD 2— THE CITADEL 21 rigure this one out, II you can. Wofford outplayed The Citadel in al- most every department, looking better on the books in both yardage and first downs earned, yet lost by three touchdowns ! 5 Little Ralph Rev. Atkinson provided the highlights of the game. Playing his last game before a crowd of ten thousand, he broke loose for several long gains. 5 Other seniors seeing their last game in the Wofford uniform were Captain Johnny Workman, Poof Covington, Bob Moore, Dick Rouquie, Bill Hicks, Bill Buhrman, and Neetum Bagwell. J And so, the first team under the new regime leaves a record of one victory, three ties, and five defeats. Yes, it can be improved upon — and it will be — but at least we have proved we can play good football when the odds are against us. A little more punch when we get within the op- ponents ' ten-yard line, and — well, we shall be looking for that in next year s team. Left to right front kneeling: M. B.

COACH LYLES ALLEY ' JL F R O S H PLAY FOOTBALL One victory, two ties, two defeats. Not bad. Pups. 5 CoacK Lyles Alley ' s freshman team battled two strong junior college teams to scoreless ties m their hrst two games. The first, against Brevard, was a draw in almost every department; and the Wofford freshmen lacked only a little experience and — a score. J For their second encounter the Pups traveled to Mars Hill and held the favored Mars Hill Lions to a second scoreless tie. J They lost the next one to P. C. freshmen at Chester to the tune of 13-7, scoring the touchdown on a pass from Moody to Coleman. 5 The thriller of the freshman season came against Erskine ' s frosh. Marked with long runs and brilliant goal-line defense, the game was one of the best of the year from the standpoint of the spectator. The only score came in the third quarter when Moody smashed through for forty yards and a touchdown. 5 In their final game, the Pups dominated the f rst half, leading the Davidson freshmen 13-6 at the half-time period; but a fierce passing attack swept over three Davidson touchdowns and the final gun of the season found our Wofford freshmen trailing 13-25. 141 O N T H E h- LU Coach Robertson ' s baske tball proteges racked up 13 victories to six defeats to wind up in second place in the South Carolina state race. After the regular season they received a bid to the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association tournament in Bowling Green, Kentucky, on the basis of the best S. I. A. A. record in the state — nine won and two lost; but lost in the first round Manager Peabody (right) and Assistant Manager Major.

SHULER HARDWOOD I to the strong defending champions, and winners of the tourna- ment, Western University of Kentucky. 5 Beginning the 1940 season with a successful southern trip, the Terriers trimmed Mercer at Macon and Pensacola Flyers at Pensacola, Florida, then dropped one to the same team before traveling to De Land to take two straight from Stetson ' s Hatters. J Evidently the boys had not fully recovered from traveling when they lost the first home game to Erskine 19-33, playing ragged ball. Looking much better later in the week, they sent Newberry ' s Indians back home on the short end of a 39-30 score. But the Erskine jinx popped up again and the Terrier five lost again 30-22 at Due West. 5 A miracle team faced Furman two nights later on the Wofford court and the favored Paladins were swamped by a 52-37 tidal wave as Shuler and Flynn ran wild with 17 and 16 points, respectively. Then followed a successful Charleston trip with victories over the Citadel, 45-39, and the College of Charles- ton, 31-23, plus two more wins away from home over Newberry, 50-39, and P. C. 29-24 — which made all eyes of South Carolina ' s basketball public turn to Wofford ' s Five Iron Men, The Sur- prise Team of the year. J Not even a close loss to Furman in Greenville by a 49-45 score worried anyone much for the Terriers came right back to sweep aside Stetson by a 31-21 score, the College of Charleston 42-27, and Presbyterian College 47-32. J Having cinched the second position in the state race and a bid to the S. I. A. A. tournament, and favoring a bad charley-horse, a turned ankle and a sprained toe, the Terrier hoopmen let up in the last two games, losing to the Citadel 28-23 and to Mercer 47-41. 5 And so we toss laurels to Coach Roy Robertson and his scrappy Terriers for a fine season. They were smaller than most of their opponents in size, but larger in scoring. Five of the six depended on this year to do most of the work will be back next year. We warn the other teams of the state now — watch out! CLARK FLYNN GARRETT ROBERTSON COAN FRESHMAN About a score reported for practice when the call was issued for Freshman bas- ketball. The team boasted speed and height plus a bit of deception. J The squad had a better than average season. Under the tutelage of Coach Dickens the team exhibited a surprising fight and skill on the floor. J The group boasts a number of men who will make valuable varsity material next year.

From early in the fall with the advent of touch football through the year with basketball, volleyball, and ending with Softball 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. 5 Every season the competition becomes stiffer. Touch football assumes the aspect of the real thing at times. Basketball puts a high premium 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 intra- mural competition. J 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. J A feeling of fraternity, good sportsmanship, and friendly rivalry is created through this directed program. BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS Carlisle Hall Non-Fraternity Number One Left to right: D. C.

After sev- eral disastrous seasons of foot- ball the college decided to grant a number of athletic scholar- ships and strengthen the coach- ing staff. The college also em- ployed Major LeRoy Hill Cox of the class of 1924 as Alumni Sec- retary. In this capacity he has part in the administration of the program which is financed jointly by the citizens of Spartanburg, the alumni, and the college itself. 5 The plan is to find those men whose athletic ability and scho- lastic standing make them desir- able holders of the scholarships and bring them to Wofford. It is hoped to improve not only the athletic situation in this way, but F,eshmen look 90°d Down the C V;he gate. • - he ball. also to secure a group of students who will maintain a creditable scholastic average. J This year the plan was launched and operated on a small scale. The coaching staff was greatly strengthened by the addition of Phil Dickens as assistant football coach and coach of freshman basketball. A number of promising high school seniors were granted athletic scholarships and made a promising showing on the football field. These men were tutored by Lyles Alley, former Furman star. Several junior college men were secured and made valuable additions to the varsity squad. J The season — not as good as it could have been, but a decided improvement. The teams in all intercollegiate contests showed a remarkable spirit and persistence. This spirit — this failure to quit when the odds were against them, sometime turned defeat into victory. J We think the plan is succeeding. If you don t think so just watch next year s teams. Point. Passing aga •,nst High Butch a maste ' - Hit h ' Above is a rece- tion on the college lawn.
