Oudin ec And Steph en F. Austin As Our Foundation luther ewing petty DEDICATION If all of us were as desirous as he to spread the gospel of happiness and love, this world would in truth be a place worth living in. He flings his gifts out to the world like the bird his music; the flower its fragrance, the sun its warmth,- content if someone somewhere is cheered by those gifts. We, the staff, dedicate this 1938 edition of the Chromascope to our college dad. LUTHER EWING PETTY louise hall APPRECIATION Every now and then it is your rare privilege to meet a person who is filled with The J oy of Living , whose cheery greeting, constant friendliness, and worthy character bring new life to you. To us LOUISE HALL typifies that Life At Its Best. The noisy clatter of students on the way to chapel; A Nazi salute by “Prexy” to bring: a measure of silence for Faculty programs, and who can forget the happy turmoil of student meet ings, and roof-raising cheers for Crimson and Gold in the pep rally...Or the sudden surge of loyalty as we sing our Alma, Mater! Shouts of laughter, midnight oil, blaring radios, breakfast eggs, Late bull-sessions”, and the bond of friendship, man for man. Home of the Y. M. C. A. which is forty-eight years old....Also the Corral for a herd of Underclass men Girls; And a courting spot! PP £ Not a nut-house....but almost one. Microscopes, beakers, funnels, Skeletons, frogs, cats, Bunsen burners, And Doc Harwell singing “O, Tannen- baum”! Everything- from Philosphy to Romance.....lang-uag-es; and Marked with numerals of Classes that have come and gone. In Memoriam Euclid Taylor Fant Born September 27,1872 Died October 6,1937 A true friend of Austin College To the Class of 1938- This is the year of the dictator. Because the world is tired and men are losing- their spirit, their courage and their conscience, the tryant has his way. For yourselves, may God give you endurance even to the end; the will to do; the courage to dare; and a conscience clear, clean, sensitive, enlightened by His Spirit, that you may be free indeed. E.

Beauties Who hath not proved how feebly words essay To fix one spark of beauty’s heavenly ray? Who doth not feel, until his failing- sight Faints into dimness with its own delight, His changing cheek, his sinking heart, confess The might, the majesty of loveliness? janice blackburn ann thompson anna belle mitchell marisula yeargan mary katherine hutt To the students: The girls appearing in the beauty section were selected from pictures turned into the Chromascope staff. Twelve photographs were sent to the Paramount Pictures Inc. in Hollywood, Cal. for the cast in ‘College Swing’ to select the five most beautiful pictures of the twelve. My staff and I sincerly hope that their selection will meet with j'our approval for we feel that these five girls deserve this honor that Paramount Pictures has bestowed upon them. Your Editor Our Little All-American Wallace Johnson A feat which had never been attained bv an athlete at Austin College in past years, is the honor and distinction achieved by Wallace (Hot Rock) Johnson, senior student, who is being graduated with the 1938 senior class. Johnson was selected by the Associated Press for the center position on its “Little America’’ football team following the close of the 1937-season. Johnson is the only player ever to be selected by the AP from the Texas conference and one which rates along the lines of the big All-American grid teams. The selection was made from the little colleges and schools of the United States,who played a representative schedule in their own class. Johnson, who is 21 years old and weighs a mere 200 pounds, came to Austin College in 1934 as a freshman from Athens, Texas, high school. At Athens he starred for two years on the grid team. He was a member of the 1934 frosh squad which compiled an unusual record. Johnson play- ed at the fullback post during 1935 and ’36 seasons. Confronted with the task of finding a man for the center post, Johnson consented to make the change to the new position. The record he established last year will be hard to equal by Kangaroo players in future years. He was a good line-backer, deadly tackier and was the best blocker on the Kangaroo team, which made the difference be- tween a winning and losing club (Austin College finished second in Texas conference standings). Johnson blocked several kicks, including two in the Abilene Christian game. His blocking was a factor in several touch- downs made by Cameron Harris. When Coaches E. Y. Freeland and Garvice Steen look at the present Kangaroo squad, they yawn and wish they had the former Athens player back for next fall’s schedule. ««SSaS .irss n w ! ,.

Displaying “hustle” and teamwork throughout the season the “Free- landmen” fought gamely even though at times they wereonthe short end of the score. The season was near the end when combining this spirit and teamwork with a smooth clicking offense and fast breaking defense they began to build up a score. Thus the Austin College boys dribbled to their only, but well-earned, sensational victory over the McMurray Indians. Only two of this year’s team are lost by graduation; hence, our team is likely to be stamped as one of the most powerful dreadnaughts of any “painted-court” team when basketball season begins next winter.

Gillespie Coach John D. Smith Captian We are proud of the Austin College Golf Team because of their clean sportsmanship shown in every game. Although they did not win every match they let the world know that they had the good old Kangaroo Spirit. Graduation is taking its toll this year with our team, for we lose the “King of Swat” Pruitt and “Preacher” Smith, number one and number two men respectively. This will hurt the team considerably but Cochran, Storey and Barrett are ready to take their places. Under the champion golfer of Austin College, Prof. C. H. Gillespie, who is so familiar with golf and interested in the boys personally, the team tried hard and were well rewarded for their efforts. TENNIS TEAM Bowe, Murphy, Krattiger, Perry J. T. Krattiger Captain The Kangaroo tennis team has worked hard this season and deserves quite a bit of credit for their splendid showing against all of the Texas Conference teams. J. T. Krattiger again Captain this year has led his boys to number of exciting victories. We hate to see “Kratt” graduate because he has been a very valuable member of our team for the past four years. Vernie Bowe also is leaving us and we are proud of his record on the court as well. As Krattiger and Bowe leave two good men step in their shoes. Perry and Murphy have made an excellent showing and we hope that next year they carry off all the honors in the Texas Conference.

Autographs Etching its final beauty on the clouds, Far to the West the sun is sinking low, Fringing softly, with translucent glow, The edges of the lowering purple shrouds. When this transient glory yields its ray, A Mockingbird will sing within the night, Mourning the beauty of the faded light, Singing remembered hours of the day. So is this moment of the passing year.... Happy with laughter, poignant with a tear, Bright with Hope;and clinging to the glow Of these last days, we somehow know A quiet loveliness will linger here, To mark remembered hours.... when we go. L.T.W.
