HONORING... A Distinguished ALUMNUS FOREWORD When we come to the end of a college year, there is a strange mingling of dreams and realities. Through it has run the rhythm of life and the years, you will see, blend each joy and sorrow, each laugh and tear into a melody that will linger with you forever. We have come to the end of just such a year. For the Seniors, especially, we hope the following pages, made from the realities of their last college year, may be also the substance of their dreams.

The work can be forgotten, but not the cooperation. We could have asked no better from the student body. The higher percentage of pictures in the class and activity sections bears testimony to that fact. Challenged by the assertion that you can’t find anything new under the sun in yearbooks, we have presented the theme, “Dopey Goes to Col- lege,” carried out with Walt Disney characters . . . desiring that the beauty section be something more than a popularity contest, we obtained the serv- ice of a national and internationally-known artist to make the beauty selection . . . conscious that the Senior Class wanted their publication to have something strikingly different from preceding books, we used in- dividual picture lay-outs in their section . . . cognizant of the average student’s desire for quality, durability, and taste we took great care in designing our cover, choosing ink and paper, and planning the book. Thus the Staff sincerely hopes that THE 1939 CHROMASCOPE meets with the whole-hearted approval of the student body of Austin College.

Foster Bottom Row: Low ranee. Maul. McElrov, Wilson The Kangaroo, published once each week h.v the Junior Class, has had a successful year in many respects, and it is the first wish of the editor to express his genuine appreciation for the co-operation and help extended him by the Staff. Efforts have been made this year to make the student newspaper a more vital factor in student life, and it is hoped that this goal has been accomplished. In the Fall the Kangaroo S| onsored the activities of the Homecoming (iame on the night of November 18. Elections were held for the Homecoming Queen and her attendants, a pageant and fireworks display planned and carried out. Since in id-Term the Kangaroo has successfully carried out its A. C. Dollar plan, benefiting both Austin College students and the Sherman Merchants through the auctioning of valuable merchandice and more real co-operation in patronizing Kangaroo advertisers. Ve of the Staff are proud of our pa| er. and we extend to the Staff of next year the best and heartiest wishes for an even better year with the Kangaroo.

Eagleton, late head of the department of English. It is thus the oldest college Y. M. C. A. in Texas. It exists for the purpose of developing the spirit, body, and mind of its members; of helping to create a healthy Christian atmosphere on the campus; and to give actual experience in Christian expression and ex- perience. The years work consists of weekly devotional meetings, discus- sion groups, daily morning prayer meetings, deputation work, and spon- soring intra-mural athletic contests.

Lazenby, Tucker, Ashinhurst, Harrell, Foster OFFICERS President William H. Foster, Jr. Vice-President Robert Douglass Secretary-Treasurer John Anderson Men of the student body who plan to enter graduate study for the ministry compose the membership of this professional club. Chief pur- pose of the group is the idea of fellowship with one another looking toward later ministry when college associations will have grown into a bond of union in a common cause. Throughout the year various ministers were invited speakers before the group for the purpose of counsel and instruction for the time when the members themselves would have pastorates. , The organization’s annual banquet is looked forward to with interest and the athletic contests with men from the Pre-Medical Association are always remembered. — AUSTIN i ne PRE-MEDICAL ASSOCIATION Top Row—Perry, Dodd, Essin, Zogheib, Cunningham, Roberts, Pugh, Dobson, Jenkins, Swafford Middle Row—Hall, Staples, Thomas, Clinton, Smith, Barker, Casten, Scull Bottom Row—Lattimer, Creswell, C.

Smith, Brown President Vice-President Secretary OFFICERS Emmett Essin George Dodd Dorothy Wilson The Pre-Medical Association is composed of certain members of the student body who are interested in the study of Medicine. This group is organized to further their knowledge of science in a constructive manner aside from the usual academic pursuit. This knowledge is obtained through lectures by members and professional members of this field. This organization sends many members to medical schools annually, all of whom have been successful to date. A visit to Baylor Hospital in Dallas was one of the most important of its group activities this year. A number of social activities are spon- sored annually by the organization, and their friendly rivalry in athletic events with the Pre-Ministerial Association is a recognized and well-appre- ciated fact of our campus life. COLLEGE omascope WHO’S WHO AMONG STUDENTS IN AMERICAN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES Top Row—Carson, Cowan, Douglass, Goff Bottom Row—Hendricks, Tucker, Ware, Weatherall Eight students were selected by the faculty committee on student relations to represent Austin College in this year’s edition of Who’s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. This is an honor conferred each year upon not more than one and one- half per cent of the students all over the United States. The students were selected on a basis of leadership, character, scholar- ship and possibilities of future usefulness to the business and social world. Biographies of all students chosen will appear in the Who’s Who, which was started three years ago with home offices at Tuscaloosa. Represented in the Who’s Who are colleges and universities over the United States. AUSTIN ALPHA CHI TltiityTl ine OFFICERS President Mary Lou Weatherall Vice-President Clyde Hendricks Secretary-Treasurer Beverly Carson Only the ranking ten per cent of the junior and senior classes is eligible for membership in Alpha Chi, and this group must have for their two or three years’ college work an average of ninety per cent. They must also give evidence of strong, moral character. The local chapter is known officially as the Texas Kappa chapter and locally as the Davis Foute Eagleton chapter, named in memory of Dr. D. F. Eagleton, who for about twenty years was head of the Austin College Department of English.

The club devotes itself entirely to social activities. It began its activities this year by giving at the first of school a tea for all the women of the college. Then once a month thereafter the club had parties for its membership only. The climax of the Alpha Delta season was its annual Valentine Dance.

It started the season by giving an all-college party at Woodlawn Country Club. Other events, exclusively for the membership, were held throughout the year, but like many of the clubs on the campus, the Phi Sigs count their annual banquet the highlight of the club’s activities. Miss Gertrude Patterson of Denison was the Phi Sigma’s “Sweet- heart.” EE COLLEGE Ohlomascope KAPPA GAMMA CHI Top Row—Ivy, McDaniel, Burges, Westerhoff, Williamson, Scott Third Row—Davis, Rambin, Carmichael, Slaughter, McGee, Pearson, Hawkins Second Row—Maul, Bryan, E.

COLLEGE — omascope DEBATE SQUAD Foster, Lowrance, Bidwell, Matthews SENIOR TEAM Bill Foster Ellsworth Matthews Sponsor JUNIOR TEAM Robert Bidwell Robert Bruce Lowrance Mrs. R. W. Lewin The debate squad this year prepared debates on the Phi Kappa Delta question: “Resolved: That the United States Government Should Cease to Use Public Funds for the Stimulation of Business.” After an extensive study of the question the teams entered the tenth Savage Forensic Tournament which is held annually in March at South- eastern State Teacher’s College, Durant, Okla. The junior team advanced to the semi-finals in this tournament. Both teams were heard in a debate before chapel in May at which time the winner of the Thomas H. Pollard Debating Medal was determined. Robert Bruce Lowrance, Iowa Park, was winner of the medal although a member of the junior team which lost the debate to the seniors. The members of the senior team were doing their first year of college debating and had they not been lost to the squad by graduation, their preparatory work this year would have been a valuable factor in a strong debate squad next season.

After three brilliant seasons as the Kang- aroos’ sparkplug, Hip proved to be that again this, year, even from the sidelines. Hip knows his football, and can be depended on to do what is necessary to get his backs working. His presence on the coaching staff has greatly strength- ened it and made the team more confident of the future. E. Y. Freeland came to Austin College in 1935 as Athletic Director and professor of Physical Edu- cation, and was made head coach in 1936. “Pap’’ has been handling a two-man job since he came to Austin College, and everyone who knows him appreciates this fact. Mr. Freeland does more than try to build a foot- ball team: He tries to build men. Faced with almost entirely new material this past season, Pap began building for the future, and although the conference pennant didn't come to Austin College, he has laid a good foundation for the future club. “Hip” Steen STARTING LINE-UP Backs: Hatzenbeuhler, Bartley, Jordan, Hill Linemen: Goff, Winkle, Byrd, Gibson, Griffin, Coomer, McCall MISS BETTY BROWNE, Sponsor SOU A I) Betty has been a swell football sponsor for the team this past season. And although she didn’t kick the ball so far in the opening- home game against Howard Payne, she went a long- way toward helping the boys to do their best. Betty is a sophomore from Sherman, and a friend to everyone on the £ m us. The football team was honor- ed to have her as their sponsor. Top Row: Assistant Coach Steen, Winkle. Barker.

RESUME OF THE SEASON .it, oTldlu ™ 0cTof that the Kangaroos met all season that could make real headway through wuhtE j .™ =ss x?se Hill takes off, but doesn't get far. But neither does the Trinity balltoter. That fatal decision. Ugh! The Kangaroos warm up for the Trinity tussle with a good crowd watching. The Tigers also limber up for the fray. The Kangaroo bench during the game. Austin is approaching the Trinity goal. KHis reels off a nice gain. '• 1 Playing his last year for the Crimson and Gold, co-captain Fulton Ware turned in a good job at his guard post before injuries forced him to the bench. “Porky” will be missed by everyone. He has been a real Kangaroo. J. E. Easley turned out to be one of the best first- year prospects at his guard position, although he was not “discovered” until well into the season. At backing the line he stood out. J. E. will have three seasons to play for Austin and will help in many ways. Uklen Gibson was shifted from his end post to bolster up the center position, and Gib showed that he was the man who could do the job. Gib was dependable, and his return will be welcomed by the coaches. John Lewis closed his football days at Austin with a commendable season. At quarterback slot he did some nice headwork, and his block- ing was good. “Mutt” will be missed when the call is sounded for the opening training session next Fall. Mac McBee had hard luck in the ’38 season. He showed good form in the opening games, but broke his right leg in scrim- mage in the middle of the season. It was he, how- ever, that inspired his teammates to turn in the biggest upset of the year. Big Joe Coomer proved a most welcome addition to the Kangaroo roster. His size and strength made him the bulwark of the Kangaroo line. This Greenville lad has several more seasons to perform for the Crimson and Gold, and will make an import- ant bid for all-conference honors. Cotton Hill, playing- his first year for the Crimson and Gold, showed him- self to be of great value to the team. He ran with the ball, called signals, passed and punted. Cotton played more than any other man on the squad. Co-captain Charlie Goff proved to be a leader as a top notch end. “Lynx” demonstrated his ability in consistently smashing plays aimed in his dir- ection. With one more season to play for the Kangaroos, he will again next year, be co-captain in 1939. John Ed Hatzenbeuhler was the most consistent ground - gainer on the squad. From his right half position, he was al- ways a scoring threat, and turned in the longest run of the year in the ACC game. John Ed has three more valuable years of eligibility. Tom Bartley was a power on the defense in his line- backing position. Block- ing well, he was a vital factor in the Kangaroo offense. Tom will b e back for another season, and will be a valuable player again next year. Lee Smith was the hard- est hitting fullback on the squad, and was respon- sible for some nice gains during the season. He scored the winning touch- down against ACC, and will be depended upon to carry the Crimson and Gold for sever..1 seasons. Cleveland Barker, two year letterman, played his last football for the Kangaroos last season. He was a valuable man at center post, and will be missed in the coming season. Barker was a hard tackier and a good all-around man. Muriel Kimbrough prov- ed to be a valuable guard to the Crimson and Gold his last year of eligibility. He did not see much ac- tion until well into the season, but in the Trinity game he was a standout. His hard-tackling will be missed next year. Johnny McDonell made his debut this season as a transfer halfback, and filled a very important place on the Austin team. His passing was respon- sible for many yards, and when he got through to the secondary he was a constant threat. He will be a welcome addition to next year squad. Murray Byrd was the hustlingest guard on the A. C. squad. He held down the right guard position and led the block- ing from that position. His speed and offensive ability made him a valu- able man. Murray was a real fighter. Red Ellis did not receive his chance to show what he had until late in the season, but from then on he proved to be a valuable right halfback. One of the hardest running backs on the squad, Red was good for plenty of yardage. He broke his leg in the McMurry tilt. D. A. McCall, the tree- top end of the Kangaroos was the best pass receiver on the squad and scored two touchdowns by this route. For his consistant playing and ability, he has been named co-capt- ain for the coming year. He will be catching them for the Kangaroos in ’39. Billy Drake, freshman wingman, proved that he could stand up with the best of them. His special- ly was in defensive play, and he broke up many plays of the opposition from his end. Drake was a welcome addition to the squad and played good ball for the Kangaroos. . L. Harding, senior ickle, was greatly hamp- ed his last year by in- iries, but never-the-less e did some capable play- ig and hustled every linute. Never much in le lime light, Harding aowed his teammates hat the real Kangaroo pirit was. herman Elliott used his reat bulk to fill a needed acancy on the Kangaroo aster. This big tackle layed some good ball uring the season, and is remaining years of ligibility make him extra iluable. Rip Winkle will long be remembered for his al- ways dependable high class tackle play. Rip was always at the bottom of the plays coming to- ward his side of the line, and was perhaps the most consistant lineman on the entire squad. Here’s to another big season for Rip. Joe Lawrence showed again this year that it wasn’t only the big boys who could handle the job of a tackle. Joe was the hardest charging tackle on the squad and ruined plenty of the opposition’s plays. He also was good in his punting assign- ments. illsford Floyd played a ood game at his fullback ost, and it was his toe lat won the game from aniel Baker. Doc. was ways good for a short ain, and his defensive lay was outstanding. He ill be back again next jar, and will strengthen le squad with his ability Wendell Jordan, one of the three freshman full- backs, was the best block- er of the lot and the quick, est on his feet. His punt, ing was good, and h i s spirit fine. He will be a valuable man in ’39. Larue Haralson the hard- est charging end on the squad, gave opponents headaches all season. He was a hustler from start to finish, and played the game for all he was worth- He will be a great help n the 1939 campaign. Ponnie Ames showed loti of determination and fighl during the season and turned in a good perfor- mance at his guard post. The chunky scrapper was always in the thick of things and doing his best. J. C. Griffin “Bollweevil” filled the hole left by the injured captain Ware quite creditable all season. A tough lad for his size, he played a good brand of ball in his guard position, stopping h i s share of plays. T. C. Williams started the season as a quarter- back, but when shifted to guard in the TWC game he played so much in the opponent’s backfield that the coaches thought it would be a good job to leave him there. H i s fight overcame his size handicap. TENNIS TEAM The Kangaroo tennis team played several matches this Spring in prepara- tion for the Texas Conference meet, winning their share of them. The doubles team, composed of Captain Perry and Tommy Murphy reach- ed the semi-finals at the Texas Conference meet held in Austin this year. In the singles, Captain Perry was eliminated in the quarter-finals by Jones of A.C.C. who repeated as champion of the Texas Conference. Kenneth “Sonny” Clinton, is the only man that will be lost to the Kangaroo squad by the graduation route, and prospects are good for a better team in 1940. BASKETBALL TEAM ED ABRAHAMSON Forward The 1939 basketball team started their season’s play with two victories out of the first three games, but from then on failed to discover a combina- tion powerful enough to conquer Texas Conference foes. The Kangaroos always played a good game during the opening periods, but lack of experi- ence and reserve strength lost most of the games in the last stages of the games. The team was led by Captain D. A. McCall, center, and Matthew Bullock, guard. Both of these boys received mention on the All-Conference Squad. Of the eight lettermen on the 1939 Kangaroo team, only two will be lost by graduation, H. L. Harding, and Murry Byrd. BASKETBALL TEAM H. L.

Front Row: Alex Tocquigny, Johnnie McDonell, Herrey Lazenby, Bob Bremmerman, Earl Smyth, George Tocquigny and Walter Bennett (was camera shy.) The Kangaroos without much experience, went to the Texas Conference Track and Field Meet in Austin on May 11 and 12, and returned home with a fourth place in conference standings tucked into their pocket. Most of the Kangaroos’ points were taken in the broad jump event, in which three men were placed. Larry Gilbert leaped to second place, Severn Hallett to third, and Walter Bennett to fourth place. George Tocquigny placed second in the two mile run, the relay team placed third, and Bob Simpson tied for fourth place in the pole vault. With a team that will lose only one man this year, the Kangaroos are look- ing forward to bigger and better things next year. Book Six Ads $ S Drs.

Portrait of Prexy ‘’The president of the student body may now take charge,” says Dr. Tucker at the conclusion of the devotion. Clyde, he’s our prexy, jauntily take the platform. Boy! Is he diked? If he happens to be wearing that violently blue jazz-bow cravant, well, you just oughta hear the ‘oohs’ and ‘ahs’ from those freshmen girls. Of course they know he’s Jane St. John’s but so’s Nelson Eddy married and he can still make a feminine heart skip a beat. His work finished, our prexy retires from the platform, goes to the store and nonchalantly lights a Bull Durham. Yes! He rolls his own! “Incongruous,” you say. Well, maybe, but that’s our prexy.

I’ll have you know I’ve been a “BULL” so long I don’t want to be anything but.” “Suction” or Philosophy Class Every student’s pencil was posed (except the football men asleep on the back row.) The lecture began: “The burning philosphic question of the age is —“Do toads have side-pockets and if so, why?’.” Jimmie (Yes-man) Storey interrupt- ed, “I know, Dr. Clyce, let me tell. They have side-pockets to carry their warts in.” This now started a general discuss- ion on the front row about whether toads cause warts or warts cause toads. Some 40 or 50 minutes of this and the bell rang. The back row arose and yawned themselves out. They had slept through another Philosophy class. Mr. Storey mentally wrote himself an “A” for that day’s work. We learn to run the government, We learn how much money to spend. We learn just when and how to vote, And then we hear an anecdote. Ob, all-in-all it’s lots of fun Hearing of how our country’s run And sometimes we get down to facts— On Alabama or income tax. Of all the classes in the school I like it best and I’m no fool. I’d like to make but one request— His jokes, too, he’d ask us on our test.

FLOOGIE Referee Gets Medal Another person was honored today when the Trinity stud- ent body awarded a medal to one of the referees of the T.U. -A.C. football game last Nov. for his services in that grid- iron classic. Team Prepares For A.C. The Trinity University foot- ball team will be in strenuous fort to be ready for the Austin College Kangaroos when they play the big grudge game in Sherman next November. The boys will be in their an- nual summer camp at the Wax- ahachie Country Club. They plan to really rough it this year. Unanimously Elected By Students As Best-Looking Girl On The Tiger Campus The main news today on Trinity University’s campus was the election of Miss Footslip Floogie as the most beautiful co-ed among a large number of aspirants. This is not the first honor that has come to Miss Floogie. She has been sponsor of the Tigers several football seasons. Fans will always remember how she would stand under the goal-post of the visiting teams and repulse the best thrusts those many stalwart elevens could make. No finer tribute could be made to this beautiful co-ed, which the student body of Trinity has elected as the supreme essence of loveliness on their campus, than was made by the novelist Fielding when he wrote in “Tom Jones”: “Awaken, therefore, that gentle passion in every swain; for, lo! adorned with all the charms in which nature can array her; bedecked with beauty, youth, sprightliness, innocency, modesty, and tenderness, breathing sweetness from her rosy lips, and darting brightness from her sparkling eyes, the lovely...”-- BEAUTY OF TRINITY’S CAMPUS COMES! Astringent rules have been laid down which it will be compulsory for the team members to obey. Following is a list of a few of the rules. 1. Finger-nails can only be manicured every other day. 2. Nail polish will not be allowed at all because it causes serious gastric disturbances allurgic to the intestinal fortitude of a Trinity football player. 3. Only one date a month and this date must be of the parlor variety. 4. All men will take a course in the etiquette of pink-tea sipping so they will be most mannerly at the between-halves tea which is scheduled for the game next Turkey Day.
