Many states and towns have contributed their youth to our college but none have surpassed the little hamlet called Belvidere. College authorities were at the station to meet the fastest of our trains which brought t'Cunny to our town. After the sights of our city were seen he settled down to his profession. OH no, it wasn't work, that's something he has never given much thought. His college career has been one continual love affair, discontinued only while he was deciding on a new girl. Cunny has had a successful career in athletics, playing football and baseball three years. He has been veryipopular as a basketball referee, his ability being used by the state in general. He is well liked by his classmates because he is usually in a good humor with a word for everybody. Cunny has been very liberal with his gifts throughout his college days but the climax of liberality came in his Senior year when one of the occupants of the Spratt House took a headacjhe which was of such short duration that it was entirely gone when the beautiful roses arrive . We wish for Cunny?' 'everything that will make his life successful and happy. PAUL REVERE ELLIOTT, B.S. Yank X - LOUISVILLE, IQENTUCKY ' Football 1g Varsity 2, 3, 43 Basketball Varsity 1, 2, 3, Baseball 1,-2, 3, 4, .Vice-Presiderlt Victorian Society 23 President Victorian Society 33 Glee Club 3, Assistant Business Manager Bridge 3, Member B Association Z, 3, 4, President Senior Classg Editor-in-Chief 1928 Bridge, Kentucky may indeed look forward with great expectation to the future of her represent4 ative in Bryson. Yank came to Bryson from the bluegrass section of Kentucky as a Freshman. In each year of his college life at Bryson he has gone higher in the estimation of the student body and facultyg in athletics, class work and other activities. His popularity among his classmates is shown by the fact that he is President of the Senior Class, Editor-in-Chief of the 1928 Bridge and was elected most popular boy in the student body. He is a good student, never worries, never avoids work and has a happy at- titude toward life. . ln everybphase of athletics Yank has been of great value to Bryson. He had the dis- C1l'lCt1OI1 ofxmissing only one sport in the four years, and his presence on the field, floor and diamond will be missed by those whom he leaves behind to carry on the' fight. His ability as English professor will never 'be forgotten by some of the students. We only extend our utmost sympathy to those who chance to come under his supervision but on the other hand We recommend his qualities of persistence in questioning. I McCain Libra Erskine College 'fy lillclib with lil? l HAYS GIBSON, A.B. uGipU RUsseLLvn,i,E, ARKANs.xs President Wilsonian Society 2, Varsity Football 1, 2, 3, +3 Captain Football 3g Varsity Basket- ball 2, 3g V3.1'Slfy Baseball Z, Vice-President HB Association. One time the slow train through Arkansas brought a product from that state to Middle Tennessee, a boy who has meant much to our college life as a classmate. Gip came to our college as a Sophomore and after many trials with Spanish and Math' he has succeeded in finishing the course. We have never yet seen Gip in a hurry and he has always worn a cheerful smile. He was usually among the best of the class. This was especially true in Physics and we often wondered why because he was usually a day late in finding the assign- ment. Due to his smile and sunny disposition Gipi' has made many friends, both in college and out in town. Gip has been very successful in athletics. He was a letter man in football, baseball and basketball. His worth in football was realized by those who played with him. His plays were not always spectacular but he was always where he should be to help Bryson win. We hope Gip's future life will be a continuance of his successful days in college.

Due to her innocence and intellect we could not express in the entire bounds of this Bridge her greatness and brilliance, but in her career at Bryson she has fully proved to all that she possesses everything that is essential in a real friend and student. Her speaking ability is of the most durable type and her commands in the hall will be missed by those who return next year. Because of her radiant personality she was voted the Sophisticated Senior this year and she even went to the trouble of looking up the definition one morning. Some declared that her fascination even extended so far as to attract with its powers the influence of the faculty. WVe cannot state this as the truth, but we can say that she has been seen many times discussing the conditions of school and social life with some of them. So with this we can only express our wishes that her personality and faithfulness will be de- voted to a great advantage throughout her life.

Simms is the quietest member of our class but underneath this quietness there is a real man and a conscientious worker. VVe have never yet seen him idleq he has made every hour count. Simms came to Bryson from Morgan Prep School. He has spent some time in teach- ing in the county schools where he has proved his ability both as a leader and a teacher. He has taken great interest in college HY work and debating. During his junior year he was President of the Y. M. C. A. and represented Bryson in Inter-Collegiate debating. Simms has always been foremost in his class Work, his scholarship being so outstanding that he was chosen by the faculty as assistant Mathematics teacher. His common sense and good judgement are so noticeable that We have asked his advice and opinion many times. He has been a true friend to his classmates. ever ready to serve all with a smile. After leaving college We hope Simms may have the greatest of success in every thing he undertakes and we feel sure the community that receives his services will be greatly benefited.

Lloyd is one of our town students who came to Bryson from the Central High School. From the Freshman year he has been recognized as a student of ability. His personality is made up of joy, humor, sincerity and a great intellectual ability, all of which prove that he has been a. good all-round student during his college days. He has been regarded by both faculty and student body as a high class student. M0l'C than once Lloyd has been the refuge for those who hadn't quite' prepared the lesson. The last minute before class he was usually surrounded by a group of classmates, all listening to his last minute instruction. Lloyd took part in no athletics except baseball but he made good in this. He represented Bryson in both Inter-Society and Inter-Collegiate debating and proved his executive ability as President of the junior Class. VVe hope his many abilities will be beneficial to his fellows after his college life has closed. ANITA LORENE SORRELLS, A.B. ,-1nita BEL1,EviL1,E, TEN NESSEE Y. W. C.

Lair F.-XYE'l'VI'EVH,LE, TENNESSEE Freshman Declaimer lg Y. VV. C. A. 2, 35 President Vllilsonian Literary Society 13 Class Historian 1, 4. VVhen the Class of '28 entered Bryson it was unaware that it had in it such a brilliant mind, such a poetess as she has convinced the college she is. Lois has done many wonders along this line as she has been a leader in the revolution of the new poetry-even so far as to write poetry without rhythm, meter or meaning. She has an abundance of wit and humor which suggests to all that she is a great lover of fun, and at all times she radiates cheer and happiness to those about her. Lois has also been an educational executive. She has been a school maxim whose motto was ever Spare the rod and spoil the child. It can be truthfully said of Lois that she saw America's great need for future citizens, so she didn't spoil the children. She possesses a rare intellect and readily masters all subjects in her course. She has been an active Worker in the Y. VV. C. A. where her presence and efforts have always been appreciated. We hope she may influence others to enter the halls of our college where they may some day boast of studying, in the library where once in the long ago the famed Miss Templeton read the Saturday Evening Post. 4 l Senior Class History The history of the Class of 1928 is like that of all classes in all colleges. It is not interesting to many people for the things that a col- lege class does are interesting only to the individuals concerned. This was a large class in its beginning but in the four years of its existence its number has been greatly depleted. Some left to go to work, others went to other colleges and some just drifted away. Those who remain have proved something of their merit by staying until the course is completed. As individuals the class is interesting. Three of its members are wearers of the B and have been true to the college and to themselves in many a hard fought battle. Their exploits on the athletic field have been spectacular. Qualities, at first unsuspected in these three, have de- veloped and have made them stalwart men and worthy representatives of their Alma Nlater. To some the gods are kind and to the girls of this class they have given many gifts. One is a business woman, and shows promise of great ability in this line of work. Another possesses the most charm- ing of all gifts, radiant good humor, sparkling wit and never failing optimism. These qualities endear her to all. The third is a good stu- dent and has been a successful teacher. Of these three the gods approve and surely they merit their approval. One has been distinguished for his scholarship in school and for his executive ability as a teacher. Another member of the class was a soldier in the great war and received his vision of a college education while lighting in France. As an organized unit this class has helped in enriching the traditions of the college. lt has seen Bryson grow in influence and has seen it win recognition as a college. It is glad to have had a part in this growth and gratefully acknowledges its debt to the college and its friends. L. T. PAGE 38 .,i M., W Q Xi N'-N Ei X Af' 'hjx b l,lwLLL PQ.

PAGE 45 Junior Class History All history concerns the affairs and conditions, the rise and fall, the power and weakness, and the glory and shame of men. We, the Juniors, are rising, not falling, we are becoming strong not weak. we are bringing upon ourselves glory, not shame. As Freshmen, in 1925, we began to show our inliuence in all volun- teer student activities. Athletes, musicians, debaters, presidents and leaders of organizations were found in our class. Our influence has con- tinued to be felt in the succeeding years. Our individualities and popu- larities were shown by the student elections. Now we have reached our Junior year which marks the transition from a daring, careless self-confident 'lSoph to a dignified and ambi- tious Senior. VVe are forming habits and making impressions that prob- ably will endure for life. Bryson is watching us, expecting us to do her honor, to make her principles ours. We will do her honorl We will respect and practice her principles! Bryson is instilling into us the qualities and traits that are responsi- ble for our advancements and our achievements. She is giving us the en- vironment in which we can blossom and bear fruit in comfort, freedom and happiness. As our Junior year passes, there is no denying that we are leaving behind us some sweet and pleasant aspects of life which we will never see again, but we hear an echo of the instinctive rush of high spirits over ob- stacles to conquer. VVe are not wearily stopping over the broken pieces of the past, but we are plunging our hands eagerly into the plastic clay of the future. We know not what it holds for us, but like youth everywhere, we are gambling on the future. J. B. VV.

CZ: PAGE 51 E rw r' fl , ,ill sa Q0 an oo o 0 E Sophomore Class History Some of the Freshman Class, after one year at Bryson, were eager to return and pursue further their quest for knowledge. Thus it was that the opening of the fall term found about twenty Sophomores as- sembled. Some were from Arkansas: some came from hrlissouri. The greater part, though, were the Freshmen of yesterday, grown wise in a night. l say they were grown wise. They were wiser in the sense that they knew their limitations. As Freshmen they had taken life as they found it, carefree and irresponsible. But now they were Sophomores, and they found they could no longer be vagabonds of the road. They had problems presented them, and it was up to them to solve these problems. They looked ahead into the future. They saw it with part of the rosy veil ripped from it. They made their plans, though, realizing more the work it would take to bring dreams to actualities. They were youthfully exuberant over it all. And. as the year progressed, the more conscious they became of realities. They prepared to grapple with fa-cts face to face. Two years of college have been completed now, at the year's close. In two more years, our Sophomores will step out into the professions and vocations they have so seriously and pridefully and hopefully chosen. Closer, day by day, they come to the great highway. lllore and more they love life and its finer joys. Deep in each heart there is a res- olution to do great things. hflore and more they realize that- Sfviril.r are not jLliIIf'fjV ffllltillflli Bur fo fine isszzrsf' J. S.

But not only in numbers ilitl we excel. One advantage many of us hail was that we knew each other before coming to Bryson, since the class was composed largely of the '27 class of the Lincoln County High School. The representatives of the other schools quickly caught the fraternal spirit, and our organization became a success. ln football as in basketball, we contribute-rl several members to the squad and at all pep meetings and gzimes our presence was noticed hy our yelling anrl those caps. ln the election of the college celebrities the Freshmen carrieil away a number of the honorsg also the majority of the farces, VVe are loukillpl forward to the season of 1928-'29 with great expectations, and We solemnly promise that ws, as Sophomores, will not he as mickey anil sophisticaterl as some classes we have known.

B CLUB MISS' CARIVXICI-lAEl, MISS HOLLAND BASE BALL BASKETBALL THLBTIC 'PONSORS' Bryson Athletics of 1927-'28 'lioo much cannot he said in estimating the athletic achievements of Bryson College during the past season. lllonte llcllaniel had placed a fighting little liasehall team on the field in the spring of 1027. This can he shown by referring to the record of the team and noting that seven games were won and three lost. But with the termination of the school ytai of IQH7, Bryson lost somtthmg fai gieatti tian any game. oati lll'cDaniel, loved hy all students, resigned to accept a similar position at Cumberland University. His departure from the Bryson camp left a vacancy that could not he filled with ease. All during the summer of lf?27 the Athletic Association searched the country for one to direct the Bears through the hard season that faced them. It was not until late in August that it was announced that Orren Lee Hays, Bryson graduate and former athlete, was to assume the title of coach of Bryson College. hluch had to he expected of the new 'coach in order to place a Bryson team of old on the field. The things which had been expected were realized, for the team that took the field on Octoher l against Sewanee proved to be one of the strongest ever produced hy this school. The re- sult of this game is known-how a little hunch of players and a new coach were ahle to defeat a team of national fame. But not only this game-the others which followed proved that Coach Stitz Hays was capable of directing a team in the same efficient manner that characterized his efforts while he was a member of the Bryson squad. The basketball season that followed added more laurels to his coaching. The team that he directed in this sport was the strongest that had represented Bryson. in four years. No single athlete was outstanding in any of the Bryson sports this year, but Bryson does not stress individuality, hut instead teamwork and cooperation. So now we can say that the Bryson Spirit . so long displayed as a part of the achievement of the College, has not waned, hut rather has served to deepen our appreciation for our Alma lllater.

No team ever assembled could have swept back those Bryson Bears that day. lt was a battled-scarred and tired team that returned that night, but they had every right to be, for they had met the Tiger, had carried the fight to him and had come out victorious. Too much cannot be said of how the Bryson team fought that day, but they not only fought with their body and soul, they used their brain. No individual stars were present, every man from end to end and in the backfield played brilliantly. The touchdown that gave Bryson victory and upset the football dope of the South came early in the fourth quarter when McDill had opened up a Hashing aerial attack, three successive passes did the work-the first to Gibson for twenty-one yards, the second to Ranson for three and the next one over the goal line to King. A leading sport writer of the South had this to say of the game, Sewanee's setback by a weapon which they have used so frequently to disconcert their enemies stunned the football world, that is, the football world down here. The feather, which so rakishly sits in the cap of Bryson today, was taken from the cap of the Sewanee Tiger. BRYSON 49-FLORENCE NORMAL 0 October 7 found the Bears in a clash with the State Normal of Florence, Alabama. This proved to be a set-up for the strong Bryson team and they emerged victors by a large score. Although much weaker, the Teachers' team held Bryson scoreless in the first quarter, but the second quarter found the Bryson backs getting in motion and at the half two touchdowns had been registered. The second half found the Bryson machine working even better, and Mans- Held, Curry and Britt had little trouble in advancing the ball from 20 to 80 yards at a clip. In the line Elliott, Oates and Buchanan were the mainstays. Yearwood and Bob Lindsay, getting their first taste of college football, showed up well. i ,I l.

The game was played on October 1-I-, after a weary trip, but the gents of Bowdin College could not stop the smashes of Britt and McDill. The entire scoring was done in the first half, as most of the regulars were with- drawn at this stage, and the reserves were allowed to see service. Cunningham and McCown did little playing, but the time they were in the game, they proved their worth at ball' packing and general usefulness. McDill seemed to be a ghost to the Georgians as he sneaked gain after gain. Gibson, brainy end, did some stellar work along with Lindsay at tackle. BRYSON 6-PARRIS ISLAND MARINES 25 After a pleasure trip across the country to the coast, the Bryson team embarked for Parris Island, where they played the United States Nlarines, October 28. The Devil Dogs were the first to drag the standard in the dust for Bryson this season and this was done only after a fighting comeback in the last half. Minus several regulars in the Bryson backfield, the Ma1'ines broke the 6-6 count and with their extra poundage and reserve strength they were able to part the Bryson line. This was by far the strongest team Bryson played the entire season and the weight ofthe Marines spelled a doleful tale for Bryson that day. Oates was credited with the best game in the line along with Buchanan, Houston and Lindsay, while McDill was easily the outstanding back, due to his punting, passing and brilliant running. PAGE 78 Lindsay Guard ,Q llanslueld - Back ' r4 rl' . - fclrwooddlenler Ramon Bam BRYSON 13-TENNESSEE VVESLEYAN 13 Armistice Day found the Bryson Bears and the Wesleyan Bulldogs in a furious clash at Athens. This team, a few weeks before, had beaten Maryville more decisively than had the University of Tennessee and the Bryson squad was aware that a hard game was to take place. The Athens bunch scored at the start of the game and this lead was held during the first half. At the start of the last half, Bryson showed some of the most determined offensive playing ever displayed by the Bears. A drive featuring off tackle cuts and end runs placed the ball well into the Wesleyan territory where a pass, McDill to Gibson, planted the ball on the one yard line. After two attempts Lindsay opened the way for the touchdown and the score stood 6-6. In the next few minutes with the Athenians punting from their own goal line, after Oates had blocked a punt in mid-field, McDill flashed one of the prettiest runs of the season. Receiving the ball on the forty yard line he dashed, squirmed and twisted his way to a touchdown and then kicked the goal for the extra point. A long pass from Thomas to McCray gave Tennessee Wesleyan another score and the count remained knotted the remainder of the contest. Oates, Gibson and Buchanan were the mainstays of Bryson's forward wall, while Cunningham furnished an elusive target for the Bulldogs to halt. BRYSON 21-JACKSONVILLE NORMAL 0 On a rain-soaked field Bryson and Alabama Teachers fought a mud battle and Bryson uncovered a 21-0 victory. The reserves started the game and, except for a few minutes, played the entire fray. Cunningham's 70 yard run and Ranson's runs for 60 and 65 yards counted for the scoring, while Britt with his pretty drop kicking made all the extra points good. McCown being out with an injury gave Mansfield opportunity to play an important part in the victory. Elliott, Sullivan, Bob Lindsay and Yearwood played stellar roles with the aid of Johnson and Stewart, reserve linemen. PAGE 79 1 -1 v. F--X f-vw-, F..-.17 ,Ls , , 1 1 ,.

The crippled Bryson team played raggedly, though it never gave up fighting and the more fortunate Teachers avenged the defeat handed them by the Bears of 1926. To prove that the Bears never quit lighting, there stands to record that frantic drive in the last quarter which carried the ball to the Teachers' five yard line, even though the Bryson warriors were thirteen points behind. This game marked the last fight of three gallant Bryson players. Wearing a Blue and White jersey for the last time, Cunningham, Elliott and Gibson, with numbers respectively 26, 27 and 28, gave all they had for their Alma Mater-and long will this trio be remembered by those with whom they played and by those FOR whom they played. We cannot close the record of the '27 football season without mentioning those who were prevented from playing because of injuries received in practice and in the Hrst few games. In this list appears Shasteen, a peppy guard, Kennedy, a fighting Hankman, Gardner, at the same position, and Nelson a promising backlield man. These men deserve mention because it was the Irksome Ire of old Lady Luck's Ficklo Fortune that robbed them of enfold- ing to themselves the honor that Football, the King of Sports, gives to its offspring. 1 , l 1 I , 1 l , 1 1 l l PAuii8U ' Q 1 ' 1' 1' 1 1 l ' l 1 V11 ff 1-1- 1I'1 ,. , 11 H f' i V t Y A A ,L -,r, 1,J,Ns-1 ,VIY in V . ,.,,i1-il l 1 1 LL 2- ...ah-J.:t44.z .,L, An Www 1 v'. ,yu yi!!

Captain lVIcCown was the only letter man to report to practice, but later lVIcDill, a varsity man of '26 and '27, got into the fray. With these two men and King, Houston, Sullivan, Nelson, Howard, Johnson and Cates the team was formed. The season opened on the local floor with the Tullahoma Independents. Bryson won by a large score and allowed the visitors to make only one field goal. Bryson de- feated Bill Jobe's Georgians in the next game and a few days later lost to Sewanee by two points. However, in the game with the Tigers on the home floor, Bryson was victorious. The Bears played Cumberland and Bethel during the week trip and re- turned home to play the Teachers the final game. This game was perhaps the best game of the season, but the plucky Bears lost by two points. In estimating the success of the season, the Bryson netmen are worthy of praise. The team was handicapped in many ways and developed from entirely new material, but the efforts and spirit of the squad carried them through the hard schedule.

Top FOUH Coach CkuuHngham,iAdeHne RekL Adie Prewly,Sadie Dali LHadys Davidmni PAGE 83 Baseball Review 1927 VVith the brilliant pitching of Captain llilyhandz seven lettermen, and a bunch of good material, Coach lVIcDaniel turned out probably the best outfit that ever rep- resented Bryson on the diamond. On the mound were lylyhand and Smiley, the latter proving himself an able understudy to the more experienced Captain lylyhand. Wilbur lVIeCown played his third year behind the bat, and his constant lighting brought many added putouts. Pap Taylor held down the first base position in grand style while little Bo Mansfield fought them off around the keystone territory. At shortshop Harry lVIcCown had no equal and James Cunningham pulled them in with apparent ease at third. This infield was termed the lVIidget lnlieldw since the heaviest man weighed only 155 pounds, but a faster one could not be found in the South. ln the outfield were Lake Rymer, who hit them high and far away, Hick lVIcDill who took great delight in home runs, and any other player chosen from the less important crew. Besides these, were Snub Curry, Qkley Bledsoe, Snoddy, Yank Elliott, and Pigg who could grab them out of the air with great success, and one of these, Yank Elliott, had possibly the best throwing arm of the squad. Uf the eleven games played Bryson lost only three games. Bethel College won out in an eleven-inning contest, while the lldurfreeshoro Teachers had the honor of getting an even break out of a four-game series.
