Proud, thy sons and daughters praise thee, Lift thy colors — Blue and White, Cheer their dear old Alma Mater Striving onward toward the right. Dear Catawba, Alma Mater, May we ever faithful be To the standards thou has taught us, To the truth that makes us free, And with pride and trust umhaken May ive bear thy colors true, And alike in song and story Give our voice in praise to you. Time is swiftly, swiftly flying, These four years will soon be o ' er; We must leave thy ivalls and towers, Leave the scenes that we adore. Yet our hearts shall linger with thee, Linger ivhile time speeds its flight, Ever loving Alma Mater And the dear old Blue and White. A. Krider and K. Hall, 1926.

In 1849, at an annual meeting of St. Matthew ' s Church in Lincoln county, the need of a southern school was discussed. The managers of the Loretz Beneficiary Fund which was named in honor of the Rev. Andrew Loretz, contributed to the cause and in 1851 Catawba College opened in the Old Academy Building in New- ton, N. C. Professor Charles H. Albert was elected President, and, to- gether with Professor H. H. Smith, took charge. A forward step was taken in 1880 when the institution became co-educational. After the close of the academic year 1922-23, the College was closed in order to give an opportunity for relocation and reorganization of the institution. It was reopened in September, 1925, in the new buildings at Salisbury, N. C. In its new home the College has made a brilliant beginning. Its physical plant and equipment are unusually complete; its faculty is the best ; its student body, even in the first year, was more than twice as large as ever before. Indeed, the future of Catawba College looks bright! M. BOGER. Page Twenty-one THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES TERM EXPIRES 1927 John W. Peeler, Vice-President Rockwell, N. C. C. M. Rowe Newton, N. C. John L.

The old bus, as it rolls along, Seems prone to give us thrills ; One moment we in glory sit, The next the floor we fill. It bears a sign for all to see, This bus with its one-man crew, In letters big and blue and white, Catawba, our college true. It makes its trips all through the day, Straight to the city square, Where some get off and some get on, While the driver takes the fare. The nicest part about the bus When you ' re footing it to town, And there ' s not a single car in sight, Is to spy it coming down. There ' s credit due to the poor old bus, Though it has its many faults, For it never fails to bring the mail From our mothers and sweethearts. A. M. H. Page Twenty-eight SENIORS ' BOOK II The Qlasses Page Twenty-nine THE CLASS SONG Tune : Schubert ' s Serenade Oh, Catawba, Alma Mater, Praise to thee we sing! ' Round our hearts the dearest memories Of our school days cling; Though we wander distant from thee, We can ne ' er forget, Thou hast cared for us, Catawba, Great to thee our debt! Oh, Catawba, Alma Mater, Soon from thee we part, But the lessons thou hast taught us Linger in our heart. Mai) the memory of thy virtues And thy love so sweet- Be thru future years a beacon To our wandering feet! Now has come the time for parting, Hearts with sadness swell, And to thee, fair Alma Mater, Bid ive now farewell!

C. Athenian Literary Society; Biology Assistant. For a girl more able, capable and fine You may search the world o ' er and never find. mmm Steady, dependable and true is Carrie. If you want something done, and done well, the best policy is to go to her, for she never does her work half-way. Her good nature and exceptionally agreeable personality have won for her a place in all our hearts. Remember, Carrie, as you leave Catawba, that you have with you the very best wishes of all your classmates. Pane Thirty-two Margaret Balfour Bell Salisbury, N. C. Athenian Literary Society, Critic, 1925; Cheer Leader, 1925- ' 26; Class President; Edi- tor-in-Chief of The Swastika; Blue Masque, 1925- ' 26- ' 27; Rem- brandt Club, Executive Com- mittee; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A. The power of thought — the magic of mind, None but herself can be her parallel s s s Catawba was indeed lucky to receive Margaret as a Junior in 1925-26, for she has proved to be invaluable because of her versatility and willingness. Margaret is an artist, a poetess, and an all round good student. She has received more honoi ' s during her two years at Catawba than usually go to one person. She was elected President of the Senior class and editor-in-chief of the annual. She was voted the most intellectual girl in school. Margaret has the personality of a leader, and with the keen intellect that she has, she is destined to be a great leader some day. We wish you the greatest success, Margaret. Page Thirty-three Mary Boger Rockwell, N. C. Philomathean Society, Cor- responding Secretary; Literary Editor of The Swastika; Pres- ident of Girls ' House Commit- tee; Secretary of Student Gov- ernment Association; Rem- brandt Club; Y. W. C. A. It ' s not because you ' re jolly And never a trifle blue. It ' s not because your words Are never slow and few, But the reason that we love you Is just because you ' re you. Mary, or Goofie, as she is commonly called by a certain young farmer, is an all-round good girl. She is popular with both the fairer and the stronger sexes. Al- though she never lets her studies worry her, she is an exceptionally good student. The dormitory girls recognized her capabilities from the very first, for they elected her president of the House Committee at the beginning of the year. Mary comes to us from Queen ' s College and since she is spending only one year with us, we feel that Queen ' s cheated us, for Catawba will certainly miss her charming personality when she is gone. Page Thirty four Margaret Dutterer Silver Run, Md. Art Editor of The Swas- tika; Philomathean Literary Society; Treasurer of Girls ' Athletic Association ; Rem- brandt Club, Executive Com- mittee; Y. W. C. A.; The Blue Masque. A pretty girl t a witty girl, A girl so full of fun; A brainy girl, a cure-free girl, A thousand girls in one. Truly Dutty is all this and more besides. She is always ready to help when called upon. She brings joy, enthusiasm, and happiness with that smile which belongs, as yet, only to her. There is so much we could say of her, but it must be condensed to simply this: a pleasing personality combined with a strong character is the Dutty that we all know and love. Here ' s wishing you the best of luck always! Page Thirty-five Pruella Klutz Maiden, N. C. Philomathean Literary So- ciety; Rembrandt Club; Glee Club: Y. W. C. A. She thinks without confusion clearly, Loves her many friends sincerely, Acts from honest motives purely, Trusts in God and man securely. Those who know Pruella best love her best. She is just that kind of girl who is always ready to take part in any student activity and never shirks responsibility. Pruella wants to be a great musician some day, and we are sure that with her un- usual amount of talent and of determination, she will make that dream come true. She has our best wishes for success and happiness. Page Thirty six Ruby Fay Lentz Gold Hill, N. C. Athenaean Literary Society ; Pioneer Reporter; Secretary of Class; Chapel Proctor; Rem- brandt Club. So mild, so merciful, so strong, so good y So patient, so peaceful, loyal, loving, pure. To those who know thee not no words can paint. ' Ruby is rather reserved and one is not struck by her many inherent capabilities until one knows her closely. She is quiet and unassuming around the campus, but on class she must put forth a healthy line of chatter, judging from the number of A ' s and B ' s she has received. Ruby is a good example of the model student of today: she is not only studious in her habits, but is greatly interested in other college activities. She has made a splendid reporter on the Pioneer Staff. Ruby is studying with teach- ing in view. Here ' s hoping that she will become the head of the English department in some great university. Page Thirty-seven SENIOR CLASS POEM Oh, how soon the time is coming When the Class of Twenty-seven Sadly parts, but proudly bears The torch our college years have given! Lamp of wisdom, light of knowledge, ' Tis an ever-brightening flame! May the kindly beams it sheds forth, Alma Mater, spread thy name! ' Twos a flame quite slow to kindle, Yet as ive daily strove to learn, From the light received from others Dimly it began to burn. Day by day, as for four cycles, Still its brightness ever grows; And its radiance is as lovely As our flower, the crimson rose. Now Catawba, as we leave thee, As we bid thee sad farewell, We invoke God ' s richest blessings E ' er within thy walls to dwell. May we live by this thy motto: Let there everywhere be light, Give us strength and will and power To keep our torch forever bright. Page Thirty-eight SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Far up in the heavens in the stars near the moon Is written your future, both distant and soon; In mysterious ways to me is revealed The fate of each classmate as there it is sealed. So listen, dear classmates, while I shall relate What the stars are telling me is your fate; Be prepared for the worst, but hope for the best, For now of your life you shall learn all the rest. Carrie Adams, with a head chockful of knowledge, Next year will teach in some great college. There she will train the minds of youth In the ways of lessons and paths of truth. Mary Boger will in society shine, She believes in having a good old time ; As a maiden she will not long tarry — We give her two years in which to marry! Margaret Dutterer an artist will be, For this is what the fates decree, Sketching with equally careless grace A landscape, a flower, or some fair face. Ruby Lentz reports for the Salisbury Post, She is a writer of whom we boast. She got her training here this year, Working hard on the Pioneer. Pruella Klutz has a swell cafe In New York City, so they say, With luscious food she lures folks in Where dishes are shifted with deafening din. Margaret Bell sells automobiles, With the Chrysler firm she always deals. A rushing Count appears on the scene, And autos no longer will be her theme. And now, my friends, you have heard me sing The fate and the fortune the future will bring; Good luck, I bid to you each one, For now my prophecy is done. Page Thirtynim SENIOR SENTIMENTS Yes, indeed, we are the Seniors, But it ' s true you ' d never know it, For in all this wide creation We find no way to show it ! We haven ' t any privileges, We are just like every other; Seniors, Sophs and Juniors Can ' t be told from one another. We hope that future Seniors Will gain at least distinction, That lack of class identity Is nearing its extinction. Catawba, soon we leave you, And it makes us very sad, For when we come to think of it Our fate has not been bad. And we have a certain honor Which to us seems very great, That we are from new Catawba The first to graduate.

FLAKE LAIRD Couch and Director of Physical Education Mr. Laird has expended untiring effort throughout the year in training our athletes and in putting out teams of which Catawba has been justly proud. He has not only taught us thoroughly the rules and principles of the sports in which we engage, but has also been an inspira- tion to us to play the game fairly and squarely. We sincerely appreciate the interest and enthusi- asm he has shown in us and we hope that he has felt a secret personal pride in the records we have made.

We fall out, we call out, We bawl out, we drawl out, And everywhere out ' s to be heard, We lay out, we live out, But hanged if we give out, On using this overworked word.

Luce Co. l ' uyf Our flitmlrcil Five THE INDIANS We wish to avail ourselves of this opportunity to record the fact that on February 19, 1927, the Catawba College Athletic Association adopted the name Indians for its athletic teams. The student who se- lected this title offered many substantial reasons for which he thought it particularly suitable. He gave a detailed explanation of the meaning and derivation of the name of our college — in fact, he told us something that none of us ever knew before, and as we find no substantiation of it in the Prehistoric Legends of North Carolina, a massive volume which we have read and re-read many times in search of some mention of this incred- ible tale that he related, we are beginning to doubt its veracity. Now for the astounding story! This certain student (as one would naturally ex- pect, he was a sophomore!) stated that the Catawba Indians were a branch of the Sioux tribe, who settled in and about the Catawba river. He neg- lected to say just how many settled in the river and how many about it, and since we are unable to find any evidence to establish this fact, we are inclined to believe that he made a typographical error in his speech, that he meant to say on, using on not in that sense of on top of, but as Paris on the Seine, or London on the Thames, or Salisbury on the Yadkin. Anyhow, to go with this record, which, by the way, we feel is of inestimable importance, the name Indians was adopted by a unanimous vote of the student body ; so when you see in the Salisbury Evening Post that the Indians have waged a fierce battle against the Demon Deacons (Wake Forest), or have put up a stiff fight against the Wildcats (David- son), or have subdued the Bears (Lenoir Rhyne), or have scalped the Quakers (Guilford), don ' t think that the article is merely an extract from Prehistoric Legends of The Red Men of The Carolinas. Paijc One Ilumlrcd Six ©ME I Gene: If you were walking along a dark road at night, how would you protect yourself? Shufoe ' d: I ' d whistle ' Hail, Hail the Gang ' s All Here ' . R. Fisher: Why does an Indian wear feathers on his head? M. S. Griggs: To keep his wig warm. Dr. D. : Let me mention here that there is a splendid Rembrandt picture you should see. Boone: Fine, let ' s go. I haven ' t been to the Capitol this week. T. Hoke: Say, are the flies bad clown here? Wayne B.: Bad! Did you ever hear of flies being converted? Coach L. : Don ' t mind that big fellow, the bigger they are the harder they fall. Hoyle C. : Yeah, but suppose he falls on me. She: I ' m calling him Hiawatha now you know. Second She: Honest Injun? She: Sure, because he gives me many a-ha-ha. Cop : Say, what ' s the idea of running through town at fifty miles an hour? Driver of the Catawba Limited: My brakes are not working and I want to get home before something happens. Diddle: I ' ve lost another tie. Suppose it took wings and flew away? Roommate: It might have. Wasn ' t it a butterfly bow? Edwina: Please run up stairs and get my watch. Roberta: Oh, just wait and it will run down. Page One Hundred Seven Ed: What is graduated with over a hundred degrees? Co-ed: I ' ll bite, what is? Ed: A thermometer, foolish. F. Watson : I know where you can get a good chicken dinner for ten cents. N. Hedrick: Where? F. Watson : At the feed store. Dr. S. : Can you prove that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides? J. Fletcher : I don ' t have to prove it. I admit it.

Mary: Are you proposing? S. Y. T.: What do you know about Fielding? Coach Laird: Nothing much, I ' ve always played pitcher. Dr. P. : I see in the paper that three men were killed in a feud. Mrs. P. : I always did think those cheap cars were dangerous. Du Pre : I had an awful nightmare last night. Anna Mary : Yes, I saw you with her. Prof: Who were the four horsemen? Soph : Paul Revere, Theodore Roosevelt, Jesse James and Barney Google. Dr. W. : If you saw me riding a donkey down the street, what would you think? Miss A.: I ' d think of a piece of fruit — a perfect pair. Ruth H.: Eula, what are we studying in Chemistry now? I ' ve forgotten. EulaH.: About molecules. Don ' t you remember? Ruth H.: Oh yes. I tried to get dad to wear one but he couldn ' t keep it in his eye. Page Our Hundred Eight THE FACULTY Our college has a faculty, (Most others have them too) They spend their time in thinking up Things hard for us to do ; Themes to write, or books to read, Or outlines to devise, Or maps to draw, reports to make, All this should make us wise. They love to see us labor, And toil, and tear our hair, And wrestle hard and struggle Their assignments to prepare. They love to see us worry, And work and wring our hands ; And they try to keep us occupied With all their clever plans. They love to see us scratch our heads, And wrinkle up our brows; They lecture us in monotones And often make us drowse — Then wake us with a question, And, utterly surprised, We stretch our arms and shake our heads, And rub our sleepy eyes. The question they repeat once more, Our fears and horrors grow, But nonchalantly as you please We answer I don ' t know. Yes, they work us till we ' re weary, And our worries make them glad, But after all is said and done They aren ' t so awful bad ; For they sometimes let things leak out That cause us to confess That they ' re just about as human As any of the rest. Page One Hundred Nine Said Archibald Horatio White : After the game is over, After the court is clear, Straighten my nose and shoulder, And help me find my ear. Walter says : This is too much, too much ! I can run the bus on gasoline, Or, once it ' s primed, on kerosene ; But how in the heck Do the Sophs expect Buttermilk to run the old machine? POETICAL SYMPATHY A freshman at Catawba wrote home to his father : No mon, no fun. Your son. The father answered, How sad ! Too bad. Your Dad. F. W. E.
