Yes. there have been many, there are many now. and there will be many more in the years to come. To those of the past and the present we owe a great debt — our civilization. It is because we are conscious of this debt that we have chosen Pioneers as the theme for this volume of THE SWASTIKA. Mindful of all pioneers, but feeling a particular indebtedness to those who have been re- sponsible for this college of ours, we wish to mention a few of those who have been outstanding in its development. Going back to the old Catawba we find Reverend Jacob Clapp, a fore- most pioneer in the history of the college. During the thirty-eight years of his presidency the institution enjoyed its most successful years in us old location. Another pioneer of those years is Miss W. Augusta Lantz, who entered the college as the first Co-ed in 1880. Leaving the old college and coming to the new Catawba, we find Dr. Elmer R. Hoke, another pioneer president, to whom the school owes its very existence today. Without his leadership during these four years. Catawba College would have been a thing of the past. We therefore wish to pay particular tribute to this pioneer. To those of the present who may become the pioneers of the future, we say that you are fortunate in having these notable trail-blazers of the past as your models. All pioneers in worthy work — be they of the past, present, or future — are deserving of our greatest admiration and we arc glad to pay honor to them. Pioneers of all ages, we hereby acknowledge our debt to you and proclaim our desire to redeem that debt to the best of our abilities! Page Ten u u o h -HE sSd3iu OUR DEBT TO YOU, O PIONEER! O worthy race, O noble line, Men of the past, almost divine; Though known as fools in days of yore, Your name now lives for evermore. O, may we have eternally A thought of you, a memory; E ' er before us will appear, Our debt to you, O Pioneer.- Rough was the path, stony the road, Yet you trudged onward with your load; Your life was hard, burdened with care, Yet you lived on without despair. Unmindful of yourselves, you slaved That we might stroll the course you paved; O. may we hold forever dear. Our debt to you, O Pioneer. ' Tis yours, O Pioneer, your own, All that we have, all that we ' ve sown: You broke the ice, you cleared the way For that which we enjoy today. O. Father, give us strength and will, Our duty some day to fulfill: Help us, we pray, some day to clear Our debt to you. O Pioneer. — James Warlick.

Catawba is no place to play, to dream, to drift; There ' s much hard work to do and many loads to lift; Great fame is won by struggle — success is not a gift. Keep toiling! Don ' t say a task can ' t be done because it ' s hard; Just stick to it with patience, and time will bring reward; At last you ' ll reach the goal from which you have been barred. Keep toiling! Know you ' re a pioneer and have not wings to soar; Rise like the brave and daring pioneers of yore; By constant toil you may reach heights ne ' er reached before. — K. Hall. Page Tu ' enty-eight  tfjMt w rt t , «-; w m3, Ite ;: ' SENIOR CLASS POEM Catawba, our school days are ending. A very short time, and we leave. Our hearts should face bravely the future. But still they are lonely, and grieve For days that we ' ve passed in your shadow, For friends, and the loves we ' ve had here. Small wonder the smile that we give you Is sad, and bejewelled with a tear. Old Time with its usual indifference Has hurried the glad years away, And hidden them from us forever In the vales of the far yesterday. But hopes, and the laughter they brought us Are locked in our breasts, and remain To take all the pangs from our sorrows And rob every hurt of its pain. Though Life, with Its pleasures and triumphs. And Life, with its troubles and woe. Is waiting for us on the morrow And fate marks the path we must go. The world willN ut have us in body. For all that is fairest and true Will spurn the highways of the future, And linger forever with you. So bid us God-speed on oVr journey, Keep watch as we wander v afar, And be through the years that arc coming Our hope and our bright guiding star; Our pride and our own Alma Mater, Through dawns and through life ' s darkest night, We ' ll breathe low your name with sweet reverence, And watch through the gloom for your light. We ' ll laugh when we leave, but remember We ' ll only be acting a part; The smile that appears on the surface ' Will find no response in the heart. Like Omar, we ask that our glasses, Now empty, be turned; we are through. But. always, forever and ever, We ' ll drink, fair Catawba, to you. -Anna Mary Hicks.

With gentle yet prevailing force Intent upon her destined course, Graceful and useful alt she does. Words arc too scarce to say everything wc would like to say about Sarah. With- out her as President of our Senior class some of our hard tasks could never have been accomplished. Her election to some of Catawba ' s most important offices has proved her capabilities. Her daintiness, sweet dis- position, and pleasing personality have won for her a place in our hearts. Her musical talent and inherent qualities augur for her a great future. Sarah, we wish you the best success in whatever you may undertake, even though South Carolina may claim you. North Carolina College for Women. 1 ; Y. W. C.

Billy ' is a good combination of true nobility and true likeability. After she has done her work as President of the Y. W. C. A. and fulfilled her many other duties she still has time to enjoy life. Annie Belle is big in heart and mind as well as in inches. She has reaped many honors at Catawba, among them that of being chosen the best looking girl in the college in her Senior year. In her we see a girl who can be most serious when occasion demands: yet she is a gay, charming friend to us all. Page Thirty-three - 9J (n RUTH LYERLY, B.S. SALISBURY, N. C. CAREY H. BOSTIAN. A.B.

She ' d rather go down in drab defeat Than win the game if she had to cheat. Beautiful? Yes! But don ' t condemn her for that. We all like to see a pretty girl. Intelligent? Yes! But don ' t envy her for that. We can ' t all be so bright as she. Charming? Yes! But don ' t feel slighted because of that. If we were all superlatives, we couldn ' t appreciate Pete. Pete is a corpse at every funeral and a bride at every wedding. When you cry she cries with you; when you laugh she laughs with you. Somehow or other Ruth always fits in. At a game she is the peppiest, at a senate meeting she is the most reserved, at church she is the most reverent. That ' s why we admire her. Heidelberg LT n j V ersity, 1 ; Y. M. C, A., 2-3-4.

Success, to him who merits it, comes, And to him not worthy of it, refrains. After spending one year in Heidelberg University at Tiffin. Ohio, Carey came to Catawba. In him we find a personality very attractive to all, and especially charming to one. That he is a splendid student is shown by the fact that his name always appears on the honor roll, and his ability is further seen in his excellent work as editor of The Pioneer. As his life ' s work Carey has chosen the ministry. Such a profession places one in a most honorable and revered field of work, and Carey has in truth shown himself worthy of such an honor. Judging from what we have learned of him here at Catawba, we feel sure that he will always be successful. Page Thirly-four LIi ' IIl ■w ' .A ' ■■ •• ■■. ' ■■.

My mind to me a kingdom is. In Charlie we have a pleasant mixture of faults and virtues. He is one of Catawba ' s ladies ' men, which fact may be classed as a fault (. ' ). But his ability to hold his head amid the flattering attentions from the fairer sex can be regarded as nothing less than a virtue. His smile may be placed under both heads, for it has conquered many a waver- ing heart, not to mention the few it has slain. The fact that Charlie is a Senior speaks for his scholastic ability. He was never a shining light, nor a living example of brilliance, but he has always made a fair showing. And maybe Charlie Glenn doesn t swing a wicked baseball bat! When it comes to playing a fast game, he can walk off with the cake. It is the versatile man who keeps the ball rolling, not the genius MARION E. FISHER. A.B. WOMELSDORF. Pa. Hood College, 1-2-3; Y.

She is excitable. inT- pulsive. affectionate, and always happy and gay. She is very scrupulous and, in spite of her love of a jolly good time, may be trusted to have her lessons well-prepared. Her ap- pearance is distinctly modern, although her ideas are very conservative. There is never a meeting, never a game, never a social func- tion that Marion doesn ' t attend. Just at present it looks very much as if she may be- come a permanent resident of the South. , £ £ Page Thirty-five RAY FISHER, A.B. Salisbury. N. C.

Worldly wise, exceedingly clever, and in every rote up-to-date. If there is a hard task to be done, call on Ray and its completion is assured. He is endowed with qualities that make him not only a good student and an eloquent orator, but an athlete as well. He takes his part in everything, from yelling himself hoarse at a baseball game to sitting in a dignified man- ner in the student senate. Judging from Ray ' s qualifications, it seems evident that the class of ' 28 will one day have a lawyer of whom she will be proud. Ray has cer- tainly proved himself to be a good sport, a fine student, and an excellent friend. RUTH FLEMING, A.B. Altoona, Pa.

Ruth hails from Pennsylvania and is one of those whom fate gave to Catawba after she had spent her Freshman year at Hood. Though quiet and reserved, Ruth does not lack a fine sense of humor and the love for fun and good times. She is not such a book-worm that she cannot devote some of her time to other activities. She seems to derive particular delight from playing tricks on the other occupants of the Home Ec building. We arc sure that Ruth will make a success in whatever line of work she may choose to follow. 1 Ma.lln n , .... |Y ,,. lfe ' - n ivar :(,■,! , ..... Zo ,.y. twmm 0 n, wNfr l §m $ aSSS O.

Here we have a good example of a well- balanced human make-up. If it were not for the witty remarks of Oliver Spencer Foil, we feel that Catawba ' s social circles would sometimes fall flat. But, in spite of Jack ' s love of fun and lack of indifference to Eve ' s fair lineage, he by no means aspires to be a sheik or to use his heart as a mark for Dan Cupid ' s dart. He is right out on the carpet when it comes to shining in class, particularly in sociology. Jack ' s ideals are high, for he says his aim in life is to be an aviator. He has won a place in the memory of every Catawba student, and they wish for him the best that life can give.

Gerald Grubb. our preacher, entered Catawba in ' 25. By his excellent work he completed the academic course in three years. He is quiet and unassuming, until a philo sophical or religious argument is started in class, and then he is always ready with his ever-flowing knowledge. His intellectual ability is probably unexcelled in the class. Because of his experience as a preacher and his extensive reading, he has become well- versed in many subjects. The class expects to hear more from Gerald in the future. Page Thirty-seven EDNA GOBBEL. A.B. SPENCER, N. C.

She is a girl of great ability and is a success wherever you place her. She came to us as a Sopho- more and has won many friends in her three years here, There is a certain shyness about Edna that makes her all the more likeable. Her good qualities are many, her poor ones few. She is studious, loyal, sympathetic, and always ready to take her part in any collegiate activity. Edna, if you are plan- ning to teach in the future, we are sure that your quiet nature and smiling dispo- sition will bring you friends, success, and happiness. Page Thirty-eight ANNA MARY HICKS.

A soul of music slumbers in the shell Till icorked and kindled by the Master ' s spell, A tall girl, stately and dignified — this is the Anna Mary we see. Because of her magnetic personality, her lovable and sym- pathetic disposition, her unselfishness and sincerity, she has a great influence over her comrades and proves a friend real, true, and lasting. With a voice that would rival the best. Anna Mary charms everyone. She has held so many offices since coming to Catawba that one wonders how she manages all of them so skillfully. And last, but by no means least, Anna Mary is an excellent stu- dent- In her Senior year she must have developed an awful craze for studv. It was rumored that she and a certain Senior had rented a table in the library. But be that as it may. Anna Mary, we are proud of you and wish you the greatest success in life! , _ ' ■■■ ' . ,■ ' : -J J lira DAISY KLUTTZ. A.B. Rockwell, N. C. Athenian, 1-2-4; Y. V. C. A., 4. Success in lit ' e is determined by what we do. not what we say. Daisy may be characterized as most sin- cere and efficient. She differs somewhat from many of our modern girls, since she believes that work comes before play, and she has proved this by finishing her college course in three and one-half years. Daisy has won our true respect by her absolute sincerity, her persistence, and her true friendships. Always neat in appearance, she goes about her daily tasks in a quiet, un- assuming manner; nevertheless, she accom- plishes what she sets out to do. We believe that Daisy will make a splendid nurse some day and we are .anxious to see her take up that work. DuPRE LOVE. A.B. McCONNELLSVILLE. S. C. Athenian, 2-3-4. Critic, 3: Y. M. C.

DuPre came to Catawba in the last se- mester of his Sophomore year. Although he is a South Carolinian and brags about the Palmetto state, we love him just the same. Big Dupe is not fiery, but calm and composed; not impetuous, but easy going. Throughout his career here Love has been a tower of strength on the gridiron.

Not to knoiv her argues yourself unknoivn. Diz is tactful, clever, and original. She has the power of imitation and knows how to play on the emotions of other people and to sway them to tears or laughter. She is witty and whimsical, with an appreciation for jokes perpetrated by others, as well as for those originating within her own whirl- ing brain. Her strong will is evident in her ability to acquire whatever she wants, be it knowledge, power, or men. Diz. who is susceptible to worldly pleasures as well as intellectual ones, is of times called ultra- modern because of the fact that she is ex- ceedingly frank. Page Forty m r rmf MURRAY L.

Anything with a laugh in it attracts Carrie, although her serious disposition in class and in the halls would seem to belie this statement. With all her fun-loving nature she is studious. Her classes allow her to express her ideas about cats in rather flowery language, for she is always present in classes where cats are to be dissected and flowers are to be classified. She is also quite an athlete, as seen from the fact that she has been the mainstay of the Senior basketball team, and a prominent figure on our tennis courts. All in all. Carrie is a good sport, and we wish her the best of luck. Page Forty-one ' ■Qfr .- T VERA RUTH. A.B. SALISBURY. N. C. Meredith College, 1-2-3 : Herman Club, 4.

Her spirit of nevcr-giving- up will be a great help to her in the years to come. She is a loyal friend and one who can be depended upon to do her share of whatever is to be done.

Mary was one of ihc firsl studenls who waded across the muddy campus lo the doors of the new Catawba in 1925. By a self- controlled will and an unconquerable de- termination she has cut her way through all difficulties and is completing the require- ments for her degree in three years. Mary knows what she wants and goes after it but she is never too busy to stop to help a less fortunate one, for she is all kindness and sympathy.

Charlie came to us from Guilford Col- lege. He possesses a very unique character, for in him there is much fire and determi- nation on the one hand, and a very majestic and likeable personality on the other. Charlie is a staunch friend, and a strong supporter of his convictions. The one sur- prise in his make-up may be found in his broad splash of the romantic spirit, which is very evident in his frequent visits to the Home Ec. build ling.

Acquaintanceship with Alice convinces one of the strength of her character. Combined with a spirit unafraid and un- conquerable, there is a charm of personality that adds greatly to her popularity. During the one year of her residence at Catawba we have learned that Alice can see and feel the romance of life and that her ideals are noble and inspiring. Though a •■Flower of the North, Al flourishes well in our sunny Southland. As she leaves Catawba our admiration goes with her. Page Forty-four J$0 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ' 28 Speaking from a collegiate standpoint, I am only three years old. Nevertheless. I am a fine chap, if I do say it myself. When Catawba reopened in 1926. I was the Sophomore class in scholastic standing and the three upper classes combined in collegiate activities, as there was neither Junior nor Senior class. During my three years of existence (or three years of loafing, as certain wise people like- to call ' it). I have seen many remarkable changes take place at Catawba. I have seen my Alma Mater grow from a student body of 127 students to 257 college men and women. I have seen the number of buildings on the campus increase from two to six. I have seen the value of the property, equipment, and endowment of Catawba increase from two hundred thousand dollars to a million dollars. I have seen the completion of a fine athletic field and gymnasium. I have- seen the remarkable evolution of the athletic teams, which arc now able to give any member of the Little Five a stiff scrap. In fact. I have been a part of a period of development that portrays the unusual progress of the college: a period which, years from now. I shall look back upon with great pleasure, realizing that by my works I have been and had a part in this noticeable development of Catawba. In an athletic way I have been a great help to the school. When I gave it Dupe Love, I gave Catawba one of the best football players it has ever had. When I donated Charlie Weir, I gave the football team another man to be proud of. When I gave Charlie Glenn Farmer and Jack Foil to the baseball team, and when I gave Dupe Love and Carey Bostian to the track team, I again demonstrated my generosity. All in all. I have given to Catawba many men who are good in athletics. There is one feat that I have done which all Catawba knows; I have furnished much material for student activities. In 1027. according to student statistics, I supplied the most influential and best all-around girl. Anna Mary Hicks: and the most intellectual boy. Carey Bostian. In 1928 I supplied the prettiest girl. Annie Belle McKnight : the best all-around girl. Anna Mary Hicks; the best all-around boy. Carey Bostian; and the most humorous girl. Iva Moyer. During my sophisticated Sophomore year. I furnished Carey Bostian on the de- bating team which won the Salisbury Post ' s silver loving cup, and in my Senior year I gave Charlie Weir to the college debating team. The school is indebted to me for those whom I have furnished as student government officers. There ' s Pete Lyerly. Anna Mary Hicks. Sarah Gordon. Carey Bostian. and Charlie Glenn Farmer. All these have given their best to make the student government at Catawba one of the most efficient in the State. Thus I have given you a brief biography of myself, the class of ' 28— far too brief to encompass all my attainments and honors. However, these years are three milestones in my run for success. The other milestones will be given in alumni notes twenty, thirty, or possibly forty years from now. — Ray Fisher. Historian. Page Forly-Hv [ =nf n HMBHHH ■Djq SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Listen, all ye men and women, faculty advisers, and classmates! Listen to the words of your prophetess, who is now to tell you what hath been revealed unto her. just as it hath been declared. Lo! it hath come to pass that the veil of the future hath been rent in twain; and the spirit of prophecy hath descended from the spheres to surround one with her mystic power. Aye. it hath been given unto me to see strange visions of these, my classmates, in the years yet to be. Now, it happened when it was declared that the future of this class was to be placed in the hands of your prophetess to do with just as she wished, that she cried out in a loud voice, saying, Who am I that the future of this great and glorious class should depend on me? But even as the cry ascended from my soul a voice spoke to me, saying. Hear now my words. I will make myself known unto you in a vision. And immediately there appeared unto me the Angel of Things to Come, who rolled back the curtain of the dim beyond and allowed me to gaze down the long vista of the years yet to be. As she drew back the curtain, she pointed with her finger down the avenue of a strange land and spoke to me. saying, Look! Listen! Prophesy unto the young men and women of the Class of Twenty-eight of Catawba College all that you here behold. So I, your prophetess of the Class of Twenty-eight, say unto you in this, the twentieth century, Woe unto those who hear the words of this prophecy and do not keep those things which are written therein, for the time is at hand! As I looked into this land of the future I could see moving in the shadows of the people yet to be. the always familiar shapes of those beings who were once my classmates, now changed and transformed into citizens of the world, just as they had long hoped to be. Behold! I could see them, even as if the intervening years were not at all. I could see our beloved President in all her dignity and majestic bearing, and her words were heeded by that day and generation even as we today have heeded and attended unto them. for her ambition had led her onward until she had acquired the place of professor of English in the University of North Carolina. I looked again, and as I looked I saw Alice. Marion, and Edythc among the society circles of that far off time. Among those most fair to look upon were these three. While I pondered these things in my heart, the door of a house was opened before my vision, and I found therein a household made happy by a wonderful wife. Mary, who has found her vocation in the highest of all worldly vocations — the maker and keeper of the home. Mv soul rejoiced as I gazed on Mary and followed my Spirit of Prophecy further on its quest of the Things to Be. And as I watched the home lights die away, sweet strains of music held my soul entranced by the beauty of their harmonies. When I looked about to know whence they came I found, even as the queen of the world ' s voices. Anna Mary, who had so often delighted us with her sweet singing while we were in Catawba. Page Forty-six , I I l ' ' n-i. nil li i ' AmkH ' 8 ' ■ ' ■ -Otm.. 3J ite A change came over the spirit of my dreams and I felt within my heart a strange burning to see my old pals. Ruth Lyerly and Annie Belle. Then the Spirit of Prophecy conducted mc to a bachelor girl apartment in a large city, where the two sat by a fireplace, talking of the past. Ruth, a famous interpreter and dramatic reader, was arranging the selections for the program of her next recital, while Ann,, Belle, her business manager, was doing her best to please her. My heart was st.rred to see the earnestness of purpose with which they went about their work. Having passed from this scene. I saw in the distance a great church. Within this church was another of our members. Gerald Grubb. who was now a great preacher. Just a block away, in another magnificent church, was Vera, a great Sunday School worker. As I was pondering over .these things another scene appeared. I saw a group of men and women, who. in a college faculty meeting, were discussing matters of great importance. In this group of serious minded ones I recognized Carrie posing as a professor of science: Edna and Murray as professors of sociology and very much interested in the intelligence rating of the students: Iva as director of physical education for girls, and DuPre as football coach In conversation with them I learned that two of our classmates were in the newspaper business for Carey was the edttor and Charlie Glenn the advertising manager of the New York Daily. Lo, even as I turned away from this scene I beheld a very familiar young man stand.ng before an enormous gathering of people: and I recognized our old friend. Ray. performing his duty as a noted lawyer with as much dignity as when he used to preside over senate meetings. While yet feasting my eyes upon that sight I heard a roar and a whirr above mc and looking up. I beheld a silver-winged monoplane. Upon inquiring concerning the ob.cct in the sky. I learned, much to my delight, that Jack, one of the members of our Class of Twenty- eight, had made a great name for himself, for he was the pilot of the plane and a second Lindbergh. Then, at the end of the avenue, in a wonderful high school, there were three other mem- bers of our class who had won for themselves a place in the history of education. Stand.ng in one of the classrooms was Ruth Fleming, a noted teacher of ancient languages. Going further down the hall of the school build.ng and looking into the office of the principal. I saw Weir who had won for himself this honorabl was Da c position: and standing in the office talking to hii 3aisy, the high school nurse, who had been to Johns Hopkins Hospital and completed he, training. As I marvelled at all these things, a veil was drawn before my eyes, shutting out the v.ston of thmgs to be. and I turned my eyes back to the things that are. sure that in all the days of the future only prosperity should come to the members of this, the Class of Twenty-eight. — Catherine Tatum.

Carp. one of the most popular and influential boys of the school, is indeed a great asset to his class and college. He seems to have made a great hit here, especially with the girls. His work as class president has been altogether praiseworthy, and we feel safe in predicting a successful career for him in the ministry. FRANCIS EMERSON Salisbury, N. C. Francis is one who seems to take everything rather calmly and is not easily ruffled by events, even those of great significance. Down beneath the surface, how- ever, there is a nature which is always awake to any- thing that affects either himself or the class. JULIA A. FREELAND SPENCER. N. C. Because she likes all sorts of people and because she has a happy disposition. Julia is always genial and pleasant, even in the face of discouragements. Her patience and persistence are useful assets, and she sel- dom meets defeat, because she recognizes it in the dis- tance and chooses a road other than that upon which failure travels. ERASTUS J. HEGLAR MOORESV1LLE. N. C. We all know that Rastus is one of the most faithful workers in his class. Every time there is a job to be done. Erastus is only too willing to help. Honesty is his most valuable virtue, as has been shown by his being elected to the office of treasurer in almost every organization to which he belongs. So here is wishing for you the best of luck. E. J., as you pur- sue your studies for a Ph.D. FRANCES ATWELL Salisbury, N. C. Frances is generous, thoughtful, and practical. Her character is one which provides splendid equipment for a good life. One does not become acquainted quickly with Frances, but once her friendship is gained, she is found to be a friend well worth having. Page Fifty-two rue 3 sMnd PERRY AYCOCK (Social Junior) Sharon. S. C. Hats off to Red, the Tarzan of our class! We know Perry best as a streak of blazing fire, making his way across the gridiron or along the cinder path. In Red we have a man whose loyalty and en- thusiasm in all activities have brought him to the front in the eyes of his fellow students, in spite of the girls and other handicaps. WILLIAM BOONE Spencer. N. C. Ike, indeed, stands out as one of Catawba ' s most promising men — a Socrates. He is good in all his scholastic activities and he has proved his ability in extra-curricular interests by his work as business manager of THE SWASTIKA. So long as Ike agrees with us we are all right, for such a personality as his cannot fail to succeed. J. MAX BRANDON Salisbury. N. C. Max is one of the most capable and determined juniors. His mind is one of ideas, never failing to supply a thought when one is needed. Although he is several years our senior, his associations with us have seemed like those of a very youthful fellow, and he is always ready to share in our fun. RAYMOND BUTLER (Social Junior) Clinton. N. c. After spending two years at Davidson College. Doc got ambitious and decided to come to Catawba. From his first day on the campus he has made friends. It may truly be said of him, There is a philosopher. for he has shown himself to be especially proficient in courses in philosophy. He has certainly proved himself to be a good fellow. MARY HELEN CARRIGAN China Grove. N. c Few girls are so capable, and at the same time so lovable, as Mary Helen. Though not a book- worm, she is an excellent student. She has won a host of friends who are wishing her happiness and success in the years to come. ■ i ■ B Page Fifty -three y 1£ •Xr-H-E Mia NAOMI CARRIGAN MT. Ulla, N. C. Sis, ' known to a few as Torch Top. ' ' has the nicest red hair on the campus. Contrary lo the old adage, she has a calm, sweet temperament. We do not know what she is planning to do when she leaves Catawba, but we should like to recommend her very highly for a certain phase of work. HOMER CLODFELTER (Social Junior) Maratock. N. C. Homer came to us from the University of Chat- tanooga at the beginning of our sophomore year. Since he has been with us he has shown himself to be a worthy member of our class, entering into the various activities with a whole-hearted enthusiasm that has commanded the respect of his friends. HOYLE CORRIHER (Social Junior) Landis. N. C. Abie is a true gentleman in every respect. He expects nothing for which he cannot give something in return. As a friend he is loyal, as an opponent he is generous, and as a lover he is unsurpassed — ask Gladys ! MYRTLE CORRIHER China Grove, n. C. It would be difficult to find a girl more dependable than Myrtle. She is always ready to take part in social activities and is an earnest worker in the or- ganizations of which she is a member. Myrtle is an excellent student and a good singer. She says she will b: an old maid, but we have our doubts about that. NEITA CORRIHER China Grove. N. C. Ncita is a student of whom Catawba may well be proud. She is sincere in her class work and has a high sense of honor. Furthermore, she seems to be capable of mastering any course she chooses. Ncita plans to teach for a few years only. We wish her success and happiness as a teacher and, later, as a minister ' s wife. Pago Fifty-four t==-l Lk£Li KATHLEEN CRUMP (Social Junior) Salisbury. N. C. Kat. as she is generally known at Catawba, is a friend to everyone. She came to us as a junior and has been a loyal class supporter. She ' s willing and able, and always alert. Kat. the class wishes for you a great success throughout the years to come. MARY ELIZABETH DAVIS Salisbury. N. C. A big heart, a broad mind, and a good sport — that ' s Mary Elizabeth. She loves beauty and order and like s artistic arrangement in all that surrounds her. We think Mary Elizabeth is one of our best arguments for the younger generation. VERONA DAVIS LlNWOOD, N. C. Peony is our friend from Churchland. Even though her humor is concealed, you can always de- pend on her to join the crowd and have a good time. With her knowledge of home economics, and her win- ning personality, she is sure to make some man a good wife. FRANCES C. DECKER Montgomery. Pa. Frances. Fran. or Franc all mean the same clever girl. She is always willing to cooperate in worthwhile affairs, as her familiar expression, all rightie. indicates. We are glad she came so far to join us. As a class we owe her much for the hard work she has done to make THE SWASTIKA a success. JEAN DUNHAM Salisbury. N. C. Here, ladies and gentlemen, we see a small person with much personality. Jean is eager, impetuous, and lovable, and is the possessor of a delightful sense of humor. In her case we consider quality, not quantity, and we decide that Jean must be a million likeable girls all in one. a — J! l l CML I -. . ■ fl_ .

But being a true friend is not her only virtue, for she is a good -hearted, genial, fun-loving, but studious girl who never fails to do her duty. Though she is reserved and dignified we need only to know her to love her. ROY FRA2IER Julian, N. C. Roy is a quiet, likeable chap and a good student. Elon College claimed him for his freshman year but he then realized bis mistake and came to Catawba. He has done fine work as tackle on the football team. Roy, we have room for more fellows of your type. HOWELL G. GABRIEL (Social Junior) LlNCOLNTON. N. C. We are proud of Diddle. He has proved him- self an all-around good student, as well as an athlete and an actor. Just mention dramatics, and Diddle is right there, ready to lend a helping hand. He is always cheerful and goes about his work with a splen- did spirit. We ' re betting on him. ' cause he ' s bound to succeed. LEE GOODNIGHT (Social Junior) Barber, N. C. There are few at Catawba who have not heard the name lebabod applied to Lee, He came to us as a freshman at the reopening of the college, and during these three years he has gained many friends, who wish for him a great career as a teacher of history in some large college or university. MARY SUSAN GRIGGS SALISBURY. N, C. Mary Susan is energetic and ambitious, having high purposes and aspiring constantly to better things. She has a charming, whimsical humor, and finds something to laugh at even in the saddest situation, because her heart is merry. She is a social asset but we fear that she is an industrial liability. Page Fifty-six i m i KATHARINE HALL Salisbury. N. C. ' ' Rat is very friendly and always has a kindly smile for everyone. This friendliness and her keen intellect will undoubtedly make her successful in any field she may choose for her life ' s work. Rat seems to have a special preference for the courses that most of us shun — chemistry, math, and Greek. ROGER HALL (Social Junior) Lumber Bridge, N. c. Fat is one of the biggest men on the campus He is full of pep and is always ready to join in a lively conversation. •Tat came to us just last year but he has become a staunch supporter for Catawba He is interested in science. Going to try for a pro- fessorship at Yale. Roger. ' MARGARET HARRIS (Social Junior) Salisbury, n. c. This tall girl with the dignified appearance and the fun-loving soul comes from Salisbury, our nearby metropolis. Look where you may you will never find a more lovable girl than Margaret. She hasn ' t an enemy on the campus. If you combine happiness prettiness, and originality the result will be— Margaret EULA M. HEDRICK Thomasville. N. c. Eula is one of Catawba ' s most conscientious stu- dents. She cooks and sews with greatest care, and nV ,-,K ' !? l nd ag ' 1 ' n Until cv ything is finished perfectly She has many friends and knows how to be one. for she works untiringly to help those whom she loves. You have our best wishes. Eula GRACE HICKS Spencer, n. c. Grace is true friendship personified. Bui she has other good characteristics: a loyal enthusiast for Catawba, a good student, a willing worker, always standing for the right. Taken altogether she is a fine gin t is no wonder that everyone likes Grace She is the kind of girl that can seldom be found F 3 Page Fifty-seven LU MARY HELLER HOKE Salisbury, N. C. Mrs. Hoke is very quiet and unassuming but she has ' a winning personality. She is a conscientious student and shows fine ability in her class work. Catawba is indeed fortunate in having her as a stu- dent, and the Class of ' 29 is especially proud of her She will always have the esteem and best wishes of her classmates. RUTH HOLSHOUSER ROCKWELL. N. C. Ruth has been with us for three years and with- out her Catawba would not seem like the same place. Her winning smile, together with her originality and wit, has won for her a place in the hearts of those with whom she associates. Ruth, better known to her friends as ,, Sopb. is a good student, but we fear that she thinks too much about a certain young druggist. MARGARET KLUTTZ SALISBURY. N. C. Because it is hard to keep true worth hidden we have found Margaret ' s sterling qualities, and they are many. She is a quiet girl who has little to say. but she is gifted with a splendid intellect. And when it comes to wielding a tennis racquet — well, we just can ' t beat her. no matter how hard we try. CLIFTON LANIER WELCOME, N. C. Noxious ' ' looks dignified but don ' t let him fool you You have heard the proverb. Looks are only skin deep. Well, that ' s Noxious. His outstand- ing characteristic is his loyalty to his friends. We note that Clifton has begun to show traits of a ladies ' man since he entered Catawba. We would advise an afternoon talk with Miss Lantz. ELMO LEE LEONARD LEXINGTON. N. C. Red is one of those happy-go-lucky members of our class, never worrying about anything. However, he always strives to do his best in any undertaking. His career at Catawba has been one of considerable popularity, as he is a good friend of everyone, es- pecially the opposite sex. Page Filly-eight JESSIE M. LEONARD Lexington, n. c. Jessie, sometimes called Jet. seems very quiet but she is full of fun. Who among us has not laughed himself weak upon hearing her impersonate some of our faculty members? Jet says that she is going to Columbia some day. What are you going to do there. Jessie? Take some more chemistry ' BETSY MCCORKLE Salisbury, N. C. Betsy came to us after spending two years at Salem College, but we are not going to give that school credit for all the poise which characterizes her for it really is a part of Betsy. Since she has been here her friendly smile has won for her many friends all ot whom wish her the best of luck. HERBERT MILLER China Grove. N. C. ni, W ,2u S I KV, Mlllcr ' We nev « h «rd of him! Oh. Chick ? Well, that ' s different. Everyone knows who he is. His winning personality, his genteel ap- pearance, and his ability as an athlete have given him a loremost place among the ranks of Catawba ' s stu dents. In addition, he is both wise and witty, a regular Lord Byron. KENNETH MILLER Salisbury, N. c. Kenny. or Bones. is one of our popular day students He spent his first two years at Duke and we feel that his coming here has deprived that institu- tion of a very fine fellow. Bones. Catawba is glad to number you among her students. EUGENE M. PEELER (Social Junior) Kannapolis. N. C ,h, GC f Tn ba etba11 c j| m Kt synonymous in the minds of Catawba students.

Efficiency, plus sincerity, plus friendliness, plus a heart of gold equals Mildred. The Class of ' 29 ex- pects great things of her. although it is rumored that she may choose the meager profession of Carpenter. HELEN RUFTY Salisbury, N. C. Helen is inclined to be rather quiet, but that does not detract from her personality. She is a good pal and tries to please everyone. One who is lucky cnoug ' _ ,vin her friendship is indeed blessed, fo she rtjnds b; her friends through favorable or adverse criticism. IRENE RUMPLE KANNAPOLIS. N. C. Her name was Irene. She ' s an unusual mixture of fun, pranks, and rascality, coupled with sincerity, wisdom, and ideals that we lesser mortals cannot probe. She hobnobs quite often with cats and dogs and seems to find their company satisfying and elevating. MABEL RUMPLE KANNAPOLIS, N. C. Mabel, this is entirely out of order ' Ol course Mabel is doing some unheard-of stunt. No matter how hard she tries to follow the straight and narrow in unerring obedience she is ever falling by the way- side. There isn ' t a more lovable girl on the campus than our little wayward, mischievous Mabel. Her ' s is a life of action and accomplishment. FRED RYAN SALISBURY. N. C. The friend of friends is Clown. With all the spirit of St. Louis, he hails from our own city of Salisbury. Fred is not only a star football and base- ball player, but he is also a heavy scorer among the fairer sex. We are all looking for you to make a big success in life. Clown. Page Sixty l I n ■KS5 IKSS MARGARET L. SMITH SALISBURY, N. C. Margaret is a puzzle. She does excellent work but we have never yet discovered when she does it. Per- haps her genial manner hides from us any sign of stress or labor. She is always smiling and ready to join in fun and frolic. Margaret, we are glad to include you among our loyal juniors. MARY M. SMITH China Grove. N. C. Mary has spent three years at Catawba and in that time she has been very successful in all her endeavors. She is quiet and reserved, but when one pierces this mantle of reserve one finds in her a genuine friend with keen judgment of values and a delightful sense of humor. Mary is a dependable girl, and we arc sure that her future will be successful. JULIA M. SWARINGEN (Social Junior) East Spencer, n. C. Julia has been described to us as impulsive in ac- tion, affectionate in nature, idealistic in thought, and artistic in temperament. Anyone who cannot learn to love her is without a heart. Julia, were glad vou are a Catawba student and even more glad that you ' re a junior. CLARENCE TROUTMAN Salisbury, N, C. Clarence is a shark in business administration. He gets A s with monotonous regularity in economics and in money and banking. He has a head for busi- ness and will probably enter the business world as a banker or a stock broker. Clarence, success awaits you. CHARLES WARLICK (Social Junior) Mr. Pleasant. N. C. Charles is the silver-tongued orator of our class, that individual who snatches the debater ' s medal from beneath our very noses. He is also an earnest stu- dent and a fine fellow. He is a good salesman and takes especial delight in waiting on the ladies. More power to you, Charles. 5WA5J1KA Page Sixty-a I ELIZABETH WARLICK Hickory. N. C. ' Lib has a smiling face, behind which lies a brain of the keenest type. But in spite of her winning smile and those mischievous eyes, and although she is quite up-to-date and modern in most things, we must admit that she is rusty on some subjects. CATHERINE WHITENER High Point, N. C. Petite, smart, vivacious — that ' s Cat. She is one of Catawba ' s most able and popular girls. Although she is an A student. Miss Lantz is certain that she is capable of doing better work. Cat, your many friends arc expecting great things of you. MARGARET R. WITHERSPOON Salisbury. N. C. Honk! Honk! Here comes Margaret! She is an other of our Salisbury girls who thought she would like to seek her education in foreign fields, but the call of Catawba was too strong to be resisted. And we ' re glad of it. for we feel that Margaret has been a valuable addition to our class.

HI ' :■: THE ATHENAEAN LITERARY SOCIETY The Atbenacan Literary Society is an organization founded for the pur- pose of furthering interest in the pursuit of composition, debate, and oratory, and aiding its members in learning the art of expressing their thoughts with precision and poise before an audience. This is its special purpose, but an opportunity for entertainment is also offered to those who are inclined toward the social side of life. The Atbenacan Literary Society seeks to promote better sportsmanship by advocating clean rivalry between the two societies. At all times it is the wish of the society to win, but only by fair means. This helps to develop the kind of attitude that should be taken in other activities.

By attention to composition, debate, oratory, and parliamentary practice, it aims to fit its members for leadership and respon- sibility, to develop initiative and resourcefulness, and to fill them with a social and intellectual enthusiasm that will remain with them in after years. It strives to put emphasis on the rounded development of qualities that will insure a con- tinuing usefulness in whatever activities may attract them after graduation. The claims of high scholarship, the importance of the scholarly spirit, the resourcefulness of modest self-confidence, the willingness to render necessary service— these aims and qualities we hold to be essential to all serious-minded students, and these we endeavor to cultivate in the members of the Philomathean Literary Society.

Busby, has been very active during the past year. The successfully high standard of the club is seen in its winning for Catawba the college championship in the state dramatic contest held at Chapel Hill, March 24, 25. and 26. 1927. The play presented at that time was a one-act comedy, ' Good Medicine. by Jack Arnold and Edwin Burke. A three-act comedy. The Whole Town ' s Talking. by Anita Loos and John Emerson, was given May 30, as a part of the Commencement exercises and was taken on tour in the fall, playing in Salisbury, Spencer, Landis, Concord, and Lexington. The program which the Blue Masque has endeavored to follow this year includes the presentation of a student-directed play each month. The favorable and adverse criticism which follows each production has proved very beneficial to the members of the association. Seventeen of the eighty members of the organization have won the ten points needed to entitle them to wear the club pins. These points may be earned by taking part in a play, directing the monthly plays, or serving on the producing or executive staff. The names of those students who have won their pins are marked with an asterisk ( ) on the opposite page. At the time THE SWASTIKA goes to press, plans arc being made to enter the 19 28 state dramatic tournament, sponsored by the University of North Carolina and held at Chapel Hill. April 5 6 and 7 The Blue Masque ' s entry at that time will be a one-act satiric comedy, Figureheads by 1 ouise Saunders. Members of the association are constructing the scenery and the Home Economics Department, under the direction of Mrs. J. P. Pritchard. is work ing out the color scheme and making the costumes. The club has high expectations of again bringing back the bronze shield, the winner ' s trophy.

Captain Manager Perry Aycock Archie White Captain-Elect Manager-Elect AERIAL GAME LOST TO MARS HILL Catawba 2 Mars Hill 14 The first game of the season, marked by aerial attacks on each side, was lost to Mars Hill on the Catawba field. The Indians showed up well on both the offensive and the defensive, especially the former. The Mars Hill team quickly swept the Calawbans off their feet in the first few minutes of play and registered their first marker by means of passes and end runs. The entire Catawba team then settled down and played a very creditable game, with each player taking his share of the honors. Although they were defeated, the Indians came off the field feeling that they could develop a team which would be dreaded by their future opponents. ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGE BOWS IN DEFEAT Catawba 6 A. C C. For the first time in three years Catawba was able to defeat the Little Christians by a 6 to score on the local field. As the game was played in an ocean of mud. many of its thrills were lacking. Catawba scored its only touchdown in the initial quarter. Throughout the game the Ind.ans showed worlds of drive and fight. A. C. C. was unable to get the ball further than the 30-yard line. Page One Hundred Fifte, I WINGATE NEXT Catawba l 7 WINGATE Showing superior football ability, Catawba ran rough-shod over Wingate at Monroe. The Wingate ream was completely annihilated by the bloody and successful onslaught of their con- querors. The Indians proved that they could pass, receive passes, tackle, carry the ball, punt, and drive throughout the game. Finch, the dextrous left-half, carried the ball across for the first two markers, while Miller registered the third. The Indians presented a completely rejuvenated team and all worked with clock-like precision. GUILFORD DEFEATED Catawba 6 Guilford Displaying their best form of the season, the Indians defeated the Quakers on the local field in a hard-fought game. It was marked with thrills and consistent playing on both sides, with Catawba holding the superior edge. The single score came in the first few minutes of play through an aerial attack that the losers were unable to fathom. Several times Catawba threat- ened to score but lacked the necessary punch to put the ball across for counters. The aerial attack of the Indians was kept up throughout the game. The work of Evans at tackle, Finch, and Aycock stood out for the winners. THE OAK RIDGE GAME Catawba Oak Ridge 11 The score scarcely docs credit to the stellar playing which the Catawba team exhibited on Cecil Field at Lexington, and. but for the absence of Miller in the final quarter, it would probably have looked different. For the first half the game was a continued rushing up and down the field, with neither team being able to score until Oak Ridge pushed one across in the final minutes. Not until the last quarter, after Miller was removed from the field, did Oak Ridge gather more markers for her score. Nevertheless, the Indians played a whale of a game on both the offensive and defensive, especially the latter. INDIANS LOSE TO MILLIGAN Catawba Milligan 1 ) Just as Catawba defeated Guilford by the aerial attack, so they were defeated by the Milli- gan team at Johnson City. Tenn. Although our boys were defeated they were not necessarily outplayed, for many times they were within scoring distance but could not push the oval across. The teams were evenly matched on first downs. The Indians arc to be congratulated for holding their heavier and more experienced opponents to a rather small score, in view of the fact that they were considerably crippled as a result of the Oak Ridge game. DEFEATED BY CATHOLICS Catawba Belmont Abbfy 13 The strength of the Indians was not great enough to hold the Abbey boys on Wearn Field at Charlotte. They fought hard, but after getting away to a good start in the first period, failed to hold their advantage and lost the game. For the first half it looked as if Catawba would be victorious, but later the tables were turned and Belmont pushed two across. Captain Love ' s work at center stood out in the line, while Miller and Aycock were again the stellar backs. HOMECOMING GAME LOST TO WEAVER Catawba Wlaver 1 3 Before the largest crowd of the season, the Indians lost their final game to the Weaver Collegians. They were unable to break up the aerial attacks of the visitors. Weaver ' s first score came in the second quarter after a series of passes down the field. The second counter was garnered in the same manner in the last quarter. During the final quarter Catawba threatened to score, but with the ball on Weaver ' s 12-yard line they were held for downs. r7= Page One Hundred Sixteen r I Linki h t.v — , ' ,w ..,...-,.,. m sm ' % w w LOVE — Captain 3ft «i i Love played his last year for the Catawba Indians in a very fine and much envied style. Few are the centers among the smaller col- leges of the state who are able to play a more consistent game than Dupe. Although his work is not of the outstanding type, it was characterized by its steadiness and depend- ability. By using his weight and his head he always acted as a stone wall or a great bat- tering ram to the opposing line. Few were the times when he failed to open holes for his running mates when he was called upon to do so. Dupe, we hate to see you cast aside the Blue and White, but we are sure that you will play your game as steadily and consistently in life as you have in football. AVCOCK — Captain-Elect Aycock will surely be a good successor to Love as captain of the ' 28 squad. Both boys hail from the Palmetto state, where it is known that no one on a football team is afraid to fight. As a freshman at P. C. Red proved his worth as a fullback. Catawba certainly was lucky to get such a boy to fill this much-needed position. He is not large in size but he surely is powerful in his playing. His wonderful ability to back up a line has been commended by coaches all over the state. With such a spirited chap as Red for a leader we arc sure of a winning team for next year. Page One Hundred Seventeen Co u HE Finch (Left) Kitty, Catawba ' s best athlete, certainly did show his value during the last season. Although he is small in size he makes up for it by using his head. As a safety man few can excel him. Many were the would-be touchdowns that he prevented opposing teams from registering. In the latter part of the sea- son he got an injured ankle which hindered his playing somewhat. Kitty. the students are expecting you back next year with the same old fight and form. Miller (Upper Right) The Indians were fortunate in getting a man like Chick to occupy the berth of quarterback. He directed the team with much finesse, and his ability to kick, pass, and run with the oval added much power to the squad. His best game probably was that against Oak Ridge but because of an injury he had to be taken from the field in the last quarter. We are hoping that Chick will decide to spend his Senior year with us. Gabriel ( Lower Left ) Good and dependable! Those words characterize Diddlc ' s playing. Always smiling or giving the Indian war-whoop, even though he is covered with mud, Diddle can be depended upon to be the first down the field on the punts or kick-offs; to halt those right-end runs: to run good interference for his running mates. His playing in the last few games was somewhat under par because of a shoulder sprain received in the Bel- mont game. RlNEHART I Right ) although R b i n y, handicapped by a weak ankle, played a great game at guard the entire yeSr. He always held his own against heavier and more experienced players. His fighting was very notice- able outside the line. We ' re sorry he won ' t be here to fight for us next year. Page One Hundred Eighteen FRAZIER (Left) Coming to Catawba in ' 26, Roy enlisted with the scrubs and held that posi- tion the entire year, play- ing part time in only two games. But during the last season he was hardly out of the game more than two minutes. His devel- opment was rapid, and as he has another year in which to don the Blue and White, we are expecting his tackles to be fiercer BH than ever. SUMMERSETT ( Upper Right ) Playing his second year for the Blue and White, T certainly showed his strength at guard. He was probably at his best in the Guilford game; at any rate he then paved the way for Catawba ' s victorious score. T still has two years of service to render to the college, and we are sure that his playing will continue to grow stronger. Evans (Lower Left) Pig Iron, All-State high school tackle for ' 26, lived up to his name ■ in ' ! honor during the past season. His playing was very creditable throughout wear the Blue and every game. Making holes through the line and holding his opponent s . ,, his main performances. Pig, we are hoping that you will wear the White for the next three years. Ryan (Right) I got ' im, gang, is Fred ' s usual shout, and his cry is almost always true. Although somewhat han- dicapped by a bad knee, he never let it interfere with his consistent playing. He was always down the field on the punts, and was blocking, tackling, or re- covering fumbles. We are sure that any one who beats Fred out of his end position next year will have to be mighty good. imm : Boone (Left) When it comes to force — oh. boy. give us Ike Boone, a substitute guard. Every time he gets into the game he plays with all his might, and his strength is always keenly felt by the opposing team. Ike ' s mental ability, along with his aforesaid strength, makes him a worthy line- man. Bunk still has another year in which to represent an Indian team, and we like his playing. BURDETTE ( Upper Right I As only a Freshman. Tube performed wonderfully as a substitute quarterback during the last season. When sent into the game he ran the team with apt precision, considering the little experience which he has had. With another year of playing he should develop into one of the best backs of the smaller group of colleges, and Catawba will be lucky if he remains with the Indians. Canup (Lower Left) Dwarfish? Yes, but what does that matter? He has the fight and the vim that characterize every true Indian. Going out for end, he hardly succeeded in securing a regular position, but on being shifted to halfback in the latter part of the season, he played three games with unerring ability. Arnold is only a freshman, so we are expecting big things of him within the next couple of years. Weir (Right) Weir, substitute full- back, played his last vear for the Blue and White team. Although he had very keen competition for his position he played in several games and came within a quarter or two of being classed as a regu- lar. Charlie, put the same fight in your career as a lawyer that you have displayed as a football player and your success is assured. . Page One Hundred Twenty ' ■ Glenn Safrit Perry Aycock ■ ■ . .

' yb JERKS ' ■ ' ' ' 0 Page One Hundred Twenty-on 1TE WSMt i THE TEAM Catawba ' s basketball season was very gratifying to her supporters, especially when they consider her youth in athletic circles. At the beginning of the season much new material presented itself, and it, together with several veterans, enabled Coach Laird to mold a fairly successful team. Because of the inexperience of several players in certain positions and their inability to play in a cooperative manner, there was much shifting of men in the early part of the season. But by the time half the games were played the Indians had five first string men, and three substitutes who were willing to fight, and fight hard. Practice began shortly before Christmas, and on January 10 the season was opened at home when High Point, through its fine offensive and defensive playing, took the measure of the Indians by an almost double score. The next few games ..with Elon, Lenoir Rhyne, and Guilford proved disastrous to the Catawba team. But in the meanwhile a team was being developed which was later to take the scalps from members of the Little Six. For the first time Elon and Lenoir Rhyne were conquered by the Indians. Then the season was closed by an entirely overwhelming defeat of Atlantic Christian College. Captain Safrit. although injured during the football season, showed much ability as captain and guard, Peeler was high scorer on the team with 207 points. With the majority of the present players back next year, Catawba should be a close contender for the conference honors. Page One Hundred Twenty-two 1 fl THE BASKETBALL SEASON Captain Safrit, Guard Although Skinny had not completely recovered from the effects of an injury received during the football season, he proved to be a stone wall to the offensive drive of his opponents in every game. He was continually breaking up passes and receiving shots from the backboard. He was always in there fighting for that ball, and passing it to his mates, who would lift it into the basket for markers. ' Skinny ' ' has another year in which to represent an Indian team and we are expecting him to perform in great style next season. Peeler, Forward When it comes to shooting, give the sphere to Gene. From any angle he is able to drive the ball through the basket. Each year he has been the high scorer on the Indian team. The season ended with his having chalked up 207 points. He can not only shoot, but his excellent floor work stands out also. Once he has the ball in his possession it is not an easy matter for an opponent to get it. His alertness and cleverness make him one of the outstanding players in the Little Six. Miller, Center Towering high in the air, Chick has the length, with his ability to jump to secure the tip with ease. Not only can he ,ump, but he can pass, dnbble. and shoot with accuracy. It may be mentioned that he was second high scorer for the season with 109 points. His addition to the Indian team was greatly appreciated, and his presence was keenly felt by his teammates and his opponents. He was a bulk of strength on the defensive, and a main co in the offensive machine. Finch, Guard Kitty was one of the most outstanding men on the team. He is little but powerful. Probably he was the best defensive player on the squad, and his speed was a great addition to the team. A favorite pastime of his was to sink goals from the middle of the floor, after he had evaded his onrush.ng opponents Kitty still has two years in which to play on the Indian team, and everyone is expecting him to help us capture the championship of the Little Six [r 3 Page One Hundred Twenty-three I W HISENHUNT. Forward Wbis has shown himself to be a player of great ability. Coming through for the tip-offs and passing them to a waiting mate under the goal in lightning- like fashion is one of his most thrilling performances. Although he did not establish himself as a regular on the team until after mid-season, he came through with much form and gave increased power to the Indians. WHITH. Forward Archie was not quite up to par this year when it came to putting left- handers through the hoop. But, nevertheless, he played a good brand of basket- ball on both the offensive and the defensive. When it comes to fight. Archie has it and. since he still has two years to play for Catawba, we are sure he will develop into a powerful and scrappy player. EVERHART, Center Slim, as he is commonly known, proved to be a valuable substitute at center. Although somewhat inexperienced, he has possibilities of developing into one of the best players on the Catawba team in the next three years. We are sure that in the future he will become a tower of strength for the Indians. Evans, Guard Pig Iron, substitute guard, was a very worthy player. He, too, showed the Indians that he could play the sphere. As this is Pigs first year of college basketball he still has time for improvement. All evidence points to his becom- ing a fast and smart player on the Catawba team within a year or two. Page One Hundred Twenty -four 90 VST u aft] John Holshouser HOYLE CORRIHER C. G.

Last season he spent most of his time on the mound. His confidence in himself made him a very good pitcher. He is not limited to battery positions, but can play anywhere on the field, and can always garner his share of the hits. Smith. Second Base Buggy Whip surely can pile-drive that apple. Biff! a three bagger! Last season he won the distinction of being the heaviest hitter on the team by securing a percentage of .420. He can not only hit, but he can field the ball in apt adept- ness. Smith is expected to go even stronger this year than last. Fesperman When it comes to speed, give us Fes. He certainly can whirl the. old apple in a speedy fash- ion. Although he is somewhat wild at times he puts across enough to more than balance those that miss the mark. He can outfield, as well as pitch. Come on, Fes, we want to see you put them over this year. Page One Hundred Twenty-six i ' Ere Boone, Pitcher (Left) Stick in there, Ike! That is the shout heard all around the stands when Boone walks into the pitcher ' s box. He can throw the horsehide down the alley in baffling form. His throws may look easy to hit, but just try to do it and you ' ll change your mind. Ike, we want you to stick in there and fight ' em! Give us the championship of the Lit- tle Six this year. White. Pitcher I Upper Right) Archie is the only southpaw on the staff. He is able to deliver hooks curves or anything else with much swiftness, and they go right to the spot. ' Keep it up. Archie. Show us some more of your innate capacities this year. RYAN.

It takes a good hand to hold his throws around the uTrl k • u A- Playmg his thlrd ycar on the Indian tea m ™d he will be at the height of his form ere this season is gone. Just remember his yell I got im, gang, and you will know his playing. SAFRIT, Shortstop (Right) Babe, the old reliable, can be depended upon to come through in fine style no matter how strong the opposition may be, nor how great the odds against him. He scoops up every ball that comes toward him. And after he has picked them up he knows where to put them to make it count and how to get them there.
