The first one, the Chemistry Building, ivas completed in nSo( , three years before the college was opened to students. tHilt Sloping green hills crozcned ivith age- softened buildings— the first general view of the campus The Qarnpus OlpHK visitor, when he enters the portals of Clemson s Campus Jl for the first time, invariably exclaims, How Beautiful. A trite expression? Yes. But adequately expressive. For our campus is beautiful, and anyone with a spark of appreciation of beauty in any of its forms or manifestations feels it at once. _ The entrance to the campus from the south— two huge, granite pillars softened and mellowed by shrubbery: the sternness of the stone shaded by the verdant foliage. A winding highway that gently climbs and slopes through apple and peach orchards, that, in the spring, are a riot of feathery blossoms. Peaceful, dreamy and quiet, this part ot the campus makes one feel as if hurry and bustle were unknown quantities of an unknown world. Past the peach and apple orchards, we come to homes by the high- way, and a very tall tower is visible above the foliage of the oaks. The Administration Building. The highway curves sharply, and there on a gently rolling, and perfectly tended landscape are the various buildings that compose our institution. glimpse of the tower at the bend in the road ; 3tei% ; Looking south from the oaks near . Idministration building From the misty mass of Main Building the clock tower rises into the ni ht And so these views are presented to all who glance through our hook. Presented, not In a spirit of braggadocio or advertis- ing, not in the spirit of telling the world what we have and trying to make the world like it, hut hoping that these glimpses of our institution will instill in everyone who sees them a feeling of fellowship for us when we speak of our Alma Mater as all Mothers are spoken of — in a tone of love and respect. The Administration Building dominates the campus like a tall pine in an oak forest. It is built on the top of the tallest hill, and in front of it slopes Bowman field, the drill field ot the corps of cadets. From the field, we see silhouetted against the sk a hugh Romanesque structure with sharply sloping slate roofs, a tal! tower that climbs Heavenward, and ivy-covered walls that remind one ot the ancient chateaux ot France. It is an imposing building, and the casual observer feels very, verj small indeed when he a es at this dignified hall ot know ledge. With a final blaze of glory the sun paints the sombre walls of the Textile Tower, then vanishes in the dusk The interior of the Administration Build- ing is in keeping with the exterior. As one enters he sees the gilded eagle of the United States Army above the door of the Com- mandant ' s office. Clerason is a Military College and is governed by a Board of Trustees, President and Commandant. On the same floor are the offices of the President, Registrar, Business Manager and Treasurer. Truly, the powers that be reside on this floor. The academic class- rooms are on the next three doors. ( )ne of the outstanding interesting tilings at Clemson is the panoramic view that one ma se lire from the tower, where- in every detail looks as if it had been sketched bj an artist in a world of minia- ture objects. Riggs Hall, the new Engineering Build- ing, is dire tl south ot the Administra- tion Building and faces it. A perfectly straight, concrete walk connects the en- trances of the two buildings. Riglis Hall stands like a green tree in a fire scarred forest. The old engineering building burned and this more complete and more pretentious structure was built just to the rear of the sjn- of the old building. As yet, the ground has not been landscaped, and it is the onl scar on our otherwise perfe. t i ampus. 1 ■1 A sentry of Lombardy poplars guard the memory of our dead % Rustic stone steps among a profusion of shrubs Riggs Hall— brick, stone, and tile blended harmoniously in a spring-time setting This handsome building was inspired by the architecture of the Italian Renaissance. It is of varicolored bricks that harmonize perfectly, giving the building a beautiful pastel tone. A fluted, tile root tups this massive structure, and adds a dash of color that is more than pleasing to the eye. I ln building is the most modern, and most perfectly equipped building of its kind in the South. It contains laboratories, recita- tion and lecture rooms, and drafting rooms. In it, all branches of engineering are taught: Architecture; Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineering. ' 1 he old Agricultural Building, like the old Engineering Build- ing was burned, and like the New Engineering Building, the Agri- cultural Building arises from the ruin, liner and more beautiful than r cr. It is the first important building thai one passes when he enters the i ampus from the smith. A word of desi ription. It is a massive building, square and solid in appearance. Eight tall stone columns support its roof and broad stone steps seem to How ! torn the base of the columns to the ground. Looking down from the track the re- cently completed Field House is set n its huge hulk silhouetted against the sky Architects and critics agree that this building is the most perfect in design and execution on our campus. As one enters he is amazed at the enormous proportions of the one great room that he sees. It is the reading room of our library. This library, by the way, has the most perfect and complete collection of technical reference books in the state. It is also well stocked with fiction, poetry, popular novels, periodicals and papers. In the gallery that encircles the reading room is a museum. Paintings, relics and specimens of the natural life of South Carolina make this a very interesting spot. The laboratories and lecture and class rooms of the Agricultural Department, and the offices of the extension department are in the rear of this building. Across Bowman field from the Agricultural Building may be seen the Textile Building, the Y. M. C. A. Building and the various stores that compose the downtown section of Clemson. It is a beautiful view across the sodded and green drill field. The lone weeping willow in front of the ' i is as graceful and beautiful as only the Supreme Artist alone is able to make it. The quiet, unpretentiousness of the Y is in keeping with its name. The Greenhouse from the Library Tt ' alk The pool at the horticultural gardens «■■ MM Indian summer and a tranquil southern sun sur- round New Barracks :cith a warmth of idle medita- tion • ' N fP «i The Y. M. C. A. is the biggest recrea- tional center at Clemson. It has a large, perfectly equipped, swimming pool in the basement. A bowling alley, a basket-ball court, a handball court and gymnastic ap- paratus are also in the basement. On the ground floor are the large loung- ing and reading rooms. Two of these rooms are equipped with pool and billiard tables, and the merry click of the balls may be heard as the cadets enjoy themselves dur- ing their infrequent vacants. The auditorium has recently been equip- ped with talking picture apparatus, and the students enjoy the pictures to the ut- most. The Y. M. C. A. contains many rooms that are occupied by protestors and special students. In the basement of the build- ing is a modern cafeteria where delicious meals are served to students who do not eat in the Cadet Mess Hall, and to the professors who room in the building. West of the V. M. C. A. is the Athletic Field which consists of tWO football fields, baseball diamond, track, bleachers and the other paraphernalia of outdoor sports. At the end of the field is the handsome new Field House. The massive columns and rustic piers of Middle Bar- racks express a feeling of permanence and security It is a long, rectangular building with an arched root. The soft shades of the varicolored bricks and the pleasing design of the building make it most attractive to the onlooker ' s aesthetic senses. This building has, inside, basket-ball courts, an indoor track, and facilities foi boxing, wrestling and gymnastics. It is lived for dances when such happj occasions ari e. And this dissertation on the main beauties of our campus draws near to com- pletion. The high spots have been touched, the outstanding features commented upon. Mam places have been neglected, for tin ' s is a yearbook of the student body, not of the campus. But, as human nature wills it. the best is always saved for the last. And so we come to the horticultural grounds on the east of the campus. Vou, who have been there, will agree- that no description is adequate, for there is sentiment as well as sublime beaut) at- tached to that spot. A rendezvous for lovers, a spot hallowed by sacred memories, we present it as the brightest jewel in beauty ' s crown. mtk Memorial arches ainl iv covered ivalls Executive Circle from the doorway The Qalhoun - Mansion The home with which Calhoun ' s memory will ever be asso- ciated is Fort Hill, which he bought when he and his wife decided to live in the South instead of in Washington as they once thought of doing. Part of the house was old, but additions were made from time to time. From the dining room, behind the impressive row of white columns, one could look across the grass-covered yard with its venerable oaks at remains of the old fort which General Pickens built in Revolutionary times to overawe the Cherokees. It is from this fort that the plantation got its name. Calhoun loved his farm. In one of his letters to his brother- in-law we find this statement, I consider my absence from my farm one of my greatest sacrifices. The great statesman made daily inspections of the work on the plantation during the time he was able to stay at home. These trips were made with a long stick in hand and strides as long, writes one of his friends who some- times accompanied him. The new farming methods which he in- troduced to this state and the improved breeds of live-stock which he imported greatly aided agriculture in the whole up-state. The practical way in which Calhoun managed his farm is most surpris- ing for one with such a theoretical mind. It is appropriate, then, that there should be located at Fort Hill a technical school. The Calhoun Mansion is carefully pre- served by the college as a memorial to the great statesman whose life should be an inspiration to every student. The Qalhoun-Qlemson Friendship Calhoun was United States Senator and fifty-six, while Clemson was a Scientist and thirty-one when he became the son-in-law of Calhoun. The charming Harriet Lane, niece of James Buchanan, brought Mr. Clemson and Miss Calhoun together. The relations between Calhoun and Clemson ever remained intimate and confidential. Clemson became a disciple of Calhoun and thoroughly Southern in his sentiments. Mr. Clemson con- ducted a correspondence with Calhoun when he was abroad. Both were interested in agriculture. Even after Calhoun ' s death Clemson declared that he was one of the best farmers he had ever known. Clemson became a practical farmer and for a time had charge of the Fort Hill farm and Cal- houn ' s mining interests. Clemson was abroad at the time of Calhoun ' s death in i8s , but thirty-six years later in his will he provided that Calhoun ' s old home should be preserved as a memorial to him. Both were scholars. Cal- houn ' s interests were political and governmental; Clemson ' s were scientific and educational: Calhoun was frail of body; Clemson was giant-like. Their correspondence reveals respect, admiration and friendship. Enoch Walter Sikes, Ph.D., LL.D.

Professor Dargan came to Clemson in 1901 as instructor of mathematics. The following year he was transferred to the Department of Electrical Engineering. When Dr. Riggs became President in [901, Professor Dargan was ' _ r iven the directorship of that department, and under his guidance it be- came one ot the foremost in the South. Professor Dargan was graduated from Furman University with a M.S. degree. lie took grad- uate work at Cornell and the University of Michigan. His lite w ;is devoted to teaching, and as a teacher, he taught more than theories from must] text hooks. He taughl theories ot life; himself an example; a model bj which young men could pattern themselves; tor his lite was a portrayal ot kindness, helpfulness, and polish that is the attribute t the typical southern gentleman, lie was ever read] to help his boys when the] needed help.

Page 10 In -JhCe nory f Qharles Stebbin Doggett DIRECTOR Textile Department and Professor of Textile Chemistry and Dyeing, Clemson College, 1905 to [926. Professor Doggett. the son of Rev. Thomas Doggett, was born at Groveland, Mass., November 27. 1858. He retired in i ) 0. and was Professor Emeritus of Textile Chemistry and Dyeing until h e passed away, November 22, 1929. Living at a time when the obtaining of a mere degree was not regarded so highly as now, Pro- fessoi Doggett did not remain long enough at any college or university to secure a degree. He studied two years at Obelin College; one year at Leeds University, England; three semesters at the Swiss Federal Polytechnic, Zurich; one year at Munich University, Germany; and one year at the Royal Prussian Polytechnic, Aix-La-Chappelle. In recognition of his scholarship, the Hoard of Trustees of the Clemson A. and M. College conferred upon him the degree of M.S. a few years ;iL r . Prior to his connection with Clemson. Professor Doggett had taught two years at Massachusetts Institute of Technolog] ; was tor nine years connected with Cotton Mill work; and for sixteen years was engaged in chemical plants at Niagara Falls. At Clemson he served as the first Supervisor of Trade and Industrial Education under the Smith-Hughes Act, from 1919-1921. Professor Domett was a man of retiring disposition, modest to a fault, and possessed of a fine sense of humor. He was a man of strong and sin en- religious convictions, high ideals, broad educa- tion, and was exceptionally well read. He was broad-minded and tolerant in respect to the views of others, not only in matters spiritual, but also in general. With the passing of Professor Doggett Clems n has Inst a loyal servant who was devoted to the cause of the upbuilding of the College, ami one who was ever willing to do his share of work to that end. Executive Department The executive department consists of the president of the college, the registrar, the treasurer, the business manager, and the heads of all of the various departments of the school. It is under the guidance and leadership of these men that our conduct, studies, and futures are molded. The executive department, by sheer will power and determination has secured for Clemson fine buildings, fine equipment, and a tine teaching staff, and it is ever on the alert to keep this smooth running machine in the best of order, so that the maximum benefits of it mav be received bv even student at Clemson. Dr. E. V. Sikes President Page 32 School of Engineering Prof. S. B. Earle Dirt i tor The Engineering School is maintaining to a high degree the reputation for which it has been remarkable throughout its history. Its building and equipment are most modern in every respect, and the courses are quite com- plete. No Clemson trained engineer has ever been forced to look for a position. Rather, the posi- tion looks for him; for each year many large engineering firms send representatives to the College to employ the future engineers before they graduate. Alumni records show that Clemson men have an enviable record for ad- vancement and capability, in all parts of the I nited States. Page 33 School of Agriculture The Sch ol of Agriculture has tour distinct aims. It teaches the future planter the whys and wherefores, the exact details, and the niceties ol scientific farming, so that he may go into his chosen profession more fully equipped and better able to wrest a profitable livelihood from the soil. It collaborates with the Extension Depart- ment of the State and teaches those who are unable to attend college, the more advanced methods of agriculture. It has absolute charge of the state experi- ment stations, where theories are actually proven, and the knowledge transmitted to the people. Dr. F. H. H. Calhoun Director Page 94 School of zArts and Sciences I he School of Arts and Sciences has three clearly defined purposes. First, it aims to train the mind lor logical and clear thinking without reference to a particular profession or line of endeavor. Second, it prepares the student for graduate work in the various fields of research by giving him a fundamental knowledge of the main fields of study. Third, it teaches the non-technical subjects required in the future study of Law, Medicine, Educa- tion, and Journalism. This course is a boon to those who want an education, to those who are of non-technical minds, and to those who intend to specialize when the leave Clemson. Dr. D. VV. Dam i i Director Pagi EKV School of Textiles The most progressive and flourishing indus- try in the South draws many of the outstand- ing men from Clemson. To meet the growing demand for highly trained and competent men in the textile industry, Clemson continues to improve this course ; thereby keeping abreast of the most modern methods of textile manufac- ture. Courses are given in dyeing, spinning, weaving, textile chemistry, and all other sub- jects that are necessary to completely equip a man for this highly technical industry. The textile building is a remarkahly complete and efficient cotton mill in miniature, containing all necessary machinery, laboratories, and class rooms to make a perfect hall of knowledge as well. Prof. H. H. Willis Director Page 86 . t -1 V_J rJ +- J School of Chemistry Dr. R. N. Brackett Dint tor ' . — -. - - ' Instituted when the college was created, the School of Chemistry has ever been an import- ant branch of the educational facilities of the college. Its aims, and its records show that it desires to, and does graduate men of high caliber in the field of chemistry. An ample and able staff of professors con- duct its work both wisely and well. A chemist, trained at Clemson, is ever in great demand in all industries that require a perfectly trained chemist. The value of chemistry is recognized at Clemson; a proof of this is the fact that chemistry is required for all Freshmen. All branches of chemistry are taught to the students who major in chemistry. Zm. v- 3 ' -  . • - « r3lt« School of hCilitary Science and Tactics Clemson being a land grant college, all stu- dents are required to drill. However, Clem- son was also fortunate enough to secure a Re- verve Officers Training Corps unit, so now theories ot the military are taught along with the drill. Six officers of the regular army are stationed here; they teach Military Science and Tactics and help govern the students. Colonel Munson, our commandant, col- laborates with Dr. Sikes, our president, in the disciplining of the Corps of Cadets. A commission as second lieutenant in the Officers Reserve Corps is granted to all stu- dents who have completed this course of in- struction. Col. F. L. M unson Director Page B8 School of Physical Education Prof. J. G. Gee Director The School of Physical Education, consist- ing of the Athletic Director, and the coaches in the various lines of athletics, is probably the most progressive department at Clemson. And well it may, for, before the new athletic policy was adopted, athletics at Clemson were in such a slump that it seemed that only an intervention of fate could assist in any way ; but fate took a hand three years ago when Mutt Gee and Josh Cody came here as director and head coach, respectively. Since then, Clemson has advanced by leaps and bounds. Since then. Clemson has come from the bottom of the heap, to the top. A field house has been built, and many improvements are anticipated in the future.

Professor Johnstone was a man of rare culture and of marked courage, but he was so modest and retiring that only his most intimate friends were aware of his real worth. He was by nature, training, habit and choice a gentleman. Shorty ' ' ' ' Schilletter Thanksgiving Day, and the Clemson-Furman game saw the passing of one of Clemson ' s beloved and colorful characters when Augustus Schilletter succumbed to a heart attack during the contest. Coming to Clemson when the college opened, Shorty was mess officer for twenty-six years. During that period, he endeared himself to thousands of Clemson students by his genial manner and by countless acts of unselfish devotion. His death came as he would have wished. Always interested in sports, Shorty endorsed notes which financed the Athletic Association in the trying nineties and after- w ards. He was seated on the Clemson bench, wearing an orange shirt with a purple necktie, when the nervous strain became too severe for his weakened heart, and he died as he had lived, plugging for Clemson. Clemson cadets, with loving hands, bore his body from the field, and the entire corps attended the Services at which he was laid to rest on the campus where his memory will be forever enshrined. Clemson hi c Reyiew CLEMSON COLLEGE, outstanding in the educational field today, is a silvery mirror, b rightly reflecting the scholarship, ambition, ex- perience and vision of Thomas G. Clemson. Those who know of his marriage to Anna Maria, the rich and talented daughter of John C. Cal- houn, immediately conclude that without the aid of this rather unique wife his sterling qualities would never have been perpetuated in a South Carolina institution. However those who delve deeper into his life and activities soon realize that Clemson College is the culmination of ears of study, of thought, and of vital interest in the various phases of science, particularly that of agriculture which absorbed his every effort. Thomas G. Clemson. a Pennsylvanian by birth, was born in Philadelphia on July I, 1807. Ten years of his early life were spent in studying chemistry in Paris. The year 183b found him a consulting engineer in Washington and in his home town. Two years later, after having mingled in the highest social circles of the Capital City, he became closely attached to Calhoun and married his daughter at Fort Hill, where the college is located, in November, 1838. There- after Calhoun learned from Clemson, and Clem- son from Calhoun. The newU married couple lived on what is now the college campus until 1844, when Mr. Clemson was sent to Belgium to serve in the American Legation. The college is situated on the old Fort Hill estate of Mrs. Calhoun, three-fourths of which was willed to her daughter, Mrs. Clemson. At the death of the mother, the estate was sold at public auction in 1866 to reclaim bonds ami mort- gages left against it by A. P. Calhoun, a son who had original ly owned the ground. With I homas G. Clemson paying S7,ooo and his wife $8,000, the estate was retained as family property. The period 1871 to 1874 found both Mr. and Mrs. Clemson busily engaged in securing addi- tional funds for the founding of an agricultural college. The people of the State were unable to help them and a promise of money never material- ized. The following year Mrs. Clemson died, willing the estate to her husband, pledging him to her desires, and to the ambitions which had been mutual. Mr. Clemson then willed the property to the State providing they would erect and maintain an agricultural college on the grounds. He died on April 6, 1888 without see- ing the result of his life ' s ambition under con- struction. In 1889, the General Assembly of South Caro- lina, acting on the decision of the U. S. Supreme Court to uphold the will, proceeded to convert the dream of Thomas G. Clemson into the reality of Clemson College. The institution was opened in July. 1893, with an enrollment of 446 students with the first graduating exercises coming in De- cember, 1896. This class numbered fifteen in agriculture and twenty-one in engineering. The college then advanced steadily under the wing of her three presidents during the period 1893 to 1 9 1 1 . The year 1896, found the college in need of a coach and engineering instructor. A young man by the name of Riggs was given this position, serving in this capacity until 1901. He was then elected to direct the engineering department. Ten years later the college lacked a president. Dr. Riggs was the most eligible man for the position at that time. He took the office realiz- ing that big opportunities and responsibilities were before him. For thirteen years the Clemson regime was in the hands of this able man. During his time he saw research in agriculture, textiles, livestock and fertilizer enter the constructive as well as in- structive stages of development. During ' the same years the agricultural extension division assumed a place of vital importance to the State, and engineering advanced almost too rapidly for the college to keep pace with it. Clemson in athletics was feared as a destructive foe during these years, taking many high honors in more than one sport. Dr. Riggs died in Washington, at a Land Grant Conference on January 22, 1924. All of those who knew him and his work here, revere the memory of his fighting spirit. Professor S. B. Earle, the present able and alert director of the engineering department, filled the president ' s chair, under trying circum- stances, from the time of Dr. Riggs ' death until September. 1925, when a new man was selected guide and direct the policies and activities of the college. The genius elected to assume the vitally im- portant role of president was Dr. Sikes, then president of Coker College for girls. Four years under this splendid man has served to reveal him as one with a liberal, constructive mind, who thinks clearly and is truly loved by all who know him. He is a man of striking personality — an exceptional leader of men. Having accepted his guidance as sufficient, and his wisdom as flaw- less. Clemson is now recognized and respected as an outstanding institution both along educa- tional lines and on the athletic field. The result of his untiring efforts are seen in the erection of the finest engineering and shop buildings in the South, the construction and completion of the I ' aee 41 Qlemson In ' Review first of the three units of a gymnasium and Held house, the acquisition of one of the finest and most able coaching staffs in this country, the molding of a competent curriculum and the selection of instructors who build men and raise the stand- ards of professions which college men must lead. Realizing that these all important advancements are the product of the broadminded leadership of Dr. .Sikes, the very highest admiration and praise s bestowed upon him. The future — what will it hold lor Clemson? It would not take a seer to answer this vital question if coming advancements are parallel to those of the past. The last time a prophecy was made a new engineering building and gymnasium were predicted as future developments. These are now realities. It might also be said that practically every improvement that has been made in or around the college, plus a few more, may be found in a prophecy which Dr. Riggs made about eight years ago. The present prophecy is, that the next few years will see the construction of the greatlj needed agricultural hall, textile build- ing, chemistry building and barracks, as well as the last two units of the field house. It is easy to say that the curriculum will always be equal to or surpass that of any other institution in the country. This will prove true because Dr. Sikes thoroughly believes that as long as he is president of Clemson College that he should do all within his power to make Clemson men eligible and fitted for the best positions which are offered to educated young men. Surveying the past with a critical eye and peering into the future with a most promising and hopeful imagination based on past records, it seems very evident that Clemson has been and will be one of the foremost colleges in the Nation. Her graduates uphold that un- daunted spirit which has permeated the life of the institution, the life of Thomas G. Clemson. and the lives of the presidents who have guided the college through the best and worst condi- tions. This spirit seems to say .Move on, move on, young man, for time and tide wait for none. You must give the world your best and the best will come back to you.

C, entered Clemson in September, 192b. His unfailing honesty and truthfulness, his depend- ability, and his quiet reserved wit soon commanded the highest respect from both students ami faculty. His keen mind, nobleness of principle, and untiring industry won him an endless number of friends. Clemson and the Class of 1930 lost its fourth be- loved son when Dean left us on January 2, 1930. Remembering this beloved cadet ' s days here the Corps makes its final salute to him who has journeyed on to That Beautiful Isle of Some- win- re. Page 9 1 Senior Qlass History f—s jl LONG the entire length of the Hinden- . J ill burg Line, I hurled death and destruc- tion into the ranks of those who are now my friends. In 191 8 I was captured and brought to America where I thought I was going to be left to rust and decay. In the summer of ' 26 I re- ceived a great surprise when I was brought to a fortress called Clemson and mounted in a com- manding spot on its campus. The place had an air of desertion, and my hopes began to wane until on September 12, I beheld an army cf splendid young men approaching the fortress. Among this large group, there appeared to be an element of green recruits who I learned were called Freshmen. They did not seem to realize the signif- icance of anything, and were h: rribly mistreated by the seasoned veterans. The ci ntingent called Sophomores seemed to harass them mi st. I felt a great pity for these Freshmen and was de- termined to make them my friends. I realized that I could not use my power to protect them ;h that was a thing of the past; but 1 would be- friend them at every op- pi Trunin that presented itself. Sometimes they would beat out on the old boys b coming out into the sunshine and sitting on my iron carriage or on the ground around me. I new found friends had a true fighting spirit, and they organized a powerful team that went out to engage their fi es in battle. Sometimes the enemj would invade their camp and make war on them, but never once did these Freshmen lose a battle on Riggs Field. Finallj the) went away and were gone for three long months. The grass grew long about me and I became very lonely. I waited patiently and in September of ' 27, was rewarded by the sight ot my returning friends. 1 smiled to my- self as I noticed the great change in them. They were now called Sophi mores, and were a great deal wiser than the had been the year previous. 1 hroughout the months of the year they became r versed in the secrets of Life. They could not be serious about anything, but laughed and made merry as the days and the months passed by. .As responsibility began to fall upon their shoulders, they became juniors. I was proud of them. They had learned the mysteries of that which I hope is to be no more — War, a hideous monster, who strikes down the flower of young manhood as fortune and fame are almost theirs. The sciences which they were pursuing had been partly mastered, and they became more learned. They knew well how to be courteous and also to be great sports. At the end of nine months they departed again, and I gazed after them sorrow- fully as they disappeared one by one. Their journey carried them to a great arm) fort. By day, for mam a weary week, they toiled in the merciless sun. perfecting their knowledge of the art of War; and by night, they made merrv at the dance with youth- ful members of the fairer sex. When the sun-tanned men of the Class of ' 30 returned as Seniors, I be- gan to leel an ache in my heart, because it was to be the last year that I should gaze upon the faces that had grown dear to me. They were now almost masters of the profession which the were to follow in the world of men. Many responsibilities were placed upon their shoulders during this year, but they unfalteringly discharged them to the best of their ability. A mighty Tiger team came from this class, and not once during the four years were their foes able to sub- due them when engaged in battle on the Tiger ' s own fighting soil. But the end is near, and the sturdy men of Clemson realizing it, gaze sorrowfully into each other ' s eyes as friends and pals clasp hands in a farewell which may be their last. May they go out into the world and continue to uphold the high ideals and lofty standards which belong to every loyal son of Clemson. Jaime M. Prim. Historian. (N ON w o D Si ?

The ship ' s ultimate goal was the port of diploma in the land of knowledge. To reach its destina- tion the ship would have to divide the trip up into four voyages. The passengers, wild-eyed and green, found the sailing a little easier than they had expected the first week but early in the second week we encountered that long-dreaded storm, The Sophomores. We did not see how some people could want so much and swing a brcom so viciously. Some of our number became seasick and gave up in despair after the first storm. But the rest of us mustered enough courage to continue on. After nine short months, in which we made friends that we will never forget, we sailed into port to end the first voyage which every passenger will remember as long as he lives. After three months of glorious vacation, the passengers assembled for the second voyage. Many of those that made the first voyage were missing when the roll was called and we un- furled our sails for the second time. We, the proud and know-it-all Sophomores, soon found that we were not as dumb as we thought — but dumber. After the first month we were attacked by a fleet of professors who shelled us with so many blue slips that we had to seek shelter. We soon realized that if we didn ' t snap out of it it would be just too bad. We all got down to some real hard work and by the end of the first semester we were just about out of the fog. As we neared the end of our second voyage one could easily tell that we were chang- ing, we were no more the green and dumb Fresh- men or the conceited Sophomores, but we were true and loyal Tigers of Clemson College. Be- fore we could realize what was happening we had come to the end of our second voyage. As our good ship set sail on the third and present voyage one could see that our Sopho- moric conceit was gone and in its place was a seriousness and earnestness of purpose. As we near the end of our third voyage we find that some of our passengers that made the first two voyages have fled to shore in a lifeboat. The passengers of the Good Ship ' 31 have been very successful in all phases of college life. Our athletes have been outstanding and we have maintained a high standard of scholarship. As our good ship nears port for the third time, there is a hustle and bustle among the passengers. They are preparing for the last great voyage where the waves are higher and the storms are fiercer. And here ' s to you Dear ole ' 31! may you sail safely into harbor and may your passengers be as successful on that last voyage as they have on the other three. And above all may they keep that Good Ole True Tiger Spirit. N. E. Watson, Historian. Page lOfl Atf pb s™ nj y | % Bl fl W. W.

Many heated receptions by the omnipresent Sophomores soon changed this greenness to an inner color of royal purple and gold. After undergoing the usual events of the Fresh- man year, the Good Ship ' 32 cast anchor on the longed for shores of Sophomoredom. Upon the termination of a three-months ' shore leave the crew of the stout ship ' 32 assembled once more to venture out on the seas of college life. Unlike the traditionary Sophomores who imagine themselves all-wive and who strut about like vainglorious lords of creation, they entered quietly and unassumingly upon their various duties. Deeply embedded in the heart of each and every man was the good ole Clemson spirit. Thej brought honor to their class and to Clemson. The year is passing rapidly and we feel the time approaching when we ' ll lose our crown. Wise Fools, and it is justly so, for we can no longer wear it with distinction. Have we been true to our creed, and worn it well? ( )n the athletic Held we are represented in fos tball, basket-ball, boxing, track and baseball. .Many of our number were instrumental in carry- ing the Yellow Peril through another year of successful football. The outcome of the other sports has yet to be determined, but indications point toward a successful year in all sports. We do not feel that our most important achievements have been in athletics, for in the classroom we stand high. Although our crew has been considerably reduced since the fall of 1928, the high standard of the classroom work has never been lowered. Xor shall we rest from our labors. W c must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, .And all we ask is a tall ship and a star to steer by, And the wheel ' s kick, and the wind ' s song and the white sails shaking, And a grey mist on the sea ' s face and a gre dawn breaking.

That is the fourth day of September, nineteen hundred twenty-nine, our first day at Clemson College. From all parts of the South we came, not dreaming what was in store for us. Our arrival was unheralded. The scene was a color- fid one, thanks only to mother nature. The grass was still wet and sparkling with recent rain ; the sun ' s splendor was reflected by the spec- trum spanning the western sky, the main building and the old clock tower were silhouetted against the blue of the mountains. After hours, the task of matriculation was ac- complished, and we were assigned t« our rooms. The first week was spent in getting acquainted with our professors and the regulations of the college. One week later the sophomores, juniors, and seniors arrived much to our chagrin. Rat Night was a great success as tar as the upper classmen were concerned. ( )ur comedians and musicians were given a chance at the limelight, and the latest styles in hair cuts were displayed. Soon the call of the gridiron was heard and answered In over a hundred young bengals. We hope to furnish some good material for the varsit) next year; at an} rate, the best that there is in us will be at the disposal of the coaching staff. Our victory over Carolina at the State Fair added much to our joyous spirit. Came Thanksgiving. We did not feel that we had er much to be thankful for, except that at last we had the opportunity to live the life of service which is said to be the best life after all. Well, there were plenty of chances to give service, all right. In turn, the basketeers, the boxers, and the wrestlers were summoned ; and the calls were answered in the true tiger spirit. Finally, the holidays came and passed all too soon. Ever} rat ' received a present from almost every old boy on their respective companies, however, none of those presents were delivered by mail. Rat Day was anticipated with pleasure ; when it was over, we began to hope for the time when ever} day would be rat day to us. The first snow fell in the last week of Jan- uary. The sophomores accepted our challenge to meet us on Bowman field in a snow fight. 1 he battle began right after dinner, and within fifteen minutes the sophomores were conspicuous by their absence. We had the misfortune to lose two of our fellow-classmates, Cadets J. W. Scruggs and Samuel Graham. It is with extreme regret that we think of these two young lives which wer e taken from our midst so early in their careers. With appalling swiftness, winter was crowded out by the approach of spring with her flowers and baseball chatter. We turned out a neat nine, and expect to place some stars on the varsity next year. Together, we have played the role of new boys, and we all hope to soon enter upon the great stage as SOPHOMORES. Perry Parrott, Class Historian. P ?e 127 In April, ipi8, the Senior Class as a body volunteered for service in the World War. One thousand five hundred and forty-nine Clemson men took fart in this struggle, and tzventy-five made the supreme sacrifice. VfUMr The Colors Pi _ ■ i 1 1 Colonel F. L.

Hodges The Clemson College Band was first organized as The Drum and Bugle Corps, but as the college made rapid increases in enrollment, and as much musical talent was present in the student body, a band, as well as a bugle corps, was formed. The hand at present is a fifty-two piece organization. The personnel consists of one captain, tour first lieutenants, six second lieutenants, first sergeant, and drum major. This year a general order was published making all Seniors in the band commissioned officers. Tin- band is under the direction of Mr. E. J. Freeman, a Clemson alumnus who once was a mem- ber of the band, and is now on the faculty Each year a state-wide tour is made so that the people of South Carolina may judge for themselves what a i ie musical organization the band is.

Prim htilitary History of Qlemson Realizing the pressing need of the State of South Carolina for a college to train its young men in the mechanic arts and agriculture a convention of the farmers of the state passed, in 1886, a resolu- tion advocating the establishment of an agricultural college. The matter was given definite form by the Hon. Thomas G. Clemson, son-in-law of John C. Calhoun, who died in 1888, leaving as a be- quest to the state the old Calhoun homestead, Fort Hill, consisting of eight hundred acres of land, and about eighty thousand dollars in other securities for the pur|pse of establishing an agricultural college. The legislature passed an act which became a law in November, 1889, accepting the bequest. The college opened July 6, 1893. with an enrollment during the first session of four hundred and forty- six students. Lt. J. L. Gassaway Lt. B. K. Hili.er Lt. D. R. Bostick Lt. W. N. Coleman Lt. G.

Si i ond Platoon P«ge 147 Company Q rT m Captain M. T. Geddings The act of July 2, 1802 ' donating public lanis to the several states and territories which may provide colleges for the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts, led to the establishment of a group of higher institutions, at least one in each state, having direct relations with the Federal Govern- ment and dedicated to a common purpose. The purpose as stated in the act was the promotion of the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes. As translated in institutional practice it has meant the professional training of men and women in agriculture, home economics, and various branches of engineering. The influence which these colleges have had on the development of Amer- ican life is perhaps the most far-reaching influence that has come from any educational source in the half century since the passage of the land-grant act.

Wannamaker Clemson Agricultural and Mechanical College of South Carolina benefits under this act of Con- gress and is therefore bound by its regulations, one of which requires that the leading object of the college shall be practical instruction in agriculture and the mechanic arts, including military tactics. Clemson, since its opening in July, 1893, has offered Military Tactics in its curriculum and has also had its student body organized as a military unit. This requirement of the Federal Government upon the college is reflected in the requirements of the college for a diploma. Each candidate for a degree must have completed a prescribed course in military training and must have lived in barracks for at least two semesters. Barracks life is the one thing that is strictly military at Clemson; the day starts and ends h a bugle. Lt. C. Gunnells Lt. J. A. Wilson Lt. H. B. Hun Lt. W. W. Ham: Lt. E.

Josey Since the opening of college in 189.? the corps has evidenced a steady growth and a gradual transition to conform with increased numbers and changes made by other institutions and the War Department. We have used no single institution as our model hut have taken the best phases of several in an effort to build an institution suited to the college men of South Carolina and the South. The uniform worn by the Clemson cadet has undergone a change no less than has clothing worn by his University brother. The first Clemson uniforms were form-fitting, high-collared, and were generously supplied with hrass buttons. This has undergone a gradual change until today we have a uniform modeled after that worn by an army officer. The color of our present uniform is cadet gray. Lt. R. E. Tor h i a Lt. J. II. Yon Lt. J.

Steps were taken to strengthen this defense by the authorities in the War Department. Among the results of this action was the forma- tion of the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps. By an act of Congress, June 18, 191 6, the organization of the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps was authorized. The primary object of the R. O. T.

O. T. C. is, therefore, an important agency in making effective the plan for national defense. l.T. R. I ' . SWOFFORD Lt. S. R. Power Lt. J. H. Yarborough Lt. C. S. Black Lt, J. L.

Robertson Clemson was among the first to establish an infantry unit of R. O. T. C. Today we have the largest single infantry unit of R. O. T. C. in the United States. A number of colleges and uni- versities in each army area which maintain exceptionally efficient R. O. T. C. units are designated an- nually by the War Department as Distinguished Colleges. A special inspection of institutions main- taining units is made each spring by a staff of army officers for the purpose of determining those insti- tutions which will be classified as the Distinguished Colleges for the ensuing year. This distinction permits five per cent, of the graduating class, named by the Commandant, to be designated as Honor Graduates by the War Department. These men may receive commissions in the regular army without fir st undergoing an educational examination. Clemson takes pride in the fact that she is a constant mem- ber of the Distinguished Colleges. Lt. E. S. Clyburn Lt. I ' .. I ' .. Riddle Lt. (.. II. Wise Lt. C. McMillan Lt. P. S.

At present we have thirty active army officers listed among our graduates. One thousand five hundred and forty- nine saw service during the World War. Of this number twenty-five gave their lives that their cause might be advanced. A memorial tablet bearing the names of these men who made the supreme sacri- fice marks the entrance to the college chapel. Clemson men in the Officers ' Reserve Corps number ap- proximately one thousand. The personnel of commissioned officers with the twenty-ninth infantry reserve is soon to be made entirely of Clemson men. This feature will increase interest in the O. R.

C. work are required to attend a six-week summer camp for special training between their Junior and Senior years. The Clemson men are attached to Fort McClellan at Anniston, Alabama, however a few men in former years have attended camp at Plattsburg, New- York. Lately a few men each year have attended the Chemical Warfare camp at Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland. The six-week encampment is a real taste of army life for every man. The training given at the camp is the finishing touch in the making of an officer. This, coupled with the training he gets with his Senior year at Clemson in leadership and command, should enable a graduate to become an efficient Lieutenant. The encampment is not looked forward to with a great deal of anticipation by many of the boys, but with the period behind one, it is a great experience and a cherished memory of college days. Lt. J.

(i. Page 171 You re In Th Army U (ow--- 1 HE conclusion of the commencement exercises at Clemson College saw a motley caravan, laden with Juniors from 111 that institution, resolutely setting their faces westward. They were off for a visit with their avuncular relative, Sam, that was to he in the form of a six-weeks house-party, all expenses and entertainment to be at their uncle ' s expense. The greater part of the travelers successfully passed such perils of the open road as nails, scarcity of iias, oil, and water, and steep hills and sharp curves, finally arriving in the city of Atlanta to repair themselves and rest their ' cars . The young gentlemen took that night whatever the city had to offer in the way of entertainment and diversifica- tion, and on the morrow continued their way westward with Anniston, Alabama and Camp McClellan as their goal. Some made non-stop flights to their destination, while others Hew between stops. Some got high-hat and breezed un- ceremoniously through certain small cities as though they were not there, and consequently left varying sums in them t the school funds and public works of the inhospitable places. Anniston welcomed the young gentlemen with open hands, and the future trainees were not backward in making the acquaintance of both sexes, especially the latter. Their welcome at Camp McClellan was of a different kind. There the] were identified, certified, classified, and finally supplied with various articles of equipment, including an instrument of torture called a folding cot and what seemed to be blue denim pajamas. Their opinion of the latter was changed later on; for the young gentlemen found that they would get very little sleep when they were wearing their pretty blue nighties . The next day they endured the ordeal of physical examination and the tor- ture of new shoes and spiral leggings; and following that, were initiated into the mysteries of cosmolined Springfields and disjointed packs. They saw army life from a very new and different angle; i. e., from the inside. But all was not work, though some thought that it was. The trainees soon became very well acquainted in Anniston, and from then en the town was the center of then activities. Just as soon as drill, or rather dinner, was over, the varied assortment of motor vehicles began to take off cityward, some under their own power and some because of the power exerted by would-be riders. The race to town was not to the swift, hut to the lucky. Once there, they made whatever form of whoopee their natures demanded. Dances were numerous, good, bad, and indifferent. The girls were numerous, good, bad, and indifferent, and that goes for the drinks. About three A. M. the exodus toward camp began for most of the amateur doughboys. Some stayed later, some got left ami hiked their way back to camp, and there was one case where the young gentleman in ques- tion went to sleep on the roof of the dance hall and didn ' t appear until reveille, footsore and not at all refreshed by his elevated slumber. After reveille the agony began. Drill, drill, drill. Water gone before the first ten- minute break. Branch water is not bad, however, when a canteen gets light and the mercury registers 11S degrees of hot heat in the shade and there is no shade. One di- minutive trainee from an agricultural and mechanical college in South Carolina actually tried to introduce the sport of swimming during one of the ten-minute breaks. It did not prove as popular as one might think with the nurses that our kind uncle provided to watch over us and instruct us in the art of war. About the middle of the training period the trainees were initiated into the mysteries of the target range, two and a half miles out and forty miles back. There some of them got bulls, some got fours, threes, and twos, and some saw with embar- rassment that the indelicate young gentlemen in the pits in- decorouslj waved some scarlet lingerie reputed to belong to a young woman named Margaret before their eyes. It was so embarrassing that some were actual h humiliated and chagrined. The range work helped a lot of- the trainee to enlarge their already adequate You ' re V Qt Behind Tk ' Plow vocabularies with luridly descriptive terms applying to the arm} and those connected with it. These terms were used with picturesque similarity to describe the heat and the man who invented Springfield rifles. After the episode of the target range the trainees settled down to the routine of camp life. Naturally this was not to be, for they were in the army now . The powers that were in Camp McClellan decided that the young gentlemen should know something of the surrounding terrain, and fatuously expressed the wish that they should view it afoot. Strange as it may seem, all of them decided to go on this novel expedition. Some pretended to resent this show of interest by the officers, but they also went. A mile after the tour started the water gave out. Another mile and all tongues were out. Still another mile and one little fellow began to wobble under the weight of his pack and rifle. Then Captain Johnson, familiarly known as ballyhco, said: Son, let me show you how to carry a pack. and without more ado swung the heavy pack to his shoulders and trudged on. The march seemed endless, but finally the route led across a small creek. Canteens were refilled and spirits were revived. When the rifle range was reached at Last, dinner was served from G. I. cans by K. P. ' s who had at last drawn a crip. Shelter tents were pitched and that night the trainees were amazed to find out exactly how many bones they had in their bodies. The next morning the whole bunch arrived back in camp, having walked fourteen miles and still were no farther than they were when they started. The army was satisfied with the number of sore muscles and blisters that the trainees had acquired. The next big event was the transformation of Camp McClellan from Camp Mc- Clellan to Fort McClellan. All the officers were spic and span in their party clothes, for no less person than the Chief of Staff of the Armies of the United States was to be the guest of honor. He received a salute of a barrage when he arrived, and the chore of changing names was quickly completed ; but not until we had listened to several after dinner speeches in the morning sun delivered by the ever-present congressmen and big- shots . We found out, however, that the sun was no respecter of names, for he shined down on Fort McClellan just as hard as he ever did on Camp McClellan. From this ceremony until the end of camp there was little doing outside of the usual and very regular drill, except a lot of K. P. and guard duty. The Clemson men will be proud to know that they were more in demand in the various company kitchens than were the men from any other two schools. It all goes to show that Clemson men will distinguish themselves anywhere if given only half a chance. Boxing bouts helped to re- lieve the tedium. The pugilistically inclined young gentlemen from Clemson tied with L. S. U. for the Corps Area Championship. Some say that the captain of the Clemson team did not give the spectators their money ' s worth, for some were lighting cigarettes and missed his championship fight. Perhaps that was thoughtless of Rock . He should have given the spectators some kind of song and dance before he put his man to sleep. As a house-party the six weeks at camp was a flop. As a rest cure it was worse. Everything that could be wrong with a place was wrong with Camp, or Fort, McClellan. The days were too hot. The water was too cold. The food was not up to the Epicurean standard. The reveille hour was atrocious. The regulations were a bunch of imbecilical nonsense framed by nitwits. Nevertheless, we had the time of our lives; because everyone had to do the things that were done; because we were young and not easil} downcast; be- cause we were a bunch of good fellows drawn together in a common dislike for military discipline and forced to adhere to it and like it. is. we had the times of our lives, but — are we going back to the Arm) ?

FROM LONG ROLL TO TAPS. Page 178 Rifle Team When the call was sounded in September for rifle team candidates, many cadets yielded to that inate masculine desire to become a good shot and answered. Some were experienced, but most of them were taught from fundamentals to fine points of marksmanship by cur able instructor Lieut. P. H. Kron. At the beginning of firing, many were misses, and targets mure resembled sieves than epics of sharpshooting. But sympathetically our instructor bore our lack of skill, and with the aid and demon- stration of the able team captain, W. F. Hughes, taught the men just what good shooting means and how to effect it. We of the rifle team shoot because we like shooting: we have stuck to it and we are proud of our great improvements in records. The scores have rot yet been received from our competition in the W. R. Hearst Trophy Match in which the team competed, but we made quite a creditable standing in the Fourth Corps Area Match. In a shoulder-to-shoulder match with Davidson on March 22, the first of its kind to be held at Clemson, we cracked out a victory to the tune of 901 to 874, and we are slated for a return match on April 12. Matches will also be scheduled with other schools. It is hoped that our efforts and perseverance to hold high the name Clemson will win us unqualified success and that shooting will continue to be recognized by our athletic association as a minor sport. m, far 1 Wu . new athletic program at Clemson promises greater victories than the Tiger has ever achieved.

Football TTir ' ill ' - football season of ' 20 was marked by many spectacular victories by the Yellow Peril, heralded by -™ 1 - pre-season writers as one of the strongest teams in the Southern Conference and in the nation at large. Several went so far as to say that the Yellow Peril would not be defeated during the season, and if their schedule were a little harder, would stand a good chance of representing the South and the East in the Tournament of Roses at Pasadena in the New Year ' s game with the pick of the western teams. The results of the first part of the season seemed to corroborate the statements made so early in the season. For j weeks we were the leading team in the nation in the number of games won and the number of points scored against opponents. How these predictions held up can be seen later on. MEETZE The competent young man pictured here is Mr Meetze, better known as Sap. and his primary weakness is to play the part of manager to the ball- toting boys from Clemson. lint little can one judge from this picture this young man ' s abilit) to earn a ball li can lie truthfully said that Sap carried more balls to the place of victorj than any other on the ham. s a manager he is good: as a ball toter he falls jusl short of perfection. Com- bined with this lie is a wonder in brokeii-tield running. With a bucket under each arm and a SpigOl 111 view he is a [2 second man oil any old field, but especially over plowed ground. Page 180 ASB1LL Due to a loss in weight Henry did not have many chances to show his ability as a football player, but what time he did play, his performance at end was pleasing to observe and was worthy of com- ment. Besides playing end Henry also punted when his aid was needed to help carry the team onward. Even when rushed Henry did not cramp his style, but wielded just as wicked a hoof as when more favorable conditions pre- vailed. His absence from the field of football will be readily noticed next reason, especially when there is need for someone who can boot a ball. The football curtain was raised in South Carolina by the contest on Riggs Field with the Newberry Indians furnishing the opposition for the Tigers. The Yellow Peril breezed through the Redskins to ring up 68 points for us. Coach Cody used every man on his then uncut squad in this game. The scene changed to Charlotte, X. C, with Davidson furnishing the opposition. Johnny Justus, Goat McMillan, and the others found them made of sterner stuff than the Indians, but the Tiger score was larger by 18 points than that of the clawing Wildcats. The score read ,;2 to 14, the largest score against Davidson that any team had scored in years on their home field. The Tiger of the Plains, led by a squirming, twisting halfback, tried to give their kinsman of the hills a dose of his own medicine, but all they carried back to Auburn with them was the small end of a 26 to 6 score. X. C. State at Florence fared little better, or rather a little worse, as they were unable to score against the ( fASSAWA Jim, as he is called, is one of the young giants that helped make the Clemson team what it was during the pasl season.

The big event of the state of South Carolina has for years been the State Fair and the Clemson-Carolina game during Fair week. Carolina came into this game to win it by various, subtle means that could only come from the mental processes of one Billy Laval. His wits were mure than matched by the hard driving and harder tackling by Big Josh ' s menagerie of Tigers, for when the feathers and fur had ceased t o fly, the score st 1 2] to 14, with the Tiger on to]) of a heap of feathers. It is unusual in a game like this to see all the extra points kicked bv both sides. As the daily papers said, Clemson won the game and Carolina won the money, by reason of two intercepted passes and some remarkable interference by the Minis. The first downs were in the Tiger ' s favor. _ _ to 2, giving an idea of whose territory the game was played in. HANK Due to an operation for appendicitis Kit was unable to play in any of the games at the first of the season, however near the latter part he participated in several but never for a whole game. This set-hack placed him at a handicap when competing with the other players, but Kit played a good game to the last although he did not take part in en ough encounters to lie awarded the coveted Block C .

The short distance Erom his pants to the ground combined with his speed has puzzled many an opponent as to why he caught a piece of turf in place of a pan of hgs. JONES During Bob ' s first two years at College his presence on the foot- hall squad was hardly known, but with the coming of Coach Cody, Bob made his debut in the field of football. From that day until the end of the season of ' _• ;. he has starred in every game. This sea- son he played a position at end and he played it to perfection. When Bob went on the field he went to play, and he put his heart and soul into his action. Bob was ■ ' lie of the most consistent players ■ in the team; and fans seldi failed to get a feeling of satisfac- ? tion out of the steady, determined playing of this end. Since he is eligible it is hoped that he will return and play another season. In the Kentucky game the Clemson supporters received their greatest blow, when the Tiger ' s undefeated record was smashed into smithereens as the Wildcates amassed the enormously onesided score of 44 to 6. The Wildcats had a strong, fast team of mudhorses, led by one Shipwreck Kelly, and with their double, wing- back formation, piled up thirty points in the first half, — a modern record against the Tigers. The Flying Squadron of Virginia Military caught the Tigers on the rebound from the Wildcats and let them down easy to the tune of 12 to O, our first and only shutout. The Florida ' Gators, outplayed, outfought, and outgeneraled by a nearly desperate Tiger, finally outscored the Tigers by one touchdown after trailing them throughout the first part of the game. Citadel came to Tigertown to try to repeat their surprise attack of last year, but after playing the Tiger ' s reserves for the first half, were dismayed to the extent of 13 points when the ball-bearing boys from the first Tiger team came into the fray. The big grudge game of the year came on Thanksgiving, when the Tigers MAGILL For three wars Dick has been a member of the varsity, but this past n he did not show up so well. Si me of the old Magill vim and vigor was absent from his playing, and the singleness of purpose and determin tion 111 his action had faded from his make-up. A Magill played on the Inn not the old Dick Magill. Nevertheless his action was com- mendable and what time he did play, was a recognizable similarity in ln ' s playing with that of Dick Magill of a seas. m ago. When Dick is plav- ing his besl game, there are but few men on the team that can hold the lite plunges i ' he opponent any more substantially than he.

With the conclusion of the last play of the Furman game, thirteen Tigers ended their gridiron careers . - Clemson men. though three of them were asked to play in the Charity game in Atlanta on Xew Year ' s Day, and accepted, and gave a good account of themselves. They were Swofford, Gunnells, and McMillan. These thirteen men came to Clem-on when her athletic endeavor was at it lowest ebb and have seen her rise, largely through their own efforts, to her present status. During the three years that these men played on the Clem-on varsity, Clemson has lost the state championship by ore game, tied for it once, and then won the present state pennant. Not a single game played on Riggs Field has been lost, and only one has been tied during all that time. These men have given their best to Clemson and their passing is a real loss to the school.

Nevertheless Jug sometimes man- aged to free himself and to startle the crowd by carrying the ball twenty-five and thirty yards down the field. He was the leader of the so- called second team that always held the oppo: after the first team had failed. In the Citadel game his team held the Bulldogs intact on the defensive and made many yards gain through their line on the offensive.

While Clemson did not fulfill all the great things said of her by the sports writers during the past season, still we can look back over the various gridirons where the Tiger battled, and feel proud that we could be repre- sented by such a team of real, true Tigers. . ■ ' •■«. SWOFFORD B : i is one of the old stand-bys in the football yam.-. He plays guard and he plays it well. Bob was a thorn in the side for the opponents and especially when they tried to buck the line. He given a place on the coveted mythical All-State team and was asked to play in the All-Star Charity Game on New Yea I aj in Atlanta. Here he showed his real merit when his side successfully repulsed all charges oxer his section of the line until some other player was substituted for him. He will be a loss to the team. Page in WOODRUFF Foggy played an end on Josh Cody ' s football team the past season, and when lie was not feel- ing for a pass, he was back punting. Although le is not fast, he delivers both direction and distance when he does punt. For the play-, where might is right, Foggy is in his element and he plays 11- game well. Like Jones he did not play his Sophomore year and is therefore eligible for one more year ' s playing. The name Foggy is misleading. It was not meant to implv the amount of knowledge that passed into his head but the small amount that was retained.

Page L91 JUSTUS The small, fast backfield man that has thrilled more spectators in the past two years than any other backfield man on the Tiger team is this same Johnny Justus. Besides being one of the fastest men on the team, he is also one of flu- best at broken-field running. The man with the Moating hips, as one sports writer dubbed him after seeing him elude the tackles of over a third of the opposing team, is a stabilizer to the team under losing conditions. All these qualifications combined with a cool head and common sense proves conclu- sively that Justus is the man for next year ' s Captain. In this position with the co-operation of the team, a record season is expected of Johnny and the team. n .

A wee. wee 1 iger, composed of approximately eighty of Clemson ' s stalwart freshmen showed signs of quick maturity by sustaining a very successful season. Three wins were credited to Clemson, while two hard fought gamc went to the credit of Furman and Florida. Plebe teams from Newberry, Carolina, Furman, The Citadel, and Florida felt the immature claws of this true representative of Tigertown ' s feline ferocity. Coaches Guyon, Gee, and Goodale literally shot the bolt in the initial game. Over seventy future Timers braved the elements of the Newberry Indians, and not one failed to respond as a true Clemsonite. Score: Clemson. 34, Newberry, O. At Columbia, the baby Timers came, saw and conquered. A thirty-yard drop-kick by Miller, the bo] from the land of sunshine and real estate proved to be the only score of the game. The entire team fought with the proverbial incessant spirit that prevails in every meeting of these two teams. Voight, Lambert, and Miller deserve mention as beautifully performing backs, while Davis. Proctor, Rivers and Anthony showed promise of great linemen. Score: Clemson, 3, Carolina, O. Furman at Greenville. Such was the cry of the Cubs in the next fracas. Though defeated, the school was proud of the manner in which the well coached te;:m played. Footsie Davis. Armstrong, and Rivers were the outstanding Clemson men in this game. Score: Clemson, o, Furman, 2. On a muddy Held, the entire squad of aspirant; turned back the boys from the city by the sea. Punting and fumbles galore featured this game. Miller and Voight showed their capable mettle. Score: Clemson, 21, Citadel, o. As a grand Hnale, the Cubs were gloriously defeated by the Florida junior ' Gators. Davis and Lambert held the spotlight in this battle. Proctor also demonstrated his ability to ileal terrible punish- ment to his foes. Minus the able services of Anthony, Armstrong, and Voight, the team upheld wonder- fully the standard of Clemson. Score: Clemson, 13, Florida 26. Numerals were awarded the following: Anthony, Burns, Guy, Davis, Flagg, Rivers, Miller. Potts. Proctor. Heineman, Nettles, Riley, Voight, Lambert, Armstrong, Crook, Chapman, Craig, Gallman, Williams. Strom, Logue and Wilson. Naturallj we feel we had a very satisfactory season. Due credit is given to the coaches who in- stilled this true Clemson spirit in these men. Great deeds in the football history of Clemson will no doubt embrace the names of these rapidly growing Tigers. I ' dpr 198 Captain Jones ' Basketball 200 tite Basket-Ball m The season of ' .}n opened with the spirit of victory at a high pitch due to the utmost confidence and faith in Josh Cody ' s stellar cage team. Riding on a wave of triumph the first to fall before the Bengal basketeers was the Seceders of Erskine. In like manner the Blue Socks of P. C. were over- whelmed by the score of 47 to 17. Following this burst of victories at the first of the season came a time of depression when the Timers played the Super-Wildcats of Kentucky and the L niversity of Tennessee, and were decidedly beaten in both encounters. On Januarj 7 the New Field House was dedicated and opened by the game with the Purple Hurricane. This Field House which represents the realization of Director Gee ' s dream of Athletic- progression at Clemson, and which now stands as a milestone to the development sustained here since his arrival, has been a booster of the fighting spirit of the men and the mainstay in the production of a stellar team to represent Clemson. The attached glamour to the opening was not lessened by the fact that the home team was defeated by a few points. A series of games followed in which the team from Tigerville suffered but few defeats. Auburn was beaten on their own court and Ga. Tech followed with a score of 25 to 24 in favor of the Ti er Cage men. Doodle Thomas, diminutive forward, was responsible for the extra point in this game. Until the middle of February this versatile player was high scorer in the Southern Conference, but near the close of the season his record was bettered by Captain Bob Jones who was runner-up for high scorer. The Tijier Basketeers defeated all teams in the state except Furman who repeated their victory at the opening of the Field House on their own territory. During the course of events the proud and mighty ' and twice fell before the Timers in defeat; Sewanee was beaten by two points; and the powerful ' Gators suffered a double defeat at the hands of the cage team of Tigerville. The University of Geor- gia ' s superb team won twice over the Tigers, and the smooth-working subtle Wildcats from Kentucky wamped our team again as they had done earlier in the season. Three state games were canceled due to the quarantine caused by the prevalence of spinal meningitis among the Corps, and one was canceled because it interfered with the team ' s plan to attend the Conference Tournament in Atlanta. Our rating at the Conference Tournament was questionable but our record was creditable never- theless. The Tigers were matched with the favorite of the Tournament, University of Alabama, and as usual suffered their defeat at the hands of the future Southern Conference Champions h a score of 33 to 22. Page 209 f Captain Zeigler Baseball Page 204 ' Baseball w No team during the season oi 2 j showed more improvement than did the Tiger baseball team. With a team composed almost entirely of second-year men, it looked as it Coach Guyon ' s efforts to build a team worthy to represent Clemson would be futile. It seemed nearly impossible to get the necessan teamwork and co-operation among the players, but as the season progressed a marked change occurred, and the once feeble, uncertain Tiger team changed to a ferocious, subtle machine slowly push- ing on to a definite goal. .Many were the teams whose high hopes were shattered by the eager, in- vincible Tigers. ( )ut of the last nineteen games played by the Tigers, the) lost only two of the whole number, and not one of these was to a state team. This remarkable change may have been due to the improvement of the players ' batting, fielding, and pitching abilities, or the credit may be due to the un- tiring efforts of Coach Guyon; but a large part of the credit and the improved quality was due to the spirit t the team itself — the Tiger spirit. The team could have continued in the low plane in which they started out, but with confidence in themselves and the willingness to co-operate prevailing among the member-, of the squad, they pulled themselves together and formulated a team that we were proud of and they should be. Due to the large number of sophomores and juniors on the squad, the [930 team should be the best one Clemson has had in a decade. No other school in the south has ever begun a season with better material than Coach Guyon will have at his disposal at the beginning of the coming season. Page 208 Captain Lester Track Track The Tiger track team made the best showing it has made in years, and succeeded in copping all the meets with the state teams on its schedule. In the Tech Relays the Tiger sprinters showed their merit and their heels, being second only to Indiana ' s crack flashes. In the State Track Meet, Clemson finished eleven points ahead of its nearest rival. Two state records fell under the flying feet of the Tiger distance men. Lineberger lowered the time for the mile run and Andrews did the same for the two-mile run. Coach Carson ' s track wonders deserve a world of credit for the spirit and results shown during the season. -ns N EWWIAhl 1 zAthletics at Qamp • : eLEMSON, bv virtue of its preponderance of attendance anions the schools represented at camp, was prominent in the Held of athletics at the house-party this summer. Most of the various contests were held in a very informal manner, but this detracted little from the interest displayed in the events. Our baseball career at camp was very short. We were in the sad position of a pretty good team and no pitcher. We made plenty of runs, but Davidson seemed to always stay just far enough ahead to u in the game and eliminate the pitcherless Tigers. In the aquatic contest, the most exciting match of the summer. Clemson won over the best that Florida, Citadel and L. S. U. could launch against us. Robbie Smith was high scorer in this match, which match depended on the result of the relay to determine the winner. We won the relay by a margin of some twenty yards, and received the coveted cup. When the finals in boxing came around, we found ourselves runner-up to L. S. U. for the cham- pionship, not because of the number of victories they had chalked up, but because of the number of the men entered in the matches. Both schools won seven championships, but the preponderancy of L. S. Q. ' s entrants gave them the cup. The track meet was held in the rain and on a muddy field. We came out third when the score was finally computed following the valiant efforts of our representatives in each contest. We should be proud of the record we made at camp, because most of the contestants that rep- resented us were impromptu athletes, and they covered themselves with glory on their athletic debut. Page 210 Capt. Rodgers Capt. Smith Capt. McCarley Capt. Finn Minor Sports 2 01 xnig V, The boxing team under the guidance of its feather- weig ht Captain, Johnny Rogers, made an enviable record this season. They were matched with some of the strongest teams in the South, and although they won but few matches, their consistent winning just one bout short of victory tends only to show the real merit of the team. Several times bouts were lost merely because the Tigers were fighting in the enemy ' s territory, but with men like Torchia, Gassa- wav, Seigel, Big-Gun Cannon, and others to back him up, Coach Guyon was bound to have a team that would make a creditable showing against any op- ponent. Since only two men are to be lost from this year ' s team, next year ' s team promises to be the best that has ever been at Clemsnn.

Already great strides have been made towards the development of a stellar swimming team. This past season was ver successful, not from the number of victories attained, but because it brought the sport before the members of the Corps and gave the team recognition before all other colleges of the South. After having overcome the basic difficulties in starting a new sport, the future prospects of a swimming team at Tigertown appear unusually bright. The mainstays of this year ' s team were Ca ptain Smith and Crutchfield. These two amphibians garnered the major portion of the points scored by the team during the season ' s competition, and in recognition of their services the) were the only ones given the Block C by the Athletic Council. Both of these men are back and will no doubt splash plenty of water in the faces of opponents that crowd them too closely. These men cannot and are not expected to win the meets by themselves. Nor are they likely to win by themselves since their valiant efforts are supplemented by the able assistance of other members of the team who strive just as hard to win honors tor Clemson. With the past experience and the present material and equipment, next ear ' s team promises to out- class all that has gone before. Page 214 Tennis • :: McC.ARLEV Tennis at Clemson has been handicapped consider- ably the last few years, because of the lack of inter- est and courts. Last year, although the team did not have a very successful season, the fire was kindled and one may see the results already. Every day the courts are occupied with enthusiastic cadets, hoping to make the team sometime in the future if not this year. At the end of last season McCarley was chosen Captain for the coming year, and under his leader- ship, the team should have a successful season. Although the playing of Johnson, Calvert, and Kline will be missed, the prospects for this year are very bright. Dual matches have been scheduled with the L Di- versity of South Carolina, Citadel, Erskine, Wof- ford, and Presbyterian College. The team will end the season by participating in the State meet, which is to be played at Columbia on May 8. 9 and 10. Psge -■ 1 Qross Country Fin The season of ' 2c; revealed nothing new in this sport to Clemson men. because the majority of them lacked interest enough to find out what it was all about. So little interest has been manifested that even though it is recognized as a minor sport, the Cross Country team is threatened with antiquity. Since this team furnishes distance men for the track team, men who are interested in running should be encouraged to go out lor it in order to strengthen the track team, if for no other reason. The three and five mile courses develop the staying powers of the athletes as no other -port or exercise can hope to do. The Cross Country team dropped a dual meet to Georgia Tech over a three mile course, ami near Thanksgiving, they attended the Southern Confer- ence meet at Chapel Hill. Here they ran over a five mile course against the best men in the South and made a very creditable showing. Page •-•! R. J. McCarley President % oc c C C lub B. L. Hewitt R. S. Howard O. D.

Approximately ten thousand swims are taken in here each summer and it is difficult to estimate the numher of cadets who revel in this sparkling, turbulent tank. Visitors from all over the state, visiting teams from the state, and other groups of people are Linens here from time to time. Children ' s plaj hours in the summer are followed h swimming hours in the pool. Some of the best swimmers of Winthrcp are generous with their time and talent and assist greatly as instructors and life guards during the summer months. Man) boys take the Red Cross Life Savers tests here under the leadership of Messrs. Satterlee and Vaughan. The Clem in swimming team, captained b Robbie Smith and coached by Mr. Holtzy, also train- here and has meets here. This spring the swimming pool w as worked over, repainted, and put in first class condition. c B ligious Programs J. S. Carpenter, Chairman Sunda) night vesper service is a very good example of the work which tin ' s committee has in its charge. It also sees that other religious programs are put on several times during the year. Bible Study E. C. BvRD, Chairman Assistants: Bowen, Hogarth, and McLaurin Bible study groups were organized the first semester for the freshmen and the second semester tor all the classes. A verj good attendance was obtained at these meetings and we feel that a great deal of good came from them. These groups were led by members of the faculty. Qospel Teams I). C. HUDGENS, Chairman A number of delegations were sent to the different colleges in the state in return for programs brought here by these different colleges. Work w.ts also done by the Ciospel teams in cam ing pro- grams to some of the near-by towns. Social Committee D. C. TuRRENTINE, Chairman The social committee of the Y. M. C. A. has charge of the socials put on by that organization. Each year the Y. M. C. A. gives a reception and program to each of the four classes. It also aids in man) ways in other socials of the campus. The Junior-Senior Reception is carried out each year by a joint committee composed of the Y. M. C. A. social committee and the Junior-Senior class. j (ew Students R. C. Wiggins, Chairman Assistants: Fridy and Burroughs In order to work most effectively with the new students the Freshman Council i organized. From a representative group of the class more can be accomplished. The council meets weekly to discuss its problems. Through these discussions there is treated a lasting friendship. Evening Match ( i. II. WlSE, Chairman The work of this committee is to see that Evening Watch groups ate organized on each coin- pans hall and function .is thej should. This year a graph was plotted for the evening watch groups just to see how miiih slope COlild he added to the line. Page 278 Conferences L. O. Clayton, Chairman Assistants : Black, Hendricks, and Farish This committee chooses the representative delegates to the various conferences, which are: Stu- dents Volunteer Conference, Student International Volunteer Conference, The State Retreat, and The Student Conference at Blue Ridge, N. C. Last summer the Clemson Y. M. C. A. was represented by thirteen student members, all three Secretaries, and a number of Advisory Board members and ministers at Blue Ridge. Qhurch Relations W. H. McLeod, Chair man This committee works thn ugh the different religious organizations of the campus, drawing them into a closer union. The committee plans the time and place for union meetings in which each society has a part. Strictly religious meetings are net its only interest, however, for union socials play an important part in offering the cadets opportunities to know each other better and to come into contact with the young people of the campus. Throughout the year four union meetings were held, each in the church whose society was sponsor- ing the program. Between the first and second meetings, and the third and fourth meetings, a union social was held. Publicity C. V. RENTZ, Chairman Assistants: O ' Cain. Thames, and Cooper The work of this committee is to see that all news of interest concerning the Y. M. C. A. ami its work is published in The Tiger. It is the duty of this committee to see that not only the cadets and campus people but that outsiders as well know what the Clemson Y is doing. It is left up to this committee to find out what other Y. M. C. A. ' s are doing, and to compare our work with theirs. Boys Work G. F. Kirch ner, Chairman The Hi-Y club of the Calhoun-Clemson hi h school has been doing some fine work this year under the leadership of Cadet Oliver McDaniel. A feature event of this year was the Father-Son banquet held at the Y cafe. Dr. Daniels was the principal speaker on that occasion. A Saturda) morning gym class ami swimming period were held a part of the year lw Cadet Fred Pollard. zJtiCernbership Committee S. B. EaRLE, Jr., Chairman The membership committer was organized this year tor the first time. Its purpose was to canvass the student body — to find out which men wanted active membership in the Y. M. C. A. and which -■in-, wanted associate membership. Approximately four hundred of the cadets sigied for active membership when the canvass was made in October, just before the state fair. jt:i lA Brief History of the Qlemson T. M. Q Organized by Fletcher Brockman in i8 j( , the Clemson College Young Men ' s Christian Asso- ciation has experienced some very trying times. Some of the members who stood loyally by the Y in th se days when it was not popular to be a member, tell of hardships and trying circumstances that make one wonder how it ever weathered these storms. These circumstances seem to have been the making of some tine men. however, and it was not long before Mr. Ray Legate was elected as the tirst full-time secretary. Mr. Legate was succeeded by Mr. Noel Prevost and Mr. Prevost in turn was succeeded by Mr. Bob Sweeney. It was during the administration of Mr. Sweeney that the present building campaign was launched and completed. Dr. Y. M. Rijzjzs and Dr. Y. I). Weather- ford, as well as a host of others, including Professor Hunter, Dr. Brackett, Dr. Daniel, Mr. Clinkscales, Mr. S. Y. Evans, Dr. Calhoun, Professor Earle, Professor Lee, Professors Martin, Klugh, Harris and others worked until thej succeeded in getting Rockefeller to give $50,000.00 toward the building, pro- vided the Board of Trustees ami friends raise the additional $15,000.00. The building was com- pleted in [915 and dedicated in January, 191(1. Mr. Rcj John was the first secretary of the Y in new quarters. Mr. John Lester of Auburn was the first Assistant Secretary. Mr. Holtzendorff succeeded Mr, Lester as Assistant Secretary in [916. Messrs. Fields, Bryant, Stoney, McClure, Fox, Robinson, Vaughan, and Cooper are other Secre taries who have labored faithfully and well at Clemson. Page Sabre Club M. I). Ware F. Y. Mercer F. B.

To it are admitted the members of the Senior Class of the School of Electrical, Mechanical. and Civil Engineering whose scholastic averages place them in the highest fifth of their class, and whose char- acter has been found satisfactory by the other members of the fraternity. Tau Beta Pi was established at Clemson in 1928. In order to secure this chapter, the engineers of the Class of ' ' 27 organized a local fraternity known as Eta Epsilon Sigma. In 1928 this society presented a petition to the national council, and it was passed on favorably at the convention held in St. Louis. The chapter at Clemson, Alpha of South Carolina, was the fifty-second chapter to be installed in the United States. Nine members of the faculty of the Engineering Department belong to this national organization. II. V. DORSETT esponding Secretary J. J. Butler Recording Secretary M. T. Geddings Cataloger Page 28!

It is entirely a student organization, thus its existence is dependent upon student vocal talent. The club is selected from a number of students who voluntarily take part in this work. All desirable qualities are considered, but interest and regularity play quite an important part in the selection. Since there is no one employed as music instructor at Clemson, Prof. W. L. Lippincott has taken unending interest and has given unlimited time in helping the club. Each year a state tour is made, and for one week the members have an opportunity to make friends, see the and boost Clemson. Several overnight trips are made, and the season is brought to a close by the pro- gram at Clemson. ROLL Po VG, J. C. Latham. E. E. Clerc, S. E. Hicks, Y. L. Searight, C. V Smith, R. X. Goff, J. T.

Today, an understanding of the business side is absolutely necessary for any leader or farmer who is to proceed intelligently and successfully. Clemson College liegan later than some schools to meet this interest and need. But she has gradually liiiilt up economic research and a teaching curriculum closely allied. Ten years ago, one course — Farm Manage- ment — was offered here. Now there are about 15 courses, including graduate work. The Division of Agricultural Economics is proud to see its first major class finish the B. S. degree work in the present school term. This is not wholly an experiment, for we believe the courses are meeting a clear cut demand, and that the men in this charter ' ' class will he able to successfully cope with economic problems as they go into different lines of work. We intend to keep a careful record of each class that goes out, and, need less to say, will watch results with great interest. I r.cMwsum n.MuifNM Hit 3k WH.Wl.JtNifN II Hi.

Page 301 Fraternities 1 • C-i  y LARIA the situation at Clemson is becoming more and more complex. There has come a III daj when the military discipline has dropped to a low ebb and fails to carry with it that certain rigidity which binds cadets into the confinement which the rules stipulated in the book of regulations would enforce. The d ay when military rule reigned supreme is a daj of a past era — gone, never to return again, under the existing revelation to which a few years of laxity have led us. Clemson is pro- gressing bj leaps and bounds; no college in the state has enjoyed such expansion and recognition as the State A. and M. College has in the past fleeting y ars. Change, constant change, change which is only complimentary with the progress of the growing institution has at last uncovered with it those problems which have always laid dormant under the restraining aspect of OLD CLEMSON. Will Clemson accept Fraternities? In January of [930, the attention of the Secretary of State was called to what has irown to be a national issue: College Fraternities. The Secretarj recognizes Greek-letter Fraternities as a moral necessity of college environment. Social fraternities are so recognized as mandatory mental and social aids that an alumni ' s fondest memory associations revert to the fraternities: their grouping, standards, and combined efforts to better all phases of campus life. Inasmuch as the social life at Clemson, ex- cept for monthly efforts to renew the glowing spark of entertainment, has succeeded in fading into oblivion, it seems that a radical change is due, and that in no distant future. Fraternities, not only the greatest social advantage possible to the individual members, are the best tonics conceivable for the stimulation of a school ' s withered and drooping morale. At the present, more than Diogenes and his lamp are needed to unearth the collegiate atmosphere that predominates the campuses of Wofford and Piedmont colleges to a more noticeable degree than at Clemson. Constant association, never-changing routine, and the necessity of leaving college completely, all serve to materially lessen the spice we should all like to associate with our college days. There are in existence at Clemson, a number of secret organizations, all working with the ultimate hope of affiliating with a nationally known order. Many others are in the process of forma- tion. Undue suppression detracts from their capability to serve the college to their fullest extent. A national order under administrative supervision is the only possible and plausible stimulation to fullest service, due to the fact that every fraternity, when chartered is answerable directly to the college authorities. The people of South Carolina have recojmi pd the power and desirability of social fraternities. ( )nly a clear conception of this fact could have lead to the repeal of the Anti-Fraternity Law. Except- ing Clemson there is not, to our knowledge, any state school in the United States at present w herein the students are denied the benefits of fraternities, or wherein at some time or other fraternities have ex- pressed themselves. There, of course, enters the question of the association with the military organiza- tion. This problem we m-i-i not fear because it has been solved for us. Schools embracing both R. O. T. C. units and fraternities, such as Georgia School of Technology, Mississippi A. and M., Auburn, and innumerable other institutions function successfully. In many of these schools barracks life is also prevalent, and their inconvenience onlj serves to aid the fraternal spirit. According to the War Depart- ment, their contribution to the preserving of Democracy is just as effective as is Clemson s. The present organizations, the only natural outlet for an instinctive desire for fraternal grouping, inst no less than do national fraternities. Money invested in a fraternal order while in college, is an investment, and an interest-bearing one, throughout one ' s business career. Elements in common are obtainable with men from even institution of learning. Investments in culture, ma in some cases be preferred to headlong plunges into theory, which without personality, is useless. An} improvement in the morale of a school is a step toward the advancement of its activities. There can be no doubt that our expenditure of time, exclusive of scholastic enterprises, depends entirely on this factor. In Science, in Military, in Artistic ability, we are on par with am school in the South. The reflection is one against the state at large, when proper and fitting social conditions are not avail- able. It makes 00 difference whether we are idealists, viewing these fraternities with an original con- ception and approving; or realists and capable of conceiving onlj the physical constructive or destructive elements and not of recognizing the economic value — the fact remains that the accepted standard of college manhood and womanhood is represented In members of a fraternal order and their worth is proven regardless of the viewpoint we adopt. 304 Taps — Soupey; — two calls — two books; the first in- spires beautiful memories — the second, foolish fancies.

Harold did the water color and pen sketches on the division s, the cartoons in Soupey and the mounting of the clubs. Sam wrote the opening sections, mounted the snap-shot section of Features and the Athletic section, in addition to helping a great deal in the genera] planning of the book. The description of the Campus was written by Jimmie Lawton, Clemson In Review b George Sackman, The Military History of Clemson by J. A. Wilson, and the Athletic write-ups by John 1 1 udgens. Air. Littlejohn assisted us greatly in our work and we appreciate his interest verj much. Frit Mercer as business manager, took over the responsibility of financing the book, which was quite a relief to the editor. He has done quite well by lowering the prices although the book is larger and much more elaborate. John Dantzler, who had the misfortune of bein the editor ' s ole huh. was imposed upon quite n tor stenographic service. This he did willingl) and without compensation. Sap Meet .e did excellent work as the Photographic Editor. This is a big job. but Sap handled it well. I would also like to express here the appreciation due our engravers and printers. Walt Dargan, an alumnus of Clemson. has everted ever) effort, made special concessions, and supervised the work per- sonally to insure the best possible photo engravings tor Taps. Mr. Clayton Webb and Karl Sanders ot Foote Davies Co. have taken the utmost pains to produce an excellent printing job and the qualitj ot work shows the proficiency of both concerns. Others have helped work up small details of the book — we thank them all. M VRION I ). W RI . Editor-in-Chii f.
