' S ' BiiV i. - ROBERT WARREN FAULK CoviXGTOX, Tex -. Graduate of Bethel College, ' 07; entered Cum- berland, September, ' 07: President Amasagas- sean, ' 10; Treasurer and Captain, ' 09; Censor and Vice President, ' 08; Delegate to Rochester Convention, ' 10; Secretary and Treasurer Y, M. C. A„ ' 10; Orator Senior Class, ' 11; A.B., ' 11. He outgrew his home town, so they sent him to Cumberland. He is the pride of his class, because of his loftiness, big-heartedness, and de- votion to his friends. He has done a prodigious amount of work along all lines of knowledge. His strongest point is argumentation, in which he always defeats his opponent because of his ability to debate on any subject whatever with- out knowing anything about it. He floors the most experienced by invariably ending his argument just where he began. J. LOUIE SHATZ Kentox, Te.n ' X. Graduate of Kenton High School, ' 07; entered Cumberland, September, ' 07; President Amasa- gassean, ' 10; Vice President, ' 09; Censor, ' 09; Manager Basket Ball, ' 11; Historian Senior Class, ' 11; A.B., ' 11. He says that he did preparatory work in Ken- ton High School, but no one of the Faculty has been able to find any evidence of previous prep- aration along any line. During his four years in college he has devoted the most of the time that he has not been occupied with the pressing duties of college ' life to his studies. But there is more to Ikey than one might think from this brief sketch, and we expect to hear great things from him in the commercial world. ERNEST MITCHELL BRYANT Beli.buckle, Tenn. Graduate of Brandon Training School, ' 03; entered Cumberland, September, ' 07; Historian for Freshman Class, ' 07; Pastor Bellbuckle Presbyterian Church, ' 07- ' l] ; Editor in Chief of Phoenix, ' 11; Secretary Senior Class, ' 11; A.B., ' 11. Bryant has devoted himself to knowledge and preachin.g, and left out all foolishness. He adds to the class spirit the much-needed conservative element. He is an authority on almost any sub- ject (if you give him time to consult his wife). His only troubles have been to procure hats large enough for the increasing size of his head and to make 70 in Physics exams.
