G. D. ROBISON, JR. Editor in Chief B. B. GULLETT Manager MRS. GEORGE McCLAIN MADAME Alma Mater On old Lebanon ' s western border, Reared against the sky, Proudly stands our Alma Mater As the years go by. Forward ever be her watchword. Conquer and prevail ; Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Cumberland, all hail ! Cherished by thy sons and daughters. Sweeter memories throng Around our hearts, our Alma Mater, As we sing this song. A History of Cumberland ! HE year 1826 is the true birth year of Cumberland, for it was then that the C J Cumberland Presbyterian Church established Cumberland College at Prince- njRR ton, Ky. The infant institution was founded upon promises, and we are told GoS that the first buildings and lands were purchased with money that the hopeful Trustees had borrowed. These first buildings were not at all like the large brick struc- tures that we know; they were log houses with clapboard roofs. The campus was a five-hundred-acre farm, containing many dormitories. In spite of the fact that every student worked two days a week on the school farm, the Trustees were soon perilously involved in financial troubles; so in 1842 the General Assembly voted to move Cumberland from Princeton, and invited oft ' ers from towns wishing the advantages of a college. Lebanon made the highest bid, and took the newly acquired institution into its care at once. A charter was obtained in 1843, and 1844 found Cumberland College well situated in a new building, with the more dig-nified name of Cumberland University. It is interesting to know that the first official publication was a twenty-one page rule book, issued in 1843. Such regulations as the following may seem strange to the mod- ern mind, but they are actually found in this first bulletin : Chapter VII, Section 7. The President, a professor, or a tutor shall have the au- thority to break open and enter any college chamber or study at all times, at his dis- cretion. Section 10. If any student shall ring the college bell, except by order of the Presi- dent, a professor, or a tutor, he shall be punished at the discretion of the Faculty. Chapter XIV, Section 8. Every student boarding within the town corporation or within three-quarters of a mile of the college building shall attend morning prayers in the College Chapel at sunrising. Peculiar rules! But they must have been popular, for the number of students grew steadily. The first year ' s work was launched with forty-five students; sixteen years later (1858) the enrollment had reached a total of four hundred and seventy. Other signs of progress had also shown themselves — an endowment fund, a larger corps of able professors, and that prestige which is more precious to a school than any amount of endowment. This wide growth in every direction demanded more departments, and they were added from time to time. The Law School was established first, in 1847, under the direction of the Hon. Abra- ham Caruthers, with seven students. An increase of students the next year caused the addition of two more professors, the Hon. Nathan Green and the Hon. B. L. Ridley, both illustrious in the legal history of the State. The entire list of law professors is filled with names of well-known and well-beloved men whose achievements have helped to give this department its hundreds of students and its enviable reputation. In 1855 the Theological School was launched, with the Rev. Richard Beard, D.D., at its head. This department was highly successful and a most worthy unit. Its discon- tinuance came in 1910 — not because of any lack of merit, but as an indirect result of the union between the Cumberland and the United Presbyterians. We can see that there was every indication of success to crown the eventful story of Cumberland ' s life. Then the Civil War came, sweeping away endowment, buildings, all the fruits of forty years ' toil. What could be done? The indomitable spirit ex- pressed in E. Cineribus Resurgo manifested itself with vigor, and work was resumed less than six months after the end of the war. To discuss the great men who have given Cumberland glory is a task that would de- mand more space than the present edition of the Phcenix can oflrer; so that is forbid- den us; but we can at least review the Presidents, as Cumberland has been so remark- ably fortunate in her selection of them. The Rev. Franceway Ranna Cossitt, D.D., was the first President of the University. He was a graduate of Middlebury College, in Vermont, and a writer of considerably ability, being the editor of the Banner of Peace and the biographer of Finis Ewing. X.VX It was during the administration of the Rev. T. C. Anderson, D.D., that Cumberland rose to great prominence in the State. Dr. Anderson had been a professor in this in- stitution in its days as Cumberland College and also after it had been moved to Leb- anon. He had served as Secretary and Treasurer of the Board of Missions of his church. The Rev. B. W. McDonnold, D.D., LL.D., was Cumberland ' s third President. He was a professor in, Bethel College, Professor of Pastoral Theology in Cumberland Univer- sity, and President of Bethel College. He will be remembered as the author of a history of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Judge Nathan Green, LL.D., was one of the grandest figures that ever graced Cum- berland and the only President to be known as the Chancellor. He held this position for thirty years, but was closely connected with the University for seventy-five years. ; . j. He was Dean and Senior Pr ofessor of the Law School, President of the Alumni Asso- i elation, a ruling elder of his church, and the author of The Tall Man of Winton and ' - of Sparks from a Backlog. David Earle Mitchell, the next President, was Cumberland ' s youngest President. He was graduated from the Southwestern State Normal School, of California, Pa., in 1893; was called to the principalship of the Roscoe (Pa.) High School in 1894; and began editorial work at Uniontown, Pa., in 189.5. Then he entered Cumberland, and upon graduation was elected President. Mr. Mitchell is gratefully remembered as the donor of the Mitchell Library and of several houses used for dormitories. Our own Dr. W. P. Bone, A.M., D.D., was Cumberland ' s next choice as President. He received his A.B. and A.M. degrees from Trinity University, the B.D. degree from Cumberland, and the D.D. degree from Trinity University. He has studied in Union Theological Seminary, the University of Chicago, and the University of Berlin. He has traveled extensively in England, Scotland, Belgium, Germany, and France. He has held pastoral charges in Texas, Alabama, and Tennessee, and for years was Professor of New Testament Greek and Interpretation in Cumberland ' s Theological Department. In 1909 he became President. Since his retirement, he has remained with us as our beloved Professor of Bible and Ethics. He is also the Alumni Secretary and the faith- ful editor of the Cumbeiiand Ahimmis. The sixth President was Dr. A. S. Coile, whose recent death has brought sorrow to many Lebanon friends. He was pastor of the local church for many years before be- coming President. At the time of his death. Dr. Coile was pastor of the McCausland Avenue Presbyterian Church, St. Louis, Mo. He had also been pastor of the Presby- terian Church of Maryville, Mo. He was highly effective as a speaker. Edward Powell Childs was the next President. He was a student in the University of Michigan, Denison University, Harvard Summer School, and the University of Wiscon- sin, receiving- the M.A. degree from this institution in 1917. As a teacher, Mr. Childs had been connected with the following schools: Fargo College, Denison University, Pueblo (Col.) High School, University of New Mexico, the Newark (Ohio) High School, and the University of Wisconsin. He has worked as President of the Normal and Collegi- j jgsi ate Institute, of Asheville, N. C, and as Field Superintendent of Mountain Schools un- I gj der the Presbyterian Church, U. S. A. ' ' ' = Our present President, Dr. John Royal Harris, was born in the adjoining county of Rutherford, and is an alumnus of Cumberland. He is most widely known as a re- former, but he has done pastoral work in Lewisburg, Tenn., and in Pittsburg, Pa. He .. l has been Secretary of the State Anti-Saloon League, Superintendent of the Dry Feder- ' ation of Pennsylvania, and Southern Secretary of the National Reform Association. From log calDins to brick buildings, from one department to six, from forty-five stu- dents to moi ' e than seven hundred — such is the honorable record of Cumberland Uni- versity.

Wabash. Ind.. in the fall of 1923. His feats and achievements on the 2:ridiron are well known to every Cumberland student and follower. Because of his remarkable ability at plungring the line, circling the ends, and direct- ing of aerial attacks, he was the mainstay of the Cumberland eleven during 1923 and 1924. Bulldog oppo- nents always kept a watchful eye on the hard-hitting Tiny. The officials of Cumberland realized the popularity and wonderful ability of Tiny as a player and football coach, and gave the Athletic Department a most dependable and versatile man by appointing him Director of Athletics. Succeeding Frank Bugs Wilde. Tiny ' formulated plans to install a progressive system in sports. As a football coach. Tiny displayed his ability and prowess ; for football is his fa- vorite game ; it is the basis of his fame and renown. With only two letter men returning from last year ' s squad, he went at his work with the determination to give Cumberland a winning team. By dint of hard, conscientious, untiring labor, he instilled the spirit of cooperation in the minds of his players, drilled them in the fundamentals of moleskin lore, and produced the most successful football team Cumberland has boasted since championship days of 1907. The record of the 1925 Red Bulldogs is familiar to every stu- dent. We know the difficulties, the various handicaps and misfortunes that confronted them at every turn. But, rising above these obstacles, the Knee eleven made history for Cumberland. F. A. -SHEENEY COCKRILL Assistant Coach Sheenie, with four years ' experience as ' varsity quarterback, is a very valuable asset to the Bulldog coaching staff. Having played two years with Director Knee, he is very familiar with the system and style of play employed by him. Because of his remarkable coolness, his ability as a field general, and the possession of that never-say-die spirit, Sheenie is a most competent coworker of Coach Knee. In addition to his duties as Assistant Football Coach, Cockrill supervised the training of the 1926 Co-Ed Basket-Bali Team. Further evidence of his ability is demonstrated by the fact that the gorls ' quintette came through the past season with flying colors. Probably their record does not equal that of former sea- sons, but it shows a maintenance of former standards. ROBERT IVAN MR. LINES Manager Much has been written concerning this sorrel-topped lad from the Land Beyond the River — Arkansas. But, with all the praise and commendation that have been heaped upon him, there is a lack of the proper appreciation for the wonderful work he has done for the Bulldog athletic teams. As a Manager, he is without a peer. Ever smiling, even in the face of defeat of his cohorts, he is the ideal Cumberland fol- lower. He is the ideal, but few attain to the realms of such an ideal. A hard, conscientious worker ; one who instills a fighting spirit in the hearts of the players ; a good winner and a good loser, is Mr. Lines. Letter Men J. J. DUDE WESSON, End (Captain-elect) Dude is merely his nickname : it does not characterize his physique or personal appearance. On the football field he is a raffing, charging, hard-hitting flankman of the highest type. A revamped halfback, Dude displayed his remarkable gridiron ability at the end position by wonderful exhibitions in getting down under punts, receiving passes, and breaking up the offense of the enemy. He and Captain Hicks are the best pair of ends to be found in Cumberland ' s football history. As a reward and appreciation of his moleskin qualities, the members of the team have chosen him as their leader for 1926. CARL BUSTER HICKS, Captain (End) Buster, playing his second year as a Bulldog, was a most essential cog in the success of his team. Possessed of the qualities of a true sportsman, a born fighter, and remai ' kable leadership, he instilled in his men the spirit of confidence and teamwork. As a flankman, he stands out in prominence above all other ends of secondary-college rank. WeU versed in the art of receiving aerial tosses, gifted with an uncanny ability for breaking up interference and getting under punts, he was a constant threat to enemy runners. FRED BIG BOY MARTIN, Tackle Martin made his initial appearance in a Bulldog uniform in the U. T. Doctor tilt. Coming to Cumber- land with the record of all-Western tackle at Tulsa University, Tulsa, Okla., Martin demonstrated his abil- ity to the joy and satisfaction of all Cumberland fans. His 240 pounds of brawn did not interfere with his speed and aggressiveness, because Martin was a constant thorn in the side of opposing linesmen. His playing throughout the season was of the highest type, and his presence in the Red Line made that branch all the more powerful. ALLISON FAT HUMPHRYS, Center One of the most consistent, valuable, and dependable linemen, Fat performed at the pivot position with the skill of a veteran. His passes were made with uncanny accuracy. His work on offense and de- fense was an essential part of the impenetrable line of the Red Bulldogs. Always when the enemy made a thrust at the Maroon forward wall, the 195 pounds of fighting brawn was found in the path of progress. There was no variation in his play throughout the entire season ; it was always characterized by clean sportsmanship and conscientious play. JACK SINGLETON, Quarterback Singleton is undoubtedly the most versatile field general Cumberland has ever had. With Jack, coolness under fire, swiftness, and broken-field running are personifications. It was Jack who directed the aerial attack of the Bulldogs in the last two games, wh n Cumberland completed thirty-nine passes for a total yardage of six hundred and total points of eighty-nine against none for opponents. A wizard on the offense, a bulwark of strength on defense, ever encouraging his men toward victory. Singleton proved him- self to be a football player of the highest caliber. BULL CHASTAIN, Tackle Bull Chastain possessed such remarkable physical qualities that most of his opponents were as pygmies in his hands. He was, without a doubt, the most dependable and the most versatile man in the Red Line. Ever on the alert, looking for and making holes through which to thrust his massive form, he constantly harassed and ravaged the ranks of opponents. A great offensive player, but a greater de- fensive man, is this Chastain. HOWARD FATS VADEN, Guard With his knowledge of football, his love of the game, and the ability to play it, Vaden was an ideal running mate for Humphries. Highly strung, eager to charge, and always alert, he was a constant threat to opposing players. Like all the members of the line, Vaden was an invaluable cog in its strength. Possessed of remarkable ability at breaking through his opponent ' s line and smearing play after play, made him feared by opposing teams. JIM SPARTA SIMS, Guard An ardent lover of clean athletics, exceptionally fond of a clean fight, Sims proved, beyond a doubt, that he is made of football stuff. Sparta could be depended upon at all times to give the best that was in him. When injected into the line-up, he raised, rather than lowered, the spirit and morale of the team. The team realized the sincerity and earnestness of his play, the force and power that were confined in his muscles, and fought all the harder. ALBERT SHEENEY COCKRILL, QuartekbaCK One of the hardest-working: men on the team is this Sheeney. And, in addition to his duties as Assist- ant Coach. Cockril! was always ready to perform his duty in the game. This was Sheeney ' s fourth year of football for old Cumberland, and he will be i?reatly missed by his teammates next year. No greater thing can be said of any man on the team than to say he always gave his best. RAYMOND TOBY GRANT. Guard Toby came to Cumberland fresh from the ranks of Arkansas College. Little Rock. At the outset he displayed wonderful lighting spirit and a peculiar knack of breaking up enemy plays that made him one of the most valued members of the famous Red Line. Possessed of a cheerful nature, he was a great stimulus and inspiration to the players during moments of dire need. When substituted in the line-up, he dispatched his duties with the skill and precision of a veteran. HOMER CUBBY KNEE, Fullback Cubby, in the role of fullback, was confronted with the problem of equaling or surpassing the record of his little brother, Tiny. Ardent fans proclaimed him one of the hardest-hitting backs to grace Cum- berland ' s fighting arena. His weight was a great asset to the team. Many are the times that he plunged the necessary yardage for first down. But for injuries received in the Carson-Newman tilt, Cubby would have gone through the season in a blaze of glory; and yet that misfortune does not detract from the brilliancy of his performance. GEORGE HOUSE PETERS, Tackle This was Peter ' s first year with Cumberland, but he performed as an old-timer. House came to Cum- berland from King College. Although greatly handicapped during the season by a bad knee, he never gave up. Many a time when he should really have been on the bench because of his knee, he would be on the field battling for the Maroon and White. House was, indeed, an asset to our team, and we all hope to see him back next year. BEN SMASHING BROOKS, Halfback Light, speedy, quick as a flash. Brooks thrilled the hearts of Cumberlanders with his spectacular per- formances on the gridiron. His uncanny ability at sidestepping, his twisting, squirming type of play, characterized Brooks as one of the most brilliant football players who has put cleated foot on Kirk Field in many years. WHEELER RED YEARGIN, Fullback Although he is a Freshman and supposed to be rather green, as are all Freshmen, Red violated all these rules on the gridiron. His opponents will testify to the ferocity of his charges, for Red possessed the driWng power of one inspired. His thrusts at the forward wall always resulted in a gain, Yeargin has three more years of moleskin chores before him, and it is a safe prediction that he will be one of the big guns of future seasons. BRACY JUDGE HAYNIE. Halfback Starting the season with an injured ankle, Judge was never in perfect physical condition. But be- cause of his knowledge of the game, his ability to impart this knowledge to the players, and all-round qualities as a gridiron performer. Haynie was started as often as possible, and in each instance he gave an impressive account of himself, A brilliant runner, deadly tackier, and adept at receiving passes, Judge was a great asset to Coach Knee ' s backfield. GUY PREACHER JORDON. Halfback This hard-hitting back from South Carolina was constantly a thorn in the sides of the opposing team, whether it be the first team that he battles or a visiting team. This was Guy ' s first year in Cumberland : and although he failed to make his letter this year, he will be one of Cumberland ' s strongest bids for a backfield position next fall. Football Review, 1925 CUMBERLAND, 3; OGDEN. 6 The Cumberland Bulldogs entered upon their 1925 gridiron campaign with Ogden College, of Bowling Green, Ky., as their opponents. Because of past records, the Maroon Warriors were slight favorites, and were doped to take the verdict by about two touchdowns. Although the Bulldogs outplayed the Ogdenites in every department of play, they were forced to accept the small end of a 6-to-3 count. Numerous pen- alties and costly fumbles constituted the downfall of Cumberland. After being backed to the shadows of Iheir goalposts by penalty after penalty, the Bulldogs attempted a kick, which was blocked and covered by an Ogdenite, who fell over the goal line for a touchdown. Cumberland ' s score came as a result of Singleton ' s placement kick in the initial period. The game was. indeed, an eye-opener for Coach Knee. He was in a position to recognize the faults of his machine, and proceeded to correct these errors. CUMBERLAND, 7; CHATTANOOGA. 12 Having corrected the flaws that were revealed in the initial game. Coach Knee sent his charges against the Moccasins, of Chattanooga University. Playing in the Mountain City, the Red and White Warriors put up a wonderful exhibition, and were defeated after one of the most bitterly contested struggles for victory. The team showed great improvement over their performance against Ogden. Perhaps it was the desire to break that two-year deadlock that had existed between these ancient rivals. Cubby Knee, being well acquainted with Tiny ' s past performances against the Moccasins, seemed to imitate Tiny in every respect, for Cubby literally tore the enemy line to shreds and played a bang-up defensive game. Singleton, at quarter, directed the team with great precision and coolness, featuring in Cumberland ' s offense with some brilliant end runs. Every man put his whole heart into the game and played it out for the sake of old Cumberland. CUMBERLAND. 14; G. P. L, 7 The Bulldogs came back to Kirk Field fired with the desire and determination to chalk up a victory be- fore making a second invasion of enemy territory. After a week of hard, grinding, gruelling practice and nightly skull sessions, the proteges of Coach Knee took their grudge out on the lads from Gallatin Private Institute. Starting the game with a driving attack that could not be denied victory, the Maroons com- pletely outplayed their opponents, registering a touchdown in the first quarter. Cubby Knee plunged over the final marker after brilliant runs by Brooks, Cockrill, and Singleton and passes to Hicks and Wesson. However, the visitors came back strong, conipleting two long passes for a touchdown, deadlock- ing the score at 7 all. Thus the first period terminated. In the second half the Bulldogs continued their aggressive tactics, and had their opponents on the retreat during the whole period. As the line opened gaping holes in the forward wall of the enemy, the Bulldog ball carriers would gallop along for frequent gains. In the closing minutes of the game, after brilliant advances by Knee, Cockrill, and Brooks, Pluto Singleton went off tackle for Cumberland ' s final score. CUMBERLAND, 17; U. T. DOCTORS. Having tasted the fruits of victory and finding the taste to be exceedingly pleasant, the Maroon and White Warriors invaded the camp of the U. T, Medicos. In that game football history was made, for the Bulldogs presented such a dazzling offense and such an impregnable defense that the Docs were com- pletely harassed, annihilated, and trampled under the feet of a victory-seeking eleven. As the line per- formed as a cooperative unit, opening gaping holes in the enemy line. Singleton, the two Knees, Cockrill. and Brooks would advance the oval for consistent gains. On the defense the line worked in the most com- mendable manner. But these short journeys with pigskin were not to spell victory for the Bulldogs. Sin- gleton executed a brilliant kick from placement at the 35-yard fine, and Captain Hicks snatched one of Singleton ' s tosses from the air, crossing the Doctors ' goal line for a touchdown. Singleton kicked goal for an extra point, the half ending with Cumberland leading by a 10-to-O score. The second session saw a repetition of the driving tactics of the Bulldogs, nor were the Doctors able to make such an impressive showing. In the closing minutes of the struggle. Wesson, stellar flankman. intercepted one of the Doctors ' passes and sped down the side lines 70 yards for a touchdown. Singleton kicked goal, and Cumberland had presented the Medicos with their third defeat in eight seasons and their first set-back on their home lot. CUMBERLAND. 19: BRYSON. 20 The Bulldogs returned from their invasion of Memphis amid deafening roars and yells of appreciative and loyal students. But Coach Knee was confronted with an overwhelming task — that of keeping down overconfidence in the Maroon camp. The following week Bryson College was encountered in Fayetteville. Starting the game with the aggressive type of play that characterized the U. T. Doctor game, the Bull- j , j dogs piled up a lead of 13 points on their opponents in the first half. During intermission between halves the Bulldogs seemed to have lost their spirit and fight, for they played listless ball during the final period. They were unable to hit their stride, and were forced to fall back in face of the advances of Bryson. Bry- son. playing inspired ball, turned the tables on the Bulldogs, changing certain defeat into victory by scor- ing three touchdowns in the final period, while Cumberland was able to register but once. The whole Bull- i;.,,| dog eleven played good bail during the first half. The line was especially outstanding in its performance It ' on the defense and offense. There were no individual stars; every man played his position to perfection. ji-lri ; But, as has been said, the indefinable thing occurred in the second period, and Cumberland allowed victory fu J to be torn from her grasp. IfM il ' CUMBERLAND, 6 ; CARSON-NEWMAN. 6 ;i I The Fighting Parsons, of Carson-Newman College, were next opponents of the Bulldogs. The Baptists j: ' :. ! invaded the Maroon and White encampment thoroughly confident of taking the measure of the Bulldogs ; 1 :- fi I they based their conclusions on their 40-to-O victory of 1924. But the surprise of their lives was waiting r -. : j for them, and — they surely did get it ; for Coach Knee ' s charges went into the fray with battle-axes ' gleaming, fired with the determination to avenge past defeat. Starting the game with one of the most bewildering attacks ever witnessed on Kirk Field, the Bulldogs forced the Parsons to give ground at every point. After brilliant exhibitions of broken-field running on the part of Sheeney Cockrill, Brooks, Knee, and Singleton, and remarkable passes from Singleton to Hicks and Wesson, the Bulldogs advanced the pigskin to the enemy goal line, where Cubby Knee plunged over for a touchdown. Singleton failed to kick goal. Carson-Newman ' s score came in the fourth quarter. After repeated attempts to advance the ball to a scoring position. Singleton attempted a place kick from his 35-yard line. The kick was blocked and recovered by a Parson back, who raced 50 yards for a touchdown. Thus, with the aid of Dame For- tune, the Fighting Parsons were able to collect a tie game from certain defeat. The play of the Cumber- land line was an outstanding feature of the contest. Time after time the forwards would break through and smear the plays of their opponents. CUMBERLAND. 14; MARYVILLE. 28 On Armistice Day the Bulldogs locked horns with the Maryville College gridsters in the Highland City. Suffering from lack of reserve strength, caused by the loss of Cubby Knee ' s services in the Carson- Newman game, the Maroons were forced to resort to defensive tactics in an attempt to hold the mountain- eers in check. Althoutrh Maryville used more than thirty men to collect the verdict, the Bulldogs reluc- tantly surrendered foot by foot. Overpowered by the onrush of fresh men, they fought valiantly, but vainly. The Red Line performed in great style, as did the back field : but their best was not good enough to gain victory. Probably the most outstanding feature of the game was Singleton ' s interception of a Maryville pass and a subsequent run of 60 yard- for a touchdown. This game greatly emphasized the value of reserve power. Taking everything into consideration, the Bulldogs, as one composite eleven, were as good as any team that Maryville could trot out. CUMBERLAND, 51 ; T. P. L. Opening the game against Tennessee Polytechnic Institute with the most brilliant, the most dazzling and bewildering a rial attack ever witnessed on Kirk Field, or in many other athletic fields, the Cumber- land Bulldogs marched to a glorious triumph over the Technites. Singleton, in charge of the shell pit. would hurl pass after pass to the waiting Hicks and Wesson, or to Cockrill and Hayne, who would gallop along, unchallenged, towartl the enemy goal and a touchdown. The Bulldogs, rejuvenated and completely altered from a running to a passing attack, exhibited one of the greatest offensive games of their season. When Tech was in possession of the ball, the Red Line was as impenetrable as a stone wall. There was no way in which to pierce that picturesque array of brawn, skill, aggressiveness, and courage. The first half ended with Cumberland in possession of a 24-to-O count. Starting the second period with the same driving attack, the Maroons stormed the ranks of Tech and left a devastated and mangled eleven in their wake. The count was increased to 51 to during the third quarter. Then in the final period Coach Knee rushed his scrubs into the battle. They held Tech well in check, playing them on an even basis. It is hard to pick individual stars : the entire team covered itself with glory, and is a living example of the abil ity and genius of Tiny Knee as a football mentor. CUMBERLAND. 38: BETHEL, 0. Thanksgiving Day was ushered in amidst overhanging clouds of the blackest hue. accompanied by fre- quent rains, which put the athletic field in a miserable condition. However, in the afternoon Old Jupiter Pluvius seemed to relent the harshness of his methods and allowed Sol to shine forth in all his splendor. Likewise the Red Bulldog of Cumberland University was resplendent, spectacular, sensational, and bril- liant in his glorious triumph over the Corporals of Bethel College. Remembering the heart-breaking tie game of the previous year, the cohorts of Coach Knee hammered at the Corporal line and circled the flanks unrelentingly. And their efforts were rewarded, greatly rewarded, for Cumberland gained her second great victory in two weeks. Similar to their performance in the T. P. I, game, the Bulldogs ran wild, plunging the line for long gains, circling the ends for still longer ones, and concluding with those deadly tosses into the ozone. There was no stopping the elusive Singleton, the fighting Cockrill. Hayne. Captain Hicks, and Wesson. In the line Martin and Chastain erected monuments to their ability by a masterful exhibition of 5kill and aggressiveness. Vaden and Sims, with Fat Humphries, formed a trio as impregnable as the famed walls of Troy. Thus Cumberland ended her most successful gridiron season since championship days of 1907. A record of four victories, four defeats, and one tie game is not to be scoffed at by any coach. Basket Ball 1925 26 Varsity Men JIM ELAM (Captain), Forward Race Horse Elam, with the remarkable record of four years of Prep, and two years of ' Varsity basket ball, was an invaluable man to the 1926 machine. Fast, consistent, and a born fighter, he proved to be a capable leader of Cumberland ' s cage men. An accurate shot and a good floor man, Jim was a very essential cog in the success of his team. GEORGE D. ROBISON, Center Robison, another brilliant performer from the famous Prep, team, displayed his cage ability with the greatest success. Fast and rangy, he played the pivot position with a veteran ' s skill. Very adept and expert as a cog in the Bulldog passing system, an ex- traordinary shot from close-up position, he contributed numerous goals which ranked him as the team ' s high scorer. ERNEST FELLBAUM, Guard Felly, as his teammates were wont to call him, came to Cumberland from the Uni- versity of Texas. At the outset he showed a world of stuff, and during the games of the past campaign he further demonstrated his competence and ability as a cage per- former. A true sportsman, an accurate shot, and a wonderful player is Fellbaum. BILL KELLY McCLAIN, Forward The past season was Bill ' s second year as a bearer of the Maroon and White banner. He is conceded to be one of the speediest men on the team, and is possessed of an uncanny ability for pocketing two-pointers. His admirable fighting spirit and wonderful team- work were potent factors in mounting the Bulldog standard on the pinnacle of victory. HARRY MACEY, Guard This was Macey ' s first year as a Bulldog basketeer. At back guard he withstood the onslaughts of opposing gunners with remarkable coolness, and performed his duties in a most adroit and commendable manner. Fast and full of fight, Macey always kept a watchful eye on enemy forwards, and frequently turned back deadly assaults launched by opponents. WHEELER YEARGIN, Guard Red, the Freshman who made such a splendid record on the football field, made a creditable showing on the hardwood floor. At back guard he exhibited a brand of ball that is characteristic of his moleskin performances. Powerful, rugged, and indomita- ble is this Yeargin. PAT CAMP, Forward Although small of statui ' e, Pat was one of the most capable substitutes on the squad. Because of his love of the game, his fighting spirit, and the desire to gain victory, he was a splendid type of a player. GEORGE PETERS, Guard At the first of the season Peters was prevented from participation because of injury to his knee. In the latter stages of the campaign he proved himself a most competent and dexterous guard. His performance in the Southern Y game was wonderful to behold. It was a spectacle within itself. He was all over the floor, breaking up passes, and putting a crimp in every attack of his opponents. JACK TORBETT, Guard Torbett, the fourth of a lot of little fellows, but by no means the smallest, always maintained a cool head, despite the frenzied pitch of the battle. A good man on the defense, exceedingly fond of a hard fight, Torbett was a most capable substitute. PAUL CELLA, Forward Cella is another little fellow, but he is possessed of speed, craftiness, and an ability to loop ' em in. A smooth worker and a fighting demon fittingly characterizes Cella. DAVE ROBISON, Guard Dave, another product of the Cumberland Preps., was one of the most rugged, the hardest-working, and one of the most dependable men on Coach Knee ' s squad. Because of his speed and resistless charges he was frequently the stumbling-block in the path of enemy would-be scoring attacks. Dave always gave his best, and his best is beyond question. STEWART SMITH, Forward Smith made his basket-ball debut as a substitute. A great many of the satellites are forced to contend with such obstacles. He is a smooth worker, fast and speedy for a man of his height and weight.

The weeks following were filled with pep and enthusiasm. On December 12 the season opened, as the Co-Eds clashed with the famous Y. W. C. A. quintette in the Y. W. C. A. gym. of Nashville. They were defeated there by the small score of 16 to 12. It seemed hard for the Cumberland five to locate the basket in this game, but the defensive play was excellent. After the holidays and a few days of practice, the girls left Lebanon on a long and hard road trip to play some of the best teams of Tennessee. They first played the Uni- versity of Tennessee, and then met the Maryville five on the following night. Both these games were had fought, but the East Tennesseans seemed to be a little better than Cumberland. On the next night the Co-Eds went up against one of the fastest girls ' teams of the State — Carson-Newman. The play was fast and furious, but the Baptists won. The Co-Eds fought as they had never done before, but it seemed that they were destined to lose. But the girls, with that bulldog determination, journeyed down to Cookeville, and on the following night met their ancient rival, T. P. I. Although tired and worn from the three previous games, the Cumberland five were determined to come home with at least one victory. It was in this game that Dame Fortune seemed to step in and take the place of her daughter. Miss Fortune, and lead the Co-Eds through one of their most successful years of basket-ball history. They took the T. P. I. game by a neat score, and returned home for a few days ' rest before their next game. The next game was on the home court with the Smyrna High-School team. The local five took this game by the one-sided score of 35 to 5. The Nashville Business College then came out to Lebanon with a strong determina- tion to beat the Cumberland five, but were disappointed. Next came the strong Gallatin High-School team, which were trimmed some fifteen points or more. Then once again the Y. W. C. A. team met Cumberland, only to be defeated by a good-sized score. Then came the last games of the season — Carson-Newman and T. P. I. These were, without doubt, the two best games of the year. The Cumberland team led the famous Carson-Newman team until the last five minutes of play, when their defense crumb ' ed, and the Carson-Newman five were again victorious. The T. P. I. game was a thiPer from beginning to end. When the end came, the score was a deadlock — 24 to 24. Then came the extra five minutes of play-off, and the T. P. I. aggregation caged two field goals to Cumberland ' s one. Thus it was that the season closed — six victoi ' ies for Cumberland University and seven for their opponents. With every member of the 1926 team back next year, the girls hope to have an even better team than this year. 78  = f-i c: e: M IV - FORWARD q| Cfi-.PT.

Clayton was a good sport and leader for the Prep. team. B. D. SHAPERO, Center Shapero was the most dependable man the Preps, had. Toward the latter part of the season he was forced to leave school, and from his loss the team suffered greatly. There is no doubt but that things would have gone differently had Shapero remained. RUBEN CRAWFORD, Forward Another dependable player was this Crawford. He was one of the best long-range shots on the team, and was a very good floor worker. Speedy never gave up the fight ; he always fought to the very last. LEROY GRAHAM, Guard This was Hoot ' s first year of basket ball, but he made for himself a record that will last in the minds of all Preps. It was the defensive work of Leroy that saved the Preps, on many occasions. He is a born fighter and a hard worker at all times. It was these traits that put him on the all- Wilson County team. GLENN WEBB, Guard Another beginner in the indoor sport came to light in the person of Webb. He was constantly a thorn in the sides of the opponents. He always had his eye on the ball, and rarely failed to take the ball from the backboard. HUGH EMISON, Forward Although small of stature, Hugh was always doing his best, and that is saying a whole lot. Hugh was also a good long shot, and many times he would loop counters through the basket to bring the Preps, out ahead. Hugh was always ready when they needed him the most. 79 2. 6 vs B !? - ' Basket Ba ll Rev iew, 1926 URING the past season Director Knee was confronted with one of the most difficult problems — that of molding a competent and fighting cage team from a practical entirety of green and foreign material. Only two letter men, Elam and McCiain, were returned from the 1925 campaign. However, promising players in Dave and Dan Robison were graduated from the Preparatory ranlcs. When Coach Knee sounded the official call for cage candidates, an enthusiastic and husky bunch of players responded, most illustrious of which were Peters, Fellbaum, Macey, Cella, Smith, Camp, Torbett, Yeargin, and others. With Elam and McClain as nuclei, the two Rob- isons as brilliant prospects. Coach Knee proceeded to lay the foundation of a ' fightin ' aggregation. The results of his untiring efforts may be observed and read in a systematic survey of the season ' s games. The Bulldogs played their first game in the Cumberland Gym., December 12, 1925, with the Burk Ter- rors, of Nashville, as their opponents. Against this collection of experienced and tried veterans the Ma- roons were no match. Partly because of inexperience of the players and partly because of a slight trace of stage fright, the Bulldogs were wholly outclassed in the first period. However, they came back in the final half with a wonderful exhibition of fighting spirit and teamwork, and managed to play the Terrors on an equal standing. The final score was 35 to 15. On Wednesday, December 17, Coach Knee led his cohorts against the Y. M. C. A. Ramblers, of Nashville. Being unaccustomed to the big floor and facing a veteran team, the Bulldogs were forced to the depths of defeat, trailing in a 40-to-12 score. Following the Rambler game, the Maroons were disbanded for the Christmas holidays. Upon the play- ers ' return in January, further practice was held in preparation for their next opponents. Union Univer- sity, which team was met and defeated by the count of 29 to 27. Bowling Green Business University, of Bowling Green, Ky., was the next foe to invade the lair of the Maroons. The two teams played on an equal basis during the first half, although Cumberland led at the midway point by a I4-to-12 score. In the final period, however, the Kentuckians unleashed a barrage of long shots which spelled defeat for the Bulldogs and concluded the session by winning 35 to 23. In an endeavor to break the constancy of the losing streak of his team. Coach Knee journeyed to Mur- freesboro to wreak vengeance on the Normalites of that city. With bitter memories of a crushing defeat of the past season vividly impressed on their minds, the Bulldogs exerted a fruitless effort to gain the ver- dict. Trailing at the half by two points, the Maroons came back in the final period to assume the lead, but for a few minutes only, because the Normalites uncorked a whirlwind offense that registered field goal after field goal, enabling them to vanquish the Bulldogs by a 40-to-23 score. The following night Cumberland encountered the Burk Terrors in a return engagement. Profiting by experience gained in past games, the Bulldogs hurled a bomb of fear into the Terror ranks. Opening the game with an aggressive onslaught, the Maroons demonstrated latent ability and brilliance. Despite the great work of the Bulldogs, the Burk Terrors contrived to snatch victory from ashes of certain defeat by means of a late rally. The performance of Dan Robison, who contributed eleven points of his team ' s total, was a prominent feature in the defeat of the Bulldogs. Score: 29 to 19. Urged on by the desire for the sweets of victory and embittered by continual losses, the Maroon cagers completely annihilated and overwhelmed Southern Y. M. C. A. College, of Nashville, by a 42-to-22 score. The first half was a nip and tuck affair, both teams exhibiting equal ability on the floor and in ringing the basket. Cumberland was trailing at the half by one point. But in the final period the Bulldogs swooped down on their opponents with a crushing offense that could not be denied victory. McClain, Elam, and Dan Robison passed, shot, and worked the floor in a highly commendable fashion, while Peters and Dave Robison, at guard positions, covered themselves with glory. Dan Robison, with nineteen points to his credit, was the outstanding offensive star of the affray. Tennessee Tech invaded Lebanon with hopes soaring high. They came primed to avenge that crushing defeat on the gridiron. At first it seemed that success would favor them, because they forced the Bulldogs to the limit. This game was probably the most closely contested struggle of the season, for the Maroons were only able to emerge victorious after a hard uphill battle, winning 28 to 26. After the Tech game, Cumberland invaded the mountain fastnesses of East Tennessee and Southern Vir- ginia. Laboring under the strain of a long journey, the Bulldogs were vanquished by Emory and Henry College, of Virginia, by a 40-to-26 score. McClain, with thirteen points, was the individual performer of the contest ; but his brilliance of play could not stem the tide that flooded the Bulldog machine. The following night Milligan College forced the Cumberlands to drink the bitter dregs of defeat, over- coming the valiant Maroon and White Warriors by the count of 38 to 24. Then the Bulldogs attacked the stronghold of the Tennessee Volunteers, only to be repelled — 29 to 19. Tennessee, it is claimed, played her best ball of the season against Cumberland. On the homeward journey the Bulldogs met and defeated Tennessee Tech, in Cookeville, 22 to 20. Immediately after their return from East Tennessee, the Red Bulldogs booked a return engagement with the Southern Y. M. C. A. College, and defeated them in Nashville by a 20-to-19 score. The second campaign on foreign floors was a two-game series in Bowling Green, Ky. Playing Ogden College in their first game, the Maroons succeeded in snatching victory from the melee after a stubborn uphill battle, winning out by a 32-to-30 score. The following night they fell before the long-range shooting of the Bowling Green Business University team by the overwhelming score of 36 to 11. Only two more games remained on the Cumberland schedule. Returning from Western Kentucky, the Bulldogs engaged in mortal combat with a collection of University All-Stars, whose cage destinies rested in the palm of one nationally known Colonel Ambrose Hubie Tucker, as Honorable Speedy Massey, our political K. P., was wont to term him. The All-Stars were rather uppish and rearin ' to get at the Bulldogs. However, before the battle was a few minutes old, all their hopes of victory went simmering away into the realms of etherealism, for the Maroon and White quintette literally harassed, annihilated, and trampled the AU-Star aggregation under a barrage of field goals and a bewildering passing attack, finally forcing them to bow in defeat by the overwhelming score of 40 to 15. The final game on the Maroon schedule was played with Ogden College. The Bulldogs piled up an im- pressive lead in the first canto, which defied the most valiant assaults of the Ogdenites during the final period, and emerged victorious by the count of 30 to 26. Thus a very successful season was terminated, official records revealing eight victories and nine defeats. SO lALL If.-.-, : iV.. J ..| SI m N4 I X 1 i Baseball 1926 I T was March the first when Coach Hicks issued the first call for bat- terymen, and to this call only a few likely candidates answered. There were many of mediocre appearance, but only a few who ap- peared able to stand the grind in the box. As far as receivers were con- cerned, there were none. It was in the development of a capable catcher that Coach Hicks encountered his biggest problem. The following week a call for all baseball players came, and was an- swered by some forty candidates, or would-be baseball players. At the outset it seemed that the team would be comparatively weak, both at bat- ting and in the field, but through the untiring efforts of Coach Buster Hicks the Bulldog squad progressed slowly, but steadily. It was about the latter part of the month that the prospects began to look a little bit brighter. Foust began hooking them around first base, and around the second sack there appeared a combination never seen on Kirk Field before in Haynie and Taylor. The position on the hot corner was bitterly contested between Page and Harrel. Under the tutoring of Coach Hicks, Brooks dev eloped into a catcher of considerable ability, but found close competition in Stacy Adams. Captain McClintock cinched the left-field position early in the contest, and the week before the first game found Cockrill performing in center field, with Harrel in right field. Among the strongest bids for the pitching staff were : Hicks, Bonner, Jor- don, Anderson, and Severan. The Bulldogs were far from ready to play their first game of the season, having contended with miserable weather for several weeks. Despite this fact, the Maroon nine took their first two games from Defiance by a good score. Next came the Lions ' Club, of Nashville, with a team made up almost wholly of ex-Vanderbilt stars, such as the versatile Slim Embry, Hightower, Tot McCollough, and others. This was the third game in favor of Cumberland. Thus started the ' 26 season. m :j nw-- -fr - ■ Via— B -jf- a --fl -p-} | { O, (3 ?

His fast ball is famous throughout ail the South, and his feat of pitching a perfect game against the hard- hitting King College nine in 1924 placed him in Cumberland ' s Hall of Fame. Hicks is a great pitcher, a great coach, and a great credit to Cumberland. DICK McCLINTOCK (Captain), Left Field and First Base In choosing McCIintock for the Captain of the 1926 Baseball Team, the squad picked a man who knows baseball from every angle, who loves the game with all his heart, and who wants to win, but takes his defeats as a real sport. Dick is one of the fanciest fielders that Cumberland has ever had. SHOW ME TAYLOR, Second Base Taylor, the second sacker from Missouri, is a ball player worthy of any A Class ball club. He is a heavy hitter, a fast base runner, a brilliant fielder, and a heads-up ball player in every respect. JUDGE HAYNIE, Shortstop Judge is the same brilliant player on the diamond as he was on the gridiron. In his unassuming way he plays the game in good style, hitting in the pinches and fielding everything in his territory. SHORTY HARREL, Third Base The baby of the squad, but the terror for the opposing pitchers; for if the ball is good, Shorty gets his hits : and if it is bad, he takes his walks ; but he always gets on base. Harrel is a hard-working third baseman. BEN BROOKS, Catcher Brooks has suffered with a bad finger all year but when he is catching, he puts everything he has into the game, and is the leader of the team in batting. COTTON FOUST, First Base Foust always gives his best around the initial sack, and contributes his share of the base hits and runs. ' DUDE WESSON, Outfielder Dude is a rangy outfielder, who tries for every ball and turns in many sensational catches. He is rather weak with the willow. SHEENEY COCKRILL, Outfielder Sheeney knows baseball, and he plays it. He is a smart base runner, a good judge of balls and strikes ; but, like the other Maroon and White outfielders, he is weak at bat. RED BONNER, Pitcher Red is the flaming sheik from Oklahoma, but he hurls the apple a la Walter Johnson. Bonner has a great assortment of slow balls, a sweeping curve, and a good fast one ; and pitching shut-outs is his favorite pastime. GUY JORDON, Pitcher Jordon is the Marberry of the team, for it is he who stops the rallies when one of the other pitchers gets in a hole. Guy is a curve-ball pitcher. BIG SLIM SEVERAN, Pitcher Big Slim hails from Oklahoma and looks quite like a pitcher. He has hurled three games in the bull pen. but will get plenty of opportunity to show his curves on the East Tennessee road trip. SCOTTY ANDERSON, Pitcher Scotty. although greatly handicapped during the first of the season by a sore arm. was one of the neatest working pitchers of the Bulldog staff. Scotty was the only left hander on the squad, and his play was characterized by remarkable coolness and precision. PINCH-HITTING NICELY, Utility Man Nicely was one of the most valuable men on the Bulldog squad. His regular position is third base, but he was more valuable to the Ciimberland nine as pinch hitter or in the field. CONTRACTOR WEST, Fielder It was West ' s ability to hit in a pinch that made him a place on the Hicks nine. Many times in the last stages of the game this boy from West Tennessee would go to bat with two men on base, and through his remarkable ability to hit on such occasions would pave the way to victory tor the Maroon and White. West was also a great fielder. 85 h-1 C W«|f ' I iiu ij I J jit p, i- N ' ( - su-f ' jJ ' -tLJi ■■ ™T TIME April 2 AprP 3 .

It was not firmly established, however, as one of the patent factors for re.igious influence in the University till 1881, since which time it has g.-own and kept pace with other colleges. All the students of the different departments are eligible for membership. The meetings are held every Thursday night in the Moreland Room of the Men ' s Dormitory. Many speakers of note have addressed the Association during the year just closing. The Y. M. C. A. has had delegates at practically all the conferences. Carl T. Stovall, the President, attended the Southern Student Conference at Blue Ridge; Myles Horton was present at the Tennessee All-Students ' Conference, of which he is a member, also the State Student Council. The Regional Bible-School Study Conference at Nashville was attended by Myles Horton, Robert Adams, Russell Tanner, Virgil Gaines, Charles Beech, and James Beard. A Bible-Study Group was organized, the leader of which was Myles Horton. Much interest was manifested, and out of this group others grew. Extensive plans are now being: formulated for next year ' s work. ' f; r r r r p 1 • m f= MO N| I ,v fifir.iL I II i ' :A ' Gir . W . O -A- 1926 Y. W. C. A.

Dr. Martin, if living to-day, would, without a doubt, be proud of this club which holds his name. 91 TENNESSEE mOJ COURT GLUB CUMBERLAND UfSIVERSITV l92 o Tennessee Moot Court Club OFFICERS Creasey _ President Russell fice President Holland Judge Parker Clerk MEA ' IBERS Greenlaw Page Crowley Brow. j Ledbetter West Oaks Tipton Faust Oaks Hamilton Bolen Storie McGill Pexnisi A club composed of the sons of the Volunteer State, the purpose of the club being to promote efficiency in Tennessee practice and procedure, as well as fellowship among the members. 92 THE CUMBERLAND BAND THE CUMBERLAND FOUR o iTTf Lambda Chi Alpha Founded at Boston University 1909 Colors: Purple, Green and Gold Flower: Violet Alpha Sigma Zeta Established at Cumberland April 17, 1917 FRATRES IN FACULTATE J.

Muncie Earl Bass Jim Bryan Gwinn Vaughn J Catron Ralph Jarrett %i I Lambda Chi Alpha HE Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity was founded at Boston Univer- sity, growing out of the Cosmopolitan Law Club, which had been organized in 1905. What is regarded as the first meeting of the fra- ternity was held November 2, 1909, which has been accepted by the frater- nity as its date of founding. The meeting, called, by whom it is not re- corded, to consider the reorganization of the club into a Greek-letter soci- ety, was attended by members of the club, by members of the Class of 1912 in the law school who were not members of the club, and by prospective students in the law school. When the club rejected the Greek-letter prop- osition, three conferees who had been members of the same high-school fraternity immediately started to build the foundation of the new frater- nity. While the fraternity had been founded with a view to national expansion, no attempt to establish new chapters was made until the spring of 1912, when chapters were founded at Massachusetts Agricultural College and the University of Pennsylvania. The latter chapter brought into the fra- ternity several men who immediately took a leading part in the national organization ' s affairs, virtually dictating its policies during the spring and summer of 1913, when the perfection of laws of the fraternity, its ritual, insignia, and similar essentials were accomplished. The growth of Lambda Chi Alpha has been both consistent and substan- tial, as an unbroken roll of seventy-one chapters, or Zetas, indicates. Alpha Sigma Zeta of Lambda Chi Alpha was organized at Cumberland University, April 17, 1917. From the beginning Alpha Sigma has enjoyed remarkable development and brilliant success. Only the loss of students who volunteered their services during the World War has marred the com- pleteness of her progress. What is perhaps the highest achievement was the winning of the National Fraternity Scholarship Trophy during the year 1923-1924. Present members of Alpha Sigma Zeta of Lambda Chi Alpha take an active part in all collegiate activities, having letter men in every major sport and representatives in various forensic activ-ities. J. J. Dude Wesson, Saltillo, Miss., is Captain-elect for Cumberland ' s 1926 Football Team, while Jack Singleton holds the distinctive honor of being selected as quarterback on the All-Lambda Chi Football Team for 1925.

Chapman, of Oklahoma, who was a for- mer leader and supervisor of the Ruff-Neks, a similar organization at the University of Oklahoma. The Toreadores had as their purpose and aim the increase and better- ment of student spirit, placing especial emphasis upon enthusiastic sup- port of Cumberland ' s Football Team and other major sports. Resplendent in a costume of flaming red and snowy white, they presented a spectacu- lar and picturesque scene upon their appearance at athletic events. A series of peppy yells, numerous stunts and tricks, both before games and between halves, constituted their work. Rain or shine, the Toreadores were always ready to support the Moroon and White Warriors of Cumber- land. .:■ ik, w 4 iH r-j rsi I ii ' i Intelligence Test With what department of the University do you play inter-school football?

' , The night was dark, though the stars shone bright; The ice lay on the ground, While out of the West a chilling blast Swept with a moaning sound. The stars shone bright; ' twas late at night; All quiet was Lebanon town; All were in bed, all fast asleep. Who dreamed of the Dorm burning down? But the sky o ' erhead grew angry red. And the flames did rise and grow; But still we slept and little recked That the Dorm was doomed to go. Then some one woke and smelled the smoke. And saw the ruddy glare; His shout rang out upon the night. And roused us here and there. The cry rang out: Fire, fire! Get out! And all the quiet was gone; For soon as the roaring flames were heard, The wish to sleep was done. Some of us thought it only a joke To scare us out of bed. Till we ran to the window and saw The sky so angry red. Each grabbed his trunk and crammed it full. And headed for the stair; Each of us gathered his scattered junk To get it out of there — Out into the dark ; ' twas bitter cold, And the wind was chill and keen — There to see the saddest sight That we had ever seen. The fire swept on with smoke and glare; The floors fell through with a smash ; The flames rose up like bloody hands; The walls fell out with a crash. Next morning there stood in the morning light. As we passed by to see. Only a fire-swept ruin Where the old Dorm used to be. J.

With the spirit of old C. U., Every student fell in line. Packed away his cherished garments Back beyond the safety sign; Then at once athwart the heavens Plashed the motto, clear and high, ' ' Resurgam — yes, truly, truly, E ceneribus is nigh. (Ov;r) Not a student failed his duty On the day the building burned, But to classroom each reverted, With a heart that never turned From a will of do and dare it, But to carry on each day. I shall rise, full well they heard it, And began to pave the way. Brick on brick to old foundation Firmly laid the men of toil; Sturdily they build the structure. Nor from task did they recoil. Resurgo became the watchword, E ceneribus to-day, As the men with honest labor Carry on as bricks they lay. Cherished by her sons and daughters, Proudly stands the new Annex, Safely laid on Christian courage. Which our spirit resurrects From the ashes, bricks, and debris On the sultry summer days, Till at last a splendid structure Stands sei ' enely midst the way. Time is healer of sad heartaches, ' Neath the dark, o ' erhanging clouds. But through these the silver lining Shines in radiance, dispels shrouds. Resurrexi — hear the message. As we radio the word — Grand, imposing; resurrexi E ceneribus is heard. G. Frank Burns. it ;,;i 122 S,cW ; V f ■ - ' F£ Suffs-o 0 .. .

We had defeated every school in the United States, France, Spain, England, etc. There was only one team left to play before we claimed the world champion- ship. This was the aggregation of Scandinavia. Coach Knee got in touch with them, and, due to good diplomacy, soon arranged to play the Scandi- navians. They agreed to pay the way of the whole school, with the excep- tion of Herbert Scaggs, fearing he might vamp the Queen. Everybody except Worth Crowley was on time at the N., C. St. L. depot, filling the special train as rapidly as possible. He was last seen kissing his many girl friends good-by. We were bound for New Orleans to catch the boat for Scandinavia. Everybody on the train had a good time reading magazines and counting telegraph poles. Several Law stu- dents started to rolling the bones, when Toby Grant shouted : Shoot a dollar! (Twenty-five were wounded in the mad rush.) Some were sleep- ing, and many eyes were rolling across the floor, when — crash ! The train struck a peanut shell and was wrecked. The conductor announced that we would be delayed six hours. Our boat left in six hours. By the great horn spoon, what should we do? We solved it. Only twenty-five miles; we would walk. Everybody piled out, and, with Dr. Faxon in the lead, we started out walking, amusing ourselves counting the cross-ties. We made New Orleans in forty-five minutes. On Monday morning at 11: 30 the student body boarded the good ship Damfino, while the band played Meanwhile. There was a football field, a gymnasium, four tennis courts, a basket-ball court, a half-mile track, and a golf course. Everybody was aboard the Damfino at 12 : 59, sharp. The string was pulled by Dr. Harris, and we caught air out of the harbor. We forgot to mention that the Hilltop Harmony Heavers had been hired to make the trip with us. The first day we danced all night that day. Once it was thought the ship was sinking. Waller immediately began trying to sell his watch to Tiny Knee, who was peddling peanuts to buy Hinkey a present. He sold it to him for a dime; but whe n the ship arighted itself. Waller cried so pitifully for his watch that Tiny returned it. We arrived at Glkoojiyuttobheg early in the morning of July 15, year of 62. We came off the ship, formed a line, and under the direction of Colonel Mitchell, with the band playing Meanwhile, we marched to the Hotel Trpsgy. The game was scheduled for the next day. The team seemed low in spirit that night, but after a hearty breakfast of bacon and milk toast the next morning, they gained the old home spirit and were ready and rearin ' to- go. The game was supposed to start at 2 : 30 P.M., but the arena started filling at 9 A.M. We were all seated, and started yelling at 2 o ' clock. When the Scandinavian yell leader started yelling, we shut up so their side could yell. Willie K. McClain and Cowhand Campbell went over to give them a few lessons in yelling, but all the members of the oppo- site sex were so charmed with their stay-combed hair that they sat mute. The boys arose and ordered them back to their own roost. Google Wook At Row Ze Zam, yell leader, shouted, and suddenly they started some ungodly song. We were so awe-struck that we did not open our mouths. Finally came the game. Cumberland started the same old line-up — Hicks, Martin, Grant, Humphreys, Vaden, Chastain, Wesson, Singleton, Brooks, Yeargin, and Knee. We kicked off, and Scandinavia returned the ball ten yards. Then we heard their signals: Tggle-De-Boobo-Ora-Duo-Unm-Tren-Milium. The ball was snapped, and a man ran around the right end into the wait- ing arms of Hicks, and, after a passionate embrace, finally swooned. The game was too exciting to give full details. It was as safe for a man to plunge the Cumberland line as it would be to enter Hades with a bomb in each pocket. Signals were called in rapid succession. The game got so hot and fast that the referee would line both teams up ten feet apart and then shout: Go to it! One time the referee was a wee bit slow in his movements, and a moment later he was carried off the field on a stretcher, his arms folded, and a rule book on his chest. The game ended 298 to in our favor. The Scandinavians immediately showed good sportsmanship by running us out of town. We boarded our ship and started for New York. The news of our victory preceded us by wireless, and President Coolidge, Dawes, and Kellogg, who had been forced to stay at home to pass a condi- tion, were all there to greet us. The city of New York declared a two- weeks ' holiday and gave us daily banquets and dinners. Each and every member of the school was given a gold medal by the United States Gov- ernment. Having grown tired of New York, we left for Washington ; and spend- ing a day and night with the President, we then met all the members of the Cabinet and told them we wanted a bill passed providing funds for a mam- moth ballroom and a pension for all students. We received telegrams from every State in the Union asking us to accept a million-dollar endowment from them ; we also were asked for permission to carve a bas-relief of the football team on Stone Mountain Memorial. We began to grow anxious to get back home. We had heard of the gigantic preparations Tennessee was making for our homecoming. We are sorry we awoke before we could enjoy it. 126 Firelight Dreams Have you ever sat in your old arm-chair On a winter evening drear, While on the hearth a glowing heap Of logs gave warmth and cheer, While the snow, in mounds of crystal white, Piled every window sill. And heard the wail of the rising wind As it swept with a blast so chill? Secure and warm, you sit alone, As the logs do blaze and burn, And gaze into the heart of the heap As the coals to dead ash turn. What is it there in the glowing coals That holds you fast like a spell? Is it only a passing whim? Alas, no one knows full well! Then is the hour of brilliant dreams, Of the building of castles in Spain ; Alas, how often they fade and are lost. To never be found again ! The wind wails loud, now again so low. It lulls the spirit to rest; As it swells so loud and sinks so low, ' Tis the music which I love best. When you sit alone and think sometimes Of life and its meaning to you. Do you dream sweet dreams of the future Which perhaps may never come true? Or it is memories that hold you there Of some one you ' ve loved of yore? Does a face seem to smile from the embers Just as it did before? Do you hear the echo of a loving laugh. Now silent for many years? Then that is why the crimson light Reflects in that falling tear. The hour of dreams is ended. Though the wind still wails and sighs; You arouse and look about you As the last bright ember dies. O, I love this hour of loneliness. Fraught with the memories it brings, Accompanied by the wintery wind, And the sad song which it sings ! J. Karl Albright. Shell Shockj HE student ' s expenses are determined largely by the amount of money he is able to work out of the family. No statement can be formu- lated regarding his personal needs. A student should have seventy- five or eighty dollars a month for week-ends, and, if it can be af- forded, a little extra for luxuries, such as room and board. Glee Club championship contests have been quite the fad, and are now spreading to the correspondence schools. A score of warblers from Cum- berland will indulge in an exchange of notes with the International Corre- spondence School. Weddings are serious affairs. Old maids are serious, too. Old maids cry at weddings because it makes them think of the past, present, and the future with a shrug, a sigh, and sadness of heart. They think of what has been, what is, and what could have been, but isn ' t. The City College, of New York, has enrolled a student from Gjraf, Slo- vika. They now have students from every country in the world, except the United States. A recent straw vote taken at the Tennessee College on the subject of the women s college having the most beautiful girls resulted in an overwhelm- ing majority in favor of Tennessee College.

NASHVILLE - TENNESSEE UEnvoi When in Life ' s far-distant evening we shall turn to look our last On the pleasant scenes that Memory ne ' er has yielded to the past, Then, as now, our hearts will cherish, in our lifetime ' s afterglow, Happy days among the cedars — college days of long ago. We shall hearken in the stillness, where we wait till day be o ' er, And the unforgotten music, long unheard, will sound once more, Just as when we raised our voices, with the friends who loved us so. In the song of Alma Mater — college songs of long ago. All the friendly fellow faces that we knew so well and long Will smile on us through the distance, while we hear that evensong ; And our lips will frame, unbidden, words that mark our feelings flow: ' Fare forever well, companions, college friends of long ago. Fairer faces, too, will haunt us when the darkness gathers near. Now, their smiles make heaven for us. Then, as now, shall they be dear. Blessings on your gentle memory ! God ' s sweet violets ever blow ' Round your feet, where ' er you wander, college loves of long ago ! Then, while memory, thought, and feelings melt away into the deep. By the wind that rocks the cedars we shall all be lulled to sleep. We shall sleep, perchance to dream, and in that dreaming, we shall know. We shall live once more the happy college life of long ago. ;; ' W ' ' %: ' i ' . ' :: :: Kit ' -f,
