WILLIAM ALLEN BUCKOWY Editor in Chief CHARLES WILSON WALLER Business Manager PHOENIX Published bij The Students of Cumberland Uniuersity 1930 Fore worcd No greater treasure has man on earth than memories, and no sweeter memories exist for one than those centered round his or her college days; and so it has been the aim and purpose of the staff to catch and to instill through the general theme of this Phcenix the spirits and at- mospheres of life at the college in order that these days may be recalled to mind at will by only a glance within its pages. If we fail in realizing our ambitions, we hope that the reader will for- give and realize the gigantic scope of such a task; but if we succeed, we shall feel that our ef- forts have not been in vain. William A. Buckowy, Editor. THE UNIVERSITY CLASSES ATHLETICS ORGANIZATIONS FEATURES In grateful recognition of his long and unselfish service to Cumberland University, and of his earnest effort to preserve its finest traditions ; in acknowl- edgment of the debt the stu- dents owe him for understanding and helpfulness ; in appreciation of the broad culture, the sense of honor, and the high ideals he has impressed on all, the 1930 Phcenix is dedicated to James Oscar Baird PHOENIX _ 4 mm MM James Oscar Baird ¥W : . V V 7 -J ' - O To -CiuimberlaiK -« — In front of our Alma Mater Stand ready now, bugler, and blow — Give notes of encouragement — daily — For the students who are weary and slow For those who are dreaming of castles Blow it easy from morning to night ; The day ' s treated some of them badly — Oh, blow them at least a good-night. A CHALLENGE Then blow for the fathers and mothers — Who lieth at nighttime awake. Thinking oft of youth ' s aspirations — (Blow soft for the old time ' s sake). And the old, old love of their childhood Is their young, young love again. And the years sweep them back into sunlight On the music of your glad refrain. A man ' s but a man in the daytime, With studying and playing for gain; Then at night when lying there sleeping He lives it all over in vain. When the shadows creep over the campus, And the stars are twinkling o ' erhead. Then dream of the Cumberland spirit. Show that life has come from the dead. But, arise in office and classroom — Day dawneth — night cometh — then rest ; For dreams are dearer to laborers Who do their duty best. Arise — fling far the banner and colors, Ye students of Cumberland — a host ; And — God, the stars, and the angels Can see thee guarding thy post. So blow for him gently and easy — For him who is battling along, Who faces the sunshiny morning With the happiest kind of a song; At the first streak of dawn appearing Arouse for the task of the day — Encourage his heart for the labor Which is his on any highway. Then front of the battle-.scarred gridiron, Tile dianiond, the basket ball gym. Three times — blow loudly and clearly — .Sliow presence of courage and vim ; How bravely they fought for colors Of Cumberland — the school of renown, And fought to the finish of battle With never a grimace nor frown. Then near each teacher ' s snug dwelling Each note blow steady and clear. For they are the shapers of soul-life To all who are eager to hear ; Blow loudly the note of enchantment Lead on their thoughts of the day To fashion youth ' s highest ambitions To live on heaven ' s highway. Hark, sir, and the day ' s work is over, The restless is resting deep. And God has ready nothing better For a man that ' s tired — than sleep. The things that he did are recorded. Past longing — and passing regret. But they who would, maybe somewhere There ' s a chance of doing them yet. Arise — dream dreams — and slow to the finish,- Give echoes a chance to ring ; With God and the stars and the angels The night is an awful thing. Awake, ye heralds of knowledge. Before you is the Pathway Uivtrod, Some day heaven issues the orders To make your report to God. {Beloved late Professor G. Frank Burns at Cumberland University) CAMPUS VIEW A splendor falls on Cumberland halls, a scene of beauty, a joy forever. GIRLS ' DORMITORY ' Pi ' ees, along the sun-peppered streets, welcome thy coming, glorious Spring! And in thy stately halls, labor the minds of Southern maids. - ■ DORMITORY Companionship gives man the porver to develop all that lies ivithin him ' CAMPUS VIEW Spreading maples cast their shadows on this oft-trodden path to the halls of knoivledge. Administration President Ernest L, Stockton Rising from the student ranks to Professor, Dean, and finally to the highest position his Alma Mater could offer him, the Presidency of the Old Cumberland ' ' he loves so well, Ernest L. Stockton has won the admiration, confidence, and love of every student and friend of this historic institution. In the brief span that has passed since the beginning of his term of office in 1927, he has more than lived up to the expectations and requirements of those who advocated his selection. President Stockton ' s love for Old Cumberland is more than sentiment, his plans are more than air-castles, and his expectations are more than empty hopes. Truly imbibed with the Bulldog Spirit that- has made Cumberland University great, his energies, his dreams, and his every thought are for his Alma Mater. He has spent most of the past year in a careful yet forceful drive in New York City, in an attempt to obtain means for the realization of his noble ideals. His long experience in various capacities in the University has equipped him thoroughly to understand the ' problems and difficulties that face it. His ability in building up constructive plans to meet the need, has alreach ' been proved. He has raised the scholastic standards of the institution to a plane worthy of recognition throughout the educa- tional world. The success that is anticipated in his present drive should really bring Old Cumberland to her own. Truly the beginning of his term of office marked a new era of progress in the history of his Alma Mater. His high character, his intellectual attainments, his magnetic personality, and his noble ideals have combined to win a respect and admiration that is somewhat mingled with awe: and his personal touch and his individual interest in each student, faculty member, and friend, have softened this respect into love. A scholar, a friend, a gentleman, and a real man — he holds a sacred spot in the heart of every student who has learned to know him. 16 PHOENIX __ «« mmmmmm mm . i ..Mi . • 1 1 p ' i ' PRESIDENT ERNEST L.

We arrived in Cumberland In the fall of ' 29 ; Since we came on the campus. The school has been running fine ! All of the C. U. activities We supported with all we had, C. U. without the Freshman class Her condition would liave been sad ! Our Freshman boys ' basket ball team ! Why, it ' s been the talk of the South! Our boys really played ball Bevond the shadow of a doubt ! Sixty-five new faces, All donned with tiny green hats. And scorned by upper classmen By I wish you would look at that! We soon snapped out of this baby stage And organized into a bond ; Why, w-ho could quench the peg of such group Assembled from all over the land? We had a uniform organization With a president of A-1 brand — Little Jay Phillip Cleveland, In Cumberland a leading man I J. Phillip, a D. K. P. man — Has led us thru thick and thin — A scholar, a sportsman — Loyal to C. U. to the end ! On the football field, yes — And on the girls ' basket ball team Our class placed the boys and girls That have won for C. U. esteem. We gave picture shows, stunt nites and parties And helped C. U. in that way, Not only did we help lier financially But showed her where the talent lay ! In the scholastic life Our record was unsurpassed ; Of all the other classes in school Ours was the leading class ! You see what we ' ve done for C. U., By just being here this year, Our minds, talents, and pep Should never be forgotten here ! Not for a minute did we hesitate To get right down to work. From the first day of school to the last. None of our scholastic work did we shirk ! Don ' t think we ' re egotistical, These are the facts of the case. We ' ve shown you w ' e ' ve laid a record That none can ever erase ! All we will say for Cumberland Is that we think she is better than our class ; And I guess you see that says Tliat we know our Alma Mater is unsurpassed ! W QjE. 56 S9 PHOENIX .4ii!ik MONTE McDANIEL Director ok Athletics Coach, as he is commonly known to his boys, is completing- his fourth year as Cumberland ' s mentor. Faiced with a goodly number of letter men back, and a good squad of new material on the field, things looked briglit for a banner year on the gridiron. But the boys were never able to get going, and the season was disastrous. Coach fought with them to the end, however, and was always there with his conscientious, untiring ability to do what he thought best for the school and team. Football is not Coach ' s major sport, for he has considerable more experience on the diamond. He has managed several successful teams in Florida, and we are looking forward to another great season on the baseball field. WILLIE WOOD COOK Captain The Red Line would not be the same without Red in there at tackle, plunging, blocking, tackling, and pushing a gap througli every opposing line. Red was handicapped by a bad knee, but in the hard games he was in there to the finisti, and never complained. Such a fighting spirit was one of Red ' s greatest attributes. His strong character and pleasing personality marked him as one of Cumberland ' s greatest captains. PAUL WOOTEN Manager As a manager, Paul had no peer in all of Cumberland ' s list of midget managers. They all have been small in stature, but large in ability and those things which go to make up a keen business manager. Paul has been with us in all his school work, and in this last year he had a chance to give forth some of that spirit — and how he did! 7 57 PHOENIX RORERT TAYLOR, Quarterback With Bunk, coolness under fire, swiftness, and broken-field runninff are personifications. A wizard on the offense, a bulwark of strength on defense, f er encouraging his men toward victory, Taylor proved himself to be a football player of the highest caliber. EMERY CLARK. Fullback Altliough lie is a Freshman and supposed to be rather green, Emery showed his football training and ability, and proved to be one of the greatest running backs ever in Cumberland. He is small, but his drives and broken-field runs show his ability. He was the chief ground-gainer for the Bulldogs. FOUNT ROBISON. End Fount played his third year as a Bulldog, and was a most essential cog in tlie success of his team. Possessed of the qualities of a true sportsman, a born lighterj and versatility in getting down on punts, receiving passes, and smearing enemy plays, Fount was a constant threat. WILLIAM BAIRD. End Bill was shifted from Quarterback to End, and showed that his football ability ajid knowledge of the game would come out, wherever the Bulldogs needed him most. His work at end was of the highest type, and Bill ' s spirit and co-operation have always been a decided factor in the Bulldog success. O ' V ST 58 PHOENIX - tm WILLIAM ROBINSON. Halfback liill was prevented from sliowing his wares while a Fresliman on account of a shoulder injury, but came to the backfield this year and proved his ability. )nt of the fastest men on the field, a most accurate passer, and the spriit of a leader branded Bill as va.luable to the Bulldog: squad for two years long-er. R. S. McARTHUR, Center Bob played his second year in the pivot position of the Bulldog- line, and always grave his ' best. His passes were made with uncanny accuracy. There was no variation in his play, always cha ' j-acterized by clean sportsmansliip and con- scientious play. GLENN WEBB, Guard One of the most stubborn fighters ever to wear the Maroon jersey, Glenn proved a big obstacle in every enemy ' s path. A fighting- spirit, in addition to his brawn, are Glenn ' s most noteworthy attributes. CHARLES FLOYD, Halfback Doc developed into the role of a punter on several occasions this year, and performed nobly. He increased his ability in running, blocking and passing, and retained the personality which inspired his teammates. CHARLES SWEATT, End Swede came over from Nashville, and in his Freshman year, ran side by side with the other Freshmen who bore the brunt of the P uUdog attack. A dog for punishment, and a knack for hard tackling, makes us appreciate Swede for three more years. f C ' m ' . K%J 1i. wRv -r XT 59 59 ' Hii PHOENIX JOHN lilVINS, End Jack shared his position this year, but was always in there fighting- when the chance came. ' He was a terror to enemy end plays, and death when a pass came his way. A great offensive player, but a greater defensive man, this Jack. RICHARD KLINE, Center Brain and brawn from Pennsylva,nia fought with the Red Line in the pivot position. Even though liandicapped by an injured hand during most of the sea- son, Dick ' s passes were true, his defense steady, and his insight into enemy plays won a name for him. ROBERT DONNELL. Halfback A Freshman, but heavy and fast, Robert was always good for yardage through the line. A plunger of no mean ability, a clean gentleman on the field, and a natural fighter. Always on his toes to back up the line, and his conscientious work brought results. CLARK SINCLAIR. Guard Another Freshman to uphold the traditions of the Red Line. Clark was high strung, eager to charge, and always alert, a constant threat to enemy line plays. Clark will be back, and will undoubtedly gain greater recognition in the future. SAM LUMPKIN, Tackle Along with Captain Cook, Father Lumpkin took care of all enemy off- tackle plays. His playing throughout the entire season was of the highest type, and his presence in the Red Line made that branch all the more powerful. Big, and perhaps a bit awkward, but never to be run over — was this Sam. h , y K V y {- .,.,.

We can be thankful for a fighting spirit, and a squad of Bulldogs that always gave the best that was in them. It would be unwise, and untruthful to say that the season was successful — at least from a percentage standpoint, for the Bulldogs only won two games out of nine, and as percentage, that is next to what the little boy shot at. Nevertheless, a review of the season will be made for record, and for the sake of memories of a campaign that was marked with injuries, substitutions, lack of training and bigger aiid better teams. The first game was lost to Howard College, of Birmingham, Alabama, by a score of 41 to 0. This was the first night encounter for mainy of the boys, — on the gridiron — and it proved that you can ov can ' t do more than gaze at the moon. So much for that. On October 5, our old rivals from Murfreesboro came over with a lighter and weaker team, and took home the long end of a 6-0 count. Revenge was sweet, no doubt, for they could not have forgotten the 13-0 defeat they tasted last year at the hainds of the Bulldogs on their home field. Neither will the Bulldogs forget the defeat this year, and this fact will be in the charge and attack of the Red Line next fall. The third game brought another rival from up in the mountains, in the attack of the Yellow Eagles from Tennessee Tech. The first quarter of this game was played as that Red Line should play. The ball was never in Bulldog territory, and one touchdown was registered by the Bulldogs, out of four good chances. But alas! The beginning of the second quairter found an inspired eleven of Eagles, which clawed the Bull- dogs throughout the remaining part of the game until they looked like terriers. Loose playing, lack of spirit, and lack of either defense or offense after the first quarter, allowed the Eagles to march through to a 25-7 decision. Spectacular runs, passes and a, victorious attack completely wrecked the Bulldogs. Sewanee was slated to give the Cumberland boys a drubbing, and no one was disappointed — except probably those who gave 50 points. The score was 33-6. As in other games, the Bulldogs spent their strength and attack at the first, and scored the first marker, but the same old story tells the remainder of the game. The. iifth game was another of those moonlight affairs over in Memphis, and again a defeat of last year was avenged. This time the West Tennessee Teachers emerged victors in a close and hard-fought game •■ by one touchdown, 12-6. Little Emery Clark came into his own in this game, and as a result caught the eye of mentors of larger schools. Then at last, a game was won. The Bethel Corporals from McKenzie, Tennessee, came up to Kirk Field and gave the Bulldogs a taste of victory to the tune of 19-6. Even in victory the Bulldogs were fighting stubbornly against a weaker team, and but for a let-down, the score would have been twice as large. Never- theless, it was a win, and there was great rejoicing, for the ' team was almost on the verge of experiencing one of those Believe It or Not seasons. And when the strong Murray Sta te eleven from Kentucky fell before the Bulldog attack on the following Saturday, it was almost a Believe It or Not experience. The score in this instance was 26-14. Real teamwork and true fighting spirit characterized the most impressive win of the season in this game. Clark was the outstanding luminary, sharing honors with Floyd, Robinson, Stanart, Green, and, of course, the Red Line. The Alabama State Normal, from somewhere in said state, came up the next Saturday, and after getting off to a good start, the Bulldogs finally gave up and left the field with the small end of a 13-7 score. It was in this game, played in a sea of mud, that just before dark, Emery Clark made that memorable 40-yard run around end, slipping, jumping, and ploughing his way across the last white marker to put the Bulldogs in a tie, and a moment later a boot from Stanart gave the Bulldogs a one-point margin. But alas again! After the kick-off, the coach from down in Alabama took it into his head that something should be done about it, persuaded the referee that the touchdown should not be allowed on account of hurdling. After much discussion, pro and con, mostly pro, the ball was recalled two plays and the Bulldogs were penalized 15 yards. It was a break that happens once in a lifetime, but it cost the Cumberland eleven a victory, and seemingly to all the fans, most unjust. Nevertheless, the season closed on Thanksgiving, with a decisive 33-9 defeat at the hands of the Mill- saps College team at Jackson, Mississippi. Conclusion: SAD. Consolation: Better Luck Next Season. Score: Cumberland 113, Opponents 160. So much for that. ' . A ' ' V7 G£ 62 59 PHOENIX . COACH MONTE McDANIEL It is a difficult job to coach football, basket ball and baseball in one coUeg-e year of nine months, and do justice to them all, but tliis is just what Coach is equal to. With untiring efforts he took over the basket bajl squad at the close of the football season, and with three letter men back, he formed a hard-fig hting. courageous five to represent Cumberland on the liardwood floor. Always able to instill into his men spirit, courage, ability and clean fighting, Coach is well liked and fought for by each of his teams. CAPTAIN WILLIAM ROBINSON Bill went right from football togs to a forward ' berth on the Maroon five, and, as last year, w as one of the flashiest little forwards on the floor. He was shifted to center in some contests, but always displayed his ability and his aim for the basket was unerring. MANAGER CHARLES WALLER Charlie arranged all the games, but after the holidays, when he dived into the sea of matrimony, his assistant took most of the care of the team. Charlie brought some of the best teams of the neighboring states to the Cumberland gym, and gave the fans a good schedule. His Cumberland spirit and enthusiasm all through his four years here mark him as one among the Maroon ' s truly successful managers. O v 63 -g - o !§ __ PHOENIX WILLIAM ROBINSON, Forward Bill was one of the three letter men returning, and again placed on the team at a forward and center berth. He plays the floor like a veteran, and his knack for hitting the basket from the foul line is seldom equaled. He will be with the team two more years, lucky for us. FOUNT ROBISON. Center Fount is also playing his second year on the team, and as he plays more, his ability grows. An ideal pivot man, a clean fighter, and a goal shot of no mean ability, make him a most valuable cog in the Maroon machine. He has one more year. ROBERT WOODY, Guard After being out of the game for half the season on account of non-eligibility, Woody came back in time to be an essential in the trouncing •of the Burk Terrors 44-30. He was one of the mainstays of tlie team last year, and his return strengthened the team greatly this year. More success to you, Bob. HARRY GREEN, Guard Harry came from Castle Heights where he starred on the championship team of that school last year. He formed part of a defense that was hard to penetrate, and his passing and dribbling worked the ball to the Maroon basket for the counters. His shooting from distance was also a feature. ae 5SD 64 PHOENIX Sfc THOMAS MARTIN, Forward This Martin formed half of the most sensational pair of forwards ever to wear Maroon jerseys. He, with his twin brother, James, worked to- gether like a real pair. The opposing team could never tell them apart, and often would chase one and think it was the other. JAMES MARTIN, Forward And this is the other half of the twin combination. Even we here could hardly tell them apart. Both had a keen eye for the basket, and their passing was excellent. These two boys were star for- wards on the championship Castle Heights team. They will be back with us, and just watch them ! HOWARD SWEATT, Guard Swede came over from a star year on the Central High team in Nashville. This blonde guard was fast, and his passing and pivoting were of the highest caliber. He has several years with us, and will al- ways be a valuable man. His long-distance shooting featured many contests. RICHARD McCUTCHEON, Forward This flashy little lawyer was in there fight- ing when he was needed. His floor work was e.vcellent. and his eye for the basket marked him as a valuable man. What Dick lacked in stature he made up for in clever floor work and ability to hit the basket. n M 7 ST 65 S9 PHOENIX The Schedmle aed Results Cumberland 25 Cumberland 27 Cumberland 28 Cumberland 33 Cumberland 37 Cumberland IS Cumberland 10 Cumberland 17 Cumberland 30 Cumberland 44 Cumberland 28 Cumberland 24 Cumberland 32 Cumberland 48 Cumberland 29 Cumberland 30 Cumberland 30 Cumberland 23 Cumberland 29 Burk Terrors 41 Dallas Y 28 Bemis Y 42 Murray State Teacb.ers 45 Bethel College 51 Dallas Y .23 Huntsville S ' . . 24 Huntsville Y 22 M.

ARCHER Coach Avcher thought he was able to cany the law course and also train the Maroonettes, and his idea was riglit. He trained them to a small, but figliting bunch of lassies, and they were always flashy, fast, and fighting to the last whistle. He had the confidence of his team, and tliey all fought for him. Although hampered by injuries and iion-eligibles. Archer did himself credit witli the splendid record made. CAPTAIN ELIZABETH FREE.MAX Center, mainstay, hardest worker, piyot, and high scorer explains the position held by our admirable captain. Lib was easily the outstanding player on the team this year, and covered the entire floor without faltering, every minute during the entire season. . ' V captain like this is greatly to be desired, and Lib will always be re- membered for her work this year. MAXAi;ER KATHERINE HANXOCK Katherine has never played basket ball, but has always confined herself to diligent work in tlie classroom. Hence lier appointment as manager gave her a chance to display her brilliance, and she was more than equal to it. Not only as a basket ball manager, but it will be hard to lose Kat from her place in the hearts of those who see her and think, There goes a real Cumberland follower. V1 ce 7 V 67 SD JftjA|? PHOENIX ELSIE MAI ALEXANDER, Guard Red has played everywhere on the team in her years here, and has always covered herself with glory. She is one of the hardest fighting play- ers ever to wear the Maroon, and her de- fensive work is almost impregnable. Her eye is always on the ball, and her follow- ing up seldom gives the opponents a second shot at the basket. Rl ' TlI EREE.MAN, For v. ri) Ruth played her second year on the team, but not in such a blaze of glory as last. She was al- ways figliting, though, and her willingness to pass and work for the team stamped her as one to be valued. Her long-distance shooting thrills an audience wherever the Maroon- ettes play. ELIZABETH FREE- MAN, Center Whether playing five or si.x on a side, Lib was always the • mainstay in the Maroonette attack. She cov- ered the floor like a carpet, and her passing and shooting were of the highest type. She was high scorer for the year, and accounted for more points, many times, than the entire opposing team. It is well that she will be back. KATHERINE VAUGHAN, FoRW. RD This little girl can really use a hard-luck story as an alibi. Knee injuries, a l roken toe, finger, and illness kept Kay from being at her best, but even then she was always in the thick of the fight. One of the fastest players on the floor, and an offensive player of great ability. It is her second year, and we are glad she will return. 68 S9 PHOENIX MILDRED BRYANT, Guard Mildred was placed on the leam for (lie third year, and was one oi! the hardest fighters on the squad. Polly is one of the cleanest sports and most consistent players to wear the Maroon jersey. Mildred has .spirit, ability, determination, and basket ball brains, and will be a valuable asset for next year. JULIA HUMPHREYS. Guard By far the smallest member of the team in .size, but not in fighting ability. Julia hawked her for- ward like a cat, and often when she was larger and a goal seemed inevitable, Julia was all over the opponent. Julia received her share of the hard knocks, but always came back with great- er fight and deter- mination. VIRGINIA GOLLADAY, Forward Playing her first year on the fir«t fivp ' iv- ginia displayed ability and spirit and will be use- ful in her remaining years. Her shooting was very much on the style of a boy, and lier floor work was good. Noncha- lant and easy-going but always on the ball, and an accurate passer. HELEN LIGON, Guard Another first year player who covered herself with admiration from the fans. Helen got around like a quail, but she was always there and fighting for the ball. Nimble as a cat and sticking like glue, Helen was always between her opponent and the basket.

There will be no more intercollegiate baseball with Cumberland as a representative. At least for a while. This announcement occasioned much regret in the hearts of the students and backers of the Great American Pastime. But the committee deemed it wise to discontinue this major sport in favor of other spring recreations, and as the committee says, so shall it be. Since the University was organized, and baseball became known as a game, Cumberland baseball teams have not failed to make a good record. Baseball was one of the two earlier sports, football sharing the early honors. After two years of intercollegiate baseball, this sport was abandoned in 1896 on account of the severe rules handed down by the faculty. Allison B. Humphreys, ' 94 A.B., ' 95 LL.B., was coach during the few years in this period. Baseball was reorganized in the spring of 1897, and interest continued to grow. No notable achievements are on record until the team of 1902 lost only two games, both to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When Cumberland won the S.I. A. A. title in football in 1903, winning eleven games and tying one, the authorities desired a better baseball club, and secured the services of Wilkie Clark, Southern League player. Baseball climbed to the top in 1908, when Cumberland w on the Southern College champion- ship, without the loss of a single game. No teams have made this record since that time, though several have come near it. The great team of 1924, coached by the memorable Byrd Doug- las and Minis Tyner, established the most enviable record of recent times, with victories over larger schools in the South and Middle West. The names of such coaches as Humphreys. Clark, Tyner, Douglas, and MacDaniel will go down in Cumberland annals as among those who led the sport to success. Many players have become known far and wide by their stellar work at Cumberland and scattered over the states in many leagues are players who claim Cumberland as their Alma Mater.

Guard Pwps VBo 7 V 72 PHOENIX M mmMk Freshmen Basket Ball Seasoe When the chilling winds of winter called a halt to gridiron battles, all eyes were turned in the direction of the gym. It was here that Coach Lumpkin was putting all those boys who had responded to the call through the preliminary drills of basket ball technique. A large squad of promising material worked hard in order to gain a berth on the team and be among those to carry the burden of the battles for the Cumberland Rats. The first game of the season was with the Vanderbilt Freshmen in their gym. Although it was a hard- fought game, the frosh had not yet found their stride and lost by a score of 23-18. But Lady Luck still turned against them in the second game, for the Frosh were unable to drop enough baskets to overcome their opponents, Castle Fleights, who defeated them by a score of 17-15. It seemed as though the Cumberland Rats couldn ' t get going, because along came the Van- derbilt Rats, and again defeated them 27-14. But in the next game the Frosh started out with a rally that the Tennessee Industrial School was not able to overcome. Although it was close, the Pups had their first taste of victory. Riding on the crest of good fortune, the Pups encountered the David Lipscomb College, only to be turned back by a score of 28-27. After leading at the half with a 16-point lead, and a tie resulting at the end of the game, a five-minute period was played. It was disheartening to see one of the opponents drop a foul in the basket, thus setting the Frosh back by one point. Now old Lady Luck returned, and the Frosh hit their stride, when they avenged the defeat of David Lipscomb College by a score of 27-23. It was a sweet victory for the Rats, for now they were hitting the winning column. Having the last game fresh in their minds, they handed the Swift Company Independents, of Nashville, a sound drubbing to a tune of 24-8. And then the Tennessee Industrial School bowed to them by a score of 24-20. After playing foreign talent, the Rats decided to take the Wilson County Independents, who were praised with an unblemished record. These boys also fell before the heavy onslaught of the Freshmen, trailing by a score of 34-20. The M. T. S. T. C, Reserves decided toi try the Rats, and after the final whistle was blown the Frosh emerged victorious with a 40-33 lead. It seemed as if the Pups could not be defeated, for they again turned the Wilson County In- dependents back with a 39-13 score. And then the Rats came to the supreme test of the year when they were matched up with the C. U. Bulldogs. A fast game was played between the two teams and when the final whistle was blown, the Freshmen had another scalp under their belts, the score being 28-22. The Scliedijle and Resnalts C. U.

PHOENIX nl 1 It I Temiis Climb School had scarcely begun in the fall, when a large group of tennis enthusiasts began their annual trek to the campus tennis courts. Great interest was manifested throughout the fall on this campus, only to be hailed by the chilly November winds and rains. However, interest did not lag during the winter and plans were formulated for a successful tennis season in the spring. Several important meetings were held in which these plans were worked out carefully. A local tournament is being planned and it is e.xpected that a large group of students will enter. A team will be chosen representing Cumberland ' s best players, who will be matclied with tennis teams of other leading institutions in this section of the state, including Vanderbilt. It is also very probable that a fraternity tournament will be held this spring. Although many students have taken an interest in tennis this year, the writer wishes to mention a few in particular who have kept liigh the spirit and interest of the club during the winter months and are highly instrumental for its ultimate success. Among these are May- belle Lowery, Billy Strong, Reid Hill. Bill Little. David Barry, I. P. Cleveland, Peggy Har- rison. Charles Waller, Professor Williams, and Dean Voung. Tennis is a great game, requiring much skill and deception to be played at its best, yet all who wish to learn will be heartily welcomed at all times and gladly accepted in the ranks of one of Cumberland ' s most active outdoor sports. o e -7 V 74 , PHOENIX _ Ji||lk LAMBDA CHI ALPHA HOME j J ' if - K . f , - S9 Mi m PHOENIX V13 y JiC SD -7 ST 76 PHOENIX - Lambda Chi Alpha Founded at ISostoii I ' liiversity 1909 Colors: Purple, Green, and Gold flo Violul ALPHA SIGMA ZETA Establed at Cumberland L niversity April 17, 1917 FRATRES IN FACULTATE Kali ' U T.

It was founded six years before old Cumberland College was trans- ferred to Lebanon under the name of Cumberland University. Five charier members were in- cluded in the society when ii was established in 183 7 in the early days of Cumberland at Princeton. Kentucky. The youthful organization became a permanent part of this institution in 1848, when a new charter was obtained from the General Assembly of Tennessee, six years after Its removal to Lebanon. Judge Robert L. Caruthers was chosen to deliver the first address and Judge Nathan Green. Sr., was elected hrst honorary menioer. As the Amasagassean Society approaches the century mark, it shows no sign of advancing old age ; in fact, its birthday last fall, when ninety-two candles betokened the long, enviable record of the organization as a part of Cumberland University, was one of the liveliest and most favorable ever enjoyed in its history. During the past year the society has been very prominent in literary activities, producing some of the outstanding debaters and orators of the school. Eighteen thousand students have passed directly or indirectly under its influence during the past ninety-two years, and now nos -palma manet, the palm awaits us, is more truly than ever before the motto of the organization, The palm of victory is awarded for worth-while service.

P ' or the year 1929-30 the official roll includes the names of forty-five stalwart young men and one charming young lady who call the Lone Star State their home. It is only natural that students from Texas should be banded together, and this they pro- ceeded to do immediately after the opening of the P ' all Semester by organizing the TEXAS CLUB. Regular meetings were held the first and third Fridays of every month throughout the year, at which times splendid programs were presented, consisting of interesting and important facts peculiar to the law of Texas. The meetings were always well attended and conducted with never-flagging enthusiasm, thus making the TEXAS CLUB one of the most active organizations in the University. In the common cause of preparing for the practice of law in Texas these students joined hands, and by virtue of the comradely association and brotherly helpfulness, benefits have been derived and friendships have been moulded that will live on throughout the years. The TEXAS CLUB reflects credit upon the great old Law- School of Cumberland University; it manifests that spirit of loyalty of which Texas is so justly proud, and upon the goodly number who com- pose it are showered the blessings of their own conscientious endeavors and the benediction of their native state.

During the current year of 1927-28 the Association gave two plays, and with the proceeds constructed bleachers on Kirk Field to seat the Cumberland rooters. The Association handles all the advertising and publicity for games, conditions the field for home games and aids in every way possible. The purpose of the organization is to foster and encourage school spirit. Although as yet in its in- fancy the Athletic Association plans to enlarge and play a bigger part in the athletic life of the University in the future. v ' 7 110 PHOENIX - m Y. 9 VJ 9 X , The Y.M.C.A. was organized at Cumberland in 1856. The Association has for its aim: Bringing young men to Christ and sharing svith them the joys of Christian fellowship. Like other Y.M.C.A. organizations, this one. with the aid of Prof. Ralph Donnel, has at- tempted a new project, that is, the Empl oyment Bureau. Carleton LeRoy was given charge of this work. The aim of the Bureau is to give employment to those s ' .udents in school that other- wise would not be permitted to attend college. It is expected that this agency will have accom- plished something during the year by offering positions to boys for the coming year. OFFICERS William P.

Study well your Greek Phonetics, But compete in school athletics, Kven though you think you ' d never make a team; Try your hand at publications; If you fail, don ' t lose your patience; You are victor though you only learn to dream. Be musician or debator; Do your best for Alma Mater; Find your place .somewhere and fill in the strife. Get that breath of an eager stand, Get the spirit of old Cumberland, And, mv friend, vou ' ll set the most from college life. vsy 7 114 , :l%.

Prior to the cere- mony, Miss Essex sang in a charming contralto voice, It ' s a Fast, Fast World. Then Mr. Hudson sang a tenor solo, The Little Ford Rambled Right Along. To the strains of the wedding march, Strut. Miss Lizzie, the bridal party entered. The ushers, Messrs. Buick and Reo, entered first and crossed themselves before the improvised altar. Then Miss Cole entered with Mr. Cadil- lac. The little flower girls were Misses Chevrolet and Maxwell. The bride entered with her maid of honor. Miss Paige, and was met at the altar by the groom. The beautiful piston-ring ceremony was used by the Reverend Willys-Knight. The bride was lovely in her traveling suit of midnight black, with accessories to match. Her only ornament was a valuable Diamond tire, the gift of the groom. After the ceremony, Mr. and .Mrs. Ford gave an informal reception. Mesdames Lincoln and Dodge presided at the punch-bowl where delicious Polarine was served. The hap- py married pair left almost im- mediately in their Marmon to go Overland to National Park. Lpon the departure of the bridal couple, Mr. Fisk an- nounced that it was time to retire. NEW BOOKS RECEIVED BY COLLEGE LIBRARY Miss Martha Harris, the blustering boss of the Liberry, is being complimented on her securing a valuable set of Horatio Alger ' s works. The series is almost complete, and includes Paul. the Boot- black. The set has been placed in the vault for safe keeping. An autographed copy of the Cumberland AUttjinus has also been secured, and has been in- sured for $5,000 against fire or theft. Who Killed Cock Kobin, by Mr. lio Arrow, is also a valuable accession, which the liberrian prizes highly. BEARS AND BULLS HAVE HEAVY DAY ON WALL ' S FEET Severe Fluctuations Characterize Trend of Stocks — Book Room 760 There have been several drops and increases in the lo- cal market during the past two weeks. These fluctuations have been due to several inci- dents. In view of the fact that mid- term examinations have just been completed. Flunks have had a tremendous increase. On account of the purchase of books for the beginning of the second term, Book Room, 1st pfd., has made a great in- crease, which almost reached the figure at the opening of school. No quotations can be ob- tained on Diploma, 1930 issue, since the faculty will not sub- mit a balance sheet for the un- derwriters to study their pros- pects.
