' i. }t ' :: - ' ' - ON ARCHIVES W r, 0 6 l- - _, JR., o ' AVADER5° ' ' ' oeA i HBO °uv ° ' ' ' T 1 9 4 WORD O In Egyptian mythology the Phoe- nix was a sacred bird fabled as coming every five hundred years out of Arabia to Heliopolis, where it burned itself on the altar and rose again from its ashes young and beautiful. Thus it became a symbol of resurrection and im- mortality. During the Civil War Cumberland was burned to the ground and, of course, later rebuilt. When the first annual came out in 1885, it was named The Phoenix be- cause Cumberland seemed to possess the qualities of resurrec- tion and immortality that were characteristic of the Phoenix bird. May this Phoenix, which has risen from the ashes of the burnt 1939- 40 school year, be a pictorial reminder of the Cumberland mythology which you have helped to create.

Her colors grace the air. Truth and virtue are her heritage, And priceless is her worth; We sing applause and cheer the cause Of the finest school on earth. Chorus Let ' s lend a helping hand To dear old Cumberland; And to her warriors bold Let ' s be true blue. Undaunted at her side We must protect her pride. Her teachings golden old We must pursue; Through victory and strife She ' s led a noble life: And her traditions grand Shall ever stand For the maroon and white. We ' ll always work, and fight for dear old Cumberland. Let ' s lend a hand!

PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE To the Graduating Class of 1940: At the Ninety-seventh Commencement you will receive your baccalaureate degrees and diplomas imprinted with the seal of Alma Mater as a symbol of her faith in your present achievements and your potentialities for worthy service to society. Your years in the historic halls of Cumberland have been filled with rare friendship, en- riching experience and intensive search for truth, goodness and beauty. This quest for the highest and most enduring values is only begun but you have discovered the Glory of the Imperfect. The unattainable idealism of life will lure you on to larger horizons. May what you aspired to be but are not comfort and inspire you to more heroic adventure. You face a chaotic and swiftly changing world. Such conditions, though not so acute and alarming as today, have always confronted idealistic and courageous youth who are discontented with WHAT IS because they dream of WHAT OUGHT TO BE. This is the perennial process of social progress. So to you the flaming torch we throw, be yours to hold it high. All who labor to perpetuate the ideals and traditions of Alma Mater give you assurances of unfaltering faith in your future happiness, success and valiant service to humanity.

Cumberland has not had a golf team in years and years. In fact, it was never learned whether the last team was caught in some sand trap or lost in a rough for it just passed silently away. But this spring a new grip was taken on golf clubs and golfing is here to stay. This year ' s team was formed more as ground-work for next year ' s team; a nucleus around which to mold a sport that in a few years of building-up should prove to be one of the most popular on the campus. A golf club was formed with Bill Simpson as president. Its object was to combine all interested in mashie wielding into a group to champion the return of golf to the Cumberland sports department and to build toward the future. Professor Louis Adams, as coach of the team, arranged a schedule with some of the top golf teams of the South. Sewanee, University of Mississippi, University of Georgia, and Western Kentucky Teachers are among those teams on the Cumber- land docket.

Upon the latter ' s dismissal Vaughan was elevated to head coach, this being just three years after his gridiron career had ended. As a player Coach Vaughan left behind him a colorful record. In 1928 he was all- state guard at Castle Heights Military Academy. Before coming to Cumberland he attended New Mexico Military Institute where he was all-Southwestern. At Cumberland he was all-conference guard of the Smoky Mountain Con- ference in 1935. Due to the fact that he was new at the game of head coach, Vaughan has not rung up a very impressive record for the past two seasons. But now that he has found his best plays and players around which to build next year ' s team, it is expected that he will cut loose with some real scoring punch.

Peebles secured his post at the same time as Coach Vaughan and it was his initial chance in a coaching status. He was in charge of the backfield during his two-year stay here, having resigned after the 1939 schedule had been completed. Manager Bill Steele was in charge of all equipment and turned in an admirable job in this capacity. Charles Feeney, freshman from New Jersey, served as trainer for the squad. [57] FOOTBALL BULLDOGLAND In an ancient annual of Cumberland University, to be exact, 1895, a prediction was made that, There is coming a sunnier day for athletics in Cumberland University. Whoever wrote this evidently did not mean 1939, for this was one of the worst seasons in the history of the football team. Although the team won very few games and lost by scores that were entirely too large, it was not the fault of the men or the coach. No, it was not their fault! It was because they were not strong enough to face such compe- tition a s was handed them this year. Considering the teams encountered, without exception as strong as any team ever tackled, our team did very good. This is not meant to be an opology, neither is it a com- pliment — it is to be facts. Not one of the men who fought to uphold the tradition of Cumberland this year would like to have a bouquet thrown at them, nor would they appre- ciate a shower of rotten tomatoes, such as was often handed them during the past fall. They gave the best they had in an effort to win, never failing to play the game in the most sportsmanlike manner as possible. Optimism was at the boiling point at the first of the year, especially during the pre-school training. It was generally conceded that the ' 39 varsity would be one of the best in Cumberland ' s long and enviable history. But alas! as Robert Burns is won t to say, The best-laid schemes o ' mice an ' men gang oft agley, and the C. U. football team was no exception. The first game was a pushover — for the other team — and six of the best Cumberland men bit the dust under the onrush of The Thundering Herd. But even this failed to dampen the spirits of the Bulldogs, nor of their most ardent backers — the student body. No, their spirits were not dampened — they were thoroughly soaked. They were in fact as wet at dry gin. This was especially true of the student body. And it did not stop here for the team quickly suffered two more serious defeats. No one felt these defeats more than did Coach Vaughan. This was Coach Ned ' s second year and much had been expected of him. Coach Ned, who had been assistant coach under Mcllwain, was appointed head coach when Mcllwain left Cumberland. But the blame for the disastrous season cannot be placed on one man ' s shoulders — the competition was too much. Three Cumberland men were recognized by the Smoky Mountain Conference. They were: Jimmy Johnson, who CAPTAIN SUMMERS End CLAUDE KERR Tackle LYMAN INGRAM Utility JIMMY JOHNSON Guard ALT.-CAPT. BEESLEY End RESUME was unanimous choice for All-Conference in the guard slot; Charlie Beesley, who was named on the second All- Conference team; and Dave Wagster, who received honor- able mention. Cumberland ended the ' 39 season with the King College game on November 24 with a record of seven losses and two wins. One hundred and sixty-one points were scored by the opposition, compared with thirty-two for Cumber- land ' s share. By a curious coincidence one hundred and sixty-one points were scored by the opposition in 1937. A brief game-by-game summary follows: BUFFALOES TRAMPLE BULLDOGS In the initial game of the season against Milligan, C. LJ. received a touch of real football, or better, football in the rough. Before the game had proceeded very far six of Cumberland ' s crack players were on the bench suffering from injuries. Consequently Coach Vaughan was forced to play inexperienced men. During the first half both teams see-sawed back and forth with no results. But in the second half the Milligan Buffaloes broke loose and won twelve to nothing. TEACHERS TEACH BULLDOGS TRICKS With a badly crippled team Coach Vaughan journeyed to Richmond, Kentucky, to accept the second defeat of the season. The only time in the game that the East Kentucky State Teachers were challenged was in the third quarter. Eastern was clipping on a punt and Cumberland took the ball on the Teachers ' 27. A pass. White to Lloyd, gained nine and then White made a first on Eastern ' s 12, but their goal line was impregnable. The game ended twenty to nothing in favor of Eastern. BULLDOGS GROWL IN VAIN Luck of the sort none of us like was responsible for the defeat at the hands of East Tennessee State Teachers Col- lege. While the game was still in its infancy a Cumber- land fumble was recovered by the Teachers, resulting in a touchdown. In the fourth quarter Lloyd broke loose and ran twenty-eight yards. This was C. U. ' s first score of the year. But luck waited until the closing minutes of play to strike when Lloyd was downed behind his own paystripe, giving the game to Teachers eight to six.

Tackle BULLDOGS FLOAT THROUGH THE AIR With many of their number on the aihng hst, the Bulldogs traveled to Greenville and licked Tusculum twelve to seven. This, the first win of the season, was probably due to the aerial attack C. LJ. threw at the Tusculum team. Out of twenty-four tries, eighteen passes were completed — a feat that is, or comes close to being — a college record. So swift and sure was this aerial circus accomplished by tossers Miles Christian and Little Dave Wagster and catchers Captain Summers and Toughy Chappell that Tus- culum was from the beginning in the dark. TEACHERS BITTEN BAD Cumberland was well compensated for losing her other games by winning this one. For several weeks a verbal war of uncompli- mentary innuendos had been waging between the students of both schools via their school papers, until rivalry reached the tensive point. Came the game: Soon after the opening kickoif Carter re- covered a fumble for the Bulldogs and Vaughn passed a quick one to Wagster far down the field. Weaving in and out and run- ning as only Wagster can, he evaded all Teachers and crossed the six-point marker. LJntil the last minutes of the game play shifted back and forth with C. U. adding another score. Then S. T. C. flashed across for their only touchdown, ending the game 14 to 6. BULLDOGS PLAY DEAD With victory fresh on their trail the Vaughanmen hit the high- way for Arkadelphia, Arkansas, where they suffered their worst defeat of the season. The Ouichita team was by far the superior and most of the battle was played in C. U. territory. The Ouichita gridders added Cumberland ' s scalp to their winning streak by a t60 1 ir ROBERT COPELAND Guard WILLIE HACKETT Center JIM WHITE . Back MILES CHRISTIAN . Back GORDON JONES . Tackle thirty-two to nothing score. Three C. U. men were injured: Jimmy Vaughn, Charhe Beesley, and Jim Whizzer White. EAGLES CLAW BULLDOGS The screaming Golden Eagles of Carson-Newman swooped down on the helpless Bulldogs and downed them under an avalanche of touch- downs. During the first quarter the Vaughanmen held their own, but in the second the Holtboys showed the stuff Eagles are made of, tearing the Bulldogs to pieces. C. U. never threatened and the game ended thirty-one to nothing. SCOTTIES WIN CANINE BATTLE The wee wee Scotties off the mountain put up one of the stiffest fights experienced by the Bulldogs of any school in their class. In the first quarter C. U. did most of the playing, but failed to gain pay dirt. During the second a pass was intercepted which resulted in Maryville ' s first touchdown. Then with an aerial attack reminiscent of such as is used by Morrison of Vanderbilt, Maryville was able to shoot over two more. Outstanding for C. LJ. were Charlie Beesley, Work, Christian, Orr and Chappell, but still Maryville won, twenty to nothing. TORNADOES MAKE BULLDOGS CHASE TAIL Facing a faster and by far a more powerful team, the Bulldogs ended their season in a glorious defeat. In the first quarter it was a question of give and take — and King took a nice touchdown. In the second Wagster kept the King Tornadoes away by good kicks, but the King speed demon, Shockley, insisted on returning them with beautiful ex- hibitions of running. The remainder of the game was repetition of the first half and the game closed with King twenty-five and C. U. nothing. Summers, Lusk, Johnson, Shaughnessy, and Wagster were on the outstanding list for Cumberland. [61] Front Row: Johnson, Sutton, Copeland, Allen, Hdckeft, Work, Shaughnessy, Phillips, Freeman.

THE SQUAD What quality is there about football that makes it so enjoyable to college men? Bone crushing tackles. Bodies hitting the ground. Twisted knees. Broken bones. Sprained ankles. All terrifying in them- selves. Yet fellows strain, slave, and train to get these body contacts. Psychologists would probably say that it is caused by an instinct or urge that is a hangover from cave man days when men had to fight for survival. When rough and ready tactics were the rules of the time. For example, there must have been some motivation that kept the above squad in- terested in the game. This picture was taken the day before the last game of the season, yet thirty men were still out in spite of the disastrous season. It ' s too bad that they could not have had more rewards for their efforts for this year ' s squad contained plenty of good material and better results should have been obtained. t62] B A S K E BOB GERALD, Basketball coach, pointing out the opposition ' s weakness to Captain Edwards. J. V. MORROW, manager, and RASCAL, the mascot. Rascal is the only mascot in the world with an LL.B. degree. T B A L L [63] BASKE Coach Bod Gerald is finishing his second year of law work in Cumberland, but had had plenty of experience with basketball be- fore enrolling here. He had coached high school basketball and varsity ball at Lynch- burg College, where his team racked up an impressive record. Last year he took over the Bulldog coaching duties and won seven games, losing six. This season the cagesters were only able to capture five games out of twelve, but they managed to outscore their opponents in total points by 522 to 466. Out of the total points scored by the C. U. quint, 340 tallies were rung up by two men — Patrick and Edwards. James Edwards, always called Droopy, hails from Dickson, Tennessee, and cap- tained the hoop throwers this season. For the second straight year Droopy carries away top honors in scoring with a total of 178 points, sinking 72 field goals and 34 foul shots — an average of 14.8 points per game. D. L. Patrick, Slim to his fans, is a sophomore from Radford, Tennessee. Get- ting off to a late start in scoring honors, Slim ' s erratic shooting ranks him second in scoring with 162 markers, 65 field goals and 29 free throws for a 13.5 average. James Fisher is from Carthage, Tennessee, and is the only member of this year ' s varsity not returning next year. Low in scoring ability with only 24 points, he is tops in guarding. Bernie Bass, fast little guard from Gor- densville, Tennessee, is a sophomore. Third in scoring with 89 points, Bernie is an all- around player and as smooth a ball handler as the team possesses. Charlie Beesley, Wartrace, Tennessee, re- ported for the varsity in mid season but still [64] TBALL manages to rate fourth in scoring with 30 tallies. Charlie is a good floor man. Joe Old Duck Carter, Nashville, Ten- nessee, rings the bell for 16 points during the short time that he played. Old Duck is one of two players having 100 per cent in foul shots made, netting four out of four. He was not present for a picture. Richard Freeman, sophomore from Bells, Tennessee, saw very little service, but should see more next year for his guarding ability. Kenneth Kenny, Paris, Kentucky, is an- other second stringer who played very little. He also has a 100 per cent in foul shots made. John Orr, freshman from Lewisburg, Ten- nessee, is one of the trickiest ball handlers on the squad. Fast and small, he should be detrimental to opposition next season. Barry Sutton, Carthage, Tennessee, had to quit early in the season to train for Golden Gloves and played only a few minutes. Huber Staley, referee, helps the team in practices.

Boxing, as a sport at Cumberland, is in its in- fancy. A limited sport budget provides very little reimbursement for fisticuif and so handicaps any- thing that may resemble a boxing team. Having scheduled no college foes, those who were out for boxing pointed for the Golden Gloves tournament that was held in Nashville. Seven were entered in the tourney. In the 135- pound division both Billy Lloyd and Fred Rowsey slugged through one opponent before losing out. And when the tourney reached the finals, there were five Cumberland boxers in it: Barry Sutton, Claiborne Nixon, Lester Abels, Ross Lusk, and Robert Copeland. In some close decisions that could have easily been decided either way, the C. U. boys lost all bouts: i. e. the judges thought so, but not the Cumberland students. But all in all, they made a good showing, considering. standing: Copeland, Lusk, Sutlon, Nixon. Thompson, Baker, Freeman. f 1661 S. A. E.

MEN ' S INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL The basketball tourney continued to be the number up a 24 to 13 victory over the Lawyers, the S. A. E. ' s one intramural sport attraction at Cumberland. Seven were hard pressed to deadlock the K. P. ' s 8-8. When teams were entered in one of the fastest and best con- the latter game was played over, the S. A. E.

The Gym had won the tournament the pre- all they could muster bet on the outcome of the game vious year and had practically the same bunch back, the Gym team was too tight and nervous to play the while the S.

[67] WOMEN ' S INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL The call for the teams for the fairer sex intramural tournament produced only three teams, but the bevy of beauties and their shapely legs more than made up for the lack of teams. While none of the games were close or exciting, they were fast enough to keep the girls panting. In the first rouge and powder game the D. P. O. ' s slapped the S. D. S. ' s down to the tune of 18 to 5 with Becky Weakley sharp shooting for 15 points for the D. P. O. ' s. The following night the Commuters won the lipstick classic by a one-sided score of 10 to 3. The Collegian all-star team included: For- wards: Burnette, Commuters; Weakley, D. P. O.; Moss, S. D. S. Guards: Burton, Com- muters; Zarecor, D. P. O.; Forrester, Com- muters.

CELLULOID WINNER With a shiny silver trophy giving added impetus to play, table tennis zoomed to stratospheric heights this year. Never before had there been such a widespread interest in this game at Cumberland. Two tables were occupied at all times, and when the tourney came the cream of the crop entered. Bill Simpson, sophomore in Lit school, won the coveted trophy. After drawing a bye in the first round Simpson downed Baker, Terry, and Kelly to reach the finals, where he outpinged Pat- rick, a dark horse, three out of five games.

Holman, Forrester, Thompson FORENSIC CLUB Officers Robert Forrester President Alfred MacFarla d Secretary Dr. Joseph Synnerdahl Faculty Instructor There was a new outlock for debating on the campus this year. Two purposes were accomplished; the first was to give training in public speaking and leadership to all debaters; the second purpose was to develop the highest quality of debating attainable by experience. To carry out this scheme the debaters were headed by Dr. Synnerdahl as coach and Robert Forrester as president. In the spring conference debate tournament at Car- •jcn-Newman, Robert Forrester and Alfred MacFarland debated on the affirmative squad and Luther Jce Thompson, Thomas Holman, and Walter Cartwright took the negative. These teams reached the semi-finals in the tournament. Buicham, Hotaling, Melton Mo5s, Sutton, Terry STRAY GREEK FRATERNITY Officers First Semester Second Semester Randall Burcham President Andrew G.

Warren, first tenor; J. Lester Abels, second tenor; Burton Wilson, baritone; Lyman Ligram, bass; and Eu- nice Cutler, accompanist. It has proven itself quite a contact and publicity agent for Cumber- land University. Having literally sung the name of Cumberland into the ears of thousands of high school students in Middle, East and West Ten- nessee and Kentucky, it has been a successful good will tour. And it is not entirely a business ven- ture because the quartet provides plenty of en- tertainment with singing that is strictly in the groove on spirituals, light classics, or just plain harmonizing.
