C. ifMll As TIME AND DISTANCE yield to the inexorable surge of motored speed, aviation becomes an ever more significant phase of modern life. Within a few decades it has vaulted from a realm of uncertainty to the amazing accomplishments of today. And the future offers a vista of untold possibilities. It would be sheer invention to pretend any close analogy between aviation and campus life. Though the motivating spirit that has spurred individuals on to courageous exploits in the air is symbolic of the innate adventuresomeness and bold ambition to be found in college men. Yet no idealistic resemblance urged our choice of a theme. For us aviation has never sunk into the realm of the commonplace. The roar of an airplane motor and the flash of sun on silver wings still excites and kindles our imagination. One can never think of aviation as stag- nating, but rather visualizes it striding forward to new achievement despite hazards and danger. Our thoughts are skyward and our minds are fired with the belief that aviation is only on the threshold of progress. Perhaps you too may know or capture this spirit, and grant your approval.

The Davidson College Alumni Association, through its ofTiccrs and its office .It the College, is lending active support to the College and its building program. I ' he alumni secretary. Conrad Irederick Smith. ' 26. is also publicity director of the College, and as such, is working hand in hand with the Administration in telling the world about Davidson Davidson ' s reputation has never shown more brightly, and it is the desire of all connected with the College that this reputation and this firm hold that Davidson has upon the public be translated into active support of its Centennial Program and of the years to come. The year has been a vital one from the standpoint of alumni meetings and interest shown by old Davidson grads everywhere. It has been generally agreed that there has never been a more interesting program than the Homecoming Day meet- ing in the banquet hall last November 6lh. just before the Carolina game I hree speakers of unusual worth ssere on the program: Dr Julian Miller, editor of the Charlolle 0 ).mtl ' it, David Ovens, head of Ivey ' s Department Store. Charlotte, and Dr. Walter 1.. I. ingle, president of the College Their talks were brilliant and witty, and entertained the large crowd of Homccomers no end. Then of course, the intro- duction and the presiding grace of Dr. Orcn Moore. ' 08. president of the Alumni Association added nnuh to the success of the meeting. Several were heard to say that no better collection of speakers in North Caro- lina could have gotten together for any occasion. During one week in November, the alumni secretary spoke before Davidson alumni meetings in Philadelphia. New York and Boston. It was good to sec the interest in Davidson displayed at all these meetings. One of the largest meetings of the fall was held in Winston-Salem on November 1st. Professor Archibald Currie. of the College faculty, delivered an inspiring address: The Things That Have Made Davidson Great. Professor Currie was also the main speaker at a large meeting of Charlotte and Meck- lenburg County alumni a few weeks later. More than 200 persons were present at this, the largest meeting of Davidson alumni off the campus. Two new chapters were organized during the year, those at Memphis and Boston. April started off the 1 ounders Day meetings, which centered about the Founders Day celebration at the College on April 12th. Among the best meetings were those in Atlanta, presided over by Dr. W. M. Dunn. 04: in Rock Hill. S. C. presided over by Dan S. LaFar, ' 51: in Florence, S. C presided over by Dr. Julian Price. ' 22: and Gastonia. N. C over which Frank P. Hall. Jr.. ' 20. was the presiding official. Davidson now has an Oriental chapter, composed of four members, of which Rev. A P. Hassell. D.D.. 06. is president: Rev. Martell A. Trcmain. ' 20. vice-president: Rev. J. Harper Brady. 14. treasurer: Rev. J. A. McAlpinc. ' 27, secretary. And before long, several alumni in Mexico intend to get together and form an organization below the Rio Grande. The April I 2th I ' oundcrs Day meeting was one of the largest celebrations ever held at Davidson. Governor Clyde R. Hoey. who received an honorary degree from Davidson last spring, was the main speaker. With many other attractions, the program attracted a large number of visitors from far and wide. The Alumni Association is being recognized more and more as an invaluable adjunct to the College, not only in its tradition and history, but in active support of all the aims and worthwhile projects of the College. — Fred S.mith.

Lingle President Dr. R. a. Dunn President Board of Trustees THE TRUSTEES The Trustees of Davidson College arc the Administrative directors of the school, and in their hands lies the control of the entire college. This group endeavors, not only to solve the problems of the school as a whole, but to provide for the needs of the students themselves. At the Trustees ' semi-annual meetings they receive reports from the President of the college, who summarizes the vari- ous activities and places before the Board the general needs of the school. Mr. F. L. Jackson reports the college ' s financial situation and aids the Finance Committee in its work. The different faculty Committees, which are in close touch with the students, also report at this time, and help in providing for the boys ' needs. Almost every form of college activities falls under the Trustees ' scope, and no important step can be taken without their ratification. The Trustees are elected for terms of four years by the Presbyteries of North Carolina and Florida, and by the Alumni Associa- tion. The Presbytery of Concord is entitled to elect eight: Mecklenburg, five; Orange and Fayetteville, four each: and ' the other five North Carolina Presbyteries, as well as the three in Florida, elect two. The Alumni Association is especially important in that it selects twelve members of the Board of Trustees. At their meeting in February the Trustees took under consideration several new projects. The most important of these was the authorization of the Buildings and Grounds Committee to make plans and specifications for a new library. This was done in order that construction might be started as soon as sufficient funds were in sight. The Committee was also instructed to have general plans drawn for a new science building, although no definite decision has yet been reached about this matter. In the President ' s report the college ' s present need of several new buildings, including a library, science building, church, dormitory, gymnasium, and social center was stressed. The Trustees also discussed at length ways of keeping Davidson abreast with the most modern ideas of education. This prob- lem is not a new one: and. in an effort to solve it. the Trustees sent ten professors last summer to schools where they could do research work in their individual fields. The result was so successful that next summer the same plan will be followed, and six men will be sent by the Board to various graduate institutions. The idea has not yet received the Trustees ' sanction to become an annual affair, but some program of this kind will be followed in the future. In his report Dr. Lingle proposed a plan that has been very favorably received — a sort of Sabbatical year, applicable to the faculty. Every six or seven years each faculty member will be given a year or six months ' leave of absence in which to study the latest developments in his field. The Trustees have already appointed a Committee to make a study of this plan, and it is quite probable that it will be-adopted in the near future. 28 ' TRUSTEES OF DAVIDSON COLLEGE 1)1 1 iciKs oi I hi; i rus i i;i-.s Dr. R. a.

Laffkrtv President Carrying with it a long time record of successful enforcement of the Honor System, the Student Coun- cil continues to be the most esteemed body on the campus. This group is composed of fourteen mem- bers, including the President of the Student Body, the Presidents of the three upper classes, and ten councilmen of whom five shall come from the Senior Class, three from the Junior Class, and two from the Sophomore Class. These councilmen are elected by secret ballot from a vote of their respective classes. Diversified duties keep the Council constantly at work, and it is a vital element in the promotion of higher ideals on the campus. The aforementioned Honor System is strictly adhered to by the Council, and all violations of this code are tried by them. A two-thirds vote of members present at trial is neces- sary for conviction. Supervision of the Court of Control is another task with which the Student Council is empowered. Any matters of discipline of freshmen that, in the opinion of the Court, are serious enough to warrant suspension or dismissal from college arc referred to the Council for action. Amendments to the Constitution of the Student Government arc first passed upon by the Student Council. Then the proposed amendment is read before the Student Body, after which it is tabled for a ten-day period, at the end of which time a vote of the Student Body is taken. A two-thirds majority is necessary for adoption. Taken in a sweeping glance, the Student Council represents an organization instituted for the fostering of an idealistic Davidson.

Davidson ' s honorary fraternities have an excellent founda- tion on which to work. These men have shown to students what worthy honorary positions may mean in life after college. Represented on the campus are eighteen of these honorary societies into which students may strive for admission. The Honorary Fraternity Council is the sole governing board of these organizations, selecting the ones it deems suitable for admittance. controlling [heir activities, and enforcing regulatory duties. 42 ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION oi 1 k;i Rs I KID W.

Through this organization the spirit of Davidson and her Wildcats is better expressed than through any other activity. Every student shows an active interest in some sport, whether that interest be expressed in intramural, inter-fraternity, or varsity competition. Back of every team representing Davidson is the support of the Athletic Association. And not only does it give its whole-hearted backing to athletic activities, but the association, through its officers and council, passes on the awarding of letters for varsity competition, awards Freshmen numerals, and is in active contact with every athletic event on the campus.

Jr. This body is composed of eight members, whose duties arc to hear, investigate, and deal with the charges of upperclassmen against freshmen for improper conduct, such as unbecoming at- titude, violating freshman regulations, or breaking college traditions. Any freshman charged is apprehended, tried by the Court, and sentenced if found guilty. The Court exercises the power to confine to the campus any freshman whose offense is not serious enough to warrant suspension from college. Any matters of discipline that, in the opin- ion of the Court, are serious enough to justify suspension or dismissal from college are referred to the Student Council. The eight members of the Court are appointed by the President of the Student Body in con- ference with the Senior members of the Student Council. Officers of the Court include a Judge, who presides over the Court, and a Recorder, who keeps an accurate record of all proceedings of the Court. ■44 ' PUBLICATIONS BOARD RKMAKU bH.KMAN VOWl.l s SAMl ' H- S RYBURN JAMis K.

Edward Tarry Watkins Vance. N. C. IIO ' Watson Street Adviser THE CLASS OF 1941 The one hundred and first Class of Davidson College came to the campus on September 10. Peculiar among Davidson freshmen, they found that they already had a leader when they arrived. The Constitution had been changed the preceding spring, empowering the Senior Class to choose one of their own number as Freshman Adviser. Shortly afterwards, Watson Street was elected to this position. From September 10-14. the freshmen had the campus to themselves, under the guidance of Dr. Gwynn and the Y Cabinet, but after these days of counsel and last minute advice they were swallowed up in the horde of upperclassmen who hit the campus. The frosh were soon made to feel their appropriate place by the upperclassmen. Within a few days they were bearing all the marks of their traditional inferiority and performing their menial tasks. The judge and his court seemed well pleased with the behavior of the class until late in the fall when sentences were frequent and severe. Their chief indiscretion, for which they have become famous, lay in their ability to misplace laundry. Of course an occa- sional outburst of spirit was characteristic of the class, but this spirit was expressed for the most part through legitimate channels. The Class of ' 41 feels that it has made a contribution to subsequent freshmen who come to Davidson. When the Class numerals, artistically done, appeared on the water tank, the frosh took immediate steps to prove that the culprit was not one of their own number: and having done so to the satisfaction of the Court, they were released from campus, the first class in many years to escape the traditional two weeks strict campus. In regard to accomplishments, the present class is on par with the average Class of the past. Despite the fact that approximately forty of their number were missing after the first semester, those remaining made contributions in the realm of Art, Music and Scholarship. Various extra-curricula activities claimed a great part of their talents. Their athletic record was not impressive, though several men of ability and promise were on the various teams. In the Spring, the Class has found itself the center of much discussion concerning fresh- men voting. The Class of ' 42 will be the first to enjoy this privilege. —Watson Street. 112 ey jT Catherine Covington SPONSOR 113 ' John Cal in Abels, J Eugene b«JDSA BARNWHLL, jR._. ' S ' ork. S. C. Robert W.

ToNISSEN Business Manager QUIPS AND CRANKS As the year-book of the Senior Class, the QuiPS AND CRANKS for 1938 offers a means of preserving a cross-section of student life at Davidson. Hardly content to end the job with Stu- dents ' picture and accounts of extra-curricular activities, the staff has tried to embody in the book a bit of the famous Wildcat spirit. Many new features have been added and changes have been effected in order to obtain a more colorful and accurate picture of Davidsan College life. For the first time there is included a beauty section containing girls ' pictures submitted by members of the student body and se- lected for publication by a well-known artist. Readily seen is the influence of the candid camera craze which has invaded the Davidson campus this year. Dozens of students have been dashing madly about, snapping shutters at odd moments in order to catch their roommates, fraternity brothers, and football heroes in unusual — often embarrassing— poses. The result was amazing, and so a collection of the best of these has been incorporated into this book. 124 ' STAFF of the 193.S QUIPS and CRANKS 1:1)1 lOKlAl S 1 All ' Jami:s Kyi Dorsi i i . Ju.

Business Manager THE DAVIDSONIAN Striving for a better Davidson, The Davidsonian is the students ' weekly newspaper pre- senting the news of both the college and the village. On each Monday night of the college year, the editorial staff — consisting of the editor-in-chief, six managing editors, and the under- classmen reporters — meets in its office on Elm Row to synthetizc the news of the previous week and prepare copy for the printer. Thru the signal efforts of the editor, numerous reforms have been effected so that the paper may be more truly the students ' . Progressive in policy, the staff takes an active part in campus affairs. The Davidsonian receives financial support from two major sources, the funds of the Pub- lications Board and advertising. Under the supervision of the business manager, advertising is solicited and the newspaper is mailed to alumni subscribers and distributed to members of the student body. The Davidsonian is recognized as one of the most progressive college papers in the South and has been ranked as a first-class honor newspaper by the National Scholastic Press Association in nation-wide competition for a number of years. 126 ' ht Baijitrgonia e the I. rchritra will fWI :i and Ih fct  ongs Mair idled by Bod 1271 SAM RYBURN.

Each issue brings to light new lit- erary talent, as embryo authors see their first poem — or short story — in print.

Realizing that he must keep in step with the times. College Humor, and the Davidsonian. Editor Ryburn has undertaken several ambitious projects, the most noteworthy of which was his promise to ferret out the freshmen culprits who painted the water tank. After long dallying he finally con- fessed that it was only a gag to help the circulation. Regular features have this year included Notes To You, a commentary on orchestras and music by Dick Vowles and Walt Heilman; The Book Shelf, a column of reviews con- ducted by George Milne: Poet ' s Corner, to which are relegated all the verse: and Ryburn ' s art work — air-brush covers, wood-cuts, and cartoons. 128 ' 129 THE FORENSIC COUNCIL W. B. KlESEWETTER Haywood Hill j. k. dorsett John Reisner Joe Calvin Sherrard Rice President First Vice-President Second Vice-President Secretary Treasurer . Debate Manager The Forensic Council, uncler the supervision of a faculty committee, of which Professor C. K. Brown is chairman, has charge of all inter- collegiate debating at Davidson. The Council is composed of six members, chosen each year by the retiring council from the ranks of those who have shown special interest in debating. For the year 1937-38 the council was composed of William Kiesewetter. president; Haywood Hill and James Dorsett, vice-presidents: John Reisner, secretary; Joe Calvin, treasurer; and Sherrard Rice, debate manager. Among other duties, the Forensic Council works out the budget and the schedule of debates for the year, acts as host to visiting debating teams, selects a freshman debating team, and conducts a tournament for this team. Three debating trips are scheduled each year; one trip northward into Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York; one southward into South Carolina. Georgia, Ala- bama and Florida; and one westward into Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia. Also, four or five debates are held at Davidson with visiting teams. Among the colleges which David- son debated in 1937-38 were Dartmouth, Rut- gers, Westminster of Pennsylvania, Hampdcn- Sydney, College of Charleston, University of Florida. Birmingham-Southern. University of the South. Southwestern, and Centre. Instead of scheduling intercollegiate debates for the freshman team this year a tournament was held at Davidson among the six members of that team. This tournament was judged by the varsity debaters and first and second prizes were awarded to the best individual debaters. 130 ■ Kenyon K 1 1 s I M I I I k DEBATING TEAMS The v.irsuy debating si)ujd is com- posed of six principals and three alter- nates. This group is selected by the faculty committee on debating after hearing the five-minute trial speeches of all candidates. The squad is then di- vided into three teams of two principles and an alternate each. Professor Brown coaches the entire squad before debates with other colleges are held. The principal subject debated was; Resolved: That the National Labor Re- lations Board should be empowered to enforce arbitration of all industrial dis- putes. In addition, two debates were held on the question. Resolved: That the United States should adhere to its present policy of neutrality. Davidson defended both sides of the former ques- tion, and the negative of the latter.

In choosing their members the Masquers recognize not only dramatic talent, but also diligent service of those who have worked as managers and make-up men. In addition to having charge of student dramatics, the Masquers each year sponsor some professional presentation of real dramatic worth.

There is a great deal of over-lapping in the personnel of Ke groups, yet each organization has its distinct rules and work.

There is a desire in the hearts of all for an aesthetical apprecia- tion, and music of the caliber that the Davidson Symphony presents does much to instill an appreciation of the beautiful. When dying, Darwin said that if he had his life to live over he would try to listen to beautiful music at least once a week. Davidson recognizes the im- portance of this art, and we are proud of the way in which this recog- nition has materialized into a realization. Thane McDonald, Direcu ' -.

GLEE CLUB TiiANE McDonald Tliis year ' s Davidson College Varsity Glee Club, under the direction of Thane McDonald, has a limited membership of thirty voices augmented by a smaller auxiliary group of fifteen voices. The Glee Club has served regularly as the Vesper Choir for the College Sunday evening Vesper Service, at which time the finest sacred choral music is sung. On two occasions the Club has joined with the other musical organizations in presenting an entire service, one of these being a Musical Vesper Service given in conjunc- tion with the Orchestra early in the first semester. The other was the annual Christmas Vesper Service when the Glee Club joined with the Symphonic Band and Orchestra in a memorable service of Christmas hymns and special numbers. This year a fifteen minute Sunday morning Chapel service has been broadcast direct from Chambers Auditorium through radio station WSOC. On this program, which is given jointly by the College Y. M. C. A. and the Music Department, the music consists of Church Hymns sung by a selected double Quartet and appropriate organ music played by Mr. McDonald. The newly organized Varsity Quartet replaces the group which graduated last year and consists of the following Glee Club members: first tenor. James Ballard: second tenor. John Wilson: baritone. Harper Beall; bass. Stuart Oglesby. In addition to other outside appearances the Glee Club went on the annual tour in March making several appearances in churches, schools and Colleges. OFFICERS R.

I ' reas. Lt. Col. John T. Rhei i . Maj, Charles L. Steele, Maj. James L. Ballard. R. O. T. C The most important element in any army is its corps of officers. That fact was recogniz cd by Congress on July 2. 1862, during the Civil War, when it passed a bill known as the Mor- rill Act which required that military training be included in the curricula of colleges and uni- versities receiving grants of public lands. From the Civil War to the World War these institu- tions supplied a large number of excellent of- ficers. After the World War it was recognized that these college-trained officers were of in- estimable value, and as a result the provisions of th e Morrill Act were improved and ex- tended to the present Reserve Officers Training Corps. When the United States entered the World War, the major deficiency was trained officers: and that lack contributed, more than any other factor, to the delay in sending troops to Europe. Even today the Regular Army and the National Guard could furnish but a handful of officers in the event of a general emergency. The Re- serve Officers Training Corps is the only means by which the great need could be met. It is one of our most important national institutions. It is the keystone of the arch of our national de- fense. The Reserve Training Unit was established at Davidson College in 1920, following the World War. It has commissioned as Second Lieutenants in the Officers Reserve Corps ap- proximately thirty-five students each year dur- ing the last fifteen years. Some of these graduates have entered the Regular Army, and many have been and are on duty with the Civilian Conser- vation Corps, Others have taken their places in the business world and would be available should a general mobilization become necessary. In addition several thousand students have been given a limited amount of Military Training. If the country is never forced into war, the value of military training will be a decided asset in the business world. The poise of mind and body, habits of discipline, courtesy and respect for constituted authority obtained in the Reserve Officers Training Corps will more than com- pensate for the time and expense devoted to this type of instruction. Sound thinking, good habits, organizing ability, and leadership come from mental discipline. A successful man must understand how to lead men as well as how to follow. The Reserve Officers Training Corps aims to impart that ability. Lt. Col. John T.

State 6: Davidson 2 With prospects bright for another successful year, Davidson ' s Wild- cats blew the lid off their 1937 sea- son in a thrilling battle against the State Wolfpack. The Wolves tallied in the second quarter on a pass from Rooney to Tatum and hung onto their lead for the remainder of the fracas, repulsing the Wildcats time after time in the very shadow of the goal posts. The only Davidson score came when Murray of State was tossed behind his own goal line by half the Cat team. The diminutive Frank Purdy played a great defen- sive game in the center of the line, while Captain Bailey Williams looked good at end until he was hurt and forced out of the game. Davidson 21; Erskine 6 Coach Gene McEver ' s charges took the field against the Erskine Seceders as top-heavy favorites, but the Cat offense was unable to get started and at the half Erskine led by a 6-0 score. The third period, however, was a different story. With his blockers WILDCATS McClelland f t TEIINY ■ I.AIIIKIV, liuih Honorable Mention AllAmeruan cutting huge gaps in the opposing line and mowing down the second- ary in All-Amcrican style, fleet- footed Teeny Lafferty carried the leather on almost every play and led his mates in three touchdown drives. Running like a will-o ' -the-wisp, he gained at will, while the defense held the Seceders powerless. The second-stringers played the last quarter and failed by a scant foot to add another six points to the Davidson score. Duke 34: Davidson 6 Fighting desperately in the face of insurmountable odds, the Wildcats put up one of the gamest battles ever seen on Richardson Field before they finally succumbed to superior weight and numbers. Three times did Duke march to the Davidson five-yard stripe, but each time, with the old Wildcat spirit flaming high, the men of Davidson braced and took the ball on downs. The Cats, however, were woefully weak in the kicking department, be- ing unable to boot the pigskin out of danger and just before the end of the half the Blue Devils managed to push over a touchdown. In the second half, lacking sufficient reserves and outweighed some fifteen pounds to the man, the valiant Wildcats found the scoring machine that rolled over Georgia Tech and Colgate too much for them, although LafFerty thrilled the stands again and again with his brilliant running. The bitterest blow felt by the Davidson football cause all the season fell in the third period when Teeny, after receiving a Duke kickofF and threading his way through the whole team, was tackled by Hackney. Blue Devil safety man. and his shoulder severely injured. Davidson ' s tally came in the final quarter when Bill Davis reserve back ter- minated a long downfield march by smashing over the Duke goal line. V. M. I. 7: Davidson With five regulars sitting on the bench because of injuries sustained in the Duke game, the Wildcats were forced to use a hastily revised line-up. Fred Dennis shifted from his blocking back position to the tailback to bear the brunt of the ball-carrying duties. Luke Graham moved over from tackle to guard to take the place of Haywood Hill and turned in a splendid performance, the best of his career. With the hard-running Dennis lugging the leather on nearly every play Davidson worked into scoring position time after time, but seemed to lack the final punch necessary to put it over the Virginia goal line. The game was a nip and tuck battle except for the few minutes when Sopho- more Paul Shu, V. M. I. halfback, blew hot and in five successive plays carried the ball over sixty yards to pay dirt, topping off this feat with a place kick for the extra point. 1 South Carolina 12: Davidson 7 With Laffcrty still nursing his bum shoulder. Davidson again lacked a scor- ing punch and were nosed out of the win column by one touchdown for the second time in as many Saturdays. Dennis played another fine game at the tailback, post and made the Cats ' only tally when he plunged across the Gamecock double stripe from the one-yard marker. Williams making the conversion. South Carolina scored its first touchdown in the second period on a long pass from Lyons to Lonchar in the end zone and the second a few minutes later when Robinson carried it across after recovering a Davidson fumble. Centre 8; Davidson Playing with a blustery snowstorm overhead and slushy conditions under- foot, the Cats failed to capitalize on their speedy offense and the smashing power plays of the Kentuckians were too much for them. For the first time in three weeks Laffcrty got in the game for a short while, but the mud and his still ailing shoulder slowed him up considerably. Bill Davis took his place and shared the ball-carrying chores with Fred Dennis. Scoring a safety in the second quarter and a touchdown in the third, the Pray- ing Colonels took revenge for the crushing defeat they received last year at the hands of the Wildcats. Davidson 13: Furman 9 Maybe it was the presence of the girls from Winthrop who were guests of the Davidson Student Body for the day or maybe it was the memory of four lickings in as many weeks and that 14-13 loss to Furman last year, but the Wildcats snapped out of their slump and calmed the Purple Hurricane to a gentle zephyr. J ?r Bill Davis took over the tailback duties and did a great job of running and passing, assisted by Fred Dennis. Fighting desperately all the way, the Cats were trailing by a 9-7 score when the big clock showed only six minutes to play. With the ball resting near mid- field, Davis and Dennis advanced it to the enemy 24- yard stripe in four plays. Then Davis faded back and cut lose with a long heave to Bailey Williams. Sur- rounded by Furman backs, the big end went high in the air to make a nearly impossible catch and fall over the goal line with the ball in his arms. North Carolina 26: Davidson Using solely a spin play formation, the Tar Heels employed speed, power, deception, and magnificent timing to exhibit one of the fastest and most versatile attacks ever seen on Richardson Field, With machine- like blocking clearing the way for the Carolina ball- carriers, the Wildcats were powerless before the offense that ran wild over the Duke Blue Devils a few days later. In her only scoring threat of the afternoon David- son used an end-around play in which the ball was lateralled to Ned Iverson, who heaved a pass to Wil- liams on the Carolina 15-yard line. Harvard 15: Davidson Invntiing tlic age-old Ivy League for an intersectional game, the Wildcats met the Oimson in Cambridge. With the rain pouring in torrents throughout the game, and the field ankle deep in water, neither team was able to show anything like a consistent running attack. However the superior weight of the Northerners told on the C its and F-rank f-oley led his Harvard team- mates tcT victory. This is probably the only game in modern football history in which neither team used a forward pass. Capiain-biect Waki- Fori ST 19: Davidson 7 Afflicted with a bad case of fumblitis in the first period, the Cats were unable to hold onto the ball and the Deacons got away to an early lead by cashing in on the Davidson misplays. LafFerty entered the game in the second quarter and ran wild over Wake Forest for a few minutes, but was luirt and carried from the field. Bill Davis then came in and engineered a passing attack that netted the Wild- cats ' lone touchdown. Using mainly an off-tackle play. Glass and Fuller were the main cogs in the Deacon offense.

Hand, VARSITY SQUAD Came the first of February and Coach Gene McEver to muster the remnants of the 1937 Wildcat grid team for a six-week session of spring training. Missing from the ranks were many of the stars of last fall, but new men have come along to take their places in the line-up. Such veterans as Iverson, Stair, McClelland, Davis, and Captain Warden form the framework on which will be built the Davidson football hopes for next season, and a number of promising grid-iron warriors have risen from the ranks of the freshman squad to become a threat to the oldsters. So Coach McEver is looking for- ward to his second season as head coach with a smile on his face as he sees the Wildcats taking the field next fall with the old fighting spirit, and another year in the history of Davidson football has come to an end. coW cH£S BASKETBALL WITH THE WILDCAT CAGERS Although the Davidson Wildcat basketball team failed to break even during the season, the 1937-1938 five will go down as one of the strongest teams in David- son basketball history. A total of twelve points made the difference between third and eleventh place in the Southern Conference standings to the Davidson junior cagers as the Wildcats came to be known since four members of the varsity quintet were juniors and will be back for another year of service. Six games were lost in conference play by a margin of two or less points. Victories in these games would have landed the ' Cats into third place, behind North Carolina and N. C. State. The highlight of the season was Davidson ' s 18-point. 40-22. victory over the Duke Blue Devils in Winston-Salem early in the season. This Davidson victory broke a I 7-game losing streak which the Dukes held over the ' Cats for the past nine years. These same Blue Devils went on later in the season to win the Southern Conference tourney. { • V With the best m.iiori.il in many years on hand. Athletic director Norman Shcpard replaced Tlake l.aird. who had served the past six years, as varsity basketball coach. The Cats started off fast and went into their mid term examination stretch with six wins in ten starts, three of their losses being by one, two and three-point margins to North Carolina. N. C. Stale , and the crack semi-pro McCrary quintet respectively. However this two-week examination lay-off saw the Wild- .at.s fall back and win but four of their remaining twelve games after exams. Davidson ' s 61 points against Furman. along with Washington and I.ce ' s 61 markers against William and Mary, was the individual game high for the season in conference play. Four juniors carried the brunt of the burden for the Cats this season. Ned Iverson. Johnny lice. J. D. Hicks and Footsie Cowan teamed together along with Bill Kiesewetter and Dan Iverson. two senior guards, to form the best quintet that David- son has had since the 1929-1930 season. Cowan, a transfer from Mars Hill, was high scorer for the season with 223 points. This was Davidson ' s 2 3rd season in intercollegiate basketball competition and the Davidson record for this period stands with 193 wins against 190 losses. During this time Davidson teams have scored 12.332 points to their opponents ' 11.577. $ J- Cowan, c 22 N.

Monroe Wicker, and its Southern Conference pole vault champion, Charlie Sample. The loss of these two stars cost the Wildcats their first meet of the season which was lost to the University of South Carolina 67-64. The Wildcats, coached by Pete Whittle for the third season, got off to a good pre-season start when they tied with Virginia Poly for third place in the ninth annual Southern Conference indoor track meet held at Chapel Hill. It was at this meet that Charlie Sample, a junior, won the conference pole vault title by clearing 1 2 feet 2 inches, which is several inches short of John Lee ' s school record of 1 2 feet 7% inches, established in 1936. However the week before the Wildcats were scheduled to open their 1938 campaign with the University of South Carolina, both Charlie Sample and Monroe Wicker went down with in- juries. Captain Wicker sustained a leg injury which kept him out of both the South Carolina and Maryville meets but he was expected to be back in shape in time for the Wildcat ' s third meet of the season, with Vir- ginia Poly at Blacksburg. The University of Virginia was the only new team to appear on the track schedule this season. replacing Furman and Catawba. Otherwise the sche- dule remained intact from last season. As the Wildcats won six of their seven meets last season, only two opponents loomed in the way of a perfect record for the ' Cats, most of whom returned from last year ' s squad. These two opponents were the Duke Blue Devils, conquerers of the ' Cats last sea- son, the University of Virginia, winners of the Chapel Hill non-conference track tourney this spring. However the Whittlemen saw their possible unde- feated dream pass as they went down in defeat in an upset to the University of South Carolina by a 67-64 count with a sure 15 points sitting on the side lines in the persons of Sample and Wicker. This writing finds the Wildcats on the way to Maryville. Tenn.. when the Whittlemen were odds on favorites to defeat the Maryville Scotties. But the remainder of the picture is uncertain. With- out the services of Sample, a sure winner in the pole vault, meets with Virginia Poly. Virginia and Citadel will probably be too close. Against the Duke Blue Devils, the Wildcats have only an outside chance at the most. I ' lii- ' C;. ls loom strong in tlii ' fklil events and well lorti fu ' d in tlic running events. The onlv Davidson all-time records tliat appear in danger this season are Coble ' s 180 feet 2 inch javelin throw, established in IQ ' il, and Cochran ' s MS feet 4 inch discus heave, established in IQH. Swede Johnson looms as a threat to topple Coble ' s mark while Bailey Williams, foot- ball captain, has a good chance to top Clochran ' s record. The line-up tor the Wildcats this season appears as follows: 100-yard dash: Wilson. Birmingham, and Baker. 220-yard dash: Wilson. Baker and Barrow. 440-yard dash: Hickman.

The 1938 Wildcat nine appears to be a well balanced outfit, there being nine good but no outstanding ball players on the club. With Jim Thomas, Dave McLean and George Ficklen around to help last season ' s veterans, J. D. Hicks and Eddie Stcere, carry the burden of the mound duty, the Wildcats seem well fortified on the hill. The Wildcat infield, with Jim Dunford on first. Grey Hunter on second, Ellwood Moyer on short and Sam Hemphill at the hot corner, should stack up well with the remainder of the Southern Conference infields. Walter Fitzgerald and Dick Lindsey give Coach Flake Laird two capable reserve infielders. In the outer garden the ' Cats have Hugh Verner in left. Tubby Hand in center, and John Rudisill in right, with Fielding Clark doing relief duty. Captain Joe Kellam carries the brunt of the catching assignment with Horace McCall and Bill Manson working as second string receivers. That is the way the Davidson baseball is shaping up at this writ- ing. With only two games behind them it is hard to tell just how the Wildcats will go as neither of their games have been with South- ern Conference opponents and the ' Cats have 12 conference games this season. Although the Wildcats dropped their opening game to the Lance Packing Company of Charlotte 7-5. the ' Cats gave every indication that afternoon that they were in for a good season. However in their second contest, the Lairdmen went to pieces after piling up a 9-6 lead in the fifth frame and ended up on the wrong end of a 24-9 count. This agony lasted exactly 3 hours and 5 minutes. To ask the ' Cats to more than break even in the win and loss column this season would be demanding too much: but to see the Lairdmen accomplish this would not be surprising even though they got off to a bad start. At the present time the pitching staff is somewhat crippled as the club ' s ace, J. D. Hicks, is unable to make trips. If this holds true for the season Davidson will be in a bad way when the ' Cats make that state trip to Carolina. State. Duke and Wake Forest on successive days the last week in April. The club got its first break from the weather man in many years in its spring practice before the opening of the schedule. For three straight weeks, with the exception of one afternoon, the ' Cats were able to get in their daily practice and when the opening game pulled around, the Davidson nine was in the best shape that any Davidson baseball club has been in at that time of the season in many years. However about this time the weather man forsook the Wildcat camp and came down in wrath, raining out Davidson ' s first three Big Five and Southern Conference games, a doublchcadcr with Duke and a single game with North Carolina, I AriM.v J.,) Kt Mm u IImi, l .i.i,ir;.-r 1 1h ' D.ividson Minim.irv .ind sihiiiiili.

Three of the Davidson losses were by a margin of two or less points and in only one of the seven meets were the ' Cats badly outclassed. V. M. I.. Southern Conference champions this season, found the Wildcats plenty tough and the Cadets were lucky to score a 14J.2-13}! win over the plucky Davidson matmcn. coached for the second straight season by Parks Harrison. N. C. State. Big Five champions and generally regarded as one of the strongest teams in the South this season, barely defeated the Cats 16-14 and the Winston-Salem Y. M. C. A. also handed the Harrisonmcn a similar defeat in the opening meet of the season. Only against the Washington and Lee Generals were the Wildcats completely outclassed. In this meet, heavyweight Captain Howard McFadyen ' s decision over Lykes saved Davidson from a shut-out. Davidson ' s lone win of the season was over the Duke Blue Devil machine by the score of 24 to 8. Scoring a total of 2 6 points during the season. Captain Howard McFadyen. heavyweight, was undoubtedly the standout on the team and he went on to capture the heavyweight title in the South- ern Conference tourney. No tourney was held last year and as McFadyen was high scorer among the conference heavyweights he is credited as being the Southern Conference heavyweight champion for the past two years. The only match that McFadyen lost the past two years in meets was a decision to Davis of Virginia Poly this season. The surprise of the season was work of captain-elect Joe Craver who scored five wins in seven meets and then went on to capture third place in the 13 5-pound class in the conference tourney. The Wildcats sent four men. Captain Howard McFadyen, captain-elect Joe Craver. Bill Telford and Graham McFadyen. to the Southern Conference tourney in Blacksburg and this half-a-team came back successfully in a tie for third place.

Captain Harry Frampton. James Reinhardt. and Rhea Tenney set the pace for the Wildcats in these first eight meets as they went undefeated in their eight single matches. Reinhardt set an amazing record of winning 16 straight sets in his eight matches, losing but a total of 29 games while win- ning 97 games. Captain Frampton follows close behind with 16 straight set victories showing a loss of only J6 games. Davidson ' s number one man, Rhea Tenney. a sophomore, also came through with a great record. In his 8 matches he ha.s dropped but 5 sets while winning 16. Tenney completes the trio of Davidsons undefeated single players. Bronston Kcnney. number two senior, has not fared as well as the others this season although his record of five wins in seven matches is very good. George Jones, a junior, playing at number five, has come through with six wins in eight meets while Northcross. competing the team at the sixth posi- tion, has five wins in six matches. Thus for the first eight meets of the season the Wildcats have a remarkable record of 56 points against their Opponents ' 12. Six of these losses have been in the doubles play. Rhea Tenney and Bronston Kenney have dominated the play in the doubles for the Wildcats for the season, having suffered but one setback in their seven matches. At this writing Davidson has scored wins over South Caro- lina. Presbyterian. Furman. Mercer. Rollins. Stetson and the Hickory tennis club. Only Emory has been able to topple the ' Cats and this was by the narrowest of margins. S-4. Davidson has dropped but 7 points to their other seven opponents. Nine other matches, along with the Southern Conference schedule, remain on the Wildcat schedule. The Wildcats will be favored to take all of their remaining matches and should have a fighting chance to defeat the ever powerful North Caro- lina tennis team this season.

With only one veteran returning from last year ' s record breaking golf team, Davidson ' s linksmen enjoyed a fairly good season. Out of a nine-game schedule, the ' Cats won four of the first six matches played. The ' Cats opened their season with a one-sided win over Catawba by a 8 ' ; -3 ' 7 score in a match played at the Charlotte course. Then turning south- ward, they continued their winning ways with a close victory over the Univer- sity of South Carolina by a 10-8 score. Maples and Pittman turned in the best cards for the match. Citadel stopped the ' Cats ' winning streak of two games by taking them into camp to the tune of 9J 2 -8J , after the ' Cats had led most of the way. Florida made it two losses in a row for the linksmen as they finally eked out a 10-8 win. The ' Cats then returned to form and won the next two matches with com- parative ease. Georgia furnished plenty of opposition but the ' Cats garnered a 9 ' 2 -8 ' 7 win. Returning to Davidson, the ' Cats overwhelmed Hampden-Sydney by a 14-4 score. The team was composed this year of Ray Pittman as the number one man, Charley Pegram as number two, Henson Maples as number three, and Jimmy Cooper as four. Yates Faison acted as alternate. Maples, who was medalist for the year, played superb golf of the brand that won him the Amateur tournament held at Pinehurst early in the season. He is a senior and was a member of last year ' s fine quartet. This year he has acted as both manager and captain of the team. Pittman played his first year of varsity golf and will be available for service next year. He made the frosh quartet his first year, and ranked high in last year ' s tourney. Pegram is one of the two sophomores on the team. He played number two position on the frosh team and scored third in the qualifying tournament. He will be available for two more years ' service on the team. Cooper is the other sophomore on the team. He also played on the frosh team in his first year and has two more years of eligibility. CROSS COUNTRY Cammcin, }. Cammon. Besides winning what is thought to be the first night triangular cross country meet ever held, the Davidson cindcrpath- men. coached by Pete Whittle, finished the season in second place in the Big Pive and in third place in the Southern Con- ference. It was at Macon. Ga.. during the half of the night football game between Mercer and Oglethorpe that the Davidson team is credited with winning the first night cross country meet on record. Running against Mercer and Auburn, the Wildcats came in 16 points ahead of Auburn and 45 points better than Mercer. The Wildcats lost but one meet during the season and that was to the University of North Carolina. 46-17. their last meet of the season. SOCCER I CiAUUON ' . Jov Third Rm-: Myeks. Kk KORNEGAY, LaSKOWS The latest sport to become established at Davidson, soccer, had its third season of intercollegiate competition in 19 7 and came through with a satisfactory if not a winning record. The Davidson soccer team, paced by manager and captain Sam Cothran. dropped its first four games before finally coming into its own. After losing two games to High Point, one to Duke and one to Clemson. the ' Cats came back to score a tic with Clemson and then closed the season by scoring two straight shut out wins over the Catawba Indians.

Monroe Wicker This honorary organization, which recognizes only those who have reached the topmost rungs in the ladder of scholarship, was the first of American Greek letter fraternities. Organ- ized at the college of William and Mary. Williamsburg, Virginia, in the year 1 776. Phi Beta Kappa began as a social organization, but soon outlined a constitution with scholarship as its requisite. The chapter at Davidson was established in 1922. coming as a worthy successor to the Mimir Society, whose ideals and principal characteristics are embodied in Phi Beta Kappa. Charter members of the chapter at Davidson included the following: President-Emeritus W. J. Martin. Professor W. L. Porter. Professor W. W. Wood, and Dr. E. F. Shewmake. Each year about one-tenth of the senior class is chosen for membership into Phi Beta Kappa in two portions, one in the fall semester and another in the spring semester. However, actual control of the fraternity is in the hands of the faculty rtiembers. Many accomplishments and improvements have been made this year under the following officers: President. Professor H. T. Lilly: Vice-President. Dr. P. H. Gwynn, Jr.: and Secretary -Treasurer, Dr. W. P. Gum- ming. Among the new resolutions passed on by the society this year were the setting of special averages for membership, a new system of evaluation for grades, and the omission of all averages in minor subjects, such as attendance, music, and military science.

First they recog- nize men who have attained a high standard of cfTiciency in collegiate activities, and inspire others to strive for conspicuous attainments along similar lines. Secondly, they bring together the most representative men in all phases of collegiate life and thus create an organization which will help to mould the sentiment of the institution on questions of local and intercollegiate interest. Thirdly, they bring together members of the faculty and student body of the insti- tution on a basis of mutual interest and understanding. This honorary fraternity was founded at Washington and Lee University in 1 )14. and Delta Circle was established at Davidson in 1917. The control of the circle is always in the hands of the student membership. Twice during the year, once in the fall and once in the spring. Delta Circle conducts inspirational tap days in the college chapel, honoring by admit- tance to membership only those in whom are reflected inherent and distinctive qualities of leadership. Omic ron Delta Kappa is the spark which sets ablaze many constructive movements of the student body, and its influence toward the success of such movements penetrates the entire campus. The organization is not a combine of single heroes each - fivini. t,,T h} own glory, but a unit of strong leaders joined in bonds of cooperation. 233 SIGMA UPSILON (LITERARY) Founded at Sewanec in 1 906 Blue Pencil Chapter Fratres in Faculiale Ernest Albert Beatv Cecil Kenneth Brown William Patterson Cumming Chalmers Gaston Davidson Edward Jones Erwin AuGUSTiN Victor Goldiere Frazer Hood Erontis Withers Johnston Henry Tracy Lilly Fratres in Collegia 1938 Henry Wade Barrow Alton Riley Gates.

Suddenly The Date (prearranged with the boy friend) reaches over and kisses Bounder very .soundly — poor Bounder ran the car off the road and nearly overturned, and according to witnesses, under- went strange convulsions and color changes Holt ' s dirt contributions have been of a continuous nature. and each tale has been somewhat of a sequel, but no one inci- dent would be complete in itself, so will only give the cause and result. The Cheerleader vaidly adored an attractive Monroe lass, but difficulties developed (usual feminine frailty), and Mister Holt was given the proverbial fluff off — another version has it that he did the fluffing, but III give the lady the benefit of the doubt Then followed a series of exciting amorous ad- ventures that thrilled the hearts of all Davidson men. til finally he came to rest in the arms of I.ou — however, a hard scrutiny of his vaguely blue eyes will still find a peculiarly harrasscd ap- pearance there Trouble seemingly an uncontrolled adherence to feminine blandishments. Bet alotta fellows disappointed because this stuff lacks customary critical poniards — yknow. the old knock everything vin — but as the sheepskin proximates itself, the things that seemed so momentous at the time dwindle into petty upsets — a few unpleasant memories dwarfed by a bunch of fine ones Certainly — the faculty heads admit it — there ' s a great deal here that could stand improvement but most of us feel that we ' re still on the right track, that considering everything, the school is still tops Maybe some future group will seize our rather pitable little groping suggestions and visions, amplify and com- plete them; and from the vantage of possessing the experience of a turbulent past, eliminate the conditions that causes have irked us innumerable times — no more squabbling over the dance question, the censors, the hous. ' partics. and the compulsory church and maybe someday, when the correct incantation warbles its way forward. You and myself, aged, brittle, and ricky in our respective rocking chairs, can lean back and say I Told You So which should be a pleasure, since from the male angle of the marital mess, the occasions when he can use those words are very rare — a supposition that we all get mar- ried.
