32 THE CHALK LINE June 3, 1932 FOOTBALL BANQUET On Wednesday evening, November 25, the stu¬ dent Body honored the football squad with a ban¬ quet at the Parish Hall of the St. John ' s Epis¬ copal Church. And what a banquet it was! The success of this affair was due to two outstanding causes: first, the hard work of the committee in charge of arrangements, and second, the fact that in the annual Thanksgiving game with Tus- culum College we tied the score, six and six, and what a game! After the way those boys fought in that game, is it any wonder that the banquet in their honor was a huge success? Dr. Field graciously and humorously acted as toastmaster and introduced the numbers on the program. Miss Nellie Gray entertained with two tap dance routines. She was accompanied by Miss Wilma Holloway. Miss Josephine Divine, accompanied by Miss Marjorie Metzgar, sang two popular numbers. Miss Metzgar played through¬ out the evening. On being introduced by Dr. Field, Alex Ken¬ nedy, captain of the team, surprised us all, by his powers of oratory. We didn ' t know he had it in him. He reviewed the season and told us that only one player would be lost through gradua¬ tion. Where does Kinky come in? Coach Batey complimented the team on their sportsmanship and support during the season. For Dean Burleson ' s benefit we will repeat the joke which Coach told twice. Even then the Dean didn ' t quite catch. We will print it here and he can study it during his leisure time. Quoting Coach Batey: A man got on Uncle John ' s bus the other day. He handed Uncle John a one dol¬ lar bill. Uncle John gave him back fifty cents, a quarter, a nickle, and a dime. The man looked at it, Uncle John said ' all right? ' The man said ' all right ' and went back and sat down. Dr. Sherrod was the last speaker of the even¬ ing. He was very cheerful, complimenting the boys on their efforts during the season and tell¬ ing them of an article he had read a day or so before, setting forth the fact that 80 per cent of the football players in America carry some in¬ jury received while playing football throughout life. Noble speech. We all appreciate it Dr. Sherrod. Thank you so much. During the evening several grand prizes were given. Dr. Wheeler and Alex Kennedy each re¬ ceived five gallons of gasoline. Martha Roach and Kenneth Johnson drew compacts, and last, but not least, the winner of the whiskers con¬ test, Joe Haskins, received a safety razor. Steady on your feet, Joe! Sevier Sabin was elected captain for next year ' s squad. Good luck, boys, you have chosen an excellent man to lead you. Here ' s to the success of future football teams and banquets at old T. C. We seniors wish you all the luck in the world. Kinky: My girl is like a shotgun shell. Sams: Howzat? Kinky: She ' s half shot and half powder. ATHLETICS The 1981-82 athletic seasons in the College brought out the greatest number of men ever to tryout for positions on the College varsities. Each sport enjoyed fair success with basketball showing the biggest and best percentage in the won and lost column. This year ' s crop of athletes showed a large number of freshmen material breaking into college competition and forming a back¬ ground for future good teams. Football Football in the College proved to be very popu¬ lar with the students. The best attendance and interest ever shown by the student body was dis¬ played at every game played on the local ath¬ letic field. The school spirit shown before the games was far superior to any previous outbursts of pep and ginger . Besides having the best interest and support ever shown, the football squad numbered more men than the largest of Teachers squads in past years. In the course of the season there were more than forty players who had taken part in the most famous of college games. Although the team did not set the world on fire with its win¬ ning percentage, it was one of the scrappiest in this neck of the Western Hemisphere. Led by Captain Alex Kennedy, the following men fought their way to the right to sport a T sweater. Prior Pop-Eye Hunt, Kenneth John¬ son, Earl Sams, Lynn Masengill, Jake Seaton, Gerard Peterson, George Gardner, Sevier Sabin, Milburn Waller, Joe Haskins, Lowell Kinkead, Gordon Brown, Roy Ledwell, Dean Bailey, Wil¬ liam Belew, and Manager Basil Hyder. Basketball No better and no worse could this branch of athletics finish than halfway up and halfway down in the conference with five games won and five games lost with conference teams. The team ended the season with a record of thirteen won and nine lost. Not the best nor the worst to rep¬ resent the institution. The season found the Teachers playing the hardest schedule ever undertaken by any team representing the College. Among the teams met were the World Champion Celtics or Rosenblums, Maryville, Carson-Newman. All told, the sched¬ ule consisted of twenty-two contests. The game with the Celtics attracted the larg¬ est crowd ever to attend a basketball game in or near Johnson City. Let us hope that they will appear here again next season as it is the best of programs. The fortunate ones to follow Captain Sam Galloway through the necessary bumps and thumps to also sport a T were: Dean Bailey, Ex- Capt. Howard Dyer, Earl Sams, Jake Seaton, Archie Hoss, Lynn Masengill, Charles Wayland Long John Crouch, Earl Nidiffer, and William Belew, Mgr. Baseball The horsehide season opened with plenty of bad weather and more candidates out than the school could supply uniforms. At last old Sol
