AFTER COLLEGE — WHAT? I am only one, but still I am one; I cannot do something and because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something I can do. We may not all be lucky enough to get posi¬ tions as soon as we graduate so let ' s make the best of it wherever we go. June the second our school days end in holi¬ day ; friends must part and journeys start to new adventures far away. Some of us may get mar¬ ried and that will be a new type of experience while others may enter the teaching profession for life. Just because we have a college degree under our arm is no sign we know all there is to know; in fact, we have just completed another chapter of our lives. We must realize that we don ' t know anything. We are just one among many. Let ' s live to learn and remember we never get too old to learn. Our school days have been happy ones. We have formed many friendships here that will last forever. The teachers have all been so kind and good to us. Yes, they have made us work, but it was for our own benefit. Now, they won ' t ‘‘flunk us maybe as we are so near graduation. We seniors soon will all be parted; And each will enter into life ' s game; We ' ll all strive hard to be worthy; Of our dear Alma Mater ' s name! DO YOU KNOW? Lois Atchley tap-dancing?

Mr. Batey: “A centipede with corns. Bob Grindstaff: “Many a man who has had his M. A. and his B. A. is still living on his P. A. Do you know that if one does not have some life principles himself, no one will have any for him? That one can say yes to the crowd more easily than he can say no? That one only has a true friend by being true to him? That everyone treats a king handsomely, but it is only a gentleman who is courteous to a beg¬ gar? That after your death the world would con¬ tinue just the same? That your attitude in college will continue with your life work? That it does not matter how good you are, there is always some one just a little bit better? That it is not the “A student that always makes a success in life? That some one is watching each step you take, and that you are influential in some one ' s life? That it is much easier to criticize than to ac¬ cept criticism?

28 THE CHALK LINE June 2, 1933 ATHLETICS FOOTBALL BASEBALL The major sports program was taken over this year by Coach McMurray. Football camps started September 13th with a motley crew as¬ sembling. Many of last year ' s squad were absent but this loss was in a measure adjusted by the presence of many new faces. By the first of school these two elements had been made into enough of a team to beat Union. Improvement through¬ out the remainder of the season was steady. For the first time in four years the final list of wins and loses balanced in the black instead of the red. Good sportsmanship and confidence character¬ ized the season. The squad loses only two men through graduation and with a number of good prospects coming in the outlook for next year is brighter than the poetic June day. Coach has already expressed his confidence in the 1933 team by making the hardest schedule ever attempted by this school. It ' s all up to the boys. Let ' s fight, boys! Those lettering this year are: Sevier Sabin, captain; Masengill, McCall, Bailey, captain-elect ' 33; Seaton, Musick, Shull, Wayman, Taylor, Hunt, Brown, Belew, Peterson, Hyder, manager; Ledwell, and Waller. BASKETBALL The basketball season ' s prospects were good from the start with a team of lettermen from the preceding year back and enthusiasm carried over from football. Even before the football season was over some were practicing basketball. By the end of the season the results spoke for themselves. Teachers had second place in the Smoky Mountain Conference. The victories as compared to defeats was such that there is a positive danger of spoiling the grandstand. Be¬ sides the actual winning and losing the whole season was marked by a spirit of enthusiasm, confidence, and good sportsmanship which is more to be desired than winning. With graduation taking only one man, the 1934 squad is out to trade the place of second in the conference for first place. Those lettering in basketball for 1933 are: Lynn Masengill, Bill Shearer, Harvey Boyd McCall, Dean Bailey, Jacob Marion Seaton, Archie Hoss, Charles W. Crouch, Kegley Graves, manager. Masengill: ‘‘Good night—sleep tight. Wilma D.: “I never drink. Spring saw a revival of outdoor sports. Quite a large number reported for spring football and much interest was shown, but the center of the stage of athletic interest was reclaimed by its ancient king, baseball. The squad reported as early as the weather permitted. The first of the season, although not without its victories, proved unsatisfctory to Coach, who did something to his team (no one knows what) that brought them out of the kinks and brought the season ' s games as a whole out of the red. TTie number of games played and trips taken was larger than ever. Those lettering for 1933 are: Sams, Billie Hunt, Seaton, McCall, A. Hoss, Chambers, Nicely, Bailey, Shull, Kilday, Taylor, Miller, and Crouch, manager. The season as whole this year was probably the best athletic year in the college ' s history. The amount of games played, the number won, the number of students going out, the backing for teams by the student body, the confidence, en¬ thusiasm, and spirit of the school and the teams all prove this statement and make the outlook for the future bright. INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS Girls’ athletics have been very successful this year with more than 300 entries. The heads of various sports were Virginia McCorkle, Norene Mitchell, Nell Keys, Mabel Arrants, Wilma Dean Sherrod, and Ruth Myers. The winners in the tournaments were: ping-pong. Ruby Vestal; vol¬ ley ball, freshmen; basketball, sophomores and seniors; foul shooting, Hannah W. Masengill, Wilma Dean Sherrod, Isa Lee Sherrod, Martha Foster; tryouts, Lucy Keys, Pauline Bailey, Verna Bacon, Martha Foster; croquet, Evelyn McCray; horseshoes, Margaret Deakins; golf, Sara Har- villle; baseball, freshmen and seniors; tennis, Josephine Cloninger (singles), Isa Lee and Wilma Dean Sherrod (doubles). The awards for the year are: T. C. monogram, Martha Foster, Pauline Bailey, Verna Bacon, Beulah Yoakum, Hazel Delozier, Pauline Webb, Hannah W. Massengill, Minnie Bray, Eva Bray; “T sweater, Virginia McCorkle, Ruth Myers, Nell Keys, Josephine Davidson, Alyne Smelcer, Wilma Dean Sherrod. “T blanket, Sara Harville, Norene Mitchell, Mabel Arrants, Isa Lee Sherrod.
