Property of Archives of Appal chu East Tennessee State University - i Z M - • 0 i Jflomimrii In presenting this issue of The Chalk Line, the Senior class is exer¬ cising a time-honored privilege which allows the graduating class to pub¬ lish annually an issue of the college paper which is distinctively and indi¬ vidually theirs. It is altogether appropriate that they should do so; it is their final opportunity to express their appreciation of the things Teachers College has done for them, and pay their respect to, and voice their love for, an institution whose memory they shall always revere. As you turn these pages, you will smile with them, sorrow with them, enter into their sports with their zest and enthusiasm, live with them their college years; you will feel the force and charm of their personality on every page; it is as though you were speaking to the real, living, pulsating Senior class of ’34. This is their day, their issue of The Chalk Line; it is they who are speaking, bidding farewell to Teachers College, being now ready to fare forth upon the storm-tossed sea of business adventure. And may the spirit and teachings of their Alma Mater go with them thruout a happy and successful life! —Ennis H. Posey.

Last fall the Teachers put a football team on the field that surprised the most loyal supporters. They not only played the hardest schedule a T. C. gridiron team ever encountered but turned in the best rec¬ ord of any team to represent the college. In meeting three S. I. A. A. teams, five Smoky Mountain Conference teams, and one from the Little Seven in North Carolina, the Teachers met and defeated some of the leading institutions of this region. Of the nine games played, T. C. had the enviable record of six games won, two ties, and one heart-breaking defeat to cost them the conference championship. Carson-Newman had the distinction of being the only team to turn the trick. Coach J. G. McMurray, in his second season with the Teachers, also turned out two all-con¬ ference players in Dean Baily, halfback, and Ed¬ mond Bull” Congdon, tackle. Pryor Hunt and Lynn Massengill were given berths on the sec¬ ond all-conference team, and several were given honorable mention. The past season saw the return of Milligan to the T. C. schedule. T. C. took them for a 19-0 ride to assure them of second place in conference standing. Now that you know something of the past sea¬ son you must hear of the coming schedule and prospects for a more powerful team than ever. Of the eighteen lettermen last fall, fourteen will return to competition in ’34. Captain Pryor Hunt, Bill Anderson, Albert Boyer, Bernice Burleson, ' Charles Miller, and Clyde Bales will be available for backfield duty. These stellar performers of 1933 will sparkle even brighter in the coming sea¬ son. Led by “Bull” Congdon, Lynn Massengill, Clyde Wayman, Nelce Taylor, Junior Parsley, Eu¬ gene Peters, and Lawrence Miller, the line will i have a sound nucleus around which to build a great forward wall. Numerous high school stars have signified their intention of enrolling at T. C. this fall to make them a most dangerous contend¬ er for the conference honors in 1934.

June 8, 1934 THE CHALK LINE 25 BASKETBALL SQUAD ’34 BASKETBALL With the coming of the basketball season the Teachers again were in the spotlight. Seven let- termen were on the squad which made it a dan¬ gerous contender for the basketball crown. The Teachers met every team in the conference at least once. Cumberland was the only team to be played only one game. A total of nineteen games were played with fifteen being with conference teams, which was the greatest number played by a Smoky Mountain team. After battling all kinds of odds and bad breaks, the Teachers pulled in home in second place to again lose a championship by a small margin. Eight members of the squad won their letters and five were given berths on all conference teams or honorable mention. Dean Bailey, Jake Seaton, Bud McCall, Wayland Crouch, Lynn Massengill, Archie Hoss, Earl Nidiffer, and John Oakes stood out among the basketball performers. Only Bailey, Seaton and Nidiffer will be missing when the next campaign comes. With the five returning letter- men the Teachers are expecting several promis¬ ing freshmen to carry on as the basketballers have in the past.

C. baseball team took the practice field after a de¬ layed start with prospects for a championship brighter than the football or basketball teams. Once the practice got under way the team began to show real class. Carson-Newman defeated the Teachers in T. C s first games, a duble-header at Jefferson City. A few days later T. C. trimmed the Eagles 18-0 and 3-0 and then kept up the good work the rest of the season. Maryville was the only other team to score a victory over the 1934 baseball cham¬ pions of the Smoky Mountain conference. For that one defeat the Johnson City institution handed Maryville three straight setbacks, scor¬ ing not less than eleven runs and as many as twenty-three. The team turned in the impressive record of ten victories and three defeats. In winning the championship the Teachers presented one of the most powerful teams the Appalachian region has ever seen a college put on the field. They possessed everything a great ball team should. They had hitting, pitching, and fielding. Nearly every man on the club, includ¬ ing the pitchers, was batting over the .300 mark. Twelve men completed the season as letter- men. Those winning the coveted honor were: Seaton, Bailey, Acuff, Thompson, McCall, Hoss, Byrd, Shull, Chambers, Taylor, Todd and Sams.

John Oakes and Edly Rogers were the returning veterans. Several new men began to show form and be¬ fore the season was well under way the team was among the leaders of this section. To go with the lettermen were Shelton, Sams, and Clark. These five men carried the team through a suc¬ cessful campaign against the toughest tennis schedule the college has had. The feature of the tennis season was a seven- day trip, taking the team to T. P. I., Murfrees¬ boro, Cumberland, Sewanee, Chattanooga and Maryville. INTRAMURAL ACTIVITIES The Intramural Department has closed one of its most successful seasons in that its pro¬ gram has been more varied, and more girls have participated in the events than ever before. The year’s program was carefully planned and carried out by: Virginia McCorkle, man¬ ager; Wilma Dean Sherrod, assistant manager; and Hannah Worley Massengill, Beatrice Earnest, Evelyn McCray, Mary Lee Carrier, Betty Bristol, Alyne Smelcer, Lillian Jones, and Bernice Hodge, acting as Heads of Sports. The winners in the various tournaments were: Volleyball, Freshmen; Basketball, Sophomores; Baseball, Freshmen; Foul Shooting, Wilma Dean Sherrod, Hannah Worley Massengill, Lillian Jones, and Virginia Boyd; Ping Pong, Ann Bryant and Nancy Hale.

At its regular meetings every other Monday evening in the dormitory, the boys have enjoyed many varied types of pro¬ grams. In addition to the numbers given by the boys themselves, we have had many interesting numbers given by visitors, to whom we are very grateful. Some of the outstanding features were: A lecture demonstration on etiquette by Mrs. Earnest; a demonstration on proper clothing by Hannah ' s; pictures of our football game with Maryville, and speeches by Professors Rogers and Wilson.

June 8, 1934 THE CHALK LINE 29 HOME ECONOMICS CLUB The Home Economics Club, as a part of its year ' s work, sponsored the establishment of a Home Management House on the campus. The surroundings of the Home Management House are ideal for any home—made picturesque by its shrubs and flowers planted by the college land¬ scape gardener. Due to Dr. Sherrod ' s forethought and man¬ agement the home was furnished without any outside financial aid. It was through the coopera¬ tion of the girls making it their home, and the efficient supervision of Mrs. Earnest of the Home Economics Department that such a practical course in home-making could be added to the cur¬ riculum. The girls are now working under a schedule similar to the ones used in all Home Management Houses. The work is so divided that each girl has the opportunity to get experience in each phase of home work. Their schedule follows: I. Hostess. 1. Responsible for proper carrying out of all household plans. 2. Make out menus for four days and post in kitchen for cook. 3. Confer with cook about menus and assist cook if necessary. 4. Serves main dish at table. 5. Looks after marketing. 6. Pay household bills. 7. Keep itemized account of all money paid out under definite headings. 8. Any supplies left over at end of week will be sold to the new hostess for the next week. II. Housekeeper. 1. Looks after laundry. 2. Cleans house (girls responsible for own bedroom). III. Cook. 1. Prepare all meals. 2. Go to living room just before meal is an¬ nounced. 3. Eats at opposite end of table from hostess and helps serve. 4. Cleans kitchen. 5. Keeps record of time to prepare meal. IV. Waitress. 1. Announce meal. 2. Prepare table. 3. Prepare breakfast cereals and salads. 4. See that everything is in readiness before meal is announced. 5. Remove dishes and serve courses. 6. Washes all glasses, china and silver. The cook and waitress arise at 7:00 or 7:30 according to family schedule for day. If the fam¬ ily has classes at 8:30 breakfast is over at 8:00. The group conference or family council is held with Mrs. Earnest at stated intervals. At these conferences family relationship, budgets, and ob¬ jectives for work are discussed. One of their requirements is to plan, prepare, and serve at least one dinner a week to guests. Those living in the home during the year 1933-34 were: Misses Alyne Smelcer, Juanita Graves, Fern Nicely, Frances Shoun, Mary Stuart Farrar, Hattie Shupe, Marian Bristol, and Han¬ nah Worley Massengill. The final social function of the Club was a beautifully planned tea given at the Home Man¬ agement House honoring the club officers, Mis¬ ses Alyne Smelcer, president; Frances Shoun, vice-president; Mary Stuart Farrar, secretary; Murril Laughead, treasurer. ALL-STUDENT RECEPTION On April 30 there was inaugurated in our school an All-Student Reception. Standing in the receiving line were all officers of the Student Body, classes, clubs, and societies. We were de¬ lighted to have as our guest of honor at this re¬ ception the Honorable Governor Hill McAlister and Mrs. McAlister. Liz Shearer: “I ' m nobody ' s fool, she de¬ clared.

We started off with a bang during rush week by having an informal tea in our club room and a tea dance in the dormitory. Twenty new members were admitted, making a total en¬ rollment of forty-five. The new Sapphonians were entertained with a cootie party. During the fall quarter the big event was the Barn Warmin ' , sponsored by the Sapphonians and participated in by every organization on the cam¬ pus. It was a very colorful and gala affair. Hazel Anderson, a Senior and president of the Sapphon¬ ians, was elected Queen. The attendants to the Queen were Elizabeth Liles, Nona McCorkle, Nell Cate, and Mary Lee Carrier. The Sapphonians plan to make the Barn Warmin ' an annual affair. The fall house party was at Love ' s cabin on the Watauga River, with Dr. and Mrs. Field as chaperones. In the spring we went to tJnaka Springs for the week-end; Mr. and Mrs. Hodge Mathes and Mr. Evans were the chaperones. At the Pi Sigma Carnival in the spring quar¬ ter, Genevieve Williams, vice-president of the Sapphonians, was elected Queen of the Carnival. A beautifully planned tea dance was tendered the Pi Sigmas in early May. It was given in the reception room of the girls ' dormitory which had been lavishly decorated with roses, gladioli, and valley lillies. The color scheme of green and white was carried out in the salad course that was served. During the year the literary programs have consisted of reviews and criticisms of the best plays of 1932-33, such as “The Late Christopher Bean, “Alien Corn, “Design for Living, “Bi¬ ography, “When Ladies Meet, “One Sunday Afternoon, “Dinner At Eight, and others. Sapphonians extend to the four Seniors of the society wishes for the best of happiness and suc¬ cess as they leave the Teachers College. Those graduating are Hazel Anderson, Fern Nicely, Jonnie Post, and Ruth Rutledge. FANTASY Slowly creeping thru the stillness, Incensed stillness, Floats a sighing, misty sound Exotic as the swaying lilies, Chinese lilies, Nodding from their garden mound. Thru the dying twilight ' s greyness, Lulling greyness, Wafts a clearer, gayer strain That sings of tiny fairies dancing, Strangely dancing, In the perfumed springtime rain. Clouds are parting, and the starlight, Crystal starlight, Brings a mystic melody From violins in a pale garden, Ghost-like garden, Of my springtime reverie. —Ennis H. Posey. GRADUATION DAY It ' s Graduation Day at last, The time we ' ve long looked forward to, Forgotten are the hardships past, Once more we ' ll start in life anew. It is with sorrow that we part, But duty calls and we must heed. Our friends we leave with aching heart Not knowing where our paths may lead . The friends we ' ve made we ' ll not forget, Though bring the morrow what it may, We say goodbye with deep regret As each one goes his separate way. Who knows what heights we yet may scale? There is a saying full of truth, That there is no such word as FAIL, Found in the “Lexicon of youth. To win success does not imply That wealth alone must be our aim. There ' s many a heartache, tear, and sigh, Along the road that leads to Fame. If we but do from day to day, (Not dreaming of great things to do) The simple tasks that come our way, We ' ll find at last our dreams come true. For as God notes the sparrow ' s fall, No acts of ours unheeded go. And be the harvest great or small, We always reap just what we sow. To each and all, we say goodbye, Where ' er you go, where ' er you be, Do not forget the days gone by, And all they ' ve meant at S. T. C. —Thomas Dugger. Virginia ' s Father: “I ' ll teach you to kiss my daughter. Jacob Seaton: “Too late, old man, I ' ve learned already. Gertrude Hickey: “So you think you know as much as Dr. Fields, do you? How is that? Mary Laws: “Well, he himself said that it was impossible to teach me anything. Mrs. Grindstaff: “Robert, wash your hands before you start to school. Bob: “It ' s no use because I never raise them in class. “Did you get the right answer in physics? Basil Hyder: “No. “How far were you from the right answer. Basil Hyder: “Five seats. Miss Matthews: “Last night I dreamed I was in Heaven. Myrtle Perkins: “Did you see me there? Miss Matthews: “Yes, then I knew I was dreaming. 34 THE CHALK LINE June 8, 1934 June 8, 1934 THE CHALK LINE 35 OPERETTA DANIEL BOONE GLEE CLUB HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR The year just completed has been one of the most successful in the history of the Glee Club. Under the capable direction of Prof. Norris, the Glee Club enjoyed various concerts, trips, and outings. Concerts were given in Rogersville, Eliz¬ abethan, and Johnson City; the most outstanding being the Christmas concert given at the Teach¬ ers College on December 8. The Grasshopper, a humorous tragical tale, aroused a great deal of interest and enthusiasm in local circles, and was performed several times at various luncheon clubs. The year ' s work culminated in the outstand¬ ing and artistic performance of Daniel Boone, a romantic light opera in three acts. The leads, beautifully rendered by Edly Rogers as Daniel Boone, and Elizabeth Womack as his daughter, Jemima Boone, were aided by an excellent cast. The music, dancing, lighting effects and scenery were beautiful and united to make this operetta one of the best in several years here at the Teach¬ ers College. GLEE CLUB OFFICERS: President........Hope Davis Secretary.......Hazel Anderson Reporter...Lucille Johnson ■■ 36 THE CHALK LINE June 8, 1934 DEBATE CLUB WINS NATIONAL RECOGNITION T. C. Forensic Squad Completes Most Successful Season The Teachers College Debating teams have just completed what we term the most successful season in the college history, by attending the Na¬ tional Convention of the Pi Kappa Delta in Lex¬ ington, Kentucky, where our contestants met with the delegates from one hundred and thirty- eight colleges from forty of the states. Eight representatives from Teachers College attended the convention. They were: Evangeline Walker and Irene Crawford, girls ' debating team; John Oakes and Beverly Burbage, boys ' debating; Ruth Carrier, orator; Edley Rogers, orator; Eliz¬ abeth Grigsby, extempore speaker, and R. B. Cox, coach. Carrier and Rogers, orators, spoke through three rounds in oratorical contests, as did Grigs¬ by in extempore, each competing and rating against the best speakers in the nation. Each of these three speakers made records to be credited, thus adding to the forensic honors attributed to the entire Teachers College delegation. Both boys ' and girls ' debating team succeeded in reaching the fifth round of debating contests. The boys claimed one more victory than the girls. The team formed by Walker and Crawford showed that they had a “plenty good line since they have to their credit a victory over Pittsburg, Kansas Teachers, and one over Iowa State. More espe¬ cially are we proud of the victory over the Kan¬ sas women as they suffered no other defeat un¬ til the seventh round, the semi-finals. Then, here ' s to Oakes and Burbage, who came through with a 3-2 record in their five rounds. Their victories were over Illinois, Ohio, and Michigan State; while their defeats came from Kalamazoo, Mich., and Stephens Point, Wis¬ consin. Further credit is due this team of ours, Oakes plus Burbage, because they are Sophomore and Freshman and the majority of the teams met were entirely upper classmen. In fact, Bur¬ bage found himself almost out of Freshman ter¬ ritory at the convention. Teachers College may well be proud of the record made by these four students, Oakes, Bur¬ bage, Crawford and Walker. They have met with and defeated some of the nation ' s best debating teams and have gathered for us honors which place Teachers College in a conspicuous place on the “national Forensic map. By their defeating such teams as Pittsburg and Michigan State, they have shown that “small town and “Southern college abilities can rate against the larger schools from the states who rank much higher educa¬ tionally than we. The eighth member of our delegation stood in for his share of the honors at the convention. Coach Cox acted, along with other coaches, as judge in different types of forensic contests. As the teams were eliminated the less desirable judges were also eliminated. It is then, to our col¬ lege, a source of pride to know that our Coach was asked to judge in the finals of both debating and oratory, ' because these honors are usually given only to coaches of senior or charter chap¬ ters in the National Society. We are looking forward to more honors from the Provincial Convention at Franklin, Indiana, in 1935. The students who represented T. C. at Lex¬ ington are eligible to Pi Kappa Delta member¬ ship. Other students who took part in Forensic contests and who are eligible to T. K. A. are Al- meda Converse, David Broyles, and Glen Dale. Membership in Pi Kappa Delta is one of the high¬ est honors given by the school as T. K. A. is the only national organization to which students are eligible. Virginia Ruth Martin: “What is the cure for love at first sight? Margaret Brabson: “Second sight. June O ' Dell: “What caused you to be so long with my eggs? Cecil Ford: “Pardon the delay, but they were mislaid. Mr. Brown: “What kind of birds do best in captivity? Dean Bailey: “Jailbirds. Words of our dear professors remind us We can use as big as they; And departing leave behind us People wondering what we say. A school annual ' s a great invention; The school gets all the fame, The printer gets all the money, The staff gets all the blame. City Directory Man: “How many are there in your family? Doc Wheeler: “Six. Me, the old lady, the two kids, the cow, and the cat. City Directory Man:: “And what are the pol¬ itics of your family? Doc Wheeler: “Mixed. I ' m a Democrat, the old lady ' s a Republican, the kids are wet, the cow ' s dry, and the cat ' s a Communist.
