24 THE CHALK LINE June 8, 1934 FOOTBALL SQUAD ’33-’34 FOOTBALL The Teachers are winding up their most suc¬ cessful year in the field of athletics. 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.
