26 THE CHALK LINE 1936 € Club The T Club has just completed the most successful year of its history, with Clyde Wayman serving as president, and Lloyd Thornton as secretary. Thirteen new members were initiated into the club this year, bringing the grand total of enrolled members to thirty-five. The new members were Davis, Brainard, H. Sherrod, C. Sher¬ rod, Cash, Willis, Glover, Ryburn, McKinney, Dyer, Brooks, A. Congdon, and Garland. The club will lose Wayman, Thornton, Oakes, Chambers, Brooks, McKinney, Shelton, Burleson, Byrd, and Willis, most of them through graduation; however, with the new men showing an active interest, the club is looking forward to another successful year during 1936-1937. The T men scored the biggest hit of the college year when they sponsored the first T Club dance ever given, in the college gymnasium, on Tuesday, May 12. At this outstanding social affair the following Teachers College superlatives were elected: Miss Teachers College, Mary Agnes Donnelly; Bachelor of Ugliness, John Oakes; Most Beautiful Girl, Mary Grigsby; Most Handsome Boy, M. F. Parsley, Jr.; Most Popular Girl, Adelaide Carrier, Most Studious Per¬ son, Ruth Carrier; Best All-round Athlete, Paul Kildav; Courtin’est Couple, Mary Agnes Donnelly and Bill Anderson.

1936 THE CHALK LINE 25 Crack The track season was opened by the Boone-Teachers meet on the new stadium track. B. Burleson, Southerland, Lucas,, Davis, Parsley, and Jamison proved to be a nemesis for the well-trained North Carolina team. Each man accounted for his number of points plus a few extra ones. New men, Brown, Boring, Field, Scott, Miller, Sabin, Smallwood, and Evans, fell into line for second and third places in spite of the fact that the 1936 track season was their first. On May 2, Coach McMurray took Jamison, Lucas, Brown, Edmonds, and Boring to the Conference track meet at Lincoln Memorial University at Harrogate. Jamison, outstanding dash man, confirmed the general opinion that he would rate a high winner in spite of the fact that he had lost form due to a two year “lay off”. He tied Woods of Milligan for high scoring honors; each took thirteen points. Lucas, Brown, and Edmonds also took honors, adding to the total points for the Buccaneers. At the Milligan-Teachers meet on the Teachers College field, May 5, almost every track aspirant on the Buccaneer team got his chance to compete. Lucas, Edmonds, and Jamison led the field with five first places, while Kitts and Brown were responsible for three seconds. Third places were taken by Field, Burleson, Scott, and A. Boyer.
