She has done much to merit the praise of the muses in athletics, in the class- room and in her whole-heartcd support of college activities; but it is for herself that we love her, for her happy dispo- sition and for that lively wit which flashes out when least expected. Pog” finishes in June, after which she vaguely hints at imparting some of her knowledge to the youth of old Richmond. What ever be her future, “Pog” leaves an enviable past in her college record, and though her place will be hard to fill, she takes the best wishes of her class with her. 26 0 -v r ifcljnirtat lEpia dettpral i$m C ___________________________H.

He has won distinction, while in our midst, both in the athletic and forensic fields. On the grid- iron he is known for speed, while as captain of the “ basket- ccrs” he led the Wasps” to victory on February 22. With the graduation of Bailey the “Wasps” lose a good leader, he being the only three-letter man of his class. He was president of his Literary Society the second quarter of his senior year. 27 r President Freshman Class: Glee Club, ’21, '22; Business Manager Martha Mirror, ’22; Assistant Business Manager Sphinx, ’23; Varsity Basket-ball, '23, ’24; Associate Editor Sphinx, ’24. RUTH BEERY Washingtonian Lewisburc, West Vircinia Ruth’s college career from the very beginning has been a round of honors and distinctions in a varied field of activities. She has stood as leader of her class—she engineered the Martha Mirror through one year of finance -has been connected with the Sphinx for two years as Associate Editor. Then Ruth is athletic— she is musical, she is witty and jolly with her Puddle- Jumper. Is it any wonder that Ruth is always the center of a host of friends? And on bidding her class good-bye she will leave one behind who will wander over the campus as he “who treads alone some banquet-hall deserted.” 28 T. K.

Nat ca ne to us from Randolph-Macon Academy in the fall of 1920, and since that time the walls of “Her- mes” have echoed in response to his oratory. Both his opponents here and in nearby institutions have found it necessary to listen to his arguments and respect his way of getting them told. We can do nothing less than predict a big success for him in the missionary fields of Africa, where he expects to render his life’s work. 29 Meadow View, Virginia Manager Baseball, ’23; Member Football Squad, ’23; Monogram Club, ’23, ’24; Civics Club, ’23, '24; Booster Club, ’24; Washington County Club; President Student Body, ’24; President Know-the-World Club; Manager Hand Book, '24; Business Manager Sphinx, 24. After a little roam westward, where Dan” visited the wheat fields of Kansas and took an active part with the cowboys on the prairies of Colorado, he returned to enter his sophomore year with the class of '24, and since that time has been patiently on the watch for the train that will bring the beautiful little “maid eastward. During his senior year his fellows have given him two of the greatest honors a young man may receive at Emory and Henry—President of the Student Body and Business Manager of the Sphinx. 30 DAVID PRESTON DAVIS Calliopean McClure, Vircinia Glee Club, '22, '23, '24; Manager Glee Club, '24; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, '23, '24; Football Squad, '23, '24; Cosmopolian Club, '24; Greenfield Club, '24; Doni-I- Ncckcr Club, '24; Vice-President Senior Class; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. In “Dimple” Davis one has the combination of a vocalist of no mean ability, a hard-working football player, a prominent “Y” worker, a man that believes in having a good time—and with all this, a good student. Davis is a rare combination of a college man; so rare, in fact, that his appearance with the Glee Club throughout this section is looked forward to by the farmers as an event equal in importance to corn-planting time. For naive genius and hard work, Davis has no equal. 31 HOBART M. EARMAN Hermesian Keezletown, Vircinia Honor Roll, ’23: Secretary-Treasurer Life Service Band: Secretary-Treasurer Cosmopolian Club; Secre- tary-Treasurer Hermesian Literary Society; Member Booster Club; Member Civics Club; Manager Football. '24; President Y. M. C. A.; Member Student Council, '24; President French Club, '24; Manager Junior Class Basket-ball, '24; President Single Standard League: Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. “Tubby,” as he is known to all his classmates, is a sincere, hard-working student and a leader in all college activities. To those who have the privilege of hearing his oratory in the Hermesian Literary Society, Earman is the height of a “Chesterficldian man of letters and persuasion. If success can be won by hard, consistent effort, one predicts that Tubby” will rise above the horizon clad in bishopric regalia before many years pass. 32 ANNIE LEE FALIN Washingtonian Duffield, Virginia Captain Varsity Basket-ball Team, ’23: Girls’ Council, ’24: Honor Roll, ’23: Tennis Club, ’23; Presi- dent Lee County Club, ’24; Honorary Member of Hcr- mesian Society. Annie Lee entered the junior class at Emory in ’22, ’23. She received her high school diploma from the Lee County Industrial School and her freshman and sopho- more work was completed at Martha Washington Col- lege. She came to Emory with prospects of becoming a basket-ball star and has more than fulfilled the expec- tations of the most optimistic by being elected captain of the team for two years. She is one of our most level- headed members and is always among the highest graders. Her hobby is mathematics, which is shown by the number of courses she has passed under the instruction of Dr. Miller. May Annie achieve success in life as she has in college. VIRGINIA FOLTZ Euterpean Wytheville, Virginia Member Virginia Club, '21, ’22; Harmony Club, ’21, ’22; Smyth-Wythe Club, ’23; French Club, ’24. One finds her hard to know at first, but not easy to forget. Virginia is supposedly quiet, yet she contra- dicts this idea when with a crowd of girls. She is very witty and original, has climbed to great heights and has never known the dread of the seventy-five line work. As a teacher we feel sure that Virginia will make good, and it is with pride that we can speak of her as our class- mate. 34 R. C. FORRESTER Calliopean Hubbard Springs, Vircinia Honor Roll, ’19, '20, ’21; President Calliopean Society; Secretary-Treasurer Inter-High School Decla- mation Contest; Class Basket-ball, ’19, '20, ’21, ’24. Out of the Appalachian hills this stern “lad” came to Emory and Henry to seek an education. By the cold figures of mathematics, it is said that the day he stepped f om number 12, and made his appearance on the campus, was the warmest day of the year. His outstanding characteristic has been to stand afar and view the in- novation of co-cds. Pup has given much attention to forensic work and his shrill voice has echoed many times under the shrine of Calliope. May the field of education extend to him a hand of welcome. 35 EMILY NELL GRAYBEAL Euterpean Damascus, Virginia Member German Club, 24; Honorary Member Calliopean Society. Very few people may be called dependable. No one doubts this quality being present in Nell, an average student, and yet—so many characteristics above the average—pretty, attractive, capable and unselfish. She is a willing worker and has been a great help in the liter- ary society. We have all learned to love Nell these two years she has been with us. Now in bidding farewell, the class wishes her a happy future, which she so well deserves. 36 'ru,. BRIAN H. GREENE Hermesian Gurryvii.le, Georgia Leader Life Service Band, ’24; Chairman Social Service Committee of the Y.; Vice-President Hermesian Literary Society, ’23; Member Georgia Club; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. This cracker from the sand hills of Georgia, came to us from South Georgia College in the fall of '22, and since that time he has busied himself relieving Emory and Henry students of their hard earned “shekels,” in the meanwhile, exemplifying the justification of a much talked of contingent fee.” Greene has found most of his service in the Y. M. C. A., and has been an active member of his literary society. 37 From out of everywhere into now Lucile comes lightly tripping, heeding neither time nor place nor cares. Joining the class of ’24, after a year at Maryville and another at Martha Washington, she rose rapidly in popularity, a beaming sense of humor and a never-ruffled temperament, she numbers her friends by her acquaint- ances. The form is too dry and the space is too limited to tell you everything about her, but every heart is an abode for her and some she molds like clay at will. Knowing no tempest she departs from these classic halls cherished and envied by all. 38 The “Cardinal contributed his share toward making the “world safe for Democracy” by casting his lot with the Allied Powers and incidentally enlisting in the Emory and Henry unit of S. A. T. C. After sounding the death knell of Prussianism, “Cardinal” turned his efforts to- wards ministerial duties. Just as Hiram Johnson and “Pat” Harrison furnish oratorical entertainment in Congress, so does Cardinal” Hillman make the sacred halls of Hermes vibrate with his melodious voice. But all in all, Hillman is a hardworking, aggressive young ministerial student. 39 Rather a traveler is Anne. With a two-year course from Martha Washington to her credit she went to Skid- more College and after acquiring a sufficient supply of Northern culture there in one year she came back to the Sunny South. Hop” is dependable, capable of responsibility and ever ready to help when the occasion arises. She is one of the hardest workers on the campus and will fully deserve a diploma. The class of ’24 wishes her well in all that she undertakes. 40 MRS. EDGAR WILLIAM HURT Honaker, Virginia Honors received at Hiwassee: Scholarship Medal: Second honor: Castilian Literary Society: Secretary Castilian Society; Vice-President Castilian Society, 1918: President Freshman Class, 1917. Honors received at Emory and Henry, 1919 and 1924: Monitor Senior Class; Member Russell County Club. The class of ’24 was greatly enriched in it’s last year by the advent of another Co-Ed, who, very small, towers above all others in the scholarship. She is a zealous supporter of all college activities, an active worker in the Literary Sccicty, a good sport, and above every- thing else, a friend. She will go out from Emory and Henry with the love and esteem of her classmates. 41 GEORGE BUCHANAN HUTTON Calliopean Glade Spring, Virginia Class Basket-ball. ’23; Member Washington County Club, ’24; Inter-collegiate Debate, ’23; T. K. A., ’23; Member Y. M. C. A.; Public Debate, ’23; President Calliopean Society, ’23; Class Baseball, ’22, ’23, 24; Greenfield Club; Honor Roll, ’23; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. Out of the hills of Washington County “Hutton” has continued his daily journey in search for knowledge. His stay in our midst has been altogether pleasant, and his forensic work has been of outstanding merit. For this work he has won for himself the much loved T. K. A. key. His greatest weakness has been the lack of appreciation for good roads and taxation, but he has found it hard to withstand the onslaught of his North Carolina friends in their ardent support of the above mentioned measures. 42 KATHLEEN KANE Princeton, West Virginia At Hiwasscc College: Vice-President Philomathesian Society, '21; President Philomathcsian Society, ’22; Member West Virginia Club. At Emory and Henry: Member West Virginia Club: Member French Club: Secretary Girls’ Council. Hiwasscc College claims the honor of having Kath’een as one of her graduates. While in that institution of learning she won high honors in the literary work and also graduated in Music. Kathleen has attained even more while she has been at Emory, and the college boasts that it can send out such a girl as a representative. She is locking forward to journalism, and we predict for her a great future. 43 CHARLES ABNEY KELLY Calliopean Oceana, West Vircinia Scholarship Freshman Year; Monitor, '21; Captain Junior Varsity Football, ’22, '23; Secretary Senior Class; Captain Senior Class Basket-ball; Class Baseball, ’23, Honor Roll, ’21, ’23; Member German Club; Member West Virginia. The West Virginia snaker” made his acquaintance on the campus back in the prehistoric days of the “prep ” school, and has continued his education down to the present. Kelly has found two fields of interest while on the campus—first, in the halls of Calliope, and second, in the field of athletics. Much of his “spare” time has been spent in the Chemical Lab., and we predict, after a brief stay of four years in the medical school, Oceana will have in her midst a splendid physician. 41 VIRGIL LEONIDES KELLY Calliopean Oceana, West Vircinia Scholarship Freshman Year: Monitor, '21, ’22, ’23; Secretary Calliope Literary Society; Class Baseball, ’23; Class Basket-ball, ’23; Class Swimming Team Captain, ’23. ’’Lonnie,’’ has the distinction of being the shortest member of his class, but that worries him not a little, for he has proven himself a man when hold of a man’s job. To this will many of his opponents testify who have been downed by the little “Wasp” on the gridiron. Kelly has also made his mark in the Literary Society, and so his friends may expect many interesting lectures from the little physician after his return from the Uni- versity of Virginia. 45 “Stewed Apples Littreal, as he is known at the Weaver beanery,” is a native of our suburb. Meadow View, and a product of Green Field High. While with us he has won our affection and respect. It is said that he knows more about math, and physics than Dr. Miller and Einstein combiner!. We have no hesitation in pre- dicting a future place for him in the electrical world that can only be approached by men of the type of a Steinmetz or an Edison. 46 GLADYS LYON Meadow View, Virginia Of all the co-cds, Gladys alone can boast of the fact that she has acquired all of her education within the walls of Emory and Henry. Intellectually, she is above the average and this, together with hard work, has brought high grades for her. Gladys is quite prominent in religious work. She is always smiling and always ready to help those less fortunate than she. We expect great things of her in the future. 47 v FRANCIS MILLER MATTHEWS Hermesian Gai.latin, Tennessee Honor Roll, ’21, ’22, ’23; Class Basket-ball; Class Baseball; Member Junior Varsity Football team, '23; Member Varsity Football Squad, '23; Varsity Basket- ball Squad, '23; Vice-President Civics Club, ’23; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Tennis Club: President Hermesian Society; President Inter-High School Declamation Contest,'24; President Single Standard League; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. In the form of R. O.” Matthews, Sunny” Ten- nessee has sent forth one of its most distinguished young citizens to face “the classic halls and campus green” of Emory and Henry. R. O. ” has distinguished himself as a debator, a student, and a member of the Varsity football squad. After leaving us Matthews intends to set Tennessee on fire with his oratory. His best friends expect ere long to see the mantle of “Bob” Taylor fall upon his capable shoulders. 8 J. B. McKEE Calliopean Saltviixe, Virginia Varsity Football. '23, ’24: Monogram Club; Smyth- WythcClub; French Club; Honor Roll,'23: Prc-Mcdical Club. “John B. ” came to us from V. P. I. and in his sojourn with us has won honors, both in the class rooms and upon the gridiron. His ready and cheerful philosophy has made him a welcome addition to the class. Of late he has been a frequent visitor at the Fulton House and certain rumors insist that after four years at John Hopkins, he, with a certain member of his class, will journey to Brazil to bring physical and spritual relief to suffering humanity. •19 I MARY GRACE MIMS Elizabethton, Tennessee Scholarship Student to Milligan College; Member Student Council at Milligan; Critic Literary Society; Vice-President Philomathcan Society. The great men of Rome and Athens claimed as a sign of wisdom, a cairn and quiet demeanor. They claimed aright, were their philosophy to be expressed in terms of unresponsive stone; but we to-day are finding in Grace a heart of kindness and personality altogether lovable, for times have changed and the stone age has passed. It has been rumoured that Mary Grace has a talent for art and it is a known fact that she has excelled in the litcrarics. She is planning to expound knowledge next year and we wish her great success in her career. 50 HELEN WINTON ORR Washingtonian Morristown, Tennessee Honor Roll, 21. 23: Varsity Basket-ball, ’23, ’24; Girls Student Council, '24; Tennessee Club; Honorary Member Cnlliopcan Society. Never have we met a more lovable nor a more at- tractive girl than Helen, for just listen: She’s a star guard, tennis shark, bubbles over with pep, has a magnetic personality, and has a quick and logical mind that cap- tures the grades. In the class-room and out she is an all-’round sport and a true pal. Helen is one of those girls who is in love with the world, and her sweet manner wins for her the love of all; but those who know her best love her best. We arc sure her future will be as full of happiness and success as her college course has been. 51 i LOIS MILLER PAINTER Radford, Virginia Member French Club; College Orchestra; Member American Red Cross Life Saving Corps. This is Lois’ first and last year at Emory and Henry, and an enviable record she has made while here. She wasted no time in becoming acclimated, but went straight to the business of starting her grades in the right direction and set about making every student her friend. She has also excelled in swimming, being a member of the Red Cross Life Saving Corps. Among her other attributes is a musical talent and she occasionally “fiddles” away time very pleasantly for others. 52 No one believed that in Southwest Virginia such a place existed as Buchanan County until “Uncle Silas” Perkins arrived on the campus. Just what this paradoxical character—a teller of fish stories and a ministerial stu- dent—will develop into, one is loathe to prophecy. If it were not for his music and fish stories, his oratory would make him a bishop, but nevertheless the latter is due him. 53 Class Baseball, ’21, ’22, ’23, '24; Student Council, ’23; Dramatic Club, '22; Secretary-Treasurer Athletic Association, '23; Secretary Golf Club; Associate Editor Sphinx,'23; President Washington County Club; Mem- ber Booster Club; Member Civics Club; Member German Club; Member French Club; Dom-I-Necker; Editor- in-Chief Sphinx, '24. “Pidncy” is probably one of the best known men on the campus. In the class-room, in the dining-hall, and especially about on the campus when young ladies are nearby, Oscar can always be seen. In fact Pidncy” occupies a very unique position in all college activities. After leaving school Porterfield intends to lose from his toil-worn mind all the remembrances of his hard work during the past four years, and make preliminary prepar- ation to become president of the Santa Fc Railway. 54 GWYN BRANTLEY PRICE Calliopean West Jefferson, North Carolina Calliopean Improvement Medal; Corresponding Secretary Calliopean Society, '22; Public Debate De- claimed '22; Secretary Debate Council, '23; Treasurer Calliopean Society, '23; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, '23, '24; President Booster Club, '23: Public Debate Speaker, '23: Single Standard League; President Senior Class; As- sociate Editor Sphinx, '24; Editor College Hand Book; Student Council; German Club; Member Tar Heel Club; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. From The Land of the Sky there came to us the most loyal ‘‘Tarheel” of them all. Trinity College lost a good student, a brilliant orator, and a real “fellow, all because the climate of Durham did not agree with him. For this “lad,” from the beautiful “Sapphire Country, has won a place in the hearts of the student body and faculty that few have attained. Gwyn’s honors have been legion. In fact, he has been an of- ficer in almost every worth-while] organization on the campus. We are confident that he has a brilliant future and will be an honor always to his Alma Mater. 55 GLADYS ADELINE ROWLAND Euterpean Church Hill, Tennessee Secretary-Treasurer Tennessee Club; Glee Club, '21; Harmony Club; Sophomore Basket-ball Team, ’21; Member French Club, '24; Member German Club, '24. When the call to duty is sounded one may be per- fectly sure that Gladys Rowland of Church Hill, Tenn., will be there to play her part, whether in the class work, basket-ball or helping her friends. She is a consistent worker and her grades always average far above the safe margin. The teachers know when any work is assigned to Gladys that it will be done well and on time. Not only along the work line, but Gladys is ever ready to go out and lend support in athletics, and she can be counted on to be there with the ball at the right moment. Her sunny smile and even disposition make her the best of pals, and her personality will be missed when she goes from the student body to take up the teaching profession. 56 MRS. JULIA SIMPSON SHAEFER Harris, North Carolina Honors at Weaver College; Critic; Secretary and President of Euterpean Literary Society; Salutatorian in Senior Class. Honors at Emory and Henry: Secretary-Treasurer North Carolina Club. With two year’s preparation from Weaver College, Mrs. Shacfer saw fit to climb the heights to a higher education, and answered the call that Emory sent out. While in the former institution she held prominent po- sitions in the Literary Society, being at various times President, Secretary and Critic. Incidentally it may be mentioned she is numbered every month among those on the Honor Roll. With her friendly and cheerful manner, Mrs. Shaefcr will make friends where ever she goes. 57 GEORGE L. SMITH Calliopean Bostic, North Carolina President Tar-Heel Club: Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. Silent” Smith, came to us from Weaver College; is a loyal son of the “ Old North State to whom he de- lights to do honor. Schmidy,” as he is now called, has won for himself many loyal friends while here, even though his stay in our midst has been shorter than most members of his class. He has attained distinction in most part in the academic department. He heads the Tar-heel Club as its president, and we can easily foresee the day when one of North Carolina’s institutions of learning will have a capable leader. 58 Grace entered Martha Washington in the fall of 1920 as one of those seventy-five worthy members of the Freshman class, though later she wandered to Emory as the first Co-Ed. She has held a number of positions, and is one who can always be depended on to think through a question and determine the right course to pursue. She has been elected to the responsible position as president of the girls' council. But most of all we arc proud of her because she is secretary of the Virginia Volunteer Movement and she plans to go to China in July as a Missionary. All of her classmates send with her their heartiest wishes and know that she will be successful in her great work. 59 KATHARINE TILLY Bristol, Tennessee Varsity Basket-ball, ’23, '24; Honor Roll, ’23; Girls'Council.’23; Tennis Team,'23 ; Golf Club; Sphinx Staff, ’24. Katharine is a rather unusual combination of athletic, scholar and all-’round girl. She stars in most branches of athletics and stands without a peer in school work. Nor are her qualities thus limited, for she has that knack of making a friend of every one she meets. When her work here is completed she will carry the light of knowledge to Brazil from whence she cainc, and while her genial good-will and cheery presence will be missed on this campus, yet all join in giving her their heartiest wishes for a great success. 60 PAUL JACKSON VIALL Johnson City, Tennessee T. K. A.; Publicity; Sam Small Essay: Baseball Varsity; Williams Declamation Medal; President Booster Club; Varsity Football, '22, '23; Editor-in-Chief White Topper-. President Civics Club; Associate Editor Spminx, ’23; Monogram Club; Secretary Hermesian Society; Vice-President Student Body; President Tennessee Club. After a brief absence spent in the business world, “Peter J. returned to college and enrolled with the class of '24. Both his Alma Mater and the members of his class will long hold him in esteem, because of the services rendered in instigating a new form of endowment, which is based on the principles of Christian tithing. His role in college activities has been played in a four-fold manner—athletics, literary, journalistic, and academic. His popularity on the campus is second to none. On his graduation Sunny Tennessee” will receive an orator, and a man of ability. Wiklc is a quiet and studious type of a college man. He has never sought after the applause and worhsip of the multitude, but is satisfied with the feeling that he does his best in whatever he may undertake. His specialty has been in religious and literary work. He has found time to do some preaching occasionally in nearby towns, and Holston may well look forward to the day when a bishop’s robes shall grace his capable shoulders. 62 L. E. WILLIAMS Calliopean East Stone Gap, Virginia Varsity Baseball, ’20, ’21, ’22, ’24; Student Council, ’21; Civics Club, ’21, ’22, ’24; Booster Club, ’21, ’22, '24; Monogram Club; Secretary Calliopean Society, ’21, Treasurer, ’22; President, ’23; Secretary Y. M. C. A., ’22; Business Manager White Topper, ’24; German Club; Class Basket-ball, ’21, ’24; Wise County Club; Intercollegiate Debate, ’24. Although of small statue, “Rabbit has climbed high in collegiate attainments. On the diamond he is noted for speed, and in the class-room he is a steady, conscientious worker. He has also served Calliope in the capacity of President. After an absence of one year he returned to take up the many honors awaiting him. and the class of '24 was fortunate in adding him to its number. 6.3 fje Senior Class History When the rolls were called four years ago, all signs of militarism had dis- appeared from the campus, except a few tan shirts, and hob-nail shoes worn by a few upper-classmen, who had either seen the smoke of quivering guns at the front, in the camps, or in the S. A. and R. O. T. C. brigades. A few of us Freshmen had seen some of those things when we visited the college as “preps” from East Hall the year before. Under three presidents! Well, yes, both here and at the White House in the Capitol city. In the political world we remember how the war was terminated by the first, naval disarmament was begun by the second, and the Tea Pot un- covered by the third. In the collegiate world, under the first, we saw a great educator enter the ranks of the pastorate, and a college campus become quiet after the last call of the bugle—three months before our arrival. Under the second, a great Education Financial Campaign was successfully launched, and bishop timber returned to the ranks of the pastorate. Under the third, the Co-Education Legislation of the previous June became a reality. A native of our “eternal Holston hills,” a man who had risen quick and high in educational efficiency, a man who wandered o’er toward the sea for his education (which is the only handicap he has—but, out Alma Mater did not ask him as a high school ‘graduate to come within her halls!) and a man of sterling Christian character, returned to he near his native “Wise” County, and took the presidency of Emory and Henry College. Permit us to voice the sentiment about the new day which we believe cometh with new splendor. As we write these lines the winds of the winter are howling like they did at Elsinore, the ancient capitol of Denmark; and listen, fellow-class- mates, do you not hear the words of Horatio?— “But, look, the morn, in russet mantle clad, Walks o’er the dew of yon high eastern hill.” That dawn is of the Greater Emory and Henry, about which all students in the past have dreamed. Now it is a reality. In all college activities our classmates have played important roles. Interest in all types of athletic sports have increased, and tor the hrst time in the history of the institution wc have had a Co-Ed. Varsity Team, whose members received monograms. Six of the eight awarded were to seniors. Both Varsity Basket-ball teams were captained by seniors, Ann Falin, of Lee County, Virginia; and C. G. Bailey, of the West Virginia snakes. Forensic activity has held its place, and the number of Inter-collegiate De- bates have been more than doubled in the past four years. Eighty per cent, of these debates have been won, and twice in the same time the college has won second place in the State Oratorical Contest. This year, ’24, the Co-Eds organized the Thalian Literary Society. The Class of ’24, is the second in the history of the college which has a member who won his Taup Kappa Alpha Key as a Freshman. Our growth as a class has been an evolutionary one. In Student Government there has been improvement each year over the previous one, until now we have a better one than any former class was able to maintain. But why should this not 64 Cljc JjfjtltX y be so, with “Bob” Daniel, Grace Templeton, and Gwyn Price at the head of these organizations? The Young Men’s Christian Association, the White Topper, and the Glee Club, are all led and managed by seniors, “Tubby” Earman, “Rabbit” Williams, and “Dimples” Davis, respectively. The Literary Societies, too, have been presided over by members of the Class of’24. Since our arrival many permanent improvements have been made at the col- lege: The Memorial Gate-way, improved roads, concrete walks, and a Gym- nasium which is the best in the South for a college the size of Emory and Henry. Some of those who started out with us in ’20, have been eliminated by the ordeals of math, psychology, and physics; others, because they were the fittest— but not for their school duties. Some of us stuck it out to the end, because it was the “eternal fitness of things,” some because “eternal vigilance is the price of victory,” some because they “learned Bible with a little map,” some because they could understand “here, here, here, here,” and still others because they met every difficulty with a—“It Can Be Done:” “Somebody said that it couldn’t be done, But he with a-chuckle replied That ‘maybe it couldn’t,’ but be would be one Who wouldn’t say so ’till he tried. So be buckled right in, with a bit of a grin On bis face. If be worried be bid it. He started to sing as be tackled the thing That couldn’t be done—and be did it.” Even so, and before the ink of these words has time to dry, one of our number, O. E. Jennings, is called to his reward. He lived with us four years and lacked just one quarter’s work of graduating. In that time he lived the life of a Christian gentleman. Surely his comfort and anchor in life was grounded in faith like that voiced by Whittier, when he said, “ I know not where His islands lift Their fronded palms in air; I only know I cannot drift Beyond his love and care.” The faculty—yes, it has changed, too. Some returned, some left, some came, others tarried and some visited. The seniors will remember each of their teachers with fondness, or- . We leave the Blue and Gold with a deep sense of gratitude, for what our Alma Mater will mean to us in the future more than she has in the past, for as the path lengthens with the fleeting of the years, she will become dearer to each of us, and not until then will we be able really to appreciate the contribution of Emory and Henry College to our future success. 65 99 Zi) t III) MIX 67 Ti)t MID M.

Their arrival signified ability and desire for learning, keeping as their motto, “Go to your work, be strong, halting not for an instant dole of praise; but he men in the world of men.” They were pressing onward to the goal of graduation. When that day arrives Emory and Henry will he blessed for having such noble characters to call alumni. On the athletic field the members have taken their parts; they have carried the football over the gridiron; they have danced over the basket-ball court; they have turned the baseball games into a track meet, and above all these, some have played “Hide and go Seek” with the Co-Eds until they have fallen in love, and now we find some of them lost with memories’ dearest possessions. There are others who will study law, wave the statutes in the face of the jury to protect those unfortunate members who are about to he adorned with the stripes. Still there arc those who will some day stand in the pulpit and proclaim the Gospel and we will not he surprised to find their shoulders decked with a Bishop’s robe. These thirty members are the children of Emory and Henry gone forth to plant the ideals and establish the truth in order that the nation might prosper, and that they may not count themselves as lost sheep in the pasture fields of the world. We feel that the class is leaving an enviable record behind her, as they round the third lap of their college life, having worn off the greenness as freshmanhood and weathered successfully the sophistication of sophomority; they have settled down to real work and feel that the high ideals which our admirable faculty has instilled in them are bearing already. They have proven themselves loyal and true as any class toward the building of an ever higher, nobler and better Emory and Henry. This class will some day contribute glory to the colors of Lemon and Blue. 75 fjr jifjtttx Cijc rijc pi� nx Sophomore Class OFFICERS J. C. Meade............................President H. L. Babcock. ..

But the lure of the gridiron wa„ much stronger than that of the business world, so when the final whistle blew for football practice in '20 he returned to Emory to lend a guiding hand to the Wasp machines. His personality, hi strength of character, and his real sportsmanship have always gained for him a widespread popularity among all Emory men. The teams that he has built up sulliciently demonstrate his coaching ability. 89 Cfjc JlljtUX Monogram Club OFFICERS A. T. Cole B. K. Beauge R. N. Lawrence President Pice-President FOOTBALL C. G.

Beery, Captain F. S. Oates 92 ©l)r diiljfttx BEERY, Quarterback Dec” is a Roanoke High product and had established quite a name for himself there before coming to Emory in 1921. He made a back Held position that year on a team that was made up of stars of high magnitude. The next year he was given the position of quarterback and was the mainstay of the backfield at that time. The following year he was the logical choice for captain, and he played at his old place at quarter until he received injuries in the Ky. Wesleyan game which kept him on the bench for almost the remaining season. Next year will find him back at his old position. COLE. Tackle Among the notable players that Coach Fullerton has developed, Tom stands among the foremost. His playing is never sensational, but his strength and indomitable spirit together with a detailed knowledge of the game have won for him a position of honor and confidence. His team-mates unanimously chose him for captain for the coming year. His work at tackle has always been characterized by its dependability and under his leader- ship great things arc expected of the Wasps of 1924. WEAVER, Fullback This smiling “Tar Heel” received his elementary train- ing in the strenuous days of Emory and Henry Academy. Later he played at Weaver College and had some ex- perience at Trinity, so he came to Emory last spring with a wealth of gridiron experience. He proved to be a hard tackier, a consistent ground gainer and excellent in back- ing up a defensive line. Due to conference regulations he could not play in all games. Next year he will be entirely eligible and without doubt will prove a great help to the team. 93 rijc -Uliiii.v LAWRENCE, End This rare combination of cakic and athlete was among the stellar performers of last season. Coming to Emory in the fall of 1922, Dick worked hard and made his letter during his freshman year. His work at end was somewhat exceptional, seldom allowing himself to he sucked in, and always handling the punts in a skillful manner. The hackfield came in for their share of his services, too. His ability at punting put the Wasps out of a hole on more than one occasion. The team is lucky to have two more years of his services. FLETCHER, Halfback “Dummy” didn’t get his name from being tackled. He happened to acquire it during his unsophisticated days at Castlewood and couldn’t manage to snake it off after coming to Emory. He’s not so dumb after all. having played two years of consistent football with the varsity squad. As a runner and line plunger he’s good, always managing to squeeze his carcass through a hole in the line if there happened to be one. BAILEY, Halfback Just about the time he had acquired all the tricks of a wingman. Coach transferred him to halfback where he showed more aptitude and ability than ever before. He always showed rare judgment in handling punts, in addition he was a consistent ground-gainer, never failing to click off a gain over tackle or around end when called upon to carry the ball. He fittingly closed his gridiron career in the Johnson City game when lie gained a total of 146 yards, nearly as much as the combined yardage of the enemy backs. HILLMAN, Guard “Smoky Bill” incorporates in bis make-up all the loftiness and grandeur of his native Scott County moun- tains. Besides this he is a self-made football player, having played with the scrubs two years, and by real hard work made the varsity squad as guard during the past season. By his natural ability, speed and huge size Bill furnished characteristics to the line necessary both to offense and defense. Even greater things are expected of Bill next season. 94 n eijr «Iiljfux WOLFE, Fullback John did his propping in the schools of Lee County, hut his elementary training in football was received under the direction of Coach Knight. Last fall he awakened to the fact that two years with the scrubs was enough for any one man. so he got busy and managed to enter the varsity ranks. Injuries handicapped him during mid-season but he came hack well during latter games. John has one more year to wear the Lemon and Blue. HULL, Center When it comes to downright hard work either in prac- tice or in games, Wythe was always right there. His first year was spent with the scrubs. The next year he ascended to the varsity ranks but did not acquire his letter until last season. The showing he made against linesmen of greater weight was much to his credit. Wythe has another year and should prove valuable to the team HORNE. Halfback “Short” was the surprise of the year. After playing part of the season on the scrubs they awakened to the fact that he was a football player after all. He got his chance on the varsity at the Hast Tennessee Normal game and took advantage of it and made good He played regularly the rest of the season and did some mighty fine playing. Next year if he should come hack he will do a lot toward filling Kid” Bailey’s place. BODANYI, Utility Linesman Bo's birth on the varsity was accomplished by hard work and grit. This stalwart son of Pocahontas never spared a John Smith that faced him in the line. When his physical powers failed him his vocal organs were his chief support, and his war cries struck terror in the hearts of the enemy. Bo” has deserved the numeral he has earned, and in all probability he will find himself in a regular position at guard next year. 95 ®i)C EARMAN, Manager In Karnian the team had a capable leader and business manager, as well as a companion on all trips. Credit should be given him for the successful financial outcome of the season, and the conveniences and comfortable quarters shared by the team when away from home. VIALL, End Coming back unexpectedly to finish his college career, “Peter” was one of the surprises of the season. His two years of real experience acquired by hard work on the field have enabled him to outclass his opponents on in- numerable occasions. Viall is credited with making the prettiest play of the season when in the Johnson City game lie intercepted a pass and ran fifteen yards for a touchdown. He is graduating with highest honors, and the team will miss him. FARRIER, Tackle Bob is another of Coach Knight’s proteges. He left the Junior Varsity ranks last year to lend a helping hand to the Varsity line. His services were valuable elsewhere, however. He is a kicker of no mean ability, and acquired quite a reputation in that form of the game during the past season. OATES, Quarterback After Captain Beery’s injuries early in the season, Oates was called upon to act as general for the team. Unlike Napoleon, he is tall in stature, and his great leadership, ability, and coolness under fire were respon- sible for many points. His skill in guiding the team, together with his work at returning punts placed him among the season’s stars. The fruits of his experience will be available to the team of 1924. DAVIS, Guard This huge bundle of sunshine, brawn, and muscle, was one of the mainstays of the Wasp line last season. He played his first football at Hiwasse College last year, but acquired some tutelage in the Fullerton methods of play before he came to occupy a regular position on the Varsity squad. He succeeded in making one of the Wasp’s touchdowns last season by intercepting a forward pass. Men like Davis look good for future Wasp success. 96 £fjr Cljr 1923 Football Review The Wasp aggregation, during the season just past, proved itself to be a good one, not by spectacular overcoming of all opposition, however strong, hut by steady development to a degree of efficiency which did not reach its climax until late in the season. It is true that some of the games were disappointments. But tallies do not tell the whole story, and in spite of them the season was one of more than ordinary significance. We succeeded in keeping the goal at home from being crossed, and in winning those games by decisive scores. The defeats we received are not to he ashamed of. True it is that Milligan departed from the field with unmerited laurels, and even if Elon did likewise, we cannot blame the team for the results. All in all we piled up a total of 154 points against 112 for the opposition. Besides this we made three times as much yardage and four times the number of first downs. Moreover, the development of material for the coming season is a source of real satisfaction, and it is generally believed that the season of ’24 will be a banner one for the Lemon and Blue warriors. HIWASSE AT EMORY The season opened up with Hiwasse and the affair ended in an easy victory which was as it should have been. The Tennesseeans, although they put up a plucky fight, could not stop the backs of the Fullcrtonites. The line could be characterized by one word—solid. From tackle to tackle that day was a one- way street, and the Wasp hacks had the right of way, over which they carried the ball eight times for touchdowns. KENTUCKY WESLEYAN AT BIG STONE GAP This was the game of games, the feature event on the Wasp’s card. Long will the results of that day linger in the memory of those who fought as well as those who witnessed it. That October day dawned bright and clear; everyone was in readiness, and Kentucky must be beaten. By nightfall it was a story of defeat with 33 points against our none. We have no alibics to offer. We were beaten by a team that worked without a hitch. It was in this game that Captain Beery received injuries that kept him on the bench for almost the remainder of the season. EAST TENNESSEE STATE NORMAL AT EMORY Recovering from the defeat at Big Stone Gap, the Wasps came back and ad- ministered a real trouncing to the Normalites. The team played in real form and began to look like a machine of coordinated parts, well oiled and running perfectly. The Tennesseeans, nevertheless, showed a determined brand of fight, and three times menaced to cross our own goal line. The final score was 45 to 0. 98 rijc pi)tnx ELON AT ELON, N. C. The Wasps invaded the Tar Heel territory, determined on revenge for the defeat last year, and made a hard struggle for victory. The 'Far Heels carried the hall over for a counter in the first ten minutes of the play, and thereafter failed to gain the required yardage. The Wasp’s chance to score was lost on a fumble after they had advanced the ball to the ten yard of Elon in the second half. The final score was 6 to 0. V. M. I. AT LEXINGTON Invading the Keydet’s territory to do battle to the heavy Flying Squadron, the team was again minus the services of some of its regulars. With determined fight they held their heavier opponents scoreless the first quarter. The Wasps fought hard and bravely but could not cope with the superior weight, power, and speed of the Keydets. So when the final whistle blew, the Eying Squadron, with the reputation as the best team in the state, had registered 46 points to our none. HAM PDEN-SIDNEY AT HAMPDEN-SIDNEY The Tigers of Death Valley were next on the schedule, and according to the treacherous dope were due a noble defeat at the hands of the Wasps. It was a struggle from start to finish, both teams fought fiercely, but the Tigers had a little better of the scrap. Three times the Wasps menaced their goal but each time the Tiger line braced and stuck. In addition they succeeded in rolling up 22 points against us. TUSCULUM AT EMORY A made-over machine, a team determined to win or die in the attempt was the team that Tusculum faced. The team did real work and during the first frame they rolled up 16 points while their opponents were drawing their breath. It was their last home game and they held to their record of not being scored upon on the home grounds. In the meantime they collected 46 points from Tusculum. MILLIGAN AT JOHNSON CITY 'Phis was the last game of the season and one in which defeat came the hardest. Even the Milligan Buffaloes know only too well that we outplayed them as regards yardage and first downs, and everything but tallies chalked up, but tallies are what count in football. As it was they won by one point or bv a 7 to 6 score. Their only touchdown was made by covering a blocked punt behind the Wasp’s goal line. Ti)t Junior Varsity Squad J. E. Williams W. D. Richmond F.

Babcock 102 Cijr CAPTAIN BAILEY, Forward The end of last season marked the close of a career of one of the Wasp’s foremost cagemen. Barred from the court his first year by a crippled knee, he made up for the time lost by hard practice the following season. Last year he was running mate to Capt. Hutcherson and was one of the mainstays of the team. His speed, his eternal fighting spirit, together with a lot of hard work won for him the leading position on the team during the season just past. With the graduation of Bailey marks the passing of a great player and his services will be missed by more than the team alone. WINGO, Manager Although not able to complete a schedule on account of his inability to remain in school, the work he accom- plished as manager was of a very commendable type. GRAHAM, Guard Lee County has long been famous as the home of the Grahams or better known as “Jonahs.” This particular one came to Emory three years ago and followed his brothers’ footsteps on the basket-ball court. During his freshman year he was the life of th r Junior Varsity. The next year saw him in a regular Varsity position among several stars. Last season his services had much to do with the success of the team. A brilliant dribbler, fast as a streak, a good goal tosscr, may be said to characterize his playing at all times. With his wealth of experience he should prove the mainstay of next season’s team. 103 Cljr uf|«n. STOWERS, Guard Aubrey lias always been a steady guard and bis floor work is of the best order. His playing was not of the spectacular or brilliant variety, but of the steady kind that ranked him among the best standing guards in this section? His work at netting the sphere from long dis- tances was of great value to the team. Having a physique that reminds us of the strength of Gibraltar, he seems just made for basket-ball. BABCOCK, Center Hugh received his preliminary hints in the court art all the way from Hagerstown, Md„ to Williamson, W. Va. He plays with the case of a veteran and his performance is always consistent. His lack of height sufficient to control the tip-olF on all occasions was more than offset by bis clever passing and floor work. He is one of the Sophomores in whom the Wasp’s hopes arc bound up for the next two years. DINKINS, Forward From a line consisting of several basket-ball players of no inconsiderable ability, Dinkins was chosen as the running mate to Captain Bailey. Before this lie was recognized as one of the main cogs in the Freshman machine. At all times he put forth his best efforts and held up his end to the satisfaction of his team-mates and student body at large. This is his first year on the team and bis services will be of real worth in the ncxi three years. 104 tjr ilnnx 1924 Basket-Ball Season Emory and Henry faced her 1924 basket-ball season with three of the regular players of last year missing. The new material was not especially promising and everything was dark on the Wasp horizon. Coach Fullerton began in earnest to develop a team out of the raw material that swarmed into the gym at the opening of the season. It was not an easy task, but the outcome was a team that won three out of the seven games played, adding up 193 points against 227 for the opposition. For the first time in several years the schedule was arranged so that they could play all their games in the new gym, before Lemon and Blue fans, with the ex- ception of the one that was played in Bristol. The Wasp cage season opened up on Jan. 18 in Bristol, losing to the fast “Y” team by a score of 52 to 30. They were severely handicapped by the smaller floor of the opponents, but in spite of obstacles they are credited with a plucky fight against the onslaught of a more experienced team. A few days later they lost to T. P. I. by a score of 38 to 18. This was one of the roughest games in recent years, and the superior strength and towering height are given credit with being responsible for the successful onslaught of the visitors. 'Flic next game was with Elon, and is regarded as the best game of the season in spite of the score of 37 to 26, resulting in favor of the Tar Heels. The game was a neck and neck struggle almost to the last when the visitors gained a slight lead. On Jan. 31, luck began to change for the Wasp basketeers. They played the Johnson City Normal and succeeded in doubling the score on a team that was generally conceded as having the cards stacked in its favor. Shortly after this the Wasps administered very much the same kind of a pill to the Bristol Elks. The final score was 27 to 17. Tusculum was next to invade Waspville, and they left with flying colors. At the beginning the Wasps took the lead but could not maintain it, so when the end came they had registered 29 to our 16 points. The last game of the season came on Feb. 22, when the Wasps covered themselves with glory by defeating the fast Y. M. C. A. team by a score of 34 to 33. 105 CI)C pi)U%x Girls’ Varsity Basket-Ball Anna Dinkens Ruth Berry Katharine Tilly Margaret Anderson Helen Orr Ann Faun Lucile Griffitt Juliet Miller 106 djc Review of the 1924 Co-Ed Basket-Ball Season The close of the first official basket-ball season for the girls finds the balance in score overwhelmingly in favor of the Co-eds. With a squad of only twelve girls available from which to pick a team, a fighting aggregation was evolved that allowed only one defeat out of a schedule of five games; this defeat came from a team which afterwards showed itself to be superior to any in Tennessee. Hard work, faithful practice, coaching and co-operation soon built up a spirit and teamwork that was not to be counted lightly in any contest on their schedule. The Tennessee Teachers from Johnson City were first to invade the territory of the Waspettes. The fast and efficient teamwork and experience of their oppo- nents proved to be a white elephant for the Co-eds, and after a close struggle in the first half the score turned with a heavy margin to the credit of the Tennessee girls. The final score was 42 to 12. Coming back in full force in the following game with Martha Washington they revenged their defeat of last year by reaping a real victory from the Martha Mamas. Stonewall Jackson came next on the list. The visitors were not equal to the occasion which resulted in an easy victory for the Emory girls. The whole team worked in perfect accord and kept the game well in the hands of the Co-eds for the entire evening. Decided upon a more complete revenge for the defeat of the previous season, the Waspettes again allowed the Martha girls to invade their camp. This time the visitors left with a score of 32 to 16 to the credit of the Co-eds. The final court battle of the Co-eds court season took place on the home floor of the Stonewall folks. With a flash of fast team and floor work the Co-eds took the stronghold of the Stonewall aggregation to the tune of 24 to 9. At no time during the game did the rivals threaten to take the lead. For the locals the total count of the season was 118 against 93 for their opponents. Several high schools were defeated by the Co-eds with lop-sided scores, these games not count- ing in the schedule and were classed as practice games. 107 £i)C |lljtux The Waspettes of this year’s team are the first to be awarded the Monogram for this excellent record. The monogram is smaller, and on the old English style, so they cannot be taken for the regular E and H monograms. The following girls won monograms: Ann Falin, captain; Katharine Tilly, Helen Orr, Lucile Griffitt, Margaret Anderson, Juliet Miller, Ruth Berry, Anna Dinkins. By taking a glance at the schedule you can see the team was always fighting and Emory and Henry is proud of them.

Three years at varsity baseball developed him into an all-’ronnd player who knew every angle of the game. In a pinch it was usually “Shorty” who started the rally, and on the field he managed to take in all that came his way. His ability at the hat, on the field and as captain—contributed greatly to the success of the team. His graduation has left a vacancy that is by no means easy to fill. CECIL, Second Bane Dick was absent from us most of last year, but he simply couldn’t stay awav from Emory’s diamond during the baseball season. This is his second year on the varsity squad, having had the distinction of making his letter in baseball during his first year. Dick is a good fielder, swings a mean stick, in short, he has the qualities of a real player. In recognition of these qualities he has been chosen captain of this season’s Wasps. DANIEL, Manager To Dan the financial success of the team is readily granted, being the mainstay of the managing helm through- out the season in which the trip to Eastern Virginia figured. The Wasps were fortunate in having one who could manipulate the financial end in such a successful manner. WYGAL, First Base “Square” received his elementary training both in scholastic and athletic affairs in the wilds of Lee County. During his first year he worked hard but missed a letter by inches. 'This year he was numbered among the more fortunate ones and he showed himself to be practically indispensiblc to the team, having closed the season with a batting average of around 400. His work was certainly an important factor in the success of the team. fjr GRAHAM, Centerfield The climax in Jonah’s” career in athletics was reached in the baseball season of ’23. when it seems he was at his best. In “Jonah” was incorporated the best athlete of the year. Being a ten-second man, his fleetness of foot enabled him to field spectacularly at almost all times. His slyness at stealing bases was remarkable, and his work with the big stick ranked him among the best hitters of the season. As an all-’round man he is right there, having made several monograms and standing very high in scholarship. Jonah’s” loss is keenly felt. PRICE, Catcher His exceptional playing and thorough knowledge of the game proved Rick” to be one of the most valuable additions to the Wasp machine. His long and sen- sational work at the old home plate furnished many a thrill to the supporters of last year’s team. Besides being one of Babe Ruth’s rivals he is one of the best catchers that Emory has ever had. BAILEY, Third Base Playing his first year at varsity baseball, Kid” showed that he had the stuff for a three-letter man. With him on third the Wasp inner defense was complete. He could always he depended upon to get the keen ones, and was an ace on the defense with a peg as sure as it was long. JONES, Pitcher Being essentially a cageman, Jones was recruited from their ranks to assist on the mound. In spite of his variety of curves, “Lady Luck” did not deal so well with him, and he lost a game or so. However, the showing he made against superior teams was much to his credit. Ill aride S|)1|H'X HERNDON, Left Field “ Pec Wee’s” rating on the team must not he judged by his size. Although he is little he is certainly full of ambition, which fact he often demonstrated to the batter who coidd place one anywhere near his position in the outer garden. More than once he put a prospective Babe Ruth on the verge of profanity by capturing one that seemed good for a circuit clout. JVIot only an ex- ceptional fielder, he was one of the team’s best hitters, holding a hatting record for the past season that is en- viable anywhere. FELTS. Pitcher In spite of his apparent awkward looking delivery, Felts had enough stuff to baffle a dozen kings of the Swat. Combined with this, his sensational speed, and a level head enabled him to achieve an enviable pitching record, losing only a small percentage of his games. His feature performances were his victories over Roanoke and Maryville Colleges. On account of his graduation Felts cannot be with the team and his loss will be great. HARDIN, Right Field “Jack” made his first appearance in collegiate sports last season and his work among the Wasps was indeed sur- prising. He showed that he was no amateur and he put out a brand of baseball that made some of the veteran members of the squad sit up and take notice. More than once bv a sensational catch he robbed a player of a chance to circle the bases, and at the bat he was among the local kings of the Swat. DEBUSK, Pitcher This southpaw contributed his share to last season’s success. Possessing speed, an abundance of stuff, and ability to fool the unsuspecting batter with his deceptive left arm, he made the old horschidc behave so that few could connect with it. In addition to this, his batting record was somewhat above the average. 112 rijC 41 Iunx 1923 Baseball Review Looking hack over the previous baseball season it cannot be said that it was an amazing success, but by no means was it a failure. Although the number of collegiate games lost slightly exceeded those we won, the Wasps at times put forth a brand of baseball that some of the superior teams could not excell. The season opened up April 6 on the local diamond with Tusculum at the bat. “Lady Luck did not deal so merrily with us that day and they left the field with a score of 5-3 to their credit. The next day Emory came into her own and 'ruscu- lum retired with a 5-3 loss. Apparently the Wasps had struck their stride. Maryville came next on the schedule. The first game with them was easy, Felts pitching the Wasps to a 16-5 victory. On the following day, however, Maryville made a comeback and scored 15 to our 2, thus splitting the scries. The next game was a surprise to everybody. We played the Lebanon Leaguers on their home grounds and in spite of our efforts to stage a ninth inning rally we lost. The score was 6-5. And likewise the game following was a story of defeat. “Sitting Bull,” the twirler for the Milligan Buffaloes had enough stuff on him to baffle a squad of Ty Cobbs. The game ended with 9 runs for Milligan and the minimum amount for the Fullcrtonites. The next game was with the Bristol State Liners. The Wasps put up good opposition, but the Liners departed with the long end of a 14-3 count as was expected. After the game with the State Liners the invasion of the territory to the eastward was begun, meeting Roanoke College on April 30, for the first game of the Eastern trip; Emory batted herself to a 4-1 victory. On the next day we met Lynchburg and the meeting resulted somewhat dis- astrously. Allen and Debusk were not equal to the task and they received poor support. I he final score was 14 to 1. Hampdcn-Sidncy administered very much the same kind of a pill as Lynchburg, only in smaller proportions. Felts did the mound work and held them to fewer hits. The Wasps did better at scoring, too, making 5 to Hampden-Sidney’s 10. Washington and Lee came last on the visit to Eastern Virginia, and they came in for their share of the victory. The final score was 5 to 2. The Wasps started their homeward journey with three defeats and one victory to their credit. On May 12 East Tennessee State Normal invaded Waspville and they were promptly trimmed by a 11 to 3 count. The next day they managed to gain 9 113 ff’fjc III) MIX runs to our 7, the Wasps thereby closing a season that was not without its many points of approval and satisfaction. 1924 BASEBALL SCHEDULE DATE TEAM April 11........East Tennessee State Normal.....

In former years, probably before foot-ball became predominantly a college game, and one of greatest interest among all the sports, Emory and Henry sent out representative tennis teams and mono- grams were awarded. Then, for some inexplainable reason, tennis interest waned, and no intercollegiate matches were held. Again, however, the tennis spirit is being manifested (in the love games played by Ed and Co-ed) and plans are being made for an increase in tennis facilities. Fine showing by local teams for the past few years has been remarkable in view of the fact that tennis has been a minor sport. The student-body boasts of some of the best players to be found in this section, and a record should be established for Emory and Henry on the tennis court as soon as the adequate facilities arc provided. 114 Cijr uDimx Statistics Most Popular Bov A.

On a Basis of $10,000 at age of 35, here’s what you have: Death by any cause.................................................$10,000.00 (Before age 65.) Death bv Accident.................................................. 20,000.00 (Before age 60.) Disability benefits per month......................................... 100.00 In event of total and permanent disability before age 60, this income begins IMMEDIATELY, all future premiums being waived. It continues to age 65, and then (or at prior death) you or your beneficiary will receive the full face of the policy, no deduction being made on account of the disability payments. At age 65—Three options: 1. —Cash to insured..................................$10,000.00 or 2. —Cash to insured................................... 3,120.00 plus Paid up policy....................................... 10,000.00 (Face amount to be paid beneficiary at death of insured) or 3. —Monthly income for life.............................. 72.50 Sufficient payments guaranteed that live or die, insured or bene- ficiary will receive at least $10,000.00.
