. - ■■ . - ■■ 1 ' yj •I (Hoi 11 q i? Rolling through southwest Virginia, Sunny eastern Tennessee, Winds a verdant, wooded valley Fair as human eye can see. White with northern snows in winter Kissed by southern breeze in spring Summer brings the best of harvests Autumn’s rich with everything. Could you want a land more blessed, Wish for happier, sweeter hours; Long for prettier haze-rimmed valley, Look for brighter, fairer flowers? God has filled this spot with beauty, Made few others quite so grand ; Now the angels looking earthward See another promised land. PRESIDENT HILLMAN DEAN HENRY ($ur iFarnltij J. N.

Where the trees in simplest grandeur Send up long and widened boughs,— Stately boughs! And where soft and trinkling waters Always gurgle through the vale,— Garden vale! And where the songsters of Nature Wholly delight in singing praise; And where paths for the future Are paved in richest ways— And this is Emory! R. A. Taylor, ’26 Page Twenty-two ROBERT L.

Fullerton Page Sixty-eight r) dluntnr Uaraitij The Emory and Henry Junior Varsity enjoyed a very successful season under the direction of Assistant Coach Withers. The team won two out of four games, tied one and lost one; but their main purpose and success was in their scrimmages with the Varsity men. The call for candidates was not issued until several weeks after the opening of school and this delay handicapped the “Baby Wasps” to a large extent. However, Coach Withers whipped a good and hard fighting team into shape that gave the Varsity all it could handle on several occasions. In their own games they defeated the Marion Independents 14-0; lost to Dublin High 13-0; tied 0-0 with Saltvillc High and trampled the Wythevillc High Schoolers for a 6-0 victory in their final game. Page Seventy (Hip Tlaraitij It has always been a handicap to the teams of Emory to have at the beginning of each season mostly new material from which to construct their teams. This year was no exception to this circumstance, but by the end of the season there had been a neat, fighting but small team concocted, on which many compliments were made. It is notable, the way in which these, almost midgets in size, took their most austere rival into camp by playing a brand of ball, which even the fellows did not think themselves capable of doing. Of course there might be those who arc termed as the outstanding lights of the team—all teams have them—but the real spirit of their fighting, which is better than any most clever assortment of plays ever used, was instilled into them on their practice field by the unflinching opposition of the substitutes. As a whole, the squad of this year was probably the pluckiest and most earnest of any that has represented Emory for some years. Page Seventy-one R. N. LAWRENCE (Captain) Quarterback After four years, Dick has fittingly closed his career as captain of the ’25 Wasps. His passing, running, and kicking caused football critics to acclaim him the greatest triple- threat Fullerton has developed. He played the game hard and clean. A. S. WITHERS, Assistant Coach Having received his athletic tutelage at Emory and Henry College, “Woozy” absented himself from his Alma Mater for a while and has returned with his exceptional instructing ability and proved a successful mentor to the Wasps. F. R. QUILLEN, Manager After three years of assiduous labor and strict attention to the most minute details, Fred was chosen for the manager of the football team and has performed his duty well. W. WEAVER, Fullback For three seasons Shade has been one of the main cogs in the Emory machine and has played the fullback position with undying credit to himself and his school. In the past season he added his share at placement for every touchdown scored, which provided the margin of victory in the most thrilling game of the season against Kentucky Wesleyan. Page Seventy-two W. E. BONES, Halfback Billie, playing his first year on the Varsity, won by his consistent efforts a warm place in the hearts of Waspdom. A heavy charging back and deadly tackier, coupled with determination, cause fans to expect more from him in the future. E. B. COMBS (Captain-Elect) Tackle For a steady, dependable leader, the choice of the '26 captaincy naturally falls on Combs. He is sincere in making his best effort toward building up the team. We are confident that Earl will meet the responsibilities that are a captain’s and exit the better man after having met them. W. E. HASSINGER, Center In Bill the Wasps possessed a man who played the game for all it was worth. In every battle that he entered his unconquerable fighting spirit was always paramount. To a man that gave his all and refused to surrender to difficulties, the honors must go to William. F. R. BAILEY, Halfback Such words as endurance, determination, ability, speed and headwork might well characterize Kid’s playing, for it was the harmonious combination of these factors that made him the elusive halfback of ’2S. With two more years ahead of him, Wasps backers are betting heavily on the diminutive kid. Page Seventy-three W. L. CASSIDY, End The Freshman class had the honor of giving Cassidy to the Varsity ranks. lie is built for stretching over a good deal of territory when there is blocking to be done or interference to be run. With three more years remaining, his future looks bright. H. C. STONE, Guard Henry was one of the outstanding players on the Junior Varsity last year. His aggressive fighting spirit and one hundred and eighty-five pounds of bone and muscle brought him to the Varsity. His pluck made him an ideal linesman. J. C. MEADE, Guard Jack is a quiet married fellow who fought a game battle for his coveted monogram and won. The personification of pluck and endurance was recognized every time he went into a game. His work against Kentucky Wesleyan was of high quality. C. A. SHUFFLEBARGER, End Shuff” is one of those fellows who works hard when he goes after what he wants. His great ability as a speedster and exceptional qualities as a snagger of passes gave him the edge over the other wing” competitors. His performance against the “Panthers” was one of the season’s outstandings. Page Seventy-four s; Although the lightest man on the team, “Pidney more than made up for his lack of flesh with his speed and pluck. Playing part in every game of the season, excepting one, he, at all times showed marked ability in directing the team. D. C. TICKLE “Big Dan” took his football work seriously with the result that he became indispensable. With his 190 pounds of steely muscles, he was one of the Wasp’s best linesmen. With a stiff arm like a mule’s kick, he kept his opponents continually at his mercy. Page Seventy-five O. F. STICKLEY, Guard Stickley did not join the ranks of football heroes until this fall, but was very successful. He worked hard for a place in “Bingo’s” line and his letter came as a just reward. He has two more years in which to gather additional gridiron laurels. T. L. PORTERFIELD, Quarterback Ted came from the Freshman ranks. He was a sure tackier and of equal usefulness in opening holes. His favorite pastime was smearing the opponents’ plays behind the line of scrimmage. His best work was against Tusculum. C. T. MAJOR, Tackle JffnnthaU 2Lemwu Judging from comparative scores and the number of games won. the football season of ’25 was not the brilliant and glorious success that followers of Lemon and Blue had wished it to l e. In the field of true and clean intercollegiate athletic contests, however, there arc those who never consider anything except the games won and points piled up. To l e sure, this is a vastly important element and the only way by which teams arc finally rated. Those, who analyze the circumstances and difficulties under which each team is forced to lalx r, realize that no team can lie properly rated solely on the number of games won. With only five letter men returning to the fold. Coach Fullerton was forced to build a machine under the most trying circumstances. The one great element necessary—experience—was sadly lacking ami it required a most marvelous display of determination to overcome that seemingly overwhelming obstacle. But ere the season had closed the team met and conquered these difficulties in true fighting Wasp spirit; and, although not the greatest Emory machine, it did preserve those high ideals of honor and sportsmanship necessary to any truly great body of athletes. On Scptcmlicr 25th the Wasps started on the gridiron struggles by going under fire against the Cadets of Virginia Military Institute. While the Flying Squadron pushed across forty-six points, the game was not so one sided, as one might imagine. The Wasjis fought every minute of play but the Cadets held the upjier hand throughout the play by virtue of their superior weight and experience. Windy” White, Frisky Harmcling, and Snail Caldwell, all former Wasp stars, were the big guns for the Squadron. Coach Fullerton used this game to test all of the men and. although they performed well, no particular stars could be mentioned. The second game did not prove so glorious this year, for the Team was forced to bow before the marvelous machine from the University of Tennessee. The precision and effectiveness of this machine gave the Knoxville fans the idea that it was invented solely for the purpose of producing touchdowns. This the Volunteers did until the final whistle had blown and they had produced fifty-one points while the Wasps failed to register. The Wasps held the heavier Vols to a 6-0 score until the last few seconds of play in the first half, when a nicely executed jxiss produced their second counter. At the lieginning of the second half Fullerton sent in a team composed of second string men. These men fought well but were unable to co| e with the terrific offensive that poured from the Vol licnch in the form of forty-six sub- stitutes. Truly, the score is not justice to the Wasps, but, rather an indication of what a tremendous reserve power means to a team. For their first collegiate game, the Wasps journeyed over to Hickory, North Carolina, where they met the Lcnoir-Rhync aggregation and lost by a 10-0 score. The game was replete with thrilling plays, with the Wasps carrying the fight into the I.cnoir territory. The only touchdown came in the second quarter when Owl, full-blooded and blood-thirsty Indian, gave an awful war-whoop and galloped around left end. The loss of the game was not due to the weakness of the Wasps but to the adverse conditions under which they played. It was a day better suited to submarines than foottall men, and it also affected the referee since the game was marred by frequent disputes with the gentleman. “Dick Lawrence brought shouts of admiration from a hostile crowd with his spectacular end runs. “Kid” Bailey, “Billy Bones and “Shade” Weaver all played a good brand of ball. The Wasps made their first home appearance against the strong Lynchburg Hornets and lost 12-0. It was a thrilling game with the Wasps always rushing their opponents. They made eight first downs to Lynchburg's one. A short pass enabled Carpenter to make their first counter during the second quarter. The worst break of the game came in the third period when Weaver's punt was blocked and Suttcnficld fell on it across the goal line for the second score. Captain “Dick” played a stellar game, as did Bailey. Bones. Weaver and Hassinger. Porterfield directed the team from quarter most of the time. The kicking of Lcitman was the feature for Lynchburg and the direct means by which they gained yardage. For two years the cunning Panthers had come snarling out of the Kentucky hills and succeeded each time in conquering the Wasps. It was a mighty tattle, the kind an old grad likes to tell about while sitting around the fire-side during the cold winter days. For a while it seemed that the history of the last meeting would lie repeated when the sensational end runs by Glccn, Kentucky’s great back, hail pro- duced a touchdown during the first quarter. But in the second jieriod the Lawrence to Bailey combination gave the Virginians a score and Weaver added the extra point, placing his team on the long end of a 7-6 score. Then, in the third period, the Wcslcyanitcs came tack and made another counter but the Wasps also netted one when Shufilcbargcr caught “Dick’s long heave over the line. Weaver added the point and Emory won her greatest tattle of the year 14-13. To pick a star would lie to name every man on the team, but, perhaps, the one man who was most instrumental in the victory was Captain “Dick. The Wasps then met the big red team from Tusculum College in their second and final home appear- ance of the season. While the Tennesseans put up a scrappy fight and fought for every inch of turf, they were not a nftitch for the Wasps on that day. Billie Bones provided the thrill early in the game when he broke through the line for a 56 yard dash. The Lawrence to Bailey combination again proved effective by scoring two Wasp scores, while Bones plunged the line for the other. The Wasps were content with a twenty-one point lead at the opening of the final period but obviously the Tusculumitcs were not. It was during this time that they proved themselves to be masters of football aeronautics by marching eighty yards for their only score. Every man on the team played well with Lawrence and Bailey blazing the way. A ddfeat at the hands of the Elon Christians was the result of the second Wasp invasion into North Carolina. Although the Tar Heels 1 wasted of a well-balanced machine, the Wasps should have handed them a defeat. Something went loose with the Virginians and they never made any great headway through the North Carolina defense. Raub, of Elon was the Star while Captain Lawrence furnished the thrills, with his long runs. When the scorc-kcejier marked Elon 14, Emory and Henry 0. the Wasps closed the most hectic season in years. Page Seventy-six Page Seventy-seven laakrtball Each season that opens up a new term of sports lias always carried with it the attendant difficulties of developing and training new material. This is especially true of our school. Usually there is on hand a plentiful supply of men who arc willing to learn, but these have to be “put through” a year before they arc capable of doing creditable work for their Alma Mater. Coach Fullerton has proved himself capable of doing this very thing. In the years past, he has, at the advent of every season, set out to develop an entirely new team, and so far he has succeeded remark- ably well. This season in Basketball has been one of the exceptional instances when varsity material was present to start a new season. The results from such a circumstance can be gleaned from the succeeding pages. It is needless to say that it is highly gratifying to know that such a season has been in our annals. H. G. BYRD (Captain) Center The “Georgia Flash” has again run riot in his favorite pastime, Basketball. This season he was as good as, if not better than, last year, when he lead the point men in the state. The nickname he has won is no idle soubrette, but the result of hard playing and genuine gameness in the indoor sport. His departure will leave a gap in the ranks of the next year team. D. C. G. GREEAR, Forward Although a new man, he has established a record thru this past season that is hard to beat. In the beginning as an unknown quality, he came forth with the goods, and is now heralded as the best. His floor work was a marvel to the fans, at all times having complete control of himself and keeping the opponents guessing, he was a giant to be reckoned with. J. N. DENTON, Manager Jim has competently filled the position of manager of the Basketball team. His attention to details and the schedule mark him as a hard worker and a successful manager. After getting off to a bad start, he finished the season in fine style. His arrangement of the games is little short of phenomenal, and shows the result of close collaboration. Page Seventy-eight M. M. WEAVER, Guard A quiet, sturdy man who has never pushed himself forward, but cannot be equaled in his way. He has been a mainstay in the Emory machine for the past two years, and again this year fed those peerless forwards. His work at center and guard are jewels of con- sistency. He is never aroused but always there with the goods. Page Seventy-nine Every follower of the Wasps has been delighted this season with the showing made by this flashy forward. His floor work is only surpassed by his ability to hoop the elusive spheroid. In this department of the game, he has led the entire team, and ranks high in the state circles. F. R. BAILEY, Guard P. P. GRAY, Forward The diminutive guard covered himself with laurels this season. Full of spirit and vim, he was regarded last year as a good player, and this year has exceeded expectations and guarded his position thoroughly. Kid fought hard and squarely every game, and the next two years should rank him as one of the leading guards of the state. laaki’tball Sfcmro For the second successive year, the Emory and Henry lxtskctccrs turned in an excellent record on the hardwood floor. By taking ten out of eleven encounters, the 1926 machine eclipsed last year's team, which was victorious in thirteen out of fifteen starts. Beginning the season with abundant material, the team went at a fast clip throughout, and, when the final gun .larked, Wasp supporters everywhere were unanimous in saying that it was the most brilliant success in many years. The season opened with a sensational clash when the locals met their time honored rivals, the Bristol Y team, here. After an intensely interesting Ixittle the Wasps emerged victors by a 25-33 count. When the varsity had piled up a substantial lead, and substitutes had been sent into the fray, the visitors made a strong bid for victory. Near the close of the fray they were on the long end of a 33-32 score. Referee Sharjvc called a foul on the Bristol mentor for coaching from the side-lines, and Captain Byrd tied the count. Paul Gray then put the game on ice in the closing seconds by caging a nice field goal. In the second game of the season, the Wasps completely submerged the Hiwassec Panthers under a deluge of field goals to win an overwhelming 62-6 decision. Hiwassce put up a plucky fight but made scarcely any headway. This is lwlicved to l c a record, as no teams in Virginia arc reported as having held their opponents to a single tally from the floor. Every man on the Wasp team took his share in the scoring melee, but Captain Byrd lead in this department by sending the inflated cowhide through the meshes eleven times. Grccar and Gray followed their captai i with seventeen and sixteen points respectively. From a clear sky dropped the bombshell that startled all Waspdom when the Bristol V team administered the only defeat of the season to the Wasps—40-39. Despite the fact that the game was played on the tiny” association court at Bristol, it had all of the ingredients necessary for an ideal liaskctlKil! fray. The Y men secured an early lead and it was only after a thrilling come-back that the Wasps reached the level in scores. During the final minutes of play the Wasps went into the front of a 39-38 margin. At that time a foul was called on a Wasp guard and Wamble made lx th attempts good to give his teammates a hard earned victory. “The Big Three”—Byrd, Gray anil Grccar—were outstanding for Fullerton's machine. Returning to their nest after the loss of the Bristol invasion, the Wasps met the fast quintet of the West Virginia Mountain Lions in a memorable 1 «attic. The deadly Wasps stingers brought savage roars when injected into the hides of the Lions, but, on the aftermath of the battle, the Wasps had been successful in administering thirty dangerous whelps, while the Lions had left twenty-six scars as remem- brances. Fast at all stages, the fray was one of the best of the season. ‘Paul Gray played one of his most brilliant games of the year and Montie Weaver loomei big in the stationary guard position. Ofsa. flashy forward for Concord, looked brilliant even in defeat. The first game with the Tennessee Teachers was a complete triumph for the Wasps when they romped away to a 41-25 victory. While the score was one-sided the running attack of lioth teams was good and provided many thrills for the spectators. The first half resembled a nice track meet, with the Wasps leading with twenty-nine laps to nine for the Teachers. But the second half found the Teachers coming back with a rush and it was a much faster game, although the Wasps easily maintained their lead. David Grccar lead the locals in scoring honors with fourteen points. The guarding honors were evenly divided between Bailey and Weaver. C. Humphries and Thornburg played l est for the visitors. The Wasps made a dean sweep of their two game series with Teachers by winning a 36-29 decision at Johnson City. The game provided many thrills, but resembled a gridiron classic in its roughness. The lead seesawed continuously and the victor could not lie safely surmised until the final whistle blew. The Wasp passing attack was up to the usual but they seemed unable to pile up any sulxttantial lead. Many innocent snow-birds” were allowed to escape when they could have been murdered with little effort. As a result of this shooting, the Tennesseans lead 17-}5 at half time. During the second half the Wasps located the meshes with greater success and maintained the lead until the close. The Wasps had the edge over the noted Cumberland Bulldogs from way down S'outh and conquered them 40-26. In many respects it was one of the year’s l cst exhibitions of the floor game. Both teams handled the ball well and worked at fast clip throughout the l«attlc. The first half was dose and it was only near the close that the Wasps attained a safe margin of lead. 23-14. The visitors made a great comc-liack and netted ten points while the Wasps retaliated with seven to start hostilities. Every man on the Wasp team played stellar ball, but Kid Bailey proved the shining light with his best performance since wearing the Lemon and Blue. McLanc was the greatest threat for the visitors and did some of the nicest goal shooting seen front a member of a visiting team here during the year. With their stingers oiterating with deadly accuracy, the Wasps flew away with an easy 49-28 victory over a nest of Blucficld College Rattlers. While Blucficld fought a good tip-hill battle, it was soon apparent that they were no match for the Fullerton trained courtmen. The first half was virtually a walk-away for the Wasps with Captain Byrd taking the part of the Pied Piper. When the score stood 25-4 several substitutions were made, but the second-stringers continued the bloody work started by the varsity. The whole team played well, while the substitutes worked like veterans in many respects. Smith and Austin were features for the visitors. Fullerton’s Wasps administered an overwhelming defeat to the Lincoln Memorial Airedales by a 50-20 score. Paul Gray and Captain Byrd uncorked a scoring attack that completely subdued the visitors during the second half. The game, during the first part, was rather slow, -but the Wasp scoring attack resembled a battering ram in its force during the latter half. Montic Weaver, stellar Wasp guard, was the outstanding man in the fray. The excellent floor work of the big North Carolinian was one of his best exhibitions of the year. Flecman and Manley bore the brunt of the attack for the Airedales. The final collegiate encounter was a one-sided affair with the Wasps defeating the Tusculum College quint by a lop-sided 57-35 score. The contest was closely played throughout but the Wasps, scoring ability proved superior to that of the visitors. As usual, the first half was fairly close, but the Wasps came lack stronger in the second half, while the Tusculumitcs seemed to have suffered a collapse. David Grccar gave a performance in running, passing, and dribbling, coupled with good floor work, such as has not been seen here in many seasons. The final fling of the season was taken with the Erwin Y. M. C. A. and resulted in a smashing 52-34 victory for the Wasps. It was the third straight time that the locals had placed their scores above the fifty mark. The visitors led by Gene McMurray, former Maryville star, presented a fast team that kept the battle interesting at all stages. The initial slice was a nick and tuck affair with the visitors having a slight edge in the passing department, but, excellent goal shooting by Byrd gave his team a 19-17 lead at midway. Paul Gray, local ace, who was out of the fray during the first half, returned and quickly assisted in pushing the Emory margin well aliovc the danger zone. Captain Byrd, playing his last game for Emory and Henry, worked like a veteran and was one of the game's features. Page Eighty (gtrla’ laakethall It would not be fair to give only an account of the work of the boys’ teams in the Athletic system at Emory. Everyone who has attended Emory and Henry in late years knows the great part that our Co-eds play in our campus life. They have not only been excellent in class work, but have also done their “bit” in athletics. Those who have followed the work of the Waspettes this season in Basketball cannot help but admire the vim and energy which they have displayed. It is true, that they have not been perfect winners, but, considering that they have been at it only one season, their work is little short of phenomenal. The entire student body expects great things from them in coming years. Page Eighty-one (Stria’ Haakrtball £ raatm To many, the 1926 season for the Emory and Henry Waspettes was a failure, while to others, it contained many redeeming features. Truly, their record was not impressive from the standpoint of games actually won, but such is not the only way in_ which a record can be viewed. When one stops to consider the great scarcity and inexperience of the material on hand, only praise and admiration can be found for Coach Withers, and the girls that composed the team. Only persons with a super-abundance of pluck and determination would have considered it worth while to begin, much less, carry on through seemingly overwhelm- ing obstacles. After defeating a Faculty team, Glade Springs and Greenfield High Schools, the Co-eds launched into their collegiate schedule by meeting the fast Stonewall Jackson sextette at Abingdon. The 30-17 score docs not give a true index to the fierceness of the battle because the fighting spirit shown by both teams was all that could be desired. The first half was close with the Abingdon lassies emerging leaders by a 14-11 margin. The second half found the Stonewall girls going much faster, and steadily advancing their lead to gain the triumph. For the Emory girls, the work contributed by Captain Miller, Elizabeth Huff, and Hattie Tiller was best, although each girl played well. It was a fighting crowd of Waspettes that uncorked a driving attack to win from Centenary’s Purple and White team 24-23. Entering the game doped to lose by a good margin, the Co-eds, with each starring, completely turned upon the wiseacres in the Emory sporting world. The fray ended in a fitting way for the tense struggle with a foul being called on a Centenary player just before the final whistle blew. Captain Miller made the first attempt in double chances good, from the foul line, to give her team the laurels of victory. The first half, played under the girls’ rules, ended 15-12 in the local’s favor. Centenary seemed more at home during the second half which was played under boys’ rules. Captain Miller gave a good exhibition of excellent goal shooting by ringing up twenty-two points, while Elizabeth Huff garnered the remaining two. The guarding honors were close between Hattie Tiller and Nannie Rollins. Fannie Ellington, Lora Dingus, and Eula St. John also played in a creditable manner. On the following Tuesday night, the Waspettes lost their second invasion on Abingdon courts, to the Martha Washington sextette by a 19-11 score. The contest was full of thrills, but the floor work of both teams was marred by rough playing. At the close of the first half, Martha had a three point lead, but the locals were never able to overtake it, although the Abingdon girls never maintained any considerable lead until the closing second of the game. The work of the Emory team was handicapped by the small Martha court, yet, they were not long in adapting themselves to the surroundings. Captain Miller was the scoring ace for Emory, while the guarding honors were about even between Tiller and Rollins. The return game with the Stonewall Jackson girls proved to be a complete triumph for the visitors when they registered a 44-26 victory over the Waspettes. The Emory team put up a valiant fight, but it was not indicative of their real standard set forth in the Centenary game. The first half was rather slow and close, but the superior speed and experience of the visitors put them well into the front before the half had ended. Captain Miller did most of the goal shooting, while Nannie Rollins proved to be a big thorn in the Stonewall offensive. Jean Francais and Cornelia McMillan were the shining lights for the Abingdon girls. The final game of the season was played on the following night with the Concord State College girls. Again, the long end of a 30-17 score went to the visitors and the second consecutive loss was chalked against the locals. While the game was of the interesting variety at all stages, the work of the Emory team was a disappointment as a whole. The visitors made a strong come-back in the second half that assured victory with a comfortable margin. Captain Miller was decidedly “off color” and Elizabeth Huff and Lora Dingus bore a large share of the offensive work. The guards played good games, but the work of Nannie Rollins was their great redeeming feature. Page Eig ity-t wo Sfaju'haU In the succeeding pages will be found a detailed ac- count of the season of last year. This is a necessity, since this book will go to press before the season is under way. Therefore, we take the liberty of glancing forward and foretelling the results. With the exception of Cecil, sec- ond sacker,.and Herndon, stellar fielder, the entire team is back. In addition to the letter men of last year, Harding, a regular of a few years ago, is back and intends to “cop” his old position in the outfield. To say that the prospects are good is a half-hearted way of putting it. The fol- lowers of Emory and Henry expect great things from the 1926 Nine. It would be safe to predict that this year’s team will outstrip last year’s aggregation in every respect. Page Eighty-three t. imnirTW w mum� !

WYGAL, First Base With a well-blended combination of seriousness and humor, “Square” reaches up to pull the highest one down on the initial bag. Fred says that a man out at first means the inning is one-third over; therefore, he believes thoroughly in killing the hopes of would-be scorers early. Not only is his work on the field good but his batting average ranks high as well. R. C. CECIL, Second Base “Dick”, former Captain, closed four years of outstanding work for the diamond Wasps. A great arm, backed by a great baseball mind, made Dick one of the infield luminaries. He closed the season in third place in batting averages. His greatest slugging feat was against Washington and Lee. L. G. HERNDON (Captain) Third Base “Pee Wee”, the little veteran of three seasons, has demonstrated such versatility as an all-round diamond artist that his position of superiority was easily maintained. His ability to hit made him the leading batter in virtually every game. A player par-excellent; a flashy fielder, and a super-fine hitter. W. M. HULL, Jr., Manacer Wythe is a strong believer in the axiom that figures don’t lie. A glance at the baseball schedule of last year is to agree with him. He handled his department competently and well. He has earned the undying gratitude of the entire team with his arrangement of the schedule. Page Eighty-four E. B. COMBS, Catcher The man with the big glove, Stamina! This old timer was moved from last year’s first sack to home and has there so maneuvered himself that very few balls indeed have slipped by him. His wing to any corner is with deadly accuracy and he gives the ball a long vacation when he connects. R. LIKENS, Pitcher Bob” is a worthy understudy to his Tar Heel brother, Montie Weaver. At Lexington the slugging Cadets secured only six bingles from him in the fastest game of the season. He is cool under fire but works in a whirlwind fashion. In addition to his hurling, his hitting was one of the features in several battles. H. G. BYRD, Left Field A hitter of not ordinary skill, and a fielder with grit and agility, is Byrd. In the lot he easily holds down his basketball cognomen of the Georgia Flash.” His speed and accuracy in the field, coupled with a keen knowledge of inside baseball, made the Flash one of the team’s main assets. KID BAILEY, Shortstop Kid quieted the fears of the fans in regard to the shortficld position vacated by his brother. He has a true whip which connected with his grounding ability causes many an opponent to retire to the “mourner’s” bench. Page Eighty-five M. M. WEAVER (Captain ’26) Pitcher Premier twirler in the Emory camp steps to the mound like the monarch that he is, shoots a smoky pill three times straight into the mitt of his batterymate and the heavy hitter of the opposition is dead—without a chance. Eighty-five strike-outs to his credit is in- contestable evidence of his superiority. He is a well-seasoned and effective pitcher of first rank, besides being the heaviest hitter on the squad. C. A. SHUFFLEBARGER, Richt Fiei.d “Shuff” fills the specifications of a good outfielder almost to perfection. Being quick in his judgment, faultless in his catching, and wide-awake at all times, won him the well deserved plaudits of Waspdom. Swift of foot makes Shuff” especially effective as a hunter. L. S. HORNE, Center Field The Flying Dutchman” is a fielding sensation. Generally he stretches the most elusive sphere for a loop, and then, rips the bases off like lightning. Shorthorn fittingly closed his final game for Emory and Henry against Birmingham-Southern by starring both in the field and on the base paths. M. E. RICH, Third Base Due to sickness, Manderville did not get to complete the season; however, when in his regular position, he worked like an old-timer. Not a heavy hitter yet a type of player marked with determination and promise. As a reward to hard work and endeavor, no monogram was any more deserved than Manderville’s. Pagt Eighty-six Saaeball SUmmit The baseball season of 1925 went down into Emory and Henry history, not with a record untarnished by the stains of defeat, but with one of every game played in true Wasp style; victorious in five out of nine starts, and keeping the home slate clean for the second consecutive year. Now, that those stirring times are over, memory cannot refrain from viewing again the beacon lights on that nine—Montie Weaver, premier Wasp slabman, and Captain “Pee Wee” Herndon, outfielder extraordinary, together with their teammates. The Wasp collegiate baseball season started off in an eminently satisfactory manner when they took Lenoir-Rhync into camp 2 to 1 in a nicely played game. It was a pitcher's duel between Weaver and Moose, with the former having the decided edge. The Wasp motindman was in fine form and had the North Carolinians biting at his assortment of curves. In addition to this, the big slabman had a great day with the stick, getting a double, which was one of the longest balls ever hit on the Wasp Field. His teammates accorded him almost perfect support in the field. Before a colorful Public throng numbering well into the hundreds, the Wasps took their second win from the Tennessee Teachers, 3-0. It was an exciting contest with Weaver hav- ing an advantage over Davis, the Teacher hurler. Weaver allowed but two hits, issued three passes, and sent ten men to the benches by the strike-out route, while Davis allowed only three clean hits, passed one, and struck out four ambitious Wasps. The next battle, with the Maryville Highlanders, was of that unforgctable variety. Both teams played a superior brand of ball and it was only after one of the most bitter fights in the history of Waspdom that Emory and Henry came out victorious in a 5-4 count. Weaver had the Highlanders at his mercy but his teammates could not bunch their eleven safe binglcs. Maryville led in the scoring until the last half of the ninth, when “Pec Wee Herndon’s single, enabled “Flying Dutchman” Horne, to make a sensational slide into home plate, for victory. The first game on the long road startled all Virginia when the Wasps played the Washington and Lee Generals to a standstill. An error in the last minute allowed the Minks to register a 4-3 victory. “Dick Cecil and Shufflcbarger were the batting aces for the locals. Both hit for the circuit, but Shufflebarger’s went for naught when he failed to touch third base in his race around the paths. Regarding the game, the Richmond News- Leader said: “There are few, if any, teams in Virginia capable of treating Washington and Lee as the Wasps did. Weaver outpitched the General luirlers allowing the Minks a scant seven hits, and striking out twelve, eight of them in the first three innings, but an error kept the game from going on possibly to a Wasp victory. On the following day the Wasps met the V. M. I. “Flying Squadron” with “Bostic” Likens on the mound. Nugent, assuming slab duties for the Cadets, gave up only three hits and the Wasps suffered their first shutout of the year. The game was played in a whirlwind fashion and lasted only seventy-two minutes. This is believed to have been the fastest college game ever played in Virginia. The game was featured by the beautiful air- tight work on the part of the outfielders. “Iron-Man” Hundley, Hampden-Sidney's premier hurler, completely subdued the Wasps to score a 7-0 triumph. Weaver pitched eight innings but the Tigers nicked him for nine hits while Hundley duplicated Nugent’s feat and allowed the Wasps a scant three. Captain Herndon secured two of Emory’s three safeties for the local scoring honors of the day. The Wasps then divided the remaining two road games between the Medical College of Virginia and Randolph-Macon. The former game was a good exhibition of batting, as both teams wielded the willow rather heavily. However, the locals had the greater success in bunching their stings and scored an 8-6 victory. The gruelling trip told on the Wasps in their encounter with the Yellow Jackets, which they lost 3-1. Neither team showed flashy work, but the Yellow Jackets’ stingers seemed to penetrate deeper than the Wasps’ when in sight of home plate. The last home game of the season, with the Birmingham-Southern “Panthers” was one of the neatest exhibitions of the great American sport seen here last year. Behind the sturdy pitching of Weaver, the Wasps held the Southerners in their power throughout the game. A thrilling ninth inning rally put two Panthers on the paths after Weaver had fanned the preceding two. The next batter swatted the ball into the deepest part of center field, but outfielder Horne saved the day when he snagged the horsehide with a super-human effort for the most spectacular fielding performance seen here in years.

This year Emory and Henry debated Asbury College, of Wilmore, Kentucky, for the first time. It is a great pleasure to Emory and Henry students to think that their repre- sentatives made such a good showing against an institution with a much larger enroll- ment, and a record, for the past few years, of victories over even larger institutions. Perhaps, the decision settled nothing with respect to the consolidation of the railroads of the United States, for both Emory's affirmative and negative teams won, by the vote of 3-1, and 2-1, respectively. At home, V. S. Armbristcr and J. W. Segars won over the Asbury negative team with the spirit of never say die. While, on the Asbury floor, Frank A. Settle, a member of the Debate Council, and C. L. Jennings clinched the decision for the negative by a straight- forward attack. It is interesting to note that the winning of both decisions in the dual debate with Asbury opened the way for another memorable year for Emory and Henry in intercollegiate debating. In this connection, it is well to recall the record of the past two years, and remember that Emory has won 88 percent of all her debates. With this record with us, and plans being under way for another debate with Asbury and many other notable institu- tions for next year, the future is promising even greater victories then have been gained in the past.

George Page One Hundred Fifteen (itlje Sphinx Each year in college is an epoch in your life. The things that you have accomplished, the friends which you have made, and the studies that you have pursued have made their impression upon your memory. Some of these you may wish to forget, but the remainder are priceless memories which you wish to retain. It is with this in view that each year the Senior Class publishes a new volume of the Sphinx. It has been in only recent years that this was made a precedent at Emory and Henry College. The first annual was published in nineteen hundred one under the name of The Boomerang.’’ This was bound in the form of a plain book but is replete with many attractive pages. Then the sand dial was reversed several times before the next edition appeared. It came in nineteen hundred seven under the name of the “Sphinx , which was the first to bear that name. Since that time there have been several lapses in the regularity of the volumes until nineteen hundred twenty-two, since when they have appeared each year. It is interesting to know the motive in the selection of the name which characterizes the book so well. As one legend attributes the position of the Sphinx among the many pyramids, so it is that we attribute our Sphinx as the silent monitor over the memories of old E. H. C. It is with this in mind that we have endeavored to instil into these pages those things which we believe to be worthy of such a watchman. Page One Hundred Sixteen R. N. Lawrence C. B. Hagan R. A.

Previous to that time, the official publication of the college had endured a precarious existence. The first publication of any sort by the college was in 1853. This was, at that time, the oldest college paper in the South. During the period immediately preceding the Civil War, this paper flourished only to die down at the eve of the conflict between the States. Coming out of the chaos of this war, the college again went to work and instituted another publication. Again forces combined to wreck an illustrious career, and the paper was discontinued. A few years later, the two societies produced separately two publications, which lived for several years. Each editing its organ, this plan prospered for some years. In the meanwhile, the two societies got together and decided to publish one paper, namely the Era. This act was suc- cessful and continued as a working basis. This new paper assumed the form of a magazine which catered to the literary productions of the students for the years intervening. It was highly successful in its field, but there was a sentiment prevalent to publish also a news bulletin which should concern itself with the activities and interests of the student body. This soon gained ground and the sentiment prevailed. The News Bulletin succeeded the Era. The News Bulletin served the purpose of the college until late years. Recently a rupture occurred, and the Athletic Council staged a contest for a new name, and the soubriquet “White Topper was chosen. During the years since, the publication has been successful and continually growing. The White Topper has become one of the integral parts of every loyal Emory and Henry man. It takes part in all activities and reports all the interests of student life. New depart- ments have recently been added which will contribute materially to the benefits to be derived from it. The competition for the position of Editor is strong each year, and as each student realizes the advantages to be secured from the paper it is safe to predict that there will be a greater competition in the future.

It deals with the speech and action of a certain Henry Jones who owned a large orchard of apple trees. The fruit of one tree was especially prized by Mr. Jones and he had cultivated this tree very assidiously. This tree, however, did not completely come under the hegemony of Mr. Jones, since it was situated upon the national highway through Utopia. Utopia was not completely free of rascals, as this excerpt will show. The fame of this won- derful tree spread, and many tourists visit- ed this country in order to taste the won- derful fruit of it. Among those who visited it, was a group of very learned scholars. Each of these men was renowned for some great achievement of that country. How- ever, this day, in order to escape the eternal publicity which attended their caravan, they had disguised themselves as ordinary farm- ers and village residents. The scholars visited this tree and tasted of the fruit and became enamoured of it, with the result that they lingered some time in that vicinity. Henry Jones became en- raged at the continued visits of these yokels, as he thought, and engaged them one day in a conversation, and, as a result of his anger, delivered a masterful oration. As we have said he did not realize that his audience was composed of the most inde- pendent and clearest thinkers in all Utopia. He launched forth into his peroration and thence into the body and wound up, still under the impression that his listeners were incapable of individual thought. They were more familiar with the statutes of Utopia than he could ever have been. It would not be amiss to quote from his classical speech; it went somewhat as follows: “A certain pedagogic horticulturist in a certain location possessed an orchard of various fruit-bearing trees. Some bore oranges, some lemons, some figs, and some apples. One day one of these trees sent word to the caretaker that it would appre- ciate his aid, for it wanted to develop its fruit to a higher degree than the remaining trees. The time passed and the caretaker attended to the wants of this certain tree and it came time to bear fruit. Now the tree desired that it be white-washed, this request was acceded to and many other min- ute details cared for. The tree in time, burst forth in all of its glory and spread its multitudinous blossoms everywhere. However, the curious part of the phenomenon was that the blossoms dif- fered, for there were fig, apple, peach, orange, and banana blooms all incorporated on this tree. This was a very presumptions, as well as surreptitious, act of the tree, ac- cording to the lights of the horticulturist. Here was a tree which openly and flagrantly flaunted the rules of horticulture in his face and defied all the regulations of the past. He immediately had this mutinous tree grub- bed from his orchard.” Mr. Jones now looked down at his audience expecting to see them staring open- mouthed at this epoch-making speech, but you and I understand that he had been tricked, for his audience was educated and could think for themselves, and naturally were more amused than awed at his master- piece of oratory and allegory.

The University of Mexico, Mexico City, Mexico, went down in glorious defeat at the hands of Emory and Henry College here today, by the close score of 47 to 0. The largest crowd of the season witnessed the fray, which was tense throughout. Coach Fullerton gave an inspiring talk to the Emory lads before entering the game, tell- ing of a dream that .he had had the night before. He said: “I dreamed an unusual dream last night; that Combs laid down a bunt and beat it out; that Bailey knocked a home run; that Byrd caught a fly (perhaps he meant a horse fly) and that ‘Short’ Horne showed signs of having one time possessed brains. I don’t believe in dreams. Play ball.” The Waspcttcs attended the game cn- masse, not because they were particularly interested in baseball, but they deemed it only fair that they should support the boys’ athletic contests, as they (the boys) had suf- fered through several of their basketball games. They deemed it an obligation to the brave lads, who had so suffered. Herndon, the lead-off man, knocked a home run. Cecil knocked a home run. Bailey knocked a home run. Wygal knock- ed a home run. Byrd, Horne, Combs, Shufflcbarger and Weaver followed with home runs. But Umbiquinio, the Mexican twirier, nipped the rally, only five more home runs being scored in this inning. (Time out Mexico). No runs, no hits, no errors. Weaver gave free tickets to the first three Mexican batters. The next man hit into a triple play, Combs to Weaver to Shufflcbarger to Horne to Bailey to Byrd to Wygal to Herndon to Cecil to runs to hits to errors. In the second inning Horne knocked a home run over the left field fence, but was retired on a fast double play, Tweedle-dum to Tweedle-dce. He was overheard to re- mark, “There is no place like home, even in a baseball game.” Eight runs, no hits, some errors. Weaver was never in danger until the sixth, when Bozo breezed, Antonio whiffed, and Toreador fanned. No runs, no hits, three errors. In the seventh inning Weaver was taken out, substituted by Likens. “Bob” began with, “In Bostic, pitchers---.” This is incidental, however, because in Georgia— peaches and in Florida—(Barnum was right). The first three men flied out to the catcher. Eight runs, one hit, several errors. In the eighth, Umpire William Evans, Jr., Ph.D. announced that Rich was now batting for exercise. He was mistaken, how- ever, for Umbiquinio shot three over so fast that Mandcrville did not have time to get his bat from his shoulder. On returning to the bench, Coach was inquisitive enough to question Rich on the utilization of a base- ball bat. No runs, ditto hits, ditto errors. Some features were the hitting of Rich, the base running of Combs, and the pitch- ing of Umbiquinio. The game was called at the end of the sixteenth inning to allow the Mexican toss- ers to catch 30.
