The session began with the inauguration of Freshman Orientation Week, a plan for the introduction of new students to college before the work of upper classmen begins. Those closest to the situation feel that the plan worked well, and it is the purpose of the University to continue it. There have been enrolled in the University for the year 554 students, distributed as follows: Freshmen .......................................................... 164 Sophomores . 132 Juniors.............................................................. 94 Seniors . . ..................................................... 100 Law Students....................................................... 24 Special Students ................................................... 18 Extension Students ................................................. 22 In addition to these, thirty students have enrolled for correspondence work. The total enrollment therefore is 584. More professors have taught during the session, and more courses have been offered than ever before. In recent years practically all departments have increased the number of courses offered, and several new departments have been added. For the present session the work in biology, history. Bible, and education has been expanded and the enrollment in these departments has been large. Other departments have maintained the high standards of previous years. Remarkable success has attended student activities during the year. In Glee Club work, lebating. and athletics. Furman men have given a good account of themselves. The Y. M. C. A. has been active in fostering the religious life of the students. A meeting led by Dr C. A. Owens and conducted under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. and the faculty deepened the spiritual life of students and faculty. The session has seen the celebration of the hundredth anniversary of the founding of the University. Furman was founded in 1826. and on December 7 and 8. 1926. the completion of a hundred years of service was fittingly celebrated. December 7th was devoted to an academic celebration, and December 8th to an alumni and denominational program. Among the speakers were some of the leading educators of the country, several of them alumni of Furman University. An effort inaugurated four years ago to add $500,000 endowment to Furman University in the centennial year has resulted in the addition of approximately S400.000. The General Education Board of New York City, offered $175,000 on condition that the University would raise $325,000. Considerably more than $325,000 was subscribed, but because of financial depression in the State not all of the money subscribed has been paid in. and the date set for the end of the campaign has been reached with a shortage in payments of about $69,000. It is hoped that the General Education Board will grant an extension of time and that the full amount will be raised. R. N. Daniel, than. Pa jr Ttcsnty-tftm SHORT HISTORY OF GREENVILLE A BOUT one hundred and fifty years ago Greenville county, after a year s war with the (2 1 Indians, was ceded to the State of South Carolina This section, known as Greenville District, had previously been the hunting ground of the Cherokee Nation, and was only slowly settled by white men. First hunters, then traders made their way into the new land, then following in the wake of these came the permanent settlers. One of the first settlers. Richard Paris, in 1776 built a corn mill on the falls of Reedy River, just opposite the site of the present Camperdown Cotton Mills. The number of inhabitants increased, and soon the name Plcasantburg was given to the little settlement Plans were drawn up for a town in the middle of which was to be located the court house, and down one of the side streets of which was to be a gaol, as the jail house was at that time called. The original plat called for four blocks on the east side and four blocks on the west side of a street leading from the river to the head of the avenue. The head of the avenue is the place where Washington street now inter sects Main. Most of the land was then owned by I.emuel J. Alston He put on sale the newly-sur veved lot of Pleasantburg. but they went slowly. The first one. an acre in size, sold for S I 00. Soon Mr Alston sold his entire holdings to Vardry McBee of I incolnton. N. C. Shortly Info re then the name of the little town had been changed from Pleasantburg to Greenville, and though the origin of the name is uncertain it is probablv derived from the name of the Revo lutionary leader. General Nathaniel Greene. For a few years around 1851 Greenville flourished as a summer resort. The following years saw the establishment of Greenville Female College: the gradual growth of the town the erection of the more influential churches: the early popularity of Chick's Springs: and in 1852 the establishment here of Furman University. The newspapers of Greenville have been important factors in the growth of the place. The oldest was the Mountaineer, which for years was owned and edited by Col. James A Hoyt. There were also the Daily S'etc . later becoming the Greenville S'eu'%: and the Evening Herald. which became the Piedmont. The Southern Railroad coming in 1872. and Laurens Railroad in 1882 brought im portant advantages to Greenville then beginning about 1894 began the growth of textile in dustries which has given the city of Greenville the right to call itself the Textile Center of the South. Turning from the history of Greenville, it would be interesting to consider a few up-to-date facts relative to the city and surrounding sections There are in the county twenty-five textile establishments manufacturing annually products valued at $40.000.000. In addition the largest dyeing and finishing plant in the South, and the only bleaching plant which handles fancy silk and cotton mixed goods for the trade are located here. J. K Sirrene if Company, nationally known engineers, has its home in Greenville. The chief money crop of the county is cotton, and the staple is cultivated here as a rule free from the ravages of the boll weevil. In recent years strides have been made in fruit growing, particularly along the slopes of Paris Mountain, and the livestock industry is proving increasingly profitable With the exception of Memphis and New Orleans. Greenville is the largest inland cotton center east of the Mississippi River. The banking resources of the city total more than $25,000,000. The public school enrollment of Greenville proper and suburbs is over 10.000 The Public Library ministering to the reading needs of Greater Greenville has an annua] circulation of over 200.000 volumes, and represents the last word in efficient management. Greenville with an altitude of 1.040 feet, lies four and one-half miles from Paris Mountain with an altitude of 2.054 feet, while about thirty miles from the city and touching the northern edge of the county are the ranges of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Excellent highways lead from the Textile Center to the Land of the Sky. I’age Twenty right SHORT HISTORY OF FURMAN UNIVERSITY —t URMAN University had its hirtb in the Baptist State Convention of December. 1825 qJ1 Here after a great struggle and prolonged deliberation, the resolution, to establish the institution was passed Property in Edgefield was deeded to the State Convention on March 17. 1826. and the institution opened its doors to students on the day of January IS, 1827. The new horn academy remained in Edgefield only a year and a half, being known while there as the Furman Academy and Theological Institution. In 1829 the institution was removed to the High Hills of Santee and there it remained until the year 18 A4 The school was closed for two years 18 55-56. and wart reopened at Winnsboro. on a large tract of land, where the institution tried for some time to maintain a Manual Labor Classical School. Lite theological department was added in 18 58. In 1851 the institution was removed to Greenville and began another struggle for life. Here it was rechartered The Furman University, and fifty nine acres were appropriated for its use. In 1852 the college, for such it was now formerly began to do its work. In 1850 the theological department, headed by the Dr James C. Boyce, was changed into a separate institution and was moved across the river to McBee street. This, though a wise move, was a tremendous blow to Furman as it took some of her strongest professors and all of the money that had been designed for the theological department. It was in this year that Dr. James C. Furman became president of the University. Following the Civil War the University reopened its doors but it was only through an intense struggle that the institution was kept going. Lack of finances was a constant sword over the heads of all connected with the college until in 1885 and 1886 under the leadership of R IL Griffith, a considerable endowment fund was raised. This period was under the leadership of Dr. Manly, who had succeeded Dr. Furman in 1881. He held this position until 1807 when Dr. Montague assumed the presidency. During Dr Montague's term of only five years, the Alumni Hall. Fitting School, and Montague Hall were built. Dr. F M. Pot eat became president in 1005. In this year also. SI 25.000. through the agency of Rev. Joel I Allen, was subscribed to the endowment fund. In !‘ 05. Mr Carnegie offered to give $15,000 for a library building, provided that $15,000 be raised here at Furman for the endowment of the library. Dr. Judson met this offer and so created the Charles II. Judson Endowment Fund for the library. Dr. Judson died in January. 1907. after having given his life to the University. He had served as professor, acting president, dean, and treasurer, throughout fifty-six years. In his will Dr Judson made the Library Endowment Fund the residuary legatee of his estate. The University is now under the guidance of Dr. W. J. McGlothlin. During his administration the size of the institution has greatly increased going from two hundred students to over five hundred: the endowment has grown from over S200.000 to over $2,000,000. departments of education and law have been added and full courses in pre medical work have been offered. In December. 1926. the centennial of the University was celebrated Speakers, scholars, and leaders in education came from os'er the country to rejoice with Furman in the celebration of passing this milestone of her history. Now Furman seems assured of a glorious future. The davs of despairing hope are passed and Furman is destined to become far greater and more influential than she has yet dreamed of.

He has made a good record as a student, especially when we consider that, besides having to master the language, he has done many outside things. He is a prodigy in linguistic work. Besides his native tongue, he can converse intelligently in French. Italian, Portugese and English. Above even his ability in the classroom, however, Ai.varkz has demonstrated his powers in the realm of atTection, for h s is a woman lover. Perhaps it is not too much to say that this captivating romancer from the South has in his heart the warmest affection for all of the fair sex. but despite his universality he certainly has the |iowcr of socialization. . Alvarkz has also been active in other fields, having made the Glee Club during all of his three years, and being elected to several of the cultural club of the campus. He plans to complete his education and then go back to South America to spend his life in Christian service.

Having played on two championship baseball teams at McColl High, Jim” entered Furman in the fall of 1922 and earned a | osition on the Championship Freshman team here. The next baseball season found him occupying his same place at shortstop on the Purple varsity squad, and so highly was he esteemed that he was elected captain for the following year. However. Jim played more than the allotted number of games in professional ball during the summer and was ruled ineligible for college baseball during the remaindtt of his career at Furman. Jim was forced to drop out of school for one year and during that time he was signed by the St. Ia uis Cardinals to which club he belongs at present.

There is no one like him. A friend to everyone, an athlete, a jolly good sport, a Iwlicvcr in Furman and a staunch supporter for everything that stood for Furmans progress. Such arc the characteristics of “Jim. For four years he ha been a friend to every Furman man.

Chape accomplished an ambition that he has nourished for his entire life at Furman of being the outstanding star on the victorious team of the Carolina-Furman game. This he was.

Not every fairy-tinct and tinted bloom. Not all the birds that trilling, lilting sing Can e'er dispel this subtle gloom That lays its tendril-fingers on the heart Of us who come in spring to part. These years, four cups, rose-blown, wine-filled, and sweet Are drained. We’ve drunk the dregs, and yet our souls Remain unquenched—and still afar our goals. Fair-shimmering, silver-tipped, and in retreat. To us it seems that niggard nature doles Her treasures. And we champ, impatient youth. To quickly compass all the realms of truth. Upon the threshold now a slant we stand. Young eaglets poised for unpredestined flight: Before us lies the purple-tinted height. The unattained, the topless mountain land. Our wings are strong—the cups were filled with might! And though we part, and though the flowered paths of June Are barren to our melancholy eye. Strong-willed to conquest let us fly! —Poet. I'age One Hundred Thirty-six HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS jOUR years! Hour years of joy and sorrow, conflict and repose, knowledge and ignorance. Qj Four years of success and failure, of hope and disappointment, of yearning and attainment. Four short years, but four gloriously golden, happy, meaningful years. So on the threshold of a new life, the life that we have been preparing for. we pause but a moment to look backward. From now on we march breastforward.” Four years ago we were at the beginning of college, feeling none of college spirit, none of love for Alma Mater, none of the thrill of college life. Since then we have lived, lived intensely. We have tasted life and found it good. We have succeeded sometimes, and we have failed often, but we have always tried, tried hard, tried to live and do. As we look back we feel that we have contributed something, that we have left Furman some little better for our having been here. A class' contribution cannot be measured entirely by what it has done, but rather should take into account the change in ideals and values that it has brought about. We feel that wc have left something that will help Furman give better, nobler men to the world. Of the things we have done in a material way. there are two achievements that stand out in the history of the class. In our freshman year we were partially responsible for the introduction of the honor system, which, though by no means perfect, has increased in efficiency, and is becoming one of the great factors of student government. College sentiment is growing toward the strict enforcement, by the students, of this system. In our sophomore year we standardized the Furman University class ring, making it uniform. in order that a Furman ring could be recognized anywhere. It was a move necessary for some time, but needing the impetus for the final step. During our junior and senior years we have lived even more deeply, learning to love and honor Furman, honor her ideals and her glories. Our senior year has especially been marked with success. In football, the varsity, captained by Troy Thomas, for the third consecutive year won the state championship of South Carolina, and. not content with that, forced the University of Georgia to bow before it. In basketball the varsity went through the season undefeated in the state, a record never before attained by Furman. In Glee Club competition. Furman achieved extraordinary success. The club first won the state championship in Columbia, then the southern championship in Greenville, and finished by attaining fifth place in the national contest in New York. Never before had any Furman organization been recognized as Southern champions. It is with something accomplished, be it but small, that we turn from the past and resolutely face our new life and unlimited future. It is somewhat fearful, somewhat terrifying, knowing now that wc face life in its reality, but the very knowledge is challenging. It is commencement. beginning of life, the life that means intensely and means good. It is commencement. the beginning of struggle, of finding ourselves in the world, of striving for success. It is commencement, the beginning of lives of service, of money-making, of pleasure, of profession. It is the beginning of life itself. I-ife. challenging, mysterious. Onward! —Historian.

Poland HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS HS. the “wise fools” stage has passed and left us in utter despair of ever possessing such a name again. It seemed ages from rats to sopho- mores. yet the goal was finally reached, and at that time we were given the wonderful title Wise Fools.” We kept it for a year, only to find that we could keep it with distinction no longer, for there were others as wise as we. and some as foolish. Receiving the title juniors at the beginning of the session of '26-’27. we entered into our work with seriousness and a great sense of loyalty to our Alma Mater. Although our crew has been considerably reduced since the fall of 24. the high standard of the classroom work has never been lowered. Several of our number have out distanced us. and have succeeded in making the last lap at Furman this year. In practically every extra-curricula activity on the campus, the juniors are well represented. In the literary society halls, they play a conspicuous part: several have shown their ability in debating, declaiming and public speaking. We also have some singers, the Glee Club claiming seven of our number. At least a part of the brilliant record of the Furman Glee Club for the last three years is due to the contributions of the junior song birds. The most important contribution of our class has been in the field of sports. Our athletes are numerous. One junior is on the tennis team, eight on the basketball squad, four on the track team, and fifteen on the football squad. Flie basketball squad is, with only a very few exceptions, composed entirely of juniors. This means that for at least one more year there will be a flashy indoor Hurricane. Henry Brabham, a junior, is captain of the team this year. Our greatest achievement in sports, however, has been on the gridiron. Fifteen of our number arc on the squad, and seven of them are regulars. Four Furman men were on the All-State eleven, and two of the four were juniors. Pipkins and Carson. The fifteen on the squad are: Byrne. Carson. Clary. Crawford. Ferguson. Funderburk. Grady. Hurt. Fancy. McNinch. Perry. Pipkins. Pulley. Rawl and Sewell. And now with a good record behind us. we look forward with pleasure to the on-coming year with the expectation that it will be the best we shall have at Furman. — I IlSTORIAN.

'VCN Regardless of the tireless efforts of the teachers in various county and city high schools there could still be easily detected in the beaming faces of this curious and motley array of individuals a certain predominance of nature's favorite color—greenness. Perhaps it might be added that after the heated reception given us by the omnipresent sophomores the greenness changed to royal purple. After undergoing the usual trend of freshman year events, the Good Ship '29 came at last to the much longed for shores of Sophomoredom. Upon the termination of three months' shore leave the crew of the stout ship '29 assembled once more. Unlike the traditionary sophomores who imagine themselves so all-wise and who strut about like vainglorious lords of creation, the members of this class, under the competent guidance of H. C. Robert, president: Frank Davis, vice-president: C. I.. Rasor. secretary: and G. D. Powell, treasurer, came back imbued with the good old Furman spirit and quietly and unassumingly entered into the various activities of the college. They brought honor to their class and to Old Furman.” On the gridiron, the names of Blount. Cox. Capps. Coble. Davis. Fairley. Lemmond. and Schneider are readily associated with the many hard-fought victories of the 1926 Purple Hurricane. On the basketball team Burts and Davis well represented their class. On the baseball team there will doubtless be several of our members who will hold first string positions, and there will be many sophomores bearing the purple F on the cinder path. Not in athletics alone, however, have members of this class shown their ability, for. in the various academic clubs, societies, religious clubs. Glee Club, and band may be found many of our classmates taking an active part. Lastly we admit that our class ranks high in scholarship, that many of the leaders are chosen from among us and that Furman University would be a dreary place without us. Yet our unobtrusive natures forbid us to dwell at length upon our unusual abilities. —Historian.

II ARM.V Smith Thompson VV ADR Page One Hundred Seventy-fit ,- HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS NA TURE must have had an overabundant amount of chlorophyl for use at Furman last September, for the incoming freshman class was brilliantly luxuriant in that most characteristic of colors—green. Not more so. perhaps, than many other “rat'' classes, but its sparkling presence was nonetheless unmistakable. But greenness is a mark of life, and it is the live things that grow. With an enrollment of 164 students, recruited from a hundred high schools in South Carolina, and from institutions in Tennessee. North Carolina. Georgia. Florida, and half a dozen other states in the Union, the class of 1930 pulled anchor and set sail upon the stormy seas of college life. Ambitions were varied, but the port, graduation, was the single goal of all. Two terms and more have elapsed since the attractive caps of purple and white were donned upon the completion of pretentious formal exercises of initi ation. Much of the greenness has worn off; the bloom of collegiate wisdom is reflected in almost every face projected by a rat. A broadening of vision, intellectual and social, has been made possible by friendly cooperation from upperclassmen. A new vista of opportunity and happiness, friendship and service, has been opened up for the freshman, and he looks forward to the remaining three years in college as the field for great adventures and experiments, bringing for him new knowledge, and fitting him better for his after-life. Freshmen this year have taken a prominent part in college activities, both inside and outside the classroom. One finds a splendid representation of them in the literary societies, departmental clubs, publication staffs, the band, and the Glee Club. In athletics they have played noticeable roles, many of them giving exceptional promise of stardom later, on varsity aggregations. Class organization was delayed until late in the second term, but after the election of officers, fidelity, cordiality and a singleness of purpose—service—has marked every move of the class. T. L. Crosby, of Meridian. Miss., was named president; A. J. Hurt. Cheraw. S. C.. vice-president: Kenneth Cass. Greenville. S. C.. secretary; Henry Huff. Greenville. S. C.. treasurer: Paul Havely, Morristown. Tenn.. historian. A history, written at this time of freshman class endeavors, both individual and as a group, could not possibly do its members justice, for their talents are varied, their ambitions are high, and their contributions to Furman have only begun. They will be heard from again, more impressively, more thoroughly, more successfully. —Historian. Page One Hundred Seventy six LAW SCHOOL OFFICERS A. L.

Furman and his co-workers. Like the beginning of the University in 1826 the beginning of the Law School was obscure. J. Wilbur Hicks of Florence. S. C.. a graduate of Furman and of University of Chicago Law School, the present Dean was chosen as the first Dean. The first class was small and the Law School was quartered in any room in Richard Furman Hall that at the time for class was available. With the aid of the J. B. Duke Foundation, the untiring efforts of those connected with it have caused the Furman Law School to grow to its present size and value. It now occupies three classrooms in the basement of the library. The faculty is composed of Dean Hicks. Professor John L. Plyler. and Professor J. L. Johnston. Professor Plyler is a graduate of the Harvard Law School and Professor Johnston graduated from University of Chicago Law School. Every graduate of the school has been successful in passing the State bar examination. The law library has approximately L000 volumes, a large number of which have come through the generosity of Hon. Joseph A. Brown of Anderson. Milton Smith of Greenville. Haynesworth ft Haynesworth of Greenville, and G. W. S. Hart and others. The aim now is to gain admission to the American Association of Law Schools and with this in view the Furman Law School is pushing forward. Parte One Hundred flighty right A.% ML ©IE, i .

There is no one place on the campus where the boys can C L get together for more pleasure and fun than the swimming pool. Throughout the winter mornings and afternoons whoops and yells arc heard resounding from the tank. Just to close our eyes and listen it would be easy to see and hear again the familiar “ole swimming hole.” with its glistening bodies tumbling from the tree tops, the splashes as they hit the water and the accompanying whoopecs. The pool is one of the important departments of the gym. which was given Furman by the citizens of Greenville in 1921. It is one of the largest and most attractive college pools in the South. As it is heated, students are free to use it throughout the year. In the Summer School both the boys and girls and the men and women are able to forget the sultry heat of the day by a plunge in the pool. This is the first year that Furman has had an organized swimming team. It appears now. before the season opens, that this team will be as good a representative of the University as the other teams, despite its being he first year. John P. Young and Jimmie Blount are two of as graceful divers as are to be found in the South. Both have won recognition in amateur circles during the summer months. John Young is also an exceptionally good middle distance swimmer. Russ Rabb. John Pully. Bum Wilkins. Tom Callaway. Mott Calhoun. Dick Bentz. Charlie Burts. O. D. Kelly. G. J. Benet. and R. F:. Freeman are contestants for the other events. Although the schedule has not been completely arranged, meets will probably be held with The Citadel. Duke University. Clcmson. Spartanburg Athletic Club and Georgia Tech.

It is a very hard task to choose the prettiest among a bevy of so many handsome ones, and harder still to judge beauty from a photograph only. However, I have done the best I possibly can and trust you will be completely satisfied with my selection. I have placed the number on the buck of each photograph, according to th way I think they should rank.
