G15 'Q- EDICATIO N APPRECIATIVE MEMORY of his devoted r service to HAMPDEN-SYDNEY COLLEGE for many . . . years and his profound scholarship, of his noble qualities and lofty character, of his remarkable abilities as a teacher, of his type of that being which men call gentleman, we reverently dedicate The Thirty-Fifth Volume of THE KALEIDOSCOPE To our late lamented friend and professor HENRY CLAY BROCK I 9 I DEN SYD Henry C. Brock, B. Lit., D. Lit., LL. D. Integer vitae scelerisque purus. N THE kaleidoscope of life the law of change prevails and the forces and actors, as a rule, reassemble themselves constantly and swiftly into new shapes. When, therefore, we find an institution like Hampden-Sydney that, with fair consistency, resists change and maintains for years its distinctive characteristics, we wonder. But when we remember that outstanding personalities have influenced and moulded the institution's life and policy for long consecutive periods, we, in a measure, understand its conservative attitude and tendencies. It is really remarkable how many of Hampden-Sydney's faithful teachers have stood by the old College for long years in spite of hard work and small pay. Charles Martin U847-18711 helped to carry it through some of the most depressing periods in its history, L. L. Holladay, for thirty-six years H855-l89IJ was a professor whom our students loved, Walter Blair H859-l896J was our ideal of a classical scholar: James R. Thornton, here for twenty-eight years H883-l9l l D, looms large in the memories of hundreds of alumni, H. C. Bagby's marvelous memory and straight thinking are the admiration of his classes to-day as they have been since l892. For a longer period C1886-F9281 than any of these Dr. Henry C. Brock served the College. As active and emeritus professor, he was here for nearly one-third of Hampden-Sydney's corporate existence. His life and work have been so frequently and fully set forth in the publications of the College, and in the press of the State, that recapitulation seems superliuous. The briefest outline must suffice. Son of Robert King Brock and Mildred Ragland, he was born in Rich- mond, Virginia, january 26, IS45. When the Civil War began he was attending Richmond College, IS59-l86l g later he was a student for a year at Randolph-Macon College, then located at Boydton, Virginia. As soon as he reached the age for enlistment he volunteered for service in the Confed- erate States Army, joining a troop of King William cavalry in General Rooney l..ee's brigade. Severely wounded at lVlalone's Crossing, in 1864, the young soldier was for months an invalid and was never again able to rejoin his command. When his health was sufficiently restored, in 1867, he accepted a position in King William County, where he taught a small neighborhood school, board- ISI ing around among his patrons, as was the custom of the time. He thoroughly enjoyed this work and his association with the good people of the county and with his old comrades of the Ninth Virginia Cavalry. ln the fall of 1869 he entered the University of Virginia and, in l872, received the degree of Bachelor of Literature, meantime holding the position of assistant to Colonel William E.. Peters, the professor of Latinq From this time on Mr. Brock was a teacher of young men: l872-l879, associate in the Kenmore Academy at Amherst, Virginiag I879-1881, associate in the Charlottesville, Virginia, High School, 1881-1886, head master of the University School in Charlottesville. In l886, when Dr. W. S. Currell resigned the chair of English, Political Science and History at Hampden-Sydney, Professor Brock was chosen as his successor. ln l889, when Dr. W. H. Bocock went to the University of Cieorgia, Professor Brock was transferred to the chair of Cireek and French, for which he was peculiarly fitted by his splendid training under Drs. B. L. Csildersleeve and Schele de Vere, his old masters at the University. This arrangement continued until 1911, when the French was given to Professor J. A. Clarke and the Greek was left in Professor Brock's hands. ln I9I8, having reached the age limit, he was made professor emeritus of Creek, and retired from active class room work. After this he lived quietly at E.stcourt, his home here, among his books and Howers, dispensing a courteous hospitality, mingling with his friends, interested in affairs-local, national and inter- national-the home always pervadecl with the atmosphere of culture and genial friendship which the master unconsciously created. After he passed his eighty-fourth birthday Dr. Brock's strength failed, gradually but markedly, and the end came April 30, l928. While teaching at Amherst, Dr. Brock married Miss Mary Carter Irving, daughter of Honorable R. K. Irving and Delia Eldridge, of Rolfeton, Buckingham County, Virginia, a lady who will be remembered by our older alumni as marked by rare charm of person and force of character. There were four children-two sons, Dr. H. l. Brock, of the staff of the New 'York Times, and Honorable R. K. Brock, of Hampden-Sydney, and two daughters, Mrs. H. C. Thornton, of Asheville, North Carolina, and Miss Delia E. Brock, the presiding genius of our Infirmary. Dr. H. C. Brock and Dr. R. A. Brock were brothers-a pair hard to match for literary taste and achievement-the one a scholar of wide attainments and cultureg the other an antiquarian and historian of national reputation. l9l Rs 2,41 1 m f DEN iff., SYD Though he was, of all men, most modest and retiring, Professor Brock's scholarship was widely recognized. Forty years after his student days, one of his fellow students said: The rest of us wrote fairly correct exercises: Brock wrote French. A distinguished alumnus, widely known as a man of intellectual power, once said: Every faculty should contain at least one scholar. At Hampden-Sydney, Professor Brock deserves the name. Austin College conferred the degree of Doctor of Literature and Randolph-Macon that of Doctor of Laws. Dr. Brock had an intuitive appreciation of the exact shade of meaning inherent in words which made his translations from foreign tongues seem well-nigh perfect renderings of the sense of the original. Master of English, he chose his words with meticulous care-writing and rewriting-never satisfied until he had hit upon the turn and phrase which precisely expressed the thought intended. l-le possessed, too, the rare gift of suggestion in language and his style attained a richness, a beauty and a force far beyond the literal meaning of his words. Of Dr. Brock, as a man and as a friend, we need not speakg those who knew him loved him and appreciated him to the full. To those who did not know him, a true characterization would seem fulsome eulogy. Whiat he meant to Hampden-Sydney was expressed by Dr. A. D. Watkins in his own inimi- table way, as follows: To most of the living alumni, Hampden-Sydney, with- out Professor Brock, seems to lack its peculiar character. I-le represented much of the distinctly Virginian cast of the institution-breeding, gentility, manners, reserve, classical scholarship, chivalry-much that we should like to believe is of Hampden-Sydney's essence . . . Whatever new may come to the College-and much that is new is greatly needed-the loss of the 'tender grace of a day that is dead' is a sad loss indeed. ln times when refinement may have lost its flower, and honor is an oldish word, and chivalry seems not desired by womankind, some ask, with great concern, 'will it still be said that Hampden-Sydney produces gentlemen? H We, who loved him, miss our loyal friend-so sincere, so courteous, so gentle. Quis dcsiderio sit pudor aut modus Tam cari capitis? -W. H. Wi-1mNc, JR.

D. Sf , VERY AC-E. and every religion has held in the highest esteem its priest and preacher. The tribe of Levi was considered especially . '- blest because it was divinely chosen to attend the priestly duties of the nation of lsrael. ln the years of the Divided Kingdom the prophet of Jehovah was accorded veneration by all those who were true to their God. ln the Christian era the ministers of Christ have been regarded as divinely called. ln our own Southland, many a home has set aside a preacher's chamber -a modern counterpart of the prophet's chamber set aside by the great woman of Shunemn for Elisha. The preacher, especially in the rural districts, is his community leader: he is usually one of the most edu- cated men in the neighborhood, and before the present school system was adopted, was often the teacher. ln times of sickness and sorrow he is the comforter, he rejoices with the happy, he buries the loved dead and adds the consolation which can come only from God's'elect. As the minister, so the teacher is the object of veneration and esteem. The one is the instructor in matters spiritual, the other in things material. Moses Waddell combined in a rare degree the duties of minister and teacher. The annals of the Presbyterian Church boasts no more honored name than that of Waddell. The history of education in the South would be incomplete without a discussion of the contribution of this great man. John Caldwell Calhoun wrote that he might justly be considered as the father of classical education in the upper country of South Carolina and Georgia. The long list of distinguished pupils, to be named in part later, bears testimony to his abilities as teacher. A vessel bound for Georgia, but baffled by adverse winds and weather. docked at Charleston, South Carolina. On board was William Waddell and family, immigrants from the neighborhood of Belfast, lreland. The Waddells tarried in Charleston but a short time and ere long permanently settled in Rowan fnow lredellj County, North Carolina, on the banks of the South Yadkin River. Here Moses Waddell was born, July 29, l770. Regarding his name, Judge Longstreet says: 'il-le was the last of three sons born on the same spotg and so confident were his parents that he should not survive his birth a single day that, when they found themselves mistaken, they gave him the name of the patriarch who was providentially preserved in his infancy. Waddell first attended a school about three miles from his home, in l 777- l778. Here he learned to read and to write a neat hand. ln 1778 Moses ll9l entered the Latin Department of Clio's Nursery, a grammar school established through the instrumentality of the Reverend james Hall, a Presbyterian minister. It was due to the importunity of friends that lVloses became a student here. For Mr. William Waddell for some time objected because he had money neither to purchase books nor to bear the expenses of such a course of study. Ar last he yielded, trusting Providence to provide the means. Mr. James lVlcE.wen, hrst, then lVlr. Francis Cummin, later an eminent divine, were the teachers. The British incursions into the vicinity caused the suspension of the school from May, l780, to April, l782. ln l784, after he had studied Latin and Greek, E.uclid's Elements, Geography, Moral Philosophy and Criticism, Waddell left Clio's Nursery. ln October, I784, Waddell became teacher in a country school some fifteen miles from home. ln I787 he established a school in Greene County, Georgia. lndian troubles caused the closing of his school. When quiet had been restored in Greene in I 788, his parents moved down from North Carolina and he opened a new school. That same year he received his first permanent religious impressionsg he resolved to become a minister and, in l790, he entered Hampden-Sydney College, in Prince Edward County, Virginia. Here he was a member of the Union Literary Society. He g-raduated in September, 1791. He was licensed to preach by the Hanover Presbytery the following year. After he had completed his college course, Waddell taught school in Columbia County, Georgia. His first wife, whom he married in I795, was Miss Catherine Calhoun, daughter of Patrick Calhoun and sister of John C. Calhoun. She lived about a year after the marriage. He married, in IBOO, Miss Elizabeth Woodson Pleasants, of Halifax County, Virginia. On leaving Columbia, in I8OI , he opened a school at Vienna, Abbeville District, South Carolina. Three years later he moved to Willington and there established the celebrated Willington Academy, said to be the most famous of ante-bellum schools. Among his pupils were Hugh Swinton Legare, the brilliant essayist and Secretary of State in the Cabinet of President Tylerg John Caldwell Calhoun, South Carolina's great Senator and the militant defender of the rights of the states, james Louis Pettigru, the cultured barrister and leading Unionist of South Carolina, mentioned by Hayne as a regular visitor to that rendezvous of the literali and savanls of Charleston, Lord John Russell's bookstore, Judge A.

SY a 1 leader, member of lVlonroe's Cabinet, and an unsuccessful contender for the Presidency of the United States in I824g George lVlcDuHie, Governor of South Carolina, United States Senator, eloquent apologist for states rights, and Butler, Calhoun's able colleague in the Senate. What an influence Hampden-Sydney had on political, literary and educational life in the South through these pupils of Waddell's. Think how they must have imbibed that intangible, indefinable something-the traditional l-lampden-Sydney spirit- from this great teacher. Yea, verily, Hampden-Sydney may well claim these great men as her grandsons-these leaders who sat at the feet of that noble alumnus-the C-amaliel of the South. While at Willington, Waddell re- ceived the degree of Doctor of Divinity from the College of South Carolina, in ISO7. l-lis Academy at Willington was in the country, far from town, it was noted for its simple life and strict discipline. ln I8l9 Dr. Waddell entered on his duties as President of the University of Georgia. Dr. Alonzo Church wrote: The circumstances of the University were . . . peculiarly embarrassing . . . They were such as few men would be able to meet, without ultimately abandoning the object in despair. And to the wisdom and prudence and reputation of that good man is Georgia very largely indebted for the respectability and usefulness of her State College. The success which attended his efforts in raising the institution so rapidly as he did to respectability has been, to many, inexplicable. But to those who understand his character that success is by no means surprising. l-le accepted the office after repeated solicitation and only upon the fullest con- viction that God had called him to this field of labor. Perhaps few men, in all the business of life, more prayerfully inquired as to the path of duty, than Dr. Waddell. And by the path of duty I mean the glory of God in the advance- ment of the Recleemer's Kingdom. ln 1829 Dr. Waddell resigned the Presi- dency of the University. This closed his preceptional labors of two score and five years. Alexander H. Stephens paid a glowing tribute to Waddell's ability as a teacher: ln his insight into the character of boys, the constitution of their minds, their capacities and aptitudes and in drawing out and develop- ing their faculties by proper training and discipline and government, he had few, if any, superiors in the United States. After Waddell retired from active teaching he continued in the ministry for several years. While a teacher, he preached regularly. Few Sabbathsf' according to Church, ufound him out of the pulpit. l-le taught because he believed that he could in this way best support the Kingdom of Christ. Punctual he was and diligent. The most adverse weather could not deter him from 1211 keeping an appointment. Calhoun bears witness that he was pious, zealous, well versed in theology, plain, simple and earnest. Regarding his influence, it was widespread. Judge Longstreet wrote: The fruits of his vinyard are scattered far and wide through most of the Southern States and long have they been seen in rich luxuriance in the Capitol of the Union. Indeed, it would be hard to name the place of rank which his pupils have not occupied . . . but l do fully believe that, without the impulse which he gave to their talents, many of them who rose to high rank would never have been heard of. Calhoun, Legare, Crawford, McDuffie, Butler, Longstreet, Pettigru! And a son of old Hampden-Sydney taught them! The spirit of Hampden-Sydney was carried by this alumnus to the lower South, there to be the inspiration of the great men of that region. Two sons of Waddell became celebrated and able teachersg one, James Pleasants Waddell, was Professor of Latin and Greek at the University of Georgiag another, John Newton Waddell, was Professor of Latin and Greek at the University of Mississippi and President of LaGrange College. Moses Waddell had another connection with the Prince Edward College-his daughter, Miss janetta Waddell, married Dr. Archibald Alexander, fourth President of Hampden-Sydney. Several of her descendants became great ministers and teachers. What a blessing Moses Waddell has been to mankind. Longstreet said of Waddell's Christian experience: As a Christian his character was unexceptional. I-le was not without the Christian's trialsg and these, for some years after he embraced the Cross, were uncommonly severeg but, as the surges that break over the coral reef only add brilliance to its native beauty, so these trials but added lustre to the 'beauty of his holinessf His piety burned with a steady flame . . . l-le was active and constant in the discharge of his ministerial duties and he shrunk from no labor which his ecclesiastical relations imposed upon him. After Dr. Waddell retired from the Presidency of the University of Georgia he lived at Willington. In IS36 he suffered a stroke of palsy. Three years later he was taken to the home of his son, Professor james Pleasants Waddell, at Athens, Georgia. Here he died, July Zl, l840. Of him how appropriately can it be said: Servant of Cod, well done: Rest from thy loved employ, Thy battle ended, victory won, Enter thy Master's joy. -THE EDITORS.

Throughout his four years here he has well proved his worth on the campus by his wide range of activities and by his diligence and conscien- tiousness in all his undertakings. He is a hard worker and his faithful efforts have not been without reward. His managership of the 1928 Football Team displayed his capacity for work and his shrewd business ability. But along with it all he has found time for his studies. a fact to which his high grades attest. His pleasant smile, cheery greeting and his ever willingness to befriend his companions have endeared him to the hearts of many who predict for him a bright future. l25l WILLIAM HODCES BAKER, JR. Norfolk, Virginia K Eg I3 UNION LITERARY SOCIETY German Club: Student Council PlGGY In Piggy's brief sojourn of three years with us he has shown his ability in many phases of college life and activities, establishing a most enviable record. Being an applicant for a degree in three years is in itself no small job, but Baker has carried it off with honors and has had time for activities and social mixing as well. One never catches Piggy in other than a playful mood for he is always full of good humor and fun, but under it is a vein of seriousness of purpose which has stood him in good stead. One evidence of the trust placed in his judgment and character by his classmates was his election to the Student Council where he exhibited his broadmindedness and keen sense of justice. His winning disposition has made for him many friends and these fortunate ones, who are not few in number, have found in him a true, loyal and pleasant companion. l26l .A , , HAMPDEN- 1 QQ SYDNEY HENRY HOOVER BEAR Churchville.

BUTCH Butch is a living exemplilication of the fact that a man can be a real he-man and a gentleman at the same time. He has amply displayed his ability to give and take hard knocks on the gridiron where his clear head and fighting spirit have spelled defeat for many a worthy foe. But Blanton is by no means a one-track man. His tall, athletic build and his easy nonchalance have marked him as a real social lion whenever he has ventured forth into social circles.

Although he has spent a large proportion of his time at college in the Science Hall in the pursuit of lore among the test tubes and microscopes he has yet found time to malce himself a well-known figure in town at Shannon's and Sz-1m's.

Carpenter is another one of those tall, dashing young men for which his native town, the Capital of the Confederacy, is justly renowned. This boy has verily proved himself a second Demosthenes, or better still, another Patrick Henry. We can never forget his passionate pleas in regard to sex equality. And speaking of sex, that is one line in which Carpenter has proved himself a real Ph. D. Hampden-Sydney cannot help but regret the loss of this man. His whole-hearted good nature and natural ability coupled with his capacity for hard work have marked him as a man of real worth. l3ll ROBERT EMMETTE CHUMBLEY, JR.

MDICKN The name, Catlin, is familiar to every Hampden-Sydney student and resident of the hill. It has a variety of meanings, but when heard on the campus it always stands for the same true type of Hampden- Sydney man. If common sense, seriousness, steadiness of purpose, patience and perseverance count for anything in this world, we predict that Dick will carve a niche in the Hall of Fame that even time will have a hard task in smoothing over. Some people study to pass exams and to receive credits: others study largely because they appreciate the true worth of knowledge and are desirous of better litting themselves for the s uggles of life. Dick is a staunch member of the latter class. He is a true friend. one to sacrifice muc on the Altar of Friendship, and, by virtue of this admirable trait, he has become endeared to many.

These words will ever bring back to our minds the remembrance of Jack, who for four years aided so greatly the forensic success of Hampden-Sydney by his appearances on the platform. Many are the times when he has been the reason for his Alma Mater emerging successful from verbal battles with other institutions. jack has also made great progress in the oratorical line, and he has been student instructor in English. His frequent trips north. and frequent appearance on the dance floor have made him a well known figure in the society circles of the College. and although he is somewhat reserved, those who know him greatly cherish his friendship. jack will be greatly missed on the Hill, but we know he will make a success in whatever he undertakes. l56l .,f 'l N - rr' 'K . f . , ' pw i w ,, s A. 3 . -. rl , L W i ' ,Q .N . .

The cause of his successful relationships is largely due to his unassuming, con- tented personality. One should not assume John to he a book bug for he often was seen in the busy streets of Farmville. Wade was no ladies' man, seldom frequenting the portals of S. T. C. It was. perhaps, the aversion to the fairer sex which caused John to become so skilled in the ultra-male sport of pool, In John the school is sending forth a steady, unconceited, long-suffering, hard worker, who will, we are sure, meet with his due reward. l63l 'W--' 1 J ' film?

Sincerity of purpose, combined with loyalty to his friends, typify Worden's character as well as any words could. It is this sincerity which has led him to his position of prominence in campus activities. so widely varied. By way of introducing himself to Hampden-Sydney. Worden made the football team his freshman year. He early began to show his characteristics of leadership to his classmates who. in his junior year. elected him to the presidency of his class. On Death Valley Worden is unsurpassed as a football player. For four years he has given his best to uphold the standard of his Alma Mater's athletic records and as captain he successfully led the Tigers through one of their hardest seasons.

Scotland, but for the six strenuous years prior to the beginning of the American Revolution the patriot president of early Princeton: he is the man and Hampden-Sydney is the College. The Precocious Youth is his son. Old john had kept things humming in Scotland in defense of the rights of his fellow Scots and was all ready for continued activity in America. He was among the most ardent advocates for the Declaration of Independence and one of the most enthusiastic signers. The English did not like him-they did not like him a bit! They said he was the most rebellious of all the rebels! He was a dominant figure in the Continental Congress throughout the Revolution and Washington's most able and consistent defender even in the darkest days at Valley Forge. Virginians had liked him, had felt his influence, had sent their sons to Princeton to be educated by him. His graduates were prominent in Virginia. One of them was Light Horse Harry Lee. Another was james Madison, the Father of the Constitution. There were a great many others and most of them were working for Virginia. This tale centers around one of them who came to Southside Virginia. Samuel Stanhope Smith had not only brought a degree from Princeton to Virginia, but had added to that commendable villainy by bringing President Witherspoon's daughter as his wife and helpmate. Probably because he felt that a college president's daughter might get homesick in the then Virginia backwoods so far from the classic shades of her father's campus, he founded a college of his own. He named it for john Hampden and Algernon Sydney because he, too, was a son of liberty-Anne's father had inspired him to be a son of liberty. But the tale is not yet told. The tale is that john Witherspoon had a young son, David, who had shown a very early interest in the raiment of the flock rather than the flock. lt is authentically stated that this David entered the Freshman Class of Princeton at the age of ten, when most of us are proud of fourth grade standing. At fourteen Princeton presented him a portion of the raiment of the flock and created him Bachelor of Arts. QHe had no reexaminations to takej But the interesting thing, the amazing thing, is that at between fifteen and sixteen he wended his way southward and, at the age when most of us are glad to be juniors in high school, he became a member of the Faculty at Hampden-Sydney. That he was qualified to take care of the position is indicated by the fact that his correspondence with his father for the year following his going to Hampden-Sydney is still in existence and most of it is made up of long letters in Latin and French. The old Scotchman is proud of his son, but his son must never know it. His advice is the advice of a father who would like to trust his son entirely. but is hesitant-hesitant because the boy is young and eager and may be foolhardy. It would be well to sell the horse he had ridden from New Jersey lest it be a burden, lest it encourage idleness. Yet, the young professor is all man. The Revolution was on and the country needed volunteers. The patriot lads from Hampden-Sydney. fifteen, sixteen, seventeen years old, volunteered in a body. As they marched away to Williamsburg in Hampden-Sydney's first colors, the gray hunting caps and the purple shirt, David Witherspoon, now seventeen, was the first lieutenant and second in command. He carried in his head and heart the old Scotch father's advice penned to him from Princeton: Let there be decency in your outward carriage, reserve and modesty in your conversation and humility in your heart. -FREEMAN H.

Numerically the season cannot be called I . y I a success but, when the quality of play is taken into consideration and the record of each game is looked into, every Tiger is proud of the showing the team made and is proud to say that that team represented his Alma Mater. During the season nationally famous football teams were met, coming from schools with student bodies many times greater than the Tiger institution, yet in no game did Hampden-Sydney fail to make a creditable showing, displaying always that characteristic indomitable fighting spirit. It has always been the policy of Coach Charlie Bernier, the man who has made the great teams of Hampden-Sydney possible and who has practically been the sole factor in placing the Tiger College on the athletic map, never to point for any one game, but to take each team as it appears on the schedule. Two outstanding accomplishments are to be credited to the I928 Tiger team: its brilliant showing against Cornell University, one of the foremost teams of the East, and its clear-cut victory over its traditional rival, the University of Richmond. In passing it would not be amiss to say that Hampden-Sydney is perhaps the most sought after of all small colleges by large institutions to be placed on their football schedule. After playing Cornell it was asked to return for a game the next season, and also in l929 the Tigers appear on the schedule of Colgate University. At the beginning of the year prospects for the team looked extremely gloomy, for fourteen members of last year's varsity squad were not available. In addition to this, no freshmen could be used to bolster up the great gaps as Hampden-Sydney had entered the conference which put a ban on freshmen participating on varsity teams. However, Coach Bernier, in his miraculous way, developed a representative team. After a brief period of preliminary training the Tigers opened the season in Lexington against the Flying Squadron of the Virginia Military Institute. Equipped with only a limited offense of a few plays, Hampden-Sydney made a great showing against the heavy team and until the last few minutes it was anybody's game, until the limited amount of Tiger material found itself pitted against the fresh reserves of the Institute. The score, V. M. I., I4g Hampden-Sydney, 7. Hampden-Sydney opened up the Virginia Polytechnic Institute game with a well nigh perfect defense but the game of last week had taken its toll in injuries and in the 1 1021 f . TI it ff? latter half the little Tiger's depleted squad's defense weakened and the Techmen walked away with the big end of a 32-7 victory. The thrilling feature of the game was when Ralph Willis, whirlwind Tiger halfback, received the kickoff and with the help of fault- less blocking, squirmed and twisted and sidestepped his way up the field ninety-two yards for a touchdown. The Cornell game was the first time a Hampden-Sydney team had ever played a large Eastern school and it was the concensus of opinion among the spectators that the Virginians outplayed the Big Red team for three and one half periods of the game, as the Cornelians were not able to push over its two winning touchdowns until the last four minutes of play. It was also stated that the Tigers were the best coached team to be seen on Schoellkoph Field in recent years. The feature of the game was the passing attack of the Garnet and Gray led by Willis, Peach and Lawson. The score, Cornell, IS: l-lampden-Sydney, 6. Hampden-Sydney triumphed over Rutherford College, of North Carolina, in the first home game by the score of I2 to 0. It resulted in a much stiffer encounter than was expected as the visitors presented a hard driving attack. The passing of the Tigers in the last stages proved the undoing of the Tarheels. The Tigers started the conference schedule by defeating Randolph-Macon, 39 to 6, at the Home Coming Day celebration. The game was played before the largest crowd ever to witness a game on Death Valley. Hampden-Sydney in this encounter showed its superiority in every department of play. During the contest practically every man on the Tiger squad was used. The Tiger's aerial attack reached its peak in this game. Lynchburg came to Death Valley with the Tigers as host and, playing the part of the faultless host, the Garnet and C-ray let the Hornets of the Hill City take an I8 to I2 victory. There is little to be said about this contest other than the Tigers were badly crippled and did not play up to form. The next Saturday came the Richmond game and with it Hampden-Sydney's most brilliant game of the season. Only once was the Tiger goal in danger of being crossed and in addition to crossing the Spider marker twice for thirteen points the Tigers played continually in Richmond territory. Tom Peach's punting was at its height and Captain Spec Worden played the most brilliant game of his checkered career. Blanton also came in for honors. In fact the whole team played a remarkable game. ln the hnal game of the season Hampden-Sydney, showing a reversal of form and the strain of a strenuous season, fell before the fast moving attack of William and Mary, 34 to 0. in 11031 R ,fw- Resume of Season STUART BARRETT WORDEN ...... .... .....

When the record is spoken of it is not entirely relative to scores, but to the spirit and Fight of a team that was never out. In every game of the N' T' V season the team fought and kept on fighting. The parts which composed this splendid Tiger machine were not large, but surely were efficient and experienced. If any stars were chosen the entire team would, necessarily, have to be named, but Captain Smith and Enoch Wooton surely played conspicuous ball. Prospects were bright to begin with, for there were six letter men back from the previous year. The early success of the team was somewhat hampered by the inliuenza quarantine, which caused a change of the entire schedule. In the first game, with the powerful Washington and Lee team, the representatives of the Garnet and Cray fell before a superior foe to the count of 45 to 26. William and Mary was next met. This game was one of the closest of the season: the Tigers winning by the narrow margin of 26 to 24. The next night, in the game with Richmond, fate reversed this score to favor the 'ispidersf' Roanoke and Lynchburg, the next two challengers, both met defeat at the hands of the team which had reached its stride. Weakened by the grind of examinations the Tigers fell before the attack of Wake Forest by the score of 32 to 20. Bridgewater advanced into the Bengal lair, only to be repulsed by a 36 to 25 score. Richmond, the champions, who were now riding down the home stretch and approaching the fmish passed Hampden-Sydney at the pace of 46 to 3l. A strong Emory and Henry team which had battled the Richmond champions, only to lose by a few points, fell before the onslaught of Bernier's men. This game marked the height of the teams scoring ability for they amassed 53 points to Emory and I-lenry's 31. -QV, ef' 1 1 it 4 Q P' f is ..., :7 - Zin! :5 f- One of the closest and most thrilling games of the year was the 26 to 23 defeat handed the Tigers by William and Mary in the second game. The score see-sawed back and forth during the entire second half and, unluckily, happened to be in William and lVlary's favor at the final gun shot. At Blacksburg the team defeated a powerful V. P. I. quintet by a close score, but was beaten the next night at Roanoke in a closely contested scrap with Roanoke College. The best game of the season was the one with Randolph-Macon on the local floor. Never have two teams fought harder than these teams did. One led for a few minutes only to be surpassed by the other. A frenzied crowd yelled the Tigers to a well earned victory: the Jackets falling, 43 to 38. In the next two games a tired, but fighting quintet fell by close scores. To summarize: the season was a great success and players, coach and the supporting student body are due credit. ll071 DEN SYD Basket Ball, 192 8-1929 RESUME OF SEASON HART MAXCY SMITH, Jn. ......... .

ASEBALL BASEBALL SQUAD . . Baseball, 1929 .QV df HE TIGERS have enjoyed a very successful baseball season, which at the start of practice in March had far. from a bright outlook. Coach Bernier, with only one varsity pitcher back in the lfold, had the bright prospect of making ' ' for himself two hurlers who could relieve John Hunt, the mainstay of the staff of last year. But at the outset the Tiger mentor gave every man on the team a chance to show his wares and, in the process of elimination, he weeded out of the brush two competent hurlers. The first to prove his worth was Easley Lee, a South Boston prospect, who turned back the highly famed University of Delaware ball club by the score of 8-5. Then, at Lynchburg, after the Hornets had procured six runs off of Hunt in the first inning, he brought Captain Davis from behind the plate and let him toe the rubber for the remainder of the game. He did it so well that the Tigers came from behind and won the game I2-9 and from what looked like a black and dismal season for the wearers of the Garnet and Gray emerged a team that could ably represent the tradition of Death Valley as the summary page will show. The Tiger team, for the first time in the last five years, has a group of ball-tossers that can hit the ball, and the wrecking crew, as Shiflet, Lawson, Davis and Marshall are well termed, have caused much annoyance to the opposing moundsmen. But these four alone are not the only ones of hitting prowess, for, in fact, there is not one on the whole team that can be called weak. They have all had their off days. but when hits have meant runs, that is when one outside of the above four has smacked the ball for the extra hit. Shiflet, the Tiger first baseman, is leading the team with an average of above .500. ln the Lynchburg game, he toed the plate five times and got as many hits from the delivery of the Hornet hurler. Lawson and Marshall are both hitting above .300, while the rest of the team's average will come close to 225. Another redeeming feature of this ball club, that was supposed not to have much chance, is their fielding, especially in the infield with Willis and Knight guarding the midway station. These two boys have pulled more double plays than any other two infielders in the state. Besides being proficient in this line they are both fast and adapted to going deep into their territory and snagging balls out of the ozone that looked like real bingles. The fielding of Price, Lawson and Marshall in the outfield has been very commendable. It is good to hold the best for last, and in the last but not least of the team's make-up has been the Bengal battery, composed of Captain Meb Davis and John Hunt. These two boys have worked in perfect unison for the last two seasons and due to their untiring effort on the firing line and knowledge of opposing batters have turned back the hopes of other coaches by their wonderful cooperation. l-lunt's best game was against the University of Richmond, the traditional enemies of the Tigers. Although defeated by the score of I-0, due to poor fielding, he only allowed three hits and sent ten back to the bench by the strike-out, and never allowed a free pass to the initial sack. He defeated Bridgewater 3-Z and allowed them only four hits. Hunt hails from South Boston, and as he is a sophomore, great things are looked for from this hurler before his days at Hampden-Sydney are over. Too much praise cannot be given Captain Davis and his bunch of ball-tossers. They have played under handicaps and have ably defended their Alma Mater under the careful and watchful tutelage of Coach Charles Yank Bernier. i iii 1 K Resume of Season JOHN GARNETT DAVIS .......

In the Im five meets the Tigers came off with the larger end of the score, losing only i A I 'T to Lynchburg College 64 to 61 in a very hotly contested meet which followed close on the contest with Emory and Henry. The three outstanding members of the squad deserve special mention for their unusual contribution to the season's success. Captain McLaughlin not only holds the College discus record of Hampden-Sydney College, but also broke the North Carolina record in the meet with Wake Forest, throwing the platter I32 feet. His versatility is shown by the score of points he received in the five meets, a total of I04. The other two men are Jones and Harris. Jones was a close runner up to Captain McLaughlin, scoring 98 points, while Harris ranks third with a score of 6l. The results of this year's track season should serve as an inspiration to any future Tiger team that laments its loss of participants in any particular sport. Their success is a memorial to hard training and sincere devotion to their taslc. RESUME OF SEASON HENRY WOODS MCLAUGHLIN. Jie... DAVID DENTON HULL ,...........,.. RICHARD McDEARMON ...........

So the burden of coaching has fallen upon Captain Smith, who has so faithfully and ably wielded the racket for four years. Around him and the veteran Tom Pumphrey the squad has been built. Tennis is the only sport that permits Freshman participation. The squad has been materially strengthened by drawing two regulars from this class, namely, Milburn and Talbot, both of whom have played very creditably and give great promise for the coming years. While the team cannot boast of a record such as some of our late teams, yet one glance at the schedule shows that the season has been a success. The squad has performed most creditably and has had the most loyal backing of the student body. RESUME or SEASON HART MAXCY SMITH, JR. ....... . HERBERT ELLIS KANN .... JAMES PALMER STOVER ....

WATKINS HEN the present student generation of Hampden-Sydney College goes swimming Q7 ,e ds in Venable's Pond possibly its divers from the college side of the Water may Q7 glimpse, between uplifted arms, some distance away on the bare, red hill V opposite, an irregular assemblage of various house units, with chimneys high and low, contingent upon a few shade trees. The musty historian would actually like to stop the gleaming diver, as he arches midair for his plunge, to insist: Sir, wait a minute before you go under! Your mind is as naked of historical interest as is your splendid body of trunks or apron: nevertheless, you should know that yon edifice of which you have, perhaps, subconscious vision, is in reality your grandmother-almag the mother, l mean, of your alma mater: in that house Hampden-Sydney College was founded! Now, sir, continue your dive. The haphazard collection of wooden house-boxes in question is in fact the growth by continual additions through many generations of an original story-and-a-half five- roomed home. This modest dwelling was built in I756 fthe year after his marriagel by a colonial settler in Southside Virginia, Nathaniel Venable. According to the habit of Virginia builders of that time, the smallness of the dwelling house was offset by the village of outhouses surrounding it. ln this backyard village was an office of the gentleman owner. lnto this ofhce, on February l, I775, came five members of Hanover Presbytery to plan the establishment of an academy for the youth of the surrounding counties. Captain Nathaniel Venable, their host, was one of the several appointed to draw plans for the buildings. The probability is that Nathaniel Venable was trying to secure a prep school to enable his six sons to enter Princeton College, New Jersey, where four of them later were graduated. However that may be, these gentlemen in Venable's office founded a school and that school soon turned into Hampden-Sydney College. The office in which the founding of Hampden-Sydney took place was later moved up to the dwelling and attached to it as a kitchen. It may be seen at the extreme left in the accompanying photogravure. Into the new Slate l-lill dwelling moved Nathaniel Venable and his wife, Elizabeth Woodson-two strong-minded, strong-bodied pioneers. There were born all of their fourteen children except the oldest: there generations of their descendants lived, and there, back of the house, lie buried Nathaniel Venable and his wife, seven of their children and others of their descendants. Slate l-lill was a source of public influence. Venable him- self was a Justice of the County Court, a member of the Committee of Safety for Prince Edward, a member of the General Council of Virginia, a member of the l-louse of Bur- gesses, a charter trustee of Hampden-Sydney, an officer of the Revolution. As a loyal Revolutionist he resigned as vestryman of St. Patrick's Parish and helped establish a Presbyterian church where he might worship C-od without praying for the king. Two of his sons, born at Slate Hill, became officers in the Revolution. Another son, born at 11381 :Fig SLATE HILL, THE BIRTHPLACE OF HAMPDEN-SYDNEY COLLEGE Slate Hill, became United States Senator. The mother of these sons showed that she was a strong woman in perilous times. It was probably because her husband and she were active in forwarding supplies to the Revolutionists that General Tarleton and his troops raided Slate Hill. Mr. Venable, whom they wished to take prisoner, had escaped them. Mrs. Venable had hidden the supplies in tobacco hogsheads in front of the barn. The supplies also escaped. The British threatened to shoot Mrs. Venable unless she told where her husband was in hiding. She replied, Shoot ahead. She also escaped. General Tarleton was probably angry, for he is said to have ridden his horse through the front hall of the dwelling. It is said that his horse's hoof-prints were in the hall floor till the floor was renewed. Those who renewed the floor probably had less sentiment than thrift. Slate Hill descended in time to William Henry Venable, son of Richard N., jr., son of Richard N., Sr., son of Nathaniel. This Henry Venable sustained the tradition of his fathers. He and his sister-in-law's brother, Henry Edmunds, were behind an embankment firing at the Yankee uslggrg-shooters during the Battle of Rich's Mountain in the Civil War. Henry Venable up to shoot and was instantly killed. Henry Edmunds raised his head next and had his ear shot off. John Mcffampbell Venable, brother of the slain Henry, inherited Henryis home, Slate Hill, and moved there with his wife, Betty Edmunds, in IS63. They were the last Venables to own the old place. They lived there until Mr. john Venable's death in l899, and then as they had no children, Slate Hill was sold. It was because they had no children of their own that Mr. and Mrs. John Venable made Slate Hill, during their long residence there, the home of many Hampden-Sydney College and Worsham Academy students. Aunt Bet's boys are a numerous and grate- ful progeny. They bear witness to the easy-going and constant good humor of Uncle John and the diligent and kindly care of Aunt Bet. Both knew how to deal with boys. Some solicitous friends once sent Mrs. Venable word that if she took in a certain wild boy she herself would have to leave home. As soon as I heard that, says Aunt Bet, I decided to take him. And he turned out a good boy: he and I hadn't the least 11391 PDE -. SYD - .fs X trouble. Now in her ninety-fifth year Aunt Bet lives at The Maples at Hampden- Sydney and reviews with pleasure her long list of foster sons who lived at Slate Hill while attending either the Worsham Academy funder Professor Thornton, Doctor Wharey or Professor Whiting, as heaclmastersl or Hampden-Sydney College funder Doctors Atkin- son or Mcllwaine, as presidentsj. There were in the l870's: Robert Bouldin, from Californiag Frank Irving fVa.Jg Garry Marshall fVa.J: Henry Hundley fVa.Jg Walter and Lee Barnett CMd.Jp Harry and Howard Miller and Henry Howland fall from Texasl. There were in the '80's: William and Flood Morton fVa.lg Joe Baird QN. CJ. There were in the '9O's: Asa Watkins fVa.Qg Harry Watkins QN. CJ: William Edmunds, Warren White, George and Cabell Fitzgerald, Welford Loiraine, Eliot jones, Michaux Raine, Hugh Brand, Tom Goode, Tom Gilliam fall of Virginiaj. The home of Uncle Johni' and Aunt Bet was a boy's paradise. The fellows staying there enjoyed room without restrictions, care without restraint, interest without encroachment, companionship without pretense, kindness without demands and food without limit. Fried chicken, old hams, pound cake and cookies, sweet-meats and cherry preserves flowed from some perennial spring. Aunt Bet darned socks and counted underwear, tied sore fingers and mopped sore throats, made pies and filled lunch baskets fSlate Hill was two miles from Collegei. It was around her own big open fire in the chamber that we got our lessons at night and when we walked the two miles home from college after literary society or fraternity meetings, there were her keys left out for midnight raids on her pantry, and there was no reproof at breakfast next morning for the rough-housing at one a. m. up stairs. Incidentally, our board and room cost us ten dollars a month. Slate Hill in those days had an atmosphere all its own. The two rows of great box bushes leading to the front door were fully twenty feet high and met over the brick walkway. Huge elms spread between the front porch and the garden gate. On the green grass under these elms often strutted peacocks-the proper flare of gorgeousness against stately boxwood. And the scent of boxwood filled the old garden, the loveliest spot at Slate Hill. Aunt Bet with her own hands had planted the wonderful box-maze there and her Malmaison roses bloomed across the box hedges. Behind the boxwood in that old garden the college boys used to tramp learning their declamations and orations, while the roses listened patiently though blushingly. And, on the warm june nights, when we were busy over examinations, the mocking birds began to sing in the hedge promptly at midnight, while the odor of honeysuckle filled the yard. And it was by dawn in the dew-filled garden full of Aunt Bet's roses that Asa and Harry Watkins walked after the last night they spent at Slate Hill. They had come back to keep watch that night over the body of dear Uncle John as he slept his last sleep in the large chamber to the left of the hall. The wealthy friend of Hampden-Sydney who will present to the College Slate Hill farm as the much needed dairy-farm and Slate Hill residence to be restored as a club and museum, will do an act wherein history and sentiment will kiss each other, while beauty and practicality will be united in bonds that many alumni are ready to call holy.

College publications were instituted in the follow- '37 N ing order: the catalogue, by the faculty: literary monthly, fostered by the literary societies which, it is distressing to relate, have waned: the annual, created through class and fraternity effort: the weekly, an exponent of the athletic association: lastly, the funny sheet, or comic quarterly, which at times finds a use chiefly iconoclastic in spirit. When I attended Pantops Academy there were two college annuals in the library, the first edition of Corlfs and Cuffs, published in 1886 at the University of Virginia, and The Banner, of Yale, the senior of all annuals. For many years this publication consisted of but a few pages. It is interesting to note that the name Corffs and Curls is distinctively original at Virginia. To cork means to fail and to curl to succeed in one's examinations. One of the main attractions at Pantops was the proximity of Edge Hill, the former home of Thomas Mann Randolph, which had been converted into a select school for young ladies. This would suggest that there were students at Pantops with other thoughts than study. And I happened to be in this class. Of the total enrollment of fifty-five several were former students of the University, two were from Hampden-Sydney and Mercer University, respectively. Colleges and universities of that day paid little attention to entrance examinations. One could remain indefinitely at Yale as easily as at Cumberland or Transylvania. It was the degree that counted. They were difficult to secure, particularly the long forgotten Green Ticket at the University. There were fewer qualifying for this ticket than now usually aspire for the American brand of Ph. D. at any institution. My parents had destined me for that true field of Presbyterianism, Princeton. But johnny R., the affectionate name with which we endowed Professor john R. Sampson, the principal of the Academy, was a product of Hampden-Sydney and invariably took the keenest interest in his Alma Mater. Through his guidance I was introduced to Prince Edward's historic educational seat. My arrival was during a heavy rain. I was nearly torn to pieces by Farmer John Chumbley and Shorty l-larper, both of '92, and of the rushing committee of Union Hall. But it took the persuasive powers of Old Wat Lacy, '92, Denny, '9I, and Ned Campbell, '92, to persuade me that attaching to my person the blue and white ribbon of Union, with the inscription Me socium summis ad jungere rebusf' was the proper thing to do. Thus I made my entrance in college life. With a freshman, political ambitions mean a great deal. The hope of becoming a Marshal of the Sophomoresu at mid-winter fefstiviges was as deeply felt as similiar feelings are indulged in at Yale for the post of a cass eacon. My room mate, Baby Budd, of '94, and myself had our furniture shipped by devoted parents from Petersburg. But when we landed in our beds for rest we un- fortunately discovered that the slats had been removed and strings had been substituted. Hence we soon found ourselves on the floor. H411 A few days later, I-Iigginbotham, '92, called to offer some friendly advice, notably concerning the difficulties in receiving a fraternity bid. But I was not as barbaric as this junior imagined, having belonged to Mu Omicron at Pantops. We were told that if we were not spiked by Saturday there was very little chance as all the fraternities had full memberships and that ten members was a conservative limit. But we were convinced that being a member of a Greek order, with chapters we could never see, was not a sine qua non for happiness as much as some of the silver-tongued conversationalists would endeavor to make the unsophisticated freshman believe. The college belfry in those days could be easily considered as a strategic point to Ioiter about. It was certainly a safe place from the intrusion of water bags that, in mild weather, it was customary to toss from the upper floors of Cushing upon the unsuspect- ing innocent who came too close to the building. After I-Iigginbotham's warning I was in a receptive mood to be pledged by one of several Greek factions with whose members I felt friendly. The freshman seldom inquires, as he should, who the members of one's fraternity in his home town are. As Ned Camp- bell arrived before my friends in Phi Psi, the deed was quickly over and I assented without making any inquiries. I was now a step further in college life. It was in the spring of 1891 that the thought of colors and a college annual first took seed with me. At this period the various bands of Greeks were anxious to garner as many honors as they could and editorships, managerships, etc., were beginning to be sought after. I have often thought, in comparing notes with other college men, that the companion- ship of a fraternity group was largely like marriage-thoroughly speculative. Very fortunate indeed it was for me to find a suitable crowd, and doing this means joining a good fraternity. The cementing of friendships is that which gives essence and tone to such organizations, otherwise they are merely clubs. For, as Montaigne says: Friend- ship is the highest degree of perfection in society. In consequence of happy fraternal relations I gained an inspiration that aided me in bringing my order two distinctively new honors, college colors and a college annual and later the cap and gown. The Chi Phi's, who were fortunate in having a small chapter roll, received from nearly all chapters their annuals. They usually favored me with their perusal. The Liber Brunensis, of Brown, the Targum, of Rutgers fthen about the size of Hampden- Sydneyj and the year books of North Carolina and Georgia which had just been published were sent my 'fraternity through appreciative secretaries. Phi Gamma Delta had inspired the dream. When I became a senior fspecialj, Gardner Leonard, a Williams College boy, suggested that I have my class adopt the academic gown, then only in use at one place in the South, Sewanee. This I succeeded in doing. As a senior I felt that I had accumulated sufficient prestige through an endowment of official positions, acts, etc., to go further and create the annual. Words are a mystery and a marvel. And had I worked as hard in languages as I did in trying to arrive at a name for my publication I might have graduated during my three years stay. It was impossible to fashion anything out of the words comprising the college patronymic name. The name Pandora fGeorgial appealed to me very much. Con- glomeratta was the nearest approach to what I wanted. But it sounded harsh. No name 11421 DELTA DEUTERON CHAPTER OF PHI GAMMA DELTA IN l89I could have been selected that met with as much approval as Kaleidoscope I never knew until years after that Middlebury, then smaller than our college, had chosen about the same time a similar name for their annual. l selected my staff and had them approved by their respective classes and fraternities. The staff would not worlxi They were obsessed with fear that failure would transpire. I forgot about failure and its possibilities. I contracted to pay for the entire project at a cost of approximately hve hundred dollars and sold live hundred and thirty dollars worth of books and advertising. Through the advice of the Meriden C-ravure Company I secured finer photogravures than those which had appeared previously in any southern annual. Pictures were made of all the teams. And after the desertion of the staff I did the entire work myself as Editor-in- Chief, Business Manager and Art Editor. I dislike to mention art for the drawings were very crude compared to present day effort. But everything was prepared at Hampden- Sydney and not purchased elsewhere as many non-technical colleges now practice. Hampden-Sydney has easily been among the first fifteen colleges in America to originate journalistic effort. Harvard and Yale both attempted literary monthlies around ISO6. They did not last. Harvard's first catalogue appeared in l830, just seven years after the catalogue of Hampden-Sydney in ISZ3. Incidently, this was the period 11431 K DEN 1 SYD of time that the success of our college was something of a handicap to Mr. Jefferson in the fulfillment of his ideas respecting a central college, otherwise the University of Virginia. The University of Virginia, in l839, brought forth the first college literary magazine in the south, after The Collegian fl-larvard 18305 and the Yale Literary 118375, and one of the first in the country that had any real tenure of life. The Hampden-Sydney and North Carolina Magazines appeared in l850. Washington and Lee established The Southern Collegian in l868, but there is a tradition in Lexington of the existence of a publication called The Owl around the early thirties. However, no one has ever seen a copy. The Phi Kappa Psi chapter of Hampden-Sydney published one of the first fraternity publications of any fraternity. Its date has been mentioned as l857. This chapter, as well as its great rival, the Betas, were among the most aggressive at this period in the South. They did great honor to their respective orders. I am sorry to say during the unfortunate transition stage from a real fraternity to the larger group, or club idea, the work of these chapters has never been fully appreciated by their respective organizations. It was really national in scope. The Philanthropic Society fa literary fraternityj in l850 printed a catalogue of all members and alumni. It was one of the very first college society catalogues in the country. Athletic rivalry gave incentive to the use of colors in distinguishing teams. The first instance being at Harvard where the famous crimson originated from the plebeian Hbandanna handkerchiefsn worn at a regatta to distinguish Harvard's oarsmen from those of Yale. Yale blue was adopted from Cambridge University. Princeton's colors are suggestive of the House of Orange-Nassau-more than those of William and Mary, both of whom could very appropriately adopt the liveries of this royal house. lncidently, William and Mary is one of the few colleges in the world possessing a grant of a coat of arms from the college of I-leralds. The colors displayed are green, silver and gold. Garnet and gray, used on the covers of our annual, were first used at the University of Virginia. At the instance of Allen Potts they were changed to orange and blue. The latter for a long time have been the colors of the University of Michigan. Tradition says that this university secured the idea from the colors of the Chi Psi fraternity which founded a chapter there in i850 when there were slightly more than fifty students and no president. Intercollegiate athletic relations in Virginia first began in I872 with a baseball game between Washington and Lee and the University of Virginia, though they were not renewed for many years thereafter. At the same time the good ladies of Lexington were in the habit of giving receptions where refreshments were sold. Promenading, so the advertisements state, was to be allowed. lncidently, may I call your attention to the disappearance of the Promenade out of American college life. To Hampden-Sydney belongs the honor, among American colleges, of first using a distinctive color, royal purple. Virginia college authorities are somewhat like their English or Canadian cousins, they pay little attention to college life and have never been able to conceive of its great merit as an asset in the government of the institution through its organizations: or the charm it has for the old time alumnus in holding his allegiance. Not until recently did many of us learn that in l777, when Governor Patrick Henry called out the Hampden-Sydney boys to defend the capital against the British, that they wore purple hunting shirts as a distinguishing feature. Had dear old Henneman known this the purple tiger of Sewanee's mountains would have probably dwelt amidst Prince Edwards hills instead of his present lair. 11441 'A an 'W ' , X X 'N 5:11-' ,I ,fr I.
