Two years we’ve spent with friends so true No more work there seems to be But the two other years are on their way Then each shall return for a degree. So we bid you adieu for just a while Faculty, Juniors and all, We'll all be faithful, loyal and true And Normal colors shall never fall. Ebb Craddock Motto: “Not failure, but low aim, is crime.’’ Flower: Colors: Purple and Gold Paste twenty-four Teacodld As I begin this privilege of writing the history of the class of '27, my mind goes back to that date of September 15,1925 when 1 enrolled into the quiet town of Jacksonville. There were many other freshmen on that train and all had the eager look of someone beginning a noble and inspiring task. Many of the “rats” of that number are members of the Graduating Class of 1927. Although we have lost some of the members of the freshmen class, through different channels, we trust that they are engaged in some noble pursuit, and will come back here to complete the, “Prescribed Course of Study.” The senior class of '27 has been very prolific in training and supplying leaders of all kinds to many different positions of leadership in the State Normal School. In our dear old class we have athletics, spokesmen, preachers, church workers and chaperones. I think it would be in keeping with the general methods of writing history to enumerate some of the towns from which our class has been drawn. We have “Birminghamians, “Selmanites,” Rockfordians,” “Boazites, “Gadsdenites,” “Arabians.” “Guntersvillians, “Annistonians,” “Heflinites,” “Tallapoosa Georgians, ‘etc. really too many to attempt to name them all. Our class has exceeded all others in extra curricula activities. The members of the senior class are every one as active and valuable members to one of the other of our Literary Societies and have worked on the theory that uness you put something into any organization you need not expect to get anything out of it. So since 1 firmly believe that every one has gotten something out of their work the only conclusion to be drawn is that they put something into it. The work of our class has been unprecedented in the annals of State Normal records in Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. activities. The attendance of the girles at Y. W. C. A. is almost one hundred per cent. While the boys in the Y. M. C. A. are not very far behind. All the members of the class went into this work wholeheartedly with the realization that they were working jointly for God and Man. Look in the athletic department and see what you find. The senior class there leading the line. I feel safe to say that every member of the class thought of sports and athletics in the way in which they should be thought of. That is, for the upbuilding of the school as well as the individual. In conclusion I want to say that it is my wish that future classes will uphold our ideals, carry on our work and profit by our experiences. George Church. P«g, tocaty-.ix The Senior Class of ’27 desirous of knowing what the future has in store, would fain unwind the kite string and read the reflected future from beyond the heights if we only could. This brings utterly impossible, the great responsibility is unloaded upon my delicate shoulders to unfold the mysterious future of the Class. I feel that I can read with a fair degree of certainty the future of each one. So figuratively speaking, let us now unroll the scroll of time, for at least the next twenty years, while I show each Senior up as a man or woman of 1947. Dawson Durrett, our class tennis star, has gone along the paths of fame so far that no one dares compete with him. George Church, the loyal Calhoun speaker, now a Senator from his state, is working with might and main, while Vondell Nichols, the ever faithful Morgan speaker, is opposing him again. Ruth Brindley employes, (I hope she enjoys it), her time in the home of Valcus McCluskey. She endeaveored to help him along the paths of fame, and finally for him she changed her name. Gurley Bright, a singer of renown, has finally succeeded in whining praise the whole world round. C. T. Skidmore, who has won great fame as a lawyer, added more praire to his name as he defended Ella Mae Sentell in her Promise ease. “Extra, I heard the newsboy say, as he came down the street. All about the famous American foot ball stars. As I glanced through the paper I saw looking from the front page, Edwin Morgan and Foster Lock-ridge. Wilnita Campbel, the movie star girl of our class, did not labor in vain. In a recent paper she was glorified to the highest because of having won fame in her last picture. 'age ht'rHty-t'veit Hudson Thompson, who so faithfully filled the place of our class president, lived true to his wonderful beginning and is now in the White House presiding, with the same ability, over our Nation. Florence Jones believed in being true to her calling therefore you may now view pouring out her knowledge in the school room. Estelle Whorton, continuing to develop her artistic ability, has her private little art room on—Ave. N. Y. Ernest Wright who always displayed his ability in Math, is now known as the greatest Math, professor Columbia has ever had within its ranks. Ethel Craddock, the greatest poet of Jacksonville, is now the most famous, the best loved and the best known of all modern poets. Pauline Lawrence, the girl with so much zeal answered the call to the foreign field. Jewell Lill and Ida Robinson, learning to love the little children in the Training School, have established a kindergarten department under the title—Lill Robinson Co. B. C. Coker answered the call and is now a well known missionary in Japan. Mary Bowman and Mutt Adams, after having studied “Grand Operas” in Jacksonville, have become leading singers for the Grand Opera, and are making great success. Thelma Brewer just some how failed to get out of the habit of playing for people to dance, therefore, she is traveling with a great orchestra. Ernest Coley, the music man. has finally reached his goal—he is the director of the leading band of Chicago. Fred Maples finally succeeded in serving others. He became a medical man. and to him many stricken people owe their lives. Mary John Reynolds is now a composer of standard intelligence tests. Gladys Solley rehearsed her marriage so many times that she finally got married to her loved—William Beck. Bernice Reid has not lost her love for teaching, and is now assistant supervisor of intermediate grades at J’ville. Fieldin Mills after many trials and battles, succeed in being a recognized authority in History. Icie Finney continuing in her work of “loving others now reigns supreme, in a home of fair degree, a pattern of fidelity. Dixie Mae Rowland who always had a kind look for every one became a trained nurse. Page, twenty-eight Maxine Burge is a well known and much loved English teacher of Anniston. J. F. Camp, who always could compete with people is competing with Rockerfeller in the production of oil in the West. Loraine Varnon is the dancing instructor at Williams Dancing Hall. “New York Times , report that Betty Lunchford is making great success in the !i!eigficld Follies. Ruby Dodwell has never lost her interest in books that she cultivated as assiftant librarian at S. N. S. She is now a traveling salsewoman for N. Y. Co. Jewell Nolen, because of her marked ability in her entire College work is now Editor-in-Chief of the “Washington Times”. Jewell Bright, a willing worker is now a state worker for the Y. W. C. A. Lula Barnard ever so sturdy and strong is a supervisor of the Gym in Peabody College. Lucy McGraw, who was always so deeply interested in the Juniors, is now the Junior B. Y. P. U. Leader of Alabama. Back again we step into our places as Seniors of '27 but since the prophecy is made it cannot be unread. So if your fate you dislike, 1 can only say, Beware before it is too late”. Beulah Jackson.

Page thirty-three (junior Glass 9iistory On September the 13th, 1926, as the run crept slowly out of its peaceful slumber above the mountains of Jacksonville, the Juniors were silently thinking of their ambitions and goals yet to be achieved. Eagerly we stepped with a feeling of sadness into a newlife, but another emotion predominated—one of adventure, for we were entirely a new race which was to lead to the goal of success or failure. With strong determination we turned our face toward the registration hall so as to settle down and start to work. Our work was very hard but we had persistence and strived onward. English 100A under Mr. Hendrix was the only class that the entire band of Juniors had together. Every Junior was at ease in that class and strove to win approval. It did not take many days for us Juniors to find our places in school and social work for there was an empty chair awaiting us. The old Seniors of 1926 had passed into a life of service and the Juniors stepped upward leaving a vacant place for us to fill. In athletics the Juniors took an active part and helped to win the great games of the year. In the literary societies the Juniors became leaders. We feel greatly honored to know that our class contributed a speaker for the Calhoun and Morgan debate. We shall never forget the beloved teachers and their helpful advice given us. In our hearts are happy memories of our first year spent together at the S. N. S. and as we close the History of the Junior Gass of 1927 let us look forward to our return and success in the approaching year. Irene Flurry.

Never has the Parish House been so artistically decorated. A soft glow tell over the room from the lights. For even the lights were of our colors—crimson and gold. The tables in the shape of a C were attractive from the lates to the dainty place cards. Icie Finney, in her usual charming way. was Toast Mistress. Among the speakers were Dr. Daugette. Dr. Frazer, our speakers, Messrs. Skid-mere and Church, besides a number of the members. Alter the banquet, the tables were removed and a number of stunts were pulled. The enjoyment went far into the night. Once again the loyal Morgans had gathered to feast and celebrate in honor of their Speakers. The quiet lights of the Country Club cast their rays over the building. Blue and gold were the colors to be seen everywhere. The tables so artistically arranged in the shape of an M, were more beautiful than ever. Mr. Panell, in just the way he does everything, was Tcast Master. A number of old Morgans were back to encourage and inspire our Speakers. They too, made talks, and told of their love for their society. The evening was an inspiration to us all. K Vane Ihirty xeven „Annual Debate On the night of February the nineteenth, the Morgans and Calhouns eagerly gathered for their annual debate. The pep and determination that had attracted so much attention the week before did not slacken. Even the gym with its floats and deco; ations of blue and gold, and crimson and gold, created an atmosphere of friendly rivarly. Each society gave its yells and sang its songs in that enthusiastic spirit that had become a part of them. The flower girls, the sponsors and ushers added charm to the evening with their girlish manners and dress. The speakers, quiet, determined— yet almost impatiently waiting their time to speak, made each society have a feeling of pride and hope. Each speaker’s words came quickly and forcefully. When the decision of the judges was announced the Morgans winners—there was a wild rush to the victorious speakers. The Calhouns, proud of their fight, rejoiced with the Morgans. The Morgans, happy because they were victorious, did not forget the Calhouns. Each society left with a stronger determination and hopes and plans for the debate next year. 1'afr Ihirt f-eighl (jood Sportsmanship 4 The boy’s basket ball tournament so recently held here was a typical example of that hard-to-define thing called Good sportmanship . On every hand were to be found good winners and good losers; in every game a spirit of enthusiasm, loyalty, fairness and love for good play was displayed ; in every game a consideration for the other fellow was shown; in every victory was that pride which comes from a consciousness of something accomplished in no victory did the players show any desire to rub it in. In no game was a better spirit shown than in the one which was to determine the district championship. Immediately after the whistle blew and after the score was announced the winners rushed to their opponents and, in a friendly manner, told them how close the game had been and how they appreciated the good spirit shown in the game. Good sportsmanship was also shown from the side lines. A close observer would have noticed that support was given to the weaker team. The greater test of the good sportmanship which prevailed was friendly feeling which existed after the game was over. As soon as the winner was announced the players ceased to be opponents but became friends again partners in a much larger, much more alluring game called “life which is so great, so wonderful, so full of possibilities. They became a team of human beings struggling to solve the awful mystery of the universe, a team working together to make the world a better place for the players who are to succeed them. Oh how important it is that we show good sportmanship throughout life—that we play the game so that much good will be the result of our having lived! How important it is that each person prove worthy of the name “A good sportman.” Jewell Phillips. Page thirty-nit (peanut 'Week “Peanut Week” has become a tradition in our school home—the dormitory. Every year, the week before Christmas the girls draw for “peanuts.” In each peanut is a name of another girl and they do something thoughtful for her every day. We find joy not only in doing little services for our peanut,” but in knowing that she does not know who is doing it. The last night before we leave for the Holidays, we have a small tree in the parlor and each girl receives an inexpensive gift from her peanut”. ynfanless cDance The Y. W. C. A. sponsored a Manless Dance in October. The dates were made early and no time was lost as the fun began in the beginning The Jacksonville Jazz Orchestra furnished the music and was quiet a treat It was a night ot tun and getting better acquainted. Joint $� ciety (programs The Morgan and Calhoun Literary Societies meet with their brother and sister societies once each term in a joint program. This year the programs have been unusually good and attracted a great deal of attention. The musical programs have been quite inspiring, the literary programs instructive and the many stunts quite enjoyable. We have unusual talent in our societies and we are expecting to do still greater things. ■V. c®. G. 4. ‘Sea Early last fall the Y. W. C. A. gave an informal tea in honor of its new members. The parlor was beautifully decorated and dainty plates were served. As usual the Y. W. C. A. found great joy in doing this for the new girls. and Social The Y. W. and Y. M. are fortunate in being able to give the first social each tall. 1 his is an annual occurence and we all look forward to it. It is given in honor of the new students, and after this, everybody knows everybody else. This year it was more than a success. Miss Sprott in her usual way, kept “something going” every minute. We not only gave the students a chance to know each other, but our organizations found a way to their hearts through the friendly spirit of the social. Pag? forty Page farlg-t. W. G.

Our organization's energy and devotion have made it one of the most prominent and efficient organizations on the campus, and one of the most beneficient influences in our lives while here. In our mid-week vesper services we have grown richer and broader in relationship with God and our fellow-students. Once a month we meet with the Y. M. C. A. in a joint program. At these meetings each organization takes part. Every morning before breakfast we meet for a few minutes of morning praise, thus beginning the new day with God. Page forty-five v.

To lead students to faith in God through Christ. 2. To prompt a growth of Christian faith and character through the study of the Bible. 3. To promote a positive moral and religious spirit. 4. To challenge students to. devote themeselves, in united effort with all Christians, to making the will of Christ effective in human society throughout the entire world. 5. To assist students in solving campus and other college problems. With the completion of the new dormitory a permanent place of meeting will be obtained. The “Y. room will be properly fitted up to accommodate a larger group for the regular mid-week meetings and will also afford a place of recreation during all hours of the day. It will become headquarters of the Association. Officers for the Year 1926-1927 D. E. Coley .......................... President ...................... Vice President ..................

It was the Calhoun Literary Society, named in honor of Senator John C. Calhoun former Senator from South Carolina. Until 1899 the Calhoun was the only Literary Society in the school. The enrollment at this time was so great that it became necessary to divide the society. Lots were cast to see which group would retain the old name. The new group named their society in honor of Senator John T. Morgan. The old group retained the old name. Calhoun. After the formation of the two socieities, an anuual debate was held. For twenty-seven years the two societies held annual debate. Page forty-eight Women’s Qalhoun literary Society During the last year the progress of the Calhoun Literary Society has been very marked. Though fewer in number than the Morgans, we find that it is quality not quanity that counts.” Our Society is alive and growing. We are proud of it. Even though we lost the annual debate this year, we are eagerly waiting for combat as before defeated. Although most of our members are new, they realize that the society work cannot go on without cooperation of all, and they willingly rcs| ond when called upon. The most noted feature of the year’s work has been the excellent programs. A number of inspiring musical programs has been given, and a number of original stunts “pulled.” We are noted everywhere for our “pep” and capability of “putting things over.” IRkve mum mm k CKSONV(LLi, Page forty-i Teacodld JX(en’s yy[organ JZiterary fiocw.ty The Morgan Literary Society was organized twenty-seven years ago by the young men and women of Jacksonville State Normal. From this time, it has functioned as one of the most progressive and satisfactory activities to be found in any school or college. This society is founded upon one of the great principles of democracy —equal opportunity for all—and the Golden Rule,. We train each one as our motto. The members of the society are young men and young women of character and “pep.” They rally to the noble cause with all the enthusiasm of young Spartans. This Society is the most initiative of any pupils' organization of the Normal. Its members are always pleasant, hospitable and entertaining. This Society stands strictly on the religion of our forefathers and prohibits profanity and unmanly conduct and at all times. This Society cooperates with the Faculty in encouraging honesty in the school rooms, playgrounds and dormitories. All parents should feel free to encourage their boys and girls to join the Morgans for religious and moral protection. Page fift g 1 -r- ogg Teacoald cls)omen's Jfyforgan Jiiterary Society The Morgan girls stand for loyalty and pep, due to these qualities they urged the Morgan boys onward to a victorious goal in the annual debate. That is not all, many were the splendid programs given every Tuesday night. Lives of Southern writers were studied and interesting programs given of numbers selected from their works. Among them were Joel Chandler Harris and Frank I.. Stanton. Nothing portrays the spirit of the Morgan girls more than the Morgan song written by Mrs. Ada M. Pitts.

Petterson fifin'11 Puge fifty-five Pag' fifty-«« Coach “Al” Clemens is undoubtedly one of the best coached in Alabama. He has shown it by his high type of football. Coach is a popular “fellow” in and out of school and with all outside teams who come here to play. He always stands for high class playing, for giving the opposing teams a “square deal,” but will never allow his boys to be imposed upon. His spirit and personality has thoroughly permeated our interest in branches of Athletics. Then for his able coaching, for his true friendliness toward the fellows and for his high moral standards, we wish to express our sincerest gratitude to our faithful and beloved Coach. 7'« «• ff'j- Teacoala BEN CANNON (Captain) Half “Red” “Red” isn’t the noisiest thing around, but he possesses a laugh which, carried on to the gridiron, shows the team where he is and what he's doing. They all depend on “Red.” He's a plunging Devil when he gets going. DICK WALTERS (Alt. Captain) —Center As well as being center of '26, “Dick” is the key to the future success of the purple stream. Safe, sturdy, and strong he heartens the team. EMERSON WHITESIDE . Tackle “Whitey” “Whitey’s determination to win was always denoted by his fierce tackles. His rangy build enabled him to quickly fill up holes made by the opposing line, always emerging from human hay pile with his Pa fee fifty-eight ELBERT SANFORD Guard Red “Red,” though with us a short time, lived up to the fighting reputation held by all red-headed men. “TOMMIE THOMPSON” .............

No one can ever forget him as he was always in the game with the same old “pep.” EDDIE WATERS ................... End “Ed” is a fast strong and clean hard tackier. None being too large to hit the ground when he laid hold. FOSTER LOCKRAGE Center and Guard “Lock” When it rains on the football field “Lock” is in his element, and how his feet do go! “Keep moving” is Lock’s motto, and he certainly lives up to it. “SKID” SKIDMORE End Skid is the only married man we’ve ever had that could persuade his wife to let him stay on the squad. “Skid” was a powerful man both on the offensive and the defensive. He deserves praise for his splendid Past fifty-nine “PETE FLOYD ...................... Quarter When speaking of “greased lightning,” we know one “Pete.” Small and peppy, he could go through an inch cube in the enemy’s lines, emerging triumphant with the goods, or rather, the pigskin. ERNEST WRIGHT _ Half “Shortie” The garaest, scrappiest, pluckiest little half that ever wore a purple jersey. He is one of the lightest men on the squad, but that fighting spirit made him a valuable asset all autumn. GARVIN WEST....................... Half ••Slim When it come to running “Slim” is there all wool and a yard wide. When it comes to interference he can lay low the best of HOWARD PAINE ................. Half “Pain” Did he give them a pain? I must say he always left the footprints of his heels on the opponents. VONDEL NICHOLS ................... Full “Vondellion” Put a football in Vondellion’s hand and he will jump into a brick wall. When he failed to get his man you may know there is something wrong. •toy OSCAR LAMINACK ...... Full Back “Lammie” Lammie” regular bone crushing fullback, was a demon at hitting the line passing and also end runner. ALTON PARRISH (Capt.) End A gain made over Captain Johnnie’s territory is a gain made over a real man— which doesn’t often happen. Never ha there passed a more courageous member from the purple squad than Johnnie. He deserves all the praise that we can bestow upon him. The slogan of all opposing team•� was “Watch Parrish.” A large score never ebbed his “spunk’ ’to win. MILES HOWARD (Alt. Captain) .. Guard “Red” “Red is one of the most dependable men the team had this season. A red headed two fisted fighting man, who vexed the enemy when he appeared in the line up. “Get with it” is “Red’s” motto, and he certainly lines up to it.

Tedcodla COACH CLEMENS Needless to say Coach Clemens was a familiar figure on the gridiron directing the destinies of the Tigers, and to him we owe a debt of gratitude for the splendid showing which the team made. WHITESIDE, Guard Whitty is always on the line ready to take the ball off the back board. He made many a point for the team as he went down the field on the offense. RYAN, Forward Ryan is well noted for the accuracy with which he makes long shots count. He rarely fails to drop the ball through the basket. MORGAN, Guard “Preacher” playing guard maintained at all times an air tight defense, it being nigh impossible for the opposing forwards to make any counters over him. RAINES, Forward Wallace is a fast player, and has a trained eye for the basket. His speed and accuracy was evidence enough that he would have a place on the team. WRIGHT, Guard Earnest is an all-round basketball player. He plays an excellent game anywhere on the team. Pafte sixty- NICHOLS, Guard Vondell, as utility man, was always on the job ready to go. He always played a hard fought game, and put up a defense that was hard to overcome. WEST, Forward West is the light weight of the team, bui what is here lost in weight is doubly replaced in action. He is a fast forward, few guards being able to keep up with him. THOMPSON, Center Captain Hudson .at center rarely failed to get th-ball on the “tip-off and kept it in our territory most of the time. LOCKRIDGE, Guard Lockridge_ played a good game at guard, always giving his opponents trouble in scoring. PAYNE, Center Payne showed a great efficiency at center. He always put up a defense that wa-hard for his opponents to overcome. FLOYD, Forward “Pete’s” opponents often said of him when the game was in action. “He can't be found. Miss Jobe, our beloved couch, has not only found the way to the hearts of her Basketball girls, but to the heart of every student on the campus. Under her leadership, our girls have displayed an undying spirit of loyalty, fairness and victory on the field. Our victories are her victories, and through these victories she has won the sincere gratitude of the Student Body and the Faculty. About her clings the air of strength that comes from high ideals and a life filled with unselfishness and consecra-tion. Her influence does not stop on the field, but lives on as we leave school. ! agc .irlg-ai. Page aaventg LULA BARNARD, Center A tall comely lass, who shoots that goal with plenty o£ class.

Page seventy--out Enough cannot be said for the four faithfuls—Blair, Buckner, Dod-xvell and House. According to little House they have “built by the side of the court” this year, but next year they plan to move out on the court.

Therefore, at this time it is quite fitting to think over what a senior ought to expect to take out from his high school with him. What are some of the things that the high school graduate should take with him ? A successful graduate ought to leave high school with an alert and eager mind, showing the marks of training through real study and skilful teaching, if he has been taught to think straight and properly, he will regard his graduation not as the completion of his education but only as a milestone on the educational highway. Life itself is education and the process of growth ends only with the end of life. The high school senior should take with him sound health and a strong body. The emphasis now placed upon athletics, physical education and hygiene should give him that happy combination: “An active mind in a sound and strong body.” In the various student activities our graduate gets excellent opportunity to develop himself socially. He has learned to like and associate with people. He is interested in others and has sensed the important fact that life is learning to live with others. The high school graduate ought to have begun to appreciate the finer things of life. One with culture and refinement possesses the profoundest respect for the good in all people, and realizes that there are in the human life values and aspirations and ambitions and ideals which are most worth while. Though of a happy nature and a natural fondness for fun. the successfully trained high school graduate should have a fairly keen and abiding sense of duty. He is far from being gloomy or over-serious, but he has a conscience that is quite alive and knows how to choose between right and wrong. He frequently comes to regard Duty as “the sublimest word of our language.” In the final analysis, the high school graduate is a dreamer; he is optimistic: he is forward-looking. This warm enthusiasm lies at the basis of much of our progress and keeps the world moving on to better things. Abundant success and happiness to you all. H. Clifton Pannell. Principal.

Pate one hundred Ucc When Atlas undertook the great task of supporting the world upon his shoulders, he little realized that the future held in store a graduating class like that of '27. The earliest known events of this class took place on a balmy September morning in 1923 when a few of the present seniors were seen storming the doors of the castle of knowledge. During our freshman year our brains were puzzled with problems of AIgbra, of the tenses in Latin, and the construction of words and phrases in English grammar. But finally by some hook or crook, we managed to pass bravely through the first stage of our great adventure, and were allowed to enter the second. To the surprise of everyone, our meekness dropped from us like a worm—out cloak and we became brilliant—know it all—sophomores. It was now that the boys became interested in football and many made the Pre-Normal team (there being no high school team at that time). The boys and girls were growing intensely interested in basketball and as a result we had two good teams. Thus did the Class of '27 move forward. The third stage of our career was then ushered in. With a cool audacity that amazed everyone, we acted as if this school were our own private property to do with as we so desired. It was during this year that our class began to increase in numbers. The Junior-Senior Reception given at the Parish House at the close of the 1925-26 session, was the most charming and fashionable affair in the annals of Normal Hi (it being the first and only one yet given). With this our Junior year ended and we emerged with colors flying and heads in air, for would we not be Seniors next year? !‘ gr onr hmulrrd Ik, In the year, one thousand nineteen hundred and twenty-six (1926) Anno Domini, some thirty Seniors entered the place of pomp and power reserved for them. What a happy and unusual year this has been! Both boys’ and girls' basketball teams entered the District Tournament and the girls earned the enviable honor of fourth place; something remarkable considering the fact that twenty-two (22) strong teams entered the Tournament. One of our number, Nellc Jennings, has been captain of the team during her entire stay with us, an unusual record, for she was with us throughout the journey. Also another Senior, Leman Brown, was captain of the Normal Hi Eleven this year. In Literary work the Senior Class stands promencntly. The Class of '27 furnished the presidents of both the Glee and Dramatic Clubs. It is also fitting and proper that we mention our President, Leman Brown, who has for two successive yejirs been honored by his classmates with this distinction. It is with a mingled feeling of joyous expectation of the future and of sadness at parting with the past that we take our diplomas. Thus endeth the chronicles of the class of '27. Page one hundred four Class Cprophecy One day while I sat meditating near the edge of a swift flowing stream, thinking of life’s successive triumphs and sorrows, I realised that life was not a mere dream. While my thoughts were thus absorbed with the things that should concern every life, I began to think of the present strife. Suddenly I was aroused from these thoughts by an approaching sound. Looking up, I saw coming toward me the form of a mysterious looking woman, bent with age, who when seated before me, asked this question; “If I should look into the future to tell you of anything you wished to know what would it be?” I sat spellbound for a few minutes, then I answered, “Please tell me the career of my Senior classmates of Normal High School. Thus she began slowly: “Ten years hence I see you as a graduate from Woman’s College at Montevailo, Alabama, leaching History in Normal High, now the best school in the State.” “I care to know nothing of myself I interrupted. “Pease tell me of my classmates. “I see Willie Carr as queen of a quiet home in Birmingham, Alabama. On the ball field of the University of Alabama I see Kankin Daugette winning world-wide fame as a football star. I recognize George Hollingsworth as Manager in a Gadsden Bank. Page one hundred five TedCOdld Suddenly, as if startled by a new revelation, the old woman looked up at me. “Look, I see on graduation night in the University of Alabama. Mamie Lois Carr, receiving her diploma with highest honors. If there had been any uncertainty about this old lady's words before, there was none now for 1 could hardly keep up with her. The prophet hesitated for some seconds and 1 knew that her mind must have been deeply concerned with some one. “Nestled in among the pines, on the bank of a small streamlet, stands a neat well-kept log school house. Inez Morrison rules with love and kindness. Powell Smith is joint owner of a moving picture concern in which he plays leading man. Cora Carpenter and Katherine Reid are teaching in Howard College. T. C. Edwards and Taft Porter graduated from Auburn with honors. Clara Tolbert surprised the town of Jacksonville by going to Paris, where she is a noted dress designer. Paul Sewell, who spent all his money on chewing gum tpr his many sweethearts, is now in the poor house.’’ 1 jumped, the old woman clapped her hands and cried, “Can’t you hear sweet strains ot music? Nell Jennings, the opera singer!” So beautiful and clear were the echoes of the voice that until the spell was broken I was entranched. Slowly she proceed. “Nellie Joe Perry is teaching English in State Normal, in Jacksonville, Alabama. Leman Brown, is a teacher of Stenography and Typewriting and finally opened a Business College in which there is no entrance fee. Juanita Brittain has a most successful beauty parlor in Birmingham, Alal ama. Sybil Stansell is a famous actress in Paris. Pauline Morgan teaches music and dancing in Birmingham-Southern. lone Abrams teaches Sociology in Normal High School. Annie Sizemore is a successful Home Economics teacher in Anniston High School.” Again she stopped and wondered what would come next. “Would you,” she queried, “like to know if any classmates are married ? “J. B. Ryan is manager over a cozy little home near Jacksonville, Florida. His faithful helpmate, is better known to your classmates as Lonette Stephens. Mary Fletcher almost attempted a life of matrimony but instead is a Biology teacher in Guntersville High School. Georgie Lee Howell who kept the boys of the class busy in killing the bugs and worms that rashly crossed her path, is now the appointed professor of Entymology in the University of Alabama. Meril Dinger has said “good by” to the opposite sex and now lives in a tent on Lookout Mountain.” With these few words, the old lady arose from her resting place. “I must not tarry longer, she gently said. “Darkness is fast approaching.” Thank you, dear prophet, for the information you have given me. Truly life is real and not merely a shadow of a dream. With that she left me and gazing around from trees to stream, from heaven to earth, I murmured to myself, “Life is just what you make it.

Page ome hundred thirteen Teacoald Page one hundred fourtt 3tike, to Shite's :View As the first signs of spring began to appear, the members of the Hiking Club immediately made their plans. The first of the season was made to White’s View. Four o’clock found us at the main building patiently waiting the arrival of our guide, Paul Sewell and our chaperon Mr. Pan-nell. The summits of the mount was reached after a long, toilsome but joyous pull upward. Having gained the goal of our journey and being tired to the tiniest fiber, we eat around a campfire telling jokes, legends, and our experiences. The moon arose early and by its shining rays we found our way homeward. '’Backward (party One of the most interesting affairs of the season was a backward party given by the Senior class. The Community Club was beautifully decorated with Christmas coloring on this occasion. Each person wore his clothing backwards and had to enter backward. Refreshments were served at the beginning. Games were played and contests were held until a late hour. Entertainment for hatchee On the evening following the game of football with Ohatchee the students of the Normal High School entertained their opponents in the Normal gmynasium. Various games and contests were enjoyed by all. A committee composed of boys and girls of the high school, served approximately sixty guests with punch and cake.

Pa ■■ one hundred sixteen I 7{(forming yl Snob The train came to a stand still at the Blue Lake Station with a grind of brakes and an angry snort. Around the station was a crowd of laughing boys and girls. It was the opening of a new term at the Seminary and every one was anxious to get a glimpse of the new pupils. Among the crowd a young man was seen to rush in front of a young girl and haughitily descend the steps. A little flapper nudged her partner, “Oh boy, what a grand one! We’ll make him step high, she laughed. The newcomer brushed his suit off with many lordly airs and glanced about, evidently looking for something that wasn’t there. “Taxi”, ironically yelled one of the boys and the speaker mockingly bowed the freshman to an old battered Ford. “I say, don’t you—” began the snob. His remark was cut short by a hard push that sent him sprawling into the back seat. Fred Trenton drove at a breakneck speed up to the front of the main building. “Ahem, said a voice behind him. Fred turned quickly and with an embarrassed grin said, “Here's a new pupil.” “So I thought,” returned the Dean of Blue Lake Seminary. Fred jumped in the car and drove off much crestfallen. After returning the car to it’s furious owner he ran into ‘the gang,' which was returning by the longer route to the campus. “Hey Freddie, where’s sis?” was the general outcry. “We’ll be disgraced letting such a thing run loose. I’ve got a plan. Crowding around Fred listened to many ‘ohs’ and ‘aha.’ The following day and night every one was fairly bubbling with excitement. Would ten o'clock never come! At the expected moment there was a low whistle beneath a window. ‘Thorny’s gone. Come on.” Thorny was the monitor. “All right”, was the reply. “Get the girls. I’ll get the snob.” A shadowy figure moved cautiously down the hall. It halted at room 13. A plank shrieked. The intruder paused breathlessly, then softly rapped on the door. “We’re throwing a party. Want to come? frfirrf Teacodld I never go to parties without a formal invitation, was the reply. You'll go to this one,” muttered the sophomore to himself. A few minutes later a bright light flooded Powell Lindsay's room. “Fire! was muttered hoarsely. “Out of the window! quick! The occupant, snatching his beloved saxophone, leaped out of the window. There was a rush and before he could regain his feet he was tightly bound. “Everything ready, someone whispered. From the flagpole at the Blue Lake Seminary there waved a pair of blue Pyjamas, intermingled with feet and saxophone. It was quickly lowered and aloud groan issued. At that instance a light was seen coming up the driveway. “It’s Thorny. Run for your lives,” was the command. Every one obeyed instantly, leaving the freshman to his fate. “At it again,” muttered the floorwalker. But there was a merry twinkle in Doctor Thornhill’s eyes as he loosened the bedraggled snob and listened to his wails. Mattie Ree Bell.

Pu� e one hundred hcenty-t fallowing the Orange and (.Blue through the Season The Normal Hi squad spent several weeks betore the fall term began, at Borden Wheeler Spring in training, determined that every possible effort would be put forth to have a winning team for the season. Straw hats, jelly beans, wives, and sweethearts were entirely forgotten in the strenuous two weeks that lollowed. When the whistle blew for the grst “kick off” the boys were on their toes. The tirst game of the season, which was with Ohatchee High School was played on the home lield, and resuited in a tremendous victory of 52-0 for Normal Hi. The pep and enthusiasm among the student body, manifested at this game, lasted throughout the entire season and was a great help to the team in winning other games. The second game of the season was a tough pull for victory. The Talladega Mutes, in spite of many handicaps, put up a splendid fight but we finally emerged with a score of 3-0. After two victories, we added to our record a tie 6-6 with Talladega. The manner in which our boys fought their way after such a close shave with the “Mutes is a splendid example of what a clean, hard-hitting team, made of the right spirit, can do. The following Friday we played Alexandria on our own gridiron and again we played the pigskin to a victory of 13-6. The straw that broke the camel's back was our game with Ashland. The score was 13-7 in our opponent’s favor. Probably our many successes caused us to be a little overconfident and perhaps the Ashland's determination to give us a real scrap, were causes of disastrous results. In the last game, much to our sorrow we lost to Arab 14-2. It was a strenous light, every man ready and willing to do his best, but the odds were against us. This is the record of a bunch of clean, fighting, determined fellows, fighting their way upwards to a splendid season. Many times we missed the passes, many times, the goal, but we learned the meaning of teamwork and a common purpose. The result has been worth the effort for physi-sically, mentally and morally we are better men. Much credit and honor, not only for victories but for the splendid spirit and sportsmanship displayed by the team, is due to the coaches, M. I,. Samuels and V. C. McCluskey. huiulrrtl ht. nfy-thrff (jirls' Basketball c5eam The Girls’ Basketball team got away at a rather slow pace this season, there being some handicaps to overcome. Several trips were made by the Girls’ team, the tirst being to Ohatchee, the last to Talledega. The season closed much more brilliantly than it began, for in the Tournament the lassies made their way to semi-finals against strenuous odds. In the semi-finals of the Tournament the “Orange and Blue girls were downed by the fast Anniston sextette. Every effort to have a good team was put forth by the team and the coach. Miss Isabel Miller. Good training was clearly demonstrated in the Tournament games. Owing to the fact that only two players will be lost, the prospect for a splendid team the coming year is to be expected. Page one hundred twenty-four (.Boys’ (Basketball eam The basketball team of '27 can again turn over another page in its history. As we survey the facts, we find that out of the eleven games played. six were lost. The “flying five” proved that brainwork is an important factor. Because of the splendid coaching of V. C. McCluskey, we now boast of a stronger and faster team this year than heretofore. In the second game of the Tournament we were defeated after a desperate effort, by the Anniston Bulldogs. The high school is proud of the record made by the team and we hope that next year will bring the Orange and Blue” nearer a championship. Page one hundred twenty-five cI{ivals A sudden hush came over the crowd that had gathered in the Morton High School Gymnasium. The Wilmont team had entered. All eyes were turned and fastened on one of the players, for a single instance, and then, an applause from almost all the crowd broke forth ' Almost—yes, but not all. One, a handsome youth of about nineteen, tall, medium slender, and a blond, did nothing but stare at Kirby, the player who had attracted the attention of all the other spectators Lee Kirby was about an inch short of six feet In height, and a well built young follow. He was in his Senior year in high school, although he was scarcely seventeen. His blue-black eyes seemed, if possible, a shade darker and extremely bright, as B Morton and vilmont had been rivals—the bitterest—ever since Wilmont had succeeded in getting the County Vocational Agriculture Department added to their high school. Morton had failed, and because of their failure and Wilmont’s success, had felt a bitter hatred for Wilmont Hi. In a way this gome was looked forward to, and at the same time, dreaded. There would very likely be trouble; there always had been from both players and sidelino. Seemingly this had come to a climax the year before when Kirby emerged with a broken ankle. A neutral spectator, if any such thing had been possible, could have seen that Jones, none other than the tall blond already mentioned, tripped Kirby on purpose. It was unsportsmanlike, and if Jones had only had time to think he would never have done it, but he was determined that his team should win. Regardless of his misfortune, Kirby was back and on the job this year. Upon counted for. similar to the th'ng that men, when discussing a woman's many peculiari- ’ Everything was passing off very smoothly, so smooth that it almost grew mo- _______ Nothing was said by either party to the other. Nobody dared to jeer at opponents. The whistle blew. Every man hurried to his place. The grandstand was held spell-bound. Everybody was wondering if Kirby would be as good now, as he had once been. The game started “snappy. Mortor's star forward shot a goal in the beginning. Wilmonfs guards had always been their weakest point The struggle went on. The strength of both teams seemed to be equal. Houston, the other Wilmont forward, go two free pitches, but made only one point The first quarter ended with a score of 2-1. In the latter part of the first quarter Morton made two field goals. Wilmont did not score. The spirit in general was growing much livelier. Cheers were coming from the grandstand with a vim. Even the teams seemed almost beside themselves. Wilmont players were not acting like licked puppies but had that wait and see attitude. The third quarter started in earnest and ended with a score of 19-18, Morton leading. Wilmont team was just going to lose this year. Their main guard had fouled out. Surely someth'ng would happen. And it did. The last quarter: Fighting fire was in every man on the court. The Morton team shot two successive goals, thus raising their score to 23. “Let’s go gang! Come on!” yelled Kirby. It was the signal. Kirby made a goal. Nothing could hold him now for he was himself. Four goals in three minutes time set the crowd in a panic. The score was tie and one minute to play. Kirby was thinking. Nerve, nerve, nerve,” he kept saying to himself. Morris hod the ball but his every move was being watched. A trick play would be all that would save his team now. With more speed that he had ever displayed before he wound in and out of his opponents’ line. Mentally he was dazed. How he made his last goal he never knew, but he did. The first realisation of what he had done came as the boys of both teams circled around him and as the sound of “Kirby, rah! rah! rah! resounded through his ears. During the panic of triumph and praise a rather shame-faced blond edged his way through tbe crowd, slapped Kirby on the shoulder, and with surprising enthusiasm ord.
