We tl'e glad its over, but somehow it makes us sad to leave our Tarleton days forever. As Juniors there were about three hundred of us. Some were from as far away as Armenia, but many lived in Erath County. Among the things we did that year, we remember well the Junior edition of the J-Ttw and the Junior- Senier Garden Party. There are one hundred and one of us now. Only two entered as Freshmen; and only five came here as Hgood 01d plodding Sophs.H This year we have had class officers and sponsors who were industrious, and who have succeeded in making the year worthwhile. Tarleton's football and basket ball teams won their championships, to say nothing of what our rifle team, track team, baseball nine. and debating team have done. Naturally, we feel that these teams consisted largely of Seniors. We elected two of the Most Popular Students, and the May Queen was a Senior. Many of the members of the J-Tac and Grassburr staffs have been Seniors. This year has been a success socially, also The Senior Carnival was even more joyous than heretofore. The class parties, especially the Junior-Senior entertainment, have been so well planned that they not only gave us temporary pleasure, but, also, happy memories. As has come to be the custom of graduating classes here, we are leaving a fitting memorial to show what our years in Tarleton have meant to us.

The class as a whole is the largest Freshman class that Tarleton has ever had, and we were rather hard to get together for our fivst class meeting. Finally, however, we did meet and elect the following officers: Howard Phifer, President; L. C. Gayle, Viee-President, and Lois Amos, Secretary. We have all profited by this yearh work, although we have had our misunderstandings, our faults, and our hard- ships. At first we wished we were not in college, for every one laughed at the Fish. But now all of us are glad we stayed, and we hope we may salute you as Sophomores in 192627. 7T:- ': I026 Eighiy-scven 1h 13 -: .-..;, Hattie Griggs Claude Ayers Herman L Harrell Lewis Buster Golden Tindall Fain McDougal Opal Knoles Charles G.

The game was played in a sea of mud. Never wore the Indians able to get near our goal line. Marr placee kicked a goal early in the first period and a little later Al carried the ball over on an end-around-play for a touchdown. Just before the end of the first half Marr kicked another goal from placement. Our whole line starred. Max, ttRed , and Rogers will qualify as mud slingel's oxtl'am'dinal'y.

We did not get started in the first half, but in the second half the Plowboys were hi right. Jack Johnson, who was playing his first game of the year, was our best gainer. Also, Self played a great game. This game was costly, for Self received a broken shoulder which kept him out 01' the game for practically the remainder of the season. .k 44 .. ,. v.

WICHITA Wichiia came down expecting to defeat us at least two touchdowns, but instead we sent them home 0n the little end of a 55 to 0 score. They had beaten Grubhs a week before and thought we would be easy. Our backfield ripped off grain after gain and our line charged and recharged; hence the score. Our line still held and our goal line remained uncrossod.

In a great game we beat them 14 t0 0. They had a great ; passing club and came very near scoring several times. 011!- points were scored 1 in the first quarter. The playing of Rum Taylor, Marr, and Johnson stood out t in this game. The Plowhoys told us on their return that if it had not been for the twelfth man in the form of telegrams they might not have won the game for us. Stay in there, gang, and keep that goal line clean.

They should be proud of that, though, for they were the first team to cross our goal line this year. Our line was air tight, so they resorted to passing, Just :1 short time before the final whistle M they completed a thirty-five yard pass for a touchdown. Roberts played the best t game for us in the backfield, while in the line Fitzhugh was starring until he had i to be taken out on account of a broken shoulder. t 4:524:13 193 mm'vm ,, 7 1 One Humlrrd Two , 43;: 1$4ERAeEB 91384:: '4 La.

Every Hornet gave his best, which was not a plenty. The Plowboys fought in such a manner that the Hornets never had a chance. TARLETON VS. BURLESON In this game, the Plowboys got what they started after early in the season In a game that seemed hopelessly lest, they staged a great comeback and defeated the Bruins 14 to 12. Burleson had scored two touchdowns and it was well in the third quarter before we started our climb. A1 went to the backfield, and before two minutes more we had a touchdown. We came right back, and, by plunges by Al and Little Taylor and by a pass to Roberts over the goal line, seared another. Taylor added both extra points on tries for goal. Every man played a wonderful game of ball, but the work of Al and Little Taylor stood out above the rest. We had one of the greatest teams in the history of Tarleton this year. With a number of letter men back and a host of new material, Coaches Wisdom and Hudspeth put out a great team. We played a strenuous schedule and did not lose a game. It was far in the season before we were scored upon, and this was accomplished by the Baylor Cubs. This was the only team. excepting Burlesou, we played that was near our elass, far we won most of our games by top heavy seoresl Our ancient rival, Grubhs, was only able to hold us to 44 points. We were handicapped most of the time by having regulars out with injuries. Self broke his shoulder early in the season; Fitzhugh broke his shoulder in the Cub game; Johnson hurt his knee in the Grubhs game and was unab'e to play for the championship; and Patton was unable to play for the championship on account at a broken hand. But in spite of all this, the Plowboys carried 0:1, and in a great game they defeated Burlcson for the State Championship 14 to 12. Fighting against a twelve point lead of the first half, they went in to die fighting. The second plunge HA1 made through their line, Burleson was defeated. The come- back our team made took the heart out of their opponents. and, though they never quit fighting, they could not hold against our determined backfield and support- ing line. Never ean we forget the invincible game played by the Plewboys in that last half. One Hundred Three One Hundred Four ' X5 HUM : I W :3 w ! l1 y H H M x 4.- .

Our cage team was such a one as Tarleton had never seen before. For four successive years did Tarleton tie for State Championship, but it took our team of this year to break that tie and earn for Tarleton that long sought title. Coaches Wisdom and Hudspeth had only two letter men back from last yearls squadeCaptain Nix and A1 J ennings. However, these were strong men to build around, and with Starr, :1 Jim man at last year, they made a good founda- tion. In Davis, chosen all state guard last year, and Roberts from the local high school, Jack Johnson, Fitzgerald, flashy forward from Breckenridge Hi. Coleman, and Allison, the coaches had material that could not be equalled. From these was built the team that put Tarleton, after five years of struggle, at the head of the Junior Conference. Nix was a good captain, a good player, and far from a poor eager. Under his leadership, the team played like clockwork. Big Jess and Stomper were as stone walls on their end of the court; Johnson, Fitzgerald, and Nix were always there when a chance for a basket came, and the opposition found a serious stumbling block in either Al or Deither at center. Not until we met Gmhbs in their gym were we defeated. We dropped one game to them. Weatherfurd was the most serious obstacle between us and the championship. The Plowboys well earned the games they won from the Weather- ford cagers. But the long sought goal was so near that the Plowboys would not be denied for a fifth time. No one who saw our team tight through the season, finally to win champion- ship for Tarleton, will ever cease to feel for the team a love that is undying. PLAYERS STANDINGS Total Position P. F F.

We have as our coach Mr. O. H. Frazier from A. 8c M. who was a track star there, and who, it seems has the ability to coach a winning team. The men started training early, despite the recurring bad weather. Until this year, we have not had a track coach; neither have we had a suitable track on which to train. But now we have the coach, and our four-forty yard track around the athletic field is fast being made into an ideal cinder path. At the hrst call for track men, about twenty men reported to Coach Frazier. Most of these were new men; in fact, in Captain Lonnie Starr, we have 0111' only letter man back from last year. Starr broad-jumps and handles the weights. In the dashes, Coach Frazier has Patton, Self, Luther Starr, Houghton, D. Nix, and Sheen. All these men are showing up well, with Patton making a little the best time in the one hundred and the two-twenty yard dashes. But Houghton and Nix are crowding Patton to win. In the four-forty, Luther Starr, True, and Boyd are fighting for first honors. These same men are working for the eight-eighty yard run. Wilkins, Sheen, and White are running the hurdles-both the high and low. Working for the pole vault are White, Pettit, and Fitz- gerald, all of whom are getting good height. Those trying for the broad jump are Captain Starr, Sheen, and MeMurry. In the high jump, Wilkins, Sheen, Coleman, and Gragg are going high. Candle is making good time in the mile run. To sum it all up, our prospects look brighter in track than ever before, and we believe that Coach Frazier and Captain Starr are going to give us a championship in this sport.

'3- . 2: ' ,- ' One Hundrcd Faurteen 01w HmnIrUI Fllh'rn Q:- U R4 9, EELRRLEQLT, Baseball HE baseball prospects look line at the present, writing. S0 6 far, six games have been played, with four wins against two losses for Tarletont Considering that only four letter men are back, this speaks well for our chances. Captain Johnson, Nix, Hart, and Williams are the letter men that Coach Hudspeth has to build the team around. Williams is catching and throwing well, and has plenty of pepper behind the bat. Davis, :1 Jim man from last year, is ably assisting Williams. Curry and Phifer are playing first, with the advantage at present with HRed Curry. Hart and Nix are alternating at second base. Garrett, a new man, is playing good ball at third base, and is leading the team in batting. Hart is also playing some at third with good results. At short is Captain Johnson, who is playing great ball. N0 college has a better short- stop than has Tarleton this year in Jack. In the outfield, Coach Hudspeth has five likely looking prospects. They are Roberts, Hill, Massey, Graves, and Heilhecker. They are all fielding well, but none of them appear to be very strong with the bat. Right now it seems as though Roberts, Hill, and Massey will get the call. Hudsy has a number of pitchers trying out, but on account of the bad weather, he has not been able to get much of a line on their ability. Pruitt, Devall, and McCorkle have all pitched good games, but have been hit hard on some occasions. James, Maddox, and Dutton are working hard for position on the staff, and with good weather they are sure to make trouble for the opposition. We are weak in some points, but the chances of Tarletonis going into the finals, both district and state, 100k mighty good. htaini'ti: , 19,26, i-an One Hun d-red Sixteen - u i- 0 RA 3 s a u Rib Tzit'lettm opened the season on the home diamond with two games with Howard Payne. Jack Johnson won the first game for us with a two bagger in the tenth inning. They retaliated in the secom game by defeating: us 5 to 1. We followed this series with two easily won games with Daniel Baker. Our next games were with Mvritliungour first conference games. TARLETON vs. MERIDIAN The first mnt'eronee game of the season was an easy win for the Plowboys. By bunehing hits with their errors, we were enabled to win by an 11 to 3 score. In the box Mn-Coi'kle showed his worth, and in spite of the cold, the entire team pliyed well. TARLETON vs. MERIDIAN The second game was a reversal For the Plowbeys. Again the weather was cold and unfit for baseball. Meridian hit everything that came over the plate, and most of their hits produced runs. 0111' team played the worst game they had played so far this season. Pruitt started the game, but he was off form, and was soon replaced by James. One Hundred Seventeen 5: PEP mm SQUAD V 1! '1 V vs;- . w. l . .

It is the only oo-cd organizatimi in Turletou that permits of every girlls membership, and urges everyone to become a member of the club. A new and somewhat varied program has been the object of the Aggottos and their mootings this year. Early in the fall, the t'lllh adopted as their symbol the blue ohmnbmy bonnet, and on Thursday, preceding: the nicotings on Thumday nights, these blue honnets have always boon in cvidenoe in the halls, library, and classrooms. As its primary nhjoct this year, the club has fostered the erection of a club house out at the State Farm. This little Hshanty is rapidly nearing completioninot in reality, but in the Hair rustlesH M the club members; and, eventually, the erection will realize the plans of the dreams now in force 'llhmugzliout tho yvm' the club has mjoycd well prepared pro- grams and several out iugx. A few days preceding the Christmas holidzu s, 21 meeting eanying out the festivities of the season was held. Practically every oo-od in Tarleton is an Aggette. At any rate, those who are members of this particular organization are very enthusiastic, in for all possible fun, and ready at any time to help the athletic tlopzu'nnont in the selling 01' tickets for championship games. 143:, w One Hundred Fifty-nine One Hundred Sixty mm GRASSBURIb mm Ode to Tarleton -' If I were to speak for A thousand years, And shed from my eyes Countless tears, All I could say and All I could do Would only prove my Love for you, Old Tarleton.

A5 are most maladies, it was no respecter of persons; it attacked staid 5 teachers, awe-inspiring seniors, egotistical juniors, and retiring fish-all I with the same impartiality. The strongesty finest boys and the hardiest, i healthiest-looking girls became mere weaklings, entirely unable to stand l alone. Its influence was deep and subtle, and before one was aware of it, the heart had been seriously affected. A curious thing was that none of the victims ev'er went to the nurse for a diagnosis. Yet all over the campus were cripples and weaklings, the result of this unknown disease, which was popularly called the S. A. Along Tarleton Avenue one would see couplesw-another curious thing about this malady, it always attacked in pairs-unable to walk in the free, swinging, upright way that man was intended to walk, but they walked slowly, leaned one on the other, and made good use of all support offered. Haltingly, hesitantly, in the usual manner of cripples, these couples would wend their way. Some- times, when the walk had been too strenuous, they would be resting on t the curbing. Now everyone knows that crowding weakens the lungs. l This, however, was only another of the tolls being exacted of the victims. A crippled look, bad grades, sleepless nights, and feeling letters from home were other results of the malady. It was even feared that a few l of the students might be twained for life because of it. l i The great, wise dean was afraid that his campus might now well be t taken for an institute for the rheumatic. He, however, actuated by those t principles of benevolence recommended to one in the Purple Book, de- ' cided to use his influence to rid the college of this terrible malady. His w method was simple and direct. One morning in chapel he gravely ex- l l plained to the students the wisdom of throwing off the tolls of the attacks. HNo medicines are needed, only will power and self control , was his advice. It was very wisely accepted. Today the student body i as a whole is sane, healthy, and-best of alleuncrippled. eMildred H ayley. 5 ' 11926 tikkixn One Hundred Sixtyeonr xv r x 3 1 ivy. 5133' One Hundred Sizly-two EEEV .ii Aggy GRAS snumb mm , V , E?

Jj; I V'hvl fut The Battle with the Grubbites I I AESAR was a great warrior, and those who have never read after him or enjoyed t0 the full his own accounts 01' his great battles with Orgetorix and Ariovistus, have missed much of life. Likewise, in vivid style, we find Biblical accounts of the tribe of Judah in deadly combat with the Philistines. With proper apologies, then, to Caesar and t0 the Bible, and with proper apologies l to some of you for reproducing in modified form something of what I wrote several years ago on a somewhat similar occasion, permit me, at this time, to describe to you briefly, as men of old would have done it, perhaps the greatest l battle ever fought to a finish on the gridiron 0f Hays Field. '1 It came about and concluded in this wise, one Thanksgiving afternoon not ii long henee. . The Gmbbites dwelt in a valley to the East, and they called themselves i, North Texas and a warelike generation. Annually, as was their wont, they made war upon their neighbors round about, even the Tarletonites, and harassed them exceedingly. Horeover, every autum they made sundry invasions into the regions ' lying far to the North and South, and also into the plains country to the NVest, even beyond the Bosque. Furthermore, in the first year of the reign of HMa , the Grubbites said among themselves: itLet us now get together all our mighty men of valor, and make an end to our opponents, the Tarletonites, once and foreverf Then uprose the mighty chief of the Grubbites and thus addressed his people: HLet it be so, for behold, my father dwelleth among the Stephenvillites, and he hath sent a message to me that this season the Tarletonites are weaker and more unwarlike than is their went, and they are ripe for slaughter. l Now, when these things reached the Tarletonites, geart fear fell upon them, and they quaked in their boots exceedingly. But Al, the Mighty, the most ware like of the Tarletom'tes, called together the warriors of his host and swore a great oath, ClBy GumW and said: We will give the flesh of these Grubbites this season to the beasts of the fields and the fowls 0f the air. Whereupon his men took courage among themselves and said: itLet it be so. i . Now it happened in these days that there dwelt among the Grubbites certain Guys, a nondescript tribe without kith or kin, and always searching for a sure thing. So it came to pass on the 26th day of the eleventh month of the year 1925, 1 even Thursday, the Grubbites gathered their warriors, equipped like glyptodons 1 with headshields and horny plate armor, accompanied by their whole population, their Mayor, young men and old men, women and children, charter special trains, J i Am - 7771226 miwm, One Hundred Sizty-four 1:19-33? 0 BA 33,9 U R11? 93: : The Battle with theIGrubbites Condnued loaded to capacity every available auto, mounted the backs of burros and long- homed Texas steers, and went out into the land of the Tarletonites. And when they met them on a hilltop, called Hays Field, 3 great battle was fought. The first part of the battle went sorely against the Grubbites, for the Tarletonites prevailed against them and wounded them grievously. Then the Guys, looking on from afar off, began to make preparations for a sudden flight; since, judging ; from the dust of the battle, the struggle was not going as they had told one to the l other. After the battle had raged a long time, the mighty sti'ugglewvaxed warm, the Grubbites not even yet conceding the victory, though fourteen of their l precious number had fallen. 1 At last both sides halted to rest, to carry off. the dead, and to care for the l wounded. But while they were taking breath, one Duck, a mighty man of valor among the Tarletonites, scowled his greatest seowl, gnashed his teeth, and spake as follows: HGrid up your loins, 0h ye Tarletonites! Why should ye be slain in the land which your fathers took from the Red Man and gave unto you? I will make such a fight as a Gmhbite never saw. When the Tarletonites heard these words, they took heart and said, ULot us t 11p and at lem , and 10, it was so. Now it was that Stomper, the Mighty Mogul, and our men of valor, rushed upon the enemy like bulls of Bashan and trampled the Grubbites under foot. I Our men fell upon the war-like CD generation and smote them hip and thigh, and lo, the slaughter was g1'eat,-fourty-four of their men having fallen, and but six of our men being more than slightly wounded. And thus the battle with the Grubbites ended. -G. 0. Ferguson. t Are We Ready? A1e you ready? Am I 1eady ? Ate we ready to get out of the old khaki I uniforms of Tarleton, don civilian clothes, and face this hard old world without l the protection of anyone? XVhat will we do when 0111' few years of college life are ended? Will we ever be able to attain the happiness and joy that We have dreamed about? Or will we go through life asleep, and never find out what it is all about until life is ended? Will we just manage to stay up with the average -keep our heads above the water? We do not desire a mere existence. We wish sometime to realize the dreams i that we so fervently cherished when we were children. We want to possess the 1 little home that is surrounded by trees and flowers; that nestles in a cove just 1 off the main highway of life. That little home is a symbol of joy and happiness h where love, honor, and tmthfulness form the foundation for the melding of our own and others dreams. eEamest Coleman. mm; 1936 m $.53? . h .4 One Hundred smy-iive J l I i Mr. George: HWhen was George Washington born?

Whether it be on the quiet drill field or along the street of a busy city, men pause in their hurrying bustle of every-day life long enough to see the procession pass and to hear the rhythmic tread 0f marching feet. This fascination is due not only to the spirit of patriotism, but to the harmonious functioning of the many parts of one great machine. No other activities of Tarleton are more symbolic of her principles and ideals than are the Friday-morning parades. As we watch the columns pass, headed by the Colors, so can we stand afar off and see the parade of Tarleton with her co-opei'ative faculty members and student body as she marches on through time, carrying ever in front the banner of her lofty ideals and principles. eMarvin Nix.

One Hundred Sizty-ninc Om: Hundred Seventy Thanksgiving Day, Nineteen Hundred Twenty-fwe NCE upon a time, a long time from now, a great crowd of people have come together to celebrate the anniversary of Tal'leton. Many are the stories that are told about their college. It comes to pass that a stranger is questioned about one of the most memorable days in Tarletou's history. Tarleton: What is your name? Stranger: Father Time. Tarleton: How old are you ? Father Time: I have seen more summers than this old world. Tarleton: Where do you live? Father Time: Everywhere. Tarleton: Describe the weather in Stephenville 011 Novemher 27, 1925 Father Time: Early in the 111ol'ning the sun was hidden by thin clouds. Later in the day the sun shone and moderated the temperature. Tarleton: VVheI'e was the first gathering on the campus? What was the purpose of the meeting? Father Time: There was a pep meeting at nine uteloek in the gymnasium. It was ruled by the Tarletun Spirit. The harmony of the many voices was so perfect that the trees took up the vibrations. The meeting was called to welcome the Exes. Tarleton: What happened just after the pep meeting? Father Time: The Exes took charge of the gymnasium Tarleton: What did the Exes d0? Father Time: J. D. Orton called the meeting to order. Mrs. Chamberlain gave the opening addl Mrs. J. D. Killough gave a negro dialect reading. Next, Miss Ruth Sei'ii hi ,, accompanied by Mrs. Beulah Wilkerson, sang two selections Following this, f'oaeh Wisdom spoke for a few minutes. His speech was short, indeed; he said that he would do his talking after he got through working on Grubbs. Then the ExeStudentsy Association was organized: Cecil Butler was unanimously elected president 01' the Association; Miss Priscilla McKinnon was elected secretary. There were so many to register that some very nearly missed the turkey dinner at the dormitory. Tarleton: Was there anything unusual about the appearance of the campus? Father Time: 011 every tree or conspicuous plaee were signs, such as tOn Ye Tarletont, tWeleome Exesi, tFight, Plowboys, Fighti, WVeh-ome Hornetst, tBeat Grubbs,y tHit That Line Hardy; also there were posters on every hand with the names of the Tarleton team and an individual message for each. Tarleton: What happened about eleven t'orty-tive a. 111.? Father Time: The entire Tarleton student body, clad in khaki 01' l'obed in purple and white, marched to the station in military fashion to meet and welcome the city of Arlington, theme of Grubbsi, to the fair city of Stephenville. The student bodies and faculties marched to the court house lawn. Tarleton: Did a group of students assemble at the station at any time previous to the arrival of the Grubbs Special? Father Time: Yes. The Officers' Club of Tarleton met and practiced the many eoul'tesies that they were to extend. Tarleton: Where did the two groups go from the square of Stephenville? Father Time: They marched on the campus to the tune of tOn Ye Tar- letont. One Hundred Seventy-anc Thanksgiving Day, Nineteen Hundred Twenty-five Continued Tarleton: What happened during the interval of time after the grand march and the time of the ball game? Father Time: A number of girls dressed in pure white and royal purple, stationed at different places on the campus, sold tSouveuir Score Boardsy. Tarleton: Vt'ho purchased the majority that were sold? Father Time: The Tarleton students and Exes. Tarleton: Why did not the Gruhbs students buy the tSouvenir Score Boardsy readily ?-the lineup of both teams was on the front page. Father Time: They said that they did not need a seam board to keep mum of Tarletonys score, and that theil's' would be so great that it would be necessary to have a Burroughs Adding machine to calculate it. Tarleton: Who won the game? Father Time: Tarleton. Tarleton: What was the score? Father Time: 44-6. Tarleton: Did the Grubbs student body have a college spirit eompm-ahle with the Tarleton spirit? Father Time: Their pep did not last. It had about as much effect as one snow flake does in a big furnace of fire. Tarleton: How did Tarleton win the game? Did they win by superior force or by eo-operation? Just state it as you saw it. Father Time: Tarleton won because the team, including the twelfth man,- The College Spirite, was one big unit. Tarleton: Did not the Grubhs students work together? Father Time: No. Their twelfth man was weak. Tarleton: XVhat happened just after the game? Father Time: The Tarleton boys carried the football men on their shoulders to the gymnasium. Tarleton: Did the excitement cease when the Grubbs Special moved out of town? Father Time: No. It was just starting. Tarleton: What happened then? Father Time: The Tarleton students met at the Varsity. Then the grand shirt tail parade through town began. The meeting around the bonfire was a typical pep meeting, with only the place of assembly changed temporarily. Tarleton: Did the Tarleton student body extend all of the intended eourtesies? Father Time: No. Tarleton: Why not? Father Time: They failed to get to the station before the train arrived, and the Grubbs students were off the train when the Tarletou students marched on the scene. Tarleton: Did Tarleton seem thankful on this memorable occasion? threw Argent I926 Wtw One Hundred Seveniwwo weeqarxswuglmw -- 7h,,, ,, 7 ian- ' Thanksgiving Day, Nineteen Hundred Twenty-five Gondnued I i Father Time: Yes.

Other gentle gusts followed as if in pursuit, but; fell to the earth, causing a rippling movement of the new blades of grass which formed a soft, smooth bed around the fountain. The lyrical note of a mocking bird, perched in the branches of a post oak tree which overspread the fountain, aroused the boy from his reverie. As he glanced ' ' up, he saw the flag. How beautiful it looked as it fluttered in the last rays of the ' setting sun! And as he reverently saluted Old Glory, he thought of the great and noble things of which it is a symbol. It made him sad to think that this was ' the last time he would see it lowered while he was a Tarleton cadet.

One Hundred Eighty-two we G RAS s 13 uRlb Kisser; The Invisible Emperor T was: in the year of our Lord 1923, in the land of jazz, that a great and mighty god of Radio called Antenna came and con- quered many of its inhabitants. This great Ruler reigned over his people through noblemen called Broadcasters. These Broadcasters ruled very tyraniezilly. Yea, the subjects were often forced to sit far into the night listening to various howls and screeehes that were sent out by the god Antenna. Sometimes the Broadcasters entertained their people, called Reeeivers, by jokes and jazz-musie, but frequently tormented them by long speeches and high singing. However, as time passed, Antenna was not pleased by ruling these people only at night, so he east about for other means of holding his subjects. He then commanded the Broadcasters to keep the Receiversl attention in the Llay-time as well as in the night. But Antenna had a great and powerful enemy called Static. Now this god was stronger in the day-time than Antenna. The latter lost many a subject by this godls foul play. And some of the prophets of the land predicted that someone would overcome this mighty Static, and then peace would be restored. i The people rejoiced to hear this, and the many subjects of Antenna were zealously striving to help conquer their mighty enemy. May Static be overcome and the great Antenna rule by day as well as by night throughout the entire land! aCOll'ins Maarhousc Leisure Hours Sunlight and day wane,i A flag staff gaunt and high, Moon beam and campus glow, The light in a Maidenls eye, A broad white walk, A erooked small path, Wind high or breathing low, Crisp brown grass or soft green grassr- By these forever know That the free glud hour At the end of a day Makes a Maidenls light heart glow. -Ed1m Watson Amw 926 mm QTY ,J Eng One H undred Eightu-three $353: 5:63 s B UWQL: 5:, Shorty says that any old cat can be the can ttMeow , but it takes a Tom cat to be a catys pawl Miss Lewis: HPat, what do you know about the age of Elizabeth?

Among the females, he was known as the HBlaek StreakH. i Weakly Hart was the HDzu'k-Town JellyH in Sombei'. Everyone knew he i 1 Cal Straley was not so fortunate as Weakly in the matter of money and 1 wearing apparel; in fact, this particular afternoon he was destitute of both. He generally made up for his lack of means by his originality, but this time he had struck a knot, for he, as well as Weakly, was invited to Sally7s party. 1 HH Ahki jes rescued dem shoes out Oh dat game las' night, moaned Pal.

Ah'd rutha she'd insulted me.H At that moment Weaklyk Dodge coupe nosed a half-dnzen dirty ttSmokesiy nut 01' the read, and stopped in front of Calis lowly dwelling. Weakly dis- mounted with a emideseending air and approached the house. Cal saw the gravels turn to gold under his feet as he walked and whispered with hated breath Gosh, if Ah s as rich as him4 i i t Say, I heahd yo had in yo possession a himisome Airdale canine ob de 1 '1 pedigreed variety, said Weakly, when he saw Cal, Hand as AhYs gain1 to town ii to get 11m shoes shined Ah thought as it you might be enhanced with the oppoytunitV 0b sellin' him.

But at the same instant, his lips formed the single word, HSold , and when the 1 1 darkness cleared from his eyesY he saw his dog in Weaklyis measley six bits in his it P own hand. He also saw some other things which had not attracted his attention 1' i before that time. They were the rich glow of a pair of oxfords, a high-tupped 1 hat, and a geld-topped cane. Cnl was the abbreviation ef calculate; so Cal 1 1 guessed as accurately as anything where they would be unloaded. i He flipped one of his coins and said, ti Heads Ah win, tails he lose ; H then sat i i down and planned his attack. 61; i 19-10, , , T: , , , , 12.3 One Hundred Eighiymine a W GRASSB URRJ 1:13:15! ,. 4m Hearts and Double Crosses Continued Weakly7s machine finally bounced out of the alley and drew up in front of the Red, W'hite, and Blue Barber, Tailor, and Shine Shop. Weakly himself descended to the rotten hoard walk and instructed the shine boy to see that everything was brushed and brightened; then proeeeded t0 the jewelry store to purchase a star- Spangled harness and chain for his dog. In a short time he returned and imparted, HAh shall retutn in about two hours fah ma clothes, or Ah may seny t'ah themfy He had hardly rounded the corner when Cal stepped from behind a barrel, walked to the door, and said in such an authoritative voice that it shook the foundation of the building: HBy Mistah Hahtk instructions, altah dem hreeehes to de extent ob ade vauein, Iem de equality ob one inch at de lowah extremity, and to hah it done in de exact space 0b allotted time it takes de lengthiest hand ob his Elgin to envah thirty black mahks. IIe likewise interrogates dat Ah stays heah 21nd hah it done wid et't'ieient dispatch.7y And bringing his fist down upon a frag'le chair, he thundered, ttgit at it!'7 The shine boy grabbed the shoes; the barber wound the antiquated clock; and the tailor put on so much steam that it filled the room like a dense tug. In less than twenty minutes the clothes were in his hands, and he was galloping over the rocks and pitfalls in the alley in which he lived. He went through his bath so quickly that it warmed the water, which was much too quick for a negro who had just finished a mile dash; and then pro- ceeded to try on his newly acquired clothes. In less than a minute he had them on. Stepping before the cracked mirror, he could not retain outward admiration for himself; HDat inch addition was a stroke of art. Bey, howdy, he exploded, ttif Ah aintt de tarantula's tramway, they ain,t no chance tuh a lost soul. Lawd 0b goodness! AhId make a glass eye lose its pupil. Dean touch me, feller, Ahts hot. At the Red, White, and Blue, there was a reaction. Each of the workers lounged lazily in his respective placey and conversation predominated industry exactly one hundred per cent. HFunny thing about it is, Ah t'o'got to look at dat miy,H exclaimed the shine boy. UYou didny yxaetly act like you thought it was funny when he spoke,H answered the tailor sareastically. HYas, any a lot youall yeiself knows about how Shine acted, when ytfall had dat pressah imos' blowed up wit steam. Fact is, we didn't none 0b us see yem. HWeakly returned in two hours with the most wonderful harness and chain the Somber people had ever seen on a dog, and the Airdale was learning what he was supposed to do at every slight jerk or twist of the chain. ma? : Lag: Aemm 1926 mam Wig One Hundred Ninety reefs: 919 S S 13 UR'Szglssm W5 ' .7; 1:2 Hearts and Double Crosses Concluded Vt'hen Weakly opened the door, the shop force snapped to attention about as quickly as it would take to bat an eyeeit' the eye were half as big. Fear filled their hearts, for the thought came to them that some speck of dirt had settled on his hat or trousers. UVtr'ell, gimme mah clothes and hat,H he said irritably. Every month in the shop lost its hinges and dropped open. The barber was the first to regain a humanly visage; so he advanced a step and answered diplomatically, Yul sho, am had too mueh worry on yo, brow, Mr. Haht, 'eause yoy done sent a suhvant t'ah dem a houah ago. an' yoy dean ymembah it.H HSay, yoy bunch of low-down liars,H stormed Weakly, Hdoes yol reilize de impawtanee oh who Ah is. Ah's W'eakly Haht. Ah ain't askin' fah no jokes. Ah wants my clothes. He had just as well not have spoken, for the Red, White and Blue force was not there; and something else was not there; that is, the back wall of that shop. Oh yes, there had been one, but there was not any more. The dog had not been trained to do anything dignified when his master was tearing up an establishment; so he sought shelter under the only roof he had ever known. He hardly attained his goal, but he did find safety, for Cal was just blowing the light out when he saw the glittering chain; and, as he had an ex eellent eye for glittering things tonight, he was not long in finding the chain with his dog on the end of it To Cal, the 01d alley was paved with pearls. He did not so much as stumble, for even though his head was high, his steps were high, too. He arrived at Sallyys at the psychological time, When he entered the door, the llghts gave one long stare, winked, sputtered, flared, and went out. No one knows whether they were ashamed, whether they were blown out by the men when the sight of Cal knocked the breath from them. or whether Sally deliberately blew them out; but it is a fairly safe guess that he was the only one there whom she wanted to let talk to her in a none-too-brilliunt place. What was intended to be a grand gathering evolved into a tete-a-tete, which no one should know about, but it was upon that night that Cal accumulated something worth far more than clothes and money. He accumulated a wife! Next morning the news came to Cal from the Somber lawyer that Weakly had died in the night. Cal paled invisibly and asked, HWhatls dc mattah wid tim? HHeart t1'ouhle,', answered the lawyer. HTook it about sundown yesterday afternoon, revived only long enough to write his will; then passed away. Here's the will. Cal opened the document and read: HAll my belongings, I do hereby will to my best friend, Cal Straley.H Cal said not one word, but howed in humble submission to the partial Fates. e17 erbcrt Fagan .A V,r One Hundred Ninety-one hwy, -th- 4 a 0110 Hundrt'rl Ninaty-tlw , V gewc 1953,32 U RRJ $1ii-f-jm Rookie Reminiscences ' I Fall in we did, at the command; For what else could we do?

Vindication OR any action or deed there is usually a cause or reason to which the enactment of the happening may be attributedesome things, on the other hand, just happen. In the course of human events, those occurrences coming at the most unexpected time are the ones most vividly impressed upon the memory. In these unguarded moments, the imagination of the individual has no bounds; friendships give way to hatred in the twinkling of an eye; plans are formulated in an instant; judgment is passed without thought of arbitration 0r recon- ciliation; circumstantial facts predispose the truth in the matter. It is best to be frank and straightforward iu recounting the following in- cident by presenting the details and the characters as they really were. The affair was, within itself, unmistakably barbarian, besides placing a permanent, though unjustifiable, blotch upon this irreproachable institution, John Tarleton College. It is a strange thing how we may be deceived by those whom we consider our friends. While they are friendly outwardly, coals 0f enmity, contempt, and hatred lie smoldering inside, to burst into flame at the least stirring, and thence to burn away long-fonned bonds of confidence and friendship. Fred Brownlee tif the reader will permit, we shall call him ttMoeo , for that is the name by which his Student companions knew himt outlawed himself forever from his friends and society by allowing his temper t0 overpower him for just an instant. Earliest Coleman ta better liked lad has never stayed in the Fort than HDeitheriU was the unfortunate victim of circumstances and mis- understanding. It might be well to say, at the outset, that the main purpose of his writing is to exonerate Tarleton as an institution from any blame by those who are unacquainted with the truth of the matter. It was unavoidable. The authorities could not possibly have prevented it. It all began ever a matter too trifling to mention. As a consequence, how- ever, Moco became bitterly angered at HDeither . The matter finally culminated in the tragedy to be related below. The trouble started several weeks before the Christmas holidayst Moeo, sullen and brewing, threatened to settle the trouble forcibly at the slightest pretext. HDeither , of the same mind as the rest of us, did not realize the seriousness of the trouble, nor the end toward which it was working. For this reason he extended his apologies to Moco, hoping to allay any further trouble. Moco would have none of it, and so matters were more com- plicated than ever. The catastrophe descended at the most unexpected and the most delicate moment. On the night of December the eighteenth, the night before the opening of the Christmas holidays, the members of the Fort were engaged in the heights of merriment and revelry. The upper elassmen, as a token of their warm friend- ship for the lower elassmen, had prepared an inviting spread in the hall. Cigars i'gwg Am 1926 Mg, hm One Hundred NinetzHour iggg: 9368 S 13 U Rib ghee O 0 0 Vindication Continued were passed, and, amid the jests and cheers, different members of the two groups mounted the table and rendered simple, but heartfelt speeches. thile all this rejoicing was going on, and while there was such a gratifying feeling of complete understanding between the individuals, Colonel Neely suggested that we send for Mueo, who was on duty at the power house. All the members voiced their approval, so Moon was summoned. Then the mex'rymaking continued. Several moments later Moco entered the hall. With one sweeping glance, he caustically surveyed the group. Then he approached the table. Refusing a chair placed at his disposal, he gulped down a cup of steaming hot chocolate. Then, pushing a cigar away with a few gruff remarks, he walked straight towards 'tDeither . Everyone in the crowd realized the significance attached to such a move. A hush fell over the assembly. UCome into this room; I want to talk to you, Mom commanded HDeither . Not wishing to create a disturbance, ttDeithertl reluctantly followed Moco into the room and closed the door. The loud voices that followed indicated that a heated argument was going on in the room. With a determination to discharge his duties faithfully, Colonel Neely demanded entrance into the room. The door opened; Colonel Neely entered, and the door closed again. The loud voices began once more. In a few minutes they were lowered, and after an elapse of several minutes, the three men came out 01' the room. It seemed that some point of pacification had been reached. Colonel Neely was the first to speak: HI regret,H began the Colonel, Hthat this happened tonightaU HBe sure you tell them the straight of it,H broke in Moeo rudely. HMenH, began the Colonel ugain-, ttMelW, snorted Moeo, chere's not a man in the crowd. With these words he turned on his heels and left the hall. The group remained silent. Then, and only then, did they realize Moeois contemptibleness, and the knowledge was thrust upon them that things were not as they should be. Again the Colonel's sortance met the occasion. HIt is indeed regrettable that this incident occurred tonightf7 spoke the Colonel thoughtfully, ttthis is the first time to my knowledge that trouble has ever arisen between two Fort memhels. I hope that you will do all that is in your power to readjust matters. Now, he added after a slight pause, Nlet us all go to our rooms and quiet down That is all for tonight. Following this abrupt conclusiony the students dispersed, going to their rooms. The ominous feeling present invoked much restlessness among the students, and hushed conversations were heard among small groups congregated in different rooms. It was then about ten otclock.

From out of the crowd came the explanation that Moeo had shot HDeither . There, in the hallway, lay a .38 calibre revolver. Amused by the report, Mr. Howell and several students residing near the campus came dashing into the hall. After a hasty explanation from the Colonel, Mr. Howell entered UDeither'slt room. Nealy Talbott, HDeitherls roommate, was holding the lifeless figure in his arms With Mr. Howell commanding the situation, m Deitherll was placed upon an improvised stretcher and was home to the hospital by several of the students. The room was then locked, pending an inquest. After these first moments of excitement, the first person to speak was Chester Barnes, the only eye-witness t0 the tragedy. With a sense that right and justice should win out against wrong and murder in the conflict that was sure to follow, he approached the Colonel and described the assault. HI was. lying in my bed awake,H he started, and from where my bed sits, H I had a diagonal view of the hall. I heard hasty footsteps coming up the hall. Suddenly they stopped. I had been lying there with my eyes closed, but when the footsteps ceased, I opened my eyes. Through the open door I saw Moco standing in front of HDeitherls door with leveled gun pointing towards the spot l where ltDeitherll was sleeping. Mom was trembling, and his countenance bore the expression of a condemned man, it' I ever saw one. Speechless and paralyzed, I could do nothing but lie there. I heard the hammer click on an empty chamber. In an imploring, half-whispering and half-gasping voice, Moeo uttered something t that sounded like ttMy God! Then he fired the revolvelx Dropping the gun, he i burst out of the hall into the night. The Colonel knows the rest IIe pursued Moeo, but Moco dodged him in the darkfl t For several seconds after this testimony, silence prevailed. Then the stu- H t dents roused into action. Searching patties were formed, and groups of two t and three men were dispatched to all outlets from town, in an endeavor to head I off the murderer. Throughout the night HDeitherH lay between life and death, I with a wound through his chest and right shoulder. By morning he was much in J j the same condition, and no trace of Moeo could be found. It was indeed a weary I crowd of Fort men who Hmade chowH the next morning. Paul Massey kept march with the dead in the graveyard all night watching the Dublin road. Baker and Studeman watched the depot; Brooks and MeMurrey guarded the Thurber I road; and the rest were posted here and there about the countryside tall Fish, I l j! l mind yom. Moeo's only regret was that he had to decline that cigar. eWillinm H . McKain. , m, vim t 4:53.22 17me I e ,, ,7 ,,,,,,i . t ; vi 1;; One Hundred Niaciy-siz weiti U RAS S B U RR: i3; 31?? Afterword II T has been our aim in the previous pages to put there such things as would best ex- press the love we all have for Tarleton, and such as would bring back to the reader's mind memories of the happy days of play and work spent on the dear old campus. Omissions and mistakes are many, but we hope these will be forgotten in viewing the book as a whole. The staff cannot adequately express its ap- preciation to those without whose help this book would have been a failure. There are too many for us to thank them individually, but we take this means of expressing our gratitude to them. If, in after years, the reader can turn the pages of this book and have his memory stirred to pleasant thoughts of days long past, we have accomplished our task and are thankful. -The Stuff, A J' V it; L92 6 43:43:?
