Copyright, 1939 Rhea Smith, Editor Mary Arthur Hilliard, Business Manager ntern 878.33 Lambuth CI I 2 olleqe JACKSON, TENNESSEE SPEAKING OF PICTURES The two great oaks which guard the Administration Build- ing seem to raise ghostly fingers over the south drive. Epworth Hall appears to be rather deserted. Reason? The shot was made at 8:30 A. M. Would you recognize the pic- ture to the left? If not, just look at it in a mirror and dis- cover yourself. This picture was printed backwards through a mistake, but it makes an at- tractive scene, n ' est ce pas? The Administration Building, snapped on Commencement Day, presents a stern Grecian appearance. To the right is shown the fa- vorite spot for the campus ro- mancers. When spring is in the air, reservations for the bench are taken days in ad- vance. LETTERS TO THE EDITORS Sirs: Just when is the Lantern going out anyway? I have heard so much about it going out in the last few weeks, that I have begun to wonder what kind of operation is required to put it out. Is it snuffed out as a candle, turned out like an ordinary electric light, or do you blow it out each night before going to bed? At any rate, I hope you get it out if it requires the Jackson Fire De- partment, so Lambuth can adopt a new theme song. LETT R. ALONE. Sirs: I hear you got a college up there at Lambuth what won ' t stop, an ' bein ' in a mood fer eddication, I figger ' d I ' d better try it a whorl. Maw says I ain ' t needin ' no more book larnin ' , and that I can talk up with any of you eddicated college doods. I told her I felt it my honest duty to come up and help you college fellers out. BILL HILLY. Sirs: Any one losing a son or daughter, or dear friend, at Lambuth College, will, if they are anxious about these wanderers, probably find them strolling around over the campus in the balmy spring evenings, in groups of two, or seated on the front steps of the administration build- ing, conversing with a partner in low tones. Such persons have become infected with a very con- tagious disease, sometimes called spring fever or love- bugitis . Those persons taking the course in campusology seem most susceptible. All persons who have inclinations to wander over the campus in the evenings are warned to be prepared for symptoms of this disease which first appear in the form of a weak heart, a tendency to pair off in couples, and a lowering of the voice. I. C. MIKE HOWE. Sirs: I wish to put you on the outside of the inside story about the mad scramble that took place at Epworth Hall last night. A cigarette was found on the person of Andrew Parker, in his room, which is upstairs in the basement. At the same time, a match was found on the person of Randy Cole in his downstairs attic room. A mad scramble ensued until said cigarette and match went up in flame and a hot time was had by all. MISS LOTTA NOISE. Sirs: I have your letter of March 17, last, stating that you have not received my check for the subscription of the Lantern for the past two years and that you are in a posi- tion to make things hard on me. It would have given me and the boys at the book-store a laugh had it not come to me in an open envelope with a one-cent stamp. You say that you do not know why the debt could not have been paid long ago. Then I will enlighten you. In 1937, I bought a filling station and some negro houses. Two weeks later the negro houses burned down and I sold the filling station when the new road failed to go through, and bought some cows. The cows all caught anthrax and died. On top of that my brother stole my shot-gun and sold it to my neighbor who shot my best dog for stealing chickens and dang near got me. In 1938 I sold my farm and moved to the city. In the city I bought a little garden and started truck gar- dening and a drought came and killed everything. I rented my truck to my neighbor and he got drunk and ran it in the Ohio river. Then I moved to the river front and woke up one morning and found my chickens in the bed with me. The river was in my house and for days I ate dried bread and prayed. In 1939 I used what I thought was hair tonic and my hair came out. I went on a river excursion and dropped my false teeth in the river and darn near drowned when I fell off the boat. And now you write that you will make trouble. Well, for Pete ' s sake, if you can see where I missed any, then dig in, for I can tell you, getting money out of me will be harder than peddling Frigidaires to Eskimos. SILAS UTELLEM.

The Staff 1939 LANTERN DEDICATION . A quick retort, always accompanied by a smile, is one of the character- istics of Miss Womack, which has en- deared her to the Lambuth students. (The smile is evident in the above picture.) BECAUSE SHE EPITOMIZES THE HIGHEST FEMI- NINE IDEALS THROUGH THE FINE, BRAVE, AND WORTHWHILE QUALITIES DEMONSTRATED IN HER LIFE, WE, THE STAFF OF THE 1939 LANTERN, AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO THE FRIEND, COUNSELOR, AND INSPIRATION OF EVERY TRUE LAMBUTH STUDENT: HELEN WOMACK Registrar of the College PICTURE OF THE YEAR Here Miss Womack is pictured in her office where she efficiently tells stu- dents how many quality points they have or whether they can get a teach- er ' s certificate without such-and-such a course — An ardent basketball fan and backer of Lambuth ' s teams, Helen was taken unawares by the cameraman as she followed the progress of the M. V. C. tournament. FACULTY LIFE . DEAN OF THE COLLEGE MARVIN E. EAGLE, B.A., M.A. Professor of History A sportsman to the core, Mr. Eagle hunts, fishes, golfs — coaches the basketball teams from the sidelines. He dislikes calling students up on the carpet , but prefers classroom work where he makes historical characters human with illustrative anecdotes. DEAN OF MEN ARTHUR D. OXLEY, B.S., M.A. Professor of Biology In the classroom Mr. Oxley uses the Socratic method interspersed with a sub- tle humor. He never misses a film with Jeanette McDonald, and thinks that 1900 is an especially good year. Why? Be- cause Mendel ' s Laws of Inheritance were rediscovered and he was born. DEAN Of WOMEN WILLA HOUK, B.A., M.A. Professor of Home Economics Swimming, collecting what-nots, and dabbling in paints comprise Miss Houk ' s hobbies. She frankly confesses that most movies tire her, but Wagner in any form, and current fashions interest her avidly. 10 as seen by the LANTERN . Dr. Womack poses with his grandson, Bobby, who has just met Daddy , re- turning from one of his nu- merous road trips made in behalf of the college. Dr. R. E. Womack, president of Lambuth College, has been with the school in this capacity from the time it was founded, and has been a source of inspiration to his co-workers and to the students. He has no special dislikes, other than jazz and irregularity in any form. His reading time is absorbed mainly with biography and philosophy. The president can very often be seen on the cam- pus, talking with students and fac- ulty members. 11 VAUGHN M. AGY, B. A., M. A. Professor of Mathematics and Physics Mr. Agy reads extensively, especially novels and philosophy; likes the movies in gen- eral, Tracy, Rainer, and Muni in partic- ular. He gets a lot of kick out of teach- ing but he violently dislikes people who make way with his soap and soap dish. F. L. CHENEY, B. A. Director of Physical Education Golf is Coach ' s hobby; he likes Collier ' s and American magazines. Will Rogers was his particular favorite, but he cares little for movies in general. Pet dislike: buying Loftin a Coca-Cola. KATHARINE CLEMENT, B. A., M. A. Professor of French and Latin Miss Clement professes no dislikes, but lists among her special likes driving and cook- ing. When reading for relaxation only, prefers nice, bloody, murder mysteries. SARAH V. CLEMENT, B. A., M. A. Professor of English Professor Clement ' s likes are: reading (she is particularly fond of R. G. Moulton and Thomas Mann) ; sewing (making over old clothes Because you can ' t ruin them ) and raising flowers. Favorite music : Verdi ' s Trovatore and Chopin. Favorite poems: Browning ' s Paracelsus and G. K. Ches- terton ' s Lcpanto. CHARLES WESLEY DAVIS, B.A., M.S. A., Ph.D. Professor of Biology and Geology Dr. Davis, an S. A. E., has produced one book on laboratory methods in agriculture, and has two more in preparation — one pertaining to the Indian mounds and the other to early man in Tennessee. His spe- cial likes are collecting geologic specimens, growing evergreens, reading military his- tory, and teaching young people. ■ 12 ARTHUR E. EVANS, B. A., M. A. Professor of Modern Language Professor Evan ' s chief hobbies are the guitar and flute, and the collecting of music in the form of folksongs and ballads. Old books, of which he has quite a collection, are interesting to him; he believes that Cervantes ' Don Quixote is the greatest novel ever written. N JAMES CARR LOFTIN, B. S., M. S., Ph. D. Professor of Physical Science Doc Loftin, being of a natural scientific turn of mind, has a particular affinity for radio, photography, the movies (especialy light comedies), Kay Kyser (more light comedy), and eating; his particularly fa- vorite dish is bean soup, and his pet hate is brains and eggs . All scientific read- ing, and good biographies are all right. LEONARD C. LORENS, B. S.. M. S. Professor of Business Administration Mr. Lorens confesses that his major interest is in the Southern economic problem, and he believes that the South and Southern people have a lot to look forward to. He has no time for hobbies, as such, and reads extensively in text-books and connected material. Ambition: to play a bull-fiddle. $ ' m • RUTH MARR, B. S. IN EDUCATION, M. A. Professor of Education and Psychology Professor Marr is not conscious of any par- ticular dislikes, is interested in psycholog- ical readings, and goes particularly for needlework and hiking. MURIEL MAXWELL, B. S. Assistant Professor of Business Administration Reading (biographies and historical novels) and athletics are Miss Maxwell ' s hobbies; she believes that movies should be selected by the story rather than by the star. 13 MYRLA PECK Director of Music Miss Peck is particularly fond of horses, but likes all animals (that walk). Sew- ing, sketching, and playing the harp, are her hobbies, and her favorite musical se- lections are the Bach Masses. Pet dislike: waiting, for anything or anybody. MARY EVANS SAUNDERS Professor of Speech Miss Saunders especially likes interior deco- rating, nature study, and historical writ- ings. Her pet hobby is the entertaining of young people in an attempt to introduce them to the cultural side of college life. JAMES B. STALVEY, B. A., M. A. Professor of Social Science Athletics, particularly football and basket- ball, claim much of Mr. Stalvey ' s attention ; he revels in all political, economic, and social discussions and writings. In music, it ' s symphonies; in reading, it ' s non-fiction. AUDREE M. THOMAS, Ph. B.. M. A., B. D. Business Manager of College Assistant Professor of Religion Mr. Thomas, business manager of the col- lege, likes fiction, bird study, and the semi- classics in music. He prefers his social life in small groups, big crowds giving him the jitters . i J. R. WALKER, B. A., M. A. Professor of Religion Acting Professor of Greek Dr. Walker is completing his fifteenth year at Lambuth. He likes politics; biography; books authored by men like Stanley Jones; Chinese Checkers and travel. Says he is intolerant of intolerance. 14 MATIE FLETCHER Secretary to the President Miss Fletcher ' s hobby is research work; she loves young people between the ages of 6 months and 25 years. Symphonies take first place in her music preference. MRS. ROBERT McGOWAN Matron, Epworth Hall Ma Mac especially likes music and poetry, outdoor life, history, and social life. Her chief hobby is the study of boys and girls, and she dislikes insincerity immensely. Outstanding characteristic: her ability to keep unruffled and in her usual cheerful disposition in the midst of Epworth Hall. MRS. CLINTON A. RAMSEY Matron, Girl ' s Dormitory Mrs. Ramsey likes flower culture, current events, boys and girls, and operas. She can ' t condone unfairness.  -JM MRS. E. A. TUCKER Dietitian Mrs. Tucker likes her job of feeding hungry students better than anything else which she does. She still prefers Shakespeare, in the manner of Marlowe, Skinner, and Jefferson, over the motion picture. HELEN WOMACK, B. A. Registrar Miss Womack has no particular hobbies, but is an avid opera fan, and cannot say so much for swing . Basil Rathbone would get her vote as a favorite actor. If LANTERN EXPOSES LAMBUTH 1SSS ISS 1 ■ is i .-. ' •■ ' I s Working their way through MMM ' • Taking out for tea, (hardly at four, however) is a favorite recreation of biology laboratory workers, despite Dr. Davis ' frequent warnings of an- thrax and hoof and mouth disease. Jack Saunders, assistant in the Chemistry department, mixes up a vile brew for his Freshmen. Taking time out from his step- sweeping, J. P. Collums smiles at the cameraman. Changing a tire is hardly student work in the strictest sense of the word, but J. H. Allen, in a working mood, was so unusual that our cameraman just couldn ' t resist it. 16 STUDENTS ' WORK . college without selling magazines Loice Batts, realizing that ne- cessity is the mother of inven- tion, rigs up a chair and wagon to his lawnmower and acquires a nice coat of tan. Eugene Johnston advertises that his business is picking up. Who would have guessed it from that expression ? This industrious group, somewhat reminis- cent of the well-known WPA worker, breaks ground for the bus terminal. The wheel- barrow is a camouflage. George McKelvy, local post- man, brings glad tidings, or bills, from the Post Office. 17 SENIOR CLASS . . . • • DIGNITY PERSONIFIED! OSCAR DODDS, President; BARBARA HAWKINS, Secretary-Treasurer ; CHARLES PHELPS, Vice President. The present graduating class, composed of twenty illustrious members, was selected only after carefully considering the over- production caused by the preceding class. Of the seventy-eight freshmen enrolled in September of 1935 only eleven will re- ceive their degrees in June, the rest of the members being made up largely of students transferring from other institutions. What better motto could be adopted than Not quantity, but quality ? During the second week a class election was held and Oscar Dodds was selected as class president. Charles Phelps and Barbara Hawkins were elected to the respective offices of Vice President and Secretary-Treasurer. Members of the Student Council chosen were Mabel Bonner, Mary D. Lassiter, Rhea Smith, Bill Wildbur. During the winter quarter President Dodds accepted a position at Phillippi as teacher and vice- president Phelps took his place temporarily. Dodds, Mrs. Howard Graves, Harold Tillman, and Homer Johns will re- turn in June for graduation. MARTHA FRANCES SAWYER Corinth, Mississippi Candidate for B. A.

W. C. MORGAN President IMOGENE UNDERWOOD Secretary-treasurer KELLY FUSSELL Vice-President The Sophomore Class of Lambuth College ranks second in number — exceeded only by the Freshmen. In October, the class election was held and the loudly proclaimed results were that W. C. Morgan was elected president, Kelly Fussell, vice-presi- dent, and Imogene Underwood, secretary-treasurer. It was under the guidance of these three that the class held a musical program in chapel in November. The class abounds in note-worthy people: There are around twenty-five of the Civilian Conservation Corps boys in this class. The captain of the girls ' Basketball team, and recently chosen the best-all-around player in the Mississippi Valley Conference tournament, is Fannie Barlow, a Sophomore. In an election held in March, Mary Evelyn Cocke was chosen the best-all-around and most liked student in the class. One of the noisiest of all cheer-leaders, of all times, is Robbie Steele, also a Sophomore. Each year the class gains more in every way — scholastically, energetically, and hopefully. Maybe by the time the Sopho- mores become Seniors, they will be all they ever could hope to be. HUGH HEABERG JACKSON, TENNESSEE FRANCES CLEMONS JACKSON, TENNESSEE MARK LITTLETON ASHLAND.

All year, upperclassmen found them a source of amusement, retaliation for past suffering, and convenience. Freshman week was a nightmare in prospect, in reality, and in memory. Upon command, the class, as a whole, blos- somed out as green as wild onions in the spring time and almost as offensive to the eye as an onion is to the nose. All wore green bloomers, green caps, and slunk in by the rear entrance with shoe boxes under their arms. Clasped in one hand each carried, not a lily, but a green balloon. The tormentors seemed fiendishly in- spired, inventing stunts to make the helpless ones ridiculous. This week of misery proved that the weaker sex is the stronger in the face of ridicule, for the boys were practically invisible the whole week — they simply hid in Epworth Hall.

Christmas Brings Out the Aesthetic THE LANTERN GIVES YOU A STEP BY STEP AC- COUNT OF HOW THESE DECORATIONS WERE PUT UP. . . . Working from the bottom up is a very logical procedure in any under- taking, and decorating the Lambuth Administration Building is no excep- tion. Here a crew of workers ascend by means of an extension ladder. The camels were raised from the south end by ropes. The figure peering down from above is Dr. Loftin, who super- intended construction. Quentin Dotson patches up a camel ' s ear, injured on the ascension. The white border aids visibility. Here ' s how the Magi looked set up in the daylight. The tin pans are the footlights. Backlighting was first tried in an attempt to create a silhouette effect, but front lighting was found to be more effective. Heave-ho, me hearties , up goes the first figure. They were attached on the wooden horses and then anchored with wire. Despite their protection one of them blew down a few days after Christmas. The Wise Men at Night . . . the Christmas tree, lighted by some twenty-five strings of lights, was secured through the cooperation of the CCC boys. 44 Hsui Li Yui, a student of Scar- ritt College, was brought to the campus by the Student Volunteers. She lectured on Chinese affairs and stated that when so-called democratic nations stopped sending arms to Japan, China would easily win the war. King Vivian, Phi Beta Kappa, was on the Lambuth campus while holding the Young People ' s Re- vival. He lectured at several classes, notably at the Biology A section. Here he said in connection with his evolution lecture: When we look at some men and some monkeys we really should apolo- gize. PEOPLE THESE HAVE BEEN VISITORS ON THE LAMBUTH CAMPUS THIS YEAR Dr. P. J. Palmore, a Japanese mission- ary, exhibited his curios during a chapel exercise. Wishing to deal with Japan more from the cultural angle, he would not comment on the war situation. Bobby, with his vivid imagination and Unca Idy has captured the hearts of the campus with one fell swoop. He is the grandson of Dr. Womack, who is a very proud grandpere. 45 THE o rqan On the following pages the LANTERN presents a pictorial account of the active LIFE of Lambuth College. izations KAPPA PHI EPSILON STUDENT GOVERNMENT . The Student Government ended another successful year under the still young constitution which was ratified in 1936. The Student Council, the main organ of the Student Government, was headed by Leon Holmes, vice-president of the student body. Some of its sessions resembled the well known state legislative bodies, but were not quite rowdy enough to be com- pared to a Congressional session. Probably the most important piece of legislation which this body acted upon was the passing of a constitutional amendment concerning the function of the Judicial Committee in the counting of the ballots in student elections. The Judicial Committee accomplished good results in its work under the leader- ship of Wilson Hall, a Junior, who acted as Chief Justice.

From the time that their theme was chosen there began a pernicious clicking of shutters and scratching of pens in an attempt to present college LIFE in a slightly unvar- nished state.

They made many successful public appearances in churches and schools throughout the territoiy. 64 MUSIC The trumpet section of the Lambuth band looks indeed lackadaisical during a lull in their after- noon rehearsal. Glee Club members practice every Tuesday and Thursday to avoid discords and blue notes when put to public test. Clarence A. Wallick, director of the Band, par- ticularly dislikes chewing gum and patting feet at band rehearsals; he likes wood working and gar- dening. Some day he will get back to nature and start farming. Mr. Wallick stops his band momentarily for a discussion of a sostenuto movement. Or maybe it ' s a clarinet cadenza they ' re holding their breath over. At basketball games the band seats (or stands) itself promiscuously around the balcony. They aided materially with their music this year. 65 Arthur D.

The team was built around two regulars from last year. Additions from the fresh- man class and several sophomores gave the Eagles a fast but small team that lacked only experience. This team took the floor night after night and took some heart-breaking defeats, but as the season closed they found their eye and with their little experience they rounded into a team of the first water. The high lights of the season came when the Eagles downed Alabama State Teachers and David Lipscomb on a week end trip, and returned and lost to U. T. Jrs. Following this game came the 55-24 victory over Alabama Teach- ers, a one point loss to Arkansas State, a one point win over Northwest and a one point loss to Freed Hardeman. The Eagles disposed of their tourney opponent in the first round by a 60-34 count but wilted before the David Lipscomb boys in the semi-finals.

Another game with the same team was required, however, be- fore the offense clicked and the small but effi- cient forwards showed that they knew their business. Following these two early wins the Eaglettes lost to Martin by one point; they also lost to Northwest, but avenged this defeat at the next meeting. The Eaglettes ' conference season could hardly be called a roaring success as they won only two games out of six, but their play against the taller independent teams served to give them the experience and stamina to again de- feat the tall, rangy outfit from Northwest Junior College as the conference Tournament ap- proached. Martin Junior College was the only team to ecsape the wrath of the Eaglettes during the season, and the Eaglettes drew them in the tournament.

O. _Jt 9 Where a crippled darkhorse turns out to be a thoroughbred nightmare ournamen t The Lambuth Eaglettes went into the M. V. C. Tournament this year with a record of eight wins and four losses and a greatly improving team, only to enter the first game with the Martin Junior College with a crippled forward and a star guard out with influenza. A quick consultation was held and Coach Cheney recalled a guard, taped a swollen ankle and put his team on the floor. He crossed his fingers and pulled on his hat and while the guards held Martin to 15 points the forwards piled up 36 to gain the semi-finals. The finals brought together the strong Northwest Junior College and our Eaglettes and from the first it was a battle for points with the Mississippi girls holding the lead at the half, 13-12. The third quarter was fast with point matching point and never more than a two point lead, one way or the other. Then with a 5 point lead and only 2 minutes to go, a Lambuth guard was disqualified. Northwest then put in two field goals but before they could get the ball again the game was over and the Eaglettes were again champions of the M. V. C. with a 30-29 triumph.
