LANE Lives of Great Men Lives of great men, all remind us, We can make our lives sublimef And departing leave behind us, -Foot prints on the sands of lime. The life of our own Bishop Isaac Lane has indeed been an example to us as that of a great man. As one glances back into the history of this, our beloved institution, he is convinced that Bishop Lane has left his foot-prints on the sands of time. Blessed above many is this great man, because he has built for himself a monument and now he lives and sees it grow. The life of Washington reminds us of bravery, truth and loyalty. The life of Lincoln reminds us of honesty and freedom. We may recall the lives of an innumerable number of great men and the impression that they have left, yet none have made a greater impression on the students, graduates and former students of Lane College than this man whose name carries with it morality, self-sacrifice, perseverance and humanitarianism. I -KARLINE HARDY. Page twenty-one Lane College History 565W Forty-five years ago Lane College was founded by the Colored Methodist Church in America. Looking to the establishment of this enterprise, Novem- ber, 1878, a resolution was presented by the Rev. J. K. Daniel to the Tennessee Annual Conference, held in Nashville, Tennessee, and conducted by the sainted Bishop Miles, of the C. M. E. Church. The resolution was filed. A committee was appointed by the Conference and plans were inaugurated to advance the intended work. A severe epidemic of 1878 hindered the progress of the committee. Dur- ing this time Bishop Isaac Lane was appointed as presiding Bishop of the Tennessee Conference. He met the committee, gave advice and helped to form plans for the founding of the school. After having met with a number of difficulties, those assembled decided, at the Conference in 1879, with their small sum of finance, to purchase a lot at Jackson, Tennessee, as a con- venient location for this institution. Four acres of land were purchased Jan- uary 15, 1880, with 8240.00 Thus the work had its beginning which has been a religious and an educational factor to a great mass of uprising humanity throughout the Southland. After a lot was purchased, a greater task made its appearance, which task was the construction of a comfortable building for instruction. Through efforts put forth by Bishop Lane and his co-workers, funds were obtained and a building was begun in November of the same year. Miss Jennie E. Lane was the first teacher in this C. M. E. High School. It was instructed by her until January of the next year, when the term was successfully completed by Professor J. H. Harper, LL. D., of Jackson, Tennessee. In 1883 the school was chartered under the laws of the State of Tennes- see. This resulted in a change of title, from the C. M. E. High School to Lane Institute . The progress of the school was wonderful. The increasing number of students in 1889 was greater than the accommodating capacityg which resulted in the erection of a two-story frame building at a cost of S2,500.00. This also served as a girls' dormitory for some years. Demands grew greater as the time continued, causing a central auditorium to be erected, having beautiful towers with trimmings of stone, at a cost of 825,000.00 Rev. J. F. Saunders, D. D., was appointed in 1887 as Lane's first presi- dent. A member of the Memphis Conference, he served as president for fifteen years. His work was successful and pleasing to the Board of Trustees. In 1896, to meet a long-felt need, the College Department was organized and its name became Lane College-which name may it ever retain, and sur- round with moral and religious intelligence many thousands of Ham's sable sons. Rev. J. A. Bray, A. M., LL. D., was selected as second president. He was a member of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. His term began the 17th day of November, 1903. Within a year'the outstanding building was consumed by fire. Appeals were made to friends everywhere to help, and in 1906 the main hall was constructed, which cost 525,000.00 Three years as president Rev. Bray labored successfully. During this time many changes were made in respect to the progress of the institution. Rev. Bray retired at the close of the third term and took up work elsewhere. Page fwenfy-hvo Lane College ' ll'llis1tcrywCcm1tin1u1cd The Trustees met in May, 1907, and elected J. F. Lane, A. M., Ph. D., president. He now stands at the head of the College. Knowing thoroughly the hardships which the school had come through, as well as its objective purposes, he has contributed much to the advancement of the seat of learning. The Girls' Hall was built in 1908, with a dining hall, kitchen, bath rooms, reception hall, and with a metal roof, having beautiful stone trimmings. This is a handsome three-story building with modern conveniences, costing about 5B16,000.00. During the winter of 1908-1909 a steam heating plant was installed at a cost of 57,000.00 All buildings are steam heated and electrically lighted. Through the Educational Board of New York in 1911, President Lane received 87,000.00 to build the Boy's Dormitory. Immediately the work began and was completed in 1914, a three-story brick building, with all modern equip- ment. It is the home of the College Dean, young men, and also contains a Y. M. C. A. room and guest room. The school grew with such rapidity that in 1919 it was discovered that another building was needed, and the conclusion of this. discovery was the erection of the Cleaves' Hall. This Hall is a three-story, brick construction, with all modern conveniences, containing domestic art, science and music departments. This hall is also occupied by the upper class young ladies. It was completed in 1921 at a cost of 370,000.00 X For vocational training of ex-service men at the close of the world war, the U. S. Veterans' Bureau selected Lane College for this purpose. This necessitated a trades building and in 1923 a building was erected at a cost of 315,000.00 and dedicated to the service of the people. It is a two-story brick structure. It serves now as the Science Hall. The College auditorium was destroyed in 1921. In 1924, by the faithful efforts of interested men, the college auditorium was completed, a brick building which has a balcony and has a seating capacity of about 1,500 people. The location of these buildings is on a campus that is enticing to every one. The campus presents a beautiful inclined view. It is beautifully decorated with trees and flowers of different species. Behind the buildings the babbling brook makes its way across the campus. The attraction and beauty of the campus is made wonderful to beholdtby these various objects. Health is vigorous, attraction is unequalled, and the environment and mental conditions are unsurpassed. The pleasure that one is able to obtain from the breeezes of the balmy air on this beautiful campus prompts one with a desire to come back after he has gone away.

ISAAC LANE, Jackson, Tenn. Page twenty- three The Staff S. H. BRONAUGH Editor-in-Chief Shortly after I had been chosen as Editor of the 1928 year book, I found myself encountered con- stantly with friends, who seemingly intended to inform me of the bitter experiences that would face me as director of our year book. Days of tiresome work followed by sleepless nights, have made possible the pre- sentation of this book to you. De- spite these adversities or trials, hop- ing that you will be pleased with the fruit that is the result of many mo- ments of worry, I have pulled myself reliantly together and have concen- trated, as best I could, upon this volume. I am indeed grateful to the mem- bers of the staff, who applied them- selves diligently to their respective tasks, and it is my hope that they will only apply themselves to the problems of real life, as they have to the compilation of this book. Page twenty-four A. S. SIMS Business Manager I have been thoroughly convinced that college is a necessary prepara- tion for the duties of life's work. At college one receives the spirit to fathom out the difficult problems that are met while rendering service to humanity. After having been honored with the position as busi- ness manager of the 1928 Lanite, I became aware that the real problems had to be studied from every angle, and in executing this duty I have tried to put forth my best efforts. With the co-operation of others and their tremendous effort to work, be- lieving that unity is a conservative necessity and not publicity, I believe our task accomplished. To my fellow classmates, I am grateful to have been chosen to do this work. By virtue of my position, the principles of unity will be magni- fied in me, enriching me with such tenacity as will enable me to fight with courage, the things of life that will make the outside world a bet- ter place in which to live. x M.

During these eventful years of storm and stress, our courage has never failed us and now we find ourselves coming into port. As we anchor in this port, each will leave the ship with a Degree in his possession. Then we may see the Land of Success lying out before us. As we separate and travel through this land, each in his own chosen path, we shall ever cherish the memories of the happy days spent in the spacious state- rooms and on the rolling deck of the Grand Old Ship. Never will we forget our trustworthy Captain and his faithful crew, who have so carefully guided our course for these years. As we, the passengers of 1928, bid farewell to the ship and those following our course, we treasure them and their lessons of greater service to humanity in our hearts. As we go, each to his chosen profession, we hope to plant the flag of our Alma Mater on the highest pinnacle of Success. WWQFN Thus each extreme lo equal danger lends, Plenty, as well as want, can sep'rate friends.-Cowley. EGEEEEEEEEHEHGHGEGEGHGEEEEEGHG Page thirty-four QQQQQQQ Last Will WWQFNM At this sad hour, that we, the class of '28, are about to take our leave and start life in a real world of human experienceg and as we have braved the storm of four or more years of hardships and trials, and as we have reached the glorious heights to which we have been so earnestly striving, we feel that we would not be serving our purpose and discharging our duty if we, after a hit of experience in college life would not leave any of our knowledge, in- tellect, our business ability, our talent for music and the finer arts to you, in order that you too might occupy the places that we now enjoy. As the class of '29 follows closely in our footsteps, with the highest hopes and with all expectation of coming up to the mark we have placed before them, we leave to you, Oh Junior -the greatest gifts in all college privileges, for without these you can never feel the height of your dignity. To the Sophomores we will Intelligence, which we find a very essential element in a college career. To the Freshmen-''App1ication -for perhaps the stuff is in you if you will only bring it out.

I'l1 try to tell you a part of it, And you can guess the rest. Grandpa had sent me away to school, For an education to get, And during that time I'd made many friends, Since many girls and boys I'd met. His home was a prosperous city, Where many young people go To have success in their business, Or get what grandpa calls dough . Emma D. Steele, Lucille Jordan, And too, there was Ella Mae Rice, I didn't see very much of them, But I heard of them once or twice. They were all teaching in public schools In a town not far away. Now, grandpa tells me truthfully That he sees them every day. When he told me of a French tutor, This was enough to amaze, For this was a private tutorship To the honor of Baby Ruth Hayes. Patti Comer and Bertha Croom, Were also teaching schools. Fannie Mae Barnes, grandpa knew her She was using her well-sharpened to, Grandpa told me a story, ols. About Mesdames Daniels and Sharp. It tickled even grandpa himself, And he was forced to laugh. Baby , those two old women, Like the one who lived in the shoe, Have so many children, They don't know what to do. They place some in the pantry, And others on the shelf, For what avail the plow or Or land or life, if freedom Page fifty-four But, don't let me forget Mrs. Anthony, Who has just as many herself. We passed by a beautiful store one day, Grandpa wouldn't let me stop, But I noticed a sign printed over the door, 1VIiss Louise Young's Style Shop . I learned since then that Miss Bennett With Miss Young was taking part. They both are dainty dresmakers, In the field of domestic art. In a music conservatory,. A Two blocks from grandpa's gate, Miss Christine Scott taught music That always suited her taste. Conolia Duffey was in Social Service work, So far as grandpa knew. I may be n1.istaken but I think he said That Lillie V. Thompson was too. There was a college that grandpa knew, It was not far away. Miss Charlie Jones was matron there And had gone to the school to stay. Grandpa had supper one night, For all my friends and meg And each of us was as happy As any one could be. Grandpa knew all my classmates, Some things he didn't tell, But he assured one thing and that thing was That all were doing well. All are rendering service To mankind where e'er they are I'm proud to see them making good Sighed my dear old aged grandpa. Just as he spoke those words to me And had not walked off the scene, I opened my eyes, and to my surprise, Grandpa's house and all was a dream. -Fannie Mae Hayes. sail, fail.-Emerson LUCY M.

NELSON The School of Theology of Lane College is quite as old as the College itself. This Seminary has to its credit many of the most leading characters-Presid- .ing Elders, and General Officers of the C. M. E. Church-and two Bishops of the Church. This Seminary is affiliated with similar schools throughout the country, and is catalogued as full fledged, doing regular Theological work covering a regular Theological Course embracing the degree of B.D., based upon an A. B. diploma of any reputable college. An English Course is provided for students who are not able to take the regular A.B. course, and upon satisfactorily completing the English Course they will be graduated with the usual English diploma without a degree. This is done in all similar Theological Institutions. Arrangements exist for conferring the D. D. degree upon Worthy min-. isters by correspondence courses after pursuing a two-years' prescribed work in literary studies in connection with the Seminary. The best lecturers are secured annually to cover all possible subjects of Theological lines. The Department numerically grows each year, and the past year has been the most satisfactory of many years. Page sixty-three H! Thelogieal Students OFFICERS J. R. COLE - - - - - President J. A. ADAMS - - Secretary O. C. BURROW ---------- Treasurer The work of the Theological Department has been so forceful and sincere that it leaves the department on a pinnacle of fame and recognition that will be the goal of other leaders of the department and of this same group of leaders in the years to come. Our thoughtful and active President made it his business to be the founder and organizer of the travelling missionary programs given by the department in the various churches of the city. A number of pulpits were filled by the different members of the department, and these humble servants, under the guidance of the President and with the Council of the Dean, have built a monument in the hearts of the people of Jackson that the greatest calamities of nature and the combined forces of the demons of destruction can not tear down, yea not even move it from its base, because that base is the base of service, a base of service for Christ and His people, regardless of race, creed or color.

The activities of the Y have been of such a nature that they will be long remembered in the minds of the people of Jackson. The spirit of service has been aroused and nothing less than death can destroy that spirit. The work has been both intellectual and spiritual. The services aroused the real fire in the students and for a time bordered on a revival. Great things are in store for the city and the-school next year, because the officers that have been elected are of the caliber that bring results that are lasting and benefi- cial. The visits from the connectional officers in the early part of the year were of much help and the advice given has been heeded and the directions that were left have been carefully and sacredly followed.

They would attempt to tackle him only to look up and see him sprinting off down the field. It was some- thing wonderful to see him evade tacklers. EUGENE TRIPLETTE Fullback Trip is one of the best ath- letes that ever donned a Dragon uniform. He could always be called upon to carry the pigskin when the team was in a pinch. Opponent tacklers dreaded his weight and speed. He will be back next year. CLINTON BRENT Captain-Qua. Ierback As a fleader, none could be found to equal him. In his three years as a regular he has brought to Jackson fans a form of tricky running that has never been seen before. He will be back next year to help put over a winning season. JAMES WOODSON HalfBack 1Vlare's spectacular broken field runs thrilled the crowds wherever he went. He gained more ground than any other man on the squad this past season. He was often called invisible be- cause he could squirm through a hole through which no one else could see. His grit and endur- ance was not to be surpassed by anyone. GARRETT GRAYE Center Dad was without a doubt the best center Lane has ever pro- duced. When in the game he put the best he had into the play. It was Dad who usually kept up the pep and fight in the team. I-Ie graduates this year and will be missed by everyone next year. FLOYD IVIE Halfback When going through a line Floyd seemingly ran between the legs of the big linemen. They simply could not find him. He was fast and shifty. He was also good in backing up the line, in many instances preventing the enemy from passing the line of scrimmage. U He leaves us this year. PHILLIP BROOKS Tackle Brooks leaves old Lane this year with the friendship of all the fel- lows. His work as a Dragon has been of the highest quality and demands the praise of everyone. He was in every game and almost every play. He always kept up the fighting spirit of the Dragons. GRAFTON BROWN Captain-elecl-End Knute is hard to beat when it comes to hard, straight playing. As an end he has been hard to beat, for he is always ready and in his place when the ball is thrown. As captain for the '28 team it is believed that the team will develop into a No. A team and maintain its position with the outstanding colleges. THOMAS COUNTEE End Because of his alternating be- tween end and halfback Count did not get to show his wares as much as the other ends, but he put out the best he had when he was on end. He showed up ex- ceptionally well against the big timber . He graduates this year and will be missed very much. ALLEN SIMS Quarterback It took two years for Happy to win a berth on the varsity but it seems as if he is here to stay. He is a brainy quarterback and is full of fight and the Old Lanite Spirit , which should help him quite a bit in his coming season. Page eighty-five DANIEL DEFOE DAVIS Guard fy RY While off the field of play Dan 'N is quite a baby but on the field I ' he is a big and powerful guard, knocking everything cold that 4 comes his way. It was quite a task for the opposing teams to gain over Defoe. We hope to have him back next vear. HERBERT NELSON Guard Herb was the lightest guard on the line, but his fighting spirit and speed brought his weight above par. Opponents found it quite a difficult task to gain over Herb's guard. We could always expect a hole when the play was directed over his guard. HANSEL AMOS Tackle Hank , the big, stalwart Okla- X homan, played his first year of college football this season and ' gained for himself many laurels. . Hank really found himself when coach placed him in tackle. It . can be said of him that he is one of the greatest scranners among the Dragons. I ... V EDMOND RAGAN Manager-End Money was one of the fastest men on the team. Altho' he loafed in practice, in a game he always did his best. He is a true sport and a clean fellow. His fighting spirit and loyalty won him an everlasting place in the hearts of his teammates. As much as we hate to lose him, he leaves us this year. . A. C. PARTEE Guard 1 Partee made good from the 3 start. He may be bashful, but . when you get him on the gridiron ' -- . M you'd be surprised . He was in MT' A the game fighting all the time. A -by E ' hard worker and never complains. . , ..- He will be back next year with this year's experience and a de- termination to fight. JOE COMPTON Center Comp's first year as a regular was fraught with much success. He is a very light fellow but he fills the position all right. He always passed the ball with as much dex- terity and ease as any veteran could. He will be back next year a full fledged Dragon. GENERAL GRANT ' ' Tackle Graves, the man of steel, is one of the most efficient tacklers Lane ever had. Oppo- nents tried only once to go off his tackle. His motto was to stop 'em in their trcaks , and this he carried out, always. He will be back next year. Page eighty-si.t' Football By G. R. Brown The past two years of football have put Lane on the map of collegiate prominence. In September, 1926, when Coach Meade called his first prac- tice, Lane College was unheard of in athletics and as a result she received little recognition in Southern sport circles. The season, 1926, opened with Philander Smith College of Little Rock, Arkansas. These very confident contenders succumbed to the fiery onslaught of the Dragons by an over- whelming score of 39-12. .Then followed Rodger Williams, Rust 1925 champions of Mississippi, M. I. and Shorter. All these teams put up stiff battles but in every game except one the Dragons emerged victorious. September, 15, 1927, brought practically all of the old Dragons back to camp for another season of stiff contests. The real strength of the Dragons was brought to light this season in contests with noted teams as Fisk, More- house and Alabama State. Although the Dragons were not successful in win- ning over these three formidable teams, they showed up Well. But the losses to these teams were more than evenly balanced by the winning from the other three teams. FISK ENTERS THE DRAGONS' DEN With the city of Jackson behind them, the Dragons journeyed over to the capital city where they hurled, their fiery darts at the Fisk Bull Dogs . Over eagerness and the woeful lack of reserves proved very detrimental to the Dragons. Davis, Triplette, Brown, Brooks and Dad Graye were the satellites around which the game revolved. Credit must be given to the functioning of the Dragons' line for it was impregnable. The aerial attack of the Bull Dogs baffled the Dragons. Even though the game ended by a 26-0 count in favor of Fisk, the great crowd of spectators was held in suspense until the last whistle blew by the Dragons' marvelous Wonder Shift . DRAGONS STAGE TRACK MEET WITH W. K. I. C. On October 29, before a large and enthusiastic crowd, the Dragons de- feated the West Kentucky Rats by the overwhelming score of 70 to 12. In the first twelve minutes of play the Dragons had piled up 19 scores. In order to test the strength of the reserves, Coach Meade pulled his regulars at the end of the first quarter. This gave the Rats a chance to score two touch- downs. After a quarter's rest the regulars came back to finish the track meet. They did. The game ended 70-12 with the Dragons at the big end of the counting. TIGERS CAGED On November 3, the Dragons set out for Mississippi Industrial College at Holly Springs, to engage in a pigskin duel with the 'l'igers . The attack of the Tigers was unbearable for the first quarter, but the Dragons, with Captain Brent leading the attack, opened up in the second quarter with a pass formation that completely tantalized the Tigers. It was in this game that Amos learned that Oklahomans were built for tackle. Ragan, Woodson, Page eighly-seven Triplette,AMcReynolds and Ivie played a stellar game, demonstrating their various abilities in side-stepping, broken-field running and, receiving of passes. The game ended, Lane, 595 M. I., 0. BEAR CATS BITE THE DUST The Armistice Day battle was set for Rust College, another Holly Springs outfit. Rust, having received much dope on Lane by seeing them perform the previous week, felt very confident that she could override the Dragons. The Bear Cats played in the Dragons' territory for the first period before they realized the grave danger they were in. The Dragons using the famous pass- ing combination, McReynolds to Ragan, crossed the goal line for the first touchdown in the first two minutes of play in the second quarter. In the third period the Dragons held the Bear Cats for downs and the attempt to kick out of danger proved detrimental to the Bear Cats. The punt fell into the hands of Captain Brent, who in turn, raced through the entire Rust aggre- gation for a second touchdown, giving Lane a 13 to 0 Victory. DRAGONS MEET DEFEAT Primed for a gruelling struggle and encouraged by the victory over Rust, the Dragons met the strong Alabama State aggregation on neutral ground, Lewis Park, Memphis, Tennessee, November 19. In eight minutes after the whistle blew to start the game, the Dragons placed the spheroid safely across the Hornets' goal line. It had been rumored that the Hornets' line could not be penetrated, but the Dragons made this a false statement by ploughing their way through almost at will. Woodson, the Invisible , wedged his way through the Hornets' line whenever he wanted to Cand that was oftenj. The game had been predicted to have been a runaway affair for the Ala- bama boys, but on account of the stellar performance of every Dragon, the score was kept down to a 19-12 defeat against Lane. THE TIGER TRIUMPH S Coach Harvey's Tigerss came up from Atlanta Thanksgiving day billed as easy pickings for the Dragons. The Atlanta boys proved themselves very different from what the Dragons had previously thought of them. Fif- teen pounds lighter to the man than the Tigers, the Dragons fought doggedly through the first half holding the lead by a 7-6 score. But in the second half by a series of line bucks and off-tackle plays the Tigers succeeded in crossing the Dragons' goal line for a second touchdown. Trip , Black Mare Brown, Graye and Captain Brent made football history against Morehouse. It was Trip who raced fifty-five yards down the sideline for the tying touchdown. It was Trip's right foot that kept the Tiger at a safe distance when the Dragons had to give up the ball. Brent returned several punts for good yardage. The game ended 13-7 for Morehouse.

MANGRUM JAMES WOODSON JOE COMPTON Page ezglzfy mne Baseball Early Spring training has given us evidence to believe that the 1928 baseball team of Lane College will be very successful. Quite a number of new players will be seen in action when the season gets under way. Judging from the way the old players, as well as the new, have been getting into form, a. vast improvement over last year's team is assured. The following men can be relied upon: Pitchers-Hardy, Graham, Murrell and Second Baseman- Graves, Turner and Johnson. Chatman. Catchers - Woodson, McReynolds and Shortstops-Ragan, Owens and Brent. Davis. Third Basemen-Nelson and Sims. First Basemen-Person, Strayhorn and Right fielders-Croom and Partee. Hamner. ' Center fielders-Triplette and Ivie. Left fielders-Berry and Roebuck. ZVWQSISQNX Basketball The first basketball team that Lane College has ever boasted in its history was produced this year. Playing only two games and winning both of these, the Lane College basketeers proved themselves worthy of much comment. We hope to have a new gym next season which will give the school more prestige in this form of athletics. Line-up: Forwards- WOODSON MCREYNOLDS COUNTEE BRENT .

We'll hit the li-n-e, line For a hundred ninety-nine, For we love Ole Lane, yes we love her all the t-i-m-e, time. Tune--Show Me The Way To Go Home. Show 'em the way to go home, They're beat and they want to go to bed. Had a game with Lane about an hour ago And the score ran to their heads. Wherever the Dragons may roam, on land, sea or foam, You can always hear them sing this song, Show 'em the way to go home. - -M. E. BROOKS. RAMBLE Now didn't they ramble, they rambled, They rambled all around. Hey! In and out of town. Hey! They rambled, they rambled, They all rambled 'til Lane Dragons cut 'em down. They rambled in the Dining Hall to get a bowl of soup, The matron hit 'em on the head and made 'em loop the loop. Rust had a rooster, they put him on the fence, The rooster crowed for Lane because he had some sense. Philander Smith had a Lion with long and shaggy hair, Lane didn't have a Lion, but Oh! her teddy bear! SWEET MEATS They were nothing but Sweet Meats for our football team. They were nothing but Sweet Meats for our football team. We baked Philander Smith, Boiled Shorter, Fried M. I., And Rust Slaw. They were nothing but Sweet Meats for our football team. HONK, HONK! That mule said honk, honk, honk, Honk, honk, honk, Honk, honk, honk! Give that mule some more hay. I had a little mule I named Lane, Give that mule some more hay. I rode his tail just to save his mane, Give that mule some more hay. I had a little mule I named him Rust, Give that mule some more hay. I fed him so much his lil' belly bust, Give that mule some more hay. -By M. E. Brooks.

When I say, I don't like here And no one could make me stay I'm only fooling, 'Cause I'd die the death of tadpole If I were sent away. All the fall I'm troubled Then in winter I complain, I'l1 be glad when spring has come and gone 'Cause I certainly am tired of Lane.
