Che Church DR. D. M. NELSON PRESIDENT Has assumed a new role in the PRIME OF LIFE WITH EVERY FIBER OF HIS SYMPATHETIC NATURE DE- VOTED AND CONSECRATED TO THE TASK THAT LIES BEFORE HIM. HIS ADMINISTRATION THIS YEAR GIVES PROMISE OF A LONG AND ILLUS- TRIOUS SERVICE. THROUGH 1 Nine years after Mississippi became a state, a college was founded which was destined to be a powerful factor in the history of this country. This college was none other than what is now known as Mississippi College. Between the generations of then and now lies more than a century of struggle and achievement, of the devotion and sacrifice of M. C. graduates who have given their time, their money, and their lives in the upbuilding of modern civilization. It is in commemoration of the con- secrated efforts of these who have gone out from this institution of learning that the present student body has chosen, within the pages of the 1933 Tribesman, to pay a simple tribute to the Mississippi College alumni, who have played such an important role in the progress of the Magnolia State. Quite frequently one may hear from those who are not familiar with the facts such a remark as this: “Mississippi College doesn’t turn out anything except teachers and preachers.” While it is true that the College, owned and controlled since 1850 by the Baptists of Mississippi, has turned out many well-trained preachers and teachers, without whom the state of Mississippi and the country at large would be poor indeed, yet the above statement is by no means true. However, though sometimes made in derision, this epithet, if it might be termed that, should in reality be considered a com- pliment. The very fact that the world has taken note of the preachers and teachers who have gone out from her historic walls serves to emphasize the place the College has taken in these two very important fields of leadership. But the part which she has played in these two fields of service is by no means the extent to which her influence has reached. Her graduates have blazed the trail in every walk of life, ever pressing on with the rugged spirit of the pioneer. A recent census of the alumni who graduated prior to 1932 will give evidence of the wide range of professions in which Mississippi College men are engaged. The tabulation will include only those who are now living, one thousand seven hundred and fifty in number. Two hundred and eighteen of these are active ministers of the gospel. Fifteen are serving in various other capacities in active denominational work on the home field. Fifteen others are missionaries on foreign fields. Of those going into the teaching profession, it is very significant that during the past year four of the Senior College Presidents in Mississippi were counted among Mississippi College alumni, and a fifth did the major part of his undergraduate work under her instructors. Six of the presidents of junior colleges and eighteen of the forty-six agricultural high school principals were graduates. Twenty-one of the county superintendents of schools in Mississippi were graduates or former students. Approximately seventy-five of the above number are teaching in colleges and uni- versities throughout the country. These are in all types of institutions, from the smallest college to the largest university, in all types of college work from straight teaching to research. PAGE 70 I the years 1 wo hundred and twenty-five are engaged in business pursuits, such as plantation managers, farmers, bankers, bank examiners, auditors, insurance men, oil experts, gov- ernment clerks, druggists, merchants, salesmen, brokers, real estate men, railway men, cotton buyers, editors, reporters, printers, managers of theatres, managers of tobacco companies, publishing houses, architects, employees of mail order houses, and jewelers. In another group — professional men — lawyers are the most numerous; one hun- dred and sixteen Mississippi College graduates are now engaged in law and politics. I his number includes federal attorneys, state supreme court judges, attorney-generals, governors, and congressmen. Seventy are now practicing medicine. This profession shows a decided increase among the alumni in the last few years. T hirty-three graduates are now in the technical professions: engineering, commer- cial chemistry, and commercial physics. One of these men did the principal work in developing cellophane. Some of the distinguished graduates whose pictures appear in this publication are: Or. J. B. Lawrence, Executive Secretary of the Home Mission Board; Dr. B. D. Gray, Corresponding Secretary of the Home Mission Board; Hon. Chas. H. Brough, ex-Governor of Arkansas; Mr. E. D. Kenna, head of the State Highway Commission ; Dr. H. M. Weathersby, Dean of Louisiana College; Dr. N. N. Puckett, Western Re- serve University; Dr. W. M. Kethley, President of Delta State Teachers College; Mr. J. G. Chastain, Jr., High School Superintendent; Dr. Lawrence T. Lowrey, President of Blue Mountain College; Mr. W. E. Holcomb, President of Mississippi Woman s College; Dr. Chas. D. Blassingame, surgeon; Dr. Charles D. Johnson, Presi- dent Ouachita College; Rev. J. L. Boyd, Pastor First Baptist Church of Vicksburg; Dr. E. God bold, Secretary of Baptist Association of Missouri; Dr. J. W. Lee, Pastor at Batesville; Mr. Robert Gandy, Insurance Agent in Jackson; Mr. W. A. Han- cock, Alumni Secretary; Mr. M. P. L. Berry, President of Hillman College; Hon. Albert S. Bozeman, Lawyer and Attorney; Dr. W. A. Sullivan, Pastor of Natchez l irst Church; Rev. J. G. Chastain, Missionary to Mexico; Hon. W. M. Whitting- ton, L. S. Representative; Dr. W. T. Lowrey, former President of Mississippi Col- lege; Hon. Greek Rice, State Attorney; Dr. O. M. Johnson, Head of the Department of Romance Languages of Leland Stanford; Dr. R. W. Hall, physician and spe- cialist in Jackson. I hese are only a few of the many who through the years have gone forth from this noble institution to write their names indelibly across the pages of human history. When they have left the stage, others will come, as Mississippi College continues to send out an ever-increasing Hood of w r ell-trained Christian manhood to hold aloft the beacon-light of truth and virtue.

College bright as morning ' s virgin queen, That star-inset, Mirrored in her heart is service seen; Gifted scholars in her halls are met, Planting in the youthful mind the thought: Wisdom is the fruit of knowledge sought, Light ' s true inlet. Alma Mater, beacon pure and fair, Thou shining light, Guiding thirsty youth to fountains rare, Teachest lessons full of truth and right. Kindred thoughts and sympathies the same, Mingle incense on thine altar-flame, In winged flight. Passion burning with thy heart ' s desire, Divining the choice, Kindles essence of that sacred fire, Making body, mind, and soul rejoice, Magic mighty as divining rods, Moulding clay to men and men to gods, The Spirit ' s voice.

PAGE 76 N The Tribesman HILLMAN BASKETBALL Hillman College has always had a successful basketball team. This year of 1933 was no exception. The team played only four-year college and independent teams. This season, they lost only one game. “The Stute” team this year was coached by “Jimmy” Allen of Amory, Mississippi. This was Coach Allen’s second year in this capacity. Anne McMillan, of Hickory, captain and forward, led the team to many victories. Captain “Mac” was a star player, being high pointer in many games. Whether the ball was “shot” from the middle of the floor or under the goal, it went in when tossed by her. Anne is a Senior and will surely be missed next year. Co-worker with Captain McMillan for forward position was Frances Lee, of Ludlow. Fran- ces played the game and played it well. When it came to shooting surprise shots under the op- ponent’s heavy guarding, she was always on her toes. Jewel Douglas, of Suntag, forward, gave plenty of competition for Anne and Frances. Al- ways fighting, she not only played forward, but also guard and center. Janie Lee divided time at jump-center and run-center, Lou Alice Musgrove, of Stringer, giv- ing Janie competition at the jumping position. These girls played ball to perfection. Their floor work showed marked skill of balance and a great deal of training. Davis Simmons, of Tylertown, and Rebecca Williamson, of Fanin, held the post as guards. Roth served very efficiently in this capacity. Katie Belle “Shorty” Gaston gave competition to contenders for the position of run-center. “Shorty” always moved when the time came for action. Nancy Neal, of Clinton, could be depended upon to fill capably the guard position. Vesta Myers, of Clinton, could move over the center floor when needed. Her jumping was excellent. The prospects for the coming season are exceedingly bright.

For four years he exhibited the principle of good sportsmanship in all collegiate and intercollegiate activities. His efficient, conscientious work remains as its own monument and tribute to his accomplish- ments. PAGE 82 ' X The Tribesman THE M CLUB On the M. C. campus the wearers of the M, those warriors who fight for the Choctaws on the athletic fields, are hound together in a compact union which is called the M Club. The M Club is one of the most in- fluential organizations in the Indian camp. During its existence, short though it has been, it has numbered among its members some of the most outstanding athletes of the South. Every true Choctaw honors the M Club. Tobe” Reno Best Athlete , In being acclaimed the best athlete two years in succession, “Tobe” Reno received the highest tribute of praise that could be awarded to a Choctaw ath- lete by a student body. Always, for four years, whether on the gridiron, the cage floor, or on the track, Reno was always found giving his best, not for self-glory, but for the glory of his Alma Mater. “Tobe” Reno Best Athlete PAGE 83 r - V. the COACH I The athletic coaching and general program of Phys- ical Education in Mississippi College are under the direc- tion of Head Coach Stanley Robinson and Assistant Coach Lewis Wilson. Throughout Mississippi and the South these two coaches are well known for their own abilities in athletic activities in their college days and for their remarkable ability in the production of well-balanced and well-coached teams. Coach Robinson, who is head coach, is a graduate of Colgate University, Hamilton, New York. During his student days Coach Robinson distinguished himself on the gridiron to the extent that he was chosen the All- American quarterback, a distinction not frequently held by coaches in small colleges. An indication of the esteem in which his Alma Mater holds him is the yearly invita- tion which the Mississippi College football squad receives to come for a game in Hamilton, New York. In two terms of service, Coach Robinson has been with Missis- sippi College for eight years. He has also served with splendid success at Mississippi State College and at Mer- cer University. Under his instruction an imposing array of unexcelled young manhood has received instruction in the various athletic endeavors of the college. Coach Robinson is particularly adept at training so-called “unpromis- ing” students into positions of excellence on the football and baseball fields. Handi- capped by a dearth of material, he has had to rely on quality rather than quantity. This quality is brought to surface through the intensive training and coaching of this capable mentor. This is evidenced by the fact that for a number of years the Choctaw eleven has escaped with a major portion of the scalps of its collegiate rivals. Assistant Coach Wilson is a graduate of Mississippi College, Class of 1927. As a student he was noted for his all-round ability in sports and was recognized as one of the most o utstanding students in the college. In football, basketball, and baseball he performed with unusual skill, receiving varsity letters in each of these sports. After one year of high school coaching he returned to Mississippi College as assistant coach. One of the greatest compliments that could come to any coach came to Coach Wilson last year. In his first year as basketball head coach he produced a squad that came through a difficult season to the S. I. A. A. championship. Stanley Robinson Head Coach During the illustrious years of service of these two able coaches, Mississippi College has done excellent work in intercollegiate athletics; especially have the years since 1924 PAGE 84 i ING STAFF been marked with splendid triumphs. Some of the athletic championships scored during these years are: S. I. A. A. Cross-Country Race for many years. S. I. A. A. Track Meet in 1928. S. I. A. A. Football Championship in 1927. S. I. A. A. Basketball Championship in 1926. S. I. A. A. Basketball Championship in 1928. State Basketball Championship in 1927. S. I. A. A. Basketball Championship in 1929. S. I. A. A. Basketball Championship in 1932. One of S. I. A. A.’s Best Tennis Teams in 1931. Foremost in S. I. A. A. Baseball ratings several sea- sons. Under the combined tutelage of Coach Robinson and Coach Wilson, Mississippi College has consistently and continually remained among the leaders in intercollegiate athletics in recent years.

He proved ef- ficient both as triple threat player and as a field gen- eral. As captain-elect, Hitt is headed for a great sea- son in 1933. Claude Lackey, Center ‘‘Bus” was shifted from tackle to center in order to strengthen the line. He did this very capably in ad- dition to serving very excellently as captain of the ’32 ’Leven. A hard player, a good fighter, a splendid leader, “Bus” will be missed by the Choctaw team. Walter Slay, Tackle “Funny” was a thorn in the side of his opponents. Combining an undying fighting spirit with an irresis- table tackling ability, Slay showed himself a genuine Choctaw 7 warrior. His power and strength stopped most of the players that came his way. Harold Jackson, Tackle Jackson, the blocky tackle, lived up to his nickname in this season’s football. Strong, alert, a hard tackier, he was indeed a Stonewall to the opposing linesmen. [ PAGE 88 I I ( ( Otto Reno, End “Tobe,” playing the same brand of ball that placed him on the all-S. I. A. A. selection and all-State, fin- ished a brilliant season of football. A fast runner, a good blocker, and a sure tackier, Tobe will be greatly missed when the squad assembles next season. Harold Ming, Halfback Ming broke into the ranks of varsity ball carriers and speedily proved a good man. His running proved espe- cially beneficial for the Choctaw’s score in several games. Since he is only a Junior, we anticipate seeing Ming in action next year. Lawrence Lovell, Tackle Lovell, a Junior, proved a mainstay in the line by his fierce defensive work. Lovell is a hard man to handle when he gets aroused, and he certainly gets aroused for the Choctaws. Charles Safley, Halfback Safley is a little man who fills a big job. He made his letter this year in the backfield. The activity of Charles is not limited to this year’s varsity football. His determination has been an aid to the team for several years. PAGE 89 Irssm Hobart Stowe rs, Fullback “Cabbage” played his last year of football in great style. The stocky fullback from the Delta proved his ability by his good defensive tackling and by his bone- crushing line drives. His absence will certainly not go unnoticed. Otho Cross, Halfback Cross completed his first year of varsity football with the record of a quick and accurate passer, a neat, well- timed runner, a consistent kicker, and a sure tackier. Such a man is invaluable to the team. Lewis Stowers, Guard “Spec” came through this year in great style. Handi- capped by the lack of weight, he overflowed with fight. He gave everything he had in every game in which he played. His place will be hard to fill. Pete Dennis, Quarterback Pete did not play in every game this season, but he exhibited some brainy football when he did play. The diminutive Senior quarterback showed the opposition some brilliant broken field running and some masterly generalship. i PAGE 90 i Percy Travis, Guard Percy wore the Gold and Blue during the 1932 season for the last time. The strength of the Choctaw line depended to a large extent upon him. He was a con- sistent player, blocking hard on offense and tackling harder on defense. Garnett Sweatt, End Garnett was one member of the squad that could always be counted on to deliver the goods. During this, his last year for the Indians, he exemplified the famous Choctaw spirit in an even greater way than in previous years. As a defensive flankman he fought well for the Choctaws. Dewey Myers, Tackle Dewey fought his way to the varsity M. Playing for the first time on the varsity, he manifested a high type of fight. In the approaching season, the Choctaw linesmen are expecting great things from him. Wayne Alliston, Center Alliston’s loyalty to the Choctaws is certainly un- doubted. His support and sacrifice for the team made him of great worth. It is with deep reget that the Chocs see him leave. PAGE 91 Choc” warriors get their men . An exciting moment in the Mississippi State Game! i An end run in the Tech game. I le Tribesman FOOTBALL, 1932 The Choctaws faced a hard schedule this year, and the early days of September found the football huskies preparing themselves to make the grade. After a hard train- ing period the Indians met Loyola of the South in a night game on September 23. Loyola supporters witnessed a gigantic struggle between a perfect Loyola machine and a group of Choctaw fighters. Choctaw runners gained more yardage than the New Orleans backs, but they couldn’t gain the desired punch to score a victory. Loyola finally conquered by the score of 6 to O. October 1 found the Choctaws running wild over a much weaker team from Louisiana College. Cross, Ming, and Hitt functioned in a well-running backfield. Travis, Reno, and Lackey formed a senior line trium- virate which the Wildcats could not overcome. The following week a determined State squad trampled the Clinton Clan by 18 to 7. A redskin backfield of cripples could offer no offense except a passing attack. The Maroon victory was sweet to State after two years of defeat, but it was gall to the Choctaws. The Mississippi College team played Birmingham Southern in a State Fair game on October 15. The Choctaws fought desperately on a slippery field to make a win certain. Breaks and the condition of the rain-beaten field gave the Panthers a victory. A game scheduled with Spring Hill on October 22 was called off because of the injuries among the Spring Hill outfit. At Chattanooga the Clinton Gridmen started on a comeback campaign, beginning with a surprise victory over the Moccasins of the Uni- versity of Chattanooga. Punching out scores in the second and third quarters, Mis- sissippi College upset the Moccasins, Dixie Conference leaders, by a 13 to 6 score be- fore a large crowd. Hitt in the backfield and Reno in the line contributed largely to the victory. However, it was eleven clawing, fighting Braves who came through that day. The Tribe then journeyed north to play an intersectional game with the PAGE 94 T le Tribesman MANAGERS FOOTBALL, 1932 unbeaten Colgate Red Raiders of the Shenango Valley. N. B. C. Broadcast revealed that the southern squad performed valiantly in a defeat of 32 to O. On November 12 a home-coming crowd watched the Choctaws trounce a Louisiana Tech team 20 to 7. The Choctaws were clearly the superior team, outgaining the Louisianians three yards to one at straight football, and excelling with use of the forward pass, supposed to be the Tech big offensive weapon. A time-honored tradition that Millsaps cannot beat Mississippi College on Thanksgiving was given added prestige when the Choctaws turned back their rivals in a thrilling game by the score of 7 to 6. A dazzling 54-yard run by Hitt in the first few minutes to play and a placement kick constituted the Choc- taw victory. Outgaining the Tribesmen the rest of the game, the Militants found a Choctaw line effectively barring their path to the goal line. As the Indian told the Major: “It just can’t be did.” The Choctaws lose through graduation: Captain Lackey, Reno, Swcatt, H. Stow- ers, L. Stowers, Saflev, Travis, Slay, Alliston, Campbell, and Allen.

This defeat was the worst administered to the freshmen in the entire season. On a Louisiana invasion the baby Chocs broke their losing streak by winning a hard game with Louisiana Tech freshmen by the score of 7 to o.

I. A. A. and all-Dixie guard this season. Exhibiting steady floorwork, a fast drib- ble, a good shot, and a quick backup, Otto proved to be one of the best guards in the state. Reno could always be counted on to put up a hard fight. He will be greatly missed next year. PAGE 100 l Melvin Landrum, Guard Melvin proved to the doubting Thomas’s just what a married man can do. The same flashy passwork, quick floorwork, and long-distance shots that distinguished him last year made him one of the outstanding guards in the S. I. A. A. Melvin’s close guarding accounted for many of our opponents’ close scores. THE PLAYERS Frank Simpson, Forward Simpson, a Junior, closed the season in a whirlwind finish. The early season games found “Dub” on the sidelines, but as the season advanced, the little man got a chance. “Dub” has a sure eye for the basket, and his pass- ing is accurate. He improved his outstanding weakness, his floorwork, dur- ing the latter games of the season. James Lee, Forward James Rainey Lee, a Sophomore find, was the second high scorer of the team. Rainey exhibited the fastest floorwork and passwork on the team. Starting slowly at the first of the season, Lee developed into a surer shot, and it is expected that the next basketball season will see the lad from Ludlow amassing a much higher season score. Hollis Kelly, Center and Forward Hot Kelly, last year’s Freshman sensation, was kept back this season by injuries. Late in the season he whipped into partial form, and at times he even got “Hot” as of last year. He played at center, his position on the Freshman team, and oftener served as the running mate to Lee. “Hot” has wonderful possibilities, and we expect to see him really get “Hot” next year. James Allen Guard “Stute,” handicapped by lack of weight, more than made up for it by his quick- ness and spirit. Allen, a vet- eran guard, was one of the closest guards on the floor, and his work was very ef- ficient in tight spots. The team will lose the hard fight- ing guard this year. Bruce Hitt, Center “Dodger” climaxed a good year in football with a good basketball season. Playing his first year of varsity ball, Hitt put his lanky frame to good use and handled the ball very efficiently. His floorwork improved materially throughout the season, and we are looking forward to a bigger and better basketball center. Harold Jackson, Center “Stonewall,” in his second year of varsity ball, presented a steady, reliable type of playing. Dividing time with Hitt at center, Jackson sank some pretty goals when he was in the game. Secure passing and reliable shooting marks Jackson for one more successful season. PAGE 101 le Tri besman RESULTS OF THE SEASON The Choctaw basketeers entered a hard schedule of games upholding the standard of S. I. A. A. champions. Although they did not retain the championship, the Indians played their games in a fashion that befitted the S. I. A. A. leaders. The regular season this year was marked by defeats administered to their strongest opponents: Mis- sissippi State, runner-up in the Southern Conference, whose team was defeated three times out of four, and the Millsaps Majors, Dixie Conference Champions, who were defeated also three times out of four by the Choctaws. In tournament play, the Mis- sissippians did not fare so well, apparently reaching a low ebb at crucial moments and being eliminated in the first round of the Dixie and S. I. A. A. battles. In spite of this, however, the Chocs marched through a very successful season, winning several much coveted victories, especially from the Majors and Aggies. The leading scorer for the Choctaws this season was Bruce Hitt, who scored 120 points excluding tournaments. James “Rainey” Lee was second with 118 points, closely followed by Captain Tobe Reno with 115 points. Kelly, Landrum, and Simp- son followed next. Kelly scored 82 points, Landrum 83 points, and Simpson 62 points. Allen chalked up 20 markers, Myers 9, and McPhearson and Haley 14 points each. The Indians administered a defeat to Louisiana College in the initial game of the season. Journeying to Mississippi State the next week, the Choctaws split a two-game series. A strong Murray State Teacher’s team led by Bagwell, S. I. A. A. forward, handed the Mississippi team a walloping before a home crowd. A two-game series with Millsaps gave Millsaps one win and Mississippi one in close finishes. A short road trip into Tennessee brought misery to the Redskin team. They lost two games to Southwestern and one to Western Tennessee Teachers. The Celtics, World Champion Professionals, defeated the Choctaws in a very interesting game at Jack- son. The two final games of the series with Mississippi State found the team clicking in good fashion to win both games. Next week the Choctaws continued their winning streak by conquering the Louisiana Normal Demons. The picturesque Mexican foes fell before the onslaught of the Indian basketeers. The Choctaws fell in the first round of the Dixie tournament play. Later a rejuvenated team defeated State Teach- ers two games by huge scores and Millsaps, Dixie Conference Champions, two games by close scores. The Choctaws lost to Centenary in the early stages of the S. I. A. A. tournament. Coach Wilson expects to have an exceedingly strong team next year, losing only two men from the entire cage squad. Although there are numerous capable reserves, it is useless to count on finding a man to take Captain Reno’s place. Reno has been selected for all-S. I. A. A. for two years and all-Dixie for one year. “Stute” Allen, only other senior on the team, will be missed considerably next season as running mate to Reno at guard. With the flashy forwards, Lee, Kelly, and Simpson, and with Hitt and Jackson, Junior pivot men, Landrum, guard, and Haley, Farrell, McPhearson, and Pittman from reserves, things look exceedingly bright for the coming season. PAGE 102 BASEBALL PAGE 103 The Tribesman The baseball team started out in the winter month of February in an effort to whip the material into condition. Stowers and Allgood, veteran catchers, busied them- selves into getting Gill, Bigham, and Wilkins in good pitching form. Other candi- dates reported and soon got in condition. The season might well be called a jinxed season as far as the Choctaws were con- cerned. Cross, sophomore and prospective infielder, cut his arm so badly that he was kept out the entire season. The black cat crossed the Tribesmen’s path again, and Hess Dennis, flashy varsity shortstop, received a severe ankle injury. Accidentally, “Lefthand” Jones suffered a leg injury from sliding. This prevented him from play- ing for several weeks and later seemed to handicap his speed. Several other minor in- juries of different players strengthened the belief among the Choctaw rooters that the wrong sign was on the Indian nine. Owing to the extensive injuries suffered by the infielders, it was necessary to shift the players constantly. Longmire, pitcher, was shifted to shortstop. Several men were used on second — Davis, Van Devender, and Bigham. Such a shifting necessarily kept the infield from being as stable as it would have been otherwise. ( Continued on Page 10J) PAGE 104 H The Tri Desman ) 1 THE PLAYERS James Luter, Captain “Forky” finished his last year of baseball on the varsity in good style. A heavy slugger and a heady outfielder, Luter led the team as a true captain. The outfielders of next year will greatly miss the ever reliable “Forky-Fingers.” George Gill, Pitcher “Monroe” showed a fine brand of baseball in his last sea- son at Miss. College. His work on the mound was ex- cellent, and he could also be depended on as a very efficient pinch hitter. George showed the control and speed of a veteran. Clinton Jones, Infield “Left Hand,” handicapped by an injury early in the season, came through to exhibit the same brilliant speed which has marked his baseball career at Miss. College. His heavy hitting and big league fielding aided the team greatly. The first base bag was held down by the lanky, left- handed Jones. Virgil Bigham, Pitcher Bigham, a Senior, had his best year in baseball. Already a letter man, Virgil worked hard. His control and head work established him as a mound artist to be feared by his opponents. A steady, reliable player, Virgil will be greatly missed in the coming season. John Allgood, Catcher Allgood, a Senior, did not see regular service behind the mask, but he turned in some very efficient work when called upon. One of the surest catchers ever seen, John will be missed greatly. John Allgood Catcher PAGE 105 H i The Tribesman THE PLAYERS Bruce Hitt, Infield Hitt, the blond football threat, turned his athletic ability to good account at third base. When “Dodger” opened up his long distance guns, the ball was bound to rise. It is expected that his ready fielding and hitting will come in handy next year. Bob Davis, Infield Davis spent his first year on the baseball team shifting between second base and the outfield. He proved an ef- ficient player in either place and earned a varsity position. Davis, a natural baseball fielder, is back for two more years of varsity competition. Jack Wilkins, Pitcher “Dang-dang,” left-handed twirler, caused baseball fans to realize the worth of a southpaw. Wilkins gained a surer control of his ball throughout the season. He promises to shine as a curve-ball artist this next season. Ernest Longmire, Infield “Gander” changed from his position as pitcher and be- came a shortstop after the disablement of Dennis, speedy little infielder. Gander’s fielding and ground covering qualities were given ample play in the shortstop position. Hobart Stowers, Catcher “Cabbabe” saw a full service behind the plate this season. His strong arm and good baseball sense kept many op- ponent runners perched safely on the bases. Stowers ren- dered the nine substantial help by his consistent catching and all-round playing. « « i i Hobart Stowers Catcher PAGE 106 T ne Tri. besman ON THE DIAMOND (Continued from Page 104) On March 26 the first game of the season was played with the Jackson Senators. The Choctaws lost by the score of 6 to 4. Two games with Mississippi State followed. The Choctaws lost the first game 4 to 3 and won the second 2 to 1. The following week the Choctaws split a double header with Louisiana Tech. The next week, upon invading Mississippi State, the Indian club lost two games. Journeying on to Alabama, the Choctaws lost to Birmingham-Southern. An invasion into Louisiana netted the Mississippi team one win and one loss. Millsaps, traditional rivals, defeated the Indians four times by close scores. On the home field the Choctaws came through with a double victory over Birming- ham-Southern. Seventeen games were played. The Choctaws won five and lost twelve. Throughout the season Captain Luter was a consistent batter and a reliable fielder. Jones and Hitt also counted for several hits made by Choctaw players. Taylor kept up a consistent game in centerfield and a good record at the bat. Gill and Bigham secured the pitching laurels. Wilkins, southpaw, turned in some neat performances. The Choctaws lose through graduation: Luter, Gill, Bigham, Long- mire, Taylor, and Allgood.

The pre-season dope proved a reality when the Papooses developed a heavy slugging, fast-fielding, quick-thinking ball club. Seventeen games were played. The Papooses won twelve and lost five. The varsity expects to be strengthened by the ad- dition of such men as Priester, Kaiser, Morehead, Putnam, Hunt, Davis, Lee, Me Dade, Drury, Craft, and May. M. C. Freshmen 4 M. C. Freshmen io M. C.

Weakened by the loss of Puckett, White , Miller, and other stars of the year before, the Choctaw cindermen entered a hard schedule with mostly untrained runners. The first meet of the season found the Indians pitted against Louisiana Tech. The opponents piled up a huge score against the Mississippians in an overwhelming defeat. Ringold, first-year man, secured a varsity berth by break- ing the tape as winner in the mile. Wilcher proved his ability by a first in high jump. Captain Fortenberry won second in the two-mile. Marshall got second in the pole vault, and Jones scored in the weights. Again the track team journeyed to Louisiana and met Louisiana College. The Choctaws suffered hard luck that day, losing the meet by a few points . The Mississippians made a clean sweep of the distance and middle distances. Simmons won the 440; Landrum, the 880; Ringold, the mile; Fortenberry, the two-mile. Marshall got a first in PAGE 110 CINDER PATH pole vault. Reno and Jones scored in the weights. The relay team composed of Simmons , Jackson , Harris , and Butler defeated the Louisiana Quartet in an exciting race. In the next meet the Choctaws engaged the best track team in the State , Mississippi State. State ran the Choc- taws ragged. Marshall exhibited good style to score in the vault. Ringold and Fortenberry , Landrum , Jones , and Reno placed. In the final meet of the season the Indians were edged out of victory by their traditional rivals , Mill saps. In the distance , Mississippi College counted one, two, three. But- ler won the 880 ; Ringold, the mile; and Montague, the two- mile. Hewlett, veteran hurdler, came through in a flying finish to win a first place. Fortenberry, Landrum, Mac- Donald, Wilcher, Jones, Reno, and Simmons also made points. The team decided not to go to either the district or S. I . Reno A. A. meet. The Millsaps encounter closed a rather un- Simmons successful season, but the tracksters felt rather encouraged Gill by their development. Losing only Fortenberry and Dunn - Fortenberry away, the team feels confident of increased success in the Hewlett future. PAGE 1 1 1 CROSS COUNTRY The Cross-Country Team enjoyed a successful season. Led by Captain Ringold, the harriers proved very efficient in training themselves. Ringold, varsity trackster, again proved a real strength in his second year of Cross Country. Van Owen James, hitherto handicapped by injuries and tough breaks, came through this fall in fine style. Monroe Reeves, numeral miler, exhibited good stamina, fast sprint, and fine form. Cox, a newcomer in track circles, gave promise of being a good distance man. Hewlett, Spring hurdler, tried his mettle in the distance run. Wells, Mangum, and Nelson gained valuable experience for Spring track. Early in the Fall a dual meet was held with the University of Alabama. The Choctaw runners fell before the superior trained Alabamians. Ringold, Hewlett, Cox, James, Wells, and Reeves made the trip to Alabama. Undismayed by the defeat, the Cross-Country men returned to begin more extensive training. The Choctaw team entered the State A. A. U. at Jackson. With only one old man in the race — Ringold, who was second last year — the Mississippi thin-clads edged Millsaps out for the first-place trophy. White, former Choctaw ace, defeated Ringold in a fast finish. Reeves, third, turned in a good performance. Cox and Van Owen James found the speed to complete the Choctaw winning team. The wet day and damp pavement was bad on the time, but a rather fast race was had. The Choctaw harriers are proud of their cross-country record and expect to hold it up in Spring track. Rupert Rixgold, Captain PAGE 112 4 S 5v v The Tribesman 1933 TENNIS For many years tennis has enjoyed a wide popularity and success at Mississippi College. Carried forward under careful supervision, the sport has swept forward by leaps and bounds, receiving the popular support of a large portion of the student body. Through the hearty cooperation of Coach Robinson, the 1932 tennis squad was given one of the best road trips ever enjoyed by an athletic team. This trip included in its itinerary: Van- derbilt, Chattanooga, Birmingham Southern, Howard, and Mississippi State. Though the season was not one of the most successful in the winning of games, the netmen, led by their efficient captain, David Ford, afforded their opponents some keen competition and exhibited a high type of sportsmanship. Early in March, 1933, the candidates for the ’33 team reported for instruction and practice. The men composing the squad are Chastain Green, Captain; W. R. Priester, Charles Patterson, Crawford Dennis, Leo Green, “Son” Fuller, Willis Puckett, J. G. Byrd, Wilbur Cole, Roland McPhearson, and Clarence Morris. An even more attractive trip has been arranged for this year, an eleven day trip, in- cluding Memphis, Nashville, Louisville, Chattanooga, Birm- ingham, and Tuscaloosa. A hard schedule of games on home courts faces the racqueteers: Vicksburg “Y,” University of Alabama, and Southwestern Memphis. The captain of the 1933 team is Chastain Green, not only an excellent tennis player, but also a good student. With a group of fast netmen on the court and with an efficient cap- tain at the helm, the team will doubtless march through to a successful and victorious season. Chastain Green, Captain PAGE 113 « ISSISSIPPI had by no means escaped the dire- ful effects of the Civil IjOar. c fKard days of re- construction and reorganization nec- essarily followed.

WHO ' S PAGE 132 r ' -YTR.UTH V ' l I AND lo WIRTUEy i PAGE 133 CLINTON, THE flTHE N The venerable monuments of the past and localities connected with which great events transpired are invested with irresistible attraction. When Cicero visited Athens, he wrote of it, as the arena of the noblest strife of the noblest heroes and the battle- ground of her mightiest orators.” No man today can lay claim to a liberal education unless he knows something of the reach and sweep of those peaks of poesy and learning raised by the spirit of man in the civilizations of Greece and Rome. They were remarkable for their mental and personal endowment. Fresh and vivid was their use of figurative language. As con- tributors, they have been especially helpful to subsequent people in the use of meta- phoric language. Growing out of this method of comparing values, the Athenian soon learned to emphasize the particular subject in which his town or city laid claim to su- periority. History tells us that Cecrops, an Egyptian, arrived in Attica with a colony and founded his city, fortifying a high rock which rose precipitously above the site afterward occupied by the town. He placed his rocky fastness under the protection of an Egyptian goddess, from whose Greek name, Athenae, the city which subsequently rose around the rock was called Athens. No individual or institution can rise higher in personality than the attributes ascribed to the divinity which claims their worship. Thus to Athenae, the patron goddess of the Greeks, was ascribed knowledge of war, of female acts and industries, the protectress of Greek cities, and wisdom, all of which appear in the embodiment of prudent and intel- ligent tactics. Also under her special guardianship were architecture, teaching, and the institutions of learning. Here we find The Sacred Way,” leading to the Acropolis and the Lyceum where Aristotle taught, whose philosophic thought and literary excellence produced the new movement of logic, ethics, rhetoric, and history. Clinton, early to be recognized as the Athens of Mississippi,” first appears in history as Mt. Dexter, — a temporary Indian agency. Later, because it was surrounded by many springs of sparkling water and beautiful for situation,” it was known as Mt. Salus, or mountain of health.” In 1828 the name of the town was changed permanently to Clinton, in honor of George Clinton, Revolutionary Governor of New York, whose love of liberty, civic loyalty, and characteristic bravery have been preserved as a noble her- itage by the citizenship of his namesake. Soon after Mississippi’s adoption into the sisterhood of States, the interest that claimed the most vital attention of her statesmen PAGE 134 ■ OF MISSISSIPPI was the necessity of educational advantages, and, through the ardent advocacy of Gov- ernor Leak, plans were promoted for the establishment of an institution of higher edu- cation. This institution was located at Clinton, and through the vicissitude of neces- sity was to become Mississippi College. This was the first institution of its kind in the state. In a few years Clinton had developed into a commercial and political center, and, while it failed, by one vote, to become the seat of government of the State, it lost none of its prestige as an educational center. At that time, several schools in this community were claiming recognition. With the passing of years, all of these schools have ceased to exist, with the exception of Hillman College, whose history for nearly three quarters of a century has been closely interwoven and parallel with the history of Mississippi College, thus giving to Clinton the appellation of The Athens of Mississippi.” Even in those early years, so well established were the foci of intelligence and edu- cational culture that Governor Foot on an important occasion characterized Jackson as the seat of government, Raymond as the seat of justice, Amsterdam the port of entry, and Clinton the seat of learning.” So to this modern Athens was soon built up a sacred way” on whose Acropolis were developed the lofty ideals enhanced by spiritual values characteristic of the highest qualities of Christian culture and noble statesmanship. In the Greek mind, physical development represented the highest expression of beauty; hence the national games were the medium through which this perfection was attained. In this modern age the highest type of beauty finds its fullest expression in something finer and richer than mere physical development; it is in the deeper harmony of the threefold development of body, mind, and soul. As the lofty ideals, fostered in ancient Athens, awakened and stimulated all Western Europe to the attainment of the highest expression of altruistic life, so this Athens of Mississippi,” through her institutions of learning is sending forth currents of influence which cannot be stopped at their original boundaries, but will broaden and deepen with the lapse of time — DR.
