Copyright 1920 JOHN B. SWIFT Editor-in-Chief ROBERT P. COLMER Business Manager G£x$ WORD In this Reveille we have written faithfully to present to you, as truly as the art of the photographer and engraver and printer can reproduce them, the things that will represent every phase of College life. How- ever, this is the ideal, and we realize that our efforts have fallen short of our expectations. Should it in later years cause a person to recall with pleasure the familiar faces and fond scenes of his College days, we shall consider our efforts as crowned with success. ®!j?

No glowing future ' ere so bright, shall hence becloud his treasured past. Major or Judge, as he is known at A. M. is a spirited product from Panola county. Miss., where he gained the distinction of being a capable farmer lad. His destiny was decided in 1916 when he became a member of Class ' 20 and a student of Civil Engineering. Henry is a man, a friend, and a gentleman. He knows no way of judging a man ' s ability except by individual merits, and he desires to be judged in like manner. His history, academically, is known by his grades, while his athletic record is known by what he has done for A. M. on the Gridiron. Henry was elected Class Secretary of the class of ' 18 and his classmates found him equal to the position. His first year on the varsity was in ' 17 and every year since he has acquired another stripe on his sleeve. The Class of ' 20 predict a successful future for you, and in our prophecy you find our wish. Varsity Football, ' 17, ' 18, ' 19; Sec. Class, 1918; M. Club; Athletic Mgr. for Class. Francis Newbert Adams BACHELOR OF SCIENCE- Okolona, Mississippi. AGRICULTURE Some men icould rather sleep an hour later than wake up and find themselves famous. All great men have peculiarities. This gentleman ' s peculiarity was once a fondness for sleep. A few demerits soon convinced him of the fact that only fools refuse to change their opinions — accordingly his aforesaid fondness for sleeping through the first hour has long since departed. Fannie ' s favorite diversions are: Baseball and Redbooks, while his most absorbing, interesting life seems to be writing novels to her at I. I. C, Fannie has a keen sense of humor, and can enjoy fun to the fullest. It is a well known fact that when he becomes hungry, he will go out foraging and generally returns with Wings like a bird ' s. Here ' s to you Fannie — we as a class wish you success in the profession for which you are well suited. Agricultural Club, Vet.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE- SCIENCE Yazoo City, Miss. Thy wit and thy words are -uncommon bright, But thy head will shine in any light. Jimmie conies from the balmy delta, and he is one whom we all admire and respect. Jimmie appears to be quite reserved, but to all who know him he is a jolly, good, fellow. His chief occupation is visiting Starkville in the afternoon to drink chocolate milks with Little Red Shaw, and dreaming of Ward Belmont. He is sometimes known to be studious, but from the course he is taking one will know he is not afraid of work. His military ambition is very limited for he was never known to make any formation except the call for meals. Jimmie is somewhat of a ladies ' man and seems to have supreme success in all of his love affairs, as he always wears a smile. His hobby is writing Special Delivery Letters to a certain little girl not so far away, and then doing a watchful waiting stunt at the Post Office. Jimmie — we predict a most successful career for you, and the Class wishes much happiness in life. Lee Guards— Left Guide ' 18- ' 19; Y. M. C. A.; Pres. Yazoo County Club; Private Co. E. Braxton Cheatham Batson Wiggins, Miss. BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING in ounce of pluck is north a pound of luck. B. C. hails from the piney woods of Stone County. Being desirous to acquire knowl- edge he hastened to join us at an early age. B. C. is not a showy, flashy, sort of fellow, but he is like the tortoise, he gets there just the same. He is a hard worker, a good student, a true friend, and a jolly good fellow. Although not a frequen t visitor at I. I. C, because of hard study which the mastering of his chosen pro- fession demands, one little blue-eyed girl of South Mississippi took her place in his heart when he was least expecting it and we hope that Cupid will stay on the job until he completes his task. All who know B. C. can predict nothing but success and happiness in the future, and their best wishes and affections will follow him wherever he goes. M. A. S.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE With a face that forever greets one ivith a smile. Peanut entered A. M. as a prep in the same year that Kaiser Rill started for Paris. The Hun would have reached his objective on time if Peanut had not enlisted to carry the hoys across, and it was due to this delay that Peanut did not receive his Pigskin in ' 19. Peanut has always been a hearty supporter of the team. He had plenty of pep until after the Thanksgiving game. After that Peanut was silent because money talks and Peanut was broke. As a story teller he knows no equal, being able to hold a bunch spellbound by his tales, real and imaginary. Peanut wants the world to know that he is against Military, having never met any formations, except for meals, and also that he never intends to search for the rib that Adam lost in the Garden of Eden.

BACHELOR OF SC1ENCE- Gloster, Miss. -AGRICULTURE Care to our coffin adds a nail, no doubt. And every grin so merrily draws it out. Kaiser Bill ' s big forces over the pond prevented Berryhill finishing with the class of ' 19, however, after a session in the Navy, D. L. returned to his Alma Mater and will secure his Dip with us in June. Truly we are glad to have a man of bis character and caliber with us, for excepting no one, he is one of the most amiable and jocund fellows in the class. His unaffected disposition and pleasing personality have made him a man of few enemies and a multitude of friends. Early in his College career D. L. made the error of taking pedagogy, but after his first year this mistake was corrected and he is now a boni ride student of Agriculture. Pres. Amite County Club ; Y. M. C. A. ; Class Football.

But this fool poet made me groan; This poet never lii ' ed beside A man who played a slide trombone. It is preordained that Ned will never be successful. For the successful man ' tis said, cannot help making enemies, and there is no one who can keep from loving Ned. To enumerate his good traits would involve too much space. He would rather go on a mandolin serenade than, to acquire book learning, and prefers his trombone to a rifle. Ned always hares his head when speaking of Arkansas, and his one ambition in life is to possess a tumble down shack and a strip of land in the country God forgot. Lee Guards; ' 17- ' 20 Vice Pres.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE Wii Mi Some reople grow under responsibilities, others merely swell. Regardless of the fact that Bill hails from the heart of Montgomery County, in other words Winona, Miss., we consider him one of the best members of the Class. He came to us in the fall of ' 16 as a very shy and awkward Freshman. Since then, however, be has proven himself fully capable of handling all problems confronting him both in bis classwork and on the athletic field. In the latter he has shown un- usual capabilities, being chosen for Captain-elect of the football team, for the coming season. Bill ' s steady work and pleasing personality won him many friends both among the students and faculty. The best wishes of the class of ' 20 go with you, Bill, wherever you go.

And Venus acts ere Mercury can arise. Little did we think four years ago that the black-eyed, square-jawed. Freshman from Prentic County, would today be at the height he is. — but Mutt has never let this turn his head. Even though the Freshmen class may stand in awe of him, he is regarded by all as square and impartial in everything that he does. Mutt has many commendable characteristics, but, the chief ones are: his bull dog tenacity, and his absolute honesty and fairness. He wants to be square in the classroom, on exams., on the football field, and everywhere else. With all of these good traits, Mutt has one weakness: he seems impervious to cupid ' s darts, having the distinction of being one of the few Seniors who has not visited doubt-Eye-See, during his whole college career; however, we understand that of late, a certain factor (on the Campus) is changing this. We, the Class of ' 20, wish Mutt to attain the same pinacle of success in Electrical Engineering that he has attained in his college career.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE The secret of success is work, but who ivants to know the secret? John arrived on the campus from the Free State of Jones in the fall of ' 16 and entered the mysterious realm of the Sophomore Class. He is good natured, a most congenial companion when with the boys, and from the number of three pound epistles winding their way to and from Northern Louisiana, he must be very intimate with the female sex. In the spring of ' 18, John, as most of his classmates did, entered the service. He selected the navy and entered the Radio work. After being absent for more than two years he returned to finish his course with the Class of ' 20. Although kept constantly busy, he has always had time to make friends and these with the Class of ' 20, wish you much success, John, in all your undertakings. Sec. Jones County Club; Y. M. C. A.; Navy Club; Private Co. I. Page Thirty Henry Sherrill Cassel Hammond, Louisiana. BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE To know hint is to like him, have I not said enough? Sherrill, better known as Cas, came to us in the fall of ' 17. His keen sense of humor and ready wit have won for him many friends, and his sincerity has enabled him to retain them. Like the most of us Cas heard the call of his country and responded. After going through the Officers Training School at Camp Taylor he emerged with a pair of gold bars and shining puttees. After he had done his part in winning the war he immediately came back to resume his college work. In the fall of ' 19 he made his place on the Varsity football squad and was one of the big factors that helped make the enviable record that goes down in the hall of fame, for football teams. The entire class of ' 20 wish you well, Cas, and may the spirit of the Bull- dogs be with you forever. Class Basketball ' 17; Class Football ' 18, ' 19; Varsity Football ' 20; M.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE Rare compound of oddity, frolie, and fun. Who relishes a joke and rejoices in a pun. Tommie came out from town with the determination to make a record while getting his degree in Agriculture. The four years that Tommie has been with us have been a pleasure to the entire class and when he goes out in the world the wishes of the entire Class of ' 20 go with him. If the subject of this sketch ever was angry it was never made public, even while at Camp Taylor the life of the Company was Tommie with his ready laugh and quick wit. The Freshmen of Co. D are a bit wary of Capt. Chiles but the bluff will soon be over. A good student, a loyal friend, and a good sport, what more can be said of a man? Capt. Co. D ; Oktibbeeha County Club ; Pres.

Maxwell Thomas Crow .... BACHELOR OF SCIENCE- Starkville, Miss. -AGRICULTURE His character of which we boast makes his remembrance dear. Maxwell is one of these quiet, reserved men who talk little but do lots. He is a studious, diligent character and stands well with all those that know him. Although he does not make a practice of heart-breaking he seems to have ONE who is quite willing to be Sweet Mamma as soon as he receives his credentials from, A. M. He seems very quiet in the section room but on the outside you can count on a real good sport looking for a good time. Duty comes in his mind before pleasure, and with this motto there is no possible chance for him to fail. Here ' s to you Old Boy, May you live as long as you want to. and have as much as you want as long as you live. Manager Town Preps Athletics ; Agricultural Club ; Private Senior.

Bernard — better known to most of his classmates and students at A. M. as Dago — the name given him when he first entered direct from Louisiana. Dago is a hard worker, industrious, and ever ready for the test. His spirit of ever-readiness has won for him the respect of the faculty and the admiration of his classmates. As a student, he is one of A. M. ' s greatest assets, for, he has been an important factor and has taken an active part in the promotion of every activity, especially athletics. He can be both serious and jolly, and it is no common thing to find him pulling some of the deepest stuff yet known to A. M. students. The entire student body is proud of him, espe- cially the members of Class ' 20 and we are proud to send him out to the world. Pres. Senior Class; Class Poet ' 18- ' 19; Pres.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE He loves to study the light that lies in woman ' s eyes. And lies, and lies, and lies. The balmy breezes of the Gulf blew into our midst, in the fall of ' IB, a man destined to become a powerful factor in college activities during his four years at this insti- tution. The subject of this sketch is a man of exceptional ability, good judgment, and pleasing disposition. Upon graduation. Wop leaves us well ecpupped for any position that commands integrity, courage, and convictions of good faith. Besides his ability Wop has made a host of friends among the faculty and students, and we are sure they will feel his loss when he leaves his Alma Mater. The sincere respect of the students, the best wishes of the class, and the kind remembrance of the faculty will be with you always. Pres. Gulf Coast Counties Club ; Pres. Student Association ; Pres.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE Be swift to hear, hut slow to speak, For some day, someichere, our words, we shall meet. Among the boys from Monroe County who entered A. M. in the fall of ' 16 was Roland Cowart of Greenwood Springs. This was not Rowland ' s first experience in college life, having graduated from the Normal College in 1915. When Uncle Sam was in need of a good Kitchen Mechanic for his air service he found Roland the man for the place. Upon receiving his discharge this amhitious young lad returned to College bent on finishing his course. Roland ' s sincerity and perseverance will win for him in the future many friends, and as much success as he had in college life. Philotechnic Literary Society; Monroe County Club; Vet.

The Class of ' 18, would have claimed this subject, but the call for real men had been sounded and he was among the first to answer the call. Leon ' s greatest ambition Is to be a philosopher, his purpose a Professor, his thoughts are always I. I. C, and his faults, he has none. This man of exceptional ability has chosen high ideals for life and we tire sure that with his tenacity and good judgment he will make good any- where under any conditions.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE Love intoxicates a man. Marriage wakes Mm up. The above is the likeness of one of Forest County ' s most promising young men, who is one of the best men in the class. This is very well evidenced by the fact that he has completed the four year course in three years. With his good judgment, and pleas- ing personality, we are sure the future holds a great deal in, store for him. For the benefit of those who did not have the pleasure of attending summer school, it might be well to mention that Doc was all but kidnapped by one of the attractive Nor- malites. Although he has always been ambitious to attain the highest mark in his academic work, he has so far escaped the ravages of Military Fever. The Class of ' 20 extends to him their most sincere wishes for a prosperous life. Veterinary Science Club ; Dialectic Literary Society ; Masonic Club ; Treas. Forest County Club; Private Co. G. James Woodward Criss ........ Derma, Miss. BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— CHEMISTRY In stature small. Hut just the same man to all. Peewee. as he is generally known, breezed in here from the wilds of Calhoun County in the fall of ' 16, and lias been a faithful member of the Class ever since. He chose Chemistry as his profession and has hibernated in the Chemistry Lab. ever since chasing the elusive molecule under the guiding hand of Dr. Hand. Criss is of the quiet type and is a fair example of the proverb, Still water runs deep. He has never had any ambitions along military lines and the present rank of private Senior is entirely to his liking. His great ambition is to discover something new in color schemes — to obtain a beautiful red from a mixture of pink sheets and hot air. We are confident that Criss will succeed in all his undertakings. Town Preps; Calhoun County Club; Private Senior. Page Thirty-five Hugh Melville Critiz . BACHELOR OF Russelville, Ark. SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE I am as free from money as a turtle is feathers. Critidae came to us in the fall of ' 15 and served one year as Prep. but at that time he had the right stuff in him for lie has been close to the top of his class every year and promises to do better this year than ever before. Critidae is one of the best known men on the campus and has a pleasant smile for every one that he meets. He held down the Hot Corner for the baseball team in ' 19 and there were none better in the S. I. A. A. The entire class wish him unlimited success in the field that he chooses to show his talents.

Rusty hails from the northern hills of the state and has been with the Class all the way through. As a student he has proven his proficiency throughout, from geometry through strength of materials, and never once has he tasted defeat. When it comes to working calcalus or delving in electrical experiments, lie ' s a shark. He has worked hard, and stuck by the Old Class of ' 20, and made an unbelievable record. He always has a smile and is a friend always willing to help anyone out of a tight. His military aspirations have never been to be classed above a Senior Private ; but, for directing Freshmen into the right path he ' s a genius. The Senior Class predicts a bright future for you Rusty and wishes you every success. Vice-President Tate-DeSoto County Club ; Philotechnic Literary Society, Elec- trician ; Y. M. C. A.; M. A. S.

B., or better known as Preacher, drifted in with the very Fresh Freshmen of 1916. He was no exception, but a Freshman of the rarest type. Through careful training and persistent efforts on his part he comes from the halls of the University as a man of exceptional ability. His greatest difficulty seems to be in solving the problem of where he shall make life ' s headquarters, and whether he will be alone or have an assistant. Judging from the frequent trips to Columbus it seems to be almost certain that there will be a second in command at his headquarters. This serious, ener- getic young man has as his ambition to eradicate the Bool Weevil so he can settle down and watch the cotton blossom, the corn tassel, the ducks, chickens, N every- thing, grow. The best wishes of the Class go witli you through your life ' s work, and we hope we can say you will be as successful there as you were in College. Y. M. C.

AGRICULTURE All great men are dying and I feel sick myself. Red comes to us from Macon, Miss. The most conspicuous feature of his freshman year was the source of his nickname ; namely his hair. However, since his entrance into our class he has more than proven his worth as a student and a loyal friend to his classmates. Red is a serious minded fellow who believes in giving everybody a square deal. Because he is so easily teased someone is constantly finding some joke to play on him. He consistently denies the existence of Cupid ' s Arrow in his heart, but from his frequent trips to Macon we have reason to doubt his veracity on this subject. The class of ' 20 wishes you success, Red, in all your undertakings. Noxubee County Club; Dairy Club; Officers ' Club; 1st Lieut. Co. D. Page Thirty-seven William Clark Downer .

C. had cleaned up everything that his native state had to offer in the way of elementary education he showed good judgment by coming to Mississippi to round out his store of knowledge. He settled down with the rest of us here in the fall of ' 16 and went straight to work, finishing easily his chosen course without having a failure marked up against him. W. C. has always had time to give his best to every- thing that is vital to College life. He has made a host of friends and is universally liked by the entire Student Body. South America will claim his attention for a few years, after which he proposes to return to his native country and the dear one he left behind. May the Spirit of ' 20 be with you always, and the Class joins in wishing you the best of luck in your life ' s vocation. Character Builders ' Sunday School Class ; Business Club ; Co.

George escaped a life sentence in Scott to serve a (?) year term at A. M., and by his untiring efforts has well earned the pardon, or rather the Dip that he will receive in the spring. A man of but few words, he has yet made himself felt in all lines of college activity, and his leaving will make a vacancy hard to fi ll. Entomology seems his hobby, and if he is as successful along this line in after life as he has been along all others while at A. M., we feel sorry for the Omnitidae of these United States. In parting we wish him no better luck than the hope that he will be as successful in life as he has been at A. M. Page Thirty-eight John Featherston Eckford BACHELOR OF Starkville, Miss. SCIENCE— CHEMISTRY Learned, is he that studieth, Hut o ' ertaxeth not his endurance. Jim Feddie is one of the all round good students in school.

Through being handicapped by being in the Navy during the war he was unable to finish with his original class, he came and cast his lot with class ' 20 and we are proud to own him. Jim admits, that the ladies do not worry him, but those that know him will vouch for the fact that he is always on hand when they are around. Only few men have been blessed with possibilities as his.

He has not only an excellent academic record, but the admiration and respect of all that know him. Bacteriology is his favorite study. Nothing less fas- cinating than this science could have lured H. E. from the field of Pedagogy. His pet ambition is to free the South from its dreadful diseases. With his unusual stead- iness of purpose and ability we feel that he will become a valuable asset to the scientific world.

Out of justice to him, however, it must be said that he would have grad- uated in 1918 if the war had not come on, an unavoidable if, so he is still here. Ralph had two reasons for coming to A. M. First he had an idea that he could play a clarinet and since his arrival he has wielded a wicked goosestick as solo clarinetist in the band. He also thought he wanted to take an engineering course and not freeze to death doing it. To his many friends here at A. M. and I. I. C. he is known as The Elderly Gentleman and Harmony.

After finishing his Sophomore year he thought it best to try himself out in his chosen profession of school teaching. Only the first term of his Junior year was finished in 1917, when he answered the call of his country putting on the blue jacket for about fifteen months. Soon after receiving his discharge he returned to A. M. to finish his college course. His record as a student shows that he is a firm believer in work before play. His greatest pleasure is obtained while reclining in his rocker, a cigar in his mouth, feet crossed on the table, diligently searching for current events in The Weekly Lexington Advertiser, which always reaches him a week late.

He was the Captain of D company but was relieved and appointed Godfather instead because of not being able to attend the summer camp at Camp Taylor. When Bill leaves this part of the state and goes to south Mississippi where men grow tall and all women are beautiful, he will leave behind a host of friends in the college and surrounding country.

We don ' t know where Mongan City is, but if R. C. is a sample of what it turns out we would like to live there. Rather quiet and reticent he has yet made himself felt as few of us have succeeded in doing, and has accomplished many things that he has not been given credit for. Possessing unlimited Class and College spirit, he has done much to keep clean the fair name of A. M. and of Class ' 20, and if for no other reason is worthy of the respect and best wishes of the class. His generous disposition, a smile and a pleasant word of greeting for everyone, have made him a host of friends at A. M, and assure his success in after life.

And the man that getteth understanding. Bob came to the A. M. in 1914 a prep. His good nature and generous heart have won for him the warmest regard from his professors and fellow students. Prescott was the originator of the Prescott-Hollinsworth punch. The demonstration of this punch caused a beautiful blue-black to appear in Booney ' s ocular regions. His graduation was delayed by his service in the army. A. M. has turned out no man that is a truer friend of his classmates and fellow students. Member of Dialectic Literary Society ; Vet.

G., or Bill, is another specimen from Hinds County. He has firmly established himself with his many friends at A. M. by his earnest efforts, sincerity, and jovial nature. He is a Senior member of the Bill and Rockytaw Combine, incorporated in 1918, and chartered forever. He is no book fiend, but when he studies, he studies in earnest, and when he plays he refuses to be bothered with work. Bill denies any acquaintance with Cupid but those nearest him say that his heart is full of exclamation points. In the whole class, yea, in all the world, a truer, and better friend cannot be found than this noble gentleman who greets us with a smile.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE— AGRICULTURE Happy, thoughtful, kind and true, There is no favor he will not do. To find a man more energetic, more willing, and with more dynamic force than George would indeed be a hard undertaking. He has the distinguished personality of a gentle- man, the brain of a Student, the form of an athlete, and the capacity of an honest friend. George always asserts that if he had been born rich instead of so good looking his chance in the business world would alive been more certain. Although this may be true, we believe that the extent of a man ' s success in life may be determined by his success in College. Judging from this we some day expect to see George noted in the Who ' s Who in America. The sincere wish of the class is happiness and success for you and yours.

With his everlasting smile and sincere respect for everybody, he has won many friends. For social functions he cares little, and military, LESS. This is true only at A. M., however, for as soon as it was learned that he was in line for a commission at a Field Artillery Officers Training School, the war closed immediately. He is a conscientious student and knows well the subjects he has chosen for his Major work. Bob ' s ambition is to have a model farm near Hattiesburg, and we believe if hard work and sticktoittiveness merit success, then he is going to make his mark. The best wishes of his classmates and the spirit of the class will be with you through your life ' s work. George Rifles ; Veterinary Science Club ; Agricultural Club ; Forest County Club; F. A. C.

Willie is another one of the old antebellum men at A. M. Back when the world was young he had rosy dreams of walking- away with a Dip with the Class of ' 18, but the Hun was needing attention about the time the chance for a Dip was the brightest, so Willie became a loyal nephew to Uncle Sam and a sworn enemy to the Kaiser for the two years that followed. Willie has many claims to greatness but is very modest about them all. In fact he is so modest about being made a member of the Sons and Daughters of I Will Rise that be will answer no questions on the subject. He also claims that the charms of the fair sex have absolutely no effect on his heart, but we bid him to remember the axiom that the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Pierre entered school here as a prep and we are indeed glad to have him as a member of class ' 20. He is a good conscientious student. His quiet way has a wholesome effect on misbehavior especially in the classroom (?). Strict and constant attention to his duties, he is respected by his fellow students, and has made many warm friends during his college career. Judging from his black hair and melancholy midnight eyes one would think he was a musician, but as yet he has only played upon the hearts of Starkville and surrounding district. His chosen profession is instructing young Mississippians (not Military Science, however), and he has the best wishes of the class for a successful future.

Although his old classmates were far away from their old abode, he returned to A. M. in the fall of ' 19 and was very gladly received by the class of ' 20. The record he has made here justifies the entire class in looking to him as a leader. He has a pronounced desire to do his duty to his college, his friends, and his country that it may be called the Invincible. He is an enemy to none, but a true, whole-hearted friend to all.

Though he has been somewhat handicapped by the magnitude of his correspondence he has made good use of the short time left, and stands well in his classes. His military ambitions were realized in his Soph year when he was promoted to the rank of Corporal. Since that time his greatest worry seems to be to keep his name off of the Top ' s reveille roll.

Page Seventy-one Senior Class History HE career of class ' 20 has been an eventful one and full of excitement. Our history as a class has been spanned by four years of honest, patient and pleasant toil. Now that we have reached the pinnacle of our ambitions, let us record the events of our victorious deeds and achievements. We had the record of being the largest freshman class in the history of the college, the total number almost reaching the 600 mark. This large army of freshmen invaded the battlefields of knowledge in September, 1916. After the necessary-preliminaries of matriculation, classification and registra- tion, we began our work in earnest. The upper classmen declared they had never seen as green a bunch of freshmen in all their college career. We may justly say that our first year was a year of preparation, of an experiment with new conditions, of adjustment, and of setting up standards. Although our football team went down in defeat, some excellent material was developed for the Maroon and White. In other college activities our men made splendid records, and though the largest class on record, class unity seemjed to be a great characteristic of our class. In our sophomore year many old faces were missing, but we were molded into a much smoother and superior machine than the one of the previous year. Our loss in numbers was generously repaid by the gain in spirit, zeal and determination. Difficult problems were mastered thoroughly and in the classroom everything fell victims to the deadly attack of the students of the class of ' 20. We furnished our quota of varsity athletes and demonstrated our prowess in baseball by winning the class baseball championship. The third year looked very dark indeed. Our college had been made a post for the S. A. T. C, familiarly known as the Children ' s Crusade. All of the students being in the service practically no college work was done until after Christmas. After Hie tempest of war had been stilled, nearly all the old faces and quite a number of neAv ones were seen on the campus Three months behind in our work, we did not let that discourage us, but with the same old fight, zeal and determination, that characterized class ' 20 in the war, we reorganized and began the struggle for our goal again. Returning in September, 1919 Ave bravely shouldered the responsibility connected with our new duties and adjusted ourselves to the position of Dignified Seniors. Again we gave our hearty and loyal support to every line of college activities. The greatest sorrow of our career in college and one that entered the heart of every member of the class, was the dieath of beloved and esteemed classmate, Lewis P. Shelton. This, the record of class ' 20, is the record of a band of men who have stood for higher motives, co-operative unity, sensitive justice, and a greater A. M. College. Victory has not always been ours. We have suffered defeats, disappointments and reversals more than one, but rising from them, we look down upon them as our greatest victories. Now that the time is drawing near when our college days will be a thing of the past ; we look for the last time on old familiar scenes that have been so dear to us for the past four years ; we leave the companionship of our beloved classmates with pain and sorrow; but we know that though we go our hearts remain with our Alma Mater.

Vage Ninety-four Junior Class History N the balmy autumn of 1917, when the sun swept breezes brought only sounds of the clash in human events, when happiness with harvest had come, there was, in reality, a sowing time, — the beginning of the Class of ' 21. Possessing all the attributes of typical freshmen and yet all the thirst for knowledge for which man is capable, the Class of ' 21 soon gave evidence of possibilities for advancement. Hopes long cherished began to grow, while in the many college activities the Freshmen imprinted their affinity for predominance. Early in the beginning, the class of ' 21 evinced a natural tendency to harmony in thought and action, -- the bond destined to bear them forever forward. In the mid-September of 1918 the Freshmen of the preceding year came back to A. and M. Two weeks later the ranks grew thin, for Uncle Sam had called, and they heard. In full freedom once more, January 1, 1919, the Class of ' 21 entered upon their college career. In every field of athletics, in academ- ic work, in the social and religious events of the college life, wherever the course of act ion, they have shown genuine merit. Life as a Freshmen and success as Sophomores drew out unconscious, unbidden longings for greater opportunities. In September 17 1919, two years from the dawning of the Spirit of ' 21, every free and loyal Junior returned, to continue the pursuit of knowledge, to unravel the stronger threads of his destiny. Discouragements were not infre- quent; but all along the way successes intervened, to entwine and strangle every forlorn hope, to keep the fires of ambition aglow. From the interming- ling of many ideas, and from progress through the transition of time, the Class of ' 21 has grown greater. Still undaunted, still working and waiting, still listful to echoes from the the Future, the Class presses on — inspired by a confidence that knows not defeat. J. R. G. ' 22. Page Ninety-five The Spirit of ' 21 In days of yore a thing so dear, Was reverenced to the last, So that before each loyal Junior. Is the spirit of the class. This spirit, that ever has prevailed, Is in evidence at all time, From the dreadful days of the timid freshman, To those of the present time. The class, our class as it is known, Made good where ' ere it tried, With a combined and loyal effort. It fain did stem the tide. So mote it be, that every man, )f this great site of lore. Shall not digress but ever possess, The ' 21 esprit de corps. Wherever the call of duty may be, At home or in foreign land, If by a man of twenty-one, May the class tradition stand. When the good old class of twenty-one, Is nearing its final goal, Each member will look forward as, If inspired by the vesper toll. ' 21. Page Ninety-six Page ninety-seven mpmmmm 0L« y c Tir yr- -22.

The things that made our existence possible then, make our progress possible to-day. The same incentive that caused the Freshman ' 22 to make a record, today, causes the Sophomore ' 22 to fight to hold that record. The same principles that the few Freshmen formulated on organizing after their plans had been cut into by the S. A. T. C, today make stepping stones to higher ideals of brotherhood to each other and fatherhood to the present Freshmen. We first came here as an aid to our country. The greater part of our present class was in the S. A. T. C. and our record in that capacity is unques- tioned. After the war clouds had passed and the war occupations were replac- ed by peaceful pursuits it was then that a class was formed whose record in every respect will always stand as one of the best in the history of the school. To-day this class is still here. Its parts are still functioning its principles are still true and its hopes are still paramount. Let no man dare to question its being nor to circumscribe its usefulness. You can Avalk out on the ball fields, the greatest advertisement of A M, and you find ' 22 there with more than its share. Go to the track and who are the principal ones there but ' 22 ' s. Examine the class records and you find us there with the goods. Nay, nay, the record of this class can never be told, it is beyond the mental grasp of man- kind. No man should be surprised at any mark of merit that has been made by our class mem(bers. Nor should any man wonder at the pages of history being full of the achievements of our men. History will even be incomplete without them. Just Watch ' Em boys. W. T. C. ' 22.

Page One Hundred Eighteen Page One Hundred Nineteen Page One Hundred Twenty Freshman Class History N Tuesday morning, September the seventeenth, nineteen hundred and nineteen, there were assembled on the campus of the Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College the students who were to com- prise the Freshman Class. We differed much in size and intellect, but we all bore the same mark — Freshman, and we were all of the same color — green. Many of us but a few months before had been dignified seniors in high school. But now as we stood upon the threshold of college life, we trembled. With the same spirit however that our Class has shown throughout this year we began the first year of our college career. We soon learned that zip and spuds were things served in the mess hall. .And after procuring a sufficient amount of bath and radiator tickets from the accommodating upper classmen, we set about the task of learning to sing fluently the Laundry List to the accompaniment of Ye old gun strap and Ye wet sabre belt. As a Class we stand one and all for that which is for our good and for the good of the institution. Our history is written in the roll books of all our Profs and upon the records of the Registrar and the Commandant. We have ardently supported the Y. M. C. A., and as for athletics — well we have our 23 upon the tank. We are all proud of our history and of our class, which we believe is one of the best that has ever trod the campus of our dear old school. ' In the class room we battled fearlessly with all the problems confronting us. The tiresome geometry, and irksome themes all fell alike before our drives. On the drill field we learnd to about face, to squads right, and to carry our rifles without injury to our brothers in ranks. In the dor- mitories we learned readily to seek cover when the Sophomores prowled about. We all long for the day when we have reached the goal which now seems so distant. But when we shall have left our dear Alma Mater and taken our places in the ranks of life, we shall still live on as members of the Class of ' 23. Historian.

HENLEY Page One Hundred Fifty-three Pa 0« Hundred Fifty-four Football Record 19 19 HENLEY Right Guard early dart of Septem- ber was heeded by about seventy fine look- ing ' prospects, among whom were Baby Car- penter, Fletch East. Rillingsley, Weissinger. and Fikes, former vars- ity stars who were in the army the year pre- vious. Robinson, assist- ed by coaches Billy Hayes and Dudy Nobles, former Ole Miss coach and A. M. star, soon weeded out this unweildly ag- gregation to a respect- able size, and then the fun began. The schedule was one of the hardest that A. M. has ever attempted, including games with L. S. U., University of Tennessee, Alabama, and Auburn, beside the usu- al preliminary games. The 1919 foot- ball season at A. M. as well as in other parts of the United States, was one of re- organization. Old stars, returning after years of ser- vice in Sam ' s army, found them- selves replaced by new men, their deeds forgotten, and their names vague memories of other days. Then began a period of readjustment, one of hard training and sacrifice, in which they found themselves, and were again lost in the finished product. —THE TEAM. Coach Robin- son ' s first call for candidates in the CARPENTER Left Tackle BILLINGSLEY Center Auburn saw fit to switch our game to the second to last on their schedule, instead of an opening date as had been the case in previous years, signifying that A. M. has ceased to be an easy mark for any of them. Even with this difficult schedule that we had, the two games that we lost, to Auburn and Alabama, were by close scores. Mud, water, and fum- bles best tell the tale of our affair with Spring Hill college in the open- ing game of our sched- ule. Spring Hill a new comer on our schedule, brought down a fast team, much stronger than an opening date would warrant, and added to tins a muddy field prevented us from Page One Hundred Fifty-five running up any sort of a score. The play was very ragged, and only because it was the first chance to see the varsity in ac- tion was the inter- est maintained. A Spring Hill back recovered a fum- ble on their own five yard line and raced ninety-five yards for their on- ly touchdown, the game ending 12 to 6 in A. M. ' s fa- vor. Bower ' s punt- ing and the work of little Carpen- ter, and Henley were the only re- deeming features of an otherwise poor game. A. M. ' s next victim was Missis- sippi College, the Preachers going spiB -.f Eight Half down in defeat to the tune of 56 to 7. A bril- liant 55 yard run by Clarke, a few second af- ter the game commenced, signalized to the student body that the Bull- dogs had found them- selves after the disap- pointing showing of the week previous. A. M. seemed able to score at will, and as the game progressed this became more apparent, Coach Robinson using substi- tutes almost entirely during the last quarter, but still the score con- tinued to mount. The Aggie backfield show- ed to considerable ad- vantage in this game. The Bulldogs played their best game of the year in the next game, defeating the University of Tennessee 6 to on HOUGH Right Half CLARK Left Half their home grounds. The score fails to show the true superiority of the Aggies, as except for the first quarter the Tennesseeians, who had held Vanderbilt to a 3 to 3 tie the week be- fore on Vandy ' s home grounds, were complete- ly outclassed. Time af- ter time Cassell or one of the other backs would slip around the end, or charge through the line, the Vols seeming power- less to stop them, while Baby Carpen- ter ' s work in the line went far toward win- ning him his All-South- ern honors. The entire A. M. team was on its mettle, even the famed Hatcher being forced to content himself with small gains when not thrown for losses. Page One Hundred Fifty-six Tlie next game with Howard Col- lege was sort of a rest period before the hard games to follow. The team seemed to he suf- fering a reaction as a result of the strenuous game of the previous week, and although we did win by a score of 39 to if was lucky that we were not facing a first class team. The backfiekl lack- ed the drive that characterized its work against Ten- nessee, due prob- ably to the loss of Russell and Weis- singer who were out on account of injuries. L. S. U. came next and they too added to our Rig EAST ht Tad growing string of vic- tories, going down in defeat by ai score of 6 to 0. The game although played on a water soak- ed held was a continued thrill, the tense crowd responding in a manner, rarely, if ever, before seen on an A. M. campus. Each team seemed to be feeling the other out during the first half of the game, neither side scoring, the advantage however be- ing entirely on A. M. ' s side due largely to Bower ' s superior toe work. The Bulldogs showed to more advan- tage in the second half, changing their open style of play of the first half to the good old straight football, the Aggies started a march down the field BOWER Left End that ended in the only touchdown of the game. L. S. U. opened up a bewildering series of p a s s e s that had us scared for a few min- utes, bur the defense rallied and the danger was averted. This was the first time during the year that we were out weighed and the team showed up exceedingly well considering L. S. U. ' s enormous advan- tage. The game was featured by the play of the Aggie backfield, wftile Carpenter and Henley continued their stellar work in the line. A. M. gave their scrubs an outing in the Ole Miss game, every one of the twenty-five men making the trip got into the game. The Bulldogs seemed to Page One Hundred Fifty-seven LITTLE Left Half score after a heart rending game featured by the fiercest play seen on a southern gridiron this year. Many a day ■will pass lief ore the people of Birmingham will forget the battle, and still more will roll by before Auburn will recover from its effect. A fumble on an at- tempted fake kick in the second quarter was re- sponsible for the only score of the day and al- though A. M. tried valiantly and lived Up to every tradition of its history it failed to put across the tying score. Twice we were in the shadow of the enemy ' s goal post only to lose the ball on downs. We were always righting, we out-fought the Tigers, and only the God of have no trouble with their ancient rivals and ran up a score of 34 to ( . The backfleld seemed to have no trouble in gaining through the line or around end, while our line completely showed up their oppo- sition. Ole Miss has gone down so regularly before us that very little at- tention was paid to this feat at A. M. The entire stu- dent body went over in special trains to Birming- ham to see us bow down in defeat for the first time dur- ing the year. Au- burn was turned victor by a 7 to RUSSELL Quarter Full Back WEISSINGER chance gobbed us of vic- tory. The day was a perfect one for football, a clear sky, a hard dry field, and eight thousand spectators added a fit- ting background for the game that followed. Af- ter the first unfortunate score the ball was al- most entirely in Au- burn ' s territory with A. M. as the aggressor. Time after time we were in easy scoring distance only to lose the ball on a fumble. It was indeed a hard game to lose after we had out- played our rivals. Our last game with Alabama was also a set back for A. M. The first half of the game was much like that of the previous week with Auburn. The ball see- sawed up and down the Page One Hundred Fifty-eight KLINDWORTH Quarter Held with neither team possessing any advantage. A. M. depended entire! y upon straight football football during the first half while Alabama used a bewildering set of shifts during the entire game. The first half ended with neither scor- ing, hut Little pulled one of the most brilliant feats seen on a southern gridiran when he received the kickoft at the beginning of the second half and shielded by a per- fect V shaped in- terference, rushed 85 yards for the first touchdown of the game. This seemed to put new- life into Alabama ' s team and they followed with a touchdown soon after. The last score of the game came as a result of a blocked punt, an Alabama player falling on the ball behind our goal line. A. M. made a desperate attempt to tie things up with a number of well executed passes, but Alabama ral- lied and we were f o r c e d to go down in defeat.

Of nine- teen games played, the V a r s i t y won thirteen and lost six. A. Mi won the series from Howard, Mississippi- College, Louisiana State, Vanderbilt and Ole Miss while the series with Georgia- Tech was tied with a game going to each team. The team met defeat twice at the hands of Alabama, who held undis- puted claim to the S. I. A. A. championship of 1919. In the first of these two games A. M. put up a stubborn fight and until the s e v e 11 1 h inning had the game safely in hand, only to blow in that inning, losing out by a 6 to 3 score. In the Ole Miss series the Varsity took revenge for the loss of the ' 18 series. On the trip to the Univers- ity, two, close, hard fought games were divided, while on the return engagement A. M. won bQth ends, thus putting the series on the right side and clinching the State Championship.

In the sixteen played we were victorious in twelve. The opening game of the season was with Chicago Y. on January 5th and our team did remarkably well against the veteran players from Chicago. Both teams were handicapped by the severe weather and playing on an out-door court. The game ended 22-20 in favor of the Y. On January 21st the team journeyed forth on rather an extensive tour, playing four games all with different teams, before they returned home. The first of the series was with Meridian College and resulted in a victory for us to the tune of 48-31, Clayton and Bed Hughes being the individual stars of the game. The second was with Mobile Y on January 22nd and was one of the roughest games of the season. A. M. lead in the first half but lost this advantage when Billy saw fit to remove Red because of the pugilistic tendencies of the spectators. The game ended with a score of 46-28 in favor of Mobile. The next jump was to New Orleans where the Aggies had little trouble defeating the Tulane Basketeers by a score of 30- 14. The last game of the trip was played with L. S. U. at Baton Rouge. Our team, worn out by the long road trip, ..was in poor condition to grapple with the wily Tigers. Consequently we went down in defeat by a score of 25-12, Bower and Laird playing the best for A. M. Ole Miss was fortunate enough to break even in the two games played on their court. The first night our team lacked pass work and our defeat was celebrated by a holiday for the Ole Miss Students. The final score being 23-10 in favor of Ole Miss. The second night, however, our team upset all their expectations and won a fast game by a score of 21-15, the en- tire team starring. The opening of the gymnasium was celebrated by two victories over Howard College. The first night was a walkaway for A. M., the final score being 56-10. Red Hughes, Vernon, and Bower starred in this game. The next night Howard played like a different team, but A. M. also was in fine form and the game was much more interesting. The final count showed A. M. the victors by a score of 27-13. The second trip was a successful one in that we won two of the three games played. The University of Alabama was the first victim and was de- feated by the score of 32-10. The next on the schedule was Birmingham Athletic Club. This was the best game of the season and the Aggies rushed the B. A. C. players off their feet. Red Hughes was the individual star of the game and acquired 19 of the 37 points accumulated by our team. The score was 37-23 in our favor. The final game of the series resulted in a defeat at the hands of Howard College by the close score of 25-23. The next games were on the campus with Mississippi College. The Ag- gies annexed both to an already growing string of victories. The first game ended with a score of 40-16, the second 25-23. These games were folloAved in close order by two with Ole Miss which were also added to our string of victories. We won the first game easily by a score of 49-13 and the second while not quite so easy could not be classed as a hard game, the score being 31-12. In these two games Laird and Anderson starred as guards. Page One Hundred Seventy-three Page One Hundred Seventy-four Track «K ' 1 - CAPTAIN WILLIPORD Page One Hundred Seventy-five M o a Pd e Ow Hundred Seventy-six Record of Track Team 1919 HE loss of practically every letter man from the track squad necessitated the development of new material in every event on the track calendar. Capt. Treleaven had shown promise as a relay and dash man while train- ing for distance work, hence was called to new events in the sprints. Ellis, a freshman and Baskin gave promise of great things in the future. The former was badly handicapped late in the season by a bruised heel and did not show his true form in competition. Baskin was slow in rounding in- to condition, but his great stride won a place in the 440. at Atlanta, his team mate, Vernon nosing him out for 3rd place. Plyler won second place in the High Hurdles while Dossett won second place in the low ones. Nelson tied for first place in the pole vault whi second in the shot put and third in the discus. Capt. elect Sam Williford took A. M. won the medley relay cup from (ieorgia Tech. Ellis Dossett, Plyler and Worthington shared the honors in this event. Our men were forced to enter the first, last and only meet of the season without previous competition. Had the financial condition id ' the Athletic Association permitted our engaging in a dual meet at home previous to taking the Atlanta trip the team would have been much stronger. Spencer, a freshman from the Cross Country squad showed the benefits of his all year training by taking a place in the mile. Early in the year Hamilton and Plyler had taken silver trophy sups in order named from the Aviators of Payne Field in their invitation six mile race. With the opening of school in September Capt. Williford, Plyler, Dossett, Ellis, Nelson, Spencer, Baskin, Vernon, Weissinger, Worthington ' ; Hamilton. Morrow, Gathings, Dorsey and Franklin gave promise of a strong squad for 1920. However, Dossett, Weis- singer, Gathings, Basking, Vernon. Pace and Plyler have left school; making the task of development greater than anticipated. With plenty of competition, we have a fighting chance to win first place but many points must be won by freshman if this happens. More men are out for track work than ever before. They are green and it will re- quire one year ' s work to get rid of shin soreness and start them on form. With a resumption of our State meet for High Schools on a large scale we can ex- pect to receive more experienced track material in the future. In the past eight years A. M. has broken every state record, nine S. I. A. A. records, one Western Conference record and one National record. The men, who broke these records were developed green material and had they participated several years longer in special events, the South could compare very favorably with the North and East in her records. Our record breaker Hall of fame contains the names of Scott. Biglane. Parker, Noble, Gaddy, Renfrow. Jones, Wells, Milam, and Veazey. Within the next year Capt. Williford, Ellis, Webb. Spencer and possibly others will be making a Strorg bid for honors. Page One Hundred Seventy-seven Page One Hundred Seventy-eight ?z2 Houston ID MorrotiJ hf.

If not recognized, the cadet must remain in position until further orders from the War Department. — General Order No. 13. Upon seeing the United States flag, the private must salute, uncover if covered, present arms, face the flag, and whistle the national anthem. (If alone the private may sing instead of whistling.) General orders No. 433. Privates will salute cadet officers as above (G. O. No. 13). Cadet officers will recognize salute s with a kick. Privates must, therefore, never face officers when saluting. (G. O. No. 527). Ceremonies The battalion must fall in for inspection, and no cadet is allowed to fall out with the officers. Cadets must wear inspection uniform, which consists of one hat, one blouse, a shirt, a pair of shoes, some pants, leggings, suspenders or a belt, socks, and a pair of unmentionables. Any man appearing without even the last named, is subject to a fine and imprisonment. A shave is required. Only in active service do privates hide behind bushes. Bowdegged cadets need not bring their knees together at attention. What the Lord has put asunder, let no man join together. No privates may look at girls going past. Neither must he throw kisses at them. The privileges of officers must be carefully preserved. (G. O. No. 744). Page Three Hundred Ten The Joys of Getting Out the 1 Reveille 1. Sleepless nights. 2.

Through the long tire- some nights of planning, work, and worry, we have at last sent in the final manuscript to the printer and The Reveille is Finished. Our work is done and our efforts have been directed in such a way as to make the most successful Annual in history. We have striven to put in this book things that will remind you, in after years, of the happiest days of your life. We have tried to please everyone and in our efforts to do this we hope that we have succeeded. Before our elec- tion we thought the task was easy. But how badly we were mistaken. There came the sleepless nights with 330 blank pages staring us in the face to be filled with uncommon subject matter. After this was com- plete avc again say, it was easy. Today we turn our thoughts back to our routine of class work in pursuit of that small fragment of paper we have so long desired to obtain, Diploma. In this work, though we are far behind, we feel we have been repaid in our efforts to produce a book, that in after years we may look through its pages and recall the happy moments of Col- lege life. There are many to whom we wish to tender our thanks for their co-operation in helping to make this book a success. To Mr. Wamsley, the photographer, for his untiling efforts to make the best pictures in the history of The Reveille. To Professor Harried, who helped greatly by giving us the scenes of our Athletic Life. To Hammersmith-Kort- meyer Co., for their helpful suggestions and the care and attention they have shown our book. To the member of the Senior Class for their help in contributing material, and their willingness to help make the book a success. The past year has been one of hard work and pleasurable as- sociations, and if we have been forced to give up anything for The Reveille it has been eminently worth while. J. V. VERNON.
