FIRSTLY: The artistic design at the entrance to our building, so cheerfully contributed by our admirers. SECONDLY: The notable Murphy Bowl, or convertable swim- ming pool with bleechers to match. THIRDLY: The most honorable name of Murphy High—may it be handed down through the ages. FOURTHLY: A clear title to the trophy offered by the Mobile Atheletic Association. LASTLY: The prospects of a Stadium that will better everything which it concerns. In witness whereof, we have here set our hands and applied our seal this first day of June, nineteen hundred and twenty-nine. 1929 Senior Class of Murphy High School Velma Lassiter Council Sworn to and subscribed before us the said Senior Class of 1929, as its last will, and attested by us in its presence and in the presence of each other on the date thereof. Annie Katherine Provost Albert McAuley 'v SENIOR CLASS POEM BY RUTH MATHIS The flower of years has blossomed. The petals are ready to fall, Having crept like a vine to the summit, What glory lies over the wall. The gold of the sun gave it beauty, The rains failed to crush it to earth, And the blue of the sky gave it color, For blue is the symbol of worth. The petals wait laden with treasure To be borne from the garden fold; May the best of that scattered blossom Shed the spirit of the “Blue and Gold.” SENIOR CLASS HISTORY BY FRANCKS ZACHARIAS Listen, kind people, and you shall hear Of the four years’ struggle we hold so dear; On the sixteenth of September in twenty-five, Hardly a man is now alive Who can fail to remember that day and year. One year of labor in Barton’s old halls, Dumb little Freshmen doomed to pitfalls. Learning, so to speak, our A, B, C’s, Then moving to Mobile High For our X, Y, Z’s. Led by our teachers, so tried and so true, As Sophomores we picked up our banners anew, Waded through text books, some old, some new. To make a good record, 'twas our duty to do. • Behold! Proud Juniors we now return, Having made up our minds to study and learn, For at last we had found that where knowledge is sought, It must be earned and cannot be bought. As Seniors our chances looked ever so bright. The long sought goal was now in sight, We passed our exams; no one was deceived, Eureka! Our diplomas we now have received. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY BY GLADYS HENDRIX As a reporter I was failing! After graduating in the class of ’29 from “Ole” Murphy Hi five years before, I immediately got a job as re- porter for The Mobile Register. I could write, but my weakness was the inability to get big scoops. My boss told me I had to wake up or I was fired ! Imagine my embarrassment and confusion as I started down the street to break the sad news to my old friend, Pauline Pigford, who was private secretary to Albert Ashley, the noted lawyer. After much worrying and thinking we decided that a splendid idea would be to make a world tour and find out what had become of all our classmates. This would be a big sensation, and my job would be safe! I rushed down and bought my ticket from Curtis Herzog, the ticket agent for the L. N., and waited for the train to come to take me on my great adventure. While waiting, whom should I see but Henry Faville, the president of the railroad. He told me that Edward Mor- gan. Frank Backes, Le Roy Brady, Clark Hall, Lucille Calhoun, Jose- phine Gentry and Ernest Carlin were in his employ. The train arriving, I was surprised to find the engineer to be none other than Frank Blackstone, and the chief fireman. William Davis. On the train was a road show company on its way to New Orleans. In the group were Janice Cassidy, George Sandoz, Claude Roberts,. Doris Pierre and Lucille Metzger. I dropped off for a brief stay in Biloxi, and found Helen Sumrall hostess at the Buena Vista, and the guests listed were Carolee Rain, Augusta Penny, Mr. and Mrs. Connors Hudoff (nee Cleo Constantine), Lillian Leigh. Sarah Mclnnis, and Mr. and Mrs. Al- bert Johnson (nee Bernice Whitworth). My next stop was New Orleans, where I found many old friends. I stayed at the Hotel Vander Sys. The orchestra, the Currey Custers, was composed of Bernice Lambert, Clarence Bogue, Raymond Crosby, Marie Dolbear and Dorothy Dramburg. Walking along the street, I gazed long at the following signs: “Allie Heiter—Millinery,” “The Pollock Dressmaking Co.” ‘‘Rapier Repair Shop,” ‘‘The Robinton School of Dancing,” ‘‘Blanche McDonald Barber Shop,” ‘‘Tonight—Phillip’s Theatre—Olaf Knudsen. Eva Thurber and Mary Lang in the ‘‘Eternal Triangle.” In Houston I found Billye Hickman, an organist in the Thoss Theatre; Jere McConnell and Velma Lassiter, his wife; Martha Hynd- man, Marcelle Malone. Lenora Parnell and Marjorie Jones—stenog- raphers. Out in the wilds of Texas were Charles Pierson, Walter Pen- degrass. Sue McVoy, Madeline Mavgarden. Richard Lawton and Ellen Laurendine. Over in sunny California were many familiar faces. Some of Mack Sennett’s Bathing Beauties were Leota Alumbaugh, Elsie Brannon, Ethel Gaston. Cherry McBroom. Nadyne Pappas. Janie Marion, Helen Cumins, Barbara Doughty. Maxine Schamber, Mary Todd Tate. Marie Schuettner and Helen Reid. Shining on the silver screen were Migo- nette Lambert. Emmett Conrad, Oleta Brannon. Audrey Allen. Eliza- beah Crawford, Frances Stainback, Adeline Rush and Ellis White- Spunner. I was very surprised to find William Barrow and Dorothy Wil- liams, his wife, owning a large ranch up in Montana. Emoloved on their ranch were William Brooks, Ullman Dulaney and Marius Niolon. Mary Gillen was governor of the state, and her secretary, Jeanne Fisher. I was anxious to get to Chicago, feeling there was good news, and sure enough—I was greeted by John Wildman, editor of the Chicago Tribune. He showed me his paper, and on the society page was listed the debutantes, among them Lucy Lesesne. Loris Brettel, Cecille Bolling, Nellie Mae Currey and Eleanor Taylor. I turned to the stock markets and found the names of Edward Condon, Albert Dodge. George Haas and Rush Cassidy in the prominent business men of Chicago. On the front page was a picture of C. L. Nelson, newly elected president of the Illinois Central Railroad Company. At the Metropolitan Opera House I heard Benners Dismukes. Doris Sandberg, Clare Rosenbaum and Daniel Webster. Looking through the audience, I recognized Ma- rian Betrix, Dorcus Bell, Mildred Gaston and her fiance, Frank Haight, Miriam Clinton and Clarkson Hamilton, and Mr. and Mrs. Avera Blake (nee Sarah Nabers). Upon my arrival in New York, I rushed immediatelv to the home of my old friend, Miriam Havssen. on Park Avenue. She introduced me to her husband, Horace Shepard, who is now a broker on Wall Street. She gave a tea and invited Julia Hauser. Martez Lowry. Marga- ret Jones. Bessie Manning. Nellie Ehman, Janis Gray, Jewel Curry, Peggy Hardee, Corabel Scales. Sara Amelie Shultz. Marietta Stark. Kathleen Stimpson, Elizabeth Sturtevant and Katherine Thompson. I visited the studio of Helen Hill, the famous artist, and her models are Dorothy Talley and Gladys Hicks. At a ball I met Louise McLeod and Oliver Haas, Peggy McMahon and Jack Hybart, A. K. Provost and Howard Pringle, and Mary Bolling Mickle and Carter McFarland. I hated to leave that wonderful Metropolis, but I finally sailed for Europe. Paris was glorious I In a night club party I met Grace Evans and Hill Malone, Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Quint, Mrs. Quint being none other than the former Ethel Kelly, Genevieve McDonald and Carl Craft, Harry Mattei and Albert McAuley. In the chorus was Belle Minhin- nette, Lucille Allen. Margaret Graddick, Germania Brewton, Gladys Brown, Alice Duncan, Helen Thomas. Lucile Young, Lucy Avera. Mar- garet Saunders, Frances Smith and Grace Benton. I sat on the boule- vard in the warm sunshine at one of the ooen cafes watching the neople go by. There were Elizabeth Adams. Pearl Gentry, Rebecca Brook, Lena Thompson, Lucile Green, Grace Brook and Helena Binet going to work. In the Cafe de Crews I dined with Emilie and Helen Bove. the artists; Walter English and James Davis, noted sculptors, and William Semple, the great designer. Catching one of the sightseeing buses, I was astounded to see Jack Palmes as the driver. We passed a gor- geous structure which the guide, Richard Helveston, said had been built by the famous architect, Maurice Sigler. The captain on the boat taking me to London was Bob Roberts. We passed a U. S. navy ship, and I recognized Ehvood Rouse, Calvin Spencer, Fred Pearson, Edward Mallett and Fred Mathers among the sailor lads. London was mystical. I took a cab, driven by Joe Chan- dler. to the Hotel Gay. At a dinner with Kenneth Engwall and his wife, the former Mary Catherine Scott, who were honeymooning in London, we were entertained by Marion Broadway’s dazzling beauties. In the chorus was Dorothy Addison, Irma Steiner, Elsie Tyler, Irene Crowley and Vevia Williams. Harvey George gave a wonderful presentation. I learned that Mary Harris was studying at a Music Conservatory in London, and Elizabeth Duke is now an art teacher. In her class are Myra Bucrh, Mary Berger, Ida Mae Russell and Mary Aldridge. Eu- nice Scott had just swum the English Channel for the third time, break- ing all records made by Connie Fowler. In Parliament is James Feore, Happy Whatley, Marion Ward and Harold Rouse. I made a wonderful ocean voyage to Rome, and its magnificent beauty was breathtaking. I was greeted by a very loud cry in my ear—“Step right this way to the great International Oratorical Con- test!” I turned, and there was Ed Southall, our old cheerleader. I decided to visit the contest, and found, to my surprise, many old ac- quaintances. There were Thomas Habeeb, Marcus Gunter, Eugenie Lattof, Marcus Jaet. Thomas Smith, Irita Konstanzer, Edrena Mclnnis, Otto Morningstar, Marcellite Shelton, Harriet Gillette and Lula Anto- nidis. I thought that if all roads lead to Rome, I might be able to get some information concerning my other classmates who were adrift somewhere on that vast continent. After much searching, I found the following information: As missionaries in China were Dolores Beck, Ellen Ross, Bernie Ruth McLeod and Irene Rayfield; Dan and Howard Ellis had started a new Ellis Island in Germany; Ehvood Cassidy and Vernon Davis, who had been his stenographer, were on their honey- moon in Venice; the largest department store in Europe, Moore, Moore, Moore Moore, was established in Berlin; “Sleepy” Molpus had turned Bolshevik; and in Vienna. Leonard Stallworth, Ottrey Huggins, Myrtle McConnell, Marjorie Parker, Shellie Buzbee, Dorothy, Dolbear and Bessie Moulds are models in the exclusive shops. e I returned home in a new sport plane that Ulmer McLeod had just completed. We were greeted by the mayor, George Stone, and the two commissioners, John Lord and Mercer Dawson. Much to my relief, I was not greeted by my boss, but by Antoinette Harford, now city editor. A large banquet was given in my honor at the new million dol- lar Hotel Cazalas. Among those present were Kathryn Demeranville, Margaret Greer, Raymond Gilbert, Oree Hughes, Mary Kathryn Moy- ers (now Mrs. Eldrige Fairley), Adell Cooper, Helen Thompson, Har- rison Gillette, Frances Donaldson. Marjorie Gambrel. Willie Mae Hall, Ruby Raines, Norine Winter. Rosa Lee Walker, Pauline Harrison, Agnes Bell McGrath and Hazel Parker. Speeches were made by the follow- ing: Bernard Parker, chief of police; W. T. McCants, chief o fire de- partmtent; Robert Kyser, superintendent of schools; William Strain, principal Murphy Hi; Carlton White, president Chamber of Commerce; Frances Zacharias, president of Organization for Woman’s Rights, and many other noted citizens. It was altogether such an inspiring occasion that I collected all of my notes together after finding out the rest of my classmates’ fates, and wrote the best article of the year. Did I keep my job?

JUNIOR CLASS POEM VIVIAN SMALLWOOD Old Father Time was sitting in his creaking rocking chair; And looking through his volume by the lamplight’s feeble glare, He turned the leaves until he found a page that bore his name, “The Junior Class of Murphy High—its ideals and its aim”; And then he laid his pipe aside, and bent his hoary head Above the pages of the book; and this is what he read: “To seek to find in others what is good and brave and true, To give the world the best we have because it is its due, To help the right, to fight the wrong, win where others lose— These are the things we seek to do, these are the gifts we choose.” Old Father Time rose slowly from his creaking rocking chair, And rubbed his specs and folded them, then looked with vacant stare Across the room, and murmured, “Though their fight has just begun, I think that when they finish it the world will say, “Well done.” JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY BY BRITTIE EARLE BEVERLEY “History repeats itself”—so says a well known and oft-quoted adage, so do not be surprised if our history happens to be in some re- spects much like a great many other class chronicles you have read. There is still enough difference to give us a class personality of our own. Three years ago on a bright September morning the class of nine- teen thirty assembled. We represented every type of pupil: the rather slow, the careless and indifferent, the good, and the excellent. Just the same, we were a jolly crowd, lull of life, and everybody who came in contact with us realized the fact. On the first day some were so enthusiastic that they came “bright and early” and were obliged to linger on the steps until the doors were opened. That their enthusiasm did not cool under this preliminary trial is shown by the fact that some of those early ones are with us to- day. We entered the building with the proper amount of Freshman humility; our hearts quaked with the pleasure of speaking to a Senior. Our experiences during the Freshman year were too numerous to mention, but it might prove interesting to give a few facts concern- ing the class. We elected as our president, .Jo Guest, as our vice- president, Adelaide Bowab, and as our secretary and treasurer, Eliza- beth Clark. We also served as a laboratory of pedagogical principals, watching the developments from year to year. How well we remem- ber the comments of all the teachers on our ability to carry on endless conversation. We passed through the Freshman year safely, and the following September we bobbed up serenely as Sophomores. And, ah, ouv dignity and importance in our own eyes! About this time, we real- . t— ized that “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” and not wishing to classify, we decided to enjoy life for a while. But alas, we realized what Burns meant when he said, “But pleasures are like poppies spread. You seize the flower, the bloom is shed.” So we got back to work. We elected our class officers: Sam Murphy, president, Jo Guest, vice- president, Francis Drago, secretary, and Eugene Simmons, treasurer. We also elected Miss Chapman as our sponsor. Before we realized it, another year had slipped by and we found ourselves Juniors. It was here that we struggled through several new branches, the boys taking an active part in athletics. This year our class officers were Sam Murphy, president, Jo Guest, vice-president, Diana Kaye, sec- retary. and Jim Spafford, treasurer. For the third time we elected Miss Chapman for our sponsor. And now the three long years have passed and the Freshman of nineteen twenty-six are the Juniors of nineteen twenty-nine. 6 JUNIOR CLASS ROLL Aldridge, Caret Aldridge, Henri Allen, Dorothy Allen, Harold A lien bach, Magdalen Anderson, Mary Helga Andrews, James Herbert Annan, Melville Gertrude Askew, Joe B.

We went aboard the ship and set to sea. After ten days we landed on the coast of “Education ’ and were at once sent to the front. The first battle we had was the battle of “Geometry”. The gen- eral who was in command of “Equations” put up a hard fight, but we at last conquered him and then held our grounds easily. Our next advance was on “Biology”, a very strong defense, but after nine months of constant fighting, it too, was conquered. We then moved against the forest of “History ’ where many enemies were entrenched. While there was some fighing we soon captured the enemy. But these things were the least of our worries, for we had not yet passed the strongest fortress of all. “English.” We struggled day and night trying to over- come this grea’t defense, but such generals ah “Phrase” and “Clause” had us puzzled. Then General “Narration” and “Exposition” brought their troops forward, and it appeared as if we were going to be de- feated. Brimring up all our forces and surrounding these enemies en- trenched at English”, we made a final charge and the seemingly in- surmountable difficulty was overcome. When aU this news reached the Commander-in-chief of the ene- mies, he surrendered. The greater part of our men returned safely home, but there were some left on the battle fields. We are all happy now, but there is talk of a Junior War; and it is said to be only a few months off. SOPHOMORE CLASS POEM BY ALEENE FLEMING Come on, Sophomores, rouse your spirits. Push away into the deep, Leave the harbor snugly lying, For the “timid” souls to keep. Push off, Sophomores, draw your anchor, You can never rest content, With such daring spirits in you, Till your voyage at last is spent. Push off, Sophomores, leave the land light, Push off far into the main, Brave the sea with all its terrors. You have mast of hardened grain. Push off, Sophomores, pull the oars hard While your tide is at the flood, In your veins is richly surging All the hopes of youth's hot blood. Push away, then,—leave the shallows, Strike far out into the deep, Though the storms rage and the billows Roar and surge and madly leap. On the deep it may be lonely, Sailing solitary on— No matter—Murphy Hi will guide you When all other guide is gone. Then, push off and sail, () strong ones, On and on into the deep. Far unknown isles await you. And their anxious vigils keep. Sail away into the sunset. Brave the terrors and the night, Find the isles unkown before you, Diamonds flash there rare and bright. Sai!, O sail beyond the sunset, . On a far and mightier main In your braving, in your battling, In your striving is your gain. SOPHOMORE CLASS ROLL Adair, Marion Adair, Marlin E.

We’ll keep these standards as years go by, And give all the credit to Murphy Hi . -m-Hi___r FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY EVA MAE BRANNAN September 17, 1928, we started into the Wilderness of Education at Murphy High. And really, with all due respects to the teachers, this wilderness was something of a menagerie. There was the Lion of Math, and the Wildcat of Science, both of whom, if you please, not only re- quired their meat raw. but went so far as to demand a certain cut— brain—steeped in the fat of intelligence, heated over the flame of am- bition, and fried on the skillet of text-books. We had quite a struggle here with all this cookery and wild animal business, you can imagine; but. modest as I always am, I will have to admit that neither a French cook nor a Barnum animal tamer could have brought that lion and that wildcat to terms as quickly as we did. The Tiger of Physical Education was a rather hard-boiled old thing, too, but after we had expended all our surplus energy on him, he became as meek as a kitten, and even let us tie knots in his tail. Now for a line-up on the physical characteristics of the country we were travelling: It was a land of milk, and—well, whatever else you wanted to get in the cafeteria; but despite its apparent wealth of nat- ural resources, there were several physical features that made travel- ling rather difficult. For instance, there was a pesky little range of hills that plagued our existence: Hill of English. Mountain of Arith- metic—they may be just names to you, but to us they were sure enough dirt and rocks and avalanches. We climbed these hills—don’t ask me how—and as we pulled our weary steps to the summit of a noble height, as we raised tired eyes to the sky, we saw a land of promise and a glorious sunset—Sophomore Land and Ambition would probably be a better way to classify them. We contemplated the land only a few moments—its rugged peaks, and deep-worn valleys, and churning streams were too indistinct for our tired eyes to fathom—but we never tired of the sunset. We drank it in: we let its blues and its gold-tinged pinks and its burnt yellows and violet-flecked greens sink to our very souls, till slowly, very slowly, a soft sheet of silver pulled its fluffy gray clouds over this brilliant array, and our minds were at rest for a time. }p FRESHMAN CLASS ROLL Abbot, Charles Abbot.

This course gives the pupil enough knowledge of mechanics, and machine work to secure a job in a shop. This two year course will enable him to learn a trade. The course fits any boy for work by giving him a taste of not only the automobile work but in Engl:sh, Science, Math., Mechanical Drawing, and Machine Work. He not only learns about the automobile but about a vast number of things, such as welding, molding machinery, and electrical work. English is considered the most important acquired subject. In English we learn how to speak and write good English. Science is also very important when considering its relation to the automobile. Each and every mechanic should know the effect of chemicals on medals, of the chemical effect of one medal on another, the cause of this effect and how each should be treated. He should also know of the principles of electricity. Mechanical Drawing is another important factor to the mechanic because it enables him to read blue prints and to draw up his plans for work. Mathematics is also important because it has an important part in figuring out exact measurements, such as piston displacements, etc. These studies may be secured in the Vocational Department of the Murphy High School. William Jacobson The class roll for 1928-29 is as follows: William Bell, Henry Beuk, Ed Cameron. Harold Carrie. Paul Dossett, Laweren e Gunn, Norman Hansen, Willie Hansen, William Jacobson, Ralph Le Holland. Jack Nicholl, James Roberts, Roscoe Schlorff, Harry Smith and James Went- worth. 5 John Wildman THE MOHIAN STAFF Albert McAuley Editor-in-Chief. Business Manager .. Assistant Editor .......

HAND Treasurer of Athletic Association '.... LETTER MEN OLIVER HAAS .............“Lead” Captain and Halfback “Lead” has been as good a player as Murphy has ever had. He will wear a sweater next year with four stripes and two stars. “Lead” was always in every play and always working: hard. He coi.ld cut down three or four men at the same time, giving wonderful interference; and whenever a yard or two was needed he always made it. About the biggest less to the team will be that of Haas. C. L. NELSON..............“Lil” Alternate Captain and Quarterback In tight places, and whenever we wanted a cool-headed play, we called on “Lil.” More than once he has punted the ball far out of danger and more than once he has looked ahead and pulled just the right play. This is his third and last year. As he has starred every time he played we will always miss him, and it will be hard to fill his place. EMMETT CONRAD. “Cake Eater” Guard Whenever you see somebody with twj hundred and fifty pounds of bone ar.d muscle facing you across the line, it is tin.e to move. “Cake Kater” starred in almost every game of the year, having show'ed his grit time and time again. A big hcle will be left when he graduates as a thrse year letter man. ERNEST MOLPUS................“Sleepy’ End Different teams have tried at the first of the game to go around “Sleepy’s” end, but never made a gain, so had to go elsewhere. “Sleepy” will be another loss tl at will be felt a great deal by the team. 3y his good tackling he inspired the team, making them win many victories. This is his third year on the varsity. WILLIAM BARROW............“Swilly” Tackle Whenever a person comes out of a game with bruises all over his body you can tell what kind of a frame he has played. “Swil- ly” never failed to play his hardest and hold down his part of the line, and the only time he would quit working was when someone took his place. This is his third and last year on the varsity. THERRELL MALONE............“BUI” Half Bill very seldom failed whenever he set out to do a thing. He was as good a pass receiver as Murphy Hi has “ever had. Whenever we wanted good interference we called on Bill to help, and help he did. This is also Bill’s last year. He is leaving with two stripes and a fine reputation. JIM SPAFFORD ...........“Anvil” Center If you are looking for a good cente- with brains plus brawn, call on “Anvil.” It was very soldom that anybody came with brains plus brawn, ca’l on “Anvil.” always was in every play p’aying his hard- est. This is his second year. He will be back next year with plenty of pep. HAPPY WHATLEY.............“Freckles” End The fellow that felt the losses most was “Freckles.” but even while losing he played his hardest and grinned at the other team. This is his second year on the varsity, and also his last, as he is graduating. Freckles” has proven that it doesn’t take dumb people to play foot- ball, as he stands very high in school. DANIEL PETRO..............“Signore” Guard A fellow that tries hard and then when he sees he cannot do it and lets someone else try it, is a man. “Signore” was as deadly a tackier as we have ever had. This being his second year, he proved what he could do. He will be back again with us next year. GEORGE SHEARER ............“Clabber” Center At the first of the year the coach looked for a center. After having tried out several, he discovered “Clabber.” “Clabber” was always full of pep, and many a time was an inspiration to the tern ain a lax moment. He Iways fought with everything he had. This is also his first year, but he will be back next year. BILL BLOUNT .........“Chickasaw” Tackle “Chickasaw” never failed coach when he was sent in. He was always back of the line after the tackle. This is his first year on the varsity, which means that next year he should be one of the stars of the season. He was always a friend, and would do anything you would ask him to in the way of favors. AUBREY MACDONALD.......“Mac” End Coach didn’t discover the powers of “Mac” until late in the season. “Mac” was down under every punt, many times getting the tackle. “Mac” is very quiet, but “still waters run deep,” so you know what he is. He will be back next year, this being his first year on the varsity. EDWARD WRIGHT “Pretty Boy” Halfback It takes patience and work to make a letter on a football team, and if anybody has worked, it was “Pretty Boy ’ Wright. When coach needed someone to fill an im- portant place in the backfield he asked “Pretty Boy.” This is his first year, but not his last, as he will be back, ready to go, next year. HENRY FAVILLE...........“Backdoor” End The Lanier game made Henry famous. Always a good end, he proved that “ge- nius” is one-tenth inspiration and nine- tenths perspiration. HARRY MATTEI............“Cyclone” Halfback “Cyclone” earned his name because he could run so fast. He was death to the opposing team when he was called on an end run. More than once he has ripped off several long gains. This is his first year on the varsity. He was always will- ing to do anything he could to help you. JOHN VANDER SYS...........“Johnny” Tackle Whenever “Johnny” was put into the fray he was sure to do his best. He had linesman. He has tried hard, and has an ability to tackle, and made a very good finally won his letter. This is his first year on the varsity and his last, as he graduates. 6 REVIEW OF 1928-29 FOOTBALL SEASON MURPHY HI 8, PASCAGOULA 0 The first game of the season showed what the Murphy lads were made of. The first half being slow, Coach Dobbins injected enough pep to make his team the victors by a 6 to 0 score. Phipps made the only score, while Molpus starred on the line. MURPHY HI 47, GROVE HILL 0 The Murphy Hi Panthers defeated the Grove Hill eleven by a very decisive score in their second game of the season. The game was more closely played than the score indicates, with an attendance of about one thousand. Hybart and Harrow starred on the line, Phipps and Haas in the backfield. The touchdowns were made by Barrow, Whatley, Ma- lone, Haas, Nelson, and Phipps (2). MURPHY HI 26, SPRING HILL 0 The undefeated Murphy Hi added another scalp to their string by defeating the Baby Badgers. The Panthers lost no time in scoring, Phipps going over the goal line three minutes after the starting whistle. Phipps and Nelson were the main stars, while the touchdowns were made by Phipps (3) and Haas (1). MURPHY HI 38, ENSLEY 8 A devastating passing attack which dazzled Ensley from whistle to whistle gave Murphy a 38 to 6 victory over the Yellow Jackets in Murphy’s first night game. No team of prep ranking to play in Bir- mingham this fall has functioned with the smoothness of the Murphy aggregation, nor has any high school flashed so versatile an attack. Molpus, Phipps, Haas and Nelson starred for the locals, while Sweeny and Neal played a fine game for Ensley. MURPHY HI 54, G. C. M. A. 6 Murphy Hi trounced the Gulf Coast Military Academy in the fifth game of the season to the tune of 54 to 6. Led by Captain Haas, who crossed the goal line five times, Murphy outplayed the military lads in every department of the game. Molpus and Conrad played best on the line, with the whole backfield sharing the backfield honors for the locals, while Cadenhead and Fulton stood out for the visitors. MURPHY HI 19, PHILLIPS 6 Murphy’s crippled but determined Panthers continued their win- ning streak by bringing Phillips Hi of Birmingham into camp. The game was a duel of educated toes most of the time, with both teams playing hard. Conrad and Spafford did the big share of the work on the line, while Malone and Nelson held down the backfield. Cooper and Laney starred for the visitors. MURPHY HI 0, BILOXI 13 The Biloxi Hi Indians gave Murphy her first taste of bitter defeat. Although Biloxi had a crushing line drive the luck seemed to be against Murphy, as she was penalized twice placing the ball on her own two yard line. The stars of the game were Haas and Molpus for Murphy, and Lopez and Hood for Biloxi. MURPHY HI 0, SIDNEY LANIER 39 Led by their captain, John Cain, ground gainer de luxe, the Poets blasted whatever hope the Murphy Hi had for state championship when they twisted the tail of the Panther to the tune of 39 to 0. It was a one-sided score, but a thrilling game all the way through. Molpus and Haas, playing their next to last game, starred for Murphy; while Cain, Shackleford and Davidson starred for Sidney Lanier. MURPHY HI 0 WRIGHTS 7 In the third disaster of the season, Wrights won Murphy's last game by a score of 7 to 0. No muddier gridiron has been seen. This placed the teams on an even basis. In the fourth quarter, Captain Semple intercepted a pass and ran for a touchdown. Ten men played their last game for Murphy, while Molpus and Haas shared honors'for the locals, and Semple and Adams starred for Wrights. The city championship was awarded to no one, as Murphy won over Spring Hill by a score of 26-0. Spring Hill won over Wrights by a score of 53-12, and Wrights beat Murphy Hi by a score of 7 to 0. Cit- ronelle was defeated by Spring Hill and Wrights, but beat Murphy’s third team, 7 to 6. 6 4 — RESUME OF BOYS’ BASKETBALL SEASON OF 1928-1929 The season opened with sixty-five boys reporting for practice. In a few days the coach cut the squad to fifteen. Regular practice was begun, and everybody worked hard to mould the squad into a fine team. A few practice games were played and coach was able to pick his team. MURPHY 24—WRIGHTS 12 The first game was harder fought than indicated by the score, as there was great rivalry between the two teams. Both teams played a nice floor game and passed well. Malone, Haas and Jackson were the stars, as, with the help of the others, they worked the ball nicely down the floor. MURPHY 2i—SPRING HILL FRESHMEN 28 This game was nip and tuck all the way through, with both teams playing well. The visitors showed fine form, with the score ending in their favor. Cassidy was high point man with Nelson playing a fine game as guard. MURPHY 20—WRIGHTS 4 In the second game of the three-game series, Murphy greatly out- played Wrights in every form of the game. Cassidy was again high- point man with .Jackson as his running mate. As Murphy won this game she was sure of the series, although they played another one. MURPHY 18—SPRING HILL FRESHMEN 26 Murphy made her first trip to the college. Although she was greatly outplayed, she put up a grim fight and dogged the Hillians throughout the game. Cassidy tied for high-point honors in this game with Aithens of Spring Hill. Jackson played a great game at guard. MURPHY 33—CITRONELLE 19 In a fast but one-sided game, Murphy won her third victory of the season over Citronelle. The visitors played a nice game, but couldn’t seem to find the goal. Hutto of Citronelle tied with Cassidy for honors, both scoring the lucky number of thirteen points. .......... ' ‘-A . MURPHY 16—HEBREWS A. C. 13 Murphy was after revenge. In a practice game at the first of the season, the Hebrew Athletic Club won with a score of 16 to 13. Mur- phy, in the second game just reversed the score. The game was one of the best ever played on the Y” court, being fast, with both teams evenly matched. Chamblin was high-point man with Wynne playing the best game for Murphy. MURPHY 18—LANIER 48 Murphy hoped to win over Lanier more than any other team as she was beaten so badly by them in football, but in basketball the same as in football, Murphy met her worst defeat. The game was hard fought but Murphy came out on the short end. MURPHY 21—WRIGHTS 11 In the third straight victory over Wrights, Murphy showed she was superior in basketball. The game was slow, with neither side playing up to par basketball. MURPHY 32—CITRONELLE 10 The locals won their second decisive victory over Citronelle in a slow and uninteresting game. Both teams seemed to lack the neces- sary pep. Shearer and Cassidy each tied with ten points for high scor- ing honors, with Jackson playing the best game at guard. MURPHY 26—EVERGREEN 15 Evergreen came here with twenty consecutive victories on her belt, but Murphy went into the game determinedly, and came out way ahead. This team couldn’t hold Cassidy either, as he made eleven of the twenty-six points. MURPHY 44—SEMMES 5 This was about the most awkward game of the season. Neither team showed any special form or good playing, although everybody on Murphy seemed to have an eye for the goal. MURPHY 19—POTTER-CROSBY 55 Murphy again met one of the best teams in the South by tackling Potter-Crosby. The game was fast throughout, Wynne being an out- standing star. MURPHY 27—SPRING HILL H. S. 15 In the first game of the District Tournament, Murphy drew and very decisively whipped our old and everlasting opponents to the tune of 27 to 15. 'fry') X.($) MURPHY 25—BAY MINETTE 13 Murphy advanced into the second round of the tournament and defeated Bay Minette in a slow but rather interesting game. Molpus played a fine floor game and tied for scoring honors. MURPHY 22—FOLEY 21 As Murphy won over Bay Minette. she next played Foley. Foley was sure she had the game cinched, and because of overconfidence and fine playing by Murphy, we came out ahead. Perez made the tying goal which made the game fast and interesting. MURPHY 17—EVERGREEN 16 In Murphy’s second game with Evergreen she played for champion- ship of the District Tournament. In a fast game. Murphy just barely came out ahead. Shearer outplayed anyone around him. MURPHY 24—SLOCOMB 20 As the District Tournament was won by Murphv, she advanced into the State Tournament in a very slow game, as both teams were unused to the court. Murphy came out victorious. MURPHY 12—HACKLEBURG 26 Our team next came against a team which later turned out to be the State Champions, Hackleburg. Murphy was outplayed, but tried hard and fought a fine game from whistle to whistle. Wynne was the outstanding player for Murphy.

Not bad for a brand new team. tain Elizabeth Culpepper, forward, and Grace Evans, guard. Coach Thomason found other good players to fill out the rest of the team. Elsie Tyler and Hal'.ie Mae Botter captured the positions of guards, while Julia Hauser and Dorothy Wilson took center as their place. Cap- tain Culpepper and Helen Abbot were excellent forwards. If at any time one of our regular guards were out, Grace Evans filled the position very well and showed good form. Louise Strong also played guard. Connie Fowler played well at all positions except jumping center, and had she been a little taller could have played that also. “Skeet” McConaghy, the smallest member of the team, was a mighty good little forward. In the beginning things looked as though we would have a very successful season, but losing their game to Theodore disheartened the girls quite a litt’e. Captain Culpepper and Tyler were the stars for Murphy, although both teams played a fast, clean game. This game was played on the high school court. The two games with Citronelle, played on the Y. M. C. A. court, were victories for our girls. The outstanding players for the high school were Captain Culpepper, Tyler, Wilson and Evans. Semmes also suffered defeat at their hands on the Y. M. C. A. court. This game was well played, and the team proved to have splen- did teamwork. Both teams played splendidly. Captain Culpepper, Tyler and Wilson were outstanding for Murphy. The first game played was with the high school alumni, on the Mobile Recreation Department court. Our girls’ defeat in this only made them work the harder. Another game played on the Recreation Department court was with a local team, “The Owls,” who were defeated at the hands of the Pantherettes. Captain Culpepper and Tyler again starred for Murphy. The Pantherettes played a game with Lanier High in Montgomery, but were defeated. The game was played on the Lanier High School court. The Pantherettes fought hard, Captain Culpepper and Abbot starring; but the game ended with a victory for Lanier. The last game the girls played was with Bay Minette at the District Tournament in Evergreen. By losing this game, the Pantherettes were barred from the State Tournament. Captain Culpepper, Hauser and Tyler were the outstanding players for Murphy. Four “letter” girls are leaving as graduates this year: Connie Fow- ler, Grace Evans, Elsie Tyler and Julia Hauser. The others receiving letters and who will be with us next year are: Captain Culpepper, Dor- othy Wilson, Helen Abbot, “Skeet” McConaghy, Hallie Mae Botter and Louise Strong. With this nucleus for a beginning, Coach Thomason can hope to produce a winning team for Murphy High School next year.

The Panthers succeeded in winning eight out of twelve games. March 24 saw the opening of the season for Murphy High. The Cadets were the opponents. The Cadets took advantage of four Mo- bile errors with seven hits to pile up seven runs in three innings. Mc- Kinstry hit a home run in the second for Murphy High’s only marker. The game was terminated at the end of the third by rain. March 29. the L. N. ball tossers came into the Panther lair to take an 8-7 lacing. The railroad men never were in the lead, but put up a great fight. In the sixth they crossed the Dan three times on three hits and an error, one being a double bv McQuillan. In the same in- ning the Panthers scored four runs on five hits and an error, one being a double by Suarez. What'ey led the attack for Murphy with three hits, while Ollis got two for the L. N. Saturday, March 80, the Murphy Panthers journeyed to Bay Min- ette, losing to the team of that place. 6-4. Three hits and three errors gave Bay Minette three runs in the third, while three hits and two hit batters gave them three in the fourth. Becker, Bay Minette hurler. did not allow a hit until the seventh. Three singles and an error gave Mur- phy two in the eighth. Wilson’s single, Herman’s triple and Stovall’s single added two more runs in the ninth. Murphy defeated the U. S. S. Lamson 20-0 in a slow contest April 5. Stovall and Jackson hit home runs. The former also secured a dou- ble and a single. The Panthers defeated the U. M. S. Bulldogs 5-4 in a thrilling game April 12 in the first inter-city high school game. The Cadets hopped off to a three run lead, but a five run rally in the last inning brought home the victory. Brackin. Cadet pitcher, secured two of his club’s six hits. Scott led the attack for Murphy with two triples. The second game went to the Cadets 9-8. The Cadets hopped on Herman for six runs in the second and sent him to the showers. The lead was too great for Murphy. Jackson hit a home run in the first with a man on the bag. Wilson secured three hits for U. M. S., and Whatley did the same for Murphy. The Baby Badgers of Spring Hill High School sent the home boys back to town with a 13-12 defeat. The game was a slug-fest from the beginning, neither pitcher lasting the route. Hughes hit a home run for the Hill. Murphy was trailing 8-5 till the seventh, when she scored seven runs. The Hill boys scored five to take the game, which was called on account of darkness. Toenes secured three hits for Murphy, while Acosta duplicated the feat for the Hill. Murphy gained a four to one victory over the Spring Hill College Frosh. The feature of the game was the pitching of Faultz, who al- lowed only four widely scattered hits. Zieman, his opponent, also pitched a nice game. Toenes secured three hits for the Panthers. Bay Minette came to Mobile confident of another victory, but was sent away with a 12-7 defeat. Murphy drove Becker, Bay Minette ace, from the mound in the sixth. Scott started for Murphy, but gave way in the second to Herman, who allowed only five hits the remainder of the game. Becker and Gauze each rapped out two hits for the visitors. Stovall got five hits on as many trips to the platter. Murphy won the deciding game of the three game series from U. M. S., 15-7. Both teams hit hard, but the Panthers took advantage of their 16 hits to pile up 15 runs. Ten Cadets went down before Faultz’ fast one. Wilson secured three hits for the Cadets, while Toenes se- cured five for Mobile, one being a home run. Murphy lost the second game of a three game series to the Spring Hill team 13-11 in a slugging bee. The feature of the game was the hard hitting of both teams. Suarez led the attack for Murphy High with three triples. The Panthers closed the season with a win over the Hill High team, 11-2. Faultz was master at all times, allowing only six hits and striking out seven men. Jackson and Toenes led the attack for Mur- phy with three hits each, while Prendergrast secured two for the Hill. - JSs xc 'Ci) THE STUDENT CO-OPERATIVE GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION OF MURPHY HIGH SCHOOL Happy Whatley...................President Francis Drago ...........................Vice-President Dorothy McAuley.............................................Secretary SENIOR REPRESENTATIVES Mary Gillen ....Honor Committee Henry Fa ville ........Locker Committee Doris Pierre .................Traffic Committee Ernest Mol pus .........................Yard Committee Ehvood Cassidy....................Boys’ Dressing Room Committee JUNIOR REPRESENTATIVES Elizabeth Culpepper__Locker Committee Betty Conrad ............Cafeteria Committee Ed Wright..................Auto Parking Space Committee Daniel Petro.....................Boys’ Dressing Room Committee SOPHOMORE REPRESENTATIVES Betty Sadler.......Publicity Committee Lucy Baker.........Girls’ Dressing Room Committee Dorothy McAuley ....................................Secretary FRESHMEN REPRESENTATIVES Charles Schimpf........Lost and Found Committee Marion Hassett...........................Traffic Committee PRESIDENTS OF THE FOUR CLASSES C.

THAT ISN’T • u G™C10US’ forty-five, class was supposed to have begun at eight-thirty. Awfully sorry I’m tardy, students, but I was out pretty 2r 11 (Rather attractive girl, that new English teacher). V ell, lets see now, what was the assignment for today; where’s my brief case'. Oh, I guess I must have forgotten it, well, that’s all right. Head the assignment from your notebook, Pat. You misplaced it? Well, think nothing of it, I’ll excuse you, we can’t always get things right. 6 Did you study your lesson last night, Henry? No? You had a late date? Yes, vve must have our fun, mustn’t we? Do you remember the assignment, Helen? Well, does anyone remember what the lesson is for today? Gosh, we must go on; we can’t waste time like this. Can’t you hold your head up, C. L.? Wake him up, Jack, and ask him what’s the matter. Sleepy? Well, why don’t you get comfortable? There’s a bench over there, you may lie down; see if there’s a pillow in the closet. Yes, you may get some water, Allie; bring a pitcher full for the rest of us. You’ll find glasses on the shelf. Who threw that piece of paper? It was a note to Lillian. Go sit with her and tell her what you want, and donJt waste paper writing. Marietta, have you any more gum? No? Then, here’s a couple of packages for you and your friends. Yes, you may sit on top of the desks if you are more comfortable. Ed, why don’t you and Louise get together over there in the corner? Here, here’s a deck of cards for you four, and there’s a table over there. Now, for the rest of you there’s a portable in the closet, get it out and start some dancing. Sorry to have to leave you now, but I have a very pressing engage- ment. I’ll lock this door so when you hear K. J. coming you can jump out of the window. Good afternoon, boys and girls. You don’t need to straighten up, just leave things as they are. Try not to make too much noise or the teacher in the next room may be disturbed. Remember, no lesson for tomorrow. Certainly, Barrow, if you’d rather, you and Estelle may go for a walk; but stay behind the shrubbery, so no one will see you. So long!” As the Players See Us THE PLAY This is the dream I had one day When I came home from the high school play, Of course I enjoyed it heaps, you know. Although I got sleepy before time to go. Someone asked me what I liked best, I said, “When the curtain was drawn, And I could rest.” When I woke from my dreams I did laugh and moo, For what I dreamed would make you laugh, too. Now, whom do you think was the heroine, dear? None other than saucy Miss Doris Pierre. She jilted her lover full fifty days, And then walked off with Oliver Haas. Now, no scandal should be allowed. But you all know Weezie McLeod. She thought that she’d like to get in the game, Then she was the “butterfly caught in the rain.” You know all plays must have a plot, But just to be different, this one did not. The hero and heroine would not agree, So the hero thought he’d just let her be. She went her way, and he went his, Then he got caught by a girl named Liz. Now, Liz was the villainess, one might say, Vivacious McMahon took this part in the play, Of course you’re surprised at our little Peggy, Her affair in this was really quite eggy. The turn of things here was not we! regulated, ’Cause then things turned up rather complicated. For when Peggy got thru, her admirers were many, While others like me just didn’t have any. But before one could snap fingers and then turn about, Peg’s admirers rebelled and she was left out. They took up with girls from every connection. Could they break hearts? Well, I’ll say—to perfection! Among the sheiks present in this part of the play Were Malone, McConnell, and Harry Mattei. The play was a thriller, you can tell by the above; For the boys showed the girls what they knew about love. “It’s just a game,” they said, with a grin. Then they sang this song and the play did end— “We’ll be gay while we may, We’ll fill our love with laughter. We’ll be true as long as you, But not one moment after!” If it were done when ’tis done, then 'twere well It were done quickly. If we could come to this school And grasp the knowledge meant for us, Then our fourth year Might be the be-all and end-all here. But. here, at this school and with these teachers, We stay; our life to come, For in this age we still have stu- dies here Which being taught to us return To plague our present state of mind; These teachers commend the ingre- dients of their cups of knowledge To our own lips. We are here in double trust; First, as the result of our parents’ fondest ambitions For their children; then, ourselves, Who should against the stream of knowledge build a dam, Not we, the students of M. H. S.! Besides this, our instructors have been so fascinating and So alluring to us, that their virtues Will plead like angels, trumpet- tongued, against Our stormy blasts of criticism; We would not think or say Wrong things of those around us; Not comment on zeroes, emergen- cies, deficiencies or Misunderstandings of any kind; For if we did—sightless couriers of the air Should blow the horrid words in every ear, That gossip should drown the wind. We have no faults To prick the sides of our con- science, but only Highest ambitions, which o’erleap themselves And fall on one another. Just because my heart is new Your fingers itch to break it, too. I don’t care greatly if you do, For ihe next in line has mending glue. IN A FRESHMAN’S EYES A senior stood on the railroad track, The train was coming fast; The train got off the railroad track, And let the senior pass. SONG OF A SENIOR I’m tired of living alone, I want a home of my own, I’m fairly good looking, But how I hate cooking, That’s why I’m living alone! I’m tired of eating alone, I want someone to help pick the bone; But I have no riches, And hate to wash dishes, That’s why I’m living alone. I’m tired of sleeping alone, I want a bed-fellow at home, I don’t mind a licking. But how I hate kicking, That’s why I’m living alone. I’m tired of being alone, I’d like sometimes to talk on the phone, But gossipers don’t rate, And all low-down I hate, That’s why I’m living alone. I’m tired of going alone, I want someone with whom I can crone, But while I'm out riding, I hate back seat driving, That’s why I’m living alone! I’m tired of living alone, I want a home of my own, I’m fairly goodlooking. But how I hate cooking, That’s why I’m living alone! LITTLE BITS OF NOTHING Now, this is a poem of Doris Pierre, We have in our hearts for her great fear; For anywhere around this school She’ll make you obey that traffic rule. Here’s to another one of our girls Known around here by her curls. Lib Crawford, I believe, is her name; She’ll surely make the hall of fame. There’s lots of things about C. L.; Hut then I guess that I won’t tell, for what most interests us all Is how he really plays football! Pals all around we find, Here are three I have in mind— Thurber, Brettel, and Currey, When they’re around they make things hurry. Next comes our editor, Some might ask what “he be for”; Hut if it were not for John We wouldn’t have this Mohian. Beauties here, well, I should say. Just strings of them every day, Lassiter, Pierre, Crawford and Leigh, Just as lovely as they can be. Next in line is good old Happy, Now, this really should be snappy, Hut in my hurry I will say, He is good for any day. Little girls around this school Are the cutest, that’s the rule. Lucy, A. K., Sarah, too, Are the ones we will show you. Now, what I must say of our cute little boys, No, I won’t say they're just toys, For without Albert, Jake, and Ter- ry, too, Well, we just wouldn’t do!
