I saw an army marching near Like soldiers to a fight. I saw their faces shining clear As dawning after night. Their garments were the shades of blue That shines in Mother’s eyes; Their shields were of the purest gold Beneath the bluest skies. And as they marched, some fell aside; The others, brave and bold, Were onward led, by strength and pride To reach their cherished goal. I saw the triumph in their eyes— A battle almost won! And then, in them, I recognized The class of thirty-one. And lo! They passed so close to me, I heard their marching song. And with a heart so glad and free I joined that happy throng. THE 1931 MOhlAN SENIOR CLASS ID1LL By ISABEL WILLEY We, the Seniors of Murphy High School, being of sound mind and free will have come to the parting of the ways where we must leave the life that has been so dear to us in the school room and venture forth into realms unknown. As we can not take with us into the new sphere many possessions which we have accumulated here, and as we have a sincere desire to bestow them worthily upon our successors, we do will and bequeath the following: Item I. To the faculty, our esteem and regard for their constant help and encouragement to us in our efforts to reach the goal. Item II. To the Junior Class, the good example that we have tried to give the underclassmen. May they fill the position of Senior with dignity. Item III. To the Sophomores, the love which the faculty has for the Senior Class, and we hope that this bequest will inspire them to strive for a better behavior. Item IV. To the “Rats”, encouragement to persevere through the studies that look so difficult. Item V. We do furthermore make the following legacies. a. To Alfred McDonald, Helen Head’s prosperity of good marks. b. To Mary Ann Evans, Elaine Gidden’s dignity and poise. c. To Louise Dunlap, a few pounds reducing the weight of Mike Wright. d.

THE 1931 1 MOHIAN SENIOR CLASS HISTORY By HOWARD CORRY OUR CLASS’ PROGRESS (Apologies to Bunyan) The solitary and depressing little village, Ignorance, had no appeal for that ambi- tious band of Our Class pilgrims, who emigrated from its confining walls, despite certain inclinations and temptations to remain there. The objective of this pilgrim- age was to scale the plains of the mighty celestial city, Knowledge, towering high in the misty distance among the stately peaks of satisfaction, pride, and self-assurance. The worthy journey began early one morning in the year 1927, sponsored under the able tutelage of Mr. Hand. The trail taken led directly under the ancient tree, Mathematics, with its cubic roots and dry triangular leaves and still dryer square and circular limbs. Without warning this strange trap crashed upon the startled pilgrims who struggled many hours before extracting themselves with the timely aid of their compasses and rulers. The calm ingenious cunning English, and the intricate puzzles planned by nature’s daughter, Science, caused a veritable epidemic of writer’s cramps and headaches. Upon crossing the Slough of Foreign Languages the weight of their other burdens made the slippery vocabulary of mud prove very depressing before the sturdy banks of Vacation Shore was reached. A three months’ recuperation put the pilgrims in excellent condition to “squeeze through’’ the sharp irregular rocks and crags of Commercial Courses . A stalwart soldier, Ancient History, tried to check the pilgrims but their modern weapons marked the “passing’’ of him. Numerous other obstructions appeared but they were passed by pure determination. After nine weary months this campaign was brought to a rest by the new sponsor, Miss Chapman. The startling bells of the old castle, Junior Year, recalled the pilgrims to their trying task. Over-confidence proved fatal to large numbers of them who were caught in the ready traps of Chemical Formulas or stung by the venemous reptiles let out by the sly “Mr. W. W.” Biology. The Our Class pilgrimage appeared at the end of this nine month’s trudge with many vacant spaces in its ranks because of those whose fortune (or shall I say efforts) was not given a par rating. When the new sponsor, Miss Rothgeb, declared the customary three month’s vacation to her proteges, the annual sigh of pleasure was heard. Marked enthusiasm was seen among the pilgrims as they began their last and most hazardous lap of their worthy journey. Immediately their ground became shaky and uncertain as the baffling earthquake, Senior Subjects, cause many to lose their footing and fall back a whole year. However, with the sheepskin walls and the gay ribbons of the city, Knowledge, their noble objective, clearly within sight, and under the sponsorship of a military man, Mr. McGhee, they charged forward to success, the reward of their conscientious efforts. And with success comes her sister virtues: pride, satisfaction, and self-assurance. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY By ELLANOR QUACKENBUSH One fine spring morning as I was walking in the woods, I began to notice a gradual change in the atmosphere. I grew faint, and upon taking another step there appeared before me in a haze, three dirty hags dancing around a kettle suspended over a mysterious flame. As they danced, the old women sang, or rather screeched, two familiar lines— “Double, double, toil and trouble, Fire burn and cauldron bubble.” Where had I heard that haunting verse before? And those hags—ah! The three witches had stepped from the pages of “Macbeth.” They were preparing the cauldron for a prophecy. As I stood there, dumbstruck, one old woman spied me, and began to laugh, attracting the attention of the others. “What do you want?” asked the first witch of me in a high-pitched voice. “Oh, I, er—” I stammered. My ears burned, and I was at loss for words. “You want the prophecy of the 1931 Class of Murphy High,'’ she knew better than I. “Is the cauldron ready, sisters?” “Aye,” cried the other two. “The time has come!” With these words a dark- ness began to spread over the surroundings, and except for the low moans of the witches, all was quiet. Suddenly, as if out of the air, my friends of the ’31 class passed within my touch. I reached out, but the witches shook their heads and pointed to the first group. To my surprise I saw one who had always gone to school with me —Mary Lomax Stover—a famous concert pianist. My vision grew clearer, and be- hind her, in the same profession, were Elizabeth Tunnel, Ruth Lloyd, Edith Huston, and Elizabeth Belsher. They passed on and I saw the renowned opera star, Ruth Marriott. Harriet Casper was a blues singer in a Broadway night club, and her chorus consisted of Lucille Hancr, Naomi Hough, Virginia Wade, Virginia Dunlap, Lucy Baker, Adelaide Doster, Frances Sundberg, Evelyn Fleming, and Janet Olensky. My old pal, Annie Ruth Johnston, was planning a non-stop flight to Mars. A flock of teachers appeared, and I recognized Margaret Demeranville, Dorothy Layton, Cordelia Price-Williams, Prudence Moore, Grace Crenshaw, Anna Thompson, Mildred Smith, Betty Vaughn, Hazel Turner, Ruby Mashburn, I la Edwards, Ada Cubbage, and Dorothy Emert. Unexpectedly, I found myself in sunny California at the Fox Studios where Marion Tisdale was directing a picture featuring Zillah Paterson and Jack Hanley. Vivian Norden, Lucy Radcliff, Harold Irby, and Herndon Coate were mere extras. Making a comedy, I saw Charles Hutchinson with his beautiful leading lady, Maria Lyon. Stopping off in Los Angeles, I met the famous dancing masters, Johnny Cleveland and Tony Antonidis. Charles Arendall, rising criminal lawyer, was in the midst of an important case defending the notorious Scarface A1 Capone. Back to the Big City and on Broadway once again, I went to the opening of S. J. Loeb’s new theatre, “The Plaza.” Estes Baker, Fred Pennington, and John Spaulding played in the symphonic orchestra, and Annie Laurie Davis did a solo dance. A1 Stevens, I was told, had designed the costumes for the company. Alton Walker, now a bishop, was performing a marriage ceremony in the Little Church Around The Corner. The bride was Mary Bruister and the groom, of course, was Withers Houston. Agnes Torrey, Elaine Giddens, Ora Gates, George Thrasher, Gordon Hamilton, and James Mickle were the attendants. THE 1931 Brett Patton was the editor of the “Saturday Evening Post,” and I heard that Celestine Sibley, Billy Hansen, and David Gaillard were writers for the magazine. There were rumors that Kenneth Winter’s latest invention would bring him millions, and his protege. Edwin Pearson, was becoming world famous. Melvin Avinger and 'fed Tampary were doing research work in Germany. Another old friend, Margaret Taylor, was in Egypt hunting for old treasures in King Tut’s tomb. Elizabeth Smith, a dear little old lady, married to someone named Charlie, ran an orphan asylum. In Greenwich Village I found several artists—Marion Sundberg, George Weil, Doris Bishop, and Dixie Foster, and a couple of poets—J. C. Sanford and Maude Etta Graham. Leslie Biggs, Leroy Gaston, Theo Combel, Robert Smith, Ella Hess, Elmer Busby, Margaret Barry, Julius Webb, George Montgomery, Henry Bolling, Barry Hardy, Billy Sirmon, Lanier Angle, Joe Petty, Teddy Jones, Marion Adair, Robert String- fellow, and Aubrey Miller were New York-Paris mail pilots. A well known funeral director, Tony Clikas, employed Steve Wiatt, Oaty Tra- wick, William Elsevier, and Harry Tindell. Down in Palm Beach a golf tournament was being held between Stewart Thames and Pap Shearer. I did not find out who won because a stenographic convention attracted my attention. Ida Mae Touch- stone, Genevieve Tew, Elsa Eden, Willie Mae Gaston, Ethel Jackson, Mary Seale George, Virgie Nix, Frances Gabel, Martha Evans, Opal Brunson, Eleanor Jensen, Janice Jensen, Doris Smolkin, Marietta Pollard, Edna Taylor, Marion Muntz, Doris McNeill, Curtye Lee Jernigan, Genevieve Straughn, Thelma Flasch, Helen Brown, Evelyn Williams, Hazel Stallworth, Dot Fillette, and Leila Lee were attendants. Corinne Cook and Marguerite Haas had married titles, while Alice Jackson, Esther Lowrey, Lucille La Coste, and Leola Daugherty, who had fallen heiresses to fortunes, were wintering in Florida. LaVelle Richerson, I heard, just won the world championship in typing! Zodie Glover, Ada Coggin, Helen Sheffield, Clara Jenks, Hazel Gill, and Rosalie Donahue were models in a smart dress shop, while Mary B. Adams, Winifred Webb, Dot Alonzo, Emilie Boudousquie, Lucretia Maxfield, Martha Luetje, June Taylor, Ethel Constantine, Annie Barnes, Marie Ballard, and Edwina Morton, posed for artists. Among the merchants I saw Otis Bancroft, Russell Wright, Kimball McRae, Wesley Blalack, Bill Beckham, Leland Gibson, Ed King, Bill Suffich, Tom Walton, Lucian Lytz, Byron Hess, Walter Beckham, Herbert Shroeter, Marshall Seifert, and Morris Miller. Audhild Larsen, Leila Freeman, Mary L. Williamson, and Myrtle Sprinkle were salesgirls. Coralic Corkran and Bertha Daugherty, after having invented a new telescope, I found making studies of the Milky Way. A great vision came before my eyes and I saw Miriam Gibson, and Maxine Gonzalas, assisted by Ruth Green, Elizabeth Hamilton, and Lenna Mae Harold man- aging the M. H. S. cafeteria. Much to my surprise J. R. Stinson was principal of Murphy, and Joe Langan was football coach. Helen Hill, who ran a laundry, had in her employ Gladys Spenser, Thelma Petry, Adelaide Santerre, Elsie Collier, Maude D. Byrd, Pauline Bethany, Verna Booker, Willie Berman, Mary Grimes, and James Andress. The Mobile Infirmary’s staff of nurses was as follows: Dot Newton, Alice Hurlbert, Claire Sherman, Anna M. Clolinger, Helen Klaas, Janice Fry, and Caroline Marriott. Petrina Jetmundsen, who owned a dramatic school, was seen with Helen Head, a press reporter, and Ed Prewitt, a singing master.

(Continued in advertising section) THE 1931 1 rvlOM I A.N 1DHAT IS SUCCESS? It’s doing your job the best you can, And being just to your fellow-man; It’s making money, but holding friends And staying true to your aims and ends; It’s figuring how and learning why, And looking forward and thinking high And dreaming a little and doing much; It’s keeping always in closest touch With what is finest in word and deed; It’s being thorough, yet making speed. It’s daring blithely the field of chance While making labour a brave romance: It’s going onward despite defeat, And fighting staunchly, but keeping sweet: It’s being clean and it’s playing fair; It’s laughing lightly at I)ame Despair; It’s looking up at the stars above. And drinking deeply of life and love; It’s struggling on with the will-to-win, But taking loss with a cheerful grin; It’s sharing sorrow, and work, and mirth, And making better this good old earth; It’s serving, striving through strain and stress, It’s doing your noblest—that’s Success. —Dr. Johnson in “The Rambler.” y-j « MM NVIMOIkN f gggjpgfiiJJT' l£6l 3H1 B-6ST S-€I1I0(L BOV c i t i z-6 n KT iriP jumunD5 n b s t s n i o n 6IR.L cmz-en irmRY BRU1ST-6R.

SITZ—Assistant Football Coach J. H. GREER—Baseball Coach A. F. McGHEE, Jr.—Basket Ball Coach; Assistant Football Coach J. C. VAUGHAN—Manager W. S. HAND—Manager thmb THE 1931 1 MOH IAN LETTER MEN CAPTAIN ROY “UNC” PISTOLE (End and Quarterback—two years) An end, quarterback or ‘‘what have you,”—that was Captain Roy Pistole, two- year All-Southern star. For two seasons this package of “T. .N. T.” was probably the greatest defensive man on the squad and lought from the starting whistle to the end of each fray. Lucky will be the col- lege that gets Roy. ALTERNATE CAPTAIN EDMUND “TUBBY” DYAS (Guard and Halfback—two years) Nearly a season passed before Dyas found himself in '29, that being against G. C. M. A., but from then until he closed out his career for Murphy, he plowed through every line for regular gains and when it came to a question of blocking kicks, Ed had the goods. Ed’s graduation will mean a serious blow. • T. M. “OTEY” WALKER (Guard—two years) There was never a problem to get a hole through the right side of the line with “Otey” on duty; in fact the openings looked more like a hurricane path. That’s why he was chosen as the most valuable lineman by the students. Opponents have another year of trouble with “Otey” as he is only a junior, but what a junior. DARWIN MONK” PENNINGTON (Halfback—two years) This is not Darwin’s theory, but we be- lieve this southpaw could drive a line, nab a pass, or tackle with the best of them. Had he not fumbled so often in the early part of ’30, doubtless he would have be- come an All-State man, and with two years of experience, this versatile halfback re- turns to the Blue and Gold in '31. THE 1931 4 MOMIAN RUSSELL “SKITTLE TOP MOLPUS (Tackle—two years) Russell was the plural of tackle. In fact, he drew more than twice as many votes for All-City tackle as any other contender, quite a feat, yet that fails to tell the story of his ability and courage. The tall, rangy tackle saw more service than any other member of the squad this season and showed why Coach Dobbins kept him in there on every play. Why shouldn’t we smile? Molpus has two more years to ma- ture here. JULIUS SITTERLE (Tackle—two years) When this lumbering 188 pound tackle closed in on a ball carrier it was “Good- night and hello” for the opponent. In fact, during this two years of varsity serv- ice when ever a few yards were needed the play generally went through a hole opened by him. Graduation again claims a star. DAVID SMITH (Tackle and End—two years) If Smith could have kept cleats out of his face and not bumped into so manv goal posts he wouldn’t have been injured so often, but while in the game, the stocky lineman showed real class. Against Pen- sacola in ’29, Smith first starred and from then on it was expected of him. He is one of the thirteen returning lettermen for the ’31 team. AUBREY “MAC” McDONALD (End—two years) Another fighting Irishman, and although “Mac” was ineligible in ’29, he came back in ’30 to blaze the gridiron after a year layoff. An injured side gave him plenty of trouble, but “Mac” never gave up, anil graduation claims a real fighter. m THE 1931 i MOh IAN RIO ‘•FOOTS” RUBIRA (Fullback) One of Spring Hill’s great contributions to the ’30 football team. Weighing only 12G pounds most opponents thought he was a set up. Against Leroy he raced 63 yards, and against Wrights he cut loose for two runs of long distances. His de- fensive work was spectacular and the swivel-hipped agent could run through the best of lines. You’ll see more of him next year. JOHN MOSS (Center—End—Quarterback) A jack of all positions and master of them. It was John’s senior year before he blossomed into the player he was reck- oned as. Once started he never ceased and the 128 pound star could be depended upon at any time. • WITHERS HOUSTON (Fullback) Few better defensive backs have ever donned the Blue and Gold than Houston, who, in his senior year, rounded into a star until injuries forced him out of the pic- ture in the middle of the season. Houston’s greatest games were against Jackson and Ensley. • CHARLIE “BIGUN” WILLCOX (End) His 130 pounds of weight never counted near so much as his pluck and determina- tion during the grinding moments of the games, and few were the ball carriers who got around his end. Pass catching, tack- ling, and blocking kicks were his favorite tasks. Another season on the grid will make Charlie one of the greatest flankmen in the history of the school. -jjp- tViOM I A.N KENNETH SAYERS (Guard) Kenneth got a break when Brewton was injured and made the best of it. He could block with the best of them and his kick- offs generally fell near the goal-line. Al- though he lacked experience, his willing- ness made him a regular. He is due for a great season next session. H. E. BREWTON (Guard) A crushed finger cut short Brewton’s performance, during this year, but dur- ing his four games opposing lines regarded him as one of the hardest charging guards they had ever faced. Pensacola backs found a real obstacle in their way when they started over Brewton’s side. Two more years are ahead of Brewton to ac- complish greater things. • ROLAND MOLPUS (Tackle) _ Another of the Molpus brothers making history at Murphy and from the calibre of Roland’s tackling it seems that within the next two years he will write a history of his own. Even Lanier could not get far over Roland. PETE “RABBI” PETRO (Guard) It was Pete’s ambition to play the back- field but Coach Dobbins found in him a dandy guard who could repel most anv charge and there he made his “M”. Potro saw considerable service, generally subbing when the opposing team began gaining over guard. EDWIN “PEAHEAD” PEARSON (End) And end he was—remember the Spring Hill game when he pulled in a pass over the goal to tie the score and his other catches were no less important. Aside from that his tackling and blocking were val- uable assets to the team. A great end for graduation to take. THE 1931 4 rvfOMIAIM FRED KERSTING (Guard—Tackle) You never heard a word from Kersting but a grunt generally rose from the men he tackled. Fred missed the first half of the season because of a crushed hand but starting against Biloxi, he proved his worth; now with a year’s experience watch him shine next season. LYMAN “LYMIE” OWEN (Center) His play though never sensational was always good enough to warrant him a var- sity berth. Only once during the season did he pair with a center of his weight, often facing pivot men from 50 to 75 pounds heavier than he. Lyman is the only returning center for ’31 service. JOE LANGAN (Center) Injuries forced Joe out of the picture in ’29 but he came back strong during the past season to make his letter. Although his play toward the end of the season never reached the scale of the first of the year, he was on the firing line quite often and gave what he had. • J. C. MILLER (Tackle) Thoroughly experienced while playing two years at Evergreen, Miller broke into the limelight at the start of the season and until he suffered a broken leg against Biloxi, he was a real bulwark in the line, smothering plays on the defense in easy fashion and wont down fighting against the Redskins. Now that the leg is well, the fans will be watching for him when the season starts next year. BERT “RED” BODDEN (Halfback) A dependable ground gainer but better at blocking and pass catching, Bert showed that the public is not after blondes or bru- nettes, but that redheads will do if they can play football—Red can. Another year on the varsity means a lot to him. ■m Reueiu; of Football Season Weathering: attack after attack, often yielding: before enemy fire. Coach Dob- bins’ Murphy High Panthers brought a none too successful season on the gridiron to a close on November 29 when they romped to victory over the Wrights’ Cadets to retain the City championship cup. In nine clashes the Blue and Gold emerged with three victories, one draw, and five scars of defeat. Starting against the Leroy Tigers by battering out a 24 to 0 victory the Pan- thers seemed bound for a great year. In this battle Rio Rubira, versatile fullback, eluded the Leroy tacklers for a 62 yard run for touchdown for the most sensational dash of the season. Captain Roy Pistole also did a bit of work when he plunged two touchdowns over and Pennington crashed over guard for another six-pointer. In the second engagement, against the Jackson Aggies on October 4, an aval- anche of touchdowns by the fighting Panther backs brought an inspiring 37 to 6 vic- tory. The Aggies threatened only twice during the entire battle, once when Jacobs intercepted a pass and scored. The driving of Dyas, Pennington, and Houston was a constant obstacle in the way of the strong invading eleven. The tackling and block- ing of Molpus, Walker, Sitterle, and Willcox easily repelled the strongest line thrusts of Jackson. Jacobs, Prim, and Bolen starred for the visitors. Next came the fast Tigers from Pensacola High who eked out a 6 to 0 victory over the Panthers a year previous and duplicated their past performance when Billy Pfeiffer circled right end for touchdown. Pennington foiled Maxwell’s «ttempt for extra point. In the second quarter Pennington broke away for a thrilling 55 yard run starting on a delayed buck over right guard, and going to the nine yard run line before being downed. Yet the needed punch was lacking. McDonald, Owen, Pen- nington, and Dyas were the Blue and Gold’s strongest trouble-makers, while Trawick, Sweeney, Blount, Maxwell, and Pfeiffer led the winners attack. Against the Biloxi Indians, whatever strength the Panther possessed, was inert. Led by the flashy running of Captain Chester Juanico, Harold and Bartlo Hunt, and Graham, the Warriors ran and passed their way to a 25 to 0 victory. The “Big 8’’ champions easily avenged their defeat at the hands of the Panthers a year previously, the only set back they received in three years. Wholly outsmarted on both offense and defense the Panthers resolved to a punting duel throughout with Pistole having a slight edge. Dyas’ driving, Russell Molpus’ tackling, and the guard work of Kersting and Walker accounted for Murphy’s strength while Saxon, Hunt, Juanico, Graham, and Gautier stood out for Biloxi. Invading Birmingham on October 25 for a chance at the Ensley Yellowjackets, the Panthers’ running attack failed to click with any precision against Coach DeYampert’s charges. Twice the speedy Ensley backs crashed over the scoring line and added one point to swell their total to 13 points while the Panthers were held scoreless. The stellar defensive work of Withers Houston, Pistole, and Pennington, the running of Rubira and Dyas, and the line work of Willcox, Walker, Sitterle, and Molpus kept the Yellowjackets on the lookout. Walker, Stapp, Anderson, and Ellis proved too strong to hold in check. THE 1931 | MOH IAN After bowing three consecutive times the Panthers opened their intra-city cam- paign against the Spring Hill Baby Badgers on November 1. The Hillians were rated as a far better outfit than the Blue and Gold troupe since four regulars were out with injuries. Early in the first quarter the Badgers broke away to score when McDonnell went over right tackle. Dyas knotted the count for Murphy when he crashed through center. Pearson took a pass from Pistole in the third quarter to put Murphy into the lead but the elusive Roscoe Roy wriggled free from the six yard line to score and bring the count to a 12-12 standing. The work of Rubira, Pistole, Dyas, Willcox, and Pearson featured the Panthers’ drive. McDonnell, the Roy brothers, Levet and Douville starred for the Hill. The “Blue Torrent” of Sidney Lanier High, outweighing the Panthers over twenty pounds per man battered the forward wall for a touchdown in the second quarter and held Murphy in check to annex a 6 to 0 victory. Early in the first quarter the Panthers threatened when Rubira carried the ball to the 18 yard line but the moving mountains mowed the Panther backs down without further damage. Joe Cardwell, Dennis, Kilgrow, Cook, and Brown, starred for Lanier with Pistole, Dyas, Rubira, Pennington, and Russell Molpus shining for Murphy. Featuring a superb passing attack, far stronger than any Murphy has ever been called upon to check, the G. C. M. A. Cadets trounced the Panthers to a tune of 18 to 6, on November 22. Captain George Gorman figured indirectly in every touch- down of the Cadets. Connors and Borne also scored during the melee. The only Panthers touchdown came when Pistole crossed on a quarterback sneak. Sayers, Mc- Donald, Dyas, Pennington, and Pistole fought gallantly in the face of defeat with winning honors going to Morris, Borne, Guepet, and Connors. On November 29 the Panthers brought their season to a close against the Wrights Bulldogs. New found life sent the Blue and Gold to victory, their first since October. Three times the powerful line plays sent the ball into the neutral zone and each time John Moss converted to give the Panthers a 21 to 0 lead at the end. With Rio Rubira starring again on both offense and defense the Panthers lead was never threatened. Once Rubira was away on a 57 yard jaunt and later scored on a 23 yard run. Dyas ripped the light Bulldog line for two touchdowns. Calvin Rogers, 123 pound halfback of the Cadets punted once for 71 yards for a feature in itself. The Cadets could not register a first down against the Blue and Gold while Coach Dobbins’ outfit rung up five frist downs. Willcox, Smith, Molpus, Sitterle, Walker, Pistole, Moss and Rubira shared the victory in grand style with Rutherford, Haas, Grayson, West, and Lanaux the Cadets chief threats, i THE 1931 4 MOhlAN THE 1931 | MOMIAN ' ▼ !] fTTn -. TOP ROW: Reed, Allen, Parker, Porter, Thames, Geary, Perez, Wilson, Coach McGhee. KNEELING: Molpus, Gomez, Owen, Hester, Moss, Walker. BASKETBALL With a new gymnasium unit completed at a cost of, approximately, one fourth million dollars, Murphy’s basketball representative for the season of 1931 was the first losing team turned out here in many seasons Yet, defeats never left the crimson stain which generally remains after the smurge of losing has taken its toll. First, because there were no lettermen returning for Coach McGhee to form a nucleus of a team to defend the district championship which was awarded the “Golden Panthers” in ’30. Second, because the new gym was completed only one day before the playing season began. But, faced with such shortcomings, Coach McGhee sent a quickly selected five against Citronelle on January 16, in the dedication game of the wonderful plant, only to see the invading five take all-4 decision. In the last minute, Carlos Gomez broke loose to score both Murphy field goals and save them the humiliation of being shut out. The next day McGill Institute added a 25-1 victory over McGhee’s outfit. Char- lie Willcox sank; a free toss to again stave off whitewash. An elapse of four days gave the Panthers ample time to adopt a passing attack which carried them triumphantly over the Wrights “Cadets” in the first meeting 13-10. Johnny Moss, Willcox, and Gomez added the needed punch. .................................. ty s THE 1931 4 MOHIAN Next came the Foley “Lions” who battered out a 25-8 victory in an interesting game, filled with remarkable plays by Joe Gallagher and Verne Underwood of Foley, and Owen and Geary of Murphy. Theodore was next to reap a victory over the “Goal Diggers,” taking an 18-9 decision when Golden and McConnell went on a scoring splurge. Coach Frank Reese’s Spring Hill “Baby Badgers crashed out a 23-15 verdict when the Panthers’ defense failed to hold in the last quarter. McGill shut out the McGhee machine 11-0 in the next game, while Thurston Adam’s Foley team doubled back to take a 32-24 victory from the “Goal Diggers” on their home court. Coach Julius Dale’s Bay Minette team took a 35-26 scoring melee from the Murphy representatives at Bay Minette. The Hill “Badgers” were relentless in their drive and on February 6, counted a 15-11 triumph in the second meeting. And then another victory for the Panthers, again over the Wrights Cadets, by a score of 11-8 in a slow, drawn-out affair. Moss, Thames, and Walker led the winners’ attack while Bulwinkle showed up well for the Cadets. On February 13, the Sidney Lanier “Poets” took a double header from the “Goal Diggers” by scores of 35-17 and 31-15. McGill followed with a 20-7 victory, but the Jackets were held without a field goal during the second half. Citrone'.le won a second game 23-12 in a listless manner. Until this time the Panthers’ attack had failed to function, but like a bolt it broke when against the Wrights Cadets they took the third game 25-16, followed closely by an 18-15 vicory over Spring Hill. The Bay Minette team fell in rapid- fire order to a well-timed passing attack 21-15. Grand Bay wilted 19-10. Entering the county tournament, the Panthers were not reckoned as a serious contender, but brushed aside the Grand Bay team 26-13 when a rally in the last half proved too powerful to overcome. However, the string of victories was to be broken, and Tanner-Williams achieved the distinction by eliminating the “Goal Diggers” 18-10 in semi-finals. PANTHERS NOT IN DISTRICT MEET For the first time in many seasons the Murphy team was not invited to partici- pate in the district tournament which was held at Evergreen, and which was won by Coffeeville and Bay Minettee. Coach Dale waived his rights to Foley, who along with Coffeeville, saw the first district hopes blasted when they were annihilated in the preliminary play of the state meeting. Geraldine High succeeded Huntsville High as state champs.

In ’30 Coach Henry Greer piloted the Panthers to their second successive city championship. From that squad are only four who are making the team this year. Buddy Mc- Donald is making his third “M” while Hallett McDonough and Marion Adair are earn- ing their second stripe. Darwin “Monk” Pennington, southpaw pitcher, first baseman, and outfielder, returned to the fold after being ineligible for a season and will doubt- less better his record of seven victories set in ’29. In ’£0 the Panthers were defeated only once in the city, that being when Herbert West mastered the Greer machine 5-4 in a thrill packed contest. Bay Minette High battered out a victory when extra base outs buzzed hither and yon. Three victories over Spring Hill, McGill, and two over Wrights were the total city results with a pair of aces resulting over Robertsdale and evening the count against Bay Minette later. The Biloxi Indians forced the Panthers through eleven innings to a 7-7 draw and after taking a four run lead in another game, rain forced a halt. Several classy ball players were graduated in June. Emanuel “Dynamite” Thomp- son closed out an eventful two year career; Pitchers Marion “Tut” Wynne and George Shearer passed from the picture after two years while Raymond Floyd closed out his work with one stripe. Jerome McKinstry finished at the end of one season at first base while William McDonough, the league’s leading batsman, closed out his work on the hot corner. In the outerfield, Raymond Smith, Jack Davis, Kennie Kidd and R. L. Jensen wrote finis to their prep work after great showings.

MOHIAN REPORTER INTERVIEWS BILL SHAKESPEARE (Special by leased horn, rented from Gabriel) Stratford-on-Avon or on toast, whichever you prefer. Anglica,—Time: Uncertain. Well, hello fellow suckers, I have just had the misfortune to interview William— Macbeth—Shakespeare, and I’m here to tell you he doesn’t approve of the 19th amendment. Of course, you all will have to understand that Bill is a hard nut when it comes to fretting him to answer questions. Now here’s the way this went: Mohian Reporter (which is me): Hello, Mr. Shakespeare, how’s your ma’s son? Bill: Oh, I can’t kick. M. R.: What’s the matter? Got the rheumatism? B. S.: Listen, none of your dumb chatter. I get enough of that from my ball and chain. M. R.: What do you think of woman suffrage? B. S.: My wife don’t allow me to have no thoughts about it, but that just goes to show you what the little girls’ll do if you give’em enough rope. M. R.: Listen, I thought you talked in blank verse. B. S.: Blankety blank, no, nor no other kind of blankety blanked verse. M. R.: Why, what’s ailing you, Bill? B. S.: Aw, I’ve been half nuts since just before I started on Macbeth. M. R.: (aside) I thought so! (to B. S.) What ever made you write Macbeth? B. S.: Well, these here city officials thought up an idea as how every man, woman, child, half wit, artist, author, and other lunatics, and violent people such as teachers should pay five (5) simoleons, bucks, frogskins, or what have you? M. R.: (like peddler) Potatoes! Apples! Pineapples! Bananas! B. S.: Shut up! Who stepped on you? Well, each of these various and sundry types of animal, crocodile, and other undesirable forms of living protoplasm should pay this every year and this was called head tax. So I got out my little Austin. You know, the one which I was lost in. Oh, I am getting better hurray! Maybe I’ll get better ev’ry day. M. R.: I hope not! If that is the way you get better. Come on, Willy, tell me about Macbeth. B. S.: Of course, this is very private, and you mustn’t tell a single intelligent person about this. M. R.: Don’t worry, none of them Murphy students is intelligent. B. S.: Yes, I sort of thought that myself, from looking at you. M. R.: Ah! Don’t flatter me like that! What was that you said about Macbeth? B. S.: That was a brainstorm. Well, here goes, since there was so many divorces and breach of promise suits going on, I decided to write a wholesale gang murder and sewer side story that would make the front page of all the newspapers. M. R.: Oh, yes? Well, all you made was the schoolbooks. B. S.: Oh, death, where is thy sting? M. R.: Hence, loathed Melancholy, Of Blackest Midnight and sad Shakespeare born. In Stratford home forlorn. B. S.: Can the slang! Can’t you hear me elucidating about Macbeth? M. R.: I wouldn’t if I was you. B. S.: Exeunt fool. THE 1931 MOMIAN M. R.: Just one more question. What made you call one of your plays “As You Like It”? B. S.: That’s sarcasm, you unlettered rustic. Now, get out!!! EXTRACTS FROM THE LIFE OF CHRISTOPHER COLUM3US A VERY WELL KNOWN MAN “Some few years before America was discovered there was born in Italy a little Dago, whose name was Christopher. When he had graduated at the Genoa High School, with the highest honors, he wanted to enter the army, but after reaching West Point it was found that his eyes were too bad for him to enter either the army or the navy. At the time of his graduation at the high school he was said to be the greatest checker player of the day, which was going some. Chris, wanting some adventure, hopped on an out-bound freight train and beat his way to Spain. His old school chum. Ferdinand—then King of Spain—sent for him ana to.a him he wanted him to come over here and discover America. He said: ‘Chris, since you used to be an old sweetheart of Isabelle’s, which would you rather have, a ship as big and as powerful as the Leviathan, or three small sailing vessels?’ And Chris, wanting some excitement, took the three small vessels. His cargo consisted of one ship-load of Dr. Pepper, doughnuts, Dr. Pepper, and a few barrels of Dr. Pepper. The other two ships were filled with cheese, crackers, and canary birds, on nis stop at .he Canary Islands. He set sail just three days after he was divorced from a beautiful actress. Once during the night he heard a noise which frightened him greatly, but rushing to his private balcony, he discovered that it was a school of fish giving their yells. After a pleasant trip of three weeks and fourteen days, he landed at Monroe Park on Thanksgiving Day, in time to see the footba.l game between U. M. S. and M. H. S. He enjoyed the game very much, and in the last half of the ninth inning he became greatly excited when M. H. S.’s quarter back, Johnny Moss, got away from the players and made a spectacular run of half a mile, winning the game. After sending a cablegram to Ferd and sweet little Isabelle about the game, he took in the sights of the country. “After a while he went back to Spain and told them that this was a fine country in which to start a settlement. So the king sent over a colony of Mobile and Ohio workmen and founded the prosperous city of Whistler. This happened a long time ago.”—M.M.I.

There is too much publicity attached to it. What grounds have you got for a divorce? What would Octavia do? And don’t forget Octavia is a sister of Caesar. Now tell me just what you would do? Anth: Now, Cleo, we’ve been over that a thousand times. We won’t say any more about it. But I’ve never seen such a stubborn woman in all my life as you are, and Baby I’ve been around. Cleo: Oh yes, you’re so wonderful, I suppose you think I should be satisfied to marry you and go back to Rome with you and see that dumb vaudeville in the Coliseum THE 1931 MOMIAN every night. Don’t be a juvenile. Enter Charmian Char: Madam, the young man whom you told Diomedes to bring around is outside waiting to see you. Cleo: (Aside to Charmian) You idiot, get out of here. Exit Charmian Anth: So, you still have a weakness for all of the handsome young men in the city? Cleo: Don’t try to be funny, my younger brother went to college with this boy, and he is on his way to Rome, so I thought I should be nice to him. Anth: Well, I guess I had better be going. Exit Anthony Cleo: (As he goes out the door) Cheer up, I might change my mind. Iras, Iras, come here. Enter Iras Cleo: Get out my best rags; I’ve got some date to-night. Hurry, and I don’t mean perhaps. Exit Iras and Cleopatra Scene II. Another Room in the Palace Anthony and Cleopatra are in a heated argument. Cleo: No, I haven’t changed my mind. Anth: All right, I guess you mean it. Cleo: V es, I do, but don’t look like you are contemplating suicide or something des- perate. I heard last night that Caesar is coming down here. Is that just a first rate press agent or the naked truth? Anth: Yes, he’s coming. Don’t act like you didn’t know it, either. I know damn well why you won’t change your mind now. Cleo: Now don't be silly, I don’t even know Caesar. Anth: Well, I’ll bet you an emerald necklace that Caesar is coming down here to propose to you. Cleo: Oh, is that so? Well Big Boy, I’ll take you up on that. Now run on home and save your money. Exit Anthony Cleo: Iras, come here. Enter Iras Cleo: Listen, did you know that Caesar is coming down here? Iras: Yes, madam, and I also heard he was the most wonderful type. You know type. Cleo: Oh, this is terrible. Iras, after you give Venus and Adonis their bath, please bring them in my room. Iras: Yes madam Exit Ira (In a few minutes she returned with a large silk basket) Cleo: That will be all, and when Anthony comes to night, give him this letter. Exit Iras Cleo: Get out of that basket you glorified neckers and help this little working girl along. (She reaches into the basket and pulls out two asps.) Come on Adonis and do your stuff. (After one of them bites her, she falls on the couch and dies) Scene III. Another Room in the Palace Anthony and Iras are standing and Anthony is reading the note. Anth: But Iras I can’t understand, what does this mean? (Gives the note to Iras.) Iras: “Big Boy, I haven’t changed my mind, and don’t forget my necklace.” Anth: Well I’ll be damned.

I recognized William Westbrook working for the incinerator department; Theron Combel, a truck driver; Terry Reynolds, Howard Wilber, and Orville Stone, city commissioners; Harry Brook, a prosperous bootlegger; Mike Wright, a light-weight boxer. Russell Sciple, I discovered, had been an architect for Mobile’s new thirty-six story hotel, and John Moss, L. P. Lud- vigsen, Woodie Hamilton, Dudley Bolton. Frank Crow, and Roy Athey were workmen who helped build our first skyscraper. Arnold Dahlgren, James Holder, and Walter were mechanics for the Jasper Adams Motor Co., and Bert Bodden was managing Hammel's. Francis Meyers was a dairyman, while M. 1. Cook, Waldorf Scott, Beach Dix, Ed. Dyas, Browne Mercer, and Louis McKay worked in the Wimpee-Bean Grocery Co. Among the engineers I saw as electrical engineers Rit Smith, George Bowab, Owen Gaston, and Frank Folmar; John Hightower, Beverley Christy, Willard Hester, Harold Allen, Philip Huff, and Fred Lawton appeared to be chemical engineers. Fred Muths and John Johansen, civil engineers, had just completed a bridge across Dauphin Island. The Battle House, under the management of Frank Camp, employed as maids Velma Rollings, Bernice Coleman, Orlean Kelley, Frieda Maisel, and Virginia Addi- son. William White, a plastic surgeon, was making Eugenia Of ford, Rogene Miller, Mildred Clayton, Nellie Judge, and Estelle McCrary more beautiful in the Joseph Lawrence Beauty Shoppe, where Mary Inez Kyle, Margaret Russell, Katherine Colvin, and Eulalie Layton were employed. I was surprised to find how rapidly Mobile had grown. The Adair Bottling Co. employed several ’31 grads—Ed. Toomer, Moody Robinton, Albert Jaet, Norman Foster, and Billy Semple. T. J. Wood was attempting to eliminate the odors from the Eastburn-Pope Paper Mill, which gave work to Gladden Boone, Hallet McDonough, Julius Sitterle, James May, James Edwards, Clinton Agee, and George Yeend. Hyndman Novelty Co., which sold everything from a ribbon to a rug, hired Maudie Lea Aikins, Margaret McConaghy, Mary Kirkwood, Maurice Glass, and Edith Wheeler. Caret Van Antwerp, owner of Van Antwerp’s Drug Store, employed Walter Ogburn, C. P. Barnett, John Geary, and Chauncey Williams. Gertrude McCorquodale, Dot McAuley, Grace Floyd, Bernice Spafford, Lucille Jensen, Nathalie Sanders, Margaret Orr, Clara Fox, and Ruth Elk had formed an Old Maids’ Society, but Alva Hawkins, Dorothy Lord, Mary Wolfe, Betty Sadler, Pauline Thompson, Rose Herrin, and Marion Mastin were married and settled down. Mary Leila Williamson, Willie Mae Weidemann, Catherine McGovern, Orline Lloyd, Oleta Rountree, and Mellanee Powell were the season’s debutantes. ]iiiiiiiiiiiiC)iiiiiwitiit}iiiiiimiiic:iiiiiiiunniiiiimmi{:iiiimiimc)iiiim;tiioi'?!!t:i:i:2:. :n: Haas Bros.

It was a close race between Karl Self and Claude Christy to succeed Grady Flynn as president. Lowrey Haynie was running against Everett Barnes for governor. Maude Ballard, a happy-go-lucky girl, was selling tickets at the Marshall Fort (once the Saenger), and Aubrey McDonald, Arnold Dupree, Leslie Seigclman, Francis O’Rourke, Albert Gaston, Arthur Green, Harry Green, Howard Corry, and Harry Gor- don were ushers in the theatre A taxi drive sped by—Harry Heiter—with Zora Obie Jones, who I discovered was the betrothed of Ralph McDole. A new radio station, B.U.N.K., was celebrating its first anniversary. The an- nouncer, Charles McLean, was introducing the Immortal Trio—Lillian Fenn, Vera Dulaney, and Edna Blake— who entertained during the Cecil Womack Coffee pro- gram. The station, situated in the John Nash Hotel, was owned by Louis Enslen, Irccl Harrison, Donald McGrew, Junius Morrill, and Leslie Biggs. Just as this vision passed away, a new Cord roadster whizzed by. I caught a glimpse of Evelyn Drummond, wife of the famous financier, Philip Pfaffman. Things began to get a little mixed up, but I managed to recognize Jessie Lee Berry, a palmist, Michael Drashman, a chiropractor, Reba Kurtz, an illustrator, Sadie Lubel, a violinist, and Bertha Holley and Joe Friedlander, biologists. Ernest Glennon was working on a plan of his that controlled the weather, and Leonard Fagerstrom was firing boilers in the Alan Evans office building. In Washington, D. C., Hunter Murrill was Secretary of War; Raymond Nolfe, attorney general; and Una McAuley, Secretary of Interior. Marie Ballard was fa- mous for having invented an electrical “maid of all work.” Mabel Smith, Ouida Heath, Katie Miller, Elizabeth Wallace, Minnette McConaghy, and Lydia Pruitt seemed to be jerking soda in the Jacob’s Drug Store. James Lee and Floyd Johnson were revising Mr. Webster's dictionary, putting in all of the latest slang expressions. As each old classmate passed on, the next grew more indistinct, and Sara Pierce, Elizabeth Wiggins, and Carol Hess, cartoonists, could hardly be recognized. As the last lights faded, I saw George Collins and Willard Burns, a couple of hobos. I sighed, and on turning for a last glance, I perceived myself, a writer, sitting near a trash basket which was overflowing with—just what? ❖J 5 5 3IIIIIIIIIIIIC3I COMPLIMENTS OF GUS LONG FRUITS, GROCERIES, VEGETABLES 1300 SPRINGHILL AVENUE DEXTER 3221 IC3lltllli:illlC3l HIIIIIIIIIIIIC3I MAYTIME IS PLAYTIME!

In creating this splendid unit they have made it possible for you to develop stamina and strength, and to enjoy greater physical welfare. Yet exercise alone will not build a perfect body or insure permanent health. Your diet deserves equal consideration. And the foundation of every sane, health-building diet is pure, wholesome Bread. This means SMITH’S BREAD. Established in Mobile for over 31 years Smith’s Bakery products have been a tribute to public welfare. Eat Smith’s Bread! There’s no finer Bread baked on the face of the earth. When next passing Dauphin and Hallett Streets stop—come in—visit this Bakery. Here you will see how the very best Bread is Baked.
