U 428 .N6 C9 J 937 North Georgia College, Cyclops 11076 FOREWORD We have earnestly endeavored to give you a summary of the year 1937 at North Georgia College, and to leave you a pictorial record of as many as possible of the events of the year, both everyday affairs and unusual happenings over which to reflect in after years, when you look back on these as those good old days. We have not used a theme in the true sense of that word, but on the division pages we have placed pictures of some of the unforgettable parts of your life here. Are they incongruous? We think not, but it is now for you to judge. THE EDITOR 19 ♦ CYCLOPS ♦ 37 ' AicalL caiian To Sergeant Richard S. McConnell, a gentleman, leader, and soldier, we dedicate this 1937 CYCLOPS. A man in every sense of the word and a graduate of this Institution, he possesses to the very utmost, and instills into every Freshman, that fine sense of school-spirit and school pride which has always been so characteristic of North Georgia College. It is in recognition of these and his many other fine qualities that we respectfully dedicate this annual to him. 7 North Georgia College Library Dahlonega, Qa- -i rr ' ' f ' T ' ' . CONTENTS J lie L i}Ueae yi ilUtutu K ' caanLTati iyn cz LllLelLCJ 7i LHte 1 9 CYCLOPS 3 7 cm North Georgia ' s proud boast, The West Point of Georgia, is more significant than superficial thought reveals. West Point is much more than the nation ' s Military Academy; it is an educa- tional institution of highest rank, and there is doubtless no school in America that maintains more difficult academic standards. It demands also social graciousness, high honor and loyalty and character above reproach. The historic aspiration of North Georgia has been high, and to attain and maintain it calls for a steadfast devotion in each generation of students, not only to the re- quirements of military technique, but to all these other elements that make a nation, a college or an individual great. The task and joy of accomplishing this is the privilege of students and faculty alike; it is a difficult ideal to reach, but through daily co-operation and devotion to highest duty it can be done. Shall we all enthusiastically seek thus to enrich our college and our personal life? J. C. ROGERS, President. 1 9 CYCLOPS ♦ 37 FACULTY F. ANGLESBURG Director of the Band A. M. CAIN, A.B., A.M.

C The true spirit of American patriotism rests in the hi3h ideals manifested by the Corps of Cadets in the R. O. T. C. unit at North Georsia College. The Military organization strives to promote in an organized manner feelings of courtesy, habits of discipline, poise of mind and body, and respect for constituted authority. A thorough system of training is thus prepared by Major James E. Matthews, P. M. S. T., and Sergeant Richard S. McConnell, Assistant P. M. S. T., along with the attributes of the cadet officers and non-commissioned officers. This J most efficient staff, and that of the past, has won for North Georgia College the rank of Excellent for the past nine years, upholding her undisputed title, Georgia ' s West Point.

For the first time since its organization in 1934 the Speech Forum this year sponsored a series of debates with other colleges in the state. The bi- weekly meetings consist of several impromptu, as well as prepared speeches, each being followed by a constructive and critical discussion. Membership in the Forum is open to all cadets; however, by attendance rules, it is rather restricted to those genuinely interested in public speaking. This makes it one of the most effective organizations on the campus. The debating team consisted of the following: James Brown, Roy Cousins, Charles Porter, Bradley Ragan, and hi. F. hiarrison.

Since that tinne it has functioned as an honorary society; the dramatic minded stu dents participatin3 in plays from time to time. The club has not only been a help to the members, but also to the college. It presents three plays during the year; one in the first quarter and two in the last quarter. The purpose of the club is to give the members the experience of participating in the plays, and to maintain for the college a drama consciousness. ' MEMBERS FRANCES CORRy W. H.

Much progress was made during the year and it shows great promise of being a leading sport in years to come. Five members of the team participated in the Golden Glove Tournament which was held in Atlanta, Drane and Pitts being victorious in the finals. A great deal of interest was shown on the campus for this sport, with about thirty cadets taking an active part in an inter-company tournament. Plans are being made for an early start next year, and a great year for boxing is expected.

The courts are filled from early morning until dark. Con- veniently located, they afford many hours of pleasure for both co-eds and cadets. The college team is picked from the winners of a tourna- ment in which any college student is eligible, and this team makes trips over the state to various colleges to compete in matches. THE COURTS 1 9 CYCLOPS 3 7 RIFLE TEAM North Georgia College ' s rifle team, in a match with the team from the University of Georgia, performed a real believe-it-or-not miracle. When these two teams met, they actually tied, with a score of 1199 each. This was their only miracle, but there are many other things to their credit. The N. G. C. team did not lead in the Fourth Corps Area, but their mark was worthy of much praise. Under the tutelage of Major Matthews, North Georgia College ' s rifle team is destined to lead the junior colleges of the South in the near future. Kneeling: MAXWELL, MOORE, MORAN, WRIGHT, CORBETT.

Hard Fiijlu Murniurings began to be heard around tlie North Georgia College Campus last year that there would 1)e a Campus Party to spring up to fight the fraternities in the fall election. And spring up. it did. Al- though they put up a good front, and went about the campus as though notli- ing had happened, the presidents of both fraternit ' es were secretly horrified. Ever since this college was reduced to a Junior College, and consequently lost all its na- tional fraternities, the Rex Club has ruled almost supreme in Campus politics, but the Sigma Theta Club, under the capable leadership of L. P. Greer, planned to get a nice slice of officers this time, so they were especially perturbed. The man behind it all was none other than newspaper-man Thomas Frier, who was after some office, although it was not known until after the nominations were posted, which. Fraternity men were unable to find out much about how well the non-frats were organized, but wliat tliev did find out scared them prettx ' well. The upshot of it all was a union of the two fraternities, and a splitting of the offices. There was evidently either a joint meeting of the two frats or a mutual a.greement of some kind, because there were no conflicting nominations from them. Sergeant McConnell pulled a fast one on the nominees by liaving them speak in Chapel. It seems that President Rogers had ordered all the facultv members to take charge of the Chapel program one day during the year, so Sarge, seeing his opportunity, took it. The line-up was as follows: Speaking for the frat men — Erskine Rice: other frat men speaking were L. P. Greer for President of Stu- dent Body, S. D. Mandeville for Business Manager of The Cyclops, V. T. Duncan for President of Sophomore Class, Elliott Moran for President Freshman Class, Ray Griner for Vice President of the Sophomore Class, Guy Parker for Secre- tary of the Sophomore Class, M. C. Far- rar for Treasurer of the Sophomore Class, Joe Moore for Vice President of the Freshman Class, John Durden for Secretary of the Freshman Class, and Bill McGuire for Treasurer of the Fresh- man Class. The Non-Frat speakers were; Charles Porter for the Campus Party. The other Non-Frat speakers were: Thomas Frier for President of the Student Body. Llovd Spain speaking for Frier, Zeigler for Busi- ness Manager of the Cyclops, and va- rious others. Of course the most heated part of the campaign was between Frier and Greer for President of the Student Body. The Sigma Thetas were yearning for a presidency of something, and here was their chance. On the other hand Frier was the most promising, and also Moore Best AU-Rnuini the most popular man on the Campus ticket, so naturally, he was pushed to the front. The only startling event of the Chapel speaking was Mandeville ' s speech. .As everyone expected. Spain had gotten up and raved about the frat men hogging all the offices, and about the Campus Party having the best men for them. But in doing so. he roused Mandeville ' s CONTENTS Foreign Neivs Ill Military 112 Miscellany 115 Mime 114 ' National Affairs 109 The Press 115 Religion 113 Social 120 Sports 116 ire, and when it came his turn to speak, he panned Spain good for coming to him and telling him that, although he couldn ' t say so, he thought the frat men were the best men in the race, and that there were some of them he was really anxious to see go in office. Both parties seemed to go sign crazy for a day or two preceding the election. It was peculiar to note that practically all the placards were for three men only. In reality they represented what each group was after. The Rex Club had a lot of signs printed for Mandeville. The same held true with regard to Greer from Sigma Theta, and Frier from the Non- Frats. The results were not announced until the Cadet Bugler came out that night. They were: Thomas H. Frier for President of the Student Body from the Campus Ticket; S. D. Mandeville. Busi- ness Manager of the Cyclops; W. T. Dun- can. President of the Sophmore Class; M. C. Farrar, Secretary of the Sophomore Class; Ray Griner, Vice President of the Sophomore Class; G. R. Parker, Treas- urer of the Sophomore Class; E. E. Moran, President Freshman Class; Joe Moore, ' ice President Freshman Class; John A. Durden, Secretary Freshman Class, and Bill McGuire, Treasurer of the Freshman Class, all from the Fra- term ' ty Party. Everyone seemed to be in good spirits after the election, and all grievances were quickly forgotten. Frier promised a new deal in Student Government, and as far as the powers of his office go, he lias made a good one. However, being editor of the Cadet Bug- ler, he has been able to reach the stu- dents and influence tlieiii probably more than anybody else on the campus. ARCH Neat Idea N ot a reform, but certainly a fine thing was the idea that Student Body President Frier advanced; namely that the Corps of Cadets buy, or start a fund for the erection of an arch at tlie front entrance to the N. G. C. Campus. The campus is a beautiful one, but an arch at the entrance would add a great deal to the general appearance of the college, said Frier. However, due mainly to the fact that there was not a faculty member pushing the issue and urging the stu- dents to do something about it, nothing was accomplished; that is nothing had been done when the Cyclops went to press. National Affairs— {Continued) CREDIT lie Improved the College Credit should Ije given where credit is due, says a well known adage. Dr. Jonathan C. Rogers certainly deserves credit for the many improvements he has obtained for North Georgia College thus far in his administration. Before he came to the college, it had been run- ning along in a groove so long, until it had worn the groove into a rut. How- ever, since he has been here, the college has gotten a new forty thousand dollar girls ' dormitory, a more beautiful cam- pus, a higher scholastic rating, putting the college on a national accredited list, a wider field of e.xtra-curricula activities, and a broader and more cultural line of social activities. An active man about the campus, Dr. Rogers is known and liked by the Corps of Cadets and the Coeds and strangely enough, he knows them every one by name. PROHIBITION No Effeet On Students Neither prohibition nor its repeal ha- had any material eflfect on the member- of the Corps of Cadets at North Geor gia College. Say Dr. Rogers and Captain Hutcherson, There will not be an drinking, whatever, among the cadets General Order No. 22 reads, Gambliir. and the possession or use of into-xicatiir-: beverages is prohibited at all times. Thi- rules applies to cadets, whether on tin campus, in the barracks, in the fraternitx houses, or on leave. All of the general orders are rather rigidly enforced, but this one in particular has been stamped with an iron hand. Although, there ha- always been very little drinking hen , there has been practically none this ycar Every year, about a week before Cadet Ball, Captain Hutcherson. Commandant of Cadets, calls the battalion together, reads the general order pertaining to tin use of whiskey, or any other alcoholic beverage, reminds them that their con- duct at this biggest of all social functions here will be particularly noticed by the many visitors and out of town people and cautions them to be on their P ' s and Q ' s during that week-end. Odd note: There is only one place in Lumpkin County where beer can be bought, and that place is not in Dah- lonega. . LABOR Help to Students Sad as it will seem to alumni of tliis fine old school, one of the traditional rat jobs is no more. Freshmen no longer have the privilege of learning that fine old art of stacking wood in payment for. or as a penalty of having a room not ready for inspection. In past years, when- ever there was a great deal of wood that needed stacking. Sergeant McConn ell would follow the Officer of the Day around during the evening room inspec- tion, and everywhere he found a little dust, or a bed the least bit untidy, he would get a couple of names. As soon as his list was long enough, he would .slop, and at the ne.xt formation for din- ner W ' Ould read out the names and as- sign them to a wood pile for an after- noon. However, since the advent of the N. Y. A., those hours which were so good at teaching neatness, are gone with the wind. The room inspections are still carried on. and there are other penalties for not dusting closely enough, but that old cus- tom of stacking wood exists no more for the majority of the first year men. as this is now one of the numerous jobs taken over by the N. Y. A. workers. Although it has done away with a form of disciplinary penalty. The Na- tional Youth . dministration has been a wonderful help for the college, as many of the cadets and coeds, too, would be unable to attend college at all if it were not for this aid. The jobs range from cleaning the campus and mowing lawns, to work in the library and in the Regis- trar ' s office. l ' . KK. K .; Hull Shoolcr ' MIS hr POLITICAL NOTE spring Election As the Cyclgi ' S goes to press, there is beginning a little undercurrent of politi- cal discussion regarding the coming pub- lications election. The election is to be held sometime in May for the Editor- in-Chief and the Business Mana.ger of The Cyclops, and the Editor-in-Chief and the Business Manager of the Cadet Bug- ler for next year. However, this dis- cussion has been extremely guarded, and little is known about how the line-up will go. It is a certainty that Frier will have his own campus candidates for the of- fices of the Bugler, and it is equally certain that Rice will have some Rex can- didates nominated, and Greer some Sigma Thetas. It is not known as we go to press whether or not there will be ;i union of the frats again, but it seems rather improbable — unless the Campus - 110- I ' arty turns out with mighty strong candi- dates and support. Incidentally, it is extremely unfortu- nate that this election wasn ' t held much earlier. The men who are to hold these positions next year should have been re- ceiving intensive training on the staffs of these publications. The editor of the annual, especially, unless he happens to be someone who worked on the staff this year, is going to run into all kinds of iiot water, we fear, because he will have missed all chance for training in this field. THE Y CUP Each year the Y. M. C. . awards a beautiful silver loving cup to some stu- dent for leadership in Religion, Scholar- ship, and general campus activity. It is kept a deep secret until graduation exer- cises, when it is presented, along with the other awards and honors which are given at that time. There has been some speculation as to who will get the cup for next year, but opinion seems to be prettT well divided on that score. Cadet Capt. M. C. Farrar, Jr., President of the Y. M. C. A., was awarded the cup last vcar. EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS Students Delighted Last year. Dr. Rogers, President of North Georgia College, inaugurated a series of educational programs for the students. During the past two years he has secured a variety of entertainments for the members of the student body, at no cost to them. The programs have been varied and entertaining and accepted most enthusiastically by everyone. The performers, lecturers, artists, musicians, and even a magician, have all been men of no little prominence, several of them being nationally, and one of them inter- nationally, famous. Among the most out- standing ones were Petrie and his White Hussars. Richard Haliburton. (his name needs no explanation). Alberto Salvi and his Quintet, and John Temple Graves II. , fter the programs put on by all of these men there was thunderous ap- plause, demanding an encore from all of the musicians, and one of the lecturers. The cadets and coeds of this institution have been extremely fortunate in having these programs. SATURDAY CLASSES Students Raise Cuin Probably the most unpopular thing the faculty and the administration did this year from the students ' viewpoint, was to inau- gurate Saturday classes at the beginning of the last quarter. At the beginning of the last quarter, an order came from the administration, stating that all odd and even-period classes would meet on alternate Saturdays, and all students were to attend, thus forc- ing them to remain at college every week- end. There were to be two free Satur- days during the quarter. FOREIGN NEM S WEST GEORGIA Annual ' riicmc The yearbook of West Georgia College is Gone With The Wind! To be more explicit or unequivocal as Daniel Webs- ter would say it, special permission was obtained from Margaret Mitchell, re- cently famed author of tlie epic novel of nineteen hundred and thirty-six, to give the aforesaid theme to the college annual. Appropriate and distinctive we term it. May it always remain dear to tlie stu- dents of West Georgia even if it is ap- parently gone with the wind. REINHARDT Most Practical Early in the scliool year chemistry stu- dents at Reinhardt College selected a problem for individual investigation. The subjects chosen for study ranged over the whole field of Chemistry including the common articles of food, clothing and industries of present-day civilization. When the student had completed his or her own particular piece of work, a com- prehensive written report was made. In this way a much broader knowledge of the many practical phases of Chemistry were gained. MIDDLE GEORGIA New Course A progressive step as made this year at Middle Georgia College. A Pre-Engi- neering course to prepare students for Georgia Tech was added to their curricu- lum — a course including Mechanical Drawing, College Algebra and Chemis- try. Since it required a year to com- plete the prescribed work, it was neces- sary to take si.x hours a week in Mechani- cal Drawing. In this engineering course instruction was given in the proper use of drawing instruments and equipment. The course is very important in technolog- ical work as all Tech work hinges on machine designs. It is mainly a study of simple sections and methods of dimen- sioning, emphasizing the development of techinque. We dare say this is a most progressive step for any junior college to take. CLEMSON Beauty A colorful event and an annual affair at Clenison College is the Moonlight Parade, schedu ' ed every year as the closing function of the Spring dances. Quoting The Tii;cr. student newspaper of Clemson, A full moon is scheduled to be on hand as the brigade, dressed in white ducks, white cap covers, and cross belts, passes before the traditionally white clad young lady, chosen as honorary colonel from those pre-ent at the Military Ball held recently. This Moonlight Parade was first held in ig,?..], and has since that time become one of the many fine old traditions of that in- stitution. The young lady chosen as honor- ary colonel, is clad in a white blouse, white cap, white riding breeches, black sam- browne, belt, and black boots. The cadet commissioned officers of the batta ion wear white shoes and red sashes with their uni- forms. It is almost impossible to imagine a more beautiful, spectacular, or colorful military ceremony. Military training can be made boringly drab, or extremely colorful. This occasion is doubtless looked forward to with pleasant anticipation by C enison cadets. Unique Theme The theme of decorations for Formal Spring Pall at Clemson this year is de- cidedly dififerent. The theme will be based on the class book, itself. The entrance to the dance floor will be through an archway supported by fluted Greek columns, and it is believed that the scheme will be very efTective. GEORGIA SOUTHWESTERN Real Nezvspaper 1937 ushered in for Georgia South- western College a real newspaper. From a small four column paper it evolved into the largest newspaper of any junior or senior college in the state. The Sou ' Wester compares in page size with any of the metropolitan press in this country. The Smi ' H ' cstei is truly a gale of progress! SHORTER COLLEGE Student Requests Ouarler System . n editorial appeared in one of the January issues of the Periscope, student news publication of Shorter College at Rome, Georgia, bemoaning the fact that Shorter still held to the semester sys- tem. The student writing the editorial gave three reasons for changing to the quarter system. They were as follow-s: { 1 ) In one semester a student is required to take entirely too many general courses, leaving no chance for specialization. (2) Although it is hard for a student to wish examinations oftener, they are the recognized means of retaining sub- ject matter. In the quarter system exam- inations come before Christmas, in the early Spring, and at the close of the school year. In this way, the much dreaded after Christmas examinations are eliminated. (3) Due to the fast increasing num- ber of colleges who have the quarter system, (and fifty million colleges can ' t be wrong), credits are very hard to trans- fer and usually many are lost. The writer urged the students of Shorter to arise, and request the quar- ter system. WESLEY AN Honor H ' eek One week each year is set aside at Wesleyan College devoted to gaining a clearer understanding of the term honor which is so prominent in school activities, according to The ]Vatclitozcer, official organ of this college. Quoting an editorial: The recent observance of Honor Week on the campus maj- be - Ill - scored a success in that it accomplished its purpose, that of bringing a fuller and more practical working knowledge of the term ' honor ' before the students. Wes- leyan was founded on the principles of honor, and it is around these that she has had her growth. These principles, too, are embodied in her ideals. DUKE Dad ' s Day Speaking of special days, the Y. M. C. A. of Duke University, at Durham, re- cently set aside a day specifically and ap- propriately called Dad ' s Day. Each year at this time the father of each stu- dent is sent an invitation to attend the University for two days, during which he is shown about the campus, pro- fessors become acquainted with the Dads, and a father and son banquet is held the last evening of the two days. This plan could be easily adopted at North (.leorgia and would afford a pleas- ant time for all. UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA Mass Exams U ' ork . ' According to an article in the March issue of the Red and Black, University of Georgia newspaper, the mass examina- tions there are working smoothly. These mass exams as they are commonly termed, are examinations in all subjects scheduled for any one day, held in some central place. When they were first in- stalled, a year or so ago, there was some turmoil among the students, but accord- ing to the editor of Red and Blael; this was because the students were not used to them. In the same article. Editor Tom Mc- Rae says, We are against the honor sys- tem and for a more stringent method of conducting exams. Llovii Si ' .mx issi st Bolsheviki MILITART REORGANIZATION Ciidcts Surprised The upper classmen of the Cadet Corps got the surprise of their lives at the first drill period last September. Instead of the usual two companies and band, there was to be another company, C Company. Every one knew that there was an extra large student body this year, but no one had thought of any change like the one which w as taking place. And even then, the officers of the new company were not known because the battalion was or- ganized through the line sergeants, but no higher, that day. The barracks buzzed after drill period with talk of the new state of affairs. Many surmises were made, but nothing definite was known until ne.xt day after lunch, when Capt. Hutclierson, Commandant of Cadets called a meeting of all the officers who had been given their commissions the previous year, and told thoni of the new line-up. ' ' i HONOR COMPANY Chosen by Competitive Drills lajor James E. Matthews announced at the first of the year that besides the usual three competitive inspections and drills which have heretofore decide l honor company for the next year, points won in an inter-company athletic program would be counted. Company C, com- manded by the excellent and extremely popular Cadet Captain Guy R. Parker, won the first Competitive drill and inspec- tion, and the inter-company athletic pro- gram. That is all the information which can be obtained until graduation day, when the winning company is announced, and the captain of the company is awarded the honor saber. The inter-company athletics introduced by Coach Coker and Major Matthews, included basketball and boxing, princi- ODD NOTE The North Georgia College Battalion selected for its mascot, not some animal, but a human being; and a snappy mascot he is, too. The local Methodist preacher ' s five year old son, Olin B. King, in a complete full dress uniform of his own, attends all parades, and other military ceremonies. The Corps of Cadets is ex- tremely proud of him. SYSTEM OF INSPEC- TION CHANGED Difjereiit Inspection Officers In previous years Government Inspec- tion of the R. O. T. C. units of the various essentially military colleges in this Corps Area have been by some offi- cer appointed by the Corps Area Com- mander. However, this year, the system of Inspection was changed. The P. M. S. T. of each Military College inspects the unit of some other college. The North Georgia College unit was inspected by the P. M. S. T. of Clemson Col- lege, and Major James E. Matthews, head of the military unit here, inspected the R. O. T. C. at Presbyterian College. Major Greer A Military man, lie Because of his superior military ability, L. P. Greer was to be given the rank of Cadet Major, and made Battalion Com- mander. The rest of the officers were: Company A. — W. T. Duncan, Capt.; R. B. Byrd, 1st Lt.; E. A. Atkinson, 2nd Lt.; Companv B. — Ray Griner, Capt.; R. L. Hamby. ' lst Lt.; W. E. Pitts, 2nd Lt.; Company C — Guy Parker, Capt.; Ers- kine Rice, 1st Lt.; Ben Nuckolls, 2nd Lt. The Staflf was to be made up of 1st Lt. Farrar, Adjutant; and 2nd Lt. Jackson, Personnel Adjutant. A popular figure of the campus, and a good leader, Greer was elected President of the Officers ' Club, a big job, and one which he handled quite capably.

COLLEGE PARK, GEORGIA SUPERIOR QUALITY SPORTING GOODS PALMOUR HARDWARE GAINESVILLE, GEORGIA RELIGION ' The religious organizations of the cam- pus consist of the Young Women ' s Christian Association and the Young Men ' s Christian Association and both have exerted a great influence over the rehgious and social life of the students here. Each organization gave several pro- grams in Chapel, two being given jointly and although given by religious organi- zations, were enjoyed by the coeds and cadets. The Y. W. C. A. promotes a whole- some atmosphere for the coeds, and Doris Oglesby, its president, in cooperation with an efficient cabinet, leads the girls in short vesper services each Wednes- day evening. The meetings are varied — sometimes a song service, oftentimes, a short devotional. Occasionally, visiting speakers give interesting talks. Dr. Rogers who has shown a decided inter- est in both Y ' s attended several meetings and to one he brought his daughter. Miss Katherine Rogers, who gave a most enjoyable talk. The social side of life is not neglected. There are both indoor and outdoor socials during the year. Miss Billie Howington, the faculty adviser was a great help to the girls in many ways. For one of its main objectives, the Y made plans to send, this summer, one or two of the 1937-38 officers to the Y encampment at Blue Ridge. Both the Y. W. and the Y. M. shared the Y Hut. It is a recreational house where some of the students go and spend their leisure hours. There are books, magazines, a radio and games accessible to the students, and although this advan- tage has not been used much in past years, the students seem more interested this year. The Y. M. C. A... under the leadership of the Bull-Shootin ' Cap ' n Marion C- Farrar, accomplished a great deal during the year. It held its meetings regularly on Tuesday evenings in the Y Hut. Farrar obtained for each member a mem- bership card which entitles him to full privileges in any Y. M. C. A. in . Vmerica. The Y programs have been varied. Farrar had every faculty member who would, make a talk at one of his meet- ings. These talks brought the boys in closer contact with the teachers and gave them an opportunity to know them out- side of the classroom. For their faculty adviser the members in name, but Farrar in reality, chose Mr. Green who is interested in boys. He guided them in the work with the Y and offered many suggestions which helped them in the organization, making the programs lighter with his wit. The Y. M. C. A. gave several socials during the school year, one of its annual affairs being the wiener roast, given in late Spring. Farrar has done a great deal with the Y this year, and really de- serves the credit he likes to get. CITY SHOE SHOP W. A.

Band, the Men ' s and W ' onicn ' s Glee Clubs, and the N. Y. A. orchestra. The participation of the stu- dents in these various extra-curricular activities not only brought pleasure to them, but through programs and various social functions brought much enter- tainment to the students as a whole. The Band, under the direction of Prof. .■ ngelsberg, gave programs which made classical music more appreciated. Be- sides giving programs, it was always on hand at the basketball games, making them much more exciting. We students were proud of our Band when Capt. !vlc- VVhorter led a procession of cadets with their shining instruments into the crowd at Piedmont. Its presence at the game helped to cheer up the boys and made defeat more bearable. Too, let us not forget the inspiring Sunday afternoon concerts, given on the campus. People from far and near gath- ered around the porch of Price Memo- rial Hal l to listen to the higher class moosic which only North Georgia ' s Band could play. The college was greatly honored by an invitation for the Ban,d to appear at the Southeastern Fair in Atlanta last October. This trip proved most success- ful and gave the bo.vs their first oppor- tunity to make a public appearance. Also, they made their debut over the radio and there must be a future for them because Ihcy didn ' t receive the gong! The way in which Selph waved his wand and stepped high across the drill field was real magic and will never be forgotten. The Men ' s Glee Club, directed by Mr. Booth, has afforded a great deal of en- tertainment for the college. Several Chapel programs were given with special solo numbers. The type of music ranged from that of the concert stage to that of tin pan alley. Special emphasis was laid upon their Spring concert tour. On this tour they visited several towns, presenting a varied musical program. One of the main presentations of the music department was the Cantata given at Christmas time. The cantata, com- posed by Messrs. Booth and Dismukes, was sung by the Men ' s and Women ' s Glee Clubs and the Village Choir. Mr. Disnmkes has directed the women in music of the same type as that of the men. The Women ' s Glee Club gave those with musical ability an opportunity to learn more about vocalization. The girls participated in several programs in Chapel in the evening. (Jne of their main undertakings was their work in the Choir at the lethodist Church. Everj ' mem- ber of the Glee Club was a member of the Choir. In this phase of the Club, they learned to sing the more difficult anthems. This Choir, under the direction of Messrs. Booth and Dismukes, filled one engagement in Atlanta, singing in the State Choir Festival of the Georgia Federation of Music Clubs. This was a new experience for the entrants and taught them the value of better music. The NY.Aphytes, an orchestra organ- ized in the early l ' all by Mr. Booth, pro- vided music for the various social func- tions of the campus. Its appearance twice weekly at the Girls ' Dormitorv SKIT P. RKER B. N ' KS C ' mgcr Rogers Fred Aslaire strred up a great deal of interest in social dancing. Also, it furnished music for several dances at the gym. The in- digenous interpretation that the NYA- phytes gave the latest song hits were such tliat it is certain not even Harlem, much less Manhattan, has heard anything like them. Si ' lp l Is Sllt ' i ' zer One of the most enjoyable parts of the North Georgia College Glee Club this year was the mock opera, Julious Sneezer. C. E. Selph sang the role of Sneezer, and the Quartet the part of the conspirators, with the remainder of the Glee Club as a supporting cast. The en- tire cast moaned and groaned as Director V. D. ( Slave-Driver) Booth whipped the skit rapidly into excellent form by bear- ing down and putting the pressure on the rehearsals. Booth said at the first of the year, I will not have any monkey shines at rehearsals. Anyone so inclined, please make himself known now to save me the trouble of scratching his name from the Glee Club roster later. He made himself thoroughly understood to start with, demanding that all members be on time for all rehearsals. And woe to the man who came in late! However, this efficient direction under such a capable tnusician accounts for the huge success N. G. C. ' s Glee Club has enjoyed the past few years. One of the high spots of Glee Club practice was listening to Professor Booth play the piano before each practice. He would always come about fifteen minutes early, and play until time for the practice to begin. Before the year was over, nearly every member would be present to hear him play during those few minutes. He played something different each night, his music ranging from popular jazz to Bach, Handel and Rachmaninoff, depend- ing on his mood. Homer Westmoreland ' s WE SERVE WOOD ' S ICE CREAM SODA FOUNT CANDIES • • • FILMS SOLD and DEVELOPED MISCELLANY THE PRESS Tiiiir h rill if i all lliiiu s Initiation One of the most unforgettable incidents of a freshman at North Georgia College is his initiation into the unilorm. Tlie first time he has it, it is decreed by an- cient tradition and the cadet officers that he shall sleep in complete full dress uni- form with his rifle in the bed. Another tradition beloved by upper classmen, which fits in at this point, is that on that same night, promptly at ten thirty the freshmen fall out and form in the quad- rangle for calisthenics administered by the Battalion Commander. Nuisance The editor of tlie Cvi lops made such a nuisance of himself the week that tin- annual photographer was in Dahlonega, that by the end of the week faculty mem- bers would say No when they saw him coming. Promoted The following noteworthy promotions were made during the year: Cadet Pri- vate Thomas H. Frier to the rank of 2nd Lieut, and assigned to the Battalion Staff as S 2; Cadet Master Sergeant J. H. Mc- Gee to the rank of 2nd Lieut, assuming the position of S 4 on the Battalion Staff; Cadet 2nd Lieut. Joe Jackson, personnel Adjutant, to the rank of 1st Lieut.; Cadet 1st Lieut. M. C. Farrar, Jr. to the rank of Captain. Appointed C. E. Selph was appointed associate Editor of the Cadet Bugler by Editor Frier, at the first of the year. H. F. Har- rison was also appointed Associate Edi- tor about the middle of the year. Church Attendance The Cadet Corps had very little room to grumble about compulsory church at- tendance during the winter quarter. The church formation is held out of doors, and whenever it rains on Sunday morn- ing the bugler sounds recall, and there is no formation. It rained every Sunday morning during the winter quarter except three. Dog Lover Major James E. Matthews is a great dog lover, and is often seen in Dahlonega with two or three Pomeranians in his car. He ays that they belong to Mrs. Matthews. Stepping Out This year North Georgia College sent two representatives to the sixteenth annual convention of the Southern Association of College Students and Press Representatives at New Orleans, April eighth through the tenth. This is the first year N. G. C. has ever had a representative at this convention. Buijh ' 7- I ' m for it, said Frier, witli a bow. What are you talking about? The Cadet Bugler, this year blossomed forth with a neat four page printed issue with Harrison spreading all over the bottom of the page in an article yelling to the housetops that Tommy had kept his promises. He was referring to one of Frier ' s campaign promises of a printed newspaper. We had a printed newspaper, all right, but it was know-n, although not gfnerally known, even before the cam- paign that Dr. Rogers had secured funds for a printed newspaper free to the stu- dents. However, although the credit for a free, printed newspaper does not go to Frier, credit, very much credit does go to him for putting out an excellent paper, always full of interesting news well written. At Christmas, the Bugler came out with an eight page issue, which took a lot of high pressure salesmanship on the part of Business Manager Nuck- olls to complete the advertisement sec- tion. F ' rier, like the Editor of the Cvcuii ' s, was handicapped by a worrying com- plex, and one night when tlie Buglers were put on the wrong bus by the printer and went to North Carolina in- stead of Dahlonega, it was thought by several members of his staflf that he would either lose his mind or his religion; they could not definitely decide which. The job has been a hard one for both the i !ditor and Business Manager and they deserve much praise for their work. The Cyclops I just can ' t get enough sleep, moaned Editor Rice of the Cyclops whenever anything went wrong, especially scholas- tically. He continually grumbled about missing his good sleep. We hope that he can catch up on his sleep when he finishes here, but as Daddy Barnes told him. Life isn ' t all a bed of ease. The extremely versatile business man- ager of the Cyclops, S. D. Mandeville, Jr., was responsible in a large measure for the bigger Cyclops this time. He worked hard and also kept Rice between the shafts.

Led by the white haired Captain Charlie Hood the varsity team consisted of five of the scrappiest boys that N. G. C. has seen in quite a while, these boys were: Lefty Cowa at center, Bridges and Martin at guards, and Christian and Hood at for- wards. The season opened on the first week of December with N. G. C. winning three easy warm up games played with Nelson, Martin and Gumming High Schools. The Cadets started their official sea- son of January the 8th defeating Rein- hardt College by an easy score of 27 to 19, also on the same trip the team de- feated Rabun Gap Institute by a wide margin of 54 to 29. The Cadets, very much encouraged over their flying start, kept up their fight- ing reputation the next week-end by de- feating three strong teams, Southern Union College 48 to 21, West Georgia College 47 to 39, and Young Harris Col- lege 53 to 29. On January the 23rd the team jour- neyed over to play their old rival Pied- mont; the boys were followed by a very big portion of the student body and the band, but the boys just couldn ' t seem to get the old click that night and lost to them by a score of 43 to 33. Being very much upset over their loss the boys came l)ack home the ne.xt night and with re- newed spirit defeated the strong semi-pro team from Canton, The Cherokee In- dians, by a score of S3 to 27. This game with the Indians saw Bill Martin leading the scores with a grand total of 18 points, with Cown and Bridges both getting 11 points to their favor. The Cadets then carried on their suc- cessful season until they met up with the Canton Indians again and the Geor- gia University Freshmen. On the trip of February the 4th and 5th the Cadets suffered two bad defeats, but returned that Saturday night to defeat Reinliardt College 40 to 31. After meeting bad luck this week the team went on its final road trip which lasted three days without playing a single game on their own court. On this trip the Jinx had them and they lost three straight games to West Georgia College, Gordon Military Institute, and the Geor- gia Tech Freshmen. The team then re- turned home that Saturday to end the week by defeating the Georgia Freshmen by a score of 36 to 27. The Cadets after playing two more games were then ready for the tourna- ment to be lield in Milledgeville. They drew a bye the first round and had to play Gordon in their first game. They were defeated, however, by a score of 23 to 35. Thus ended a very successful season by the North Georgia College ' s Cadets, with the following individual high scorers: Cown led the season with a grand total of 238 points. Lefty played heads up ball all the year as a Freshman and should do even better next year as a Sophomore on the team. Next came Captain Hood with 170 points. Bill Mar- tin with 168, Ben Christian with 154, and Bridges with 135. This team, that is the first five, will have only two of its origi- nal members back next year, but they have some very good material coming up in Moore, DeWecse, Joe Moore, and Panter. Luck to them in ' i7 and ' 38. Repp.xrd Big: cst Goldbnck LlEUTKN.

Even though it was new and under many handicaps the leather punchers ended a most suc- cessful season having won two of the Golden Gloves Championships in Atlanta In the ranks of X. G. C. boxers there were two most outstanding boxers in Drane and Pitts. Neither of these two boys had possessed previous experience, but they were still determined to go places. After about two months of hard training and bo.xing these boys went down to Atlanta to the Golden Gloves boxing tournament and won for them- selves a pair of Golden Gloves. Drane weighing 145 pounds won the welter- we ' ght class after winning three hard fought fights. Pitts, weighing 15S, won the championship of the middle weight class. There were also tliree other cadets that went to Atlanta to fight: Moran 145 pounds, Irwin 125 pounds, and Porter, 115 pounds. Charlie Porter won his first fight by a decision but lost his second fight after fighting mighty hard to win. This year saw much interest in box- ing with many inter-company fights tak- ing place and creating very much interest and rivalry between the three companies. At the close of their inter-company bouts, Company C, led by the Fighting Cap- tain Parker, came out on top by winning- three times as many fights as any of the other companies. Next year the North Georgia College boxing team should show very much abilitx ' in inter-collegiate boxin.g which is P. UKE1( he X ' i ' as good looking popular already being put underway by Coach Coker, and with the earnest support of his fighting cadets they certainly will go places. Baseball This year saw about twenty-five or thirty boys reporting for early baseball under the direction of Coach Shault L. Coker. The first of March, Coach Coker called for all the pitchers and catchers to report to him for early limbering up practice, and then after Sprin,g holidays, tliey all set down to real honest hard work. The 1937 season saw only a few vete- rans from last year ' s sciuad and thus it was necessary to build an entirely new team from what N. G. C. had in the previ- ous year. This Coach Coker set out to do, with Parker, Drane, Corbitt, Wil- liams, Lane, and Henson the only boys returning from last year ' s squad. All of these boys played jam-up baseball last year and even better this year. Parker, being one of the most alert and efficient players tht N. G. C. has ever seen on the diamond, played very good baseball the whole year at second base; Drane with his long lanky left handed tlirows proved to be very good at first base; and James Corbitt kept up his fine pitching this year, having an even better record in ' 37 than he did in ' 36.

Hensen, changing his position of second base last year to catcher, proved a very good one with a throw to second that Parker could al- ways depend on. This year ' s squad was indeed boosted by such Freshmen as Joe Moore in the outfield, a cracking good hitter, and Reed who. coming here with much experience as a ball player, proved to be one of the best short stops in the conference. Whaley and Hatcher also pitched some very fine games for N. G. C. and with a little more experience should be up with the best of them next year. This group of boys along with Bridges, Watson and others, should give Coach Coker some fine material with which to start off next year ' s season. Tennis Tennis, even though it is one of the minor sports at North Georgia College, is one of the many sports in which nearly everyone of the student body partici- pates. . t the beginning of the Spring quarter and with the oncoming of Spring, one finds the tennis courts well filled at most any time during the day. Each year there is a series of intra- mural tournaments carried on between the various companies of the Battalion and also a final tournament is run off about the middle of . pril in which the members of the tennis team are picked. This year however a preliminary tourna- ment was run off in order to pick a team OrzTs Bl. nton A useful rat H. ' A. of five boys to participate in the tennis matches that come previous to the final competitive tournament. This year, the team for these matches were: Hughie. Brown. Myddelton, Shingler, and Pey- ton. . ' Ml of these men are Freshmen this year and by next year they should all he unbeatable by any of the junior col- leges in this conference. Intra-Miiral Program This year for the first time in a num- l)er of years, every cadet had a chance to participate in athletics if he wanted to. In previous years it was practically impossible for any one but the very best athletes to get the use of the gymnasium and the sporting equipment owned by the college. This year Coach Coker has not only made it possible, but has en- couraged all the cadets to come down to the gym and work out. The fact that the men appreciated this was shown in the interest they manifested. The first form of intra-mural athletics on the year ' s schedule was inter-conipany touch football. Company C and Company A were soon out of the tournament, and the choice narrowed down to the Band and Company B. The final game was pretty close, but Company B won, after a hard stru ggle.

There seems to be a little bit more doing every week-end than formerly. The two local fraternities, the Rex Club, and the Sigma Thcta Club have probably contributed more to this than any other organizations on the campus, although the Officers ' Club and the Sergeants ' Club did bring in some mighty good orchestras from Gainesville, . thens and Atlanta. At the beginning of school each fraternity was on the lookout for the pick of the Fresh- men class for pledges, and tried to im- press them by giving house dances and socials, vvhicli witli tlie already crowded life of the beginning of school, made things take on a lively air, indeed. Nkttie King .! ().? I ' lipiilar Co-cd I )iU ' iif tlie most enjoyable spots in the college life is the regular Wednesday eve- ning informal dance at the Girls ' Dormi- tory. It only lasts one hour — from im- mediately after supper until first call to quarters, when the cadets have to leave. The music is furnished by the NYA- phytes, the college orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Booth. The biggest social events of the year were the Rex Club ' s winter dance, and Spring Homecoming dance, the Sigma Theta Club ' s Homecoming Commence- ment Dance, and the biggest of all, the Kleventh Annual Cadet Ball, which was held May 14. The Cadet Ball, the most elaborate social function of the year, is paid for by the student body, but is sponsored by the Officers ' Club. If by cliance there is any money left over, it is put into a fund for Cadet Ball the next ear. Captain Hutcherson cooperated to the fullest extent with the Officers ' Club in putting on this formal dance.

There being a number or organizations on the campus that gave dances during the year, a numlier of different out uf town orchestras furnished swing time for the cadets and their dates during 1930 and ' 37. Last ear the Sergeants ' Club had an out of state orchestra come to Dah- lonega to play for one of their big blowouts. The orchestra, a colored one. was either advertised or recom- mended as a fourteen piece, red hot jazz band. The Sergeants didn ' t know any- thing about the orchestra, and their faces fell as suddenly as rain in April when the fourteen pieces turned out to be seven musicians, and seven boys to clap in time to the music. Ever since then the chevroned cadets, especially their honorary member and faculty advisor. Sergeant McConnell. have been in for a great deal of good- natured razzing from the members of tlie Officers ' Club. A most amusing thing liappened this year at the first Sergeants ' Club ' s dance of the year. Determined to have the best orchestra they could af- ford, they engaged a well known college swing orchestra from a near-by large uni- versity. One of the first pieces they played was one in which all the mem- bers of the orchestra except the drummer mmI cornetist clapped. RESENTMENT Fur Fields Green . rather peculiar thing, and somewhat resented by the coeds was the fact that tlie Cadet Ofiicers would oftentimes have Brenau College girls up for their dances. However, the Officers, following that old adage Far fields are the greenest would see that the N, G. C. coeds had dates but as their date they would occasionally have out of town sirls.

FINIS As parting word to the cadets and coeds of the North Georgia College, we wish to say that we have no apology to make for The 1937 Cyclops. We have only one apology at all to offer, and that we do most humbly — for any mistake that may have occurred in compiling the book under the strain of a most busy college year. If there are any mistakes, we make this apology to those individuals who are affected. It is needless to say that the publica- tion of an annual, regardless of the size of the institution, keeps the staff under high pressure most of the year. If this issue of the annual publication of the student body of North Georgia College is a success it is in a large measure due to the cooperation of the student body and the faculty. If it is not a success, the responsibility rests solely with the Editor, for he was responsible, and he only, for the planning of the book. We are very fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Charles W. Young, a well known Atlanta artist, connected with the Annual Department of Foote Davies Company, and who executed the draw- ings in the Views section. We also wish to acknowledge and thank Professor C. J. Dismukes, and Pro- fessor J. C. Barnes, faculty advisers to the Cyclops staff, and Sergeant Richard S. McConnell for their help in advising us, and for pulling us out of those holes into which editors and business managers invariably fall. Without the help of Ser- geant McConnell it would have been im- possible to get many of the military pictures. Our sole aim has been to please you. We sincerely hope we have succeeded. THE EDITOR. mm
