WITHIN the thought of these two striking- lines, inscribed over the entrance of our first building, may be discerned the key to the resurrection of Old Oglethorpe College which, with its Doric col- umns, stood on Midway Hill in Milledgeville, then the capital of Georgia, in the early nineteenth century as a tribute to education in the South. And, too, the thought of these lines may be described as the palpitating note in the heart of that modern philanthropist. Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, our founder and president, as he went about indefatigably in his effort to bring the old institution to life. These almost living structures of blue granite which surround us today are not new in the sense of appliance to the University. The dig- nity, honesty, reliability, reverence and beauty expressed in them reflect over a span of more than a century when a gi ' oup of men organized the Georgia Educational Society with the avowed purpose of giving an educa- tion to every youth in the Southland. From their earnest endeavors grew Old Oglethorpe. And from Old Oglethorpe comes the ideas and ideals of our University today! Let us take a retrospective view of the historical genesis of our Alma Mater. We find that the educational society spok- en of in the above paragraph as early as 1809 began a movement which culminat- ed in the astablishment of a Theological Seminary for the southeast. Before they had finished, three great institutions sprang up, blazing the trail for similar ones throughout the South afterwards. The first of these, an institution of power which was graduating the manhood of the southeast into careers of useful- ness, was Old Oglethorpe. In the decade of the fifties we learn that the school had prospered and become the one great in- Lupton Hall Tower stitution of the South, ■0 ■. tumimGisjim m S Chapel Exit Among its foremost professors and graduates we find the name of the im- mortal Sidney Lanier, who finished his work in three years and then became a tutor within the walls of the college un- til its sons marched to battle. We read of James Woodrow, uncle of the twenty- eighth president of the United States, who was admired for his scientific at- tainments. There was Joseph LeGonte who ranks as one of the greatest geol- ogists America has ever produced. Among her alumni we read the names of governors, statesmen, discoverers, moderators, all true Christian gentlemen of integrity. But, as President Jacobs so ably ex- pressed it in his owm story of Oglethorpe, the college died at Gettysburg. At the outbreak of the Civil War, the sons of the Old College marched to the ranks, the trustees invested the en- dowment in Confederate bonds, the buildings were converted into hospitals and later destroyed. Thus, Old Oglethorpe died. From the smoldering ashes came the ideas and ideals and a few good souls, despite the evils of Reconstruction days, made an attempt to res- urrect the Old College in 1870 with Atlanta as the site. The financial disaster at the time made the task utterly impossible and so the doors were closed for a second time after a little less than three years of exis- tence. A little more than a half century later we find New Oglethorpe located in the capital of the state which was founded by that great English phil- anthropist for whom the school was named. And it is championing the ideas and ideals so deeply rooted in the Old College. It was Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, who, sixteen years ago, accepted the almost impossible task of resurrecting Old Oglethorpe. The story is a romance within itself. It began in the youth of the president when he listened to the tales of his grandfather who was a professor at the insti- tution in Milledgeville. It was then that a love for the old school began to kindle in the heart of Dr. Jacobs. izaamcBaw Being reared in a tiny South Carolina village, a population of 1500, he was sent to Princeton University, a Presbyterian institution, and one of the most beautiful universities in the world. There he dreamed of the establishment of similar institutions in his native section amid the praise of other great universities by his fellow classmates who came from all sec- tions of the country. And so it came to pass that without invitation save from within, and without authorization save from above, Dr. Jacobs came to Atlanta on September 13, 1909, to refound the school of his dreams. And there be- gins that romantic story which ends in these beautiful buildings of ours, those sound educational principles, after sixteen years of effort. The president, with his corps of assistants, appealed to the good- hearted people of the Southland and dollar by dollar was added. A cam- paign of four years was conducted, the storay told to people in cities, towns and villages from Galveston, Texas, to Charlottesville, Virginia, and from Marshallville, Missouri, to Bradenton, Florida. The city of Atlanta did its share, more than seventy men subscribing not less than $1,000 each to the campaign. Despite conditions of turmoil and financial disaster more than five thousand people have contributed to the cause, the assets and subscrip- tion pledges having passed the sum of one and a half million dollars. And so the corner stone of the University was laid on January 21, 1915 with the .--rf - V a motto Manu Dei Resurrexit (By the W 4 ' 4%1 SmKl m hand of God she has risen from the WlmLp Isjyt: dead) engraved upon it. II Tl 1 Iding After more than a half century of rest, Oglethorpe once again opened its doors. With only one building, now the Administration Building, classes began in the Fall of 1916. Today we find three magnificent buildings, plans underway for a wonderful stadium and the Univer- sity steadily improving in greatness as well as bigness. We, the members of the Senior class, upon leaving the campus of our Alma Mater as graduates, trace over the i wii uRnmcwsm past lour years and see a vast improve- ment in the University. As Freshmen we found only the Administration Build- ing and the executive offices of Lupton Hall standing. As we leave we see three magnificent structures and plans in the making for more strides forward. To read the history of our Alma Mater, to stare in the faces of these buildings, to adhere to the teachings of our president and faculty, is indeed a stirring inspiration and we are justly proud of such an institution as our Alma Mater. We shall contribute our efforts to its growth and prosperity. As we go forth may these words forever remain in our hearts: We have finished, we We go, noble sons. But from within ' tis i Our work yet iindone. Loivrij Hall Etitranci.

Ga. ; Librarian Mitchell College, Statesvi uafloacBaM School of Science m K The School of Science offers the degree of A.B., in ' pP B Science by three approaches: those of General Science, -Ww Special Science and Mathematical Science. These give J M to students a varied selection to equip them specifically H ' J for scientific research and for general culture. In each I Bk ' i H ' ° P one-half the requirements for graduation include B H H the humanities of language, history, etc., to insure m KM breadth of culture and knowledge. Of the large number preparing for their professions several have ex- celled at Columbia, Harvard, Hopkins, Tulane and other institutions. And of these, three have received their doctorates and others are research fel- lows in their respective branches. Others, still, are teachers of science and practitioners of their professions. Within the short life of the Uni- versity, graduates from the School have reflected credit on the institution and have become useful and cultured citizens. 0 b iP School of Commerce 9 This School consists of a full four years ' course in studies relating to practical business administration and industrial life. Upon its successful completion the de- gree of Bachelor of Commerce is conferred. It is the f - A only professional school at the University. It was or- f ganized in the Fall of 1919 by Dr. Arthur S. Libby, who H| then took the office of Dean of the School of Commerce f and Business Administration. Mrs. Cora Steele Libby is associate professor. The School with its allied departments has as its central idea the pre- senting of a course of study designed to give an adequate and thorough preparation for an executive business career. Among the outstanding graduates are: William Nunn, professor of Economics at University of Pittsburgh and Joseph Wilson, professor of Economics at University of Florida. ; ' timcQMG Wr School Of Literature And Journalism The Department of Literature and Journalism is planned for three ends: to provide a liberal education as a preparation for life, to provide a groundwork for stu- dents who wish later to pursue higher work in post- graduate schools, and to provide a career and means of livelihood for such students as are able to make the grade in any literary activity. The chief method of the department is to encour- age constructive work, in the belief that a student is a growing organism that grows by original work, not a sort of tank to be filled up with know- ledge. Hitherto dramatic training and newspaper practice have engaged most attention but not to the neglect of other literary forms. Among outstanding graduates of the school are: James Larwood, publicity agent for airship corporation in New York; Oliver Gramling, with Associated Press in New York; Fred Stewart, stage manager of Stuart-Walker Company in Virginia; James Burns, make-up and sports editor of Atlanta Georgian; John Ottley, Jr., officer of Pitcairn Airship corporation ; Bernard Dekle, officer of National City Bank of New York. School Of Liberal Arts The School of Liberal Arts has always been small. When the institution was opened in 1916, it was recog- nized that the commercial spirit in Atlanta was strong and that it would be useless to attempt to force all stu- dents to take Latin or Greek. So the studies of this School were made elective. The department has always had some fine students. In the first year we had the largest Latin class in our history — Powell, Moye, War- Martin, Mattox, Stokeley, Northcutt, States Jacobs and a The Greek classes have been still smaller. Among the most brilliant students were the Parish twins, who took the third and fourth years of the Greek course simultaneously. An at- tempt is now being made to popularize the School by allowing a wider range of selection so as to include the modern languages as well as the ancient, and by offering classes for beginners in Latin. ren, Maddox, few others. SAh % ? tuRcrmcBjsm School of Education The School of Education from a vocational viewpoint meets the needs of those expecting to teach. From a cultural viewpoint it presents the needs of those desiring a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the mind and heart especially as it relates to all forms of human con- tact problems. H The first graduate in the school was Miss America Woodberry in the class of 1921. Since then a large num- ber of the Atlanta teachers have received either the A.B., or the A.M., degree and about one hundred Atlanta teachers at present are enrolled in the department. The new curriculum is arranged so that the required professional courses are offered and the other subjects are so arranged that the stu- dent may concentrate in either one or two lines, thus fitting him or her especially for good teaching in high schools. [? fik TW School of Secretarial Preparation The department was organized last year for the ben- efit of the following students: Those who wish to en- ter the business world in the capacity of skilled assist- ants to those in the executive positions; for ofRce man- agement and the like; for those preparing to teach the commerical subjects in the high schools and colleges; for young ladies who are preparing for work of a literary nature, or as social secretaries; and as an aid to those majoring in journalism. The full course comprises four years of work in which languages and other subjects with a cultural trend are stressed as well as the skilled subjects expected in such a course. At the close of the first two years of work, provided a record has been established for scholarship, character and reliability, on request, a Certificate of Profic- iency will be granted. This is not to encourage a premature capitalization of acquired skills but more as an incentive to complete the four years of work for the diploma and the degree. tHRCDMGlB W firVflf -% i Officers and Instructors George Murphy Miss Virginia O ' Kelley Miss Mary Feebeck Mrs. Sallie Poole STUDENT INSTRUCTORS Biology Department .

W :izaflmGHaM ' CLASS HISTORY By Evelyn Silverman On a September morning four short years ago, some Unk one hundred and twenty Mothers and Dads smiled brave- H ly as they bade fond farewell to their sons and daughters, Y ▼ off to college — to Oglethorpe! Sons and daughters from pC modest farmhouses, pretentious country homes and fash- ionable city residences — all mingling together, determined Hj HH to seek knowledge — and the truth. With the enthusiastic aid of the Sophomores, the class of ' 29 was whipped into shape, as it were. And ever since it has displayed an indominable fighting spirit that makes for success. Hayward Thompson, at the first class meeting, was elected president of the rats. Haywood Clement led the class in its second year; Thompson again the third year, and Stanley Pfefferkorn guided its destinies during the senior year. On the athletic field, the men of the class of ' 29 distinguished them- selves. Many of them held varsity berths the memorable year that Ogle- thorpe defeated Georgia Tech on Grant Field. Among the wearers of the 0 in this class are Haywood Clement, Jimmie Sims, Lindsey Vaugh- an and Jake Malsby. On the baseball diamond we were represented by Captain Erskine Thompson, Howard Lawson, Jimmie Sims, Marion Anderson, Lindsey Vaughan and Manager John Crouch. Clemen t, the athlete, and Gillman, the manager, upheld the class reputation on the basketball court. Mary X. Gunter was Captain of the Co-ed squad for two consecutive years. The class of ' 29 did much to contribute to dramatic art. Earl Black- well, an officer in the Player ' s Club for three years, originated the Petrel Follies and wrote The Temporary Vamp which was produced at the Erlanger Theater on the annual spring production bill. Jake Sutton and Paul Madden are two of the most accomplished actors of this class. In campus literary activities, Hayti Thompson is an outstanding fig- ure. In his freshman year he was elected to the board of editors on the guaasacBaM el stormy Petrel, and continued to be a contributor to tlie paper for three years. He was elected Editor-in-chief of this weekly paper in his junior year, and gave the college a season of fearless journalism which was in- strumental in bringing about several commendable movements. As edi- tor of the Yamacraw, Hayti has shown that he ' s a fighting Irishman with the will to win. Homer Gramling, Leonard Hill, James Howe, Clarence Wells and Evelyn Silverman saw service on the Petrel staff as reporters and assist- ant editors. Ray Todd has been both writer and printer for the paper, having worked in the Printing Office during his entire college career. Louis Gillman acted as business manager of the Stormy Petrel for two years; Stanley Pfefferkorn assisted him as business manager of the Yam- acraw. Beverly Irwin, veteran debator, with Hayti Thompson, James Howe and Allan Watkins, represented the class on the Debate Council. Their keen young analytical minds and commanding deliveries have won for Oglethorpe several intercollegiate debates. The highest award for scholastic attainment that the university can offer — the coat-of-arms sweater — was won by Stanley Pfefferkorn, Charles Pittard, Thyrza Perry and Bob Shaw, who is also a member of the Phi Kappa Delta honorary scholastic fraternity. In the campus musical activities, Bob Shaw takes the center of the stage as the gifted director of the Oglethorpe Orchestra. And Homer Gramling, Beverly Irwin and Jack Murphy have made music these past years that some musically inclined co-eds will never forget. LeRoy Tebo capably managed the Glee Club. The High Victory was an outstanding achievement of the past year. The seniors of the Commerce Department played an important part in the management of the J. M. High Company on that red-letter day in Decem- ber when the Petrels again defeated the Yellow Jackets, this time in the field of business administration. The members of the class of ' 29 who acted as student instructors in various departments were: Stanley Pfefferkorn, Leonard Hill, Hilary Bryson, Earl Blackwell, Hale Kellogg, Annie Belle Wills, W. W. Hill, E. B. Hill, Nellie Kate Noel, George Nowell and Antionette Brown. Looking back over this record of the Class of ' 29, we see always the names of its leaders. But we must not forget those names that do not appear ; those men and women who have worked for their class and Alma Mater earnestly, honestly and conscientiously, preferring to be a part of the harmonious background of the glorious panorama of the college ca- reers of American Youth. We have fought a good fight, We have finished our course, We have kept the faith. ' (P gizaamc CT n CLASS POEM i 1 ' [p X Our Toast By Eaton B. Hill Come, men, let us drink a toast today In water sparkling clear, From the old red hills of Georgia That Oglethorpe held dear; Let us clink our glasses and hold them high, Let IIS smile, no need for tears, — We must bid each other o glad goodbye As we go forth to meet the years. Let us pledge our toast to Oglethorpe, Our Alma Mater ' s name; Let us pledge our best to Oglethorpe The man who sought no fame. But left a glorious heritage And wealth beyond the sea. To find a home in an untried land For those less blest than he. We shall drink to his nobility, His justice and love of truth, A7id to those who follow after him, — Jacobs, Libby, Routh; Men who live for others, — Not for themselves alone, — Whose lives will stand the test of time. And the light of the judgment throne. And then in lighter vein,_ we ' ll toast Our co-eds sweet and fair. In the light of whose smiles full nuiny a may Has called a triangle a square, ' Fore teachers, stern and critical, Im,mune to charms like these; But were they really? — We have doubts But just forget it, — please. Come closer lads, let us drink today To the class of ' 29; Who can tell what the future holds? Or the gift of fate divine? Whatever may be, we will stand like men, Our goal shall be high and true. Let us drink to the class of ' 29 — Those who shall dare and do. H ? tumn G CBm Senior Class Officers Stanley Pfefferkorn President Louis Gillman Vice-Presidejit Luther M. Davenport ....

With vision and courage, man ' s strength has essayed To wage the good fight, soul-free, unafraid. The body will falter, the life-spark will wane But accomplishment lives; man dies not in vain. The work he has built, the good he has done. Lives on though the body has withered and gone. Oh, why should the spectre of death sear his soul? God ' s still in his heaven; God ' s throne is his goal. From the plain to the mountain, man ' s footsteps have trod. From the slough of despair to the heights, which is God.

Benson t Of one hundred and twenty-three freshmen who en- bIt tered in 1926, only thirty-two remain. As Hannibal ' s men fell by the wayside in crossing the Alps, so members of Sjpr our class have fallen in the struggle of three years of col- , % lege. We, who have survived the struggle, are proud as t k we are a chosen few and so, with our heads held high, H A we are marching onward toward our goal. Spiritually, mentally, and physically, we have progi-essed since we iirst entered Oglethorpe — now we are Juniors. Let us stop and take a retrospective view of our achievements since we first came. As a class we have always taken the initiative and as Soph- omores we abolished the time-worn tradition of cutting hair. In athletics we played a leading role. On the 1928 football squad we were represented by Amos Martin, Harold Coffee, Charles MacLaughlin, Asa Wall, Harry Feinberg, Curry Burford, Hoke Bell; Lyman Fox, Cy Bell and Charles Aldridge. In 1927 we produced eight letter men and in 1926 nineteen of our men made numerals. For the past two years we have had three men on the track team, Blanford Eubanks, Fred Snook and Lyman Fox. On the basketball team we have Charles MacLaughlin, Harry Feinberg, Cy Bell and Blanford Eubanks, while in baseball we are represented by Asa Wall and Amos Martin. As individuals make the history of a class it is only fair that a few outstanding members be named here. First on the roll is Bryant Arnold, master debater, editor-in-chief of the Stormy Petrel and president of the class. Next is Banty Eubanks, our song-bird, who has gone down in Petrel History as one of the most versatile track devotees in the history of the school. Then there is Vivian McGowan, representative in the or- chestra; Fred Snook, advertising manager of the school publication, and Cy Bell, noted football star. Those foremost in scholarship and win- ners of the coat-of-arms sweater are Harold Coffee, Eolise Tanksley and William Powell. Now, as we are approaching our Senior year, we can only say that if the past is a key to the future then great things may be expected of the class of 1930. im (P tSMnmcis Class Poem By James Jackson The goal is in sight. All the best in us has been used To make our future bright. Some times we thought the traveling bad, The mountains high; Sharp stones bruised Our pride, ' till never was as sad A plight as some who lost the way And wandered through the night. Now we stand on level ground; See Our stock rise with the sun? ' Tween you and me ' For three long years we ' ve stood the test, I think we ' ve done our level best.

So to what justification have we for the sweeping assertion that Oglethorpe in all its forms — be it mental, moral or spiritual — is constantly changing, shaping and mounting to a higher peak of success. Retrogarding into the clear and unforgotten pass, we see ourselves as Freshmen — dumb, humble and unsophisticated. But, regardless, that year was a lesson to all of us and it will never be foi-got- ten. One hundred and eighty-two strong, hailing from the wide open spaces, we came to drink of the fountain of knowledge, many drank, others sipped, few inhaled, and those who refused were disposed of. Un- fortunately about sixty-seven of our Freshman brothers and sisters failed to return — this gap was somewhat filled by the appearance of about fifteen new Sophomores. Among them were Byrd, Dennis, Jackson, Whitaker, Hawley and others. In the field of athletics our class has indeed, furnished many valu- able men, namely: Herrin, Fulton, Riddle, Therrell, Holcomb, Kimbrell, Golden, Rabon, Church, Adams, Woodward, Brooks, Everett, Emerson, and a score of others. Looking here and there we find that the Sophomores prove to be an important factor in every branch of activities offered at Oglethorpe. Thus in this class we find much talent and a glorious future. By means of a talk given to the class by Dr. J. F. Sellers, whom all of us admire, the class held a meeting, headed by President Bridges, and concluded that hazing and the cutting of hair should be abolished — thus another step was taken in the making of a greater and nobler institution, by the abolition of the fear and distractions of hazing. Terminating towards the golden fleece we struggle and look forward to the time when we shall be initiated into a new era of life. The wolf stands at the gate awaiting our arrival, the time is two years. izaamcBaM CHARLES McKISSICK Mac A A T Carrabelle, Florida. JEROME DERMONT TRIPLETTE Doc A 2 Lenoir, North Carolina.

Freshmen will remain in dining hall! Such were the stern commands heard by one hundred and eighty-two bewildered freshmen on the morning of September 23. Like all freshmen have been and always will be, we resented the lower station in life because it was a tremendous setback — from a lorded Senior in high school, accustomed to an upper-hand, to a lowly freshman who must serve superiors! However, the resentment was short-lived. We soon realized our importance for our big brothers had gone to the trouble to map out a definite program. First, traditions were impressed such as the learning of songs and yells, smoking of corn pipes, last, but not least, forbidden to check with the fair Co-eds. This restriction was immediately neglected. But the violation did not help our standing with the Sophs, or for that matter, the other side of our laps, either. Our first class meeting was held in the auditorium and the following ofiicers were elected : President, Harry Emanuel ; Vice-President, Charles Gardner; Secretary and Treasurer, Jeff McMillan; Student Council Repre- sentative, Edward Durst. And then came the Freshman minstrel ! The black faces amused the student body for more than an hour and in fine fashion, too. Julian Stoval acted as interlocutor while Whiteside, Luther, Mincey and Taylor carried away honors as end men. The class was well represented in the orchestra with three mem- bers, namely: Charles Bourne and Jeff McMillan, saxophones and Ollie Nail, trumpet. In athletics we made a good showing. The teams of the three major sports should furnish excellent material to the varsity squads of the com- ing school year. The freshman teams certainly stepped about and carried away many victories. We are proud of Oglethorpe and expect to help in making it the great- est college in the South, yea, even in the whole wide world, and we are going to drive into the rats of next year that grand old Petrel spirit so that they, too, will help to carry on this institution. But let us add these few words of warning to the Class of ' 33: Beware, you freshmen, for revenge is sweet! timcnKGi M SM uaamcBS r class roll SM fTf alison, eeorsia anderson, frank appling luke arnold, elizabeth baKwell h. bailey, victor barnes. w. j. baynes. bennett dumont bishoD, Joseph black, anita boone. bourne.

(P tunmRG csm lHUCDRGTSJim SM Class Poem By Reavis C. O ' Neal On dances now our boat of life to sunset, A-gliding down the sparkling sea of learning. Full nine months past, our sea . . .a rivulet, And we midshipmen, eager, young, and yearning. But blazoned now on each one ' s shield a token Of time and hours passed in servitude. Of tight sealed lips, no single word outspoken To break the enforced calm of solitude. What lies around yon greening bend, sweet comrades? Who knows what distant fate God holds in store? Make each wave from the prow of our frail vessel Twicefold do good before it strikes the shore. Henceforth, with chains of slavery ca st aside. We walk upright in brightness of the sun, That safe in harbor we may point with pride To tasks complete and know they were well done. Again, what lies beyond the nearing bend, my fellows? Bring forth red wine and freely let it run. Who knows what brings today or holds tomorrow.

HILL IVEY, OTTO imcn G CBm b ' iP Anent The Seminary AT the beginning of the school year of 1928 the Atlanta Theological Seminary group came to the campus of the University to continue its work during the transition of the school to Elon College with which institution it will affiliate in 1929. The Seminary was organized in 1901 with a small body of students. Its home was a farm house on the site purchased for the campus, 1032 Stewart Avenue, Atlanta. The student body continued to grow until the war called young men from all seminaries and colleges. The program has so enlarged in present years that it was necessary to affiliate with a college in order to carry on in a more efficient manner. It is Congregational in denomination but is non-sectarian in its teach- ing and has always opened its doors to students of all denominations. Dur- ing its existence, the Seminary has sent men to the pulpits of Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Evangelical, Christian and Holiness churches as well as its own Congregational churches. As the course of study will suggest, it is the aim of the Seminary to meet the widest possible needs of men and women preparing for the min- istry and other forms of Christian service. The Seminary recognizes the new day that calls for trained religious leadership of many kinds. By its charter and its purpose it is free to meet changing conditions in the life about it. The student body of Oglethorpe has made many friends among the young theologians and it is with regret that we see the Seminary move lo Elon College. f WW :iimnRG tM.m% (P A w[f Extension Classes THROUGH the untiring efforts of Dr. Herman J. Gaertner, who ably assisted in the resurrection of Oglethorpe, the extension classes of the University became a reality three years ago and since the organi- zation has been on a rapid increase. For the school year of 1928 more than seventy-five enrolled for the extension work leading to degrees of Master of Arts, Bachelor of Arts or work in the School of education. In order to make it more convenient for the students, a number of whom are teachers in the Atlanta Public School system, a majority of the classes are held in Atlanta. Classes in French, Biology, Chemistry and English are held on the campus on Saturdays. The overwhelming success and the encouraging results of the exten- sion classes in the past has become an incentive and officials are centering their attention to that phase of work. tHRdmc M Roll of Extension Students w BAIRD, AURA BARKSDALE, WILLIAM BENNETT, PEARL BRENNER, AUGUSTA BRINGHURST, MARY BROWN, IDA LEE CLAPP, HELEN CLEMENTS, WILLIE COOPER, MRS.

NORTH GEORGIA AGGIE GAME Thanksgiving marked the end of a rather hectic and rather unsuccessful grid- iron campaign for the Petrels of 1928. The only high spot in the entire season was the licking handed our ancient and time-honored rivals, — the Mercer Bears in Macon. Coach Robertson ' s lads flashed a most brilliant offense in whipping the North Georgia Aggies in the curtain-raiser on the campus 70 to 0. Those who knew and a great number of those who did not know, predicted a great season for Oglethorpe right at the start on the strength of the showing made against Adrian Maurer ' s out-fit. Coach Robertson started his second stringers against the boys from Dahlonega and although they were only scrubs they accounted for four to uchdowns ere the regulars relieved them at the close of the first period. The remainder of the game was nothing short of a track meet with the two scions of speed, Cy Bell and Lyman Fox, running wild. These two aces were ably assisted, however, in the ball toting de- partment by Amos Martin and Clau Herrin. nd Malsbi) ' iP tuRccmc t HIGH POINT COLLEGE The following Saturday the Petrels experienced no real difficulty in subduing the purple-clad warriors of High Point College 33 to in Asheville, North Carolina. Once again the Oglethorpe offense was unstopped and, except for two or three costly fumbles when touchdowns were inevitable, the score would have been much larger. Claud Herrin broke into the limelight during this game when he replaced Cy Bell in the second half and immediately proceeded to gallop for a touchdown. Lyman Fox and Cy Bell were once more shining lights in the offensive play while a sophomore by the name of McKissick was a tower of strength on the defense, backing up the line in a most satisfactory manner. tiiM.cimG CQm liii bs = j i J ' ! ' ip LOYOLA UNIVERSITY The Loyola Wolfpack, fresh from a near-victory over the famous Notre Dame Irishmen, blew into Atlanta with one of the most powerful offenses ever seen at Spiller Field. When the smoke of battle had cleared Oglethorpe was found to be on the short end of a 33 to 6 score. The Dixie Flyer, who in private life is known as Bucky More, was the ace in the hole for the lads from New Orleans. This in- dividual had scored two touchdowns before the game was ten minutes old. After the devastating first quarter things began to look a little more encouraging for Coach Robertson ' s men. Herrin scored Oglethorpe ' s lone touchdown after a nice gallop of some 30 or more yards late in the third period. The work of Fox, Bell, Herrin and McKissick stood out in the back-field while Sims, Fulton and Clement were potent factors in the showing of the line. timcimG t W% ST. XAVIER COLLEGE Saturday, October 20, found the Petrels doing battle with the St. Xavier Musket- eers in Cincinnati, Ohio. Fumbles on the part of Oglethorpe proved fatal and the Birds were forced to bow to the enemy 9 to 6. Successive fumbles in the backfield stopped two nice Oglethorpe drives goalward in the first period. The first quarter was rather dull and uneventful save for the exhibition of fumbling that was put on by the Petrel backs. The second quarter, however, opened with a bang when St. Xavier recovered another Oglethorpe fumble in mid-field and on two plays were on the Birds ' 5 yard line. On the next play the Ohio lads took the lead 7 to 0. Oglethorpe, undaunted by this twist of fate, pro- ceeded to work the ball down the field when Fox returned a punt 30 yards before being brought to earth. On a pretty 25-yard pass flipped by Herrin to Fox the lat- ter raced the remaining 35 yards for a touchdown. A beautiful rally in the closing minutes of the last period brought the fans to their feet. This drive started from Oglethorpe ' s own 20-yard line when Cy Bell passed to Herrin for 12 yards follow- ed by two nice passes from the hands of Herrin, one an 8-yard heave to Cy Bell, and the other a 15-yard toss to Wall. By grabbing a punt and dashing 64 yards through the entire Maryville team with but one minute left to play, Cy Bell saved his mates from defeat, the game ending to 6 tie. Just why Oglethorpe couldn ' t hand a decisive licking to the Maryville High- landers is not known unless, perhaps, the game with Georgia Tech slated for the next Saturday was uppermost in their minds. Anyway it was the great work of Cy Bell that saved the day. The Petrels seemed to be able to gain at will until a certain point had been reached near the Maryville goal line and there the advance usually stopped. Claud Herrin and Amos Martin romped up and down the field like a pair of young colts while Jenny Woodward was a regular wheelhorse. Cy Bell of course accounted for his usual number of good runs even had he not returned that punt for 60 odd yards. Burford, Clement, Sims, Fulton and Coffee were out- standing in the line. KizaamcB M f? GEORGIA TECH The Oglethorpe-Tech game ran true to form with the Petrels holding the nation- al champions to two lone touchdowns for three long quarters only to have Tech ' s su- perior reserve material run rough-shod over them during the last period to win, 33-7. The Petrels, as has been the case for the past three years, were leading the Yel- low Jackets at the half, 7 to 6 and it was not until late in the third quarter that Tech was able to take the lead 13 to 7. Coach Robertson ' s lads have the distinction of be- ing the first team to actually earn a touchdown against the Golden Tornado last year. Oglethorpe ' s score came in the latter part of the second period when several wall directed plays and two forward passes turned the trick. The touchdown was made on a line-buck right through Tech ' s million dollar line for three yards with Herrin carrying the ball. It was Cy Bell, however, who carried the ball to the three yard marker on a pretty pass thrown by Herrin. Jake Malsby at center played the best game of his career stopping Tech plays time and again before they started. Jimmie Sims played his usual good game at tackle as did Curley Fulton at guard. Monk Clement proved himself to be a really great end by stopping the famous end runs of Tech ' s Ail-American half-back, Mizell. In the back-field the work of Fox, Herrin, Woodward and Bell was outstand- ing. immjiG cnm MERCER UNIVERSITY The one bright spot during an otherwise gloomy season was the way Oglethorpe spanked Mercer down in Macon on Armistice Day 15 to 0. The score does not indi- cate the complete whipping that the Bears were forced to take at the hands of their bitterest rivals. Oglethorpe jumped into the lead in the first few minutes of play when Mercer fumbled on their own 40 yard line and Asa Wall broke through, scooped up the ball and lumbered down the field for a touchdown. Burford, Coffee, Clement, Sims and Malsby played exceptionally fine football in the line while the old faithful trio of ball- toters, Bell, Herrin and Martin were the offensive heroes. Martin particularly was right and it was through his efforts that much of the yardage was gained. His kicking, too, was far above the average. Charlie McKissick was a terror to the Bears when on defense backing up the line like a veteran rather than a green sopho- more. t ' iimxmGimm PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE Oglethorpe, in an attempt to play two games in one week, suflfered from the ef- fects of over-work and dropped a hard fought game to Presbyterian College 7 to 6, on Friday, November 16. The victory over Mercer the preceding Monday seemed to have sapped the strength of the Petrels to such an extent that they were not able to make any marked headway against the stubborn defense that Presbyterian present- ed that day. Oglethorpe ' s score came early in the first period when Jake Malsby intercepted an enemy pass and raced 45 yards to a touchdown. The failure to kick the goal cost Oglethorpe the game. The Petrels, however, maintained this six point lead until the final period when a sustained attack netted the Presbyterians a touchdown, the extra point giving them the struggle. : :iiaamcBaM CHATTANOOGA UNIVERSITY The Petrels once more figured in one of the most heart breaking losses on record when they were forced to take the count up in Chattanooga on Thanksgiving 34 to 19. Oglethorpe started off with a rush when on line plays and end runs they placed the ball on ' Nooga ' s two yard line right after the kick-off only to have the chance to score again taken away by a fumble. And so the ball see-sawed back and forth during the entire first period and most of the second. It wasn ' t until late in the second quarter that the Birds were able to push a touchdown across when Jenny Woodward, after a series of bull-like rushes at the line, crossed the final white line to tie the score 7 to 7. With a scant 45 seconds left in the first half, Chattanooga heaved a long pass that was good for a touchdown. Oglethorpe came back in the second half and scored two touchdowns before the lialf was eight minutes old. Oglethorpe held this advantage up until the last ten min- utes of the game when an intercepted pass thrown by Herrin started the Moccasins on a scoring spree that put the game on ice for Chattanooga. The playing of Sims in this game earned for him a place on the All-S. I. A. A. aggregation. Once more Jeff Burford stood out in the line as a guard of no mean ability. Woodward, Herrin and Cy Bell did most of the ball carrying for the Birds and did it well. Had Herrin not been hurt in the first half things might have been different at the end. 9 [? tnnduiGB m 1928 Season Results September 28— Petrels 70; October 6— Petrels 33; October 13— Petrels 6 ; October 20— Petrels 6 ; October 27— Petrels 6 ; November 3 — Petrels 7 ; November 12 — Petrels 15; November 16 — Petrels 6 November 29 — Petrels 19 North Georgia Aggies — Campus.

Mercer Turns Back Oglethorpe In Hard-Fought Basketball Game WW ZnncnRGi Ml Basketball 1929 r-|-rHE basketball season of 1929 could not be termed successful by even the most I enthusiastic Petrel supporters. Only twelve games were played by Coach Rob- ertson ' s men and of that number the Birds were able to win only three. Shortly after the Christmas holidays, with only five practices under their belts, Oglethorpe trotted down to the Atlanta Athletic Club to engage those individuals on the hardwood. During the first half the A. A. C. lads were given the scare of their young lives when Harry Feinberg and Claud Herrin rained in shots from all angles of the floor. The guarding of Clement and Bell held the Clubbers mighty close, too, making scoring almost impossible. The score at half time found the A. A. C. just two points ahead — 17 to 1.5. Pat Stephens and Company, however, came back with a vengeance during the second half snowing the Petrels under, the final score being 58-30. Harry Feinberg was high point man for Oglethorpe. Oglethorpe had a little better luck in the next game with Joe Hutson ' s North Georgia Aggies in Dahlonega when Claud Herrin found himself and looped the ball through the basket for a total of 27 points. The game was hard fought most of the way and it wasn ' t until the closing minutes of play that the Birds were able to pile up a lead that assured victory. Kid Golden, substituting for Feinberg, was second high point man for the day with 10 points. The following week our Petrels invaded the lair of the Mercer Bears and came out on the short end of a 41 to 33 score. This game between these two bitter riv- als was a battle royal from start to finish and it was not until the final whistle that Coach Robertson ' s boys were forced to bow in humble submission. Herrin was once ' iP [? MONK CLEMEWT Cen i:er timnmc m again the high scorer for the night with 17 points to his credit. The defensive play of Clement, Bell and Therrel kept Mercer from piling the score. Oglethorpe dropped two more games in as many nights on a trip to the southwestern part of the state. Columbus Y headed by Jack Massey, barely nosed the Birds out 47 to 45 in the first of the series and the soldiers of Ft. Benning won the second 35 to 26. The loss of Clement may have had something to do with the reversals. Ilerrin far outdistanced the field in the first of these games when he turned in 22 points for his share of the evening ' s work. Riddle was sec- ond to Herrin with 8 points while Goldin was third with 7 points to his credit. In the game with Uncle Sam ' s guardians, Herrin garnered 16 points to step out in front once more. Therrell ' s guarding was an added feature of this scrap, hold- ing the soldier star All-Anieri- c a n forward, Johnny Re to 6 points. HARRY PEINBERG Forward Oglethorpe broke the losing streak by nosing out the fast Jewish Progressive Club quintet ir. Atlanta 28 to 25 in one of the fastest games the Birds engaged in all year. Monk Clement car- ried off the scoring honors in this game with 9 points while Feinberg was a close second with 7 markers. Bell played a beautiful floor game, taking the ball up the floor on numerous occasions from under his own basket to put it in a scoring position. tiimDRGi3jim E The next game was dropped to Chattanooga after the Petrels had held a substantial lead throughout most of the first half. The ' Noogans put on a second half rally that quickly erased the lead held by Oglethorpe. The final score was 3.3 to 20. It required an extra five minute period for Mer- cer to win their return game in Atlanta the score being dead-locked 30 to 30 at the end of the regular playing time. During the extra period Mercer sank three long shots while the best the Petrels could do was to get one and so once more Mer- cer forced the Birds into sub- mission. Her- rin with 14 points and Fein- berg with 8 led the attack for Oglethorpe. The return game with J. P. C. was a rough and tumble af- fair with the clubbers getting revenge for the licking handed them earlier in the season. The Birds were ten points behind at half time and from then on they dropped farther and farther back, the final score being 55 to 39. Herrin, who had been badly off form in the last few games, seemed to come to life and drop- ped a total of 20 points through the mesh. Once again the floor work of Cy Bell was outstanding. The North Georgia Aggies were again conquer- ed this time by a much smaller score than the first. Herrin and Bell were the big guns in the 44 to 40 win, the former getting 16 points while the latter amassed a total of 12. (? ' MUTT RIDDLE Forward f? ' :- CHARLES MSLAUGHLIN Guard. t ' RiimGHM.ad Chattanooga came to Oglethorpe all set to make it two in a row over the Petrels and after a decid- edly close game they succeeded in accomplishing their purpose. The score was 27 to 22. In the grand finale Coach Joe Bean ' s A. A. C. wonder boys handed Oglethorpe a neat lacing, 51 to 16. There wasn ' t anything outstanding in this game unless it was the regularity with which Herrin and Feinberg missed shot after shot at the basket. Bell, Therrell and Clement played their usual good defensive game although the score wouldn ' t indicate that the Petrels even had any guards in the game. Basket ball at Oglethorpe has never been a howling success from the very first year which was in 1926 up until now. Al- though the Pet- rels have played some mighty fine games on the court at times they have never approach- ed the records made in t h e other sports on the campus. LYLE KRATZ Guard The Fresh- man team of 1926 whipped everything in this part of the south and were counted upon heavily to make basketball history before their life at Ogle- thorpe was ended. Monk Clement and Cy Bell were the only ones of that Frosh squad to play three years of varsity basketball, the rest having dropped out of school one by one as the years roll- ed by. The prospects for next year ' s team are the best that they have been since 1926 and it is hoped that the jinx which has followed the Petrels se doggedly for the past four years can be shaken z!;k 1171CDMGWSm% Claud Herrin, the star of this year ' s quint, still has two more years to go and should this blonde gentleman show as much form in 1930 as he did this past year he will rank with the best basket bailers in the south. The task of filling the shoes of Monk Clement next year is not going to be an easy task for Clem has been an outstanding per- former for the past three years, captaining the team in his sophomore year. Harry Feinberg did not have as successful a year on the hardwood in 1929 as he did the year before but at that he made a very capable running mate for Herrin at forward. Irish turned in some pretty nice games during the early part of the year, espec- ially in the sea- sons ' opener with the A. A. C. out- fit. Mutt Rid- dle played the role of chief sub- stitute to both Herrin and Fein- berg and played it in a most satisfactory and pleasing man- ner. More will be heard from this individ- ual ere his days as a Petrel are over. Cy Bell played better basket ball this year than at any other time during his career. His floor work was of the highest order and it was through his efforts principally that the rest of the club were able to score for Cy had a knack of taking the ball off the enemies ' backboard and working it up the floor. This past year was perhaps the most disastrous season that Oglethorpe has had since the begin- ning of this sport, winning only three games out of fourteen played. porward [? tuRomG osm 1929 Roster OFFICERS Harold J.

The Stormy Petrels played a twenty-two game schedule, eigh- teen of which were with college teams while the other four were with professional teams of high standing. The Birds got off to a bad start when they dropped two games to the Atlanta Crackers and a pair to the Co- lumbus Foxes within five days. In the first college tilt Oglethorpe was forced to bow to its bitter rival, Georgia Tech, on two occasions. Coach Anderson ' s lads started scoring early in the first game holding a three run lead up until the eighth inning when Tech came from behind win- ning by one lone run, 5 to 4. Asa Wall hit Coach Anderson and Managtr Thrash. timcnRG M% one over the right field fence with two on to give the Birds three runs in the second inning. Lawson pitch- ed nice ball all the way. In the sec- ond game, with the Techites the same situation was in vogue with the Petrels holding what looked like a comfortable lead only to have it wip- ed out late in the game with Tech once more winning by one run, 11 to 12. Vaughn was right but no amount of masterly pitching could have won the game it seems. It just wasn ' t in the books for Ogle- thorpe to win. The next two games on the base- ball menu were with the University of Kentucky, Oglethorpe winning one and tying the other. In the first game the Birds won handily 7 to 5 and were in a fair way to win the second with a two run lead up until the first of the ninth when Kentucky tied it up. The boys from the Blue- grass state had to leave to catch a train with the score still knotted at 4 to 4. Things began to look bad for Oglethorpe once again when on a week ' s trip they lost four straight, two to Furman in Greenville, S. C, and two to Davidson College in Con- cord, N. C. But by winning the last game of the trip from Wofford in Spartanburg, the Petrels started a winning streak which carried them through eight games before they were again toppled. During these eight wins the Birds amassed a total vfe uaamcHaMI of 88 runs for an average of eleven runs per game. Not so bad! The Mercer Bears were taken in- to camp on three occasions during this winning reign of the Peachtree Road collegians by the scores of 11 to 2, 14 to 8 and 7 to 6. These wins alone would have given Ogle- thorpe a successful season in view of the intense spirit that exists be- tween these two institutions. In the second game the Birds hit safe- ly exactly sixteen times. Tennessee was the Anderson- men ' s next victim, falling 11 to 5 and 21 to 8. Vaughn pitched steady ball in the first game giving up a total of ten hits but keeping them so scattered that only five runs could be scored. Taliaferro furnish- ed the big thrill of the afternoon when he smacked one out of the lot in the first inning. Turner and Laird with a pair of hits apiece were the heavy stickers for the Petrels. The second game, with big Asa Wall on the mound at the start, looked like a track meet for Oglethorpe, the final score being 21 to 8. A total of 18 errors were made by both teams, Tennessee holding a slight edge with 10 mistakes to their credit. In the eighth inning Taliaferro and Joe Hutson got two hits apiece in one inning, which was a rather uni- que occurrence. Martin, Laird and Thompson were the big guns in the Petrel attack. Oglethorpe jumped on three timmRG nm . Howard pitchers in the first of a two game series for a grand total of 13 hits and 11 runs while the Howard Bulldogs had to be content with 7 hits and 4 runs. Vaughn and Hut- son did the pitching for the Birds, going 5 and 4 innings respectively. Besides pitching nice ball Vaughn also added his share in a hitting way by getting a triple and a double out of four trips to the plate. Brant Boswell also had a good day at the bat hammering out three safe hits out of five times at bat. The sec- ond game was not so easy for the Petrels to tuck away and it was not until the eighth that Oglethorpe got a one run lead, finally winning 5 to 4. Lawson did the twirling, pitch- ing almost air-tight ball except for one bad inning. In the last two games of the sea- son with Georgia down in Athens the Birds ran into a lot of grief. Vaughn pitched the first game and was going good until the umpire took a dislike to him and from then on they had to be right down the middle before said Mr. Umpire would call a strike. Just as soon as Lind- sey shoved his slants down the groove the Georgia Bulldogs prompt- ly smacked them out of the ball park or almost out of the park. Anyway Bill White ' s lads had plenty of trou- ble winning those two games despite the handicap under which the Pet- rels were laboring. The first one was lost by a one run margin while the second went down on the records 9 Wlf iiR€[mGB3im: t 10 to 7. Lawson pitched the sec- ond game and ran into almost as much trouble with decisions as did his teammate on the preceeding day. Coach Anderson made a pretty smart set of ball players out of the 1928 aggregation after all. The pitching staff, composed of Howard Lawson, Lindsey Vaughn and Joe Hutson, with Asa Wall pitching a few nice games on the side, was mighty effective. The infield with Turner on first, Boswell on second, Taliaferro at short and Martin on third was all that could be asked for. Laird, York and Wall did their share in the outfield. There never has been a time, since the founding of Oglethorpe University, that Coach Frank Ander- son has not had an exceptionally fine baseball aggregation. Present indi- cations are that the season of 1929 will be no exception to the prece- dent as set by the Petrels in years gone by. As we go to press Coach Ander- son ' s clan have participated in four baseball games, two with the Atlanta Crackers and two with our ancient and honorable rivals — Georgia Tech. In the series with Atlanta ' s entry in the Southern League, the Petrels were forced to bow to their superior and more experienced professional rivals in the first game but came back the next afternoon with a ven- geance, defeating the pros 8 to 4. Friday and Saturday of the same iP izaamcBaM week Oglethorpe and Georgia Tech played, the first game resulting in an 8 to 8 tie, play being called at the end of the ninth inning because of darkness. Saturday afternoon the Petrels played brilliant ball to defeat their opponents from North Avenue, 5 to 4. This victory over Tech help- ed to salve the wounds so often in- flicted on Oglethorpe on the gridiron. In the first game with the Crack- ers, Oglethorpe stayed in the lead for the greater part of the game and it was only a belated rally in the eighth inning that gave the pros the win- ning runs. Lindsey Vaughn pitched mighty good ball all the way and had it not been for that one bad inning, the eighth, the chances are that the Birds would have made it two over Atlanta. Howard Lawson did the twirling in the second game display- ing the same brand of baseball that Vaughn did the preceeding day. Oglethorpe collected a total of 28 hits in the two games with Mr. Spil- ler ' s men, 17 of which were gotten in the second game. Once more Vaughn did mound duty in the first Tech game holding the hard hitting Jackets to 8 bingles while his mates were collecting 10 off the deliveries of three Tech hurlers. Marion Anderson was the outstand- ing hero of this fir st game when he hit a home run with a man on first base. This circuit drive of Ander- son ' s drove in the tying run, his own run giving the Petrels a one run ad- TO 9 fr? liiRccmG oim% vantage. Asa Wall also got a four sacker in the fourth inning which helped very materially to overcome the four run lead that Tech got in the second inning. The second game was perhaps the more spectacular of the two for it was not until the first of the ninth that Oglethorpe gained a one run ad- vantage over the Jackets which prov- ed to be the margin of victory. Once again it was Marion Anderson that drove in the winning run. Howard Lawson did the pitching in this game holding the Techites ' hits so scatter- ed that little damage was done until the seventh inning when three men scored on two hits and two errors. Vaughn relieved Lawson in the ninth and it was through his own efforts that the Petrels were able to win. With one out and a man on second and third Vaughn raced clear over to the third base line to spear a pop fly which looked like a sure hit doub- ling the man on third base to end the game. Oglethorpe ' s infield has received a great deal of favorable comment from the sport writers of Atlanta during these early season games, most of them going so far as to say that it is the best college infield in the south. The infield composed of Holcomb on first; Anderson on sec- ond; Martin at short and Herrin on third, functions in big league style. Coach Anderson has a wealth of pitching talent in Vaughn, Lawson, iP guaamcBaM Byrd, Rabon, Golden, Holcomb and Wall. The outfield has been chang- ed so many times that it is hard to say just who are the regulars. Wall, Kimbrel, Reynolds, Riddle, Holcomb and McLaughlin have been doing the bulk of the work in the outer garden so far, and doing it well. George Everett has been alternating with Holcomb on first base and it is a toss up as to which one will get the call legularly. Behind the bat we find captain Wild boy Thompson, one of the finest college catchers in the south. Tommy has been showing a world of stuff so far this year and he is expected to go even better as the season advances. The Petrels dropped their first college game of 1929 to the Univer- sity of Tennessee on Hermance Field 9 to 7 after leading the Volunteers for seven innings. It was ' nt until the tenth frame that Tennessee was able to break the 7-7 dead-lock es- tablished in the eighth. Vaughn, on the mound for the Petrels, gave up 14 hits while his mates were only able to collect 9 safe bingles off the delivery of Bridges. Martin, An- derson and Holcomb, with two hits apiece were the heavy stick-wielders for Oglethorpe. Herrin ' s home run in the sixth was one of the high spots of the days activities. The following afternoon Coach Anderson ' s proteges evened things up with Tennessee by taking the second game 12 to 7. 9 nrf nafloacBaM: The 1928 Team COACH Frank B. Anderson, the dean of Southern baseball coaches, faced a difficult and puzzling problem m early March of 1928 when he began organizing another one of his famous ball clubs from a group of candidates who lacked the polish and gusto of usual Oglethorpe diamond turnouts. Nevertheless, the sage skipper scratched his chin and busied him- self. As a result he produced one of the fastest infields in Oglethorpe baseball history and, too, introduced several outstanding players who are destined to arouse baseball critics before their college careers end. Kid Jinx was the stumbling block throughout the season. Honestly, he blocked the path of the Petrels at nearly every turn. Just recall the two games with Tech and the University of Georgia series and you ' ll cer- tainly place that sickening mug of the Kid ! Fourteen letters were awarded to : Thompson, catcher ; Turner, first base; Martin, second base; Taliaferro, shortstop; Reynolds, third base; Wall, right field ; Laird, left field ; Boswell, centerfield ; Mims, utility man ; Lawson, York, Vaughn, Hutson, pitchers and Buddy Thrash, manager. i - And The 1929 Team AS the Yamacraw goes to press. Coach Anderson is again busy with his young, hustling ball players. In addition to the veterans of 1928 — ■ Thompson, Martin, Reynolds, Wall, Lawson, Vaughn — the skipper has a bunch of recruits from the Freshman team ready to fill the vacancies and another rosy season is ahead! Al Kimbrell, a backstop of ability ; Mutt Riddle, a pony in the outfield ; Hubert Holcomb, first baseman; Horace Byrd, portside pitcher; Melton Rabon, pitcher; Ed Emerson, infielder; George Everett, pitcher; Keith McLaughlin, outfielder; Marion Anderson, second baseman and a chip off the old block; Harry Adams, backstop; Ernest Golden and Jenny Wood- ward, outfielders and Claud Herrin, third baseman, are the new candidates. iujKxmcBjsml Mi 1928 Season Scores Atlanta Crackers 9.

I. A. A. MARfiS ?Mft % ARE BRO™ H.gh «wM fR CK ST RS Hmdu s . ' .t-Wm CONQUER FFDS uagmcHam: SM WW Track TRACK at Oglethorpe has been more or less a one man affair for the past two years with a slim, frail looking lad by the name of Blan- ford Eubanks playing the part of the Lone Wolf. While the Petrels have had a pretty respectable number of men out for track at one time or another through the seasons of 1927 and 1928 only two of these men have been able to place in a major meet. Hey wood Clement is the only other letterman in school besides Eubanks. As a freshman, Eubanks began breaking records when he cleared the bar in the high jump at the Southern Relays at 5 feet 10 7-8 inches and has been at it ever since. At the Southern Relays last spring Banty broke his own record in the high jump by getting over 5 feet 11 5-8 inches. A little later on he journeyed out to Lafayette, Louisiana, where he start- led the natives of that section by breaking two S. I. A. A. records and equaling a third, all in one day. Oglethorpe ' s track wizard clipped two- tenths of a second off the 120-yard high hurdle record stepping over the barriers in 15 seconds flat. His next feat was to clip four-tenths of a sec- ond from the 220-yard low hurdle record which had stood since 1923 when he ran this event in 24 4-10 seconds. In equaling the S. L A. A. high jump record of 5 feet 11 1-2 inches Eubanks jumped higher than the rec- ord he holds in the Southern relays. Then too he held the world ' s record for the 400 meters hurdles for ten minutes last summer while trying out for the Olympic team up in Boston, but alas some one came along and lowered the record for this event still more. ' (P t ' MiiiRGiwml [P Heywood Monk Clement, who acquired the sobriquet Apollo be- cause of his grace in handling the javelin and discuss, stepped from be- hind the scenes in 1928 and placed in the Georgia State meet, held at Emory, with javelin and discuss throws. He won third standing in both events. Georgia Tech, Emory, University of Georgia and Oglethorpe par- ticipated. During the track season the squad participated in several meets of this section. In a dual meet with the Federal Prison aggregation, the Birds walked away with the bunting. Those on the track squad were: Cy Bell, Claud Herrin, Dave Ther- rell, Jenny Woodward, Charles McKissick, Seaman Baskin, Fred Snook, Dekle Kirkland, Banty Eubanks, Hoke Bell, Lyman Fox, Monk Clement and Joe Dekle, manager. giiagmcHaM imB timnmc i m Winners Of Numeral FOOTBALL ■fP Luke Appling Frank Anderson, Jr. Dan Boone Tom Brown Parker Bryant Hugh Dodd Charles Gardner Harry Emanuel Richard Hamrick George Luther Carl Lett he Kenneth Myers Leslie Parham Charles Rogers Clay Sypert Julian Stoval Joe Simon Cecil Todd Charles Taylor Frank Whaley John Whiteside Harmon Wade Raymon Yeomans Charles Oliphant BASKETBALL Luke Appling Frank Anderson, Jr. Parker Bryant Dumont Bennett Hubert Kadel Marvin Keener Carl Leithe Jeff McMillan Charles Mitchell Cecil Todd BASEBALL Harry Adams Edward Emerson George Everett Dennis Riddle Ernest Golden Claud Herrin Hubert Holcomb Melton Rabon William Hill Albert Kimbrel Keith McLaughlin James Sullivan fl? tii7iamGiajim SM Freshman Football COACH Homer Chestnut guided his battle-scarred Freshmen— such they were, after facing the varsity in the first few scrimmages- through a successful season of it despite the many reverses in the way of injury, etc. The rats came through with five victories in eight contests. Not so bad, huh? The trio of losses were suffered in the enemy ' s backyard — one to a college freshman eleven and the remaining couple of prep school aggre- gations. The University of Chattanooga rats , tutored by Scrappy Moore, former Georgia luminary, inflicted the most stinging defeat of the season— a 25 to 12 victory in the Tennessee city on November 10. The Frosh ushered in the season along with the varsity on September 29, dishing out a sound lacing to the North Georgia Aggie reserves dur- ing the rest periods of the Varsity-Aggie game. The final audit of the freshman affair was 32 to 0. Dapper Myers and Lefty Sypert were the race horses of the day. The rats suffered their first defeat the following week-end in Rome, Georgia, bowing to the Darlington School machine by the score of 7 to 0. And the following week the Greenhorns were still laboring un- WH ' iP imamG my. der the strain because they were humbled in a like manner by the River- side Cadets in Gainesville — this time by a 6 to score. But the good times started again the following week when the Mad- ison A. M. team was smothered 70 to on Hermance field. The boys, not satisfied with the trimming handed the North Georgia Aggies, jour- neyed to Dahlonega and inflicted another defeat, 36 to 0. Carrollton A. M. was humbled in Carrollton on November 3 by a 26 to score. Then came the third defeat of the season at the hands of the Uni- versity of Chattanooga freshmen. It was a rough battle, believe us, and the crisis was not reached until late in the final half. But the rats redeemed themselves for the three reverses by manhandling the Mercer Freshmen in Hawkinsville on November 29 by the decisive score of 25 to 0. Coach Chestnut presented an exceptional Freshman team and from it are expected to be graduated several outstanding linemen ball toters to the varsity. The scores: September 29— Freshmen 32; October 6 — Freshmen ; October 13 — Freshmen 0; October 20— Freshmen 70; October 26— Freshmen 36; November 3 — Freshmen 26; November 10 — Freshmen 12; November 29 — Freshmen 25; North Georgia Aggie Reserves 0.

At least, the rats accomplished something that freshman teams in the past have utterly failed to do. And that was a victory over the Jew- ish Progressive Club Reds. The score was 27 to 25. But the Reds eased their feelings by administering defeats in a couple of return games. In Hubei ' t Kadel and Cecil Todd, the latter of Savannah High, Coach Campbell had a pair of remarkable scorers and, too, flashy and capable as floor workers. They topped the rat crew in performing throughout the season. All in all, the Frosh commanded situations in a half dozen of the ten games played during the season. Two defeats by the Atlanta Athletic Club Reds , one by the Jewish Progressive Reds and one by the Dai-- lington School, of Rome, constituted all of the bad sailing for the Baby Birds. Two of these defeats — by Darlington and J. P. C. Reds — were avenged. izaamcEHM [P The Freshmen had their biggest froHcs at the expense of the North Georgia Agricultural College Freshmen — once on the Dahlonega floor and a second time in the University gym. In the first encounter the Babies came out in front by a 63-25 score. They later enticed the Aggies to the campus and thereupon romped easily to victory by the overwhelming score of 70 to 11. The guarding of Frank Anderson, Jr., hailing from Darlington School in Rome, and Luke Appling, an Atlanta prep star, attracted quite a bit of attention and they are expected to add to the strength of the varsity in 1929-30. There was an unusual supply of forwards on the frosh team and Coach Campbell had very little trouble in finding men who could drop the ball through the mesh. They were: Keener, Bennett, Sypert, McMillan and Leithe. With the addition of several of the Freshman stars to the varsity line-up next year, Coach Roby should place a winner in the field.

' ' g Baseball A LTHOUGH rat teams in the other two major sports fared very l satisfactorily, the real glory of the year was left behind for the hust- ling lot of young baseball scalawags who were tutored by none other than genial Coach Harry Robertson, a baseball devotee of some ability himself. To tell the interesting feature first — the Frosh, limited to a small number of games, buckled down to brass tacks, as it were, and routed the opposition in regular order without once erring in the course of events. They nicked their willows five times for as many victories. To tell still another interesting feature — the Frosh humbled the first year nine of the University of Georgia and Georgia School of Technology in decisive fashion! To tell yet another feature — the Frosh, at this writing, have placed seven members of the clan on the 1929 varsity squad. They are: Herrin, third base; Kimbrell, catcher; Riddle, outfield; Holcomb and Everett, first base ; McLaughlin, outfield and Rabon, pitcher. l:iimnjiGiinm% [P One of the most promising lot of balltossers ever gathered at the University, the critics have said. They corroborated the statement in Freshman activity and those select few are making headway on the var- sity squad. The rats ushered in the season with a landslide victory over the Fulton High aggregation, coached by a former Oglethorpe performer, by the score of 12 to 2. The opening triumph was followed a week later by a 9 to 5 win over the Georgia Tech Baby Jackets. The rats invaded Athens, Georgia, later and applied the paint to the University of Georgia Bullpups. The score, 5 to 3. The Norcross, Georgia, High School (home of several big league players) was added to the list, 9 to 7. The rats closed the season with a shutout win over Fulton High in their second encounter. The audit was 8 to 0. The hurling duties were handled mostly by Rabon, Holcomb and Sul- livan. To say the least, these inexperienced Freshmen certainly did well. 1928 SCHEDULE Freshmen 12; Fulton High 2. Freshmen 9; Tech Frosh 5. Freshmen 5; Georgia Frosh 3. Freshmen 9; Norcross High 7.

Well, Boy Howdy ! When our spirited fraternity brothers and loyal sorority sisters, this time arrayed in battle formations of basketball aggregations, rubbed el- bows in the University gymnasium, the more scholarly boys and girls readily recalled the legendry tale of the ten years ' war by the Greeks, under Agamemnon, against the Trojans. For sometime in the past there has been a laxity in student athletic activity but the good work rerhained for the newly organized Inter-fra- ternity council, sponsor of both the Inter-fraternity and Inter-sorority basketball leagues. It was through the efforts of this organization that the two events were carried through so successfully. Through a period of more than two weeks the basketball fives of the five national fraternities and the three sororities waged mortal combat only to see the Alpha Lambda Taus and the Phi Kappa .Etas wobble through the thick of it all to capture the bunting. It was great fun, believe us, and the scarred belligerents as well as the excited spectators cried for more when festivities had reached the official close. All of which means that the 1928-29 league movement is a precedent which will be followed in the future by Oglethorpe students. The Inter-fraternity Council placed in competition two handsome lov- ing cups as a move to continue the activity in the future. One of the cups was donated by Dodson and Daniels, Atlanta jewelers, and the other purchased by the organization. Any team winning the league champion- ship twice will win permanent possession of the trophy. It will be remembered that in 1927-28 a similar movement was inau- gurated but toward the climax the league fell through with the Theta Kappa Nus topping the situation without suffering defeat. Let us repeat that the two leagues certainly aroused the spirit of the student body but what manner of man shall he be who sits and ponders during the procession of an inter-fraternity or inter-sorority basketball game ? • iP izaa2J5GBaM I [p m mm cAlpha Lambda Tau CHAMPIONS OF INTER-FRATERNITY LEAGUE DISPLAYING a superior brand of basketball throughout the league, the young Herculean fellows grouped above wended through the grind without suffering defeat, gaining possession of the trophy, offered by the Inter-fraternity Council, for the year. The declaration of victory came on the night of February 20, in the gymnasium when the Pi Kappa Phi quintet, runner-up, was humbled be- fore a packed house. The score was 35 to 21. It was a rugged game and the champions did not gain headway until the latter stages of the game when the vanquished weakened considerably. The personnel of the championship team: Turk and Farrabee, for- wards; Holcomb, center; Kimbrell and Baskin, guards; Brooks, Tucker, Vaughn and Burford, substitutes. %k fTf ii7imRGBJsm% f . «f Phi Kappa Eta CHAMPIONS OF INTER-SORORITY LEAGUE THESE young ladies, by virtue of a decisive victory over the Zeta Tau team, runner-up, became champions of the first Inter-sorority basketball league at the University. The bunting, a silver loving cup, was the goal of three sororities at the outset — Phi Kappa Eta, Zeta Tau and Chi Omega. The last men- tioned failed to score a victory and the championship tussle remained be- tween the first two. In their meeting, the Zeta Taus nosed out the Phi Kappa Etas by a close score but in the return engagement the champions uncorked a sur- prising brand of basketball and swept the opposition off its feet to win 15 to 4. Ruth Frost, captain, led the victors with thirteen of the total number of points registered. The members of the squad : Frost and Black, forwards ; Vardaman, center ; Fowler and Alison, guards ; Brown, McClung, Woodall, Williamson and Martin, substitutes. m(p timcimG i oAll-Star Team ?l !• FOLLOWING the championship game of February 20, between Alpha Lambda Tau and Pi Kappa Phi, the Stormy Petrel, school publication, selected an All-Star team with the aid of the coaches of the various teams. But allow the publication to tell the story: The Stormy Petrel, after carefully considering every man who par- ticipated in the Inter-fraternity basketball competition, makes these se- lections for the mythical all-star team. First, John Turk, Alpha Lambda Tau, won unanimously one forward berth. No explanation for this selection is needed for those who saw the final game. His work in that game placed him head and shoulders above the other forwards. Hutchinson, Theta Kappa Nu, because of his accuracy in scoring and general all-round style on the court, was awarded the second forward position. He was perhaps the most valuable man to his fraternity team. For center. Jack Mahoney, Kappa Alpha, was deemed sufficiently worthy. It was quite difficult to decide between him and Holcomb, A. L. T., who was given honorable mention for center. However, Mahoney succeeded in getting almost every tipoff in addition to scintillating de- fensive and offensive tactics. Kimball, A. L. T., and McSherry, Pi Kappa Phi, were versatile enough in all departments of the game to be awarded the guard places. Honorable mention as forward goes to Farabee, A. L. T., while Dodd, Delta Sigma Phi exhibited enough ability to tnerit mention as a guard. i g ' pnnanra DQrs.cJ. m.TKonvpsorv COLUMBUS, GEORGIA SPO-NSOR OF YAMACRANW DQiss QQary S. Guatcr ATLANTA..

The purpose of the Council, as stated in the constitution, leads to the creation of harmony and co-operation among the fraternities on the Uni- versity campus. It was stipulated in the constitution that should the organization be a failure or meet disapproval of any of the fraternities after one year of trial, then it shall be disbanded at the request of the dissatisfied fraternity without any financial loss. But if it proves successful and is allowed to exist more than one year, then it shall be considered a permanent organi- zation changeable only through the unanimous consent of the members of the Council.

The establishment of fraternities came with the birth of Oglethorpe in ante bellum days at Milledgeville, Georgia, then the capital of Georgia. In the year of 1859 chapters were established by Beta Theta Pi and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. But the movement was short lived when in 1861 the sons of the University marched to defend colors in the Civil War. Later, Oglethorpe was re-established, locating in Atlanta. Georgia. The resurrection was brief — 1870 to 1873 — due to the wave of financial disaster following the War. But a fraternity spirit was active and three chapters were installed. Kappa Aplha, Chi Phi and Phi Delta Theta in the order mentioned. The third period of the fraternity history began on May 17, 1918 when Pi Kappa Phi installed a chapter at the new University, located in Atlanta. Since that time, four other nationals, Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Phi, Alpha Lambda Tau and Theta Kappa Nu have come to the campus. The national fraternity which was founded on the campus of the Uni- versity is Alpha Lambda Tau. It entered the national fraternity field in 1920. A charter was granted on March 27, 1921. From 1916 to the time of the big adventure, the organization was known as the Alpha Lambda Club on the campus. Following the installation of Pi Kappa Phi on May 17, 1918, the Kap- pa Alpha chapter, established during the period from 1870-73, was revived. In 1920 Zeta Tau was founded to become the first sorority. Then the Alpha Lambda Tau Club was nationalized on March 27, 1921. In 1922 the Alpha Omega, a local club, was granted a charter by the Delta Sigma Phi. Chi Omega, second sorority, was established on September 8, 1924. Theta Kappa Nu was the next fraternity, coming to the campus in 1925. Phi Kappa Eta, a local sorority, is the latest, being founded in the year of 1927. aAfe timamGis W smmm H iP timamGi ' — - — — „ - Inter-Sorority Council OFFICERS Elizabeth McClung President Thyrza Perry Secretarii-Ti-easurcy MEMBERS Margaret Neuhoff Zeta Tau ....

(P It was in 1920 that a group of girls banned themselves together under the name of Zeta Tau sorority, leading the way to the founding of two other such organizations up to the present time. Two years later another female organization, Sigma Alpha sorority, was established. And another two years after its organization, it became the Sigma Gamma Chapter of the national sorority, Chi Omega. The chapter was installed on September 8, 1924. The third and latest sorority is Phi Kappa Eta, a local, which was organized in 1927. One of the most harmonious movements of the three sororities took place when an Inter-Sorority Council was organized for the promotion of closer relationship. The Council has been very active this year. timcimGw m ?

Routh, dean of the School of Literature and Journalism, the Oglethorpe University Debate Council functioned most successfully during the school year. Beverly Irwin and Bryant Arnold, president and business manager, respectively, arranged two outstanding debates for the spring of 1929 with Louisiana State University and Princeton University. Allan Wat- kins and Bryant Arnold won a unanimous decision over L. S. U., on Feb- ruary 12 at Oglethorpe and James B. C. Howe and Watkins defeated Princeton by a unanimous decision in the most excellent debate ever stag- ed here. For the first time in the history of the present council, women of the university were admitted. Misses Gertrude Murray and Helen Board- man were elected to the council. They did not take part in an actual debate but gained much valuable experience that will aid in their work next year. Just before the National election of the fall, Hayti Thompson and Beverly Irwin defeated Clarence Krebs and L. Blake Craft in a debate on the question: Resolved, that Alfred E. Smith should be elected president of the United States in preference to Herbert Hoover. Mr. Irwin and Mr. Thompson, defending the affirmative, won the decision by 2 to 1. . [? :izaamGBaw Smiik-Hoovef Smith-Hoover Debate Not since the heydey of Mitchell Bishop and Abe Orowitz, two Petrel debaters of whom we have heard much praise, has the student body wit- nessed such dramatic, not to say stirring, debating as was the exhibition presented by the Smith-Hoover orators in the auditorium on November 2. Words flew hot and fast in one of the best debates witnessed on the campus in years. The forensic artists were fired with a great enthusiasm for their respective candidates and, secondly, with a genuine dislike for the opposing candidate. The Al Smith defenders, Beverly Irwin and Hayti Thompson, came through with flying colors, winning a two to one decision. Mr. Herbert Hoover, president despite the loss on the campus, was ably defended by Blake Craft and Clarence Krebs, of the Atlanta Theological Seminary. Following the debate, students produced the red pencil and cast a bal- lot for one of the two candidates. Congenial Al Smith was the victor the second time within the hour, receiving 156 votes against 69 for Herbert Hoover. uaamcBaqpr ; {P tumimGBWm tuRnmcHM-Gd Vainaciti v 1 . f h Sy 61 J uaamcEta n W The Stormy Petrel The publication, as a property, is owned by the student body.

Its subscribers were first secured by personal solocitation in Atlanta and the state of Georgia. In addition to news about Oglethorpe, the magazine carries literary, historical and sociological articles customarily found in publications of that sort. The magazine was founded, edited and managed by Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, assisted at various times by a capable corps of writers, among others Dr. James E. Routh, dean of the School of Literature and Journal- ism at the University; Dr. Mary Brent Whiteside, poet and critic; Mr. Harry Harmon, poet and essayist and Virginia Stait (Winifred Russell), poet. %k fTf izaamcBaiH MAGAZ INE fT? - {P jjmmMGi W P University Press With two cases of type and as many job presses in addition, of course, to a corps of inspired collegiate printers, the Oglethorpe University Press got its start in the year of 1917. Through the generosity of J. Dillard Jacobs, of Atlanta, Ga., the necessary material and equipment was fur- nished for the beginning. There were two ends in the establishment of the University print shop: one was to supply the institution with stationery, etc., publish bulletins, and the other to make possible a means of earning a scholarship to students less fortunate. The print shop continued on the increase and its output more than doubled in less than ten years of existence. As a result, in 1926 a lino- type machine, cylinder press, and other modern mechanism were installed. It was the gift of Dr. Dillard Jacobs, of Atlanta. Shortly afterwards, the publication of the Petrel was transferred to the campus. Today the shop is just twelve years old and is producing periodicals, campus publications, stationery, and, lately, books, winning the distinction of being the only college press in the South to print its own text books. J. P. Hansard, member of the Class of 1926, is in charge of the Uni- versity Press and is ably assisted by Ray Todd, Morrell Driver and Jen- nings Dennis, students. M ujiamG iMm SIC r, .

Publicitij Manager iimimGia: m W What! When! Why! The Petrel Follies ! It ' s becoming to be a pet expression these days among the theatre folk of Atlanta as well as the stu- dents of the University. Those performances of the past two years at local theatre houses convinced thou- sands of theatre folk that the University has in its midst a group of talented students — and, too, a talented direc- tor. F Two years ago Earl Blackwell, now president of the student body, conceived of the idea. He tackled the job single-handed and in the end put over to the satisfaction of theatre-goers for two nights a splendid production. In fact, it was so successful, there was a demand for another performance. Earl did not hesitate. And again in 1929 Earl was on the job bright and early. As a result he devised and produced another Follies equally as good if not a wee bit better than the 1928 show. All of which means that the Petrel Follies has become a permanent thing. Just who will take over the burden of producer and director when Earl leaves is the one big question. For a number of years the dramatic students of the University have written and produced their own plays, being the only group to do so until a few years ago. And now the students have gone one better by produc- ing their own Follies! Aesthetic dancing, toe dancing, jazz singing, comedians, choruses to rival the best, trained musicians — they ' re just a few of the things Earl presented to the public. It was an array of talented entertainers capable of even causing Flo Zeigfield to wriggle in his seat. fTf :iiJiiimGiinm c 4 Criticism THE Oglethorpe Players Club, with the able assistance of the Oglethorpe orches- tra, December 6th and 7th presented their 1928 contribution to the gaiety of the community. They presented the Petrel Follies, an entertainment, friends, worth much more than the price of admission, whether Oglethorpe be your collegiate weakness or not. It is invidious to make comparisons, at any time and in any manner. It is still more invidious to attempt to compare an amateur performance with the work of stage professionals. For it is fair to neither. They are two entirely distinct specii. Professionals may have more training, greater mechanical perfection and more aplomb before the hundred-eyed monster, the audience. But amateurs have, to ofl ' - set this, an enthusiasm, a freshness and a charm that professionals can never hope to duplicate. Last night the Petrel Follies gave us a program that sparkled with the fresh- ness and enthusiasm of the amateur and added to it a perfection of production that can only be described as professional amateurism. So let it go at that. It is impossible to name all the incidents and acts of the program. It is one of those revues where one item follows another so fast that you lose count and memory cannot hope to list them later in orderly progress. Sufficient to know that you enjoy each one so much you wonder how come you thought those that had gone before could be the best of the night. From the opening numbers by the orchestra — by the way, professional or other- wise, there isn ' t a theatre in Atlanta with an orchestra that plays as zippily as the Oglethorpians — to the last finale it was amusing, clever, modern and zestful. Likewise, it is impossible to name the performers. There were too many. But recollection picks out as high lights, say Sara Sharp and her tap dancing. Louise Madden and her songs, Hayti Thompson, Jimmy Anderson, Dwight Horton and Jake Sutton and their comedy. Eugenia Buchanan and her splendid voice, Robert Jester Harbour and her gorgeous Peacock act, George McMillan, Joe Freeman, Blanford Eubanks and their vocalising. And, if Texas Guinan were only half as attractive as her copy last night, she ' d be too good for New York. Also, Marian Attridge can put over a song, emphat- ically. Then don ' t forget Frank Inman, Paul Madden, Theodosia Hunnicutt and all the rest of the gang, particularly Earl Blaekwell, the director, and Bob Shaw, musical director. Anyway who knows how hard they must have worked to achieve such a resiflt. All in all, the Petrel Follies is a distinctly snappy item of the season, and if you are so forgetful as to overlook it tonight let your folly be on your own head. Incidentally, the co-eds, fair and brunette, usher all comers to their seats with a de- licious touch of welcome that is balm to a tired newspaper scribbler ' s heart. — Ralph T.

Roses blooming in Iceland ! ■ Even a sophisticated, cynical world would be sent into pandemonium should such a thing come to pass. But never will the world see a more frenzied group of young men than the Oglethorpe students of the class of 1919 when they realized that a c o-ed had succeeded in crashing the gates of the Petrel Institution of Learning! Miss Martha Shover — pioneer of Lindberghian courage, was the bit of femininity that startled the heretofore secure male existence of the Petrels. And from the very beginning she gave these men to understand that co-eds were not content to be mere figureheads. So the Petrel files of November, 1919, relate that to Miss Martha Shover goes the honor of being the first woman to hold office among stu- dent activities at Oglethorpe. She was elected secretary and treasurer of the freshman class. Boys! Sharpen Your Razors— Fifty Co-eds On Their Way! So read the glaring headline in the Petrel for September 1921. And then An incentive for every Oglethorpe man adopting a slogan of ' a shave a day ' and the return of the lost art of sporting collars and ties is offered in the announcement that forty young ladies of Atlanta have registered at the university for the coming year. The outstanding achievement in 1921 seemed to be the fact that thirty-seven per cent of the co-eds were red-haired, so the Petrel files tell us. But storm clouds were already gathering. The winter of 1922 the Co-eds broke into print. The disturbing crash of thunder came when Mariana Goldsmith wrote, If the girls can vote, why can ' t they also be voted for? Meanwhile these brave, courageous pioneers were struggling to instill a feminine atmosphere; they started with the Co-ed Room. Some want a couch, others want a table. But all are in favor of a mirror. I {P timnmc Mm i s r-ffii m tuRamcwom In the fall of 1923, thirty-five young and innocent males banded together for protection against the winning ways of co-ed flappers, and called their organization the Anti-Co-ed Club! But this did not inter- fere with the co-eds ' activities. They played basketball, went out for debating, acted superbly in the Players Club, wrote for the campus pub- lications, competed with the men students in almost everything and still maintained their winning ways. And now, in the grand old year of 1929, we discover the fact that the female students are taking a very active part in various activities, viz. Stormy Petrel, Yamacraw, basketball, tennis, Follies, Players ' Club, de- bating. There is quite a contrast between the years 1919 and 1929 — just ten years difference — regarding the fair student! Probably one Co-ed whose name will live through the ages of Co-ed history is Evelyn Silverman, a talented writer, a wise student and a sa- gacious individual. During the past two years she captured the literati with her Brewing column in the Stormy Petrel. She has had several short stories accepted. She played a prominent part in the victory at High ' s department store. She has made good as a student of literature and journalism and a brilliant career is ahead. Martha Shover, who was elected secretary and treasurer of the Freshman class in 1919, no longer can be labeled the only Co-ed to capture votes. In 1928, Evelyn Hollingsworth was chosen vice-president of the Senior class. And this year Mildred Bradley was elected advertising man- ager of the Yamacraw for 1930. Not so bad for the girls ! The past year has been a progressive one for the Daughters of Ogle- thorpe. They have installed with notable success a Co-ed Council, and have drawn up the first Co-ed Constitution that the college has ever had. But sure proof of their growth and progress is presented with the fact •L that where one mirror hung before, three now hang! S 1} IP :iraamGBgM [? ■ - Co-ed Basketball Team SINCE the year of 1923 the Co-eds have entered a team in the basket- ball field despite the many handicaps and disheartening reverses. Dur- ing the recent season they failed to break through for a victory but still there is spirit and anticipation for a better round of it in 1930. The Co-eds did not participate but in three games in 1929 due to the Inter-Sorority league, sponsored by the Inter-Fraternity Council, which occupied the most of their afternoons. Two games were lost to Piedmont College and a third to North Georgia Agricultural College. Several outstanding players did not join the Co-ed squad until the Inter-sorority league was concluded and thus a reason for the erratic playing in the early games. The members of the squad were: Myrtle Sullivan, Jean Nutting, Doris Taylor, Louise Madden, Ruth Frost, Margaret Vardaman, Mary X.

Answer: Naw, but we know a great Big Joker. Editor: Whoosit? Chorus: John Renfroe. FAMOUS FOLK Many famous men, or rather little men with big names, have been seen around the campus, such as: Wilson, Morgan, Gordon, Bryant, Hancock, Adams, Jackson, Virgil Cooper, Hamilton, Brown, Buchanan, Em- erson, Goldsmith, Johnson, Marie, Riley, Simpson, Taylor and Smith. Jack Murphy tells us that he saw a Scotchman down town the other day throw- ing rocks at the newsboys in hopes they ' d hurl a paper at him. The BMiop and the ShoeHinith, one was English and the other a Turk, were stand- ing on the edge of the Brooke arguing as to who was Wright in regard to a Wade in the water. Shaw, said the Bishop, you be the fiirse one to enter! But a couple of bgrds appeared from the ivoods and attracted him. As the Bishop watched the Height of their flight, he fell in the Poole and shouted that he was a Coleman. The Shoesmith faced a Riddle in pulling his Pal from the Poole but he succeeded and they continued in the Woods, ap- proaching two Bridges. A few feet be- yond was seen a Wall which was very Long. They scaled the Wall and saw a Broirn Church over the Hill. Hoice can I dry my clothes? said the Bishop. A Gran Fox appeared and the two ran to the Church. They rang the Bell of the parsonage but no one answered so they found the Key and entered. The drenched Bishop sat on the Davenport ■while the Shoesmifli went in the kitchen and found some Coffee and Bacon. The wet Bishop reached in his pocket and found a Hevrin that, evidently, secreted its- elf when the victim fell in the Brooke. Am I crazy? he shouted. Fll be going Nutting soon. Before he had hardly finished, the But- lev entered. He listened to the Bishop ' s story and informed him that the pastor was in Montgomery and would later visit in Hamilton. It is all Wright for you to stay, he said kindly. The Bishop want- ed to know his Price for the trouble and the answer was in the negative. The intruder suffered chills so he plac- ed himself in a Crouch. The Butler put a Black blanket around his body. The Shoesmith brought the Bacon and Herrin and Coffee and they dined. We wish you Moore luck than the gods can give, they said and then departed.

For fear she ' ll gimme a sock. A GENIUS The dignified Senior was filling out an application. What is your father ' s occu- pation? read the question. The answer was ' Nothing. The next question was: What do you intend to do? and the ans- wer was: Do the same as my pappy. Little Boy : Say, Mister, will that man there (pointing to Vaughn) go to heaven? Wild Boy: Sure, lad. Little Boy: But, Mister, angels don ' t have whiskers. Wild Boy: Quite right but he ' ll get in heaven with a close shave. Dame No. 1: Say, Susie, I had a date with an Oglethorpe boy last night. Dame No. 2: What ' d you do? Dame No. 1 : Honey, ain ' t you ever been out with an Oglethorpe boy? Prof. Burrows: . . . and the Britons still wore the same clothes that their an- cestors did. Bob Shaw: Why, the dirty things! Nixon: What business are you going in next year? Sims: The food business, my comrade. Nixon: Yeah? Well, what part? Sims: Why, the eating part. Neuhoff: Why did you run away from Hot? Carroll: I just Wanted to be chased. Clem: Say, that girl over there (Mar- tha) is a man hater. Asa: Yeah? Clem: Yep, hates to be without ' em!

Y ' ou can do and do, serve and serve, put yourself out time after time, then fail in one single instance and all the good you ever did is forgotten in the storm of hate and scorn hurled in your direction. Too bad we are so forgetful. — Cartersville Tribune-News. COCOANUT BLUES Under the spreading cocoanut tree, I counted my golden treasure; A monkey looked down, Dropped a nut on my crown. And I looked elsewhere for my pleasure. — H. M. T. [? ON THE WAY TO LIBBY CA5TLE tim(xmGiiM:m% THE STRANGER Well, boys ' I ' ve come to town, The call of the bar was strong — Stop all of your games, and drink to the health Of a man who is always wrong. ' Twas in a way as this — On a cold November eve That we saw first He who had just come in He told us to call him Steve. He had the face of an eight day clock The walk of the mountaineer ' s stride The look of an Indian, The voice of a bell. And we thought he was here to hide. He ' d been through heaps and gobs of pain, ' Twas written in his face, This mystery man whom none had seen Other than at this place. But, true to the style and customs Of our Northwest, bless the ham. He asked no questions. Got no answers, And didn ' t give a damn! Thus we sized the stranger up And though we eyed him still — As time flew by, And nothing came We let him alone to fill. For he loved his whiskey, clear he said, And though he was always drunk, He kept his mouth shut all the time And we classed him as a skunk. Now as is our custom to make one talk In our far Northwest town, Q, We called in one Mary Ann — - To open the mouth of this clown. Now Mary Ann is the flower of the wilds- The lil ' of the Valley— the sun— And though she took to none of us (p She fell right for this bum. So we gave her a week to open his mouth To find out his business and trade — But they fell for each other like a ton of brick And he drank naught but sweet lemon- ade. Two more weeks and we found a note That drowned us in all despair — The note said she, Mary Ann, Has for him, gone to care. She also found out who he was — A reporter her note had said. Come to the North to confirm the report That Dan McGrew was dead. — F. Mc. S.

It is an attempt of a dying man to put into verse the ac- count of the only good deed in his life. It is reprinted here as it was found except for a short paragraph that was too blood- stained to read, but which started: To Whom It May Concern. . The rest was as follows: I was knowed by seven names From Haiti to Nome and back, A cut-throat, grim-ridden son-of-a-gun, Kept alive wid a blade, and tact. Yes, I ' ve kilt, for revenge, for money, For fun, and laughed as I slit a gut, Half drunk for months at a time, A fight-lovin ' fool, a slut. I knowed what I ' se doin ' , yes, Jest in me to do it, I guess, But there ' s one white trick I pulled in my life, Though I ' m payin ' for it wid my best. Yep! I ' m dyin ' and oh! Hell, What a way to die, Wid bullet holes all through me And the lid torn off ' n my eye. But strange to me, it seems, I ' m happy, Yeh, happy By God! and why? It ' s cause of that trick I jest now pulled And though it ' s causin ' me to die. I shake my own damn hand on it And I ' ll shake it again if I live, I l tell you about it if I can hold out And forget about being like a sieve. Been about two years ago that I wuz riding through A pasture right off ' n th ' road. Fell off my horse, couldn ' t hold ' im no more Cause I ' se totin ' a load. Yeh! A load of lead pumped into me By a snake I took for a friend, When a farmer picks me up and says You ' re mighty nigh your end . But he took me to his farmhouse And lay me down on a bed Jes ' like he ' d done for any man — If it wasn ' t for him I ' d been dead. Well, he dressed my wounds and fixed me up And saw that I eat and drink, And he ' s th ' man that saved my life And pulled me from death ' s brink. He had a little baby gal. Oh! She was a purty little tot And it was a hell of a combination — Them two and me — a sot. Well, I learnt to love the little gal. She was about six and a half. And while her pappy wuz off ' n to work She ' d talk to me and laugh. I couldn ' t move, even my arm For six weeks, maybe seven. And I ' ll never forget them days wid her, It ' s as close as I ' ll come to heaven. She cared for me like she was used to it And saw that I got along fine, It took me back to the long gone days When I ' se about eight or nine. One night when I was well enough to leave And I bid ' em both goodbye. The old man shook my hand and said He guessed the little gal ' d die. But the law was a-comin ' and a-eomin ' fast, Hot again on my trail, So I had to git, as my kind does. To stay outta sight and jail. That was a little over a year ago, I ' d been pinin ' for my little pal. While the sheriffs was keepin ' me up in iP timumG m ' fp . RATHr:F DlFHCULTjrODO THhTi MUSfl ' lFFR FAJlYf iiRcn GisMm th ' hills And away from that baby gal. But I made up my mind to sec her, Sn one night when there wasn ' t no moon, I steps outta the hills and starts ridin ' Wid half a shant-e of a loon. And when I start ridin ' I ' m shootin ' So five of ' em bit the dust. The other man I aimed at lives Cause the other bullet was rust. But there was plenty more, I knew, Ilidin ' round every hill. And they had but one thing in mind — To see me in jail, or to kill. I rode out two horses ' tongues that night Trying to outrun the pack, I wanted to fix my leg they got to— The blood was all turnin ' black. Early the next morning I lands in the yard Of the farmer that once picked me up. But there was.nt no sign of life there Save for a little mangy pup. So I ditched my horse and limped towards A barn half full of hay. Slammed the door and heard the yells Of the posse a mile away. Had plenty of shot and felt purty sound. Wasn ' t caring a bit, I could shoot ' em all up, on the ground While they could tell when I hit. Well, the posse arrives twenty men strong. Blood thirsty and rarin ' to shoot, Well, I ' ll give ' em that, I thought to my- self. With a little more to boot. So I start things off, the pup gets pran- cing, And lights out to where I lay, I cusses to myself to have let him live To come and give me away. But I draws back my gat and get get ready to work, Smilin ' and frownin ' in time. When somethin ' back o ' me causes me to jerk And forget all other worries o ' mine. Then wid shaking hands and a lead of a bullet I wrote a note on tlie door. And with tears in my eyes I limped to my horse Playin ' target like a boar. Shooting to all sides o ' me And gettin ' shot in return, Tryin ' to live just long enough To do what I thought I had earn. And so here I am a bleedin ' fool Wid a lid torn off ' n my eye. With white ants crawling all over me A-helpin ' me to die. But I ' m thankful for livin ' long enough To write all this and — well, But I ' ve gotta hurry and finish this thing Before I go off to Hell. When the sheriff wonders why I left th ' barn To get shot at by his men. He ' ll go in the barn and look around And find my note then. That I was a-goin ' to face his guns I put in the note just why Kniiwin ' damn well I ' d git shot all up And had nothin ' to do but die. This is what I wrote the sheriff ' . You kin understand it too, Dear Sheriff, my reason for not shooting from here Is in the wood box, best wishes to you. And when he opens the wood box up Wid a gun drawn in his hand, He ' ll see a blue eyed baby gal And then he ' ll understand. — F. Mc.
