He is generous and friendly, and commands at once an ungrudging respect, the highest tribute that men may pay men. Putsey ' s home is in Clinton, and for that reason, we have not had him with us in the dormitories, but his quiet manners and the thorough way in which he does his work, together with his long head and business insight bid fair to place his name among those of whom P.C. is proud. j £L SL Ste k m$ a Vfl x5iA : M LL j c MVft.

Collins, better known as ' ' Cave Man about the campus, and a real Jack-at-all- Trades was born in Spartanburg County; in 1907. he entered Furman University, with a determination to reach the realms of understanding and to grasp a diploma in his hand. But later repenting of his error, he left that institution, and after years spent in honest labor, came to P.C. in 1925 with the intention of finishing his education. Since that time he has gained main friends both on and off the campus who will cherish memories of him and wish him an unblemished success in the world. 6 j %SL SL SM £ SLs JL4% cM Vftl sC VO JL V SU% I5P J Q SL %J John Bradlei (imsui.

While it has not been his fate to bring honor to the College on the athletic field, he has made up for this lack by his work in literary circles. For four years he has shown forth as one of the most capable men in his class, serving with distinction on both the Blue Stocking and Collegian Staffs. As Editor-in-Chief of The Collegian he has carried that magazine to heights never before reached in its history. It is not alone in literary lines that he excels, for he does this in both scholarship and personality. A smile for every one, a good word for all. What more can one say for a man than that he is always cheerful and is ever trying to spread this to others? This is said to be especially true on the Glee Club trips, when he tries to cheer up quite a few of the young ladies of South Carolina, with his charming man- ner and excellent voice. He will be missed next year. However with his disposition he can never do aught but succeed. Therefore, to Lewis will go the best wishes of his fellow student-, that he may continue to smile and make others smile. f%£L SL %M Clinton, S. C.

A mortal full of the milk of human kindness, he has passed his good nature on to his comrades, and much of the grand old spirit of the Presbyterian College has been brought into being through him. Chunky ' s college career has been like the swell of a great tide on its wa to the deep. His progress has been peaceful but inevitable, and he leaves the halls of P.C. with a pen of gold with which he may write in gilt letters his name upon the walls of the Hall of Fame. It may be said that in the early days of his career, he followed his leaders with loyalty and willingness, and that in his later days of leadership in college affairs, he showed judgment, energy and tact.

There is so much to write ahout a man oi Horse s caliber, that in this limited space we can only give you an inkling of hi worth and his character. But we know that you can tell by looking at his handsome face, which is so usually distended by a chew of — well, shall we sav chewing gum. that he is a man of cheerful nature and friendly mien. In his four years of ceaseless activity on the campus he has made for himself a name as a good student and a tireless worker. He is true to his promises, ful- filling with promptness and excellence anything that may be assigned him to do. As manager of football during the past season he held up the character usually attributed to a manager, he was a mountain of resistance in the supply room, thus plucking many dingles with the Athletic Association. We can onlv wish for Horse in his battle with the world, the same success that has followed him through hi- college career, for with that degree, he will be able to retire at forty-five and spend the remainder of his life clipping the coupons off of Joe Roddy ' s bonds. m r±£L SL SM W ' m  si SLe J j Mvai Jsk r +Q SL4% SU% 3S AAsfl xfiA Joseph Paul i oi ng, A.I!.

It was a difficult matter to get enough out of our editor and librarian to furnish material for our biography. We found him over-shadowed by annuals, with a pen behind his ear, and a pencil between his teeth. And so, it has been necessary to make our study of this man as he snapped out his edicts on the drill-field. Young was another to start his career with those that finished last year. After remaining out of school a year after his rat days, he returned to us, and we wel- comed the opportunity by dumping a good deal of our most reliable work on his shoulders. He has been one of the best students in his class, besides editing the PaC-SaC and adding the enzymes to help us digest the better material in the library.

There have been many great activities that history has failed to record. Thus it is with the Class of 26. It is impossible to give an account of all that this class has done, in the space here allotted. On September 5, 1922, eighty-nine dignified young men entered for the first time the doors of P. C. This was the beginning of the Class of ' 26. And from that day till this, we have been in the thick of the fight in all college activities. Ere we had been here long, our dignity was forced to bow to the Sophomores who ruled the Rats with a strong arm and an impressive paddle. However, we were soon adjusted to college life and made use of such opportunities as are offered to Freshmen. In athletics we played our part well, putting out football, baseball, and basketball teams. Our football team, the first Freshman team to represent P. C, won second place in the state race. The first-year men of Carolina were the only ones to defeat or even score on our team. In September 1923, we found ourselves in college once more. We were somewhat fewer in number, but felt much wiser. Our tasks were larger and our opportunities greater than the year before. Lonnie McMillan had moulded some of our men into excellent football material, ready for Coach Johnson ' s master hand, and he did not fail to complete their education along this line. Our men also made splendid records in the other sports, and in die various activities of P. C. In September 1924, we were back at P. C. vigorously starting the second half of our college career. As Juniors we contributed men to all the important phases of the college life, and also gave to the college a class ring of new and more suitable design. As we return to the last lap of our journey in search of an education, we proudly exhibit the Cup which we won at Camp McClellan last summer, which is awarded annually by the War Department for the best R.O.T.C. Unit at this camp. We also carried off other trophies attesting to the merit of our representatives at Camp McClellan. The long looked for goal is in sight and we can look back over the last four years with pleasure, for we have done our work well. Any athletic team, any debating team, or any other organization which has gone out to represent and to fight for P. C, would have been incomplete without mem- bers from the Class of ' 26. Though we have been in college four years, we have by no means completed our education, but have formed habits which will enable us to attain greater education in the world which we shall have a part in running, and to which we hope to contribute our bit. — Historian ' 26 - kJLoJU M JS SA JU% -WWTT f rV r ? vnr V%rw Class Prophecy I remember clearly now that I was chosen Prophet of the Class of ' 26. Yet I wonder why, a prophet must be a dreamer and I never was one. They tell me that I sleep too hard. Long years of studying law books have ever tended to make the sleeper a harder one — and I have no apology to offer because I cannot dream. The Honorable Stiles N. Hughs, President of the International Railway, and I were traveling from Richmond to Philadelphia. The conversation was not long in drifting to members of our old Class, when he mentioned a dream of the night before. Over twenty years had passed since we were together at P. C. For their benefit I shall record this dream just as it was told to me. Afternoon was waning when I started for a walk in the flower garden of a friend ' s country home in Virginia. It was a clear and lovely April evening. The sun that had made its way across the blue heavens was now falling in its ros lied beyond the peaks of the western hills. Its last faint tint was silhouetted against the almost purple pines. Here and there from heaven ' s vault many tiny stars were appearing. A great moon was beginning to throw its silver gleam across the garden and hills. A thousand blossoms were closing their petals for a dewy re- pose. The soft breeze brought with it the odor of the folding flowers to constantly remind one of the lovely springtime. Though the garden there flitted here and there the light of some bug. Occassionally the stillness of the evening was broken In the bark of a fox across the low rolling hills. There floated from somewhere on the soft evening air the melody of an old Southern ballad. The evening was so serene, so calm, and so comforting. A few minutes after sitting in a garden chair — I was in dreamland. Shall it be counted strange but true, that in the calm Virginia air I should dream of Florida? In the city of Miami I met Horse White. He has become tremendously fat, but his face had changed but little except for the addition of a small moustache which he fain would have grown back in his college days at P. C. He was still smoking the characteristic pipe. Horse had attained his ambition to become manager of a professional football team. The scenes in the land of dreams shift very fast. Fatty Ferguson was the Little Henry dealer of Clinton. Ferg. has spent many years at a school of Archi- tecture. After educating himself to perfection in that line, he suddenly realized that too much work was to be involved and after all life would be so much easier in little Clinton. In the same City, I saw Putsy Bailey. He was holding the position as Municipal head of Clinton. I chanced to catch a glimpse of Max Clotfelter. He was manager of a hotel in Macon. The Right Hon. J. P. Young had attained flowing excellence in the field of Commercial Law. He was drawing golden rewards from the Captains of Industry. Being so associated with that name during his laborous years of majorship in Econo- mies at P. C. we should have guessed of his connection with them in later life. John B. Cousar was enjoying warm African sunlight, in which continent he had taken his abode as a medical missionary. While dreamland was dealing with the Continent of Sphinx and Pyramids I chanced to find A. M. Simpson there also as a missionary. Sixty-Five v7r rwir isrv TJVW 3 J S Q SL4% wrva jwv j As President Hughs continued to relate his dream I wondered what the Class at P. C. might have thought had they known what a dream twenty years later would jiiiiiit out. The President continued. To my surprise I saw C. L. Smith who had become a brilliant choir leader for an evangelistic party. Messers. Chevis Ligon and Farmer ' MeFall were the Evang- elists. Their greatness in that line even surpassed the great Sunday of my youth. Next I met Drs. Rhame and George Blalock. now owners of the Clinton Hospital. Through their earnest efforts and the cooperation of Clinton they were able to meet expenses and operate the Hospital. George s wife told me about the prosperity of Thornwell. while all the little Blalocks. gathered round to gaze in astonishment at one who knew their father and mother in days long past. I saw E. L. Collins who had become a horticulturist in the Philippine Islands. In the same place I recognized W. L. McFadden as a professor of Spanish at the L niversity of Mamagpacan. The dream scene shifted back to the Enited States and to Alabama. Dr. Harry Holland has become President of a Woman ' s College at Peseola. The Rev. Francis Wallace was declaring the slorv of God ' at Chimney Rock, N. C. Mr. Y . J. Macfarlan had become editor of the Southern Ruralist. We always believed Mac would attain to mighty heights in the Publishing World. Mr. Lewis Cunningham has become a Captain in the E.S.A. He was located at Panama. Joe Martin was the proud proprietor of a small country town store and brok- erage combined. Something told me that lie lias experienced changes in his voca- tions. Even from that of the lowly fisherman to the sublime and lofty heights of a philosopher. Joe was the first of old 26 to be married. Dr. G. F. Patterson was holding the position as professor of Greek at Erskine. He was said to be one of the most proficient professors in his line in the entire South. Senator John A. Blake was one of the nation ' s well known citizens. He had had many hard waged lights in the Senate. Of late he had enlarged his popularitv by finally getting passed a proposal for the Enforced Corporative Planting of Acorns. Mr. Ralph Y alker was manager of the custom house at Wilmington, N. C. Mr. JNick Hunter was coach at Georgia Military Academy. Nick was the second member I that is. in time I to engage in matrimony. Messrs. G. K. Summeral and Charley Madden had made brilliant successes as teachers. Both of them were teaching in Kingstree. S. C. Mi. Bill Perkins had attained fame as an inventor, especially in the Radio World. He had specialized upon Spanish broadcasting. He was working on a broadcasting machine which as soon as complete, the first thing he expected to send over it was, a Joke — B. Graham. Mr. Hugh Ussery was working with Mr. Perkins but he was also instructor of Mathematics at Duke. Mr. T. M. Robinson was a truck farmer near Charleston. He was also a member of the County Board of Legislators. 1 saw Messeis. T . L. Rucker and W. C. Sistar in Washington. Thev are both holding responsible positions with the State Department. Lasth.

So to twenty and seven all praise do we will, For in serving, each nobly has worked to attain: In the fields so diverse our one aim is — excel, is ne march to the goal, for distinction to gain. — Poet ' 27 Sixty-Eight va_ ju% o JMVft xW c j rrs Trvyzr Junior Class History September, 1923, was a momentous epoch in the lives of eighty young men who at that time entered the Freshman Class at the Presbyterian College; for many of us it was the first time we had been placed on our own responsibilities, and there were many of us perhaps, who for the first time felt the pangs of homesickness. But that malady did not long afflict us, for our time was taken up with more pressing matters, such as classes, football practice, social affairs, and Sophomores vieing with each other for our attention. Our interests were pretty evenly divided but we will say that the Sophomores more than made their presence felt! We had no sooner gotten settled before Coach Lonnie McMillan issued his call for candidates for the Freshman Football team, and about half of our number responded. Our Class, which was the second Freshman team to represent P. C. made an enviable record that year, ending the season in a four-cornered tie for the State Championship. We did equally as well in basketball, track and baseball. One year after we made our initial appearance in Wide Awake Clinton, we again showed up in the Classic City of the Piedmont; and on that occasion we felt much more secure than we did at the time of our first coming, for we were no longer members of the lowly Rodent family — we were full-fledged Sophomores, and incidentally, we suspect that we deserved the paradoxical or derisive name of Wise Fools. Our original eighty members had dwindled to fifty-four, and while our number was diminished, we did not falter in our zeal and determination to make the Class of ' 27 rank among the best ever turned out by the Presbyterian College. It was in that year that our talents began to bud. Our men were the backbone of the teams, and in the classroom the entire class showed up exceptionally well. Byers brought honor to his Alma Mater and our class when he won second place at the S. C. State Oratori- cal Contest. Our men also began to forge ahead in forensic, scientific, musical, liter- ary, and journalistic circles, winning distinction in all those activities. For the first time in history Sophomores were elected to two of the three highest office on one of the publication ' s staff. The class has always stood highly in scholarship, both as a class and individually. When we returned to college in September. 1925, our number had simmered down from eighty to thirty-six men. The shifting and weeding-out process had made in- roads on our number, but as we rose towards the Senior class, we were rising as does cream on milk. During our Junior year it was Lee Griffith who brought fame and glory to his Alma Mater and Class, for the first time in history P. C. was represented on the mythi- cal all S.I. A. A. Football Eleven, and the bright light of pigskin fame shone in trans- cendent brilliancy around this young Arkansan. With one more year of residence at Presbyterian College, our Class bids fair to leave behind a record of achievement which the members of ' 27 may with pride reflect on in their reminiscent moods of later years. — Historian 27.

We certainly must have looked quite dumb to the members of the class of 27 for some of us had never gazed on such a prosperous City as Clinton before, and were not accus- tomed to the sights and noises of a real city. Truly lliis was a memorable date for P.C.. for then we began to do our stuff for the college. How I we say I . would it have been possible to get along without us? Excuse our egotism, for we are just wise old Sophs and must live up to our reputation. We will always remeber that first week which we spent I according to custom and to testimony furnished by various members of our class i gelling toned down ' and also tuned up, with the good old P.C. spirit. We will always be grateful to the class of ' 27 for the warm reception accorded us. After being separated for the short summer vacation the class came- back together quite enthusiastically. We were sorry that several of the old faces were missing from the line-up, but we were read) and prepared for action. This consisted chiefly in our duty towards the rats. We have done our best to lake good care of them to guide them with a strong and efficient arm. They proved l be quite a respon- sibility, but we have tried very hard to make them feel at home and as Lt. Nimocks would say, At Ease! Our class as Freshman put out what proved to be a championship football team and also furnished good material for basketball, baseball, and track. As Sopho- mores our athletes were some of the mainstays in P. C. ' s football machine, cveral of them being mentioned for the mythical All-State Eleven. But not only have we been active in athletics, the members of our class have shown quite a bit of intellectual power and have managed to convince the Faculty (we hope) that all of us are not as ignorant as we appear, although we will not venture to say that we are wise, for we have just seen a Senior! The class of ' 28 contains many interesting characters. There are some who are satisfied to gather the dust on P.C. ' s athletic field and some who are content to gain fame in scholarship. Some also are acquiring merit in literary circles and are doing splendid work for the various college publications. It is likely that the literature courses offered in 1950 will contain some of their work. Still others strive to reach perfection in the gentle art of Bull Shooting which is ever and anon a great pleasure when you haven ' t the fare to the picture show. Several of our members have already attained great proficiency in this profession and give promise of becom- ing some day great bullologists. Needless to say we have all become quite expert at plucking dingles, for one must pluck to pass. Almost any morning when the chapel bell rings, a Soph may be seen walking to that assembly with a branch containing many of the berries. If proficiency in this art will bring us to the great time of receiving diplomas, we shall all be there. When the class of ' 28 has left these walls of P.C, may it be said that we fought a good fight and one that was not in vain. For with the will to serve, not only we ourselves are served but the entire world also. — Historian ' 28.

One Hundred Eight c %rnr %r r -WVTS TTV ' fcr Freshman Class History There isn ' t a feeling which can compare with that which a young man has in his breast as he directs his thoughts and steps towards college. A new life, ' midst new environment, is in store for him and he rejoices in the fact that he is so fortunate a to begin such a life. As the days moved from summer to fall, and as September 8. 1925, became a reality, much of America ' s true blood manifested in young man- hood, came to take up a new life at P.C. All thoughts were centered on what the future might have in store for us and what part we should have in the unfolding of that future. Our hopes were high and our purpose strong, we had at last reached the place where men are made. It took only a few hours to learn that Dr. Douglas and Prof. Woodworth did not run P.C. by themselves, but that, as far as we were concerned, the Sophomores had more authority than any one else. We were enrolled by the same name, that of •rats. ' and we had to like it and answer by that name. Their policy was soon made known to us. i. e., Spare the rod and spoil the rat. Our first lesson we shall never forget, it was in the art of acting and impersona- tion. Every rat impersonated a true Southern negro and we acted all the way from the College to the center of town, on a rope and to the tune of many paddles. The audience treated us royallv with substantial gifts. The second lesson then followed. Although we were black. we had to impersonate whites and run a gauntlet of Sophomore Indians. Amid yells and whoops, down the line we raced until we reached our haven of rest, the Casino, where we enjoyed a good picture. The catalog did not state so. but we had a course in law anil court procedure, and though the class was not very orderly, many had occasion to practice and were dulv C rewarded. Next in order, came a laboratory experiment in the science of Put and Take. entitled the Rat Reception, which was sponsored by the Y.M.C.A. The object of this experiment was to get acquainted and the materials used were girls. That evening many were put ami not so many taken, but everyone voted it a perfect experiment. The rules and ordinances handed down to us about walking the straight and nar- row walk, and the wearing of the green, we soon accustomed ourselves to obey. The button on the green seemed to have magnetic power over our fore-finger whenever it was mentioned in our hearing, and matches were always in abundance to light the never ending Camels of the upper-classmen. The week before Christmas holidays began, the Casino, post office, and the hotel became very popular, especially im- mediately after supper. The library also enjoyed a pre-Christmas rush and no doubt saved many from more than just flunking examinations. The spirit of the class of ' 29 was soon manifested on the football field. Although the men were not so heavy and so large as is usual in a football team, we made up that deficiency by a fighting spirit, such as is seldom seen. The season was not what would be called a huge success as far as scores were concerned but the spirit of clean sportsmanship was displaved in every game. Not only in athletics were we loyal, but also to the classrooms and the various clubs and organizations of the campus. We trust that we have lived up to the expectations of our able pro- fessors and the worthy Sophomores and hope to carry the true spirit of P.C. on with us through our college days. — Historian 29 One Hundred Nine nrv ovr HfVfl UVW 3 - %9V lTSd r wvTT TJVvr Student Body Statistics Since the following statistics are indicative in a measure of the life at P.C., the PaC-SaC feels justified in borrowing them from her sister publi- cation, the ' Blue Stocking.

Johnson Director oi Athletics Words are but trivial things when they are used in an attempt to give you an idea of the love and esteem which we hold for Coach. In hours of triumph and glory, he has re- joiced with us, in hours of de- feat and despair he has sor- rowed with us and with words of wise counsel has cheered us on to greater efforts. Not only has he imbued his teams with the spirit of fair-play and cleanness, but he has led the entire student body to regard honor and truth as the highest virtues. As we who leave this year look back on our college days, we shall think of him as the true exponent of that grand old P. C. Spirit. Lonnie S. McMillan Freshman Coach To this man P. C. owes the success of her Freshman teams. Trained under the maxims of Coach Johnson he exemplifies those teachings in his every act. Taking the Freshmen before they have the opportunity of learning the customs and the rules of our College, he incul- cates into them the true P. C. Spirit, with all its meaning, of fair-play, clean fighting, defeat before dishonor, and moral liv- ing. An example of all these qualities, no better could be found to bring these to the at- tention of the Freshmen. To this old P. C. man, the students give their entire support, and their love and respect. One Hundred Eighty-Nine c WV7T TTW r %9Tr %r r ■W-TT f rV r c wwTT Trv r T. M. Robinson. Captain Fullback For three long years Robby worked indefatigably on the varsity eleven, and it was a fitting climax to his grid career that his mates should elect him to captain his team during his last campaign, for a more capable and deserving man could not have been found. He held down an end position dur- ing his Sophomore year, and his training in that place en- abled him to snag many a pass out of the air even after he had been shifted to the backfield. Robby expects to coach next fall and we are predicting for him great success, for he not only has the ability but there is something about him which inspires confidence in those with whom he is associated. J. W. White Manager A football team manager has a thousand and one things clamor- ing for his attention during the course of a day, and unless he is endowed with the patience of a Job he is liable to develop a crabbed and cross-grained na- ture before the season is com- pleted. But the Horse was evidently endowed with the necessary qualifications for such a trying position, for he always appeared in the best of spirits regardless of the way the wind was blowing. We con- gratulate him for his successful handling of the team, and wish to give to him a rising vote of thanks. One Hundred Ninety-One ' WVTT TrVwr WW JVT J rt Lr JW WWl WV ' L. H. Griffith. Captain-Elect Tackle Hail to Polo, a powerful Presbyterian pig-skin paladin of the past and present !

A. A. mythical elevens. His mates showed their confidence in his ability and leadership when they elected him tn pilot the Blue Stockings through the V.Y1V, seas.. n. Griff, we are ... iinting ..11 yuu to help put the Pres byterians on top and we know you can do it. P. S. Bailey End For the past three years the Blue Stockings have had the ser- vices of this young Clintonian at one of the wing positions, and it is a source of deep regret when we realize that he has caught his last pass for his Alma Mater. Si was a quiet, unassuming, but hard and diligent worker, and in look- ing back over his career on the gridiron we are impressed with the fad that he has figured in many Presbyterian victories. We hate to lose you. old boy. but we know that you will meet with great suc- cess in whatever work you under- take. N. Hunter Quarterback be the evidently In start- A good offense is said best defense, and Nick believed that P. be true. ing off the season he was some- what cautious in running the team, and would seldom take a chance. but as the season wore mi he say- that the forward pass was his greatest weapon, and he became bolder and bolder in his use of it. and the result was that he gained much ground that he could not have otherwise. Nick is one of the most versatile athletes who ever pulled on a Blue Stocking, and we sorrow when we realize that he has played his last game for his Alma Mater. One Hundred Ninety-Two J04%£L Sb JS i r JL V M SSL Q % JXJS sr SLekM; J. V. Martin Tackle Joe has worked hard for the past three years, and it was dur- ing his last year that he did his most brilliant and consistent work on the gridiron ; anil it was dur- ing that year that Ids real worth was recognized, so that he was given a P in football, to go along with tli les that he had previously won in baseball. Coach Jonhson always felt safe about his tackle positions, for there he ha. I Martin. Griffith and Withersp veritable towers of strength. Joe lias played the last game for the Blue Stockings bid his loyalty and devotion will long lie remembered. W. L. Rucker Guard At the start of the season the Blue Stockings were handicapped by the loss of two or three stars, and Lee Rucker was among thai number. After the Clemson game however, Lee was able to c ie mil for work, and he rapidly worked himself into condition for the grueling contests remaining on the schedule. He perhaps reached the pink of perfection in the Wof- ford game, for in it he was at once a lion mi defense and a hog for tackles. Time after time he broke through to throw the Old Cold and Black pigskin toters for serious losses. His brilliant work in the last few minutes saved the Blue Stockings from defeat. R. M. Walker End Ralph is one of the few three letter men who grace our campus, and we are proud of him. He had bard luck on the gridiron during bis Sophomore and Junior years, be- ing forced out of the fray with in- juries. But in his Senior year he made up for lost time, and devel- oped into one of the best ends in the State. He hail a natural apti- tude for catching passes, and those who saw the Carolina ga will not s 1 forget the fifty-yard pass he successfully pulled out of the air. We are expecting great things from you in life. Ralph, and we know you will not disappoint us. One Hundred Ninety-Three Mf Q SL JtMVJL A V WW WV R. R. Berry Guard The Railroader has had more than his share of hard hick during his two years on the Varsitj squad. During his Sophomore year he was forced ti quit the game late in the season on account of injuries and the same thing happe 1 his Junior year. But be- fore these misfortunes overtook him. he gaye an excellent account of himself, being famed for his accurate and deadly tackling. Yon have yet another year to play, big boy, and we are hoping and trust- ing that fate will be more kind to vol. tor we believe that you will land an All-State berth. A. M. Gregg Guard Bus is the stocky little lad from Rock Hill who saw service at oiio of the guard positions in practically every game of the sea- son, and we always had confidence in his work there, for he not only had i lie ability, but could always ! ■ counted on to back up that ability with hard, conscientious work. He is a versatile linesman, and during his stay with us has peri ' .. lined at end, tackle, and guard. We have a sneaking no- li. .11 that he would also make a hit in the backfield. We ' ll be looking for you in September ! J. M. KlRYEN Center Marion comes from a football family, and is following closely in the footsteps of his illustrious brotheis. Bull and Donuie. He is small in stature, but what he lacks in height he makes up for in his bulldog fighting spirit and his loyal devotion to his Alma Mater and Coach Johnson. In bis Soph.. more year he cut quite a figure at center , gaining favorable attention from the press. I hiring his Junior year be perhaps played his best games against Clemson ami Can. Una. for all who saw those game- will vouch that he was a veritable fighting demon. He received sev- eral All-State votes this year. One Hundred Ninety-Foul M SLoSL JSf S £Lr JL J JSM%A AmPM jxj q sl J. A. DuGAN Halfback Splig is a noted fighter, and win or lose he would never unci ' stop fighting for the Garnet and Blue. His strong points were in backing up the line and running interference for the other back- field men. Being built close to the ground, and possessed with an abundance of sheer strength, he was always abb ' to ram the line for a gain. Whenever two or three yards were i led. ' Splig was the man to lake the ball and cany it over. Me is only a Sophomore and should bring much fame to his Alma Mater before be leaves. E. M. Kennedy. Jr. Halfback This diminutive back bails from Blackstock, the native heath of Big Dick. Ed is scarcely five feet tall and weighs ar d 125 pounds and perhaps lias the dis- tinction of being the smallest col- legiate football player in South Carolina. He was so small ami rabbit-like that his opponents found it bard to catch him, and he could seep through a hide in the line which a larger man could not hope to negotiate. His strong points were in running hack punts an dacting as safety man. J. F. McKenzie Center Jerry during bis Freshman year was one id ' the outstanding linesmen of Lonnie Mac ' s famous outfit of that year. In his very first varsity game, that with Clem- son, he crashed through the husky Tiger line to block a punt which helped to defeat that team. He was one of the lightest men on the team, and incidently one of the most scrappy ; be could always be counted on to put every ounce of his 13S pounds into the fight. It is encouraging to remember that he has two more years with US. One Hundred Ninety-Five J ±£Lr Sb %M j va jL ja vft A - J J±SLs SL4% J. A. Stamps Halfback This strong, slim silent Sopho- more struck terror into the hearts of his opponents by his un- common ability in handling and booting a football. He was truly a triple threat man; in carrying the ball he could always be count- ed on to sliee off a healthy sain ; in passing he is generally conceded to be without a peer in the state; in the Furman same he booted a field goal from the Purple 47 yard line, ami in so doing established a modern record in Smith Caro- lina. He received some votes for the mythical All-State eleven this year, ami with two years more to play he should, barring accidents, easily sew up one of thost veted berths. F. 0. Stevens End This stocky lad is a producl of Thornwell, and sainecl much valu- able football experience under Lonnie McMillan. Although his less arc a little short, he is a wizard in getting down the field after punts, he won much praise for his work along that line in i he Carolina same. In the Furman game he sent a chill down the spines of the Purple players by his pass catching ability; the scarlet clad Pres- byterians three times surged down to the very shadow of the Purple goal and much credit is due to Neal ami his hard playing. S. A. TlMMONS End Shirley is the type of pigskin artist who is not only brilliant, but a hard worker as well. On punts and kick-offs, he always managed to set his man, and his opponents were seldom able to get around his end. He was a glutton tor passes, and could leap up and catch them with uncanny ability. He found himself in the same asaiiist Purman, ami set the Blue Stockings wild when he pulled the oval out of the air for a 35 yard sain and a touchdown against Oglethorpe. With two move years in which to play, he should make an enviable reputation for him- self. One Hundred Ninetv-Six cJfc ViLoJL4 k f%rG Tr%r ir VTT TTVW 3 c wv7T Trwy I. . Moore. Freshman Captain Quarterback Although small and only a Freshman, he is endowed with those fighting qualities which characterize a Blue Stocking player. He, too, was unfortun- ate in being kept out of many of the games due to injuries, but his clean, fast, accurate playing in those in which he participated, made him an out- standing member of Lonnie ' s eleven. We noticed Coach John- son ' s eye on this diminutive star several times during the season, and feel that he is due to make a record as a varsity man before he leaves. W. L. Lowry Assistant Manager It is generally understood at P. C. that the Assistant Mana- ger of a team is supposed to do all the hard work while the Manager gets the glory and the applause. Bill has been faith- ful in all his duties, he has even chaperoned the Freshmen suc- cessfully. Xow that it is his turn to reap the rich rewards of the varsity Manager, we pre- dict that Horse White will have a worthy successor. One Hundred Ninety-Eight fV ovir rVTT TTVWr rw Trs r wvHT Tr r r W. H. MOFFATT Center said of tin Not enough ran ! ■ fast stepping and passing executed by Moffatt, which only slightly shaded his goal si ting. He played in every same and could be counted upon to play steadily ami consistently. He was not what might be termed a scintillating player, but one who would do credit to any quintet. We are looking forward to great things from him next year, and we all feel that we shall nol be disap- pointed. G. R. Porter Guard Reward always comes to those who persevere, providing they are earnest, conscientious, and dili- gent in their perseverance. Dur- ing the past two years Rod had been working hard to land a place on the team, and this year his efforts were recognized by Coach to the extent that he was taken on all trips and played in many of the important games. With on ore year in front of him. he should have things coming his way. W. E. Robinson Center Highjumping is Hobby ' s favor- ite dish, but lie does not confine it to the field, for he uses it with great success on the court as well. In practically every game in which he played, this lad from Easley was able to get the jump on his op- ponent. Not only did he jump well, but was an expert in the passing attack, and towards the latter part of the season developed into one of the best goal-shooters on the Blue Stocking team. He has one more year to play for the Presbyterians, and we are count- ing on him to show his stuff next year. Tieu Hundred Three iirv wr- %r5M?rS r VTF TTVWr N. Hunter, Captain Second Base During his Sophomore and Junior years Nick was our star center fielder, but because of a vacancy at second which was created by Jet Moore ' s failure to return to college, Nick was shifted to the keystone sack during his last year. This shifty lad from Chester is one of the most versatile athletes who has ever pulled on a Blue Stocking, and whatever posi- tion he is placed in, on any team, whether it be footbali, basketball, or baseball, he may always be counted on to more than take care of his job. We can ill afford to lose you, Nick, but we are predicting great suc- cess for you when you begin coaching. C. L. Smith Manager The Horse had never had any experience at managing an ath- letic team until his Senior year at which time he had the man- agership of the varsity baseball team thrust upon him. He is the type of man who is a glut- ton for work, and is possessed with a great deal of patience and perseverance, so that he was eminently fitted for his po- sition. His amiable and genial disposition won for him the friendship and admiration of the entire team. _v I ! iuu Hundred Seven rVTT rw r WTT TTVWP J 4 SLrySL i%X J J±Sl SL % J. V. Martin First Base Joe lias just finished his second year at first base, and his last year at the Presbyterian College; it is needless for us to say that we hate to see him go, for he is the all-around type of man that we can ill afford to lose. Long and lanky, Joe was the typical and ideal specimen of a first baseman. He had his footwork down to a scientific basis, and had the faculty of being able to be all about the initial sack at the same time. He seldom errored the ball, and if it was thrown or hit anywhere in the vicinity of his station the runner was as good as out. Here ' s luck to you. Joe ! K. M. Walker Pitcher For three years we have had the pleasure and satisfaction of watch- ing Ralph serve his hot ones right across the plate, and it seems hard to realize that lie has pitched his last curve for the Blue Stocking nine. This veteran horsehide heaver was the only twirler brought over from last year ' s var- sity team, and it was around him that Coach developed his pitching staff; he was one of the mainstays of the L926 machine, and render- ed invaluable service to it through- out the season. He is another three letter man and with his apti- tude for athletics, coupled with his hard and diligent work, he will undoubtedly make any team that he goes out for. W. S. Beckham Outfielder Every first class club must have a bunch of reliable men whom they can fall back on in ease of an emergency, and for the Blue Stocking Club. Simon was the man. He was a Junior this year, hut for some reason had never gone out for baseball seriously until this year, although demon- strating his ability by his smooth work this year. He should grasp a place on the team without any trouble his Senior year. Tao Hundred Eiglit J VA JL Wk j s±jL si ev J f%SL SU% 0. W. Jones Catcher Twinkle broke into the var- sity lineup early in his Sophomore year when he surprised his fellow- students with his Ruth-like as well as ruthless clouting of the ball. We shall never forget his savins the clay against Clemsou at Laur- ens when he won the game by hitting a h e run which gutted the bases. Twinkle has one more year at the home plate which makes us sure that we will have a steady man behind the hat for us next year. I.. E. l( Lu l, ' l After two s,.as,ms with the var- sity, Left End has made for him- self a name as an outstanding player. Light and wiry, he cov- ers his territory thoroughly, the halls seen to gravitate to his wait- ing hands without any effort on his part. Hi- has saved many a run by lis il ility to make 1 n;; t i:- from the far distant outfield. We expect great things from him next year. G. R. Porter Center Field During his Junior year. Rod first had his worth recognized and was given a regular berth on the nine. He is a tielder of unusual ability and in his strong anus has I In- power to throw that lull quite a distance. Before the season was over he demonstrated his prowess at the hat. and should prove an invaluable man to Coach during his last year on the Blue Stocking team.

Montgomery Pitcher Had it not been for the fail that there were a number of g 1 pitchers on last year ' s Freshman outfit, the varsity would have been seriously handicapped this year by a scarcity of reliable twirlers. Grier made a name for himself during his first year with us. ami during liis Sophomore year he wrote his name still firmer in the annals of the Blue Stockings. This boj is young in years, and ere he reaches his Senior year liis name will doubtless be a by-word in Presbyterian College baseball cir- cles. J. A.

Woe! Alack and Alas! The glory that was Greece neglected to provide for our contingency. Where, oh where, is the muse of mirth? From what source shall we draw inspiration ' . ' ' Jukes there are main. but which shall be the source of the wit that is supposed to flow from the rattling keys of a second-hand typewriter? Ford jokes there are many; hut there has been too much gas about Fords already; probition is out of the question, we are in anything but high spirits, and besides, diis is not a high type of humor. Who wants to read diy jokes? About flappers too much has been said, and the old maid school-teacher can speak for herself. Then from what fount shall we draw the wit which is to immortalize our name? Who has set the example which we are now following? We must make proper acknowledgement of the influence that has. by the precept of its example, so moved us to foolishness. To the spring from which has sprung our inspiration, we leap to make proper acknowledgement. Oh divine Apollo, oh Venus, thou queen of beauty, oh Orpheus of the golden lute, couldst thou have so instilled into the soul of a mortal that divine afflatus w r ith which we are uplifted? Could, oh Pan, the divine smoke from thy pipes so have lifted mere mortal to the realms of art? Nay, thrice nay, and a thousand times no. We have sat at the feet of a far better edu- cated bunch than that. Daily, in their classroooms, we have listened anil laughed at their jokes and every month we have been graded on the atten- tion which we have paid. I n dedicating this section then, we wish not only to pay proper respecl to die source of our genius, but to pass the buck, if possible. That which we have said, we learned in college, and it is to the perspicuity of our learned preceptors that we wish to make proper acknowledgement. We do not claim that anything that we have said is our own, simply that it conies from a reli- able source. For the material, the inspiration, the wisdom, the characters, and the example, we are indebted to the Faculty. Two Hundred Nineteen c ww k rv r t r?r Tr%r r Now, Mr. Ferguson. I see on the margin of my hook that there is no disputing about taste. We want to do a good, hon- est piece of work. The radio should he here in a few days; yes, I expect so, and Mr. Pitts informs me that our clocks have gone wrong. Nothing to excess, Mr. Grafton, what do you think of that? Mr. Swedenberg informs me that the lesson for today is hard. Read straight ahead. Mr. Adams. I fre- quently tell my students a little joke which I am verj fond of (Laughter from students), ahout a goat that was so hard- headed that he hutted his brains out against a brick wall. (The A students laugh.) Now the cosine of A, Mr. Edmunds, if you are very sleepy I will send someone out to get you a pillow. Correctamente, p ' rhaps so. E hah, e hah, e hah, now the good doctor, for the alleviation of the sufferings of man- kind, has ceased to use these good old Anglo-Saxon words of our forefathers. In the Phillipines. I didn ' t know that, and I tried to memorize all that for myself, a hundred and eighty different forms. Now you needn ' t answer me this, but your parents are sending you here at a great sacrifice. That will do lor today! And so . . . on and on into the days. Two Hundred Twenty WVTT TTW ' W rw r rvw 3 r Tf r d r VTT TTW Special Rules Passed by the Student Council for the Better Enforcement of the Marriage Laws 1. Absolutely no liquids shall be brought on the campus during the spring holi- days. Punishable on suspicion. 2. No man shall have in his possession any shoe polish, canned heat, balloon gas, helium or hot air. This is to prevent the students from getting high. Mr. Macfarlan is unconditionally excepted from the rule regarding hot air. 3. Upon entering and leaving the room, each man shall be thoroughly searched by his roommate. In case they attempt to leave together, neither shall leave. 4. Each man shall search his room before and after meals. It may be that some of the insiduous stuff has crept in and hid under the lied. (Black Flag insect killer had absolutely no effect. I The only way to get rid of this menace to our nation ' s morals is to pour it straight up in the air immediately, or give it to a member of the Student Council. 5. The Councillors are hereby appointed official tasters of all suspicious stuff. 6. Any man having the smell of Listerine upon his breath shall be shipped on suspicion. 7. At least once during the holidays each man shall report his roommate for having liquor in his possession. This is to prevent anyone getting by. 8. Any man knowing where there is a supply of liquor and not sharing his information with the Council shall be shipped for withholding valuable information. 9. Members of the faculty positively shall not drink in public. 10. Any man expressing disapproval of these rules shall be closely watched as a suspicious character. 11. These rules shall not be made public until after the next student body elections. 12. In order to get these rules passed in the Council, three ministerial students shall constitute a quorum. 13. So that they may hold their dingles with the Faculty, the Council shall ship at least one man during the holidays. This to show that the Council can meet competition. 14. Any man attempting to kiss Big Dick, quote Greek poetry, read Rabelais in the original, study, or obey these rules shall be shipped on suspicion.

Ye call me chief and ve do well to call me chief, who for twelve long year- have come to bury Caesar: not to praise him. After Mr. Griffith has been persuaded that his life has not been threatened Mr. Mclnnis proceeds: Gentlemen, this is one of the few occasions of the year which it will be mv privilege to attend.

Why should we give the Seniors a weinie roast? For no reason other than that it is the custom, and that some of these tea-hounds want to have girls up here. Girls are a bad influence on college work, thev are distracting, you cannot think when they are around. I guess that is why I do not feel at home with them, and some of you do; I envy these men. for I do not feel at home with any girl. Mr. Carpenter: Mr. President, I have invited a girl down already, I can tell her not to come, but I know that she will think I am trying to put something over on her. Mr. Moore: Mr. President, Mr. Carpenter is to be congratulated on having a girl who thinks about him. I am not so lucky, therefore I want to have a banquet so that I can have a girl up, and at least give her one thing worth thinking about. Mr. McLendon: Gentlemen have w-e considered the ethics of the situation? It is not good ethics to have such a scandalous celebration over the Senior ' s departure. The book says that it is not. I should as soon appear in public with a white dress tie anil a black vest. It would be a disgrace to try to do such a thing. Mi;. KlRVEN: Gentlemen. Mr. McLendon is as badly mixed on his terms as he is on the facts. Mr. McLendon does not mean ethics, he means etiquette, and he is wiimg about that. I know he is wrong: we do it at home, why not here? Mr. McLendon: book. I saw it. ' ' I am not wrong and I can prove it by the book. It is in the Mr. Kirvin: Mr. President. Mr. McLendon is wrong and I know it. I don ' t give a dern what the book says! In the meantime the eagle eye of Mr. Griffith has spotted a berry patch in the offing.

I can sell you the weinies, at a loss of course, and mavbe we ought to have a banquet. Let ' s ask Dr. Jones what to do. The Class votes to ask Dr. Jones. Having heard the case stated by each member of the class at least three times and by Mr. Kirvin four times, the good Doctor gives his decision: Dr. Jones: Naow voung gentlemen. I don ' t think that you need to be worried about the etiquette of the situation. We used to have neckt ' er parties when I was a boy, and we enjoyed them very much. At Davidson, why, er, er, NAOW, young men. I don ' t presume to advise you of course, other than in the light of experience; but I don ' t think that you need to let the ethics of the situation bother you either. Let him who is without sin live and learn! A great noise is heard in the hall, and the entire class rushes out to find Prof. Lilly weeping over the remains of his piccolo which he has broken while trying to carry it up the steps.
