M. Douglas Tirmity-Fonr «« V5I I« II}, V X XX 1 XI Davidson McDowell Douglas B.A., M.A.. D.D., LL.D. It is pleasant for us to review the fifteen years of service which Davidson McDowell Douglas has contributed to the growth, morally and materially, of Presbyterian College. A few months ago, we bade him farewell who had been father, brother, and friend to the many hundreds of students who have spent a few moments in Clinton for rest and preparation before renewing their jour- neys on the tracks of time. The great sculptors of Ancient Greece gave youthful energies and talents so as to mold a piece of stone that it might bear their message to the world after their own bones had crumbled into chalk. This kindly Christian spirit has turned his chisel upon immortal souls, dispatching them into the hungry vortex of life, carrying good-cheer, common sense, and sane judgment. For a decade and a half, he labored amongst us and left the imprint of his hands upon our campus. Buildings have sprung up, the offsprings of his fore- sight and ambition. Students have been attracted in large numbers by his per- sonality. Scholars have been glad to act as teachers under his congenial lead- ership. He worked, he prayed, he hoped. And out of the horizon, veiling the future like a curtain, came The P. C. of to-day, from the small beginnings which had been made when Dr. Douglas took up his work here in 1911. Kecognized as the premier college president of the state of South Carolina, this gentleman and scholar received the call to become the head of the State ' s university. He saw a vision of greater service, and accepted the new position. Our best wishes went with him when he left us last winter. It is vain as well as useless for us to express in words our appreciation of his services. He placed Presbyterian College on the educational map of the South. Its growing reputation is a beacon light to young students who wish the best type of advanced training. The institution is one of which the alumni are proud, an institution which has given memories which furnish the cooling shade for the discouraging moments of later life. Much of these benefits come from the hand of Davidson Douglas. Farewell, Dr. Douglas. We have seen you for the last time on our chapel platform. You left with us pictures that time could not erase. We see you at the head of a great university, lifting it to achieve greater heights, rising con- fident in success, undaunted by defeat. As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form, Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm. Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head.

Jr. i Historian ' s Note— Realizing that class histories, as a rule, are very rarely read because of their similarity. I hare endeavored to present our history in a different style. I hare doubts as to whether it will pass the eagle-c es of the editor, but in case this miracle does come to pass and you, gentle reader, fail to notice this masterpiece — it is your loss for I have performed my duty.) Time— 2000 A. D. Place — Presbyterian University (formerly Presbyterian College!. Scene — Class in history of the institution. Professor I to class of thoroughly bored-look- ing students: Gentlemen, in our study of the history of this noble institution we will take up for our lesson to-day the activities and honors of the Class of 1927. This Class stands out as one of the greatest contributors to the phenomenal growth of the university. The class entered college in Septem- ber. 1923. with a total of eighty young men. It selected as its first President Mr. Dudley MeCall and proceeded to acclimate itself. They passed very successfully through the barbarous practice of hazing , which we have discussed previously, and in the more brutal game called football the made an enviable record, tying with three other teams for the Freshman championship of this commonwealth. Also in basketball, track, and baseball, they performed creditably. They returned for their second year with their number decreased to fifty-four and under the leadership of Mr. Amos Moore proceeded with all determination to keep alive this ancient prac- tice of ' hazing which from records that we have we see that they did right well. On the athletic, teams this Class furnished brilliant per- formers and also shone with brilliance in the classrooms. In the fields of oratory, debating, science, music, and journalism the Class ■ ► i 27 also won distinction. For the first time in the history of the college. Sophs were elected to two of the three highest offices on one of the pub- lication staffs. When the Class returned for its Junior year those who had dropped by the wayside had greatly increased and only thirty-six men an- swered the roll call. This year Mr. William Bvers was chosen as president. The Class con- tinued to shine on the athletic field and in the classrooms. It was in this year that one b the name of Lee Hale Griffith, hailing from the dis- tant commonwealth of Arkansas, brought fame to the institution and to his Class by being nam- ed on the mythical All-S. I. A. A. football team and a ' so on the All-State eleven. Returning for the last year of its sojourn at this institution of learning, the Class chose as its leader Mr. Thomas Carpenter. By rights of seniority the Class headed all campus activities and continued its brilliant record of past years. Under the capable leadership of McLaurin. stu- dent government attained great efficiency. The football team, captained by Griffith, was the best in years, finishing the season in second place in the state race. Again Griffith was named on the two mythical teams. —All. I perceive some restlessness in the Class so I gather from this that the period is up. Gentlemen, you are dismissed. And now. dear reader. I will bring to a close this self-congratulatory story of our Class, but after all. we are not all class histories thus ' . ' I may vary the style of delineation, but I am hu- man in regard to the other and like praise. In all seriousness we have, as a Class, en- deavored to contribute our best to the college and in return we believe that we have gained greatly and have formed habits which will en- able us to attain even greater heights in this college which we are about .to enter — the uni- versity of the V orld. — Historian ' 27.

Oh how vastly important is this little word of time, yea, even more important than Past. Now let me see, how closely do these two words draw me near to my old classmates of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven. Everything seems hazy and I find myself in a state of what seems to be light fantastic dreams — I feel like a great god with the perfect vision of the future. It is indeed great to have all revealed to you. I thought; but then a fear was cast over my wretched soul for I might chance, in my vision, to picture evil and failure which is almost sure to stick its ugly head from behind the curtain of beauty, peace- fulness, and success Now, I have it all clear. There is no choas. Success and multitudinous joys reign supreme. I can see off at a distance a groping heap of silhouetts; they seem to be in a group — yes, sticking together as if bound by some fraternal chord which death i-t self could not part. They drew closer to- gether to me and as they came nearer and nearer I recognized some of my old class- mates with whom I parted twenty years ago. What is this? I asked, for I was a bit startled. A great feeling of delight thrust itself over me as each face in turn caught recognition of my profound thoughts. They still drew nearer to me and now all was clear — visually clear but not mentally so. I heard a voice from the rear sound out as if delivered by some friend who had made an indeed surpris- ing discovery. Trere he is, J. J. Adams — now all thirty-one of us are here. They came up to me and greeted me for it hap- pened that I was the last one of the class to be found but we were gathered once more with a glorious feeling of fellow- ship reigning supreme. Many jokes and old songs held our attention for quite a while; then, someone suggested that each man in turn tell something of his life and what he had accomplished during these twenty years since leaving our dear ole Alma Mater. As the roll was called each in turn gave the following account of himself: A. D. Abercrombie : I am now a pros- perous farmer, having three hundred acres of the best land in South Carolina and just as large a family — only thirteen girls and one boy whom I named Abie, Jr. I. M. Bagnal : Just a preacher as everyone thougth I would be but I make most of my money giving dancing lessons to co-eds at Carolina. V. B. Blankenship: Yes boys, I Have made a success of my life even if all of you did say I was doomed to fail, due to my sowing of too many wild oats in col- lege; for I now own the largest wholesale house in the South specializing, in Jamaica and Angusturia. Thirty-Eight ' « 5 S X = X.XX xxx:r 3  — 3 y x xz x ?=£ ? .xjl. Class Prophecy (Continued) N. Bright: I am now in my horns town Chattanooga and have been elected mayor for my second term of office. If any of my classmates are ever in trouble in the good ole town I ' ll swear that you were not drinking. P. W. Burns: Sure I am leader, but not of the R. O. T. C. band. I am leader of the York three piece string band, Play- ing everv Tuesday and Saturday nights at Rock Hill. W. B. Byers : I suppose most of you have heard Colie Blease left me a hand- some job and I am now the greatest poli- tician in the states since his death. My headquarters are in Washington, but once each year we go back to Blackstock to visit her parents. T. S. Carpenter: Just a surgeon ' knocking down ' fifty thousand a year. I had hoped to do better but as my health prevented I will be content with my lot, yes a lot of children, just nine. J. W. Copeland: I am still in Clinton and own one of the largest mercantile houses in the city, Yes, I said city for it has now grown considerably and has a population of some fifteen thousand. My business is fine and I am planning to re- tire in the next three years. H. R. Dickson: Perhaps you will ba surprised to know that I am professor of economics at the old school where our dear Professor James Boyd Kennedy left off — ves, I started ' on the margin of the book. G. C. Frampton : Potatoes, man pota- toes! Ten thousand cars of them I have raised and sold on my farm on ' Jim Oil- and, ' as I now own the entire ' Oiland. ' No, I have not married yet as I believe that they all want my money, and you can see how potatoes have made me a rich old bachelor. G. W. Gilmer: Little would you sup- pose that I am now the owner of Mr. Ford ' s automobile plant. I received my experience with Fords in college, for I bought them cheaper than they really look- ed. Once I remember purchasing one from old college-mate Joe F. Park, for $1.75 and after touring the whole of the U. S. I sold it for $75.00. I have begun the large scale production so I thus own practically everything in the Ford world. T. H. Grafton: Well, I like teaching in China fine, although it does take about sixteen hours a day studying, but I be- came accustomed to that in college. L. H. Griffith: Still working hard making money. I am president of the largest bank in Prescott and I really owe my success to the fundamental principles which I learned at the college by buying R. O. T. C. checks and making a ' neat ' interest of about forty per cent. W. H. Hafner: The First Presby- terian Church of Rock Hill claims me as their pastor. I have been such for seven years. A. S. Harris: Now, speaking of suc- cesses, I think I have made the greatest of them all. I married into a wealthy family in the ole town of Clinton and have a ' soft ' position with father (in-law), who is still president of Lydia Mill. O. W. Jones: Rings, pins, fraternity and safety, I am still selling now for I am vice-president of Balfour Co., Inc. All you men who have lost your little badges of ' Brotherhood ' just step up and I shall give you one — At Half Price! J. M. Kirven: Most of you have read of the wonderful team that South Caro- lina University has had for the last four years, I am sure. Well, I am the coach. I have been there now five years, and I am very well pleased with my work. J. D. Mclnnis: J. D. Mclnnis Son, Inc. ' is a sign that could not very easily escape the eye of a passerby as he enters the city of Lamar. I own the largest clothing store in the state and would like for all of you to ' drop ' in some day and ' get measured up ' . L. E. McLaurin: I bought the Clinton Hotel about five years ago and have made a number of improvements — but still serve Sunday night supper for fifty cents to college boys. H. C. McLaurin: Not meaning to be as egotistical as my dear friend Walt Whitman, but honestly Sumter just could- Thirty-Nine X X I I XX. ' • ' y ' M Class Prophecy (Continued) n ' t ' get along ' without me. I am Mayor and already own about half of the build- ings. I got my start by speculating and was blessed by the wand of Mother Luck. M. M. McLendon: If I do say it my- self, but modestly so, I am Billy Sunday ' s only rival. My training as an oratorical genius while at P. C. is most assuredly the cause of my potential mastery of peri- phrasis and circumlocution. (Dear Read- er, you will find them in the dictionary.) W. H. Moffat: Well boys, I married the year after I finished college and with these odds against me it is a miracle that I am what I am today — ALIVE. Other than this I am head coach South E a tern University. A. R. Moore: Men, behold the Co ffee King of America. Moore ' s coffee is drunk in over three million homes daily. I have cut down to six cups daily. L. E. Owens: I am a cotton broker and have been indeed successful, occupy- ing a seat in the New York Cotton Ex- change. It has always been a mystery to me why I chose this vocation as I have never had any desire whatsoever to gam- ble. A. H. Pitts : Just a Professor of French at P. C. Roger and I taught more French than Poincaire could speak on Armistice Day. A. B. Poe: I am vice-president of Mr. Joe Roddie ' s bank at Rock Hill I was told so much about the bank in Economics that I couldn ' t abstain from working there. G. R. Porter: I have just returned from the Philippines where I have been doing foreign service.

Sumter docs not stand alone in singing the praises of this sterling young man. for he is also claimed as a true son of P. C. There is always a smile and a pleasant word for everyone from Beck ' . • If him it may truly be said that he is an all- ' round man. His scholastic activi- ties have been numerous and varied. He has proved his grit on the athletic field, his intelligence in the cla ssroom, his ability in managerial positions, his wit in the famous bull sessions , and his heart in Georgia. In Beckham is blended honor, loyalty, sincerity, courtesy, and friendli- ness to make for him a winning personality that has endeared him to both the faculty and his fellow students. But greatest of all is the fact that he has so prepared himself morally, mentally, and physically, that his journey iromises to be colored with progress and crowned with success.

In his Sophomore year his interests began to bud, and ere he reached his third year they had blossom- ed into a full-bloomed flown-. In recognition of his faithful and versatile work he gained the appointments of student assistant in Bible and Biology, a rare attainment for an undergraduate. But his interests were not confined to scholastic studies as may be seen by the fact that he rose to the managership in track, and the editorship of one of the college publications. He also held membership in the journalistic and scientific fraternities, and was prominent in I. R. C. circles. Such attainments are in themselves eulogy enough, and would make further elaboration super- fluous.

Framp is a student of no mean ability; his ability as a soldier is exem- plified in the fact that he commands the ranking company of our battalion.

He lias proved himself to be a most ardent and suc- cessful suitor of this fair goddess, for she has smiled graciously upon him dur- ing bis four year courtship. Tommy leaves us with the glorious record of hav- ing written his name higher on the scroll of scholarship than any other student in the history of Presbyterian College, and this brilliant achievement will re- main a model which others will seek to emulate in the years that are to come. Tommy ' s collegiate career is ample proof that a student can really be a scholar and al the same time abstain from being a campus recluse. He entered enthusiastically into several branches of outside activities, and was especially proficient in track and journalistic circles, gaining his letter in the former and rising to the editorship of one the college publications. It has been a source of joy and inspiration to have been intimately associated with this modest young man, and we feel much richer for having known him. We predict for him a brilliant future as a scholar, one who will reflect glory and honor on his Alma Mater. tin because right is right, to follow right Were wisdom in the scorn of consequence.

McLendon has been a P. C. leader, and in many walks of academic life. First, lie has been a faithful and conscientious student, and leaves a well-satis- fied faculty who have found joy in instructing him. As editor of the Pac-Sac, he lia creditably performed one of the most difficult tasks which the student body has to intrust to m f its members. As cheerleader he has helped to in- flame the fighting Line Stockings with that spirit that brought victory after victory. He has headed organizations, and in each, took a commanding part. and saw progress. .Murray looks forward to a career in law, and with his powers of oratory, and other qualities, we predict for him a bright future.

He posesscs these desirable qualities and such possessions have endeared him to the hearts of all his fellow students, the faculty, and any others who may have been So fortunate as to know him. Many have often remarked that they sincerely be- lieved Slim was without an enemy. This would not be a compliment had lie been inactive in the various phases .of college activities; but when his college activities are considered, indeed such- a belief is a very high compliment. In basketball and track lie has scintillated and has made himself well known to all lovers of these games. His basketball ability was given due recognition when he was elected to the captaincy of the l!rJ7 team by Ins teammates. Concrete proof of his several abilities was given when he was elected to the lofty position of vice-president or the student body — a position which he ably filled while in office the tirst semester ; ami when he was selected as assistant editor of the 1927 Pae-Sae. And while writing of Slim ' s versa- tility in activities, let us not forget that he loves — really thinks that he has met the right girl. Those letters, those trips to Greenville, those dreams which he sometimes mentions, those marvelous plans of his — all go to make up a most wonderful case of love for this lad from the hills of Tennessee.

As to wit, no rarer quality has been possessed by Skeef ' ; and too, it is forever evi- dent. Sonic have said that the; man of humor is not as influential as the man of much seriousness. This true son of Presbyterian College has absolutely dis- proved such because it is a general admission on the part of all that Skcet has been one of the strongest of the leaders on the campus throughout his collegiate years. His wisdom in all college issues has been very valuable to us. May luck and success be with you in the time to come even as it has been in college.

C. campus was made more attractive la- the presence of a tall, handsome man. possessing: quite a winning smile. Upon inquiring we found that the new comer was our friend Lawrence, an A. T. 0. from the University of North Carolina and the big city of Winnsboro. As the years have passed Lawrence has won a place in the heart and ad- miration of each student — even though many have suffered from his practical jokes. His wit and humor, together with his good sportsmanship and high ideals create for him a most magnetic personality. At the first dance we found Lawrence possessed a trait we strongly sus- pected — that of being Ye ladies man. Bach of us remember him as the neat- est and best dressed boy in school, looking as if he were advertising Brooks Brothers or Finchley ' s clothes, slowly dancing in the corner of C ' opeland ' s Hall or Bois-Terre Country Club smiling down at some fair damsel — preferably a B. A. T. from Converse. Each time Lawrence had a different girl down for the Frolic . However, Lawrence has some serious qualities and occasionally is guilty of deep thinking. In Bible and Physchology classes lie often challenged the intellect of the professors by his questions, and frequently tells Mr. Gig — what he doesn ' t know! We are expecting great things of Lawrence, both in the business and social woi-ld. P. C. will be proud of this son. The glass of fashion, the mould of form. The observed of observers.

W. Grafton There has been in the lives of all of us who claim membership in the pres- ent Junior class one day whose impor- tance we can measure only in the most superlative terms, a day that has been a point from which we reckon time, a day that started us on the road to a higher education and at the same time toward the forming of some tie of friendship and regard to which our whole life will bear witness. It was that tenth day of September 1924, when we as Freshmen first enrolled as students in the Presbyterian College and assumed a part of the responsibil- ities that befell us as the lawfful prey of the Sophomores; that is to stand out in our minds as the starting point for one of the most profitable and pleas- ant periods of our lives. We were in the neighborhood of one hundred strong. Strange as it seemed to us at that time, we were of little conse- quence in the affairs of the school and Dr. Douglas and his able staff never asked us our opinion of anything. We were left to our own contemplation except for the ef- forts of the ever present upperclassmen who administered advice in no uncertain manner.. The new routne was soon a thing automatic and familiar to us. Soon we ajso became accustomed to the terrify- ing cries that would disturb our sleep, but it was a hard thing for some of us to g;t the idea into our heads that the college was beinfr run very satisfactorily without our aid. But like so many sheep we meek- ly bowed to the phenomena and it worried us no longer. Football claimed the usual number of our men in the fall and the prosperous season that we had had under the able leadership of Lonnie McMillian was an indicator of the great things that the school expect in the future from our class. Such names as Stamps, Wilson, Wither- spoon, Timmons, Stevens, Dugan, and Mc- Kenzie first came into the vocabulary of every P. C. football fan during the short season of five games in which the sturdy rat team lost but one game and that to an out of state team. Presbyterian ' s foot- ball stock went up and opposing teams be- gan to fear the avalanche from Clinton. In other branches of sport the example of the football team was ahered to, and in the classroom it was the same thing. Pro- fessors began to make their courses hard- er in order to flunk the regular percent- age but all to no avail. (They have been trying ever since to make their courses harder and have now succeeded to a re- markable degree. This was NOT intend- ed for a challenge.) The class of 1928 rolled over every obstacle in its path and emerged in the Spring much more refined and enlighted after its ordeal of fire. Summer days passed as they always do, and the first days of fall again found a goodly number waiting at the dining hall for the good meals that have become a by- word all over the state. New men had ai- so added themselves to our rank and these were promptly assimilated. The Fresh- were at once cast into the lake of fire and there was great weeping and wailing, but we were firm and broke the children of many of the bad habits that we had to Seventy-Five tiji jx li: .XX X X.T Class History (Continued) lay aside ourselves. Again our men be- came the mainstay of every team, they leaped into prominence in the classroom, glee club, and debating teams of the sta te. Coach Johnson ' s fighting Blue Stockings became known and feared on every ath- letic field and in every gymnasium. Few of our men fell by the wayside. Not many classes can show as steady a number of men throughout three years as we have, and the old familiar faces will never fail to show up at the end of a per- iod of vacation. Most of the class came to College with the intention of finishing here and nearly all of them have been able to fulfill their plans. There have been many noticeable changes here since our arrival. Shortly after we came Smythe dormitory was fin- ished in a manner that put it on a par with, if not above, any other dormitory in the _ south. At present time it houses a large proportion of our class and has many more years of usefulness. It is a monument to the generosity of the men that made it possible. In the same year Leroy Springs Gymnasium was complet- ed and added to our buildings one whose need had been felt here for a long time. It is now one of the best Gymnasiums in the land and has been the scene of many a lively battle. In the faculty we have had the pleasure of being with some of the most inspiring of men in classroom work. We had the training and guidance of Professor Lily while he was here and were greatly stim- ulated by his stay on the campus. His de- parture is one of the very few chances that we regret. Another member of the faculty to come our Sophomore year was Professor Brown. He stood it out one year with us as his only company but at the end of that time his patience came to an end and without warning or excuse he took unto himself a wife. He has now returned and settled himself for a long stay here. This year saw the arrival of Professor Gignilliat to take the place of professor Lily and his presence has filled the gap left in an efficient manner. The last change and one of the most important was that of the President of the College, Dr. Douglas answered the call of the University so the board took one of the University ' s best men, Dr. B. L. Parkinson, to replace him. We look for- ward to his hand on the wheel. The class of 1928 will be the first to go through its Senior year under his leadership. The days are passing. Soon the class of 1928 will finish its third year and will start out on the last lap of its journey. In looking back on our days here we can see many of the things we thought were great dwindle into insignificance and many of those matters we looked on as trifles assuming gigantic proportions. The little things that started the many friend- ships among us are now so much more im- portant than many of the trials we had to go through. We are hardly able to review the events of the past three years without seeingsome things stand clearly in relief. The achievements of some of our class- mates will go down as traditions in this col- lege. The work of others will be carried out with us when we graduate. We face a year of great hope and of equally grave responsibility. We face it however with- out the least misapprehension. The class of 1928 has stood the test before and in this the coming year, when as overloads of all that pertain to the student activi- ties on P. C. ' s campus, we are sure that there will not be found one man who will be weighed in the balance and found want- ing. Historian ' 28.

F. Marshall September 8. 1925. the student body of P. C. gazed upon a group of a hundred and ten vio- lent young men who were to compose the Class of 29. Although we appeared very dumb we soon found out that we were controlled by the pad- dle of the so-called Wise Sophomore , and with the various rules and regulations of the upper classmen we soon fell in the ranks and attained that good old P. C. spirit . When the call for Freshman football was giv- en, many responded. We also supported other forms of athletics — basketball, baseball and track, making an enviable record in each. Af- ter completing what we thought a very long and tedious year we came back to the campus bear- ing the title of Sophomore, of which we were exceedingly proud. We learned to use the paddle with great skill, and we enjoyed exer- cising our authority in this line. We were rough on Rats as can be testified by any member of the Class of 1930. We are not only good at entertaining the first year men, but we also contributed to the other more important activities of college life. On the varsity pig skin team that won second place in the state the Class of ' 29 was ably represented. There was never a game played but what one of these stars didn ' t shine, and we expect to develop material that will honor our Alma Mater by being selected for the mythical all-state eleven. Our men are striving to place ' 29 on top. When the 1926 season of the Blue Stocking team bad come to a close we found that seven of our bod) had earned the block letter which is con- sidered one of the highest honors that can be placed upon a college boy. To complete the other phases of college life some of our members are content to achieve honors in musical, forensic, and journalistic circles. Many are acquiring merit in literary lines and are doing splendid work for the var- ious college publications. We are slowly but surely convincing the fac- ulty, the student body and entire world that ue have an extraordinary assemblage of South Carolina ' s best sons. This probably should not be called a history, for that is yet to be made: but we are deter- mined to make a history that we shall be able to look back upon with no regret and with memories of joy and happiness. Then we think it is not inappropriate to propose a toast to the Class of ' 29: May it ever uphold the traditions and honor of old P. C. — Historian 29 Eighty-Nine SOPHOMORES WILLIAM D.

Almost the first thing that stared us in the fare were a number of suitcases, and of course we didn ' t mind a few little things like those. The first week of school the upper-classmen endeavored to make the Rats feel at home. The first thing they planned for us was the Rat Parade : this happened the second night that we were at school and it all started in front of Spencer Hall where we were gather- ed dressed in old clothes ami faces well-black- ened. From this point our line of march was through the Orphanage grounds and on up town where we enjoyed the hospitality of a number of the merchants of the town. With this entertainment in our behalf we began to return it by permitting a few of our number to sing and amuse onlookers with jokes. This was quite a good program to precede the gauntlet affair which took place immediately after. The following evening a Soph made an an- nouncement to the effect that all Rats were to meet in the chapel immediately after sup- per: so with an exceeding amount of fear we reported only to find more trouble coining up- on us. Here the same Soph announced that one in our midst had been given an egg while on parade the night before and for that gentle- man kindly to present the egg to the judge un- broken, and if such be impossible to appear before the jury for trial. The egg being brok- en in the scuffle the night before, the criminal appeared for trial. He of course was convict- ed and the Frosh jury with him. At last the long-lookod-for Saturday night came and we were entertained in fine style with an annual reception by the V. M. C. A. and this was our chance to meet the young ladies of the town and the Orphanage. Thus ending the week id ' fun we began to settle down to real work, different ones of out- number catering to various college activities. The first rail was that of Coach McMillian for Freshman football. About thirty respond- ed and also an equal amount answered for basketball, and when that of baseball and track go out I am sure that the class of 30 will iie as prompt in responding as ever be- fore. Our class is also well represented in the R O. T. ( ' . band and the Blue Stocking I frchestra. After a careful retrospection of our Freshman year we realize that it is the happiest period of our young life and that it is gone never to return. In spite of the fad that the Sophomores ruled us with an iron hand we would like to live it over again. It is a thing of the past so why worry over it ; because we expect to hand to next year ' s rats the same bitter dose. So with this happy thought in mind and looking forward to the time when we shall unite again in the ' loved walls of ole P. ( ' .. we prepare to end our first brief sojourn with her.

Johnson Director oj Athletics When Walter Johnson came to Clinton a dozen years ago, as a beardless youth to beard the limis that roared in their caves around P. C, ho faced difficult circumstances. Facili- ties wen- limited anil men were few. In his first season lie displayed that dash ami courage which won for him the affection of his boys, and the respect of all who knew him. For with a bare handful of inexperienced men. Walter moulded (lie great machines that have succes- sively mowed down every college in the state of South Carolina. The great coach has hail offers from other schools of greater size, bul lie has loved his friends in Clinton so well thai he has remained with us. His successes have brought him the feathered cap ami the title of the Miracle Man . His charming personality has won for him the undying love ami devotion of the men that have drilled under his direction, ami caught by contagion the flame of courage ami fighting spirit which has spelled success for many a field of battle. We can never say enough of his virtues. His faults are few. It is one of the priceless heri- tages of Presbyterian College graduates to go out into the world and recall and read of the achievements which P. C. has reached unde.- the guiding hand of Walter Johnson. L. S. McMillan Assistant Director The year 1915 was an important one for P. C. athletics. It brought to the local campus two men who were destined to play a com- manding ride in placing Presbyterian as a re- cognized competitor and challenger on the sport map of the South Atlantic Coast. McMillan played for P. C. in 1915, and 1916; went to France to serve his country during the war, and played again as all-South Carolina end in 1919 and 11120. He was recognized as one of the greatest football and basketball play- ers that ever competed in the Stale, while as a first baseman in baseball, he played bril- liantly. I.onnio was not through with his Alma Ma- ter when he received his diploma in the Spring of 1921. After a year of work with the Clinton High School he came to P. C. as Freshman coach in l!l°. 2. and immediately began to show his abilities as coach as well as his talent as a participant in the gridiron game. For five years, he has turned out fighting teams, that have made good records, and they have been the men which titled into the positions on the varsity squad under Johnson. Known and feared as one of the best of- fensive mentors in Southern gridiron circles, McMillan can look forward to many years of excellent service to his friends and College at Clinton. die Hundred Thirteen X V5 3 XX XXX IJHII X X.XX ry x x x x- x XjjLi xxpc :  m w Q 4 U 4 Q ™ Sturgeon , Spencer prps.

All S.I.A.A., ' 25, ' 26 Griffith came to P.

He played a good deal of the time in the backfield during his Sophomore year, but in 1925 was placed at tackle, his old position, ami he justified the faith of Johnson by playing brilliantly for hi-- last two years, making the All-State and All-S. I. A. A. elevens during both seasons. He opens great gaps in the enemy ' s breastworks for the backs to charge through and is peerless on getting down under punts. ROY A. BARNWELL Guard One of the fiercest guards in South Carolina. Handicapped by a bad knee. Cork is yet dreaded by all opponents. Another product of Thornwell Orphanage who has made good in col- lege football. As long as Barnwell can stand on his feet, he is counted upon to stop plays against his position, and open up holes of offense. Nature has not fitted him out to be a great player, hut Cork ' s ambition and fearlessness is triumphant. With two more years of service. he is looked to as a trouble maker for all who claim places on the Blue Stocking schedule. Fight ' em. Cork ! ROY ARNOLD HOGREFE Halfback Nub broke into prominence in the Wake Forest game with his uncanny ability in dodging and shaking off the golden clad tacklers. In the Oglethorpe game one of Atlanta sports writer re- marked that Hogrefe was the most intelligent broken field runner he had seen in Atlanta in 1926. Roy is the lighest man on the squad, and it was this 135 pound parcel who turned defeat into victory against Oglethorpe. With the score standing 13 to 12 in favor of the Petrels and with the sun slowly slopping behind the giant skyscraper in front of Spiller field, the Nub suddenly leaped up from apparently nowhere and grabbed Stamp ' s pass and ran thirty yards until he had crossed the Petrel goal. It is a source of gratification and joy for us when we realize that Roy has two more years to wear the Garnet and Blue for his Alma Mater. One Hundred Nineteen li-.I yTIIXI III MARION KIRVEN Center and Fullback For the past three years Matty has been one of the mainstays of the powerful Presby- terian finward wall, and it was in that position that he starred for the greater part of the past season. He was one i f the most versatile men mi the Blue Stocking squad, and because of a dearth of backfield material was frequently called on to hold down the fullback berth when injuries crept ai g the regular backs. He was a power in backing up a line, and was a human trac- tor mi ploughing through an enemy ' s line with tin ' ball. In tin ' last two games of the season, those with Citadel and Oglethorpe, it was largely dun to Kirven ' s defensive work that the Bine Stockings came out at the big end of the score. But Matty was more at home in the pivot position than any other place, and was n glutton for tackles behind the enemy ' s line of scrim- mage, lie received votes for all-slate center, and there are many observers who believe that he lost the season to the backfield. But this loyal lad was glad to make the personal sacrifice for the good of the team. He has played his last game for his Alma .Mater, and we all sorrow at his leaving. ALVA MAYES GREGG Guard P. ( ' . was well supplied with guards, with Bus Gregg, Neighbors, and Barnwell available. A misfit for two seasons at end. this sturdy forward was placed by .Johnson in U-o at guard and at once saw visions of better things, lie was a bulwark in the Wake Forest battle, and after that, he played consistently in a strong line. Gregg is buill to play his position, and though ii t fast, he is hard to Kit by. ' This Rock Hill player has won the uniform of the Gar- net and Blue for the last time. Farewell, Gregg, and when you face life ' s struggles, may you he as dauntless, and stand with the same unflinching courage which you displayed in the Blue Stocking battle line.

STEVENS End Xeil has just rounded out his second year as a member of Walter Johnson ' s scrappy bunch of Hlue Stockings, and this seasoned veteran of the gridiron is looking forward to his final year. He stalled his gridiron career under the tutelage of Lonnie McMillian at Thornwell High, and was a member of the Thornwell championship team of ' 23, and also a member of the famous Presbyterian freshman eleven of ' 24 that went into a tie with Furman for the championship of South Carolina. Xeil is short and stocky, but on punts is always one of the first men to get down anil nab the receiver of the punt. He started the Presbyterian scoring last Fall when he scooped up a Clemson fumble and ran thirty yards for a touchdown, and in the Wake Forest game Xeil nabbed Stamps ' pass and raced fifteen yards to the Deacon five yard line before be- ing brought down by the safety man — the play that enabled the Blue Stockings to score shortly afterwards. Much is expected from this sturdy little Thornwell lad during his last year with us. and we know him well enough to know that he will not disappoint us. JAMES ADDISON NEIGHBORS Guard Another home town player who made Johnson ' s brilliant eleven during his sophomore year. Hurt early in the season, he was yet able to take part in several of the Blue Hose major achievements, and won glory for himself and his Alma Mater. At Clemson, tie met intercol- legiate warfare for the first time, ami filled one of the doubtful posts at guard in no uncertain fashion. A former captain of the Clinton High School eleven, and a man of fiery determi- nation, and experience. Cotton added new laurels in this, his first year on the varsity, and gave promise of greater things in 1927. One Hundred Twenty-One x J  i in x x i -:rxjt3XXxxx ii iiiix: x x J8w Vx V-sKTx JWU. SrCixY, . CHARLES W. WILSON Fullback This redheaded fullback was one of the ' most conspicuous objects ii Atlantic coast gridirons this fall. Declared experts to bo the greatest pass recevier seen in South Carolina during the last five years. Made his great play of the season when he received a pass and ran forty yards for a touchdown against Furman. Was a hem in the Oglethorpe same. Famed for his master- ful defensive playing, he is a good line plunger, and scored more than any other player in the state except Pipkins of Furman. JOE OWENS Halfback Joe was the find of the most successful season in the history of Presbyterian College — 1926. He was a member oi lasl year ' s freshman outfit, ami aside from his punting was re- garded as a middling backfield man on the firsl year eleven. He came back to Clinton in his sophomore year endowed with a superabundance of the elements necessary in the make up of a superior soldier of the gridiron — grit, diligence, and perseverance. As the season progressed he progressed in the manly art of ploughing through a line, in receiving passes and hooting the cowhide. In the last two games of the season he was one of the outstanding stars in the fan- ciful Presbyterian constellation. He opened the savage assault on The Citadel when he smashed through tackle for eighteen yards, and in the affair with Oglethorpe it was Joe who lured the elusive oval into his waiting arms ami ran twenty five more yards for Presbyterian ' s first touch- down. Joe was mentioned by some observers as all state material, and with two years left in which to display his wares we are confident that he will land the coveted berth before his col- legiate career is finished. SHIRLEY A. TIMMONS End When Timmons was an end on the Clinton High eleven in 1923 his brilliant playing brought a string of victories to the Alma Mater for which he was fighting. Hi ' .ami ' to college iii the following year, and made the freshman eleven. Although small, he ha- played excellent ball on the varsit] team for two seasons. In the Furman conies;, he and Stevens drew Carter Lati- mer, the well-known -port writer, to his feet with the exclamation, They ' re little, hut they ' re hell. And Shirley isn ' t far l ' r that locality when he wears a blue jersey and slops on the gridiron. A crackerjack pass receiver, he also plays a g I game at defense, and is counted on as a strong cog in next year ' s machine. Sp 1 One Hundred T n-enty-Two HERBERT BLAKE Guard Here ' s another find of the L926 season. Pooley ' s great opportunity came in the sec- ond game of the season — the hard fought affair with Davidson. Polo Griffith was a sick man. and Coach Johnson threw Pooley into the yawning gap made by the absence of the nigged Blue Stocking Captain. Blake fought like a maniac during the whole game and repeat- edly knifed through the Davidson forward wall to nail the fleet backfield men in their tracks for telling losses. He continued his slashing tactics in practically every game even after Cap- tain Griffith had returned to the lineup. Pooley has one more year, and great things are expected of him. WILLIAM POSEY BLALOCK End Every successful team must of necessity have some strong, dependable reserve material on tap ready to run out on the field at a moment ' s notice. Presbyterian keenly felt the need of this material when the Blue Stockings encountered the Golden Avalanche from Wake Forest in Asheville, and it was Billy Blalock who rose to great heights when he successfully filled the shoes of Shirley Timmons who had been injured in practice a couple of days before the crucial contest with the North Carolina Baptists. It was this selfsame Billy who fell on a punt which James of Wake Forest had fumbled on bis own thirty yard line, the recovery by Presbyterian resulting in an open road to the goal line after additional skirmishing. Blalock will don a Blue Stocking uniform next fall, and will be a source of strength to the Johnson eleven. JEREMIAH FRANCIS McKENZIE, Jr. Center Jerry was one of the lightest men on the Blue Stocking squad, weighing a shade less than one hundred and forty pounds. But he held down one of the most trying and important posi- tions on the eleven, and what he lacked in weight he more than made up for in physical and moral courage. We felt safer with Jerry and his 139 pounds at center than we would have felt with a 200 pounder with less courage and fighting quality. In the frenzied fracas with Davidson Jerry received a severe injury to one of his ankles, an injury that put him on crutches for upwards of six weeks, and that caused him some misery for the entire remainder of the season. But in spite of that serious handicap he always made his presence strongly felt in the middle of the line, so that very few plays were attempted over this position. Jerry lias one more year with us, and this is one of the reasons why we are expecting to enjoy another successful year in 1927. One Hundred Twenty-Three tiT tjxji miy:ii i iiiix r z. - - J .

One Hundr ed Twenty-Four RESUME OF THE SEASON By winning seven out of a hard schedule of nine games, thereby finishing second in South Carolina and third in the S. I. A. A., Prebyterian College hung up last Fall the most impressive gridiron record in her history. Coach Johnson ' s eleven finished in the S. 1. A. A. ahead of any other South Carolina team. A break in the last quarter of the game with the Purple Hurri- cane robbed the Blue and Red of a tie for first place in Palmetto football. September first found Johnson working out with his veterans. It was in all essentials tlie same sipiad that had gone through a disappointing season the year before. Some of the old players had made their last appearance in a crim- son jersey. Anion the new fares were Hogrefe, Dunlap, Barnwell, Owens, Neighbors, and Weldon. The opening- game was with the Clemson Tigers, who had set the P. C. Bat- tle as the attraction for Home-Coming Day. Smarting under the defeat of the previous year, the Clemson players had resolved to trample the Blue Stockings under foot. But it was not long after the whistle had blown for the reopening of the hostilities that the entire group of spectators realized that it would be only a matter of time before the stronger eleven from Clinton wore out the Tigers. Stevens recovered a fumble and ran thirty yards to the goal in the early moments of the second quarter. Shortly after, a series of line plays and passes brought the leather to the Clemson five yard zone and Wilson reeled off a pretty run around left end for the touchdown. The scoring was ended, and Presbyterian left the field rejoicing ovver the 14 to victory. The second game was against Davidson in Rock Hill and the Blue Stock- ings found themselves unable to shake off the jinx that has pursued it since 1923. The game was full of contested rulings by inefficient officials. The Wildcats kept the Blue Stockings on the defensive throughout the first two quarters, and Dick Grey booted a Held goal from the 25-yard line as the Pres- byterians from Clinton stiffened in the vicinity of the goal line. Coming back in strong fashion the second half, Stamps and his assistants threatened repeat- edly to score, but the game ended before the threat materialized. Davidson won, . ' ! to 0, in one of the greatest battles of the year. Erskine invaded tin; precincts of the Calvinists and went home, beaten by 34 to 0. The contest was marked by the brilliant work of Blackie Owens and Red Wilson, the latter crossing the goal line for four touchdowns. Owens made brilliant runs for considerable yardage. The Presbyterians were saving up for Wake Forest and showed none of their tricks, coming out of the batttle at the right side of a 34 to count. The eye of the entire State was focused on P. C. as she journeyed to Ashe- ville to meet the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest. The opposition was substan- tially the same that had won over the University of North Carolina. The John- son men swept down the field in the first quarter, and should have scored but were held off by the powerful North Carolina line. Early in the second pe- One Hundred Twenty-Five rind a long pass. Stamps to Stevens, placed the hall on the goal line, where Stamps catapulted over stiff opposition on the third down for the touchdown. Wake Forest came back in the fourth period and pushed the blue sweatered eleven to the onle foot line, hut met stout resistance. On the fourth attempt, the Wake Forest hacks tried the Presbyterians at left tackle, and the great Witherspoon hurled back the onset with the help of a driving tackle from Red Wilson. Some moments later Stamps grabbed a Wake Forest pass out of the ether and raced eightv yards for the second touchdown. The game was over. P. C. 13, Wake Forrest 0. Then came the Furman game in Greenville, the most brilliant and hard- fought contest staged within the state during the entire season. For two soul- stirring quarters, the teams battled on even terms with the state title hanging in the balance. After the rest between halves, the Purple Hurricane battered its way to the twenty yard mark, where Rawl on a triple reverse — the play that beat Georgia and Citadel — waltzed over the line. Pipkins booted a perfect goa,l and Furman was leading by seven points. P. 0. resorted to long passes, and one was completed, Stamps to Wilson, for a gain of forty yards, but was recalled on an off-side penalty. Standing on his forty yard line, the Blue Stocking quarter flipped a pass to Wilson for an- other attempt, and the big blonde brushed off three Furman tacklers and raced to the goal line. Davis was in his path, but the Presbyterian tumbled over the line with the ball. Stamps kicked the goal to make it a tie. Furman took advantage of a short punt which fell on Stevens ' head, to push her way to the goal post shadows, where Pipkins and Blount carried the pigskin over for the winning touchdown. Two weeks later the Blue Hose journeyed to Spartanburg, and enjoyed the opportunity of administering a sound spanking to the Wofford Terriers. Stamps and Owens were the heroes of the game, which ended 25 to 0. On Home-Coming Day, the Newberry eleven, jubilant over two successive triumphs at the expense of the Blue Stockings came to Clinton, and went, back the loser by 28 to 0. Ilogrefe and Owens sparkled with their long runs, while Griffith and Witherspoon were giants on the defense. On two occasions, these taekles hit the Indians so hard that the runners dropped the ball, P. C. recov- ering with goal to go. The climax of the season came during Thanksgiving week. Meeting the strong Citadel team in Charleston over which it had not secured a win since 1922, the P. C. team completely outclassed the Cadets and won by a safety and a touchdown. Time after time, the Blue Hose fought their way to scoring dis- tance, only to be repulsed. A safety contributed by Owens, and Stamps ' run for a touchdown with an intercepted pass, accounted for the nine points, which was the summation of the day ' s scoring. The P. ( ' . line met sturdy opposition in the Citadel forwards, hut proved themselves to be the equals of what was considered one of the strongest lines in Southern football. With only a day ' s rest, the Presbyterians found themselves in Atlanta for the last game with Oglethorpe University. The Petrels had beaten Furman ami Georgia Tech and were eager for a win to close the season. Campbell One Hundred Twenty-Six xiiizij:atTi; ir x xx x x xy-r -r x Tiz f iyTg iixi TiTtyi xzitxizizgTi; x .xxx xxx x xi x r , i T f slipped through the Blue Stockings in the open minutes of play, and made the score 6 to 0. Early in the second quarter Jimmy Stamps flipped a long pass to Owens for the touchdown kicked his goal, and saw P. C. leading by one point. Oglethorpe again scored through trick plays and line assaults, but Stamps kicked a field goal to trim the Petrels 13 to 10 at the half. The Oglethorpe players had used their tricks, and the second half belonged to the South Carolinians. Campbell, kicking on the fourth down from a haz- ardous position behind the posts saw his kick bounce back from the uprights to be recovered by P. C. for a safety. Stamps gave P. C. the victory when he passed to Hogrefe for a touchdown near the end of the third half. One of the heroes of the game was Wilson, who got nearly every tackle until he was in- jured and removed from the contest. The Blue Hose had scored 14S points to their opponents 29, and were only behind Centenary and Chattanooga in the Association standing. The wonder- ful defensive work of Kirven, Griffith, and Witherspoon had been largely re- sponsible for the brilliant defense record, only three teams scoring on the P. C. eleven, one of them being winner by a field goal. The Presbyterians were honored by public opinion as well as by winning scores Stamps, Witherspoon, and Captain Griffith making the All-State eleven. Griffith was for the second time accorded a place on the All-S. I. A. A. team at tackle. With a heavy schedule arranged for 1027, and the loss of only two regu- lars in Captain Griffith and Kirven, Presbyterian College can confidently look forward to a season of equal satisfaction in the coming campaign.

One Hunched Twenty-Nine ii iii.XJtjii xx-xx xxxxxxxxx nijjiy: Prospectus With only two men gone out of the Blue Stocking eleven that took seven out of nine games last Fall, the gossips and forecasters are not to be denied a little specula- tion as to the coming season. There is no great amount of optimism in the statement that Presbyterian College should enjoy a great season in 1927. Unless several of the Blue Stocking players are bodily removed from gridiron activities, the Presbyterians will have another strong representation. There will be a veteran backfield with every man back, strengthened by additions from the Freshman Squad. Stamps, at the stern, will have his last season as the pilot of the offensive craft. And Jimmy is as good as will be found. A great triple-threater, he has made a name for himself through the entire South Atlantic region by his bril- liant passing and running with the ball. Charlie Wilson, his red-headed classmate that was identified with him in high school ball, and who has been highly favored by South Carolina crowds for his ability as a pass receiver, will also be back and looking for trouble. Hogrefe, a ten-second man that ran riot in Atlanta with long returns of punts, and Owens, a splendid punter and line smasher, complete the quadrangle of brilliant old-time backs. Galloway and Mills of the first year squad may be counted on to furnish reserve strength. Galloway is a brilliant star of the first magnitude, and should run rings around varsity opposition in his first year. Many old linesmen are back. Witherspoon, the fancy tackle of last season, regarded by many experts as the leading tackle of the S. I. A. A., will face his farewell season. We do not stop to add to his praises here. Two third year ends in Timmons and Stevens will be stopping stray trips around end, and looking to Jimmy for a few aerial thrusts. Among the guards will be Neighbors and Barnwell. Herb Blake will be on hand to fill the gap left by the graduation of Captain Griffith, and McKenzie will step up to relieve Sheriff Kirven. There are some promising men coming up from yearling ranks. The season opens with the clash against Clemson w-hich the Blue Hose has taken as the occasion for opening a good season the past two years. Then comes a possible encounter with Duke, which the Presbyterians expect to win by several touchdowns. A battle with Wake Forest will bring interest, as the Baptists are always powerful, and doubtless will put up a strong fight to retrieve the 13 to obligation of a few months ago. The game with Mercer in Macon promises to be one of the outstanding conflicts of the season, as the Mercer boys always stand near the top in the Association, and are universally feared. Wofford Terriers at Clinton look like noodle soup to the men who conquered them 25 to 0, but Erskine, reenforced by a magnificent crowd of first year stars, will be an unknown quantity in the Rock Hill stadium. Oglethorpe will be next opponent in Atlanta, where the Presbyterians won fame at the last meeting of the two rivals. Newberry, always a dangerous foe on her home ground or any other ground, will be hosts to the Hose, and then the season will end with the usual run-to with the Cita- del in Charleston on Thanksgiving. If both Furman and P. C. are undefeated in the state, a post-season game for the championship will be played in Greenville December 3rd. All things considered, football tickets will bring good prices in 1927. Om Hundred Thirty- iijiiUxiiiiTimiuiiniin i; x. Jjll jyllllll l ll Basketball W. H.

ROBINSON, Center (Acting Captain) Robinson developed into an ideal center, and was able to get the jump on his rival in almost every contest. He played thp floor in good style, passed accurately, and was able to ring the basket at opportune times. Robinson made the team a splendid leader, after Moffatt ' s deprivation of the captaincy early in the season, and will be missed in next year ' s line-up. He has fought his last battle for his Alma Mater. J. A. STAMPS, Forward Stamps eased into heroes ' row when he put the Newberry game on ice with his cool and consistent shooting. With two minutes to play and Clemson pressing for points, he scored a long shot that decided that game. Stamps was a sure shot from the side- lines, and received many passes from mates in the corners, which he tossed with appar- ent indifference into the netting. With more players possessing his eye for the basket, the season ' s record might have been different. His graceful form and excellent play will delight crowds for yet another year. PALMER KNIGHT, Guard A team without strong guards is helpless on a basketball floor, and this year, P. C. has been fortunate in possessing several excellent backs. Knight is playing his second year for the Blue Stockings. He has the knack of breaking up offensive play directed at his goal, and always keeps his forward well covered. He combines fast play with hard endurance, and shows up as one of the most rugged of the Blue Stocking defenders. P. C. is glad to have Knight back on the list next year, where he has big games in which to show ability. One Hundred Thirty-Three I I1 i? IXIII J Ii 5 ;l 1TI ?ilJ.ii %JC -X.-X 1 X X X X 5ZX ? C. W. WILSON, Forward Had Charlie the ability to cage the ball, he would undoubtedly be one of the great players of South Carolina. It was his only weakness. His passing was uncanny, baff- ling, and unexpected, and through it, he was able to advance the ball through almost im- pregnable defense. With his eye on one man, he would flip the ball deftly into the hand of a teammate who would score before the astonished guards could find out who had the ball. Wilson ' s dribbling and all-around play elicited much favorable comment. He will strengthen next year ' s five. G. R. PORTER, Forward Work deserves reward, and Rod got to play in a good many games in his Senior year, and made a creditable showing. He is a model worker, and few have been more faithful than he in practice, or more willing to do his part in a game. Porter leaves the College leaving behind him the reputation of a clean sportsman, and loyal and hard- fighting teammate. L. L. DUNLAP, Forward Pete was the best shot the team had in the past season, and in game after game he showed that he could locate the basket as good as any, Johnnie Douglas of the Citadel excepted. Another product of Thornwell Orphanage, he showed the same form which won recognition in high school circles. The Clemson game in Clinton was the battle in which he became the darling of Clinton fans, as he shot goal after goal when Clemson threatened to win. Pete, we expect big things from you in your next two years. Keep your eye on the basket. One Hundred Thirty-Four JXx x x x x- x x x x xx,x i x 1 xxx ri lx x j i f J. H.

On the basketball floor, he played a daring and consistent game at guard, breaking up much of the opposition ' s offensive play, and breaking through himself for occasional shots at the basket. Play- ing his second season, he showed vast improvement, and promises to be even better at the next call. W. D ADAIR. Guard Clinton has produced many athletes, but we like the looks of old Bill Adair es- pecially. At guard, he has an unbelievable reach, and it ' s a hard matter to throw the ball where he can ' t get his fingers on it. Adair climbs into the ozone after them with the same ease in which Jack, of old, assailed the heights of the bean-stalk. His first year of varsity service brought him out as a seasoned veteran of the first water, and he looks good for more worlds to conquer. One Hundred Thirty-Fire iirj,XXJiixii jii} x;iisijii|ryL x 1. I I I V 111 ' 1 1 31 RESUME OF THE SEASON So used lid the supporters of Presbyterian College and her Blue Stocking teams become to seeing the garnet and bhie flutter in triumph over the football field that when winter came, and the crowds repaired to the basketball floor, they could not overcome the desire to see P. ( ' . win nut in the indoor sport. And those who followed the Presbyterians through the campaign of last winter got a good many thrills. Despite a couple of terrific setbacks at the hands of South Carolina and Purman, the team went through a very successful season. For the first time in many years, the hoys of Walter Johnson turned hack Newberry on the Clin- ton floor before an audience that went into hysterics. From the opening whis- tle, it was evident that the Blue Hose were out to win. an das they shot basket after basket, and the Newberrians became more and more desperate, feeling rose to riotous frenzy, and the scoreboard finally recorded the lead of the Clinton rive by a margin of seven or eight points. The defeat of Newberry would, in itself, have made the season a successful one, but other games were yet to he added to the list of games W on by the Stockings. The P. ( ' . ball-tossers visited Spartanburg booked to meet Wofford, and Wofford had won the state championship during the season of 1!)26. It was a surprise to every one who followed the state race when Presbyterian came out of a slump of some weeks and handed the Terriers a 43 to 27 drubbing. P. ( ' . defeated the Tigers of Clemson in two games, hut this was merely an extension of a long series of triumphs. Since 1924 the P. C. five has never lost two games i ie season to Clemson, though several of these bitterly fought contests have been decided by the scantiest of margins. The Hose encamped in Tigertown for the first game on the eve of the battle with Furman ' s Purple Wind. Where the embattled farmers of Clemson stood the P. C. basketeers fired the shots heard all over the state, and left the Tiger considerably tamed down. Later in the season the wearers of the Gold and Purple jumped on a Clinton-bound bus to gel revenge. For two halves the fighl see-sawed with first one team Leading, then tin 1 other. Finally. Clemson was awarded a toss from the foul line. The player in purple failed to make it good, and the whistle blew immediately after his attempt. A five-minute extra period was played. Jimmie Stamps and Lonnie Dunlap shot goals thai made the hair rise on the scalps of the observers, and the final score was :i!l to 38 in favor of the Presby- terians. The College of Charleston was defeated at both home and abroad. In the game on tin- local floor, the lads from the coast put up a splendid game through- out the first half, but fell far behind in the closing moments of play. However, their brothers from the Citadel decided that the landlubbers were getting too many from the coast folks and trimmed I ' . ' . in a couple of games to advance the cause of equality, fraternity, de cracy. and the other evils id ' society. a, i, Hundred Thirty-Six Iilizn irij Douglas, the diminutive Imt magnificient forward of the Cadets had out shown as a distant bid for ail-American honors, and all those that witnessed the affair would pronounce anathemas on all who left him off the mythical selec- tion. He never missed the basket when he attemped to score, although one? or twiee he threw the ball up against the rim just to show folks that it was through no law of physics that the ball was seeking shelter in the basket. Later on, the Cadets came out in the Southern Association meet as well-de- served champions Douglas being the tourament leader in point earning. Johnson decided to look over some new territory, so curried the boys down for a few skirmishes with Atlanta quintets. The team lost both games in the 1 ig city, but won favorable comment from those who saw the game, and also from newspaper reporters. Deciding to take on a foe that was a genuine one. Coach Walt and his charges embarked for Athens, and lost to the University of Georgia. Hut the Georgians were a strong aggregation and had defeated powerful teams, so the Blue Stockings were proud of the twenty-five points which they were aide to score. After the game was over, tin- Georgia coach remarked that his team had played better against P. ( ' . than against any other opponent they had met dur- ing the season. All of which was of some encouragement to the Red and Blue players. Well, the tournament came around, as tournaments will come, and P. C. ran it off by losing the first game to Chattanooga. Furman was eliminated to the surprise of many, and left the Citadel to uphold the honor id ' the Palmetto State, and they did their part nobly by winning the last game by a single point. The team was composed of Stamps, Dunlap, Porter, and Wilson at forward. Stamps and Dunlap were the most reliable shots hut Wilson played best on the floor, dribbling and passing with great skill. Robinson at center proved himself a capable player. Witherspoon and Adair did most of the work at guard, but Knight was occasionally called on, and he responded in good fashion. So friends, down goes the curtain for the season of 1927, ami if you ' ll for get about the losses, and drink the cup of victory with us. you ' ll probably agree that 1927 was pretty prosperous for the Garnet and Blue. One Hundred Thirty-Seven P C Basketball As Viewed By The Critics Dunlap, playing at forward, was a veri- table terror for the local team for the rest of the half, being able to drop the sphere in the hamper almost at will. — Neivs and Courier. It is hard to describe the all-round work of Witherspoon. From beginning to end he covered the floor as if he had wings to fly on. — The State. Presbyterian College showed consider- able improvement over previous games, especially in the meeting of ringing bas- kets.— The State. Robinson played a scintilating game at center, getting the ball to his teammates every time at the top-off, and doing some deadly target work. — News and Courier. The Presbyterians started off with a vim in the second period, Stamps open- ing the argument by dropping a long shot into the basket. — News and Courier. Dunlap was characterized as a deadly tosser in shooting goals, as his 15 points would seem to intimate. — News and Cour- ier. The Presbyterians had a splendid de- fense in Adair and Witherspoon, who kept the Maroons at a distance from the coveted basket, except at rare intervals. — Neivs and Courier. Dunlap ' s weird tosses keep Presbyter- ians in running close at half. — The State. Presbyterian College won a spirited bas- ketball game from Clemson here to-night, 24-16. Dunlap and Stamps led their team in the battle, which was featured by desperate defensive playing. — The S ' tate. In the play-off Presbyterian jumped in- to the lead when Dunlap tossed one in from near center. Clemson came back with a snowbird, and Robinson rang a back-handed shot to put Presbyterian out in front for the victory. — The State. Pete Dunlap and Stamps tied for high point honors for the locals, each lad ac- counting for nine points. — The Blue Stock- ing. With only a minute to play, Stamps put P. C. again in the runinng with a long shot from the center of the court, and Dunlap whipped one in from almost the same spot two seconds before the whistle to put Presbyterian in the lead for the first time during the second half. —The State. For the Presbyterians the playing of Dunlap was outstanding and he deserves the major portion of credit for what his team accomplished. — The News and Cour- The work of the Presbyterian aggrega- tion in this period was of the best. There was good passing, clever footwork, and some good marksmanship displayed. — The News and Courier.

' -7 season hanging: in attractive colors in the halls of memory, Presbyterian looks forward with new hope to the 1928 season, confident of seeing even better success. There will be many varsity veterans out for their last year of competition, and the Freshman five, which lost the state championship in the last game of the season, has several likely stars to send up into the ranks of the first-team players. Looking over the material which will be on hand next January, we see from varsity ranks; Jimmie Stamps, veteran forward of two seasons: Charlie Wilson, the red-haired sensation who can dribble the ball to the bounds of eternity and back; Spoon Witherspoon the giant guard into whom few care to crash; Knight, guard; Dunlap, whose shooting was the bright spot in the past season ' s offensive play; and Wild Bill Adair, whose long arms were hard for the ball to elude, and who would be a strong contender for a guard birth on any team. From the rat five, there will be; Galloway, the best P. C. basketball player since .Jack Wilson terrorized the state, and around whom Lonnie McMillan built his great Freshman Team; Shackelford, the crack guard from Mississippi, playing side with Mason the local lad: the Walker brothers; Keels and Adair, a pair of dazzling forwards; and Roberts and Chip Grafton, as reserve guards. Of these Galloway looks like all-state stuff. He is a real star, able to dribble shoot, and pass equally well. Caldwell also shown at forward. This will be the most attractive material that Johnson has had for some time, and he should be able to turn nut a fast quintette. P. C. realizes that for the first time in many seasons she can look to a strong representation in the indoor sport next winter. There ill be a good many forwards of ability who will be in for part-time Labors through their very number. Centers will be larking, but it is possible that Johnson will use some of his forwards in the pivot spot. The guards are sturdy and fast. The schedule will probably include the usual opposition: Clemson, whom P. C. has defeated consistently in the last four years; Furman, state champions; Citadel, champion of the Southern Association; Newberry whom the Clin- tonites have found are no longer invincible but can topple like others; Wofford; Carolina; and perhaps Georgia and other out-of-state teams. We made no predictions as to the scores, hut feel confident that P. C. looks to a big season in 1928. P. ( ' . will have her old coaches. Johnson and McMillan, and they have been plenty good in times past. While things have not been rosiest for the Hose in basketball of the past, they have perked up tremendously in the past season, and there is no reason for expecting an unsuccessful termination to next year ' s campaign.

JONES, Catcher (Captain) Bill specializes in the catching department, when he isn ' t hitting ' em, and Bill knows how to bang out a hit. He started out slugging his Sophomore year, and he is still going. There is never a time when Bill likes to hit a home run so well as when the bases are full and his team is behind, and then the infield play out, because Bill is looking them over for a long drive. Bill has a good peg, stops them every time behind the bat, and is an excellent base-runner. P. C. will miss his work next year, for Bill is playing his last games. C. T. MARTIN, Pitcher A left-handed pitcher that holds his first two opposing nines to one hit apiece, without yielding runs is likely to attract attention, and Martin, the great Presbyterian Sophomore hurling ace, did just that in his first two starts this season. Chester was a famous lad in high school before he came to us. He is cool and resourceful on the hill, never rattled, has excellent control and a curve like a boomerang, and hits them to all parts. He is a team in himself, and strengthens an aiready potent aggregation. J. A. STAMPS, Right Field Some one made the remark last Fall that Jimmie Stamps was the most graceful man in a football uniform that he had ever seen. Well, Jimmie looks mighty near as good in his baseball togs. Playing his second year for the Blue Stockings, he is out catching the flies, though he is also a pitcher of ability. Stamps is also proficient with the stick, and hangs up a good batting average. One Hundred Forty-Three i ir ncjijxii jiix B iiizji iy; W. D. ADAIR. Pitcher Bill can play any position on the team, and his versatility makes him extremely valuable as a general utility man. A graduate of Clinton High, where he made a good high school pitcher, he came to P. C. two years ago, and made both basketball and base- ball. He is being used in different positions this year, some in the outfield, but is showing marked development, and should become a regular with another campaign ' s seasoning. J. H. OWENS, Second Base There was doubt as to who would cover second this year, until Joe speared a couple of impossible flies one afternoon, hit a couple of triples, and let Coach Johnson know that second base was no longer anything to worry about. Joe has played brilliantly in the early season campaign, and with added confidence from successful battles, he should become one of the best men on the local team. F. M. HART, Catcher Hart, although small in size, gives promise of being a real ball player before he leaves P. C. He held down the catcher position on the Freshman team last year which tied with Clemson for the state championship. He never failed to hang on to Chester Martin ' s ' ' hot ones last year and he also gave the opposing pitchers trouble when he was at bat. One H a , a! 1 1 ii Forty-Four «III «JIIIII«-II 1I1 P. KNIGHT, Pitcher A year ago, Knight decided that Newberry had won enough games from the Blue Stockings, so opened up a new era with a 5 to win over the Indians. Knight pitched another beautiful game here this spring, winning from the hard hitting State Univer- sity. Experience in New York during the past summer has made him a seasoned vet- eran. As a right-hander he is a powerful asset to the team, and is never so good as he is in a pinch and then he cuts loose with the real stuff. L. L. DUNLAP, Left Field A fast baserunner often decides a close contest, and Pete can circle the bases about as fast as anyone in the state. A hard and consistent hitter, he helps to swell the batting average of the team, and can be counted on to deliver hits when needed. A Sophomore, he has a brilliant future. J. C. BELL, Third Base It is always well to have a real ball player on third base, and Bell fulfills every re- quirenment. He is one of the steadiest fielders in the college game, has a good peg, and is besides, a power at the bat. In an early season game with the Charlotte Road Club, he broke up an extended tie game in the eleventh with a home run. Bell is a veteran of hard battles in past history, and has another year with P. C. One Hundred Forty-Five x xx x yxyT2x.x-xx .xxx xa xx:r jt x x.x i x_x x L. E. McLAURIN, Le f Fi ' e rf Roy has been a faithful performer on the diamond since his Sophomore year, and is one of the best fielders in the outer garden. In the first Carolina game, he bounced a double off Stoddard ' s delivery at a crucial moment, and found himself one of the heroes of the great battle. McLaurin is known to give his best efforts to his team and college, and has well deserved the title of loyalty conferred upon him. C. F. WILLIAMS, Center Field The University of South Carolina invaded Clinton early this spring and expected to win from the Blue Stockings. Two men contributed enough stuff to give P. C. an X to 4 win. Knight was tightening down in great style on the mound, while Williams smothered everything that looked like an excursion to the outfield, catching four long flies. Cy also socked the ball three times out of four up, one going for three bases. A fast, hard-fighting player, Williams looms as one of the State ' s most able fielders. D. S. MATHESON, Outfield This sturdy descendant of those wha hae wi ' Wallace bled strikes a blow with the club that recalls the blows his great ancestors struck in defense of Scottish liberty. Christy made the team last year on his hitting ability, and is counted on to bolster the strength of the nine during the present season and next year ' s.

Wertz fills this bill exactly, he can pivot about that little pile of rags and keeps his error column down to a practically negligible amount. Wertz ha filled this position for two years and will return next fall and promises to be even better than ever in a baseball uniform. He hits with regularity and can we depend upon in the pinches. CHARLES WOODROW WILSON Shortstop Goldie and his cries of ' ' Duck Soup coupled with his uncanny ability to handle ' em all gains for him many admirers wherever P. C. teams meet in competition. And when he walks up to the plate with a willow in his hand a crash will be heard and therev will be chasing and chasing among the outfielders, usually it goes over the right field bank when on the home field. He will return next fall and after a round on the gridiron and the basketball floor he will be ready to carry on in his league style even as he has done in days gone by. GILBERT RODMAN PORTER, Outfield The most consistent of all consistents; that is the phrase that might be applied to the major. He has never been a brilliant light but a constant gleaming bright one. It is the stick-to-it-ness that he possesses that makes men succeed in the sport world and in he world at large. We are indeed proud that such a man has been pegging it out, for four years and from his example we are ab le to learn a lesson that a man is a man for a ' that. He does not return next year, much to our regret. One Hundred Forty-Seven X ,1 , 1: x xx xxx ; X I X X I IITZ The Season in Progress With the baseball season largely in the future as we go to press, it would not possibly be profitable to predict the outcome of the season of 1927, but at the date of writing the prospects are bright indeed. Only once so far has the team tasted of defeat in its several starts, bowing to the Citadel nine in an agonizing game by a ' A to 2 score after the Blue Stockings had jumped on the Cadets at Clinton, and humbled them decisively by 9 to 0. For the first time in several years, P. C. has two reliable pitchers in Knight and Martin, and they are working in fine form. Martin opened the inter-col- legiate season with a splendid one-hit exhibition against the Charleston Cadets of the Citadel, and P. C. enjoyed a 9 to feast to open the year. A day later, Palmer Knight, who had been the hero of the shut-out against Newberry the year previous, turned back the University of South Carolina by 8 to 4. in which he received sensational support from a flashing infield and from Williams, the Blue Stockings ' outstanding performer in the outfield. Williams garnered three hits during the afternoon one of them going for three bases, and pulled down four flies that were labeled for trouble deep in centerfield, Knight was a bit off in the opening frame, when Carolina pounded him heavily, and was assisted by errors to make three runs, adding another run in the second inning. Knight clamped down after (his unsteadyness, and Carolina did not score thereafter. The invasion of the Coast was also successful. Martin, pitching against Charleston College, pitched his second one-hit game of the year, and the Char- lestonians went down by 8 to 0. Martin was showing a bewildered South Car- olina public that he was the best left-hander in the state race, and could be banked upon to deliver the goods against all comers. The game with Citadel was a disappointment as the Cadets scored three runs in a bad inning on errors, and came off with a one-run margin. Knighl hurled good ball in all except that inning, and deserved to win. P. C. couldn ' t hit at opportune times, although they came often enough, left runners on bases in nearly every frame, and allowed several to die on double killings. Wretched base running coupled with errors robbed Knight of a deserved win. At Columbia, on the way back to the old Campus, the defeated Blue Hose pounced on the University lads, and again showed that they looked like state champions. .Martin held the State players to five hits, despite a dislocated fin- ger and only errors robbed him of a third straight shut-out. Williams con- tributed the long hit of the afternoon, a home run, and Captain Twinkle •(ones banged out a t ripple. Thus far P. C. looks like the class of Southh Carolina collegiate baseball. A team composed mostly of veterans, behind splendid pitching, looks capable of wonders. And good pitching, .Martin and Knight are certainly giving the lilue Stockings. One Hundred Forty-Eight xx xsx zxyx: CXXX I I JL- Wertz at first, is one of the best Lnfielders in the state, and Owens has dem- onstrated his worth at second. Wilson and Bell, the other men in the infield, are reliable veterans of last season and an asset to any team, both hrdefense and offense. Bell crashed out a home run in the eleventh inning of a pre- season encounter with the Charlotte Road Club to win for the Blue Stockings. Captain Jones, behind the plate, is a well-known star of two glorious seasons. In the outfield there is also plenty of strength, including reserve power. Williams at center is the outstanding performer, and is closely followed by Jimmie Stamps in right field. The other fielders are Matheson, McLaurin, Dunlap, Porter, and Bankhead. all of whom are showing up as reliable defend- ers. Hitting needs to be developed but is more satisfactory than a season ago. Games on the schedule include competition against Furman. Clemson. Erskine. which is setting the state afire with its victories under the guid inee of her old alumnus, Phillips, Wofford, and several out-of-state teams. Never in many years has P. C. opened the season so auspiciously, nor pre- se nted such a strong aggregation of ball players. Coach Johnson has every reason to expect a successful conclusion to a year so splendidly opened. The remaining games are as follows: April 15th Clemson ;it Laurens April 18th Wofford at Spartanburg April 21st Furman at Clinton April 2:2nd . . .Wilkes Barre (Pennsylvania League) at Union April 25th Erskine at Chester April 29th Furman at (ireenville May 2nd Newberry at Newberry .May 3rd Wofford at Clinton May 6th Newberry at Clinton May 10th Erskine at Clinton One Hundred Forty-Nine l l-J i f - t-x m. yxiyyn nij r r z x.-z. l f Y T x x aV T x I JL x ' 31 r ' xV e Clarence Edward Galloway Class of ' 19 Presbyterian College has her distinguished alum- ni in almost every field, including the field of sports.

A. TIMMONS, Captain High Jump; High Hurdle Captain Timmons began to attract attention many years ago as a student in the local high school and has been a consistent winner as a Blue Stocking performer. He is one of the best high jumpers in the State, and one of the leading hurdlers in the southland. Shirley, you ' ve scored many a point for P. C, and we know you ' ll get a good many more for your teammates and your Alma Mater. A. W. GRAFTON Eight-Eighty; Pole Vault Born and bred in the hills of North China, Flung began his track career against the black-eyed Orientals. In 1924, he came to P. C, and made the Freshman track team, winning his event in the Furman meet. Since that time, he has been the Blue Stockings ' greatest half-miler, and is a threat in every meet. At Carolina, he took first place two years ' running. And with another year yet, he looks as threatening as a thundercloud. R. A. HOGREFE One Hundred; Two Twenty; Broad Jump Here is one of the world ' s greatest broad jumpers. In the season ' s opening meet, he cleared 23 feet ll 1 , inches, a foot and a half better than the Southern Conference record. In the 100 and 220, he goes like a cannon-ball, being the peer of South Caro- lina sprinters. Roy is one of the cleanest sportsmen in any branch of athletics. Never boasts, never complains, always fights. P. C. is proud of Roy as the finest track ath- lete she has ever had. One Hundred Fifty-Three FRANK PEARCE Low Hurdles Pearce is the best low hurdler that has yet donned a P. C. uniform, though the unluckiest In the meet against the State University, he had an easy lead till well past the last hurdle, when his spikes caught in the hard track and threw him. He is a runner of great determination, speed, and endurance, is improving in every attempt, and bids fair to set the pace for the late-season meets. L. H. GRIFFTH Shotput Only once has Griffith been beaten in the shotput in his college and career, and in that one defeat, he showed that he was greater than in all his triumphs. He arose from a hospital bed a year ago to compete against Furnian, and took second place des- pite his weakened condition. This ace from Arkansas is greatest when he is in the hole and he meets all comers. A state and S. I. A. A. champion, he has given his best for P. C. and merits her praise. A. S. LYNN Half-Mile A Sophomore, Lynn has already shown that he can be relied upon to do good work. and in his event, the half, he is one of the best in the State. Last year, he worked in all the Freshman meets, and was able to go through the season without meeting defeat. Few Sophomores make his time, and he gives great promise of future development. One Hundred Fifty-Four i iiii itjiixrijjiTi i ii W. H. MOFFATT Four-Forty ; Broad Jump Moffatt has been a consistent point gainer throughout his track career, and nevar a meet passes in which he does not score a few points wearing the P of Presbyterian. He has plenty of speed, and makes a good run on the quarter. At Tech, he startled spec- tators by his fast work on the two-twenty. Moffatt finishes this Spring, leaving behind a record of achievement on the cinder path which one might envy. A. F. FEWELL Pole Vault Tut nearly met disaster in the Carolina meet when his pole broke, launching him headlong into the sawdust, but it didn ' t seem to worry him. Neither does fast competition. Fewell was one of the best men on last year ' s state championship squad, and is continuing the old tradition in varsity circles. E. R. BLAKE Two-Mile This is Blake ' s second year on the Blue Stocking two-mile team. He has a nice stride, and with added endurance would make a good two-miler. A bad knee has both- ered him through the early part of the present campaign. Blake is heavy enough to be a weight man, and one wonders how he can carry himself around the track. He is also putting the shot, and may take Griffith ' s place in this event next Spring. One Hundred Fifty-Five X .T xx xx xxxxxx xxxxxk xx XXX x.xxx x : i x xxx x xxxx x xxx xxx r xin x xxx5£x ' x i: F. O. STEVENS Four-Forty Stevens is one who has been often tried and proven, and in every race he can be counted on to do his best. He ran a fast quarter in high school and has improved his time in college competition. One of the familiar sights on the Blue Stocking ti ' ack is his short, fast strides, as he rounds the last curve and flashes for the finish. Neil is also a pretty fair miler, and a main stay on the relay. A. F. MARSHALL Four-Forty; Lou- Hurdles Arnold broke the P. C. record in the quarter-mile event in his first run this Spring. At Tech, he ran two beautiful quarters against fast competition. He has speed, en- durance, and above all, plenty of fight. He is also a low hurdler of ability, and a fail- hundred yard dash man. Though only a Sophomore, he is a valued performer, and will bring many more points in future competition. J. D. WHITESIDE Two-Mile Whiteside brought tears to the eyes of opponents when he came up from behind in one of the most memorable finishes ever staged on the Clinton track, to snatch first place from the fast harriers of the State University. With only one arm, he is able to win over men with two. With his determination, courage and pluck, he has made himself the idol of Presbvterian fans. One Hundred Fifty-StX W. E. ROBINSON Hiyli Jump For four years, Robbie has jumped for P. C, and four years of excellent service have been rendered. This Spring, he started out, jumping better than ever before. He is a hard worker, trains faithfully, and gets results in meets. A first-class athlete that would be an asset to any team. J. K. ROBERTS One Mile Roberts looms up this year as the State ' s first miler, and he holds the P. C. record at four, forty-eight. Undoubedly, next to Carter Newman, he can put on the best finish of any Palmetto runner. Jack has yet to be beat in dual meet competition, and he is regarded as one of the best in the Southern Association. Another Junior, looking forward to another year of hard running. C. W. WILSON Javelin; Discus; Broad Jump Charlie won the S. I. A. A. javelin throw in his Sophomore year, and expects to do it again this Spring. He is also a good man with the discus, and would be considered a phenominal broad-jumper if not shaded by his teammate, the great Hogrefe. Charlie won the pentathelon, proving himself last year the best all-round man on the team. One Hundred Fifty-Seven TheS eason in Progress The spring of 1927 found many old track and field veterans back on the jiih determined to win the state championship for Coach Lonnie McMillan. For the first time, P. C. had a dependable neucleus of stars that could be count- ed on to place consistently in every meet. Genuine talent demonstrated itself in the try-outs, and when the team met the University of South Carolina in the opening: meet of the year it found little difficulty in winning by S8 to 43. In the sprints. Coach McMillan uncovered one of the greatest of P. C. ' s all-time athletes in Hogrefe. Working; against the University, Roy clocked himself to the magnificent record of 23 feet 11 4 inches in the running broad jump. Thomas, the University middle distance man, won the cpiarter, but three P. C. runners, led by Flung Grafton, won the half on a wind-swept track. Roberts cut loose on a last lap sprint to take the mile, and, Whiteside gave the spectators a real thrill when he nosed out the State runners in the two-mile race in a roaring finish. In the hurdles, the Presbyterians showed that they had men who could stack up with the best. Timmons dashed over the sticks in the high hurdle race to set a new Presbyterian record of 16.5 seconds, while Marshall and Pearce were showing superiority over opposition in the low hurdles. In the field events, the Blue Stockings were also powerful, Robinson ty- ing for first place in the high jump, while Griffith succeeding in annexing ' the shotput. Carolina won the discus throw, but Hogrefe and Wilson took the broad jump, and Wilson and Marshall won handily in the javelin. The second week of the season saw the Blue Stockings entrained for At- lanta to participate i n the Tech relays. The cream of Southern track and field talent was there, yet Hogrefe took second place and a handsome medal in his running broad jump. The sprint medley team, Marshall, Hogrefe. Moffatt and Stevens placed fourth in one of the heats. The distance team also ran well, but did not place, Grafton, Moffatt, Marshall, and Roberts doing the running. On April 17 Wofford invaded the Blue Stocking track, only to be turned back ! !i to L ' 7. The Blue Stockings opened the meet with a beautiful hundred yard dash, Hogrefe breaking the tape in 10 1-5 seconds, closely followed by .Marshall. A galaxy of points showered down on the Hose as event followed event. One Hundred Fifty-Eight £ Roberts led the milers to the finish in 4:52.5, and was followed by Gilmer, who took second place. Pearce dashed to a brilliant record of 27.5 seconds for the low hurdles, with Marshall second, but Timmons glided over the higher sticks without making any attempt at good time. The quarter was the thrill of the day. Hutchinson, the Terrier captain and great middle distance runner, who had downed the Blue Stockings in two suc- cessive seasons was entered. Against him, McMillan sent in Moffatt and Ho- grefe. At the crack of the gun, Hogrefe took the lead with Moffatt pulling up into second place around the first curve. On the back stretch Hogrefe opened up with a beautiful spurt, followed by Moffatt, who in turn led Hutchinson. At the curve, Moffatt pulled up on Hogrefe, while Hutchinson came through with one of his famed finishes, but Hogrefe maintained his lead to the finish, with Moffatt at his elbow, the great Hutchinson finishing third. The time, 52.5 seconds, was a new P. ( ' . record. Whiteside was another star in the afternoon ' s campaign, the one arm lad winning the two-mile race in a finish that was almost phenominal, the time. 10 minutes, 48.2 seconds representing a new Blue Stocking mark. Hutchinson took the half with Grafton and Lynn, both of P. C, in a tie for second. In the field, Fewell won the pole vault at 10 feet 3 inches with Grafton second after Wofford had dropped out at lower height, and Robinson and Timmons won both places in the high jump. Griffith took the shotput. and Wilson the discus throw. In the javelin, Wilson shattered all former records when he hurled the shaft 183 feet 2 1-2 inches for a mark that was better than the, winning throw at the Tech relays. This was eight feet better than the winning flight from Wilson ' s javelin which took the S. I. A. A. event here last Spring. The coming meets are with Furman, on April 23; Emory, in Atlanta, on April 25 ; the State meet at Clinton on May 7 ; and the S. I. A. A. meet in Bir- mingham, on May 14. P. C. has a well-rounded team in all departments, including several stars of unusual brilliance. Hogrefe, Marshall, and Moffatt are great short-distance men, and Grafton, Lynn and Whiteside are strong in the distance runs. Pearce in the low and Captain Timmons in the high hurdles are hard to beat. In the field events P. C. is also well represented, with Robinson and Tim- mons in the high jump, Grafton and Fewell in the pole vault, Griffith in the shotput, Hogrefe and Wilson in the broad jump, and Wilson in both the discus and javelin.

Tennis Singles: Haffner, Captain; Stuckey Doubles: Elliott, Haffner PROSPECTUS The PaC-SaC goes to press before our netmen have engaged in any tournaments and have therefore had the opportunity to display their wares for this season. Haff- ner is a veteran and an able player. If he shows as much improvement this year as he has continued to show each year, we will say in advance that he will shine on the court for his Aimer Mater. Elliott and Stuckey are new men on the team but are ex- cellent players. In practice they have shown marked ability, and have thus proved to us that they are going to bel strong bets for P. C. in all of the tournaments in which they participate. We are proud of this team and know that they are going to fight for Presbyterian College with a strong determination to bring the tennis laurels of the state back to the Ole Campus.

X X X.J.X Sportsmanship Code A Good Sportsman Is Courteous On The Field he does not jeer at errors; he does not cheer at the oppo- nents ' penalty; he treats them as guests, not enemies. In The School he is considerate of the faculty, of the fellow students, and of visitors. In Life he is respectful of elders and superiors; he treats the other fellow as he would be treated. Is Modest On The Field he works for the good of the team rather than for indi- vidual honor; he will even sacrifice his own prestige for his team; he is a gracious winner. In School he does not become conceited over his success, neither does he feel himself superior to his classmates. In Life he does not blow about what he is going to do; lie does not, boast about what he has done. Is Generous On The Field he applauds a good play of his opponents; he gives die other fellow the benefit of the doubt. In School he does not knock other schools or individuals; he appreciates another ' s merit. In Life he does not ridicule the man who is down but encourages him. He is not afraid to think for himself and to voice his opinions straight- forwardly and clearly. Is Courageous On The Field he plays hard; he fights, though he may be already de- feated; he accepts adverse decisions; he is a good loser. School he does his work; he keeps on working in the face of almost certain failure. He has the vim to think straight and the pluck to act straight. In Life he does his part, however hard it may be; he accepts reverses with a smile and tries again. —Caveat Emptor. One Hundred Sixty-Two Southland beauty Miss Mary Grace McLendon of Bennettsville.

Coe The quality-point system of marking at Presbyterian College was established for two main purposes: First, to reward the student who does superior work; and second, to stimulate the student whose work is inferior. The scholastic marks are based on five groups that it is possible to divide a class into. Those whose average is between 90 and 100 are given A; those between 80 and 90 are given B; those between 70 and 80 are given C; those between 60 and 70 are given D; and those below 60 are given E. These are called academic marks. Besides this, each of them is worth a certain number of quality points for every semester hour ' s credit (number of times the class meets a week during the semester) that the student earns. For example, if a student takes Freshman French for one semester, he will meet the class three times a week, and his academic and his quality credit may vary as fol- lows: If his mark for the semester is A, he is given three semester hours of academic credit and nine quality points; if his mark is B, he is given three semester hours of academic credit and six quality points; if his mark is C, he is given three semester hours of academic credit and three quality points; if his mark is D, he is given only two semester hours of academic credit and no quality points; and if his mark is E, he is given no academic credit and no quality points. The Faculty has ruled that, in order for a student to graduate, he must earn as many quality points as semester hours required to graduate. At present, one hundred and thirty-four hours are required, one must also earn one hundred and thirty-four quality points. By looking at the above scheme, it can be seen that if one made a mark of C in every subject he would have exactly the required number of academic hours and the quality points to graduate; but if he received all C ' s but one, and that one D, his record would show a shortage of three quality points and one semester hour of academic credit. If, on the other hand, one semester mark were B, one D, and the others were C ' s, he would have exactly enough quality points to graduate; but, since one semester hour of academic credit is deducted for every D, he would still lack one semester hour of academic credit. This hour of credit must be earned in some subject — not necessarily in that in which it is deducted — in order to graduate. From this it can be seen that for every D one must receive, somewhere in his course, a B, in order to earn sufficient quality points, unless he takes part in some form of extra-curricular activity, such as debating, for which he may receive as many as three quality points, but no academic credit, during any session. The academic hour of credit must be made by class work which is passed. For students who do superior work, the incentives are as follows: Those who earn ninety quality points or more during any session are named honor students for the year; students who earn three hundred and sixty quality points during their college careers, in addition to the required academic hours, are graduated with high honors; those who earn three hundred are graduated with honors. In this manner every stu- dent who maintains a high standard of scholarship is rewarded. The main features of the system are that it eliminates all re-examinations — a student who makes an average of 60 or more passes the course — and it permits the student to do a minimum amount of work where he is short and a maximum amount where he is„ ' ' long . In addition to this, the general requirements of the college prevent him from scattering his courses too much.

Honorary Fraternities on the Campus Every normal college student has some special interest. Like Uncle Toby in Tristram Shandy , he daily mounts his hobby horse and rides out to sun himself in those pastures where the hobby horse most delights to browse. The honorary fraternity is the medium in college life by which the student ' s as- pirations and interests are brought to happy fruition. Likewise, they also fur- nish the incentive for honest endeavor. Presbyterian College is fortunate in having on her campus honorary fra- ternities that give opportunity for men to develop themselves along many and varied lines. A slight sketch of the history of these organizations is the subject of the author, offered for the reader ' s attention to the following paragraphs. The oldest honorary on the campus is the Pi Kappa Delta forensic frater- nity. In years during which it has been on the campus, the best debaters and orators of the institution have been named on its rolls. Among its members have been such distinguished men as Frank Clarke, the intercollegiate orator who won the intercollegiate title for South Carolina in 1923. Other men have also glorified the name of the brilliant chapter of this organization. The coming of the International Relations Club in 1924 marked a growing interest in the affairs of the world. Following the establishment of the local chapter of this organization, came in (puck succession the Chi Beta Phi Scien- tific fraternity, and the Lambda Phi Gamma Musical fraternity. Both of these were comparatively young organizations in their national youth. In 1925 was organized the Sigma Kappa Alpha class orders, with the hope that they might some day be supplanted by a chapter of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Membership in the three class orders is considered one of the highest scholastic honors on the campus. In the fall of 1925, there was organized the [sis Literary Club, which, in a few months was granted a charter from the Sigma Upsilon national literary Fraternity. This is the largest national id ' its kind, and the men in the Isis club considered themselves favored by fortune in the acquisition of the charter. At the same time. Gamma Sigma, the journalistic local, was born, and included in its membership the leading Journalists id ' the student body. Most of these organizations are still young on the campus, but they have attracted wide attention and interest, and students strive for membership in them. Nearly all have pure merit along the particular line as the basis for election to membership. Two Hundred Thirty Two Hundred Thirty-One LirtTliiiSt tixTrTxfxiiti ' t fxii irxxxx iiijuriiiii Military Training S. A. T. C. R. 0. T. C. By First Lieutenant D. R. Nimocks Cups Won by the Unit of P. C. Military Training was begun at the Presbyterian College of South Carolina in September, 1918. The college at the request of the govrenment agreed to suspend its regular curriculum and to allow the government to use its plant and teaching force to train men to qualify as second lieutenants of infantry in the emergency army. A special course of instruction, furnished by the government was substituted for the regular course. It consisted of studies in mathematics (particularly surveying), French, War Aims, Sanitation, Hygiene, English and War History. The members of the cadet corps, by a special ruling of the faculty, received full credit for their work on their degree and in addition thereto were housed, fed, and were paid at the rate of one dollar per day. The change and reorganization noted above was under the guidance of Second Lieutenant Ray L. McFarland, Infantry, who assumed the duties of Commandant of Cadets in September, 1918. In October, 1918, Second Lieutenant Zachery B. Bradford, Infantry, and Second Lieutenant Reginald M. Jocylen, reported for duty as assistants to Lieutenant McFarland. They remained on duty at this institution until they were discharged from the army on December 19th, 1918. The S. A. T. C. units were withdrawn from all colleges in the Spring of 1919. Lieutenant McFarland was relieved from duty here and discharged on February 25th, 1919. During the Spring of 1919, application was made by the college authorities for a unit of the Reserve Officer ' s Training Corps. After the passage of a special act this application was granted and Major Frederick J. DeRohan, Infantry (DOL), was as- signed as Professor of Military Science and Tactics. Major DeRohan remained as the only officer present until he was relieved by Colonel Edward L. Glasgow, U. S. A. Ret ' d., in November, 1920. Sergeant Thomas M. Brundage (DEML) was on duty as an assistant to Colonel Glasgow from November, 1920 until May, 1922. At this time the United States was going through a natural reaction against mili- itary training and it was only through the earnest effort of Colonel Glasgow and the college authorities that the necessary enrollment of one hundred was obtained, thereby removing the possibility of the unit being discontinued by the government. Two Hundred Thirty-Two nrjiTi xyixizi x,x x x 3 xxx x x Tii iiiTiiiTr rxatrti x xx xx rxi x From the arrival of Colonel Glasgow, interest in the R. 0. T. C. increased by leaps and bounds as the following enrollment figures show. At the beginning of the scholastic year 1920-21 there was an enrollment of 100; in 1921-22, 138; in 1922-23, 150; in 1923- 24, 180; in 1924-25, 200; in 1925-26, 215 and in 1926-27, 230. It is interesting to note that the percentage of all physically fit and qualified students taking the R. O. T. C. in 1920-21 was 64 percent, whereas in 1926-27 the percentage is approximately 95. In January, 1925, Major Chauncey S. McNeill, U. S. A. Ret ' d., reported for duty as Assistant Professor of Military Science and Tactics and in March, 1923, First Lieu- tenant David R. Nimocks, Infantry (DOLI, also reported for duty as an assistant pro- fessor. Major McNeill was relieved from duty here and ordered to Fishburn Military Academy at the end of the scholastic year 1922-23. In October, 1923, Sergeant Frank M. Hippert, (DEML), reported foi duty and was an assist ant in military science and tactics until he was relieved in October 1926, by Sergeant Foster B Parham, (DEML). The military staff at present is composed of Colonel Edward L. Glasgow, U. S. A. Ret ' d., as Professor of Military Science and Tactics; First Lieutenant David R. Nimocks, Infantry (DOL), as Assistant Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and Sergeant Foster B. Parham, (DEML), as an assistant in Military Science. In 1926 the government issued the college sufficient musical instruments and other equipment to organize a military band of twenty-eight pieces. This band was organized under the supervision of the Military Department and trained by a musical director furnished by the college. This R. O. T. C. unit has made a record at the camps, held annually, during the summer, of which she is justly proud and which she feels is second to ' no college or university in this corps area. Since the summer of 1921, this unit has been awarded first place twice, second place once, third place once and last summer tied with Louis- ana State University for fourth place. It has won the following cups, three of which are permanent and two temporary: Permanent Cups— General Excellency Cup, 1921; National Defense Test Day Cup, 1925; Second Place Cup for Team Marksmanship, 1925. Temporary Cups — Fourth Corps Area General Excellency Cup, 1921- Fourth Corps Area General Excellency Cup, 1925. The present Junior Class, which has the largest enrollment in the history of the unit will go to camp during the coming summer and it is hoped and believed that thev will even improve the records made by their predecessors. They will carry a good baseball team, a good boxing team, a good swimming team and thirty-six men deter- mined to bring home with them the 4th Corps Area General Excellency Cup for the Third time. Since its installation there have graduated from the R. O. T. C. about one hundred and twenty-two men who have been commissioned as second lieutenants of infantry in the Organized Reserve Corps. A large proportion of these have continued their in- terest m military training and many have been promoted.

Two Hundred Forty-Three xzx.xx; [I ZJ Spe nee A ssumes Off; ice Friends, Gentlemen: It gives me great pleasure to come before you this morning as Acting-President of the Presbyterian College of South Carolina. I shall take this opportunity to say a few words in regard to the work for the remainder of the year. I fully realize the vast responsibilities that shall fall upon me in connection with this high office and the du- ties; Duty — A lovely word which personified drives dull care away and brings gladness into dark and saddened lives. Your form so Etherial in Constitution, so ambrosial in delectation, so exquisite in delineation, haunts the very portals of my indulgence. Kluck- Kluck — . Now I notice several representatives from the staffs of the various newspapers of the state down in the audience. If by chance you have failed to get any of the above, please see me immediately after chapel. I have three extra copies, and it will be my theme in glory to place one in the hands of each of you. There have been quite a few complaints brought to my attention recently in re- gard to Professor Gig ' s teaching and also about the method in which the laundry problem is handled at this institution. These questions are entirely too shady to be discussed from the rostrum. If any of you boys desire to take a trip for the week-end and haven ' t sufficient funds, see Hawk Hunter. He is in the office at all times for that purpose. Get highly indignant if he refuses. He has tried to pull that old gag on me. On the other hand, should you have any desire to study, kill the thing in its fancy. Such wanton desires shall never be fostered — suckeled at the breast of this institution of learning where men are made . All men wishing to motor to Dover this afternoon to attend the Unedo Carnival please see B. Graham as he has several seats left in his Cleveland — Just a minute Mr. Spratt, I have a few more words I wish to say. I shall ask all strong men to remain in Mess Hall after lunch. Now Mr. Brock, I speak not to you. I am speaking to physically strong men, as we wish to move Alumni Hall back 343 feet to allow more parking space for automobiles and Clevelands. Now if there are any men flunking on their work, they should report to me at once. It might be that I can make professors of them. We need a new Economics and Sociology professor as Jim Boyd Kennedy is about worn out and is also considering marriage. Now men we must get some more P. C. spirit. Mr. Gregg is out at present but is expecting a case in a few days from Columbia. I will let you know on arrival. If at any time you become hungry, lonesome, or athletic, ring the bell three times and Sturgeon will come to your recovery. If you get thirsty, smoke a Chesterfield — they satisfy. Now knaves in regard to dancing — there are three new steps in Buzzard Lope, Turkey Trot, and Bunny Hug. Miss Comfort reports the loss of two books from the library: Her Boy Friend and Love Lifted . If anyone should find them please take them to Dr. Keller and he will turn them over to the bus driver. Now boys it is necessary to have more smoking and less studying around here. Men whose heads are polluted or whose hair is falling out see Bug Hoy — he is a Princeton man. Letters will not be given in hockey this year unless a man preambulates in three track meets. Track Meat at the Mess Hall does not count; it is out of season. Lettuce and cucumbers will be served on Emancipation Proclamation Day — May 10th immediately after the picture show has served its banquet. Two Hundred Forty-Four ruin : cxxxxx -j z Hooray! Liberty ! On the morning of March 29th the sun suffered a total eclipse in Clinton, caused by the shining lights of some members of the student body while exposing a great streak of ignorance. The occasion was a student body meeting where the intelligentsia had gathered to con- sider the matter of adding additional mend- ings to the Honor System, in which there is perfect harmony between the students and faculty. There were many amendments offered. The phrase that the P. C. student should conduct himself as a gentleman while on the campus was amended to read that he should conduct himself as a gentleman while on a spree.

The students wondered why one should wish ginger ale without its life long companion — incidentally here is a good one. learned it in a bar in London, one-half scotch, one-fourth honey, one-fourth grape-fruit juice and cracked ice or what have you. Mclnnis arose to defend the ones who are in the habit of gurgling down a pint and a half while running down stairs of Spencer in order to get to Laurens in time for a Hacerla date. His hair was torn to shreds, his eves were bulging and all his body was throbbing so intent was his interest. Jackson was touched with this and with tears in his eyes and heart felt sympathy rose and plead with Mac to abandon his life af debauchery- till the end of school in order that the amend- ment might pass. It could not so long as so great a philosopher had risen against it.

Frat comes from a Greek word meaning — How much can you drink? These Frat men are often called other things but they will not look well in print. Their chief aim is to get money from fathers. Almost all great men are fraternity men, such as: Bill Riyers. L. E. Owens. Professor Gignilliat and B. Graham.

Two Hundred Eighty-Three ;i, IIIXI iy ii y- i: iiriifi xi:i A RETROSPECT Our work on the PaC-SaC of 1927 has terminated, and we sincerely hope you are pleased with our efforts. It has been our aim to give you an annual truly representative of the greater and growing Presbyterian College of today. As the work of the 1927 PaC-SaC has progressed, we have received some commen- datory remarks for which we are very appreciative; also it has been clearly evinced to us that it is almost humanly impossible to please everyone in that we have received some adverse criti- cism from a few. However, the latter was rather expected. With it all, it has been a genuine pleasure for us to have served you. The editor personally wishes to thank the PaC-SaC staff for the hearty cooperation given him at all times. He also wishes to express his appreciation to the following firms for the splendid service rendered by them on the 1927 PaC-SaC: Jacobs Co., of Clinton, S. C, Printers and Engravers. Brubackers Studio, of Atlanta, Ga., Photographers. S. K. Smith Co., of Chicago, 111., Cover Manufacturers.
