Phelps and our faculty, the Senior Class of '28 has en- deavored to uphold the standards of our school-spiritually, mentally, and physically. ln our experience we have been confronted with many diffrculties. Although we have failed in some, often we have succeeded, with the aid of our respected faculty. To the future classes we hope that they also may uphold the standards of our Alma Mater. As the time for our efforts here has passed we trust that you, future classes, may excel where we have faltered. 2 ii illl iiwiiiii IH W i if l x '6- N ff -Z-, ,tr jj: i - E ,.

U i Lt n y W fr l -6 1411 M It Ill Ill I K ALBRE llliltl? 1- 9' I Class History N September, l92-4, there came into the lives of some young men the thrills that must have been felt by Columbus as he set sail into unk-nown dangers and hardships in seeking wealth and fame in a new world. However, the object of these young men was not line gold and rich spices but something more to be desired than these-an education. As these men reached our school and began looking ahead, how long and far distant did the end of those four years seem! These men were we, the Class of '28. As we struggled through that first year our famous record was begun by King and Moody, who made the football team. The following year, '25-'26, as the work became harder, we worked more. We had made up our minds to succeed. We picked as our leaders, King, Presidentg Noland, Vice President, and Carter, Secretary-Treasurer. Vife were also joined by a number of' new men who were very useful. This year our activities became greater, socially as well as in studies and athleticsg Moody represented us in football. Graham in baseball and Abramson in track. With the beginning of the ,26-'27 session our class was again joined by a number of rats.', Of those who returned We elected as our oflicers the follow- ing: Noland, Presidentg Parry, Vice Presidentg and Hartig, l..., Secretary- Treasurer. During the year many of the Juniors were candidates for the varsity teams. Of these, Wilson, J., and Phlegar received their monograms in footballg Downs and Kirby in basket ballg Snead and Abramson in track, the latter being Captain, and Kidwell and Smith in baseball. Many of our members held outstanding positions in military and social activities. To our splendid graduating class of this year we have added, besides a good many new men, several post graduates. We have chosen this year for our officers: Ross, Ci., President, Phlegar, Vice President, l-lobbs, Secretary- Treasurer. THE SABRE is edited mainly by Seniors, l-lenry White having been chosen Editor-in-Chief and George Ross, Assistant Editor, while many others hold positions as Associate Editors. Various members have won high rating in Military: Ross, G., was pro- moted to Captain and Adjutant, Allan, Captain, Company Ag Phlegar, Captain, Company B, Schweizer, First Lieutenant Quartermasterg Ryan, Lieutenant Buglerg Hobbs and l-looks, Lieutenants in Company A, and Snead and Dawson, Lieutenants in Company B. Many received non-commissions. Monograms were awarded this year-Football: Phlegar, captain, White, Ross, Ci., Ross, J., Kidwell, Collister. Basket Ball: Ross, G., and Dawson, both captains. Snead is captain-elect for track and Kidwell for baseball. Our history is small, our future great. We leave to the Senior Class of next year the responsibility of upholding our hue record and extend to every member of our class best wishes for the future. -A. E.

N September, l925, there were some very green rats, 'strangers among strangers, to be seen wending their weary way up to 'theischoolbuilding at R.-M. A., marveling, with heavy hearts, at the mysterious smiles'-of the old men. 1 rl I-lesitant in the new atmosphere and unacquainted with preparatory school life, we managed, before long, to find our place. We put Moody into the Monogram Club by way of the football team and various others' on the squads of basket ball and track. We made Moody our President for the year, with Walker as Vice President, Kolipinski as Secretary, and Rodgers as Treasurer. I The next year, as Sophornores, we began to come up the Military Department, with several of our members shining as corporals. I .Kolipinski, whom we made President for the session, was the best miler in schoolgthough none of the rest of us won letters. Andrews was elected, Vice President of the Class and Deal, Secretary. t 'U A 1 This year, as Juniors, we have turned out to break records. Andrews is our Presidentg Duncan, our Vice President, and Warren, our Secretary. Lewis and Wengler macle letters for us in both football and' basket rball, and we count on other honors to come with track and baseball. On TI-IE SABRE staff we are well represented by Ewell, Business Manager, and Carstarphen, Dixon and Emmons, Associate Editors. P ' Cnc more year in which to make good--or to make good better. We count for next year on more work, more honors anclmore service-more of thosethings that will make us proud to have lived and labored in the halls of old Randolph-Macon Academy. I ' -ARTHUR V.

As one strolled casually around on the campus he might easily have seen any one of us doing any one of the things that Freshmen generally do. At the initial roll call the following men answered to their names: Charette, Clark, Cundiff, Farmer, C., Farmer, E., Finney, Frizzelle, Gibson, I-lukill, K., I-lukill, l..., Johnston, Lambeth, Loomis, Lowe, Mann, S. P., Michael, Morgan, Perkin- son, Pettyjohn, Phillips, Quisenberry, the Rodriguez brothers, Sawyer, Taylor, Tripp, Wimbish and Woodrop. Since then we have lost many of our class and gained others. So that, at the first roll call of this session, there were only thirteen who responded to the call, for Sophs. Although in number we are small, in school activities we are very well represented. Carstarphen went out for football, but owing to injuries did not make the Varsity. While we were not represented on the basket ball court, we placed three men-Carstarphen, Raynoriand Carroll-on the swimming team. Also. we expect to have several representatives on the track and baseball squads. As officers for this year we elected Carstarphen, President, Morgan, Vice President, W. Johnston, Jr., Secretary-Treasurer. While we number thirteen, the unlucky numeral, we feel that Lady Luck is smiling on us and that perhaps, in this case, it is lucky. just watch the Class of '30. -F. D. PUTNAM, Class Historian.

A. from various parts of the country to begin our first year of preparatory- school training. At first there were only twenty-five of us, including five day students: Cundiff, Fizer, E., Sutherland, E., Jeter and Whipple, G. After the Christmas holidays, however, a few more fellows ,came in until now we number thirty. We are all rats, with the exception of Farmer, E., Finney, Frizzelle and Tripp. The officers of our Class are: Carrol, J., Presidentg Shepherd, Vice President, and Powell, Secretary-Treasurer. ' A few of our number are distinguished in athletics. Among these: Davis, W., Tripp, and Taylor, D., who were on the swimming team, and Whipple, Ci., who was on the football team. Nelson represented the Class in basket ball. In addition, Johns practiced prize fighting, Cutchin played the saxophone, Kirkland and Lewis, sl., answered the call of the queue, while Carroll, J., Darden and Shepherd followed the call of studies. These, with a few others equally as prominent, make up the Freshman Class of '28. Thus ends the history ofour first year at Randolph-Macon Academy: a year of novel experience and enlightenment, of which the hand of memory will weave blissful dreams far into the future. -DAVID F.

In turn, each t is divided into two platoons. Under the supervision of Commandant Gates R. Richardson and Assistant Commandant M. M.

Every morning, save Sunday, the corps is given fifteen minutes of calisthenics, better known as monkey drill. Z!

All through the year each company works and endeavors FE E to outrank the other in military knowledge and execution. Cn the last day of :gf pl i school a competitive drill is held before United States Army oflicers. l After the battalion is reviewed by the officers, the rating company receives sealed orders and the other company marches out of view from the drill field.

RHI ll! .EL -ag.-. ips SABRE??m 149-2-8 e E all 1 .1-1 an Q Football i WHEN, at the call of Coach Marks, the Randolph-Macon Academy Cadets reported on Day Field for the initial' football practice, there was one letter man of last year tot report-Captain Phlegar. I Asa result, there was a great ditliculty to overcome--that of 'building avnewsteamq r However, the boys set to work earnestly and steadily showed improvement through the, entire season. y i s a I N q On the first day of October our boys met their first -opponent, Forge High School, at Bedford. The High School boys, with, unpleasant memories of last year's defeat ringing in their ears,.came, with- increased determination to get revenge. Both teams fought hard, but when the final whistle blew the score was I8-0 in favor of the opponents, an exact reversal of the score of the preceding year. g o I Our schedule originally called for a game with Lynchburg High School the following week, but since their card was overcrowded, Moneta High School was substituted.

The Blackstone cadets showed us a mighty good team, but they failed to run away with us has was predicted. We were again playing against a heavier team than ours, but we managed to push' over one counter. 5 The final tally read l8-6. I Roanoke High School invaded our camp, bringing quite a large crowd with them. The field was overflowing with Jefferson rooters. The Roanoke team was composed almost entirely oif letter men or second stringersu of the preceding year. In fact, their experienced team ranked high in State circles. Therefore, it was not surprising that they won by four touchdowns. I On the following Saturday the team packed up their kit and journeyed to Fork Union to meet a 39-0 defeat. The Fork Union line outweighed our light defense almost ten pounds to a man, and our boys showed the effects of the hard-fought battle. Our second trip, to I-largrave Military Academy, was not as disastrous as the first. However, we failed to score, while Hargrave pushed over four l82l l -- s gg -as so ,Lael ' s u :QQ Lair- ' ' fmrfai if 5,7 WWL? .V At. 1' L W touchdowns. With memory of the defeat of the preceding year in mind, they seemed to fight with unusual determination' to win. The score at the end of the fourth quarter stood Z6-0. , The last trip of the year took us to thehome of Danville Military Institute, where their cadets administered a fine coat of whitewash to the. tune of 46-0. The Lemon and Black were still stiff and sore from their hard trip and failed to show their customary fight and pep. On the nineteenth of November we met Virginia Episcopal School for the last game of the season. This game showed us that, although our team was not very successful in the number of games won, there was great success measured in the terms of improvement. During the first two quarters Virginia Episcopal School scored two touchdowns and kicked the goal for one extra point. In the last period, however, our boys awoke from the daze which had enveloped them and Kidwell ran the pigskin over the line twice before the Episcopalians knew what it was all about. In each case, however, we failed to kick goal for extra points. Vvhen the final whistle of the game and the season blew we were within four feet of another touchdown and victory! Oh! Irony of fate!

Both the players and Coach Marks are to be complimented on the fine spirit, sportsmanship and work shown during the football season. Since there F was a lack of experienced men and an appalling list of injuries, we were on the p losing end of the score. However, Very much improvement was shomm. The I 4 team which, at the beginning of the season, played as eleven individuals, at the end of the season played as a unit. The brand of ball exhibited by the Lemon and Black in November was totally different from that of October. p We look forward to l928 as a banner football year.

JEFFERSON HIGH at Bedford February -4th in 'F ' Meeting our rivals of the gridiron on the court we started a scoring bee. Wengler, Duncan and Ross pitched many goals, but the Roanoke boys were just a few points ahead at thehalf. The remaining period was slower an-d we fell still further behind.

The first contest, 'with A.'M. At, ended in the uneven score Of'55-23, and our encounter with Staunton resulted in the worst defeat of the '28 season, ,Staunton winning, 83529.

V COACH MARKS ASEBALL season opened with high expectations, as Coach Marks had six letter men around which to build a stellar team. Rat material was unusually good, many having had previous high-school experience. The sphere hurlers were quickly whipped into condition for our encounter with an ancient rival, Randolph-Macon Academy, of Front Royal. We handed .them a decided defeat, 8-0. ' I - With high expectations and anticipations, the team next invaded Black- stone, who also lost to our crack squad. A more formidable adversary 'then presented itself to our team, the Shenandoah College, andrthis encounterended in their favor-our first defeat. Again away from home, we playediVi E. S., at Lynchburg, and although it was a bitterly contested battle, we lost to them by the small score of 3-2. OH: again, the team invaded the Virginia Polytechnic Institute where was played the hardest game of the season. Most of the breaks going, to them, we were defeated, the game ending with them seven points ahead. For the next game the team came home to give us the much-looked- forward-to exhibition of their ability. This proved to be a very interesting and exciting game. Johnny Bowen showed us some fast first-base work and Rosser some excellent hits. Our team soon piled up a big score against Blacksburg High School. ' A At Danville we met Danville Military Institute and succumbed to them, although our team fought to the last second. g E931 lll i lll 11 ,.i. 5 -1- 1 A T.: ' - N- in Q- - if! .Q l -1 1 L.

Next, Augusta defeated our team in a terrific battle ending l5-8 in their favor. B Now approached the biggest game of the season, with Roanoke High School. This was the opponent which the cadets wished most to sink. The game was a fast one marked after the fashion of the Big l..eagfuers, and the spectators witnessed an exhibition of pep and go that was nothing short of marvelous. The team came through with flying colors amid the cheers of the cadets and beat Roanoke, 9-2. Our defeat in football at their hands was avenged. Natural Bridge then came to try their luck, but met a crushing defeat at the hands of the Methodists, 21-2. A Our last encounter was with the Bedford Athletic Association, which fared no better than the preceding team. ' Thus, the baseball season came to a close with most of the games to our credit. The reports of the neighboring papers on the actions of our team were most favorable to read, but it did not take those reports to convince. us: we knew from the ezrhibitions given by our team. Prospects for this year's team are of the best and we see no reason why it should not be a winner. V 1 As our record of the work of our last year's team draws to a close we can but extend your most heartfelt congratulations to those of that memorable squad who played the game for all there's in ii: who played the game and played to win it.

Swimming SEASON 1927-1928 l-IEN candidates for the tank team were called this year an entirely new group of swimmers reported to Coach Maben, these being the first tankers turned out by the Lemon and Black for two years. The Cadet Sea Lionsn won their first victory against Washington and Lee Freshmen by a score of 33 to 28 in a meet held in our home tank. Thus, our tankers, showing wonderful form, began thelseason. Although inexperi- enced, our team ,showed excellent form in all events-remarkable speed in the water and exceptional form on the board and in the air. Our next meet was with Fishburne Military School in our home tank. This was a very strenuous contest and it seemed that the Methodist Sea Lions would be victorious up until the very last minute when, after some controversy over the diving, we went down into a lighting defeat by the small margin of four points. The final score was 33 to 29. l961mYi IH' 'Nl -13 wi, in UP EU W -if X -- c r- gs .4 -'KT -- fe sh CAPTAIN I-loans COACH MABEN Then, one cold and wintry morning, our tankers departed for their trip up the Valley to meet Fishburne Military School, Staunton Military Academy, Augusta Military Academy and Washington andfl..ee University' Freshmen. Riding all morning and part of the afternoon' in cars, the team went with determination in their minds to beat Fishburn. But we received the small end of a 44 to I5 score. Our next encounter was with one of the strongest teams in the State- that of Staunton Military Academy. On their team they had two lnterscholastic men who, in their meet with us, set two State records. Here, again, our cadets were defeated, the bad news being 48 to l2. Then we met Augusta Military Academy in the Y pool, at Staunton, Virginia. This meet was a very sensational one in that all events were nearly ties. But our cadets again received a defeat, the score being I8 to 42. ln the last meet of our trip we faced, for the second time, the Washington and Lee University Freshman team, in their pool at the University. By this time our team, being on the go for its fourth day, was nearly worn out. Although confident of winning this meet, our tankers were nosed out again with a score of I8 to 42. Our last meet was with Augusta Military Academy in our home tank. Being our last meet, this brought a very large audience and it is believed that everyone thoroughly enjoyed the event, for it proved to be the most thrilling of the season, due to the now well-trained Mermaids of R.-M.

Carstarphen and Tripp showed up well in the hundred-yard dash, both beating the Virginia State champion. Tripp again stood out as a fast swimmer in the forty-yard dash, beating another State champion. But, once again, R.-M. Afs F-77 gallant, but never disheartened, tankmen were defeated by a score of 24 to 36. l i The following are to be commended for their ultra-fine performance i during the season of l928: Without Bob Stork we are sure that diving would not have been the i success it was this yearg Bill Davis was more of a help to our team than can be expressed, in his swimming of the relay, the forty-yard and hundred-yard dashesg Dan Taylor served as a great help to the team in the two hundred and twenty-yard swimg Raynor, improving all season, was a great help in the two I hundred and twenty swim, toog John T. Carstarphen is to be more than con- l gratulated for his speedy work in the relay and two hundred and twenty-yard swimg Carroll, I-l., showed excellent form and was a much-needed help in the diving, forty-yard back and breast strokeg the success of our relay team was largely due to the excellent work of HE. J. Alderferg his brother, Alderfer, l H., was also of great service to the team in his excellent Work in the diving and forty-yard back strokeg Alva Tripp was our outstanding swimmer and was high-point man-he swam' the forty-yard and hundred-yard and the relay l in fine formg heading the team, Captain Hobbs upheld the breast stroke' in fine style. Although not placing in the first meet, he was not disheartened and came back with a first or second in every meet after that. To him is due a large part of the success of the team, being always there for practice, thus setting an example for the others to follow. We wish to make special mention here of one of our star divers, Lucas Baird, who, due to a serious accident, was unable to be with the team this season. Last, but by far not least, Coach Maben is to be commended for his hard and untiring work with the team in training each individual for his particular event. To Coach Maben the whole team extends their heart-felt appreciation for the unsparing effort expended by him this season. Thefprospects for next year's team are quite brilliant, as all but two y members of this year's team will return to school next fall.

When Coach -1 Weaver put in the call for candidates for the 1927 track team, he met with a ready 1 response from a sq-uad of about thirty men who reported on the field for practice. Coach Nveaver immediately began to put his men through the paces and develop an awkward, ' inexperienced lot of men into a competent team. At a recent meeting of the men of the 1 1928 track team, Abramson was elected to pilot the team through what promised to be a 1' hard season for the Lemon and Black. I-le, with Snead and Stead, made iup the old-man nucleus about which the new team was to form. ' We had our first encounter with Virginia Episcopal School and I-largrave, at Virginia Episcopal School, in a triangular meet. All of the team fought untiringly to win the meet 1 1 but, as we had all raw material, we were defeated, Hargrave Winning and Virginia I N Episcopal School coming second. Our next meet was with Danville Military Institute on 1 the home field, which was very muddy from an all-night rain. The home team was ' defeated by a very close score. I-largrave Military Academy next took our team into camp at Chatham by the very close score of 54-42. The last meet of the season was with 1 Lynchburg High School on the home field. We were again defeated. lt Snead proved himself very capable in the 220, broad jump and the low hurdles, while -I :LT Phlegar and Nance showed themselves to be tip top weight men. Dawson and Snead took i 1 'T care of the 440 in fine order for men who never-ran before. Abramson is a man of no 4-S mean ability in the broad jump and 100-yard dash. Kolipinski, with a little training, will prove himself to be one of the best umilersn in the state. Snead is making a record for himself in pole vault, attaining the height of ten feet, six inches. . What are the prospects for this season? Snead is Captain-Elect, and Phlegar is the E ' Captain of Weights. With these men as a nucleus, and with the enthusiasm shown at the first practices by the number of men reporting, we look forward to a successful season. , I lol 1 1 4 As- - Ill' 1 -S1111 0 1-'A,...-6-'ii' X I I A W - A I f A .

U' F R1-Lit?-lt 51'9-2-8 Field Day IELD DAY, for many years past, has been looked forward to as the Big Day at Randolph-Macon Academy and, without doubt, it will hold the same place in the future. It is a day on which not only the talent of the Cadets is shown, but also the spirit of the companies is boosted. Furthermore, this is the day on which the champion of sports and the queen of sports are chosen. This, of course, is of interest to others as well as the students. Cadet Harry Ford, of Bristol, Tennessee, won the championship in the Field Day sports at Randolph-Macon. Academy, May 7th, l927. The sky was overcast in the early morning, offering prospects of rain, but served merely to protect the crowd and contestants from the sun and make the day an ideal one for athletic contests. Practically every cadet took part in one or more of the events on the program, and made the occasion one of lively interest. A large number of attractive prizes were offered the winners of each event and a gold medal was presented to the all-round champion. The day of sport was followed by a social evening of pleasure. The Annual Field Day Reception was held from eight to eleven. Captain R. H. Marks was master of ceremonies and, after reviewing in a most interesting way the athletic record of the year, he introduced Captain Tazewell T. Hubbard, a former member of the Academy faculty, who, in a very interesting way, made the address of the evening. Especial attention was called to the fact that the Academy Basket Ball Team won the Sportsmanship Trophy in the South Atlantic Tournament recently held at Washington and Lee University. The individual prizes and medals were then awarded, the company cup for the highest number of points was presented to A Company, and Cadet l-l. B. A. Ford was announced as the all-round champion and presented with a handsome gold medal. As Queen of Sports, Miss Louise Arthur was chosen by popular vote of those cadets taking part in the contests of the day, and was escorted to the rostrum. She selected Misses Gladys White and Mary Rebecca Wilson as her maids and then placed the wreath of victory on the brow of Cadet Ford, thus giving additional honor to the champion of the day. After a brief reception to the Queen and her Court, refreshments were served in the dining hall. These were tastefully prepared by Mrs. George l... Burton, and enjoyed by all. During this time Colonel William R. Phelps presented to the champion the I-lyslop Memorial Cup, awarded by Mr. W. Sturgis, of New York, and announced that Cadet Ledbetter, of North Carolina, was winner of the State Championship in Public Speaking in the contest just completed at the University of Virginia. The auditorium, corridors and dining hall were beautifully decorated in the school colors, lemon and black, 'under direction of Mrs. M. Day. 'The pleasure of the evening was enhanced by delightful music rendered by Coy Miller's Orchestra, of Lynchburg. When the hour of departure arrived the happy throng of young people dispersed with the unanimous feeling that Field Day was a great success, and would linger long in the memory of those who enjoyed it. lll6l - H , W 1. lil' am. - tw T -J l vl il ,. i 'fi -1- vi' i V I l Li..
