We have tried to produce a paper interestingly written and attractive. The Megaphone realized the difficulty in making a News paper out of a weekly publication. Several changes were made and several new ideas entered into the make-up of the paper. We have tried to be nothing but constructive in the editorial policies. We wish to extend to Miss Pearl A. Neas, Mr. W. Dwight Wentz, Dr. Barcus, Mrs. McKennon, and Miss Kuykendall, and all the members of the staff a hearty We thank you for the constant and invaluable help given us. We also wish to thank the business men of Georgetown for their cooperation in a business way. We hope the paper has been a source of enjoym ent to the students, faculty, Alumni and all the other subscribers. LITTLE. magkzine Staff VAUGHAN MOOD SAMDER3 HEATH The Southwestern Magazine Published twice each term by the Student body of Southwestern University George F. Mood Editor-in-ChieJ Thomas T. Willis Business Manager Elizabeth Little Associate Editor Rudolph Vaughn Assistant Business Manager Dr. Claud Howard Faculty Advisor The Southwestern Magazine is the newest publication of the cam- pus, at least to present day students. In former years, it was published monthly by the student body and was for a number of years the only publication existing on the campus. It was later discontinued, however, and was not revived until the session of 1923-24. Since that time it has been issued twice each term and has endeavored to furnish an outlet for literary productions of students themselves. The Southwestern Magazine has endeavored to prove itself worthy of a place in Southwestern and has tried to fulfill a need which was not heretofore met by either of the other publications. Many difficulties have arisen during the present session to retard the rapid development of this, the youngest publication on the campus. Many students have given of their time and service to the production of the Magazine, and the Staff of 1924-25 wishes to take this method of giving expres- sion to appreciation of these efforts. Special recognition should ge given to Dr. Claud Howard, Professor S. P. Davidson, and Dr. J. C. Gran- bery for their cooperation and invaluable assistance. gg§| THE • SOU ' WESTERljpjj Stewart Clendenin, President MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL Philip Lemon John Brown Frank Mood Henry Fisher Duane Mateer Joe Brown Love The Mood Hall Honor Council automatically disbanded when the boys moved from the Hall. Before the removal, however, the Council exerted its influence in trying to uphold the high standards of honor, scholarship and loyalty to the university. ■ OU ' WESTE Womans Building Honor Council Eula Mae Ross President Elizabeth Little Mary Hemphill Lorine Puckett Martha Rountree Luella Lamb Johnnie Marie Brooks Janice Goodson Lois Walker This self governing body of young women has functioned successfully for several years, and with the removal to Mood Hall its importance was greatly increased. The change did not hinder its efficiency in the least, however, and the young women of the University are a real self-governing body. Alamo Literary Society Fall Term OFFICERS FOR 1924- 1925 J f Inter Term Frank A. Mood President Buster Powell George Gray Vice President Wilson Fox Johnnie Marie Brooks Secretary Mildred Brown Spring Term Wilson Fox President Paul Lawlis Vice President Ruth Stanley Secretary The Alamo Literary Society was founded in 1845 under a name different from its present name, but under similar leadership and constitutional government. In 187;, the society was transferred to Southwestern University as the University ' s first literary society. The true spirit of the original group of men that lost their lives in the Texas Alamo, has been transferred to the members of the present society, and these present Alamos are ever loyal. Interest and good work is expressed in the regular meetings of the society, socials, debates, and athletic contests. And it is this year, especially that the interest and the enthusiasm in the society has increased. The membership now numbers fifty-five, and if there is ever a group of students that are going to work for a bigger and better Southwestern it is this group; they stand for the bigger and better things of life, and present them in an interesting way. :ster San Jacinto Literary Society OFFICERS Fall Term Winter Term Walter Bell President Willis Ellison Joe Brown Love Vice President . . . .

Many of the names of the prominent men of our state are written there — men who acknowledge their debt to San Jacinto. Records of a long line of victories are written there — victories in debate, in athletic events, and in oratory. In the present year that spirit has been carried on. From our ranks have come the editor of the Megaphone, the director of the orchestra, the editor and business manager of the Sou ' wester, and many other officers of honor in the student body, and ten of the sixteen intercol- legiate debaters. Last year we won the victories in football and bas- ketball over our opponents, the Alamos. In that year we also won the Brooks Prize Debate which we have won continuously for a number of years. This year we tied our opponents in football and defeated them in basketball. Finally we staged a splendid celebration of San Jacinto ' s Golden Jubilee with a large number of members present. At the end of a half of a century San Jacinto looks forward to a more brilliant and more useful future. GATES GRAVES Brooks Prize Debate San Jacinto — Joe Burcham Leo Duke Alamo — J. Y.

Mask and Wig Club 1924-25 The Mask and Wig Club was organized several years ago by Mr. W. Dwight Wentz, head of the Public Speaking Department, for the purpose of increasing the interest of the students in Dramatic produc- tion. The members of the Club are invited from other classes of the department. Each year the Club gives two oi the leading dramas. The first term Shakespeare ' s Much Ado About Nothing was presented with greater success than any previous play given by the organization. The happy life of Italian nobility was portrayed with unusual ability by, Ed Barcus as Claudio; Roscoe Carter as Benedick; Roland Egger as Leonto; Walter Moss as Don Pedro; Mary Alice Wilson as Beatrice; and Roberta Ricks as Hero. But the second term an entirely different play was presented, Henrik Ibsen ' s Peer Gynt. In presenting this play the Mask and Wig Players undertook the hardest task that had ever been attempted by a college dramatic club. Peer Gynt is a one character play, but this character had to interpret all of Ibsen ' s philosophy and portray this in such a manner as to reveal the national life of Norway. Peer is a likable, lovable, philosophical, vagabond; always wanting to be himself, but not willing to pay the price. Always going around, over, or under an obstacle but never willing to face one and conquer it. Peer travels around the earth, is the leading merchant of Africa, then a prophet in India, and then coming back to Norway empty handed and with a bowed head. The title role, Peer, was played by Roscoe Carter, and he played his part from beginning to end. He played the game; he paid the price, placing his name by the side of those of other students of Southwestern who have shown themselves worthy of great things. Another thing done in the production of Peer Gynt was the using of an orchestra in connection with the play. Under the direc- tion of Miss Feme Hassell, the effective rendition of Greig ' s Peer Gynt Suite by the orchestra added much to the play in both atmos- phere and interpretation.

Mood Treasurer The Ministerial Association is that group of men that have begun their preparation for the active work of the ministry. Its object is fellowship, and its practices for its members include opportunities for actual preaching experience, sympathy and practical help, as it is able, in personal problems, discussions and talks, authoritative and unauthoritative, on Church interests. The number of students preparing for the ministry increases year after year, on an average, and the responsibility and active work of the Association must increase accordingly. The meetings of the Association are at 10:00 a. m. Fridays, and at 9:00 a. m. Sundays; all business is transacted, when possible, in the Friday meetings, and no time is lost on the devotional programs Sundays. ;STERl=g tSi r - YfF3i th; Y.W.C.A. Y.M.C.A. Annanelle Hamblen President Y.W. George F. Mood President Y.M. PURPOSE To lead students to faith through Jesus Christ. To lead them into member- ship and service in the Christian Church. To promote their growth in Christ- ian faith and character, especially through the study of the Bible and prayer. To influence them to devote themselves in united effort with all Christians to making the will of Christ effective in Human society, and to extend the Kingdom of God throughout the world. The methods employed by the Y. W. and Y. M. to form a campus-wide fellowship for all those interested in the program of Christ are such that exalt the things that unite rather than the things that divide us in our great loyalty to Christ. Membership in the Association means linking oneself up with an organization which covers the entire world. The Y.W. and Y. M. are affiliat- ed with the World ' s Student Christian Federation, which operates in two thousand four hundred and nine institutions of higher learning around the world. The yearly program of the associations includes work with new students, such as help in registering, finding rooms, and general assistance in becoming oriented; a reception for new students and other socials given through the year; prayer groups and weekly devotional meetings, and the organization of social service and gospel teams which work in and about Georgetown. Southwestern was represented last June at the Ozark Mountains Stu- dent Conference by Walter Moore, George F. Mood, P. K. Durrett, and Wilson Fox. Honorary Fraternities Pi Alpha Mu (Honorary) This organization made its first appearance on the campus in the spring of 1924. The purpose of this organization was to establish a means through which a student holding certain elective offices in the student body might receive more recognition, and that more honor, if possible, might be his. The need of such a grouping of the leading members of the Student body was the idea of the editor and business manager of the 1924 Sou ' wester, and through their efforts the organ- ization of the Pi Alpha Mu Honorary Fraternity was perfected. The membership was to be made up of the persons securing one of the following offices: the President, Vice President, and Secretary of the Students ' Association; the Editor and Business Managers of the Sou ' wester, Southwestern Magazine, and the Megaphone; the Presi- dents of the Y. M. and Y. W.; The Presidents of the University Honor Council, the Woman ' s Building Honor Council, and the Mood Hall Honor Council; The Captains of the Football, Basketball, Base- ball, and Track teams. The Sou ' wester Staff having fostered the idea, it was decided that the Editor of each Sou ' wester should in turn, automatically, become President of the Fraternity. Those persons in the student body who are now eligible to member- ship are: George H. Mitchell Bolton Boone J.

A prize is given by the society at commence- ment to the Freshman who makes the highest scholastic average during his first year in college. Each year the Society is addressed by an invited speaker who deals with matters relating to high scholarship and the advancement of knowledge. The Society is thoroughly democratic. Membership is granted to those students who make an average of ninety over eighteen majors of work or an average of eighty-seven over twenty-seven majors of work. In addition to high scholarship, good reputation and character are essential qualifications for membership. The colors of the Society are emerald green, signifying victory, and sapphire blue, signifying truth. The badge is a shield bearing a lamp, and is worn only by members of the society. iE ' Sou ' w ' j y Sf ABB Pi Gamma Mu In the Fall of 1924 a national undergraduate honor society in the social sciences was organized under the name of Pi Gamma Mu, Greek letters for words signifying students of social science. In addition to Faculty and Alumni members, only Seniors whose chief work and interest are in the social sciences, whose scholarship is high, and who manifest special aptitude in social science, are eligible for membership. A strong charter chapter was organized at Southwestern University. A member of the Faculty is one of the founders and is a Vice-President of the national organization. The President of the local chapter is Professor J. C. Granbery, the Vice- President Miss Annanelle Hamblen, and the Secretary-Treasurer Miss Mary Thompson. The following are the members: Dr. Jno. C.

This game was played before school opened and served merely to show Coach Gardner what his new material could be developed into. The game was marred chiefly thru the injuries our players received. Five of our players were so handled that they were forced to retire from practice for a week or ten days. A. M. 54, Southwestern o We journeyed to Aggieland, were de- feated, and we say in our defeat that A. and M. had some team. We have the consolation of knowing, however, that five of our men were out of the lineup because of injuries received the previous week. In the last quarter that old Pirate spirit crept into the gang and we made a return of 30 yards on a 50 yard punt, then we un- corked a 35 yard run around left end for first down. Next an 18 yard pass was com- pleted, but the game was over before the drive cou ld be completed. Bruce Duncan Captain-elect Guard J. W. Reynolds Captain — Tackle mMi Rice 20, Southwestern 6 Lamar Camp Center Chester Beard Halfback Our third game with a Southwestern Conference team ended with us at the short end of a 20 to 6 score. The game started off with a rush and we had made our touchdown by a pass, Royal to Beard, during the first six min- utes of play. The second quarter started with Rice resorting to an aerial attack and before we realized it, a pass had been com- pleted and the score was tied at the end of the first half. From then on the game was uninterest- ing due to the terrific heat. The Rice field, altho solidly turfed, was very dry and clouds of dust formed around the toiling, sweating, players at the completion of each play. Meeks, Beard, Gunn, Mateer, and Royal played beautiful football with Camp and Potty coming in for their share of the praises. Howard Payne 20, Southwestern 8 Anxious to avenge their defeat of last year, and to prove that the insect can sting man, the Howard Payne Yellow Jackets trounced our Pirates to the tune of 20 to 8. Their scoring was attributed to the fact that the insect can see better after sun down. The game was called before the time limit because of darkness, but it was too late as the damage had already been done. In this game Mateer, our Pirate speed demon, ran for 80 yards, eluding the fast Chaney, for a touchdown in the first quar- ter. We held this lead until the third quar- ter when darkness set in and our fumbles were costly. Due to the spectacular playing of Perrin, C. Reynolds, Royal and Mateer, the crowd of rooters were riotously mad with the thrill of the game. Kenneth Royal Quarterback J. I. Weatherby Quarterback . Trinity 3, Southwestern 7 H. 0. Whitehurst Center After three defeats at the hands of schools with greater resources than our own, vic- tory was sweet by winning our first T. I. A. A. game. Man triumphed over beast when the Pirates tamed the Tigers to the 7 to 3 effect. The game was full of thrills and spills and no one was injured on either side. We may attribute our victory to our ability to complete passes at the critical moments and the Tigers inability to break up our air-tight plays. The game was played for the most part in Pirate territory especially during the first quarter. At the beginning of the second the Pirates put up their marker by way of a pass, Royal to Reynolds. Time after time the Tiger backs would find a stone wall when they bumped into our line, composed of Duncan, Adam, Big Beck, Camp, and Captain Potty . The Tiger machine was built upon line plunges and our line deserves all the praise for this victory. Our passing machine of Royal, Mateer, and Weeks to Perrin, Skip- worth, and C. Reynolds was without a flaw in its operation. Howard Blackburn Halfback Stephen F. Austin o, Southwestern 32 In our first game on our home grounds with our Pep Squad, Band and large crowd of dyed in the wool Pirate Rooters, we saw the powerful Pirate Machine romp over Stephen F. Austin Teacher ' s College eleven to the tune of 32 to o. In not a single trick of the game did our Corsairs fail to show their superiority. In the air we completed our passes and also completed those of our foes. When it Carl Reynolds End Tom Perrin End came to punting Royal and Mateer easily outclassed the rivals. Our line was im- pregnable and the spectacular runs and plunges of Mateer, Adams, Royal, Black- burn, Weeks, and Gunn kept the stands in a wild frenzy of joy. Proof of the above can be seen when we compare our 21 first downs to the 4 that we allowed our op- ponents. Each of the fifteen men who played in this game showed themselves real athletes and promise us an even more powerful machine for next year. Hendrix College 3, Southwestern 2 The Pirates lost a heart breaking affair to Hendrix College at Conway, Arkansas on November the eleventh. That old all- fighting spirit was there, but after such a long ride on jerkey railroads the team was worn out, and together with costly fum- bles, easy passes incompleted, spelled de- feat for our Pirates. Once on the Hendrix one foot line we lost the ball through a fumble and the game rocked on to a close with the score showing Hendrix on the long end of a 2 to 3 score. Coach Gardner was saving our men for the fracas with Austin College as it is a conference game, while this Hendrix affair was not. The Buccaneers kept the pigskin in the territory of the Arkansans during the major portion of the time, clearly out playing their opponents in every phase of Austin College 9, Southwestern 20 The dope bucket was completely upset, spilled and turned bottomside up, with the Corsairs sitting on it to hold it down, when we journeyed to Temple and took the kick from the Kangarooby by letting him off on the small end of a 20 to o count. Austin College beat Baylor, and Baylor won the Southwestern Conference title, so we are justly proud of this victory. Both teams resorted to the aerial attack, but we were superior at our own game The game was full of spectacular tackles and passes. The ball see-sawed back and Grady Reynolds, Tackle C. N. Bachtel, Guard forth over the middle of the field after Southwestern had put two markers up after the first six minutes of play by a fluke pass Mateer to Reynolds, and later another beautiful pass by the same two stars. In the last period Gunn, the Pirate with wings on his feet, ran 94 yards thru the entire Kangaroo team for a touchdown. C. Reynolds was the outstanding star in all plays, with Camp starring on de- fense. Others who clothed themselves in glory were Mateer, Royal, and Skipworth. The entire student body, accompanied by the Pep Squad and Band, went by special train to witness the great struggle. San Marcos Normal 6, Southwestern 12 Everyone loves a fine ending for any- thing, whether it be fiction or fact, and so it was with our football season, when the Bobcats tasted the cruel lash of the hard- hearted Pirates. This game was a flashing, fighting spec- tacular affair that fairly took one ' s breath away. Thrill upon thrill was given the crown by the brilliant tackling of Little Beck, Skipworth and Perrin; the passing and punting of Royal; the ground gaining of Mateer, Beard, and Sory, and the line playing of Reynolds, Camp and Duncan. Leroy Gunn Halfback The first half ended with the score 6 to o. in lavor of San Marcos. In the third quarter Southwestern revived and made two drives the length of the field, only to lose the ball on the goal line. The last quarter was a fast aerial attack in which W. H. Hewitt Manager Leroy Weeks Fullback Sory carried the oval for a touchdown and tied the score. With four seconds to play, Perrin dragged the ball out of the air and over the goal line, giving a final sweet victory of 11 to 6. And thus ended a very successful season. With four victories and one defeat in the T. I. A. A., we have no apologies to offer. This section would not be complete with- out first paying tribute to our ever helpful, cheerful manager. Speck will be long remembered by the football squad of 1924. CAPTAIN ADAMS Adams, Captain Forward Quince was the boy who you could always depend upon to ring the basket. He shot them in, no matter where he was. Just let him dribble down the court, jump, shoot and it was all over but the shouting. He will be back next year. Kidd — Guard Captain is one of the most consistent playing guards ever seen in a Pirate suit. He stayed with his man all the time and it was rarely ever that the opposing for- ward put one in through h is side. We lose him through graduation. Camp — Guard Lammer always jumped in and spilled a crip shot of our op- ponents. They always gave him the ball to advance down the court in a brilliant dribble. Occasionally he would slip up and ring a basket just for the fun of it. He also graduates this year. Roya l — Forward Kent was great on shooting the ball from the side of the court. He also was an excellent passer and receiver, rarely ever did he miss a pass. In the Canyon game he rang up 1 8 of the points for the Pirates. He also graduates this June. Reynolds — Center Carl was the mainstay of the Pirate scoring machine. He could shoot a goal from any place on the floor and in any position. He always smiles even if things go wrong and is a star in everything he does. He is our first four letter man in a good many years. He was given the award which proclaimed him our most valuable player. Carl will be with us again next vear. Skip worth — Guard Skip ' ' was one of the relief guards, and when it came to en- durance and power he was all there. He was mixed in every fracas where the ball was and he always came out on top. Skip finishes his career in Southwestern this year. THB • SOU ' WESTER! Mateer — Forward Rabbit is as tireless as a Spanish Pony and as fleet as a Mercury. He had the sureness of eye that it takes to play basket- ball and boy how he could play. He was the best relief forward we had and he always played to the limit. It is doubtful whether he will return next year. Lee — Forward Harold is our short, yet sure for- ward. He has the handicap of lack of height, but makes up for it in sureness of aim. He rarely ever fouled, played hard and was sure of himself at all times. He will be back next year. S ki n n e r — Ma n ager C. I. always had the things for the team and had them there on time. He saw to it that everything was provided for and was the kind of a manager every team wants. He gave all he had to the team and kept them furnished in everything from towels to tape. Season Writeup Our Corsair crew journeyed to Austin to meet Texas University. Our first game was ours until the last minute of play when the Long- horns threw two field goals, thus ending the game with an 18 to 16 victory. The second game was loosely played and we also lost it. It is interesting to remember what the Longhorn coach said regarding our team. I would rather have Gardner ' s crew than my own, as he has more likely looking prospects than myself. C. Reynolds seems to be his best. And so it was all through the season, for Carl starred in all games. Next Austin College felt the cut of Pirate Dirks in two affrays to the tune ot 26-11 and 27-6. Then came our trip invading North Texas. We kept our slate clean by trouncing the fast professional team of Stickle Lumber Company of Dallas. Four of our games on this trip were cancelled, two with Trinity and two with Austin College. We next downed the Canyon Buffaloes 23-17, this was practically the same team that won the T. I. A. A. last year. Next we took on the San Marcos Bobcats and man triumphed over beast again when the Bobcats caught the short ends of a 35-21, and a 22-14 basket feast. Next the insect showed up, only to be swatted with the 17 to 6 and 29 to 4 counts. It began to look as tho we were not going to lose a single T. I. A. A. game when we lost to San Marcos in the next to the last game of the season, thus marring our record. A foul was committed just as the whistle blew and their free throw gave them the game 16 to 15. We came back in the next tilt and won 22 to 14, and thus we cinched the T. I. A. A. title. We won the title, the first time in many years and such men as Camp, C. Reynolds, Kidd, and Captain Adams were stars in most every game. Our reserve men, Royal, Mateer, Lee, Skipworth, and Perrin would always be called on to do their stuff if one of the regulars was not in top form.

A. A. meet at Abilene. Skip worth — Captain Pap is just like a good race- horse, always full of pep, fire and energy. He gives all he has in every race, and generally to man who breaks the tape. He has been captain during a most successful season. Waterston Spark Plug does not live up to his nickname, because he is up and in the money in all the races. When it comes to going around the track for the relay team, Tass is always there. He will not be back next year. Kidd Captain is the cleanest runner on the squad. He has the habit of showing his heels to all his competi- tors in every meet. He is the fastest of the quartet that make up our cup- winning relay team. J. Barcus John is a little man who has the endurance to run like a scared deer. Always coming in and breaking the tape just ahead of his opponents. He is a sure point getter. McDaniel Mac has the long flexible legs that make a good pole vaulter. He was the best that has donned a Pirate suit in many years and was the best one in the T. I. A. A. this year. We lose him after this season. Burgin Fred could walk to the bar and leap 6 ft. 2 and }£ inches with ease and sometimes could stretch it to 6 ft. 4 inches. He has the long shaggy legs of a real high jumper and always cops first place. GUNN Shot lived up to his name. He was as small and as fleet as a bullet. He could dash the ioo and 220 with the best of them, and generally man- aged to stretch the tape at the finish. Greater things are expected of him. Dickson Dex is also a small man but a mighty one. He runs the 880 like it was the 220, and always is in the lead. He is the best half-miler who has donned the Pirate suit in several seasons. Mateer Rabbit is his name and he is as fleet of foot as the best of them. He also has a powerful right arm and heaves the javelin for new records each year. He will be with us for another season. Gregory — Manager Rupert was entirely capable of tak- ing care of a championship squad. He had no little part in turning out the great track team that we had.

Barcus, Kidd, Bachtel, Burgin, McDaniel, and Love, met Texas University, the champions of the Southwestern Conference, in our first meet, at Austin, Burgin easily won the high jump, but our other stars failed to get a first place. The final score was: Texas 104 , Southwestern 2y 2 . We were simply no match for this larger and stronger school. Our next meet was with A. and M. on our home grounds. The meet was a lively one and our team got into good form, but in spite of our efforts the final score was: A. and M. 87, Southwestern 11. Mateer, Burgin, Waterston, and J. Barcus were our point men. Mateer was high point man of the meet. On April 19 we journeyed to Houston and plucked the feathers from the Rice Owls to the tune of 56-53. In this meet Burgin was in Kansas attending the Relays and his absence was keenly felt, but Mateer, Skipworth, Kidd, Gunn and Dickson bore the brunt of the fray and we came out on top. Mateer was high point man of this meet also. Our next meet was with the San Marcos Bobcats and here we easily emerged the victors. The Corsairs chased the Cats into their dens with eleven firsts and five seconds, against their three firsts and nine seconds. In this meet the relay team won by a margin of 20 yards. The meet was rather slow due to the superiority of the Pirates. On May 8 our team departed for Abilene and on the nth they came back wearing the scalp, shield and cup of the T. I. A. A. firmly on their belts. The meet was one of thrills galore and the winning of the meet depended entirely upon the relay team. Kidd had thrown a tendon and Gusman was substituted in his place and was a good understudy of the fleet footed Captain Kidd. The track season closed as successful as we could want with the T. I. A. A. title in our camp. Burgin, our high jumper, went to the Drake, New Orleans, and Harvard Relays for the Olympic tryouts. Mateer went to New Orleans and won first place in the decathlon.

Coach Young Baseball Mr. Young is an old Southwestern Baseball star and for the past few years has been coaching high school athletics. He is a true lover of our national sport and is held in high esteem by all who know him. The baseball club of 1925 is assured of absolute success and the school is to be congratulated upon securing such a capable man as he to coach her leading spring sport. He will also assist Coach Gardner with the gridiron material. ' vim Robertson, Captain 2nd Base Rock was a good hitter and played the second sack all the time. He was captain, and had a team behind him of which he was justly proud. McDaniels — First Base Mac had the initial sack and no matter how wild the ball went he went to it and nailed the man out. A better first baseman is hard to find. Weatherby — Third and Second Base Snuffy played all over the infield with the exactness of a vet- eran. He could also get a hit when it was needed. Lee — Outfield Harold never errored if the ball was anywhere in his territory. Everyone felt safe when he went after a long fly to left field. Beard — Outfield and Catcher Check who was elected cap- tain of the 1925 team, could talk to the team and instill more pep than any other man on the club. He never missed a foul off the bat, nor a fly. Bragg — Outfield Ed would always give the stands a thrill by getting one which no one but he could handle. No matter how they came, they were in a net when they reached his part of the field. He could hit as well as field. HE Reynolds — Pitcher Pottie was a twirler with a ball that was hard to hit. No mat- ter how he stood he played the game safe. Rountree — Outfield John always got his flies and when it came to batting, well the fences had to be moved back or over the fence he put the pill. Gray — Pitcher Willis played air tight ball all the time. Although it was his first year he did well and showed pro- mise of being a vital factor in the 1925 season. Simmons — Pitcher Let Bennet get hot and mad and then watch ' em smoke. He pitched so they couldn ' t see ' em. He was the ace of our twirlers. Crump — Shortstop Harold was the star of the in- field. He was always sure of him- self, made few errors, hit in most every game, and was one of the most graceful athletes that ever donned a Pirate uniform. Boone — Third and Outfield Bonnie was the smallest man on the club, and the peppiest. He was always on the sack or on the ball at the right time. He was a consistent hitter as well as a good fielder. Land rum — Manager Sloppy always had what the gang wanted when they wanted it. He was always on the job and stayed there until it was completed. A better manager than he is hard to find. ■ : P ! ! ' 3 . w I  «3i n lpi| 1924 Baseball Season Coach Harry Swenson ' s Seamen journeyed to Austin on March 24 to open the baseball season with the University of Texas Longhorns and were defeated in both games of a two game series. There is one consolation in the fact that the Longhorns won the Southwestern Conference Title. Throughout the whole season we played nine series with T. I. A. A. teams and were victorious in the majority of our encounters. Those games included series with Nacogdoches Teachers College, San Mar- cos, Austin College, and Sam Houston Normal there and here. In these games our pitching staff of Duncan, Hardin, Gray, and Reynolds pitched air tight ball as the rule. Sometimes we got the breaks and sometimes we did not. The outfield composed of Rountree, Bragg and Lee was the best in the State. Bragg in centerfield always uncorked to make a brilliant catch. The infield composed of Beard, McDaniel, Robertson, Weatherby, Crump, and Boone was one of the fastest in this part of the state. Crump was the surest man who ever played in a Pirate uniform. Taking it all in all we had a baseball team which caused every loyal son of Southwestern to pride himself on past connection with the school. The season ended by giving the A. and M. Farmers a bitter does in a two-game series to the effect of 8-3 and 6-4. The whole team managed to star and put Southwestern on the map on this trip. opularities Maty Mash Buttery ■■■M Si - ( i — — ' i a v ji i ej ) Build on and make thy castles high and fair, Reaching and rising upward to the skies. For several years after Southwestern had been converted into a co-ed school the girl students boarded around in private homes just as the men students did, but this was found to be very unsatisfactory so those in authority decided to build a woman ' s dormitory to be known as The Ladies ' Annex. So thirty- five thousand dollars was raised, twenty-seven of this being the gift of the Snyder Brothers, D. H., J. W., and T. S., who at that time were very wealthy cattle- men of Texas and Wyoming. These gentlemen also were largely responsible for the location on the hill which they thought was the most beautiful and desirable spot, and their choice has always met with the heartiest approval of the many students that have come and gone since that day. As their means were limited only the West wing was built at that time, tho the finished building was planned, and so we have this picture of the first Annex. Dr. C. C. Cody, the grand old man of Southwestern The building was ready for occupancy in 1 891 , and everyone agreed that the logical person to open it and take charge was our own dear Dr. Cody. He occupied many positions of trust and responsibility in Church and State but to none did he give more devoted service than to the girls of the Annex. ME SOU ' WESTEI %jr ( ) Thy spirit like a pagan god still roams, And finds her shrine in a thousand Texas homes: Where children hear retold with love ' s sweet art, Rich simple stories of the human heart. As the years rolled on and girls came in large numbers to S. U. it was found necessary to enlarge the Annex, so in accordance with the original plans the East wing and the addition at the back was added, and this is the Annex as it appeared during the days of Allen. After successfully starting the Annex on her useful career Dr. Cody was followed for four years by Prof. R. F. Young and then Dr. J. R. Allen. ' Dr. J. R. Allen For many years he and Aunt Mollie ruled over the destinies of hundreds of girls and how well they met the responsibilities is proven by the affectionate mention of their names in hundreds of homes that dot this fair State of Texas. At that time there were recitation rooms in the Annex and many of the girls recited as well as lived in her walls. The e were the days of strict rules, long lines to town and to church, seats in the balcony, uniforms and academic caps and chaperons so that no boy came very close. But Cupid laughed at the locksmiths then, as he has done since the beginning of time, and will until time ends, and many homes were planned during the monthly receptions which in after years materialized. OU ' WESTERl He builded better than he knew, The conscious stone to beauty grew. As the years rolled on un- der the successful administra- tions of McLean, Hyer and Bishop, troops of girls came and went. The old building began to show the wear and tear of time, she began to droop and age under the burdens that she had carried so long. So in 1922 during the brief but successful ad- ministration of Dr. P. W. Horn and under the super- vision of Miss Laura Kuyk- endall, Dean of Women, the entire building was remodeled and renovated and she emerg- ed a stately thing of beauty. Once more she lifted her proud head and squared her shoulders and cared for the happy girls that crowded her halls, many of them daughters of her earlier children. How proud we were of our home and we thought we had homes for the girls that would come for many years, but our plans went awry for in the cold gray dawn of January 8, 1925 fire destroyed our beautiful home. Dr. Bishop never did a better thing for Southwestern University than when he made Miss Kuykendall Dean of Women, and if this had been the only thing that he did his administration was worth while. She is ovir own product, one of our children, a student, a teacher, a Dean. It was her fertile brain that planned and executed our wonderful May Fetes and pageants. Our sacred carol services were her creations. In her reign there are no uniforms, no lines but a happy family, boys as well as girls made welcome at the Woman ' s Build- ing. And always there was our gracious Dean always ready to listen to our tales of gladness and sadness. Hers is the eternal spirit of eternal ycuth which forever Miss Laura Kuykendall, Dean of Women Where ere she stops, -when ere she takes a part, She adds a touch of 4£ • SOU ' WBSTERl FF FF I FF E5 ppp pc B PR BBBIL..

Feeling that readers of this section will enjoy the innocent fun that is entered into, and assuming only the responsi- bility for any injury of pride or feelings that it might cause, and referring you to the compiler of this section for your ex- pressions of appreciation and pleasure, we submit for your enjoyment, without apology. THE 1925 CHOKER The 1Q25 Qhoker Volume II Number I STAFF The Choker Editor Like other publications on the Campus, The Choker had a most wonderful time doing all the work himself, and having truth for a basis of his work (unlike other editors) he declines to compile a list of staff members. Foreword As I sit in the haze of cigarette smoke sorting the mud slinging material collected from the Megaphone box for this section, my cynical nature gives vent to a stored up glee. You boys that have had the conceit intensified by the printed popularity in the following pages will find something of a perverted praise in this section, and I am afraid that many of these pages will be severed from the rest of the book and dumped in the waste basket long before your fond mothers unpack the trunk back home. This revelation has drawn no lines of distinction. If you feel that one faction has gotten more pub- licity than another, do not think that it was at all intentional, for we have left that idea out of the section as best we could. The material is indeed plentiful, for how could a bunch of un- conscious, social ambitious irresponsibles go through nine months together without pulling enough good things to fill a section several times this size. Whether you approve or disapprove of this section is really im- material with The Choker. We had our enjoyment in compiling the section, and your criticism cannot take from us the pleasures already experienced, nor can it add much to satisfaction we now enjoy. Kappa Alpha Motto: Save us Camp, ere we perish. Flowers: Jaded Pink Poppies and Roses from the Rhine This bunch has been on the decline ever since it was started a few years ago. They point with pride toward Jim ' s automobile, and Wesley ' s intended abduc- tion last summer; also Wesley ' s activities in other colleges over the State. They are closely affiliated with the local chapter of Phi Mu, who are helping con- siderably in staving off an inevitable downfall. Captain Adams, of basketball fame, leaped into prominence a little out of season this year, when the Honor Council found a quart of fleur-de-corn-patch in his room. This finally terminated in 99 demerits for Adams, and of course, a loud, unheeded howl from the KA ' s and Royal. Their rendezvous, although quite a distance from the shades of the main building, has been the scene of many a gay party, and all classes of stu- dents go there to enjoy the New Braunfels magic water with the boys. During the resting spell between terms a social game was held in the home, and ' twas said that some of the boys came away heavy hearted, light headed, and with their pockets jingling with space. More could be said of these boys, but their insignificance deems it unnecessary. Back in the East the forerunners of a summer sun were blazing a trail for Elijah ' s Chariot. Somewhere out in the distance, a rooster stretched to his full height, and with a most penetrating voice, announced the arrival of another day. This marked the ending of an all night poker session that closed with only one victor. Every member of the chapter had participated in this eventful game, and now all save the lucky one had not even a reminder of his bountiful allow- ance that he had just received. Slowly one of them counted the money before him, and through the haze of Bull Durham smoke one could distinguish the smile of heavenly bliss. You know, he addressed the brothers sitting at the table, I ' m going to have enough money to buy a carton of cigarettes. Kappa Sigma Motto: May we keep secret the actions of Skeet Allen until our social rating becomes more stable Flower: Sulphur Spring Lilies After Mark Anthony had entered Palestine and laid waste the Hebrew king- dom, a group of the fugitives went to Masada, and here on the banks of the Nile started a klan called Kappa Sigma (Keep Swigging.) So named because the inhabitants were broke, and this was their only form of diversion. These people lived a life of wretchedness and starvation for a few years, and gradually all the old people and children died of starvation, leaving a group of young men. About this time the Roman government began to reconsider its violent, unfair actions toward the exiles, and started paying them for their devastated property in Judah. This led the inhabitants, the Kappa Sigs, to become insolent, lazy and proud. Being ambitious to spread their kind throughout the world these young Hebrews began to establish branch chapters of the order throughout eastern Europe, until it finally became a custom for all Hebrew children to become Kappa Sigs. During the 15th century a great schism threatened the ideals of the order, and several younger members of the order broke away from the rest and moved to America. During the last of the nineteenth century a great move- ment was started among the most unintelligent of this new order in America and again a great division was experienced. The rebels cirew up a constitution based on that of the old order and adopted the old name of Kappa Sig. The conser- vatives drew a similar constitution, and voted to call their order the Union of Nickel Squeezers. The two constitutions were practically the same except the conservatives were to arise in the morning for breakfast, and pledged them- selves to a life of usefulness. This briefly outlines the past history of this great and ignoble order that is rich in traditions. Now let us turn to the present chapter of the Kappa Sig variety. The chapter looks with proud sleepy eyes upon Shady, the great leader. His only trouble is finding followers, and getting them to vote like he believes and like he votes. This fact was disclosed in the recent election for student pub- lications. The next most conspicuous is Mr. Artzt, the cynic, who can blow perfect smoke rings. Aesthetic Lilly whose character has never been polluted with the ordinary things of life. Snipes, the obstinate, who persists in having a thought, and eating with a knife. These boys pride themselves on a nice location on the campus, and their ability to hold their order aloof from the multitudes. For further information ask Red Daniels, who has been an active member for something like twelve years. Pi Kappa Alpha Motto: A low average, a high life, a flock of athletes, and a cosmopolitan membership ' ' Flowers: Rye and Oats Some of these boys are noted particularly for their knowledge of bubbling raisins. Fred Burgin made a grave mistake one night when he phoned the house, and told Beef Trust Bachtel to put a lid on the stuff. But don ' t get the idea that all the members have such tendencies for as it was stated before, their frat has a member representing every type, ranging from Atkins the scholar, to Swanson the nit-wit. Swanson ' s uncontrollable tongue is the most evident of all his accomplishments, if it can be classed as an accomplishment. Tull, the Rah, Rah, Boy, is also a member of this group. Armstrong is also one of the elite, and were it not for his enormous capacity and ravenous appetite the grocery trains from the village would have to be discontinued. Army makes quite an appearance in his knickers, stuffed as they are with a fifty two-inch waist. In Polley and Jones this organization has two boys they might be proud of, if they were handled properly. These two boys were almost inseparable for six months of the school year, and then Jones became socialistically inclined and left his old pal to the tender mercies of anyone who would pay any attention to him. S-O-S!! P-D-Q!! A-I-D!! P-K-A. This briefly discloses the state that the chapter is in. They have harrowed the student body trying to find men who will join that can put the chapter on a decent scholastic standing. They have eight initiates and something like fifty pledges. We wonder why little Wise Willie Atkins was pledged. Phi Delta Theta Motto Great Caesarl Hide that chair, here comes the furniture truck from Austin. Flowers: A Funeral Wreath of Black Daisies The elite dwelling of this defunct group is situated on the Avenue, and altho very roomy is a bit crowded. In an effort to get quality, they have swelled their ranks until it looks like a reunion of the offspring of King Solomon. A great jolt was experienced the second term by the members when the Land Lady from Austin appeared on the scene and demanded the rent. The house manager stirred around and raised most of the necessary amount, but this wasn ' t enough to appease the said Land Lady ' s desires, so that afternoon a truck backed up to the front door and hauled off a major portion ol the fixtures. Parker Pumphrey is their social leader. He lives in Taylor, bad environment, and his dictations are beginning to tell on the chapter. Whitehurst is also a cinder in their eye and ' tis said that he disillusions some of the faculty. Joe Bain, the hermit, is also a lime-lighter, but doesn ' t rate so well with the Tri-Delts. We would suggest that, in order to establish a more pleasant relationship with the girls, he learn the language of the farm. October 22, 1924, Bruce Palmer Pledged Phi. Of course they wanted Bruce for his social standing and his inevitable debut in society, but Bruce slings a mean bottle of Chemical prestige and then his 95 44 100 average would boost the Phi ' s average considerable. Sweet essence of tenacity! Of all the perserverance, and onward tread, even though the way be dreary, Kincannon wins the fur lined teeth straighteners. The frats are certainly having a hard time making him take a bid. The Alpha Delts will now rise and sing that suggestive little ditty, I wonder, oh I wonder what a date is like. Seldom Inn Motto: If you want to be a Roman, and can ' t, then practice Roman ideals. Flowers: Onion Heads and Morning Glories The disappointed politicians of Mood Hall had long wanted to seek seclusion from the rest of the Barb boys, but were afraid to for political reasons. Naturally when the addict of evacuation was issued they put into practice their long dreamed of ambition, and moved down to the delapidated apartments near the athletic field. Conceit was quick to show itself, but the members of the aforementioned local order were brought to earth one Monday morning in a meeting of the San Jacinto Literary Society. Some discussion had insued as to just who would play on the Society Basketball team, and Bragg, rather proud of his followers, made the suggesti on that the society leave its athletics to the Seldom Inn gang. A bank of opposition swelled the horizon and right then and there Bragg ' s ambi- tions were blown to bits, and the dreams of the Seldom Inn boys were annihilated. They were not the hot stuff they imagined they were and with several others recognizing the same fact, the would-be-but-can ' t fraternity boys were practi- cally quieted. To show that they are not nearly so powerful as in the other days one has only to look at the elections that have taken place since Christmas. October 10, 1924, Elizabeth Maxwell brought the family car down for the first two weeks of school, hauling the prospects around and trying to make an impression for Alpha Delta Pi. October 21, 1924, Slime Groce was reprimanded by the freshman class for unloyalty. They approached him last night and told him that some radical step must be taken to re-establish him in good standing with the class. Just as these extreme measures were being discussed John Rountree took up the defense of young Groce and a near fight was the result. The Ka ' s came down in a body to lend their assistance. Our Aristocracy We have in our midst a group of would-be social lions and lounge lizards. Their purpose in life is to show, by their leisure actions, that they are children of wealth. In other words they are possessed with million dollar vocal cords, and ten cent brains. This unconscious herd blows into the Mclnnis monopoly in the morning, inquire about the expected shipment of kale from back home, and then park themselves in the seats in that don ' t-care-how-I-land position. The whole setting looks like the volumptuous harem of Ben-No-Dad. Here they sit for a while until every thing has become quiet, and then one of the whiz bang scholars will make his appearance, chuck full of wit and just waiting for an outlet. Ebb Berry, Johnny Tyler, Ben Matthews, and Alex Artzt are the most conspicious of this group, and when they spring one it is usually so old that the average dumb bell has forgotten it, but it serves the purpose anyway. Another trait that is predominant can be found in the boys that never refuse a drink and the habitual cigarette bums. Weird stories of night rides in Caesar ' s service cars are told in a loud whisper, for the participants don ' t want people to hear unless they listen. One conversation interested the Choker in particular, was the one in which several of the aforementioned parasites were discussing a picture show, Paradise Lost, which terminated in several quick exits, and several more red faces. You might be able to get Skinny to tell you about it. Here ' s to our fathers, Whose sheckles are shed For our Jour year ' s loaf, Then we are college bred. ' ' November the 17th, Downey, the boy with the conscientious scruples and religious inclinations, made a spectacular trip to Temple the night before the Austin College game. On cross examination Downey will tell you he made the trip in order to be in a better position to understand and guide his future flock. He also states that he felt the railroad owed him that short ride because of the amount of business he had previously given them. Dumb Bell Pledges And of the pale blue and jaded pink, they made a cluster and pinned it on the dumb bell ' s coat. In the middle of the cluster they caused a little blue pin to be placed. All of this came to pass on the day of March the third, in the year of our Lord 1925. And the house of Seldom Inn rose up in open rebuke and placed a curse on this sinner of the faith. And Cousin Buck, sitting on the hill of hopes, saw these things and his heart was filled with gladness, and coming down from the hill he met his cousin Dumb, and spoke to him of his desire to follow after. But his desires came to naught, and Buck went back into the hill tops and wept until the valleys below were filled to fullness. And on the second day he was affronted by his young lady friend from the land around about Liberty Hill, and when she had seen the cloister, she, too, desired a pin. And thus, according to previous, established practice she was granted the right to be called an Alpha Delta Pi. Our Glee Club Every year our Glee Club is sent out in their tour to give the publicity the University desires, and true to tradition some twenty of the boys sallied forth between terms to hold thousands of people ' s attention while singingsweetly, but it finally terminated in the boys holding several quarts. Outside of several black eyes and spells of dizziness they arrived safely and reported a grand and glorious time to the right benevolent Dean Wunder. Swede Lindell got on the receiving end of a terrible blow in Kennedy when he brought somebody ' s daughter in at the wee small hour of three. Coach Gard- ner should have been there and gotten the time on the some one thousand yards that Lindell was said to have made in approximately 10 flat. All in all the boys had a wonderful time, and it is not unlikely that the truth about all of it, like that of last year ' s Brenham trip, will come out before school is out. Ye Editor ' s Page The book is out! Practically nine months ' work is bound up in this little volume. This page is taken as a medium through which we may give proper recognition to those who have helped us in the work, and also to express our feelings on the completion of our task. We wish especially to call your attention to the Athletic Section. This part of the book was delayed somewhat, but due to energy of Walter Bell, who took over the job on a last minute call, we have a section of which Dumb may be justly proud. We truly thank him for consenting to take the job. To Mrs. McKennon, our esteemed Librarian, goes all the praise for our feature section, The History of The Annex. Mrs. McKennon planned and wrote the entire section, and mere words of thanks can- not show our appreciation in doing this for us. Mr. Logan, with painstaking care, gave the management the dope on the financial status of the book in the way of paid and unpaid blanket taxes, and Miss Neas was ever willing to give any information that would be of use to the staff. To Noreen Dunn goes the major portion of the credit for attrac- tive appearance of the Kodak panels. To all of the above mentioned we will ever owe a debt of gratitude. However, if it is our privilege to offer a suggestion, and we feel that it is, we would not only suggest, but plead with the student body as a whole and the staff in particular to cooperate with the editor and manager in making the 1926 Sou ' wester an easier task. Concerning our own bo ok. We have worked on it; we have put it out as best we could, and with these thoughts in mind we present to you the 1925 Sou ' wester without apology. iTHE -SO NAMES AND ADDRESSES NAMES AND ADDRESSES NAMES AND ADDRESSES WHEN in after years you turn through the pages of this Sou ' wester, the class history of Southwestern ' s iq2 -2$ school year, and the many photographs recall to your memory the faces of old friends and acquaintances, may this familiar slogan, The Sign of Good Clothes, that has appeared in all your college publications, again come to mind, and your friends and supporters at this store be remembered by you as the store that features the newest of College styles while they are new.

Andrews, Streetman, Logue Mobley, Counsel Jinked Together In Service ' I TIE purpose of education is service, and we require an education in order to be able to render higher service. The great educational fac- tors are: The Church — Through its ministers. The School — Through its teachers. The Newspaper — Through its editors. These are not all the educational mediums, but they are the most unselfish, for the men and women engaged in these pursuits get their greatest reward through service. In a modest way the telephone is an educational factor, and it is our greatest pleasure to serve adequately.
