Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1933 volume:

Th£ Xz:rit7i7l£r The Scribbler John cotillon defined a liberal education as “that which fits a man to perform justly, skillfully, and magnanimously all the offices, both private and public, of peace and war.” (TW Published by the Senior Qlass of the Spartanburg Stfigh School Spartanburg, S. C. “L’cZAllegro” and U(jl Tenseroso,” eflCib ton’s companion poems, comprise a series of little pictures unified by the sentiment behind each. hey represent two moods, both of which We have all experienced. t-tShecarefree merriment of L’cAllegro sought mirth and companionship; the seriousness of 11 ‘Tenseroso sought solitude and study. Jn our school days We have had times of gaiety ai.d times of thoughtfulness, and We have been broadened by both, he purpose of this volume is to preserve the memory of these happy experiences. t he combination of cheerfulness and of seriousness is indispensable to happiness and development of character. eftCiss efMadge ‘Ttydd our instructor and friend, possesses the jovial nature of cfMilton’s “L’cAllegro” and the thoughtful seriousness of his U(Jl Tenseroso.” SKer blithe and cheerful disposition has brightened for us the hours spent in her classroom. SKer sympathetic understanding has guided us in our intellectual pursuits. ®o her we affectionately dedicate this volume of c(5he Scribbler. Th£ ziritztzl r Alma Mater On through years of fame and glory. Shrined in memories new and old, Proudly stands our Alma Mater, Loved by hearts as pure as gold. Mingled with a true devotion, Thoughts of love shall ever be In our hearts, dear Alma Mater, As we sing our praise of thee. On through life thy spirit lingers, Guiding us where’er we be: Loyal hearts will always echo “Alma Mater, hail to thee!” Chorus May thy motto always guide us, “Fac cl spera” must prevail! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Dear old Spartan High School, hail! “-----let my due feet never jail To ualk the studious cloister s pale. Il Pknskroso. The School Five let my lamp, at midnight hour.

Il Penseroso. c(S)he (glasses Seven One summit’s reached; its pointed height Obscured the path oj coming days; The higher hills, the broader ways Were hidden from our eager sight. We climbed the hillside hand in hand. Together saw the brightening morn. Rejoiced, as over flower and thorn We passed, a hopeful, happy band. We pause and scan with eager eyes The Future, misty yet, and dim, The silver pathway, bright and thin, That through the checkered valley lies. Mayhap some, seeking fame’s increase, Will scale yon mountain’s gleaming peak, Ambition’s height, while others seek A path through wooded vales of Peace. Perchance with us is one alone Who has, to illumine secrets dark, The lamp of Genius, whose sacred spark Will show him things to men unknown. And some will travel rocky dells With briars and cruel-fingered brush— Some walk by rippling streamlet’s hush Where melancholy music dwells. Comrades, Godspeed! Now heed the sound.

Eagerly we, the freshman class of Spartanburg High School, faced the day ahead. More than four hundred of us started out on the great adventure, the quest for knowledge. The sky was cloudless as we first bent to our labors. Some sang at their work, exuberant to be setting forth upon such an adventure; others, heedless of the importance of their tasks, idled from the very first. Many of us joined the Literary Society and took great interest in the work. Mr. Dobson, one of the foremen, organized an orchestra, of which we became very proud. As the morning wore on, threatening, malignant clouds gathered close in the sky, and a mad storm descended upon us in all its fury. Our first dread—examinations—poured down upon us. Dauntless, we pushed forward working in spite of the harsh opposition, and at length we mastered the toilsome burdens set forth'by our taskmasters. Then our efforts were rewarded by a well-deserved rest period. After this short but pleasant vacation we returned to our work more determined than ever to satisfy our foremen and to bind our knowledge into substantial sheaves. Some of us were more ambitious than others, and these were they who did admirable work in other fields. In football we remained unbeaten save for one game, lost to G. M. A. by a close score. That year we made history for our school—we beat GafTney’s eleven for the first time in eight years. In basketball we became the South Atlantic Champions. In track we took first place in the Big Ten meet. Those of us whose talents lay in other fields worked vigorously to accomplish what best we might for our school. A number of plays were presented, among them comedies, tragedies, a French Play, and some Latin plays. We grew quite proud of our accomplishments for that year. At the commencement of the Senior Class we sang in chorus, and w'e were quite impressed with the beauty of the exercises. We. too. longed for the time when we would get our diplomas. Mid-day arrived, and again we enjoyed a brief vacation. In the afternoon of our high school career, as we entered the Junior Class, we undertook more ponderous tasks. More diligently we toiled, and in wider fields, seeking that ever-distant knowledge which we knew must be acquired ere the dawn of the morrow. Hopefully we surveyed our bits of knowledge already gathered. Alas! It was all too little! Could we obtain enough? Were we willing to pay the price? We kept earnestly toiling hour by hour. Some who were very diligent were sent to Greenville in the Big Ten to vie with others in the quest for knowledge. Our school made a very fine showing, taking first place in many of the contests, both mental and physical. The rest of us toiled at home, and it seemed to us that the day would never end and that we would never finish our hard labors. Alas! It could never come about for all of us; “many a youth and many a maid” lingered to “dance in the checkered shade,” to sip the “spicy nut-brown ale.” Those who were more “sober, steadfast, and demure” realized that the “vain, deluding joys, the brood of folly,” must be left behind. There were things to accomplish, tasks Th± Xzirit7t7l r to be done. In, spite of dim shadows, as the evening approached, we bent to those things which we had to do and finally reached that hoped-for-period—that state of Seniority which should soon bring to us a new day. 0 cruel Fate! 0 hapless we, who in our ignorance had thought maturity bliss! How could we have known what was in store for us? “The sun had stretched out all the hills,” for the twilight of the day had come. Still we toiled, for our tasks were greater than those attempted heretofore. We became State Champions in football again; we made a fine record in basketball; and we took first place in the State Meet in track. We came in from the fields; we lighted our lamps and pored studiously over all our hooks “to unfold what worlds or what vast regions hold the immortal mind.” A few more plays were given; a wedding ceremony of prime importance took place; a musicale was presented by a large group of us; then we settled hack to study once again. Though weary with toiling in our thirst for knowledge, we do not cease seeking until the end. Almost regretfully w'e don our caps and gowns. Today is over; our task is done. Can we do the chores of tomorrow better? We sigh and wish that we could live the day over again, but “tomorrow to fresh woods, and pastures new.” EVIILlt ATTAWAY EDWIN KINARD Forty-six JhA ziritztzl r Prophecy of Senior Class of 1933 Since life is just one jig-saw puzzle after another, let us now borrow from “Old Man Future’’ the 251 -piece jigsaw puzzle of the Senior Class of 1933.

GRACE BEACHAM CHARLES AMOS Forty-eight 11 J11 n — Th£ ziritzizl r Last Will and Testament We, the Class of 1933 of Spartanburg High School, being of sound mind and poor judgment and realizing that our days in our beloved Alma Mater are limited, do make, publish, and declare our last will and testament as follows: ITEM 1 To the Faculty: 1. To Mrs. Evans we leave the suggestion that she make a senate chamber of her room and appoint Bernard (Catiline) Wall as chief orator. 2. To Professor Frost the Senior French students recommend that he describe his favorite p dure shows a trifle more graphically so that the class of 34 may save money for other amusements. 3. To Professors Frost. Otts, Carrington, and Wideman, we bequeath the admonition that they follow the wise example set them by Mr. Wilson. 4. To Miss Madge Rudd we leave the suggestion that she use to the fullest extent her “Walter Winchell” powers of discovering what has happened and what will happen in study hall. 5. We bequeath our regrets to our unselfish and long-suffering principal, Mr. Jenkins, for our share of the trouble that is causing his fast increasing baldness. ITEM II To the Classes: 1. To the retiring Seniors we leave all the causes, including shorter lessons and longer holidays, more pep meetings and less class hours, and other privileges for which we have so gallantly fought, to be carried on to a finish. 2. To the Sophomores we leave all of the wisdom that they thought they had with the earnest request that they make good use of it in Mis Begg s French (.lass. 3. To the Freshmen we leave the great and honorable privilege of becoming some day Seniors, if they by any chance pass Miss Tennent's Algebra and Geometry. 4. All the knowledge that the present Senior Class has been unable to grasp in Miss Brice’s History Class is bequeathed to any students who have the astounding ability to comprehend. ITEM III Personal bequeaths: 1. John Hughston leaves his inspired Latin ability to Billy Morgan. 2. Cassie (Casey) Smith bequeaths her queenly dignity to Jean Graham. 3. Grace Beacham reluctantly leaves her valued collection of tin foil. Old Gold and Blacks, and chewing-gum to Nan Tinsley. 4. Ed Brown leaves his lady-killing qualities to J. H. Mitchell. 5.

Ned Joyce leaves his basketball ability to Denny Hendrix. 8. Marion Beacham leaves his manly and “grown-up appearance to the entire Freshman Class, hoping that they will not abuse it. 9. Louisa Lanham tearfully leaves a box of Ovaltine to whoever chooses to sleep in Physics Class. 10. Ruth Henry desires to keep her Senior dignity, but she leaves with the tenth grade the hope of acquiring some dignity of the same pattern. (Because of the depression we have nothing further to leave.) Signed, sealed, declared, and published by the Class of 1933 as its La t Will and Testament.

R. Dobson and Gilbert Cox. Mr. Dobson is a very versatile coach; he turns out not only unusual football and basketball teams, but also excellent track and gymnastic squads, tennis, golf, and swimming teams. This is easily explained by his extensive knowledge of every sport and his ability to bring out the best in a boy. While Mr. Dobson coaches all of the varsity squads, Mr. Cox takes charge of the “B' teams and a few of the minor sports. He drills his boys in fundamentals and fits them for varsity work the following year. His liB” basketball team showed the results of his coaching by dropping only a few games in the long schedule.

This year the track team had the most successful season in a long time, winning the State Meet in Columbia, the Big Ten Meet in Greenville, the District Meet and lesser meets with high schools and college freshmen. While we had many good track men in Herring. McCall, Tinsley, Hall, Splawn, Sanders, Hicks, Neal, Prince, and Bost, the credit of winning the State Meet goes to Rupert Scott, the best track man ever turned out at Spartan High. He broke three state records and scored fifteen of the thirty-three points for his team. The records he broke were the hundred and two-twenty dashes and the shot put. He will be missed next year, but Mr. Dobson can be depended upon to build up another fine squad. JONH I). SMITH Manager S. H. S. TRACK TEAM Sixty-seven JhA zintztzl r GOLF TEAM Sixty-eight nil — TENNIS TEAM Th Szn WAr Girls’ Athletics Although the girls’ teams do not compete with teams of other schools, there are class teams in each sport, and competition is kept alive by the rivalry of the classes. The eleventh grade, showing its four years of training and experience, triumphed over the eighth grade in the basketball championship, played off before the whole school. Both teams showed the effects of fine training. If the freshmen had had more experience, it would have been a closer game. The Seniors also came out on top in the volley ball and tennis playoffs. The ninth and tenth grades had many excellent athletes, although they lacked the necessary team work, which, no doubt, they will develop before they MISS MILDRED RUDD. Coach graduate. This year many girls’ teams are being entered in the Big Ten Meet, and each girl has worked hard to bring her school the victory. The events they will enter are: baseball, volley ball, tennis, golf, swimming, horseshoe-pitching, and tumbling. Miss Rudd wishes to thank each girl in the department for her co-operation throughout the year.
