A. lVl. Allen, an athlete supreme, was chosen as president to guide the Olympians to their destiny. Colon Brown, a four-letter man, was chosen as vice-president, Robert Cray, an cutstancling athlete, orator and debater, was chosen secretary. The entire membership, pledging their loyalty and allegiance, set victory as their goal. To mal-te the better best has been our watchword, and although out scored by a few points on the first Rally Day, the Olympians expect to come back strong and strut their stuff in the spring Rally Day. Yes sir, we will beat them, No sir, we won't cheat them, Yes sir, we will win Rally Day. When that Rally Day is o'er, Those Laniers will feel so sore For they're going to lose the '28, We feel sorry for those simps For they cannot beat the Olymps. Philomathean Society Dear Edna, It was nice of you to remember your old society with a telegram on Rally Day and if we could tell you all the good things in a return telegram, it would have been forthcoming, but we coulcln't---can't even do it in a letter. Rejoice with us! We won overwhelmingly in the platform events. But how could we help it? Who could beat Louise an-d Virginia when it comes to reading and story-telling? What could be sweeter than our quartette composed of Virginia, Etta Lee, Ruth, and Lillian, singing, Sing me to Sleepu? You ought to have seen our stunt. The subject was, The Best Reasons for the Existance of an Agricultural High School. Lessie Gilliland was the leader so, of course, we won that. I am not going to say much about the events in athletics. There is a reason. Our heels just wouldrft work and the fleety Athenians just walked right off with most of il'l0SC points. We hope next time to be able to get better cooperation between our heads and heels for we just must have that '28, As a whole the club this year is full of energy, enthusiasm, and pep. I am inclosing a copy of the club song which won and which tells for itself the story better than I can tell it. All your old club friends wish to be remembered to you. Come to see us. Lovingly yours, Margaret. S. A. H. S., Saturday. N - 3 Z c V i , ff E E 2 I' 5 A: K. xl, NK' X x , 5 7 f X.. ,Ayn x f X 'f'X fx xf'KfrN' il Z . N'-X-fx f-Diri N' tf- N'N'N'- 1

mi n llll IllI ' t r ET osncc if s Athenian Society and Lanier Society HAT is in a name? Well let us investigate. Athens was the glory of Greece. The Athenians were strong in intellect, agile of limb, and beauti- ful of form. They were humble in victory and strong in defeat. Sidney Lanier was one of the South's greatest men. He was teacher, soldier. musician and poet. The Athenian and Lanier societies are chips off the old blocks, proving by their records that there is something in a name. They are brother and sister societies bound together by Rally Day. Cn the last Rally Day these two societies won enough points, separately and jointly, to defeat the mighty Olympians and the vers- atile Philomatheans. Encouraged by the wonderful showing, the Athenians and Laniers are determined to put up a stronger fight and to win the honors of the year. The spirit, pep and vim manifested on the last Rally Day shall not die out, but will become greater in every way, reaching the climax on the next Rally Day. Watch the Athenians Watch the Laniers For we're going to win that '28 banner this year We work together We never sever And we always play the game fair and square to The last. Every year when Rally comes We're always out to win. When the score is counted now We'll have the points all in. Watch the Athenians Watch the Laniers For we're going to win the '28 banner this year. Fight 'em hard, 'Theniansl Fight 'em hard, Laniers! 4 5 : 3 2 -1 , ,- - f 5 4 4 S1 ' - r we 5 1 2 2 tv X K-XA X!-X l E f Q VGA, fx ff'N 'N Nfks' N91 Zi X- . . xi-X-fx i--NEA N' Nr- NGN'-
