Clearer, surer, rings the story, Christ, our Brother-God ftlost High! ' Through earth ' s vapors sweeps the glory, Wrong, injustice, sin must die. For the warfare train us. Father, God of battles. God of might; That no mists of Hell may gather, Darken, nor obscure, the Right. Gird our souls with Thy compassion, Purge our minds with fire divine; Light of Light, Truth Incarnate, Make our lives and thoughts like Thine. 5 SEWANEE S MEMORIAL Intjamut iFtrkltn iFtmtnj WITH DEEP AFFECTION AND LASTING GRATI- TUDE, the 1923 Cap and Gown is dedi- cated TO HIM WHO HAS SERVED SEWANEE WELL, OUR IDEAL VICE-CHANCELLOR B. F. FINNEY - oreworc THE old Sewanee is passing, and in its place has come the new. With the Endowment has come the highway. Se- wanee is no longer isolated as in past years. She has lost some of her aloofness; she is now in contact with the affairs of the world. And with the Highway other democratizing forces have come. Student waiters have been introduced; the gate be- tween the village and the University has been taken down. Social work has begun. A new school is being planned. The Class of 1923 has passed through this period. Its members came to the Mountain in time to glimpse the Old Sewanee — muddy streets, inefficient water supply, huge lumbering hacks; a quaint old town out of the noise and bustle of the world. The new- comers were told the glorious Sewanee traditions, and in the glamor of it all, they forgot its backwardness and loved her for these very things. Then came the transition. Improvements were made, a great highway constructed, the gate taken down. Automobiles, so long a rarity, became common. Sewanee was changing. The Endowment was raised. And now there is a New Sewanee. No longer is she looking to the past, but to the future. She feels there are great days ahead. To some who have grown to love her old aloofness, the changes bring tears. To others, who are modern, the changes bring joy. Both must accept them. They have come. Behold the New Sewanee! Board, of Regents Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, S.T.D. New York, N. Y.

Some twenty years ago a group of Sewanee students, headed by W. A. Percy, F. E. Dabney, D. T. Tucker, and John Kushaw, entertained the idea of forming a society to further an interest in writing and literature. Dr. John Bell Henneman, of the English Department, recognizing the possibilities of such an organization, was an enthusiastic sponsor, and Dr. Walter Montgomery, of the S. M. A. faculty, gave helpful advice and co-operation. A society founded and guided by such men could not fail. It was a distinct success from the very beginning. Shortly after the founding of Sopherim, similar societies were founded at Vander bilt, the University of Georgia, and Randolph-Macon. In 1906, our Sopherim of Sewanee, Calumet Club, of Vanderbilt, Senior Round Table, of Georgia, and Ran- dolph-Macon ' s society combined and founded the Sigma Upsilon Literary Fraternity, having as its aim the binding together of literary clubs in the UJnited States as a means to promote literary welfare in general. Today, Sigma LTpsilon is comprised of twenty five chapters, and applications for charters are continually being received. Sopherim (in Sewanee) is a gownsmen organization, drawing its members from the Junior and Senior Classes of the Academic Department, and from the Graduate Schools. Sopherim is an honor organization in that only men of recognized literary talent (or promise) are considered for membership. Meetings are held bi-weekly, and the members endeavor to uphold the standard of its founders, intellectually and socially, for the feast of letters closes with a gathering at the festive board. Sopherim can justly be proud of the men she has given to the literary world and to other fields of endeavor. Among these we may name William Alexander Percy, who is, perhaps, the most noted of our Southern poets. 97 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 Sewanee Scholarship Society An Honor Scholarship Fraternity Petitioning Phi Beta Kappa.

So hear ye, worthy brothers and others, of the prowess and scintillating accomplishments of the distinguished wearers of the Maltese Cross. For by their fruits ye shall know them . W. Meade Brown : Poet, philosopher, student, and perfect lover. William Boone Nauts: Tabby II. Homely, but pure; stupid, but faithful. E. K. Metcalf: The gumshoe of the mountain. A blushing violet, always brim- ming with secrets. William Cooke: Big Boy Bill. With a face like a full moon and a chin like a rolling sea. Extremely loquacious. Maybe you think he ' s not, but he is. Virgil George Miller: The big blonde athlete , of failing health. Ever living in an eternal strain. The complaint of a lover rebuked. Chester Melcher: The damn Yankee. Never hath man loved salvation more than he loves a dime. Bickers E. : Death contemporary of Rodolph Valentino. Tall, handsome, and garlic-loving. Bose Stuckev: Sturdy and ever conscientious, slow to anger and thought. Dancer de luxe. The Rover Boys : Childishly simple and coquettish. Edwin R. Holmes: Little Boy Blue. Pat Yates: Militaristic of pose, and a countenance as simple as a May morn. Lastly of this trio, Reed McClain Dearing: Oh, the sad-faced sheik! He wandered lonely as a cloud. Now we come to that beautiful institution, a verdant field of freshmen: Cleve Wilcoxen : Ignorance. Garnett Andrews, Jr.: Giddiness. Walter Jervey: Pensiveness. Mem Webb: Indolence. Dickie Nauts: Inclemency. W. C. Bickers: Experience. Thus, by their fruits we know them . -£: :£,■£ . THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 Sigma Alpha Epsilon jHE motion for a truth party was passed. Three brothers were chosen to capsule the outstanding faults of every Tenn. Omega Sig Alph into a few short lines and to submit the same to the chapter at the close of the following meeting. The appointed hour arrived. One brother arose, holding in his hand a small S Hi ??-. pasteboard box containing bits of folded paper. He began to read, slip by slip, (C3)i ==£S §]J the cold truths which had been compounded by the heartless triumvirate. i. Bish Sessums: Be as ready to pay thy debts as thou art to make them. Have as much enthusiasm o- r er the fulfilling of a duty as thou hast at the time thou acceptest a responsibility. Cursed be the name of Denver that thou hast visited ; may the name of no other place ever flow so frequently from thy tongue. Remember t ' was wise Emerson who said that superlatives will put any drawing room to flight . 2. Horse Nelson : Spend not ALL thy allowance for stationery, nor all thy time in search of sweet nothings to inscribe thereon. Tell us truly, dost thou own shares in the Sewanee- Atlanta Railroad ? 3. Butterfly Evans: A good advocate of an aeroplane route between the Mountain and Murfreesboro. Let no fair one ' s indifference bend thy back. Burden thy mind more with thoughts for others than with baseball scores, and take heed lest thou dost squander thy inheritance upon empty football dope . 4. Rooster Cobbs: Since thou hast discovered thy spurs, good ' Ty ' , and hath caused such a panic upon the floor of the Union, pray be not misled by that thou keep ' st the thought of ' skirts ' upon thy mind eternally. Between the fair sex and the responsibilities of a head-waitership we fear for thy mental balance . 5. Champ Moore: Oh, pink cheeked lover of the festive board, the old Greek philosopher claimed that water, air, and fire were the primary elements, NOT soup, beef, and cream . Lift those cheeks, that Mr. Mellins envies, from behind that high-heaped plate, and arise from such a foggy dream . 6. Milly Snowdek: It will suffice for thee to answer one question: ' What didst thou in Nashville when His Honor, Dugan the Editor, sent thee to procure advertisements for the Cap and Gown ? Judging from results, it does but seem that thou didst canvass the town on Sunday at 3 a.m. 7. Guy Lyman : Behold thy heart is ' Baird ' to the eyes of all the world ! Thou didst render it so after the Thanksgiving dances, when, in deliberate defiance of the advice of friends and the authority of professors, thou didst race madly to Nashville in hot pursuit of romance. When thou wert besieging the heart of this fair lady thou shouldst have considered whether she had ' Rather ' or not, for thus thou couldst have saved thyself much embarrassment . 8. Ioway Clarke: It doth gripe the souls of the members of one chapter to be told how those of another run their affairs. Forsake the rolling R — R — R ' s, we beseech thee, and think not that ' Damn Yank ' is an honorary title . 9. Pinky Kent: Oh, fiery-headed ' cajean ' from the Ku Klux land, why dost thou allow each breaking day to find thee in such repulsive humors? Even like unto an enraged bear art thou at the breakfast table, expecting waiters to drop their trays upon thy arrival and to forsake all other students to serve thee only. Truly, others breathe besides thyself. The hedge thou didst promise to the chapter thy freshman year — where, oh where can it be ? 10. Flop Millard: Husky Texan, many were thy chances to obtain collegiate prominence until dumb students led thee to believe that biting the ears off Vanderbilt drunkards marked the culmination of a Sewanee man ' s fame. Remember that those who expectorate in the presence ol others must not expect to rate highly in their opinions. Prithee! release thyself from that plug of ' Brown ' s Mule ' . 11. Pint Guerry: Glancing at thee we immediately realize that ' we are such stuff as dreams are made of. Tell us, brother to brothers, is it by fair means or fowl that thou straweth the ' profs ' to grant thee 90 ' s? Surely a mind crammed with such dizzy dreams could not earn them. Before thy graduation we beg thee to show us one spark of original thought . 12. Box-jaw Jones: Devoted sponsor of Brooks Brothers, arrest thy thoughts from fash- ion ' s latest curves and lend thy attention to a right angled face that would cause a panic among the most tolerant of judges. Take warning, lest in thy efforts to stand erect thy head and heels meet . 13. Worthless Whatley and Burrhead Meadows: Sleep should be regarded as a re- ward for labor, not as a life calling. Because the lead market hath fallen of late is no reason why ye should try to get a corner on it. Ye both have already more than ye can carry . 14. Carefree Goats, One and All: Heed the voice of experienced brothers: because thy number is many thou shalt suffer much ' horsing ' from fellow fraternity men, but realize that our fault lies not in bidding 19 men, but in pledging 18 of them . 113 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 19 S€WAN€e 23 SIGMA ALPhACPSILOM Pit ?

Its a bunch of boys that thinks you looks lonesome and need money badly and they go over to th house after dinner and Ed Claytor, Squee-Gee, Heinie Powers ( not a German ) , and a lanky thing who calls himself Francis Hopkinson Smith IV play Rumm? and an athlete called Rush sometimes plays and smokes Camels a lot. Th:n Cooshie a kid with an impedament in his speech, with P. P. (thats Eds brother) and a boy named Dic ' iey play pool upstairs. Then theres one who is always dancing around in th: vacant end of the room by himself like his feet hurt him. There ' s two of ' em named Wocdley and Minge who ccme from a fast town in Louisiana, and a foureyed bey from the hills called Doc play poker all night, and all of them lose heavily. Then theres a boy named Moses, not a lawgiver, but just thinks he is, who asks you every time he comes over to the house. He asks have ya got any more money? and he is alwavs refused. Then theres a boy up here calld Wildflower Willie who aint got much hair on his head and not much in it that is sense. Then there is a Texas child who aint too cute and, ma, I think youd question him, he is named Mercerized Norman Darnit. Theres a boy with a baby name who is a baby named Doodlo who plays setback with Graham ( thats the boy whose brother is not a German, ) , Theres a little simp also in there with us and he is called Buddy Glenn and he comes from south Carolina along with a tow headed kid called Scotty. They say North Carolina is a valley between two mountains of conceit. We have some boys who come over every Saturday Night when we have a feed and are called aluminum they are Satterlee and Coach Nick. Then theres a man who teaches French and cuts wood lots in his back yard and comes over always when we have a feed. I have indeavored dear ma to give you facts which would make you cognizant with the workings of a fraternity but these boys do give a dance on Easter and take up the rug (not rugs) and push back the two tables and the three chairs and borrow a piano and then they dance. A fraternity is a wonderful thing ma, but is mighty damn expensive. Would you please send me a check for $125.00 for an assessment they come real olten they are for feeds, ' ' lour loving and colegiate son. P.S. — Dont forget the check and two decks of cards. I forgot a boy named Doty Edgar from Texas but he wasnt so very important anyway. 118 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 Tennessee Chapter of Phi Delta Theta Chapter Membership In Facilitate G. H. Clarke H. M.

' ■ the circle of braves. The peace pipe oi ' old Dclauta Lodge begins its journey ' round The fire crackHS, lighting up the sombre faces of the wearers of the square badge. With slow movement, and thoughtful, old man Jack Cobb, ripe in age, made wise through experience, lights the pipe. Old and wrinkled student of Theology lit- is, and much else. Noted tor his pious look (observe opposite page and photograph). he completely paralyzes you with confidence in most anything. Each seven days ht rails on ye congregation in the borough of Winchester, filling hearts with awe and fear. The pipe passes to Wharton, affiliate from Beta Xi . hence the monicker. Of him who roareth continually with a loud voice, we say: Theolog, ex-soldier, mighty and efficient slinger of the great bull, who holds you spellbound while he discourses at length about a girl from Detroit and everything in general. Now Murray grasps the pi] s and puts. Murray, Decherdite, fooler with the mysterious radio, shover of the dilapidated Studebaker, and resembk r of the Western cowboy. (P. S. — Reader of matrimonial journals.) And the pipe passes to Wilson — Snooks , who goeth forth to battle with Winchester jellies , and slinketh back to his lair to play proctor at Wicks. He is a senior, else «.e would aspire to the office of chief of detectives for 1H24. So the pipe goes ' round. Minor — Alcorn! Imbiber of Hot Spirits and lover of hot ham and eggs .

Ned Gee, a disillusioned young swain from the wheat fields of Kansas, had just entered the Fiji hut and addressed these teasing remarks to the group seated in a semicircle before a large open fire. I don ' t see why I can ' t hit once in a while myself , complained his indolent roommate and shadow, who incidentally is achieving widespread renown as an im- personator of the immortal Rip van Winkle. You don ' t? That seems rather obvious to me , said Sam Simpson, casually putting O, Is He Dumb ? on the Victrola. Good gracious, Craighill, did you hear that? Why that even made me mad , volunteered Doc Beatty, superficially enraged that a fellow freshman should attempt to become witty at the expense of a sophomore. But preferring insult to undue physical exertion, Diz overlooked the breach. However, impertinence among Neophytes is neither singular nor isolated, and for some reason Shaw, who had been passively enjoying his pseudo-Dunhill and leaning against the mantle, was next victimized. Fate seems to have had some strangely narcotic effect on the village of Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Wake up, Bill, don ' t sleep all your life . Good night! That ' s your , Fitch. Grab your ankles. Don ' t argue with me . (Sev- eral dull thuds follow.) Why can ' t you freshmen keep quiet for five minutes ? yelled Tommy with presumptious solem- nity and authority. I ' m trying to think . How unusual ! in a ventriloquistic voice. Fresman Patterson, that ' ll have to cost you. Bring me the co al shovel . But important busines advices interrupted, heralded by the senior member of Mitchell Linthicum, Inc. Hev, Tommie, I ' ve just sold another quire of stationery, two pennants, 50 visiting cards, and a memory book. Ship ' em C. O. D. and let Uncle Sam collect for us . Whereupon, even the Nacogdoches Babe forgot that freshmen should be seen and not heard! Are you guys still swindling the student-body? Looks like your conscience would hurt you some time . Say, how do you freshmen rate an opinion on this anyway? Business is business . They ' re always checking somebody . But these remarks from Lance Swift were suggestive rather than preventive, and Simp became spokesman. By the way, Lance, why do they call you the ' Julep Man ' ? Freshman, I thought I told you not to ever say anything about that again, — I ' ll remember that Tuesday night . Aw, Lance, I was just trying to compliment you. That ' s one of the parlor arts, provided she was good looking . Pretty sad excuse, but run over and open the door. McCullough can ' t use the key he stili owes thirty cents for . Why, hello, Major. How are you ? I told you once to call me Roy. Why can ' t you be a good frosh like I used to be ? In a more realistic tale, loquacious Red Williams would have had several shallow say-so ' s long before now, but printer ' s ink is opportunely economical at times. However, this was too great a chance, and his choicest object of derision was at hand. That ' s all right, Simp, he can ' t help it. I mean, I can ' t help it . Roy, I believe Red is horsing you. He even made me mad . Freshman, are you horsing me ? No, sir, you know I wouldn ' t do that . Whereupon, his sophomnrish dignity was deceptively appeased. Let ' s make this meal, it ' s nearly supper time , shouted Ed Tucker, a rather ravenous dieti- tian, and a stampede in the direction of Magnolia ensued. 130 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 Sigma Nu IT is rumored that some two summers ago a Chattanooga debutante told Frog Sanders how big and strong he was . Certainly some form of stimulus aroused his athletic ambitions, for that boy has surely been tickling the pigskin spheroid with a powerful toe for the past two seasons; not only that, but he has proved himself a weight man of ability in Southern track and field meets. Although Frog is an athlete by vocation, he is a musician by avocation, and oft in the stilly night have his touching, yea, patheticc renditions moved all Palmetto to tears. Slim Waring, in face of keen competition, was elected captain of the tea-swilling team; and, ably seconded by his adjutants of the jelly-bean brigade, he has made a howling success of Sewanee ' s rushing social season. Slim also has a penchant for vocal attainment, and he is equally impartial to the Choir and the Glee Club. Will Gunn hails from Decherd, Tennessee, which — as he himself explained it — is the only metropolitan center between Cowan and Tullahoma. He is a devotee of the Terpsichorean art, and everybody says that the way he attracts femininity is simply something shameful. Fraser Johnstone, whose achievements in academic scholarship recently obtained for him election to the Honor Society, was really quite nonplussed the other day when Osc Hardigg told him, You shouldn ' t let your studies interfere with your college education . Perhaps Osc was speaking from experience, or might he not phrase it more happily thus, Don ' t let your Chevrolet interfere with your college education ? MacBain, better known as the Scotchman , has cut quite a figure in intercollegiate debating circles for the past three years (to say nothing of the family circle of a Sewanee professor), and last Commencement he won the Jemison medal for debate. Mac, despite his diminutive stature, has made a berth among the ' varsity cagemen, and he bids fair to show to advantage during the season of ' 23. Henry Singleterry, who resembles a cross between an animated advertisement of Stacomb and the newest Arrow collar poster, has a way with the fair sex that is positively tantalizing. This is not mere suspicion — it is a fact, because the flaxen-haired Floridian told me so himself. The University championship for the absorption of flapjacks has been unanimously awarded to Douglas, the elongated theologian who indulges in a twelve-mile walk ever}- Sabbath morning as an appetizer for Sunday dinner. To attempt to express in mere numbers the quantity of those soggy wisps of Magnolia dough which he consumes in one sitting would be a futile task on the part of ye scribe, — like Bivins ' moustache, it must be seen to be appreciated. Said Bivins is verily of great renown as a Spanish athlete, and his prodigious feats in the hurling of the Mex- ican discus are the despair of his competitors. Dave Price has re-entered school, having attended the Colorado School of Mines last year. He said that he was grieved to refuse the position of consulting engineer with the Standard Oil Co., but rather than to accept so paltry a sinecure, he would return to his academic duties. Willie Willeford, whose forte is debating and orator} 7 , admits being the most eminent of living bridge authorities; he and Frog Sanders are negotiating for a challenge match with Messrs. Hoyle and Elwell at an early date. Ah! He seeketh not after the foolish follies of the irresponsible undergraduate, for his name is Quarles, and he guideth his brethren in the path of the erudite and the learned. At last we come to that inseparable and insufferable pair, Buck Haynes and McQuiddy, who shone together as backfield satellites on the Frosh football squad; and together they have formed The Society for the Propagation and Perpetuation of Rest. As we can personally vouch for the somnambulistic capacities of both the founders, the society ought to be successful in the wooing of Morpheus. Dapper Dan Schwartz, the Kentucky Colonel, who is the proud possessor of a skin you love to touch , says that some are born beautiful, some have beauty thrust upon them, but others acquire beautv. He states that by the manipulation of Marvello Complexion Clay he wil place anyone in the last category for the nominal sum of five dollars. Noe and Wright, who have in common the name Tom and the distinction (or is it so?) of being from the Tarheel State , seem shy and retiring to the casual eye, but in their home town it is reliably reported that they are the most gay and dashing of Lotharios . Bobo Plummer, the Mobile flash, is everlastingly relating to a reluctant bull session the ay it is done in Mobile. 131 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 19 sewANee 23 sioma nu .TT 13 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 Beta Omicron Chapter of Sigma Nu Chapter Membership ; Facilitate Dr. B.

To have at one fell swoop lost such towers of strength as Prude, Conway, Oakes, Sat- terlee, Ben Payne, Kenneth Council, Baird, Bauman, and Skidmore from the previous year ' s letter men, was in itself a blow that opened up yawning gaps both in the line and backfield. And yet the pruning knife was not sated until the one-year rule had taken its toll and barred a wealth of promising material. These two contributing factors unite to explain why the taste of victory never lingered long . Assisted by Herb Stein, all-American lineman from Pitts- burgh, Coach John P. Nicholson was beginning his second year as head coach, with Wild Bill Coughlan, captain of the ' 20 eleven, again at the helm, and the heaviest schedule in many years looming nearer and nearer. A more diligent and conscientious manager than Guy Lyman, veteran cheer leader of three strenuous pigskin seasons, could hardly have been gotten to minister to the wants and needs of the eight letter men who returned. For some reason no initial set-up games were provided by 145 THE CAP AND GOWN 9 2 3 the schedule committee. On October 8th Sewanee undertook an invasion of the East for the first time in the past decade, drawing up in battle array at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, against the Heisman machine. The result was a glorious defeat — beaten in score and numbers, but not in spirit; and Penn knew and will long remember the fight that met their own. Playing their first game of the season, the Tigers were a little unsteady and almost unaccustomed to working together throughout the entire first half, with the result that the Quakers amassed a 20 to o lead. A valiant Purple come- back was the answer. Eleven Tigers crystallized into one football team, and Penn ' s most powerful offensive and fresh- est substitutes could yield but one additional touchdown. In the words of the Nashville T ennessean, the greater number of substitutes was the straw that broke the camel ' s back . Coughlan, Miller, and Saunders were the outstanding stars. Oglethorpe attempted an invasion of the Mountain the following Saturday, to be victimized for the fourth consec- utive year, this time in a 19 to o fashion. But bare figures scarcely even suggest the pluck of the Petrels or the closeness of play. Oglethorpe sported a heavy and at times almost im- penetrable line, with flashes of effective offense. Conse- quently, only one of the Purple scores was made through the line, the other two coming via the atmospheric route. Spectacular and thrilling play, frequent fumbles, and a constant resort to punting by both sides, sum up the annual Sewanee-Alabama classic at Birmingham. As usual, as the .+6 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 S£$il!i ftyft ra iU fe mu BH ■ •- - .• •■■ ; .mem !•. . ft t tai««K aK ' Vj : -r — ■ _ . . v. :■ - ' . — 7 to 7 knot indicates, rivalry between the two teams was keen and play fierce. ' Bama entered the battle some fifteen points the favorite, and it was only consistent fighting and a constant alertness in taking advantage of every Crimson fumble that earned the Tigers that tasty tie, almost as good as victory itself. None less tenacious was the Kentucky Wildcat in his na- tive lair. With the ultimate outcome hanging in the balance until the very closing moments of an extremely bitter strug- gle, Kentucky won for the first time in history a victory over Sewanee on a Lexington gridiron. With both teams pre- senting strong lines, much forward passing was resorted to, Kentucky enjoying an edge there. The final whistle found the relentless Wildcat on the top end of a 7 to o score, with the Purple Tiger clawing at his very vitals under the shadow of the goal posts. Shook played probably his best game of the season. But a 7 to 6 victory of the South Carolina Gamecocks on the following Saturday served to temporarily mitigate the pill of defeat. This was Sewanee ' s first invasion of the Palmetto State since 1902, and one that both victor and victim will long remember, for it was another of those tense strug- gles whose ultimate outcome the referee ' s whistle alone can decide. After his teammates had smashed their way to a touchdown toward the end of the first quarter, Sanders ' s edu- cated toe annexed the single point that later meant victory, H7 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 the plucky Gamecocks attempted to throw a wrench in the whole works by a threatening stand on the Purple 2-yard line. Instead of bucking, Holland tried and missed a drop- kick, and Sewanee punted out of danger. A score of 21 to o tells the tale of the Tiger victory over Birmingham-Southern on Saturday, November 16. Though presenting a heavy front, the Birmingham boys never seriously threatened the Sewanee goal line, and the final score might have been much larger but for the fact that Heinie Powers was missing at quarterback as a result of injuries. Most of the Tiger gains came from long end runs. On to Chattanooga and Down with Tennessee became the battle cry of the Tiger. To conquer the Volunteers and avenge their hopelessly overwhelming and surprising victory of the previous season was our fervent prayer and spur. From the dopester ' s viewpoint, Tennessee had considerable edge this time, but this only inspired the Tiger to greater determination, and a beautiful fight was the result. The Vol- unteers drew first blood within a few minutes after the open- ing whistle by a whirlwind assault on the entire Purple de- fense. Sewanee retaliated with a menacing thrust to the opponent ' s 3-yard line, but the necessary punch for a touch- down fell short. The enemy then uncorked a most baffling system of forward passes, and two additional touchdowns were their contribution. Sewanee scored her lone touchdown in the third quarter, Coughlan bucking over after Thug Murray had blocked a kick. Blood Miller was one of the outstanding stars of the afternoon. 148 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 Turkey Day, Nashville, Commodore meat — for two whole weeks these were the only legitimate subjects of thought or conversation on the Mountain. Vandy had met and con- quered some of the best elevens of the entire country. So the best the Dope could vouchsafe us was a slight frown. But, in spite of it all, secret hopes of violating the victorious atmosphere of the new stadium lurked in the heart of every Tiger. The annual exodus from the Towered City began Wednesday afternoon at 2:50, and Thursday morning found all Nashville in the throes of Purple enthusiasm. Spirit was at its height, and few more impressive parades ever dead- locked a city ' s traffic. Sewanee won the toss and elected to receive. Gibbons returned the kick-off eight yards and made several successive gains to within a few inches of first down. But Powers called for a punt, the play that put the first nail in the Tiger ' s coffin. Sanders, our only punter of an} ' ability, had not started the game, and bad kicking, due to his absence, was directly responsible for the first counter. One touchdown came closely on the heels of the other in the first quarter. After Sanders had kicked out of bounds on Vandy ' s 43-yard line, the Commodores ' far-famed speed merchant, Gil Reece, took matters into his own hands, and in three successive dashes around end planted the oval behind the goal posts. Then, to add insult to injury, in only a few minutes afterward Bomar gathered in a long pass from Captain Kuhn and raced twenty-five yards for a second touchdown. Wakefield booted both goals. Bomar again made himself objectionably con- 149 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 spicuous in the closing moments of the second quarter by in- tercepting a Purple pass that paved the way for the third Lemon and Black touchdown. Kuhn missed goal. Sfcoud Half. — A stiffened, strengthened Tiger machine met the Commodore from the beginning of the second half. Besides holding Vanderbilt to one lone touchdown for the last two quarters, the Tiger eleven also made one threatening attempt to prevent a whitewashed defeat. After having steadily advanced the ball into Vandy ' s territory by a series of vicious line bucks and plunges, Shook caught a pass from Powers on our opponent ' s eight-yard line. Gibbons lost three yards on the next play, and Sanders dropped back for a place- ment kick. It was a tense moment. Many of the spectators cherished secret hopes that the Tiger offensive would continue and achieve a touchdown. But a kick was called. The pig- skin missed its mark by a few inches and our last and onlv opportunity to score became a historical incident, as the ref- eree ' s whistle ended the third quarter. Vandy scored her fourth and final touchdown a few moments later when Waller intercepted a Purple pass on his own 35-yard line, and Gil Reese ploughed through the Sewanee defense for nineteen yards in three tries.

Various other conditions united to dwarf and cripple our prospects. In the first place, not even so much as fraternity basketball had previously been in vogue on the Mountain, and what few ex-prep school players there were among us were completely out of practice and thoroughly rusty at the cage game. Then, too, there was considerable good material in the Freshman Class, but these were ineligible. The fact that basketball practice did not begin in earnest until late in January, after the Christmas holidays, whereas teams of all other colleges practiced and played games throughout the holiday season, was probably the biggest handicap of all, and unless it is gotten around in the future, our cage success in coming years also will suffer. About fifeen men answered the first call to practice, and nine of these — Perry, Miller, Shook, MacBlain, Neville, Bailey, Willey, Nauts, and Harris — were still performing at the end of the season. Of this number, Bailey, at guard, was easily the most experienced and brainy player, with Nauts and Perry trailing on his heels. Miller and Harris, alternating at forward, and Shook, at guard, performed more than creditably, though rather rough at times. Neville was a good left-hander at guard, and both MacBlain and Willey were conscientious and effective workers. ' 53 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 a D a iS4 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 The Track Season of 1922 Mj _WROM the standpoint of actual scores piled up and victories annexed, the track ' season of 1922 was not so successful as had been those of the four or five years immediately preceding. The fact that Bo-peep Skidmore, captain and mainstay of several previous Tiger cinder teams, found it necessary to leave school only a few weeks before track practice commenced, was a terrific blow to his Purple teammates, since Skid was good for first place in both discus and shot put, for a total of ten points, against practically any competition the other Southern colleges had to offer. An additional handicap was the fact that Bill Coughlin, star hurdler, was never able to render his best service in Sewanee ' s behalf, due to frequent and untimely injuries. Upon the withdrawal of Skidmore, Alcorn Minor was elected captain. In order to afford prospective distance men some little advance work-out and practice, Sewanee had sent a cross-country team to Birmingham in December to compete in the invitation meet of the Birmingham Athletic Club. After considerable coaching and training by Coach Nicholson and Mr. Willev, Collins, Horner, Craighill, and Harris were selected from a field of ten or twelve contestants, to represent Sewanee. Neither of these four men was among the tape-breakers at the Birmingham race, but all did perform creditably. Later in the spring both Collins and Horner did good work on the track team in the distance events. A dual meet with Bo McMillan ' s Praying Colonels from Centre during Easter week officially opened the Tiger season of 1922. Sewanee contested vigorously in every event, but got only the short end of a 59-50 count. Bill Coughlin was out with a pulled tendon, acting in the capacity of field judge. In the first event of the afternoon, Berryman, the Centre flash, nosed out Lance Minor by a couple of inches in the 100-yard dash, and the order of Centre first, Sewanee second, continued until Captain AI Minor cleared the bar for an easy first place in the pole vault. In all, Centre won some ten first places, but Sewanee took most of the second place honors. Next came the meet with Georgia Tech, which also went against the Tigers by an 80 to 32 count. During the first six or more events each team gave promise of a much closer score, the odds at that time being 28 to 26 in Tech ' s favor. Then it was that Bill Coughlin pulled a tendon in the high hurdle race, and, though he limped his way to a first place in this event, he was forced to retire from the field at the finish. Blood Miller lost the discus by three inches, and could have easily taken first place in the shot put had he showed the same form as in the Centre meet. By winning the S. I. A. A. championship meet, held at New Orleans May 6, L. S. U. strengthened her claim to one of the South ' s most coveted athletic trophies — the big silver loving cup, which will become the permanent property of the first team to win it three times. Sewanee and L. S. U. now have two legs each on this cup. A dual meet with the proverbial and ancient enemy, Vanderbilt, closed the season. In a cloud- burst of rain, that imparted an aquatic flavor and aspect to what otherwise might have been a track meet, Vanderbilt managed for ten first places to four for Sewanee, and eight second places to six for the Purple, winning the meet in 74 to 38 fashion. The dashes were close, with Vandy nosing out by a hair ' s breadth for first place, and the distance runs went to the Commodore, with little or no competition. Sewanee took all the places in the weight events except first place in the discus. 155 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 Track, 1923 j(WO dual meets, one with the jo isjaAjiiQ Florida and one with Georgia Tech, the Tech relays, and the S. I. A. A. championship meet, comprised the track menu of the 1923 Tigers. Coach Nicholson, after having served as track coach for nine years, and as head coach for two of those years, was beginning his last year as a Purple mentor, and, crippled as he was by the loss of some of the best material of the 1922 team, he achieved astonishing results w ith the material at hand. True, his men dropped both of their dual meets, but even in defeat they went down fighting, and deserve much credit for the showing made. Considerable improvement was shown as the season progressed, and the Tigers closed the season in impressive fashion by taking second place in the S. I. A. A. championship meet. Captain-elect Baird and Lance Minor, our best bets in the sprints, were ineligible throughout the spring for scholastic reasons, and their shoes were extremely hard to fill. Alcorn Minor, captain of the ' 22 track team, and one of the best pole vaulters in the South, was also missing from the Mountain. In addition to these serious and telling losses, much good material among the Freshman Class was barred by the one-year rule, which is especially drastic in the case of the small college of Sewanee ' s type. Virgil ( Blood ) Miller, of football fame, and an effective and d ependable man in the weight events, was elected captain to succeed Pete Baird. The first meet came on April 14th, with the University of Florida. Ten Tigers made the trip to Gainesville and returned to their Mountain lair without the customary bacon, due chiefly to the maneuvers of the Florida phenomenon, Ark Newton. Only twenty-one points separated the final scores of Sewanee and Florida, and this gentleman had been responsible for twenty-seven points by himself, taking first places in the 100-yarc dash, pole vault, broad jump, and high jump; second place in the discus and javelin; and third place in the shot put. Frog Sanders bore the brunt of the Tiger attack with a contribution of fifteen points. Frog won first place in all three events in which he was entered — the shot put, the javelin, and discus throws — and displayed rare form and ability. Blood Miller took second place in the shot put and third place in the discus. Tommy Tomlinson showed beautiful form in the hurdles and won both in easy fashion. Florida won the meet by a score of 72 to 51. On Saturday, April 21, the Tornado track team triumphed over the Tigers for the second con- secutive year in Atlanta by a 79 to 33 tune. The Yellow Jackets were unusually strong in both the track and field events, and consequently had things pretty much their way most of the afternoon. By taking first place in two out of the three events in which he was entered, the shot put and discus, together with a second place in the javelin. Frog Sanders, of Sewanee. carried off indi- vidual scoring honors with a total of thirteen points to his credit. Sewanee took first place in only three events — the 120-yard high hurdles, the discus, and the shot put. On the Saturday following Georgia Tech were hosts at the first of the annual Tech Relays, an invitation meet modeled after the famous relays held annually at Philadelphia. Coach Nick did not enter the Sewanee track team, but took down several of his best cinder athletes, among them being Tomlinson, Harris. Sanders. Miller, and Freshman Gooch. Mississippi A. and M. College easily copped first place, with Tech a poor second. Gooch, of Sewanee, tied for first place in the high jump, and the Tigers also annexed one second and one third place. During Friday and Saturday, May 11 and 12, Sewanee had the privilege of being host to the annual S. I. A. A. championship meet for the second time in the past three years. As many of the larger colleges have dropped out of the S. I. A. A., the meet was much different in aspect and array from those of former years, though there were still a large number of A-l athletes present to com- pete. Four colleges only — Vanderbilt, Center, Georgetown, and Sewanee — were represented, and all four of these entered complete teams. Vanderbilt emerged victor, amassing a total score of 64 Va points, with a safe margin of 14% points over her closest competitorj Sewanee. Centre came third, with 37 2, and Georgetown fourth, with 10 points. Out of a field of fifty competing athletes, Berry- man, of Centre, carried off high point scoring honors by taking first places in the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash, and second place in the 4 4 0-yard dash. Sewanee completely outclassed all her opponents in the hurdles, and ' Gene Harris and Tomlinson won first and second place, respectively, in both the high and low hurdles. In the weights, Sanders and Miller did excellent work for the Purple. Frog took first place in the discus, second place in the javelin, and third place In the shot, while Blood Miller took first place in the shot put, second in the high jump, and third in the discus. In reviewing the season as a whole, we see many reversals and defeats, but it is-, nevertheless, one lull of hope for 1924. Tommy Tomlinson. crack Tiger hurdler, is the only loss that will be sustained by the 1923 track team via the graduation route, and with the rest of the team intact, with Lance Minor and Pete Baird again eligible in the sprints, with the large amount of good material that the 1923 freshman team will supply, there is no end to hopeful prophesying for 1924. . 5 6 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 .4-ALL.t .. 157 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 A1RV oE5? i 5 s THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 BtwatinB EtgJjt 161 THE CAP AND GOWN 19 2 3 S rrr A T Q This ancient and decrepit association of has-beens is rapidly going to the bow- wows.

By Majl Ewing. Awarded Essay Prize, 1922 Commencement EVERYTHING in France proceeds by ' schools ' , ' ' says Henry James, ' and there is no artist so bungling that he will not find another to call him ' dear master ' . The author of Madame Bovary, Gustave Flaubert, is of the school of Balzac. His work is different from Balzac in that he takes as his medium a modified form of realism — naturalism, which in- terprets life as it is, impersonally and without comment. Born in 1820, the son of a country doctor, Flaubert spent his youth in the most flourishing period of romanticism. It saturated him as it did all the youths of his day. He writes during his college days that as soon as lessons were ended, literature began. We ruined our eyes reading novels in the dimly lighted dormitories. We carried poignards in our pockets and dreamed superbly extravagant dreams. One of us blew out his brains with disgust at the problem of living, and another hanged himself with his cravat. How we hated the commonplace! What aspirations we had to grandeur! What a respect for the masters! How we loved, how we adored, Victor Hugo! He hated bourgeois life and customs and the ordinary held a repulsion for him. He realized that the sickly-flowering romanticism which was at its height in France was a malady of which France ought to be purged, and he set himself to this task — a task for which he had no inherent love and no particular fitness. Being a man of means, he had leisure which enable him to write carefully and slowly. He wished to mirror life, not to interpret it. In this he differs from Balzac, who analyzed life; but he is like Balzac in subordinating psychology to physiology. To Flaubert human life was a spectacle, an occupation, an entertainment for the eyes — interesting because we are in it and of it. The real is more satisfactory than the ideal or the romantic. What our eyes show us is all that we are sure of. It was with this theory that he wrote his naturalistic masterpiece. Madame Bovary was Flaubert ' s first novel, and it has remained altogether his best. He knew well what he was describing — exceptionally so, and it would be hard to conceive anything more dreary, more sordid, and more desolate than the greater part of the subject-matter of his romance. Mouers de Province the sub-title runs, and the work is a striking example of the singular passion among Frenchmen of talent for disparaging their provincial life. Emma Bovary is the daughter of a small farmer who has been able to send her to a convent and to give her an education superior to her position in life. She is pretty, graceful, and given over to romantic fancies gotten out of books. She marries a small country doctor — the kindest, the simplest, the stu- pidest of husbands. He takes her to live in a squalid little country town called Yonville l ' Abbaye, near Rouen. She is luxurious and sentimental; she wastes away with ennui, loneliness, and hatred of her narrow lot and absent opportunities. On the very first chance she takes a lover. With him she is happy for a while, but her hap- piness is shattered by his brutal desertion. She falls violently ill and nearly dies; when she gets well she takes another lover of a different kind. All Yonville sees and knows and gossips, but her husband neither sees nor suspects. Meanwhile she has been spend- ing money insanely trying to gratify and satisfy her romantic desires. She runs in 169 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 debt and gives notes. Her husband cannot meet his bills; her second lover leaves her ruined, dishonored, and at bay. She goes to her first lover as a beggar, but he will not give her a sou. She tries to sell herself, and fails. Then she collapses, takes poison, and dies horribly. The bailiffs come down upon her husband, who is still heroically ignorant. The truth at last comes to him, but it is too much to bear; he loses all courage and dies on the garden bench one day, leaving twelve francs and fifty sous to his little girl, who has to earn her living in a cotton factory. Briefly and imperfectly, this is the tragedy — awful, powerful, consummate. Emma Bovary, like all powerfully conceived figures in fiction, is typical. Her history is full of substance and meaning. In spite of being minutely described, she remains a living creature, and it is as such that she is interesting. Flaubert, with an intimate touch, gives us her history. We see it march steadily to its horrible but inevitable termination, and we would not have it otherwise. Emma Bovary has an insatiable hunger for pleasure and she lives in the midst of dreariness; she is foolish, vain, and ignorant, a person of erotic temperament, typical of the many young women who lead vain, ignorant, false, vulgar lives. Possessed of irritable nerves and of a natural appreciation of luxury, of admiration, and of agreeable sensations, Emma Bovary plunges downward in order to satisfy and to stimulate her passions. To such a woman life is a bad quarter of an hour filled with exquisite moments , and she would have it completely filled. She had read romantic poets, and when she finds that her lovers fall short of her dreams, she does not think the fault to be with the poets, but in them. She seeks escape from her daily world and finds it in her lovers. But only for a short time. This passion, romantic and fiery at first, becomes animalism, sordid, vulgar, unromantic. When sh e feels this she tries to drown it out, but she cannot, for Novelty is to love like bloom to fruit; it gives a luster which is easily effaced but never returns . We see her character deteriorate until her existence be- comes a chain of lies. She was not happy and never had been. Her only social relaxation was to spend the evening with Madame Homais. Her life had known two brilliant moments — the ball at Vaubeyessard, which had opened her eyes to her own 1 deprivations, thus intolerably quickening her desires, and her visit to the theater at Rouen. Both incidents are carefully set forth and bear significantly on the story. The book is full of expressive episodes — the most successful in its hideous relief and reality being a long account of the operation performed by Charles Bovary upon the club-foot of the hostler at the inn — an operation ridiculous, unskillful, clumsy, which shows Emma too fatefully the mediocrity of her husband. When she tries to love him he does the unlovable. It is he, though unconsciously, who prompts each action in her deterioration. Born in a common sphere, and given an elegant education, Emma Bovary longs for the world that is not and cannot be hers. In her attempt to achieve its reality she fails, ruining not only herself but her family. Her life is the biography of a little bourgeoise full of romantic ideas and the ruin caused by her foolish desire to realize them. Her reach exceeded her grasp, and, like so many others, she longed tor the unattainable. For God when He set the far horizon before us, constantly escaping, set also the longing for it within our hearts. It was this longing that killed Emma Bovary. Everyone in the novel is either stupid or mean — but against a background of dreary shabbiness two figures stand out in sharp relief — one is Charles Bovary, the husband of Emma; the other is M. Homais, the village apothecary. Bovary is introduced to us as a schoolboy, and again we see him in college and during his first marriage. He is the only good person of the book, but he is stupidly, pitifully good. His love for Emma is deep, pure, and sincere. He does not understand her or her romantic aspira- 170 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 tions, but his devotion grows as her debauchery increases. She fascinates him more and more. He unconsciously promotes her degradation and bungles at every turn. When she might have loved him he ruins himself because of his lack of understanding. His commonness, his small-town satisfaction, his awful mediocrity, are pitiable. To as highly sensitized a soul as Emma he is an impossible lover and husband. Through- out his married life he does not suspect Emma ' s deception, and at her death it is hard for him to believe. When it is completely revealed he adores her only the more since she was greatly sought after by others. Toujours la fatalite , and to fate Charles weakly, meekly submits. From beyond the tomb Emma exerts a more complete influ- ence on Charles than before. He wears the cravats that she liked, and patent leather boots. He becomes romantic and extremely sentimental. His professional trade is lost through neglect, and he sits at home musing over the things that were Emma ' s while she lived. He is not as typical a character as his wife. His life has been a succession of half attempts and whole failures. It is with pity and disgust that the reader sees this man give up and die. M. Homais is a complete creation — free-thinker, rapacious shop-keeper, stern moralist, ardent democrat, abject snob, social and political climber all in one. He is for Flaubert the incarnation of triumphant democracy , a by-word for the narrow provincial Philistine who has given his name to a social species. With his pompous vocabulary, his little vanities, his windy vacuity, his sharp accent, and garrulousness, he is a superb picture. The other characters of the book are done with skill and care. Bournisicn, the priest, cures souls with a perfunctory, ■r ell-meaning, uncomprehending fatuity. Lestiboudois, Guillaumin, and 1 ' Hereux arc strong individual types sketched by an accurate and understanding hand. In such characters as these Flaubert has shown the banality of provincial life as he saw and felt it. In his position of naturalist, sympathy with his characters and their motives is forbidden. It is well, for thus he has created a great novel. Had he been a realist living in his characters he could never have written Madame Bovary . He hated the mediocrity of bourgeois ideas, and no one felt the decay of the territorial aristocracy with more bitterness than Flaubert. He felt it his duty to purge France of the romanticism which was in its highest and most fetid development. Madame Bovary sought to do this. When it appeared in 1857, it seemed harsh and cruel to the literary world, fed upon ideal situations. The aim in writing Madame Bovary had been to show the danger of romantic books on a silly woman of an education superior to her common environment, and to make it a monument of literary perfec- tion. In both he succeeded. The book is a powerful sermon, preaching that the wages of sin is death, and its obvious lesson is the serious danger of romanticism. He shows us that grand lyric aspirations which are essentially romantic, these vague exulta- tions, when carried into practical life by little souls are able to produce immorality and misery without grandeur for compensation. In Emma we see the typical example. Her convent education had been supplanted by romantic poetry and fiction and her end is hard and terrible. The agony of the closing scenes strike home an unforgettable lesson. By the best of sound critics Madame Bovary is one of the world ' s greatest novels — great because of its style, its use of language, and its depiction of character. It is the masterpiece of the naturalistic school. Its style is noticeable both by its want of spontaneity and its beautiful cadence. It is a heavy and considered style about which Paul Bourget says: He founded his theory of cadence on an accord between our physical and moral person as he founded his theory of the choice of words and of their place on a very keen perception of the psychology of the language. Vigorous and sober is his pro se, dry, cold, and cynical in tone — sometimes brutal, often detached. 171 THE CAP AND GOWN 1923 He searched always for the mysterious law of the creation of la belle phrase. He in- flicted himself with agonies of work about which people have made jokes. He cast and recast his lines, indefatigable, getting up in the night in order to erase one word, mobilizing his vast vocabulary for one adjective. The noble mania for perfection tyrannized over him as it has over other incomparable writers of prose. The original text of Madame Bovary cannot be discerned except in, a few places because of the numerous corrections. But to write thus was a labor of love — ecrire etait pour lui ainsi qu ' il le disait quelquefois, une sorcellerie. His style is one which the lazy- minded cannot enjoy, and his meticulous descriptions, which omit nothing for the imagination, admirable and beautiful as they often are, tire the reader. All his de- scriptive passages are vivid, actual, and pictorial, with high qualities of linguistic euphony. The scenes live before the eyes. His use of color in these is notable and inimitable. In places the cadenced prose is onomatopoeic. The reality of life in Yonville, where a trivial incident assumes the importance of a leading event, the happy instance of the way in which the author ' s style lingers over these pictures of small town life — this to some is masterful, to others wearisome. Behind all Flaubert ' s writings the reader feels the huge intellectual machinery of a scholar. One can easily realize that Madame Bovary is a product of years of labored effort. As a naturalist Flau- bert mirrors bourgeois life in the province, but he goes deeper. He dissects his char- acters and mirrors their inner souls. His minor characters are executed with as much care and precision as his chief ones. There is an admirable sense of proportion between them. As Flaubert was a passionate worshiper of style and diction, so was he of accuracy — surely he must have seen an arsenic suicide to describe the awful death agonies of Emma Bovary. The reader seems to have lived through it all and the intensity of the illusion becomes so horrible that he is overwhelmed. The dullness and flatness of it suffocate, the pettiness and ugliness sicken, him. Here there is no botching, no bungling, no scamping. Ethically Madame Bovary reflects Flaubert ' s sober pessimism. To him all spiritual aspiration is foredoomed to failure. He pursued art to forget the world about him and for art ' s sake. In this book he has presented neither a character to imitate nor an act to admire. It is necessary to admire, it is necessary to venerate this man of great faith, who wore himself out in his zeal for the good, a zeal for which his spirit naturally had a repulsion. He slowly sweated out his superb books and made to letters the methodic sacrifice of his entire life. The Capture of the Mountain By Capers C.
