It is the way of editors to hope to be brilliantly original, but it is the way of circumstances to restrain them. ♦ THEME EXPLANATION Sewanee is so completely rr of the South that our theme needs no explanation. We present it in the hope that at Sewanee the best of a quickly passing age will be preserved and handed on to her future sons as a heritage from an age when the art of living was perhaps better understood. ■ DEDICATION to brigadier-general yames c Postell yervey To honor a man of many honors is difficult and even smacks of conceit. We find ourselves in this double pre- dicament in dedicating this volume of the Qap and Qown to a gentle- man whose spirit exemplifies that of the old South and of our own Sewanee. — « £ - ■ 33 ffl 5$ p THE LIBRARY JOHNSON HALL J- si2s , , WALSH HALL f g r g. . t ! ;.k Xi ' ?

Gailor, D.CX Memphis, Tennessee The Board of Regents is the executive committee, of the Board of Trustees and has all of the powers of that body when it is not in session. The regents are composed of three bishops, three presbyters, and nine laymen, all elected by the trustees. T ho ugh its functions are primarily financial, it may deal with any phase of the university interests. V- SD G Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor Chancellor For over forty years Bishop Gailor has b:en officially connected with Sewanee as professor, chaplain, vice-chancellor, and chancellor. While chaplain of the university he refused a bishopric, prefering to cast his lot with the university, and has never ceased to be a source of inspiration to every man who goes out from Sewanee. [E SOI p r- Dr. B. F. Finney Vice-Chancellor Elected a regent in 1913 and vice-chancellor in 1921, Dr. Finney has served his alma mater with devotion and passionate idealism. This commence- ment, on the completion of his tenth year of service, he was presented with a testimonial of appreciation signed by representatives of every Sewanee organization. OF AN! Dr. George Merrick Baker Dr. Baker ' s services to the university have been many, but perhaps the greatest of these is the broad understanding which he has built up between the students and faculty. It has been said of him that in handling student problems he has shown justice tempered with intelligence, which is after all, wisdom.

Faulkner The Inn Miss Johnnie Tucker Tuciaviay Mrs. Horace Tyler Cannon Sewanee students are not allowed to live in fraternity houses due to the small size of the student body. As a result a dormitory system has been built up that compares favorably with those of other institutions. Perhaps the most distinctive feature of this system is the matrons who create an home-like atmosphere of social dignity that plays a large part in the development of the Sewanee student. Too much cannot be said in praise of these ladies, whose ministrations to our spiritual and often to our physical needs, symbolize home to us during our stay at Sewanee. ..(, J Johx Moras Ezell, Head Proctor )avid Yates Cannon Chari.es Henry Barron Johnson Charles Thomas Hoppen The Inn Ci. avion Lee Burweli The Inn Hugh Marios Goodman .... ... Tuekaivay John Carlton Turner Si. Luke ' s The proctorial system is maintained at Sewanee for the purpose of enforcing discipline. The proctorial body is composed of oustanding members of the junior and senior classes chosen by the vice-chancellor with the advice of the retiring board and the matrons. Taken from the student body as they are. the proctors have the support of the majority of the students and the university has found this system capable at all times of performing the function for which it was created. Each proctor is given jurisdiction over one dormitory, although their dutj also extends to the university campus. THE CAP iOW Honor Council G. David Walker Seniors Edward Cornelius Nash Seniors J. Morgan Soaper Juniors Frank Mix Robbins, Jr Juniors DuBose Egleston Sophomores St. George Cooper Freshmen John Turner TJieological .School The Honor System has been used at Sewanee since the founding of the University. The Honor Council is made up of seven members. Two are elected from each of the two upper classes and one from both the sophomore and freshman classes. Before this body are brought all of the infringements of the Honor System. After careful consideration the Honor Council can advise the faculty as to the punishments necessary. 28 jujideet Vestry The Rev. Moultrie Guerry Chaplain David Yates Senior Warden Charles H.

Bache The Student Vestry holds a unique position at Sewanee. It is entirely a student organization, but its chief duty is to keep the school linked closely together with the chapel in all its undertakings. It is made up of two members from each class, elected by popular vote. 1 he Theo- logical school is also represented by two members. The Vestry sponsored a program of Lenten speakers, including Dr. Alexander Guerry. This year it inaugurated a Chapel Completion Fund for All Saints Chapel. Also it managed special Lenten-Easter offerings for the Mountain Missions. 29 UNIVERSITY OF TL oAlma 3Aater Alma Mater, Sewanee, My glorious Mother ever be, I will give my all to thee — God bless thee to eternity.

His work with the team was sufficiently productive to bring into the limelight the latent possibilities of the use of the Warner system in connection with a light, fast squad. Coach Lwciee Emerson Coach Emerson came to Sewanee from the Montgomery Bell Academy of Nashville, and has been head coach of basketball for the last two seasons. Both his varsity and freshman teams have made good on the courts of the South. He will coach the 1932 edition of the basketball Tiger. Coach Harry E. Clark Coach Clark, familiarly known as Hec, has coached the freshman squad for several years, leaving that position in 1929 to assist the head coach of the varsity team, and returning to that berth in 1930. He is head coach elect for the season of 1931, ami will be assisted by Mr. Allen G. Lincoln. Coach Hec is an alumnus of Sewanee. 70 - a THE CAP AND GOWN n I -. ' Coach Albert G. Willey After the resignation of Coach Harmon, Professor Willey took over the reins of the track team, in an hour of desperate need having volunteered his services. Under his direction and training members of the 1931 squad suc- ceeded in breaking and setting three Sewanee records. Coach Willey is a one- time holder of a world track record. Coach. Paul Scull During the season of 1928 Coach Scull was selected one of the halfbacks of the All-American football team. His Alma Mater is the University of Penn- sylvania, and he accompanied Coach Harmon down from the East to instill the new system into the Purple squad. His specialty was the backfiehl. Coach Gordon Clark Mr. Gordon Clark was assistant freshman football coach for the past season, performing at the same time the duties of graduate manager of athletics and organizing secretary of the alumni. Mr. Clark is an alumnus of Sewanee, and will coach the 1931 freshman football team. ihym THE CAP AND GOWN :- CAPTAIN ROBERT STIMSON Captain Stimson has held the center position of the Tiger line for three years, and was a member of the 1931 freshman team, the last team to defeat Vanderbilt in football. He has played through his entire football career, both in high school and in college, without receiving an in- jury, and he is noted for his fighting game. At the end of the season of 1930 he received from the AU-American Board of Football a certificate of merit for distinguished service to his team. He is a member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon. TBALL THE CAP AND GOWN Varsity Football Coaches Harvey Harmon and Paul Scu ' l, accom- panied by the Warner system of football, intro- duced the 1930 football season at Sewanee. Coach Harmon came to Sewanee from Haverford, where he had been head coach, and Scull, an All- Amer- ican of 1928, resigned a business position to take up his new job of coaching. Believing that the War- ner system, requiring lighter and faster men, was the most suitable type of football for the small-sized Tigers, the mentors began to instill the fundamen- tals of Fop ' s doctrines into the minds of th?ir men, and the squad responded beautifu ly, showing great improvement as the season progre sed. A Satisfactory Victory In their hist game of the season the Tigers won a very satisfactory victory from the Jacksonville Teachers ' College, Jacksonville, Ala. Four touch- downs and one extra point to the Teachers ' zero gave the victory to Sewanee. The weight of the two teams was about equal, but the Mountain men displayed superior skill in every department of the game in spite of the fact that the Teachers forced them to punt on several occasions. Putting forward an offense that had not been seen on the Mountain in years, the victors gained fifteen first downs to the opponents ' three. End runs enabled the visitors to make their most dangerous threats, hut these at- tempts were stopped by men hardened in a season of good preliminary training. Clockwork plays on the offensive ami improved blocking on the de- fensive made evident the work of the new coach- ing staff. McLure, Phillips, and Jeffries in the backfield, French, Stimson, R., and Patton in the line, were the mainstays in the first pubic appear- ance of the 1930 football Tiger. Tennessee Poly Bows to Tiger ■11 for early sea- Tennessee Poly- their second game of the Clicking together surprisingly son games, the Tigers defeated 14-0, i technic Institute, THE CAP AND GOWN season. Sewanee passes were good six times out of twelve attempts, and netted the victors well-earned yardage. Barron and Phillips piled up distance gained to take a total of one hundred and ninety- one yards between them. Fumbles cost Sewanee several chances to score, and when Taylor of T. P. I. intercepted a Sewanee pass to run within five or six yards of the goal, his team had its only chance to push the ball across the scoring marker. The Tiger failed to gain few times, and succeeded in amassing fifteen first downs to Tech ' s four. Coach Harmon was enthusiastic over the evidences of im- provement made manifest in the game. The T. P. I. team put up a game fight, but were thrown back by a business-like Tiger out to win. Tiger Loses to Kentucky Wildcat Kentucky defeated Sewanee, 37-0, when the two teams met in Lexington for their seasonal fracas. The game was unique for Sewanee in two respects. It was Sewanee ' s first conference game of the sea- son, and it was the first time the Purple Tiger had ever used his claws at night. The game was played under the glare of the big lights, and the Purplemen found it hard to judge the flight of a white pigskin sailing through the upper regions of the murky darkness. The Wildcat gained at will through the lighter Tiger line, and held Sewanee to a hundred and forty-four yards gained from scrimmage. Sewanee took to the air seventeen times, completed seven of the passes, and outpunted Kentucky by a five-yard average. In spite of the score the Tiger played a hard- fought game, for of the six touchdowns Kentucky earned four getting the others on the breaks of the game, such as when Urbaniack scooped up a pass that looked like it had been grounded as it was watched from the stands. Jeffries ' passes, Barron ' s running, and Phillips ' punts gained most of the yardage for the Tiger. Andy and Bob Stimson, Sterling, Kellerman, Pat- ton, and French were the staunch pillars of the line. Jeffries was the surprise of the game with his 2 o 5 THE CAP AND GOWN rig passes, or he harelv kn i 1 which traveled seventy yards eked down by one of the Wildcats. Tiger Fights ' Bama to Standstill Playing against a team of gargantuan size in comparison to their own meagre physiques, th? Sewanee football team fought the championship Alabama Crimson Tide to a standstill, holding them scoreless for two periods of the game. Never be- fore has the scrappy little team from the Mountain received such an ovation as it received in Birming- ham. The Tide scored in the last part of the sec- ond quarter, and was unable to scratch again until the very last few minutes of the fourth, when Sewanee ' s reserves were gone. Outweighed twenty- five pounds to the man, the Purplemen several times turned the Tide back from the very shadow of the goal, allowing the victors only twenty -five points. The coaches of both teams started second-string nun. It was a surprise to Sewanee men as well as to Alabama rooters to see a fresh Sewanee team begin to warm up at the same time Wallace Wade called forth his wrecking crew. The wrecking crew scored only once, for it was after they had beaten the Sewanee men to a frazzle and turned the struggle over to second team men that the champions added three more scores. In spite of the dislike anyone has for the term moral victory, it is certain that the Tiger gained just such a vic- tory on that afternoon in Legion Field. It was almost a reproduction of the game Sewanee played against ' Barna in 1926, when the Tide won 2-0. Tiger Triumphs Over Ole Miss Playing before a large home-coming crowd and consequently against an inspired team, Sewanee won Iter annual fracas with the University of Missis- sippi. It was Sewanee ' s first conference win since 1927 (Tulane 6, Sewanee 12). It was also the first time during the se ason that Sewanee had gons up against a team using the Warner system of football, but the Tiger showed his superior knowl- 7 THE CAP AND GOWN - ' V. . v - edge of the principles of the system to sain two touchdowns to Ole Miss ' one. Sewanee ' s line and backfield were functioning well in the opening pe- riods of the game, but fell off at the beginning of the second half when the infuriated Die Miss team came hack to win on their home-coming occasion. The most outstanding improvement noted in th. ' game was that in the passing attack, which was responsible for the two touchdowns and came near netting the Tiger another. Sterling and Phillip, were playing the passing game to perfection. Purplemen Bow to L. S. U. By converting a pair of fumbles into touchdown. , and by keeping Sewanee out ide of th -ir eighteen- yard line, the Tigers of L. S. [ ' . defeated the Tigers of the Mountain, 12-0. Fumbles played a great part in the game. Both teams succeeded in working the ball into scoring territory only to lose the chanc: to score by a fumble, or by a pass intercepted or dropped over the last little white line. The victors ' first score came in the second quarter after they had intercepted a Sewanee toss, and completed one of their own. The second tally was scored in the second quarter on four successive first downs, and a short run over the goal line for the score. Gene Mil. ore furnished Sewanee ' . best chance to score. He received a punt to run sixty yards to within eighteen yards of L. S. l s. goal, but three Sewanee passes failed and a line buck was stopped. Morton bore the brunt of the attack, and was cheered time and time again by the large crowil when he stopped L. S. U. end runs almost single-handed. Rice Wins, 12-0 Sewanee lost to Rice by two touchdown., but not even a Houston paper has said that Rice outplayed Sewanee. From start to finish it was a beautiful game, and anybody ' s up to the last few minutes of action. The Tiger line for over three quarters mm o £ THE CAP AND GOWN withstood the attacks of determined Rice backs, and threatened to open the way to a score on several occasions. Early in the game Sewanee launched a passing attack that caused the Texans no end of worry. But superior numbers of the Rice team and lack of reserve in their own finally lost the game for the Mountain men. Words are insufficient to express the part played by every Sewanee man in that contest. Les Weuscher made several lengthy runs, returning punts for good gains. French, Bean, Patton, and Morton were again the defensive bul- wark of the Tigers. Jamerson and Wallace are good runners for Rice, and can he counted on for several touchdowns before the season is over — provided they don ' t have another Sewanee team to face, said a Houston paper of the contest. Chattanooga and Sewanee Tie Sewanee remained undefeated by the Chattanooga Moccasins at the end of the seventh engagement of the two teams, but that is as much as can be said, I Ni no victory can be recorded for either team. Chattanooga threatened the Sewanee goal line time after time, but just as often the fighting Tiger threw the serpent for losses to maintain the integ- rity of his goal line. Sewanee was unable to get close to the goal, for the Tiger was clawing at an inspired team, since nothing could be dearer to the hearts of the Moccasins than to defeat the Cat of the Mountain. On the defense the entire Se- wanee team was wide awake and functioned, ex- cept for an end run now and then that slipped by the outposts, but on the offensive the line seemed unable to fling back the coils of the serpents of Chattanooga. Several times it was enough to bring the hearts of Sewanee men into their mouth; to sec- Moccasins carry the ball on and on toward thi ' Purple goal only to be stopped by a desperate tackle within scoring territory and thrown back by a line that froze with adamantine obsti nancy. — i!S THE CAP AND GOWN Gamecock Noses Tiger Out The South Carolina Gamecock stole a victory from the Sewanee Tiger to win In one point. Sta- tistics show that in every department of the game the Tiger was superior, but he was unable to take advantage of the breaks and in that he lost. Ths field of play was standing inches deep in mud, and convenient puddles were waiting here and there to spoil the hopes of passers, runners, and punters. Weuscher made his first college touchdown on a fake pass around left end, and the next ta ' ly came from a Phillips to Sterling pass. Sewanee ' s two score- were the result of a last minute, fourth quar- ter rally, thrilling even though it did fall short. Little Johnnie Ezzell played the game of his career. Morton, Bean, and Anderson put up the fight in the line, French having received a severe injury to his head. Jeffrie: excelled himself, and brough: many an anxious look to the faces of Caro ina rooters. The end of the game left the ball on the Gamecock ' s two-yard line in Carolina ' s possession, indicating the extent of the Tiger rally. Southwestern Wins The Sewanee-Southwesteru contert was the cli- max to the 1930 season, and showed the worn-out condition of the Tiger squad. Having reached their peak in the Carolina game, the Sewanee men drooped badly when they faced the Lynx, and lost 26-6. But it was not only the drop from the peak that disturbed the Tiger, for he was injured in every conceivable way and at every possible spot on his anatomy. Sewanee men were put out of the game at frequent intervals through injuries and through the cumulative effect of a long season hard on a squad composed of so few men. French had already been forced out for the season. Andy Stim- son, Jeffries, and Phillips had to be sent to the jUJ% I lL: £i l it ti ffn i! w ft iu THE SQUAD showers. The Tiger that was left was only a rag, a bone, and a hank of hair. Never- theless, the Lynx was playing tor tle;ir life, and his performance can not he overrated. His attack functioned well. Boh Stimson completed his career as captain with the greatest game of his experience. lie played an inspired game, being one of the few to escape injury, a misfortune he has avoided throughout his football service. Morton, Ezzell, and Bean were with Hob at the peak of their strength throughout the fracas. Sterling was the star of the secondary defense, and Barron was the honor man in the running plays. Abe Phillips gave his be t during his short stay in the game, and Jeffries aided Barron in running the ball. His was the important contribution of Sewanee ' s only touch down. Post Season Comment At the end of the season Joe Bean, Captain Bob Stimson, and Jack Morton received certificates of merit from the All- American Board of Football for distinguished service to their team. Coach Harmon was released to the University of Pennsylvania, where he has taken over the duties of head coach, and Coach Scull returned to his business position. Hec Clark was elected head coach of football in response to a movement to elect Sewanee men to positions of athletic importance. Mr, Allen G. Lincoln was elected assistant to Coach Clark. Mr. Lincoln comes to Sewanee highly recommended by coaches from all over the nation. He will also be head track coach for the season of 1932. Coach Harmon and Coach Clark held a spring practice training period to whip the freshman candidates into shape for the varsity team of next fall. At the end of the period a game was held between two squads picked from the spring training group. So evenly matched were the two elevens that the contest ended in a scoreless tie. THE CAP AND GOWN The Freshman Season While Coaches Harmon and Scull were instilling the fundamentals of the Warner system into the varsity men, Hec Clark, assisted by Gordon Clark, were taking th? same work to the freshman squad. Results were immediately forthcoming and the: Class of 1934 turned out the strongest yearling eleven Sewanee has had in some years. The freshmen opened the season with a 33-7 win over the first year men of Union University, Jackson, Tennessee. Pep and punch were the outstanding evidences of the Little Tigers ' skill and love for the game. The backs functioned like seasoned old-timers, and the line was stalwart enough to throw off the attacks of the much- touted Union eleven. Welford and Cravens were punting with remarkable early season skill, Kauerz backed up the line as it should be done, and Castleberry ' s line- bucks added to the yardage gained. A light and inexperienced Sewanee Military Acad- emy team opposed the freshmen in their next contest, and the yearlings came out on top of a 52-0 score. Passes netted the freshmen most of their gains, for their heavier men were either on the sidelines or in the game for very short stays. The Academy played a good fighting game, but were unable to push past the heavy Sewanee line composed of men of the calibre of Larry Thompson, Ox Clark, Hayes, Lawrence, and Glass. Morgan High School offered the yearlings their next opponents. The first-year men found it easy to pass over the heads of the Morgan men, but were instructed to drop the passing attack and develop some of their running plays. Toward the last of the contest Morgan opened a serious passing rally on a second string Tiger team, and the threat was ended by Starr, who intercepted a Morgan pass on his own five- yard line. Six touchdowns and three extra points was the extent of the Tiger victory. A strong and powerful University of Tennessee team visited the Mountain, touted to win, but were sent away with the meagre satisfaction of a tied contest. For three scoreless periods the battle raged on, and then Wynn of Tennessee broke loose for a long run and six points. Sewanee was not far behind, and the brilliant passing of Pate soon netted her the touchdown. The yearling line was adamant against a large and hard-hitting opposition. Guy Glass, Clark, L. Thompson, and Hanson were in the line with a fight for every Tennessee attempt to gain. The annual contest with the Chattanooga freshmen ended in a defeat for Sewanee. A Sewanee punt was blocked early in the game and the visitors turned it into a touch- down. A pass from Well ford to Kauerz gave the freshmen their counter in the fourth period, but they were unable to make good the extra point necessary to tie the game. The contest ended a 7-6 victory for the Moccasin yearlings. Doug Vaughan played a brilliant game for Sewanee. He defended his end of the line, at which Chattanooga directed most of her attacks, until it seemed that the visitors should have learned a lesson and tried some other path. ! 3 mb THE CAP AND GOWN The Little Colonels of Centre College outfought and out-smarted a stronger team to defeat the Tiger freshmen, 14-0. Every type of football known to man was dis- played by both teams. The first half was all in favor of the Kentuckians, but the second half gave Sewanee the edge, although she was unable to make the tallies necessary to a win. Thompson, L., Herbert, Clark, and Hanson waged the defensive battle for the Tigers. The entire backfield shared equally the honors of gaining yard- age and upholding the secondary defense. During the last few minutes of play the Little Tigers resorted to passing, but the threat occasioned by that attempt was ended when one of the tosses was intercepted by Barksdale of Centre, who ran fifty-five yards for his team ' s second tally. Handicapped by a field resembling the muddy bottoms of Mississippi, the Tiger yearlings were held to a zero tie by Vanderbilt freshmen. Twice Coburn placed his team within scoring distance, but both times the ball slipped from the hands of Sewanee men and went over to Vanderbilt. Sewanee ' s line continually opened holes, but in the end a fumble or an obstinate secondary defense lost them the ball. The Purplemen carried most of the play into the line, where Castleberry and Kauerz bucked into a seething mass of mud-covered figures on play after play. )n one trip toward the promised land, Sewanee carried the ball to Vandy ' s five-yard stripe, but were penalized when a substitute failed to report, ami subsequently lost the ball on downs. Big Guy Glass was the mainstay of the Purple defense, aided by L. Thompson and Hanson. Castleberry, Kauerz, and Cravens performed the backfield work for the freshmen. The last Tiger threat was stopped by the Vandy forward wall, an impenetrable harrier when its back was to the goal posts. At the beginning of the game the field was in excellent condition, the rain was wetting the bare spots just enough to keep down the dust, but the drizzle soon turned into a downpour, and the field became soggy and slippery, a serious handicap to the fast Tiger backs and accurate passers. With the Vanderbilt game the 1930 yearling season came to an end. The freshmen had made a good showing, and everyone felt highly jubilant over the prospects of their performances with the varsity next season. Since Coach Hec Clark had been elected head ccach, Gordon Clark, now graduate manager of athletics and organizing secre- tary of the alumni, was elected to succeed him. Mr. Clark will retain his former positions. Not only has Coach Gordon Clark very good prospects for an excellent entering squad next year, but Coach Hec Clark is also looking forward to the addition of the freshman squad to his next year ' s varsity material. 82 CAPTAIN HUGH GOODMAN Captain Goodman has not only distinguished himself in basketball, but also in the major sports of football and track, for he is a three-letter man. His position on the bas- ketball team was running guard, in football he was an end, and in track he ran the middle distances, setting during the season of 1931 a new record in the four-forty. He is captain-elect of track, and is a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity. BASKETBALL THE CAP AND GOWN M Varsity Basketball With eight old men returning for the season, one n](l man returning after an absence of a year due to illness, and the addition of five men from ih • freshman rank, of 1930, the 1931 edition of the basketball Tiger faced prospects of a bright career on the Courts of the South during the season. Some of the men were prevented from starting with the rest of the squad because of football injuries, and some were hurt later in the year to such an extent that they were unable to stay in the game. The 1931 basketball team was nevertheless an excellent one, even though it did have its temperamental moments. The Kurk Terrors were the first opponents of the season. The Tiger won the game, 36-27, in spite of the work t Wolfe, who took nine points for high score honors. Goodman and McAlpine fol- lowed him with eight apiece, and were the stars of the victorious Tiger team. Morgan Soaper, standing guard, hot the first basket of the season. Toward the end of the Christmas holidays the basketeers returned to the Mountain and mobilized for a trip through the South. Just previous to the vacation the powerful DuPont team from Old Hick- ory, Tennessee, went down before the onslaught ' if the Tigers by one point, the game ending 27-26. At the outset of the long trip another corporation team was encountered. They were the mighty Tepco team of Chattanooga. Sewanee ' s team was not up to the lightning speed of the opponents of national fame, and lot, 36-15. Yates was high point man with a meagre score of six. From Chat- tanooga the Tiger journeyed to New Orleans to m:et Tulane. Sewanee swept a double-header with Tulane. By a score of 27-25 the first game went to the Tiger. Goodman came up from his guard position time after time and finished the contest with ten points to his credit. He distinguished himself in the sec- ond game by again coming through with a good eleven points. The second game Sewanee won by a safer margin of ten points, 49-39. McAlpine led the field with twelve points. The two games with Tulane were the first appearances of the Purple hasketeers in Southern Conference games, and put THE CAP AND GOWN them at the head of the list. Either New Orleans or the two hard games took the fire nut of the Tigers, for they slipped up in the next game and lost to the Mississippi State Teachers ' College. A score of 20 to 35 gave the Teachers a decided vic- tory. Allums of the victors piled up fourteen points, whereas Mc A I pine was high Purple scorer with seven counters. The last game of the trip went to Sewanee by a twenty-five-point margin, for the Purplemen had retrieved their snap and dash. The McRae team of Laurel, Mississippi, was the loser. Both Yates and McAlpine scored seventeen points, and Morton followed them with thirteen. McRee, giant Tiger center, made four baskets and one foul goal. The score went to the lopsided count of 60-35. The wins of the trip brought Sewanee into the limelight cast hy the writing of sport writers over the Soulh, all of whom advi ed that the Sewanee Tigers he watched as a possible championship contender. The Tiger lost his first home-court game to Mid- dle Tennessee State Teachers ' College, 29-37. In- accurate passing and a general relapse cost th; j Purplemen the victory. The Teachers featured a fast-moving, quickly-breaking team that missed few shots throughout the game. Captain Goodman, however, was high point man with his twelve markers. The Teachers were in top form and hit a fast stride all the way through the game. The Tiger recovered from the slump when he went up against the Moccasins of the University of Chattanooga, and won in an extra period game, 4.1-35. Sewanee took the lead early in the contest and retained it at the half. The Moccasins came back on the floor determined to reproduce their win of the previous year, and soon tied the ; core at twenty-four. At the final whistle the game s ' .ood at thirty-three all, and the extra period began after a short rest. Sewanee began to get in her long shots, managing to get well out in front before the end of the overtime. Goodman again took high point honors. The game was the most beautiful staged on the home court through the year, for both quintets were functioning with near perfection. Vandy clicked perfectly to deal Sewanee her first conference defeat of the season. The Tiger was playing on foreign soil and was weakened by in- juries. The score was 17-35. Even the high scor- THE CAP AND GOWN mg Captain Goodman was held to four points, and McRee was unable to gather in more than seven. The Tigers went to the showers at the half with the score against them, 15-11. During the second half they were able to collect only one field goal, and could not penetrate the Vandy defense. Playing again on foreign soil the Tiger lost a return game with the University of Chattanooga by 31-36, allowing the Moccasins to avenge the defeat of a few weeks previous. It was a much improved Moccasin team that faced the Tiger in the second contest. Donnolly took thirteen points for the vic- tors, Dawson led the Tigers with eleven, and Yates and Goodman each got eight. Coach Emerson ' s righting Tigers gave Alabama a hard contest, but finally came out on the short end of a 25-31 score. The big Tide team led al- most all the way through the game, but the Tigers threatened the champions several times in the sec- ond half. Soaper played one of the greatest de- fensive games of his career, and Morton and Yates performed beautifully in the floor work. The ab- sence of McRee, out with injuries, was keenly felt in the Purple line-up. But the Tiger was not long in the slump. Hitting the basket with telling ef- ficiency he came through with a 39 -32 win over Southwestern of Memphis, after overcoming an eleven-point lead piled up by the Lynx in the first minutes of play. Hean took high point honors for the first time of the season with twelve counters. The Purple quintet settled down to its natural game in the last half, and allowed the losers only three field goals. On their second long trip of the year the Tigers found hard sledding and succeeded in winning only one out of f ve games. V. M. I. won the first con- test of the trip, 4S-2S. The victors led at the half, 25-11, nine of Sewanee ' s points being on fouls. Sewanee came hack at the end of the half period rest to score seventeen points, but her defense failed to function, and the Virginians added twenty more. Morton was Tiger high scorer with nine points to his credit. Meeting V. P. I. a night later, the Tiger held the lead throughout the contest except when the score was tied six times in the first half. The final score was 34-27 in purple ink. Dawson took scoring hon- ors for the Sewanee men with ten points, and Soaper 86 $ . THE CAP AND GOWN played an outstanding game to take eight, covering the entire floor in his efforts tor the Purple and White. The contest showed the superiority of the Tigers over their opponents in every departm lit, for the Purplemen were on top of the tide in th it contest. A terrible slump overtook the Tiger in the next game, and he lost to the Virginia Cavali rs, 48-15. The game was slow starting and neither team made a field goal till late in the first period. Tig r shots were inaccurate, allowing Virginia to lead at the halt, one point. The second half found the Cava- liers able to make good their shots from every angle of the floor, while the Purplemen took shot after shot onl) to have them curve back out of the basket. Captain Goodman took ten beautiful tries that only arched out of the ring as if repelled by the iron hoop. The Tiger high point man took a meagre five points, whereas Mayo of Virginia scored twenty-one. A Tiger rested over the week-end met the fast Blue Devils of Puke to go down into defeat, 65-22. The game began ith Goodman ' s two flashy b is- kets before a minute of action was up, but his shots only enraged the Dukemen, and they soon took the lead for the rest of the contest. At the half the victors held the lead, 36-1 5. Goodman scored ten of the Tiger ' s fifteen points with five baskets. Se- wanee was able to collect only seven points in the last half, an all-Duke affair. The Tiger defens? was badly weakened by McRee ' s enforced absence. Goodman led the Tiger scoring with thirteen points, and Carter took the honors of the game wi.h sixteen toward the Duke victory. The Purplemen concluded the trip by dropping a hard-fought game to the University of North Caro- lina, 37-28. The Tarheels held the lead most of the game, but only by a slim margin. Six minutes before the whistle the Tiger held the lead, 22-21, but his {If tense weakened and the Tarheels came through to win the victory. Abe Phillips played his greatest game at guard. Goodman got nine points, and McRee followed him with eight, gar- nered during his short stay in the contest. At th? end of the season Coach Emerson was again re- elected coach after having brought the Tiger through two successful seasons of baske ' .hall. Freshman Basketball The University freshmen met tin- Boys ' Club of Sewanee in their first game and won by a score of 60-24. Speed and passing ability en a hied the freshmen to pile up the high score, whereas the Boys ' Cub team was handicapped by the absence of some of its regulars, n was a trial game for the freshmen, and every man acquitted himself well, The Little Tigers displayed true Sewanee fight and grit •n a hard-fought game lost to the fresh- men of the University of ' hat lannoga, :i i-13. The half found the Tiger trailing by the score of 22-4, but in spite of the fact that they were outclassed, the losers offered the Moccasins some tense moments. last leberry and Kan civ. were the mainstays oi several Tiger rallies, but Purple defense was weak, and the Moccasins romped home to victory. in a fast and exciting game the freshmen eked out a 2!)-27 victory over Castle Heights. Castle- berry was the stellar performer with ten points, and Kauerz followed him with eight. Kenneth Clark played an excellent game at guard. On the next day the freshmen exhibited a sterling brand of basketball to defcal the Baylor quintet, 35-14. The frosh were on their iocs throughout the contest, and allowed the Baylor men only one field goal in the first half. Castleberry and Beggs were in top form, the former making one- hand tosses good Tor twelve points, and Beggs followed him with eight. The freshmen were unable to stand up to their next opponents, the fast -shooting M. Ft. A. quintet, consequently losing. 29-14. The prep schoolers outplayed the Tigers in making crip shots good, and in moving in under the baskets with accurate passing. Lawrence at center was the only Sewanee man in form, and he succeeded in scoring ten of the Little Tigers ' fourteen points. The little freshmen won their game on the occasion of their first invasion of Chattanooga, de- feating the Notre Dame High School 29-25 in closely- fought game. Kauerz. who got twelve counters, and Castleberry, who made seven, assured the Little Tigers of the victory. These two men uied their long-range guns. The game was rough, since the score was about even all through the , on | os I The Little Tigers avenged their loss to M. B. A. in a return game to the tune of 36-30, and in ' heir second game with Notre Dame High School handed that team a second defeat. The score was 32-lii. The entire squad was showing better form to defeat these teams touted as the best high schrol quintets in the section. in tun games with the state Teachers ' College of Murfreesboro, the Little Tigers halved the bill. The first game wenl to the Teachers, 35-30, and the Tigers won the second, 33-29, each team winning i:s home game. The Chattanooga freshmen gave them the r worst beating of the season, almost tripling the score of the freshmen. The final count was 44-15. Mci ' alMe and City High of Chattanooga both handed the freshmen defeats in their appearances in the Moccasin City. City High won, Ml-25, Castleberry contributing ten of the Tiger points. McCallie took a four-point lead to win, 27-23. The Tiger points were bunched around seven, scored by Beggs. The freshmen wound up their season in Lebanon, Tenn., where they lost a close scrap to ast]e Heights Military Academy. It was a return match, and the freshmen had won the first one. The freshmen kept within a lew points of the cadets throughout the contest, hut were hampered by the small gym in which the game was played and by the long absence of Kauerz and Dyer. 88 CAPTAIN CHARLES BARRON Charlie Barron has distinguished himself in all three of the major sports. He now holds the Sewanee record in the half mile, and led his team during the season to victories over several competent contenders. In track he ran the middle distances, in football he was a halfback, and in basketball a forward. His home town of Columbia, South Carolina, has awarded him a medal for distinguished serv- ice in athletics. He is a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. TRACK THE CAP AND GOWN ■..:■ ■■ ■ ' ■:■ ' ' Varsity Track The Tiger track team was somewhat at a loss after the resignation of Coach Harmon, but iheir worries were brought to an end when Mr. Willey offered his services as coach. Their worries ceased hut their work began, for Mr. Willev thought that a team was a:, strong as its legs. The Purplemen under the guidance of Mr. Wiley and backed by their persevering captain began to show real Se- wanee spirit, Four of the Sewanee records were broken during the season, which shows the calibre of the team. Captain Barron, in the first meet of the season against the University of Tennessee, bet- tered his own record and Sewanee ' s record in the half mile. Goodman ran the four-forty against Kentucky in fifty-one and one-tenth seconds, setting a new Sewanee record. Twice during the season Eby forced the two-mile record down several sec- onds, and left the new mark at ten minutes, twenty- four seconds. U. T., 83 Y 2 ; Sewanee, 33 ' 2 The Tiger tracksters faced one of the strongest opponent; of the season in the first meet. The Vols offered too much opposition for the inexperienced Sewanee team. In this meet Captain Barron bet- tered his old record in the half mile and set a new Sewanee record at two minutes and two and three- tenths seconds. Although the Tigers were able to capture only one first place, they hauled in a num- ber of seconds, indicating that the team had done some work in the short time that the new coach had. Alabama, 70; Sewanee, 42 The next week-end Alabama invaded the lair of the Tiger and took a victory in the cold and rain. The Sewanee men still showed lack of experience except in the middle distances. Captain Barron, Hnppen, and Khy took first places. Eby came in second in the two mile after placing first in the mile. Goodman, Ezzell, Hannum, Bean, Dossett, and Walthour were the other Tigers to take places. Kentucky, 85; Sewanee, 32 On the next week-end the Wildcats of Kentucky defeated the Tiger in his own home. The famous Shipwreck Kelly was high point man of the after- noon, winning twenty-one of his team ' s eighty-five. 90 s THE CAP AND GOWN The FCentuckians took eleven first places and ten seconds from the Tigers. Goodman for Sewanee ran the best race of the day and established a new record in the +40 at 51.1 seconds. Iloppen won first in the 220-yard low hurdles, Mean won the discus, and Captain Barron kept his slate clean by winning the half mile. Sewanee, 77 [ 2 ; Chattanooga, 34 l 2 The Tigers hit their :tride against the University of Chattanooga, and took ten first places from the Moccasins on their own field. Joe Robinson was high point man with twelve points to his credit. Eby ran the two mile in ten minutes and thirty-two seconds, lowering the old Sewanee record of ten ard forty-two, which was held by Roscoe Howser. The Chattanooga boys were only able to capture three first place.;. Barron ran the mile for the first time and came out with a win to his credit. Chatta- nooga failed to enter a relay team, and two Sewanee teams fought it out. Chattanooga, 38; Sewanee, 74 The next week the Moccasins made ano her un- successful attempt against the Tigers and returned to their own campus after a thorough beating from the claws of the Tiger. Captain Barron and Hop- pen were both away at the S. I. C. meet, where both of them ran the best races of their careers. Hoppen ran the 220 low hurdles in 25 flat. Barron won his heat in the preliminaries of the half mil , but was locked in by his opponents in the finals and lost. The absence of these two men did not seem to hinder the remaining Mountaineers. The two teams were composed of the best men from both thi ' varsity and the freshman squads of each school. The Tigers captured nine first places and eight sec- onds. This meet was a glorious finish for a figh.ing Tiger team. Thanks of the University are due t) Mr. Willey, to Captain Barron, and to the members of the team, for they certainly had the real stuff. It was their job to overcome the handicap of an eleventh hour change in coaches, and they did it successfully. Letters were awarded to the following men: Bar- ron, Eby, Bean, Robinson, Goodman, Hopprn, Ez- zell, Walker, Hannum, Morton, Walthour, Keller- man, and Manager Burns. Mr. Allen G. Linco n will coach the track team during the next senron, and Goodman was elected captain of the 1932 trick team. THE CAP AND GOWN Freshman Track The Freshman Tiger Cats took a foraging trip to Nashville to hunt for the scalp of the Commodores, and returned without the prey. They took first in eight events and second in three others to score 53 points to the Commodores ' 59. Cooper began his college track career with fifteen points to his credit. He again led a freshman victory of 6 -46 in the next meet, a dual contest with the University of Chattanooga, hi. total for the afternoon being twenty-four. In a return meet with the Commodore freshmen, the Tiger avenged their former defeat, 59-53. The yearling Hash, Cooper, took eighteen points to average 17 ' _■ per meet. Castle Heights and Baylor lost to the first year men in a three-cornered track meet held on Hardee Field. They tallied thirty-one for Baylor, thirty-five for Castle Heights, and fifty-one for Sewanee. The flashing spikes of Cooper carried him to a 17-point total. He scored in the century, the 220-yard dash, the broad jump, and took a tie in the high jump. His final appear- ance was in a combination meet between Sewanee ' s combined freshman and varsity squads, and those of the University of Chattanooga. The Purples won, 7+-3S. Joe Robinson led the scoring with eleven to beat Cooper ' s ten by one point. Varsitv Golf Minus all aid from the University, with little time to practice due to bad weather, and with a golf course in bad condition, the 1931 Tiger golfers went out on their own to compete for Southern conference honors in the tournament held in Athens, Georgia. In the qualifying rounds water hazards and w inter greens, of which the team had had little experience, accounted for Sewanee high scores. Les Wuescher and Goldie Hudson failed to qualify, and Harwood and Knorr went into the second flight. Harwood lost his first match to Goodes of North Carolina. 5-4, llarwood ' s Nemesis later eliminated Kilpatrick, Vanderbilt star, who made the lowest score in the practice rounds. In his first match Knorr beat Marshall of Vanderbilt, going to an extra green to win. Latimer of Georgia was the acting captain ' s opponent in the second match. They were even on the eighteenth, and both shot even pars through the twenty-first On the twenty-second Latimer took a twenty-foot putt for a birdie to win over Knorr ' s par, and Sewanee ' s golf season was over. THE CAP AND GOWN Imterfratermity Athletics Much interest was exhibited this year in the inter fraternity athletic contests. The Bennett Cup, given annually to the fraternity winning the largest number of points in basketball, baseball, golf, swimming, and tennis was awarded to the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. The Sigma Nu finished in second place, and last year ' s cup winners, Alpha Tau Omega, ended the season in third position. S. A. E. Victorious in Basketball The Sons of Minerva, Bashing a powerful machine and an airtight defense, swept through the field suffering but one loss during the campaign. Charlie Piplar was the thorn in the side of the opponents of the winners. Sigma Nu took second place and Phi Gamma Delta rated third. Bengals Retain Handball Title Joseph Schuessler and Medley Williams walked off with the handball crown for the second consecutive year, defeating Harwood and Gamble of S. A. E. in the finals. The first contest of the finals was closely contested, but the Bengals flashed through to an easv win of 21-9 in ihe second. A. T. O. Captures Golf Title A. T. O. made a clean sweep of golfing honors by winning first and second in that event. Charlie Pollard and Jimmy Bass shut good golf throughout the tournament to advance to the finals. S. A. E. Takes Tennis Crown Duplicating the feat of the A. T. O ' s. in golf, the S. A. E ' s. made a grand slam in tennis by taking both first and second places. Alex Wellford and Dick Butler won their way into the final round, and on their way to the crown suffered little trouble until the semi-finals, when they met stubborn opposition from Soaper, Phi Delta Theta, and Bass, A. T. O. Sigma Nu Wins Swimming Meet Led by Duhose Eggleston, the Sigma Nu- carried awa honors in the annual swimming meet. The Phi Gams trailed the victors all the way to win second place. Points were well scattered, the winners claiming a meagre thirteen points. Baseball Title Goes to S. A. E. During the past season the Sigma Xus suffered their first loss in the great American pastime of baseball, and with it they lost the championship. The deciding game was probably the most exciting of the series. The Sigma Nus began a belated rally in the last inning of their contest with the victors, the rally fell short by one run, and gave the S. A. E ' s. a three-to-two win. The champion S. A. E ' s. exhibited the best fielding club of the league, and although they lacked real slugging ability, came through in the pinches with sufficient hits to win. Sigma Nu, in winning second place, showed themselves the best offensive team. Phi Delt, A. T. O., and Phi Gam tied for third. A. T. O. Triumphant in Track By placing in almost every event the Alpha Tau Omega ' s nosed out Sigma Nu to win the track meet for the second straight year. The victor- totalled 51 points, and second took 48. Kappa Sig finished in third place with 35 points. mm M THE CAP AND GOWN Varsity Tennis Bl ' RWEI.l The Tiger tennis season was a marked success since Captain Teddy Burwell brought to the Moun- tain the first Southern Conference championship in many a year. He won the title under the hardest conditions. Teddy was trailing Yeomens of North Carolina under a scorching New Orleans sun with scores of 5-7 and 4-6. He had not yet becorn: acclimated to the heat of the far South, being used to the cool mountain air. He came lrom behind in a dazzling display of court generalship to win, 5-7, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0, 6-1. The netmen opened the season with their tradi- tional rivals, Vanderbilt, to win before home folks, 4-0. On the next day the Purple team defeated the strong Birmingham-Southern team, 6-0. Miller and Bieman, playing singles and doubles for the visitors, later became S. I. A. A. champions. The team left the latter part of April on their trip through the Carolinas and Georgia. Their first match was with Myers Park Club in Charlotte. The match was called a draw as both teams won three matches each. The next stop was in Chapel Hill, where the Tigers were defeated by Bryan Grant, national claycourt champion, and company. The inexperienced Sewanee team could do nothing with North Carolina ' s array of title holders, and came out on the short end of a 6-0 ccore. North Carolina later demonstrated that she had the best team in the country by defeat ing Princeton, Army, Harvard, and ale. The next match was with the Blue Devils of Duke. Sewanee again lost, this time, 4-2. Burwell accounted for a win in the singles, and with Hare decisively de- feated Rogers and Jones. Sewanee then boarded the Pullman for Columbia, S. C, where they threw away a match to the Gamecocks by another 4-2 score. The next day found the Tigers in Atlanta, where they met the strong Georgia Tech netmen. The match ended in a 3-3 tie. Aside from the brilliant play of Bur- well, Hare lost a match by counts of 6-1, 15-17, 7-9. The match lasted from two in the afternoon until after six at night. The next day Sewanee was the guest of the University of Georgia, but the match had to be called off because of the bad temper of old Jupe Pluvius. Sewanee led the Bulldogs by a few games when the contest was called. The Tiger next appeared in Chattanooga, where they blanked the Moccasins, 6-0, in a match started after fixe in the afternoon. Returning to the Mountain and remain- ing for a few days ' practice, the Tiger again entrained for a road trip. The Crimson Tide of Alabama swept over the Purple, 4-2. Birmingham-Southern again lost to tin- Tiger, 4-2, and then the team split. Burwell and Hare proceeded to the Crescent City, where the former won the championship. Fraternities THE CAP AND GOWN The Pan Helleoic Council HE Pan-Hellenic Council is composed of two rep- resentatives of each of the national fraternities at Sewanee. Acting under the authority of a charter granted it by the University, it is the body which governs all interfraternity relations at Sewanee. From time to time it publishes booklets containing the rules covering all of the phases of fraternity activities on the Mountain. It is significant of fraternity life at Sewanee that Pan-Hellenic has not in the last five years been called upon to censure any of its member bodies. The offices of presi- dent and secretary rotate between the various fraternities, the representatives of each holding office for one year. For the year 1930-1931, these offices were held by Messrs. E. C. Nash and J. P. Thompson for the Delta Tau Delta frater- nity. -SW ' fm THE CAP AND GOWN Sl_ i.

Copywrited in Bulgaria and Siam All yearbooks have to be dedicated, just as all women in novels have to be sloe-eyed. So, we dedicate, consign, assign, and resign this miniature annual to those dear Americans who call Whoopee whoopee and not hoopie. May the nation of rock-garden builders, Buick drivers, and Sunday beef-roast eaters never fall on evil days! AT A MEETING OF THE FACULTY— Dr. Scalely: The meeting will come to order. Gentlemen, you were requested to meet tonight to discuss certain revisions of our curriculum which have been suggested as essential. Dr. Cook: It seems that the necessary change is a reduction in the number of required courses. Since we raised the number of required hours to sixty, I find it almost impossible to schedule all the compulsory courses without conflicts. Also, those who have been so bold as to take an elective course in their first three years, are forced to carry ten required courses their senior year. That takes so much time that we have been compelled to dissolve the Society for the Investigation of Relations with Patagonia and the Artillery Club. Prof. Haden: Yes, gentlemen, I agree that we should have less required courses. What good does it do to have so much attention devoted to classical languages? Everyone knows that they are dead; we can develop our vocabularies by read- ing the dictionary. I propose that we abolish the requirements for languages, philosophy, and Bible. This would give us money for an assistant in the social science department, and time to have more required work of that kind. We could then re- quire all students to take Art of Business I, II, III, as well as accounting, bookkeeping, and How to Get Rich. Dr. Pantaloon: Although I agree with Mr. Haden that the number of required subjects is too great, I differ with him on the method of reduc- tion. Since English is the one really cultural study, I propose that it be the only required study. The end in view is that after three years of re- quired work the best students may be selected for special training, in the hope of developing a mind able to understand the meaning of Neo-Human- ism. This plan has the further advantage that with the money saved from the other professors ' salaries another English assistant might be em- ployed, so that I would have my time free to de- bate that we have progressed since the Stone Age, and, perhaps, to lecture on True Confessions. Chaplain Terry: Since this is a Christian school, it semes that we should have more training in Christian manhood. I propose that we increase the requirements in Bible. It is essential that we teach Bible, anyway, for failure to do so means loss of Mrs. Tattler ' s endowment for the upkeep of the flags in the Chapel. I am sure the other professors will be willing to decrease the require- ments in their departments. Dr. Tear: Gentlemen, what this school needs is another assistant in the social science department, but I believe he should be in history instead of economics, as Mr. Haden suggested. We need instructors in political science and civics. The schoolmarms have turned out these wretched johnnies in appalling ignorance, and they need instruction in history, which is the study of civil- ization and culture. Mr. Swallow: The whole situation is the re- sult of the way things are done under the influence (Continued on Page 170) SENIORS FREDDIE GURGLAN Freddie graduates after only seven years ' ex- posure. When he was eighteen his father called him to one side, give him a hundred bucks and suggested that travel broadens the mind. MOSE KELLY Mose passes from the School of Fine Arts Jani- toring this June. The only kind of cuts he knows anything about are those between two book covers. He is a member of the Wets, the Green Pea Club, Thimble and Needle, and Pi Gamma Mu. PANSY BROOKS Pansy majored in piano and football. In 1929 he was awarded the title of Grand Old Man of Jantzen Bathing Suits. He goes from here to Rochester, Minnesota, where the Mayo Brothers are going to do something about Pansy ' s ears being too far apart. AT A MEETING OF (Continued from of the Methodist Church and Prohibition in these miserable states of Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mis- sissippi. The solution of the problem is to give up all classes and become cultured by meeting in small groups to speak French. Ah, how cultured Europe is! Coach Harmony: This whole discussion, gen- tlemen, misses the true purpose of this Univer- sity, which is to maintain athletics. I suggest that all required classes be abolished for the benefit of the football players. They should be given nine hours per term in coaching, provided they make the team. This would enable them to return to school indefinitely without embarrassing the dean THE FACULTY— Page 169) by forcing him to retract his regulations on re- admission, overcutting, etc. All: I object! My course is essential! It must be required of all students. Dr. Cook: It is apparent that we cannot agree on the reduction of the number of hours. I move that to satisfy the athletes we make coaching a re- quired subject also. This is the true spirit of com- promise, since it satisfies nobody. Dr. Scalely: The motion is carried. This makes the number of required hours sixty-nine. Does anyone suggest any further subjects which could be added to the list? STATION XYZ BROADCASTS THE SEWANEE DANCES FOREWORD c J As you all know, Sewanee Dances are the best in the South. We never fail to hare a leading orchestra and charge five dollars per dance to unsuspecting collegians. Our dances are always patronized by the best girls, and we have absolutely no drinking. Sewanee is heaven when the dances are here, as one young lady put it. It is heaven all the time, especially at 11:30 M. W. F. Good evening, friends of the invisible audience. I am having the pleasure of announcing to you the Sewanee Dances, held at the beautiful Uni- versity Gym. Johnny Scamp and his Melodians are playing, and the big hall is decorated with twelve Japanese lanterns. While Mr. Scamp is playing that irresistible piece, You Came to Me From Out of Nowhere, I will endeavor to give you a running account of the famous personages here. Just as I was speaking, Dr. Finney walked past with a beautiful Southern beauty on his arm. I just saw him break in on one of the undergrad- uates. He is having an enjoyable time, laughing and joking to his partner. Before the affair is over I hope to have him speak to you. Right in front of me is a girl who is from Nashville. I just heard her say she loves Sewanee dances, only a Nashville girl would be so conspicuous. To my left is die head proctor. He has on some sort of badge to distinguish him from the rest of the fel- lows. I have been told that he patrols the floor and tells wayward gentlemen to go home and sleep it off. Just passing the door is Sheriff Jackson. He sticks around to see that the liquor is not stolen from the boys ' cars. § % — ' () . Pardon me, folks, but that was a Sewanee boy who wanted to say hello. I am afraid that he is in no condi- tion for such affairs. I saw the head proctor (the guy with the badge) tell him to go home and get another drink — I ' m sorry, I meant go home and sleep it off. § %— ' () %. Pardon me again— that is another Sewanee boy. He wants ten mil- lion people to hear his voice. He says he sings in the Glee Club, and that he once broadcasted. There was a bit of commotion at the door just now, but I see that Ticket Collector Blair has the sitchiashun well in hand. The head proctor just told another proctor to save him a drink. They are playing the Grand March now, folks, and a boy in the second line is talking mighty sweet to his partner. Another boy, over in the corner, can hardly touch the ground with his hat, if he still had it on. §£%— ()%. That is just another Sewanee boy. What — the dance is over? Hardly anybody is here yet, but the dance is really over. This programme came to you through the courtesy of the Liddel and Scott, publishers of Supreme Greek Lexicons, and trans- lation used exclusively by Charles Crenshaw. Lis- ten closely, folks, and you can hear that great big Yea! Sewanee ' s Right! § %_ ' () %. Oh, just another Sewanee boy. EXPLANATION With a keen eye to service the Cat and Clown has compiled a handy reference page to the va- rious fraternities at Sewanee. All information herein contained is strictly confidential as well as authoritative. It required our research depart- ment many moons and necessitated the use of very expensive machinery to verify these facts, but here they are. Alpha Tau Omega Alpha Tau Omega was founded at V. M. I. It is generally rumored that the founding occurred on a very foggy night and that the founders had difficulty in seeing each other. This tradition of carelessness has survived, as the motto of the fra- ternity now is, Pledge the man. We want to know what he ' s like. K appa Sig ma Like the turnip, Kappa Sigma got its start in life behind the barn and, like the turnip, it grew and it grew. ' Till now, ladies and gentlemen, step right this way and see the greatest conglomeration of Modern Greeks. Only ten cents or a dime. It has an aim in life, however, even if it is just to get through one more day. Phi Delta Theta Phi Delta Theta has some alumni, but for sev- eral years has been looking for an active chapter. With her new house finished she is all dressed up, but we doubt that she will go very far, especially with Barron and Ezell gone. The Phi Delts are distinguished by the fact that every ten years one stays in school long enough to become a senior. Delta Tau Delta Delta Tau Delta has a tradition, but does not bother to get anything else. Thus college life to a Delta becomes a mere social whirl with now and then a steak cooked in the Delta kitchen thrown Kappa Alpha Kappa Alpha was founded one Saturday night halfway between Monteagle and Sewanee. For this reason they always hold their meetings on Saturday night. They have a pretty pin and are strictly Southern. Phi Gamma Delta Phi Gamma Delta had a Texas complex, but traded it in on a Kansas one. What other things they have on their mind is was impossible to find out, as they built their house under a hill and then put a wall around it. Sigma Alpha Epsilon Sigma Alpha Epsilon is a society that builds houses so pictures of Bobby Jones and Rudy Vallee will have walls to hang on. Aside from their elephantine chapters the most distinguishing fea- ture of the fraternity is the tenacity with which they continue to pledge Memphis boys, even in the face of many adverse results. It evolved at the University of Alabama. Sigma Nu In cigarettes it ' s taste, but in athletics it ' s Sigma Nu. Brains, too; just look at the Phi Beta Kappas and Purple editors. However, at last reports Sig- ma Nu had no plans for the future, as they have to wait to see what a new year will bring. Pi K appa Phi Pi Kappa Phi is really a literary society dis- guised as an athletic training camp. For several years now she has said, Just you wait, but we are still waiting. She was founded at Charleston, but has since lived that fact down. Royal Bengal Fraternity The Royal Bengal Fraternity has been noted for its optimism. We heard that they were going to petition the Ku Klux Klan next. THE WHIRL OF SPORTS AT SEWANEE PROLOGUE Lest any casual visitor should pass through Se- manee and, observing the air of quiet serenity that reigns here, conclude that here lives a race of dreamers, the Cat and Clown has at great pains and expense gathered the opinions of some of our most respected citizens on the question of athletics. FOOTBALL AT SEWANEE Doctor Finney says: Officer! Officer! Where are you going with that boy? Why, look here, you can ' t do that. Good gracious, man, he ' s just here to see us play ' Bama! What if he did drop a bottle in the lobby? Mr. Martin says: Like everything else Amer- ican, football has taken on a commercial aspect. I am sure that to an English gentleman, with many of whom I am acquainted, it is a most re- pulsive profanation of sport. Take the spirit of Bulwerps Alfingalphin, that great Oxford guard, for instance. When reproached by a friend for carrying a bottle of Johnnie Walker into every game and taking a drink between plays, he calmly and most reasonably replied, ' Why, if football in- terfered with my drinking, I would give up foot- ball ' . Now here we have the true amateur spirit: here a game that a gentleman might delight in. Dr. Ware says: Football? Ah, yes, a grea sport that! Why, young man, that game has been played for centuries, although of course not in the form now used. You just take one of my history courses, or ask my good friend Hannon if you want to know how football originated. Dean Baker says: Football is one of the great- est factors in bringing about a closer feeling be- tween the faculty and the student body. Take me, for instance; I almost feel like a father to every football player. In fact, a day never passes in which one or two don ' t drop in at my office. Kayden says: Football, like everything else, is basically dependent on economics. Henry George has already alluded to this fact, and I would show you the passage if I hadn ' t already used it to prove that the five-year plan was fundamentally sound. Now if coaches would only use graphs, the game could be reduced to a much more scien- tific basis. For instance, let this line represent the unearned increment gained by use of a fake pass TENNIS AT SEWANEE Taylor says: A man is as good as his stomach. A square meal is as necessary an ingredient to a good game as a racquet. Knickerbocker says: Now in tennis I have never ceased to experiment and also to try to apply the lessons learned by Ulysses in watching the oars of his boat. This, of course, is of vital importance if one is a conscientious neo-humanist (or is it Neo-humanist?) . For instance, if you make a bad shot with your favorite racquet, throw it away and try a broom. Why, I know a man who, except for this method, would never have found out that he played best with an ice-tea spoon. GOLF AT SEWANEE Dr. Baker said: Ah! Ah! And then we ran. Major McKellar says: Why, there ' s nothing to it. Any man who plays that game has a bee in his bonnet. It ought to be unconstitutional, and next year I shall prove that it is in my classes. Eason says: In tennis it ' s power, but in cigar- ettes it ' s Picayunes. Ezell says: Well, boys, when I get through with this meeting, maybe I can tell you something about it. Barron says: Ya ask Teddy. He knows. SMILE, OARN YOU, SMILE! EDITED FOUR TIMES A YEAR-BY REQUEST S. S. Teacher: Johnny, did Noah bring the worms into the Ark in pairs? Johnny: No, in apples. My mother-in-law was at death ' s door. ' Have a cigar? Close but no cigar. Freshman men should be called Moses. Why? Because they are frequently found in bullrushes. Where did I come from? asked the rosebud. The stalk brought you, answered the rose. I ' ve heard that Cupid strikes the match Which sets the world aglow; But where does Cupid strike the match? That ' s what I want to know. Man wants but little here below — But woman — Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
