' x c PEPICATII©!! TO 1, OF THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH AT SEWANEE, TENNESSEE The First Founders, Bishop Otey, Bishop Polk, and Bishop Elliot had a high Vision of a UniVersit) in which education should be united v ith christian principles. When they built this University it v7as significant that they built it upon a mountain — as if it v9ould give out light to the surrounding Valleys and lov lands. These men began a noble v7ork and the University today stands as a monument to their Vision and zeal. ' .v H. l V A James Hervey Otey was the first of the Founders to give definite thought to a University in the South formed by a united action of the states. His first action was the recording in the Diocesan Convention of resolutions con- cerning a theological and classical school. The next year, 1833, he was elected Bishop of Tennessee, and was con- ' secrated in 1834. In 1833 he met Leonidas Polk and com- municated his ideal to him. From that time on Polk car- ried the burden of founding the University. Leonidas Polk was a graduate of West Point with honors. Even in the years he was in the Military Acad- emy he was interested in education in the country. When he graduated from West Point he was oflFered a professor- ship in Amherst College. He almost accepted, but did not, and remained with the army. In 1827 he resigned his com- mission and entered the Seminary at Alexandria, Virginia. During the years his interest in education did not die, and in 1852 he began to study European institutions; the result of this study was his letter to the Southern Dioceses about a university. Stephen Elliot was a graduate in law before he be- came a minister. Later he studied for the ministry, be- came a priest and at the age of 33 was first Bishop of Georgia. He became interested in Polk ' s proposal, and in the early days of the University he was instrumental in raising money to build the foundations of Sewanee. f ' A ' ?l E®®ik n Inception of Sev anee A University is an Alma Mater, knowing her children one by one: not a foundry, a mint, or a tread- mill. The conception of the University of the South arose in the mind of Rev. James H. Otey. In 1832 the Tennessee diocese recorded his resolutions, which stated the need in the South for a school which should further Christian education. But it was not until three years later that these resolutions took definite form. In 1834 Otey was conse- crated Bishop of Tennessee. In 1835 in his address to the conven- tion, he says: ... a project has been set on foot by the friends of the church in the states of Tennes- see, Mississippi, and Louisiana for founding and endowing a Protest- ant Episcopal college. ... It is to be distinctly a church institution and must be near enough to these states as to serve conveniently their sons. So it is evident that between 1832 and 1835 he had been working to- ward the ideal of a University of the South. But he was not to go on alone; there were others. % cva ( CHARLES TODD QUINT ARD Rt. Rev. Charles Todd Quintard, M.D., S.T.D., LL.D., was one of the most active of the men who took upon themselves the re-establishment of the University of the South after the devastation of the War. It was due to his success in securing financial aid, particularly in England, with the help of Dr. Tremlett, Mr. Gladstone, bishops, and lords, that the University grew from shacks to such buildings as St. Luke ' s Hall, built in 1878 by the gift of Mrs. Manigault. Maj. George Rainsford Fairbanks, C.S.A., was known as the Last of the Founders. He became a trustee of the University in 1857, and he never missed a meeting of the Board of Trustees until his death in 1906. He served from 1867 to 1880 as University Commissioner of Buildings and Lands. In 1905 he published his History of the University of the South, covering the period from 1857 to 1906. To the University he was a tower of strength in an hour of need. O cStLicrSiNAhiS- ' rv£Uv7 -=a£ V5t, V ' - - V VV f ' 4 K. . . :; ii 1 ! ' .

AUGUSTINE ' S CHAPEL The first University building was St. Augustine ' s Chapel. Its cornerstone was laid August, 1867, with great ceremony. This ceremony was just, be- cause St. Augustine ' s was to nurture the Univer- sity for many years in its capacity as both chapel and class room. During the years it was enlarged by building on to it, so that it grew out like a tele- scope. By 1910 stone buildings had arisen for classes and a holiday was declared and students pulled down the old chapel. % he Qap and Qown, 1932 Rt. Rev. Thomas F.

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. Its functions are primarily financial, but it may deal with any phase of the University interests. Page 20 S ie Qap and Qoivriy 1932 Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor Chancellor Bishop Gailor has been officially connected with Se- wanee for over forty years as professor, chaplain, vice-chancellor, and chancellor. He has never ceased to be a source of inspiration to every man who goes to Sewanee. While chaplain of the University he refused a bishopric, preferring to cast his lot with the University.

Finney Vice-Chancellor Dr. Finney was elected a regent in 1913 and vice-chancellor in 1921, and has always served his alma mater with devo- tion and passionate idealism. It is largely through his un- tiring efforts that the University has been able to thus far survive the present economic depression. Last year, on the completion of his tenth year of service, he was presented with a testimonial of appreciation signed by representatives of every Sewanee organization. Page 22 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 Dr. George Merrick Baker Dean 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.

Morgan Soaper Tuchaway Innis LaRoche Jenkins St. Luke ' s The Proctorial System is maintained at Sewanee for the purpose of enforcing discipline. The Proctors are chosen from the outstanding members of the Junior and Senior Classes by the vice-chancellor with the advice of the retiring board and the matrons. Since the Proctors are taken from the student body they 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 Proc- tor is given jurisdiction over one dormitory, although their duty als o extends to the university campus. Page 26 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 Charles W. Cross Seniors C.

The Honor Council is made up of seven members, two of which are elected from each of the two upper classes and one from both the Sophomore and Freshman Classes. All infringements of the Honor System are brought before this body. After careful consideration the Honor Council can advise the faculty as to the punishments neces- sary.

In this it holds a unique position at Sewanee. It consists of two members from each class, elected by popular vote. The Theological School also furnishes two members. This year the Ves- try sponsored an excellent program of speakers throughout the year. The Vestry also sponsored the Introduction to Sewanee program and made several advances toward the Chapel Completion Fund.

Page 29 Q J f ( y - f e 5 ' ' @ i) - 2 REBEL ' S REST Rebel ' s Rest was built September, 1866, on the site of Bishop Polk ' s home, which had been destroyed during the War. It was built by Major Fairbanks as a resting place after the struggles of the war, and that he might be near the place he loved most — Sewanee. This fine, cultured home was one of the many homes that added sweetness and light to the wild Mountain top. It stands today, enlarged and renovated, the oldest home in Sewanee. r 6 a ?l Inception of Sev?anee The town of Oxford began to ex- ist about the tenth century, long before there was a University there. In 1133 Robert Pullen in- stituted theological lectures in Oxford, and a University grew up in the town. Not in the way a University is usually founded, but many little colleges sprang up around a theological central pole. These little colleges clus- tered around the mother school, each one suddenly springing up after it had existed for many years as a secular institution. For these little colleges had as their foundation groups of men, sim- ilar to a fraternity group today. As these fraternities grew old- er, they gradually became edu- cational in nature and were final- ly established as colleges. Most Oxford colleges arose this way. For many centuries Oxford ex- isted and lived its lazy existence, contributing nothing to England or to the literary world. This was not the great Oxford of later years, which influenced the 19th century so strongly. Book HE ( General Edmund Kirby-Smith, C.S.A., was Professor of Mathematics in the University of the South from 1875 until his death in 1893. He was more than a Professor of Mathematics. He was a trained botanist and a lover of nature. He sacrified cheerfully his small salary at times when the Univer- sity had little money. His home was Powhatan Hall, famous for its genial hospitality and its atmosphere of courtesy and refinement. Tfio W ; Brigadier-General Josiah Gorgas, C.S.A., served in both the Mexican and Civil Wars. He was chief of ordnance of the Confederate armies and did fine work. After the war he came to Sewanee as headmaster of the Junior Department. He became Professor of Engineering in 1870. In 1872 he succeeded Bishop Quintard as Vice-Chancellor. He distinguished this office by his noble work. His strong hand held the University together during her most trying period. (b dv oCy c5tLi;crS5NAi 2 ' -c) G v£Uv7? a.£ M, : iTV (L §3 OTEY HALL Otey Hall was built on the site which is now occu- pied by Walsh Hall. It was the first school build- ing to be completed and used on the campus. Bishop Quintard started construction early in the summer of 1866, and before summer was over the building was finished. Bishop Quintard had secured the necessary funds from gifts by various people, including a gift of a thousand dollars from Mrs. Barnum of Baltimore. he Qap and Qown, 1932 John Morgan Soaper B.S.

Page 62 ¥Ila©®E®in(SsiE Theological School On October 23, 1856, Polk deliv- ered an address to the Southern Bishops calling to their attention the need for the union of the states to found an institution which should further Christian education. Dr. William P. DuBose says of this institution, It was one of an object of raising up from sons of the soil men who may preach the unsearch- able riches of Christ. Thus was a theological school born. The first building of the University of the South was Otey Hall, built for the accommodation of the theological students and professors. In 1871 W. P. DuBose became Chaplain and Professor of the University and next year began instruction of graduates of the University who de- sired to enter the ministry. Thus the first theological work was tuto- rial. In 1873 George T. Wilmer, father of Dr. C. B. Wilmer, came to assist Dr. DuBose. And in 1876 the foundation stone of St. Luke ' s Hall was laid. Mrs. Manigault gave the money. In 1878 Rev. Telfair Hodgson was elected Dean of the Seminary. In the following years St. Luke ' s gave to the ministry many fine men. cSo ' Sfie Qap and Qoivn, ig 2 Ide)Oe) eOeT9eaeoeOe)cI Facility of the Theological School The Rev. George Boggan Myers The Rev.

Such attacks as the Review made could not fail to bring forth a re- sponse. In 1810 Edward Cople- stone published his Reply to the Calumnies of the Edinburgh Re- view. Thus the friends and the foes of Oxford continued the bat- tle. In 1831 Sir William Hamil- ton contributed to the Review the first of four essays, which appeared until 1834. Just at this time there was travelling in Europe a young American priest named Leonidas Polk. He was travelling for his health, and in his travels was visit- ing European universities. Thus, while the discussion of Oxford was at its height, he was in the middle of the field of activity. He could not have failed to have been in- tensely interested and deeply im- pressed. He came to Europe in 1831 and left in 1832, but he car- rie d with him a high ideal of edu- cation. % - E®®k m rvo The Rev. Telfair Hodgson, D.D., LL.D., was the first Dean of the Theolog- ical Department. He came to this position in 1878. He was chosen Com- missioner of Finance in that same year. Thus it was his task to manage the finances of the University in a time of severe financial stress. He did this successfully, but not without the use of his own funds. In 1876 he and his wife presented the University with 10,000 for a library, which was the first stone building in Sewanee. ' lO William Porcher DuBose, D.D., S.T.D., D.C.L., accepted the two posts as Chaplain and Professor at Sewanee in 1871. He was Chaplain for eleven years and Professor of Moral Science for thirty-six years. He was known and loved by all at Sewanee as the Doctor. He was theologian, prophet, and writer. His published works are many: among them are High Priest- hood and Sacrifice, The Gospel in the Gospels, The Ecumenical Coun- cils, The Reason of Life.

Our first Vice-Chan- cellor named it for the metropolitan of Canada, who joined in Bishop Quintard ' s consecration in Philadelphia. Fullford Hall was built on the site which now contains Benedict Hall. It stood next door to Rebel ' s Rest, the home of Major Fairbanks. Benedict Hall is the rebuilt Fullford Hall, and was for many years the home of Dr. Wiggins. he Qap and Qown, 1932 Professor George F.

CLARK Coach Harry E. (Hec) Clark, serving his first year as Varsity Football Mentor, turned out the best Tiger team of the last ten years. Mr. Clark is a former Sewanee star. Since 1922 he has been a member of the coaching staff, as Freshman Coach. During this time he turned out several famous teams, the Freshman teams of 1928 and of 1929 being among them. COACH ALLEN LINCOLN Coach Lincoln, after starring at the University of Missouri, as- sumed the duties of Assistant Football Coach last fall and aided in leading the team to suc- cess. He has recently been ap- pointed Head Basketball Coach and will serve in that capacity also next year. Page 72 he Cap and Qown, 1932 COACH LUCIEN EMERSON Coach Lucien Emerson has directed the des- tinies of Sewanee basketball machines for the past several years. During this time he has turned out some very capable teams, and it will be with regret that he will not be with the team next year. His position as Secretary to the Chattanooga Lookouts demands his whole time now. COACH GORDON CLARK Coach Clark is coach of the Freshman football team. He does extremely well. He has to work under the handicap of a dearth of ma- terial. His greatest service to the University is in his capacity as Graduate Manager of Athletics. In this position he not only con- trols the competitive sports, but also the intra- mural sports. And this last year, under his guidance, intramural sports have had their most successful year. Page 73 he Qap and Qown, 1932 I©©0e)ae0e)e@0©0e)©0cl THE VARSITY SQl AD Kesmme ©f Season The Purple Tigers from Se vanee enjoyed their best football season in a great number of years by winning six games, tying one and losing three. Not too much praise can be laid on the varsity and an equal amount of praise goes to Coach Harry Clark and his entire staff. Perhaps the spirit of both coaches and team had much to do with the undying fight that the team put up against tremendous odds on successive Saturday afternoons. Not only did this team cover themselves with glor , but several individuals forced attention from the sporting world. Perhaps the most outstanding was Jay D. Patton, a member of the varsity for three years and who was p ' aced at a tackle position on the All-Southern and received honorable mention for All-American. When the curtain rang down in New Orleans last November, eight seniors laid aside their helmets for the last time. They were Captain Abe Phillips, Otis Jeffries, Jody Kellerman, Julius French, Big Patton, Charlie Eby, Donald Blair, and Archie Sterling. The los:. of these men will leave a tremendous gap to be filled by the reserves next year. In the opening game, on September 19, Alabama Teachers lost to the Tigers, 18-0. Joe Gee, sensational sophomore fullback, made all three touchdowns for the victors. Andy Stimson was perhaps the most outstanding lineman of the day. Tennes :ee Tech visited the Mountain on September 26. They were turned back, 24-7. The Tech touchdown came after Wellford and Gee had made touchdowns for Sewanee. Shortly after the visitors had scored on a long pass, Wellford, on a triple reverse, made a nice run for the final score of the game. The Tigers entrained for the next game in Memphis, with the Southwestern Lynx furnishing the opposition. The Tigers played poorly and had to be content with a scoreless tie. The tally book showed that the Lynxmen outplayed the Sewanee team. Page 74 he Qap and Qown, 1932 The next Saturday found the Tigers lined up against the University of Virginia Cavaliers in Charlottesville. On the first few plays of the game Sewanee, with four first downs, marched to the Virginia 20-yard stripe, where the ball was lost on a fumble. Later Sewanee again was able to penetrate the Virginia line, but the Cavaliers entrenched themselves in terra firma and the Tiger advance was checked. Happy Jeffries decided to take matters into his own hands during the last quarter, and after the ball had been worked to the Virginia 15-yard line the Sewanee halfback booted the ball thirty-five yards at a sharp angle to score the first Conference victory of the season. Glass and Stimson showed well together as they stopped all ' irginia plays on their side of the line. On October 10 Sewanee journeyed down the Mountain to Chattanooga, where Coach Clark ' s men defeated the University of Chattanooga, 6-0. A drive late in the last quarter by Jeffries, Gee, and Castleberry put the ball on the Chattanooga 46-yard stripe. On the next play Gee, behind perfect interference, went off tackle for the entire yardage. Jeffries failed to kick the extra point. October 24 proved an unhappy day for the Sewanee team when they met the University of Alabama at Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama, on the previous Saturday had taken a beating from the University of Tennessee and the desire for revenge plus the Tigers ' inability to hold a wet ball spelled defeat for Sewanee. Jack Morton performed in his usual All-Southern style. It was here that Patton was probably observed by the biggest sport writers in the South, and he gave all the evidence of being All-Southern calibre. Alabama, as usual, with her tre- mendous reserve strength, finally beat the Tigers until the boys from Tennessee allowed the Alabama team to score at will. The final score found Alabama on the long end, 33-0. The Tigers, experiencing the second night game in as many years, emerged victorious over L. S. U., scoring two touchdowns to one for the Louisiana team. Sterling, Thompson, and Clark played the best in the line. The Sewanee team was considerably better than a 12-6 score would indicate, as they made 18 first downs to 6 for L. S. U. As the game ended, Sewanee was in possession of the ball on L. S. U. ' s four-yard line. Castleberry, Wellford, Gee, and Jeffries played the best ball in the backfield. On November 7, at Oxford, Sewanee lined up against Ole Miss, and when the game was over they were on the long end of a 7-0 score. The Purple team got off to a slow start, as the heat bothered them tremendously, and it was the timer ' s whistle that saved the Tiger from being scored on at the half. In the second half the team came back and outplayed Ole Miss. Castle- berry scored for the Tigers and Gee made the extra point when he bucked the ball over. Castle- berry was the star of the game, as it was he who led the rest of the backfield on the sixty-yard march to the only score of the game. November 14 Sewanee again visited Legion Field in Birmingham, where they played Auburn. The entire line starred, holding the Plainsmen time after time in the shadow of their own goal. Hitchcock and Hatfield led the Auburn attack. The Plainsmen were good in the air, which put them in scoring position more than once. The game finally ended with the Tigers on the short end of a 12-0 score. Sewanee ended her season in New Orleans, where she played the national championship con- tenders at the Tulane stadium. The Greenies defeated the smaller Purple team, 40-0. The badly battered Tigers could do nothing with Dawson, Zimmerman, Felts, and company, the boys who later gave the University of Southern California such a scare.

Dawson For ward Alt. Capt. Soaper HAVIS DAWSON, captain of this year ' s basketball team, while not leading a very successful quintet, played a sterling brand of basketball himself throughout the season, although he was handicapped by an in- jured knee. Dawson, in the first Vanderbilt game of the season, scored 17 points in three quarters. He almost duplicated this feat against Vandy in the tilt here on the Mountain, ringing up 13 points in a game featured by the tight defensive play of both teams. During one game this year C ' olcnel tallied 23 points for the Tigers. Throughout the year he played fine basketball and, needless to say. his presence will be greatly missed next season. ALTERNATE CAPTAIN MORGAN SOAPER also wound up his colle- giate career as a basketeer after serving on the varsity for three years. Soaper s play was characterized by a steady, consistent game. While never a high scorer, Red led the assault of the Tigers on the South- western goal and rang up 11 points. In the Ole Miss encounter he played a fine game, stopping the Mississippi forwards time and again. HUGH GOODMAN, too, finished his athletic days at Sewanee during the past season. Goodman was three-year man in basketball and cap- tained the tea.m in his junior year. During his sophomore year Doggie was regarded as one of the best shots in the Southern Conference. Al- though never attaining the same degree cf bri ' liancy of that first year of varsity performance, due to an injured shoulder, he played well. He displayed a fine floor game and was consistently a high point scorer. WARD PHILLIPS played guard on the team. He was not a brilliant or a flashy player; he was steady and dependable. His main forte con- sisted in keeping the members of the opposing team from shooting, a worthy enterprise indeed. He was out during the latter part of the season on account of illness, consequently he never reached a peak of performance. Yet whenever he played he contributed his share toward the general teamwork. Page 80 he Qap and Qown, 1932 I3e6e660©0©e@6x50©61 Castle BERRY Fornvard Beggs Center Lawrence Center Hatch Fornvard Basketball Team WOODBO ' .V CASTLEBEKRY, another sophcmore. surprised even his most confident followers by playing a great game all season. Castleberry is probably the world ' s larg cst forward. Despite the fact that he carried an abundance of avoirdupois with him. his agility and speed compared favorably to every guard he went up against through the season. His mo-5t brilliant performance was against Tu ane, when he ended the con- test with high point honors safely tucked under his belt after having played but about one-half of the game. JAMES BEGGS, playing his first year as a varsity man, turned in a good season. Beggs showed that through the entire campaign he needed experience, and with one year of varsity play behind him he is expected to develop into a powerful cog in the Sewanee hardwood outfit. JACK LAWKENCE, the last of the sophomores on the team this sea- son used his lanky physique to advantage this year and aided Sewanee forwards in scoi ing many points by his ability to take the ball oxt the backboard. Lawrence, too, is lacking in experience, but he is expected to have deprived a great deal of benefit from the experience he acquired in varsity comp- tition this season, and next year he is expected to blossom forth and aid the team a great deal. ED HATCH, alternate captain-elect for next season, finished playing his second year of varsity basketball in a very capable manner. Hatch performed at forward, and while his size somewhat handicapped him, his speed a ad Hoor work made him a muchly- feared basketeer. His scoring ability was above the average and in several tilts this season he carried away high point honors. It is expected that next year he will assist a greatly rejuvenated Tiger machine in coming to the front in Southern basketball circles. JACK MORTON, concluding his second year on the varsity, was honored by his team mates and will serve as captain of the 1932-33 Sewanee aggregation. Morton ' s floor game and his ability to handle the ball made him one of the most valuable men on the team last year. He also dropped in his share of goals in every game and he is looked upon as one of the outstanding men to provide the nucleus for next year ' s team. Capt. Elect Morton Page 81 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 Ed Croslan ' d Football Dudley Hollis Basketball Frank Robbins Track Carl Biehl Equipment Ed Crosland served as Varsity Football Manager during the 193 1 season, and did a good job of it. His attitude toward the team was of the highest order and his capability as manager was shown throughout ths season. He was willing to work both for the good of the team and to cut down on expenses during a lean year financially. Dudley Hollis was Basketball Manager. He was a very efficient manager and an industrious manager, untiring in his efiforts to satisfy the needs of the basketball team. He was liked by all the men on the team and on the whole was a satisfactory manager. Frank Robbins was Manager-elect for the 1932 Track Team. But the A.B.C. decided to drop track as a competitive sport for the time, and Robbins was out of a steady job. But he assisted in working with Winter and Spring sports both for the Varsity and for intramural sports. Carl Biehl, the Equipment Manager, had perhaps the hardest job of all the managers. He had to look aft r all the athletic equipment, consequently he was on the job almost the whole athletic year. Page 82 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 The freshman football season was not a brilliant one, but it was climaxed by a wonderful fight against the Vandy Frosh. The season began with a 52-0 victory over the light team of the Sewanee Military Academy. Swede Nelson was the big noise for the Frosh. Two weeks later the yearlings of the University of Chattanooga came up from the valley to engage the Freshmen. The Chattanooga boj ' s scored on a long pass and won the game, 6-0. The Tiger Cubs outplayed them during the first half but weakened in the second half. The Tracy City High team came up to visit at a most inopportune time — the Frosh were in a bitter mood and trampled the visitors most uncivilly to the tune of 41-0. The next week the young Tigers entrained for Knoxville to play the Tennessee Frosh. They fought successfully during the first half and held the score to 14-0. But the next half there were too many Farmers, four teams of them, in fact. And the game ended 51-7. Sewanee ' s only score came when Beatty blocked and caught an attempted pass and ran 36 yards for a score. The fol- lowing week the youthful Felines went up to battle the Rats of the University of Kentucky. The game was played in a misty rain, and the lighter Sewanee Frosh were handicapped, but fought mightily. Sewanee scored on a long hideout pass from Nelson to Johnson, but Mr. Jeans, a stalwart gentleman, made himself most obnoxious to the Sewanee team and, scoring or helping score 20 points, he led Kentucky to victory. Captain Nelson and four other Sewanee men had to be taken out because of injuries. This was the next to last game on the schedule, and the Tigers returned to the Mountain to prepare for the most important game on the schedule, the Vandy game. The game started on a fairly wet but firm field. Sewanee received and marched the ball sixty-five yards down to to the twenty-yard stripe, but lost the ball. The Tiger was not to be denied, and after a fierce struggle scored on a long pass from Johnson to Nelson. This score enabled them to lead 7-0 at the half. The Vandy Frosh came back strong in the second half and scored 21 points, but near the end of the game the Tiger showed his claws again and scored on a 40-yard pass to Lucas, a beautiful play. The game ended soon after that, and the Tigers came home glad to have made such a fine showing against a heavier and more experienced team. The Freshman basketball season was a fairly successful one. The Freshmen won some fine victories and lost some games by rotten playing. Charlie LeGreve was the outstanding star, he always scored some points, and quite frequently scored 18 to 25 points. He had a dead aim on the basket, and if given a two seconds chance to get his sights adjusted would ring the hoop every time. Mays, Nelson, Rosenthal, and John- son played well. Lucas and Paul Tate also did yeoman service under the Purple colors. There was no Freshman track team, as track was dispensed with this year, but many freshmen participated in intramural sports and achieved fame by their endeavors for dear old Cannon or dear old Phi O Phi. Page 83 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 The Sewanee Tennis Team had its most successful season in many a year. With Captain Teddy Burwell, holder of many championships, the Tigers were either able to win or tie the toughet teams in the Conference. The first match was with Vanderbilt in Nashville. The Purple netters, unused to clay, were only able to tie the Commodores. In Memphis the fo ' lowing day the Sewanee team tied the strong University Club team, 3-3. The following day Sewanee, without the services of Captain Burwell, swept through Southwestern, losing only one match to the Lynx. The next match was to have been with Vanderbilt, but the Commodores failed to put in their appearance and the Tigers took a default 6-0 score. T vo days later found the Tigers matching their wares with the University of Georgia Bulldogs; this ended in another 3-3 tie. Georgia Tech was next on the schedule, and the Tigers again had to be content with a 3-3 tie. Sewanee tying the Tornado netmen ruined a perfect season for the Atlanta aggregation, as they held victories over all the teams that had tied the boys from the Tennessee Mountains. The following day Sewanee played an exhibition match with Emory University and lost, 3-2. The match did not count, however, as Emory played two men who had represented the Universities of Georgia and Florida. After a brief rest the Tigers moved on to Tuscaloosa to meet the I ' niversity of Alabama. The Tidesmen managed to win a draw decision from the Tigers. Wellford played the best tennis of the day when he came from behind to win. Burwell won the other singles and they paired to win the third match for Sewanee. At the Conference meet in New Orleans, Sewanee was represented by Burwell and Wellford. Both men performed splendidly, Wellford advancing to the quarter finals by defeating Keith of Alabama in the first round and then disposed of Charlie Hume, Tulane. After a long match with Hume, Wellford was forced to play Judge Beaver, Georgia star, and lost. Burwell sailed through to the semi-finals by trimming a man from South Carolina, Hazelett of Alabama, Eastman of Tulane. Then the trouble started. Burwell met Ed Sutter in the semi-finals and after a five-set struggle won the right to play Cliff Sutter, number six ranking player of the U. S. Sutter de- feated Teddy in straight sets. Burwell was really out on his feet and was taken to a hospital after the match. On Monday following the closing of the Conference tournament, Sewanee played the Uni- versity of Kentucky Wildcats. The Tigers won a 5-2 decision from the Lexington team. The following week Sewanee closed her schedule with Vanderbilt, who upset the dope and the Tigers also, winning 4-3. Burwell and Wellford played the best tennis of the day for Sewanee. Page 84 he Qap and Qoiun, 1932 The interfraternity athletic contests were as tightly fought this year as has ever been the case since they were inaugurated here on the Mountain. For the second consecutive year the S. A. E. ' s won the Bennett Cup, and with this victory the cup came into their permanent possession, as they were the victors before in 1929. The race this year was not decided until the last event was run off, and then it was that the S. A. E. ' s nosed cut the Sigma Nu ' s. The final standing as to points follows: S. A. E., 50; Sigma Nu, 40; Pi Kappa Phi, 30; A. T. O., 25; Phi Gams, 10; Phi Delt, 5 ; Outlaws, 5 ; the rest of the fraternities failed to register a point. Pi Kappa Phis Win Basketball Flashing a well-drilled team that possessed as its strongest forte a wonderful defense, the Pi Kappa Phis went through the season undefeated and thereby annexed the basketball crown. The race was as close as has been seen on the Mountain, and throughout the season interest was running high, especially as the leading teams thundered down the stretch almost neck and neck. So close was the race that three teams finished in a dead heat for second place, and in the play-off the Sigma Nus won out over the S. A. E. ' :. and the A. T. O. ' s, the S. A. E. ' s winning third place by defeating the A. T. O. ' s in a closely contested battle. A. T. O. ' s Carry OflF Track Honors Presenting a well-balanced track team that placed in every event, the A. T. O. ' s ran away with the track meet for the third straight year. The Sigma Nus finished in second place, being a long way behind the leaders. The Phi Delta Thetas finished in third place, just nosing out three other fraternities. S. A. E. ' s Undefeated in Baseball For the second straight year the S. A. E. ' s won the ba:eball championship. Like the basket- ball race, the batt ' e for supremacy on the diamond was hard fought and was not determined until the final game of the season between the PI Kappa Phis and the S. A. E. ' s. The game resulted in a 2 to i victory for the S. A. E. ' s, and with it went the championship. The Pi Kappa Phis finished in second place and the A. T. O. ' s ended up the season in third place, having defeated the Sigma Nus in a play-off. S. A. E. ' s Capture Tennis Laurels Dailey (S. A. E.), in defeating Tison (S. N.), gave the S. A. E. ' s an additional ten points that eventually proved to be the points needed to clinch the Bennett Cup for his fraternity. Daily defeated Tison easily in the finals, as the 6-1, 6-2 score indicates. During the entire tournament Daily lost but seven games, and proved conclusive ' y that he was supreme in the tourney. Sigma Nus Splash Way to Victory Led by DuBose Egleston, the Sigma Nus annexed the swimming title for the second successive year. The S. A. E. ' s, with Paul Tate as their mainstay, finished in second place. Because of their finish in second position, the S. A. E. ' s cinched the Cup. Up until this meet there had been some Page 85 he Qap and Qown, 1932 doubt as to who the winner of the cup would be, and the S. A. E. ' s surprised everyone in taking second place. Phi Gams Crash Through in Golf The interfraternity golf title went to Billy Knorr of the Fijis, who defeated Frank MacDonald of the Outlaws in the final round. Both MacDonald and Knorr played brilliantly throughout the tournament and a wonderful match ensued when the two clashed in the finals. S. A. E. ' s Annex Handball Title The S. A. E. team of Morey, Two-Gun Hart, and David Clark conquered the other final- ists, Tison and Burns of the Sigma Nus, in straight games and added ten points to the S. A. E. total. In the first game the Sigma Nus extended the victors a great deal, but in the last two tilts the winners breezed on through to victory. Dormitory Track Meet a Success The track meet between the dormitories wa. a great success from every point of view. Each dormitory elected a captain, who assigned events to each man. Each captain obtained the en- thusiastic support of every man in his dormitory. Johnson Hall won the meet with 55 points. Cannon ran a clos e second, with the Brothers Eby taking almost 35 points between them. The older Eby, Charles, frequently referred to as Mussy (pronounced moo.y ) was high point man with 18 points. The younger member of the Eby clan scored 15 points. From Hoffman ' s standpoint the meet was a social success, but that was all, for Hoffman did not score a single point. But the Hoffman boys were more interested in thing:, of religious and spiritual value — who has not heard of the famous Hoffman holy water? It is a common rumor that Ziegler and Hawkins had a track meet between themselves, but it ended in a tie, because o is the smallest number of points that can be made. Great Interest in Intramural Sports More interest was shown in intramural sports this year than ever before. More men came out for them than ever before. Some men trained for the:e events and endeavored to set records in them. Talbot Fields worked and trained for the fraternity track meet and sailed through every event that he entered with flying colors. Ziegler came out and continued to hold his own personal record. Every year he leads the two-mile race through the first lap to finish last. The golf and tennis tournaments were hotly contested, with many entrants showing good form. The Pi Kappa Phi basketball team was a real steamroller. It always rolled through to vic- tory. In many of its games it trailed several points with only a coup ' e of minutes to go; each time it rolled on and won the game. Other teams showed fine ability. The Sigma Nus had much individual talent, but lacked teamwork. The S. A. E. ' s were good, as were the A. T. O. ' s. On the whole the intramural season was a fine one, and the season of 1932-3 promises to be a more interesting one. Page 86 ' ©he Qap and Qown, 1932 Athletics have played a long and prominent part in Sewanee ' s history. In 1869, baseball was inaugurated with a game between the Sewanees and the Hardees, which held the place intermural teams do today. The first intercollegiate contest was in 1877 with Vanderbilt, destined to be the Tiger ' s arch rival. The nineties witnessed the inception of track and football, in both of which Sewanee was to gain highest recognition throughout the South. And so, in 1891 occurred the inauguration of the most colorful series in the hstory of Southern football — the clashing of the Commodore and the Tiger. Twice during that year the Purple bowed to the Black and Gold, but in the following year a regular coach was secured and those two defeats avenged by as many victories. Thus began the glorious period of Sewanee ' s football history, which lasted until the World War. The teams of those years nearly all enjoyed a position at the very top of Southern football. There are two elevens, however, which stand out, and one of them established a record which has never been equalled in the history of football. That team was the famous championship aggregation of 1899. In ' 98 all four games on the schedule had been won, and the streak was con- tinued throughout the following season. Not only did the Southern champions win every game on an almost mcredible schedule and roll up the tremendous total of 327 points to their opponents ' 10, but they played five games in five different towns in six days. This exhibition of iron-like endurance began on November 9, 1899, against the University of Texas at Austin. Then followed Texas A. and M. at Houston, a hop to New Orleans to play Tulane, then over to Baton Rouge to clash wth L. S. U., and a final jump to Memphis, where the Tigers were pitted against Ole Miss. The record follows: Sewanee 12 Sewanee 32 Sewanee 51 Sewanee 54 Sewanee 12 Sewanee 10 Sewanee 23 Sewanee 34 Sewanee 12 Sewanee 71 Sewanee 11 Sewanee 5 Georgia Georgia Tech Tennessee S. P. U University of Texas .... Texas A. and M Tulane Louisiana Mississippi Cumberland Auburn 10 North Carolina o Page 87 ' S ie Qap and Qown, 1932 Page 88 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 In that same year the baseball team won the seven games comprising its sched- ule. The gymnasium team is mentioned prominently, too, at that time, but track was about to suffer an eclipse, not to be revived until the season of 1917. The Purple continued on the crest of Southern football, including an 11-5 victory over Vanderbilt in 1902, but in 1906 and 1907 there came heart-breaking defeats at the hands of the Commodores, after having swept through otherwise undefeated seasons. In the latter year, particularly, Sewanee ' s record was very good, except for that defeat in the Turkey Day classic by a 17-12 score. The team of the following year failed to scale the heights of the previous season, but in the last game the fast-sailing Commodores were tied 6-6. In was in 1909 that Sewanee stood for the second and last time undisputedly supreme in Southern football. With poor preseason prospects, a great team which defeated everything in its path except Princeton, one of the elite of the East, was developed. Here is their record: Sewanee 64; S. P. U Sewanee 0; Princeton 20 Sewanee 15; Georgia Tech Sewanee 15; L. S. U 6 Sewanee 38; Castle Heights Sewanee 12; Auburn 11 Sewanee 16; Vanderbilt 5 About this time basketball gained a place in the University athletic limelight, which it has retained with gradually increasing prominence ever since. Though never quite regaining the same heights which he had so agilely scaled, the Tiger upheld his prestige until about 1914. In that year, despite a 14-13 triumph over the Black and Gold of Vanderbilt, a period of decline began in football, during which we can find comparatively few outstanding victories. If this was true of football, however, track came into its own with a rush. The speedsters and strong men of the Purple swept to their first S. I. A. A. champion- ship in 1919. The following year they repeated this performance, and at the Penn. relays were the first to bring Southern track into the national spotlight by making a very creditable showing. In 1924 came one of Sewanee ' s greatest football victories. The Tiger, rated the underdog, came from his mountain lair and with a mighty paw crushed the championship hopes of Vandy ' s fine team. When the final whistle blew, it was as a death knell to Commodore hopes. The final score was 16-0. In 1924, too, the track team signalized the end of Sewanee ' s participation in S. I. A. A. meets Page 89 he Qap and Qoiun, 1932 by winning the championship, thereby gaining permanent possession of the Tech Cup, as they had already annexed the title on two previous occasions. From that time to this has been but a few brief years. Baseball has been abandoned at Sewanee since the World War as an intercollegiate sport; basketball has risen for a short time to a position of some repute; and now football, having long stayed near the bottom among so many bigger and wealthier opponents, shows most encouraging signs of a renaissance with a good season in 1931. May the Purple once more be raised in triumph and the Tiger his lost supremacy regain! Page 90 Inception of Sev?anee In 1833 Leonidas Polk met James H. Otey, who was at that time first bringing forth his ideas of a Uni- versity of the Southern States. This idea struck a responsive chord in Polk ' s breast. Polk was extremely interested in education, so interested that before he entered the Seminary he considered an offer of a profes- sorship at Amherst College. His mind had been stirred by his travels in Europe at the time of the edu- cational battle centered around Ox- ford. Polk was more interested be- cause he saw that there was not one good University in all America. He realized the poor quality of American literature, and believed the cause to be the lack of good Universities. He was unable to take any steps toward founding a Uni- versity in the succeeding years. He was too busy with his enormous missionary jurisdiction of the Southwest, and had no time to think of founding a University, but the idea remained uppermost in his mind. About 1850 he was relieved of many of his burdens and imme- diately he began to study educa- tional systems preparatory to his public announcement of his idea.

In 1901 the building was enlarged. It has also been remodeled, due to the generosity of Mrs. James L. Hough- teling. Now Thompson Hall is known as the Union; it contains a sandwich shop and a sound movie. A Reprint from ' 93 Cap and Gown. The history of fraternities at Sewanee is a bright one in man ' respects. No feeling of bitter rivalry has marred it — an almost unique fact in which Sewanee men take just pride. Rather have the fraternities worked together in a spirit of co-operation and understanding and with mutual respect for the betterment of the University as for their respective chapters. It was in 1877 that the first chapter, that of Alpha Tau Omega, was established. Sigma Alpha Epsilon followed in 1881 and Kappa Sigma the next year. In 1883 came Phi Delta Theta, Kappa Alpha, and Delta Tau Delta. All of these fraternities have maintained their chapters on the mountain since their founding. This was not the case, however, with the Sigma Nu chapter, which, established in 1889, failed after several years and was not re-established until 1 921. In the early period before the nineties, rushing difficulties already arose. It seems that there was dispute about the admission of boys in the then Sewanee Grammar School. Such admission was decided against by the University authorities, but there still remained the question of pledging these embryo gownsmen before their entrance into the University. To settle this question Pan-Hellenic was organized and has functioned successfully all during its history. For some time each fraternity had three representatives on this council, but today the number is two. In 1898, a chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha was established, only to end its existence more than a dozen years later. Phi Gamma Delta ' s Sewanee chapter dates from 1919, while the present chapter of Pi Kappa Phi went national in 1929, after existing as a local under the name of Kappa Phi since the spring of 1927. One year before this latter date the Royal Bengal Club, the only local fraternity on the mountain today, had been established, making the present count nine nationals and one local, a good repre- sentation with which to carry on the tradition of successful fraternity life at Sewanee. he Qap and Qou ' n, 1932 The Pan Hellenic Comncil The Pan-Hellenic Council is composed of two representatives of each of the national fraternities at Sewanee. Acting under the authority of a char- ter granted it by the University, it is the body which governs all interfraternity relations at Se- wanee. From time to time it publishes booklets contain- ing the rules covering all of the phases of fraternity activities on the Mountain. It is significant of fra- ternity 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 president and secretary rotate between the various fraterni- ties, the representatives of each holding office for one year.

John Quitman Lovell and Wilham Storrow Lovell, Jr., of Virginia Alpha, established this chapter. In the fall of 1877 they initiated Cornelius K. Gregg, E. B. LaPice, G. C. Babcock, W. P. Duncan, Jr., J. W. Weber, W. N. Barton, T. M. DuBose, E. A. Quintard, W. D. Boykin, G. D. Palfrey, T. W. Gate, and McNeely DuBose. For the first house the chapter obtained the old Library Building. This was a gift of the University in 1880. In the next few years Tennessee Omega made rapid strides forward. They pledged many fine men, among them Dr. W. H. DuBose, who, it is rumored, was pledged by Maj. MacKellar after a buggy ride, and after they had divided a watermelon while on the trip. In 1886 the construction of a stone building was begun, and the resulting building is the present chapter house. Page 100 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 i3eeeeeeeeeeeeeeea CHAPTER OF Teeeessee Omega of Sigma Alpha Tennessee Omega of S. A. E. was the second fraternity to come to Sewanee. It was founded as a result of the labors of William B. Walker. He obtained a charter from the 1881 convention and brought it to Sewanee, and the first initia- tion was held August 20, 1881. The charter was issued to W. A. Guerry, Thomas C. Barret, Henry Jervey, A. K. Mitchel, and W. H. Elliot. In the faculty two men were chosen almost immediately. Gen. Kirby-Smith and Caskie Harrison. The men to be initiated were chosen for Walker by the faculty of the University. The chapter built its house under what are probably the most peculiar condi- tions that a fraternity house has been built. The chapter obtained the Government contract for delivering the mail. The various members of the chapter took charge of this in alphabetical order, and each would go to the station, over a half a mile away, get the mail, carry it up to the University by hand and foot power; then he would sort it out and it would be delivered to the residents by the carriers. This contract paid 110.00 a year. This money was the starting of a chapter house fund.

A. Jackson, Worthy Grand Procura- tor. He worked through Arthur Mason Chichester, a young Virginian. Chichester entered the University of the South in March, 1882; he immediately began to work to found the chapter. He enhsted the aid of W. H. Inglesby, and the charter of Omega chapter is made out to these two men. Their first meeting place was in a suite of rooms that were rented. At this time the chapter, which had grown to ten men, had to operate without University authorities knowing anything about their existence. By 1884 they had grown to twenty-one men, and in this year they announced their existence to the faculty. They were accepted. In 1883 a house was leased. This house was a little one-story building back of St. Luke ' s Hall. The chapter moved from here to a newly constructed three-room house in 1887. This house was the first house owned by a Kappa Sigma chapter. In 1904 the famous log cabin was built, the present Pi Kappa Phi house. In 1922 Omega built the present house. Page 106 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 CHAPTER OF U Tennessee Beta of Phi Delta Theta Tennessee Beta of Phi Delta Theta was organized in 1882, and a charter was issued March 21, 1883. The charter was issued to W. A. Gorve, W. G. A. Aylesworth, J. F. Bailey, A. L. Hartridge, J. P. H. Hodgson, J. M. Robinson, Bridgeford Smith. In 1884 Tennessee Beta built the first house for fraternity purposes that was built in the South. It was a frame house which stood on the present Phi Delta Theta lot. In 1907 construction was started on a large stone chapter house, which was only finished in the school year 1928-29. This house is the largest and most elaborate fraternity house on the cam- pus. The first frame house that was built is still in use as a residence house. Page 107 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 FORT.D. BUNTIN DANIEL M.

A large living room was added in 1904. The house was entirely remodeled in 1924. All through these years the house remained on the same lot. Page 112 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 CHAPTER OF I 895 Alpha Kappa of Kappa Alpha Alpha of Kappa Alpha was founded on December 1, 1883. J. S. Candler, K.C., was instrumental in the founding of the chapter. The charter was issued to A. E. Cornish, J. E. Thomas, O. T. Porcher, and J. B. Jones. The first chapter house was built on the present site, but burned in 1898. The house was rebuilt immediately, and in more elaborate architecture. But this house also went up in flames in 1914. This fire was more of a casualty, because of the loss of important documents and papers. In the same year work was begun on a new hou:e on the same site, and this house stands today. The chapter above is the 1895 chapter. Bishop Mikell was a member of this chapter.

Alpha Gamma Sigma local fraternity was organized in the spring of 1918 by Dandridge Spotswood, Ewing D. Sloan and Hubert H. S. Aimes, members of Phi Gamma Delta national fraternity from other schools. During the latter part of April of that same year Spotswood and Dr. Aimes, together with several of the University authorities, selected six men to form the nucleus of the new local. In 1919 Alpha Gamma Sigma petitioned Phi Gamma Delta and the petition was accepted. Their first fraternity house is their present house, which they obtained from the E. Q. B. Club. In the last two or three years they have gone to great expense in im- proving the house itself and the grounds around the house.

It functioned for three 3 ' ears, but after 1892 it ceased to exist, and for man ' years Sigma Nu did not reappear on the campus. In October, 1920, there was organized on the campus Tau Gamma Phi local fraternity. In 1 921 Sigma Nu decided to revive Beta Omicron, and the revival was accomplished by absorbing Tau Gamma Phi. The installation was held April 20, 1921. The men initiated were James R. Helms, R. M. Douglas, D. M. Driver, R. E. McBlain, J. A. Milem, H. F. Johnstone, W. C. Gunn, J. H. Marable, G. M. Manlev, C. R. Milem, J. F. Willeford, D. W. Berky, B. E. L. French. The first house was the old Guthrie house back of Hardee Field. Later the chapter moved to the log cabin. Plans were made for the building of a new house. Arrangements were made for securing a lot, and the construction of the new chapter house was completed in 1926.

Kappa Phi was organized October 10, 1927, by Byrom Dickens, Albert Sanderson, Clarence Faulk, Coy Putman, George Copeland, and Tom Byrne. Necessary recognition by the Uni- versity and by Pan-Hellenic was secured immediately. In the spring of 1929 Kappa Phi presented a petition to Pi Kappa Phi. At the summer convention the petition was accepted, and Kappa Phi had become a national fraternity after only two years of existence. In the fall of 1929 the chapter was installed. The first house was rented from the Phi Delta Theta fraternity; it was a large frame house, which has since burned. At the opening of the 1928 school year arrangements were made for securing the log cabin. This has been the abode of the chapter since that time. Pi Kappa Phi is the last national fraternity to come to the Mountain. It had been eight years since a national fraternity had granted a charter to a chapter in Sewanee.

Page 135 he Qap and Qoivn, 1932 When the Se jcanee Times changed its name in the fail of 1894 to become our present student paper, T ie Seivam-c Purple, a background of experience in pub.ications of such a nature had al- ready been established. The first of the papers forming this background was the University Rec- ord, a four-page monthly sheet which began its existence in June, 1872, and lasted until May, 1875, with a brief revival in r879. In 1875 Pi Omega Literary Society became a half partner in the venture of publishing this paper. The spirit of friendly rivalry caused the enemy society, Sigma Epsilon, to enter the field with The Sigma Epsilon in 1875. This was edited by Mr. Van Winder Shields. It is not known how long The Sigma Epsilon was published. In 1875 another pub ' ication appeared to take the place of University Record. The University Neivs was the name of this latest paper. It was a weekly, eight-page record of local social activities and current events. It sported the jaunty motto, Free, Frank, and Fearless. The Nezi-s existed until 1880, and was by far the best paper that had appeared. 1877 ushered in the Sewanee Dot, which was the most complete failure of all the early attempt-. Its life was a short one, and its contributions were so few that it is scarce remembered. In 1 881 the two literary societies, working jointly, began to publish the Cap and Go=u:n. This publication was the most worthy of all journalistic efforts. At first it contained only a few pages, but its success was so great that it flourished, and in 1888 became known as the Se canee, managed by Mr. Butt and Mr. Gadsden. In 1882 The Flea popped up, a single sheet. It lasted less than a year. The Se ' anee Life enjoyed a brief period of success in 1884, before it went the way of publications and died. By 1889 theScwanee had declined; it had attempted to gain filthy lucre instead of producing material of high literary excellence (a fault of all student publications), and after 1889 it ceased to be. In December of the same year the Board of Directors of the University of the South Magazine was organized, and in the following April its first number appeared. In 1893 the magazine became a quarterly and was not published after that year. Hudson Stuck was the first editor. Because of the development of athletics in the school there arose a pressing need for a news- paper, and in 1891 the Mountain, a four-page weekly, began its career, which was a short one, and in 1892, after its tenth issue, it was succeeded by the Seivanec Times, which, as we have said, became the Purple. The original Cap and Goicn has claim of ancestry nit only of our annual, but of that most distinguished of the publications which claim the mountain as their home, the Seivanee Revien . The Cap and Goivn struggled along as the Senfanec magazine only a year. But its literary merit, which had been noticeable from the first, declined, and with its disappearance no high c ' as;. literary magazine existed. The Revieiv came out in 1892 and has survived all storms and exists today, 1932. The present Cap and Goiun was first published in its status as an annual in 1891. However, its first issue was only an experiment. In 1892, with William Howard MacKellar as editor, the Cap and Gown began the long series of successful annual publications. During all the early development of journa ' ism on the mountain there had never been a humorous magazine, and in 1925 the Mountain Goat was first printed. Since that time it has very capably filled the need for a humorous magazine.

It was the great work of Dr. William Peterfield Trent, while Professor of English at Sewanee, to be the real founder of the Revieiv. In November, 1892, the first number appeared with the material backing of a group of the faculty and Professor Trent as editor. During the following year, Dr. Telfair Hodgson was the financial backer. For the same length of time The University of the South Magazine, another literary magazine effort of the mountain, and two years older than the Revieiv, continued to be published, but it failed to appear after 1893. From the first the Revieiv received the most favorable criticism in nearly all competent quarters. When Dr. Trent left Sewanee in 1900 to accept a pro- fessorship of English at Columbia, he left behind a magazine sound in develop- ment and broad in editorial policy. Much of the Review ' s early success was due to his wide reputation for scholarship. To succeed Dr. Trent, Mr. John Bell Henneman came to Sewanee and remained editor of the Revieiv until his death in 1908. Mr. Henneman is praised as a great educator and editor, and had as a co-worker until 1 905 Mr. Burr J. Ramage. During 1909, until Dr. John McLaren McBryde was secured for editor, the faculty of the University edited the Revieiv. Dr. McBryde resigned in 1 919 to fill the chair of English at Tulane and was succeeded by Dr. George Herbert Clarke. Dr. Clarke ' s work was marked by the including of poetry for the first time in the history of the Review and by the increase in the number of contributions fro m English writers. Dr. Clarke left Sewanee in 1925 to become Professor of English at Queen ' s University, Kingston, Canada. The present editor of the Revieiv and head of the English Department of the University is Dr. William Skinkle Knickerbocker. His aim is to make a wider appeal to the general cultivated reader interested in literature and to secure for the Revieiv the high position in the national field which it has long held in its sectional one. While maintaining the highest standards of the past, the Revieiv is less purely academic than a few years ago. Another significant phase is the emphasis on articles which help in the appreciation of Victorian literature, thus helping to re-establish the lines of communication with the genius in nine- teenth century thought which were cut during the last twenty-five years. An important contribution to the history of American magazines was the publication in 1930 of Dr. Alice Lucille Turner ' s A Study of the Content of the Seivanee Revieiv With Historical Introduction, a factual and descriptive analysis of the Review.

JiMMiE Cullum H. M. S. Pinafore is the major undertaking of the Glee Club for this season. It has been many years since a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta has been given on the Mountain, and this most recent attempt was very favorably received. Page 146 he Qap and Qown, ig 2 Officers Bernard E. Hirons Director Henry F. Holland President Tom Henderson Vice-President Charles Stone Secretary Joseph Hart Treasurer The manager will not be elected for this year. The duties usually assigned that office will be assumed by the executive committee. The Glee Club did not take the usual long trip this year. There were several reasons for this. First, because the usual guarantees in the many Southern cities were not forthcoming. The depression had everyone scared. Second, because the Glee Club does not exist for the sole purpose of making trips off the Mountain. In manir ways, however, this was the best year the Glee Club ever had. There were more contacts made on the Mountain through the new system of term concerts and co-operation with the new Women ' s Music Club. The students have learned to know the work of the club, too, as never before. Next year promises to be even better. Early in the fall term, the first entertainment of the year was given in the form of a recital for the freshmen. A number of the old repertoire songs were sung, with solos by Greenwood, baritone, and Kellerman, F., violin. Twenty-nine freshmen joined the practice groups as a result of this novel rush night, and sixteen stayed with the club through the entire season. In January, work was begun on H. M. S. Pinafore, the famous comic operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan. It was not known until this work was started that our director, Mr. Hirons, was an old hand at Gilbert and Sullivan and a trained dramatic coach. He coached the College of Charleston operettas for several years, and won his spurs in Canada before leaving college by winning the coveted national medal for oratory and dramatic reading. The production finally came off in May, with the finest cast that Sewanee has ever seen in any production. Here are some notes and some jolly fine people to remember: How about Bill Pembleton as Deadeye ? He was proclaimed by many to be the best actor on the stage that night. Then there was Bob Greenwood, with the role of the Admiral held down vocally and dramatically in superb style. Bill Lumpkin made the perfect Captain, with all the assumed airs of the part. Some say that Homer Starr made the best Quakeress ever seen anywhere. Then there were the ladies. Josephine was por- trayed with tremendous poise by Frank Dearing. Bill Edmonds, freshman though he be, was a good Cousin Hebe. And the funniest of all was Buttercup, played by that Yankee, John Johnston. We could go on, with honorable mention to Dick Cate for his part as Ralph, and to all the ladies, who created such a riot of fun. The Commencement repetition of Pinafore was a great success, and attended by the whole body of trustees and alumni. Next year the club will do its best to get a trip and take the operetta on tour. At best, we know that we have the best club south of the Mason-Dixon line, and that is no idle boast. Page 147 he Qap and Qoivn, 1932 Sigma Epsilom Officers Beckwith . . President Carlton .

For the many years that it has existed it has always played a large part in the life of the students. The name is taken from the initial letters of one of the founders, Bishop Stephen Elliot. For many years before the other honorary organizations came to the Moun- tain Sigma Epsilon and its rival, Pi Omega, played the part of the new-comers. During the year debates, orations, readings, aiid talks are sponsored and directed by the societies. At the end of the year they close «ith an oratorical and essay contest between the two; the boy winning is presented with a silver loving cup which is held by his fraternity until someone else wins it. Last year the essay cup was won by Mr. Massengale of Sigma Epsilon ; the oratorical cup by Mr. Tinker of Pi Omega. Page 148 he Qap and Qown, 1932 Officers . . President . . Gray .... .

Inception of Sev?anee In the summer of 1856 Bishop Polk thought the time was ripe to an- nounce his plans of a University. He had weighed carefully every consideration and every difficulty. He had studied the possible finan- cial needs, and believed he could get the necessary aid. In July of 1856 he sent a printed letter to the Southern Bishops. In this letter he pointed out the need for a Univer- sity in the South, and the plausi- bility of a scheme to found one. At the same time he wrote Bishop El- liot. In this letter he says, There is no reason why in hands (as those of the Church) and under such su- pervision we might not in five years have a Church University which would rival the establishment of Harvard or Yale. These letters were preparatory to his address to the General Convention of 1856. In this Convention the project of a University was launched with the approval of all the Bishops; the next call was to the dioceses. They responded by appointing delegates to attend a meeting on Lookout Mountain in 1857. Thus was a University founded. Q M®®h W r;o William Stireling Claiborne, because of his great service to the Mountain, has been known for years as Archdeacon of Sewanee. He is the founder of St. Andrew ' s School; founder of the DuBose Memorial Church Train- ing School; he re-established St. Mary ' s-on-the-Mountain; he established Emerald-Hodgson Hospital, and has been its friend throughout the years, working with untiring effort to secure funds for it in times of need. He has been a trustee since 1908. 7f(o j® ' c)) BENJAMIN FICKLIN FINNEY Benjamin Ficklin Finney, LL.D., has been a Regent of the University since 1913. He was urged to be acting Vice-Chancellor in the middle of the school year in 1922. Then he was asked to continue for another year. The University made such progress in that year and a half, and such enthusiastic support had been won, that he was continued as Vice-Chancellor. Under his administration the endowment and physical equipment have been doubled. fiom - y oC cStLfc JNAhQ -S G ' -v tvT a w i j Qy WALSH HALL Walsh Hall is named for Col. V. D.

OUR MUSICAL SECTION Mountain More Musical Minded CHOIR MEN THINK TONE (Don ' t Think Anything Else) Mr. Hirons, after three years, has his talented young musicians thinking tone just h ' ke he tells them to : in fact they don ' t think anything else. But that is all right, so long as they are thinking tone they are in communion with the Universal mind — and that is good. In the accompanying illustration the artist has endeavored to make the reader aware of what the choir and glee club are really doing — but the picture shows too much intelligence. The writer remem- bers one day when the club was prac- ticing and an awful noise was heard. The director said, Stop! Someone is not thinking tone. Up piped Hawkins and said, I can ' t, Barney. Right then everyone had to stop and think about some tones. It devel- oped afterward that Mrs. Faulkner ' s cat had been chasing a mouse, and everyone had been thinking tone after all. And Barney broke down and wept for joy, for his great heart had been wounded to think that one of his boys had been thinking about something, but no one had, and the honor of the Music Department remained immaculate. Directions For Thinking Tone — Take glass of water, empty glass of everything. Take two glasses of water, empty glasses of everything. Empty head of everything — and think tone. may roam, over land or sea or foam, there ' s no place like home. Mr. Jenkins has a delight- ful sense of humor for a great organism. Bill Wyckoff coughs loudly as second basses hit bottom. Barney: Bill, w ' y ' re you coughing? (You have no idea what a droll person Mr. Hirons is.) GREAT STUDENT OF ORGAN COMES TO SEWANEE Mr. R. Valentine Jenkins (Ruddy for short), who has studied organ under the best teachers of the world, is now in Sewanee to pursue his studies (that isn ' t all he is pursuing) under the guiding hand of Mr. Hirons, whom he proclaims best of all. Mr. Jenkins states for publication, Wherever I Joe Hart (gleefully) : What instrument do you play, Carlysle? Ames (the pride of Cannon Hall) : A shoe horn. Joe Hart (gleeclubfully) : Oh, I see, an instrument close to the soul. Sym-Phoney No. 292 in a Flat (Ver Flat) (Unsquelched) FRANK ZILCHELOWSKI 1732-1739 (too long) Rended on the Orthophon ' tc Victrola At home (there ' s no place like it) the Choir will be host to the people of the Mountain. The program, besides punch and crackers, will contain the rendition of F. Zilchelowski ' s Unsquelched Sym-phoney. To call this sym-phoney the Unsquelched Sym-phoney is to by no means express the truth ; stronger terms should be used. This tune is a mighty one. When it was finished the carpenter had to re-shingle the roof. It is three hours long. It leaves nothing unsaid. When it finishes you don ' t want to hear anything else said. F. Zilchelowski never heard this sym-phoney, but it doesn ' t make any difference, he was deaf anyway. FIRST CONTORTION Melody rings out from the first note. A mighty theme is poured forth by the piccolos, to be taken up by the fifes and brought to its ultimate conclusion by the swinettes (the swinette h a recently introduced instrument which is played with two toothpicks). But, no! The depths of the soul are not plumbed by the swinettes alone, for the bass horn begins to tremolo very tremulously and the great main theme, the antithe- sis of antipathy toward the Universal Mind, begins to twine its sinuous spell over the listeners in, but un- fortunately there will be no static to drown out the mighty throbbing pulsations of the great heart of F. Zilchelowski, as with an olive-crowned brush he be- daubs the musical canvas of the minds and souls of the listeners (hot cha!). SECOND SPASM There is not so much melody in this one — less than in the first one — but there is plenty of hot stuff. In language of inexpressible beauty it communicates from composer to hearer a degree of spiritual exaltation which only a good stein of beer can dispel. One of the best scenes in the thing is the scene in which the bas- soon player beats the champion fiddler over the head because he thought he was stringing him along. Then suddenly the mood of the sym-phoney is changed — Fate knocks at the door. Knock. ' Knock. ' Like the lady salesman selling YU-DRINK- ' EM tea balls. Mighty footsteps are heard — the bass drummer, who wears No. 19 shoes, steps forward to tell the glockenspiel player to ring dem bel ' s. Toward the final strainings we hear a mighty sighing— it is the audience. Then, with a crash, the mighty musical fest ends as the trombone player rams his slide through the snare drum. Then follows what the audience would have liked to have heard all the time— SILENCE. THE BIRTH OF AN OPUS OR TEN MILES FROM TOWN (Being An Intimate Treatise By That Music-Minded Maniac B Natural) An Opus is a funny bird. Unlike the garden variety of birds that dig holes in the ground to keep their ears from becoming too sensitive to music, an Opus builds his favorite nest in the Music Studio. He beats time a 1 day long with his claws — if Opuses have claws — to the delightful strains of music that emanates from the Music Studio. Particularly is he entranced with the piccolo, that mighty instrument of international fame. The same piccolo that was played before the Sultan of Turkey, an event of great disaster to the piano player. But pianos, piccolos are far-off thing:., having nothing to do with the birth of the Opus. He is a thing apart, concerned only with organs. The Opus is a student of music. Every afternoon he would watch with bated breath the male coarse of trained hyppos go through the first chorus of Pinafore. Ev- ery night he would fly to the chapel to practice hymns for the next day ' s chapel service. If he did not do this, he would not be an Opu5. With such a lucid background it will be simple to tell of the birth of an Opus. A few years back there appeared in the newspaper this headline: Music- Minded Moron Makes Masterpiece. That masterpiece was an Opus. The Opus was very much alive. He ate, slept, and listened to music. In fact he listened to so much music that he forgot just what he was listen- ing to, and would mention the fourth score, or just any score, for that matter, of St. Louis Blues as perfectly delightful, when he really meant the Moonlight Sonata. As has been stated, the Opus is a funny bird. One day this Opus went to the library. He saw to his right as he entered just lots and lots of books marked Opera. Flying up to the librarian ' s desk (all Opuses fly), he sweetly said, ' ' What a tine music library you have here. Flying over to the shelves on which these books are kept, he opened one and pro- ceeded to read the Litany. My, my, he whispered, this is a new opera on me. But we are wandering far afield from the subject in hand. The birth of the Opus was a blessed event. Three thousand musicians were present. Each one knew the dominant seventh, and could play chopsticks. They had to, or they wouldn ' t have been musicians. They all stood around while the Opus was being brought to light. They tapped impatient batons and drew pictures of the dominant seventh. Finally he made his appearance. Immediately he called for an organ and began to play He is An Englishman with one hand and Yankee Doodle ' ' with the other, and peddled with his feet that rousing tune, ' ' Love Lifted Me. The Opus is able to do trick peddling because he has exceptionally long toes. The story of the Opus has been told. There must be some account of his influence on the Mountain. He has made Sewanee more music-minded than the football team has. He has created a spirit of song that is fast turning the undergraduates into songbirds. From here it is an easy step to become an Opus. The Opus will only die through the passage of time or some cataclys- mic event. For he is an Eng — excuse me, I am off the track again. I meant to say that he is the product of a music-minded maniac, or moron. The future of the Opus is very bright, but we have hopes for that cata- clysmic event. It is interesting to know just what the Opus does In the summer. He hasn ' t any made choruses to listen to, and he hasn ' t a trouble in the world with squeaky piccolos and heavy drum?. He is carefree to play his organ and to whistle strange tunes taken from the Operas in the library. The Opus is more fortunate than students.

Gen. M. D. (Moby Duck) Hollis led the forces of the back row, but was too fat and could not hide under the desk. Before the chalk dust had cleared up, Tauber, WyckofI, and Taylor were captured and hauled up on the first row as hos- tages. Up on the front row they were able to play tit-tat-to (e) unnoticed, because from force of habit Mr. MacDonald kept his eyes on the back row. The chart is self-explanatory. The gentleman with the melancholy countenance is Schopie Schopenhauer, famous German hamburg eater. The sad expression is caused by 35 hamburgers and 58 pretzels. Schopie was on even terms with the Magnolia Masticator, John (Mighty Hunter) Adair. Do not fail to notice the lady Jabberwock and the little one. Evidently this Jabberwock had met another Jabberwock on Mars, and this proves that one Jabberwock and one Jabberwock does make three Jabberwox.

A. — A Model Dairy is a necessary part of every grade A college. Q. — Is there a Model Dairy at Sewanee ? A.— Yes. Q. — Is Sewanee a grade A college? A.— Yes. Q. — Vas Sewanee a grade A college before she had a Model Dairy? A.— No. Q.- — Then the Model Dairy has done more for Sewanee than anything else, even the Revieivf A. — The Model Dairy has had more done for it than anything else in Sewanee. Q. — But what about the Review? A. — The Review is better; it pays almost half of its expenses, and does Sewanee no harm other- wise — not enough people read it for it to do auy harm. Q. — What is the greatest criticism of the Model Dairy? A. — The cows say that the bath salts are of a very inferior grade. Q. — But I understand that the showers them- selves are very good. A. — Yes, they all have automatic hot water regulators, so the cows cannot get scalded to death. Q. — What would happen if the cows all scalded to death? A. — Sewanee would no longer be a grade A college. Q.— Would that not be very bad? A. — Who wants to turn Sewanee into a damned educational school, anyway?

A Few Reactions of Quisenberry (Water-Tkin) and Hollis (Stuffy-Fat) Moby Duck Hollis (the chins expert) : Quiz, boy, the other day a little girl had the face to say that I was ugly. Quizard (the Tomato-Juice Wizard) : Yeah? And you had the face to prove it. Ducky: Shut up, you water-thin! Say, have you heard of the Mountain Goat lately? Quiz: No, I don ' t believe so. I haven ' t heard of it for weeks. Ducky: Well, I ' ll tell you what ' s happened to it. An ivory soap epidemic hit the Mountain. Quiz: Ga-ah-lee! Think you ' re smart, don ' t you, boy? Ducky: Say, boy, that ' s a pretty loud looking suit you have on there. You millionaires sho ' do dress. How many suits do you have? Quiz: Aw, shut up! Say, Duck, do you know what I dreamed the other night? I dreamed that 5 ' ou were a violinist — a fiddler, you know — and you have five fiddles, and I came over to see you and you were playing all five at once, with one under each chin. Ducky: Lissen at that, wouldn ' t you! Lissen at that! If you keep on talking you will get my dander up. Quiz: I sho ' wouldn ' t get your dander-uflF for anything. ( Hollis faints, and a ten-ton truck is called to haul him awav.) One of Our Questionnaires Q. — What is the difference between a church and a chapel ? A. — A chapel has an organ, and a church has an organ and a band. Q. — Which has Sewanee? A. — A church. Q. — How long has Sewanee had a church? A. — Only this year. Q. — So Sewanee has a church ; I suppose, then, she has a band. A.— Yes. (Conlinut ' d on Page l ' 7) Inkum Egyptianella, the Bagdad Babee Inkum Egyptianella is a development of a social error, and she really knows how to count the pennies. She is a famous dancer ; one of her most famous dances is the Dance of the Seven Fails ; a still more famous one is the Dance of the Thirty-two Fails. Her own dancing school is called Phi Gammer Mew, and she really puts her pupils through some hot paces. In the illus- tration above you see Inkum Egyptianella doing a bit of interpretative dancing. This dance is one in which the price curve jumps up as Egyptian- ella continues her mad swaying. The notes is- suing from the horn are the artist ' s conception of the shekels (Arabian for redeemable currency) that Egyptianella will probably wring out of the pockets of the spectators. They constitute her marginal-demand price (if it ' s this hot mama from far Stamboul the demand is very great in- deed). The two Tar-Babies are playing Sheik That Thing. She is teaching by her agile devil- utions the truth of the proverb of the old sheik who said, Them as has, gits. She believes it all right to take oiif your skin and dance around in your bones. Look out, there! You will raise a stye if you don ' t take your eye oE. the little lady ' s unearned increment! It was a dark and gloomy night. The house was in utter darkness. Suddenly, from out of the shadows there appeared a man. Against the white house he appeared like an evil spirit. Softly he walked to a window, by quiet manipulation he raised the sceen. He entered and tiptoed gently down a short hall. At the end he found a door. Pausing a minute he was able to hear from with- in regular breathing. With an inward smile at his good fortune he slowly opened the door and stealthily crept to the bed, where lay a young woman sleeping the sleep of the just. He glanced around the room, and made sure that he and the girl were the only occupants. Then, turning to the girl asleep, he awakened her roughly. As she gazed up at him wild eyed, he leaned forward so that his hot breath touched her cheek, and in a guttural growl said, Do you inhale? Mr. Adair, the Art Editor, Caught On the Job (Strange!) The picture is an intimate portrait of our champ ink- thrower, Mr. Adair (pro- nounced A ' -dair). This lit- tle sketch was done by the Editor, who caught Mr. Adair in a characteristic pose, and making a characteristic drawing (look at the sketch Mr. Adair is just complet- ing, and you will see why the Great Divide ). Mr. Adair likes to draw with a pencil, but does not prefer drawing with such a dry instrument ; he prefers ink ; when you get tired of drawing, just tilt up the bottle and that will rem- edy the situation. Mr. Adair, because of his numerous ac- tivities, has been called the Big Operator. That might be the reason why he is called Operator, but not why he is called Big. Among his many campus affiliations Mr. Adair is most proud of E. I. R., which stands for Elephant-in- Rompers. Air. Hollis, Mr. Dobbins, and Mr. Adair are charter members, and will probably offer bids to Mr. Clarke and Mr. Glass next year.

PROTOPLASM Hymen ' s torch lies extinguished, his altar over- turned, marriage is a godless rite. Two soul- less organisms experience an impulsive affinity. Civil Officer (not priest) : Wilt thou have this anthropoid to be thy co-ordinate; wilt thou love her with thy nerve centers, wilt thou cherish her with they whole cellular tissue, until some final molecular disturbance s hall resolve its ele- ments into its primitive atoms? Prof. Hoxey: Biological deviation seeks to be unified. Civil OfT. : Wilt thou have this definite de- velopment of particles to be thy correlative ; wilt thou respect his wishes with the gray granules of thy cerebrum; wilt thou honor him with the whole potentiality of thy individual entity ; wilt thou prefer him to all other combinations of atoms until the present differentiation of homo- geneity is, by some perturbation of structural cells, transformed into its original heterogeneity?

Connuhiahties When Adam slept, God from him took A bone, and, as an omen He made it like a seraph look And thus created woman. He took this bone not from his pate, To show her power more ample; Nor from his feet, to designate That he on her might trample. But ' neath his arm, to clearly show He always should protect her; And near his heart to let him know How much he should respect her. He took the bone, crooked enough — Most crooked of the human — To show him how much crooked stuff He ' d always find in woman. One of Our Questionnaires (Conlinued from Page ly .) Q. — Which has been the most satisfactory, the band or the organ ? A. — The students like the band, and the old ladies like the organ. Q. — Why do the students like the band? A. — It plays so loud that it drowns out the choir. And the students think the band is by far the lesser of the two evils. And then it is funny to watch and hear Reynolds play the flute. Q. — Why do the old ladies like the organ ? A. — The organ is softer and they can go to sleep better. Q. — Vhich instruments in the band are worse ? A. — The flute, the two cornets, and two fiddles — I say fiddle instead of violin advisedly. Q. — I see. Vell, what instruments are in the band ? A. — A flute, two cornets, and two fiddles. Q. — Vho is most griped at the band, Tony or the old ladies? A. — Tonv is. He has to sit closer to it.
