SEWANEE IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT ' ALMA MATER I HE READER MAY SEE HERE OUR DORMITORIES, REAL RESIDENCES OF KNOWLEDGE, IN WHICH WE HAVE SPENT THE GREATER PART OF OUR BRIEF STAY AT THE UNIVERSITY, AND MAY MEET THOSE WHO ARE DIRECTING ITS PROGRESS, MINISTER- ING TO THE NEEDS OF US ALL. H N UNIVERSITY VLC L a wa u uu ■ Tuckway Inn is a modern edition of the old halls of Sewanee ' s age of wood. It is the only dormitory in which meals are served to the students. Consequently, Tuckaway is known on the campus for the sybaritic existence led by some of its inmates. Here stay many of the visitors who come to the mountain. For those who would live among pleasant surroundings, its paneled lobby and dining room have a great attraction. 9 %j-g MISS JOHNNY TUCKER of Tuckaway Inn MRS. HORACE TYLER of Cannon Hall R M I O R I O N H anviQ-vL ■ Cannon Hall is one of our newest dormitories. Besides providing a home for num- bers of students, visiting ath- letic teams are usually ac- corded the privilege of stay- ing here. ■ Recently its archi- tectural beauties and practical arrange- ment caused it to be chosen as an out- standing example of American college residence halls. U N I M U n 14 014 ■ Johnson Hall is another of the newer dormi- tories. It faces Manigault Park, through which it looks up to Hoffman Hall and St. Lukes. The activity of its student life has been made manifest this year by an especially rapid turnover of proctors. DORM N H MRS. LOMAX ANDERSON of Johnson Hall MRS. H. H. FAULKNER of The Sewanee Inn ■ The solid Norman architecture of the Inn makes it in many ways the most imposing of our dormitories. Besides being the largest and most imposing, it is, too, one of the most home like. The great log fire place of the comfort- able lobby and the piano of the music studio which is located here, are properties which are believed by the Inn ' s inhabitants to endow them with a distinction coveted by the other students. This building shelters the various conferences and conventions which gather to the Mountain during the Summer months. It is probable that it will house the students attending the Summer sessions of the College to be inaugurated this year. e w aitee UlA -And Peace is Wisdom ' s Guest. U N I R CAMP U S ■ Although a successor to Old Hoffman, which once lent its dignity to Manigault Park, the present Hoffman Hall is the oldest of the undergraduate dormitories. The passage of the years has endowed it with a wealth of tradition which is yet to be equalled by the newer buildings. The unity of spirit which animates its inhabitants is at the same time their joy, the wonder of other students, and the dismay of the Head Proctor. They have, however, adopted as their own the time-hon- ored motto of New College, Oxford, Man- ners Makyth Man, and in their better mo- ments live strictly up to its implications. MRS. PERCY CUNNINGHAM of Hoffman Hall wiait Am — Thete Stotms of Life Butst not, not cares intrude. O R M O R I N H t. J—ltk e ■ St. Lukes Hall is the especial domain of the Theological School. It contains a library, four lecture rooms, a comfort- able Common Room and eighteen study suites, affording living accommodations for thirty-six students. The hall, ar- chitecturally attractive, faces the pleas- ing grounds of Manigault Park. U N I M U MRS. MARY EGGLESTON of Magnolia Hall ■ Magnolia Hall, the last of the old frame buildings which typified the Sewanee of a past generation, main- tains an unbroken popularity with the student body. In other days Magnolia was both a dormitory and a dining hall, always under the ministering hand of Mrs. E. Now that the stone dormitories have been com- pleted, it fulfills its purpose as the dining commons of the University. The meals, served by student waiters, and prepared under the supervision of Mrs. E, are famous wherever the name of Sewanee is known. a a no it a £7i a L I ' — For Simple Tastes and Gentle Manners- T H E A PIVOT c hLL atnt itapel f O F UNIVERSITY LIFE THE CHANCELLOR O F T H E UNIVERSITY RT.

The Proctors are chosen from the outstanding members of the Junior and Senior Classes by the Vice-Chancellor upon recommendations given him by the retiring proctors and the matrons. This system has worked exceptionally well in maintaining discipline among the students. Each proctor is given jurisdiction over one dor- mitory, although his duties are extended to the University campus at all times. 4 Page 24 ► HONOR COUNCIL M M R Jack Fraxklix, Chairman Junior Class Lee Belford, Secretary Senior Class Willis Rosexthal Senior Class David Rose Junior Class Bert Dedmax Sophomore Class Harvey McClellax Freshman Class Frank Walters Theological Department The Honor Council is composed of two Seniors, two Juniors, one Sophomore, one Freshman, and one representative from the Theological Department. Its purpose is to act upon any infringement of the Honor Code. The Sewanee Code of Honor applies not only in the classroom and during examinations, but in the fraternities and in every activity to be found on th; Mountain as well as in the relations of the students to one another. Although the Council is forced to function but little, its decisions are accepted as final by the University authorities.

A vestryman must be elected from the class he represents and must be a baptized member of some Christian communion. i Page 26 T HE READER IS INTRODUCED TO THE MEMBERS OF OUR VARIOUS CLASSES AND IS PERMITTED TO VIEW THE CLASSROOMS IN WHICH KNOWL- EDGE IS DISPENSED AND IMBIBED SO FREELY.     CHAPTER TWO THE CLASSES 1 UaU cMall —Of polite learning and liberal education . ' ' ■ The architecture of Walsh Hall is Tudor Gothic — a type of construction for centuries the favorite of collegiate buildings. To its old woodwork, its quaint arrangement, its aging stone, Sewanee owes much of the charm which we are proud to have heard called, by visitors, Oxonian. Walsh houses the various administra- tive offices — the vice-chancellors — the treasurer ' s — the office of the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Here are found many of the class rooms of the art department, — the professors ' offices and the students ' postoffice. 4 Page 28 ► s c l e a c e Jlall r ' —Nothing so broadening as systematic investigation ■ Science Hall is a gift of the Carnegie Foundation. Here are the laboratories of the departments of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Forestry. Before the Science Building with Walsh and the Chapel on either side, is the University Quadrangle.

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 ten laymen, all elected by the trustees although three of the laymen are nominated by the Associated Alumni. Though its functions are primarily financial, it may deal with any phase of the university interests. i Page 74 ► I HE READER IS INTRODUCED TO SOME OF THOSE FACTORS OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM WHICH MAKE OUR INSTITUTION WHAT IT IS; OUR FRATERNITIES, OUR SCHOLARS, OUR LEADERS, OUR ACTORS, AND OUR WRITERS.    CHAPTER THR ORGANIZATIO S The members of the various fraternities at Seivanee do not live in their chapter house;. As pleasant places of relaxation, however, they are in constant use. In all of them are fine large fireplaces, around which the brothers gather to ex- change stories about the girls back home. Each has its pool-table and its ping-pong table to speed the passage of the hours not spent in studying.

Its membership consists of two representatives from each fraternity who serve for one year. The officers rotate among the fraternities, the rep- resentatives of which become President and Secretary-Treas- urer at their allotted times. The Council issued a new set of nulling rules which went into effect during the 1934 rushing season. Every freshman has to be entertained by each fraternity at least once during the first week of rustling. It is interest- ing to note that there were no cases of violation of Pan- Hellenic rules reported during tlie past year. i Page 77 ► ALPHA T U O First Ro-tv: Heathman Young Eustis, O.

Stiles Lines Richard Wilkens Fred Yerkes Arthur Chitty Ben Mecinniss Lee Belford Henry Lumpkin Tack Franklin Maurel Richard Herbert Smith Honor and distinction are due Sopherim, the Mother Chapter of Sigma Upsilon Fraternity. Sigma Upsilon has grown from a small beginning in 1905 to one of the best known and largest national literary fraternities. Soon after the founding of Sopherim, several other groups of men organ- ized themselves in like manner at Vanderbilt, the University of Georgia, and Randolph-Macon College for Men. In 1906 the merging of Sopherim, the Calumet Club, the Senior Round Table and Osiris took place. These united clubs took the name of Sigma Upsilon. The purpose of Sigma Upsilon was declared to be twofold: To reward with membership those college men who displayed exceptional literary ability and to provide for the active members such programs as would encourage still greater literary appreciation and creative effort. The impetus with which the fraternity was founded was not shortly spent, but has thrived with the passing years until there are now forty-five active chapters. Dr. W. S. Knickerbocker, professor of English, is the National President. The official publication of the fraternity is the Scarab, which is issued quarterly and is seldom published without some contribution from Sopherim chapter. Sopherim Chapter is an organization of Gownsmen only. It is honorary and exclusive in that only men of recognized talent and promise are eligible for membership. Meetings are held twice a month, and the prime endeavor is to uphold the spirit and traditions of its founders both with the pen and at the convivial board. Page 100 ► NEOGRAPH A LITERARY SOCIETY FOR UNDERGOWNSMEN M M B Tucker MacKenzie President Bex Phillips Secretary-Treasurer Sam Taft Theodore Ravenel George Graham Gus Graydon Wyatt Brown Wylie Mitchell Harvey McClellan Berxer Laxgforo Charles Brown Bert Ephgrave Alexandre Juhan Bill Wilkersox Neograph, founded at Sewanee in 1903, is an honorary literary society for undergownsmen. It flourished until 19-211, when, due to the uneasiness of the times and the many elements disturbing campus life, it was allowed to lapse. It remained dormant for two years. In 1923, the alumni of Neograph, then members of Sopherim, revived the organization and it has since been quite active on the mountain. In former years meetings were held fortnightly. This year, the zeal and the enthusiasm of the present group have made possible their de- cision to meet regularly on Wednesday nights. This they do, gather- ing from week to week in the various fraternity houses. This year has seen most of the members turned to the writing of short stories and essays, but occasionally the more daring individuals will offer bits of drama and poetry. Works of research and redaction are net unknown, but generally imagination leads them on. Improvement of style is one of the most evidently beneficial results of the fine order of constructive criticism met with there. Discussions are often so interesting as to prolong the session for hours. That the meetings are really enjoyable is well testified by the frequent attendance of alumni, whose two years in the society are past. Page 101 SIGMA EPSILON o R Orville Eustis .

Sigma Epsilon has benefited especially from the renascence and its members have cooperated in fine style to dispel the indifference which has prevailed in recent years. The reg- ular Thursday night sessions are keenly anticipated. The speakers have entered upon their duties seriously and Mr. Lumpkin, as pro- gram director, has helped maintain their standard. A great deal of talent which might otherwise have remained hidden has been brought to light. This, indeed, is its raison d ' etre, plus that of creating in- terest in public speaking as an extra-curricular activity. Sigma Epsi- lon, the oldest of Sewanee ' s literary groups, was established in 1869. Its name is derived from the initials of the name of Bishop Stephen Elliott, one of the Founders. Under its banner many of Sewanee ' s most prominent alumni in their undergraduate days contended in de- bates and oratorical contests with the members of Pi Omega.

Under the painstaking guid- ance of Mr. Horlock, the program director, talks and papers on wide- ly diverse themes have been presented. Like its rival, Sigma Epsilon, the purpose of the society is to dsvelop interest in debating and other forms of public speaking. Subjects for logical debate and fiery ora- tory have ranged from the literary excellence of the works of Ger- trude Stein to the more pertinent subject of the advisability of com- pulsory chapel. Ever heeding their motto, Apis matinae more modoque , the members seize every intellectual opportunity and in- vestigate it thoroughly. Rivalry between Pi Omega and Sigma Epsilon is not as bitter as it once was. Instead, each year sees a num- ber of friendly and agreeable contests. Pi Om ga was organized in 1872. The name was derived from the initial letters of the names of two Founders, Bishops Polk and Otey. i Page 103 ► THE GERMAN CLUB Ragland Dobbins President Jimmy Blair First lice-President Tucker Mackenzie .... Second lice-President Ruddy Cravens Third Tice-President Wyatt Brown Secretary Sam King .... ... ... . . Treasurer H. A. Griswold Faculty Adviser The past year has seen the complete reorganization of Sewanee ' s German Clubs. Membership is no longer divided as formerly, into two distinct organizations — the Junior and Senior Germans. Instead, we have the Sewanee German Club. Membership is restricted to students enrolled in the Univer- sity, who pay regular dues. They are thus entitled to vote on questions of policy brought up at various times. Members are admitted to the dances at a cost less than the cost to non-members. Any dance given on the Mountain, for which admission is charged, must be approved by and be under the juris- diction of this club. This year, the first function was a dance given en the evening of November the third, after the T. P. I. -Sewanee football game. Red Kibler played for the set of Thanksgiving dances which were rein.-tituted this year with overwhelming success. Mr. Wyatt Brown was in charge of the deccration of the gym. Thanksgiving was the season, and so Thanksgiv- ing provided the decorative motif. Cutouts of pilgrims and turkeys adorned ihe walls and autumn leaves and pine needles lent the necessary rustic atmos- phere. On the fifth and sixth of February, the Midwinter dances were given to the delightful music of Kay Kvser. Every one feels that these were big moments in the history of S.nvanee ' s Germans. The orchestra ' s glee club arrangement and orchestral features were especially enjoyed. Ish Kibbible, we believe, was the popular favorite. The decorative theme on this occasion was a winter carnival: on the walls were dog-sleds and snow scenes. We hear with amazement that 30,000 snowfiakes were hung from th; ceiling. The engagement of orchestras for Easter and Commencement is the pressing problem as the Cap and Gown goes to press. It will be remembered that Mai Hallett played in the June of 1934. Mr. Dobbins and his co- workers must be cemmended for their firm support and steady encouragement of the new principles and Mr. Brown for his artistic efforts to make the dances as pleating to the eye as well as the ear. • Page 104 ► PI GAMMA MU National Social Science Honor Society Founded at Southwestern College, Kansas, in 1924 TENNESSEE BETA CHAPTER Established in t93o In Facultate Dr. Finney Dr. Ware Dr. McDonald Dr. Prescott Mr. Kayden Mr. Long Mr. Atkins Rev.

It was founded in 1924 and by 1935 had over one hundred chapters. It aspires to occupy in the field of social science the same place held by Phi Beta Kappa in literary studies. Its purpose is the inculcation of the ideals of scholarship, scien- tific attitude, and scientific method in the study of all social problems. It aims to imbue its members with social idealism and a scientific at- titude toward it. Secret features and national ritual are not included. Its Greek letters stand for the words, Students of Social Science , and its mot- to is, Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free . The chapter at Sewanee was installed in 1930 through the ef- forts of Professor Kayden, who remains its chief advisor. Page 105 y DRAMATICS Increased interest in the drama this year at Sewanee has resulted in the presen- tation of two productions, The Merchant of Venice and The Rivals. ■ ■ ■ ■ For the past several years the students of the Theological School have given Shakespearean drama, and the appearance this year enjoyed an unusually warm reception, for the costuming, lighting, scenery, and characterizations. In the undergraduate school a new group, the Union Players, presented their first vehicle in the early part of May. The purpose o f the newly organized undergraduate dramatic club is to present classical drama. All the roles in Sheridan ' s comedy were taken by boys. Under the direction of Mr. Woolf, a junior in the Seminary, the play was ably pre- sented, well acted, and enthusiastically received. Past triumphs of the Shakespeare Players were outstripped in the interpretation this year of The Merchant of Venice, under the direction of Mr. Walters. An appearance of the play in Clarksville, Tenn., sponsored by the Little Tehatre, was well received. CAST OF THE MERCHANT OF VENICE Duke of Venice James Brettmann Shylock Frank Walters Antonio R.

It was the first college in the South to have a Department of Public Speaking, and Sewanee ' s debaters in the past have set a standard of excellence. Debating, like every other suc- cessful activity, must be organized, and the Debate Council was formed for this purpose. It is composed of all who have taken part in previous years. During the past season Edward H. Har- rison has been President, and Howard J. Sears, Secretary. Other members of the council were: Tucker Mackenzie, Cecil Alligood, Ferdinand Powell, Johnny Johnston, Henry Lumpkin, and Jack Franklin. Major William H. MacKellar served as Faculty Ad- visor. The first year debaters were: John Bass, Emmet Gribbin, Marshall Barnes, Bert Dedman, Stewart Hull, Frank Gillespie, William Johnston, Voris King, and Owen Scott. The 1935 sea- son began on February 27 and ended on April 18. During this time seventeen debates were scheduled with thirteen colleges. Most of these were non-decision contests. In the others the honors were about evenly divided. The question most frequently discussed was, Resolved: That the nations should agree to prevent international shipments of arms and munitions. Sewanee on different occa- sions argued the question both for the affirmative and for the nega- tive side. Two debates were held with Emory University on Re- solved: That the TV A and its coordinate agencies are to the best interests of the United States. In many colleges it is customary to eliminate all but the best men from the debating squad. Sewanee, true to its traditions of general participation in academic activities, holds to other principles. Any student displaying a serious interest and willing to work is given an opportunity to speak. The more experienced debate against the larger schools and make extensive trips through the Southern States. i Page 107 ► Brettman Clark, H. E. Cole Cravens, D. G.

As its standards are high and its initiation rigorous, membership represents no small honor. The members of this group are the Sewanee gentlemen generally known to other schools. These men represent us in athletic con- tests at other institutions of learning. A wearer of the S is re- garded as a fine type of athletic opponent and as a fine type of man.

I 12 ► THE Cap and Gown of 1935 represents long hours of hard toil by a student staff which has consistently put forth its very best efforts to make this annual a worthy one in the history of the University. This goal may not have been reached, but toward it they have conscientiously labored. An attempt has been made to present a clear picture of student life and organizations as they exist. So, when turning these pages to see what has been done, what left undone, remember that editors are only mortals after all. The editor feels himself indebted to Mr. Morton for h:s painstaking redaction of this material and for his constructive criti- cism. The help of Mr. Benson of the Benson Printing Company was invaluable in arranging the make-up of the annual, that you might not find your name on one page and your face on another. Mr. Judd of Chattanooga did the photography — by popular acclaim, the best in recent years. Mr. Dargan and Miss Poteat of the Wrigley Engraving Company have lent a personal touch by their several apt suggestions. The Editor and Business Manager are indebted to the entire student body for its cooperation. GOWN STAFF i Page 113 ► Stiles B. Lines Editor The editor of this year ' s Purple has in a sense grown up to the position. During his three previous years, in- creasing effort has been expended toward raising Sewanee ' s journalis- tic standards. The editcrship was sought and won by him not as an- other honor or activity but as an op- portunity to establish a finer tradi- tion in our student publications.

During the past year the Purple has done much to avoid this insidious triad. With a becoming contempt for moss-grown tradition, great care has been taken to have each issue ready for circulation at five o ' clock on the Wednesday of publication. In this endeavor the editor has had the full coopera- tion of the staff of the University Press, headed by Mr. Thompson, and the result has been an all-time record for prompt release. Some will not agree that exaggeration has been avoided, but an attempt has been made at least to insure a measure of accuracy and a semblance of reticence. In the matter of overcoming stagnation, the Purple has made noticeable progress. Issues of current interests on the campus have been fully presented in its columns. Sports Editor Beatty brought on a full discussion of the advisability of Sewanee ' s with- drawing from the Southeastern Conference. The columns of the paper contained a large percentage of up-to-date news. Editorials were more widely read and had a greater reader interest than for some years past. A campus furore was caused on several oc- casions by timely comment in the editorial columns. At the formation of the Tennessee College Press Association, at Cookeville, Stiles Lines was elected vice-president of the Association and The Sewanee Purple was adjudged the best college paper in the state. Some of the adjectives used by the judges to de- scribe it were: sophisticated, well-balanced, good content, news value, excellent typog- raphy.

He has prepared an edition of Culture and Anarchy and an anthology of the writings of many men of Science and has written Creative Oxford. He is engaged at present with a Life of Tom Paine. The Sewanee Review is the oldest literary Quar:erly in America. Founded in 1892, for forty-three years it has pro- jected and consolidated the ideal of Sewanee in American let- ters. Mr. Hubbell in his Culture in the South has said The Sewanee Review has published some of the best criticism of the last decade. Its place in the creative life of America is widely acknowledged. It has the solid support of the University and in spite of the depression, circulation increases. The Review numbers many distinguished authors among its contributors — Paul Elmer More, Ludwig Lewisohn, Grant Showerman, and many others. Their articles deal with many aspects of the lit- erary world. Sometimes controversial in nature, they are as often works of careful research, deeply interesting to the scholar. t Page I I 4 ► I HE READER IS GIVEN AN OPPOR- TUNITY TO SEE OUR GAMES AND SPORTS AND TO MEET THOSE WHO HAVE PROVED THEMSELVES BEST IN ATHLETIC ACHIEVEMENT.   CHAPTER FOUR ATHLETICS t M £  j. ■ V Harry E.

He is re- sponsible for teaching his team the plays of the varsity ' s opponents and using them on the varsity, through which the varsity re- ceives its real practice. He is also graduate manager of athletics. Gaston S. Bruton Intramural Athletic Director Dr. Bruton directs all intramural athletic activities. The enormity of his wcrk is easily seen when one realizes that 86.3% of th; whole student body takes part in some form of intramural athletics. Many recruits for the intercollegiate teams are obtained from the intramural teams. Allen Lincoln Varsity Basketball Coach Coach Lincoln serves as Basketball Coach, Track Coach, and also as Assistant Football Coach. As Basketball Coach, he had to work with green material, only one Senior being out for basketball. He was handicapped by illness, too, but the team did well. His spe- cialty is track. TEAM MANAGERS Orville B. Eustis Track I ' m ik R. Phillips Football Tom t). Miixu n Basketball E SEWANEE TIGERS The fighting band of Tigers of Sewanee had a disappointing season from the standpoint of vic- tories, for only two games were won and seven lost, but the thing that made the season a suc- cess was the renewed spirit with which th;y went out to battle. Head Coach Hek Clark, ably as- sisted by Coach Allen Lincoln, were faced with the job of filling up many gaps in the team caused by graduation. Only Young, Blair and Hayes of the starting lineup of ' 33 were back, though there were five lettermen who had seen a great deal of service during the previous sea- son that stepped out to take their regular places on the team. These were Hall at guard, Heath- man at end, Pearson and Poage at the halves, and Ruch at full. Sam King, a reserve guard for two years, stepped out and became one of the most aggressive players on the squad. The soph- omores that came through were Colmore and Eus- tis; the one at tackle and the other at quarter- back. Playing his first year on the varsity squad, big Rupe Colmore was outstanding in every game in which he played, and as a just reward for his fine playing during the year was given Honorable Mention for All-Southeastern. Captain Ralph Ruch who was going at a great rate until hurt in the Vanderbilt game and a broken bone in ' is foot left him unable to play any more, wws one of the most outstanding fullbacks in the Confer- ence, and had he been able to finish th; season, would have covered himself with additional laurels. Seven seniors had fought their last fight for Sewanee on the gridiron of New Orleans when the final whistle blew on the Tulane game on November 24th. They had fought the good fight, but time goes on, and those rules still hold, so Captain Ralph Ruch, Sam King, Marty Heathman, George Hall, Floyd Hayes, Paul Tate and Bud Dyer had to hang up their togs. How to fill these places? That will be Coach Clark ' s problem next September. LETTERMEN SENIORS RUCH was a mainstay of the varsity, was elected the most valuable man, and has played nothing hut the best type of foot- ball. His generalship in th. game and ability to block and back up the line can be testified to by anyone who has been un- fortunate enough to play against him. He was a consistent ground-gainer in his powerful line bucks and was also a val- uable passer. KING gained a name for him- self during the past season be- cause of his ability to hold that line and run interference. He was one of those old dependables who was always where he should be. HALL played three years of jam-up football as a guard. He is a powerfully built man and will be hard to replace. Prob- ably no man on the team was filled with more fight and cour- age than Whale-head. HAYES was a dependable tackle whose ruggedness and bulk made him a valuable man on both de- fense and offense. His career was not sensational or spectac- ular, but was filled with ex- amples of good, steady football. MEMBERS OF THE 3 K r %?3£. « ■ ■ ■ • ' ' .1 ■■■■■ -J. THE TEAM — Receives Instruction — Warms up — Receives Applause VARSITY TATE earned his letter this year through hard and conscientiou- effort. As an understudy to Poage, he didn ' t have much of a chance to carry the ball, but when he did, he usually made an impression. His wit was an invaluable aid to the spirit of the team at all times. HEATHMAN in his last year learned to play ball almost as well as he could talk it. Hi- game was steady and hard-driv- ing. It was Marty who scored the touchdown against Ole Miss and who was on the receiving end of many passes which added to Sewanee ' s yardage. eview c SEASON Off to Memphis for the opening battle with Southwestern. Wow, a heart-breaking defeat, and the Tiger came back with the short end cf a 2-0 score. White broke through to block one of Lefty Poage ' s punts and the ball rolled over the goal line into the end zone for an automatic safety and the only score of the game! No star shone in the backfield for the Tigers, though Colmore began his college career with a bang by blocking several kicks and playing a fine all-around game. Jimmy Blair, as usual, put up a fine defensive game. A driv- ing rain and soaked held kept the Tiger offense from moving on. To be trite, Stars fell on Alabama the next Saturday when the Tigers played in Montgomery against the National Champions, Ala- bama, and went down before the Crimson Tide by 35-6, one of four teams to score on Alabama during the season. Ralph Ruch was the Sewanee star. He intercepted a pass and sprinted 87 yards through the entire ' Bama team to score. Holding the Tide to 14-6 for the first half, the Tigers played good ball, but force of weight and numbers put them down finally. A star-to-be rose up in Hugh Shelton, who played some very fine football at cne of the pivot positions. Ruch was going strong, as evidenced by his run, but Pearson deserved the name Rabbit. Hall and King did well against the gargantuas of the Alabama line. The Tiger tasted v.ctory on October 13, when Tennessee Wesleyan visited the mountain to go down in defeat, 21-0. Ruch, Pearjon and Hartrich scored for the Tigers and Ruch added three placement kicks to round out the scoring fcr the day. Pearson and Hayes did the most valuable work of the afternoon fcr the Purple. The outstanding game of the year for the Purple Tigers was the game played with the Army at West Point on October 20. Going out on the field rather awed by it all, the Tigers were unable to do any- thing during the first half, letting the Army third-string run up twenty points on them. Forget all that, for that second half was truly a battle for anyone ' s money. Playing against the Army first-team, with the exception of Stancock and Buckler, the Purple played most of the time in the Army back yard and successfully held when the Army tried to get anywhere. That valiant, rugged crew from Sewanee were going in that second half! Sam King played around in the Mule backfield, and Hartrich confounded them with passes all over the lot, with the result that these two men were outstanding in Michie Stadium that Saturday afternoon in October. Throwing a terrific scare into the Ole Miss team at Oxford on October 27, when Heathman took a pass from Hartrich to score in the first quarter, the Purple made a fine showing against the Univer- sity of Mississippi until late in the game. Then, worn down by lack of reserves and the weight and number of substitutions thrown against them, the gates came down and three touchdowns were scored, to give away another game, 19-6. Lefty Poage kicked the Delta team all over the place and Jimmy Blair was all over the field holding down his part of the line. LETTERMEN CLARK surely lived up to his name, Fleet, during the past sea- son. His long, specatcular runs through a broken field put his teammates in scoring position many times. Much is expected of him in the season of ' 35. BLAIR was one of the most out- standing men on the team dur- ing the past year. His ability as both a defense and offense man and experience as a center will make him a star on the 1935 varsity, also. POAGE ' S kicking got the Tigers out of many difficult positions during the past year. In this man were found speed, weight, and a passing ability of no mean worth. He also dictated Se- wanee ' s defense and offense. He is a Junior in College. PEARSON was handicapped by his light poundage and had to fight his way up to the varsity. His broken field running and elusiveness gained the admira- tion of all. He has one more year of varsity competition be- fore him. His ability as a de- fensive safety man saved the Purple many scores. M E M B E S OF THE The Sewanee Tigers Play Football 1 ' - p il . VARSITY LETTERMEN DVER is a Senior and will be greatly missed during the com- ing year. He is a husky fellow, weighing around one hundred and eighty pounds, and has the ability to use his weight to its greatest advantage. LUMPKIN is another guard who should prove very valuable when he plays his last year of football next year. This was Henry ' s first eligible year for the football team as he went for one year to the University of South Carolina, where he played Freshman football. ?t SEASON eview c In gaining their second and last victory of the season, the Purple Tigers were forced to slosh and swim to win by 7-6 over T. P. I., and that march to Vanderbilt was on its way! Played in a driving rain, the game was not as close as the score might indicate, for the sta- tistics bear out the Tiger superiority. Fumbles and blocked kicks were the words out there that day. Heathman, Hall and Young all got in front of Tech kicks. Only two passes were tried druing the day — one by each team, and the Sewanee one, Hartrich to Shelton, was good for eight yards. The Purple touchdown came in the third quar- ter when, after a 56-yard drive, Poage got 34 yards on one clip, and then slipped around left end on a reverse and scored standing up. Nonchalantly, Ralph Ruch scored the extra point that brought the margin of victory to the mountain when he went around left end to score. Marty Heathman and George Hall paddled through the mud a bit better than their teammates. It may have been a pre-celebration of Armistice Day for some, but to Sewanee and the Purple Tigers, it was Battle with Vanderbilt. November 10 saw another of the famous Sewanee-Vanderbilt games, but this time the Commodores were just a bit too heavy for the Tigers. Rand Dixon kept the Tigers backed up during the first part of the game with his kicks in the Coffin Corner. All three Commodore touchdowns came on passes, though not directly each time. Big Rupe Colmore again rose to glory when he blocked one of Dixon ' s kicks, and played a fine, all-around game. Sam King and Jimmy Blair sup- ported the middle of the line in fine style. In their last home appearance on Hardee Field, the Tigers were rather disappointing in their loss to Cumberland by 14-0 for the first time in fourteen games. The Tiger, as the favorite, was rather badly outplayed and seemed out of spirit. The absence of Ruch through injury probably had something to do with this. Sewanee showed some drive during the third quarter, but was unable to put the ball over, and the Lawyers from Cumberland went home with a Tiger scalp for the first time in many a year. Hartrich shone on bucking the line, while the middle of the line, as usual, was outstanding for its work. Unfortunately, Hall was hurt and had to be taken from the game, and along with Hayes, injured early in the game, was a great loss. The day was featured as Willie Six day and many alumni and vis- itors were on the mountain to witness the ceremony between the halves. LETTERMEN BROWN was one of those ideal Sophomore halfbacks of which coaches are so desirous. End runs were his specialty but he was also excellent in defense work. He did the punting in Poage ' s absence. Injuries kept him from playing the last of th; season. KIRBY-SMITH will play his last year of football for Sewanee next year. Ned possessed the fighting spirit of all the Kirby- Smiths which was ably demon- strated in his defense work both as center and tackle. SHELTON was an end who came up from last year ' s Fresh- man team. He was good at re- ceiving passes and going down after punts. His defense work was also admirable. In addition, he is an all-round athlete, play- ing tennis and basketball. RAVENEL was just a midget of a man for a football player, but he had enough speed, cour- age, and fight in him to easily overcome this handicap. He should make a good end as a Junior on the 1935 varsity. EUSTIS was a tackling special- ist as his opponents can testify. His position was usually quarter- back, but his chief responsibility was blocking. His weight will be a helpful addition to the teams of 1935 and ' 36. DICK ROLLING started off as an end hut his bulk and strength were needed at tackle, so here he played for most of the season. He and Colmore should be towers of strength in the Purple forward wall when they play football their Junior year. T ■■ - I tftfl ■Ht fcfe? wr d L pb ' i m h i ■ 1 WK fe p ' BI V£ MEMBERS OF THE COLMORE was probably the most powerful man in the for- ward wall. He sent the Tigers into many games with a long, powerful kick-off. He occasion- ally punted and received passes but his main forte was defen- sive work on the line as tackle. He was a Sophomore. evtew o SEASON The Green Wave of Tulane literally swamped the Tigers in New Orleans on November 24, when it ran rough-shod over Sewanee in the tail-ender of the season, 32-0. The game was featured with the playing of the entire team which turned back the strong Tulane team several times as it marched toward the goal. Fleet Clark turned right end and ran 65 yards before being brought down from behind. Simons, the All-American back for the Greenies, scored one touchdown on a beautiful 57-yard jaunt. A second touchdown came through misfor- tune when on fourth down on the ten, Tulane had its half swamped under three Tigers, but some over-anxicus Tiger lineman had been off- side and the penalty, plus the buck of Mr. Lodrigues, gave the Green Wave its second score. The Tulane second and third teams played most of the game, and, although the Tigsr seemed let down, it put up a fine battle before going under. Bud Pearson deserves credit for his snagging of the opposition ' s passes, while Shelton, Young, Hayes and Blair were the stalwarts in the line. At a banquet held November 26 at the Colmore ' s, Ralph Ruch was elected captain of the 1934 team, and letters were awarded to: Harold Eustis, James Blair, Fleet Clark, James Hartrich, Martin Heathman, Edmund Kirby-Smith, Charles Pearson, Malcolm Poage, Paul Tate, Sidney Young, Ralph Ruch, George Hall, Henry Lumpkin, Hugh Shelton, Sam King, Wyatt Brown, Dick Boiling, Bud Dyer, Rupert Cclmore, Floyd Hayes, Theodore Revenel, and Peter Phillips, Manager. Other members of the team were: Bert Dedman, Steward Hull, Billy Fleming, Marvin Travis, Robert Camors, Miles Watkins, Billy Crook, and Tucker Mackenzie. YOUNG was a hard-driving, fleet-footed end who saw service in every game of the season. Noted for his ability to spill in- terference, Pinky was an out- standing flankman. He has one more year of football before him and Sewanee rooters can look forward to seeing some outstand- ing playing. St VARSITY Again, basketball presented Coach Lincoln with a dilemma. He had four letter- men back but all of them were Juniors for the season of 1935 and hence had not the full experience behind them. The start of the season was both bad and good, for Coach Lincoln went down with pneumonia, leaving Gordon Clark the job of rounding out a team. Pearson, Craighill, Sparkman and Kirby-Smith were th? nucleus about which the Purple team of 1935 was built. Rig Rupe Colmore came up from the freshman team to step into center position, while Shelton, Dedman and Turner came up to help fill in any holes left. • The basketball season was opened on the mountain as Clemson journeyed to Sewanee to hand the untrained Tiger a licking by 40-16. Five days later, there came a happy day in the hearts of the entire mountain when the Purple won out over Auburn by 19-18 for the first victory in the conference in three years. Colmore won the game with his foul toss after the final gun, wh;n Pearson had tied it up at 18 all in the last minute of play. Victory unto victory was ours, for a touring Reckley team visited the mountain, losing out by 39-33. For th: visiting team from Union College, the Purple was unable to put forth much of a fight and lost by 28-16. • Against the traditional foe, Vanderbilt, the Tigers played in Nashville and didn ' t fare so well, losing out by the top-heavy score of 47-20. Rud Pearson was the shining light in this defeat, running up seven of our twenty points. On this same trip, the Purple moved over to Cookeville to engage T. P. I. and where a victory had been expected, defeat was tasted, also by an overbalanced score, 39-17. BASKETBAL 4 Page 126 ► BASKETBALL Coming home for the last game before exams, Sewanee was host to Oglethorpe, and they, like good guests ought not to be, were mean to us, defeating us 23-15. By this time, Coach Lincoln was back on the job, but just did not seem to be able to do anything with making his team score enough points to win. The Sewanee fast-break was being stopped too often by the opponents. • Vanderbilt toured to the mountain in a return engagement with the Tigers, after exams, and again the Purple was unable to stop the accurate shooting of Coleman, Plasman, and Geny of the Commodores, losing out by 62-32. At least we got more points this time than before and they didn ' t double the score on us! • A hard week-end trip down to Auburn brought only a tired team and two defeats at the hands of the Plainsmen, by 28-13 and 33 _2 4- I the last game, a substitute went into the game for Auburn and rang up 17 points, jerking the victory away from us. • On the following week-end, the trips for the Mountain Purple were ended when Ole Miss was host to the Tigers, winning the first game 40-20 and then romping on us again by 40-13. T. P. I. came to the mountain and went off with our scalp after a close battle, winning 35-31. • In the last game of the season, Craighill having been lost through illness, the revamped Tigers went into battle with Georgia Tech on the mountain, and after a tight first half, let the Tornado walk away with the game, 42-35. • Thus closed a season which, while not the brightest, had some shining moments in it. Colmore played beautifully all through the season. Pearson again continued his devastating attack on the basket. Sparkman was outstanding on the defense all year and cut many scores down. Losing no men, and gaining a year ' s experience, this team will be powerful in 1936. i Page 127 SITY TENNIS Because at the time the Cap and Gown must go to press none of the tennis matches have been played, only the prospects for the season and the schedule can be given. Interest has been running high for tennis. Practice began im- mediately after basketball season was over. Those in the forefront have been Cyril Yancey, who will probably occupy the lead position of the team, the Number One man; Hugh Shelton, who comes up from the freshman class of last year to go into the Number Two shoes occupied during last year by Yancey; Pinkie Young is right in there for that Number Three position, and his varsity experience of last year should show him in good stead. At Four will be Fred Fudicar, who has also had two years of varsity experience. Doug Vaughan seems to have the fifth place cinched, but for the last place on the team there will be a four-way battle between Stuart Hull, Billy Crook, Bert Dedman, and Binks Ravenel. Numerous matches have been arranged, seven on the mountain and five off, with two tournaments off the mountain thrown in. Matches with Mississippi State, Chattanooga, T. P. I., Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech, Tennessee, and Maryville will occupy the time dur- ing April. During the last month of school, Chattanooga and Ken- tucky will come here, and T. P. I. will be met on their own grounds the day before the Tennessee state meet held there. The Georgia Tech invitational meet will be held in Atlanta and is used as a sort of unofficial basis for choosing the best in the Conference, for the Conference does not hold a tournament of its own. The season should be a bright one, but the loss of Wellford, last year ' s captain and No. 1 man will be felt. Yancey will be playing his last and best year. Shelton will taste his first varsity experience, but should show up well. Young and Fudickar will be battling in there, and the prospects for the season should show more than an even account on the matches. i Page 128 y VARSITY TRACK Coach Allen Lincoln has the prospect of building up his track team with only four letter men back. These are Eby, who runs the 880 and mile; Young, the high-jump: Blair, both the 220 and the 440; and Vaughan, the pole-vault. The team of 1934 had Castleberry, the holder of the Sewanee record, for the shot-put; Doc Cravens, who often won both the 100 and 220 and ran a leg in the relay; John Adair, in the high hurdles; Jim Simmons in the mile, and Homer Starr in the two-mile — all these have to be replaced. What a job! The prospects, though, are bright, fo r many promising recruits have come up from the freshman ranks of last year. Wyatt Brown is going to be valuable both in the shorter dashes, the 100 and 220, and in throwing the discus and javelin. Rupert Colmore will be a worthy successor to the mighty Castleberry in the weights. Thornton will run the 880 and the mile, and will be ably seconded by Ravenel and Turner. Dick Boiling will be in the weights also. Of the returning old men who did not letter in track, there will be Ned Kirby-Smith in the weights; Chitty in the sprints and in the middle distances; and Marty Heathman in the 440, who, it is said, will really run it this year. Fleet Ciark will do part of the sprinting but he will have to battle with Camors, who has come up from the frosh, for his place. Camors is valuable in several different events. At the time of going to press, none of the meets have been held, but with such a large squad and more interest among the students than has been shown in many years, Coach Lincoln says that the prospects are very bright indeed. In order to uncover new talent, the intramural meet will be held first, and then a week later, Vanderbilt will come to Sewanee to battle with us. Then Chattanooga comes up here. In a return meet with Vanderbilt, the Tigers go to Nashville. The Tennessee Intercollegiate Athletic Association is having its meet at T. P. I. this year and Sewanee will be in attendance. If the team shows outstanding merit, some of the men will be sent to the Southeastern Conference meet in Birmingham dur- ing May. Coach Lincoln received an honor when he was appointed on the track committee for the Conference for 1935. 4 Pag; 129 ► R E S H M E N REVIEW OF FOOTBALL SEASON The fall of 1934 brought out a group of freshmen for football with a lot of spirit and pep, and this, plus the very capable coaching of Nig Clark and Laurie Thompson, as his assistant, gave the University a Freshman team of which it can be proud, having won one game and lost one for the year. The freshmen were used in scrimmages against the varsity for the first month of the season, for their first game wasn ' t until October 26, when the T. P. I. Frosh ventured to come to the mountain. The Freshmen scrimmaged against the Se- wanee Military Academy several times and always ended up on the long end of a 50-odd to nothing score. When given their first chance to show their wares, the Class of 1938 shone exceedingly well. On October 26, the T. P. I. Frosh put in their appearance, but went home rather crestfallen under the burden of carrying the goose-egg of a 45-0 score. The visitors lost fifteen yards in all on running plays, while the Frosh gained 224, making 18 first downs. Red Jackson scored twice, Sonny Mongomery three times, and Faidley and Tipps rang the bell once each. For the Purple Tigers, Montgomery with his running, Tipps with his beautiful line plunging and Faidley at guard were the prominent men on the field. More hardening and scrimmaging against the varsity, and the Frosh thought themselves ready for Vanderbilt, but after playing against one of the largest freshman teams in the South and coming out on the short end of a 25-6 score, their minds were changed. The wet field and high winds were against the light and shifty Purple Tigers, and right up the Commodore alley with their heavy line and hard-charging backfield. Vandy scored early in the first q uarter on a 30-yard pass from Dozier to Morrison. The next touchdown came a few minutes later on an intercepted Sewanee pass which Dozier brought back to the Purple 15 and then ran the ball over. Sewanee made a drive of 75 yards in the third quarter but was unable to push the ball over and lost it on downs on the Gold and Black ten. Sewanee ' s score came late in the fourth quarter, when, after a fifty-yard march through passes, a short one from Sneed to Mont- gomery was good for the score and the game ended soon after. For the little Tigers, again Bill Faidley, Sonny Montgomery and Red Jackson were the stars, while Morrison, Agee, and Dozier were best for the Gold and Black rats. At the end of the season, a banquet was held and seventeen players won numerals for their work during the season. They were: Whitley, Sidney Smith, Thornton, Willien, Coleman, Faidley, Griffin, T. T. Phillips, M. F. Jackson, Montgomery, Sneed, Tipps, Gillespie, Suggs, Major, Schuessler, and Walton. There will be plenty of room next year on the varsity for some of these men, and Head Coach Clark will have some willing candidates on his hands to fill those empty places caused by graduation. i Page 130 ATHLETICS 0 0 REVIEW Or BASKETBALL SEASON The Class of 1938 had a most successful year in basketball during the past season, when a good-sized squad, under the tutelage of Coach Laurie Thompson, wen five and lost three of its games. Becau;e the Frosh did not participate in any college freshman games, several transfer students were allowed to play and added much to the skill cf the team. Opening up the season against the strong City High team from Chattanooga, Kostmayer and Ragland made 12 and 10 points respectively, thereby winning the game by 37-26. Ragland kept up his assault on the basket in the next game with Rhea Central High when he got 12 points, with Coleman at center getting his steady eight points. The final score was 30-24 in favor of the Frosh. Running up against the best prep team in the South in the form of the McCallie school from Chattanooga, the frosh quintet was unable to garner mere than 13 points to their opponents ' 44. The Frosh were limited to three field goals by the intense guarding of the Chattanooga boys. Warren got one field goal and two foul shots to lead the Tiger scoring with 4 points. Another strong team from Chattanooga, Central High School, came up to the mountain and took away the token of vic- tory, but net qu.te so one-sided, winning 26-21. Coleman, again, in his steady form, crashed through with six points. Moving back into the win column again, the Tigerettes took on Bridgeport High and won out in a most exciting game by 17-16. Behind at the half by 15-7, the Frosh put on a sprint and with Hetch throwing in a long one in the waning minutes of the game, the victory was assured. Ragland, Hetch, and Ccleman each got four points to tie for the lead. En- gaging Belfast High School in their next game, the Tiger Kittens again put on their victory togs, winning by the long score of 37-21. Coleman was right and got 13 points, while Milward put in some valuable work at guard and yet had time to ring the basket for six points. To make the close games come out even, the Frosh next lest a heart-breaker to Castle Heights Military Academy by 22-21. Warren did yeoman duty in holding the score down and was outstanding for his work in getting the ball off the backboard. To even an old defeat, the Frosh took the measure of Huntland High in their last game, winning easily by 20-11. An outstanding feature of the season was the quantity of equally good material. At the end of the season, Coleman was high point man, getting 43 points, closely followed by Ragland, with 39, and then Warren, with 29, Kostmayer, 23, and Mil- ward, 16. In addition to these above, the following were awarded numerals for their fine work: Burgess, Hetch, Johnston, Scheussler, and Montgomery. Hiram Chamberlain was the manager of the Frosh quint. The scramble for varsity positions is going to be hard next year, with the var- sity composed entirely of the team it had this year, but men on this team will give plenty of fight for some of those position. i Page 131 ► INTERFRATERNITY ATHLETICS As the annual goes to press, only three sports have been completed. The Sigma Nu organization has won or placed in every one of these to garner 35 points, while their closest rivals are the S. A. E. ' s, with 15 points. NO CROSS-COUNTRY THIS YEAR At a meeting of the Interfraternity Athletic Council, it was voted to do away with cross-country because none of the men had time to train. SIGMA NU ' S KEEP A TIGHT HOLD ON VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONSHIP Opening up the season, the Sigma Nu team breezed through without losing a game. They had no serious trouble winning out over the Phi Delta Theta ' s who squeezed out second place. At the end of the season, an All-Star team was formed and played the Sigma Nu team. The Champions ran away with the first game but were unable to stand the vicious attack of the All-Stars and lost the next three games decisively. Wally Hart and Wimpy Holmes were outstanding for the champion Sigma Nu ' s. Ed Warren of the S. A. E. ' s, Bowdoin Craighill of the A. T. O. ' s, and Marshall Turner of the P. D. T. ' s were probably the outstanding players of the season outside of the champion Sigma Nu-ers. TIDE IS TURNED; SIGMA NU ' S WIN BASKETBALL Again the capable organization of Sigma Nu showed a clean bit of play- ing to the field in the interfraternity basketball race, going through their sched- ule undefeated. There were some notable upsets, but not for the top dogs. Pi Kappa Phi went through the season with only two losses and thereby rang up second place. In the fight for third place, the last-year ' s champions, the S. A. E. ' s, had to play off a tie with the Kappa Sigs and won. At the end of the season, an all-star squad was chosen by vote of the members of the teams. Those placing were: Yancey, S. N., and L. Thompson, P. K. P., forwards: Rosenthal, P. K. P., center; and J. Kellerman, K. S., and Peckham, P. G. D., guards. S. A. E. ' S TAKE HANDBALL TITLE FOR FOURTH TIME Fleet Clark and Ed Harrison stepped into the shoes vacated by Dave Clark and Morey Hart to win out over Lee Rowe and Sherlock Holmes of the Sigma Nu ' s in the finals. The competition was not great, for only two matches were played in the entire tournament. The inexperienced Phi ' s sent out a team, but it fell by the wayside before the S. A. E. ' s. The Sigma Nu ' s didn ' t play a match until they got to the finals, and played only two games then, going down in straight games. Note: At the time of going to press, Track, Swimming, Golf, Tennis, and Baseball are not under way, and this writer would hesitate to forecast any re- sults, though these might be tentative. The Beta Theta Pi ' s ought to win swim- ming, if both Hull and Kostmayer swim; Dyer is due to win golf. The base- ball race will be wide open this year, for soft-ball is to be played and anything might happen. Tennis and Track — guess your own way. i Page 132 I HE READER IS PERMITTED— BUT THEN LET HIM SEE, BETTER THAN WE CAN SAY. SOME OF THE FEATURES OF THIS YEAR OF COLLEGE.

Closely identified for more than a decade and nine with the life cf the University, Fitz has been a faith- ful attendant upon both student and fac- ulty activities, classes, games, and chapel services. Many Sewanee students, far and near, will recall the joy registered by Fitz at the ringing of the bell and how sedately he placed himself at the head of the choir procession. At the game, there was no more ardent rooter for Sewanee than Fitz. Surely, he has won his letter S for good and faithful service to the University. Fitz belonged to the Univer- sity, and he recognized and demanded his rights. He was a great fighter in his younger days and would allow no canine intruder upon his campus. The Univer- sity was his. Fitz became famous to the world because of his charge account at the University Supply Store, where he went regularly for his allowance of ice- cream cones. Always among the first to welcome the returning students, Fitz drooped visibly during their absence. As the students left for the holidays on Fri- day, December the fourteenth, Fitz failed for the last time. There are many whom Fitz numbered among his friends, but his special devotion was given to his beloved professor, the Dean of the University, who loved and cared for him. t Page MS V VOCIFERATIONS According to Graham Now it came to pass in the land of Se- wanee, encompassed by the mountains, that there was a great tabernacle. And there was a company of singers, and a beater of cymbals in that place, who ren- dered words before the faces of the assembled Scribes and Pharisees, and the people of the congregation. The Chief Priest, even Moultrie, was placed over the tabernacle. And he gathered together great singers: Johnson, son of Nightingale; Belfcrd, mighty man and leader of the people; Yea, even the loved one, Wilkens; And after that came Vreeland, who singeth like a beautiful Raven; Rosenthal, son of Cantor Rosenthal ; Lines, who begat the Co- dex (which is called Purple) of the place; Allen, he of the stream-lined countenance; Daniel, who writeth false prophesies and lies. And lo, there was McConnell, chief beater of the cymbals, who caused the assemblage to shout aloud in unison. And many more, concerning whom it is not written in the book of the Redish color. Unto these people it was granted they have tabernacle cuts, even more than was granted to the rest. But lo, the people became wicked ; they for- got the promise given unto them that they should have extra tabernacle cuts, and they came no longe r into the place, and there was silence. And the prophecy was fulfilled, and the words of the prophet were true which said, Silence shall be golden; for it was so. But behold, the Chief Priest was wroth. He called together the singers in solemn council. And he raised up his voice before them, and in melancholy tone prophesied that if they did not repent, and return unto their choir stalls, for their iniquity they should be banished forever frcm their privileged posi- tions, and should have to wait upon the Proc- tor ' s words again. But their hearts were hardened against him, and they listened not unto the words of the Chief Priest. They remained in their sinful ways, for they did not come unto the tabernacle. And lo, the Chief Priest grew exceeding wroth, and he drove them forth with words, even harsh words, that beat upon their heads like the hail that descendeth from the heavens. And those who were cast out, could not be comforted, for they said: Now we can no longer sing, and must go to the tabernacle every day, and must look upon the dull faces of the Scribes and Phari- sees, who sit above the people in the high seats. And they carried tablets lamenting that the tabernacle was unfair to union singers. The king, even he who is called Finney, Selah! called together his wise men, Yea, great among them was the Chief Privy Coun- cilor, even Baker, son of Yale, but they could not alter the will of the Chief Priest Moul- trie, fcr he was greater than they in matters of worship in the tabernacle. But lo, it came to pass that there was one among them, even Vreeland, that said, I shall arrange a place, and Ye shall sing, and make a horrible noise unto the sky all the days of the semester, and Ye shall be comforted. And it was so. And they sing even unto this day in th? lobby of the Inn; that place which is a mon- strous structure of uncertain arrangements, but whose gates are not closed to those cut off h the Chief Priest in his wrath. i Page 147 ► LONE HOUR Often it seems on Autumn evenings here, When for a time the stillness all glows gold. And a pale apple green borders the Western edge. A strange and haunting sadness fills this land. It is a time of watchfulness, still waiting. An hour when one may dare to loose the bars Of memory, whose bitter hurt half gone Keeps only in its place a quietness. Perhaps the mountain broods. Deep in its savage heart the visions rise Of unseen, untouched streams and wild, dark, men, Whose mournful foot-prints stand in- delible Wherever sumach, aster, golden rod Sew a barbaric rune of brilliant bead On the grey mountain side. Steady and mute the shadow fingers come Veiling the wild strong splendour that hs loved. Then through the blue of branches over- head. Blessing the sweetness of a Southern night, Our chimes send out their lovely angelus. H. H.
