Dr. Ihomas II. McIIatlon, of Atlanta,
Writes Book on “Armchair Gardenias’
BY HUGH KINCHLKY
Even those whose experience
and interest in gardening has not
advanced beyond the considera
tion of window-boxes will be
pleased and entertained and will
gather an abundance of valuable
information by reading “Armchair
Gardening,” by Thomas Hubbard
McIIatlon M. Hort, SC. D„ head
of the Department of Horticulture
and Director of the Garden School
al the University of Georgia.
The delightful volume, just is
sued by the University of Geor
gia Press, presents, according to
its subtitle, “some of the spirit,
philosophy and psychology of the
art of gardening,” and strikingly
introduces the idea that while
most people are conscious of us
ing only (lie sense of sight in en
joying gardens, that gardens can
be u source of pleasure for all
five senses.
Dr. McIIatton even includes the
sense of taste by giving a recipe
for concocting a mint julep, which
reaches the height of enjoyment
when sipped from a frosted glass,
served in a summer house that
reposes in a secluded corner of a
garden.
In a review of Dr. MfcHatton’s
book Tor The Atlanta Constitution,
Dr. John E. Drewry, Dean of tile
Henry Grady School of Journal
ism at the University of Georgia,
says that “those who do not know
Dr. McHatton will, through the
pages of this book, he introduced
to one whose approach to gardens
is that of the philosopher rather
Ilian the practical how-to-do-it
professional. This does not mean
that Dr McIIatton lacks the know
how of the vocational expert, but
rather that he is more interested
in results than methods.”
“In this book for example,”
continued Dr. Drewry, “Dr. Mc-
Halton is more concerned with en
joyment and appreciation of a
garden than with how to grow
flowers and shrubbery. He stress
es the art of gardening rather
than the collection of plants.”
Gardening is a major hobby
among Americans these days, but
even if it does not happen to be
yours, you will find tremendous
profit in pleasure if you secure
a copy of “Armchair Gardening”
from your favorite news-dealer.
A native of Brooklyn, Dr. Mr-
Hatton attended Spring Hill Col
lege, Michigan State College, Cor
nell University and the Iowa State
pastor of the Church of the Most
Blessed Sacrament and Alderman
John J. Sullivan, and short talks
by Father Bede Lightner, O. S. B..
principal of the school: Coach
John J. Beattie, and Assistant
Coach Mamalakis.
Harold McCarthy was elected
captain of the 1948 team with
Neal Greer as. alternate captain.
Awards to outstanding players
were made by Father Bede. These
included the most valuable play-
os trophy to Neal Greer, the out
standing linesman's trophy to Jo
seph Von Waldner and the out
standing backfield trophy to Paul
Gernatt. Greer was also awarded
a medal for being named to the
All-GIAA team, and announce
ment was made that he received
honorary mention on the All-
Southern squad.
Gifts were presented to Coach
es Beattie and Mamalakis by mem
bers of the team, and players who
received sweaters were Thomas
Cooley, Joseph Tilton. R. J. Harp
er. Ducky Moore. Neal Greer. Joe
White, Frank Stapleton, Allen
Walts. Joe Von Waldner, Harold
McCarthy, Tommy Williams. Mike
McCarthy, Bill Kenny. Edward
Whelan. John Kelly. Paul Gernatt,
George McGinn and Fayes Thom
as.
William Oetgen, president of
athletic association, acted as toast
master, and a musical program
presented by Thomas Fahey, Miss
Monica Ulivo and Miss Patty Bar-
rugan was greatly enjoyed.
