THE WOLVERINE OBSERVER Page 3 STUDENTS WELCOME GRADS (Continued from Page 1) ing of locations. The doors of Morris Brown College are opened to you at all times. Your very atmosphere car ries inspiration and courage with it and they serve as in centives to stimulate within us the desire to attain, in spite of antagonism and poignant arrays of destruc tive critical juxapositions. The student body thought it very befitting to single you out from the group which has matriculated at our Alma Mater in recent years since she changed location because they felt that you made it possible for the modernites to succeed as they have. Lest you forget Dear Mod ernites, neither have you been forgotten nor have your various fields of intellectual achievement been disregard ed. Your Alma Mater wishes to compliment you on your ability to reach the heights of accomplishment also. It is you upon whom the future classes under the administra tion of the new regime are incumbent and therefore, the responsibility of opening the way for them has fallen upon you just as you modernites patterned after those tenaci ous lovables of the gay nine ties. Constantly, and mindful ly we peruse the journals, our Negro papers of course, and we are struck if nothing therein is relative to you, but are pleased to the innermost portions of our hearts when you have accomplished in your various fields of endeav or. So you can easily see then why you are so welcome upon such an occasion. Your man ner of maneuvering or man- euvure during the progress of the game and your power of immediate cooperation in the cheering will be watched by us so that we may gain something that we can add to our lack of the true spirit. The welcome to which you have access is completely out of the verbal expression. We can see the trees as they would burst forth like spring and the grass as it would straighten up and glitter at the call of the perfume sea son in anticipation of your approach. Therefore, it is not enough to just say that we welcome you or that we have been embued with the type of Morris Brown spirit that you possess, but we can say that our future lies in the palm of your hands which are closed, cutting off our vision and throwing us into a state of darkness, thereby making our very effort in all directions dependent upon you for guid ance. Seeing very definitely the part that you play in our future development and achievement and the realiz ing what is expected of you by your Alma Mater, we beg of you to give us some in sight into this great world of metaphysical speculation and so pave the way by exhibition or exemplification, that the weakest among us may not err and cause derogatory to happen or anything dis- SOUTHERN CLASSIC (Continued from Page 1) ing minutes of the game. This was probably the most stinging defeat suffered by the Wolverines despite the great upset of 1932, when a fumbled punt resulted in a touchdown. The Wolverines of 1933, studded with All-American stars, whitewashed the Pan thers 19 to 0. This game marked the swan song for such stars as “Tiny” Smith, “Shag” Jones, “Bulldog” Har ris, L. Williams, and E. Spur lock. Morris Brown’s first Cham pionship team gained a very decisive victory over Clark in 1934 under Captain DeLoss Berry. The last year’s game was another one of those grueling scoreless ties. With this information one may attempt to pick a win ner for the 1936 Southeast ern Classic. Morris Brown sympathiz ers were given a severe blow at the suspension of Harmon and Hadley, but are still con fident of a Purple victory. Big- Harrison Brown who has been injured a good por tion of the season is expect ed to fill the shoeii of Har mon, and much is expected of him. Rooker (a freshman end), Roby Harris and J. Johnson (guards) are other men that Coach Lockhart has been grooming for the re maining contests. Thus the stage is set for a Morris Brown victory “Turkey Day” The following previous scores were: 1929— Morris Brown 0; Dr. H. D. Canady, coach. Clark, 19; Sam Taylor, coach. 1930— Morris Brown, 0; W. J. Nicks, coach. Clark, 0; W. H. Aiken, coach. 1931— Morris Brown, 6; W. J. Nicks, coach. Clark, 9; W. H.

Clark, ?; Robinson, coach. paraging to be said of our Alma Mater. Again we reiterate to all the Alumni that we are in deed possessed with a spon taneous overflow of pleasure and transient enjoyment to have you visit us and to have you witness this great and significant football classic in w T hich the reputation of Alma Mater is at stake. We wel come you! We welcome you! MOTET CHOIR PRESENTS (Continued from Page 1) Antiphon, “Bless the Lord, 0 My Soul”, Ippoletof, R. B. McMillan. Male Quartet, “Teach Me to Pray”.

ETTA MOTEN THRILLS (Continued from Page 1) ration, 25 per cent contact and 25 per cent initiative. She closed after having given the students a chal lenge as food for thought with flowery phrases that swept the listeners almost in to eternal bliss. Miss Moten’s rendition of “Little Black Boy” held the audience spell bound. The eery presence of her did not fall short of inspiring. THROUGH A KNOT HOLE By “Na.” Mutterings: Wonder if Del la Johnson and Sam Burton will get back “that way”. They are seen talking togeth er again. Frantic urge: While With erspoon is playing his loudest in chapel to step up and pre sent him with a maximum silencer. Silly Notion: To write a Who’s Who column. Then stay hidden from a dozen and eleven critics, I’ll be forced to face. Nervous Itch: To give “Supt.” a complete write-up, and how. Wondering Thought: How would the rest of the campus co-eds take it if we should make known the M. B. C. “Mellow-Dears”. It may please Miss Lillian Grey to know that Mr. John Fudge is up and around a- gain after a long illness. Ambition: To observe and print it with no kick coming from any one concerned. Amusing: That Richard Mack leaves the campus every day near noon to go down and spend the recess hour with the kids on Ashby St. school playground. Imaginable Hilarious Eve ning : Listening to D. L. Smith and “big Clark” competitive ly discuss their romantic con quests. Brute Powell has more girls than any other football star M. B. C. has ever had. Why does Billingslea have to send bacon and eggs special to Blanche Dogan and Thelma Powell. Rev. “Bama” MacMillan is putting in more time in the girls dormitory than he is at his new church.
