WHAT PRICE SAM MU HER?
/GENTLE READERS, you di w< n lei< d what h.ippcm d to that great
Knoxville Colh-gf machine this your. You were at a loss to know
now a machine that was good < tough to upset super Morris Brown
and Clark basketball trams for two seasons m suc
te ■ p ' 1 r< r •*" l outhern title could crumble so! The
answer wa simple, Knoxville lost Sain Me Te r.
JaK This Me Tier gentleman is a native of Cincinnati,
J yUHL O 'no where he grew up and joim-d the rank'- of the
’ gx” jH "Eion Tamers," doing a bit of pro basketballmg. He
stands som ( . six f, et and three inches m height and
tips the beams at something like 175. Last season.
I as th? pivot in Coach Wallace O. Hawkins' fasi at-
, tacl{ 11? f * ( an -‘il-time Scoring record for the sea
son’ (‘(‘king up over 325 points during the regular
z chase. He was a unanimous choice for All-South
ern al the clo-e of the campaign This Me Tier
M c TIE~rC f devil was versatile to.. and gut, he had IT ! At
-C£^ r CfZ~ the dose of th. cage conflict he decided to try his
hand at pom-vaulting. Under Hawkins, he developed or improved a
nice technique. However, fie W a : anything but conscientious m
practices. In short, im one out with th e priming
Bulldog squad took his efforts seriously Anyway,
to make a long story short, aft r mussing up < asy -
trials at a little better than nine feet, this Me Tier | ■
d'-mon suddenly got uncanny... and elminat< d <-v- J
irybody including Elmer Baker wh . had held an op- 1* • _____ >
lion on the honot for lour su ce -ive years. He s. t .
• moth. . new record, going a height of 10 feet and A-
0 inches for th.- Tu -k< gee relax Th,, old record. K
held by Baku, w.m 10 feet and 3 inches. That JK
height is nothing to write home about ordinarily.
hut compai div. ly speaking <con -T ■ ing that Negro s
in the southern colleges don't g> in much for vaulting L .
or hurdling!, it w.<s a rare feat Sam was gone^®^** ^^ L EACt
this year and Hawkins paid by dropping liw Q ‘ C

THE FRAT NOISE MOVES ON
IHE GREEK LEI ILK DIN keeps on with a constant drivel. The
worthies of Alpha, Sigma, Kappa, and Omega keep on plugging away.
On March 26 al 7:30 o'clock, twenty imposing physical specimens in
the pink oi condition should take the floor to represent their respective
frats. The Alphas have most to Sl i n in the coming meet, while the
Omegas have littl ( . to gain and ev rything to lose. Billy Nicks says
that he doesn't think this is Sigma'., year. Coach Frank Forbes is
reticent concerning his Kappas.
WE STILL CANNOT BE definite as regards this officiating busi
ness. This bn th is a bit confining at present and affords on? Jittl<
• hance io throw off the INDOOR BLUES. For that reason. w o hesi
tate to speak with authority on just what will evolve. But w? d>
know that sentiment ha s been strongly in favor of colored ofli ials
for quite a. while.
THIS FRAT TOURNEY this year should be one of the most in
(cresting of all years from a point of view of athletics. In many res
pects it will resemble regular intercollegiate games, what with so
£ many performers of the regular si ason in act on? There are for in
stance. Bill Hamilton. Hog Maw Robinson. Marion Cabaniss, Ralph
Long, Le Roy Me Niel. Everett Mapp, Drafton Roberts. Jesse Arnette,
Abe Walker, and Frank Nelson. Then too. Myron Towns, Charlie
( larke Joel Smith, and a few others played all the season with their
teams. We see if this won't be the case. Watch !
