PEP TALKS GIVEN
Cheer Leaders Elected at Monday
Chapel Meeting
Patriotic Spirit
Abounds in the
Nonpareil Program
A most interesting program was
presented in chapel on Monday
morning as N. S. Tlansdale began by
giving a short talk on the debate
teams for the year and making a plea
for the support of the student body,
in the forthcoming debates. Mr.
Ransdale inspired the audience with
his fervent plea for their support
and it is a forgone conclusion that
his words had a great deal of effect.
Following Ransdale’s talk, “Pep”
Dysard made an appeal for the sup
port of the student body in backing
the athletic teams. He painted a vivid
picture of the effect that the support
of the fans has on a team, and gave
vivid illustrations to prove his points.
Scott Buck then followed with a
short talk along the same lines. The
entire audience was moved by the ap
peals of these two speakers and they,
along with W. B. Parker, were ap
pointed cheer leaders for the remain
der of the year. If the demonstration
in chapel this morning was any indi
cation of the spirit that will be mani
fested during the coming tournament
the opposing teams may as well
watch out.
The patriotic spirit of the society
found expression in last Friday’s
program. The draped colors which
stand for valor, purity and truth
were symbolic of the spirit that per
meated the society during the entire
program.
The society sang with genuine fer
vor the patriotic song, “America, the
Beautiful.” As the sound of “Taps”
floated through the hall the Oath of
Allegiance was given by the society
under the direction of Hattie Sue
Whiteside.
An excellent essay, “The Father of
Our Country,” was given by Cath-
rine Hurley. In this essay she reveal
ed the true George Washington as the
great man he was.
That old favorite, “She Was Just
Sailor’s Sweetheart,” was revived

SPORTSMANSHIP
Sportsmanship can find expression
in more ways than one. There is a
whale of differenc between a “good
sport” and a good sportsman. A good
sport is usually one of these flashy
good-time boys who are your friend
to the end and the end comes
the minute you hit a hard place in
the road. The good sportsman is made
of sterner stuff.
A good sportsman is the fellow who
can get knocked down in the rush of
the game and still get up and grin
and plunge back into the game with
never a thought of personal revenge
but only the thought of victory in his
mind. He is the fellow who congrat
ulates the fellow who is better than
he with a smile on his lips and a feel
ing deep down in his heart that the
man who has beaten him fairly is the
same man under the skin that he is.
He makes no complaints when
things go against him, just grits his
teeth and tries the harder; and he
never grumbles about his task, but
only gets a better hold and tries to
better himself by doing it better than
it has ever been done before.
The true sportsman is the man who
can Back his team, his club, or his
school, even when she is losing, and

nuals or write some catchy phrase in
it that they might remember this
person in days to come. This will be
in vogue for about the last three
weeks of the term. Everyone will
have an annual under his arm at off-
periods, or he will be sorry that he
didn’t buy it sooner, because the an
nual is one thing that will be prized
in days to come when looking back
over one’s days in college.
Several persons outside of the
Laurel ranks have expressed their
opinions as to the construction of the
publication as to how it shall be this
year. Some ideas have been taken in
to consideration; some have not. Yet,
on the whole, all have been carefully
studied for their good and bad points.
Someone suggested a larger annual.
A larger annual cannot be compiled
without material. The number of
pages this year, however, will be ap
proximately 160 in comparison with
120 of last year’s annual.
The athletic section this year is to
be more pronounced and contain a
more just rating of our sports and
those play them. The idea of indi
viduality is to receive more recogni
tion this year. One may see not only
the faces of the individuals but their
names also.
