During the 18 years that have elapsed since I have
discovered that it is as natural for Dr. Cullom to be
thoughtful and kind as it is for sparks to fly upward.
((Kind hearts are more than coronets) and simple
faith than Norman blood. )
And the good heart possessed by Dr. Cullom is just
one of many in the Wake Forest community. They
are here by the hundreds-among the white and
black, the young as well as the old, the townspeople
and college group. Let any person in the village
have any misfortune, sickness or whatnot, and they'll
rally to his support like blood brothers.

October Issue WAKE FOREST COLLEGE ALUMNI NEWS
TWO THOUSAND ENROLLED AS 114TH SESSION BEGINS
Broughton speaks at opening convocation in New Chapel; 20
faculty additions.
The 114th Session of Wake Forest College is well underway now
with approximately 2,000 students
enrolled, by far the heaviest
registration in the history of the
college.
The opening convocation, held in
the new chapel, was featured with
an address by ex-Governor J.
Melville Broughton '10, who stated
that "no democracy can long
survive as a democracy-or ever
has-as wholly or even predominantly a militaristic nation."
Mr. Broughton explained that
from a standpoint of preparedness
the American plan is safer and
more intelligent than that of Russia, for example, where there is a
large standing army.
"A program of education and
training for
the
demobilized
veteran is not only more democratic; it is more intelligent," he
continued. "Under the American
plan the demobilized veterans of
World War II, the beneficiaries of
the greatest training program in all
history, will be better equipped
either for peace or for war. The
trained, free , and unregimented
youth of America is an infinitely
stronger bulwark of his nation's
safety than is the youth of other
lands whose opportunity is blighted
and spirit quenched by too long extended peace-time military service,
characterized by unending monotony and out-moded tactics."
American Policy
"America is wisely committed to
the policy of a relatively small
peace-time armed force, supplemented by voluntary recruiting
and by a moderate program of
broad military training of our
youth," Broughton declared. "It is
likewise committed to the broadest
program of veterans' education and
training ever attempted in all
history."
There were no dull moments in
Governor Broughton's speech. He
interspersed the serious element of
his address with a fine assortment
of jokes. One of them which went
over particularly well with the students went something like this:
Back when Mr. Broughton was a
freshman at Wake Forest the
registrar had all of the new men
to fill out a questionnaire which,
among other things, called for the
church denomination to which the
student belonged. All of the freshman answered this question except
one who was called in by the registrar and was asked, "Don't you
belong to a church?"
"Yes, sir," the freshman replied,
"But it so happens that I don't
know how to spell the name of my
church; I'm a Presbyterian."
"Never mind about that," the
registrar consoled him; "Just put
a P in the blank space, and that
will suffice."
"I can't do that," the freshman
explained, " 'cause somebody might
think I am a Piscopalean."
Of the more than 2,000 students
registered, 170 are enrolled in our
Medical School at Winston-Salem,
132 in Law on the Wake Forest
campus, and around 1,700 in the
Liberal Arts School here.
About 950 are veterans under
the GI Bill of Rights, and nearly
300 are women.
The enrollment now is nearly six
times as great as that in the spring
of 1944 when only 328 students
were on the campus.
The appointment of 20 new
members of the faculty has been

EUGENE OLIVE TAKES OVER ALUMNI WORK NOVEMBER 1
Recently elected public relations
director. Memory will return to
full-time teaching, and Bost will
continue to handle news bur·e au.
A new department of Public
Relations, including alumni activities, to be directed by the Rev.
Eugene Olive '1 0, has been created
by the trustees of Wake Forest College, according to an announcement
made recently by President Thurman D. Kitchin.
The resignation of the Rev. Mr.
Olive, who has been college chaplain and pastor of the Wake Forest
Baptist Church for the past seven
years, was presented to and accepted by the local church recently
in order that he may assume his
new duties on November 1.
As director of Public Relations
Mr. Olive will be responsible for
giving to the public through publications, correspondence, a n d
visitation information about the
college and its program. He is expected, also, to bring to faculty
members and those whose du.ties
keep them employed on the campus valuable information gained
from his relationship with the public in order that there may be
better understanding and closer co-
Rev. Eugene Olive
operation between the college and
its constituency.
The former office and duties of
the alumni secretary, a position
held for many years by Jasper L.
Memory, Jr., in addition to his responsibilities as a full-time professor in the Department of Education, will be combined with the new
Department of Public Relations.
Professor Memory will return to
his full-time teaching position in
the Education department, and
Tom Bost, Jr., will continue to
handle the college news bureau.
Still another important phase of
the work of the Department of
Public Relations will be the matter
of enlistment, it is announced. The
department will seek to enlist the
goodwill, patronage and financial
support of the public in the expanding program of the college. Cooperation with the Baptist State
Convention in its program of enlargement and removal of the college to Winston-Salem, as well as
with the program of the college
trustees for the same purposes, will
be included among the functions
of this department. It is pointed
out that the department will encourage the making of large gifts
for memorial buildings on the new
site in Winston-Salem and the making of bequests by will for similar
and other purposes for the college.
Before coming to Wake Forest in
1940 Mr. Olive served for a number
of years as a member of the Board
of Trustees of the college. His
former pastorates include Dunn,
Mount Airy, Chapel Hill, and North
Wilkesboro.

CAMPUS AND CLASSROOM ECHOES OF OLD COLLEGE DAYS

college days edited both the ((Old

North Carolina Merchants Association and, on the side, writes a political column entitled ((Capital Letters" for about 30 North Carolina
newspapers. His mother was a

.
Thomas Wolfe in one of his
books-Of Time and the River, I
believe it was-devoted several
pages to the wanderings of October. He told how it settles quietly
on the Maine northwoods and rolls
gently down the Atlantic Seaboard,
hovering with smoky silence in
favorite haunts to gather chestnuts
and bright red apples, before keeping an engagement a little further
south with young boys burning
leaves while their moth~rs try to
get them in for supper.
Wolfe may not have said those
things, but you can see what he
meant when he wrote about October's roaming the land.
Don't ask me why, but October
seems to be a month for reminiscing. Old friends, old times, and
half-forgotten days will gently but
firmly pull you away from your
studies, your wood-chopping, or
whatever you may be doing.
" Come on away with us for just
a few minutes. We'll sweeten
your mind. We love you, for you
are a part of us and we're a part
of you. We don't care what you
are now. It's only the past that
counts with us," they will whisper, meantime tugging, tugging at
your shoulder. And off you fly.
Wool-gathering? Fiddlesticks! The
man who can't have a quiet walk
with memories on a golden October day has no soul. He's too busy
living to live.
The Take-Off
One day in class I heard a sound
like an aviator gunning his motor
for a takeoff. Of course, nobody
was surprised. It was merely Dr.
N. Y. Gulley in his Chevrolet
coupe. It was backing away from
the rear of the library, barely moving in fact. But I always feared
that some wet day his foot would
slip from tha·t clutch and he would
roar into the gymnasium at 60
miles an hour.
On that particular day , as it happened, I caught a ride with him
from Wake·Forest to Raleigh. Since
I didn't feel too safe anyway , what
with him huddled down in the seat
that way and peeping through the
steering wheel, I was particularly
worried that he seemed much
more interested in conversation
than in keeping his mind and his
car on the road.
At that time I was considering
taking law. He said, " Well, young
man, you go ahead and take law
if you want to. If you can make it
the first five years without becoming dishonest and taking all kinds
of cases, you will be all right for
the rest of the way. Get you a
Sunday school class. Meet the
right folks. You may get a little
hungry now and then, but that will
merely add to your character. The
first five years are the hardest. "
Now I don't remember getting
in the car or getting out. If I said
a word to him-I must not have
just sat there-! don't recall it. If
he said anything else, I don 't remember it. But if I had taken law,
I am sure I would have tried to
follow his advice. I have repeated
this admonition to young attorneys, giving Dr. Gulley full credit,
and I imagine that little remark he
made on the ride from Wake Forest to Raleigh has served to help
some struggling lawyer somewhere.
On the night the Administration
Building burned, virtually all of
Wake Forest gathered for its sad
demise. I found myself standing
next to Dr. Benjamin Sledd. The
flames lighted up his fine old patrician face. He was blubbering
like a child that has lost its mother. Huge tears rolled down his
pink cheeks. The goatee on his
chin trembled. He kept repeating, as if he couldn't believe it,
" Burning. Burning. The Administration Building. I could cry. I
could just cry."
One disrespectful student-a
sophomore, probably, though I
don't remember his name- nudged
me and behind his hand said, " I
wish you would just look at old
slick-cr ying like a baby. And at
the same time saying he could cry,
he could just cry. "
Two or three day s afterwards ,
big ropes were obtained and the
boy s set about pulling dow n the
skeleton. Terry Edens, a Texas
foo tball import ee, prov ed very
adept at this , being of a natural
daredevil nature, and t his prompted Dr. Lynch on one of h is Bible
classes to remark that in a student
body of 1,000 boys you could find
someone who could do almost anything. He said there were artists ,
musicians, masons, carpenters , Bible students, and plenty of common
laborers in school at Wake Forest.
Parts of his statement, at least,
proved correct, for a few days later, with the help of NYA and
WP A , the school put scores of boys
to work cleaning bricks and salvaging as much as possible of the
Chapel, which had also burned ,
and the Administration Building.
A few years later bricks were laid
on the old sandy walks about the
campus, and virtually all of this
work was done by students at the
college.
Due to the fact that I never had
the opportunity to have a class under Dr. William Poteat, I associated with him as much as possible,

BURLINGTON MAN
DONATES $40,000
Baptist Hospital and College
Building Funds to Benefit From Gift
A gift of approximately $40,000
from Mr. and Mrs. Walter M. Williams of Burlington for the Wake
Forest College and Baptist Hospital
building programs was announced
recently by college officials.
The gift is in the form of corporate stock and cash, with equal
amounts to each institution. The
stocks are to be sold by the institutions at their discretion and the
proceeds applied on the program
for building the new Wake Forest
plant at Reynolda and the new
hospital plant at Graylyn in Winston-Salem.
Hospital Trustee
Mr. Williams, who is a member
of the Board of Trustees of the
Baptist Hospital and a member of
its executive committee, is general
manager of the Virginia Mills, Incorporated at Swepsonville. He
served for ten years as Moderator
of the Mount Zion Baptist Association, and for a number of years
as chairman of the Board of Education of the Burlington city
schools.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Williams
have been life-long Baptists, active
in the leadership of their church
and prominent in the work of their
denomination.
Officials of the enlargement program point optimistically to this
most recent gift as a spearhead for
the current college year's building
campaign. They indicated that in
time element it coincides almost
exactly with two large gifts made
to the college last year.
FOOTBALL TICKETS
If you want football tickets to
any games the Deacons play, the
man you want to contact is Jim
Weaver, Wake Forest, N. C. His
office telephone number (at the
gymnasium) is 2821. He never
sends anybody tickets C.O.D. or on
credit. So, anticipate your needs
in advance and mail him your
check, figuring the tickets to all of
our games at $3.00 each. The
athletics department requests that
you deal direct with them and not
relay your requests through some
professor or other college official.

NEW DORMITORY
VIRTUALLY COMPLETED
PICTURED above are four members of the class of 1893, all from Shelby originally, and each of them over seventy-five years of age and still carrying on.
They are, from left, George Blanton, a banker; Dr. Charles H. Durham, a minister; Judge E. Yates Webb, federal judge and lawyer; and Dr. Everett B.
Lattimore, a physician. All now reside at Shelby except Dr. Durham whose
home is at Lumberton.

HENRY D. WARD '38, left, of Lumberton, and Montrose W. Egerton '17,
right, of Knoxville, Tennessee, are the
winners of the 1947 alumni-office
awards for having done the most
thorough and comprehensive job in
correcting lists of alumni in their respective areas. Each year the alumni
office has been sending out for correction lists of alumni in about 800 towns
and cities throughout the U. S., and
each year a committee selects the instate and out-of-state winners. Last
year the awards went to Owen L. Norment of Asheville and Dr. George
Modlin of Richmond, Virginia.
Ward is secretary-treasurer of the
Lumberton Trading Co., and Egerton
is an attorney in Knoxville. His son,
Cecil, is now enrolled at WFC as a
freshman.
The alumni office warmly appreciates the unselfish and efficient
work of all the 800 good men who cooperated with us in this undertaking.
As we go to press we have
learned that the new dormitory
located on the old tennis-court site
adjacent to Bostwick dormitory is
virtually completed. Designed by
W. H. Deitrick '16 , Raleigh architect, this building is occupied by
women, and Hunter dormitory has
been given back to the men. A
spokesman for the contractor said
that the panelling of the two main
living rooms and the installation
of the outside columns would be
held up indefinitely because of a
shortage of materials.
The rooms have been attractively equipped with new furniture.
The halls of each of the three floors
have been trimmed in a distinctive
pastel shade. The furniture for
the two living rooms which open
off the main entrance has arrived
and is awaiting the completion of
the wainscoting. The rooms are
to be furnished in gray-green
rugs, well-designed upholstered
chairs and divans, and other attractive accessories.
On its completion, the new dormitory will be among the most
handsome and best equipped in
the state.
Coeds assigned to quarters in
the building seem pleased with its
facilities and arrangement, Miss
Lois Johnson, dean of women,
stated.

The accuracy of the information contained therein is
naturally no more reliable than the sources from
which it was drawn. At the time of registration, the
students were given a questionnaire which contained
this question: "Have any of your near relatives ever
attended Wake Forest? If so, give name and address." From their replies this list was made up.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS CAMPUS FOR SEMINARY
A Committee of F ifteen , appointed last year by t he State Baptist Convention of North Carolina
to study the problem, in Sept ember
recommended that the present
campus be made the site of a new
Southeastern Baptist theological
seminary upon the removal of the
academic and law schools to the
proposed Reynolda site in WinstonSalem. The group wh ich met in
Wake Forest had considered every
alternative, it was reported, and
offered the present suggestion as
the wisest disposition w hich could
be made of the present campus.
The fifteen men met w it h representatives of the Southern Baptist
Convention Committee on Theological Education, which is studying the needs for a new Southern
Baptist seminary in the southeastern area of the United St ates.
After considerable discussion,
the members of the confer en ce
passed two resolutions: ( 1 ) u nanimously calling for the Southern
committee to recommend to the
Convention the establishment of a
new seminary, and ( 2) unanimously recommending to the meeting of the State Convention that
at its 1947 meeting it officially
place the Wake Forest campus before the Southern Baptist Convention as a desirable site for the
Southeastern seminary.
Makes Strong Plea
The Reverend W. Perry Crouch
of Asheville, in a strong plea for
the passing of the measures, suggested that the Wake Forest campus is in a strategic place to serve
the educational needs for at least
one-third of the churches and
members of the Southern Baptist
Convention, and that inasmuch as
Wake Forest College has been significan t in Baptist history for more
t han one hundred years it is the
logical pla ce for a seminary.
Dr. Ralph A. Herring of Winston-Salem presided at the meet-
ing. The committee of fifteen consists of these members: J. Clyde
Turner, Greensboro; Zeno Wall,
Shelby; F. Orion Mixon, Raleigh;
S. Lewis Morgan, Jr., Dunn; N. G.
Hammett, Durham; Clyde E. Baucom, Wilson; B. E. Morris, Durham ; E. N. Gardner, Henderson;
W. Perry Crouch, Asheville; James
B. Turner, Laurinburg; W. H.
Witherspoon, Raleigh; Ronald E.
Wall, Elizabeth City;. R. Knolan
Benfield, Hickory; Edwin E. Perry, Rockingham.
The representatives of the Southern Baptist Convention Committee
on Theological Education were:
Dr. Duke McCall, executive secretary, Southern Baptist Convention, Nashville, Tenn.; Dr. John H.
Buchanan, Birmingham; Dr. Wade
H. Bryant, Roanoke, Va.
While this meeting is not the
final authority, there is no reason
to believe that the State and regional convention will reject the
committee's recommendation.

LAW SCHOOL NEWS
ABOVE: Dr. Howard H. Phillips is the
new president of our alumni unit in
Atlanta, Georgia. He is head of the
department of Biology at Emory University. He and his wife, the former
Miss Frances Dunn of Wake Forest,
and their attractive children visited
Wake Forest recently.
ABOVE: Professor K. T. Raynor and
his bride, the former Miss Beulah Lassiter, who has taught English at Wake
Forest for the past two or three years.
Professor Raynor has taught mathematics at Wake Forest for the past 21
years. The 1947 "Howler was dedicated to him.
There are 128 men and 1 woman
enrolled in the School of Law this
fall. Only 5 of our students are
from States other than North Carolina. Ninety per cent of our students are veterans, thirty-five per
cent are married, and most of these
have their wives with them. The
average age of our students is
twenty-five.
We have a remarkable group of
law students just now, with good
background, maturity, and energy.
At the present time we will take
into our Law School a student who
has completed only two years of
college work with a scholastic average of "C" or better on all work
undertaken. Most of our students
have, however, completed three or
four years of academic work prior
to entering Law School. Subsequent to September 1948, we shall
not take into our Law School any
student who has not completed at
least three years of college work
with a scholastic average of "C."
There are almost 16,000 bound
volumes in the law library. Miss
A. Elizabeth Holt, who joined our
staff last year, devotes her entire
time to the activities of the law
library. Ben Cole and John Ray
are student assistants this year in
the library.
In addition to Dean Robert E.
Lee, the members of the faculty
are: Edgar W. Timberlake, Jr.,
I. Beverly Lake, Albert R . Menard ,
Jr., Allston S. Stubbs, Paul J. Hartman, and William C. Soule. All
except Allston Stubbs, a member
of the Durham bar, are listed as
full-time faculty members. Mrs.
L. R. Kiser is secretary to Dean
Lee.
Dr. Dale F. Stansbury, who succeeded Dr. Gulley as Dean and
who was a part-time member of
our teaching staff last year, is now
at Duke University.
Joseph 0. Tally, Jr., who was
on our faculty during the past year,
has resigned to engage in the practice of law with his father in
Fayetteville.
Dr. Beverly Lake was on the faculty of the University of Florida
Law School during the summer session as a visiting professor.
William C. Soule, who was appointed to our faculty this fall,
holds the B.S. and LL.B. degrees
from Washington and Lee University and the LL.M. degree from
the University of Michigan. He
was an instructor in the Army Finance School. His wife is the former Miss Alice Wall, whose parents live near Wake Forest.
Paul J. Hartman, who also
joined our faculty this year, holds
degrees from Maryville College,
which is located in Tennessee, and
the University of Virginia. He was
engaged in the practice of law for
several years in West Virginia,
and was employed by the State Department in Washington for a short
time prior to his induction into the
U. S. Navy, from which he was
discharged as a commander. He
was a member of the faculty of the
University of Virginia Law School
last year.
The curriculum of the Wake Forest Law School is keeping abreast
of the changes that are taking
place in the legal profession. Comprehensive courses are now being
given in labor law, administrative
law, and taxation. The Law School
has established courses in the argument of trial and appellate court
cases, in the management of a law
office, and in the drafting of all
kinds of legal documents. It is
placing a great deal of emphasis
upon the practical application of
legal principles.
FRANCIS PASCHAL GETS
STATE POSITION
Joel Francis Paschal, son of Dr.
and Mrs. George W. Paschal of
Wake Forest, has been appointed
to the office recently created by the
last North Carolina Legislature of
Inspector of the Administration of
Justice in North Carolina, the duties of which will be to inspect
courts of all grades and to make
recommendations for their improvement to the next session of
General Assembly of North Carolina. He will assume his new duties about the 15th of October of
this year, 1947.
For the past year Mr. Paschal
was on the faculty of Princeton
University. At the same t.ime he
was writing a thesis on "The Life
and Work of Mr. Justice Sutherland" which we understand is now
complete.
Mr. Paschal received his B.A.
degree at Wake Forest in 1935 and
the LL.B. degree in 1938.
School of Religion- Items of Interest
The School of Religion operated
during the summer session under
the general direction of the Dean

married. Mrs. Glass was graduated in the WMU Training School in
Louisville in June. The Glasses
live on upper Faculty A venue in
the house formerly occupied by the
late Prof. Bruce White of the Law
faculty.

The Little Chapel in the Religion-Music Building has been
greatly improved and is now much
used. It is reserved entirely for
religious services. The Ministerial
Association, the Christian Service
group, the Sunday school, the
BTU and other religious groups on
the campus use it weekly. The
student attendance at Sunday
school and BTU this year has broken all records. There is no longer
room for either Sunday school or
BTU general assemblies in the Little Chapel but it is still being used
for such purposes. Chapel attendance this year is the best in many
years. The entire student body
meets three times a week in the
main chapel. Two of the meetings
are religious services and one is a
student assembly. The presence of
so large a number of students and
faculty on Mondays, Wednesdays,
and Fridays at 10:00 o'clock is an
inspiring sight. Alumni and friends
of the college are invited to join

The number rna tricula ted in the
fall semester goes well beyond the
1,000, and the number of ministerial students and religious education majors has reached 175.
About 8 per cent of the ministerial
students are married and have
their families at Wake Forest.
About a dozen of our ministerial
students have entered theological
seminaries this fall. All but one
or two of them went to the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
in Louisville. Two ministerial

FUTURE WAKE FORESTERS
Here is another group of future
Wake Foresters whose parents
were kind enough to fill out the
questionnaire appearing in the last
issue of THE ALUMNI NEws. Each
of these little fellows has received
his or her Wake Forest sticker.
Some day we hope to have the
pleasure of welcoming them to the

ROLL ON YOU DEACONS!
By ToM BosT, JR.
The setting was the same but the
opponent was different. It happened only a short time agoOctober 11 to be exact-and Wake
Forest again was the big news in
the nation's sports headlines following a thrilling 19 to 7 upset victory
over North Carolina's Southern
Conference champions, who in the
pre-season selections were rated
third in the nation. And the players
carried Head Coach Douglas C.
( Peahead) Walker off the field on
their shoulders just as they did 50
weeks ago on October 26, 1946
following Wake forest's glorious
19-6 upset victory over the highly
favored Tennessee Vols, the country's fourth ranking team at that
time. That win over Tennessee
went in the record books as the
nation's outstanding upset of 1946.
Some of the sports fans are already
saying this two-touchdown triumph
over the Tar Heels may eventually
prove the No. 1 upset of the 1947
season. But whether it does or not,
it was a notable triumph over what
one noted sports writer went so
far as to say was "the finest football squad ever assembled in the
South." This victory also enabled
Coach "Peahead" Walker to pull
even in the win-lose column with
Carolina. In ten meetings with the
Tar Heels since Walker took over
in 1937, Wake Forest has won five
and lost five. The genial Deacon
mentor also has the edge over
Canny Carl Snavely, Carolina's
highly regarded head football
coach. Walker's teams have beaten
Snavely twice as against one loss.
The victory over Carolina was
made primarily through the air.
The Deacons exhibited one of the
greatest passing attacks ever witnessed in Tar Heelia. They hit the
bull's-eye 14 times in 22 attempts
for a total gain of 230 yards. Tailback Tom Fetzer of Reidsville set
a blistering pace for the passers
with 12 completions in 16 efforts
for a gain of 198 yards. Fetzer
passed 19 yards to Jim Duncan,
sophomore and a fellow home town
lad from Reidsville, for one touchdown. The circus catch made by
THE most talked about freshman
football player on the Wake Forest
squad is Bouncing Bill Gregus, 185pound speedster from Toledo, Ohio.
Gregus has that undefinable something called "it" and, although he
has yet to show under game fire,
supporters who see him in action
daily are confident he will develop
into one of the finest all-round
backs ever to represent Wake Forest.

nation on rushing defense.

Here is Tom Fetzer, the Reidsville halfback, who took up where his fellow
townsmen Nick Sacrinty left off last year. His passing and punting sparked
the Demon Deacons to their amazing 19-7 upset of University of North Carolina
on October 11. He has one of the most phenomenal passing records in the entire
nation now. In the three games with Georgetown, Clemson, and North Carolina
Fetzer has completed an almost unbelievable 67 per cent of his passes for a
total gain of 460 yards. The exact record shows 25 bull's-eyes in 38 attempts.
He has pitched three touchdown passes, exactly half of the total number of
touchdowns made by Wake Forest thus far. Tom also has a fine punting

his water without being drowned
in the attempt. With that, I turned
on the faucet and he drank. Then
he proceeded to tell me the depth
of the well, the composition of the
water, what caused the deterioration of the stone about the fountain , and what became of the water after he drank it, etc.
" And now," he said, licking his
lips, " I would call us about even."
Whereupon , I tore off to lunch,
arriving too late to get any fried
chicken.
And so this October day I've
wandered with the great for a few
moments. Since I am a part of

on him at his home, the last time
a few weeks before his death.
Wife or Husband
He told me how the holly tree
in his yard was the husband (or
wife, I don't remember which) of
the one next to the Baptist Church.
Dr. Poteat always carried with
him a little pocket microscope, and
once told me that he found something new on the Wake Forest
campus almost every day.
The fountain in the center of
the campus had a faucet on one
side of it. I found from experience that if you didn't turn on the
faucet first, you might get your
face washed at the fountain.
As I was hurrying to lunch one
day , I observed Dr. Poteat getting
a thorough face- washing. His
glasses were wet, and his face was
covered with water.
As he applied his handkerchief
rather vigorously, I walked up and
with tongue in cheek, as was Dr.
Poteat's habit, informed him

to make this an annual survey and
hope that next year we may be
able to vote as sincerely for ourselves. "
