Tennessee,
a win over Purdue,
two ties with Sewanee.
Dr. John J. Tigert, now president
of the University of Florida and
speaker for today's Founders Day

girls' basketball team in 1912.
Reserved Seats 50c!
Football games then were played
on new Stoll field. The spectators sat
in new Barker stadium, named for
the president of the University. Reserved seats sold for fifty cents. Special trains took rioters to

The Prohibition club of the University was welcoming a meeting of
the International Prohibition Association. William Jennings Bryan was
listed as one of the speakers for the
meeting.
