Forty-four years ago there was no school: only the rolling, tree-studded hills — that, and a dream of a pro- gressive educational institution which would someday take its place among the nation ' s outstanding colleges. Forty- four historical years have passed and that dream has be- come a reality. Hinds Junior College has had four outstanding presi- dents, W. N. Taylor, R. E. L. Southerland, G. J. Cain and G. M. McLendon. But the past twenty-four years have be- come known as the McLendon era, the years of constant progress, of a campus jarred with the movement of con- struction and changing of scenes. Under the McLendon administration the old has been replaced by the new. The campus has grown from an original few buildings to more than thirty, and construc- tion is now undergoing a remarkably rapid pace. It is for these reason that the 1962 EAGLE respect- fully dedicates this forty-fourth anniversary edition to President George M. McLendon, a foresighted chief execu- tive whose administration represents an unending caval- cade of great teachers, great visions, and great realizations. Superintendent ' s home, 1917 In The Beginning 1917-1918 Founded as a County Agricultural High School in 1917 with the expressed purpose of providing educational op- portunities at low cost to students willing to work, the school was built on the old home site of J. R. Eggleston, captain of the Merrimac of Merrimac and Monitor fame. W. N. Taylor was elected as the first superintendent. The campus that first year consisted of the Administration Building, two dormitories, then later a power plant, one barn and 74 acres of land — all valued at $86,663.69. The original board consisted of H. V. Watkins, Jack- son, president during his tenure of office from 1918 until his death in 1944; C. S. Spann, Raymond (1918-1923); F. M. Coleman, Jackson, secretary by virture of his position as county superintendent of education (1918-1936) ; D. C. Simmons, Utica (1918-1936); and D. W. Graham, Bolton (1918-1936). The school had an enrollment of 118 students, taught by a staff of eight faculty members, and was admitted to membership in the Southern Association of Secondary Schools during the first year of its existence. First campus building — Administration Building — built at a cost of $21,434.54. This building later became known as the old science building. ., rw  g«™iur; v v f ?

Cain 1930-1938 Dormitory B — the first dormitory for men. It was decided in the first year to introduce mili- tary training, and to require all boys to take the train- ing. A competent instructor was engaged, and all boys were furnished military khaki uniforms. The Raymond Drug Company was the authorized agent of the school for the sale of textbooks. Books used were those adopted by a state commission for use in all agri- cultural schools of the state. The retail dealer was re- quired by law not to sell the books at more than 15 per cent above the wholesale price. Since the school was co-educational, certain restrictions were imposed between the boys and girls. It was not deem- ed wise, however, to separate them entirely. They took their meals together and recited together in the same class rooms. At frequent intervals, on Saturday evenings or Sun- day afternoons, the boys came to the girls ' dormitory for an hour or two together. Aside from this, communication between the boys and girls was limited to the demands of common courtesy. Superintendent Taylor resigned in the spring of 1918 because of illness in his family. R. E. L. Southerland was made acting superintendent for the remainder of that ses- sion and was then elected superintendent. The entire Hinds campus in 1917-1918. 3 siss 5 .

Work On The Farm Was Required In the beginning, all boys were required to take a course in agriculture, covering four years, and a course in manual training, covering two years. The girls took a re- quired course in home economics, covering four years. Theoretical instruction along these lines was supplemented by abundant practical work in the kitchen, dining room and on the farm. A most important function of the school was to stimu- late the agricultural activities on the farms of the county, and a thorough extension department was provided. The institution acted as a clearing house of useful in- formation to the farmers of the county. To this end, a mailing list of the farmers was kept in order that all useful advance information along agricultural lines could be properly disseminated. The school served as the Poor Man ' s College. Before the advent of the agricultural high school, it was impossible for farm boys and girls to obtain education because of prices, but Hinds gave them a chance to work their way through an education. No student was turned away if she or he were willing to work. «i S2 7? , Tf 7- r.; ' .;.;.- ,.? };? ■.;-: ■ ;- ; An acquired modern advance, a Fordson tractor. The College Begins Slowly To Evolve The first year of college work was added to the cur- riculum in 1922, and the first year of high school was dis- continued. That first freshman class had 30 members. Just four years later — in 1926 — the county decided it would do well to add the second year of college work to the curriculum, so it was in 1926 that Hinds Junior College was officially born. That year, also, a new Administration Building was constructed at a cost of $100,000. That same building stands today as the old library building, now called the Audi- torium Building. The fall of ' 26 saw the enrollment pass the 400 mark, with 74 of those registered being college students. The college department grew up in 1928, when it was ad- mitted to membership in the Southern Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools. President Southerland resigned to accept a position as president of Mississippi College for Women, and G. J. Cain became president in 1930. Two faculty homes were con- structed and the enrollment passed 550. The original college herd, consisting of five milk cows. The campus look when military training was required.

THE BEGINNING OF A NEW AWAKENING The growing school had really begun to expand by 1937 when a well-equipped gymnasium, and a second dorm- itory for boys were erected. President Cain resigned to accept a position in the Mississippi State Department of Education, and President G. M. McLendon came as president in 1938. The following year campus driveways were paved; a lighted football field was added; additional shops were constructed; the Civilian Pilot Training program was ap- proved; and the Meat Curing and Cold Storage Plant was constructed as an added service to Hinds County farmers. The commercial department was expanded to increase opportunities in secretarial and commercial sciences in keeping with the college ' s policy of having course offerings to meet the needs of students. The fall of 1940 found over 700 students at Hinds ' portals. An NYA Workshop and a duplex dwelling were built. More recreational facilities were added, and a motion picture machine for visual education was purchased. Meanwhile, the students themselves were wasting no time. State championships in athletic, dramatic and literary events came to the campus each year. Oscar Glaze, chief cook and beloved campus character in 1929, ever-present dispenser of GRITS.

Era Of Expansion The Progressive Years The scenes pictured on these pages have long since vanished, and a new Hinds Junior College has emerged that does not resemble the old. In the past decade Hinds has grown to become one of the leading junior colleges in the nation. President McLendon has the college now engaged in a major two-stage building program. A new science building was dedicated in the spring of 1958. New Administrative and Academic buildings have been constructed along with a new college cafeteria and grill, President ' s home, music building, home economics model home, and new vocational facilities. A new physical education plant for women was dedi- cated in 1959. Two new dormitories for men and two for women have been completed. In January of this year, the new 40,000 volume Hinds library was opened for student use. The campus now contains more than thirty buildings. Under construction at present is a new science depart- ment annex complete with an astronomy observatory. A new faculty housing subdivision is under construction that will contain two and three bedroom homes and apart- ments. Hinds is rapidly moving forward.

Built with the future in mind, the 40,000 volume building can be expanded to accommodate a student body of 4,000. At present, the two levels of the building contain 23,512 square feet of floor space. i The new library represents the forward look on the Hinds campus. The panels on the new science building annex will match those of the library. New and modern buildings fan out from the library, which is planned to be the eventual hub of the campus. With the completion of projected new facilities, the Hinds campus will represent a bold step forward in modern college design. The front of the old administration building, now the Auditorium Building, is still one of the most beautiful and classic models of architecture on the Hinds campus. A Look To The Future 1962-19- The growth and progress of Hinds Junior College has been nothing short of phenomenal. The present yearly en- rollment has increased to more than 1600. And the end is not yet in sight. Plans have been completed for a new art department to be located on the bottom level of the new library. Also in this expansion wil l be a new modern language laboratory. The Auditorium Building is being completely renovated and refurbished and will house the English department and an expanded speech department complete with a little theater. A new facility for the vocational-technical division is planned for immediate construction, along with a long range plan for a new fine arts building and a new student center. The men who long ago, far back in the year of 1917, established the modest three-building campus of the Hinds County Agricultural High School, could not possibly have foreseen an outstanding plant such as Hinds Junior Col- lege has come to be. Hinds stands today as an excellent example of foresighted thinking. Top photo, President ' s home. Bottom photo, home economics model home. Entrance to new science department.

President George M. McLendon The Great Builder President George M. McLendon is a native of Jones County, Mississippi, and received both his B.S. and M.A. degrees from Peabody College in Nashville, Tennessee. He completed additional graduate work in college administra- tion from the University of Chicago. The Administration of President McLendon has been a time in which Hinds Junior College emerged from the embryo stage of a struggling country school into a model junior college institution. Not only has the campus been increased into a sprawl- ing, beautiful area of more than thirty buildings, but other features have been added such as a golf course, lake and lodge, and a first class airport with two hangers and a terminal. President McLendon is married to the former Louise Boyd, of Montgomery County, Mississippi, and they have two married daughters, Mrs. Betty Boyd of Jackson and Mrs. Jesse Claire Thrash of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. President McLendon, known throughout the South as a dedicated educator, has served Hinds for twenty-four years.

The Board Of Trustees Decides Policies The Hinds Junior College Board of Trustees is com- posed of nine members who play a forceful role in the growth and development of the college. The Hinds County Board of Supervisors established the Board of Trustees as the governing body of the school in 1917 when the school was organized. The Board of Trustees serves as the official controller and manager of Hinds. College administrators depend upon this group for guidance in forming college policies, making decisions and solving administrative problems. The loyal men devote much of their time and energy to help the college become one of the most prominent junior college educational institutions in the nation. Members of the Board represent Hinds, Warren and Rankin Counties. Nominations for membership on the Board are made by the county Boards of Education, and members are then elected by the county Board of Super- visors. The Hinds County Superintendent of Education is automatically made Secretary of the Board, and Super- intendents of Education of both other counties are auto- matically made Board members. Mr. F. M. Greaves, prominent business man, banker and cattleman of Bolton, is presently serving as President of the Board of Trustees. 22 Assistant To President Aids College In Various Affairs In July, 1960, Robert M. Mayo was named to the execu- tive position of Administrative Assistant. Mr. Mayo assists the President in administrative affairs, helps make plans for expansion programs, helps decide college policies, screens applications for prospective instruc- tors, and does an extensive amount of high school visita- tions. He also serves as director of the English department and is chairman of the steering committee of the Hinds evaluation program that is now underway. The Administrative Assistant received his B.A. degree from Millsaps College and his M.A. from Peabody College in Nashville, Tennessee. He is a former Hinds County Superintendent of Edu- cation, and prior to coming to Hinds, he served as Super- intendent of City Schools in Clarksdale. The Mayos have three sons, Buddy, Will and Bob.

She holds an A.B. from Bowling Green College of Commerce, M.S. from the University of Denver, and has completed advanced study at Peabody College and Columbia University. She is also a graduate of Hinds Junior College. As an added duty, Miss Herrin teaches classes in busi- ness education. Mildred L. Herrin Directing an administrative position that possesses many crucial problems is the achievement of Hinds Jun- ior College ' s Director of Guidance, Mr. A. L. Denton. He is continually concerned with student conflicts, and is al- ways ready to assist those who confront him. Through his friendly counseling and suggestions, many academic problems can be solved. Through his office, tests are given to determine which fields of study individual students are best suited for. Mr. Denton joined the Hinds faculty in 1935 and for many years was a coach of football, basketball and baseball. He became Director of Guidance in 1954.

She now has the responsibility of directing Hinds Jun- ior College ' s new 40,000 volume, $300,000 plus library, one of the most modern and complete junior college facil- ities in the nation. Many of Mrs. Riggs ' suggestions and ideas went into the construction of the new library. Mrs. Riggs also con- ducts special class lectures for freshmen English composi- tion students on the proper use of the library when writ- ing research papers. Virginia M. Riggs Jack C. Treloar Pat D. Smith Mr. Jack C. Treloar, Superintendent of Farm and Phy- sical Plant, supervises non-academic personnel including grounds and maintenance crews.

FACULTY In addition to dispensing the highest possible quality of instruction and to constantly seek self-improvement in order to meet the pressing intellectual demands of a changing world, the Hinds Junior College teacher attempts to instill in the hearts and minds of the students a great inspiration — to defend our democracy, to meet American ideals. They lighten self-imposed struggles with enthusiasm for a far-set goal. Their reward — the student ' s eagerness to learn. 27 BANK WHERE YOU WORK RCHAN1S PLANTERS BANK The efficient ladies who handle business matters on the Hinds campus are, seated left to right: Miss Margaret Lucas, assistant registrar; Mrs. Mar- garet Kimball, secretary to the President; and Miss Mary Sue McNair, business office secretary.

Instructors And Students Enjoy Modern Facilities From a modest beginning with eight staff members in 1917, Hinds Junior College now has a staff in excess of one hundred. Most instructors have Master ' s degrees in their special fields, and many have completed work toward the Ph.D. Both students and instructors enjoy the latest teaching facilities in all departments. Home economics students have a completely equipped model home; the business depart- ment has the latest of all types of office machines; audio visual aids are available to all departments; and the Hinds science department is recognized as one of the finest in Mississippi. Hinds is constantly on the move both in improving the quality of instruction and in improving plant facilities. A spirit of cooperation is found between students and instructors.

The Eagle Sallie Baker Executive Editor One of the most important and lasting activities on the Hinds campus is the yearbook, THE EAGLE. Each EAGLE represents a milestone hard-striven for on the sometimes rocky and winding road of education. The first official annual was published in 1927 under the title the college newspaper bears today — THE HINDSONIAN. It was not until 1942 that the yearbook became known as the EAGLE. THE EAGLE has progressed from a small 96 page hardback compiled mostly of mug shots to a 208 page padded back that has become one of the finest of its kind. Through the years THE EAGLE has reflected the happenings of the world around it. It has captured glimpses of campus scenes, both those that change from year to year, and those that have remained the same. Pat D. Smith Faculty Advisor 58 Judy Herring, pianist.

Smith Faculty Advisor Rodney Salassi Ralph Hemphill 75 s p o R T S Hinds Has Illustrious Athletic Tradition Of Many Championships The year of 1924 started a long winning streak for Hinds. The Eagles won the state baseball championship that year. The state cup for first place in athletic events went to Hinds in ' 27, ' 28, ' 29, ' 30, and 1936. The track team won the state championship in 1940. The year of 1944 brought the junior college football champ- ionship to Hinds. The 1948 football team went to the Spindle Top Bowl. Going undefeated and untied for the entire 1948 sea- son, the Eaglettes won the state basketball championship, and won again in ' 50 and ' 51. In 1951 Hinds won the state track meet for the fourth time in succession. The football team won the Orleander Bowl game at Galveston, Texas on New Year ' s Day 1952 over San Angelo. Hinds enjoyed a perfect football season in 1954. After an undefeated and untied nine game schedule in the strong Mississippi Junior College Conference, the raging Eagles were invited to play in the Junior Rose Bowl game in Pasadena, Calif. The Eagles topped the El Camino team 13-7 for the national championship. Track teams in 1956 and ' 58 won the Mississippi state title for Hinds. The 1957 Eagle football team possessed one of the most powerful offensive aggregations ever as- sembled in the Mississippi JC circles. Hinds rocked 10 op- ponents and was scored on by only three teams. The 1960 football team compiled an 8-2 record and placed second in the conference. The 1961 track team mile relay squad set a new state record of 3:27.0. n i I V- h I : -tl t ' 3 FIRST ROW LEFT — Donna Van Dyke, Ann Hardin, Edward Froggy Hayes, Patsy Roberts.

Eagles Romp East Central 26-12 Hayden goes into the end zone all alone. In the season opener, the Eagles looked like sure champions by defeating a good East Central Warrior team even more thoroughly than the score appeared. It was Hinds all the way. A bright note of the opener was the revealing -of a powerful air-arm by the Eagles, with quarterbacks Don Fugate and Bobby Luckett both firing touchdown passes. End Ronnie Hayden pulled two touchdown passes from the air. Halfbacks Wilburn Williamson, Donnie Swafford and Clarence Peterson all looked good in the running game. The Eagles went ahead in the first quarter on a 29- yard pass from Don Fugate to Ronnie Hayden, and in the second quarter Luckett connected with end Jimmy Clark to give the Eagles a 14-0 halftime lead. In the third quarter the Warriors scored on an inter- cepted pass and a brilliant 55-yard runback, but ;he fourth quarter was all Hinds as the Eagles pushed ahead by a count of 26-6. The Warriors gained some measure of joy on the last play of the game when quarterback Burnie Whatley faded back and threw a 60-yard touchdown strike to Walley Hill. 84 Eagles Sneak By Bears 14-12 After being delayed thirty-five minutes by a power failure, the Eagles came out of the dark at Summit and found themselves in a game that proved to be all they could handle. The Eagles set the pace for the night by fumbling the ball on the opening play of the game. After holding the Bears, the Birdmen put together a drive that was climaxed by Bobby Luckett ' s plunge into the end zone for the first talley of the game. Bear fullback Edgar Hawkins scored from three yards out to knot the score in the second quarter. The PAT attempt failed and the halftime score remained at 6-6. The Eagles went ahead by 14-6 in the third quarter and a Southwest score in the final period left the score at 14-12 for the Eagles. The Eagles defeated the Bears more soundly according to statistics, but the Bird squad lost several scoring op- portunities because of fumbling and crippling penalties. Hayden sits on the bench and thinks about his misfortunes. Fugate tries to break through. Five Eagles converge on a Bear. 85 Mills and Fugate come in to rack up an Indian. Disaster Strikes Eagles By 14-0 Swafford all alone but the pass is overthrown. A cauldron of witches brew, a night of incredibly bad luck, and a home team fired with huge quantities of pep pills spelled defeat and disaster for the Eagles as they made the longest road trip of the year to be upended by the Itawamba Indians at Fulton, 14-0. The defeat marked the first time the Eagles had been blanked since the 1959 season. And the agonizing fact remained that the Eagles played well enough to win the game. Each time the Eagles neared paydirt they either fumbled, had a pass intercepted or drew a drive-killing penalty. The Indians never put on a sustained drive against the Eagle defensive unit — both Indian scores came on long shot plays. It was a bad night under any consideration. The Indian scores came in the first and fourth quart- ers, both on freak plays. It just was a night that the Eagles should have stayed at home. 86 Eagles Stunned By Bobcats In 8-6 Upset The Eagles hit their season ' s low in the Jones game by being defeated, 3-6, by a team holding down the 12th place standing in a league with 12 members. The Eagles fumbled the ball on the opening kickoff and went from there to worse. The Bobcat score came in the second quarter when the Eagles fumbled on their own one yard line, with Jones recovering. The Bobcats punched over the score and a two- point conversion to lead by 8-0. On the last play of the half, Eagle quarterback Bobby Luckett almost evened the score by running 65 yards only to be pushed out of bounds on the Bobcat one yard line. The Eagles finally scored in the fourth quarter when Luckett ran into the end zone from 20 yards out. The extra point try was fumbled and that was that for the night. Dan Maqee snags a ground-gaining pass. Bobcats recover fumble on Eagle 1 yard line and push over goal. 87 . .. v . Anxious moments along the sideline. Fugate breaks by a host of Trojan tacklers. Eagles Lose Homecoming Thriller 26-18 Peterson almost gone for a touchdown. The Eagles thrilled several thousand Homecoming tans as they staged one of the most spectacular fourth-quarter comebacks ever witnessed in junior college football. Trailing the undefeated Delta Trojans 26-0 going info the final quarter, the Eagles suddenly caught fire and looked like champions as they scored three lightning touch- downs, narrowing the score to 26-18. With a minute left in the game, Eagle halfback Wilburn Williamson intercepted a Trojan pass and the Eagles moved into sight of the Delta goal line. On a fourth down play, with only seconds remaining on the clock, end Jerry Clark momentarily caught a touchdown pass in the end zone only to have it slip from his hands. The same hex that plagued the Eagles in the past three games worked during the first three quarters. An Eagle fumble set up the first Trojan touchdown and two more scores were set up by pass intereceptions. Fourth quarter Eagle touchdowns were scored by Donnie Swafford. Clarence Peterson, and one on a pass from Don Fugate to Wilburn Williamson. The Eagles completely dominated the Trojans in sta- tistics for the Homecoming affair but lost four critical fumbles to one for the Trojans. 88 Eagles Dropped 34-14 By Scooba Bobby Luckett uncorks an aerial. The Eagles suffered their fourth straight loss by falling to the East Mississippi Lions, 34-14, in a game that was much closer than the score indicates. The Eagles received the opening kickoff and scored the first time they had the ball. Quarterback Don Fugate scored the initial tally on a 23-yard rollout around left end. The kick for PAT was no good and the underdog Eagles found themselves with a 6-0 lead. The Lions came back and tied the score at 6-6 at the end of the first quarter, then the game was broken wide open in the second quarter as the Scooba team ran up 20 big additional points. Wilburn Williamson narrowed the gap in the third quarter with a 40-yard touchdown scamper, and the 2- point conversion was good. On three different occasions Eagle backs were in the clear for apparent touchdowns only to be caught from behind at the last moment, and one touchdown pass was dropped in the end zone with not a Lion in sight. The game ended with Hinds on the Scooba six-inch line. Donnie ' Swaffbrd comes around end and meets with a flock of Lion tacklers. 89 Eagles Stop Perk With 20-6 Victory The Eagles had tough going all the way, but ended their losing streak by defeating the Perk Bulldogs 20-6. The Eagles opened the scoring in the first quarter when fullback Dan Magee ran over from the 1-yard line. Late in the first quarter Perk quarterback Johnny Ryan passed to halfback Benny Shows for 45-yards and a touchdown to tie the score for the next two quarters. The Eagles broke the tie late in the third quarter when halfback Wilburn Williamson scored from 4-yards out and quarterback Don Fugate passed to halfback Donnie Swafford for the 2-point conversion. The last score came in the fourth quarter when Eagle quarterback Don Fugate excited the fans with an 84-yard touchdown scamper, one of the longest runs from scrim- mage of the season. All in all, it was a happy night for the Eagles. Three happy Eagles at a pep ralley. Williamson runs over a Bulldog and sets off for a long gain. 90 Coach Renfroe gets excited and tells them how it should be done. Eagles Lose 14-8 Heartbreaker To Holmes Bobby Cumberland breaks loose for a 40 yard scamper. A punt which traveled only four yards into a 25 MPH wind helped the Holmes Bulldogs score a 14 to 8 victory over the Eagles in their last home game of the season. That short kick, by Eagle halfback Wilburn William- son, gaave Holmes possession on the Hinds 21 yard line and, aided by a five-yard penalty, the Bulldogs scored in just six plays. Halfback Johnny Mason got the talley from seven yards out. A run, by Holmes quarterback Bill Cain for an at- tempted two-point conversion, failed. The Bulldogs increased their lead in the second quarter when they recovered a fumble on the Eagle 44. Cain went over for the score from five yards out and then passed to end Johnny Vaught for a two-pointer and a 14-0 lead. The Eagles got their lone touchdown midway the sec- ond period when Don Fugate passed to end Ronnie Hayde n on a 34-yard scoring play. Fugate ran for the two-pointer. The second half was played almost entirely in Holmes territory but the Eagles could not score. 91 Eagles Top Ancient Rivals Then Lose Last Game Of A So-So Season Playing their best offensive game of the season, the Eagles came from behind to down a determined pack of Co-Lin Wolves, 32-26, in a thrilling game of ancient rivals. The Eagles were down 14-0, rallied to go out in front of the Wolves, then fought off Co-Lin threats for an entire quarter. The Eagles started their comeback by scoring twice in the second quarter. Don Fugate sparked a drive to the two yard line where Ken Phillips sneaked over for the tally. The second Eagle tally came when Fugate made a beautiful 24-yard touchdown run. The half ended with Hinds trailing by two points. Hinds went ahead in the third quarter when Donnie Swafford scored from the two-yard line and Fugate passed to Ronnie Hayden for the 2-point PAT. Co-Lin blocked an Eagle kick and recovered the ball on the Eagle 9-yard line. Gene Nesmith knifed over on the first play to tie the score at 20-20. In the fourth quarter Hinds scored twice. One came on a 36-yard run by Dan Magee, and another on a 47-yard pass from Fugate to Hayden. The last score came when Co-Lin quarterback Elmer Smith passed 18-yards to halfback Bobby Wallace for a touchdown. In the last game of the season, the Pearl River Wild- cats, undefeated conference champions and ranked no. one in the nation, slapped the Eagles by 44-6. The only Eagle tally came when Clarence Peterson re- turned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown. The underdog Eagles held the Wildcats for one half but finally fell under the sheer force of power. Quarterback Bobby Luckett is chased by a whole pack of Pearl River Wildcats. 92 BASKETBALL FRONT ROW: Will Wade, Sidney Odom, Sammy Rhodes, George Puckett, Leslie Carter. BACK ROW: David Jones, David Yewell, Graham Taylor, Wayne Hensley, Johnny Hines, Head Coach Troy Ricks. Eagles Reach 1962 State Finals The 1961-62 Hinds Eagle basketball team posted a 10 won and 11 lost record which includes all non-conference games and tournament games, but the Eagles won when it counted the most and ended the season in the State Championship Tournament held at Perkinston. In the finals of the state tournament, the Eagles came within nine points of being state champions. The season was opened with a practice game with the Co-Lin Wolves, which the Eagles lost by 63-72. Northeast Louisiana College freshmen next invaded the local gym for a non-conference tilt, and again the Eagles were de- feated, 82-70. It was predicted before the beginning of the season that the Eagles, under Head Coach Troy Ricks, would have one of their better seasons, but at this point things looked pretty dismal. The Eagles hit the road for their first conference game of the season with the Perkinston Bulldogs at Perkinston, and met with an 89-63 defeat in their first taste of con- ference battle. Things looked even blacker. The Jones Bobcats invaded the Hinds gym for the first home conference of the yet young season. The Jones team was picked before the season as the number one team in the Southern Division, but they met with disaster in the Hinds gym as the Eagles took them by a count of 76-66. In the Jones game, the Eagles played for the first time like championship teams should play It looked as if at last the tide would turn. 94 Eagles Win Second In South Division After a break-even season of five wins and five de- feats in conference play, the Eagles headed for the South Division Championship Tournament at Jones Junior Col- lege, Ellisville. The Eagles defeated Pearl River, 70-57, in a game played the first night of the tournament. The next oppon- ent then was Jones, the overwhelming favorite to take the South Division title. The Bobcats had a season confer- ence record of 8-2, the best on any team in the division. The Eagles were given no serious consideration of winning the game, but they pulled the upset of the year by downing the favored Bobcats by 71-58. The Eagles had to overcome a twelve point Bobcat lead, gain a 36-33 halftime lead and go on to take the game and a berth in the State Championship Finals. On the last night of the South Division finals, the tired Eagle squad met Perkinston and lost the division championship by 67-54.. But they had captured second place in a tournament in which they were not even rated to come close. David Jones sinks two points. Wayne Hensley makes his favorite two-hand jump shot. 95 Eagles Squad Runs After the first Eagle conference victory over Jones, the Southwest Bears invaded the Hinds gym and the Eagles lost a sneaker by 84-82. Three Eagles hit in double figures in the loss: David Yewell with 17, Norman Pace with 23, and Will Wade with 25. The Eagles then traveled to M onroe, La., for a return match with the Northeast frosh, losing for the second time to the Cajun team, 70-52. The Eagles broke back into the win column with a home victory over the Perkinston Bulldogs, 88-67. High Eagle scorer was Will Wade with 26 points. Yewell hit 22 and Jones 12. The Eagle defensive unit showed well in the victory over Perk. The Eagles turned cold on their next road game and dropped a 52-39 loss to the Co-Lin Wolves at Wesson. The only Eagle hot that night was David Jones with 16 points. Will Wade hits the hardwood. Norman Pace out jumps an Indian. Sidney Odom puts in two. 96 Hot And Cold The next game was a road trip to Poplarville and a battle with the tall Pearl River Wildcats, with the Eagles hot this night and winning by 68-55. The Eagles caught fire in the second half and scored 40 points. High man was Wayne Hensley with 21 points. At this point in the season, a small feat of magic seemed to work. A replica of Bozo, a famed iron elephant mascot of former days, again appeared on the Hinds bask- etball floor. In Bozo ' s first appearance, the Eagles de- feated the invading Co-Lin Wolves by 70-62, after having lost two previous games to the Wolves. With Bozo back on the sidelines, giving a seeming lift to the team and students, the Eagles went undefeated for the rest of the season on their home court. Whether Bozo really had any magic or not, the Eagles suddenly became a different team. Hensley passes down-court to Wade. Wade shoots from the side. Odom jumps out of the gym. 97 a BOZO Eagles Close Season The Eagles next met the Mississippi State University freshmen in the local gym — again with Bozo present — and won over the highly rated team, 77-73, for the first victory over a State frosh squad in many years. Another road game to Southwest at Summit proved disaster as the Eagles lost, to the Bears by 94-79, the second loss to Southwest during the season. The Eagles had four players, Hensley, Odom, Rhodes and Yewell, in double figures, but still lost. , The next game was in the win column as the Eagles downed Pearl River in the local gym by 64-61, the sec- ond victory over the Wildcats of the season. High man for Hinds was Will Wade with 20 points. Road trips proved unlucky for the Eagles, for a trip to Goodman produced a loss to Holmes by 81-69. Bozo the Magic Mascot goes to work. Eagle David Yewell (44) and Bulldog Johnson do the twist. n Fast Style The next road trip, to Mississippi Delta at Moorhead, proved not so bad as the Eagles took the Trojans 64-62 in a close one. The Eagles were behind 35-31 at the half but Wade and Yewell pulled the team ahead to win. Again on the road, the Eagles traveled to Ellisville to meet the highly regarded Jones Bobcats, and blew a 26-24 halftime lead to go down by 70-54. The last regular season game was at home with a return match with the Holmes Bulldogs. Bozo ' s magic on the home court could not be broken, and Hinds topped the Holmes crew by 75-68. The Holmes win ran the home court victory string to five games — not a loss since the appearance of Bozo. In the State Championship finals, the Eagles lost to undefeated Itawamba by 65-56. They dropped a 12-point lead and almost captured the state championship. Will Wade sacks in two. Yewell uses his famous hook shot. Pace outjumps the Bobcats while Yewell watches. 99 FRONT ROW, left to right Jimmy Chandler, Bobby Westerfield, Ed Frazier, Woody Martin, Lance Rose. BACK ROW, left to right: Jimmy Clark, Jerry Clark, Ken Phillips, Pat Conerly, Johnny Stanley, Track Coach Ivan Rosamond. ' 62 Track Team Has Rebuilding Job The 1962 track team, directed by coach Ivan Rosa- mond, has a major rebuilding job to do, but prospects seem good for a successful season. Such 1961 stars as Donnie Swafford, Wilburn William- son, Donnie Ross, Howard Freeman and many others will be missed, but Rosamond will have several returnees from the squad that captured a tie for third place in the state meet. The ' 61 mile relay team, composed of Wilburn William- son, Burt Sullivan, Donnie Ross and John DeWitt set a new state record of 3:27.0. Pat Conerly and Ed Frazier are returnees from the ' 61 team, and possibly several others will join before the beginning of the ' 62 season. Several freshmen, however, show great promise. The Clark twins, Jimmy and Jerry, were outstanding track stars at Yazoo City and in Louisiana previous to moving to Mississippi. Both will be counted on heavily in the track events. The 1962 track season opened April 3, after the ' 62 Eagle went to press. Pole vaulter Joe Dickerson clears the bar. 100 Tennis Team Has Five Returnees The 1962 tennis team, under the direction of coach Bill Oakes, will have five returnees from a ' 61 team that lost to Perkinston by only one point for the state champion- ship. However, the two most outstanding stars, Rex Carson and Tommy Jackson, graduated and will be greatly missed. The hard core of the team will be returnees Conrad Roberson, Tommey Pullen, Wendle Hollis, David Watkins and Bill Heard. Many talented freshmen will be counted on to strengthen the squad. Hinds will also have a girls team in ' 62, and team tryouts were underway when the Eagle went to press. Miss Polly Harrington will coach the girls. In addition to matches with other colleges, six team members will represent Hinds in the championship tourna- ment. Hinds has always fielded a strong net squad. Returnees Roberson, Pullen, Hollis and Watkins. Not pictured is Bill Heard. ELW ' l6 T t0 ri ? ht: „ Jil S my , ay ' Harry Bruner ' David Catkins, Billy Vaughn.

A losinii effort 145 VOCATIONAL DEPARTMENT 146 Hinds Junior College has been a pioneer in the South in training skilled, efficient workers for industry. Many industrialists have named the Hinds program as a signifi- cant factor in the industrial growth of Mississippi. The Hinds program covers not only industry, but also many other specialized fields in which skilled workers are needed. Many of the students who have graduated from the Hinds vocational division have established successful busi- ness firms of their own, and many have gone into the management and sales fields. Fields covered by the Hinds program include auto body and fender repair, auto mechanics, woodwork, ma- chine shop, radio and television, general electricity and wiring, refrigeration and air conditioning, electric motor repair, office machines repair, barbering, and airplane and airplane engine repair. 147 ROBERT BECKHAM Raymond Machine Shop BOBBY BARTON Columbus Auto Mechanics Electronics Students Gong Sit and Joe Abies of Vicksburg tune a self-made electronic brain that can outthink humans.

THE JANUARY SNOW ADVERTISING The 1962 Eagle is the largest yearbook ever published at Hinds Junior College, and the first in a nine by twelve size. The book has also broken all records for color print- ing. Nothing has been spared in an attempt to make this progress edition the finest yearbook published in the his- tory of the college. Without our advertisers, this yearbook would yet re- main merely a dream. Never before have advertisers re- sponded so willingly as they have for the 1962 Eagle. We owe them our deepest appreciation. We hope that you will use the advertising section as a buyers guide, for they are truly your friends — with- out them, you would not have this special progress edition yearbook. Again, we say thanks.
