President George Minor McLendon, in his twenty- fifth year as leader of the college, is not only a dedicat- ed educator, but a friend of each student on his campus. Under Mr. Mac ' s admin- istration this year, an ad- dition to the Science Build- ing (including an observatory), the completion of the art de- partment, beginning construc- tion of a Vocational Complex, and plans for a new Student Center — all these proved him a progressive president interested in the welfare of his students. With commencement speaker. The Board Board of Trustees, the nine-member gov- erning body of the college, this year ap- proved construction of a new vocational complex, purchase of 158,000 IBM equip- ment, and expansion of college boundaries by including surrounding land as school property. Representing the three counties of Hinds ' district, board members are nominated by county Boards of Education and elected by the county Board of Supervisors. Superintendents of Education from the three counties automatically serve on the Board and the Superintendent from the college ' s home county, Hinds, automatical- ly serves as Board secretary. The Board, established by Hinds Super- visors when the college was organized, sets policies and has final authority on all ques- tions of administration. Left to right, bottom row: G. W. Morgan, F.

Administrative Assistant Robert Mayo, assistant to the President, helps plan college expansions and formulate college policies, screens instructor applica- tions, plans facilities for visiting groups on campus, and visits extensively with high schools in the Hinds three-county area. Named Administrative Assistant in I960, Dr. Mayo is active in MEA work and is one of the directors of the current self-study program. With Mrs. Mayo. 11 James T.

Ole Miss Riots Revisited 30 Beginning before sunrise, the day brought misery and suffering lasting into the afternoon and ending with a climatic court martial for freshmen insubordinates and rable-rousers. At the court martial ' s close, freshmen dragged themselves away to their rooms, mumbling to themselves and proclaiming out loud, Save your starch and pin- rollers; the South will rise again. Ole Miss riots were re-enacted on campus as platoons of freshmen marshalls and scalawags were shot down like mad dogs. Derelict freshmen found themselves exercising outside the recreation hal while early arrivals were herded around campus to pick up litter. During Freshman Day Breakfast brought herds of abom- inations: girls dressed as boys and boys dressed as girls and many more looking like a cross between the two. 31  wm 32 LA DOLCE VITA HALLOWEEN HINDS STYLE Halloween, college style, is filled with more tricks and treats than a kindergarten cele- bration.

Concern for wet hair, wet clothes, wet in- struments, wet music, and wet spirits gave way to loyalty when members of the court, band and Hi-Steppers braved the weather for the halftime crowning.

With A Muddy Red Carpet They Were Welcomed Homecoming at Hinds is the time to welcome former students and to share with them pride in the student body, the football team ' s power, and the campus. With teas, dances, a formal dinner, and the special football game, Hinds this year honored those who returned. They were welcomed, invited to a tea given by the Home Economics Department, served dinner, entertained at a special talent show by the music department, and honored as guests at the game and dance. Despite the rain, alumni had a chance to see and ad- mire the many changes and additions. Faculty committees arranged the decorations and welcoming stations, and students served punch, greeted, and hosted the visitors. At the dance after the game, the court received guests and were honored with the lead-off dance. At left, clock- wise around Queen Hilda, are court members Sharon Bearden, Carmen Cotton, Annis Bell, Kay Bullock, Sandra Jabour, and Bobbye Kitchens. SM Homecoming ' s Havoc A Mud-Splashed 22-6 Victory Ends the Disarrayed, Happy Day The 1962 version of Homecoming was a mass of u nexpected events. Although rain had begun before daylgiht, continuing steadily through- out the day, everyone — especially the football team — had spirits equal- ed to a sunny summer day. The Eagles, on a soft and slippery turf, took an early lead and defeated the much-favored Itawamba troupe 22-6. All in all, it must be said that the Eagles, backed by Coach Joe Ren- froe, gave a not-so-perfect-day a perfect ending. An estimate of the crowd present had to be determined from the number of cars parked in the lots. Most faithful fans tried to view action through water-splotched windshields. Lighting the sky during the crowning ceremonies were bright rockets, pyrotechnic waterfalls and others to exemplify the theme connected with the observatory grand opening. George Benton Center Percy Boell Quarterback Jim Buell Quarterback Opening Tie A crowd at the season opener saw Hinds battle favored Northwest off their feet and tie the Rangers 6-6. The entire game was a foreshadowing of a long sea- son of passing games and immobility on the ground, for early in the period Hinds found the merit of a strong-armed quarter- back and fast ends. Having smothered the Rangers ' extra point try after their lone touchdown, Hinds came back strong- er with a scoring pass from Mike Vincent to end Jimmy Clark. See-saw action do- minated the rest of the game, with both teams frantically turning in long passes in the closing minutes desperately frying to break the tie. Hinds accumulated I 10 yards pass- ing and 18 rushing. They intercepted one Ranger pass, and stole five Ranger fum- bles. After an obviously defensive game, Coach Joe Renfroe nevertheless praised Hinds ' offensive action in the opening upset.

A Perk Ambush The long trip to Perkinston spelled a 42-6 de- feat for Hinds as they never recovered from having their first play called back on an illegal procedure penalty. Less than two minutes after the opening whistle, the conference ' s Number Two team scored their first of five touchdowns. Hinds ' only flurry came early in the second half; fired by the intermission, they launched an of- fensive attack that took them from their own 20 deep into Perk territory. Quarterback Vincent tossed several ground gaining passes to end Rich- ard Stacy and halfback Mike Greer before a 25- yard payoff pitch to Greer erased the Eagle ' s scoreboard goose egg. But the Bulldogs held the Eagles scoreless, despite 152 yards gained in the air and 69 on the ground. Renfroe started a series of line-up shifts in subsequent drills, restationing big George Benton and Bobby James. 43 : Jimmy Dukes Fullback Don Eddy Guard Butch Greer Halfback Two Eagles corner Southwest ' s quarterback. Bear Meat It took four starts before the Eagles could pull a winner, but they got one, 18-12, from the Southwest Bears despite pre-game predictions. Though the favored Bears held the Eagles in check during the first half, they couldn ' t control the powerful Hinds line in the second. The victory- hungry Eagles came out after the half on the bot- tom of a 6-0 score and 45 seconds later they had the score tied. Early in the final period they added insurance, and with seven minutes still remaining Jimmy Clark intercepted a pass on the 50 yard- line and set up the winning talley. Ken Johnson Halfback Dan Magee Halfback 44 Bob James Center David Jones Guard Bulldog Bitten Hinds Eagles scored the first and final touchdowns against Holmes Junior College but just couldn ' t get up enough steam to stop the Bulldogs ' 34-20 win. Hinds ' game was mainly a series of aerial attacks, but the Eagles ' 141 yards by air couldn ' t overcome Holmes ' 232 rush- ing yards. Clark pulled down. Unlucky Charms 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 traveled to Delta, only to be upended by the Tro- jans by 35-6. The Eagles, hampered by the loss of their big 231- pound fullback, Jimmy Dukes, faced an overwhelm- ing tide of Trojans who were fired by a 3,000 plus homecoming crowd at Moorhead. Hitting paydirt in the third quarter for the Eagles ' only score, Jimmy Clark took a pass in the end zone from Vincent. Boell gains. ' 46 Lion Clawed at Home Hinds, suffering from the lack of a scoring punch, mustered almost no significant offensive against East Mis- sissippi as the Lions edged the Eagles 20-0 before a home crowd. Following an opening touchdown, the Lions settled to slow, steady marches down the field for two more TD ' s before the final whistle. Hard-pressed Eagle units stood strong on several fourth downs and on few-yard plays. Frequent pass interception was their main defense. But offensively they were immobile. Magee latches on. Stacy connects. Bobcat Lair Hinds and Jones were rated nearly equal by conference records, but the score after the two teams met proved different. Scoring in every quarter except the second, the victorious Bobcats rolled up 32 points and held the Eagles scoreless. The well-balanced Jones attack produced three touchdowns running and two by air, with their man- power breaking loose after half-time to net two touchdowns in each of the final periods. « James moves in for the tackle. Greer cuts back. 48 . m0 Upset The Mig hty Pearl River Junior College, rated one of the best teams in the circuit, met their match when the Eagles over powered them 28-18. Simply outplaying the invading Wild- cats, Hinds managed to control them throughout the game, handling the pig- skin 80 times while their opponents took control for 44 plays. 49 50 Upsets Galore Continuing to the end with a procession of unprecedented upsets, the Eagles trimmed second seated Co-Lin in the last game of the season. Invading Wesson territory, Hinds ripped their hosts 28-22 to the amazement of the fans as well as the Co-Lin crew. The strong right arm of quarterback Mike Vincent pitched three touchdown tosses for the Eagles with Richard Stacy, Ken Johnson, and Jim- my Clark receiving. Percy Boell made the lone overland TD. Woody Martin Halfback Mike Mahoney Tackle Dwight McGraw Guard Larry Newel Tackle Joe Patterson Fullback Richard Stacy John Stanley Carl Sullivan Oscar Teasley Rick Thrash Mike Vincent End Fullback Guard Tackle Tackle Quarterback 51 Cheerieaders School spirit is the spark that can make or break a good team. A cheerleader full of pep is the epitome of school spirit. He must awaken the will to win in the student body. He is a leader and a follow- er, a single personality and a part of the crowd . . . win or lose he must couragous- ly wave the flag of future victories.

Coaches Renfroe and Rosamond proved themselves to have the necessary leadership ability to guide the Eagle gridders into victory — a victory against both the opposing team and complacency. p : B _ «£ B v)i iKr v t i j 1 I ' .■■: : -K X l| K S hW v M mm jj Hi JM , ♦ i.

Eagles Make Win Column Hinds 1963 edition of Eagle Basketball turned in a misleading record of 13 wins, 10 losses, for in pre-season tilts they looked as though they were initiating an unusual series of victories; in regular play they perplexed spotters with unpredictable late season wins; and in the tournies, they held their own against the best. They took their first scirmage game and in regular season play they won the opener with East Mississippi, 88-71. Then disaster struck in the form of On the Road Blues. With all pre-Christmas home games cancelled, the Eagles won only one of six games away. In this one win Hinds outclassed the University of Mississippi freshmen 100-95 in the holiday invitational at Wesson. Coming back strong after Christmas, Hinds raked in six wins and only two losses on the home court. They added another conference win and two tournament honors to their list of merits along with a pair of conference defeats and two tourney defeats to round out the year: No. 2 team in the southern division.

The Bottom Drops Out The last games before Christmas spelled bad luck for the Eagles as they dropped four out of five contests. In this darkest hour before the dawn of victory, the Eagles lost twice to Southwest, once to Mississippi State freshmen, and once to Co- Lin; but they beat the O ' le Miss freshmen 1 00-95. After the holidays, the Eagles began to win again. With their first home game of the season, they downed the East Mississippi Lions. Using a new fast break technique, Hinds built up an im- pressive 36-29 lead in the first half. Carefully controlling the backboards, the Eagles then slowed their game to a more deliberate offensive effort. The new method of attack paid off in the form of a 90-69 victory. Hill drops two. .r H Home Stand Split Hinds second home game proved a heart- breaker, 61-52. Before a capacity crowd January 17, Perkinston ' s Bulldogs roared past the home crew 29-17 in the first half. But invading Hinds ' gym proved costly for the Pearl River Wildcats two days later. The Eagles pulled a come-from-behind in the second half to snatch the game. Though leading 40-34 at inter- mission, the Wildcats could not control the de- termined Eagles as Will Wade ripped the net for eight field goals and an equal number of charity points. However, Hinds had trouble with the same Pearl River bunch on the home court January 24 and fell victim to the Poplarville based team. Win- ning 66-62, the River ' Cats pushed an intermis- sion deficit score of 29-27 to a win. ...... . ? :,;;v. ::,-,. i V ' ,:.l-0 ' ■.■■■■. ■■:■: Dollar drives out. Stanly jumps for two.

When the Jones version of Bobcat invaded Hinds ' gym they were tossed out following a 78-69 beating. Hinds led 34-25 at the end of the first half and held the point lead until the final buzzer, hitting 79 percent of their charity tosses while the Jones crew hit 67. In the next to last regular game, a scared and batter- ed Bulldog team from Holmes left the Hinds gym follow- ing a 66-60 defeat. Racking up a key win, the Eagles pumped 40 shots into the bucket prior to intermission. Mississippi Delta ' s Trojans stomped into Raymond, but slipped out defeated in a 86-67 season closer. The home crew had complete control throughout the game ; their last pre-tourney game, leading 38-30 at the half. Hines breaks fast. Puckett fakes a break. Dollar iumps for two. Early Tourney Win 78 The Eagles earned their berth in the finals of the South Tournament by upsetting the Copiah-Lincoln Wolves 84-58. Hinds toyed with the Wolves for ten minutes be- fore taking complete command. They led 14-12 mid-way of the first half and seven minutes later had stretched it 26-18. At the halftime break, Co-lin trailed 31-26. Second in South Hinds ' quintet took the Number Two spot in the South Mississippi tournament when the Southwest Bears dropped them on the Summit court 78-67. Getting off to a slow start, the Eagles fought a defensive battle from the first. They never really recovered from the 15-4 lead Southwest stacked up in the opening rounds of play. The Eagles were stunned to ineffectiveness by the loss of Harlan Stanley. Stan- ley suffered a broken nose in a mid-court collision early in the first half, and the Eagles missed !5 consecutive field goal attempts following the ac- cident. 79 Eagle Band And Hi -Steppers If there are two groups on Hinds ' campus whose names are synonymous with the school, those groups would most certainly be the Eagle Band and Hi-Steppers. Known throughout the nation as good-will am- bassadors for the college and the state, the two organizations worked together to present a pro- gram worthy of the groups ' reputation of past years. Having appeared in parades from Buffalo, N. Y., to Colorado Springs; in half-time shows from the Gater Bowl to the Rose Bowl; and in stage shows from New Orleans to Washington, D. C, the group kicked-off the 1963 season of almost 50 performances by marching in the Miss America Parade in Atlantic City. Under the baton of Al Rowan, the scarlet coat- ed marching band and the smaller jazz stage band provided essential background rhythms and sounds for the Hi-Stepper routines. And the ' Steppers, commandeered by Mrs. Alon Bee, stretched them- selves 64 strong from goal line to goal line, kicking, marching, and even twisting. Or, inside, where smaller groups were necessary, the select floor- show groups mamboed, modern jazzed, and Are You From Dixied to the delight of the many and varied audiences. Highlighting this year ' s series of performances were appearances at the famed Krewe Carrollton Carnival Ball during Mardi Gras in New Orleans, the National Tile Convention and the State Lions Convention in Jackson, and the Jackson Federa- tion of Women ' s Clubs ' Spring Festival of Tal- ent in the mamouth Coliseum. m ■ ' ■ it nm Mi 9R tfr s m w mh % fssf J 1 it .J « A IW 0 ' .fW, ' ' v I | i .-. w YL ..- Roommate twirler champions: Lynda Anderson and Beverly Tadloclc. 84 . . .

Having performed all over the state for conventions and gatherings, the Hi-Steppers and stage band crowded into WLBT-TV stu- dios in Jackson for the most widely watch- ed stage performance of their year. In the full 30-minute program, ensemble and fea- ture numbers were presented in front of the stage band and director Rowan accompany- ing. The stage band, under dual leadership of Jim Morris and Rowan, presented in mid- winter their first public concert. Blowing hard, driving, big-band jazz, the group pack- ed the downstars auditorium and were warm- ly received in their first venture without the girls. Engineering Club The Engineering Club is composed of math, engineering, and science majors. Covering every- thing from algebra to Darwin ' s theory of evolu- tion, the Hinds division of an engineering fraterni- ty comprised one of the largest student clubs on campus. Aimed at stimulating and maintaining interest in present day trends in scientific and industrial development, the club ' s monthly meetings consisted of demonstrations, talks by leaders of industry, and field trips to nearby points of interest. As far as the campus was concerned, the Engineering Club stood out as one of the major student organizations, one that took part in campus activity and interest. Newman Club The Newman Club, one of five campus religious organizations which augment the contact between students and area churches, cooperates with the Raymond Catholic Church in sponsoring regular religious programs at the college. With Michael Rabalais as faculty ad- visor, the club continued to grow during 1962-63: well over two dozen members were enrolled during the year. Newman club, one of the most active of the smaller religious organizations at Hinds, sponsored several campus-wide pro- jects, participated in national religious celebrations, and organized a campus ob- servance of the world-wide Cardinal New- man Week in early spring. 86 Alpha Rho Tau Sponsored by the Art Department, Alpha Rho Tau, honorary art club, consists of art majors and others mak- ing valuable contributions to the school and community by rendering useful service in art. During the school year, the art club sponsored exhibi- tions by both student artists and professional artists work- ing in the Jackson area. Trips to local museums and par- ticipation in school programs were only a few checks on the Art Club ' s social calendar. Alpha Rho Tau is advised by Mrs. A. L Denton, Hinds art instructor. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiif ;! !!!iS! •II Hi; Modern Language Club Modern Language Club, sponsored by Miss Hilda Ree Davis, is composed of all students who are enrolled in language courses on the campus. Meeting bi-weekly, the Language Club delved into the lives, environment, and ancestory of the French and Spanish peoples. Guest speakers helped to round out the club meetings as did special programs prepared by the mem- bers. Language majors and those minoring in the field of language, met with students interested in learning more about Spanish and French speaking peoples from films, discussions, and informal programs. 87 Circle K The Circle K Club, Hinds largest ser- vice organization is sponsored by the North Jackson Kiwanis Club. Made up of those selected few from the student body who show increasing interest in the betterment of school enviroment, Cir- cle K promotes good fellowship and high scholarship. This year the Circle K group have pro- moted dances, social functions, pep rallies and those activities which bring a closer union between the student and the college environment in which he lives.

Hi. f Lamplighters Club Membership in the Lamplighters Club is open to college home economics students and to others interested in the field of home economy and family living. The stated purpose of the club is to further and, in some cases, establish an interest in the economics department through related programs and projects for its members. The home economics club, sponsored by Mrs. Robbie Dukes, is affiliated with both state and national organizations, and this year as in the past sent delegates to state and regional conferences. IRC An International Relations Club president once said, We can ' t solve the world problems, so we just talk about them. And talk about them the IRC does. In fact, over this past year, club president, Ralph Hempill states that the club has covered everything from Communism in Cuba to propaganda in Red China. The Social Sciences department sponsors the Club and all those students interested in world affairs were invited for membership. This year ' s membership increased, making larger groups possible in these discussions which displayed varied student opinion. cy •CTjI kpMJ 4 m L £ • ' _ ? «— — Emm Jr ifl . as, y ft Pw ' - « flp ■Bj H BP BUR H T :: i ■m .- .

The collegiate chapter of Future Business Leaders of America and nationally sponsored by the National Educa- tion Association, PBL held regular meetings featuring guest speakers and group discussions on some phase of business and the people who keep business alive. Women members this year, though usually interested in secretarial positions, nearly equaled the number of male members seeking executive placements in industries in the state. Pre Med Society With the upsurge of interest in the medical profession via television and mov- ies, the campus Pre-Med club received pro- portional attention and swelled member- ship this year. In a future in medicine either as tech- nicians, doctors, or nurses, the Pre-Med Society is the newest club on campus hav- ing been organized in December 1961. George B. Davis acted as sponsor of the white clad group, whose interests and programs were as varied as the medical professions they hope to attain. Not only did the organization act as a springboard between students ' science courses and his interest in the medical as- pect of science, but it also afforded an excellent opportunity for those students to participate in lectures, discussions, and extra curricula trips of interest in the field of medicine. Phi Theta Kappa Gamma Lambda of Phi Theta Kappa, na- tional scholastic society for junior colleges, is composed of students whose grades rank in the upper ten per cent of the college en- rollment. This year Phi Theta Kappa was tradition- ally active. Besides sponsoring three talent shows, the chapter promoted student scholar- ship and integrity, and were cited freguently in the national PTK magazine for their success. Climax of the year was the election of John Hannon national vice president at the convention in Miami. Fall initiation of 17. Involving both freshmen and sophomores, spring initiations are usually larger than those in fall. Twenty-four initiates were in- ducted. o !J9 ft o 92 1 .§ Carol Fortier Jane Land Ralph Hemphill Woody May I hereby resolve . . . These words are the first a Hinds debator learns as he starts on his way through the rules and regulations of college debating. Long recognized as one of the state ' s toughest junior college sguads, the Hinds team kept last year ' s tradition as sta te champion by competing successfully against many senior colleges and universities. Sponsored by the speech department and coached by Mrs. H. B. Todd of Mississippi College, Hinds Debate Club travelled to Louisiana State University, Louisiana Tech, Mississippi State College for Women, Millsaps, and Mississippi College, plus many junior colleges and smaller institutions in the state. They capped a season of superior performances by walking off with three excellents and one superior rating in the state junior college speech festival, placing second in overall competition. Mrs. Hollis B. Todd Debate Dawn McNeil Belva Wa+kins 93 Westminster The Westminster Fellowship is an organization for Presbyterian students on the campus. It was organized in 1945 and the group meets weekly to help link church and college life. Not only do the Westminster members have opportunity to take part in special religious pro- grams of the club, but there are also group dis- cussions on religious problems of the day. Those students who agree that college is not the place to forget one ' s religious training have a useful place in the club ' s membership. The Canterbury Club is a special Episcopal re- ligious organization sponsored by Mr. Bill Cakes, faculty advisor. Reverend James Butler, Episcopal minister from Bolton, Mississippi, aids the group in its weekly meetings. Aimed at helping the college student to a better understanding of his religious needs, the Canterbury Club uses its weekly meetings to dis- cuss and outline a program that will be for the betterment of the average student. Al Dahduh, club president, said, Our club, though having a small membership, has been effec- tive and never has there been such an upsurge of interest among the members. Canterbury Club 94 Wesley Foundation The Wesley Foundation is an organization for Methodist students. It is responsible for regular devotations and student morale. The Foundation joins the other religious organizations at the be- ginning of the year to welcome the new students in get acquainted parties and other social ac- tivities. During the regular meetings, the basis for the Methodist beliefs are discussed. The whys and hows of religion are always open to questions. The student is expected to realize a better under- standing of his own beliefs. Baptist Student Union The Baptist Student Union materialized on the Hinds campus in 1927. Its purpose is to conserve Southern Baptist youth for Christian leadership. Co-operating with the other religious groups on campus, the BSU, as it is called by most stu- dents, has as its purpose not only the betterment of the religious life of the students, but also helps to stimulate interest in the student ' s educational background. Miss B. J. Frew is the campus sponsor and religious leader for the Student Union. Presidents Council The Presidents Council student government — in addition to regular legislative duties this year — - composed and passed a new school Constitution which completely revamped Hinds ' system of stu- dent organization. To be replaced by the more tightly organized Associated Student Body next year as prescribed by the new constitution, Presidents Council met regularly to discuss and solve student and organi- zational problems. Composed of club presidents and class officers, it provided the sounding board for both complaints and proposals which success- fully created a more lively student activity pro- gram. With acceptance of the constitution, formal application for membership in Mississippi Inter- collegiate Council was accepted in mid-April. Now able to share governmental problems with other schools, the ASB moved toward 1963-4 over the easy road prepared for them by the Presidents Council. Lendon Players The houselights dim, a hush comes over the audience and the curtain rises. . . . Nothing is guite so exciting as opening night, any Lendon Player will tell you. There is a calmness that comes from confidence and a nervous twitch that comes from the first glare of the lights, but the love of drama is there in every actor, actress, director, stage hand, and prop man. Hinds answers the poet ' s theme: the play ' s the thing, by giving the students a chance to taste every facet of drama through the Lendon Players Club, named for President G. M. Mc- Lendon. Though the club provides a laboratory environ- ment through the production of plays, the Lendon Players also study, discuss, and attend drama in and around Jackson. 96 Choir The choir, striving to make participation in music available for all who desire it, met daily and performed frequently in public under the di- rection of Leslie Reeves. Performing in a series of concerts at various churches on Sunday nights, the choir this year presented a varied program of historic musical periods which showed different styles of com- posers. Hosting the annual Mississippi Junior College Choral Festival and its five hundred student mem- bers, Hinds was joined by ten other colleges for a non-competitive weekend of singing. Members of Hinds choir were chosen for the select massed choir whose performance closed the festival and performed for the opening session of the state Educational Association a week later. The girls ' ensemble, directed by Mrs. J. L. Reeves, performed for numerous small groups throughout the year. Accompanist for the en- semble was Judy Herring, for the choir, Kathy Kilby. Climaxing the year, the groups recorded sev- eral of their most popular selections for a 12-inch Ip and opened them for sale to the public.

George Benton Jerry Clark Off To A Good Start It was a victorious season for the Eagles. Winning six straight and then coming back after non-conference Mississippi State Uni- versity tied them for a first place, Hinds had smooth sailing captur- ing the state junior college track crown after four years off the throne. Setting pace for the year were first-meet winners Johnny Hagan, who took the 100- and 220-yard dashes; George Benton, who scored first places in both the shot and discus; Percy Boell who took the pole vault; Larry Jones, who ran on both winning relay teams; Woody Martin, who started the meet by winning the 880-run and finished the day by taking the third leg of a mile relay; Jerry Clark, who took the broad jump and a leg in the 440-relay and the mile-relay; and his brother, Jimmy, who scored on the 440-run, the 440-relay, and the mile relay. Hinds also scored five second and three third places in the initial contest: Larry Jones took second in the 100- and 220-dashes. Darden Davis grabbed second in the high hurdles and high jump; and Peanut Smith took a hard-earned second in the mile-run. Clark leaps. Take five. Davis darts. LI 10 «m 1 f M ,... ,.,. %, -.

The most exciting times in the running events were performed by Hinds relay teams and Woody Martin ' s half mile effort. Martin, in six meets, had yet to be defeated.

Jerry Clark accumulated I 1 1 2 (despite a pulled muscle) to be named second high scorer of the meet. Nearest team challenger to Hinds was Jones with 3 1 1 ?. Winning first place ribbons for the Eagles were Larry Jones in the 440, Jerry Clark in the broad jump, George Benton in the discus, and Woodie Martin in the 880. These firsts were backed by a second in every other event except the low hurdles and the mile run. Besides Clark ' s near-miss in individual honors, Woody Martin barely missed (0.3 second) b r eaking the old- est j.c. record in the 880-run (1.59.7, sei 1948).

Returning the match, Coach Frank Stephenson ' s and Howard Sessum ' s teams lost a sure two-set lead on the Southwest court when they were rained out. But in the next meet, both Hinds teams suffered a major set back at the hands of Jones, losing five and winning only three against the defending state champions. And subsequently on the Jones court in the return match, Hinds was played down to a second 3-5 defeat. Surging back against Perkinston later that week, the Eagles dropped the Bulldogs 6-2. In an extra meet with Delta before the state tourney, Hinds rounded out a three-win, three-loss season by miss- ing a win 3-1. « -  107 Tennis Tracings by Perry.

Ill WAA Powder-puff football games, basketball, and tumbling are but a small amount of the enjoyment offered sports-minded coeds by the Women ' s Athletic Association. In WAA women students who show special skills and interests in physical education are given a chance to compete in intramurals and to take part in competition with other colleges. One of the high-lights of the year is the group ' s annual trip to the coast for those members compiling fifty or more points. Points are awarded on participation in various activities. 112 Men ' s Recreational Association Typically disregarding everything but the sport of the season, battling dorm and day-student teams vied through out the year in the Men ' s Recreational Association ' s Intramural Program. Daily games attended by enthusiasts cluttered lower campus fields as championship contention was played out in each sport. By the end of the year, Honors Day Program set aside a few minutes for publicly recogniz- ing the winning teams and their captains. Held open to any male student interested in phys-ed, MRA — under leadership of William Oakes, recreation director — expanded this year into one of the biggest intramural series since its organization a few years ago. 114 !

Continuing a traditional honors sweep, the publication was named Mississippi ' s best for the sixth year running by the Mississippi Jun- ior College Press Association.

Graduation The 31st of May was not only the last day of the month, but the last day of the school year. Tears, kisses, hugs, congratula- tions, and laughter mixed with the 90-degree temperature to form that eventful Graduation Day. The navy line of 155 was long — the longest in the history of the school — and the students were not merely students but graduates accepting publicly what they had worked four semesters for. To some the day was a be- ginning and for others an end to school and all that goes with it — but to all it was a personal grad- uation day. The People The sound of voices . . . the shuffle of hurry- ing feet — these are the people. The gregarious masses that become one sensitive, inquiring youth in search of the mysterious, the indefinible, the illusively definable. September initiated the novice, giving Him a sweltering course, pushing Him into unfamiliar cor- ridors, confronting Him with instructors who said, I know the way — come. So started His year, the indecisive one in which He tettered about as the adult in his original world of inhibition. But the seasons go in their pendulum fashion, gathering the novices in one sweep and rapidly converting them into a part of the mass, the crowds that boldly face the standards of institutions ac- cept thern, even challenge some. And now the novice is not. Like a vapor He has diffused in the air, becoming invisible, non-existent. There is no longer the expression of where am I going, but the individual approach of I ' m almost there — you must not hold me back. The rebellion toward the old, the anticipation of the new — they create a new life and thought. Senti- mentality, nostalgia, and altruism are ignored, ridi- culed, and the invigorating — perhaps destructive — gamut of wit against wit scathes the air. Con- sciousness of self . . . the need to preserve self — these are the fountain-heads of the young cynical. Perhaps it is the youth of him to paint a world of Red and Wind, to even long for it, but always to be sure of its unreality, yet still to long, but never face, the funny Gypsy life.

It was an end- less procession of lines and filling out forms. Learning the campus was the most formidable problem, and freshmen were guided about like so many sheep by helpful service clubs who eased as much tension as possible. Meanwhile Sopho- mores stoicly faced the routine. Lunch Break The servers were always so attentive (but I don ' t like spinich); the tea so refreshing; (everyone so alert (my napkin in here, silver in there, books in — oops). And then to the grill for lunch. ??$sit.- ,...,,-. :,, $0mS (mfc I iL Clay Dennis Cooley Judith Rebecca Cooper Thomas Edward Cooper Carmen Lee Cotton Lucy Charlien Cotton John Arthur Couch Barbara Joyce Coward Alex Dwayne Cox Robert Earl Craft Jack Baker Craig Jackie Elaine Creel Warren Creel Jon Benny Crosby Lucious Lamar Crosby Barbara Ann Crumbley Charles Richard Crumbley Bob Lee Currie Dorothy Virginia Curtis Sophomore, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Florence Freshman , Florence Sophomore, Florence Freshman, Brandon Freshman, Columbia Sophomore, Brandon Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman , Heidelberg Vocational, Walnut Grove Freshman, Kosciusko Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Natchez Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Utica Freshman, Utica Albert Dahduh Ronald Servis Dailey Wanda Joy Dailey Dorothy Louise Dainel Jo Adaire Dainel Dottie Kay Darling Gerald Davidson Darden Arthur Davis Mary Ann Davis Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Clinton Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Gulfport Vocational, Walnut Grove Freshman, Clinton Freshman, Jackson Robert Dale Davis Cartie Diane Dearing Olga Sue Deaton Claudia Faye Dees Joe Delagram Charles Robert Dickens Gerald William Dietrick David Lane Dinkins Joe Dobson Sophomore, Pelahatchie Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Vicksburg Freshman, Rosedale Vocational, Jackson Sophomore, Natchez Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Vocational, Lumberton 131 DOTTC BRE lKfieLD 5£CRET ?RY OPhOMORf-CWSS Carlene Frances Dodson Laura Marie Dollar Marion Cooper Dollar Gerald Eugene Donnell Robert Ellis Donnell, Jr. Nelson Conrad Dove Margaret Lee Downing Linda Ann Dragula Elizabeth Ann Drane Mary Carolyn Driskell Charles R.

And considering the new $300,000 facility at the end of its first full year of service, there is no wonder. Students wandered in (3,000 during one week in April, librarians recorded) — meeting their girl friends, studying, reading, and re- laxing in one of the campus ' s most modern facil- ities. s Art Basement This year more than 250 art students moved to the new, spacious, well-lighted department on the ground floor of the li- brary building. Carefully designed by de- partment head, Mrs. Katherine Denton, the new facility included lockers, an audio- visual area, kitchenette, and ample work and display room. Climax of the year ' s series of exhibitions by local artists came in late May when the student exhibition hung for two weeks.

Involving both operation and mainten- ance, the program included sufficient study and flight time for several students to win their license. Competitively Speaking: Intra murals Friendly rivalry between dormitories livened intramural sports in all fields this year. Teachers and coaches helped shape the teams by showing players rudiments, setting up a league competition, and even participating on a faculty team. Open- ing the year with football opened interest in the less professional approach to sports, and groups went about their competition with a vigor that would have pleased any of the President ' s Youth Fitness Boards. f ShHHPHHHHHHHHHHHH W; ill mm ' I Ronald Lee Kellum William Stacy Kellum Mary Earline Kelly Rubye Joyce Kelly John David Kennedy Earl Kidgo Kathy Scott Kilby Carole Killingsworth Bernard Clanton King Bobbye Jeane Kitchens James Alfred Kitchens Martha Ann Knight Edna Patricia Kochie Jerry Thomas Krohn Joseph Charles Kurigur, Ji Beverly Josephine Lachina Earl Ladner Emil Arthur Lagg Hennington Lamar Everett Lynn Lamb Myra Louise Lamberth Mike Lancaster Jane Carlyle Land Michael Wayne Lasseter John Lawrence Lauderdale Robert Stanley Lay, Jr. Bettye Carolyn Lee William Danny Lee William Lee Jerry Smith Legg John Earl Le Getto, III Richard Bernard Leggett John Freeman Leggett Virgil Leonard, Jr. Warner Michael Lindsey Edward Floyd Livingston Freshman, Florence Freshman, Hollandale Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Vocational, Moss Point Sophomore, Raymond Sophomore, Lorman Freshman, Pelahatchie Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Vicksburg Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Vicksburg Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Vocational, Seminary Sophomore, Vicksburg Vocational, Hattiesburg Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Vocational, Houston Sophomore, Clinton Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Madison Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Mount Olive Freshman, Jackson Vocational, Liberty Freshman, Vicksburg Sophomore, Raymond Sophomore, Birmingham Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Vicksburg .43 % 144 Frank Walker Loflin John William Logan Jacqueline Carol Lott Margaret Kay Lovette Charles P.

The first full year of service for the new library, the addition of one of the largest astron- omy labs in this area, the abstractly designed addition to Westside dormitory — one after an- other placed students face to face with 20th Century ideas and attitudes. And at the close of the semester, plans were being laid for new stu- dent union construction, and foundations were being laid for new $300,000 vocational complex. - ■■■■;.;::; Practical Study In the new library, students found an air-con- ditioned haven for just studying as well as for researching the term papers required in most courses. With the card file, reference desk, and listening rooms separated from all reading areas by sound-proof glass walls, students freely asked questions without disturbing anyone. And in the reading rooms, students quietly attacked their as- signments, uniformly assiduous in the one respected place of study on campus. Donald Martin McDanie!

Long recognized as one of the most valuable as- pects of the school, vocational education partici- pated in a state-wide vo-tech survey and saw the beginning of a $300,000 building complex on north campus. Schedule called for occupancy by September 1963 with a program of study greatly benefited by the survey. w;fr ' -; ; :,:- --; ..v$m Donald Parker Mary Klare Parker Palsy Louise Parker Sandra Lee Parkison Barbara Gayle Parkman Charles A.

In addition to the more common-place grill gather- ings, there were the not-too-frequent dances with student-organized combos, and the all-too-frequent bull sessions and card games in dorm rooms. Pre-Game Scrimmage Working from spotter ' s data sheets and game films of opposing teams, Coach Renfroe and his Eagles concentrated on defense in practice ses- sions throughout the season. With drills becom- ing decreasingly difficult as game day neared, the Eagles moved from contact to tag scrimmage weekly. But with drills broken by several Thursday games, the team sometimes found pre-game easing- off already on them before the week had begun. :% — : ; r :: .J:- ! : • HHMHRMIMHHMNmBH Carolyn Jean Rushton Nancy Sue Salter Jacqueline Marie Sanders Tommy Eugene Sanders Sylvia Anne Sandifer Geraldine Sanford Byron Randolph Sawyer Una Jo Schaeffer Sandra Estelle Schilhab Lee Henry Schilling James Burton Scoggins Sybil Ruth Scott Cleveland Russell Searcy Elizabeth Ann Seiti Mary Elizabeth Sellers Fred David Shanks Billy Ogden Shearer Nancy Janet Shearer Ray Shearer Gloria Lajeanne Shirley Pennie Shurley Betty Jean Shivers Alice Diane Shutf George Carroll Shumaker Harriet Shumate Francses Patricia Singleton Bettye Carol Simmons Janelle Simpson Joe Stanley Simpson Samuel Boyd Slade Suzanne Slay Betty Lou Smith Hugh Truett Smith James Keith Smith James Randale Smith James Wilburn Smith Freshman, Laurel Freshman, Purvis Freshman, Vicltsburg Freshman, Jaclcson Freshman, Pelatachie Sophomore, Jaclcson Sophomore, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Brandon Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Sophomore, Bolton Freshman, Raymond Sophomore, Raymond Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Yazoo City Freshman, Pelatachie Sophomore, Raymond Sophomore, Vicksburg Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Jackson Sophomore, Brooklyn Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Vicksburg Freshman, Raymond Sophomore, Raymond Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Jackson Freshman Jackson Freshman, Vicksburg Sophomore, Pelatachie 155 156 Elbert Lee Smith, Jr. Elizabeth Frances Smith Jerry Eugene Smith Joe Edwin Smith Marsha Keith Smith Nancy Louise Smith Patrick Lee Smith Sidney Edward Smith Vera Faye Smithhart James Christapher Sparkman Dallas Wendell Sparks, Jr. Dorothy Frances Speed William Sam Speed Richard Guy Stacey Fred Slade Mike Slade Carolyn Sue Stafford Hartman Harlan Stanley, Jr. David Malachi Stark Judy Elois Statham Aubrey William Stephens Carol Ann Stephenson Andrew Jackson Stevens Gillis Lynn Stevens Phillip Dwight Stevens Sarah Frances Stewart Seth Dwight Stewart Freshman, Jackson Sophomore, Raymond Freshman, Brandon Sophomore, Jackson Freshman, Helena Freshman, Raymond Freshman, Jackson Freshman, Florence Sophomore, Vicksburg Leon Lloyd Stewart Mary Ann Stewart Calvin Leroy Stockdale Eugenie Stogner Sharon Louise Stogner James Frederick Stokes, Jr. Barbara Ellen Stouffer Elizabeth Ann Strickland Earl D.

Freshman, Vicksburg Vocational Grill-Everybody ' s Home The Grill — it was never called the Eagle ' s Nest — marked the focal point of many students ' stay at Hinds. Center for bridge addicts, TV hounds and social butterflies, the grill was where every- body congregated during free 10 o ' clocks Monday and Friday, and where most everybody sguandered many a minute sometime during the day. . .. • j..::,.U_:: ; .: « ■ Remnants of the Past The old court house, the cemetery with its Civil War dead, the colonial homes give insight into what the town around the college once look- ed like. Few students will forget the town square with its water tank or the encircling buildings rem- iniscent of an earlier architectural style. In 1963, the year of Raymond ' s Civil War Centennial Com- memoration, students took an active interest in the historical significance of a town in which tradition is yet a living force.

As a reflection of a few well publicised successes, but one of student life in every phase ... a crowd in the grill watching the world series ... a tired beauty contestant waiting back stage ... a touch football game with the gang in the mud behind the dorm ... a mood ... a face in the crowd . . . and the crowning of a club ' s sweetheart. So when you thumb through these pages and see yourself just being — not doing anything in particular — think of it as a movement recalled from oblivian to remain stamped forever on these pages. Just think, if we hadn ' t taken a picture of it you may not have remembered. The challange of recording these valuable memories seemed constantly before us as we searched for a missing negative, re-layed out a page for the eleventh time or crawled out of bed at 4:00 in the morning to take a picture of the sun- rise only to discover that the sun rose at 7:10 those days and that the day was overcast. It is obvious that every picture in the Eagle will hold a memory. Yours of performing the act that inspired the photographer to snap the shut- ter and ours of surpassing the obsticles to placing its image in the book. It is our wish that you en- |oy your special memories as much as we have en uch he joyed ours. $jddoJ LlatJawL) Belva Watkins The cover: Following careful consideration of all facets of the Hinds Junior College idiom, the ' 63 Eagle staff de- cided to break tradition and not decorate the cover with abstract symbols representing the school. Instead we used the camera, in this vividly realistic portrayal, to try to capture in specific terms that spirit which dominates the core of this institution of higher learning. For those who are interested, the staff is happy to give here technical specifications of this book. Printed by The Hurley Company, Inc., of Camden, Ark., the 1963 Eagle is lithographed on 100 lb. Number One White enamel paper. Covers were manufactured by Durand of Chicago from nile-green Fabrikoid base material with a four-color process print lacquered and tipped on. Throughout the book, copy is set in 10 pt. Vogue lightface on 12 pt. liners; cutlines are set in 6 pt. Vogue bold-face; and heads are set in 18, 24, and 36 pt. Radiant Bold. Class section portraits were made by School Pictures, Inc., and beauty portraits were made by H. O. Pippen Studios, both of Jackson, Miss. All of the 500 other pictures were taken by students and school staff members on two Rolleiflex, a Leica M3 a Leica M2, a Speed Graphic, a Yashika, and a Pola- roid. Flashes were by Heiland, and films mostly Kodak Plus-X, excepting sports action shots which were taken on Kodak Tri-X. Standard Photo Co. of Jackson processed most of the photography, but that which was done in campus darkrooms was developed in Kodak D-76 and printed on Kodak Polycontrast N enlarging paper. Four- color separations for the cover and season pages were made from 8x8 Kodacolor prints by Color Associates of Dallas. This book contains 164 9x12 pages, smythe-sewn in 16 page signatures.
