Piedmont College - Yonahian Yearbook (Demorest, GA)

Text from Pages 1 - 118 of the 1958 volume:

f Introducing . . f- - - Zhe Students of Piedmont College featured in foreword 7 A year filled with laughter, sweat and tears will long be remembered by an eager student body and a devoted faculty as the school year of 1958. The laughter of social gatherings and private con-fabs, the sweat and worry over studies, the tears at the loss of our beloved Dean have all had their effect on our lives. It is our hope that, as this year leaves us, we are the wiser and happier for it. I am part of all I meet and all is a part of me. In the hope of creating a worthy souvenir of memorable days at Piedmont, we, the Yonahian Staff of 1958, invite you to join us in this SONG OF PIEDMONT =i e: Ur. + I Irs. Ueniomin U. Dcott J Dr. and Mrs. Scott brought to Piedmont so many of the good things in life — their belief in God, their interest in all young people, their knowledge of art and culture. Dr. Scott as Dean of the college was to each of us a friend as well as an advisor. Mrs. Scott as Dean of Women and Housemother of Commons has instilled in all of her girls the importance of living good, clean, and honest lives. Piedmont College suffered a great loss in the death of Dr. Scott, but the memory of his cheerful smile and encouraging word will always be remembered by every faculty member and student who knew and loved him. Through the dedication of this annual, we now express to Dr. Scott and to Mrs. Scott our appreciation of the work they have done for Piedmont and for the great in- fluence they have had in the lives of the students here.

Zhe ftoard of Zr us tees Zhe President ' s Message We continue to believe in the Mark Hopkins philosophy of educa- tion and acknowledge that an able and inspiring teacher on one end of the log and an eager student on the other, make up an effective teaching and learning situation. We rejoice, however, in the knowledge that comfortable classrooms and well- equipped laboratories will be avail- able next fall to our science students and faculty. Our big heartache of the year was the loss of Dean Benjamin D. Scott. His sterling character and indefati- gable enthusiasm for every good and noble program shall dwell in our hearts forever. I am deeply grateful also for the wonderful leadership of our younger faculty members who responded to the needs of the hour and served our college with unflagging devotion, in season and out of season. I salute especially Professor O ' Neal Cave, Acting Dean, Dr. Ch ar- les D. Clement, Treasurer and Assistant to the Acting Dean, and the Reverend Wilton Duckett, Director of Student Work-Aid and Maintenance. All student and faculty organiza- tions have carried their responsibilities with gladness of spirit and talented hands. I am grateful to all members of our college family for a happy year of high adventure in all that makes life abundantly rich. T ean — Registrar — Zreasurer •  • MRS. RUTH F.

Student Association Officers The Student Association began the year with Lamartine Perry, President; Ria Stambough, Vice President; Suzanne Swaim, Secretary, and Treasurer Reid Mullins became Vice President when Ria transferred, and C. T. Fairbanks was appointed Secretary-Treasurer pro tern when Suzanne left in the winter quarter. In behalf of the officers of the Student Association, it has been a pleasure working ' with you and for you the past year. We feel that it has been a very successful one. TENE PERRY, President yonakian A s 0 ,.%- P lck The compiling of any yearbook has its headaches and moments of despair, its toil and frantic rushes to meet that dreaded deadline; but, let no one issue a complaint, for out of this comes a new experience of responsibility. Nor is it all labor, for a new feeling of companionship, the spontaneous laughter at our many mistakes, and the several pauses that refresh have helped to make this a most memorable yearbook. We, the Yonahian Staff of 1958, are greatly appreciative for being allowed to work on this annual. We would like to share a few of the high spots with you. The selling of advertisements is of primary concern. Take a look at them. Next we must get class pictures made, group pictures and faculty pictures. The piecing together of names and pictures makes quite an interesting jig- saw puzzle. Division pages, copy sheets, mounting boards, dummy, and catalogues: all become well worn with sketching and erasing before a final draft of the page is completed. A final appraisal and the sheets are sent to the publisher with a thankful prayer. Left to right: Kathryn Beaty, Diane Richardson, William Lepere, Dr. William Frye, Miss Mary Hoffman, C. T.

Zhe Ckok The Piedmont College Choir provides training for those students interested in music, presents special music for chapel and vesper services, and represents the college in programs given in schools of the area. Additional calls come for radio programs and appearances before other groups. High points of the year are the Christmas sacred music concert and the spring concert. We hope this year to add a spring recital, presenting outstanding music students. In the three previous years the choir, ensembles and soloists have performed a total of 287 different numbers on 251 occasions. This year ' s choir represents six states and the countries of Cuba, Jordan, Korea and Free China. Front row: George Holt, Editor; Richard Taylor, Jim Fields, C. T.

Zhe Zheta Zeta Phi The Theta Zeta Phi ' s were handicapped at the beginning of the year by the lack of veteran members from previous years. In the winter quarter, however, we organized and elected Edna Mooney, President; Emily West, Vice Presi- dent; Pat Hensley, Secretary; Hazel Mooney, Treasurer; Jean Tyler, Reporter; and Evelyn Bryant, Chaplain. Our society has worked and will continue to work on this campus for an increase in school spirit, and more social activities. It is our desire to maintain the athletic program we have started and to reinstate the literary aspect to its former prominence. The Theta Zeta Phi ' s welcome all girls, whether day students or boarding students. We have had a successful year and look forward to the renewing of old and the making of new friendships in the forthcoming year.

Our policy has been and will continue to be one of service. Service is whatever we as a group deem appropriate to all concerned. We hope our efforts have been spent where all will grow in sincerity, live in correctness, feel glad in honesty, feel righteous in purpose, and live in unity today and through the rest of our lives. And to you, Piedmont, we leave through the bond of remembrance the hopes that you will continue to give to others as much as you have given us.

Zhe Qamma Chi The Gamma Chi began as a literary society and still carries those words in its name. Through the years, the club has evolved into a social club which sponsors dances and parties with our Protropian Brothers throughout the year. Gamma Chi boasts purple and gray as its colors and the pansy as its flower. Make the most of the Day is the motto of the club. - Diane Richardson, President; and Carole Bridges, Secretary, headed the Gamma Chi in the year ' s activities of 1957-1958. Seated: Jim Fields. Standing: Ed Bebeau, Don Joiner, Jackie Rice, Kim Helseth, Tom Johnson, Lance Warner, Curtis Hughes, Bill Lepere, Sidney Roland, George Holt. Zhe Protropian Citerary Society Knowledge is power The Protropian Literary Society for men elected Leonard Warner, President; Sidney Roland, Vice President; Jack Rice, Treasurer; Kim Helseth, Secretary and Reporter; and Tom Johnson, Sergeant-at-Arms. The sponsors are Dr. Charles D. Clement and Dr. Billy E. Frye. The name, Protropian, is derived from a Greek word meaning, In the fore- front. Every Protropian is looking forward, and working toward the worth- while goals that our charter members created as an ideal. A Greater Piedmont and A Greater Protropian Society is the ultimate goal of every loyal Prot, and the laurels attained as a society should only inspire each member toward even greater achievements. The Prots have triumphed on the basketball court when pitted against our rival society, and have sponsored successful dances as well as work projects. We are looking forward to even more fruitful years. Royalty of 1957 Crowns Miss yonahian of 1958 Each year a campus beauty is selected by the student body as Miss Yonahian. The qualifica- tions are of the highest standards in personality, scholastic ability as well as grace and charm. We are proud to have this annual graced by Miss Yonahian, 1958, Barbara Coffee. i v T 1 Soft lights, smooth music and pageant gaiety ushered in the 1958 Valentine ' s Dance. The crowning of Shelby Parks and Charles Sander- lin by Diane Richardson and Harrison Libby, 1957 King and Queen, was the highlight of a splendid dance. Our thanks to the cooperating Recreation Committee, Gamma Chi and Pro- tropians. Valentine Regality Queen of the Sweethearts TM T ay The climax to the Freshman initiation week is the fast- dying, but traditional, Field Day. Some of the competition sports of the day are pictured on the preceding page. This page is dedicated to those bedraggled rats who, through sheer numbers, wore down their most beknighted opponents. The grueling rat trials they faced, the requested entertainment they provided, and the good-natured fun had by all are recorded as memories for the victorious and all who took part in the exercises. Oh, well ! ! ! Looks aren ' t everything. STOUTHEARTED MEN In D, (« UJ) (Including  he ). S. Navy Version; In F,(ct6 ; =E f $ ==? 4 ]n Q(d fog) S f OM THE MUS C THE NEW osc HARMS INCORPORATED Mgr.

There are many rules in the book to follow, but you must also subscribe to many well established rules of conduct that are not in the rule book. It is beyond my understanding how an individual or a team could have a feeling of accomplishment in winning an athletic contest by taking unfair advantage of the opposition. When a team comes on this campus, it comes as our guest, treat them as such. Play by the rules and play to win.

The snap of the ball and the crack of the bat attract a continual line of aspiring ball players who soon come to realize that the quickest way to victory is unflagging practice, a quintessence of teamwork, and determination. Perhaps we can all take their motto to heart and Play to Win. Cast Will and Zestament We, the 1958 class of Piedmont College, realizing that our remaining days are few, make this our last will and testament to distribute our talents, abilities, and possessions. The seniors of ' 58 leave their privileges and responsibilities to the class following. Having no material goods to distribute, the members bestow single gifts: DAVE ANDERSON leaves his nickname, Red, and apple-polishing ability to John Kuiken. THAD AYCOCK leaves his bow and arrow to Cupid. FANNIE BAKER leaves her optimism to Coach Cave. Perhaps next year the Lions will win. EDMOND BEBEAU leaves his desire for filthy lucre and his subversite activities to Dick Taylor. JOE CHIANG leaves his dancing ability to Curtis Hughes. ANN COKER leaves her laughter to teachers whose jokes fold. SLIM COLLINS leaves his many birthdays to Don Hawkins. CAROL DAMRON leaves her quietness t Beverly Turner. BEVERLEI DAVIS leaves her marriage status to all envious girls. CLINTON FAIRBANKS leaves with the question in his mind as to why he wasn ' t called Bus instead of Jeep. FIELDING FRY leaves his 7th grade to Miss Adams for future student teachers. RAY GREEN leaves his powerful intellect to Lou Wansley. KIM HELSETH leaves Velinda to Joe DiChara. GEORGE HOLT leaves Emily for Rena ' s old boyfriends. HARRISON LIBBY leaves his fireproof room to Campbell Hall. MACK MANLEY leaves his razor blades to Ed Sanderlin. FRED MARTIN leaves his car for the boys to go to the show in. ROD MOORE leaves his wife beating ways to Bill Lepere. DELORIS NEWBERRY leaves some of her charm to Mrs. Scott ' s 10 p.m. class. MARVIN PEAVY leaves Miss Adams to Dr. Blackstock. PAUL REED leaves his shoe taps to anyone who wants to pester the librarian. JACKIE RICE leaves a Boston ha-ha to Diane Richardson. JOE ROANE leaves an ample amount of the chief product of Tiger to the Babcock men. CHARLES SANDERLIN leaves nothing— he takes Diane with him. SHIRLEY SEIGLER leaves Tene to Colonel. May the Lord be merciful! TED SMITH leaves his last name to Dinorah. (Nobody can spell hers). M. J. STANSELL leaves his diving ability to the Piedmont swimming team. SERGEANT TOMLIN leaves his girdle to Lary Wood. BILL TURPIN and MARTA ARAGONES leave together. RACHEL WATKINS leaves her gum chewing ability to Edna Mooney. RENA WEST leaves, but she ' s coming back for George. ANN WHITE leaves her petite ways to Jean Tyler. POLLY WHITMIRE leaves with hopes that Lynn Snyder finds another cute girl to ride with him from Toccoa. Witnessed by: Zhe Prophecy Thanks to the wonderful new invention of Dr. Congdon, the 1968 class reunion of the class of 1958 was a huge success. While the members of this class were in far-flung reaches of the universe, Dr. Congdon ' s amazing Instant Materializcr Machine brought us all together once again at dear old Piedmont College. The first to arrive was JACKIE RICE, still an earthian and still from Boston, ha, ha!! Jackie told us that he had been spending his time trying to change his bachelor status. His present heart throb is a gorgeous three-eyed beauty from Venus. The honorable CHARLIE SANDERLIN next appeared on the scene. Charlie has been appointed governor of northern Pluto by the Supreme Earthian Council. Charles was more than eager to tell us of the new college he had founded on Pluto mainly for Plutonian young monsters. However, there are a few Yankees there, namely feminine. Next came PAUL REED in his spacemobile space library. He had just been delivering books on Neptunian literature to various outlying planete. Mrs. George Holt (RENA WEST) was next on the scene. Rena, trailed by their seven children, is yet dedicated to the education of youth. She is now teaching high school on outer Alphacenturiris. DAVE ANDERSON, now a resident of Uranaus, was al ready here on earth. He is still trying to get Nancy ' s parents to consent. In his spare time he is using his chemistry to try to change uranium dust into gold. No success yet. FANNIE BAKER flew in from the Korean National Planet of Saturn. She and Dr. Cho are practicing medicine on the two-headed people of Saturn. It takes two heads to answer her wit. Next came KIM HELSETH of the solar division of the Minneapolis Honeywell Co- operation. It will be done if the books don ' t get too heavy. DELORIS NEWBERRY (oh, oh) Mullins, traveled from far off Jupiter. She came by old fashioned spaceship, since she is afraid of the Materializing machine. She is now manager of Reid ' s Jupiter Home Craft Company. Next came Dr. of Music, CLINTON FAIRBANKS, world traveler. Dr. Fairbanks, now dedicated to the betterment of music throughout the universe, had made quite an accomplishment in new tonal combination. Thanks to his accomplishments, music will soon be as universal as atomic power. SLIM COLLINS is the best-known and best-loved space cabby in business. He transports people from astrenoid to astrenoid. Sort of reminiscent of his college days when he carried notables back and forth between campus and Atlanta airport in his sluggish green Buick. He and his wife winter on earth and summer on Mars. THAD AYCOCK is political manager of the Universe Republican Club. He is now engaged in defending the minority rights of purple-skinned Osmonians. EDWARD CARDINAL BEBEAU, a Prince of the Church, has been largely respon- sible for the liberalizing of the Church. With his red robes and rotund figure he cer- tainly added color to our reunion. Editor GEORGE HOLT of the Cosmic Flyer came with his wife. His outstanding editorials on The Importance of Element X in Our Universe have won him fame. DON JOINER is doing research into Uranus antiquities. Can you imagine him around musty old places? His accomplice in the dirty work is FIELDING FRYE who classifies everything Don digs up. MARVIN PEAVY is enjoying the dark side of the moon. Always was one to go to bed early. He told us that he wouldn ' t allow Sue to have TV. JOE ROANE is mayor of New Clayton, Planet Mars. His wife leads the local Women ' s Club. M. J. STANSELL is chief of Interplanetary Security. He looked impressive in all his gold braid. SHIRLEY SEIGLER PERRY gave up teaching, and remains by the side of Tene. It is enough for her, she says, to be the wife of the wealthiest man in the universe. While scattered over the whole universe we still think of a small patch of Terra Firma in Georgia where, ten years ago, we spent happy moments in caref ree, youthful pleasures. ■1 Player piano : ?
