Atlantic Christian College - Pine Knot Yearbook (Wilson, NC)

Text from Pages 1 - 168 of the 1955 volume:

• • is published annually by the students PINE KNOT of Atlantic Christian College, Wilson, North Carolina. Here in word and pic- ture is life at our college. The staff has endeavored to record more than just faces and scenes around campus. It has attempted to capture and mir- ror the vibrant spirit and warm fellowship that is A. C. Here are memo- ries of classes, organizations, athletics and “just fun,” in the hope that they will serve as a commemoration in the future of time gone by in the past. atlantic Christian college wilson, n. c. printed by edwards and broughton co., raleigh, n. c. ► —in . m k W Wi, mi CONTENTS PINE KNOT the bull dog dedication board of trustees the president administration faculty organizations students sports activities advertisements i editor-in-chief mary hadge art editor jo ann moore student photographer barry lamm photography editor evelyn yionoulis literary editor jeanette sears student editor cynthia bradley sports editor mamie davis business manager mollie hester involving an Atlan Christian team. In fact, ever wondered how we the word Bulldog has become synonyja is witlwi C. Have you acquired this nickname? Before 1928 students yelled '‘Little Christians” whenever they wanted a score. But then a man named Marc Anthony took over the coaching of the Christians for two years. And in honor of Mr. Anthony, a former football star with the University of Georgia Bulldogs, the name Bulldogs was attached to the athletic teams in place of Little Christians 11 • g. -;.v:.:«A ' ■ '■ - Y-'l , 1 =' .£-■1 If 38®f8Sgg Since that year the name Bulldogs has be- come a traditional symbol here at A. C. It can be heard wherever the teams are playing . . . in the gym ... on the baseball diamond ... on the tennis court . . . always an encouraging yell boy$ j)laying the game. Yet the Bulldog as wandered off the athletic eld into the lives of the students. For although he is principally an athletic figure, he has be- come a symbol, too, of the Atlantic Christian fi ; that spirit which makes us a part of ... a boy wandering across campus in arm ... a girl and boy chatting office . . . the “stand-ups” in the X dining hall . the sleepy eyes in 8:00 classes . . . the bridge playing after light bell . . . the couples in the library . . . the entire spirit of a friendly and cooperative campus. Many factors are intangible. are important to a A college, like an college, some are individual, must tangible and some grow and expand spiritually, physically, intellectually, and culturally. Progress then be- comes the keynote to a successful existence. The only alternative is to regress, to stagnate, to lose sight of the greater fields of endeavor and accomplishment. The students, the teachers, the friends and alumni of A. C. are eager to see our college emerge into a new era of progress. It is the earnest hope of all that such progress, conceived in a spirit of loyalty to our traditions and co-operation for our future, will create a greater inspira- tion to our students, new beauty to our campus, and a wider sphere of influence for the Christian spirit that A. C. holds forth. The standing of a college in the educational world is important. Progress in A. C.’s academic program must go on. Through the years many have labored long and patiently to raise the standard of instruc- tion, to build the classrooms, to provide a program of vocational guidance that would enable A. C. graduates to meet the demands of professional preparation and at the same time to enrich the life of each student. But no matter how large a college grows, how lofty its buildi ngs, how high its certifications, it offers less than nothing if it does not progress in the sphere of human relationships. A. C. offers an environment for the moral development and spiritual advancement of the individual. In the future our college must expand this environment to include an understanding of the needs of all men of all creeds. Here where the ivy twines over old Kinsey, where the great oaks stand strong and steadfast, we must preserve the heritage of our past, meet the needs of the present, and prepare for the future. In order ' .v •■'♦V '' '4 ' • • ■ that it may be a future of greatness for A. C., we hereby dedicate the 1955 Pine Knot to an idea and an ideal—to Progress.

White the president of Atlantic Christian College The Student Body: Wilson, N. C. “We men of earth have here the stuff of paradise,” remarked a great American writer. We need no other materials than what are right here to “build the stairs into the unfulfilled.” Is this not the task of our years on the campus—building stairs into the unful- filled? These wonderful years at Alantic Christian, glorious in themselves, are but the workshop in which we construct the stairs into the unfulfilled. The enchantment of a great vision and lofty ambition in the days of our youth become the ashes of futility in our maturity unless we build well. Worthy ambition, adequate preparation, and sincere commitment to life will bring the unfulfilled to significant fulfillment. I wish you Godspeed in this great task. 8 The key to Dr. White’s personality and success is revealed in these words of his inaugural address given in April, 1954. “There are times when a man is allowed to be a symbol of something greater than himself. He may be an instrument, a symbol, or a servant, pos- sibly a combination .of all three.” In the hours that he has given of himself, of his time, and of his devotion, Dr. White has already become more than an administrator, more than an educator. As the president of Atlantic Christian College, he is a symbol of the college—of its past tradition of service and fellowship, of its ideals, and its future aspirations. Our president has faith and “hope to dream and will to do”—qualities which will make our col- lege that “something greater.” Into Dr. White’s hands we commit the future of Atlantic Christian College. May it be a future strong with accom- plishments, built on a foundation of his love and service. j.; ADMINISTRATION MILTON L. ADAMS Business Manager—Athletic Director 11 OFFICE STAFF MRS.

The student government of Atlantic Christian College is known as the Student Co-operative Association of which all students and faculty are members. The Executive Board, com- posed of students and faculty selected by the student body together with several ex officio members, handles the affairs of the association. It has long been the pride of the A. C. college family that this student- faculty government has successfully co-operated in maintaining the aca- demic, cultural, and religious levels upon which our college was founded. Shown below are the members of the Executive Board: Miss Sarah Bain Ward, Kenneth Lamm, Beverly Cousins, James Hemby, Suzanne Gill, Elena Lawler, Dr. James Moudy, Carl Wheeler, Evelyn Yionoulis, Eddie Johnson, Kathryn Cottle, LeRoy Batts, Darrell Huffman, Mr. Edward Rider, Mr. George Swain, Mr. Allan Sharp.

Each student upon matriculation at A.C. automatically becomes a member of this association. For those students who desire to actively participate in S.C.A. activities, an im- pressive dedication ceremony is held at which time they may dedicate their services. This year there are 75 stu- dents holding active membership cards. Among the many special events sponsored by the S.C.A. this year were Religious Emphasis Week, Youth Week Program, World University Service Fund Drive, and Pre- Easter Week services. The S.C.A. also sent representa- atives to the United Nations Seminar held in New York City and to the National Assembly of YMCA’s and YWCA’s held at Lawrence, Kansas. Whether holding vesper serv- ices, discussion groups, fun nights, or sponsoring special events, the S.C.A. strives to provide a center for religious life and to promote Christian fellowship among the A.C. college family. Every year at Atlantic Christian College one week is devoted with special emphasis on students’ growth in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man. This is Religious Emphasis Week. This year the Reverend Beverly Asbury from the Zebulon Baptist Church was the main chapel speaker on the week’s theme “Man’s Search for Himself.” Every evening the students had the privilege of at- tending discussion groups led by the visiting members of the REW team. Rev. Asbury led a discussion on “The Christian and Public Opinion”; Anne Queen on “How Students May Act Effectively in Their College Communities”; A1 Payne on “What About Miracles”; and Harry Smith led a discussion on “Campus Gods on Trial.” Religious Emphasis Week was an inspiration to the students on A. C.’s campus, and was concluded with an impressive communion and consecration service. ELIGIOUS EMPHASIS WEE iMi The memtjers of the Golden Knot Honor Society are chosen scholarship, character, leadership, and service. A student must Ihave attended Atlantic Christian College at least three semesters an|l have an average of 2.00 to be eligible for mem- bership. An impressive tapping ceremony is held in the spring at which time new members are welcomed into the society.

We have dogged your footsteps in order to obtain the correct information about your organizational activities; we have followed in your shadows in order to capture on film your most formal and casual moments. We have lost sleep and weight, neglected friends and studies in order to retire to the art department or staff chamber in upstairs Kinsey in consultation con- cerning layouts, photography, copy material; we have spent hectic days chasing down prospective advertisers, collecting money, balancing the budget —all in the hope of meeting a deadline and giving to the student body a book worthy of A.C. The work has been long and exacting, demanding and rewarding, full of fun and struggle. Yet we hope that you will find in the 1955 Pine Knot a con- crete example of our labors in your behalf and a source of continued pleasure in your later years away from campus life. ■cited: Mollie Hester; Mary Hadge; Cynthia Bradley; Jo Ann Moore. anding: Charles Waller; Mamie Davis; Kenneth Rouse; Shirley Parker- elyn Yionoulis. 3t pictured: Dale Gainey; LeRoy Holley; Barry Lamm; Jeanette Sears.

The first semes- ter issues were dedicated to the entering freshmen, the Pine Knot Queen, Mollie Hester, and more recently, the basketball team. Perhaps the most im- portant dedication was to the staff itself on the 25th anni- versary of the Collegiate. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES The first party of the staff was held at the home of Mrs. Eagles, editorial advisor, who serv'ed the members at a dinner meet- ing. At Christmas, the staff met at Parker’s for a supper meeting. At this time, Mrs. Eagles pre- sented gifts to the members. Expanded interest shown in re- cent years in our Music De- partment, both as a cultural instrument for college and com- munity and as an educational medium for Teacher training, is indicated on these two pages. The music faculty is versatile .and positive in the training of ASHTON WIGGS Ashton Wiggs, a senior, is a business major and manages the business affairs of the Collegiate. Ashton is active in the Veterans’ Club and Business Club. He is from Pine Level and is a mem- ber of Phi Kappa Alpha fratern- ity._______:---- Whether carefully despensing the fund for student activities or handling serious disciplinary problems, our Student-faculty government is always demo- cratic and effective.

The Atlantic Christian College Band continues to flourish under the leadership of Dr. Millard Burt. Additions have been made since the band has been under his baton. During his first year on campus he stirred a spark of enthusiasm within the students and developed a band. Now the band is growing. Its numbers have increased; more instruments have been acquired; parade flags have been provided; eight new uniforms and a dir urn major suit have been given by the alumni; and an assistant band ' director was added to the staff. The first appearance of the Marching Band was made on November 19 in the Homecoming Parade when fifty bandsmen, clothed in uniforms of gray and blue, proudly marched down Nash Street. “Jingle Bells,” “Deck the Halls,” and “Joy to the World” rang out as the A. C. Band led the annual Wilson Christmas Parade. During the college year the band has given concerts and made numerous appearances before the students and general public.

The team tangled with such opponents as the Uni- versity of North Carolina Freshmen, Chowan, Edwards Military Institute, and East Carolina Freshmen. Ronald Baker and Nicky Lazzo served as co-captains of the team, and Doug Gregg was high scorer for the “Bull Pups.” Pictured above are: First row: Nicky Lazzo; Raeford Fulghum; Bill Price; Joe Bennett, Manager. Second row: Larry Lassiter; Pete Tyson; Jimmy Wil- liams; Ronald Baker; Kenneth Edwards. Third row: Kenneth Fulghum; Jack Harris; Doug Gregg; Earl Hughes; Coach Jim Hebbe. m High Scorer Doug Gregg talks things over with Bill Price, Ronald Baker, and Jack Harris. 107 Co-Captains Ronald Per- cise and Jerry Williams. At the start of the 1954-55 basketball season the cry was “Take the North State Tournament and then on to Kansas City.” As the season rolled on the Bulldogs built up momentum and made this cry a reality. Racking up 16 conference wins against 3 losses, the Bulldogs came in second to Lenoir Rhyne in conference standings and came out on top by winning over Lenoir Rhyne in the finals. The Bulldogs went on to again win over East Carolina and Lenoir Rhyne to become the Champions of District 26 gaining the opportunity of representing North and South Carolina in the NAIA Tournament in Kansas City. In Kansas City the McComasmen downed the powerful Evansville team in their first game, losing in the second to Arkansas Tech. Their inspiring victories in Lexington and Kansas City prove the Bulldog mentors to be a wonderful crop of men. Their accomplishments have given their fellow stu- dents and Wilsonians a wonderful year in sports history. We’re mighty proud of the Atlantic Christian College Bulldogs and will greatly miss Seniors Jim Peebles and Ronald Percise. Jerry Williams Forward Junior John Mar ley Center Sophomore A.C.C.

Paced by Billy Widgeon and John Marley, they won over Catawba in the first game 83 to 62. Against High Point in the second round, McComas and his men came out on top 82 to 69 after a hard fought first half. Saturday night saw Atlantic Christian trounce Lenoir Rhyne 108 to 85 to claim the title of North 'State Conference Champions. The Bulldogs also set a new tournament scoring record in that game with their 108 points and estab- lished a new North State Conference free throw record by sinking 54 of 60 chances against the Bears. Other honors gained at the tournament were: Billy Widgeon, sophomore guard from Newport, was named “Most Valuable Player” in the tournament, Widgeon and John Marley were placed on the fiist All-Tournament team, Jerry Williams on the second team, and Kim Buchanan and Ronald Percise received honorable mention. Thus goes the story of the North State Tournament with the A. C. Bulldogs as the star players. A. C. C. HIGH POINT A. C.

The team was welcomed on its return from the tournament by a large crowd of students and citizens and was presented a blue and white wreath of flowers in the shape of a horseshoe. Above are pictured members of the team, Coach Mc- Comas with the Championship trophy, and “Rooster” Davis holding the wreath. Below are pictured: Coach McComas as he receives his trophy; “the cutting of the basket,” a familiar sight as the Bulldogs marched on to Kansas City; and Billy Widgeon as he receives his “Most Valuable Player” trophy.

C. C. games in the NAIA Tournament. Also Joe Stewart of Kansas City did a splendid job as broadcaster of the games making the “radio-listening” folks in Wilson feel he should have been an A. C. alumnus. George Mikan, “Mr. Basketball” himself, on Monday night before the Evansville game gave the Bulldogs a pep talk. The next day the Bulldogs won over Evans- ville, one of the top-ranking teams in the 32-field tourney, by a score of 95 to 88. In the next game the Bulldogs were eliminated by the Wonder Boys of Arkansas Tech 93 to 74. We are proud of the outstanding record the Bulldogs have made in this 1954-55 basketball season. They have done a wonderful job in a wonderful way for the college and city. We are proud too of the many student, faculty, and citizen fans who gave their good wishes, luck, and support to the team.

The winning float sponsored by the Women’s Athletic Association. Homecoming Ball with music furn- ished by the college band, the Dreamers. fttjMMnSg .... L1UUI The campus of Atlantic Christian Col- lege was filled with the hustle and bustle of students and alumni the weekend of November 19, 1954. The Homecoming festivities got underway with a parade on Friday afternoon when the college band, several visting bands, and eleven floats formed the procession marching down Nash Street. A basketball game with the Lynchburg Hornets (which we won!) was played Friday night with the Home- coming Queen crowned at half-time. On Saturday a College Program in Howard Chapel was presented to the visit- ing alumni which was followed by a luncheon in the Bert Hardy Dining Hall. A business session of the alumni and a tour of the campus was held in the after- noon. The annual Homecoming Ball held Saturday night climaxed the day’s activ- ities. Homecoming was concluded by church services at the First Christian Church on Sunday morning. Homecoming Queen, Miss Judy Lane Mollie Hester Sponsored by Pine Knot Each year the staff of the Pine Knot sponsors a contest to select a Pine Knot QUEEN. Judges of the contest this year were Mayor John Wilson, City Manager Talmadge Green, and Former Mayor Little- john Faulkner, all of Wilson. These judges selected Miss Mollie Hester, a Senior from Greenville, to reign as Pine Knot QUEEN. Miss Hester was crowned queen at the annual Atlantic Christian College Chrismas Dance. Her Attendant was Mrs. Annie Morris Kennedy, a Sophomore from Goldsboro.

C. campus. Much work and time has been expended by them toward the publish- ing of this year’s Pine Knot. As our meditation continues we resolve upon the following bequests: 1. To Barry Lamm our photographer, who has tramped the A. C. campus in the hope of snapping outstanding shots of students and their activities, we leave a new pair of legs, a larger developing room, and forty-six hours in the day. 2. To Mr. Arnold our editorial advisor, we leave four boxes of cigars which now that the Pine Knot has been pub- lished he will be able to smoke. It seems that prior to publication he was forever holding a cigar in his hand so as to leave his mouth free for answering Pine Knot questions. 3. To Dr. Hartsock our business ad- MEDITATIONS visor, we wish to leave six cartons of cigarettes. (This number of smoking matter being larger than Arnold’s due to the fact that cigarettes are smaller than cigars, and we want to treat them both fairly.) May she smoke each one to the tune of “Money Is the Root of All Evil.” Now that we have supplied our advisors with refreshment, we leave them the hope of finding a quiet and peaceful hiding place where no editor or business manager can find them. 4. To Major Smith and Joseph Phelps of Edwards and Broughton, pur printers, we leave a deadline (in return for the one that we didn’t meet) with a leeway of two years. 5. To the editorial staff we leave in hand pen and paper. What they do with them is their own business. 6. To the business staff we leave a new pair of shoes, a car, and a box of counterfeit money. 7. To next year’s editor and business manager we leave a gun so they might shoot themselves before the misery starts. 8. To the many students and faculty members who have co-operated so wonderfully we leave our sincere thanks. (We’ve spent all our money on the above.) 9. And to Atlantic Christian College we leave this, the - 1955 Pine Knot, in the hope that it will be a credit to you. I I LoXmu Russell Arnold Editorial Advisor Dr. Mildred E.
