Howard Payne's biology faculty in 1968. He later was named academic dean and, then, vice president for academic affairs. He has combined leadership for the uni- lence,yChristian living, and the traditional spirit of friendship. He has given continual support to the student publications, and we especially appreciate his help with the 1978 conven- tion of the Texas Intercollegiate Press Association, an event that brought state- wide recognition to Howard Payne. A Cycle Begins. As we formulate an outlook on life and a who share our views and goals. Our 12 Initiation Activities- OHLY «VI UORBWIIKS tm : f Switch-out Day—Fun? Chapel Provides Entertainment and Inspiration 23 Revival Week Provides Go Greek 26 Campus Life . . . What is it about Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays that causes people to gather around the steps ot Mims in one big happy throng? It is chapel, of course. This day is looked forward to by every student, not only because they get together to talk with their friends, but because no one is quite sure what is going to happen that day at chapel. If one were to walk around and lis- ten to bits of conversation, he might hear one group talking about the movie showing at the cinema, or another group talking about a test they had that day, or maybe some girls talking about some cute guy standing near by. No matter how fre- quently they see each other, there's always something new to say. Believe it or not, chapel day is a day that is usually looked forward to. 1.

Women’s Varsity Volleyball Spiking Jackets Women’s Varsity Basketball HP's Lady Jacket basketball, now four training years during the 78-79 season. Up from a previous team of seven, the Lady Jackets were eleven strong. Members of the team were Kim Capps, Duncanville sophomore; Diane Huber, Lul- ing sophomore; Jill Roach, Zephyr sopho- more by way of Connecticut; and Kathy Bullock, junior transfer from McClennan County Junior College. These four women played on last year’s team. Two transfers from Tarleton State were sophomores Mary Mackey, who played basketball for Tarleton last year, and Patsy Henson. Freshmen who joined the team were Sheila Atkins, Austin; Paula Jacks, tallest on the team at 5'10 , from Arnett, Okla., Jan Buckner, Bridgeport; and Pattie Jo Knaggs. Here are some highlights of the Lady Jacket year. The Lady Jackets won their first game of of play December 14 over St. Mary's Uni- versity in San Antonio, 47-46. The game was a very tight contest, with the biggest lead for either team five points. The Lady Jackets managed to build up a three-point lead at the end of the game on pressure free throws by Mary Mackey and Sheila Atkins. The Howard Payne Lady Jackets basket- ball team turned a five-point deficit into a 65-43 win over Cisco Junior College Janu- ary 18 in Yellow Jacket gym, avenging an earlier 78-52 loss in Cisco. The taller Cisco players could not keep up with the Lady Jackets in the second half as they churned out 43 points and played superb defense. This was the second straight win for the Lady Jackets, who had defeated St. Mary's. Coach Phil Sirois was pleased with his player's hustle. We stayed with them the is 5'10 , and they must have four players over six feet tall. I told them at halftime that we did to St. Mary’s, and they did. We broke their press, took it down and scored, and didn't let up, even after we got so far behind.” Cisco’s coach was none too pleased with the officiating or the game itself as he continually screamed at his players and the officials until he finally got a technical foul in the closing seconds. Free throws were the difference for the of the basketball season, demolishing St. Mary's University 58-41 February 1 in the Bullock, Mary Mackey. Yellow Jacket Gym. The visiting Rattlers had a hard time with V Jackets Have Successful Year but A lowlight was the 69-59 loss to ACU in Abilene. An ice storm prevented a large HP crowd from turning out and neutralizing the Wildcats' big home court advantage. The Jackets took two games each from Texas A l, Angelo State, Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin. None of these were routine, as HP barely escaped in double overtime in January at Texas A l, and beat SFA 63-62 in overtime. The lowest points ever held by an LSC opponent were recorded Jan. 29 against ACU as the Jackets won 64-45, allowing the Wildcats only 11 second half points. In the LSC tournament, the Jackets rou- tinely handled Angelo State 77-61 in the first-round. against its old nemesis, East Texas.
