These fourteen years have re- n ill fleeted tremendous progress in all phases of campus life. Now the name Itawamba Junior College is being brought to state- wide attention through its educational progress, its expansion of physical plant, its sports activities, and its seeking student body. It is the task of the MIRROR to keep pace with the annual growth of the college ' s tree of knowledge, recording each new branch as it sprouts and enlarges. Within these pages are recorded the scho- lastic pursuits, activities, organizations — newborn and time hon- ored. Here is a year in the life and growth of Itawamba Junior College. mimmmismiimmmssBsmsm7 :tUaJ «AtE L£U. ' u Contents F a c u 1 t y and Some teachers afford new cars !

Mrs. Mayhall has been with the college since its establishment in 1948. Mr. Thrash came to Itawamba Junior Col- lege in 1953. There have been many times when we have needed help and guidance, and during these times we found we could always depend on Mrs. Mayhall and Mr. Thrash. They have always given us wise counsel and the answers to our questions. They have taught us good citizenship, respect, and hon- or. To you, Mrs. Mayhall and Mr. Thrash, we, the 1962 annual staff, dedicate the MIRROR in return for the priceless gifts of knowledge and the in- spiration you have bestowed upon us. We deeply express our gratitude for the guidance and sup- port you both have so unselfishly given us. 1 o n I :s jfm mT ! mi l Mf mm wmmmwm!fmmm Wk I i We on the yearbook staff hope that the 1962 MIRROR will help you relive your junior college days. We have attempted to reflect the growth of Itawamba Junior Col- lege, as well as the best and most outstand- ing memories of the 1961-62 school year. We would like to express our appreciation to our advisor for her capable assistance and to each faculty member and each stu- dent for their cooperation. We hope that we have succeeded in our en- deavor to present a good annual to you. With the sincere wish that each of you will find among these pages something you will remember for a long time, we present to you the 1962 MIRROR.

In addition to increases in class numbers there has been evidence of. growth in campus organizations. When the college was organized in 1948, the student body was- divided into two groups: The Pioneers and Le Cercle Sans Souci. Year by year the student body ' s needs have merited the formation of additional organizations. Today the organized groups number sixteen: two honorary fraterni- ties, ten vocation-related clubs, and four church-related groups.

Athletics The athletic program has been a vital part of Itawamba Junior College since its establishment. In the early life of the college the program in- cluded football, girls ' and boys ' basketball, and baseball. A junior college conference ruling was responsible for girls ' basketball being dis- continued in 1954. The progress and achievements of this year ' s football and basketball teams will be found on succeeding pages. The MIRROR was well on its way before the baseball season really be- gan, but it is believed that this team, too, will represent the school well. The varsity teams are not the only hard work- ers in the program. The Cheerleaders have be- come one of IJC ' s biggest boosters of school spirit. They are a hard-working team united to spur the Indians on. This year they led the cheering at all but one football game, and home basketball games found the Cheerleaders on the sidelines boosting the team. 76.

INDIANS 70 MANTACHIE The Indians started the season off in a big way by massacring Mantachie 70-0. The ball game was clearly the Indians from the start as they piled up a 31-0 half-time lead. Mantachie, having a relatively inexperienced club, could not contain the high-scoring Indians. The second and third teams were used by both clubs in the second half, but to no avail as Itawamba piled on 49 more points. INDIANS 14 BALDWYN 12 The Indians, third-ranked in the pre-season polls, triggered their Tombigbee Conference campaign off to a rollicking start with a 14-12 .Ictcry over first-ranked Baldwyn. Baldwyn jumped into an early 12-0 lead, but the Indians cut it by half- time to 12-7. The difference in the game was a 91 yard touchdown punt return in the fourth quarter from which Baldwyn never recovered. ALL-CONFERENCE Davis, Sheffield, Brown, Stubblefield Stubblefield — Conference ' s Most Valuable Player 150 ttiinyaftfirutt ' irtifff.intiitaa imoitKMtniMUwiMafaaamwiminrgiHCTM INDIANS 34 OKOLONA 14 Itawamba ' s Indians, liking the taste of victory, rolled over Okolona 34-14. There was no stop- ping the Indians as they scored on the first series of downs. The first half ended with Itawamba lead- ing 20-7. Keeping the same pace in the second half, the Indians tallied 14 more points with the final score reading Itawamba-34, Okolona-14. This victory put the high-scoring Indians in the con- ference lead — a lead they never relinquished. MAJOR BOWEN End LARRY BROWN Center INDIANS 47 KOSSUTH 13 This game was possibly the Indians greatest team effort as the Indians rolled up a 47-0 half-time lead. Kossuth was unbeaten previous to the game and was considered a conference contender. The game was only two minutes old before Itawam- ba had a 14-0 lead. By the end of the first quarter the score had mushroomed into the thirties. The first team did not play in the second half as the second and third teams gained experience. The final score read Indians-47, Kossuth-13. FRANKIE CRITZ Fullback JOE JOHNSON Tackle Critz scores first touchdown against Calhoun City. ' ' f mm mmimmmimmmmxmmmimmmmmmminmimismim tstaammmiMma INDIANS 47 SHANNON 27 Still dreaming of its last victory, the Indians almost met disaster at the hands of Shannon. The half-time score was 28-21 with Itawamba on top. The defense completely fell through until the fourth quarter, but the offensive team never let up as it rolled up another 47 point total. Overconfi- dence and a stubborn Shannon eleven hurt the team most, but the weight of numbers prevailed as the final score stood: Itawamba-47, Shannon-27. GARY GRAY Halfback JERRY STUBBFIELD Quarterback WILLIAM MARTIN End WILLIAM SHEFFIELD Tackle CARL BROWN Tackle PAT DAVIS Halfback INDIANS 14 CALHOUN CITY Itawamba continued its winning ways by beat- ing Calhoun City by the score of 14-0. The only scoring in the game was in the first half as the Indians scored on an extended drive and then tallied after recov-ering a fumble. The rest of the game was one of defense. This time the Indian de- fense was magnificent, for the Wildcats never mounted a scoring threat. This was the sixth victory without a defeat for the mighty Indians.

Coach Spigner played more than 30 men in the fracas, giving members of the second and third strings game experience. There was never any doubt about the result of the game, as the Indians rolled up a 28-0 half-time score. With the B- team playing the second half the starters rested for the last stretch of the Tombigbee Conference race. INDIANS 42 BOONVILLE Boonville, trying to upset the unbeaten Indians, fell by the score of 42-0. The first half was marked by fumbles in which the mighty Indians could score only 7 points. The second half was a dif- ferent story as Itawamba tallied 35 points. This eighth straight victory set the stage for the show- down battle with Ripley for the Tombigbee Con- ference Crown. Davis (14) goes for yardage against Boonville CHARLES RICHARDSON Center DEAN NORMAN End DAN STEELE Tackle DON CONWILL Guard INDIANS 14 RIPLEY 13 The Itawamba Indians captured their first-ever Tombigbee Conference Championship with a thrilling 14-13 triumph over second-ranked South Tippah. Ripley sco ed the first time it got the ball, but Itawamba tied the score at 7-7 by halftime. After the half the Indians tallied again to take a 14-7 lead. Ripley then scored a touchdown, but a host of Indian tacklers stopped the extra-point try for the one-point victory. INDIANS 40 VARDAMAN 13 The Indians finished their regular season unde- feated with a 40-13 victory over Vardaman. Only 45. seconds had passed before the Indians had 7 points, and by half-time the score stood at 26-7. The final score of 40-13 brought to a close the most successful regular season ever had at Itawamba High School. After the game the players voted to accept a bowl invitation. This was the first time any Indian team had ever been honored by a bowl invitation. Sheffield (74), Brown (76), Holcomb (80), Gregory (56), and Brown (52), tackle Vardaman back Stubblefield (12) rolls for yardage against Benoit LION ' S SIGHT BOWL INDIANS 27 BENOIT 39 The Indians because of their colorful play and string of ten victories were invited to the Lion ' s Sight Bowl with Benoit, a winner of its last 21 games. This was possibly the highest honor be- stowed on Itawamba ' s magnificent high school team. Although the Indians lost by the score of 27-39, the game, played on a muddy field which hurt the Indians ' passing offense, was not decided until the last two minutes. This brought to a close Itawamba ' s football season. .A. £a BARRY HOLCOMB End 154 ROY GREGORY Tackle mmsimmmmimxmimsiimBs msttmimm Basketball STANDING: Christian, Smith, Wilson, Gillentine, Gray, Bishop, Logan, Stubblefield, Martin, and Bishop.
