Autumn winter into summer, summer into fail So rolls the changing year,- a; Motion so swift., wt LINCOLN UNIVERSITY Pennsylvania THE LION • 1967 3 . .7 dedicate the 1967 Lion to our parents. It is in A� the remembrance oTtheir sacrifice, love and in this yearbook, and in ending Mnav bear the weight of history as well as they. The Lion Stafl, - I m 4 • $ h. alfred farrell II Senior Class - 1967 Advisor I give to the graduating class of 1967 this timely quote as my farewell mes- sage. Better that we should err in action than wholly refuse to perform. The storm is so much better than the calm, as it de- clares the presence of a living principle. Stagnation is some- thing worse than death. It is corruption also. William Gilmore Simms May this small piece of wisdom serve you well. 6 H. Alfred Farrell The more we live, more brief appear Our life's succeeding stages. . .. A MESSAGE TO OUR READERS These college years in times to come will seem even more like a single season; the memories of these days, like fallen leaves. We hope this gathering of those lost friends and events will at least ease time’s onslaught and offer a moment of rest and pleasure. The Lion Staff 7 administration and Mitwwiuigy faculty president marvin wachman Lincoln Jlnhiersttg LINCOLN UNIVCRSITV AC N� YLVANIA I93IS orncc or tm C iOC t June, 1967 TO THE CLASS OF 1967 Your year at Lincoln were a significant as years can be. The great March on Washington of August, 1963 had just taken place when most of you enrolled. Shortly after you registered and began classes, the Presi- dent of the United States was assassinated. During your first year at Lincoln a great breakthrough in civil rights legislation occurred, and in your second year that legislation was strengthened. It was during your tenure at Lincoln that the war in Viet Nam was heightened in its intensity and in its call upon the youth of the nation. Out- standing developments took place in many African nations. And the cries of Student Power and Black Power were heard more frequently on the campus of Lincoln and across the country. Finally, within a few hours after your graduation, war broke out in the Near East, but thankfully cease-fire ar- rangements were made before this volume went to press. None of us could fail to think and grow as a result of these events and developments. Hopefully, the strengthening of the offerings of the Univer- sity and the opportunity for constant discussion and questioning on the campus contributed to your growth. In the last issue of the Lincolnian of this past year, the editor commented that Lincoln University's students, professors, and publications are free to pursue the elusive truth, and that the University offers a milieu in which people can find themselves and define their roles in society. May this always be the case. Good luck as you continue to seek answers to the large personal and public problems of our time! Faithfully yours, 10 Marvin Wachman President frank j. dowd Vice -President In greeting the Class of 1967 let me say that I hope you have enjoyed your years at Lincoln as much as I have. Ours have been exciting years for Lincoln, years of growth and ferment. Whether the experience has been worth-while is now up to you as you move on to new challenges and responsibilities. I am confident that you will take your place with other Lincoln men and women in leading the way toward a better tomorrow. ' J austin h. scott Vice-President for Business and Finance Members of the Class of 1967: In your four years here you have been a witness to or part of a knowledge explosion , a population explosion , a social revolu- tion , an undeclared war and a war on poverty. It is our hope that you have been undergirded by your learning ex- periences here and in the world so that you may continue toward your goal and make Alma Mater proud of you. It is my hope that you will be spiritually led in the future by those words of St. Paul, Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, what- ever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gra- cious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 12 Leroy D.

Those that came and left did not depart without enriching the lives and memories of those that remained. The spirit of ’67 was very contagious--once a member of ’67, always a member of ’67.

It was their retreat from prep rallies, upper classm For several weeks previous to Wood Night , the tension had been building Despite the numerous rough prep rallies , the class of 1967 resisted all pres sures to conform. They trod the grass, buried their green beanies, consist- ently stormed and incapacitated Vets' Village, and rapped to the girls of the upperclassmen in their dog letters. Thus they earned the name Arrogant '67. The twenty most wanted prep list came out and '67 came geared like the Packers to the Wood Night show. An hour and twenty thousand blows later the freshmen staggered up to the traditional Wood Night pile to celebrate with gusto, their coming of age. 92 Wood Night meant Homec om ing' ’ - - the games, the parade, the fraternity sings and above all... the debs While the Homecoming Dance may have been the biggest dance on campus, the happenings were after the dance-- . down in the Vill Corning to Lincoln meant acquiring a whole new vocabulary. Words and meanings that Webster’s never had, became familiar to all Lincolnites--beaugarde, nickel, washout, punchout, locked jaws, all-night stand, lighthouse, half a girl of taste, bat and hog. Particularly Lincoln in flavor was the fellows' system of rating girls on physical appearance. Based on the then current grading system, an ace or 1 was an extremely good looking girl, a deuce or 2--good looking but... , a trey --average and rarely a four, but almost always a five or nickel (or more. )--a defi- nite bat ( an ugly girl). Uniquely, no words were said. The ob- serving fellow just dropped the appropriate amount of change onto the floor. The reputation of the Lincoln man as one with the ladies and a hard partyer hitch-hiked down many a highway as Lincolnites piked down in a run to Cheyney, Morgan, Howard, Hampton and other schools. Along with this came Lincoln's reputation for academic excellence and high and tough standards. The Lincoln man was heavy and the word was... NOMICf 99 m Assemblies as well as s were a routine part o: and rabble There was always the tra- dition of the Lincoln man as rough and ready” and sports helped make and keep him that way. Every Lincolnite has his old school and surely the old school in sports will never die—from the old, old Lincoln-Howard football classics to this year’s Penn Relay winners. The class of 1967 is in the unique position of being one of several classes to pass through Lincoln during her transition years, seeing both some of the old school and the beginnings of the larger, greater and newel Lincoln University. They are proud to be a part of the sacrifice of the past and they are graciously thankful for the new and comfortable. Lest anyone for- get, they remember the work and the personal losses made to make Lincoln what it is today. The class of ’67 may be the last to remember dining in the old refectory, forming long lines all year round to wait for meals. Some of the best and oldest rabble came from here-- as well as the beaugarde. Discomforts were many, but so were the good times too. And the new There was not one day that something was either being erected or disassembled. The Lincoln community took the noise, dirt and mud in stride, mindful that these are some of the costs of progress. No man is without his temper, no season with- out its storms and no school without its troubles. Lincoln had its Douglasses and John Browns too. These troubles and confrontations often pre- ceded and initiated some new building or pro- gram. '67 played a part in in precipitating many of the new things at Lincoln. junior class 116 sophomore class 117 alpha kappa alpha 118 sphinxmen alpha phi alpha 119 delta sigma theta 120 scrollers kappa alpha psi 121 nu gamma alpha 122 Lampados omega psi phi 123 124 jjfe r;':, • • Student Government Officers and Representatives 125 Intramural Athletics Staff 128 The Political Science Club 129 International Relations Club 130 131 132 .-ft 139 140 141 142 143 144 imps . h - , 145 146 147 152 ' i V'• r- -■ r. r 153 autographs 156 autographs 157 autographs 158 autographs 159 autographs 160
